“What do I need to pay for such generosity?”
Jiang Changsheng stared at Heng Feng and asked in a teasing tone.
Heng Feng answered, “To be honest, the Xiansheng Grotto-heaven wants to rope you in and let you join the Xiansheng Grotto-heaven. The reason why we offered such conditions was because we are afraid that you would not go, so they have to show their sincerity. Senior, you can follow me to take a look first. If you don’t wish to join the Xiansheng Grotto-heaven, you can bring the
Heaven Seizing True Dragon Technique back to Great Jing.”
He was full of confidence and believed that as long as Jiang Changsheng went to the Xiansheng Grotto-heaven, he would not return. Jiang Changsheng was curious about his confidence.
“Bai Qi, close your eyes.”
Bai Qi, who was listening with relish, trembled and hastily closed her eyes.
Heng Feng was surprised. Close what eyes? Soon after, he met Jiang Changsheng’s golden eyes.
Phantom God’s Eye!
Heng Feng was instantly in a trance and stood rooted on the spot.
Jiang Changsheng asked, “Xiansheng Grotto-heaven sent you here to sincerely invite me?”
Heng Feng replied in a dumbstruck manner, “Yes.”
“Why is Xiansheng Grotto-heaven so confident? Why do they think I won’t come back?”
“Xiansheng Grotto-heaven is located in the center of the continent, and it exists independently in a small world. It contains a large number of martial arts cultivation resources, and Chao Sects are sects supported by Xiansheng Grotto-heaven. Its purpose is to protect this continent. Any martial artist who has been to the Xiansheng Grotto-heaven would want to stay because training in the Xiansheng Grotto-heaven is far better than training outside. Legend has it that the nine dragon veins of the continent were created by the ancestors of Xiansheng Grotto-heaven.”
“Why is Xiansheng Grotto-heaven called a grotto-heaven?”
“I once heard from my master that the grotto-heaven is not as simple as a small world. It also represents the goal of the disciples’ cultivation. As for the specifics, I am not sure.”
As expected, the name Xiansheng Grotto-heaven originated from the Grotto-heaven realm.
Jiang Changsheng was currently equivalent to the someone in the third level of the Grotto-heaven realm. He wondered how many levels there were in the realm.
Heng Feng continued to answer truthfully.
Heng Feng did not know if there were any Universe realm experts in the Xiansheng Grotto-heaven. However, there were many Golden Body realm experts in the Xiansheng Grotto-heaven. Most of them were old antiques who were in seclusion all year round.
Bai Qi’s imagination ran wild as she listened. It was as if she had opened a door to a new world. At the same time, she knew that she was doomed.
It was impossible for her to leave Longqi Temple for the rest of her life. Otherwise, the Demonic Priest would certainly kill her to silence her.
Fortunately, she didn’t have any thoughts of running.
Recently, Jiang Changsheng had taught it the Xuan Nei Overlord Body Technique, which made it very happy.
In essence, the demon beasts in this world also trained in martial arts. The greatest difference between martial arts and the Immortal Dao was the tempering of the body in martial arts. Any moves were executed with the physical body, fierce and direct. The Immortal Dao was even more ethereal. For example, the Cloud Riding Technique was unfathomable and was not as simple as directly releasing spiritual energy. To be precise, the Immortal Dao involved the power of heaven and earth and the Dao of the soul.
In addition, the spiritual energy that Jiang Changsheng absorbed was something that martial artists could not sense, but demon beasts could. Perhaps this was the reason why demon beasts could live longer than martial artists after they stepped into cultivation. However, even though demon beasts could sense it, it was only used to temper their bodies, stimulate their physical bodies, and breed demonic energy. This was the rule of this world and could not be changed. Only Jiang Changsheng could directly transform it into his own with half the effort while being much stronger.
Jiang Changsheng asked for a long time before he brought Heng Feng into the house. In Heng Feng’s mind, Jiang Changsheng had become his master. Naturally, he would listen to his master.
“Write down all the martial arts technique you have learned, word for word,” Jiang Changsheng ordered.
From Heng Feng’s point of view, his master said with a solemn expression, “Today, I will test you. Write down all the martial arts you have learned, word for word.”
