Beginning with the Five Animals Fist to Become a Saint

Chapter 595 The True Inheritance of Shangyang, Jiangning!
On Yanghu Lake.

A ripple flashed, and Xie Yang's figure appeared.

"It's Second Senior Brother!!" Ge Xian'er was stunned.

"Senior Brother Xie Yang has come out too?!" Wang Yuan was taken aback when he saw the figure above.

He knew his second senior brother's abilities.

Although not as exceptionally talented and unparalleled as his senior brother.

But it can be considered outstanding, and it would still shine even in ancient times.

He was able to become the second senior brother of the Qingyang Sect not because of personal connections, after all, he was surnamed Xie, not like him who was surnamed Wang.

Xie Yang earned his position through his cultivation in the immortal path and his spiritual realm.

Even with his extraordinary martial arts skills, he was no match for Xie Yang in the cave world.

Moreover, he also knew that entering the secret realm of the cave, although they could not use storage items, caught them somewhat off guard.

Cultivators like them rely even more on external objects such as magic treasures, array bases, and talismans.

Without these external aids, one can only unleash about 30-50% of their full strength.

But Xie Yang was different; he always carried his swords with him.

He also carried a magic sword engraved with the foundation of the Four Spirits Grand Array.

With those four magic swords, Xie Yang could set up the Four Spirits Formation in an instant.

With the support of the formation, Xie Yang was able to unleash 70-80% of his peak strength.

After he came out yesterday, he did not see Xie Yang. He originally thought that Xie Yang should have a sure victory with the advantage of the Four Spirits Formation.

They might even kill Jiang Ning in the secret cave realm.

Xie Yang's appearance at the cave's exit, injured, caught him somewhat off guard.

“Cousin, I told you you underestimate him! It seems I’ll have to use my own flying sword!” Wang Xuan glanced at Xie Yang, then looked away and said to her cousin Wang Yuan.

at this time.

Xie Yang flashed and landed beside the two of them.

"Second Senior Brother, are you alright?" Ge Xian'er asked with concern.

"Thank you, Senior Brother Xie Yang!" Wang Yuan said.

"Second Senior Brother!" Wang Xuan said.

"Who did they lose to?" the old woman who led them there asked Xie Yang.

"Grand Uncle, my skills are lacking, and I lost to Long Xiaofeng!" Xie Yang bowed to the old woman.

“Descendant of the Eighteen Dragon Heads, you have no reason to lose!” The old woman said calmly, seemingly unsurprised.

"Grand Uncle, it's my responsibility!" Xie Yang said with a look of remorse, "I'm willing to accept punishment!"

The old woman shook her head: "The outcome was already within my expectations. I brought you out here not to gain any benefits, but simply to broaden your horizons and let you see the world as it is today!"

"You've always thought too highly of yourselves, always believing that cultivators of the immortal path are superior to others!"

"In reality, under the current circumstances, we are actually inferior to others!"

"Martial arts are now extremely prosperous, with many geniuses emerging! Apart from the lack of longevity and high-end combat power, this path should not be underestimated! That's why I always told you to cultivate both paths simultaneously and advance in both directions."

"Your current trial is still in the Cave Heaven World. If it were here, with your current martial arts level, you wouldn't even be able to withstand a single move from that descendant of the Dragon Head!"

"I will always remember my great-uncle's teachings! After returning, I will practice martial arts diligently and never look down on the martial arts again!" Xie Yang said sincerely.

Upon hearing this, the old woman slowly nodded.

"You must understand that you have unique advantages in Qingyang Grotto-heaven, allowing you to cultivate both paths simultaneously! Although we immortal cultivators are limited by the current environment and cannot live long lives like those in ancient times, as long as we reside in the grotto-heaven world, we will still live much longer than those martial artists."

"Living long is the biggest advantage!"

Even if one's martial arts talent is average, one will eventually achieve remarkable success by virtue of living a long life!

Hearing the old woman's words...

The group immediately bowed respectfully.

"Thank you for your teachings, Uncle!"

"Thank you for your teachings, Uncle!"

"."

at this time.

There was movement in the sky above.

Three figures appeared one after another.

As soon as one of the figures appeared, it plummeted straight down.

This person was none other than Long Xingyun.

Without the power of heaven and earth, one cannot walk on air.

Ye Zhengqi and Zhong Yue exchanged a glance, then looked down and saw Sun Yuancheng's figure.

The two then flashed back to the ship.

"Brother Yuancheng, are you alright?" Ye Zhengqi asked.

Sun Yuancheng's expression instantly became a little unnatural, then he shook his head: "It's nothing, there was a slight accident, so I came back early!"

Then he asked, "Brother Ye, have you seen the Inspector Jiang?"

"I've seen them! Now only the Jiang Inspector and that descendant of the dragon head are inside!" Ye Zhengqi said.

