Desolate Mountain mountains and wilderness

Chen Wang was covered in blood, with a bloody gash on his back and blood still dripping from his right hand.

Just now, he crushed the head of Song Yuzhu, the female cultivator from Dragon Head Mountain, with lightning speed.

Song Yuzhu probably didn't expect that Chen Wang would show no mercy to her this time. At this moment, Chen Wang's gaze swept around, and his Divine Sense also explored the surroundings, paying attention to the movements around him.

He held the black Immortal Slaughtering Bow in one hand.

"They haven't shown up yet, is there Dao Zhen no one else?"

This thought crossed Chen Wang's mind.

But he couldn't explore any further at this point. Since he hadn't caught any fish, he decided not to stay there any longer.

He quickly collected the three bodies and then took out an Ancient Jade to collect their remaining souls.

As he chanted the incantation, the souls of the three people were quickly absorbed into an Ancient Jade piece.

These are not complete souls; they have already begun to dissipate.

Chen Wang then leaped into the air and flew towards the horizon.

He rode on the Green Ox Sword, moving with incredible speed, leaving a long trail in the sky. He carried a large black bow in his hand and gazed around.

So fierce yet so cautious, it makes one hesitant to approach easily.

Guo Changling and Wang Fengxian, a couple from the Ethereal Immortal Sect, exchanged a glance, both looking horrified.

They were some distance away and had concealment techniques, so they weren't discovered for a while.

But if they stop now, Huo Yun might really find out.

"This matter must be reported to the sect, and they must punish him severely!"

Wang Fengxian said fiercely.

She breathed a sigh of relief only after the man left.

The oppressive feeling he exuded when he held the Immortal Slaughtering Bow was just too strong.

The bald old man of Dragon Head Mountain possessed astonishing swordsmanship and profound Law Power, yet he still died under the Immortal Slaughtering Bow, without any power to resist. She herself knew she couldn't possibly withstand it either.

Meanwhile, Guo Changling was standing silently to the side, stared blankly into the direction they had gone, lost in thought.

Wang Fengxian said impatiently, "Are you still lamenting the death of that young female cultivator!"

Her words inevitably carried a hint of harshness.

But Guo Changling didn't show any panic; he turned his head and sighed.

"Huo Yun has made a fortune this time."

Wang Fengxian immediately realized that Dragon Head Mountain had bid for several treasures at this auction, including the stunning treasures such as the Sea Flipping Seal and the Winds Sweep the Nine Heavens Dragon Head Mountain.

Not only that, Huo Yun also took all the treasures on these people and some protective techniques that they had not yet used.

Wang Fengxian said jealously, "This makes it even more unbearable for him. We must find a way to bring him down!"

A determined look appeared in Guo Changling's eyes as he said in a deep voice, "Let's go. First, we'll report this matter to the Old Ancestor. As for whether to report it directly to the sect, we need to consider it carefully, lest we fail to kill the snake and end up being targeted by it ourselves."

After the couple left, two other people in the nearby mountains were watching this scene from afar.

These are the two women from Southern Border.

The tall woman frowned and said, "This man is a top-notch hunter. Did you see his big bow earlier?"

But after she finished speaking, no one responded for a long time.

She turned to look at the Miao Border girl who was lost in thought, and nudged her, "Hey, I'm talking to you."

The two of them had a good relationship, and she also had a bit of a headache with this junior sister who often caused trouble.

This Miao Border girl had dark skin, but a very attractive and graceful figure. When she pushed him, it caused waves of pleasure, unlike the tall and thin woman.

She snapped out of her daze, her eyes shining with excitement. "Ah, what did you say, senior sister?"

The tall woman rubbed her forehead and sighed, "It seems you didn't listen to a word I said. I said... he's a very good hunter!"

The Miao Border girl laughed and said, "Yes, yes, just now you saw that although he was verbally teasing that female cultivator, he was constantly gathering strength in his hand, gripping that black longbow. Moreover, with his strength, it wouldn't be difficult for him to activate that black longbow several times, but he didn't release it. He was recovering his strength while waiting for someone to take the bait!"

The tall woman glanced at her a few times, frowned, and said, "Why do you seem to admire him?"

The Miao Border girl clapped her hands and said, "I just felt that he looked familiar. He's very smart and decisive."

The tall woman said, puzzled, "Familiar? Have we seen someone like this before?"

She couldn't help but think for a moment, Miao Border girl smiled and pointed to her own nose.

"Me!"

"Am I not the best hunter in the village?"

The tall woman. "..."