Heng Feng nodded. He sat at the table and began to write furiously. Jiang
Changsheng watched silently at the side, constantly handing over paper and helping him grind ink.
This moved Heng Feng. His master rarely cared about him like this.
An hour later, the two of them walked out of the house and came to their previous position. Jiang Changsheng sat down and removed the Phantom God’s Eye and erased that memory.
Heng Feng became clear-headed and said, “Senior, my master is sincere. I hope you will consider it carefully.”
Jiang Changsheng said, “To be honest, I’m worried. After all, Mahayana Dragon Tower, Martial Comprehension Valley, and Star Gathering Tower have given me a bad impression. If your master were to come personally, I would believe it. Go back and ask your master if he’s willing to come here. Even if we can’t reach an agreement, I’m still willing to offer my ultimate technique to trade.”
Heng Feng fell into hesitation.
Bai Qi’s expression became strange as she felt her hair stand on end.
This person was possessed!
He did not know what had happened just now.
Bai Qi suddenly felt that the so-called Xiansheng Grotto-heaven was nothing. Sooner or later, they would be toyed with by the Demonic Priest. She could only hope that Xiansheng Grotto-heaven would not offend the Demonic Priest so that they would not follow in the footsteps of the three Chao Sects.
“Alright.”
Heng Feng could only agree. At the very least, his trip was not in vain. The ultimate technique of the Dao Ancestor of Great Jing was still very valuable.
Just like that, Heng Feng bid farewell and left.
Fortunately, Heng Feng did not have a watch on his hand and it was not close to evening yet.
Jiang Changsheng looked at his departing back and smiled.
He had already obtained the Heaven Seizing True Dragon Technique, so why should he go to the Xiansheng Grotto-heaven?
Jiang Changsheng did not expect that Heng Feng would remember this ultimate technique that only those at the Golden Body realm could learn. Could this kid be the guardian disciple of the Xiansheng Grotto-heaven’s Scripture Depository?
Within an hour, Heng Feng wrote down nine absolute arts, including the Heaven Seizing the True Dragon Technique. Jiang Chang was afraid that he would be exposed, so he stopped him fromm continuing.
Controlling a True God for two hours had consumed a lot of his spiritual energy. It was even more strenuous than killing a Golden Body Realm expert.
Jiang Changsheng closed his eyes and cultivated. Even though he had just reached the seventh level, he still had to cultivate every day and could not slack
Ott.
Bai Qi did not dare to ask and her imagination ran wild. While her thoughts ran wild, she was extremely nervous. She only relaxed when Hua Jianxin and Jiang Jian returned.
A month later.
Jiang Changsheng sensed that the distance between him and Ling Xiao had stopped increasing. It had lasted for two days, which meant that Ling Xiao had arrived at Martial Peak.
He immediately stood up and left on a cloud. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared into the horizon.
Jiang Jian, who was playing with a wooden puppet, was stunned. He did not even know when the wooden puppet in his hand had fallen to the ground.
On the other side.
Halfway up the mountain, Ling Xiao was practicing his sword techniques. On the other side of the mountain range, there was an endless stretch of mountains.
Martial Peak stood upright among the mountains. It was nearly ten thousand feet tall, similar to a sword. There were no mountains connected to it in all directions. Mountain paths surrounded Martial Peak all the way to the top of the mountain. There were many bottomless caves on the peak, and there was a flat space at the top of the mountain that occupied a radius of two miles. There were a few pavilions, but there was no one there.
As he stood on the cliff and trained with his sword while looking down at the magnificent mountains, Ling Xiao’s state of mind had reached a state of clarity. He no longer thought about any moves and instinctively brandished his sword, and a force appeared around him. The force took the form of wind and was fierce and domineering.
“Brother, may I ask if this is Martial Peak?”
Suddenly, a voice interrupted Ling Xiao’s thoughts.
Ling Xiao frowned and answered, “Yes.”
It was a man and a woman. The man was handsome and tall, dressed in white, and he held a sword in his hand. He had a strong aura, and the woman was beautiful and smart. She wore a yellow robe and stared at Ling Xiao as her eyes wandered around. No one knew what she was thinking.
