80 Years Of Signing-In At The Cold Palace, I Am Unrivalled

Chapter 179: Ultimate Yin Treasured Skill

The Light of the Homes flickered, but it didn’t look very powerful.

Inside the lamp was a weak flame hanging in front of the Cold Palace, but despite being continuously battered by the elements, it never went out.

What this lamp used as fuel wasn’t oil, but the smoke and fire from the homes of the people living in this world.

The fire from inside the lamp suppressed the Cold Palace and the Land of Extreme Negative Energy. Its influence caused people to subconsciously leave the place when they got close.

Thanks to the Light of the Homes, no one was curious about such a dilapidated courtyard in the huge Imperial Capital.

Stepping in front of the Cold Palace once again, the white cat became excited.

It ran straight into the courtyard wall.

“Compared to traveling the world with you, I still prefer the quiet life here,” the white cat said.

“I also prefer our quiet life here.” Lin Jiufeng nodded.

If it weren’t for the fact that he couldn’t sign in at the Land of Extreme Negative Energy anymore.

Lin Jiufeng would’ve stayed in the Cold Palace forever.

As long as he could become stronger, living in the Cold Palace wasn’t a problem for Lin Jiufeng.

“It’s sad, but everything here has already become so dilapidated…” The white cat ran into the courtyard where Lin Jiufeng used to live.

She then saw the frost jade bed.

Unfortunately, even the frost jade bed couldn’t escape the ruthless passing of time. It had become nothing but a slab of rock. The frost jade aura inside had already vanished.

The once clean courtyard was now overgrown with weeds.

The weeds grew wildly and rampant.

Wherever one’s eyes laid, one would see decay.

Lin Jiufeng slowly walked in and stood in front of the courtyard. With his hands behind his back, he muttered, “A house still needs people to live in it. Only when there are people living in a house will it not decline…”

“Otherwise, even the most exquisite houses will fall into ruins without the maintenance of the living.”

Meow ~

The white cat called out regretfully.

Lin Jiufeng looked in the direction of the two cherry trees that he had planted himself.

Weeds were everywhere.

The cherry trees had long died of old age.

Its roots had become rotten and inundated with weeds.

The two cherry trees that represented both Emperor Yuan and Emperor Ming were gone.

Lin Jiufeng couldn’t help but sigh.

The Cold Palace was still the Cold Palace, but the things inside of it had changed.

He continued to stroll around the deserted Cold Palace.

The garden that Lin Jiufeng had cleaned up previously was now a messy grassland.

The aisle that Lin Jiufeng had cleaned up previously was now filled with vines.

Back then, there were no snakes, insects, rats, or ants in the area.

But now, they were everywhere.

The white cat walked on the wall and jumped into Lin Jiufeng’s arms.

She was no longer interested in the Cold Palace.

“Let’s go and take a look at the Land of Extreme Negative Energy.” Lin Jiufeng turned around and went down, entering the Land of Extreme Negative Energy through the narrow passageway.

In the Land of Extreme Negative Energy, tombs could be seen everywhere.

Those who were killed in action in this place back in the previous era were still here.

And at the moment Lin Jiufeng stepped into the Land of Extreme Negative Energy, a line of words appeared before his eyes.

[You have re-entered the Land of Extreme Negative Energy. Do you wish to Sign in?]

Lin Jiufeng raised his brows. “This is possible too?”

He had once entered the Land of Extreme Negative Energy after going out.

He didn’t receive the sign-in opportunity back then.

But today was different.

“Sign in!” Lin Jiufeng decisively signed in. He knew that he had nothing to lose by signing in.

In addition, he was also curious.

He had become stronger since his return. He wondered—just what kind of reward would he receive after signing in this time?

[Sign-In successful. Received Ultimate Yin Treasured Skill!]

“Ultimate Yin Treasured Skill?” Lin Jiufeng was confused.

Boom!

In the very next moment, a vast stream of information rushed into Lin Jiufeng’s mind.

He immediately understood everything about the Ultimate Yin Treasured Skill.

The Ultimate Yin Treasured Skill was a powerful technique from hell.

Unlike cultivation techniques, treasured skills were stronger and more suitable for the comprehension and usage of cultivators at the Boundless Realm and above.

At the start of cultivation, cultivators practiced mental techniques.

After condensing a Golden Core, one could then practice cultivation techniques.

After cultivation techniques were treasured skills.

Lin Jiufeng’s treasured skill belonged to hell.

