Here is the translation of your text:
"No need, let's rest for an hour or two before heading out," Fang Yuan waved his hand. He had already killed a lot along the way, and had just slaughtered the catfish demon here to eat its flesh. It was already midnight now.
Soon, it would be dawn, just the right time to cultivate the "Yin-Yang Reversal Technique," and also let Old Qin rest. After all, his cultivation had been crippled, and now he was just a mortal, unable to endure much.
"Thank you, Lord Fang, for your care..." Qin Hai could tell that Fang Yuan was looking out for him and, with a face full of gratitude, withdrew.
Compared to Lord Chongwu, it was definitely much more comfortable under Lord Fang...
...
Most of the people had gone into the camp to rest, and Fang Yuan came to a spot with a broad view. He sat cross-legged on a large rock and looked toward the east.
Perhaps because the catfish demon had been suppressed for so long and couldn't do much harm, Fang Yuan only received 3,000 points of merit after killing it.
However, along the way, he had killed quite a lot, carefully searching inch by inch. With all the miscellaneous points added together, his merit value had been pushed up to 13,000.
Fang Yuan also glanced at the blood bar below in his field of vision.
From left to right, it was completely filled. The blood bar had already reached its maximum even before the battle began.
"I wonder if my current health can withstand a nuclear explosion..." Fang Yuan thought. He estimated that it should be possible, but the premise would be to weaken the nuclear bomb first.
"Well, now it's just a matter of waiting..."
Fang Yuan sat like an old monk in deep meditation, his eyes slightly closed.
At some point, he saw a faint, soft fish-belly white appear in the far-off sky, as if a giant beast, still sleeping, was quietly opening one drowsy eye.
"The opportunity has come!" Without hesitation, Fang Yuan began his cultivation.
[Consuming 1,500 merit points, you visualize the first light of dawn, and successfully grasp the key to the Yin Spirit leaving the body, which is to use your soul to capture a strand of newly-born Yang energy for your own use.]
[This process will place the soul in a state of extreme cold and heat, with familiar yin energy on one side and the unfamiliar, scorching Yang force on the other. If not careful, the soul could scatter.]
[This step is best performed with the guidance and protection of a master, but you are prepared to practice alone.]
Hmm? Can we pause for a second? I don't think I'm ready yet!
With the words of the "Good Man Sutra," Fang Yuan saw his health bar start to tremble.
The fluctuation was even bigger than when he used "Slash," since an attack on the soul was equivalent to real damage.
Currently, Fang Yuan had no good means of defense, and the Earth Sword could only defend against external attacks.
"Good thing I have the Fourth Calamity, or these techniques would really cost me my life."
Fang Yuan sighed. He wasn't worried, though, because he had seen this kind of scene several times already. His health bar being stretched like this and losing a few inches was child's play.
[Consuming 1,500 merit points, you successfully draw in the Yang energy, and you now have the basic ability to project your Yin Spirit out of your body. You can also see living souls and ghosts.]
["Yin-Yang Reversal Technique" has been learned.]
Has it been learned...
A thought flashed in Fang Yuan's mind, and the next moment, he felt his body rise.
He felt completely weightless, far lighter than when using the "Flying Boat" technique!
Sensing this, Fang Yuan looked down and saw that his body was sitting motionless below.
"So this is the Yin Spirit leaving the body? It feels strange, light as if I could fly off the Earth in an instant, but my senses are greatly weakened..."
As Fang Yuan was pondering, a strong mountain breeze blew through, and in his Yin Spirit state, he felt like a kite, swaying and almost losing control.
He quickly gave up and merged back with his body.
The heavy feeling returned from his limbs and bones, but his perception also became sharper.
"I can't even withstand a gust of wind. If Ye Chuan was like this before, he must have just begun his training?"
"Really courageous, daring to use the Yin Spirit to kill after only reaching this level..."
Fang Yuan had previously thought it was absurd, and now, having practiced the technique himself, he found it even more unbelievable. How could anyone dare to do such a thing?
This technique was different from "Slash." When entering, there was no combat power at all, but it was written that one could see living souls and ghosts.
Living souls referred to the souls of the living, but ghosts...
Fang Yuan had been in this world for some time now. He had seen countless demons, but he had never seen a ghost.
Strange indeed.
Let's continue.
Fang Yuan focused again and continued to cultivate.
[You have successfully drawn Yang energy into your body. Now, try to pull that strand of Yang energy closer to your Yin Spirit to achieve the balance of Yin and Yang.]
This step was clearly very dangerous, and Fang Yuan's health bar began to plummet.
But before it could drop much further, another line of text appeared:
[Consuming 4,000 merit points, "Yin-Yang Reversal Technique" has reached the stage of Yin-Yang Balance. Your Yin Spirit has been enhanced, and you can now enter other people's dreams and sense their primordial energy fluctuations.]
"This technique doesn't seem to break into small or large stages, but rather progresses in realms, one after another..."
Fang Yuan waved his hand, wondering if he could continue.
[You begin to intertwine and merge the Yin and Yang energies within your Yin Spirit. This requires immense willpower and delicate control over your spirit. The risks are self-evident, but you've signed up without reading the full terms, so all consequences are your own responsibility.]
[Consuming 7,000 merit points, you have successfully merged the two energies.]
["Yin-Yang Reversal Technique" has reached the stage of Yin-Yang Fusion. Your Yin Spirit has been further enhanced. You can now interact with physical objects in the real world and influence the thoughts of others, as well as summon the souls of recently deceased people.]
Fang Yuan's accumulated merit points were again exhausted, but he now felt several new and strange abilities at his disposal!
"Ha, this is brilliant! This technique doesn't just allow the Yin Spirit to leave the body, it can do so much more!"
Fang Yuan was quite excited. He immediately tried the Yin Spirit leaving the body for the second time. This time, although his body still felt light, it was much heavier than before, and a gust of wind couldn't blow him away.
In addition, all the sensory perceptions of his Yin Spirit had been enhanced.
Fang Yuan looked in the direction of the camp, and aside from seeing the names above everyone's heads, he could now see their souls in clusters.
One perspective was already unbelievable enough; now it was double perspective... It was as if he was using a cheat code!
Oh, and there's that ability to enter dreams... Perfect time to try it out.
Thinking for a moment, Fang Yuan's Yin Spirit floated in the direction of the camp.
