"This Tiger Transformation Technique of yours is quite an interesting one."
Chung Shen-soo was too lazy to care whether Hu San had a grudge against someone or was hired to kill him. He only asked about the things he was concerned about.
"This is a tiger-taming technique that was passed down from my ancestors. I can offer it to you, milord."
Hu San repeatedly kowtowed and offered the white tiger skin.
On the inside of the white tiger skin, there was a layer of densely packed small words embroidered with needle and thread. The beginning of the words "Tiger-Taming Technique"!
This technique came from the "Ten Thousand Techniques". It was one of the 872 techniques in the outer sanctum. It required the practitioner to first perform a ritual, maintain a fast, and obtain some kind of blessing from the heavens and the earth to get close to tigers.
Then, they would enter the tiger's den and steal the tiger cubs. After raising them from young, they would be able to control them and use them to harm people.
When cultivated to a high level, they would be able to skin the tigers and refine them into a tiger skin. After wearing it, they would be able to transform into a ferocious tiger.
In theory, the more ferocious the tiger that was refined, the stronger the tiger that was transformed into would be.
Using a human body to control the strength of a ferocious tiger, even if Hu San was just a Postliminary Realm mortal, he might still be able to fight against a Postliminary Realm master.
Of course, most ordinary tigers were killed by Postliminary Realm masters.
However, if one could find some different species, or even a tiger spirit, and refine it into a tiger skin, after wearing it, one might be able to use it to cultivate supernatural powers.
It was just that this level of heterogeneity was far inferior to White Bone's supernatural powers.
Chung Shen-soo only took a glance and understood the pros and cons of this tiger-taming technique. He threw the tiger skin back to Hu San. "This tiger skin was passed down from your ancestors. I am too lazy to accept it. I am also too lazy to care about your grudges with others. Today, I only want to ask you two things. First, is there a gathering place for cultivators nearby? Second, is there a large group of ferocious tigers, or tiger spirits and snake spirits?"
The latter was naturally to find the possible location of the ferocious tigers and dragons.
Hu San was stunned at first, but then he suddenly realized that these two questions were the key to whether he would live or die today. He quickly rummaged through his mind and answered after a moment, "I once heard from another cultivator that there is a market in Mount Mandang. It's just that I'm too weak to enter … As for the Tiger Spirit and the Snake Demon, my family has always avoided them, not daring to provoke them. But on the Black Rock Mountain, there is a nest of fierce tigers."
Chung Shen-soo nodded. "That's true … Your clan's Tiger Slaying Art. If you encounter a tiger demon, your entire clan might be annihilated … Fine, you can go."
This person could be killed or not, he would just treat it as chasing away a fly.
"My lord."
Hu San stood up and took two steps, then suddenly turned back and kowtowed on the ground. His forehead was full of blood. "I am willing to serve you and be your slave …"
"Haha, you're just greedy for my Dao technique. You have evil intentions …"
Chung Shen-soo laughed. "If you don't leave, I'll beat you to death."
Frightened by him like this, Hu San scrambled away and disappeared without a trace in a flash.
Seeing this, Chung Shen-soo revealed a look of contemplation.
He had seen those youths secretly kill each other for the sake of an illusory fight for a place, and this person begging bitterly. He suddenly felt that he had a better understanding of the complex relationship between people's hearts and cultivation.
It made sense that after a cultivator had a breakthrough, they would leave the mountain to travel.
After a moment of contemplation, his expression became calm. "The Ten Thousand Arts?"
This was also a Celestial Cultivation sect located in Luozhou. It had once been prominent and was known to have a collection of Ten Thousand Arts.
However, it later declined, and the Dao techniques in the sect were spread. It was no longer as famous as before.
In Luozhou, its status was far below that of the Mirrorcloud Sect. After all, they had a Primal Core adept.
As for the Ten Thousand Arts, it was said that they had lost all their books and treasures. Now, there were only a few of them left. They did not even have any Divine Powers. Their legacy might have been cut off long ago.
