"This is the skin of a Qilin!"
In the main hall at the center of the spirit vein mountain, the Evil Emperor stared at the black beast skin on the table and said something that Wang Chong didn't expect.
"Qilin skin? Let me take a look! "
The moment the Demonic Emperor Old Man finished speaking, a small and curious hand reached out from the side and grabbed the black hide on the table.
"Don't!"
"Be careful!"
...
The faces of Wang Chong and the Evil Emperor darkened. They wanted to stop her, but it was already too late. The little sister of the Wang Family had always been the type to act on her whims without any warning.
"Roar! — — "
The atmosphere in the hall changed abruptly. The scene that Wang Chong experienced previously appeared once more.
Almost at the same time that Wang Xiao Yao grabbed the beast skin, a loud and clear beast roar filled with a brutal and murderous aura suddenly resounded in the hall.
An invisible and violent aura swept across the hall like a raging gale, dragging the three of them into it.
Pak da!
The beast skin fell to the ground, and Wang Xiao Yao's hand loosened. Her face was pale, and she looked frightened.
"I told you not to touch it easily."
Wang Chong smiled bitterly. His little sister had always been this rash. This beast skin was extremely sinister. Just by sitting beside it, he and his master were already assaulted by the mental energy. Given how his little sister touched it with her hands, the impact was unimaginable.
"Little fellow, if you continue to be so rash and disregard my advice, don't blame your master for being impolite in the future."
The Evil Emperor glanced at the little sister of the Wang Family and said sternly.
Wang Xiao Yao behaved obediently, not daring to say a word.
Even though she was rebellious by nature, such that even Wang Chong couldn't control her, she was extremely fearful of the Evil Emperor. Furthermore, she had suffered a huge blow from the mental energy assault in the beast skin this time. Even now, she hadn't recovered from it, so how could she dare to say anything?
"Master, a Qilin is an auspicious beast, so how can it be so sinister? Besides, is there really a Qilin in this world? "
Wang Chong asked.
Dragons and Qilins were all legends. Whether it was his previous life or this life, Wang Chong had never seen a single one of them. On the other hand, he had seen many birds, beasts, insects, and fishes.
Crocodiles, lions, tigers, elephants, orangutans … But Wang Chong was very sure that the voice in the beast skin did not belong to any of those beasts.
It didn't even seem like something an ordinary wild beast would have.
"Haha, Chong-er. You didn't see it. But that doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Since we martial artists can obtain legendary powers through cultivation, what's so strange about the appearance of Qilin and the like? When I was young, I once saw an Earth Python. Its tail was on this side of the mountain, but its head was on the other side. "
"Although these items are rare, they do exist."
The Evil Emperor stroked his beard and said something that surprised Wang Chong. But thinking about it, it was hard to refute.
Indeed, since martial artists could exist, what was so strange about the existence of Qilins?
Moreover, when he thought about the otherworldly invaders that would descend upon the Central Plains in the future, wouldn't it be even stranger?
"… Although I have never seen a Qilin, as someone who is well-read, you should know that Qilins did exist in the ancient records. If there is black, then there is white, and if there is good, then there is evil. If there is auspiciousness, then there is naturally evil and darkness. "
The Evil Emperor spoke calmly.
Wang Chong fell silent. There were records of Qilins in the ancient records, and this was something that Wang Chong naturally knew. During the Spring and Autumn Warring States Period, there was a saying that saints were accompanied by Qilins.
And this was even recorded in the history books.
But this sort of thing was too unfathomable, and Wang Chong had always treated it as a legend. Until today, when he encountered this beast skin.
"However, I don't really care if this is the skin of a Qilin. What I care about is this! "
As the Evil Emperor spoke, he extended two fingers from his sleeve and grabbed the black Qilin beast skin on the table. But unlike Wang Xiao Yao, after the Evil Emperor grabbed the beast skin, nothing happened in the room. It was as if it was just an ordinary piece of beast skin.
"What I care about is the treasure map on this beast skin!"
The Evil Emperor flipped the beast skin over, and a completely different treasure map appeared in front of everyone. This was a complicated map filled with mountains and rivers, and there were even some complicated markings that made it impossible for anyone to understand it. It was like a maze.
"… In the world of sects, there is a legend regarding a peerless supreme technique called the Supreme and Infinite Origin Immortal Art."
The Evil Emperor said.
Weng!
Upon hearing this technique, his little sister was still at a loss, but Wang Chong's heart suddenly twitched. When Li Siye handed this technique to him, Wang Chong didn't feel much about it.
But upon hearing the name of this technique, Wang Chong felt completely different.
