Fang Wang maintained a distance of thirty feet from the mysterious figure on the map; the smoky haze wavered, and the figure gradually solidified as if a ghost had appeared. Even under the bright light of day, it was quite eerie.
“You… what are you?”
Before Fang Wang could ask, the Green Snake anxiously inquired. It was more frightened than Fang Wang, on two accounts: one was out of genuine fear, and the other was fear of being misunderstood by Fang Wang.
The figure was blurred, only allowing for a rough outline to be seen.
“Junior, do you wish to lay your hands on the Heavenly Gang Saint Body Technique?”
A voice aged with time emanated from the mysterious figure, its tone calm.
Fang Wang, holding the Heavenly Palace Halberd, replied, “Wouldn’t it be a pity if such a fine technique weren’t passed down?”
Currently, his physique was not an advantage. His ability to fight beyond his realm mainly relied on Solaris Spiritual Power and the Great Perfection Spell. The Heavenly Body was a powerful constitution from ancient times. Even Zhou Xue had praised it, and naturally, he coveted it.
“This map indeed records the site of the Heavenly Gang Saint Body Technique’s inheritance, but the trials there are strict. Had you not burned this map to awaken a wisp of my consciousness and recklessly gone there, you would’ve undoubtedly died.”
The mysterious figure spoke slowly, causing Fang Wang to raise an eyebrow.
Fang Wang immediately bowed with clasped hands and said, “Please, senior, give me guidance.”
The other party clearly intended to guide him. Even if it were not a living person, such a gesture was proper.
Addressing Fang Wang, the mysterious figure spoke, “First, you must reach the Condensation Spirit Realm, and second, you must grasp the Nine Dragons Divine Transformation Art—both are indispensable.”
Upon hearing this, Fang Wang inwardly breathed a sigh of relief.
Not too difficult!
With his talent and status within the Great Abyss Gate, reaching the Condensation Spirit Realm was merely a matter of time. As for the Nine Dragons Divine Transformation Art, he had already achieved the Great Perfection Realm.
“Could senior pass on the Nine Dragons Divine Transformation Art to my young master?” the Green Snake suddenly asked.
Fang Wang glanced at it, suddenly finding it somewhat more pleasing to the eye.
Although he had already mastered the Nine Dragons Divine Transformation Art, the Green Snake did not know; to make such a request indicated that, even if not sincerely, it at least seemed to want to please him on the surface.
“My duty is only to remind you of these two points. The path of cultivation is, after all, about seeking achievements as difficult as ascending to heaven.”
After saying this, the mysterious figure disappeared like smoke dispersing, leaving Fang Wang unable to inquire about its identity.
The map, burned by the Solaris True Fire, turned to ashes and scattered with the wind.
Fang Wang and the Green Snake looked at each other in silence for a long time.
After a while, the Green Snake finally expressed, “If an ordinary person had obtained the map and gone directly to seek the Heavenly Gang Saint Body Technique, they would likely face a slim chance of survival. The young master is extraordinary, burning the map and instead, gaining the approval of the predecessor.”
Fang Wang felt that he had inadvertently done the right thing, but naturally, he wouldn’t voice his true thoughts.
He then began to check the five stones the Green Snake had brought, covering his palm with Spiritual Power and taking the stones to wash by the river.
The Green Snake drew near, maintaining a safe distance.
After Fang Wang cleaned the stones and placed them in his storage bag, the Green Snake finally spoke, “Young master, I know of a place with many Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, but there is a Great Demon guarding it.”

“How strong is this Great Demon?”
Fang Wang asked casually, having set a goal for himself to break through in the Great Saint’s Grotto-Heaven and forge his second Lifespirit Treasure.
The Green Snake replied, “Equivalent to a Human Cultivator at the Ninth Level of the Spirit Elixir Realm.”
Fang Wang looked at it with a smile, “It seems you’re quite remarkable, not just any ordinary snake demon.”
The Green Snake responded, “The young master jests. Having lived here for three hundred years, I’ve naturally received some inheritance. Over the years, cultivators have occasionally strayed in, so I have a general understanding of Human Cultivators.”
Fang Wang thought this snake demon was not simple; after all, it managed to cry for such a long time in the hands of the lady in white, suggesting it had something up its sleeve.
Having rested for half a month, it was time to set out!
“Lead the way!”
“Alright, young master!”
The Green Snake immediately set off, its body writhing joyfully.
Fang Wang watched its movements, suddenly feeling a bit absurd.
He was actually embarking on an adventure with a snake?
…
Two days later.
At the entrance of a valley, Fang Wang stood under a tree, while the Green Snake slithered onto a nearby branch. One human, one demon, they looked in the same direction.
The flowers and trees in this area were dense, and the sunlight could hardly penetrate. Even at noon, the forest behind Fang Wang was pitch-black.
“Is that it?”
Fang Wang asked, his right hand resting on the hilt of his sword.
