Yinshan Record

Chapter 319 What is the Hidden Clues and Intrigues Within?
While Su Che was hesitating about his future path, the Yin-Yang Dharma King was also watching him.

Having survived from the time of the Five Emperors of the Ancient Heavenly Court to the present day, the Yin-Yang Dharma King truly deserves the title of "old monster."

Given his extensive knowledge and experience, he couldn't help but be surprised by the speed of Su Che's cultivation.

In such a short period of time, Su Che made great progress, established himself at the pinnacle of power, and stepped onto the threshold of the fifth rank in the Xuanmen. Looking back through the ages, he can be called a "hero".

Even though this was the result of guidance from Zhongyuan, Beimang Ghost Ancestor, and himself, it still demonstrates the talent of Young Master Su.

If the Yin-Yang Dharma King hadn't been absolutely certain that Su Che was not some ancient great being reincarnated, he might have suspected that Su Che was merely a remnant of Ling Wei Yang's spirit.

Zhongyuan is indeed a master strategist with unparalleled wisdom; his choice of Su Che as his advisor was truly ingenious.

Countless eyes in this realm are now fixed on this Six Harmonies Azure Dragon, believing it to be Ling Weiyang reincarnated.

In this way, many things, such as Tingyu Tower and the Ghost Festival, could unfold quietly and be slowly planned in secret.

Since that's the case, the Yin-Yang Dharma King felt he might as well add fuel to the fire, since it wouldn't be a bad thing for Su boy anyway.

"Speaking of the Yinshan Cave Netherworld Treasure Talisman, I have seen it before. Back then, your ancestor, Huangtian Daoist, and His Majesty the Black Emperor were deducing this method together, and I was serving them on the sidelines."

The Yin-Yang Dharma King had the air of someone who had been through countless battles and was very knowledgeable.

"Young Su, do you know what happened outside the Nine Heavens Domain after you became the cardinal?"

"what happened?"

The Yin-Yang Dharma King raised one finger and pointed upwards.

"Two great demon lords, one from the south and one from the north, are coming across the sky to corrupt you, boy."

Su Che knew that those who attained immortality in the Demonic Sect were called "Six Desires Heavenly Demons" and were also revered as "Demon Lords".

Those who can attain immortality truly deserve the title of ruler.

I am not worthy of such a highly accomplished person who has attained immortality and is here to greet me.

"The taller the tree, the more the wind will blow. Some people are mistaking you for the reincarnation of Ling Weiyang and want to take advantage of you."

The Yin-Yang Dharma King looked at Su Che and said.

"I am the reincarnation of Ling Weiyang. What do I have to do with them? Do you want to become my disciple?"

Sigh, that Su kid...

The Yin-Yang Dharma King shook his head.

"Do you know that the fundamental path of the Demonic Sect lies in the four words 'transformation and freedom'?"

Su Che calmed down, watching the charcoal fire in the red clay stove while listening to the lecture given by the senior Yin-Yang Dharma King.

According to the Yin-Yang Dharma King, the mystery of the Demonic Sect lies in the four words "transformation into freedom".

To put it simply, it involves seizing the cultivation of others to achieve one's own goals.

Therefore, the Demonic Sect can be said to be the great enemy of all other cultivators, because the Demonic Sect's cultivation is the true embodiment of the four words "harming others to benefit oneself". Behind the rise of every immortal Demon Lord are countless white bones of cultivators who died and disappeared.

This process of acquisition is called "demonic contamination." During the process of demonic contamination, not only can demonic cultivators gradually transform the supernatural powers and magic accumulated by others into their own, but they can also learn and even master the mysteries of others' laws and principles.

The Five Emperors of the Five Directions were ancient immortals who attained enlightenment. Their profound laws and vast supernatural powers, even if only a fraction of them remained in their reincarnations, were enough for demonic cultivators to enjoy for a long time.

Let alone the Demon Lord who has attained immortality, the Yin-Yang Dharma King believes that even those Dharma Lords who have reached the pinnacle of this world would find it difficult to resist such temptation.

As Su Che listened to the Yin-Yang Dharma King's account, he felt that his future was bleak.

Good guy.

He has just established his position and hasn't even achieved the elixir of immortality yet. If he were to attain immortality in the future, wouldn't he be served by the Lord of the End of Dharma in turn?
Su Che had witnessed the scene when Yu Lizi attained immortality. The Lord of the End of Dharma, carrying supreme demonic power, swept in from beyond the Nine Heavens. If Yu Lizi hadn't accumulated immense power, his cheap master would probably have become a demon servant. "Sigh, then why didn't they come?"

