Stone mountains stood in great numbers, and not even a blade of grass grew on them. The precipices were as if they had been carved by a knife, and they were straight up and down. The cliffs were tall, and when put together, they looked like steps leading to the heavens.
There was not a speck of soil in this region, and there was not a single blade of grass. The stone mountains were continuous, and there were also many stone forests. The large rocks were either like crouching cows or like green bamboo shoots. They were all in different shapes, and could be considered a marvelous sight.
After Ye Fan entered the mountain, he looked around. This stone land gave him a very special feeling, as if there was an outer realm lying across this place.
Each mountain had its own realm, and each rock had its own scenery. It was as if someone had used a large brush to carve out a natural path of the great dao. Every mountain and rock here attracted his attention.
After entering this mountainous region, Ye Fan discovered that many of the carvings had already become blurry under the erosion of wind, frost, rain, and snow. He could only vaguely make out them.
Unfortunately, most of them were not so-called cultivation techniques. Many of them were records of some ancient events, and there were even some pictures of scenery, such as hundreds of birds and rare beasts. They were vivid and lifelike.
"Why did the fairies of the Jade Pool carve these?" Ye Fan was suspicious, and he carefully observed them.
"These are all great events that once happened in the Jade Pool. Unfortunately, it is difficult to understand their meaning now."
After walking forward a few dozen steps, Ye Fan arrived in front of a mountain wall. He was instantly stunned. The stone carvings on it were very special. There were two figures engraved on it, and one of them was actually not a human.
It was a man who was two meters tall. He had four pairs of divine wings, and he was handsome and imposing. He had a total of eight arms below his shoulders, and each of them was like a dragon, thick and powerful. There was a vertical eye between his brows.
And in front of him was a beautiful and graceful woman. She was like a majestic queen, and her bearing was extraordinary, making others feel reverence.
"It really does record some great events that once happened in the Jade Pool. An unknown creature and a supreme elite of the Jade Pool confronted each other." Ye Fan was astonished.
"To be more precise, it was a confrontation with a Queen Mother," the large black dog said.
Unfortunately, there was only one carving, and there was no follow-up, so they did not know the outcome of the confrontation.
They walked forward and looked carefully along the way. There were pictures of the Monster King welcoming, and there were pictures of the new Queen Mother inheriting the throne. They were all single pictures, and they were extremely simple. It wasn't that they couldn't see anything.
When they arrived at a stone forest, Ye Fan finally saw a move. There was a large bluestone shaped like a crouching tiger. There was half a stone inscription, and a figure was forming hand seals.
Although it was incomplete, with only half a body missing, it was still quite profound. The seal technique was very familiar to Ye Fan, and after thinking about it carefully, he realized that it was the Embracing Mountain Seal.
The ultimate art of the Li Fire Sect was precisely this type of imprint art. It was extremely powerful and he had evolved it into one of the Battle Saint Arts. He didn't want to see it here again.
"Someone erased half of it …" Ye Fan had a bad feeling.
So many years had passed, so could the Western Emperor Scripture still exist? Could it be that it had also been erased by someone? He didn't really believe the large black dog's words.
"Hurry up and bring me to the Western Emperor Scripture!" Ye Fan urged.
"Aren't we currently looking for it? Perhaps it's hidden in these wall paintings," the Black Emperor replied.
"Don't tell me you don't know its exact location."
"Correct, that's exactly the case. I'm also looking for it," the large black dog replied calmly with his head held high.
This dog was really unreliable. Ye Fan really wanted to give him a kick, but there was nothing he could do now. In the end, he still had to rely on him.
"Are you confident that you can find it?"
"I'll most likely be able to find it," the large black dog replied with an uncertain tone.
Ye Fan took out the Bodhi Seed, and held it in his hand as he sensed his surroundings. He couldn't completely rely on this large dog now, so he had to search for it himself.
The large black dog wore a harmless expression, and he walked closer. Then, he suddenly lowered his black mouth and bit down on his hand.
"F * ck, you damned dog, you're attacking me again!" Ye Fan was already on guard against him, and he hurriedly rushed into the sky.
"So stingy. Isn't it just a nut? It smells very fragrant, and I want to taste what the nut tastes like." The large black dog, who had failed in his sneak attack, was stubborn, and refused to admit his mistake. However, his eyes would occasionally glance at the Bodhi Seed.