Upon hearing this, Sun Yuancheng's expression became even more unnatural.

"Jiang Ning... He's actually that strong? I originally thought he..."

"You thought he was in trouble, huh!" Zhong Yue interjected with a chuckle, "You underestimate him. He's someone who can go toe-to-toe with Long Xiaofeng!"

"One-on-one!" Sun Yuancheng's pupils contracted slightly, his tone somewhat incredulous: "Long Xiaofeng is said to have already entered the ranks of top grandmasters!"

"He has indeed entered the ranks of top grandmasters!" Ye Zhengqi seemed to recall the battle just now, and his expression was somewhat wistful: "I just fought with Long Xiaofeng, and I am far inferior to him."

“That person is indeed formidable!” Zhong Yue nodded in deep agreement.

"According to your two opinions, the final winner is a foregone conclusion! Long Xiaofeng is a descendant of the Eighteen Dragon Heads, with extraordinary bloodline. How could Envoy Jiang possibly be his match?"

"This is the result!" Ye Zhengqi nodded.

at this time.

Then there was another commotion from above.

"So fast!?" Ye Zhengqi looked surprised.

He knew the current situation of Shangyang Cave Heaven, that only Jiang Ning and Long Xiaofeng remained.

The movement at the entrance to the grotto-heaven above meant that one of the two had retreated.

His heart skipped a beat, and he immediately looked up.

The next moment, his pupils shrank sharply, and an expression of disbelief appeared on his face.

"It's Long Xiaofeng? How is that possible?!" Ye Zhengqi exclaimed in surprise.

"It's him!!" Zhong Yue's expression also changed.

Sun Yuancheng was also extremely incredulous when he saw this person's figure.

He came out early because of this person.

at the same time.

The dragon roaring in the sky was equally unsettled, stirring up waves of turmoil.

The unity of essence, energy and spirit!

It is the power of the unity of essence, energy, and spirit!

He was deeply shaken.

Shangyang Cave Heaven.

Jiang Ning stared at the figure that had completely disappeared ahead, and looked at his right hand in disbelief.

Just now, with only Long Xiaofeng left, he was preparing to test the exotic energy in his lower dantian.

The power comes from the fusion of essence, energy, and spirit.

He only used one move, and the alien energy in his dantian was completely dissipated.

However, Long Xiaofeng was also defeated by him with a simple punch, and was forced out of the cave world.

"What exactly is that power?" The thought flashed through his mind.

He then closed his eyes and looked inward at himself.

He then saw that the golden mist that had been swirling in his dantian was now completely empty.

All that remained was that gleaming golden inner core.

now.

The golden inner elixir absorbed the power of blood and spirit, representing essence and spirit respectively.

The essence, energy, and spirit merge within the inner elixir, and then slowly exhale a wisp of golden energy.

Another moment passed.

Another wisp of golden energy was exhaled.

Jiang Ning watched this scene quietly for a moment. Then, her dantian was once again filled with wisps of golden energy.

These golden energies floated in the dantian, like smoke and mist.

With the addition of strands of golden energy, the concentration in the dantian gradually increased.

"Recovery is slow!" he thought to himself.

Then I opened my eyes again.

He could feel that his dantian was still empty, but this emptiness was being filled little by little.

He immediately raised his hand, and a wisp of golden light gathered at his fingertips once again.

The golden light shimmered, yet appeared ordinary and gentle.

But Jiang Ning knew that Long Xiaofeng, whom he considered extremely troublesome, was defeated by him with a single punch after he unleashed this strange energy.

This undoubtedly demonstrates that the quality of this energy is extremely high.

But it doesn't last long either.

His dantian, which was almost full, was completely empty after the punch, with no energy remaining.

"That's enough! It's enough to be one of my trump cards!"

Jiang Ning muttered to himself.

His encounter with Long Xiaofeng made him realize the power of this energy.

At this moment, he understood that the greatest gain after breaking through the Neidan Health Cultivation Technique was not the upgrade of his special characteristics.

Rather, it is a different kind of energy resulting from the fusion of the three forces of essence, energy, and spirit.

With this energy, he can unleash power far exceeding his current strength.

"Upgrading our ultimate technique was definitely the right decision!"

Subsequently.

Jiang Ning still hadn't received the will of the cave world, so he knew he still had to wait for the end of three days and nights.

That night.

As the bright moon rises over Yanghu Lake.

The entrance to the celestial world above is no longer closed.

"Grand Uncle, are we just going to wait like this?" Wang Xuan asked.

"Hmm!" The old woman nodded: "Your flying sword is in that person's hands, as are Xu Ming's flying sword, the Vermilion Bird Fire Sword and the Azure Dragon Wood Sword of the Four Spirits Formation. They are all in the hands of that Inspector Jiang. Naturally, we must wait for him to come out and demand them back!"

Shangyang Cave Heaven.

