In the courtyard of the Yang Clan.
Yang Ba traded a few kinds of pills for a lot of rare treasures. He handed them all to Yang Wu to count.
These rare treasures were not chosen by Yang Ba, but by Lei Zongjun. He used to be a Saint, so his eyesight was not to be underestimated. He could determine which rare treasures were good and which were not, and choose the most valuable ones among them.
These things included the precious Colored Glaze Avatar, Thousand Miles Cloud Boots, Nine Segment Holy Bamboo, Dragon Bone … Many of these things were top grade Minor Saint items, and their value was extraordinary.
Yang Wu looked at these things and was quite satisfied. A few of them were very useful to him.
In addition, he took out some and gave them to Lei Zongjun, Yang Ba, and Bai Luoyun, hoping that these things could help them improve faster.
Among them, Yang Wu took special care of Bai Luoyun. Among the things he got from the trade, there was an item called "Water Eye Stone", which was very useful for those who cultivated water profound Qi. It was even more useful for those of the Water Race. It could be fused into their eyes, forming a pair of strange pupils.
Bai Luoyun was very happy, and said, "Thank you for the reward, my lord."
Yang Wu said to Bai Luoyun, "This is what you deserve. You've followed me loyally, so I won't mistreat you. With this Water Eye Stone, perhaps you'll be able to cultivate better on the continent. I'll also prepare some pills for you to help you reconstruct your body as quickly as possible so that you won't be stuck in the same spot."
During this period of time, Yang Wu saw the performance of the people around him. Bai Luoyun was wholeheartedly loyal to him. He was also very clear that he could train him well.
In addition, Yang Wu also shared his cultivation method with Yang Ba, hoping that Yang Ba would not break through too quickly. He wanted to build a solid foundation as much as possible so that he could erupt with more powerful battle strength.
Yang Wu treated him as a brother, and he treated Yang Wu as his master. He knew what was important and what was not.
Without Yang Wu, he wouldn't be where he was today. He was stubborn and was willing to become Yang Wu's right-hand man.
After Yang Wu asked Yang Ba and Bai Luoyun to leave, he talked to Lei Zongjun alone, "Zong Jun, how's your progress in practicing the Ghost Cultivation Method?"
Lei Zongjun replied, "Thank you, my lord, for bestowing me with the celestial art. Everything is progressing smoothly."
"You don't have to hide it from me. It's hard for you to make any progress in your cultivation during this time." Yang Wu said affirmatively. He paused for a while and said, "I know your situation better than you do. The first reason is that your original soul power is not complete. The second reason is that the Ghost Cultivation Method I taught you is not complete. Therefore, you cannot re-cultivate the Divine Body."
Lei Zongjun said in a low voice, "It's normal that my lord doesn't trust me."
"Well, that's why I want to hear your story today. Are you willing to tell me?" Yang Wu nodded.
Lei Zongjun took a deep breath and replied, "If my lord wants to hear it, then I will tell you … …"
Yang Wu listened seriously to Lei Zongjun's story before he was killed.
Lei Zongjun came from the Purple Firmament Palace. He originally had the qualifications to fight for the position of Palace Master and was one of the candidates.
He was proud of his success in the Purple Firmament Palace and had a respected position. He was very confident that he could win the position of Palace Master. However, he was killed by his closest brother before he could fight for the position.
Lei Zongjun was first ambushed and then fought with his opponent. He was crippled, but his opponent didn't have it easy either. In the end, he was hit by the Soul Suppressing Pot and his Divine Body exploded. The person holding the Soul Suppressing Pot was also killed by him. Because he was too weak, he was sealed by the Soul Suppressing Pot. He didn't know how many years had passed until Yang Wu appeared. Then, he had a chance to escape from the Soul Suppressing Pot.
After Yang Wu finished listening, he pointed upwards and couldn't help but exclaim, "Is it that Purple Firmament Palace?"
Lei Zongjun nodded lightly and said, "Yes, it is that Purple Firmament Palace. I used to be so glorious, but now … … sigh!"
"Do you feel very sullen?" Yang Wu asked.
"Who says it isn't? When I first followed you, my lord, it was to preserve my soul power. I wanted to escape and find an opportunity to reforge my body. I wanted to find a quiet place to cultivate. After I recovered my strength, I would find that treacherous villain to settle the score. Unfortunately, man proposes, God disposes. In the end, it was my lord who rewarded me that I was able to reforge my body. Zongjun only hopes to recover my strength and take revenge. I have no regrets in this life. I am willing to follow you, my lord," Lei Zongjun said from the bottom of his heart.
"You have never thought of killing me and regaining your freedom?"
"My lord is more intelligent than others and has great opportunities. I have already given up on that idea."
"That's good. Even if you recover your strength in the future, you may not be able to take revenge. What kind of power is the Purple Firmament Palace? You are dreaming if you want to kill their Palace Master."
"My lord, you don't know. When I was killed, those Skyreach Protectors and the Sacred Elder who supported me didn't know. If I go back alive, they will definitely know what happened back then. My enemy will definitely die a horrible death."
"Now that you are neither human nor ghost, I'm afraid they won't recognize you when you go back."
Lei Zongjun fell silent.