Ling Xiao continued to train his sword and ignored her.
The white-robed man carefully sized him up and praised, “Brother, your sword is pretty good. Could it be the ultimate technique of the former Absolute Sword?”
Ling Xiao stopped and turned around to ask, “How did you know?”
The white-robed man smiled and said, “I know about seventy to eighty percent of the sword techniques in the world. Coincidentally, I know about Absolute Sword’s ultimate technique.”
Ling Xiao frowned and suddenly realized that he could not see through the other party.
The yellow-robed woman smiled and said, “Brother, why don’t we accept him? We are going to establish a sect on Martial Peak, so how can we not have experts?”
The white-robed man nodded and looked at Ling Xiao. “Brother, I see that you’re quite powerful. Why don’t you join us? I’ll make you the Deputy Sect Leader.”
Ling Xiao shook his head and said, “If you wish to establish a sect on Martial
Peak, forget it. My master wants this mountain.”
He was not surprised. When he first arrived, there was already a group of people on the mountain. He sent them away with money and the reputation of Longqi Temple.
“May I ask who your master is?” The white-robed man asked. Ling Xiao answered, “My master is the Dao Ancestor of Great Jing.”
“Are you a disciple of Longqi Temple?”
The yellow-robed woman cried out in surprise. Her eyes brightened as she stared at Ling Xiao, which made him uncomfortable.
Ling Xiao said, “You two, just go down the mountain.”
The white-robed man smiled and said, “Longqi Temple is in the Si Province, thousands of miles away from here. How are you going to occupy the mountain? Are you going to mine some kind of resources here? I am willing to fork out money to buy this mountain.”
Ling Xiao frowned and revealed an impatient expression.
Just then, a figure descended from the sky and landed lightly by Ling Xiao’s side.
The white-robed man’s pupils constricted as he was secretly shocked. He did not sense the other party’s aura at all. Did the other party jump down from the mountain?
The person who just arrived was Jiang Changsheng.
When Ling Xiao saw that it was Jiang Changsheng, he hastily cupped his fists and greeted, “Master.”
Jiang Changsheng nodded. He looked at the white-robed man and said, “I want this mountain. You can go down the mountain. I will move away in a while.”
With that said, he walked down the mountain path with Ling Xiao following behind him.
He wanted to appreciate the scenery of Martial Peak first. After all, it was rare for him to come out.
The white-robed man stood rooted on the spot.
The yellow-robed woman could not help but ask, “Brother, could he be the Dao
Ancestor? What did he say just now? That he wants to move the mountain?”
Jiang Changsheng was so young. How could he be the Dao Ancestor of Great Jing?
He looked younger than the swordsman just now. He looked more like her age.
The white-robed man was also puzzled. He took a deep breath and said, “Let’s go down the mountain and see what he wants to do. Perhaps the disciples of Longqi Temple are also here. It’s not wise to have a conflict with them.”
The siblings walked down the mountain.
Along the way, Jiang Changsheng asked Ling Xiao about his experience during this period of time, and Ling Xiao told him the truth.
An hour later.
When they arrived at the foot of the mountain, Jiang Changsheng began to search for a suitable angle to move the mountain. Ling Xiao followed behind him. He was also curious as to how his master would move a mountain.
The pair of siblings had also left the mountain. Jiang Changsheng was not afraid that they would see him. After all, he did not intend to move the mountain sneakily. He wanted to showcase his strength to the world and obtain a large amount of incense points.
After making a small detour, Jiang Changsheng stopped and walked to a mountain wall. It should be easier to start from here.
Martial Peak occupied an area of six to seven miles in diameter. Coupled with the fact that it was ten thousand feet tall, it could be considered a huge mountain.
The yellow-robed woman could not help but ask, “Hey, you want to move this mountain? Where are your people?”
Jiang Changsheng put the Qilin Horsetail Whisk on his waist and said with a
smile, “It’s just moving a single mountain. Why do I need others?”
The yellow-robed woman rolled her eyes and said, “Even if you rely on just the two of you, you won’t be able to move this whole mountain in your entire life, right?”
