The Art of Celestial Massacre in Troubled Times …
It was hard to describe the shock Fang Xing felt when he perceived the contents of this Law of Dao!
Mu Ci had not lied. This was indeed a supreme Law of Dao. It was no wonder that even Shao-situ and Nie Qianhong had not cultivated it before. This was because this Law of Dao could only be cultivated by those above the Yuanying realm. When she fought with Fang Xing, Shao-situ had just stepped into the Yuanying realm and had not had the time to comprehend it. Under those circumstances, if she had comprehended this Law of Dao, she probably would not have been able to fight with Fang Xing anymore, because she would have been distracted. This Law of Dao was too powerful. For cultivators, especially those who cultivated the way of battle, it was too tempting. This was because this Law of Dao did not belong to the category of celestial techniques at all. To be more precise, it was actually a Heavenly Technique of the Ancient Sages that had been passed down from the Immemorial Age.
A long time ago, Fang Xing had heard the Little Princess of Yaochi, Mu Xiaoqing, talk about the Great Battle of Immortals and Sages in the Immemorial Age. The final result was that the powerful Ancient Immortals were defeated. Some were sent to the Immortal Execution Stage, while others were banished to the Outer Realm. This hidden history seemed to have been deliberately erased. Very few people knew about it. Only the Dao orthodoxies with a deep foundation like Fuyao Palace would occasionally have some records of it. However, the truth was very high. This was because the various rumors in the world had also mentioned the existence of the Ancient Sages. In the legends, they were all people with shocking strength, even surpassing Immortals. However, their lifespans were extremely short, and they disappeared from the world after only a few years.
The Scripture of Dao also mentioned this past event. It even stated that the Scripture of Dao recorded a Heaven Art passed down by an Ancient Sage. This Ancient Sage once used this Heaven Art during the War of Immortals and Saints to slay countless Immortals. Together with other Ancient Sages, they quelled the Immortal Chaos Calamity. That was why this Art was named the Art of Chaotic Times and Celestial Slaughter.
Of course, just like the three Immortal Arts of the Yuan family, these names were the most ancient names, whereas in the later generations, for the sake of avoiding the karma of the unseen world, they didn't dare continue using these names since a long time ago, deeply afraid that they would be feared by the Immortals. Thus, under normal circumstances, when they occasionally mentioned it to the outside world, they would only say it was the Heavenly Art of Dao Protector of Fuyao Palace, and they would absolutely not associate this cultivation technique with words like 'Immortal Slaying.'
Of course, the name had changed, but the content remained the same. This was indeed a …
… It was a heavenly art that could kill immortals!
As for the past Situ of Fuyao Palace, all of them were terrifyingly powerful and arrogant. The secret was also here!
Even if their aptitude was insufficient and they couldn't completely comprehend this heavenly art, as long as they could cultivate this cultivation technique to the lesser stage, or even just comprehend a part of it, then their strength would increase and they would be able to stand at the peak of the world and stand shoulder to shoulder with the geniuses!
However, after he saw even more of the contents of this cultivation technique, a wisp of seriousness appeared on Fang Xing's originally excited face. After that, this wisp of seriousness gradually turned into shock, and he even seemed to sigh slightly. He'd discovered some secrets from this cultivation technique, and it caused his heart to feel as if it was being pulled, causing him to sigh with emotion for a time …
"No wonder Sages are so short-lived …
"No wonder the Situ of Fuyao Palace don't live for long, and you still need so many concubines …"
He slowly drew back the sword in his hand and let out a light breath. Then, he fixed his gaze on Lady Mu Ci.
The past great Situ of Fuyao Palace were all extremely talented. Their strength could be placed at the peak of the world in any era. However, these powerful Situ did not live long. Not to mention other Yuanying or Tribulation Passing Cultivators, who could easily live for thousands of years, or even tens of thousands of years, there were not many Situ of Fuyao Palace who could live for a thousand years like Jindan. This was also the reason why the history of Fuyao Palace's Situ was only tens of thousands of years, but there were already dozens of Situ.
Almost every thousand years!
And this was the reason. The techniques passed down by the ancient Sages were powerful, but it did not mean that they were good. Cultivators sought longevity and immortality, and the ancient Sages actually went against this philosophy. At the beginning, the path they took was the same as Celestials, and the real difference between them and Celestials was when they cut off their own path to longevity. That was an extremely powerful path, but it was not a path that could lead to longevity. It was even a path that would reduce one's own lifespan. As for the past Situ of Fuyao Palace, because they cultivated this Law of Way, they all more or less embarked on this path. Therefore, they were powerful, but it was also because of this that they all had short lives!
