As time passed, after countless attempts, Yu Yuan finally managed to imprint his Primordial Spirit's fluctuations onto one of the Innate Restrictions within the Chaos Bell.

At first glance, it seemed like he had completed one forty-ninth of the process.

But in reality, he probably hadn't even reached one thousandth.

Because he took on the easiest tasks first and imprinted his Primordial Spirit's fluctuations on the most severely damaged Innate Restriction.

The subsequent refining process would only become more difficult.

However, the Curse Killing Power of the Nail-Head Seven Arrows Book was getting stronger.

In just a few days, the numbers on the information panel had multiplied several times.

At the same time, Yu Yuan felt increasingly vigorous, although he consumed a great deal of mana every day to fiercely impact the Chaos Bell, his mana was constantly increasing rapidly.

Because the Curse Killing Power of the Nail-Head Seven Arrows Book wasn't a one-time thing, but continuously applied to his spirit, Qi, soul, intention, and body, gradually eroding his Primordial Spirit and flesh.

This resulted in the most pleasant cultivation experience since Yu Yuan embarked on the path of cultivation.

He didn't have to draw the toxic smoke, nor bake in the flames, nor engage in "artistic creation," nor fight with the Fierce Beasts in the "zoo"...

He didn't have to do anything!

Yet his strength, physical power, mana, Primordial Spirit, and other aspects of his abilities were all rapidly improving!

Being "cursed" for one day amounted to the progress of the bitter cultivation he had done over the past twenty to thirty years!

And this was just the beginning, it would only become more intense!

"Thanks to the Nail-Head Seven Arrows Book given by the Golden Crow Crown Prince!"

He did not know that at this moment, that very Golden Crow Crown Prince was crossing mountains and seas, just to get another glimpse of him in the vast crowd.

Days went by.

Those Saint disciples and experts from various forces were still trapped within the Heavenly Emperor's Secret Capital.

The Immortal Gods sent to the Taiyang Star turned back facing the riotous sea of fire, with only a few daring to venture deep into the sun to investigate.

But they were destined to come back empty-handed.

Yun Zhongzi used the Treasure Hall at the center, laying out several Great Formations spanning a thousand miles across the tundra, concealing all traces.

After doing all this, he sat in the formation, quietly waiting for the enemies to arrive.

He occasionally glanced at that lavish Treasure Hall, his gaze sometimes clear, sometimes complex, but there was no greed in his eyes.

Facing the Innate Treasure like the Chaos Bell, it was impossible for Yun Zhongzi to say he wasn't moved at all.

But being moved didn't mean he would harbor any improper desires.

Although this trip to the Eastern Emperor Heaven had compromised his usual detachment and purity, his inherently kind and pure nature remained unchanged.

The idea of snatching others' treasures was sinful in his view, let alone robbing a relative's treasure—it was utterly heinous, a great rebellion, something he could never do.

Even the thought would never cross his mind.

His most greedy thought about the Chaos Bell was perhaps to borrow it to study and then replicate one based on it.

...

Under the azure sky, a long rainbow streaked across the sky at incredible speed, heading west.

Moments later, it returned from the west and redirected towards the southeast.

The Golden Crow Crown Prince, who traveled upon the rainbow, furrowed his brows tightly and occasionally calculated with his fingers, his urgency and restlessness clearly written on his face.

Relying on the remnant trace of Qi on that strand of hair, he had been searching for more than ten days, but had still not found the hiding place of Qi Zhongjun.

He even suspected that the other party might have already left Eastern Emperor Heaven.

However, on second thought, this possibility seemed small.

Since Eastern Emperor Heaven had appeared for over a month now, the various powers with aspirations towards the Chaos Bell must have received the news.

Apart from sending people to search for treasures, there would definitely be preparations outside to catch anyone coming out.

A cunning and deceitful person like Qi Zhongjun wouldn't overlook this.

So he must be planning to refine the Chaos Bell within Eastern Emperor Heaven first, and then rely on its power over spacetime to easily escape.

But where exactly had he hidden himself?

