Yinshan Record

Chapter 617 To Whom Did the Spirit Map Belong Back Then? (Part 2)
Su Che was naturally unaware that Ye Hu still cared so much about him; if he had known, he wouldn't have had time to worry about such things.

Because he was busy with something very important.

"Don't be angry, I just didn't want you to win, didn't I?"

Kongkong, the old monkey, was rubbing his face by a small river, dressed in black. Su Che, also dressed in black, sat next to him with a worn-out longsword slung over his shoulder.

From a distance, they looked like a pair of down-on-their-luck bandits.

"You can't use that trick, it's caused me a lot of trouble."

Su Che was completely helpless against this person.

He's clearly a renowned sword cultivator, a famous senior, so why is he so clumsy, hiding the lightning-struck wood in Princess Ning'an's bed?

Unless Su Che is an audacious womanizer, the kind who goes straight into the palace to harm the empress and princess, how could he possibly find him?
"But didn't you also receive benefits? Tell me about that Breathing Void Secret Technique, whether it works or not."

"It's easy to use, but..."

"You got the benefits, and now you want to take away my old man's face? You think you can have all the good things by yourself?"

Kongkong crossed her arms.

"There aren't that many good things in the world."

"Senior, look what this is."

"You know how to address someone as 'senior' now. Your fox is much sweeter-talking than you."

Kongkong'er looked at Su Che's hand, where a wisp of water was suspended in mid-air and flying up and down.

"Oh my, the turbid current of the six desires is actually quite pure."

Kongkong'er looked at Su Che and said, "Are you really going to become a womanizer?"

"I was fighting someone before, and she shed a layer of her human skin, which turned into this thing..."

Su Che briefly explained the origin of this thing to Kong Kong'er.

"This woman surnamed Xie..."

After hesitating for a while, Kongkong'er said, "It's really not simple."

According to Kongkong'er, this substance is called the Six Desires Turbid Stream, which only extremely skilled demonic cultivators can extract from the everyday thoughts of ordinary people. Depending on the origin of the desire, it has different uses.

It can refine elixirs, create poisons, and cultivate certain supernatural powers, including the creation of extremely sophisticated avatars.

"You said that she eventually turned into something that was neither dragon nor snake and ran away. This is also a divine power of the Heavenly Demons. You should know that when it comes to body tempering, they are considered experts in this world. They have all kinds of transformations, so turning into a dragon or a snake is not surprising."

What Kongkong'er said next made Su Che frown even more.

"To be able to refine the Six Desires Turbid Stream to this purity, hehe, she's at least at the level of a demonic immortal. Why did she run away when she saw you, kid? Does she owe you money...?"

"Is this thing really that powerful?"

"Impressive? Let me put it this way: if you happen to find someone who knows how to use it, you can let it fall with the rain, and Jiankang City will become a supreme place for yin and yang harmony. Of course, the premise is that everyone from top to bottom pretends not to see it."

Kong Kong shook himself.

"That woman is no ordinary person; she might be the reincarnation of a powerful figure from a demonic sect."

Another reincarnation?

Su Che suddenly felt that this reincarnation was truly worthless.

He claimed to be the nominal reincarnation of the Azure Emperor, while the Ghost Ancestor of Beimang was the true reincarnation of a disciple of the ancient Black Emperor.

Now, we have added Madam Xie, who is also a reincarnation of a powerful figure from the Demonic Sect.

What kind of place is this Central Plains? It's probably a nursery for the reincarnations of powerful beings.

"Oh dear, is reincarnation really that valuable these days?"

Kongkong'er picked up the longsword in her hand and gently patted Su Che's shoulder with the scabbard.

"You are the reincarnation of the Azure Emperor. Do you know how many people in the East China Sea claim to be the reincarnation of the Azure Emperor?"

"How many?"

"There are four names that everyone is familiar with, just by their given names."

Kongkonger held up four fingers and shook them.

"Of course, you're the big brother here now, after all, you have the double certification of Xuandu Palace and Huangtiandao."

It's true that this reincarnation of the Green Emperor is like leeks in the field, growing in large quantities.

"It seems like the competition in this industry is fierce."

Su Che didn't know what to say.

"That's nothing, because the Ancient Azure Emperor is the one with the most mysteries among the Five Emperors of the Five Directions. He was also the first reincarnated one to appear after the fall of the Ancient Heavenly Court, and he has continued to appear ever since."

As Kongkong spoke, her eyes darted back and forth over Su Che with ill intent.

"There are even rumors that the Azure Emperor was the culprit behind the fall of the ancient Heavenly Court."

Su Che was stunned. How did they come up with such a sensational rumor?

"Isn't Lingwei Yang's remains in Narayana's hands?"

"So it's very likely that Ling Weiyang is colluding with Na Luoyan. They both have three characters in their names, which makes perfect sense."

okay.

Su Che now understood that this senior Kongkong'er never spoke the truth; he only said whatever pleased him.

"You... never mind."

Su Che was also at a loss for words.

"Senior, please tell me why our leader is involved. I won't guess anymore. The Yin-Yang Dharma King and the Ghost Ancestor are actually disciples of the Black Emperor. They can't let go of the karma from back then, which is why they joined the association."

