With Ye Ming's personal acknowledgment, Ye Chuan Kyoko's anxious heart gradually calmed down.
It couldn't be helped, the matter was too shocking.
"I never thought you would reach..."
Even though her emotions had settled, Ye Chuan Kyoko still felt a sense of daze.
"So, you should believe I have the ability to heal you now!"
Ye Ming smiled, not intending to explain further.
It was enough now.
Ye Chuan Kyoko also had no doubts about the truth of his words.
Because she knew he had no reason to lie to her.
"Great masters of the Xiantian realm possess miraculous abilities, I naturally believe it!"
Looking at the extraordinary young man before her, Ye Chuan Kyoko's face was filled with a smile.
No matter how powerful he was, he was still her future son-in-law. The thought made her feel a little lighter.
"Since that's the case, Auntie, let's discuss whatever you have to say after your health is fully recovered!" Ye Ming said with a smile. "I believe that after you understand my strength, you will have no further concerns!"
This was also one of the reasons why he had revealed his strength.
Ye Ming had a feeling that Ye Chuan Kyoko was not telling Ye Chuan Shagong the truth of the matter because she was afraid of something.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have trained Ye Chuan Shagong in such an extreme way since she was young.
If Ye Ming's guess was correct, she was only doing this to ensure Ye Chuan Shagong had some ability to protect herself when she grew up.
As for her past, before Ye Ming appeared, perhaps she would never have spoken of it until the moment her life force drained away.
And all her actions were those of a mother protecting her child.
Even if the methods were somewhat cold.
"I will tell Shagong."
After hearing Ye Ming's words, Ye Chuan Kyoko's gaze lowered slightly, her thoughts unknown.
However, she then cautioned Ye Ming, "Although you have reached the Xiantian realm now, do not become complacent. There are still those stronger than you!"
"Hmm?"
Ye Ming's heart skipped a beat upon hearing this. In her tone, whether it was his imagination or not, he sensed a trace of unease.
It seemed that even his displayed Xiantian realm strength was not enough to completely alleviate Ye Chuan Kyoko's concerns.
And from their previous conversation, Ye Ming had learned that Ye Chuan Kyoko had been forced into the secluded world.
This meant that even after knowing Ye Ming possessed Xiantian realm strength, there were still existences among those she had encountered back then that instilled fear in her.
"What power is it?"
Ye Ming frowned, pondering silently.
Given his current understanding of the secluded world, there were not many sects with Xiantian realm masters.
Aside from the eight great sects on the eastern and western coasts.
The rest combined would not exceed the count of his fingers.
"It seems I need to deploy those hidden assets in the secluded world. Let me see what exactly happened over twenty years ago!"
Unconsciously, Ye Ming's gaze turned cold.
After all, twenty years ago, although the ancestral edicts were not as strong, it was still not at a point where people from the secluded world could freely enter and exit the outside world.
However, judging by Ye Chuan Kyoko's experience, cultivators had definitely emerged from the secluded world twenty years ago.
Starting from this point, some clues were bound to be found.
And the hidden assets he had controlled during his battle with Gu Tai, the Wu brothers, and the withered old man who intended to abduct Ye Chuan Shagong, could finally be put to use.
This would also be an opportunity for Ye Ming to glean some recent information about the situation in the secluded world from them.
"Auntie! I will now retrieve the life force you have lost."
Ye Ming said.
"Retrieve?"
Ye Chuan Kyoko was puzzled by Ye Ming's choice of words.
"You'll know in a moment!"
Ye Ming sat behind Ye Chuan Kyoko, and as his hands were about to touch her back, he said somewhat awkwardly, "Auntie! Please forgive me for the intrusion!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Chuan Kyoko smiled and said nothing more.
However, when Ye Ming's palms made contact with her back, Ye Chuan Kyoko's body visibly tensed. But in the next second, a warm energy spread within her, and she gradually relaxed.
Unbeknownst to her, in a state of extreme comfort, Ye Chuan Kyoko seemed to have drifted into a dream, falling asleep.
"Reincarnation Power! Condense!"
Silvery white light surged from Ye Ming's palm, carrying an ancient and mysterious aura, and entered Ye Chuan Kyoko's body.
That's right!
To completely heal Ye Chuan Kyoko, Ye Ming had used the power of reincarnation.
This was the second time he had used it.
Coincidentally, the last time he used the power of reincarnation was also to save someone.
And it was the daughter of the person before him.
Fate truly was wondrous.
"Reverse!"
Ye Ming controlled the power of reincarnation within Ye Chuan Kyoko's body, enveloping her heart, which had withered to only a sliver of vitality.
Once the last bit of life force in Ye Chuan Kyoko's current state was completely depleted, even if Ye Ming had arrived then, he might have been powerless.
"It is indeed caused by cultivating the incomplete Yin Devouring Demonic Canon."
As Ye Ming analyzed the withered heart, he finally confirmed his previous guess.
The immortal cultivation technique Ye Chuan Kyoko had practiced before was indeed the Yin Devouring Demonic Canon, known as one of the forbidden arts.
The Yin Devouring Demonic Canon.
According to the Records of Immortal Arts, it was an extremely evil cultivation technique created by the tenth sect master of the Demonic Sect, You Yue.
And those who practiced this technique had to be women. More accurately, they had to be pregnant women already carrying a fetus.
The reason why this cultivation technique was classified as a forbidden art was simple.
It was because pregnant women who practiced this technique would transfer all their innate talent and cultivation to the fetus. After birth, the fetus would grow at an extremely rapid pace.
Their talent would also far surpass that of their peers.
If one only considered this aspect, it was a perfect cultivation technique, so why was it listed as forbidden?
After all, everything had its equivalent.
There existed a balance point between gain and loss.
For example, the child of someone who cultivated this technique gained astonishing talent and strength.
But what about the cultivator herself?
Wasn't the current Ye Chuan Kyoko a testament to this?
Although she only cultivated the incomplete Yin Devouring Demonic Canon, causing her life force to deplete and her aging to accelerate dramatically.
However, even with the complete Yin Devouring Demonic Canon, the fate of most cultivators was tragic.
Those with strong constitutions could recover their cultivation within a few years after giving birth.
But!
That was all.
Further advancement was impossible.
Those with weaker constitutions were not much different from Ye Chuan Kyoko who had cultivated the incomplete technique. At best, their life force would deplete slower, and they could live a few more years.
However, these were not the fundamental reasons for classifying the Yin Devouring Demonic Canon as forbidden.
The true cause stemmed from the tenth sect master of the Demonic Sect who created this technique.
You Yue!