The top ten legendary techniques of the Central Plains, 《Art of God and Demon Obliteration》, 《Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art》, 《Supreme and Infinite Origin Immortal Art》, 《Myriad Spirit Sea Art》 … 《Supreme and Infinite Origin Immortal Art》 was one of them.
Moreover, this technique could definitely be ranked in the top three of the top ten techniques!
However, Wang Chong knew a long time ago that this technique had been lost a long time ago. Furthermore, it was during the Great Sui Dynasty.
If one wanted to obtain this cultivation technique, there was no meridian to be found. Thus, Wang Chong didn't even consider it from the start, nor did he include it in his search list.
"… Speaking of which, this technique has a lot to do with our lineage. Do you remember what I told you before? The Little Yinyang Art and Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art are extremely easy to master because we don't need to cultivate them. As long as we continuously absorb energy from others, we will be able to gain the cultivation that others would take decades to achieve in a short period of time.
"With this technique, I was already unrivaled in the world of sects by the age of thirty, looking down on all the experts in the world. But for every benefit, there is a drawback. When one's cultivation reaches a certain level, the higher one's cultivation, the more intense the conflict between the Stellar Energy in one's body, and the greater the risk of cultivation deviation. I spent nearly sixty years trying to refine the different kinds of Stellar Energy in my body and fuse them together, but I still failed in the end. "
"In fact, it was also because of this that I was taken advantage of by my traitorous disciple."
At this point, the Evil Emperor turned to Wang Chong, a hint of worry in his eyes.
"Chong-er, your Little Yinyang Art is advancing too quickly. You don't need a reason to kill someone in the army. It's even more convenient for you than it is for the people of our sects. This isn't a good thing at all. "
The Evil Emperor had personally experienced this, and he had almost died because of it. That was why he had completely given up on this technique and switched to the Myriad Spirit Sea Technique.
But there was no need to doubt the power of the Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art. As long as one could kill enough opponents and absorb their inner energy for their own use, one could become a top-class expert in the shortest time possible.
In this aspect, the Myriad Spirit Sea Art could not compare. The latter was dozens of times more difficult to cultivate than the former.
Even if they reached the peak, it would still be equally shocking!
"Master, be at ease. I know what I'm doing."
Wang Chong sincerely said.
"It's good that you understand. The massive flaw of the Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art is not impossible to make up for. If you can obtain the Supreme and Infinite Origin Immortal Art, the two can complement each other and make up for the flaws of the Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art. But no one has ever been able to do this.
"The legacy of the Supreme and Infinite Origin Immortal Art is too mysterious. It only truly rose to fame during the Great Sui Dynasty. Thus, I didn't mention it to you before. This is probably the only clue to this technique in the next several hundred years. "
The Evil Emperor looked at the treasure map on the table and sighed.
Fate truly made fools of people!
If he had obtained this technique earlier, perhaps it would not have been like this. But now, it truly was fate that made fools of people. His Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art had already been broken, and even his dantian had been crippled. He had long ago become incapable of cultivating this technique.
"But how did such an important thing end up in Black Dragon Zhao's hands? Also, what's with this map? "
Wang Chong frowned.
"At the end of the Sui, the world was in chaos and heroes rose up. The Supreme and Infinite Origin Immortal Art probably entered the hands of the common people at that time. Black Dragon Zhao was a tiger blocking the path to the west, and plundering was his duty. Perhaps it was for this reason that he coincidentally obtained the treasure map for this technique.
"As for this map, I heard a little about it when I was in the martial arts world. It was said that the senior who cultivated the Supreme and Infinite Origin Immortal Art had drawn his supreme technique on an ancient map that was completely different from the one we have today. That ancient map represented the origin and inheritance of this cultivation technique, as well as the tradition of this cultivation technique. The more you hear about the legends, the fewer you believe them. I never imagined that this legend would be true! "
The Evil Emperor sighed.
Wang Chong frowned. This was also the first time he had heard of such a thing. Of the ten top-notch cultivation techniques of the Central Plains, other than Su Zhengchen's 《Art of God and Demon Obliteration》 and the Demonic Emperor Old Man's 《Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art》, the other cultivation techniques were hard to come by.
It was not very strange that the Supreme and Infinite Origin Immortal Art would use the geography of ancient times as a clue to its treasure map.
But with the vicissitudes of time, dragons and snakes emerging from the land. The geography of the ancient era was completely different from that of the Tang dynasty. It was basically impossible to find the location where the Supreme and Infinite Origin Immortal Art was hidden by relying on the diagrams of mountains and rivers on it!
