You can't plaster mud onto a wall

"That's impossible!"

"Something's not right!"

"How come I can't even enter the first level of the Nine-Man Curse after taking the pill?!"

Zhang Xuezhou, have you been diligently cultivating yourself?

"You take your medicine, you cultivate yourself, I'll watch!"

"And the results?"

"I've used forty-two Origin-Nurturing Pill and sixteen Spirit-Forging Pill on you, give me back my pills!"

Jin Chang treated Zhang Xuezhou with gentle words for seven days, but by the eighth day, he had fallen into despair, unable to solve the problem.

Zhang Xuezhou took the pills as instructed and also tried to cultivate the Zhang Xuezhou -Yin Yang Great Joy Nine People Incantation as required, but his Zhang Xuezhou yielded no results whatsoever.

This was the result he had witnessed Zhang Xuezhou achieve through his cultivation.

It was as if there was a black hole in his body; no matter what methods Jin Chang used, he could not enable Zhang Xuezhou to achieve the fusion and upward advancement of the Yin-Yang School's realm techniques.

He couldn't even successfully advance the first level, let alone get Zhang Xuezhou to advance the Yin Yang Great Joy Nine People Incantation to the sixth level to maintain the balance of the realm technique.

Jin Chang was very anxious.

He had never seen Zhang Xuezhou, such a hopeless case.

He never imagined the other party would be this rotten.

"Uncle-Master, are you hiding something? I really can't improve my cultivation."

"I didn't hide anything, you owe me back my pills! I've gone into a huge debt because of you pushing my cultivation forward!"

Upon hearing Zhang Xuezhou's explanation, Jin Chang's anger flared even more.

If it weren't for the final part of the Yin Yang Great Compassion Nine Heavens Incantation, he wouldn't have done such a thing.

The result of accumulating a mountain of debt proved that Zhang Xuezhou's body was unsuitable for cultivation.

Jin Chang recalled everything, but he still couldn't understand Zhang Xuezhou's cultivation level. The other party had cultivated rapidly over the years, so there was no reason why he couldn't make progress in his cultivation.

"Uncle-Master, how about we try again?"

"I'm not going to try! I don't want to try at all!"

Jin Chang looked dejected.

The pills that propelled Zhang Xuezhou to cultivate the Yin Yang Great Joy Nine People Incantation couldn't be described as expensive, after all, the quantity of pills for those below the Divine Ability Realm was limited, and many pills were worth less than two pills for those at the Divine Ability Realm. However, this still made things even worse for the already impoverished Jin Chang.

"My cultivation is so poor because I take too many medicines. Let's try other methods," Zhang Xuezhou pleaded. "Didn't you say before that our Yin-Yang School has a secret place? If we can find that secret place, there will be countless Spiritual Qi. As long as I lie in that place, even if my body is bad, I will definitely be able to improve my cultivation!"

"The Yin-Yang Sacred Land... I don't even know the way myself, how am I supposed to lead you there? If it were such a good thing, would you even get a chance?"

Jin Chang was both frustrated and furious, cursing and shouting, but he couldn't help but consider the feasibility of the matter.

If Zhang Xuezhou doesn't generate demand, Zou Bugui has no chance of teaching.

Zou Bugui home, Zhang Xuezhou would have no chance of obtaining the eighth level of the Yin Yang Great Compassion Nine Heavens Incantation, and he would have no hope of reaching the True Self Realm.

After going through a long and winding road, Jin Chang found himself ultimately having to cultivate himself and improve his life while carrying this burden.

He felt that no great cultivator had ever faced greater difficulties in his cultivation. It wasn't just a matter of Jin Chang's own cultivation; he also had to cultivate techniques and support his family.

After swearing, Jin Chang's gentle demeanor vanished. He sat sullenly in the rattan chair, then picked up a dry twig and gestured repeatedly on the ground.

Jin Chang does indeed have some clues related to the Yin-Yang Sacred Land, but this is not fortuitous opportunity left for Zhang Xuezhou. It is fortuitous opportunity that he seeks to promote the breakthrough to the True Self Realm.

But right now, everything is stuck at the eighth level of the Yin Yang Great Compassion Nine Heavens Incantation.

Jin Chang wanted Zhang Xuezhou to integrate the Yin-Yang and Yang realm techniques to form a dependency, thus binding him to him in the future, which would force him to give him the eighth level of the Yin Yang Great Compassion Nine Heavens Incantation.

