"So that's how it is."

Fang Yi nodded, but meeting an acquaintance here was just right for inquiring about news, so he couldn't help but ask, "I heard that this secret meeting was organized by an existence in the depths of the mist?"

"Yes."

Jiang Wushang responded, saying, "The depths of the mist have little contact with the safe area, but it's not absolutely none. This secret meeting just happened to be established by one of those existences seven or eight years ago.

At the beginning of its formation, it was for the convenience of exchanging resources. Later, various major sects paid secret attention to it several times and found that the opponent was very honest and did not cross the red line, so they didn't interfere much."

After all, they also had disciples who needed to trade resources.

Letting disciples trade with them could exercise the disciples' knowledge and increase their experience, so why not?

"Moreover, the secret meeting here is not something that ordinary people can enter. It's not that top-notch experts cannot enter. On the martial arts path, at the very least, one must be a Gold Bone Realm expert to be qualified to be invited."

Jiang Wushang whispered.

"Does that mean besides martial arts people, there are people from other paths who also came to participate in the secret meeting?"

Fang Yi inquired.

"Yes."

Jiang Wushang nodded, looking at the figures here with a calm gaze, and responded, "I don't know about others, but that group of people on the seeking god path definitely came."

"Alright."

Fang Yi pondered in his heart and suddenly asked, "Is your path's way of accepting apprentices really this strict? Is there no room for relaxation?"

Jiang Wushang looked at him in surprise and chuckled, "Why? You still haven't given up? I said you are not suitable for my path; even if you practice, it's just a waste of effort."

"But I think I have extraordinary talent."

Fang Yi wanted to try.

"Many people I've met have said that."

Jiang Wushang shook his head and said, "Actually, you don't have to be persistent. The Evil Martial Arts path also has powerful ones, but the drawbacks are too great. If there were no drawbacks, they wouldn't be weaker than the four major paths at all.

Especially the Poison Martial Lineage you practice; their poison is shockingly terrifying. There was once a great cultivator of the Poison Martial Lineage who went on a killing spree in the depths of the mist, and with his own power, he turned a territory of hundreds of miles into a barren land. For the next hundred years, not a blade of grass grew, and any living creature that approached would die instantly. It's still a forbidden land until now."

"Oh?"

Fang Yi raised an eyebrow and said, "And then?"

"Then... he was killed by someone."

Jiang Wushang pondered and said, "But the person who killed him was bullying the small with the big, relying on having practiced for decades longer than him to kill him. But although he killed the opponent, he himself was also infected with the opponent's poison and spent decades to exhaust the toxins. This result can be considered a lose-lose situation."

"Alright."

Fang Yi responded, pondering in his heart.

Poison Martial Lineage...

It indeed has its merits.

The 【Power Poison】 in his body came from them.

"By the way, I know a stronghold of the 【Poison Martial Lineage】, and I have had friendship with them. If you are willing, I will give you the token, and you can go directly to seek apprenticeship later."

Jiang Wushang said.

"Many thanks, where is the token?"

Fang Yi said.

Jiang Wushang smiled slightly, took out a black token from his body, and laughed, "But I can't give you this token for nothing. You also have to help me with a favor. Don't worry, after the matter is done, besides this token, I can also help you get a high-grade martial art."

Fang Yi immediately sized up the opponent strangely.

He knew this kid was not a fuel-efficient lamp!

No wonder he ran over and said so many words to himself?

"What favor?"

Fang Yi inquired.

"Have you heard that the group of experts on the seeking god path has been looking for martial arts experts to join forces during this period?"

Jiang Wushang used a secret sound transmission method, and the voice sounded in Fang Yi's ear, saying, "The reason they are looking for martial arts experts is because their opportunity land is covered by a restriction. Once they enter, their divine power will be suppressed, leaving only their physical bodies.

So they can only look for martial arts experts to join forces, wanting martial arts experts to help them seize that thing. After all, the physical bodies of martial arts experts are obvious to all, and martial arts experts are proficient in close-quarters combat, so they will be like a fish in water in that forbidden land."

