Chapter 740: Chapter 557: Heading to Qingcheng Mountain, Black Water Mysterious Snake_2

"Very well, very well, very well, very well!"

Su Ding was instantly relieved, and after saying several "very well"s, he finally left with Su Yue.

He had understood the implied meaning of Wang Yang’s words, but still couldn’t help breaking out in a cold sweat as he left.

Wang Yang’s wisdom and talent, including his problem-solving, no longer seemed childlike.

The next day, Wang Yang got up early and tidied up the house, as he might not come back after leaving.

As for the piece of silk, after some thought, Wang Yang decided to keep it.

One reason was that carrying it around was not as convenient as carrying a jade pendant; its material, unique to the Royal Family, could easily attract attention.

Wang Yang did not want to reveal his identity too early, at least not now!

At the village entrance, he saw the True Person of Qingcheng Mountain and a young girl meditating, breathing slowly and guiding nature’s spiritual energy into their bodies.

Wang Yang shook his head with a smile, more convinced than ever that the Qingcheng Sect’s cultivation methods were inferior. Such a method of energy intake retained no more than thirty percent of nature’s spiritual energy within the body!

It was the most basic and least efficient method!

However, as he currently knew nothing about this world’s cultivation methods, he first needed to master them before making a breakthrough!

"Wang Yang, you’ve come!"

Sensing Wang Yang’s arrival, the True Person of Qingcheng Mountain slowly opened his eyes, greeting Wang Yang with a smile.

"Yes, paying respects to my master!"

"No need for excessive courtesy!"

Wang Yang stepped forward to perform a disciple’s salute, while the True Person of Qingcheng Mountain waved his hand, indicating that he should rise and that excess formality was unnecessary.

The True Person of Qingcheng had taken a liking to Wang Yang not just because of the auspicious sign of the Hidden Dragon emerging from its abyss, but because of the massive and refined spiritual energy within him!

Although this power was temporarily dormant within his Dantian, once fully refined, Wang Yang’s realm would advance by leaps and bounds, beyond measure!

This would not only allow him to dominate his rivals in the celestial Mountain conflict in the coming decade but also help him break through his current realm, extend his life, and resolve the crisis of his impending fate!

That’s why the True Person of Qingcheng had given his favorite protective talisman, the Demon-Suppressing Bell, to Wang Yang.

"Wang Yang, do you know how to cultivate?"

Seeing that it was still early, and some time before the scheduled hour, the True Person of Qingcheng Mountain decided to give Wang Yang some guidance.

But to Wang Yang, this sounded very ironic.

He, a Saint, needed guidance from a junior who hadn’t even reached the True Realm?

What is cultivation?

When he was cultivating, perhaps the True Person of Qingcheng Mountain wasn’t even born!

However, as Wang Yang was under someone else’s roof and unfamiliar with the cultivation rules of this world, he could only shake his head and say,

"I do not know."

"Cultivation involves absorbing nature’s spiritual energy into one’s body, circulating it through the Zhou Tian Acupoints, anchoring it in the Dantian, and then, using cultivation methods, stimulating the Dantian Spiritual Qi to nourish the entire body!"

Although these words seemed trivial to Wang Yang, he still carefully remembered every sentence.

"Inside your Dantian, there is spiritual energy as powerful as an ocean. Once refined, your achievements can surpass mine!"

"Thus, you do not need to stabilize your foundation like others. Now, as your master, I shall impart the Cultivation Methods to you. Are you ready?"

Wang Yang’s heart trembled, not expecting the True Person of Qingcheng Mountain to impart the Cultivation Methods at this moment, but he nodded his head.

The True Person of Qingcheng Mountain’s mind moved, and with a touch of his forefinger to Wang Yang’s forehead, streams of information instantly flooded into his mind.

Heaven Origin Formula!

A few large characters were etched inside Wang Yang’s mind, followed by the specific Cultivation Methods.

What surprised Wang Yang was that the Heaven Origin Formula was profound and abstruse, definitely ranking among the top-level Cultivation Methods!

However, the high difficulty of this method, from the perspective of this world, was as different as heaven and earth, with the True Person of Qingcheng Mountain barely managing to enter the Second Layer of Heaven after a hundred years of cultivation!

Yet, the difficulty is relative. To someone with demonic talent like Wang Yang, it was as easy as turning his hand over.

"Thank you, master!"

Wang Yang slowly opened his eyes and bowed earnestly to the True Person of Qingcheng Mountain. Although he vaguely knew that the True Person was likely treating him well because of his aura of fate, such a gift of a method deserved a deep bow!

