Chapter 677 – Follow me up the mountain!
Right now, An Zheng had three books in his hands. One of them was on the Mountain Sea Nerve, one was on the Realm of the Jade Void and the other was on the Demon Beast Breaks through the Heavens. Of the three books, up till now, only the Jadefallen Eastwalk had been of no help to An Zheng. The Eastern Traveling Jade Temple recorded the disciples of the Hollow Jade Temple migrating to Mt. Mo when they had no other choice but to leave Mount Kunlun. Most of them reminisced about the former glory of the Hollow Jade Temple.
The Three Purities’ legend was true.
An Zheng sat on his chair and read the books for the entire afternoon, even delaying his cultivation.
That was why An Zheng had confirmed his previous speculation that there were three types of abilities in his left eye. One was the Eye of Nine Incarnations of the good old man, one was the Heaven’s Eyes, and one was the power of the Dao Sect’s ancestor. As for that old ancestor, he held an extremely high position in the Inside the Immortal Palace controlled by the Three Immortal Emperor. Aesult, seventy to eighty-percent of him was the other one of the Three Saint Masters, and he was ranked first.
However, after the Great Immortal War, the Dao Sect had been weakened, and two of the most powerful sects had fallen. The only one who still had a proper legacy was the one at Mount Wudang.
An Zheng put away the book and stretched his limbs.
Walking out of the small temple, An Zheng followed the stone steps that he had cleared these past few days. Many years ago, the last disciples of Hollow Jade Temple lived here, and the number did not exceed 50. They represented the final glory of Hollow Jade Temple, yet they could not survive the carnage of time. In the end, they died.
Perhaps during that period of time, they too wanted to bring glory to the Hollow Jade Temple. Every day, they would follow the stone steps down to find the fated one. However, after the great war between the immortals, the cultivation world was in a state of decline. The number of cultivators in this world had increased to around seventy to eighty, and those with talent in cultivation had all been snatched away by other forces.
One by one, there were fewer people. One could only imagine how the Daoist guarding this mountain gate would feel when he placed the two books behind a plaque.
Going down the stone steps, An Zheng opened up his blood channels as he walked. After fusing the two types of powers, he didn’t need to waste too much time using a forbidden technique like Heavenly Thunder of Nine Suns or even Heavenly Thunder Shower. Speed was extremely important to cultivators.
When two people with similar strength fought, it was obviously the one with the faster speed would have the advantage.
Among all magic tools used by cultivators, there were two that were the rarest. One was a spiritual wisdom magic tool, the second was an offensive magic tool, and the third was an augmentation magic tool. There were many types of support type magic tools. The most lacking one was the speed booster.
Amongst the two hundred Purple-Rank Divine Artifact, none of them could increase speed, and were even rarer than spiritual artefacts. However, because it belonged to a large category, it was ranked after the Spiritual Wisdom items. Speed boosts were originally quite rare. It was said that if an ordinary jade artifact’s speed boosts were made by someone else, it would also be priceless. As for the white products and above, perhaps none of them had ever been seen before in this world.
An Zheng inferred from the solo book that the Oldman Huo gave him and the three books that he had recently obtained that there should not be a single item that was above the White grade required for speed enhancement. All of them should have been destroyed in the battle of the Immortal Mortal Realm, because there weren’t many of them in the first place.
From the records of the Oldman Huo, it could be deduced that the speed of a White grade equipment could increase the speed of cultivators by one percent. It sounded very rare, but to cultivators, a 1% increase in speed was already extremely amazing. If it reached red rank, the speed could be increased to 1/50 of the original speed. And after reaching Golden-Rank, you can increase your speed to one twentieth of the same. If there really was a divine artifact of Purple-Rank, based on his speculations, it could roughly increase the speed of cultivators by ten percent to one fold.
The difference was huge, because the evolution of Purple-Rank Divine Artifact was extremely terrifying.
An Zheng walked down the mountain while thinking about this along the way, and unknowingly arrived at the riverside below the mountain. According to ancient records, this river used to be extremely large and was called the Cang Liuhe. It was once one of the four great rivers of the Central Plains. However, after changing routes, only a small branch remained.
An Zheng stopped in his tracks as he realized that there was a group of people by the river. This Mo Gan Mountain was not a famous mountain, moreover, it was located in the northwest. The traffic here was extremely inconvenient, and almost no one came here. On the other hand, there were more than ten people disembarking from the small boat, and all of them seemed to be cultivators. Fortunately, An Zheng had changed into a black daoist robe, so he was not afraid of anything.
The person in the lead waugged man around thirty years old. He was tall and sturdy, and wore only a single shirt. However, his heart hair had to be exposed through the open buttons of his shirt. Behind him were all the other young men, only a woman, and the rest were all men. The oldest looked to be around twenty years old, while the youngest was around fourteen or fifteen years old.
The young girl looked to be around sixteen to seventeen years old, but she was born witather chubby face. As the group of about 10 people walked up, the leader spoke with a loud voice, but An Zheng could hear him clearly.
“Who are you people? Even though all of you possess talent in cultivation, you have been rejected by all the sects, big and small, countless times right?! Why? Because your talents are lacking! This is an indisputable fact, so I’m not afraid that you won’t listen. But, have you ever heard of such a sentence … A man wins against the heavens! “Talent is fated, but there is nothing that cannot be changed through hard work!”
The man’s eloquence was superb. When he spoke, his speech was controlled, and he stirred up a great deal of motivation.
“Why do I have to find you and take you to this place where birds shit? I’m bringing you guys to find a pure land so that you can peacefully cultivate. Under my guidance, I guarantee that you will havlace in the martial arts world in the future! “I don’t ask for your gold and silver treasures, nor do I ask for you to soar into greatness in the future to repay me. What do I ask for?”
