"It was thanks to this Gu King that my cultivation journey advanced so rapidly, allowing me to successfully reach the realm of Profound Mastery despite the scarcity of resources in Nanzhao."
"However, fortune and misfortune are two sides of the same coin. Starting three years ago, not only did I stop receiving any benefits from the Gu King, but I began to suffer its backlash day and night. My Cultivation stagnated, and I even faced the risk of it regressing."
Lady Lan's gaze shifted to Chen Sheng as she continued:
"It wasn't until Chen Sheng came to the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect that I learned the Gu King is actually one of a pair, born of Yin and Yang.
He holds its counterpart, the Yang Gu. A lone Yin cannot create, and a lone Yang cannot thrive. Only through Yin-Yang Convergence, with both Gu united, can our shared affliction be resolved and our powers taken a step further."