Time slowly passed by.

Day and night alternated in succession.

The sun set, and the moon rose.

Under the pristine moonlight, the earth was bathed in silvery white.

Tonight was a full moon.

Gazing at the moon, as beautiful as a white jade plate, in the heavenly vault, the Golden Crow Crown Prince's frown gradually eased.

He finally knew where Qi Zhongjun was hiding.

"Such clever tactics! In the past few days, it was always a crescent moon; the moonlight was not apparent, and the moon was hidden without a trace, only revealing itself now!"

As the Golden Crow Crown Prince spoke, his body transformed into a rainbow and shot towards the bright moon.

Utilizing the remaining Qi on that strand of hair, he quickly spotted a luxurious Treasure Hall on the vast frozen tundra.

However, he did not rashly make a move; instead, he used the Sound Transmission Treasure Pearl to summon Bi Fang and Zhu Yan, asking two Demon Gods to hurry over with the altar.

After a short time, both Demon Gods arrived.

They stationed themselves a thousand miles away from the Treasure Hall and three times daily, they worshipped the effigy on the altar with incense, quietly awaiting the final moment.

Finally, after the midday of the twenty-first day, the Golden Crow Crown Prince, unable to wait any longer, took out a small Sangzhi Bow and seven peach branch arrows, handing them to Zhu Yan Demon God, "The time has come, please shoot with these arrows."

Zhu Yan Demon God hesitated slightly, glanced at Bi Fang beside him before taking the Sangzhi Bow and peach branch arrows.

He stood atop the altar, gazing at the effigy nearby, and strung his bow with an arrow.

The Golden Crow Crown Prince instructed, "First, shoot its left eye."

Obeying the command, Zhu Yan Demon God shot an arrow directly at the effigy's left eye, and immediately, crimson blood seeped from the effigy's left eye.

Meanwhile, thousands of miles away, Yu Yuan also suddenly cried out.

His voice carried not so much pain, but rather a sense of excited surprise,

At this moment, he felt his left eye's vision improve drastically, like a myopic person suddenly wearing glasses,

[Suffering from Nail-Head Seven Arrows Book Curse Killing: Qi-Blood +42327, Soul Power +45353, Spirit +33929, Will +35628, Primordial Spirit Strength +522234...]

Such an instant improvement was worth so many hard cultivations!

In a blink, his right eye also received an enhancement.

Followed by his brow, crown of the head...

"Did something happen, Brother Dao?"

Hearing Yu Yuan's cry, Yun Zhongzi hastily stood up and looked towards the Treasure Hall, asking with uncertainty and concern.

Far away, the Golden Crow Crown Prince also heard that cry.

Although the voice sounded robust and not quite as he had anticipated, seeing Yun Zhongzi's genuine concern, he did not suspect anything and continued instructing Zhu Yan to shoot the arrows.

Practicing this Curse Killing Technique harms the natural order and greatly affects the caster's merit and destiny, thus, aside from initially crafting the effigy, he took no part in the actual processes.

"Shoot this arrow at his throat!"

"This arrow, at his Dantian!"

"And the final arrow, at his heart!"

Under the Golden Crow Crown Prince's command, Zhu Yan honestly completed the shooting using the seven peach branch arrows.

"Bang!"

With all seven arrows fired, the effigy was seen bleeding from all seven orifices, lying stiffly atop the altar.

"This is the outcome for those who oppose me!"

At this moment, the Golden Crow Crown Prince felt a triumphant release, his frustration from being publicly robbed of his treasure wiped away, reveling in a sense of sweet revenge.

He glanced at the surprised faces of Bi Fang and Zhu Yan, his pride flickering momentarily, then casually said: "Please wait, Demon Gods. I'll retrieve the Chaos Bell and refine it here, and I'll need you two to protect me."

Before he finished speaking, he noticed the Demon Gods' pupils constrict, their eyes expressing a mixture of astonishment and doubt.

Simultaneously, a deep voice sounded behind him:

"Let's make a deal, can we have that Nail-Head Seven Arrows Book applied once more?"
