Chapter 206
"You are so young, why are you so blind?"
The youth in yellow robes walked to the edge of the pool:
"Look down."
Biyao, who was to the side, couldn't help but look down after hearing this. She saw that the red stones on the ceiling of the cave cast a reflection in the pool that looked like the shape of a palm.
Ignoring that her clothes were getting wet, she jumped into the pool, bent over, and reached out to press down on the position of the palm in the water.
"Stupid, there are seven red stones, yet you only extend one hand."
The youth in yellow robes said leisurely:
"Could it be that a demonic girl of the Demon Sect is special, and one palm has seven fingers!"
Biyao was so angry she rolled her eyes. She immediately extended her left hand, found two small stone protrusions next to the reflections of the other two red stones, and pressed down on them.
Following a harsh and heavy "clack-clack" sound, the stone wall behind the water curtain slowly receded, revealing a cave entrance.
"Demon girl, we've reached your Demon Sect's territory, why don't you hurry up and lead the way."
Biyao snorted coldly and stepped into the cave entrance, with the youth in yellow robes following behind her.
The two went deep into the dark tunnel, and before they reached the end, they saw a stone chamber.
Inside the chamber were two huge stone carved statues: one with a kind face and gentle eyes, standing with a smile; the other ferocious and evil, with a black face, ghost horns, eight arms, and four heads.
Seeing Biyao's posture as if she were about to offer incense and pay respects to the two evil gods, Zhuang Buran said directly:
"You worship slowly, I'll take a step ahead."
Biyao immediately turned her head. Seeing the youth in yellow robes disappear, she didn't bother with the solemn ritual of worship and quickly chased after him.
"Zhang Xiaofan, what time is it now? You are still here distinguishing between the righteous path and the Demon Sect with me. Don't you know that only by working together can we possibly have a glimmer of survival?"
"If I remember correctly, it has always been you holding me back."
The youth in yellow robes said while walking:
"At the beginning, I told you there was danger, but not only did you not listen, you also thought I wanted to monopolize the secret treasures of the Dripping Blood Cave."
"Below the cliff, it was I who discovered the cave in the old tree. Once inside the cave, I told you where the mechanisms of the Dripping Blood Cave were, but after you searched for a long time, it was still me who had to remind you."
"It wasn't easy to enter the real Dripping Blood Cave, and instead of looking for a way out, you want to devoutly worship some evil god. You..."
"Alright, alright, stop talking."
The more Biyao heard, the more she felt ashamed, and she hurriedly walked to the front.
Not long after, they walked to a cave entrance. Outside the entrance stood a stone tablet engraved with the words: "Heaven and earth are not benevolent, treating all things as straw dogs."
The two glanced at it slightly, then went all the way to the bottom of the cave. They saw a bluestone platform in front of a smooth stone wall, a skeleton sitting cross-legged, and a tunnel on each side of the stone wall.
"There's nothing to see in a dead skeleton. One person takes one side, see if there's any path."
The youth in yellow robes walked toward the left tunnel, and Biyao looked at the skeleton and walked toward the right tunnel.
The left tunnel led directly to a stone chamber. The stone walls inside were engraved with dense text, and the opening chapter was the words "Heavenly Book Volume One."
The youth in yellow robes looked at the Heavenly Book engraved in the stone chamber at a glance, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he thought to himself:
"As expected of the general outline of the Heavenly Book, it clearly explains the Daoist body's natural creation, the Buddhist school's focus on realizing one's own nature, and the extreme peculiarities of the various divine abilities of the Demon Sect."
The shocking Qi on his body disappeared in an instant, and deep in his pupils, there was a faint shadow of a human-headed, dragon-bodied figure stepping on a god-demon Eight Trigrams diagram.
"It's not easy. The Fengyun world's Waijing Third Layer, the Shaobai Shaoge world's Waijing Fourth Layer, today I have reached the Waijing Fifth Layer. Every move and style finally has the power to destroy a radius of several dozen miles."
Zhuang Buran's eyes were slightly deep:
"If the Taiqing Realm cultivators of this world open the Zhu Xian Sword Array, one strike can destroy a continuous mountain range. It seems I can do it too."
"No rush. After obtaining the five volumes of the Heavenly Book and gaining the principles of this world, integrating them into the Dharma Body I am refining, I should enter the Waijing Sixth Layer."
At this time, Biyao walked into the stone chamber, but saw that she had an exquisite little golden bell in her hand. Just as she was about to speak, upon seeing the Heavenly Book on the stone wall, she said:
"Good for you, Zhang Xiaofan. It's a pity you are still a person of the righteous path. Don't you know that the Heavenly Book is the classic of our Holy Sect? Passed down from ancient times to the present, all the divine abilities of the Holy Sect disciples are realized from this Heavenly Book."