The Miao Border girl laughed and said, "Senior sister, what do you think about me capturing him and making him my husband? Could I tame such a fierce man?"

The tall woman exclaimed, "How could you have such a thought?"

The Miao Border girl laughed and said, "I drink the strongest liquor and find the most ruthless man. He has a bit of my personality, so is it strange that I'm interested in him?"

The tall woman exclaimed in surprise, "So many young men in the village have taken a liking to you, and young men from other villages are chasing after you like crazy, but I've never seen you show any interest in any of them. Why are you acting like you've been bewitched today?"

She found it hard to believe and reached out to touch the Miao Border girl's head.

The Miao Border girl pushed her hand away and said unhappily, "Senior sister, I don't have a fever, and I'm not confused."

The tall woman said seriously, "Of course I know you don't have a fever, you're just horny!"

Upon hearing this, the Miao Border girl puffed out her cheeks and put her hands on her hips in anger.

"Oh, so you actually said that about me!"

The Miao Border people are known for their boldness, casualness, and uninhibited speech.

She reached out and tickled the tall woman's armpit, and the two sisters started teasing each other, laughing hysterically.

After arguing for a while, the tall woman smiled and said, "You said you wanted to catch him and make him your husband, but he's already gone. Do you think you can just daydream about it?"

The Miao Border woman laughed and said, "Don't worry about that, I have my own way of doing it."

Her smile was mysterious, like a Fox that had just stolen some fish.

The tall woman shook her head and ignored her, wondering what nonsense she was spouting all day.

"Although my junior sister is beautiful, she's not very bright and loves to cause trouble. She'll probably suffer a lot if she travels the world alone in the future."

The tall woman thought to herself, then shook her head, and then a question arose in her mind.

Will it cause others to suffer a great loss, or will it cause you to suffer a great loss?

She was skeptical for a time.

Chen Wang returned to the Ethereal Immortal Sect, and by the time he arrived, his injuries had mostly healed.

His physical body is extremely strong, possessing powerful defense and a good recovery speed.

With the addition of healing pills, the wound had already scabbed over.

He changed into clean clothes, and no one else could tell.

At this time, he returned to his residence but did not retreat into seclusion; he also went outside.

Not all the Guest Elder of the Ethereal Immortal Sect harbored deep hatred for Chen Wang; they were generally indifferent to him, exchanging only a few words occasionally.

Chen Wang didn't try to curry favor with them and maintained social distance.

Chen Wang would occasionally practice his boxing while watching the sea of clouds on the mountaintop, but he didn't use any physical training Cultivation Method. Instead, he would practice casually to relax and soothe his State of Mind.

The magnificence of mountains and rivers, imprinted on the heart, can also help those who cultivate the Tao to attain enlightenment.

After greeting the others, Chen Wang returned to his residence and went into seclusion.

His place is deserted; hardly anyone comes here.

Chen Wang went to the Winter, and only in a private villa Winter did he feel at ease to examine the three corpses.

He took the items from the people and found three Storage Artifact, among which the young man's Storage Artifact was the most unexpected.

Chen Wang probed it with his Divine Sense, but couldn't open it.

The Storage Ring looked like it was made of iron, and was quite ordinary, which didn't quite match the young man's temperament.

The young man wanted every detail to show his nobility and uniqueness, but after Chen Wang examined it carefully, he discovered the ring's extraordinary nature. On the inside of the ring were two characters written in ancient seal script, "Square Inch".

"This should be a Storage Ring, but it even has a name."

Chen Wang has never seen Storage Artifact with a name before, but now his knowledge has increased a lot, and he knows that Storage Artifact with names are of very high quality, otherwise there would be no need to name them.

This made his heart burn even more intensely.

Before even checking the contents of the three people's Storage Artifact, they began to examine their personal weapons.

The Primal Chaos Banner, the Distant Light Sword, the Blazing Flame Sword, and the Demon Subduing Sword —these are four Spirit Artifact.

Among them, the bald old man's Demon Subduing Sword was of the highest quality. Although it looked like an ordinary iron sword, the Dao Resonance it contained was so strong that it made Chen Wang feel a little scared.

Moreover, it is imbued with extremely strong Sword Qi. With just a slight activation, a sharp Sword Qi will be unleashed, requiring him to expend very little power.

The bald old man always carried this sword with him. He was extremely skilled in swordsmanship and proficient in Sword Qi, which made his sword even more extraordinary.

Many thoughts arose in Chen Wang's mind, and he put away the four Spirit Artifact.