"If you dare to attack me again, you can forget about that Black Tortoise for the rest of its life. Hurry up and find the Western Emperor Scripture for me. If you can't obtain it, you'd better give up as soon as possible. Don't raise any conditions for me," Ye Fan said with a dark expression.
The large black dog tilted his head to look at Ye Fan, and said, "Brat, what kind of nut is that in your hand? Can it be eaten?"
"Don't play dumb with me!"
"What's the origin of that stupid nut of yours? I saw a bald man on it just now, and it seemed quite similar. Did you carve it on?"
Ye Fan knew that this dark and wicked damned dog was up to no good again, and had designs on the Bodhi Seed. No matter what, he couldn't let it see this seed.
"Who is that bald man? Why do I feel like he's slightly unusual?" Seeing that Ye Fan was ignoring him, the large black dog could no longer keep his cool.
"His name is Sakyamuni. Have you heard of him?" Ye Fan's heart jolted.
"What kind of stupid name is that? It only has four characters. Is this baldy very famous?" the large black dog asked.
Ye Fan was slightly speechless. The great Tathagata was being spoken to like this by a large dog … He glared, and said, "Stop talking nonsense. Hurry up and find the Western Emperor Scripture for me!"
"Brat, what kind of attitude is this?" The large black dog bared his teeth, and said, "If you continue to be disrespectful to me, you can forget about obtaining the supreme ancient scripture of the human race. That's right, if you can find the Western Emperor Scripture, you have to give me that nut with the fat bald man carved on it as well. "
Ye Fan ignored him, and walked into the distance. He looked at stone inscriptions one after another, and occasionally saw some incomplete techniques. Every time this happened, he would carefully analyze them.
An hour later, Ye Fan arrived in front of a precipice. This was an extremely vast expanse of stone inscriptions, and there were over 100 of them. They were much longer than the ones he had seen just now.
At first, he did not pay much attention. That was because although the stone inscriptions were long, they were not all that profound. They were all the most common techniques. However, after looking at over 30 of them, his expression changed. It was these ordinary techniques, yet they were slowly elevated to a higher level. As he looked at them one after another, they gave off a feeling that they were turning something ordinary into something magical.
He calmed his heart and focused, and looked down. For a whole two hours, Ye Fan did not say anything. Only when he looked at the end did he sigh. "The Jade Pool is indeed worthy of being a Holy Land. These should be for the younger disciples to study, and they all contain deep meanings."
They were not special secret techniques. They were all very common techniques that had been passed down widely. However, they were elevated from ordinary techniques, and when combined together, they could turn something ordinary into something magical, and they could display an unbelievable might.
"More than 100 ordinary techniques combined into one, yet they can evolve into a completely different kind of mighty power. How mysterious."
Ye Fan pondered for a long time before continuing to walk down. He found another hundred or so stone inscriptions, and he carefully observed them.
In the end, he was truly shocked. This was a series, and there were more than 500 stone inscriptions in total.
"This is …"
Ye Fan was extremely shocked. This was a supreme secret technique being deduced. From ordinary to profound, he immediately saw through the mysteries within.
This was deducing an offensive technique of the nine secret techniques!
The Jade Pool's unparalleled experts were shocking. They started out ordinary, and gradually evolved into the Battle Saint Technique, wanting to recreate the nine secret techniques.
Turning something ordinary into something magical, and deriving a great offensive technique of the nine secret techniques, this person was definitely a shocking and outstanding character.
Unfortunately, she failed in the end and could not deduce the Battle Saint Technique.
Such a character was rare since ancient times. Those techniques were all related to the legends of the Battle Saint Technique. This person had derived it to this stage, which was shocking enough. He was definitely a peerless character.
"Connecting the bits and pieces that have been passed down in the world, to be able to deduce to this stage, it is truly astonishing!" Ye Fan sighed.
This person went from simple to complex, but the Battle Saint Technique had tens of thousands of transformations. It could never reach the pinnacle, and it was very difficult to reach the end of "complex".
The true Nine Secret Offensive Saint Technique was to first obtain one, then transform into tens of thousands, to the end of complexity, and then return to one. It was impossible for others to derive it.
This technique was the ultimate simplicity of the great dao!
Ye Fan stood in silence for a long time, pondering in detail. Although this deduction had strayed from the correct path, it had given him great inspiration, allowing him to have a further understanding of the Battle Saint Technique.