Biyao's eyes turned, and she said with a smile:
"You are actually peeking at the Heavenly Book here. Don't you want to be a disciple of the Qingyun Sect? Do you want to come and join our Holy Sect?"
"Ignorant."
Zhuang Buran's expression was strange:
"Listening to you say this, it's clear you don't understand the Heavenly Book, and you don't know that the current cultivation methods of Daoism, Buddhism, and the Demon Sect are all evolved from the Heavenly Book."
"What?"
Biyao had a look of disbelief. She couldn't believe that the cultivation methods of Daoism, Buddhism, and the Demon Sect came from the same source, and she was also extremely shocked that the youth in yellow robes could understand the obscure and mysterious Heavenly Book and even comprehend its essence.
She couldn't help but look at the first volume of the Heavenly Book, but the more she looked, the bigger her head felt, discovering that she couldn't understand the meaning of the text at all.
"Read slowly, I'll go find if there are any escape mechanisms."
Zhuang Buran turned and walked out of the stone chamber, came to the sitting skeleton, waved his sleeve, and shook the skeleton into powder.
"A dignified giant of the Demon Sect, yet unable to see through the word 'love'. I feel ashamed for you, and even more feel it's not worth it for those righteous and demonic people who died at your hands."
After the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.
Biyao walked out of the stone chamber and saw the youth in yellow robes leaning against the stone wall, bored. A playful look appeared on her pretty face:
"It seems you also have times when you are at your wit's end. It's better to say as the old saying goes, one person's plan is short, two people's plans are long."
Zhuang Buran signaled to the lines of small characters engraved on the stone wall, and Biyao looked over, somewhat confused.
"This seems to be talking about a heartbreaking love affair, that is, the woman was heartbroken, and in the end, the man also regretted it endlessly."
Biyao suddenly remembered something, looked at the small golden bell in her hand, and said thoughtfully:
"I never imagined that Madam Jinling actually had feelings for this damned Black-Hearted Old Ghost. It must be that this Black-Hearted Old Ghost was unfaithful..."
The youth in yellow robes interrupted:
"Why do you always fail to focus on the point? Didn't you notice that there are two characters indented, which fit quite well with the small bell in your hand?"
Biyao was first so angry that her cheeks puffed up, feeling that she had never been so despised since she was a child, but after comparing it with the small bell, her mood instantly improved a lot.
She immediately inserted the bell, and seeing there was no movement, without waiting for the youth in yellow robes to speak again, she immediately tried turning it left and right.
"Clack clack!"
The two retreated to a short distance in an instant, and the stone wall collapsed a layer with a "boom" sound.
Biyao walked in impatiently, but was greatly disappointed. It wasn't any cave entrance or tunnel at all, but just lines of text.
"This is the 'Infatuation Curse' that turns a woman's essence and blood into a fierce curse."
The youth in yellow robes walked over to take a look and nodded:
"You Demon Sect people really know how to play, always sacrificing your essence, blood, flesh, and three souls and seven spirits to gain the great power of winning against the strong with the weak."
After saying that, he waved his sleeve, and a gust of wind instantly blew away the text on the stone wall:
"Crooked ways and evil paths, why keep them!"
"You actually recovered so quickly?" Biyao said in surprise.
Zhuang Buran said meaningfully:
"My cultivation is far deeper than you imagine."
"Boasting. If your cultivation were truly deep, you wouldn't have been successfully ambushed by me." Biyao curled her lips.
The youth in yellow robes smiled and said:
"Looking at your appearance like a young lady from a wealthy family, if your family found out you were in danger, they should come to save you immediately, right?"
"So, shouldn't we stop tossing and turning now?"
He paused and continued:
"Almost forgot, if I disappear for a long time, my master will definitely come looking for me too."
Biyao didn't know what she thought of, her expression was extremely bleak, and she said softly:
"My father wouldn't come to save me. He wishes I were dead right now."
"Anyway, we are waiting for death, so just say it and let me hear. It just so happens you can tell your sad past, and let me be happy."
Biyao showed slight anger, as if she wanted to make a move, but immediately heard the youth in yellow robes say unhurriedly:
"We can compare who is more miserable, see if your experience is miserable, or mine is miserable."
Biyao was stunned, and the resentment and annoyance in her heart disappeared more than half.
"Why are you stunned? Are you allowed to have a heartbreaking past, but I can't have a painful experience?"
The youth in yellow robes waved his hand to signal:
"It's empty here. The stone chamber where you wanted to worship the god just now has a few cushions. We can go there and talk slowly."
