Chapter 56: Chapter 56 The Lone Tomb on Qingyun Mountain
Su Yang didn’t linger long at the Qingyun Clubhouse, as he didn’t fancy such scenes.
The reason he ca was to accompany Zhao Qiupeng, and escalating the situation was ant to give face to his own friend.
As for himself, Su Yang didn’t care about such external possessions; what he cared more about was his own strength.
Zhao Qiupeng and Xie Wei were sent away by people from Ling Zi, while Su Yang left on his own. He didn’t go to the city but to Qingyun Mountain behind the clubhouse.
Qingyun Mountain is a rather famous mountain in Nanluo City. The mountain’s feng shui is very favorable, which is why the Qingyun Clubhouse was built on such an auspicious site. The back of Qingyun Mountain, on the other hand, is mostly ceteries, where the wealthy of Nanluo City bury their ancestors.
The section on Taoism Cultivation in Destiny’s To records that a feng shui location can also provide spiritual energy to people.
Though Su Yang’s "Devouring the Heavens" was powerful, this was, after all, forcibly extracting external force, not cultivated bit by bit by oneself. To control such power, one must also elevate one’s own strength.
Therefore, Su Yang had now recommitted to a cultivation thod. Based on Taoism and Buddhism, with the Demonic Sect as the main body. A solid foundation allows for steady progress!
Destiny’s To contained a skill for geomancy. Su Yang had learned the content of the first page, and his geomantic abilities now far exceeded those self-proclaid masters. Standing atop Qingyun Mountain, he could roughly grasp the feng shui trend of the mountain.
With no one around, Su Yang displayed the Aerial Levitation Technique from Taoist cultivation, using the true qi within his body to slowly lift himself off the ground.
This was Su Yang’s first attempt at practicing the Aerial Levitation Technique. At first, he only managed to lift halfway before falling back down. But as he practiced more, he beca increasingly proficient.
An hour later, Su Yang was able to move through the air, though the speed was not fast, and the power consud was still considerable, posing quite a burden for him at present.
Su Yang recalled the Sword Riding Technique within the Taoist arts, an alternative form of the Aerial Levitation Technique. Using the sa mode of air travel, it consud much less power and could increase speed trendously, being one of the more powerful techniques in Taoist cultivation.
However, to practice the Sword Riding Technique, one must at least be in the Integration Realm, the third level of Yellow Grade. Su Yang hadn’t stepped into the Integration Realm yet, and besides, he didn’t possess a suitable sword, so for now, that technique was rely a thought.
Using the Aerial Levitation Technique to ascend, Su Yang couldn’t fly very high just yet, barely five or six ters above the ground, but it was much faster than walking.
Soon, Su Yang arrived at a protruding stone platform on the back mountain. This was the place where the spiritual energy of this feng shui treasure converged.
Walking back and forth on the stone platform, Su Yang felt the location of the spiritual energy and sat down cross-legged to begin absorbing it using Daoist secret techniques.
The Daoist secret techniques were not as domineering as those of the Demonic Sect; they couldn’t simply devour this spiritual energy.
The Daoist secret techniques required using one’s own power to gradually guide the spiritual energy into the body. Thus, the pace of advancent in Taoist cultivation was far slower than in demonic cultivation.
However, demonic cultivation had its drawbacks, such as the risk of having an unstable foundation. This thod allowed for rapid progression in the early stages but could lead to various complications later on.
Because of the unstable foundation, the pace of advancent for demonic cultivators slowed down in the latter stages.
Su Yang felt the flow of spiritual energy and slowly used his own power to guide it into his body.
From the outside, several white streams of energy, as thick as thumbs, were seen coiling around Su Yang, slowly entering his seven orifices.
Enveloped in white energy, Su Yang’s body appeared sowhat ethereal, almost as if surrounded by a celestially mist.
As the spiritual energy slowly entered his body, Su Yang felt the discomfort caused by "Devouring the Heavens" over the past few days gradually getting better.
The previously uncontrollable forces within him were now gradually being subdued.
Truly, the Daoist secret arts were extraordinary!
After cultivating for an hour like this, the white streams of energy beca thinner, until they were almost invisible, as if about to break.
Su Yang opened his eyes and dispersed the white energy around him, slowly stretching his body.
By doing so, he had absorbed most of the spiritual energy from this feng shui treasure site.
Of course, this would not affect the feng shui of the treasure site, but it would take at least a year for the spiritual energy to recover.
Getting up and descending the mountain, Su Yang once again displayed the Aerial Levitation Technique, and this ti, it was much smoother than before.
His strength had greatly increased, and he could now be considered to be at the mid-stage of Qi Refinent.
However, Su Yang’s mid-stage Qi Refinent was much stronger than the peak-stage of an ordinary person.
After all, he practiced the secret arts from Destiny’s To, incomparable to any ordinary secret techniques.
Figures like Master Wu were at the peak stage of Qi Refinent. However, when he encountered Su Yang, who was at the early stage of Qi Refinent, he was instantly killed with a single move.
