Chapter 008

"Only those who have established a foundation can teleport?" Wei Wushang asked in confusion.

Honestly, since you don't want me to know, why should I ask? Wei Wushang has never been one to be overly curious, and upon hearing this, he casually replied, "There are many rare occurrences in the cultivation world; should I inquire about everything?"

Thank you very much. Wei Wushang quickly put on the Hidden Breath Pendant.

Deep within the Xinzhishan, it is already extremely dangerous. Not to mention a few Qi Refining stage cultivators, even those at the Foundation Establishment stage would turn pale at the thought. However, the few cultivators before us clearly have a penchant for danger; they are a generation of outstanding individuals who seek out peril even when none exists. They are typical representatives of cultivators, yet none have considered how to escape when faced with formidable beasts. Nevertheless, the mere thought of battling these beasts fills them with excitement, and they gaze eagerly into the dark abyss of the mountain beneath their feet

"Am I not that kind of person?" Wei Wushang said bluntly, "Rest assured, even if I die, your secret will not be exposed." Yet, he still felt a sense of closeness in his heart for Feng An, willing to share such an important matter with him.

Everyone nodded in agreement

"Let's have a match when we have time," Cheng Qing said slowly, looking at Wei Wushang, who was clad in heavy armor.

What is that?" Cheng Guang also turned his head and asked in a puzzled voice

Cheng Yan silently exhaled and flew straight into the depths of Xinzhi Mountain. Seeing her fly so directly, Wei Wushang couldn't help but exclaim, "Truly an old horse knows the way"

"Do you even know how to use words?" Chengqing, who was standing nearby, seemed to sense his sister's anger. With a sidelong glance and a disdainful look, he said gloomily, "This should clearly be a case of being shrewd and calculating!" Misusing idioms is the most detestable thing! The young man thought indignantly to himself.

"Why not find a time to spar together?" Xiutongmu said, touching the sword in his hand.

The remaining three individuals nodded quickly in unison

Same question!

I feel very lost," Feng An said with a downcast head, expressing deep sorrow

Do not worry. Seeing Wei Wushang rubbing his forehead, Feng An comforted him, saying, "If he wanted to harm you, the ancestor would have acted already! He favors talented disciples, and now that he values you, he may even protect you in other situations. Here, take this." Noticing that Wei Wushang was playing with a small wooden token he had handed over, he continued, "This is the Concealment Token. With it, even members of my family will not be able to detect your presence." Here, take this. Noticing that Wei Wushang was playing with a small wooden token he had handed over, he continued, "This is the Concealment Token. With it, even members of my family will not be able to detect your presence."

"Your beloved is also inside," Wei Wushang reminded.

"What do you think about the loser jumping off the Heavenly Cliff?" Wei Wushang continued to provoke.

So, when did she start associating with these individuals

Hehe

"Same question." Wei Wushang silently raised his paw

Upon arriving at the appointed place, Wei Wushang found Xiutong already waiting there. Beside him stood Cheng Yan, smiling, along with two young men who bore a resemblance to each other. The expressions on the faces of the two young men were quite grim, and their eyes flickered with a fierce light, indicating that they were not to be trifled with. Seeing Wei Wushang arrive as invited, Xiutong slowly nodded, and Cheng Yan introduced the two young men, saying, "My younger brothers, Cheng Qing and Cheng Guang." She then introduced Wei Wushang to her two brothers.

However, we do not often come to this place. How about we first experience some training here?" Looking down for a moment, Xiutong eagerly asked.

If it weren't for my sister's meddling, we would have already left, Cheng Guangyin pointed out with a sullen face

"You will know how formidable it is then," Cheng Guang said darkly from the side

"Here, take this thing." With a flip of his hand, he tossed the Fire Thunder Talisman to Feng An, and Wei Wushang sat down to the side, frowning as he said, "What were you secretly winking at me for just now?" With his shifty eyes and furtive demeanor, it was obvious he was up to something.

Seeing that she had already understood, Feng An decided not to say anything further. Instead, they discussed matters of cultivation for half a day before he left her to close herself off in the cave. On the day agreed upon with Xiu Tong and Cheng Yan, Wei Wushang emerged from his seclusion, making sure not to disturb Feng An in her retreat. He transformed into a streak of light and headed towards the place where the two had agreed to meet.

"That is not the case," Feng An shook his head and said, "There are many cultivators who wish to go to the Hanyuan Realm, but there are only a limited number of spots. Therefore, every thirty years, there is a grand competition in the Small Void Realm, and the top thirty can proceed to the Hanyuan Realm. With so many cultivators, if you are not a Foundation Establishment cultivator, heh..."

This ... ... "Cheng Yan seemed to be in a daze, saying blankly, 'That is the most important matter for the sect, everyone must attend, it is the sect's rule.' Speaking of which, when did she fall to the point of being grouped with these peculiar individuals?

Feng An was hit in a sore spot and turned away in anger

Cheng Yan watched the four combative individuals with a storm brewing in their eyes, silently covering her face, feeling that her involvement in this was truly a mistake. Weakly, she said, "We need to go quickly and return quickly. Have you all forgotten that the mountain gate will be opened in a few days?"