Yang Wu had hit the nail on the head. He had used his soul to reforge his body and condensed it into a ghost body. If he went back with this appearance, how could the people of the Purple Firmament Palace recognize him?
"Don't think too much. I will restore your soul and teach you the complete 'Ghost Cultivation Art.' You will become the Unparalleled Ghost Sage and can still take revenge," Yang Wu said seriously.
Lei Zongjun was overjoyed. "My lord, are you serious?"
Yang Wu didn't waste words. He summoned the Soul Suppressing Pot and released Lei Zongjun's origin soul power. He also erased the imprint he had left on the Soul Suppressing Pot and gave it to Lei Zongjun.
Lei Zongjun was a ghost body. It was very easy for something to happen to him when he encountered extreme yang power. With the Soul Suppressing Pot's protection, he was like a tiger that had grown wings.
After Lei Zongjun's soul power was restored, he became more energetic. The realm he was stuck in seemed to show signs of loosening.
When Yang Wu returned the Soul Suppressing Pot to him, he couldn't help but kneel on one knee and say, "Thank you, my lord."
Yang Wu didn't respond. He completely passed the inheritance of the "Ghost Cultivation Art" to Lei Zongjun.
By doing this, not only did he return Lei Zongjun his freedom, he also gave Lei Zongjun the chance to return to his peak. It could be said that he was extremely generous.
Lei Zongjun was extremely moved. He was also shocked by Yang Wu's boldness.
He had accompanied Yang Wu for a long time and understood that Yang Wu wasn't an ignorant youth. On the contrary, he was very cautious. Yang Wu treating him like this meant that he had completely let down his guard against him.
After doing all this, Yang Wu said faintly, "I returned your freedom and passed the" Ghost Cultivation Art "to you, not because I completely trust you, but because I feel that you no longer pose any threat to me. With my current combat strength, it's not difficult to kill you. Even if you break through to become a Ghost Sage, I won't necessarily be afraid of you. You should believe that I can do it. The reason why I gave you your freedom is because I hope that you will feel grateful. I was the one who saved you back then. Although there were some conflicts between us, that's all in the past. I don't know if you will bear a grudge against me, but that's not important. What's important is that I hope that you will return to the Purple Cloud Palace with me in the near future. My woman is there, and I must marry her. When the time comes, I naturally hope that you can lend me a hand. Perhaps you can return to the Purple Cloud Palace and become the Palace Lord. As for me … marrying her will be enough. "
Lei Zongjun knew about the existence of Zi Yu Yue. He nodded deeply and said, "My lord, don't worry. From now on, I will still be by your side and will not do anything to betray you. Otherwise, I will be struck by lightning and die."
"Your oath isn't funny at all. You should have also cultivated the power of thunder in the past, right?" Yang Wu said with a faint smile.
Lei Zongjun was speechless for a moment.
"Alright, you don't have to think too much. I said those words just to let you know what I will do in the future. You should also know that there are some things that I can definitely do, even if I'm still very weak now." Yang Wu said with a confident and high-spirited look.
Lei Zongjun didn't doubt Yang Wu's words at all. He had witnessed Yang Wu's growth. Yang Wu was like a mysterious young man. No one could see through his foundation clearly.
Lei Zongjun had once been in a high position and had been in a top faction like the Purple Firmament Palace. He had seen all kinds of geniuses and monsters. He had also been one of the top monsters back then. When he was as old as Yang Wu, he had the same cultivation level as Yang Wu. However, even if there were ten of him at that time, he still wouldn't be a match for Yang Wu.
If he had met the Yang Wu before he had entered the God of War Pagoda, he would definitely have been able to put up a fight. He even had the confidence to defeat him.
After Yang Wu had come out of the God of War Pagoda, his entire aura had changed completely. He had comprehended his own martial intent. Even a Saint might not be able to do that.
"Zongjun, you are experienced and knowledgeable. What do you think my future path should be?" Yang Wu asked Lei Zongjun.
Lei Zongjun pondered for a moment before saying, "With my lord's talent, you should strive for the path of the strongest. My lord is still very young, so as long as you work hard and strive to reach the Star Rune Realm before you are 100 years old, I suggest that my lord spend less time on alchemy and focus more on martial arts. Once you reach the Star Rune Realm, you can form your own team. It would be best if you could take over everything from the Yang Clan. This way, my lord can avoid many detours. It would be more difficult to establish another faction. Furthermore, without ten thousand years of consolidation, it would be difficult for you to become a second-rate faction. If my lord has no intention of fighting for power, you can also become a peerless expert and live a carefree life with your own deterrence. There is no lack of such carefree people in the Transcendent Realm."
After Yang Wu heard this, he fell silent for a moment before saying, "Your suggestion is probably the dream of every youth." After pausing for a moment, he sighed softly and said, "I just want the people around me to be safe and sound, without any disasters or difficulties. I just want them to live a simple and free life. Perhaps your last suggestion is the most suitable for me."
"People in the pugilistic world have no choice. An outstanding youth like my lord will definitely attract the jealousy of others. How can everything be smooth sailing? It is better for my lord to recognize the path under his feet as soon as possible."
"Mm, you are right. If I want you to head to the Ghost race and become an important member of the Ghost race, or even a leader, would you be willing?"