Techniques like these might not be called “treasured skills” in the mortal realm, but all of them possessed potential and strength greater than cultivation techniques.

“This is my first treasured skill!” Lin Jiufeng remarked in joy.

After receiving the Ultimate Yin Treasured Skill, his strength could then rise to yet again—another level.

Tonight, Lin Jiufeng didn’t go anywhere.

He sat cross-legged at the entrance of the Land of Extreme Negative Energy and stayed for the night.

He mastered the Ultimate Yin Treasured Skill overnight, allowing his strength to rise.

There were 32 steps in the Boundless Realm. Lin Jiufeng was 7 steps into the realm last night, but after mastering the Ultimate Yin Treasured Skill, he climbed hard and arrived at the 15th step overnight.

This progress alone was enough to prove how precious treasured skills were.

“This Ultimate Yin Treasured Skill isn’t so simple…”

“All of my cultivation techniques can be integrated with the Ultimate Yin Treasured Skill to form a brand-new treasured skill. This is the true power of the Ultimate Yin Treasured Skill.”

Lin Jiufeng was both shocked and surprised when he discovered the Ultimate Yin Treasured Skill’s true capabilities.

Even in hell, the Ultimate Yin Treasured Skill was an extremely rare treasured skill.

It could change the attributes of other cultivation techniques and increase their might at the same time. It was considered to be an overpowered technique.

“I didn’t expect to receive such a huge surprise upon coming to the Land of Extreme Negative Energy again.” Lin Jiufeng stood up and sighed.

“What surprise?” The white cat looked at Lin Jiufeng in confusion.

“Nothing has changed around here, isn’t that a surprise?” Lin Jiufeng responded with a smile.

“What surprise?” The white cat mumbled, confused.

Lin Jiufeng ignored her and walked into the Land of Extreme Negative Energy.

The vast Land of Extreme Negative Energy was buried deep underground and surrounded with complete darkness.

But for Lin Jiufeng who once lived here for decades, traversing the area wasn’t a problem at all.

Lin Jiufeng walked around inside but he didn’t find anything.

He received no other second chance to sign in.

Thus, he shook his head regretfully.

“Is my journey in the Land of Extreme Negative Energy this time going to just end like this?”

Lin Jiufeng frowned.

Lin Jiufeng felt that something was amiss.

But he couldn’t find it.

After strolling around, Lin Jiufeng eventually went out.

But when he walked to the tomb of the Millennium Sword God of the old era, he remembered that his son was still looking for the former’s corpse.

Therefore, Lin Jiufeng dug out the corpse of the Millennium Sword God of the old era and brought it out to give to his son.

After all, he was now Princess Yulin’s subordinate.

Lin Jiufeng had to give him some benefits.

When Lin Jiufeng left the Land of Extreme Negative Energy and arrived in front of the Cold Palace, he saw a figure standing in the distance.

Emperor De!

Yesterday, he was still very weak and fragile.

Today, he looked much better.

Although his face was still pale, he seemed to be in good spirits.

He came alone to the Cold Palace on his own.

“I knew that Big Grand-Uncle would be here, so I came here directly.”

When Emperor De saw Lin Jiufeng, he directly knelt, kowtowed.

He expressed his gratitude to Lin Jiufeng before he explained why he was in the Cold Palace.

Lin Jiufeng waved his sleeve and a breeze swept through a pavilion, cleaning it up.

“Come here and sit down…”

“You’re the Emperor of this dynasty, why are you kneeling?”

“What you are doing is inappropriate.” Lin Jiufeng chided. He seemed somewhat unhappy.

“It’s normal for juniors to kneel and worship their elders,” Emperor De smiled and said, “in the eyes of outsiders, I’m the high and mighty Emperor De, but in front of Big Grand-Uncle, I’m just a useless junior. When something happens, Big Grand-Uncle still has to help me resolve it.”

“If not for Big Grand-Uncle, I would have died long ago.”

Lin Jiufeng looked at Emperor De and asked, “Why have you come to look for me today?”

“Big Grand-Uncle, do you still remember Demon King Jiao from decades ago?”

Emperor De asked.

Lin Jiufeng raised his brows.

Demon King Jiao? How could he not remember?

Back then, it was because of the Heaven Raising Bull that Lin Jiufeng didn’t kill Demon King Jiao. The Heaven Raising Bull’s display of brotherhood made Lin Jiufeng spare Demon King Jiao’s life. But as punishment, he decided to seal and suppress the latter.

“Why? Is there a problem with Demon King Jiao?” Lin Jiufeng asked.
