The Aftermath of Wuchao's Cultivation

"Cousin, our horse has run so far!"

The black and white horses gallop fast and steadily, and if you're not too concerned about sleep quality, you can even fall asleep while lying on their backs.

Moreover, white horses are good at traveling during the day, while black horses are good at traveling at night. The two horses can also recognize each other by leading each other, allowing them to travel day and night.

Zhang Xuezhou didn't have a strong sense of day and night, so when he couldn't sleep, he could only keep traveling.

When Rong Tianding woke up from the heat of the sun, he felt as if he had traveled hundreds of miles, nearly a thousand miles.

"This horse won't be able to run this far anymore!"

The Law Power that Venerable White Bone poured into these two spiritual Spirit Artifact was so pure that it was far beyond what a cultivator like Zhang Xuezhou, who was at the Consciousness Creation Realm, could compare to.

The opponent's Law Power could control the black and white twin horses for 30,000 miles. Zhang Xuezhou felt that if his Law Power was fully infused, he could only maintain a distance of 3,000 miles, which would be quite remarkable.

However, one good thing is that after Zhang Xuezhou infused the Spirit Artifact with his Law Power, he should be able to control it more freely, even when fighting on horseback.

After traveling for a day and a night, the black and white horses had covered nearly two thousand miles, which translates to almost a thousand miles as the crow flies.

Assuming they don't go astray and continue traveling at this pace for another day, Zhang Xuezhou estimates he should be able to return to Chang'an City.

He couldn't be bothered with the matter of the black and white twin horses; he just wanted to use them as much as possible while they were still usable.

The unsold Grain Avoidance Powder was used as military rations. After giving a portion to Rong Tianding, Zhang Xuezhou and the others didn't even dismount.

"The people from Huainan shouldn't be able to chase us here, right?"

"We have no grudge against the people of Huainan!"

"Too!"

Rong Tianding glanced back furtively, but snapped back to reality after Zhang Xuezhou reminded him.

The matter of protecting Brother Rulai should come to an end, and given their method of fleeing on horseback, no one else could catch up with them.

"It's a pity we don't know where that old man from the Agricultural Sect family lives. Otherwise, we could have gone there on our way!"

Zhang Xuezhou's physical condition made it difficult for him to advance in cultivation, while Rong Tianding lacked the orthodox cultivation methods of the Shijiao School and had never dared to continue his cultivation.

He could only mutter to himself, persisting in his Five Qi Converging toward the Origin Cultivation.

Zhang Xuezhou, on the other hand, lay listlessly on the horse's back.

He acquired many classical books, but either he couldn't understand them, or even if he did, he couldn't use them.

He learned from his Rulai brother, Tathagata, about the possible way to open the Yin-Yang Sacred Land, but it was of little use.

Rong Tianding's Five Qi Converging toward the Origin can accumulate cultivation, but Zhang Xuezhou learned it but it was useless, as all his cultivation was accumulated in his Yang Corporeal Soul Dharma Form.

He tried to steal some gold and silver, but he didn't succeed.

It seems that Zhang Xuezhou's use of the Soul-Upsetting Beast Control Technique worked, but that wasn't in this world; it even included the Soul-Seizing Incantation taught Rulai his senior brother, Buddha.

Life is so turbulent that Zhang Xuezhou felt the bumps on horseback were nothing.

He lazily pondered how to steadily improve his fortune in Chang'an City, and his mind was filled with various plans.

It wasn't until Rong Tianding exclaimed, "That... that General Zhang, and that shop owner who bought the painting," that Zhang Xuezhou came back to his senses.

The sun was beginning to set in the west, and as Zhang Xuezhou turned his head, he realized that he had run ahead of Zhang Qian and Wu Chao.

Zhang Qian and Wu Chao both rode horses, and even had spare mounts.

However, compared to the steady and steady gallop of the black and white horses, the two men's mounts were clearly several levels inferior. Not only did they look tired, but their speed was also far slower, and the guest of the King of Huainan's Household whom they were escorting had also disappeared.

"Senior brother, Ziwen!"

