I am eight years old again, and I will never serve as a cauldron for the empress again.

The twelve strands of Daoist rhyme came together.

The Ninth Elder handed it over to Zhuang Zhou.

Zhuang Zhou put it away and then stared intently at the Ninth Elder.

"Remove the curse right now! We agreed on cash on delivery!"

The Ninth Elder urged impatiently.

Zhuang Zhou said quietly.

"Ninth Elder, are you suffering from dementia? You promised me more than just this!"

The Ninth Elder looked up.

He happened to be looking directly into Zhuang Zhou's eyes.

Zhuang Zhou's eyes were like those of a ravenous wolf.

The Ninth Elder gritted his teeth; this bastard has a good memory.

"The Heaven-Breaking Technique, is it? Here you go! This is the original, absolutely flawless, but if you can't master it, don't blame me!"

The Ninth Elder tossed a jade slip to Zhuang Zhou.

This is the supreme teaching method of their Ziyang Cave.

However, this technique is very difficult to master.

Therefore, even if each person has one of these, not everyone can master it.

Acquired the "Heaven-Breaking Technique".

Zhuang Zhou narrowed his eyes slightly.

The contents of that document were all reflected in his mind.

"It really is this thing!"

Zhuang Zhou said to himself.

"You know?!" The Ninth Elder was stunned.

"I once saw a formation in another ruin called the Void-Breaking Formation! When activated, this formation can shatter the barriers of spacetime! There are barriers between worlds! There are also barriers between dimensions! The Sky-Breaking Technique is similar in function to the Void-Breaking Formation!"

Zhuang Zhou said.

Upon hearing this, the Ninth Elder felt a pang of anxiety.

He originally thought that giving this secret technique to Zhuang Zhou would be a waste.

After all, even the people of Ziyang Cave Heaven couldn't figure this thing out.

However, Zhuangzi actually revealed the truth in a single sentence!

Followed by.

Zhuang Zhou slowly said, "The reason why Ziyang Grotto-heaven is so powerful is probably because it has many resources from the upper realm!"

A fierce glint appeared in the Ninth Elder's eyes!

"How did you know?"

"Because I understand this space-breaking technique better than you do!"

Zhuang Zhou said.

The best technique for breaking through space is based on the power of spacetime.

True Qi is secondary.

Originally, Zhuang Zhou did not possess the power of time and space.

But by a twist of fate, he possessed the best conditions for practicing the Void-Breaking Technique!

"Do you know that the more you know about certain things, the faster you'll die?"

The Ninth Elder spoke in a sinister tone.

"You dare threaten me? Believe me or not, I'll use Third Gear!"

Zhuang Zhou glared at him threateningly.

The Ninth Elder was so angry that his beard bristled.

"You broke your promise! I gave you both the Daoist Rhyme and the Heaven-Breaking Technique!"

"Ninth Elder, haven't you heard the saying, 'Women and petty men are the most difficult to deal with'? Liu Yang is a woman, and I am a petty man! Besides, you're going to kill us all! It's not wrong for us to break our promises to our enemies!"

Zhuang Zhou said quietly.

"You scoundrel!"

The Ninth Elder cursed angrily.

"Thank you!"

Zhuang Zhou was not angry; instead, he bowed!

The Ninth Elder was completely out of options!

What can we do about this shameless bastard!

"Fine, I won't kill you! Just help me break the curse on something!"

The Ninth Elder said dejectedly.

"Then swear that neither you nor the Ziyang Cave Heaven behind you will hunt down Liu Yang and me!"

Zhuang Zhou's abacus was practically exploding in the Ninth Elder's face.

The Ninth Elder's face darkened.

He has been practicing self-cultivation for many years.

I have never been threatened or schemed against like this before.

"What? Ninth Elder is unwilling?"

Zhuang Zhou looked at the Ninth Elder with a half-smile.

His laughter made the Ninth Elder's bones ache.

"Yes! Yes!"

