Beginning with the Five Animals Fist to Become a Saint

Chapter 651: The Lord of Zhixuan Mountain, Progress Completed!

The Dongling Mountains.

On the mountain pillar.

Jiang Ning completely dismissed the idea in his mind and stopped focusing his attention on the three-story pagoda in his spiritual platform.

"We can't waste any more time!" He reviewed what had just happened.

The sudden crisis was no small matter.

He is the top master of Xuanshan, and it is said that he is an invincible existence in Dongling City.

Even in the capital city of Guangning Prefecture, he would be among the top performers.

If he had been carrying any equipment beforehand, resulting in insufficient strength, facing such a powerful figure who suddenly appeared would have been a life-threatening crisis.

"Fortunately, I've never slacked off before!"

At that moment, he felt a sense of relief, relieved that he had never been complacent.

It was his past efforts and dedication that enabled him to easily deal with this top master from Zhixuan Mountain who had suddenly arrived.

This gave him the confidence to face the mysterious mountain.

Subsequently, he realized that he needed to save time.

The top master of Xuan Mountain suddenly came to him with the intention of taking away Zhong Ling. His purpose was nothing more than to deal with Zhong Yue, or to restrain Zhong Yue and make him submit.

The local sects of the Five Sacred Mountains Prefecture are now preparing to take action against Zhong Yue, the prefectural governor. This undoubtedly indicates that the conflict is about to escalate, the situation will gradually deteriorate, and chaos will begin to emerge.

Once the various prefectures are truly in chaos, there will no longer be a stable environment for him to practice and improve his skills.

He didn't want to regret it someday because he lacked the ability.

Moreover, Fang Yu died at his hands, so it's inevitable that Zhi Xuanshan will cause him trouble in the future.

Then he will have to face the threat from Zhixuan Mountain, and even the forces behind Zhixuan Mountain.

He also had to consider this.

A variety of thoughts flashed through my mind.

His gaze swept across the panel.

He scanned the Summer Treasure Book, the Seven Star Demon-Subduing Sword and the Yin-Yang Sword, and the Tai Xu Yin-Yang Sword.

He knew very well that the only way to increase his strength in a short period of time was to choose these few techniques.

The immense power of the Great Sun Soaring Through the Sky contained in the Summer Treasure Manual was so great that even at its peak, it was enough for him to kill Fang Yu, who possessed the combat power of a top-tier grandmaster, with a single punch, causing Fang Yu's blood to evaporate instantly and turn into charcoal.

Its power is undeniably strong.

If it breaks through again, the derived characteristics and the power of its artistic conception will surely be even stronger.

These characteristics can also greatly enhance his background.

The breakthroughs in the Seven Star Demon-Subduing Sword and the Yin-Yang Sword will increase his swordsmanship and even enhance his related talents.

This will greatly benefit the subsequent mastery and breakthrough of the Taixu Yin Yang Sword.

Given the profoundness and quality of the Taixu Yin-Yang Sword, Jiang Ning believed that once he mastered this sword technique, his combat power would inevitably increase significantly.

With his current combat strength, if it were to increase significantly again, it would be enough for him to dominate the second rank.

With a thought, he immediately locked onto a skill on the panel.

[Skill]: Summer Treasure Trove (Perfect 2837/10000)

This technique contains the true meaning of the Great Sun Soaring into the Sky.

If we take a further step on the basis of perfection, we will surely gain something.

To this day, he has been somewhat worried that if this technique were to advance further...

Even if one manages to capture the essence of all four seasons in the future, it may still be difficult to fully understand and comprehend the cycle of the seasons, or even the essence of time itself.

Looking at the panel, Jiang Ning fell into a brief moment of thought.

A moment later, his gaze became firm.

"The situation is far from calm! I don't need to think too far ahead!"

Then he looked up.

The sun was setting in the west, but it was still shining brightly.

next moment.

He entered a state of communion with the sun overhead.

A golden sun instantly rose from his body.

In an instant, he was enveloped by a golden sun.

【.】

As one resonates with the great sun, the great sun in one's heart shines ever brighter.

Flames surged and erupted, light and heat intertwined, and the golden light emanating from its body grew ever brighter, seemingly vying with the great sun overhead.

That night.

Jiang Ning finished practicing his swordplay, and the moon was already high in the sky.

He returned to his courtyard under the moonlight.

Suddenly, I saw a woman standing by the lake.

She wore a long gold and red dress, the hem of which reached the ground, and the dress was adorned with shimmering gold.

The visitor was none other than Wang Qingtan.

"What, are you surprised to see me?" Wang Qingtan turned around, looking at Jiang Ning who had just returned from practicing swordsmanship, a smile on her lips.

“Yes, there are some!” Jiang Ning nodded.

"You were spying on my sister and me sleeping last night, weren't you?" Wang Qingtan suddenly blurted out.

"How did you know?" Jiang Ning smiled sheepishly.

"I sensed your presence last night!" Wang Qingtan then smiled and said, "You came to see me last night, did you miss me?"

“Of course!” Jiang Ning nodded immediately.

