Seeing the expression on the Shameless Cat's face, Yang Zhen asked curiously, "Do you know that guy inside the Nine Dragons Pulling a Coffin?"
Although he didn't know who was lying inside the Nine Dragons Pulling a Coffin, Yang Zhen could tell from the aura inside that if the person were to be resurrected, he would definitely be a powerful expert at the Great Saint level.
Who exactly is this Shameless Cat? How does he know so many Great Saint?
Seeing the strange expression on Yang Zhen's High Antiquity, the Shameless Cat hesitated for a moment before saying, "It seems like I know him, but it also seems like I don't. If I remember correctly, only the Nine Dragons Great Saint could pull Nine Dragons Pulling a Coffin like that. I didn't expect that even he couldn't escape this calamity."
Who is it?
Han Yan'er asked curiously from the side. At this moment, she had already forgotten that Yang Zhen had repeatedly said that she was Yang Zhen's woman.
The sheer scale of the Nine Dragons Pulling a Coffin was overwhelming, truly awe-inspiring. Cultivators in the Cultivation World could never have imagined that such a terrifying existence existed in this world.
The Shameless Cat frowned and said, "I don't remember very clearly, but it seems to be a person named Yuan Xiuzhu. He was a Great Saint, no doubt. He was on good terms with that guy back then. When that guy single-handedly and angrily slashed through three hundred and sixty Heavenly Tribulation, Yuan Xiuzhu was right beside him."
Yang Zhen asked with curiosity, "What exactly happened to that guy? How dare he single-handedly and angrily slay three hundred and sixty Heavenly Tribulation? Did the heavens eat his rice?"
The Shameless Cat glanced at Yang Zhen and said, "Kid, you don't need to ask about this. Even if you asked, I wouldn't know. It was a mystery back then, let alone now. In fact, it's already quite remarkable that people today still remember that such a person existed. Do you think that an existence that the world wants to erase can be passed down so easily?"
Yang Zhen pursed his lips and said, "Fine, we won't ask. The world has recovered, and these secrets will come to light sooner or later. Now that everything is alright here, let's hurry up and set off. If the Great You Dynasty goes crazy and tries to cause trouble for Chiding Dragon, the Shangyuan Sect might not be able to withstand it."
The three of them emerged from the Abyss and felt much better after seeing the long-awaited sunlight.
Han Yan'er's cultivation level had been improving rapidly along the way, but Yang Zhen felt that the speed was still a bit slow.
With the world now recovering, all sorts of powerful figures have emerged. Although today's incident was alarming but ultimately harmless, Yang Zhen still felt somewhat uneasy.
If he were not by Han Yan'er's side one day, let alone facing Half-Step Great Saint, even a Celestial Phenomenon Realm expert would be very dangerous for Han Yan'er.
Along the way, Yang Zhen pondered that it seemed necessary to help Han Yan'er improve her cultivation level.
However, improving one's cultivation level is not something that can be done overnight. Yang Zhen can cultivate rapidly, but his talent is limited. Han Yan'er is different; her talent is not very strong, at least not several times stronger than that of the young girl, let alone Yang Zhen's level.
Han Yan'er seemed to realize the problem as well, and came to Yang Zhen's side and said softly, "If there is any danger, I don't have to stay by your side."
The implication was clear: Han Yan'er did not want to become a burden to Yang Zhen.
Given Han Yan'er's stubborn and strong-willed personality, one can imagine how painful it must have been for her to say such a thing.
Yang Zhen gave Han Yan'er Han Yan'er deep look, took her hand, and said in a deep voice, "Remember what I told you? You are my family. If anyone dares to hurt you, even if it's the Heavenly Laozi, I'll teach him a lesson."
"But..." Han Yan'er hesitated, but Yang Zhen silenced her with a heavy kiss.
At this moment, heaven and earth came together.
After a long while, Yang Zhen grinned, looked into Han Yan'er's eyes, and said, "Don't worry, although cultivation isn't something that can be achieved overnight, there are still many ways to improve your realm. There are no side effects, and I guarantee you can climb eighteen floors in one go without getting tired at all."
Han Yan'er glared at Yang Zhen, then turned her head away. This time, she didn't draw the Sun Shadow Sacred Sword, and lightly spat out, "You're so frivolous!"
Yang Zhen was overjoyed. Han Yan'er, without her sword drawn, was breathtakingly beautiful. Every move she made was mesmerizing, especially her Long Legs, which were simply irresistible.
