I Am Loaded with Passive Skills

Chapter 4210: Chapter 1977: River of Intent

The Medicine Ancestor keenly perceived the presence of an anomaly.

It was as if within the blind spot of her vision, there lay hidden an invisible, untouchable figure.

Yes, she could not see this person.

But she could clearly sense that a force was about to be mobilized, causing an abnormal fluctuation in this person’s life diagram.

However...

This was her own internal world of life pattern!

Who had such great skill to reap benefits from the confusion and sneak in here, and was only now detected by her as they were about to make a move?

"Demon Ancestor?"

The name flashed through the Medicine Ancestor’s mind.

Across the world, only a figure at the level of the Demon Ancestor could reach the point of evading the perception of the Zero Ancestral God.

But from what the Medicine Ancestor knew, the abilities the Demon Ancestor grasped did not include this sort of "hidden presence" power!

"An individual who cultivates a special path of stealth, with a Great Path enlightenment level nearing the Zero Ancestral God, whose direct combat strength is far inferior to mine, hence only dares to act from the shadows..."

The Medicine Ancestor instantly categorized the type of person they were dealing with.

She swiftly deduced that the only reason this person managed to get in was by coming along with a Possession Technique related to the Cursed Yin.

After all, the path to enter her internal world of life pattern had only ever been opened once since ancient times.

Thus, it could be inferred that this person had connections with Cursed Yin, as an ally or in a mutually beneficial association, drawn in by Cursed Yin by convenience.

Who could it be?

Apart from the Demon Ancestor, there were not many candidates left, none who could measure up.

Yet, considering a particular precondition, a name did leap to mind:

"Dao Qiongcang!"

In retrospect, Dao Qiongcang should not have been qualified.

But during the Dragon Cave incident, when Bei Huai met him, perhaps out of concern for being outsmarted by Dao Qiongcang, he deliberately leaked a secret to his Ayao.

Dao Qiongcang, it seems, might possess a Super Taoization or Extreme Realm related to the Memory Path.

"If not the Extreme Realm, it must be close to the Extreme Realm!"

The Medicine Ancestor was surprised, "This person, in the Memory Path, truly achieved such accomplishments..."

Hearing is inadequate, seeing is believing.

Judging by the current application of the Great Path alone, merely having Super Taoization in the Memory Path would hardly be sufficient to evade her, the Zero Ancestral God’s, attention.

Moreover, this was her internal world of life pattern, where everything should be under her authority, hence Dao Qiongcang...

A real Extreme Realm talent?

How did another monstrous genius emerge among the Ten High Nobles?

He thrived quietly within the five regions, like a foolish shepherd, letting the pigs grow so fat they became glaringly obvious long after. Besides the eighth pig, there’s this standout one too!

"Buzz!"

The internal world of life pattern suddenly quivered with power.

The Power of Cursed Yin and the Power of Medicine Ancestor, these two mighty forces of possession and being possessed, remained in a deadlock.

The Medicine Ancestor had the upper hand originally, and in the Cursed Yin’s unconscious and fanatical attacks, it was on the verge of being broken down and defeated.

Yet, at the instant the Medicine Ancestor sensed something amiss, the Cursed Yin’s possession power became as though undisciplined soldiers finally met their general.

The attack mode shifted!

Now, it was as if they had gained consciousness, deftly choosing to bypass bifurcation flow gaps in the life diagram’s tributaries to avoid being guided into the Reincarnation River where they would be annihilated.

It also began targeting the "rocks" the Medicine Ancestor employed to block the floods, and at spots where bursting through unequal opposition proved impossible, they’d either detour or combine forces to shatter the rocks.

Just this small change turned the possession battle from a seven-three split in favor of the Medicine Ancestor into a six-four stance.

Medicine Ancestor four!

Cursed Yin six!

The Cursed Yin’s possession force was already obsessively strong.

Having gained consciousness and guidance, its force became all the more unshakable.

So then...

Cursed Yin, did it gain consciousness?

Absolutely impossible, someone was manipulating matters from the shadows, assisting Cursed Yin in its possession!

If the Medicine Ancestor hadn’t determined who was orchestrating things behind the scenes in time, she might’ve truly been caught off guard, clueless as to where to begin curbing Cursed Yin’s sudden change in assault.

Yet she roughly understood that this was Dao Qiongcang’s doing.

The only possible influence over the conscious moment of Cursed Yin’s possession would surely come from the Memory Path nearing the Extreme Realm.

"The problem, it certainly lies in ’memory’!"

Having pinpointed the root cause instantly, a strategy floated up in the Medicine Ancestor’s thoughts, ready to be enacted.

During possession, two forces merge into one.

At this moment, the Medicine Ancestor and Cursed Yin were as one, merely vying for control over who would be the body’s owner.

Under such circumstances, their consciousness shared a boundary; the Medicine Ancestor, having previously infiltrated Cursed Yin’s possession power, upon probing now, naturally could access part of Cursed Yin’s memories.

"As expected!"

Upon conducting this targeted read.

Sure enough, Cursed Yin’s memories, amid a significant jumble, suddenly surged with a batch of ’well-trained’ commands.

Fragmentary and imperceptible ’memory’ adjustments, cut and joined piecemeal, actually formed the fundamental cause of Cursed Yin’s meticulously strategic attack at this critical moment.

"So it truly is Dao Qiongcang..."

"Then, pursue through memory!"

Being united with Cursed Yin, at this moment of enlightenment, the Medicine Ancestor willingly relinquished part of her mind, integrating with Cursed Yin, even accepting the manipulation from the ’memory’ commands.

If you don’t enter the lion’s den, how can you capture the cub?

This might lead to Dao Qiongcang’s influence on her, but with an enemy weak while she stands strong, hidden while she’s in the open, isn’t Dao Qiongcang the one to be afraid?

At crucial junctures, the Medicine Ancestor would never lose a chance in battle due to excessive caution!

And upon just this one attempt, in a particular zone of the life pattern, came a force altering her personal memory, which quickly noticed the anomaly and withdrew the modification immediately.

"Too late!"

The Medicine Ancestor sizzled a sneer, fixing roughly on the position.

This little lamb was indeed too tender, or perhaps overly confident, truly believing she failed to immediately detect the ’memory’ anomaly and required time to seek him out?
