Chapter 63 Surprises One After Another

  Second update! Red ticket! The new book list is about to be exploded by No. 11, please brothers hurry up and support!

  ——

  Mu Kui's cave was only about a hundred feet in circumference. Inside, it was dry and cool, with some simple stone tables and chairs arranged sparsely, looking extremely plain.

  As soon as he entered the cave, Chen Tang felt a strong spiritual energy fluctuation and quickly found its source.

  On the wall corner of the cave, a futon was placed. Chen Xuan stretched out his hand to lift up the futon and saw a piece of jade stone quietly lying in the rock crevice, emitting a faint misty light. It was about one foot long and as thick as an arm, with dense and pure spiritual energy emanating from it, which made people feel refreshed and delighted after just one breath.

  "This is the top-grade spiritual vein you were talking about? No wonder that tiger demon came to seize your cave, the spiritual energy here is more than ten times denser than outside, it's undoubtedly an excellent place for cultivation."

  Chen Xiao exclaimed in surprise, this was his first time seeing the appearance of a spiritual vein. However, compared to the Spiritual Spring he saw at the Sword Immortal's abode, this spiritual vein was slightly inferior.

  Mu Kui stood to one side, his heart racing with anxiety. He had seen treasure-hunting murders before and was worried that Chen Tang would be overcome with greed and kill him too.

  With a thud.

  Mu Kui became more and more afraid, no longer daring to hesitate. He immediately knelt down on the ground and said loudly: "I am willing to acknowledge my predecessor as my master, please accept me by your side. Mu Kui's lifelong wish is to serve you left and right. If I betray you, I will surely suffer the heavy punishment of heaven and be unable to reincarnate for eternity!"

  Chen Xiao knew that this guy was afraid of being killed and robbed, and he knew that refusing his words would make him uneasy all day long, and something unexpected might happen.

  "Alright, I can accept your request, but first let me declare one thing, I won't take you away from here." Chen thought for a moment before nodding and saying.

  "Senior, Mu Kui is truly following you wholeheartedly. I won't let junior distract you from taking care of me, please fulfill your promise." Mu Kui felt slightly at ease in his heart, but thinking of Chen Tai's latter words, he couldn't help feeling a bit resentful, secretly wondering if the senior was afraid that he would drag him down?

  Chen Xiao shook his head and said: "The decision I made will not be changed again. If you insist on this, then..."

  Before Chen Xu finished speaking, Mu Kui hastily said: "Senior, please calm down, let's do as you said."

  Chen Tang nodded.

  Mu Kui chatted with Chen Tai for a while, intending to inquire about Chen Tai's background, but seeing Chen Tai's distracted expression, he immediately retreated in a very obedient manner.

  This cave was silently 'occupied' by Chen Tang, and Mu Kui didn't feel anything, after all, Chen Tang hadn't made a move to kill him, which already made Mu Kui extremely grateful.

  ……

  Sigh~

  Chen Xiao sat down on the futon with a plop, and the extremely high-quality spiritual energy emanating from the pure and thick spiritual veins below made him involuntarily let out a comfortable sigh.

  "It's not bad here." Ji Yu appeared out of thin air, holding a young Pixiu.

  Chen Yao was already used to Ji Yu's sudden appearances and disappearances, knowing that he would only come out when no one else was around.

  Roar!

  The whole body was covered in white fur, only the size of a fist, and the Pixiu's eyes lit up, letting out a loud roar towards Chen Tai's location, it was clear that he had discovered that top-grade spiritual vein.

  Chen Xiao saw the little guy's adorable appearance and couldn't help but want to reach out and hug it, but was flatly rejected by Ji Yu: "Your current strength is not enough to subdue the White Arrow, you'll only scare it away."

  "White Hawk?" Chen Tai asked in surprise.

  "Hmm, it's called Bai Xiang, already has spiritual intelligence, born with a spiritual body, but as the legendary auspicious beast since ancient times, it can never transform into human form in its lifetime."