Now he is penniless, with only a few treasures left. He has gone bankrupt and spared no expense to acquire the three spirit medicine.

However, now that he has four more powerful Spirit Artifact, he is very satisfied.

He did not continue refining these Storage Artifact Storage Artifact, as they were not ordinary items and required some special methods to refine.

Chen Wang took out the Ancient Jade and prepared to read the remnants of the three people's souls first.

Of the three souls, the bald old man's soul was the most powerful.

He was a Foundation Establishment Great Perfection, and his soul strength was comparable to Chen Wang's.

He has cultivated for nearly three cycles of sixty years, so naturally he has such skill.

Although the young man had only been cultivating for a short time, he possessed extraordinary talent and a highly refined soul.

The only exception was the female cultivator, Song Yuzhu, who was slightly less capable. With her talent, she would have been considered a pillar and a future successor in a small sect.

However, within Dragon Head Mountain, he could only be considered top-tier, not a prodigy capable of carrying the banner.

After all, both Dragon Head Mountain and the Ethereal Immortal Sect are cultivation forces with Nascent Soul Old Ancestor.

soon,

Chen Wang began reading the soul memories of the three of them.

These souls are constantly dissipating, and with his abilities, he needs to refine them quickly, or things will change.

Chen Wang's Divine Sense had already been somewhat depleted, and now, using the Soul Searching Technique to read these souls caused beads of sweat the size of soybeans to appear on his forehead.

But it was all worth it in the end.

He studied for about the time it takes for two incense sticks to burn, as the memories in his mind kept assaulting his soul.

He struggled to calm his mind and prevent himself from being disturbed by external evils, and only then was he able to break free from this state.

The massive amount of information flooded his mind, giving him a headache.

Of course, it was mainly because of some memories of that bald old man.

This person has cultivated for nearly two hundred years, and has countless memories from his lifetime, including many battle scenes that left a deep impression on him.

At this moment, Chen Wang's mind was flooded with information, and he tried his best to digest this massive amount of data.

If it were an ordinary person, they would be turned into an idiot by the shock.

Those with weak resolve will also be affected by these memories, and for a long time they will be stuck in a state of confusion: Who am I? Where am I? What did I do? Who the hell am I?!

In this state of confusion, one cannot tell who they really are.

Chen Wang was already very familiar with this technique, and after meditating and regulating his breathing for a period of time, he successfully read all these memories.

Those scenes flashed through his mind like a movie.

The bald old man, Xuan Jian Real Person, had a wealth of memories, spanning from his youth to his old age.

He was a disciple of Dragon Head Mountain when he was young.

However, at that time his hair was very thick, black and long. At that time, his talent was not high, only considered below average, and he was not valued in the sect.

He was always at the bottom of the rankings in the outer sect competitions and could not be selected to enter the inner sect. However, although his talent was average, he practiced very hard and had a special obsession with swordsmanship.

And so, at the age of thirty-five, he finally passed the outer sect competition and entered the inner sect with the lowest score.

It was actually a coincidence. With his grades, he would be at the bottom of the inner sect and wouldn't be valued by anyone.

But after he turned sixty, he seemed to have unlocked a cheat code, and his aura became increasingly powerful.

He defeated a senior brother who had been famous for many years in a martial arts competition, which is why he was noticed by the sect.

After his 100th birthday, his cultivation level had firmly established him among the top three of his former fellow disciples.

When he was 130 years old, even some of his older senior brothers and elders could not compare to him. He was extremely powerful and could fight across borders.

The sword technique he used earlier was a fragment of a sword manual called "Calming the Waves".

When the sword technique came into his hands, it was incomplete, but he relied on that sword intent and pondered it on his own, and actually mastered the "Calming the Waves" technique! He blocked Chen Wang's path with one sword and forced Chen Wang back with another, all thanks to the "Calming the Waves" sword technique.

Chen Wang took a deep breath. After refining the bald old man's memories, his State of Mind actually improved.

This person was a Foundation Establishment Great Perfection, unlike ordinary people. Chen Wang had witnessed his entire life, and at this moment, he let out a long breath.

"Spring goes and autumn comes, cold and heat alternate. In the blink of an eye, I have witnessed the life of a Foundation Establishment Great Perfection sword cultivator, three cycles of glory and disgrace."

At this moment, Chen Wang's Dao heart became more solidified and unrestrained.

He didn't even notice these subtle changes.

This will greatly benefit his future cultivation in the Dao.

Such State of Mind into one's state of mind are unrelated to strength or cultivation level, but they are extremely rare and can play a crucial role at certain times!