"Isn't there also the path of transforming into monsters? Isn't their physical body stronger? Why don't they go find experts on the path of transforming into monsters to help?"

Fang Yi inquired.

"How do you know they didn't look?"

Jiang Wushang shook his head and continued to transmit sound, "Among the people present, there might be experts on the path of transforming into monsters. However, mountains and rivers block the way, and the distance between places is too far, so they don't have time to find more experts on the path of transforming into monsters. That's why they settled for the next best thing and looked for martial arts experts to help."

After all, martial arts is the most common.

People on the other four paths are rarer than one another, and on weekdays, they are basically all training in the depths of the mist.

This opportunity appeared too hastily, and these people on the seeking god path didn't have time to find people in the depths of the mist. Otherwise, once the time was missed, the opportunity contained within might be seized by others first.

"Alright."

Fang Yi pondered and said, "What exactly is this opportunity? Isn't it said that it's only useful for people on the seeking god path? Why do you also want to get it?"

Jiang Wushang smiled slightly and said, "Last time I told you, my sect's inheritance needs to practice the heart in the red dust. Whether it's martial arts, seeking gods, becoming demons, or transforming into monsters, one must be involved. Do you think this opportunity is useful to me? As for what it is, I can't tell you yet!"

"But you also think too highly of me; I can't deal with them."

Fang Yi shook his head lightly.

"Don't be afraid. They are not necessarily stronger than you."

Jiang Wushang transmitted sound, "If the Poison Martial Lineage hides well and suddenly poisons them, it will definitely catch them off guard. Don't worry, even if you don't get that thing in the end, I will fulfill my promise and give you a high-grade martial art. Just try your best, how about it?"

Fang Yi immediately pondered again.

"Let's do this, let me think about it first."

"Easy to say."

Jiang Wushang smiled.

Another period of time passed.

Sparse people kept coming over.

Another while passed.

Suddenly, in front of the bamboo forest, the mist surged, emitting bursts of sinister aura, just like some gate to the underworld had suddenly opened. A gale blew, sweeping this place and bringing a different aura.

Everyone's eyes flashed, and they looked back instantly.

"It's here!"

Jiang Wushang whispered, "That existence in the mist is about to appear."

Fang Yi didn't say a word, staring tightly at the area in front of him.

Boom!

He saw the mist in front surging faster, and a large black shadow suddenly emerged from the mist. It stopped when it was still a distance away from the crowd, making it difficult to see its specific face.

One could only see the shadow was massive, and its entire body was rippling with bursts of aura like swamp evil water, which was somewhat unpleasant and suffocating.

Especially in this mass of shadow, there were two emerald-green ghostly lights, like eyes, sweeping across the crowd present.

Everyone swept by it couldn't help but feel a chill in their bodies.

There was a feeling of suddenly becoming transparent all over.

Many people felt a chill in their hearts and channeled secret techniques one after another, only then did they feel slightly better.

"It seems there are many people here this time, and even people from other paths have appeared."

A hoarse and obscure voice came from the black shadow, saying, "The rules of the secret meeting, I think you all already know. Coming out this time, I brought a total of twenty-one heavenly materials and earthly treasures or items of equal value..."

Heavenly materials and earthly treasures are exceptionally precious. Whether it's martial arts experts or figures on other paths, they will all need them, so they are often priceless.

Plus, most of these things grow in the depths of the mist. If you want to get them, you can only go to the mist for adventure. During this period, there are huge crises. Even famous experts on the four paths dare not say that they can return unscathed one hundred percent.

So I don't know how many experts die in the mist every year.

Now the opponent appeared and took out more than twenty heavenly materials and earthly treasures. One can imagine the scale of his handwriting.

The scene was silent.

Everyone didn't say a word, looking tightly ahead.