A disciple said loudly, “Master wants to challenge himself!”
“Wrong!”
The bearded man said loudly, “I am challenging the Heavenly Dao!”
He pointed to the sky and said, “Heaven gave you this kind of physique, but I still want to train you to become an expert in the martial arts world. What is this? Was this a challenge? No! This was challenging the Heavenly Dao! I want a battle with Wentian to change the fate of all of you! ”
Some of the disciples kneeled down and kowtowed continuously, “Master, you are our reborn parents!”
Some people kneeled down and kowtowed, and the remaining people were obviously not willing to fall behind. They all knelt down and kowtowed one after another. An Zheng found it funny, thinking that he was most likely a swindler. When the fisherman in the distance saw this scene, he silently uttered two words. Although it was still far, An Zheng could still tell that he was talking about an idiot.
When the bearded man got to the point where he was excited, he waved his arms wildly, “What does the heavens count as? Humans respected the heavens because of their ignorance and fear of the heavens. However, the reason why the Heavens were so high and mighty was because they were not held up by the people themselves? Do you know my name? As you all know, I’ll explain my name to you right now … My surname is Da, and it is also one of the top in the world. This surname is enough to prove my uniqueness. ”
“The second word of my name is Ji. What does it mean? The extreme of my limits is the extreme of my extremes. This Ji means that I will bring you all to the pinnacle of your lives and look down upon all living things! ”
Clap, clap, clap, clap. The disciples began to clap.
“The third word of my name is’ Ba ‘. What was Tyrant? It was overbearing! It was overbearing! It was overbearing! The word ‘tyrant’ was a word that refused to admit defeat. It was a word that was filled with courage and ruthlessness. It was a word that looked down upon the world. No matter how strong the enemy is, they are vulnerable to our tyranny. This was not only a word, but also a belief. As long as you believe in your own tyranny, you will always be successful! ”
“Master is mighty!”
“Master is unparalleled in the world!”
An Zheng felt a little awkward, he recited the name once … Da Jiba?
This was slightly terrifying.
An Zheng saw that it was boring and turned to leave. Coincidentally, someone saw him and pointed: “Look, there is actually a Taoist priest over there, he must be an expert that can’t be hidden from this immortal mountain!”
Immortal Mountain?
When did Mo Qianshan become an immortal mountain?
Then, An Zheng reacted, it was most likely because Sect Master Da had tricked them. He had brought them to sucemote place, and told them that it was an Immortal mountain. These people would be forever thankful, so they would of course give it all to them … Money.
“A reclusive master?”
Da Jiba stared blankly at him for a while, then turned his head around to look at An Zheng. The corner of his mouth twitched slightly, and An Zheng noticed that his mouth had also said a few words silently.
“I’ve seen a ghost. There’s actually someone in this crappy place.”
“I’ll go meet him. You guys just watch.”
He tidied up his clothes and walked over with large strides. He casually greeted him with a fist, “Immortal Elder, may I ask if you are a cultivator that is cultivating in the Immortal Mountain and asking about the path of longevity? My disciples and I will also live in seclusion in this immortal mountain and cultivate in peace. ”
After he finished speaking, he lowered his voice and asked, “Daoist Master, are you a cultivator?”
An Zheng nodded slightly.
Da Jiba said in an even softer voice, “Could it be that there is another great sect here?”
An Zheng shook his head. “I’m the only one left in the sect.”
Da Jiba straightened his back: “Then that’s good …. We don’t havlace to stay anyways. How about we temporarily stay in your sect? “I won’t let you down. I’ll pay you a hundred silver taels a year as rent. I’ll pay you fifty silver taels as deposit first, how about that?”
An Zheng shook his head.
Da Jiba was a little angry as he replied, “Two hundred and two years, it cannot be any more than that.”
An Zheng still shook his head.
Da Jiba was furious: “You Taoist, it’s fine if you live alone, but it’s more lively if we have more people. Did you see that pretty girl? “I admire the Dao Sect the most. If fate allows it, you will understand.”
An Zheng was silent for a moment: “What I mean is, you don’t need to use that much … “5 taels of silver per month will do. Give me 50 taels of silver as deposit and I’ll give you a discount. You can live for a year with 50 taels of silver.”
Da Jiba’s expression immediately eased up, and he fished out a silver note from his sleeves and stuffed it into An Zheng’s hands: “Actually, I don’t have two hundred liang of it for you and me. I really don’t have any money, and these kids are really bitter. I’m kind, so I just want to take them for a walk around the house, and then after they’ve settled down, I’ll go back. I might not even be able to stay a year. ”
An Zheng said: “So you arsychotherapist.”
Da Jiba shook his head repeatedly, “No, no, no. I am a cultivator. Do you know my name? “My name is …”
An Zheng waved his hand, “Forget it, forget it. If you tell me your name and someone else comes, it will be hard for me to introduce you to them. ”
Da Jiba did not mind, he turned around and walked back, belly up, “Did you see that? That Taoist is indeed an expert that can’t be found in seclusion here. His cultivation is heaven defying, easily able to sweep away seventy to eighty percent of the sects. But he didn’t leave because this was an immortal mountain. Although he is the immortal elder, my cultivation is still slightly higher. “Earlier, after a secret competition, the immortal elder was also deeply impressed by my cultivation level. He repeatedly requested for me to stay in the temple so that he could ask for my guidance at any time.”
“I don’t want to, but when we arrive at this immortal mountain, of course we have to start a sect, right? But for your sake, I have to promise. I’ll give you guys an accommodation first. We’ll discuss the matter of expanding the sect in the future. ”
He waved his hand: “Follow me, Da Jiba, up the mountain!”