"But it serves them right. If the eight hundred techniques of the outer sect were all trash like the Tiger Taming Technique, then even a thousand or a hundred techniques wouldn't be able to compare to a single Ten Thousand Beasts Art … Even at the peak of the Ten Thousand Arts Sect, they were far from the Taishang Dragon Tiger Sect. Comparing these two is unfair to the Ten Thousand Arts Sect.
Chung Shen-soo thought about it and waved his sleeve.
A breeze appeared and circled around him, causing his feet to leave the ground and fly into the air.
Since he had already received the news, he was prepared to make a trip to Mount Mandang.
…
Mount Mandang.
This mountain was undulating and was no more than a hundred miles long. However, the spiritual energy was concentrated, and it was easier for animals to gain spiritual intelligence and cultivate into beasts.
Therefore, although the scenery was excellent, few people came here. It was famous for being dangerous. Even herb gatherers and woodcutters were reluctant to enter.
Chung Shen-soo looked down from the sky and saw that a place was strange. It was shrouded in white fog, and he could vaguely see the shape of some buildings. He floated down.
As he entered the white fog, he immediately felt a force of resistance. It was a technique that could confuse the soul. It was an array.
However, this array would only repel ordinary people. It would not reject any cultivator who cultivated Dharma.
Chung Shen-soo's Dragon-Tiger Dharma moved slightly and pushed the fog away. He saw a market.
This market was similar to the mortal world. There were cultivators setting up stalls, but there were very few people. Most of them were hiding.
Chung Shen-soo did as the Romans do. He wiped his face and immediately changed his face.
He had a lot of money. As he walked in the market, he actually felt a little proud of himself.
"I've wronged Zhang Taiyi. The pile of Yellow Emperor Talisman money he left behind has a lot of purchasing power …"
Chung Shen-soo came in front of a stall. There were some materials that could be used to cultivate Dharma weapons. A few pieces of iron essence were only three Yellow Emperor Talisman money.
Yellow Emperor Talisman money was actually a talisman. When it was used, it would be a Dharma spell.
Because it was common, the standard seal was the 'Essence Recovery Technique'. It was equivalent to a pure Qi of Heaven and Earth. If a cultivator used the Yellow Emperor Talisman money, they could recover part of their Dharma power. Whether it was used for fighting, crafting weapons, or even activating arrays, it was very effective. It was very popular in the market.
"Is there anything you want, Fellow Daoist? Other than materials, I have half a Daoist book … "
The stall owner was wearing a bamboo hat. When he saw Chung Shen-soo stop, his voice became enthusiastic.
"Do you have Righteous Qi to exchange?"
Chung Shen-soo really did not want these things, so he casually asked.
"I … really don't have it." The stall owner answered with a bitter smile, "If you want to exchange for Righteous Qi, why don't you go to the tea house in the center of the market … There's a small exchange meeting there. Sometimes, high-level cultivators will come and go."
"Thank you."
Chung Shen-soo cupped his fists and walked to the center of the market.
There was indeed only one tea house here. It was called 'Half Moon Hall'. There were a few cultivators sitting there, talking about the recent strange news in the cultivation world.
Chung Shen-soo went over and found that the hottest topic was what happened in the Fufeng Protectorate.
"… It's said that Longhu Daoist Master displayed his invincible might and beat Protector-General Yan Beiling half to death. That overconfident Hao Yunzi even died … After this battle, almost all the Ability of God cultivators in the Fufeng Protectorate Manor died. It's a tragic sight …"
An old man who was smoking without any concealment sighed.
"I heard … that even Mirrorcloud Sect suffered a great loss. The Primordial Core Realm Sect Master said that he would offer a reward for the whereabouts of Longhu Immortal …"
"If Longhu Immortal didn't betray the sect, he wouldn't dare to do this even if he had ten guts … Sigh …"