The massive black shadow continued to say hoarsely, "The first heavenly material and earthly treasure is a thousand-year thunder-struck wood. This tree has grown for a thousand years and is located in the depths of the mist. Not long ago, it was hit by a thunder tribulation, and thunder patterns have appeared on the surface..."

Thunder-struck wood?

Fang Yi's eyebrows moved slightly, and he subconsciously looked at Jiang Wushang beside him.

This thing should only be useful for people on the seeking immortality or seeking god path, right?

The path of transforming into monsters cultivates the physical body.

The path of becoming demons cultivates something unknown, but listening to the name, it mostly has nothing to do with magical artifacts.

"I want this thing. I will exchange a Soul Nourishing Grass and a Demon Spirit Mushroom for this thing."

Suddenly, one of the masked people directly made a hoarse voice.

The crowd surged.

Many people originally wanted to try, but when they heard the price reported by the opponent, they immediately frowned and gave up.

Whether it's Soul Nourishing Grass or Demon Spirit Mushroom, they are all things with shocking prices.

Those who can take out these two things, their identity will definitely not be simple.

They don't need to offend the opponent now.

Seeing that no one was competing, that piece of thousand-year thunder-struck wood was rolled by a cold gale and sent directly to the opponent's front. The person was also exceptionally sensible, took out the Soul Nourishing Grass and Demon Spirit Mushroom he brought, placed them on the cold gale, and was rolled by the cold gale, shrinking back instantly.

"Why aren't you interested?"

Fang Yi asked curiously subconsciously.

"I have better things, I don't need this thing."

Jiang Wushang shook his head.

Next, the second and third heavenly materials and earthly treasures began to appear one after another.

Each one was extremely rare.

Fang Yi just treated it as purely seeing the world, and kept silent all along.

Things like Blood Marrow Ice Crystal, Netherworld Soul-Guiding Lotus, Dragon Breath Earth Fire Ginseng, etc., each one was very extraordinary.

In the blink of an eye, it was at the back.

"The fifteenth thing is not a heavenly material or earthly treasure, but three Tendon Changing Pills!"

Suddenly, the massive black shadow made a hoarse and cold voice again. From that mass of shadow, a white porcelain bottle emerged, supported by yin energy, floating in mid-air.

Many people in the crowd flashed their eyes and instantly revealed strong interest.

"I have three Netherworld Grasses, willing to exchange!"

"I will add a Purple Qi Vine on the basis of Netherworld Grass!"

"I will add a Dragon Blood Ganoderma!"

"I have a piece of Heavenly Mysterious Iron..."

People kept speaking rapidly.

Obviously, all those participating in the competition now were martial artists.

Whether it's a Gold Bone Realm expert or a Tendon Changing Realm powerhouse, everyone needs Tendon Changing Pills.

Even if they go bankrupt, they won't care.

"I have a volume of incomplete method, called 【Hundred Skeleton Monster Canon】, I wonder if it can be exchanged?"

Fang Yi's voice was hoarse, and he suddenly spoke.

As soon as this was said, everyone's eyes changed, and they looked at Fang Yi in unison.

Even Jiang Wushang was secretly surprised.

Hundred Skeleton Monster Canon?

Things that can be called 【Canon】 or 【Scripture】 are all supreme true skills.

Moreover, 【Hundred Skeleton Monster Canon】 is a famous strange skill on the path of transforming into monsters, and he naturally heard of it.

Fang Yi actually possessed this thing?

How is that possible?

"Can you let me see it first to distinguish true from false."

The massive black shadow was obviously moved by this thing, making a hoarse voice, green eyes looking at Fang Yi, and some yin energy permeated the surroundings.

"Yes!"

Fang Yi took out the jade slip from his body, looked at it, and threw it toward the opponent casually.

The jade slip was instantly rolled into the black shadow.

A moment later.

The black shadow made a light sigh, hoarsely saying, "Pity, pity, the true scripture is damaged, seriously missing..."

He pondered for a while, but still said, "But exchanging for three Tendon Changing Pills can be considered okay. I will exchange with you!"