Looking at the graceful Han Yan'er with her head bowed, Yang Zhen felt a surge of pride and patted his chest, saying, "I'll make this clear today: after we bring the sect leader and the others back, I'll raise both of your cultivation levels to the Celestial Phenomenon Realm."
A hint of joy flashed across Han Yan'er's face. Since Yang Zhen said such a thing, he must be able to do it, and without any aftereffects.
Han Yan'er originally thought her cultivation speed was fast enough, but now it seems that, facing the endless stream of powerful figures, even with Yang Zhen as her Dao Entry, her cultivation speed is still somewhat lagging behind.
If she could improve her cultivation level without any worries, Han Yan'er would be very tempted.
The three of them traveled westward without encountering any people from the Great You Dynasty, but they heard quite a bit about the story of the Nine Dragons Pulling a Coffin.
Some say that the Nine Dragons Pulling a Coffin came from the Nine Heavens, that it was a celestial being descending to earth to seek the War God to pass on his legacy.
Some say that the Nine Dragons Pulling a Coffin actually comes from the Nine Nether Purgatory, and is Demon God from hell coming to destroy the world.
Amidst the conflicting opinions, Yang Zhen and the others were left speechless.
"These people are talking nonsense. They don't know anything about it, they're just spreading rumors. Rumors can spread like wildfire, and public opinion can be a powerful force to be reckoned with," said the Shameless Cat, shaking its head, attracting stares from passersby.
"What do you, a mere cat demon, know? My master's third cousin personally witnessed the Nine Dragons Pulling a Coffin from the Nine Nether Purgatory, destroying three great mountains along the way before finally disappearing into the Western Realm."
Upon hearing this, the surrounding crowd was immediately Celestial Person and naturally gathered around the person.
Yang Zhen and the Shameless Cat were taken aback. After exchanging glances, they followed suit and squeezed into the crowd.
Han Yan'er looked at the two curious children, the person and the cat, and was both amused and exasperated, but she had no choice but to follow them inside.
Once inside, Han Yan'er almost drew her sword and killed the two bastards.
Yang Zhen and the Shameless Cat squatted on the ground, looking at the nonsensical cultivator in front of them with adoration, their expressions showing utter astonishment.
If Han Yan'er hadn't witnessed Yang Zhen riding the Nine Dragons Pulling a Coffin out of the dark water, she would have believed that Yang Zhen and that Shameless Cat had never seen the Nine Dragons Pulling a Coffin before.
"You have no idea how terrifying the situation was back then. It felt like the entire world was about to be destroyed. My master's third cousin is a powerful expert at the Celestial Phenomenon Realm. Have you heard of the Great You Dynasty? He is an inner disciple of the Separation Hall of the Great You Dynasty."
The cultivator spoke eloquently, glancing around at the crowd, his gaze lingering for a moment on the faces of Yang Zhen and the two devoted admirers, the Shameless Cat. Satisfied, he continued, "It's said that back then, the sky was dark and chaotic. My master's third cousin used all his strength but still couldn't get close to the Nine Dragons Pulling a Coffin. He could only return to the sect to report. This time, so many powerful figures from the Great You Dynasty have come specifically for the Nine Dragons Pulling a Coffin. And do you know where the Nine Dragons Pulling a Coffin went?"
"Where did you go?" Yang Zhen asked with admiration.
"Hey, after I say this, you'd better not spread it around, otherwise offending the Great You Dynasty will bring bad consequences for everyone."
The cultivator spoke mysteriously, prompting the crowd to press him for more information.
"Fellow Daoist, hurry up and tell me!"
"Exactly, you've kept us in suspense for so long without telling us. You're doing this on purpose, aren't you?"
"It is said that the Nine Dragons Pulling a Coffin disappeared in the far west, and now countless cultivators are rushing towards the far west. Where exactly did they end up?"
A group of people discussed among themselves, and eventually all their eyes fell on the cultivator from before.
The cultivator coughed lightly and said mysteriously, "I suppose you can't get accurate information either. I am one of the few who knows the exact details. The Nine Dragons Pulling a Coffin actually landed in a Land of Nine Dragons."
"Where is the Land of Nine Dragons?" Yang Zhen's heart skipped a beat, and for some reason, she suddenly had a bad feeling.
" The Land of Nine Dragons is a natural terrain formed at the Opening Heaven, said to be the land where Nine Dragons coiled and shaped the sky. The specific location seems to be near the mountainside of a place called White Cloud Mountain."
boom--!
Yang Zhen's mind went blank.