Even if one was a peerless genius, without first obtaining the nine secret imprints, one would not be able to derive such a supreme technique.
Ye Fan pondered for a very long time. He felt that he could improve the might of this offensive Saint Technique a little more. This was really an unexpected gain. The geniuses of the Jade Pool had given him great inspiration.
The sky had already darkened. Ye Fan continued to look at the diagrams in the night. When it was late at night, he had already looked through most of the diagrams, but the Western Emperor Scripture was still nowhere to be seen.
"There are no mysterious techniques here at all, and even if there are, they are only some ordinary techniques. You aren't trying to trick me, are you?" Ye Fan's expression was unkind as he stared at the large black dog.
"Didn't I say that even if I saw the Western Emperor Scripture, I might not be able to recognize it? I need to slowly analyze it," the large black dog said.
The moon was bright and the stars were sparse. Ye Fan strode forward, and he had almost gone through all the cliffs, but he still could not find the Western Emperor Scripture.
"I found it, it's here!" the large black dog shouted. In the deep night, his voice traveled especially far, echoing endlessly.
With a few leaps, Ye Fan approached. This stone mountain had a majestic aura, but there were no so-called scriptures on it, and it was completely bare.
"Where is it?"
"This mountain is a part of the scripture. Whether you can obtain it or not will depend on your luck," the large black dog replied with his head raised.
"You are doing this half-heartedly. You casually pointed out a stone mountain and said it was the Western Emperor Scripture. How do you want me to believe you? Can you find the scripture?" Ye Fan questioned.
"That will depend on your comprehension ability," the large black dog stammered.
"Don't try to trick me!" Ye Fan glared at him.
The large black dog was also anxious, and he said, "There is definitely a part of the scripture here. I heard someone say it with my own ears."
"What did you hear back then?" Ye Fan asked.
"The stone mountain with a sun carved on it has a part of the scripture, and the stone mountain with an ancient tree has a part of the scripture …"
According to what the large black dog had said, the Western Emperor Scripture had been hastily created, and the Western Emperor Mother had been comprehending it while carving it down on this stone mountain.
On this precipice, there was indeed a blurry sun, but it was only the size of a palm. Even if one observed it carefully, it was very difficult to imagine that it had been carved by someone, and it seemed very natural.
"This ring is the so-called Western Emperor Scripture? You aren't joking, right?"
The large black dog raised his head, tilted his neck, and said, "That has nothing to do with me. You need to comprehend it yourself."
'This damned dog!' Ye Fan really wanted to teach it a lesson, but he knew that he couldn't. In the end, he flew onto the stone cliff, and observed that sun.
Ye Fan caressed that sun brand with one hand, and held the Bodhi Seed in his other hand. However, even after meditating for a long time, he still couldn't sense any abnormalities.
"Black Emperor, you are lying. What scripture is there here?!"
"There definitely is, but it requires an astonishing comprehension ability. Whether you can obtain the Western Emperor Scripture will depend on your own ability." When the large black dog said these words, he was more or less lacking in confidence.
On the cliff, Ye Fan held the Bodhi Seed in his hand. His heart was empty, and he quietly experienced it. However, it was completely silent, and he couldn't discover anything.
"How many great emperors have there been since ancient times? The scriptures left behind by these people aren't so easy to obtain …" the large black dog shouted from below. "I have found the Western Emperor Scripture for you, but whether you can comprehend it or not is your own matter. You must give that black tortoise to me."
There was a portion of the Western Emperor Scripture recorded in the Origin Heavenly Book, and it belonged to the Dao Palace Scroll. At this moment, Ye Fan silently circulated it, and pressed the Bodhi Seed against that sun.
Boom!
Suddenly, a brilliant light surged up, and a sun rose up from the stone cliff. It was incredibly scorching, and Ye Fan was completely swallowed up.
The entire stone mountain became completely red, and flames surged. The great fire burned half of the sky red. The red sun hung in the sky, massive and vigorous. Ye Fan stood in the sun, and his appearance was solemn and dignified.
"F * ck, how can he really learn it? Apart from astonishing comprehension ability, doesn't he also need the Jade Pool's' Scripture Guidance '? What a great loss, I really let this brat obtain the Western Emperor Scripture … "The large black dog's expression was filled with bad luck, and it was as if he had eaten a dead child.