Whoosh!

The white jade bottle was wrapped in yin wind, flew over instantly, and landed in front of Fang Yi, accurately and without error.

Fang Yi flashed his eyes, grabbed the jade bottle, and opened it.

Red light flickered inside, and the temperature was scorching.

Three pills like red-hot iron pellets lay quietly, emitting bursts of vigorous heat.

He checked that there was no error, covered the bottle cap, and immediately put it into his arms.

Many people's eyes were cold, looking deeply toward Fang Yi's side.

Next, the transaction continued.

The massive black shadow continued to take out rare items one after another, letting everyone compete.

In the blink of an eye, it was the last item.

"The twenty-first thing is also an incomplete scripture, called 【Dragon Elephant Scripture】, it seems to be an ancient scripture left by your human secret sect, only one-third of the volume."

The massive black shadow said hoarsely.

"Dragon Elephant Scripture?"

"A middle-grade method for fleshly sanctification?"

"It's actually this!"

Many people were greatly moved.

They competed fiercely again.

Fang Yi had practiced the 【Diamond Armor】 of the secret sect before, which belonged to the primary method of fleshly sanctification. Now that he encountered the 【Dragon Elephant Scripture】, he naturally wouldn't miss it.

"I have a precious mirror, why don't you take another look."

He took out the mirror he got from shooting the seeker of immortality earlier from his arms and signaled with his hand.

"Shadow Chasing Mirror?"

"How is that possible?"

Many people revealed astonishment one after another, looking at Fang Yi.

They recognized this treasure.

This is the magic treasure of Lu Kuan, an elite expert on the seeking immortality path.

What kind of identity is this person?

"Yes!"

The massive black shadow took a look and nodded immediately.

Then a yin wind rolled an ancient book and flew out rapidly, coming to Fang Yi's front.

Fang Yi picked up the ancient book and put the yellow mirror over.

The yin wind rolled the mirror and shrank back again.

"This secret meeting has ended smoothly. I look forward to our next meeting. The next transaction will be in half a year."

The massive black shadow made a cold and hoarse voice.

Then the entire black shadow, like filthy tide water, began to retreat rapidly, accompanied by bursts of cold aura, the mist around surged, and in the blink of an eye, the black shadow disappeared without a trace.

Just after the opponent left, everyone used their movement techniques and swept toward all directions.

Fang Yi was the same, his figure unfolded, and he disappeared in an instant.

Jiang Wushang hurriedly chased after him from behind, transmitting sound and shouting, "Brother, remember our agreement, five days, only five days!"

Several mysterious experts behind chased out rapidly, wanting to intercept Fang Yi secretly.

But just after they chased out, they couldn't help but change their expressions, stopped suddenly, made muffled groans, their bodies swayed, and they retreated rapidly.

"Poison? That person left poison in the air!"

"What an overbearing poison, go!"

Several people felt their bodies scalding hot, their hearts terrified, their bodies leaped, and they left rapidly.

In the supply point.

Fang Yi took a large detour specifically, and until no one noticed, he took off his mask, changed his clothes, and returned to his residence.

As soon as he returned, he closed the door tightly, came to the bedroom, and took out the 【Dragon Elephant Scripture】.

Although this martial art was only an incomplete piece, he had the help of the panel and could refresh the proficiency, so it might not be impossible to practice it successfully.

Opening the pages, he saw that this cultivation method was divided into 13 layers in total.

The first four layers can cultivate 【Dragon Elephant Battle Body】. Once channeled, the physical strength will instantly increase by eight times, with infinite divine power, shaking mountains and pulling mountains.

The middle four layers can cultivate 【Diamond Indestructible】. Once successful, it can be immune to most blood energy attacks, divine power attacks, and spiritual power attacks in the world, and the physical body is almost immortal.

The last five layers point directly to 【Fleshly Sanctification】.

Once practiced successfully, the body will derive strange phenomena and appear in all kinds of incredible expressions.