  "This is the way of heaven, to take from those who have too much and give to those who are lacking. If a Pixiu were to shed its skin and take on human form through cultivation, relying on its accumulated aura and terrifying methods, it would likely have already become an unparalleled existence."

  "Is it that losses are made up for by excess, and deficiencies are supplemented?" Chen Xuan was bewildered and couldn't stop thinking about it. The Way of Heaven is profound and mysterious, impossible to grasp. With his current level of understanding, how could he comprehend its meaning?

  "What are you going to do? Are you going to stay here forever?" Ji Yu changed the subject.

  Mentioning the matter at hand, Chen Ting's expression turned serious and he nodded: "Yes, I heard from Mu Kui that in the depths of the southern barbarian mountains, there are seven powerful demon kings lurking, like a copper wall and iron fortress, firmly guarding the only path to the outside world. So I think it's best to stay here for now, until my strength breaks through the Violet Mansion boundary, before leaving this place."

  Just now, Mu Kui was trying to probe Chen Tang's identity, but Chen Tang diverted the topic with a few words, revealing many secrets and also giving Chen Tang some understanding of this vast mountainous region.

  The Nanman mountain range spans a hundred thousand miles, with its core territory occupying fifty thousand miles. Within this vast expanse, ferocious beasts run amok, among which the Seven Great Demon Kings are the most notorious.

  The seven great demon kings are the Purple Copper Mountain Thunder Eagle King, the Cang Water Cave Black Ape King, the Moon Lake Ink Python King, the Luoxia Forest Green Snake King, the Xiao Yue Ridge Kunpeng King, the Leng Xing Mountain Qing Qiu Fox King, and a mysterious and elusive Xu Jing Old Turtle King.

  These seven demon kings have varying levels of strength, with the weakest being the Black Ape King of Kuangshui Cave, who is only at the Purple Mansion realm, while the strongest are the Kunpeng King of Xiaoyue Ridge and the Qingqiu Fox King, whose cultivation base is almost unknown to any of the demons.

  Of course, the most mysterious is still the old turtle king Xuan Jing. It is said that this old turtle has lived for tens of thousands of years and possesses a thread of blood from the ancient divine beast, the Xuanwu. Its strength is unfathomable.

  He is said to be mysterious because almost no one has seen him take action, and his whereabouts are elusive and unpredictable. Unless he himself wants to, no one can see him.

  However, the seven great demon kings, regardless of their strength or weakness, are all powerful existences that Chen Xiao cannot contend with at present. It is precisely because of this that he does not dare to leave Baoyue Mountain easily, using these seven great demon kings to encircle the periphery of Handan Mountain's belly. If he were to force his way through, he would only end up dying miserably under their sharp teeth.

  "It's also good, this southern barbarian deep mountain, although it is said that the beast is rampant and people are rare, but the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is extremely rich, and many spiritual grasses and trees, heavenly materials and earthly treasures are growing. It seems like a natural treasure land, and practicing here is also very good." Ji Yu nodded and said.

  After chatting for a while, Ji Yu reminded Chen Tang to cultivate well and not waste his time. Then, he disappeared with the young Qilin cub in his arms.

  Splash!

  Just as Ji Yu's feet had just left, Chen Xiao immediately took out the jade slips from the storage ring that he had obtained from the Sword Immortal's mansion and arranged them one by one on the ground.

  These twenty jade slips were personally selected by Ji Yu from among the tens of thousands of jade slips in the grand hall, and are naturally extremely precious.

  Among them, thirteen are ritual jade strips and seven are other jade slips.

  One formula is vast and profound, as vast as the sea of smoke, requiring a lot of time to study and comprehend, it's extremely difficult to achieve results in a short period.

  Chen Yao's gaze fell on the other seven jade slips.

  The Lianqi Gongfa "Binghe Jue" records the cultivation method of the nine realms of the Zifu boundary, and the true yuan cultivated by it is like a rolling tide filled with ice crystals, not only long and lasting, but also sharp and sharp. It has an extremely mysterious effect.

