Chapter 2, The True Method of Black Water (6)
After the death of the Iron-Backed Cang Wolf Monster Wang Daoyuan, his Daoist robe could no longer be worn. Su Huan reached out and took down a beast skin pouch hanging from his waist, saying resentfully: "This is nothing to worry about. Disciples of the He Mountain Dao will always carry this Five Yin Pouch, which not only can store magical treasures and personal items, but also can transform flesh and blood. It is indeed a sharp treasure."
The sects at the mountain gate in the Miao region, including the He Mountain Dao, either practice heretical spells or are renowned for their witchcraft techniques. These spells do not harm sentient beings, making it impossible to achieve mastery in them
Jiao Fei was about to refuse when Su Huan chuckled and said, "I saw you looking dazed just now, but I didn't expect you to be so clever. With just that one spell, you managed to defeat Wang Daoyuan, leading to his demise. I can imagine that after his death, he went to the Earth Store Bodhisattva and was quite unwilling, only to be defeated by a mere mist! Who did you learn that spell from? Just now, I noticed you were shrouded in a haze, and I couldn't even discern your roots. I gave you a little push, and unexpectedly, this playful act turned out to be quite a blessing."
Jiao Fei frowned slightly upon seeing the corpse of the black wolf on the ground and said, "This Great Roc Ming Wang tower is, after all, the private property of the Yan Minister's family. We cannot leave this here. However, this black wolf is so enormous; how can we transport it out?"
Therefore, he is very confident that as long as his master is willing, he will certainly be able to help Su Huan rescue her sister
Jiao Fei thought to himself: "This Five Yin Bag is indeed peculiar, resembling a monstrous creature, capable of devouring flesh and blood, absorbing and digesting it. I must ask my master about the origins of this He Mountain Dao."
Su Huan was taken aback to see Jiao Fei effortlessly release the black mist from the Five Yin Bag, making her increasingly puzzled about his origins
Su Huan softly said: "He Mountain Path is one of the three most formidable sects in the Miaojiang region of the Ten Thousand Great Mountains. Their magical treasures are all refined using the life souls and flesh of humans and beasts. The Hunyuan Banner requires the collection of six hundred and sixty-six pairs of male and female beasts, or the life souls of young boys and girls for its refinement. The Wuyin Bag, on the other hand, is forged from the blood and filth of living beings. If these two magical treasures are completely refined, the treasures of ordinary cultivators will immediately be tainted upon contact, unless they have cultivated the Qi of Gangsha to protect their own treasures. My cultivation is still lacking; if it were not for the hard practice of the Xunfeng Whip technique, which allows for flexible changes, I would be unable to avoid the black energy from his Hunyuan Banner. At most, I could hold out for a dozen strikes before he would render my painstakingly trained white-scaled whip useless."
At this moment, the bamboo mat duel had reached its climax, with more than ten individuals consecutively summoned into the imperial palace. The number of extraordinary individuals showcasing their unique abilities was increasing, and the spells being used were becoming more peculiar. However, the wretched beggar Yao Kaishan remained inactive, not taking the stage, clearly considering himself above the others and showing disdain for those previously summoned into the palace.
Su Huan's small mouth slightly parted, clearly showing some interest in Jiao Fei's words. Unlike Jiao Fei, who is a young man just beginning his journey in cultivation, she and her sister are both snake spirits from the vast mountains of Miaojiang. This is why there are sayings about their close ties with the Iron-Backed Canglang Monster King. However, the Su Huan sisters are solely focused on seeking immortality and enlightenment, never harming humans or livestock, nor are they willing to join any of the sects in Miaojiang.
At this moment, Jiao Fei no longer concerns himself with witnessing the commotion. He has come to understand that these so-called extraordinary talents and individuals with special abilities seek worldly wealth and glory precisely because they have no hope of immortality and no access to the path of enlightenment. Even among these individuals, there are those with considerable powers, yet their quest for immortality and the glimpse of true methods has already reached its end.