"I don't believe it!" Wang Qingtan immediately shook his head, then glanced at the room where Zhong Ling was: "You've already kept a mistress in a golden cage, you have a new love, how could you still think of me?"

Following Wang Qingtan's gaze, Jiang Ning glanced at the house where Zhong Ling was.

"Don't talk nonsense, she and I are completely innocent!"

"Actually, I don't mind!" Wang Qingtan shook her head, her tone genuine.

Just then, Jiang Ning's stomach suddenly rumbled.

"Hungry?" She looked at Jiang Ning in surprise and suddenly spoke.

“A little!” Jiang Ning nodded.

“That’s perfect, I’m hungry too!” Wang Qingtan said.

"You haven't eaten either?" Jiang Ning asked, looking surprised.

"What do you think?" Wang Qingtan rolled her eyes. "I came to find you in the middle of the night!"

"Hehe, I get it!"

That night.

After feeding himself, Jiang Ning then fed Wang Qingtan.

time flies.

In the blink of an eye, three days had passed.

Wuyue Prefecture.

Refers to Xuanshan.

The mountain is thousands of feet high, with five peaks standing side by side. The central peak is the highest and resembles the five fingers of a palm, hence the name Zhixuan Mountain.

Zhixuan Mountain is also a major sect renowned for its finger techniques, and is the leader of all sects in the Five Sacred Mountains Prefecture.

at this time.

In the lobby of Middle Finger Peak.

A composed-looking man walked slowly towards them.

If Zhao Yulong were here, he would recognize at a glance that the composed-looking man in front of him is a peak master of Xuanshan.

Zheng Changfeng, who had already entered the ranks of powerful grandmasters, was also Fang Yu's senior brother.

Although they are fellow disciples, there is a difference in their martial arts talent, with the junior disciple surpassing the senior disciple in martial arts.

"Greetings, Sect Leader Li!" Zheng Changfeng bowed respectfully the moment he saw Li Sixiang.

"Why are you here? Where is your mountain lord?" Li Sixiang looked at Zheng Changfeng, frowned slightly, and seemed somewhat displeased.

He came from afar, as a second-rank Grandmaster, the deputy sect leader of the Immortal Crossing Sect, and the deputy leader of the Yingtian Alliance.

Now, the person who came to meet him from Xuanshan was merely a third-rank Grandmaster, which he considered an insult.

Hearing the emotions in Li Sixiang's words and seeing the changes in the expression on his face.

Zheng Changfeng immediately cupped his hands and said, "Alliance Leader Li, please don't take offense. My disciples have told me that your arrival is related to my junior brother Fang Yu, so I am here to see you."

Hearing that Zheng Changfeng had changed his form of address and his attitude was more pleasant, Li Sixiang's expression immediately softened.

"My presence here is indeed related to your junior brother, Fang Yu!"

Hear the words.

Zheng Changfeng's gaze sharpened slightly, a sense of unease creeping into his heart.

It has been four or five days since Fang Yu left.

According to his original plan, Fang Yu should have brought Zhong Ling back to Zhixuan Mountain at this time and made a great contribution.

Moreover, with Zhong Ling as a bargaining chip, they will be able to greatly restrain Zhong Yue in the future, and may even be able to make Zhong Yue side with them.

But instead of his junior brother's return, he was greeted by Li Sixiang, the vice sect leader of the Duxian Sect.

In an instant.

A thought flashed through Zheng Changfeng's mind, and then he respectfully said to Li Sixiang, "Please inform Alliance Leader Li of my senior brother's whereabouts."

"Fang Yu is dead!" Li Sixiang said bluntly.

"Impossible!!" Zheng Changfeng instinctively retorted.

"Do you think I would lie to you?" Li Sixiang looked at Zheng Changfeng and said calmly.

"I'm sorry!" Faced with the invisible pressure emanating from Li Sixiang, Zheng Changfeng immediately expressed his apology. As the saying goes, a grandmaster cannot be insulted, and a great grandmaster even less so.

He wisely bowed his head before a Grandmaster of the Second Rank Divine Intent Realm.

Then he asked, "Alliance Leader Li, may I ask who caused my junior brother's death? My junior brother had already stepped into the realm of a top-tier grandmaster!"

"Not to mention Dongling County, my junior brother should be able to come and go freely throughout the entire Guangning Prefecture."

Hear the words.

Li Sixiang shook his head.

"Jiangning!"

"It really is him?!" Zheng Changfeng's gaze sharpened, and his expression turned serious.

"I'm absolutely certain, it's him!" Li Sixiang affirmed again, then added, "Everyone in the world underestimates him! Your junior brother probably underestimates him too!"

Thinking of his arrogant junior brother, Zheng Changfeng's tone immediately became a few degrees lower.

"That should be true!"

"Before my junior brother left, he looked down on that boy!"

"They must have underestimated that young man, and he capsized in a ditch!"

Sitting in his seat, Li Sixiang glanced at Zheng Changfeng indifferently.

"Go and call your mountain lord over! There are some things I need to discuss with him!"

Just as Li Sixiang finished speaking.

A calm voice suddenly rang out in the room.

"No need, I'm here!"

The sound echoed in the room, and Zheng Changfeng's heart tightened.

next moment.