"Why didn't they come? They were blocked from coming."

The Yin-Yang Dharma King was secretly pleased when he saw the hint of darkness flash in Su Che's eyes. This was exactly what he had been waiting for.

He remained nonchalant and said, "Don't worry, you haven't forgotten that you have a powerful backer, have you?"

Oh right, we are still disciples of Huang Tiandao. No, if being a disciple of Huang Tiandao is so prestigious, why did Master Yu Lizi suffer the calamity of demonic possession?
Su Che looked at the old face of the Yin-Yang Dharma King, carefully searching for clues.

"You haven't forgotten that we're still members of the Zhongshan Society, have you?"

I had completely forgotten if you hadn't mentioned it.

Su Che nodded and said, "How could I forget? I am utterly loyal."

Yes, and there's also that mysterious Zhongyuan.

"However, one must be strong to forge iron." The Yin-Yang Dharma King then hinted, "Actually, you don't need to be too anxious or worry about any demonic sect members trying to harm you. At least within this Central Plains, there is the Xuandu Palace. Any ordinary Dharma Lord who dares to approach will be reduced to ashes."

"As for the path of cultivation ahead, I advise you to take it easy."

The tea was ready, and the Yin-Yang Dharma King comfortably poured himself a cup of piping hot tea, holding it in his hands and slowly inhaling its aroma.

"Take it easy, what do you mean by that, senior?"

"It's nothing." The Yin-Yang Dharma King looked at Su Che and said, "Back in my Yin-Yang Realm, you met the Northern Mang Ghost Ancestor, didn't you?"

"Indeed, the Ghost Ancestor also taught me a sword technique."

Su Che couldn't quite explain his feelings towards this Northern Mang Ghost Ancestor.

Back in the Yin-Yang realm, everyone joked and teased each other, and got along fairly well. In the end, the Ghost Ancestor even gifted him the Taiyu Abi Sword, one of the three swords of Taiyu.

These Three Swords of Taiyu are the Ghost Ancestor's trump card. With just this one sword move, I can barely be considered his successor.

"Think carefully about how you paved this heaven-reaching path in your cultivation."

Su Che calmed himself down and recalled his past.

By a twist of fate, he obtained a wine cup from the Azure Emperor Lingwei Yang at the Kulin Zen Temple, and later obtained the Azure Emperor's Treasure Garden.

In the great tomb deep in the Xuan Mountain, he unexpectedly obtained a bit of the true meaning of the Future Star Tribulation Scripture and cultivated the Pure Glazed Buddha Light.

Then, within the realm of Yin and Yang, the Northern Mang Ghost Ancestor casually left behind the wondrous technique of the Taiyu Abi Sword...

These things seemed unrelated, but with the Yin-Yang Dharma King's guidance, Su Che vaguely discerned a main thread.

The fact that the Azure Emperor's Treasure Garden was in his possession was a result of Zhong Yuan's efforts, and the very first wine cup was naturally a gift from him.

On the surface, the true meaning of the Future Star Tribulation Scripture in the heart of Xuan Mountain seems to have nothing to do with Zhongyuan, but without that true meaning, he would not be able to survive in the Hell Path that resides in the Azure Emperor's Treasure Garden. He also saw a handwritten letter left by Kongkong'er in that great tomb, and now he thinks it must not have been there for no reason.

Yes, and there's also the Taiyu Abi Sword.

Among the people in Zhongshan Society, the little fox obtained the "Heavenly Demon Soul Splitting Technique" from Zhongyuan, the water monkey obtained the "Eight-Nine Profound Technique"—both extremely remarkable techniques—while he himself only obtained the "Mirage Yuan Sword," a common item used by sword cultivators in the East China Sea.

However, in retrospect, it can also be seen as Zhongyuan laying the foundation for his future mastery of the Taiyu Abi Sword.

After all, given his severely injured state at the time, sword cultivation was an unavoidable path.

Throughout his life, Zhongyuan has remained behind the scenes, yet he has gradually and slowly propelled himself to his current position.

Upon thinking of this, Su Che felt as if there were a pair of cold and ruthless eyes behind him, constantly scrutinizing him through the bronze mask.