This kind of binding would make Zhang Xuezhou take the initiative, and would also eliminate any ulterior motives the other party might have.

Everything was planned perfectly, the only drawback being that Zhang Xuezhou couldn't cultivate.

If the other party cannot cultivate, they cannot enter the Divine Ability Realm, Zou Bugui to ask for the last part of the realm technique.

The situation has essentially fallen apart at this point.

If Jin Chang cannot come up with a solution, he can only rush into the Xieluosi River Holy Land to Zou Bugui, or create his own solution.

The former requires facing numerous powerful demons in the Xieluosi River Holy Land, while the latter requires Jin Chang to travel alone.

"How is Senior Brother Zhou doing at the Xieluosi River Holy Land?" Jin Chang thought for a moment before tentatively asking, "What I mean is, Senior Brother Zhou is getting old. If your cultivation is too slow, will he be able to endure so many years?"

"My godfather has settled down in the Venerable One's secret place," Zhang Xuezhou said, shaking his head. "It's the secret place under the big lake in the Xieluosi River Holy Land. The last time I saw him, he was radiant. As long as the Venerable One doesn't eat him, my godfather should be able to live for another ten years or so."

"Locked in Zhu Jiuyin's secret realm?"

Zhang Xuezhou's casual reply almost chilled Jin Chang's heart.

If Zou Bugui were only staying in the Xieluosi River Holy Land, Jin Chang could still sneak in and see him. But since Zou Bugui was staying in the Venerable's secret place, Jin Chang had no way of sneaking in.

Even cultivators at the True Self Realm wouldn't dare to venture into such a secret place, let alone face an old demon like Zhu Jiuyin.

Zhang Xuezhou's news was extremely bad, shattering Jin Chang's little scheme.

The only advantage is that Zou Bugui in a secret place, which has Spiritual Qi that can cleanse the body and prolong life. Zou Bugui will not die of old age anytime soon.

"You're not lying to me?" Jin Chang asked.

"I went into that secret place last time," Zhang Xuezhou said. "The entrance to the Venerable One's secret place is guarded by five dragon kings, and the entrance is blocked by a three-zhang-high stone gate. The scene inside and outside the secret place is completely different. The secret place beneath the lake water is filled with the aura of scorching flames, and there is also the Venerable One's palace, as well as a thick iron chain pillar, on which coils a hundred-zhang-long fiery red behemoth..."

Zhang Xuezhou spoke eloquently, while Jin Chang couldn't help but swallow hard.

Compared to the enormous demonic body that His Majesty manifested in Lingnan, His Majesty's true demonic body is even larger.

This is an existence that no normal human cultivator can match. Jin Chang felt that even if he had the opportunity to enter the secret place, he would still be whipped to death by the Venerable One's tail.

He shivered.

Jin Chang simply aspires to the True Self Realm and wants to stand at the pinnacle of cultivation. He is an radical but not a fanatic.

Moreover, Jin Chang felt he still had his senses.

Compared to taking his senior brother Longkou, Jin Chang felt that supporting Zhang Xuezhou, this piece of trash, would be easier.

"I'm relieved that my senior brother can retire in a place like this," Jin Chang sighed. "Our Yin-Yang School's Sacred Land can't be found in a short time. Even I would have to put in a lot of effort and time to find it. I'm afraid we won't last long enough for our senior brother to live."

"Then we need to speed things up," Zhang Xuezhou said. "Uncle-Master, tell me what you're looking for, and I'll help you search!"

"No need, it's more convenient for me to go look for it myself," Jin Chang waved his hand and refused. "There are some extremely dangerous traps and mechanisms there. I'm afraid you'll lose your life because of them. I'll call you over after I've checked the risks, and try to get your physical cultivation back to normal!"

Jin Chang glanced at Zhang Xuezhou.

The Nine Heavens Sect excels in formations and alchemy, and even if Zhang Xuezhou cultivates to the Body Transformation Realm, he is still just a nobody.

Jin Chang had spent a long time with Zhang Xuezhou and knew that this guy's specialties were either playing dirty tricks or running away.

Jin Chang felt that sending Zhang Xuezhou to help investigate the Yin-Yang Sacred Land would not only bring no benefit, but would also implicate him.
