Legend, True Skill Map

Upon seeing the woman in white, Fang Wang immediately accelerated, once again using the White Rainbow Escape Technique. His right hand smoothly sheathed the Azure Lord Sword, then condensed the Heavenly Palace Halberd. Only by holding the Heavenly Palace Halberd could he maximize his sense of security. 😝🍬 69ѕнⓊⓍ.ⓒỖм ✎♩

He turned his head again and found that the woman in white was gone, but he wasn't going to stop.

Ten breaths later.

Have you ever heard of the Great Sage Slaying Heaven?

The white-clad woman's voice came again, but Fang Wang dared not answer, fearing he might fall for her trick, after all, he had read Journey to the West.

Fang Wang glanced over and saw that the woman in white had reappeared behind him, and this time she was even closer to him.

Without saying a word, he turned around and thrust his halberd through the white-clad woman's body. No blood flew out, and her robes were not even torn!

ghost!

No wonder I couldn't sense any presence!

Fang Wang's eyes narrowed, and the Xuan Yang True Fire emerged from his right hand, quickly approaching the woman in white along the halberd shaft, and in the blink of an eye, it burned onto her body.

The Xuan Yang Fire can scorch the soul!

As expected, the woman in white immediately stopped, and the distance between them quickly increased.

The woman in white frowned slightly, then suddenly waved her sleeve, dispelling the Xuan Yang True Fire around her. The next second, she disappeared into the air.

Fang Wang dared not be careless; this guy was elusive and unpredictable, so he had to be careful.

For the rest of the journey, Fang Wang maintained full speed, and the white-clad woman's voice ceased to be heard.

He kept turning around, but he couldn't see the figure of the woman in white.

Half an hour later.

Fang Wang landed by the river. This area was a wasteland with a wide view, making it convenient for him to rest.

He planted the Heavenly Palace Halberd into the soil, looked around, and after a long while, he finally breathed a sigh of relief when he was sure that the woman in white would not appear.

I wonder what happened to the man in black who was being chased earlier.

Fang Wang threw the green snake in his hand to the ground, then drew the Qingjun Sword and stabbed it into the snake's belly.

"ah--"

A soft female cry rang out, and the green snake opened its eyes. Fang Wang immediately grabbed its head with his left hand and forcibly suppressed it with his own spiritual power.

The green snake's demonic aura was astonishing, but not to the point that Fang Wang was afraid of it; otherwise, why would he dare to bring it along?

"Don't kill me...don't kill me...I can take you to find treasure!"

The green snake cried out urgently, its cries enough to soften the hearts of most men, but Fang Wang remained unmoved.

He couldn't be soft-hearted towards a snake, so he tightened his grip on the sword with his left hand, causing the green snake to scream even more miserably in pain.

"I know the place where the Great Sage's Grotto Heaven is located!"

Upon hearing this, Fang Wang stopped what he was doing with his left hand, narrowed his eyes, and asked, "What place of inheritance?"

The Great Sage Cave Heaven once belonged to the Jihao Sect, and may hold the Jihao Sect's legacy.

Even today, Fang Wang still cherishes the Heavenly Divine Body True Skill.

It is said that the Heavenly Gang Sacred Body True Skill is no weaker than the Nine Dragons Divine Transformation Technique, a skill that Zhou Xue did not obtain before her rebirth.

Separated from the mortal realm, Zhou Xue, after ascending to immortality, was unable to return to the lower realm, and many regrets became eternal.

"Many places of inheritance..." the green snake replied, sobbing.

Fang Wang squinted and asked, "Does the Great Sage's Grotto Heaven possess the Heavenly Gang Sacred Body True Skill?"

"The Heavenly Divine Body True Technique? That's the strongest technique of the Extreme Hao Sect! I don't have it, but I've seen a map of it somewhere!"

The green snake answered quickly, fearing that Fang Wang would make a move, since there was still a high-grade magic weapon stuck in its belly.

After much deliberation, Fang Wang decided to give it a chance.

You can definitely find demon cores again, but finding guides is very difficult.

However, he had to be wary of a sneak attack from the green snake.

Fang Wang drew the Azure Lord Sword, then stepped back, taking the Heavenly Palace Halberd with him. The Azure Serpent followed suit, turning over and curling up, its tongue flicking as it looked at Fang Wang. A venomous snake was actually showing a pitiful expression.

Afterwards, Fang Wang retreated to a distance of about five zhang (approximately 10 meters), where he sat down to meditate.

He began to absorb qi, seemingly with his eyes closed, but in reality, his divine sense was constantly focused on the green snake.

If the green snake tries to escape, he will kill it; even if it manages to escape, he will suffer no loss.

Before long, Fang Wang sensed some of the surrounding spiritual energy flowing towards the green snake, indicating that it was healing.

The riverbank fell silent.

Time passed slowly.

The mysterious woman in white disappeared, apparently out of fear of the Xuan Yang True Fire.

Dusk gradually descended.

The stream flows gently, its surface shimmering, with tiny fish swimming within it.

The green snake raised its head, looked at Fang Wang, and flicked its tongue repeatedly. It mustered its courage and asked, "Young master, how did you escape the evil spirit's pursuit?"

