"Are you... Old Chen?"
He tentatively asked.
The middle-aged man opened his eyes, clenched his fists, touched his smooth and elastic skin, and looked at his glossy black hair, a smile erging on his face.
Especially feeling the intact dantian in his body, albeit a bit empty, he was greatly satisfied:
"Good, very good!"
Although he no longer had the vigorous cultivation True Qi of the past, this body’s foundation was intact, muscles and bones robust, with even the base of the Celestial Human Realm.
Next, he only needed to cultivate step by step, and sooner or later, he would recover his cultivation. Perhaps, he might even step into a higher realm!
Who knows how long he had planned and waited for this mont!
At this point, the middle-aged man looked at Gu Yuan, his gaze deep and sowhat unusual.
"Old Chen, do you intend to kill ?"
Feeling the faint murderous aura emanating from the other, Gu Yuan wasn’t surprised and began to fully operate his martial arts technique.
Crack! Crack!
The sound of bones and muscles resonated within him, resembling the clash of gold and iron.
His height suddenly surged by more than half a foot, transforming into a black giant with a daunting aura, muscles knotted, resembling turtle patterns, exuding a primal aura.
In his hand, the Qiushui Sword also humd, emanating a fierce and imposing killing intent!
This intense killing intent even made Chen Qi quite moved.
He stared at Gu Yuan for a while before sighing: "Great Success in Bone Refining, Small Success in Horizontal Training, and this swordsmanship... It seems I’ve underestimated you after all!"
"From the ti I bestowed the ’Profound Turtle Armor Technique’ on you until now, it hasn’t even been a month, has it?"
Chen Qi glanced deeply at Gu Yuan: "What a pity, such a good seedling... If I had known, perhaps I would have accepted you as a disciple no matter what."
"That indeed would be a pity."
Gu Yuan’s expression remained unchanged.
"You’re as cautious as ever, young one."
Seeing Gu Yuan still on guard, Chen Qi chuckled and waved his hands: "Rest assured, I have just perford the Celestial Demon Seizing Dao Technique and have only rebuilt my body’s foundation, devoid of cultivation. Therefore, I can’t kill you, nor will I. The murderous aura earlier was rely the killing intent arising from the demonic nature after I’ve established a demon dao foundation, not my original intention."
"Celestial Demon Seizing Dao Technique?"
Gu Yuan furrowed his brows.
Just hearing the na made him seem to catch a whiff of a cruel, bloody scent.
Chen Qi smiled, though his face faintly exuded a wicked charm:
"Yes, this technique is a secret of the demon dao; once perford, it can seize another’s fleshly foundation and even lifeti cultivation, with the power to regenerate the body and undergo a complete transformation."
Before Gu Yuan could ask, he explained:
"Actually, my initial intention was indeed to kill the Old Monster Xuan You, but after inadvertently obtaining this secret technique, I gradually changed my mind."
"Since the Old Monster Xuan You destroyed my daoist foundation, I’ll just seize his daoist foundation. It’s only fair, isn’t it?"
After saying this, he looked at Gu Yuan: "Young Gu, if you feel that you have been manipulated by , there’s no need."
As he spoke, Chen Qi patted his waist storage pouch, and a black leather book along with a jade scroll flew out, and he recorded so things with Divine Thought in the jade scroll before tossing both to Gu Yuan.
"The jade scroll contains the second half of the ’Profound Turtle Armor Technique.’ As for the black leather book, it is the ’Luo Sha Scripture’ cultivated by the Old Monster Xuan You, an Earth Tier Middle Grade Daoist Scripture, though incomplete, it’s extraordinarily precious, capable of stirring up a bloody storm in the outside world. It is of no use to , so I gift it to you."
Gu Yuan received both items.
[Dao Rhy Points 68!]
[Dao Rhy Points 569!]
At the mont he got hold of them, two entries of Dao Rhy Points were credited.
Gu Yuan felt a sense of relief; while the ’Profound Turtle Armor Technique’ was one thing, the ’Luo Sha Scripture’ was an experience Daoist Scripture and valuable beyond comparison to the forr by countless tis!
If in the future he gets no other True Daoist Techniques, he can cultivate this scripture to step into the Dao.
Moreover, the ’Luo Sha Scripture’ is not rely an ordinary True Daoist Technique but an Earth Tier Middle Grade Daoist Scripture.
True Daoist Techniques, also called Daoist Scriptures, have a grade level like martial arts.
They are divided into Earth Tier Daoist Scriptures and Celestial Tier Daoist Scriptures.
Within the great tiers of Earth and Celestial, there are distinctions of Lower Grade, Middle Grade, Upper Grade, and Peak.
The Earth Tier Middle Grade Daoist Scripture is already extrely rare, often containing Core Formation Secret Techniques, and even in a Great Immortal Sect like dicine King Mountain, they are not commonplace.
"Giving you these two things marks the completion of our transaction."
Chen Qi resolved his past karma and felt entirely relaxed, his interior and exterior flowing smoothly; he smiled warmly:
"But seeing how agreeable I find you, I’ll say a few more words before leaving, whether you heed them is entirely up to you."
Gu Yuan adopted a respectful attitude and said: "Please, enlighten ; I am all ears."
Chen Qi said dismissively:
"Xia Mingyang is deeply scheming and ambitious, a dangerous character, and lately, he seems to be secretly plotting sothing. If I were you, I’d keep my distance."
Xia Mingyang... Gu Yuan nodded: "I understand, thank you for the warning."
"And then there’s the matter of the imminent ergence of the Red Dragon Immortal Palace. Once it erges, it will certainly be earth-shattering, and those not at the Celestial Human level won’t even know how they died..."
Chen Qi gave him a look: "That’s all I have to say; our connection is now severed. I wish you well, I am leaving now..."
With that, his figure moved, transforming into a stream of light, fleeing far, disappearing into the night, no trace left behind.
Gu Yuan stood silently for a mont, giving a salute in the direction Chen Qi had left.
Old Chen, though he had concealed so things from him, had never mistreated him.
He even guided him many tis, serving almost as a half-teacher to him, so Gu Yuan had complex feelings towards him.
It was just that just now, after Old Chen had perford the Celestial Demon Seizing Dao Technique and went through a transformation, he felt more unfamiliar to Gu Yuan.
Understandably so, the earlier Old Chen was aged, his foundation destroyed, half a cripple.
But now, the Old Chen’s body was borrowed from another, and having entered the path of the demon, underwent a transformative rebirth, was certainly not the sa as before.
Nonetheless, with his goal achieved, Old Chen likely wouldn’t return to the Jade Cauldron Tower.
Who knows when they would et again.
Gu Yuan thought sowhat wistfully.
Then he picked up the remains of the White Bone Yin Demon Sword and the Soul-Killing Banner from the ground, plundered hundreds of Dao Rhy Points, and called out to A-Huang, A-Wu, and Da-Zui as they headed into the deep mountains.
Gu Yuan wasn’t chasing after Old Chen; rather, Da-Zui had reached maturity, ready for an upgrade.
So now, he needed to find a suitable place to help Da-Zui level up first.