When she first met Jiao Fei on Zhuque Street, she immediately recognized that this young man was far from ordinary. However, she could not discern the depth of Jiao Fei's background, which is why she deliberately gave him a push. Otherwise, with Su Huan's cultivation, how could she possibly have obtained a few bricks?
The girl was both crying and laughing, and she openly admitted that she had intentionally pushed him just now. Her straightforward temperament unexpectedly made Jiao Fei feel three points more favorable towards her. He couldn't help but smile and said, "It is not very convenient to mention my master's name. I have only been practicing for a few days, and my magical power is indeed shallow, which has caused Miss Su to laugh at me." With Su Huan diverting the topic in this manner, Jiao Fei hesitated for a moment, and out of curiosity about the magical power of the Five Yin Bag, he casually put it away.
Su Huan shook the beast skin pouch, releasing a stream of half-red, half-black energy that enveloped the corpse of the Ironback Wolf, completely absorbing it along with the bloodstains on the ground. The girl casually handed the beast skin pouch to Jiao Fei and said cheerfully: "Although Wang Daoyuan has joined the He Mountain Sect at https://wwwhetushucomcom, he is, after all, of an unusual origin and has not received any superior teachings. He has only mastered this Five Yin Pouch and that Hunyuan Banner. I will take the Hunyuan Banner, and this Five Yin Pouch will belong to you."
After listening to Su Huan's introduction, Jiao Fei secretly infused a surge of energy into the Five Yin Bag using the Black Water True Method. A faint crisp sound echoed as a swirling mass of black energy formed a large vortex before him. Within this vortex of black energy, there seemed to be a hidden entrance. Jiao Fei cautiously peered inside and discovered that apart from a few Daoist robes, the Five Yin Bag contained various items such as gold and silver, fire starters, ropes, a mask, a bag of flour cakes, and other miscellaneous objects.

Jiao Fei cautiously peered inside and discovered that apart from a few Daoist robes, the Five Yin Bag contained various items such as gold and silver, fire starters, ropes, a mask, a bag of flour cakes, and other miscellaneous objects.
Jiao Fei had indeed heard Master Lan Li Dao Ren mention the various methods used by different sects to refine magical treasures. It seemed that Master Lan Li Dao Ren held the Great Wilderness Sect's ability to refine magical treasures in the highest regard, while the other sects were not given much attention. The name He Shan Dao was never mentioned by Master Lan Li Dao Ren to Jiao Fei, and he was unaware of the power of these two magical treasures.
He Mountain Dao is a major sect in the Miao region, and the magical artifacts it refines are extremely peculiar. Su Huan has acquired the Hunyuan Banner, but she needs to find some time to carefully refine it before she can barely use it. This is still due to her fortuitous encounter, having obtained a bit of the refining incantation from He Mountain Dao, otherwise, it would be nearly impossible to wield the Hunyuan Banner. However, Jiao Fei seems to possess no magical power, yet he effortlessly manipulates the Five Yin Bag as if it were a magical artifact he refined himself.
Jiao Fei said: "Miss Su, I believe that Yao Kaishan is not someone we can handle. It would be better for me to return and ask my master if he could intervene. This would certainly provide a much greater chance of rescuing your sister than sneaking behind him and waiting for an opportunity."
The corpse of the Ironback Cangwolf was enveloped by a mass of black energy, as if it were being digested. In just a short while, this black mass had already consumed two to three parts of the Ironback Cangwolf's body. At this rate, within half an hour, it would transform this three-hundred-year-old monster, cultivated through arduous training, into a mass of essence blood to nourish the Five Yin Bag
Jiao Fei was unaware of his own peculiarities. He casually collected the Five Yin Bag and, noticing that Su Huan was still occasionally observing the bamboo mat duel on Zhuque Street, he contemplated for a moment before taking his leave once again
These individuals are not of the same ilk as him. Although Jiao Fei has only been apprenticed to Master Lan Li Dao Ren for a little over a month, he has already discerned that his master and these extraordinary talents summoned from all directions by the imperial edict of the Li family are not on the same path.