As a gentle breeze blew by, a handsome man who looked to be just over thirty appeared in the room.

The man wore a long silver-white robe, with silver threads used as threads to embellish the robe, creating the appearance of white clouds.

"Mountain Lord!" Zheng Changfeng bowed respectfully upon seeing the newcomer.

at this time.

Li Sixiang also stood up immediately.

"Greetings, Lord Yunshan!"

Compared to before, Li Sixiang's expression became much more respectful.

Because he was well aware of the strength of the Cloud Mountain Master in front of him.

Yun Shanhai was a second-grade grandmaster who had become famous earlier and was stronger than him.

Even though the sect leader of the Immortal Crossing Sect was no match for Yun Shanhai, he knew that he was probably no match for him.

This is why the existence of Zhixuan Mountain has always made it difficult for Yingtian Alliance to completely cover the surrounding prefectures.

"Sect Leader Li, tell me the details!" Yun Shanhai said.

Li Sixiang nodded.

Then he said, "We don't know the specifics either! We only know that after Master Fang entered the city, he went to the Inspector's Office and then to his residence in Jiangning."

"Then a ray of light, as bright as the sun, and a powerful energy fluctuation erupted from the east courtyard of the mansion."

"Since then, we have never seen any trace of Master Fang Yu again!"

Upon hearing Li Sixiang's words, Yun Shanhai immediately nodded.

"Fang Yu is almost certainly dead!"

Li Sixiang nodded in deep agreement.

Then, Yun Shanhai glanced at Zheng Changfeng.

"Peak Master Zheng, what are your thoughts on this matter?"

"I beg you, Mountain Lord, to avenge my junior brother!" Zheng Changfeng immediately bowed and pleaded.

"You want me to go to Dongling City and kill that young inspector?" Yun Shanhai asked.

"I wouldn't dare!" Zheng Changfeng immediately whispered.

Yunshanhai shook his head.

"It's one thing to take action against the current Inspectorate and kill some small fry! But if I were to actually take action against a prefectural inspector, I would be the first to ignite the situation, and the entire Zhixuan Mountain would be overthrown as a result."

at this time.

Li Sixiang smiled as well.

"We understand Lord Yunshan's concerns!"

"Then what brings you here?" Yun Shanhai asked Li Sixiang.

"I wish to invite Zhixuan Mountain to join me in this important matter!" Li Sixiang said.

"You want me to join the Yingtian Alliance?" Yun Shanhai asked in return.

“Indeed! The world is about to descend into chaos. In this chaos, we must band together. If we do not, we will be nothing more than a slightly larger fish compared to the major powers in the world,” Li Sixiang said.

“I’m referring to Xuanshan, not your Duxian Sect. Don’t forget who’s behind me.” Yun Shanhai’s gaze was calm.

“Master Yun, I believe you know better than I how many times the people behind you can be persuaded? Your relationship with them is merely the blood ties and incense left by our ancestors!” Li Sixiang said.

Hear the words.

Yun Shan Hai smiled slightly.

"That's enough, isn't it?"

“That’s enough!” Li Sixiang did not argue.

at this time.

Yun Shanhai added, "It's not impossible for me to join your Yingtian Alliance!"

“Master Yun, please speak frankly!” Li Sixiang said.

“If you avenge Fang Yu for me, I will agree to join the Yingtian Alliance,” Yun Shanhai said.

"You want me to kill Jiang Ning?" Li Sixiang's gaze narrowed slightly.

“Not bad!” Yun Shanhai nodded.

Upon hearing this, Li Sixiang fell silent.

The mountain lord of Zhixuan Mountain in front of him was wary of the Inspectorate and dared not seek revenge, and so did he.

Although undercurrents are surging in the thirty-six prefectures of the nine provinces.

But no one has ever dared to detonate it completely.

Because those who stand out will face the wrath of the authorities.

A dead skinny camel is bigger than a horse.

Moreover, the official authorities are not exactly weak.

Furthermore, there has been no news of that martial saint to date, and his situation remains unknown.

One person has suppressed the world for over eight hundred years, and no one is willing to be the one to take the lead and face the wrath from the Martial Saint's Mansion, or even the wrath of that Martial Saint himself.

There was a long silence.

You could hear a pin drop indoors.

suddenly.

Li Sixiang looked up at Yunshanhai.

"Okay!" He nodded emphatically.

"Are you qualified to make this decision?" Yun Shanhai looked at Li Sixiang, a hint of disbelief in his eyes.

"Before I came, the sect leader instructed me that I could make all the decisions!" Li Sixiang said, then added, "But I need the mountain lord's assistance."

"What kind of assistance do you need?" Yun Shanhai asked.

“A section of divine bone that carries the essence of mountains and seas of the Cloud Mountain Master,” Li Sixiang said.

"Okay!" Yun Shanhai nodded after two breaths.

The Dongling Mountains.

It was midday.

The sun hangs high in the sky.

Even though it's October, the temperature is still frighteningly high.

The sun's rays and heat radiated like flames scorching the mountains and forests.

Bathed in sunlight, Jiang Ning felt unusually comfortable.
