At the inception of the dynasty, the Grand Ancestor Emperor divided the world into Nine Provinces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jizhou,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhaonan Prefecture,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the prefecture has a county named Gu’an, meaning long stable peace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not far from the county town is Dingseng Mountain, on the mountain sits Cien Temple, and in the temple is an old Monk, whose Dharma name is Wuyuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The eighth day of the fourth month,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Buddha’s birthday.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On this day, a distinguished guest arrived at the temple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The master of the Fang Mansion, Fang Zheng!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This man appeared in Gu’an County twenty years ago, his origins unknown, rumored to be from once wealthy ancestors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In twenty years,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Zheng rose from obscurity to become a local overlord, with deep achievements in Martial Dao and Magic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nowadays, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that a stomp from him would make the whole city tremble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Donor Fang.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wuyuan, holding a Zen Staff, stood before the stone pavilion, speaking as his snowy white eyebrows slightly trembled:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How about this place?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Very good!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Zheng stood with his hands behind his back at the edge of the stone pavilion, gazing into the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was tall and robust, his facial features as if chiseled with an axe, giving an impression of unapproachability.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The long robe on his body concealed the explosive muscles, adding a touch of elegance to his demeanor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On his left waist hung a white short stick, and on the right side, a black pouch, known respectively as Desolate Pole and Five Ghosts’ Pouch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Desolate Pole could shake others’ Souls, and within the Five Ghosts’ Pouch were five Fierce Ghosts, both extremely frightening Magical Artifacts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The mountain’s expanse, its ups and downs akin to a dragon coiled with tigers entrenched, residing here would undoubtedly broaden the mind.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Zheng turned around, making direct eye contact with Wuyuan:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master, are you injured?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Twenty years ago, though the abbot of Cien Temple had white hair, he still had abundant Qi and Blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>he had grown old.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His aura appeared unstable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Indeed, I can’t hide it from you, Donor.\" Wuyuan smiled bitterly, taking a step forward with his staff, standing shoulder to shoulder with Fang Zheng:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You have only spoken of the scenery here, can you discern anything else?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\" Fang Zheng pondered momentarily, then spoke:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The mountains are like shackles, with Dingseng Mountain as the lock, furthermore, it’s the node where land’s veins intertwine.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Though this place has abundant Spiritual Mechanism, it’s also prone to being struck by Evil Qi!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Indeed.\" Wuyuan nodded:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Unexpectedly, Donor Fang is proficient in Feng Shui and Qi Observation Skills, saving this poor monk considerable trouble.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He paused, then continued:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In the past, a Zen Master established Cien Temple here, firstly to widely disseminate Buddhist Skill, and secondly to suppress anomalies within the mountains.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dingseng Mountain is where the Qi flows converge, should there be anomalies wishing to emerge from the mountains to trouble the people, this place would be the first impacted.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Cien Temple has a Martial Arts Academy, which can rely on the mountain’s form for defense.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The compassion of predecessors.\" Fang Zheng pressed his hands together in salute:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am in admiration!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alas!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wuyuan sighed lightly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In the past, seniors had profound Buddhist Skill, capable of subduing threats for a century, but I am far lesser now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He shook his head, saying:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When a country is about to fall, demons will surely rise!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nowadays, with the turbulent times, Heaven and Earth’s Qi Mechanism frequently exhibits anomalies, resulting in the spawning of demons everywhere.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not long ago, this poor monk sensed the emergence of a demon within the mountains and went to investigate with Yuanxing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The result was...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If not for Yuanxing’s mastery of the Vajra Arhat body, this poor monk might not have returned to Cien Temple.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh!\" Fang Zheng raised an eyebrow:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What kind of demon, that it was so formidable?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The so-called demons, are mostly creatures tainted by Evil Qi or devouring Spiritual Objects, born by chance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such creatures, without any guidance, driven by their beastly nature, would wreak havoc.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the strength of nascent demons is generally not strong, merely possessing slightly more brute strength than ordinary beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet Wuyuan and Yuanxing were no match?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It was a Wolf Demon.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wuyuan’s brow furrowed deeply, speaking:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That Wolf Demon had Copper Skin and Iron Bone, moved like lightning, and could call upon a wolf pack to attack, nearly costing us our lives.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Donor Fang,\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your prowess is immeasurable, and your subordinates are filled with experts, may I implore you to eradicate this threat for the people!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Consider it done.\" Fang Zheng nodded slightly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master, please elaborate on the specifics.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Abbot Wuyuan is a Mage who has cultivated for many years, proficient in Demonic Suppression Spells, while Yuanxing is a Qi Refining Martial Artist, practicing the Vajra Arhat Technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Together, even he would be cautious, naturally, he wanted to understand the situation before deciding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wuyuan agreed, gesturing with his hand:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Donor Fang, please have a seat.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Abbot.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, two little novice monks entered the stone pavilion, one holding a teapot and cups, bowing their heads in greeting:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The tea is ready.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wuyuan smiled, saying:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Cien Temple is backed by the mountains, occasionally obtaining Spirit Tea, such is this one, Donor Fang, please have a taste.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saying this, he lifted a tea cup, taking a sip first, and raised the cup as a gesture of invitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Long have I heard of the Spirit Tea of Cien Temple, today I must savor it well.\" Fang Zheng sat down, lifting the tea cup.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tea entered his belly, and just as he was about to speak, his expression suddenly changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Something’s wrong!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The tea is poisoned!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah!\" Wuyuan was momentarily stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The novice monk who poured the tea turned pale, shaking his head repeatedly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It wasn’t me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It wasn’t me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Swish!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The accompanying little novice monk appeared behind Fang Zheng at an unknown time, holding a dagger, stabbing fiercely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His speed was fast, his hand even created afterimages, yet not a sound was made.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, he was skilled in the art of assassination.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ding...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dagger abruptly halted a short distance from Fang Zheng’s body, unable to move an inch forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Protective Force!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little novice monk’s expression drastically changed:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re not a Great Zhou Celestial Martial Artist, but a Flawless Martial Artist!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Common people who practice martial arts must first perform Blood Exchange, after Three Blood their Essence flourishes, nurturing True Qi, known as Qi Refining Martial Artist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Becoming a Martial Artist makes one a master!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Martial Artists are further divided into Minor Circulation, Grand Circulation, and