It can definitely be counted as a peerless strange skill.

But the pity is that this incomplete piece only has the first four layers.

"Good thing, even if it's just an incomplete piece, it's enough to compare to a high-grade martial art..."

Fang Yi's eyes flashed.

He immediately began to channel according to the method recorded in the book. Little rays of golden light soon emerged on his body surface, like sacred glaze.

Even the blood in his body was driven by a mysterious force, making a series of low roaring sounds.

Time passed bit by bit.

The entire supply point was not peaceful at all.

That group of 【Seeking God Path】 people were pulling martial arts experts everywhere, forming no small restlessness in this area.

For several consecutive days, many martial arts experts from nearby had been pulled over, causing countless people to discuss.

Besides that, it was outside the town, where five-colored light soared into the sky for three consecutive days, containing spiritual rhyme and filled with mysterious energy.

Of course, a small episode also happened during this period.

That was that the people of the Siping Gang were looking for Fang Yi everywhere these days.

But it was not for revenge, but for an apology.

The Siping Gang leader, thinking of Hall Master Xiong being casually waved away and dying under his own famous unique skill, couldn't sleep or eat for several days, fearing that the opponent would kill into the Siping Gang and implicate him, the gang leader.

Therefore, for several days, the Siping Gang leader wanted to find Fang Yi and apologize in person.

It's just a pity that Fang Yi had evaporated like a vapor since he appeared that day, and there was no trace.

Four days later.

Fang Yi finally successfully introduced the 【Dragon Elephant Scripture】. Once the cultivation method was channeled, the physical body was like a wild dragon, the body surface turned golden, the whole body was strong and powerful, the blood roared, and the whole body contained endless strength.

More importantly, even the poison in his body had changed again.

After the 'Gold Poison' successfully reached perfection, a fourth type of poison finally derived in his body, 【Water Attribute Poison】.

Water, master of cold.

Contains corrosiveness and trickiness.

Water poison is also known as cold poison or yin poison.

Once hit, it can make the opponent instantly cold like a corpse, blood coagulating, internal organs coagulating, flesh and blood coagulating, instantly turning into an ice sculpture from the inside out.

When water poison and fire poison are intertwined, it can erupt with seven or eight times the power of ordinary ones.

As the saying goes, 【Ice and Fire Nine Heavens】, is exactly this.

"After consolidating the realm, I can try to break through to the third layer of Tendon Changing."

Fang Yi looked at his palm, his eyes flashing.

Suddenly, he stood up and came outside.

Several days passed, and there were indeed more news in the supply point.

The streets and alleys were full of discussions.

All related to the opportunity.

"Brother Ouyang, how have you considered it?"

Suddenly, a happy laugh came from behind Fang Yi.

Fang Yi looked back.

He saw Jiang Wushang with bright eyes appearing behind him, with a smile on his face, as if he were waiting specifically for him.

Behind him were two other figures, both middle-aged faces, with deep blood energy, fine breathing, and very clear large tendons on the back of their palms. One look and one knew they were martial arts experts.

"It's okay, but you have to add money!"

Fang Yi said.

"Easy to say, what do you want to add?"

Jiang Wushang laughed.

"Besides that high-grade martial art, I want the introductory method on the 'seeking immortality path'."

Fang Yi stated his idea.

He had a panel, if he didn't try, he wouldn't be reconciled in his heart at all.

"You still want to try?"

Jiang Wushang was surprised.

The two people behind him changed their expressions even more, sizing up Fang Yi deeply.

What virtue and ability does the opponent have to make Jiang Wushang value him so much?

And dare to open his mouth wide to propose the method of the 'seeking immortality path'?

Even if it were them, they didn't have this treatment.

"Not bad, I always feel that my talent is extraordinary, perhaps buried."

Fang Yi said shamelessly.

"Alright, if you insist on trying, I have no choice, I promise you, but it must be after the matter is done. Don't worry, whether you get that thing or not, I will never break my promise."