I am just afraid of knocking you down, which would cause you to lose face, Wei Wushang said slowly

Feng An had a look on his face that suggested you had guessed correctly

"Nowadays, the old ancestor knows everything. What is the use of saying anything now?" Feng An also sat beside Wei Wushang, wiped his face, and said, "You, my friend, have a scent of Wangshu Spirit Flower on you; I think you have been exposed!" Seeing Wei Wushang's puzzled expression, he sighed and continued, "I forgot to tell you, in the bloodline of my Feng family, there exists a very rare beast bloodline that can detect the scent of spiritual herbs that cultivators have come into contact with."

The gentle and soft face of the female cultivator twisted silently in the shadows for a moment, then she raised her head, revealing a tender smile as she slowly said, "It is my sister's fault, let us hurry and leave." What should I do? I really want to get rid of them!

However, after a while, seeing Wei Wushang only pulling out another talisman, hurriedly preparing it, he could not help but turn his head and ask, "Hey! Do you know why Xiu Tong is entering the mountains at this time?" Seeing Wei Wushang look up, he revealed a proud smile, grabbed a peculiar spirit fruit that was red and white, slowly took a bite, and suddenly a frost formed on his face. Shivering slightly, he then slowly said, "In another twenty years, it will be time to transport to the Hanyuan Realm again. I think Xiu Tong must want to establish his foundation before that, to catch this opportunity for transportation." He then revealed a proud smile, grabbed a peculiar spirit fruit that was red and white, slowly took a bite, and suddenly a frost formed on his face. Shivering slightly, he then slowly said, "In another twenty years, it will be time to transport to the Hanyuan Realm again. I think Xiu Tong must want to establish his foundation before that, to catch this opportunity for transportation."

In a few days, the Five Sects of Xinzhi Mountain will open their gates to recruit disciples," Feng An said with a tone of lament, "only those disorganized and undisciplined fellows from Xiutong would venture into the deep mountains at this time!

What is that

What does it have to do with us

At that moment, Cheng Guang suddenly noticed a sharp gleam in his eyes, and then he charged down towards the mountain beneath his feet. After a long while, a terrifying screech echoed, and the young man rushed back in an instant, holding in his hand a gigantic black rat covered in bone spines. After examining it briefly, a hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes as he said, "It's of no use."

"What does it have to do with us?" Xiutong asked blankly, touching the sword.

"This is more like it," Feng An sighed in relief, then curiously asked, "Aren't you going to ask about my family's bloodline?"

The figure of the female cultivator ahead suddenly trembled, and then began to shiver, as the long sword on her back let out a sudden, furious cry of the sword

Slow down! Wei Wushang suddenly extended her hand to stop the young man from throwing the dead demon beast back. After taking a careful look at the black rat, she scolded, "How can you waste it like this?" Seeing the young man looking at her with a serious expression, she pulled the black rat, swiftly skinned it in the air, and handed the skin to Cheng Guang. Then, she reached into the rat's abdomen and pulled out a gallbladder, tossing it to Cheng Guang, saying, "This is the gallbladder of the Black Wind Rat; if sold outside, it would fetch at least eight mid-grade spirit stones!" Therefore, it is said that uneducated cultivators are the most terrifying!

Neurotic! Wei Wushang did not feel that he was of the same ilk as these neurotics, and thus arrived at such a conclusion

Wei Wushang smiled gently, patted the head of the handsome young man to offer comfort, and then asked, "Are you really not going into the mountains with us?"

You know quite a bit! Shentong has opened his consciousness to search for the magical beasts in the mountains that interest him, clearly not intending to head straight towards the Heart Refining Illusion Array. Upon hearing this, he said with satisfaction, "You are very useful, I like you"

At this moment, Cheng Yan finally turned her head helplessly, facing the excited figures of several individuals whose entire beings were beginning to surge with spiritual energy. Finally, gazing at the distant clouds in the sky, she let out a silent sigh.

"Open the mountain gate?" Cheng Qing slowly turned his head, looking gloomily at his sister.

The same conversation was once again reproduced.

The four individuals fixed their bright gazes upon Cheng Yan

I have one more thing to ask of you. "Feng An said, twisting his fingers, "The matter of my family's bloodline is known to very few people, and you must not disclose it to others. Otherwise, I fear that my Feng family will face great calamity. Such a nose is almost as good as a treasure-hunting rat; there are all kinds of cultivators in the cultivation world, and I am afraid that if anyone finds out, they will immediately come knocking on our door, abducting my kin and forcing them to search for treasures.

In that case, I shall forgive you for your mistake of not using idioms said Chengqing, seemingly emanating a dark aura, in a gloomy tone

Miss Cheng only felt a darkness before her eyes, yet having been in the Enforcement Hall for a long time, she was already familiar with the character of these few individuals. She struggled and ultimately managed to suppress the thought of sending the oddities to their demise with a single sword strike. She forced a smile, deliberately ignoring the four with a gaze full of curiosity, and gently said, "It is getting late; we should hurry and leave."

"Don't say that," Wei Wushang's face twitched for a moment before he asked, "The one who asked me to create the talisman is your family's ancestor, right? What a coincidence this is!"

Wei Wushang nodded thoughtfully

"Same liking." Looking at Wei Wushang forcing out the essence blood of the Black Wind Mouse, Cheng Guang said expressionlessly
