It was the Book of Heaven's Path, and it contained the records of the Vicious that he had subdued.
Vicious had once told him that the other party was the brain and eyes of the other party. Possessing the other party's body was impossible, and the only way to do so was to throw the other party's consciousness into a state of chaos.
Vicious of the Marshlands of the Northern Meadows had lived for tens of thousands of years, so it was nigh impossible for one to muddle his consciousness. However, knowing that the entire island was an artifact crafted by nature, and that the other party intended to use it as a head, the rest was simple.
As long as he enchanted the spirit of the island in advance, and then invited the other party into the trap … a single head with two different wills would naturally result in chaos!
Given Vicious' strength, it wouldn't take too long for him to assimilate those wills, but how could he possibly give them the time and opportunity to do so?
With a tap of his palm, the book in his palm slowly opened. The heart and the finger drawn within immediately flew into the sky.
Rumble!
As soon as it appeared in the air, it exuded an extremely strong Slaughter Qi that enveloped the entire island.
"Y-you … you have other parts of me. Why can't I sense it …"
Panic and disbelief could be heard in the Vicious of the Marshlands of the Northern Meadows. He was no longer as calm as before.
Under normal circumstances, Zhang Xuan should have been able to sense the other parts of his body even before coming into contact with him. This was the connection between their bloodlines … But why didn't he notice it even after entering his lair?
"Sense?"
Zhang Xuan shook his head.
He had used the Book of Heaven's Path to suppress his heart and finger … If the other party was still able to sense the existence of the heavens, wouldn't that mean that the other party had already surpassed the heavens?
What a joke!
"Hu!"
Paying no heed to Zhang Xuan's fear, Zhang Xuan's will and the heart flew out and dived straight into the massive head.
Hualala!
The head could no longer fly steadily in the air and would fall at any moment.
"Let's leave this place first. I'm afraid the battle between them will cause a huge commotion …"
Zhang Xuan turned around and said.
The two of them were fighting for control of the body, so they would definitely be fighting fiercely. They wouldn't be of much help here, and they might even be in danger. It would be better for them to leave first and wait somewhere further away.
"Alright!"
Wu Shi and the others nodded.
Although they did not understand what was going on, the pressure around them had disappeared, and the danger had been resolved.
He hurriedly flew into the distance. More than ten minutes later, he stopped at a place about a hundred kilometers away from the Ghost Cave.
Although the island was huge, it was only the size of a broad bean in his eyes. It hung in the sky, swaying non-stop as if an intense battle was taking place.
"Zhang Shi, this … what's going on?"
Unable to hold it in any longer, Wu Shi turned to look at Zhang Xuan.
Why would the book that Zhang Shi took out contain the will of the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe?
Just what was the relationship between that will and the teacher of the Qingtian Emperor?
Everything was a mystery to them, and they could not understand it.
"The Qingtian Emperor's teacher is a powerful existence who has fought with Kong Shi, and he has already reached the level of Blood Reincarnation. It just so happens that I managed to tame the other half of his body …"
Zhang Xuan explained.
"An existence that fought with Kong Shi?"
"Doesn't that mean he's been alive since ancient times?"
"Blood Rebirth?"
…
The master teachers glanced at one another, and their throats went dry.
The sight before them was simply too inconceivable. No matter how knowledgeable they were, they could hardly believe what they were seeing.
An ancient monster who had survived since ancient times … was tamed by Zhang Shi, and he even wanted to possess the body of the young man before them …
How in the world did he do it?
"I hope that you won't speak of what happened today to anyone else."
Zhang Xuan knew that the crowd would surely react in such a manner if he were to speak of it.
No matter what, Vicious was still an Otherworldly Demon. If word were to spread that he had subdued such a fellow, it would surely affect his standing as a master teacher.
"Don't worry!"
Wu Shi and the others hurriedly nodded.
To be honest, even if they were to speak of what had happened today, they had to find someone to believe them first.
A head that was two to three kilometers long … It was a Blood Reincarnation realm expert who had fought with Kong shi in the past …
Just the thought of it was frightening.
"Zhang Shi … Are you really a Celestial Master Teacher?"
After a moment of silence, Zhang Jiuxiao couldn't help but ask.
The others also turned their gazes over.
They hadn't had the chance to ask about it when the Otherworldly Demon spoke of it previously, but now that Zhang Shi was right before them, they couldn't hold themselves back any longer.
Knowing that the crowd wouldn't let the matter rest if he didn't speak of it, Zhang Xuan didn't bother explaining himself.
Hong long long!
A unique aura emanated from his body.
The faces of Zhang Jiuxiao and the others paled.
Under this aura, there was no way they could resist it at all. It was as if a low-ranked master teacher had met a high-ranked master teacher, and they couldn't help but feel the urge to kneel down and acknowledge the other party as their teacher.
"As expected …"
The crowd clenched their fists tightly, not daring to doubt the other party anymore.
They had only felt such an aura when they saw Kong Shi's sculpture. It was an aura that pressed down on one's soul, leaving them with an indomitable will. It was something that couldn't be faked!
"To actually live in the same era as a Celestial Master Teacher …"
"A Celestial Master Teacher just like Kong Shi, and we have actually gone through so much together …"
Other than Wu Shi, the other master teachers couldn't help but tremble in agitation.
Celestial Master Teachers were only legends, and they didn't even dare to think about it in the past. Who could have thought that they would actually be able to see one with their own eyes?