"We have taken this technique out and placed it here to show you that Fuyao Palace does not hide anything from you. Our greatest secret technique and greatest secret can be revealed to you, and in these troubled times, we also hope that your strength can increase, the faster the better. However, I still do not wish for you to cultivate this technique. Firstly, the price of cultivating this technique is too great. Even if our Fuyao Palace saved your life, we do not have the right to ask you to pay such a great price. Secondly, cultivating this technique is difficult, far too difficult. Even though the past Great Situ had three thousand concubines, when they cultivated this technique, they were still very careful. There were not many who cultivated it to the minor level, and most of them stopped after grasping a few of the techniques …"
Mu Ci Immortal let out a long sigh and said in an extremely sincere manner, "And you, after all, entered Fuyao Palace halfway through, and do not have any concubines to cultivate with. The female disciples in this area belong to Hong 'er, and you cannot touch them. Moreover, if they are unwilling, they will not be able to help you in any way. So, I still advise you to give up, and forget everything you saw just now, lest you fail in your cultivation and end up hurting yourself …"
"Who said that I don't have concubines who are good to me?"
When Fang Xing heard this, he did not seem to care at all. Instead, he rolled his eyes at Mu Ci Immortal.
"You mean …"
Mu Ci thought of something from the past and knew who he was talking about. She smiled bitterly and shook her head. "That is not enough, it is the same as having nothing!"
"But I have other methods!"
Fang Xing revealed that complacent look again, and said with a smile, "You need to use that method to avoid Qi deviation, that's because you're stupid, and can only use this kind of stupid method, but I'm different from you, I have plenty of methods, just Xiao Man alone is enough!"
Although his expression was playful, Mu Ci Immortal became more and more serious as she listened. She realized that he was not joking.
After a long time, she said seriously, "Then, you want to cultivate this technique, aren't you afraid of shortening your lifespan?"
"Previously, you said that you have inquired about me and understood me, but if you really understood me, you would not have asked this question!"
Fang Xing's reply was very straightforward. He chuckled lightly and said, "I was originally a little bandit. I followed my nine uncles to rob houses, split the gold, eat the meat, and drink the wine. My life was very comfortable. But do you know why I risked my life to enter the cultivation world? It is because when our Ghost Smoke Valley was living happily, there was a cultivator … En, from the looks of it, he was not a cultivator at all. He was just a little brat at the Spiritual Movement Realm. That guy rode an iron eagle and held an iron sword. He descended from the sky and killed all of our brothers in the Ghost Smoke Valley. I was so scared that I crawled out of the dog hole to escape … "As he spoke, his voice gradually became softer.
As he spoke, his voice gradually became softer, "It was too scary. That scene really scared me to death. I almost peed my pants, or I should say that I had already peed my pants, but I was too scared, so I did not realize it. But from then on, I realized that there was actually someone so powerful in this world. So I swore that I must be even more powerful than that guy. So I entered the Blue Cloud Sect, learned his techniques, walked his path, and finally killed him. Then, step by step, I walked to where I am now … That's right, I want to learn the strongest ability, so strong that no one can pretend to be a god in front of me, so strong that no one can scare me into crawling through the dog hole!" "But just a few days ago, I seemed to have seen that guy riding an iron eagle again.
"But just a few days ago, I seem to have seen that guy riding an iron eagle again. But this time, it wasn't one, but a group of them. They didn't ride iron eagles either, instead, they were stepping on grey clouds. A large number of them fell down from the sky, killing people in such a manner that it was even more terrifying than a river of blood. I saw a lot of people that I knew and didn't hate being killed by them. Even I was beaten like a dog by them. I had to be hugged by a group of women to escape with my life, hehehehe …"
Fang Xing suddenly laughed in a low voice. His eyes faintly looked at Fairy Mu Ci, "What do you think I would do?"
Looking at this little devil who did not have a long lifespan and could only be considered as a child in front of her, Fairy Mu Ci felt a chill run down her spine. She opened her mouth, but no words came out. She only moved a little uneasily.
Fang Xing did not wait for her answer. He stood up and stretched. The light of the setting sun shone into the cave behind him, as if he was inlaid with a layer of gold. He said in a deep voice, "Other people cultivate to become immortals, but this young master has never done so! Just like what the uncles in our Ghost Smoke Valley said, to be like those honest farmers, trembling in fear and working hard to live. What's the point of living to a hundred years old? Roaming the world, living a happy life is the rarest. Compared to cultivating to become immortals, this is what I like the most … "
After saying that, he turned around and walked out of the cave. He pulled out the little princess of the Jade Lake, Mu Xiaosai, who was hiding nearby and eavesdropping. He pinched her face with both hands and pulled hard, making the little princess scream in pain. Then he laughed and strode toward the end of the valley. His clear voice came from afar, "I'd rather be a grandfather with a short life than a grandson with a long life!"
"Eh …"
The little princess of Yaochi stared at this back view in a daze. She even forgot to take revenge on Fang Xing for pinching her face.
After a while, she let out a long breath and said to Fairy Mu Ci, "This bastard is so handsome …"