Zhang Xuezhou waved to them, and the black and white horses immediately slowed down.

How come you ran so fast?

Not only was Zhang Qian surprised, but even Wu Chao was astonished.

Wu Chao knew fairly well when Zhang Xuezhou had woken up, but he hadn't expected that his two days of riding on horseback would be less than what Zhang Xuezhou could cover in a single day.

"Junior brother, is that a BMW?!"

Wu Chao watched for a while before he could tell the difference between the mounts ridden by Zhang Xuezhou and Rong Tianding.

How did you get your hands on it?

Wu Chao had also seen the Venerable White Bone's black and white twin horses, but Zhang Xuezhou rarely showed off this set of Spirit Artifact, and Wu Chao was even unaware that Zhang Xuezhou possessed such a treasure.

He repeatedly praised Zhang Xuezhou had snatched the treasure from the jaws of the Venerable White Bone.

"Our cheap teacher still has some dignity after all," Zhang Xuezhou laughed. "This is a return gift from him, I just took it!"

"A return gift from Master Hongku?"

Zhang Xuezhou explained the origin of the Spirit Artifact, but Wu Chao was still a little bit further away from it.

Having finally gotten rid of Hongku, Wu Chao would never even think of getting close to him again, not even if Hongku brought him a great treasure to show off.

Moreover, Wu Chao's most important matter at the moment does not involve Hongku, but rather the Yin Yang Nine People Sect Realm Technique he has cultivated, as well as the Following Like a Shadow Technique provided by Jin Chang.

"Junior brother, did you get your hands on those things in Jin Chang?"

Setting aside the matter of the black and white horses, Wu Chao quickly inquired about what he needed.

This made Zhang Xuezhou nod.

"He wrote all the methods on bamboo slips, and I had him recite them to me dictally, so they should be true!"

Zhang Xuezhou made a hand seal, and then began to take out bamboo slips from his storage bag.

"This destructive cultivation method finally has a sequel!"

Wu Chao was overjoyed.

He took the bamboo slip from Zhang Xuezhou on horseback, and felt the tension that had been building up in his head for years finally ease.

"Don't worry, junior brother. If I were even slightly more capable, I would definitely travel west to retrieve what you need!"

Wu Chao did not immediately immerse himself in studying and cultivating. Instead, he made repeated assurances and waited until Zhang Xuezhou nodded before he finally focused his mind on it.

"Manqian, what westward journey? Wasn't he going to take me to the Xiong State?" Zhang Qian exclaimed.

"We can't get to the north of the Xiong State; we have to go around to the west. That's how I've always gone around," Zhang Xuezhou replied casually.

"Oh well!"

Zhang Qian nodded, relieved.

Wu Chao's gaze wasn't fixed on the black and white horses, but Zhang Qian's eyes were fixed on these two extremely agile mounts.

He needed to hold the reins, watch the road, and leap to prevent the jolts from his horse when riding, but Zhang Qian discovered that Zhang Xuezhou and Rong Tianding did not.

The two men sat on the horses as if they were sitting on flat ground, and didn't even control their mounts, letting them gallop forward at will.

"That's a fine horse!"

Zhang Qian had seen many excellent steeds in the military region, but none of them could match this level of skill.

He stared at them for a while before noticing other unusual features about the two horses.

Humans sweat when they exercise, and horses are no exception.

Horses not only sweat, but their body temperature can also become extremely high.

However, neither Zhang Xuezhou nor Rong Tianding's mounts broke a sweat. When Zhang Qian spurred his mount to catch up, he reached out and touched the horse's mane, feeling a silky, icy sensation mixed with a chilling aura. This made him belatedly realize that these mounts were no ordinary creatures.

"Manqian, where did this horse come from?" Zhang Qian asked.

"You should know that the Xiong State is vast and rich in resources!"

"So your horse comes from the Xiong State?"

"Yes, I got it from the Xiong State!"

"Really?"

I'd be a dog if I lied!

Zhang Xuezhou patted his chest and guaranteed, which made Zhang Qian's head throb. He felt that the Xiong State had too many treasures, and his longing for the scenery beyond the border grew even stronger.