"It's no wonder he was able to make tens of thousands of master teachers submit to him with his Impartation of Heaven's Will, willingly addressing him as teacher …"
An elder of Mingshi Tang remarked.
He had been wondering why Zhang Xuan possessed such capability to make so many people acknowledge him as half a teacher …
But it turned out that he was just like Kong Shi, a master teacher acknowledged by even the heavens!
Putting aside tens of thousands of master teachers, it wouldn't even be an exaggeration for all of the master teachers on the continent to address him as' teacher '!
In other words …
If he was allowed to continue growing, he might really become the World's Teacher!
"I finally know why I can't surpass him … How can I surpass such a person?"
Zhang Jiuxiao felt a stifling sensation in his chest, and he felt like spurting blood.
All along, he had viewed the young man before him as an imaginary rival, hoping to surpass him one day. But from the looks of it now … it seemed like it was impossible!
It was no wonder he lost so tragically …
There was nothing shameful about losing to a Celestial Master Teacher.
"Even the genius of the Zhang Clan … won't be a match for that young man. However, with the resources of the Zhang Clan, he is able to advance far faster than that young man … If the two of them were to meet, what would the outcome be?"
A thought surfaced in Zhang Jiuxiao's mind.
Even though he had never met the genius of the Zhang Clan with the purest bloodline, he had heard rumors that he was an unparalleled genius as well … He wondered how far he would be from the Celestial Master Teacher.
Would he suffer the same blow as her, unable to continue living on?
"If there's a chance in the future, I should let them meet him …"
Zhang Jiuxiao clenched his fists tightly as he thought.
"I hope that you won't spread the fact that I am a Celestial Master Teacher!"
Ignoring the shock of the crowd, Zhang Xuan turned his gaze to Zhang Xuan once more.
After the incident in the Qingyuan Empire, he knew that there were Otherworldly Demonic Tribe spies among the master teachers. If news of him becoming a Celestial Master Teacher were to leak out, he would be in grave danger.
Even though he possessed the fighting prowess of a Leaving Aperture realm intermediate stage cultivator, he would still be unable to withstand a single blow from a true expert.
Before he gained absolute strength, it would be best for him to maintain a low profile.
"Celestial Master Teachers are known to keep their mouths shut. Rest assured, Zhang Shi, we won't reveal it to you!"
Hall Master Xing and the others said.
"I swear on my identity as a master teacher that I'll be damned if I reveal it to you!"
One of the elders of the Mingshi Tang Academy said.
Seeing that the elder had made his vow, the others quickly spoke up as well.
"I'll be troubling you all then."
Zhang Xuan waved his hand before turning his gaze back to the battlefield.
While the others were unable to see beyond a hundred li in the darkness of the night, Zhang Xuan's Eye of Insight allowed him to see the faces in the distance clearly.
The wills of the two sides clashed with one another, and they seemed to be locked in a stalemate.
Even though the Vicious he had tamed was far weaker than the Vicious of the Marshlands of the Northern Meadows, the latter's will had been thrown into disarray under the assault of the spirit. On top of that, controlling such a huge head took a huge toll on his strength, resulting in a significant decrease in his fighting prowess.
It seems like there's no need to worry anymore …
Heaving a sigh of relief, Zhang Xuan chuckled.
The Vicious he had tamed possessed a heart, which was equivalent to a source of energy. As such, its fighting prowess would only grow stronger and stronger. On the other hand, while the other Vicious possessed a head, it was much weaker in terms of energy supply.
Even though it was able to fight to a draw at the start, it would only grow weaker and weaker until it was eventually devoured by the former.
Just as Zhang Xuan had guessed, an hour later, the battle began to subside.
The ferocious human face gradually began to change.
"Wait here for a moment. I'll head over to take a look!"
Zhang Xuan instructed the crowd before making his way forward.
"Zhang Shi, I'll go with you. At the very least, we'll be able to look out for one another!"
Wu Shi said anxiously.
"There's no need for that. You'll only be a burden to me."
Zhang Xuan waved his hands casually as he swiftly made his way forward.
"…" Wu Shi.
"Master … It's fortunate that I didn't let him down. I've killed him …"
As soon as Zhang Xuan arrived at the island, a voice sounded in his mind. It was the Otherworldly Demon he had tamed.
"Good, good!"
Heaving a sigh of relief, Zhang Xuan nodded in satisfaction.
"Even though I've managed to kill him, I have sustained severe injuries as well. I might need to hibernate for a period of time …"
Vicious' voice sounded once more.
The last time he had devoured a finger, he had already hibernated for a very long period of time. This time, he had devoured a Otherworldly Demon that was even stronger than him.
"Very well … However, given how big you are, how am I supposed to take you away?"
Zhang Xuan blinked his eyes in bewilderment.
The human face before him had a diameter of two to three kilometers. There was no way he could store it in his storage ring. Even the Myriad Anthive Nest, which had grown significantly over the recent period of time, would not be able to store such a huge human face.
"Master, rest assured. I can continue hiding in the Book of Heaven's Path."
Right after those words were spoken, the massive island jolted, and it disappeared into a book.
"This …"
Zhang Xuan's eyebrows shot up in astonishment.
The Book of Heaven's Path actually had such an ability?
Even he was unaware of it!
Hu!
The book fell onto Zhang Xuan's palm. Flipping it open, he saw a human head, a heart, and a finger floating within the book, reminiscent of a three-dimensional painting.
