After repeatedly casting the Lesser Soul-Erasing Art on the black-robed man's Storage Ring a thousand times, and then strengthening the Lesser Soul-Erasing Art a second time, Chen Changming erased the mental imprint on it.
His expression brightened with joy.
He is currently at the peak of the Qi Cultivation Level 10. He can use this Lesser Soul-Erasing Art to erase the Storage Ring of Foundation Establishment cultivator. If he strengthens it again, he should be able to open the Storage Ring of a third-level Foundation Establishment cultivator.
Taking out the other two Storage Ring, Chen Changming used the Lesser Soul-Erasing Art to remove all the marks on them.
After searching through the three Storage Ring, Chen Changming found a copy of the " Three Talents Sword Formation Manual," 15,000 Spirit Stone, ten Hemostasis Pill, and a token indicating that he was an outer disciple of the Black Lotus Sect.
"These three guys are really poor..."
Chen Changming snorted coldly.
What he didn't know was that the Mei Brothers Trio were originally three rogue cultivators who were poor to begin with, and even after joining the Black Lotus Sect, their dire situation did not improve.
Chen Changming took out the Three Talents Sword Formation Manual, glanced at it, and a look of joy immediately appeared on his face.
This sword formation is quite powerful; he has personally experienced it. If his Body Cultivator was only at the second level of the Foundation Establishment Realm, then he would have no chance of survival under this sword formation.
This sword formation requires three people to practice simultaneously to master.
"If I break through to the Foundation Establishment and begin cultivating the Three-Nine Divine Aperture Technique, and am able to divide my Divine Sense into three, then I can learn the Three Talents Sword Formation Manual."
Chen Changming muttered to himself.
In this way, he alone can set up the Three Talents Sword Formation to kill enemies.
If this Three Talents Sword Formation is strengthened, he will likely be able to control even more Flying Sword to enhance the formation's power.
Upon thinking about it, he became extremely excited.
However, this excitement only lasted for a few breaths before disappearing, replaced by a heavy sense of oppression.
Now, the entire Black Lotus Sect is frantically searching for him.
Even in a small mountain village like White Ape Village, it's not safe to be there.
Thinking of this, Chen Changming threw everything into the Beast Taming Bracelet, and then pulled the Spirit-Devouring Insect out from his chest.
"There's nothing you can do but go into hiding for a while."
He gave a slight wry smile and placed the Spirit-Devouring Insect into the Beast Taming Bracelet as well.
In this way, he no longer possessed any cultivator's items. Chen Changming glanced at the sky and noticed that the sun was rising higher and higher. He quickly dug a small pit three meters deep in the house, put the Beast Taming Bracelet in, then filled it with soil, compacted it, and scattered a lot of loose soil from the surrounding area to make it look no different from the rest of the ground.
Having done all this, he felt a little relieved.
If a Foundation Establishment cultivator were to pass through White Ape Village, they could scan the entire village with their Divine Sense and find no one or anything related to cultivators, thus ensuring their safety.
Chen Changming believed that, without discovering any cultivators in White Ape Village, it was impossible for the Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Black Lotus Sect to use their Divine Sense to scan the three-meter-deep underground of an old house.
"Call..."
Chen Changming let out a soft breath, feeling much more relaxed, and began tidying up the house.
An hour passed.
Chen Changming saw several Foundation Establishment cultivators flying across the sky from the window.
"They arrived relatively quickly..."
Chen Changming smiled faintly and continued tidying up the house.
Throughout the day, waves of Foundation Establishment cultivators flew back and forth, extremely busy. Chen Changming roughly calculated that at least six waves of Foundation Establishment cultivators flew over White Ape Village.
Some Foundation Establishment cultivators even paused in the air for a moment, scanned the area, and flew away after finding nothing.
The next day, Foundation Establishment cultivators continued to fly to and fro.
This phenomenon lasted for a month, and the frequency of Foundation Establishment cultivators coming and going began to decrease, with at most one group of Foundation Establishment cultivators flying by each day. After another month, this frequency decreased again.