As night falls outside, the cave world is once again shrouded in darkness.

Darkness surged in like a tide, instantly engulfing Jiangning.

He saw this scene without fear, and then let out a burp.

Because he was really stuffed.

After consuming a series of rare and precious spiritual plants, his body was almost overflowing with energy.

He could feel that every cell in his body was fully saturated.

A large amount of energy surged into the body, which could not digest it in a short period of time, almost reaching its limit.

It could be said that he felt that any piece of his flesh that he could cut off now was no less than a real medicinal herb.

He rubbed his stomach, trying to soothe the non-existent feeling of fullness.

He then looked at a section of bamboo shoot-shaped product in his hand, which was more than ten centimeters long.

This is the spiritual plant he just found by observing the energy convergence point with his Fiery Eyes.

"No, we can't waste it!"

Jiang Ning thought to himself, made a slight adjustment, and ate it bite by bite.

After a while.

[Internal Alchemy Health Cultivation Exercise Experience Points +7]

[Internal Alchemy Health Cultivation Exercise Experience Points +7]

[Internal Alchemy Health Cultivation Exercise Experience Points +8]

【.】

After he had digested the great sun essence contained in the bamboo shoots, he glanced at the control panel.

[Skill]: Internal Alchemy Health Cultivation Technique (Breaking the limit three times to 8341/40000) (Characteristics: Longevity Seed (Dark Purple) Pure Yang Body (Dark Purple))
He glanced at the panel and nodded in satisfaction.

In just a few hours, the experience points of the Internal Alchemy Health Cultivation Technique increased by several thousand points.

In the outside world, it would take him dozens of days to accumulate the same amount of energy.

Here, he achieved this accumulation in just a few hours.

He was even more determined not to miss such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

After a short digestion, Jiang Ning set off again.

The cold, dark night could no longer stop him.

The intense yang energy within him was enough to allow him to move freely in the bone-chilling darkness of the night.

In the blink of an eye.

time flies.

As the first rays of dawn pierce the sky, completely dispelling the darkness.

Jiang Ning also picked the last large fruit from the tree and put it into the pocket made of his clothes.

His body was too weak to eat anymore, so he could only pack up and take away as many rare and precious plants as he could find.

Lacking a suitable bag, he had no choice but to take off his clothes and use them as pockets to fill as many spiritual plants and rare treasures as possible.

After putting the fruit into his pocket, he immediately scanned his control panel.

[Source Energy]: 38731
[Skill]: Internal Alchemy Health Cultivation Technique (Breaking the limit three times to 12671/40000) (Characteristics: Longevity Seed (Dark Purple) Pure Yang Body (Dark Purple))
After a day of digestion, the Energy Points have once again seen a surge, reaching over 38,000 points.

Compared to the increase in energy points, the accumulation of internal alchemy and health cultivation techniques from last night was not significant.

The mere increase of a little over three thousand experience points resulted in a progress increase of more than a quarter.

But this made him very satisfied.

The reason why his internal alchemy cultivation practice was not accumulating well was because his body could no longer digest more in a short period of time.

So he decided to pack up and take away all the rare and precious plants he found last night.

Once he gets out, he only needs to digest the accumulated medicinal energy within his body to usher in a new round of explosive growth in source energy points and inner alchemy cultivation experience points.

at this time.

Rumbling--

An invisible wave descended, causing the void to tremble.

He immediately closed the panel, his expression slightly serious.

Having had previous experience, he knew that this turmoil was caused by the descent of the will of the cave heaven.

next moment.

A deafening roar rang in his ears.

[In this round of trials, only one person remains after three days and nights, meeting the requirements for becoming a true disciple.]

Suddenly.

A dazzling golden light suddenly fell from the sky, plummeting straight down towards his location.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Ning's eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at the golden light.

In an instant.

The golden light fell in front of him, hovering motionless, suddenly completing the change from stillness to movement.

When the golden light dissipated, Jiang Ning saw a golden token floating in front of him.

The image of ten suns soaring in the sky is prominently engraved on the token.

[This token is the identity token of a true disciple. It can be bound to the disciple by a drop of blood. With this token, one can enter and exit the Shangyang Inner Realm once a month.]

Interior location?
Jiang Ning was stunned.

He had seen the term "inner vision" in ancient books.

However, there are few explanations for this.

Thoughts flashed through my mind.

He took the token floating in front of him, then squeezed a drop of blood from his fingertip and dripped it onto the token.

His blood instantly merged into the token, and he suddenly formed a mysterious connection with the token in his hand.

On the back of the "Ten Days on the Same Day" pattern, engravings slowly began to appear.

Once the engraving was fully formed, the two characters "Jiang Ning" appeared prominently on the back of the token in my hand.

The formation of these two characters also signifies that the token in hand has completely recognized its owner.

The token then transformed into a golden light and shot straight towards his brow, instantly disappearing there.