The Ninth Elder said through gritted teeth.

People have to bow their heads under the roof.

Now his life is in Zhuang Zhou's hands, so what can he do even if he doesn't want to?

Afterwards, the Ninth Elder and the other Saint Realm experts from Ziyang Cave Heaven swore an oath, promising not to pursue Zhuang Zhou and Liu Yang, and that all previous grudges would be wiped clean. Only then did Zhuang Zhou place his palm on the Ninth Elder's head, releasing the curse power from his body.

With the curse lifted, the Ninth Elder felt completely relieved.

That excruciating pain finally disappeared.

The Ninth Elder looked at Zhuang Zhou.

His expression was somewhat complicated.

The oath prevented him from taking action against Zhuang Zhou and Liu Yang.

The Ninth Elder was a man who knew when to advance and when to retreat.

He quickly recognized reality and chose to let go of his grudges with Zhuang Zhou.

The best outcome is the benefit that can be obtained in hand.

The Ninth Elder looked at the cross placed in the center of the church.

"How about I take this cross? The cross needs to be filled with energy, and it's getting more and more exaggerated each time! With your abilities, I'm afraid you can't replenish the cross's energy in a short time! But my Ziyang Cave Heaven can do that!"

The Ninth Elder looked at the cross, his eyes filled with greed. Zhuang Zhou also noticed that only the elder held a square token in his hand. This token was the communication token between the elder and Ziyang Cave Heaven. If the elder chose to refuse, this token would likely activate immediately.

Zhuang Zhou understood that an established power like Ziyang Cave Heaven might not be unable to withstand the power of the oath.

However, the price to be paid will likely be enormous!

That's why the Ninth Elder temporarily chose to compromise. However, given enough benefits, the Ninth Elder might also break his oath, endure the backlash, and summon other powerful figures from Ziyang Cave Heaven to seize the cross!

The temptation of the cross is enough.

It can even defy fate for Saint Realm experts in Ziyang Cave.

Under such temptation.

It's hard to guarantee that the powerful figures in Ziyang Cave Heaven won't be tempted.

"I can give this cross to you!" Zhuang Zhou said after a moment of silence.

After much deliberation, he realized that what the Ninth Elder said was indeed true. If he wanted to fully replenish the energy in the cross, it would probably be something he couldn't do in a short time.

Since Ziyang Cave Heaven wants this cross, then give it to him. If he becomes strong enough, he can snatch the cross back. Then, all the energy filling the cross within Ziyang Cave Heaven will be his. But if he doesn't have the strength to take the cross back, then he can't protect it. As the saying goes, "A common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime." This cross in his hands will not bring any opportunity; instead, it will become the source of disaster.

Zhuangzi understood all of this and readily relinquished the cross.

"We're taking this cross with us, and you can't stay in this church any longer!"

Another sage from Ziyang Grotto Heaven, seeing Zhuang Zhou compromise, suddenly stepped forward and said to Zhuang Zhou in a cold voice.

A hint of anger flickered across Zhuang Zhou's face.

"I have already made enough concessions to you, don't push your luck. Do you really think I'm someone you can easily bully?"

Zhuang Zhou spoke with great dissatisfaction to the sage of Ziyang Grotto-heaven, his fists clenched tightly, barely concealing his anger.

However, Liu Yang tugged at Zhuang Zhou's sleeve.

"Zhuang Zhou's place is of no value to us anymore, there's no need to waste our breath arguing with them!"

Liu Yang gently shook her head.

She seemed to have already realized something.

Zhuang Zhou glared angrily at the elder of Ziyang Cave and uttered some harsh words.

"You'll remember this! I'll make you pay for this sooner or later! Humph!"

Zhuang Zhou, along with Liu Yang, turned and left.

Watching Zhuang Zhou and Liu Yang leave, the Saint Realm expert from Ziyang Cave Heaven who had just forced Zhuang Zhou to leave asked the Ninth Elder beside him.

Are you really just going to watch them both leave?
