Mountain-Moving Ancestor

"Profound Passage Classic."

Li Xiuwen took the ancient book and brushed off the dust.

"Steal the workings of yin and yang!"

"Pierce the transformations between darkness and light!"

One glance was enough for Li Xiuwen to feel knowledge drilling into his head. This was a book of theory far beyond his current level.

Elder Feng asked with a half-smile:

Li Xiuwen answered honestly:

Elder Feng said, "The author of the Profound Passage Classic was Cao Mang, the founder of the Moving-Mountain Style, a tomb-robbing school of the Great Ying Dynasty. Later generations called him the Mountain-Moving Ancestor. His learning spanned heaven and earth, and his mastery reached the workings of creation itself. Not only did his Martial Way attainments rival those of a Land Immortal, he was also versed in Martial Way Metaphysics and the arts of gates and formations. Over his lifetime, he plundered hundreds of royal and Martial Way tombs, amassed wealth to rival a nation, and gathered countless Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures and Divine Weapons. The powerful figures of his era also called him the 'Tomb King,' the 'Tomb-Robbing Sage,' and 'King Cao the Thief.'

"They say that before he died, he concealed the treasures he had collected throughout his life in a secret place among the mountains and rivers of the Prosperous State, called Cao Mang's Great Tomb. He used Martial Way Metaphysics so profound that no one could unravel it. For a century after his death, countless Martial Artists studied Martial Way Metaphysics in hopes of finding the tomb. You can guess the result: not one of them found it...