  "I have the Chen family's ancestral 'Zi Xuan Gong' eighteen layers, which only records the cultivation methods of post-heavenly nine layers and pre-heavenly nine layers, but does not include the Zi Fu boundary. This 'Bing He Quan' has solved my pressing problem."

  She hastily flipped through the "Bing He Secret", looking at the ingenious and unparalleled refining technique on it, Chen Xiao's heart suddenly surged with gratitude, thinking to herself: "Season Yu must have considered this point, that's why he chose this 'Bing He Secret' for me. I must cultivate it well, so as not to disappoint his expectations!"

  The second jade slip - "Dà Yǎn Fēng Xíng Jiàn", taking the meaning of 'the number of Dà Yǎn is fifty, its use is forty-nine'.

  The swordsmanship is as fast as lightning, changing endlessly, like the wind that whizzes between heaven and earth. The sword comes out like a raging storm, destroying everything in its path, while defense becomes impenetrable... At the same time, when the swordsmanship reaches its peak, the sword comes out with the speed of a strong gust, the gentleness of a soft breeze, the ferocity of a fierce gale, the wildness of a hurricane, and the sharpness of a long-lasting wind... Endless changes make it impossible to defend against.

  Based on the characteristics of the wind, "Dà Yǎn Fēng Xíng Jiàn" is divided into six moves: Gale Shadow, Slanting Rain, Fierce Wind Like Night, Crazy Wind Like Tide, Long Wind Breaking Waves, and Whirlwind Shattering Void.

  "Awesome! The first four moves of the 'Dà Yǎn Fēng Xíng Jiàn' have already reached the level of unity between heaven and man. What's even more unimaginable is that those two moves, 'Cháng Fēng Pò Làng' and 'Xiào Fēng Suì Xū', actually possess the divine charm of the 'Mystical Meaning of the Tao'!"

  Chen Yu's eyes sparkled with excitement as he watched, his gaze filled with a kaleidoscope of colors.

  It is well known that all skills are divided into foundation, subtlety and unity of heaven and man, and above them is the meaning of Tao!

  At this boundary, whether it's swordsmanship, knife techniques, spear techniques, footwork, fist techniques, or even flower arrangement, painting, music and other skills, they all contain the practitioner's understanding of the Heavenly Way. When displayed, their power is more than a hundred times that of the unity of heaven and man, yet despite being only one step apart, there is an enormous gap between them like clouds and mud!

  Like swordsmanship, once you grasp the meaning of the way, you can condense 'sword intent', and its power is fundamentally different from ordinary sword techniques.

  "Ah! This 'Great Evolution Wind and Cloud Sword' is probably a treasured existence in that grand hall of relics, Senior Ji Yu has been too kind to me..."

  Chen Xuan took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed the excitement in his heart, continuing to look at the next jade slip.

  Body technique - "Divine Wind Feather Escape Method", using wind as wings, proudly whistling through the nine heavens!

  This "Shen Feng Hua Yu Dun Fa" was also incredibly mysterious, after the surprise earlier, Chen Xiao had already become somewhat numb, but seeing this technique that could allow cultivators to ride the clouds and drive the fog, roaming freely in the sky, he still couldn't hide his excitement, it took him a good while to calm down.

  "Phantom", "Shaking God", and "Massacre God" are three jade slips that record the method of attacking the soul, and according to Chen Tai's speculation, these three jade slips are obviously a whole, from the lowest level of "Phantom" to the highest level of "Massacre God".

  Similarly, these three divine soul attack techniques are what Chen Xiao urgently needs. As far as he knows, the cultivation method of divine soul's observational thinking is extremely rare, and although this divine soul attacking technique cannot compare to the preciousness of observational thinking, it is also an extremely precious existence that ordinary powers fundamentally cannot possess.

  When Chen's gaze fell on the last jade slip, he was taken aback. "The Introspection of No Traces"?

  Is it a method of using true yuan?

  With a quick glance, Chen Xi was shocked wave after wave, his almost numb heart beating again in a rather unimpressive manner.