Fang Wang didn't even open his eyes, replying, "It was just a small trick. By the way, she repeatedly asked you if you had ever heard of the Great Sage Slaying Heaven. What does that mean?"

Hearing that his tone was no longer filled with murderous intent, the Green Snake secretly breathed a sigh of relief and replied, "This evil spirit is no ordinary being. She is a maidservant of the Great Sage of antiquity. Legend has it that in ancient times, Heaven was unjust, and the gods descended to earth, wreaking havoc on the common people. The Great Sage stepped forward and slew the gods, but he was also plagued by misfortune and eventually perished. The reason she asked this question was to see if the people of later generations remembered this event. If they did, she would give them a way out; if they did not remember, then they would die."

Fang Wang raised an eyebrow slightly. At first, he thought that Zhutian was the name of the Great Sage, but he didn't expect it to be a legend.

"Since you know this legend, why were you captured?"

"Because I've been trapped here for over three hundred years, and she's captured me several times, even if I answer correctly now, it won't make a difference..."

The green snake said aggrievedly, and then it started to complain endlessly: "I was originally a helpless little green snake. One day three hundred years ago, I was carried away by an eagle. But halfway there, the eagle was shot and killed by a cultivator. I fell to the ground and survived. Later, I accidentally crawled into a crack in the ground and came to the Great Sage Cave Heaven in a daze. Three hundred years have passed. I want to get out, but I can't escape no matter what I do. Young master, I know you can't completely trust me, but please believe me. I also want to get out. Only by following you can I have a chance to live."

Fang Wang decided to test it, saying, "For the next month, I will cultivate here. You will help me collect rare and precious materials. If you perform well, I will take you out."

The view from here is wide open, and if an enemy approaches, he can spot them in advance, which is better than being trapped in a blind spot.

Upon hearing this, the green snake cautiously asked, "Could I rest for a few days?"

"certainly."

Upon hearing Fang Wang's reply, the green snake immediately relaxed considerably.

In the following days, the green snake did not disturb Fang Wang and focused on recovering from its injuries.

Six days later, the green snake departed.

Fang Wang's spiritual power had been restored, and he began to walk along the riverbank to see if there were any treasures nearby.

Unfortunately, after traveling dozens of miles without finding any rare or precious materials, he had no choice but to turn back.

Rumbling--

The ground suddenly trembled. Fang Wang looked up at the horizon and could sense the direction from which the tremor was coming from.

This time, he didn't join in the fun, but stayed put to cultivate and wait for the green snake to return.

If the green snake does not return after a month, he will leave on his own and pretend that nothing happened. If the green snake does return, he can use it to search for treasures and inheritances.

As the sun sets and the moon rises, Fang Wang finds himself in the vast天地 (heaven and earth), facing the river as he cultivates, feeling the essence of the sun and moon, the spiritual energy, and the gentle breeze. This state of mind is more comfortable than cultivating in a cave.

Occasionally, cultivators would pass by, but none dared to disturb him. Disciples from various sects were all very cautious within the Great Sage Cave Heaven.

In the blink of an eye.

Half a month later, the Green Snake finally returned.

Fang Wang glanced over and saw it wriggling its snake body as it rushed towards him, his brows furrowing.

There's nothing there!

Is this snake trying to pull some trick?

The green snake quickly came to Fang Wang's side, opened its mouth, and spat out five fist-sized stones of different colors. Finally, it spat out a roll of drawing paper.

Fang Wang raised an eyebrow, finding it quite strange.

"Young master, these stones are rich in spiritual energy and should be considered rare treasures. And this map, it's the map of the Heavenly Gang Sacred Body True Technique. I went through a lot of trouble to find it. Now you can trust me, right?" the green snake said, flicking its tongue.

Fang Wang stared at it and asked, "I almost killed you. Why didn't you take this opportunity to escape and find other cultivators to take you out?"

"We almost killed him. Besides, other cultivators might not be as powerful as you, young master. To escape from that evil spirit, you must be very strong. There are countless evil spirits and terrifying monsters in the Great Sage Cave Heaven. I feel safer following you."

Green Snake's answer was rather sincere, and Fang Wang reluctantly believed it.

He drew his Azure Lord Sword, used the tip to part the map, memorized the details, then activated the Profound Yang Spiritual Power within his body, igniting the Profound Yang True Fire, which flowed down the sword blade onto the map.

The map instantly burst into flames, causing the green snake to exclaim in surprise. Although it didn't understand, it dared not stop it.

Fang Wang did this simply because he was afraid that the Green Snake would play tricks and smear poison on the map.

Smoke rose up, separating Fang Wang and the green snake.

Fang Wang suddenly frowned. Why was this map so hard to burn?

The Xuan Yang True Fire was incredibly fierce; after ten breaths, only one-fifth of the map had been burned, demonstrating the special nature of its material.

Just then, the rising smoke condensed into a human figure, startling Fang Wang so much that he stood up and immediately conjured the Heavenly Palace Halberd. The green snake was also startled and darted away even further than Fang Wang.