After two days of interaction, Fang Wang had learned the name of the Green Snake, which called itself Xiao Zi. A Green Snake calling itself Xiao Zi made Fang Wang suspect it was colorblind.
Xiao Zi nodded, “Yes, that’s it. It tried to eat me before. Be careful, young master, its breath is very poisonous!”
Looking in the direction of its snake eyes, ahead the valley was filled with colorful flowers and plants, the tallest reaching up to two zhang high, and various bright fruits scattered like stars. At first glance, the valley seemed like a galaxy composed of exotic fruits, extremely enchanting.
In the center of the valley was a depression, its surface reflecting various colors, and a four-zhang-tall red toad lay there, its body covered with various mosses and flowers. At a glance, one might think it was a small hill.
Clang—
Fang Wang stepped forward and drew his sword in a fluid motion.
Xiao Zi, still somewhat concerned, couldn’t help but say, “Young master, its back is incredibly hard. Its weakness should be the eyes…”
Fang Wang took five steps and immediately unleashed the Jinghong Divine Sword Art, gathering thirty-six swords with overflowing sword energy that whipped up a fierce wind, causing the surrounding branches and leaves to shake violently. This startled the giant red toad into opening its eyes, which were cold like those of a venomous snake.
Xiao Zi watched the thirty-six sword forms appear around Fang Wang and immediately shut its mouth, snake eyes firmly fixed on Fang Wang.
Fang Wang did not stop. With sword in right hand, he thrust forward, and the thirty-six Jinghong swords shot out violently, converging into a massive sword energy that flew forth with unstoppable force, tossing up flowers and plants along its path.
With a boom!
The giant red toad was struck by the sword energy, instantly exploding, its flesh scattering every which way onto the surrounding flowers, trees, and even hanging on the distant mountain walls, tainted with poisonous blood.
Xiao Zi moved like lightning, dodging the flying flesh and quickly scampered up to the branches above.
Fang Wang’s movements were seamless, his robes fluttering as he did not even blink. After thrusting the Qingjun Sword forward, he flicked his wrist, spinning the treasured sword, and smoothly sheathed it with a backhand grip.
Drawing the sword, thrusting, and sheathing—all in less than the time it takes to take a breath!
He dispatched the giant red toad in an instant!
Fang Wang seemed calm and composed, but in fact, he had used all his strength. It was the strongest Jinghong thirty-six swords he could muster at the time. It was not just to kill the enemy but also to intimidate Xiao Zi.
“Go take a look around and see if there are any other demons nearby,”
Fang Wang said to Xiao Zi with his back turned. Hearing this, Xiao Zi immediately snapped to attention and agreed before darting into the forest.
Fang Wang took out the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures record, comparing it with the treasures he encountered along the way, looking for their descriptions. Different Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures have different ways of harvesting; some lose their Spiritual Energy once removed from the soil, some wither swiftly if broken, and others are poisonous to the touch and can invade the body. They were indeed varied and bizarre; Fang Wang had been amazed the first time he looked at the record.
While harvesting, Fang Wang did not neglect his surroundings; he kept his divine sense on alert.
Half an hour later, Xiao Zi returned, and Fang Wang was still picking. The herbs and precious fruits here were too plentiful—it had to be said, the Great Saint’s Grotto-Heaven truly was a great opportunity. If one could stay alive here for half a year, anyone could strike it rich.
“Young master, there are no demons nearby.”
Xiao Zi spoke softly, the tone respectful.
The reason it took so long to return was that it needed to calm its nerves.
Fang Wang was simply too terrifying!
With such strength, any thought of ambushing him was futile, and Xiao Zi also feared that Fang Wang might kill it after using its services.
“Then go to a higher place and keep watch.”
Fang Wang uttered casually. He didn’t need Xiao Zi’s help; after all, the creature had not yet taken human form.
Hearing this, Xiao Zi immediately left and scurried straight to the mountain wall before swiftly climbing to the summit.
It wasn’t until deep into the night that Fang Wang finally pillaged the entire valley, gaining a massive haul and even acquiring a demon core.
In the night, they came to a small stream in the forest. By the campfire, Fang Wang began drawing a map.
He had a strong memory, but he feared that he wouldn’t be able to remember the map if he were to enter the Heavenly Palace for cultivation before acquiring the Heavenly Gang Saint Body Technique. Even with a strong memory, one couldn’t possibly remember a map seen once hundreds of years ago.
Xiao Zi curled up quietly on the other side of the fire, not daring to disturb Fang Wang.
Ever since Fang Wang had unleashed the Jinghong thirty-six swords, it had grown less talkative.
Crack!
The sound of a broken twig came from the side. Fang Wang immediately glanced over, and Xiao Zi suddenly lifted its head.
A figure emerged from the darkness, and with the moonlight, Fang Wang could see her silhouette. His expression turned odd as he said, “It was the same when searching for Fang Hanyu before—are you sure you haven’t cast some sort of spell on us?”
The person was none other than Zhou Xue.
As Zhou Xue approached, she laughed and said, “One day, you’ll be thankful for this spell.”