Sensing the sincerity in Wang Yang’s bow, the True Person of Qingcheng Mountain couldn’t help but smile joyfully, knowing that he had indeed chosen the right person.

"This formula is incredibly profound. With my hundred years of study, I have only reached the Second Layer of Heaven, but you are different. You are talented and blessed by fate. Your future achievements are boundless. Remember one thing, however!"

Having said this, True Person of Qingcheng Mountain purposefully paused, and seeing Wang Yang’s serious expression, he continued.

"The spiritual energy in your Dantian is too overwhelming. During refinement, you must guard against arrogance and impetuosity, keep your feet on the ground, and not be eager for quick success and instant benefits, lest the spiritual energy overwhelm your body. If it’s light, your veins will be completely damaged. If it’s severe, you could suffer from demonic intrusion, bleeding from all seven orifices and death!"

"Disciple will bear it in mind!"

Wang Yang nodded solemnly. He naturally understood very well the critical prohibitions of cultivation that True Person of the Heavens had mentioned.

"Master, they are here!"

A young girl softly said, and True Person of Qingcheng slowly rose to his feet and nodded.

The arrival of Lu Feng and Su Yue signified the beginning of the Qingcheng Sect’s mission. Wang Yang turned around, his gaze lingering on Qingcheng Village for a moment, a trace of inexplicable emotion flashing in his eyes.

"It’s time! Let’s go!"

With a wave of his hand, True Person of Qingcheng Mountain, Wang Yang, and the others instantly rose into the air, sitting on a white cloud and speeding toward the direction of the Qingcheng Sect.

Lu Feng and Su Yue both showed incredibly shocked expressions, recognizing these methods as those of an Immortal.

The young girl took it as usual, but Wang Yang appeared calm, sitting cross-legged, and started to contemplate the Nine Heavens True Origin Formula.

Boom.

Just when they were passing by some mountain forest, a deafening loud noise suddenly came, along with a powerful shockwave!

"How dare this evil creature!"

The shockwave headed towards them, as True Person of Qingcheng Mountain widened his eyes in anger and instantly bellowed out!

The sound waves spread out like the Voice of the Great Dao, shattering the shockwave to bits.

Although Divine Skills were still disturbed, True Person of Qingcheng Mountain landed immediately. As an Exorcist, how could he ignore the presence of such a level of evil spirits?

"Ling’er, protect them, and remember not to step outside of this circle!"

True Person of Qingcheng then put his fingers together in front of him and muttered an unknown incantation, as the spiritual energy surged out from his body.

A golden ancient bell, ethereal and hanging in the void, formed above the heads of the four of them!

The golden bell enveloped them, its layers of spiritual energy pulsating outward.

Hiss!

At this moment, a hissing sound tore through the void, and soon a huge python, dozens of meters long and as thick as a water barrel, charged toward them!

The python’s body was covered with pitch-black scales, hard as iron, and wherever it passed, trees were broken and collapsed!

"Good timing!"

True Person of Qingcheng Mountain snorted coldly, his hands suddenly forming seals, his Daoist robe moving on its own, making a rustling sound.

"The universe is boundless, the world lends its power! Nine Heavens Divine Thunder, descend!"

As soon as he spoke, the originally clear sky suddenly filled with dark clouds, and lightning intertwined, with the sound of thunder rumbling incessantly in the ears!

Hiss!

Seemingly sensing the danger, the python looked up to the sky and hissed, its giant mouth opening wide, as an incredibly powerful beam of spiritual energy condensed within!

Crack!

With a loud noise, Divine Thunder descended, smashing fiercely towards the python, making the air seem to fail under the stress, emitting a harsh friction sound!

Whoosh!

Just then, the spiritual energy beam from the python’s mouth suddenly turned into a Mysterious Thunder, directly heading for the Divine Thunder!

Boom!

A loud noise echoed all around, and a powerful shockwave spread out, leveling the surrounding area for several miles, and in an instant, dust and smoke filled the air.

Spitting Mysterious Thunder!

"Black Water Mysterious Snake!"

It turned out to be a demonized Black Water Mysterious Snake!

True Person of Qingcheng couldn’t help but exclaim.

The spiritual energy around him vibrated, dispersing the dust, but the Black Water Mysterious Snake was nowhere to be seen.

In front of True Person of Qingcheng, only a huge pit was left, along with a pool of fresh blood, evidently the snake had been severely wounded and had escaped.

"What a pity! We failed to slay this evil creature here!"