In battles amongst equals, Su Yang’s strength could instantly kill anyone.
However, if he encountered soone in the Integration Realm, Su Yang’s power would have so difficulty coping.
Because the Integration Realm and the Qi Refining Realm are completely different states of being, with completely distinct attributes of strength.
Suddenly, Su Yang who was descending the mountain using the Aerial Levitation Technique, halted, his gaze falling upon a solitary grave midway up the slope.
This lone grave was in a rather remote spot, but Su Yang could tell that this location was a node in the geomantic network of this treasure land.
Such nodes were different from the usual geomantic treasure spots. This type of geomantic node was a circulation point for the flow of geomancy.
It seed simple, but in fact, it was hardly less potent than the geomantic treasure spots. This geomantic node possessed all the fortunes of this geomantic land!
However, geomantic nodes were extrely difficult to find. Even those revered geomancers pursued by thousands couldn’t locate a geomantic node.
The geomancy Su Yang learned from the Destiny’s To allowed him to identify this geomantic node at a glance.
Gazing at the solitary grave for a while, Su Yang suddenly dove down and landed next to the grave.
"Fang Jingshan!" Su Yang read the na on the tombstone, circled the grave twice, and scoffed, "Just who did your descendants offend? They chose such an excellent location, but soone reversed the geomancy, turning good feng shui into bad. Not only is it unable to protect the descendants, but it also adds to their troubles."
"However, this thod of reversing the geomancy is truly clumsy. It seems the person who reversed the geomancy was nothing but an outsider!"
Su Yang did not linger there, as he neither knew nor understood the descendants of this Fang Jingshan, so he did not intervene in the matter.
After coming down the mountain, Su Yang bypassed the Qingyun Clubhouse, slowly making his way towards the city center. On one hand, to conserve energy, and on the other, to appreciate the nearby scenery and see if he could find another place gathering spiritual energy.
About ten miles from the Qingyun Clubhouse at a corner, Su Yang saw five cars parked by the roadside from a distance.
There were quite a few people standing outside the vehicles, among them Su Yang recognized one, it was Ding Runze, angrily talking to soone close by.
"Damn it, I’ve been right here since I ca out, and didn’t see that bastard appear. There’s only this road leading away from the Qingyun Clubhouse, where else could that bastard Su go?"
"Young Master, we really should have kept that car earlier. If we had captured his two friends, we wouldn’t have to worry about the kid not showing up!" a lackey whispered.
"Bullshit!" Ding Runze cursed, "Are you fucking brain-dead? This is the Qingyun Clubhouse, if we caught those two there, wouldn’t Ling Zi co directly out to fight us to the death?"
"What’s our goal? It’s that bastard surnad Su. This Su guy’s got so skills, and he’s also got Ling Zi backing him up. If we’re going to take him down, we have to do it with one hit and can’t afford any slip-ups."
"So, before we catch this Su guy, we absolutely can’t ss around or spook anybody, got it?"
Su Yang couldn’t help but laugh from a distance, this Ding Runze really had so nerve, ambushing him here. It seed the lesson he taught him earlier wasn’t enough!
"Ahem..." Su Yang coughed lightly, strode around the corner, and approached the group of people.
"Fuck, it’s him!" Ding Runze almost jumped, pointing at Su Yang and cursing, "That’s the bastard, damn, I thought you had run away, but you actually ca right to us. Quick, block him!"
His minions imdiately rushed over to encircle Su Yang. They were all ard, and it seed they weren’t planning to let Su Yang leave in one piece today.
Supported by several others, Ding Runze approached, grinding his teeth, "Su Yang, I bet you didn’t expect to see us again so soon!"
"I didn’t expect..." Su Yang smiled faintly, "I didn’t expect you to be so bold, daring to provoke
again!"
"Fuck, what ti do you think it is for you to still be so arrogant!" Ding Runze shouted, "Do you know who’s surrounding you? I’ll tell you, these guys, they’re all elite hands of the Cangbei Martial Arts."
"Do you think by defeating
you can really act so high and mighty? Let
tell you, this is Nanluo City, and in front of , Ding Runze, you’re nothing!"
"Today, I’m going to show you the power of the Ding Family. Su, you were quite cocky inside, even daring to hit ? Humph, now I’ll let you know, this young master is soone you can never afford to ss with!"
Hands behind his back, Su Yang spoke softly, "Ding Runze, are you planning to talk
to death? If you’re done, let’s just get on with it. Don’t waste my ti!"
Ding Runze was furious, pointing at Su Yang, "You little brat, I’ve never seen anyone in such a hurry to die. Fine, I’ll accommodate you, chop him up!"
The surrounding people looked ready to take action with a ferocious montum, but at that mont, an icy voice suddenly ca from afar, "Stop!"
Turning their heads, they saw a black Bentley parked not far away. Next to the car stood a slender, stunningly beautiful girl, looking indignantly at Ding Runze!