Jiang Wushang was very straightforward, throwing the token of the Poison Martial Lineage over first, which was considered a meeting gift.

Fang Yi caught the token and put it into his arms.

"This place is not a place to talk, go back to my residence first. Recently, I have secretly inquired about a lot of news, which is of great use to you."

Jiang Wushang greeted a few people and turned to leave.

The three didn't say a word and followed Jiang Wushang.

During this period, the two middle-aged men were repeatedly sizing up Fang Yi, wanting to speak but stopping several times.

In the spacious courtyard.

Jiang Wushang closed the courtyard door and casually cast a few magic spells to avoid being overheard by others.

"The matter has been confirmed. This supply point has indeed appeared experts on the 【path of transforming into monsters】. In addition, several descendants of 【Evil Martial Arts】 have also been invited. The competition pressure is exceptionally huge."

Jiang Wushang's tone tightened slightly.

"Tell me specifically."

Fang Yi said.

"The person on the path of transforming into monsters, I only know his name is Zhao Wuji. He has changed his monster bones twice, and his body is accompanied by two monster souls, tiger and bear. His physical strength is heaven-shaking and earth-shattering, unimaginable. Just comparing physical bodies, none of you will be his opponent. Remember! You must not confront him head-on!"

Jiang Wushang said in a low voice:

"As for those few descendants of Evil Martial Arts, they walk three different paths, which are the Desire Path, Blood Path, and Weapon Path in the Evil Martial Arts path!"

"Desire Path, seizing others' cultivation through dual cultivation, capable of manipulating others' emotions, making people fall into madness. More importantly, this path is extremely strange.

They can make people sink into the sea of desire, unable to extricate themselves. Often they don't need to strike; one look can make a man's original yang leak out and a woman's original yin not guarded, collapsing and dying on the spot. For a long time, people on this path have rarely appeared, which can be called a disaster for the country and the people."

"Blood Path, as the name suggests, can absorb the essence and blood of all things, turning the essence and blood of all things into their own use, similar to the Blood-Sucking Great Method. The more essence and blood absorbed, the stronger the strength. But those who practice this skill are mostly cruel and brutal, and their minds are extremely easy to go mad, bloodthirsty and fond of killing!"

"Weapon Path, on the other hand, mainly cultivates melting weapons to refine the body. They melt divine weapons and sharp blades into themselves, making their bodies obtain the characteristics of weapons, finally reaching the realm where the body is the weapon and the weapon is the body. The opponent's physical body will not be much weaker than Zhao Wuji's. After encountering this person, you must be careful!"

He said all the news he inquired about in one breath.

Fang Yi listened with a surging heart and surging waves.

Evil Martial Arts path, even more than he imagined.

This kind of path seems to have a very broad future.

"When will it start?"

Fang Yi inquired.

"If there are no accidents, it should be at noon tomorrow. By then, I will enter with you, but my spiritual power will be suppressed and I won't be able to exert much strength. I can only rely on you."

Jiang Wushang said, looking at the two middle-aged men, and said, "By the way, let me introduce you. This is Ouyang Feng. After entering the opportunity land, you must all cooperate with him."

"Ouyang Feng?"

The two middle-aged men frowned.

They had heard this name, which had spread widely among that group of refugees some time ago. It is said that he had done great things in Qingyang City.

"Easy to say, but I don't know what Mr. Ouyang's methods are?"

One of the middle-aged men stared at Fang Yi, his eyes shining brightly.

Boom!

Suddenly, Fang Yi's fascia trembled, making a roaring sound, like a deep-sea flood dragon's chant, the sound buzzing and deafening, making the surrounding airflow surge.

Just once, the two middle-aged men both changed their expressions.

"Flood Dragon Tendon!"

"Good strength, admire you, admire you!"

The two had just reached the peak of Elephant Tendon, and were still a long way from Flood Dragon Tendon.

This time, they were also invited by Jiang Wushang at the cost of a Tendon Changing Pill.