"You are the Supreme Elder of the East Sea Separation and Union Pavilion, and a senior figure in the Sword Palace who can speak with authority. Why are you hanging out with them for no reason?"

Needless to say, the mysterious Zhongyuan must have been a powerful figure from the ancient Heavenly Court.

Both the Northern Mang Ghost Ancestor and the Yin-Yang Ghost King were old sycophants of His Majesty the Black Emperor. Su Che had always been curious why this senior Kong Kong'er, who lived such a clear-headed life, would get mixed up with these bitter and vengeful guys.

"They paid."

Kong Kong'er said naturally, "Our Lihe Pavilion's rule is to take money and do things."

"Then may I ask, how much is it that makes you work so hard?"

"It is a fortune I cannot refuse."

Su Che found it hard to imagine what could drive a longevity sword cultivator.

Gold and silver treasures? If you covet those things, you will not attain immortality.

Magical artifacts? Or some kind of unparalleled supernatural power?
Kongkong'er sighed as she spoke: "For example, how I went from an unknown sword cultivator to what I am today."

I understand, we're all in the same boat.

Su Che suddenly understood that this senior Kong Kong'er was probably like himself, having been dragged and pulled to his current position by Zhong Yuan and the forces behind him.

Whether it's to repay a debt of gratitude or for the sake of our future paths, we're all in the same boat now, and we have no choice but to stick together through thick and thin.

"I called you here today to teach you a very important lesson."

Kongkong stood up and stretched.

"What is the most important skill for those who roam the martial world and seek immortality?"

Su Che didn't want to answer at all, because according to this senior's usual practice, the answer would definitely be extremely irrelevant.

"Then let's rob them."

Kongkong'er clenched her fist tightly: "Tell me, if you can't even do something as simple as killing and robbing, what kind of immortal are you trying to cultivate?"

"But you don't need to wear night clothes in broad daylight, do you?"

Su Che pointed to the sun in the sky.

"I think we can get things done by wearing masks."

"No."

Kongkong shook her finger.

"Young Su, what do you think is the most important thing in a robbery? It's not revealing your identity."

"That's easy. Just kill all the witnesses, then destroy the surrounding area and let them investigate..."

"He's indeed a promising student, but isn't this a bit too arrogant?"

"I've already robbed someone, why should I be low-key?"

"Anyway."

Kongkong'er clenched his fist and said, "I heard that the old Yin Yang master passed on to you a wonderful technique for changing one's appearance."

"good."

The Nine Netherworld Reincarnation Technique passed down by the Yin-Yang Dharma King can suppress or even mimic one's own cultivation level.

Su Che usually disguises himself as Zuo Lengchan when traveling the world. He first uses the Nine Nether Reincarnation Technique to suppress his own Xuanmen cultivation so that he can disguise himself as a sword cultivator with Xuanmen aura.

"That's just a change in supernatural powers. This time I'm going to teach you a little trick to change your appearance, but it's not an illusion, it's a change to your own muscles and skin."

As Kongkong spoke, he casually made a few strokes on his face, and his expression immediately changed.

"This is a little trick I've figured out over the past few years. Using magic to change muscles and bones, hehe, that's much more ingenious than any illusion."

Kongkong'er explained the method of changing faces to Su Che, and then pointed out the next key point.

"A large ship will be passing by in a moment. Go out and rob them."

"Hijacking a ship?"

"Don't worry, there are no experts up there. With me here, what are you afraid of? Just use your swordsmanship to kill them all."

After Kongkong'er said that, Su Che felt even more uncertain.

"The entire ship was hijacked?"

"Of course not. There's a scroll on the ship that's very important to us. It should have been Old Yin Yang and the others who came, but they went to find a Void-Step Ghost Cultivator for you to suppress. So, thank you for your trouble, old man, to make this trip."

"A catalog? There are so many things on the ship, how am I supposed to know which catalog I'm looking for?"

"Hehe, that's an ancient treasure, a corner of the True Spirit Position Map. You, a disciple of the Yellow Heaven Path, surely know about this treasure, right?"

"Of course I know the True Spirit Position Chart."

Su Che had read extensively during his time at the Huangtiandao Sect, so he naturally knew that this was almost equivalent to the Investiture of the Gods.

This treasure is said to be the foundation of the ancient Heavenly Court, and it bears the names of the immortals and records their titles and responsibilities.

To some extent, the "Zhou Jue Yin Tian Secret Manual" that Su Che is currently cultivating, the "divine registers" for the Investiture of the Gods, and all the various registers and methods of the Xuanmen Divine Path are derived from this extraordinary treasure.

The so-called "lu" is a symbol of a cultivator's identity, representing their cultivation level and lineage in Taoism.

This True Spirit Position Chart is a great register created by the ancient Heavenly Court.

However, Su Che clearly saw in the ancient texts that this thing had already been destroyed when the ancient Heavenly Court fell.

Kongkong'er, who had been laughing and joking, suddenly changed his expression and looked at the sky with a serious expression.

"coming."

Su Che looked up at the sky and finally saw the ship that Kong Kong'er had mentioned.

A huge black shadow was hanging in the sky, moving slowly.

"The boat you're talking about... is the Cloud Boat..."

"Are only things that float on water considered boats?"

Kongkong patted Su Che on the shoulder and said, "Go for it, Su boy."