Six months later.
Almost no Foundation Establishment cultivators could be seen flying by.
Chen Changming did not let his guard down. He knew that the Black Lotus Sect's Holy Mother Wusheng was determined to obtain the Three-Nine Divine Aperture Technique and would not give up easily.
If he relaxes his guard, he is very likely to be discovered by the Black Lotus Sect.
During the past six months, Chen Changming did not cultivate at all. He simply cleaned up the weeds in the yard and planted some crops, just like a villager.
The west wing has also been repaired.
They also made their own furniture, including a bed, table, and stools.
In his spare time, he would go to the homes of other elders to help with farm work and chat with them.
As for paying respects to his parents and grandparents, he did so on the second day after entering White Ape Village.
At this moment, Chen Changming had completely integrated into White Ape Village and lived like an ordinary countryman.
Two more months passed.
No more Foundation Establishment cultivators flew across the sky.
"We must never let our guard down..."
Chen Changming secretly cheered himself up. He now needed to fight a protracted war with the Black Lotus Sect, relying on time and patience.
One year after entering White Ape Village.
Chen Changming remained as steady as an old dog, not cultivating, and busy with various farm work during the day.
On this day, he was weeding in the field when he inadvertently looked up and saw a group of Foundation Establishment cultivators flying over and landing motionless above White Ape Village.
This time, these Foundation Establishment cultivators deliberately lowered their altitude, so almost all of the hundreds of villagers in White Ape Village could see them.
"Amazing!"
An elderly man became excited and immediately knelt on the ground.
The other villagers from White Ape Village also knelt down.
Chen Changming put down his hoe and knelt down, imitating the others.
These Foundation Establishment cultivators floated in the air with indifferent expressions, simultaneously releasing their Divine Sense to scan everyone in the entire White Ape Village.
After a scan.
Disappointed, everyone shook their heads and flew away on their swords.
A considerable amount of time passed.
Chen Changming stood up, picked up the hoe, and continued to weed silently.
The Black Lotus Sect is truly relentless.
The previous large-scale search yielded no results, so they deliberately held back for a month before suddenly dispatching a large number of Foundation Establishment cultivators to conduct a thorough search, leaving no one undetected.
If he cultivated during this period and generated fluctuations in Spiritual Qi, or if he leaked his aura, the Black Lotus Sect would definitely discover it.
"No rush, wait patiently. Given time, once the Black Lotus Sect's search within the Chu Kingdom territory proves fruitless, they should shift their focus to other countries..."
Chen Changming thought to himself.
The fortuitous opportunity he had obtained this time was truly astonishing, and he had offended a powerful sect with extraordinary strength, so Chen Changming felt that even if he had to endure it for a few more years, it would be worth it.
After all, if a Golden Core Breakthrough Secret Method were to be revealed, the major powers in the nearby countries that do not have Golden Core stage would probably go crazy.
This Secret Method is simply too overpowered.
If you succeed in cultivating this technique, your chances of breaking through to the Golden Core stage will greatly increase.
Cuixia Mountain.
Inside the Council Hall.
" Fellow Daoist Luo, your junior brother hasn't returned yet. He must have been eaten by Demon Beast after he and Fellow Daoist Ouyang and the other two entered the Demonic Qi Region..."
The True Essence Master, holding his teacup, spoke calmly.
After he finished speaking, he observed Luo Lan's expression.
"Junior brother, you died a terrible death..."
Luo Lan's eyes reddened, tears fell, and she began to sob softly.
Seeing Luo Lan's True Intention tears, the True Essence Master silently took a sip of tea and advised, " Fellow Daoist Luo, the dead cannot be brought back to life. Don't be too sad. The Demonic Qi Well has not yet been eliminated, and the hidden dangers remain enormous. We cannot let our guard down..."
"I understand, Master."
Luo Lan nodded gravely, then suddenly said in a hateful voice, "I must destroy the Demonic Qi Well to avenge my junior brother!"
