Chapter 2579 The Desolation of Inheritance

"unlucky!"

The rigid mounts ran tirelessly like machines.

Hong Ku, who was hanging on the horse's belly by his hair, finally climbed onto the horse and rode with Zhang Xuezhou.

He couldn't help but spit and curse. It was obvious that Hong Ku was quite dissatisfied with his trip to Huainan.

"Why are you so unlucky? Were you beaten or hit?" Zhang Xuezhou asked:
"Are you happy after hearing about being beaten and hit?" Hong Ku replied.

"I said that our sorcerers are not suitable for showing up in public, so you shouldn't be so high-profile," said Zhang Xuezhou.

“I’m very low-key!”

Hong Ku replied to Zhang Xuezhou with great dissatisfaction.

He didn't want to bother with Zhang Xuezhou at first. After all, it was thanks to Zhang Xuezhou that he was able to come to Huainan to verify whether the monks in Huainan practiced the Nanming Fire.

Before he could find out about the Nanming Fire, Hong Ku discovered that the Huainan Kingdom had created a bunch of incredible things.

This group of people can not only turn water into flesh, but also turn stone into gold. The falling of the long star in Huainan also brought about opportunities for endless changes.

Due to various reasons, Hong Ku stayed in Shouchun City a little longer, and his yang soul incarnation was defeated by two swords from King Huainan.

Although he is a respected person in a holy land, Hong Ku's current strength is not enough to cope with the pursuit of Tian You and others.

Not much different from Zhang Xuezhou, Hong Ku was flexible and did not hesitate at all when it came to buying his life.

"Why did you come to Huainan?" Hong frowned and asked, "Did you follow me as soon as I left Chang'an City?"

"Look at what you said, teacher. Am I that kind of person?" Zhang Xuezhou shook his head and said, "I heard that a group of fellow villagers were arrested by the Huainan Palace, so I came to take a look!"

"Then you are too fast!" Hong said bitterly.

"Thanks to the generosity of the two venerables, Bai Gu and Hei Shan, I got a pair of black and white horses. My cousin and I rode here at a pretty good speed." Zhang Xuezhou shook his head and said, "Even if you run a day earlier, the time we spend riding to Huainan will be about the same as yours."

"You little thing disguised yourself as me and preached to deceive Lingbao. Baigu and Heishan have asked me about those two mounts many times over the years, and it makes me feel embarrassed every time," Hong complained bitterly.

"Then you are lucky that I blocked the bullet for you, otherwise you would have been killed by the Nine Wind Demon King long ago," said Zhang Xuezhou.

It was one situation when Zhang Xuezhou and Hong Ku were communicating in Chang'an City, and it was another situation when they encountered risks in the wild.

Zhang Xuezhou knew very well that Hong Ku had suffered a great loss this time and might want to use the black and white horses to escape disaster.

Zhang Xuezhou was worried that it would take a long time for so many people to ride on horseback to Chang'an City, and the risks along the way would also be high.

Without official documents from the court, it would be difficult for Rong Tianding to drive his mount on the road smoothly, nor could he take the official road. The mortality rate of these rigid mounts was very high in the short term, and they might all die halfway. The journey also involved the eating and resting of many middle-aged and elderly women.

Zhang Xuezhou will definitely return to Chang'an City before returning to the real world to avoid becoming a burden to the team.

Due to various factors, Hong Ku was planning to take away Zhang Xuezhou's baby, and Zhang Xuezhou was also planning to ask Hong Ku for help, so as to avoid it being too difficult for Rong Tianding to lead the team alone.

"Where are your black and white horses?" Hong Ku asked.

"It's a long way to get to Huainan, and it will disperse after use." Zhang Xuezhou waved his hand and said, "I can only practice it again after returning to Chang'an City!"

"Oh!"

Hong Ku replied disappointedly.

Although the black and white horses are spiritual treasures used by the two venerables Bai Gu and Heishan for many years, Hong Ku really doesn't know the ins and outs of this spiritual weapon.

Zhang Xuezhou made up a few random words, and Hong Ku did not doubt it. After all, Zhang Xuezhou did not hide the treasure, but would be able to refine it into shape again after returning to Chang'an City.

"That horse is pretty fast," Hong said bitterly. "Of course not," Zhang Xuezhou said excitedly, "If we don't compare it with Feizong, the black and white horses are the best way to travel in the world!"

"It may not be the best in the world," Hong Ku said, "There are always people who are better than you, and there must be treasures that are better than the black and white horses!"

"Anyway, I haven't seen anything better than the black and white horses," Zhang Xuezhou waved his hand and said, "These two horses can be ridden back and forth. They can travel a thousand miles a day and eight hundred miles at night. In a day, they can travel two thousand miles, and the journey won't be delayed even at night!"

"You said two hundred miles too much," Hong said bitterly.

"Don't worry about such details!"

Seeing that Hong Ku was in high spirits, Zhang Xuezhou felt that there was a high probability that Hong Ku would ask for treasure.

In the past, Hong Ku might have been afraid that the two venerables, Bai Gu and Heishan, might have kept some tricks on the treasures, but Zhang Xuezhou had been using the black and white horses for so many years without any harm.

If you think about the matter, your guard will be let down.

Hong Ku with a horse and Hong Ku without a horse are obviously two different things. Zhang Xuezhou can run around with this set of spiritual weapons, and Hong Ku will definitely be more powerful after getting it.

But how to exchange with Zhang Xuezhou gave Hong a headache. After all, the treasure could not be used just by snatching it away. A spiritual weapon without a spell was just a tribute that could only be looked at but not used.

Zhang Xuezhou spoke excitedly, while Hong Ku was full of thoughts.

"Done. I led Tian You to another road. From now on, just follow the direction I pointed. We won't run into each other along the way!"

When the two of them were thinking about their own things, they heard Jinchang's voice coming from behind.

Under the sunlight, Jinchang poked his head out from the shadow of his mount.

After briefly describing the consequences of the incident, he pointed at Zhang Xuezhou and then at Hong Ku.

"I'm here to get my reward!"

Jinchang thought about it for three seconds, and finally asked Hongku first.

Although the Yin-Yang Great Compassion Nine Heavens Mantra is what Jinchang needs, Jinchang is really afraid that Hong Ku will run away. After all, Hong Ku is not as easy to find as Zhang Xuezhou.

"I want the technique you mentioned that allows me to hide and fly," Jinchang said.

"Your technique can hide and run in shadows, which is already better than ours," Hong advised bitterly, "Practicing this technique more will not bring you any benefits, and it will delay your practice time!"

"You are not my senior brother, why do you care about me?"

Jinchang replied unhappily.

As Hong Ku said, the technique Hong Ku demonstrated overlaps with Jin Chang's shadow-following technique, but Hong Ku does not understand what this means for Jin Chang.

The emergence of this Taoist magic not only troubled the Han Dynasty court and the Huainan Palace, but also posed a huge challenge to the Nine Sects of Yin and Yang.

If it is said that the Mohist mechanical technique and the Yin-Yang school puppet technique each have their own merits, then the Yang Soul Shapeshifting Technique is like rubbing the Shadow-Following Technique on the ground.

The Nine-Man Sect is the Yin-Yang School's faction responsible for killing. When the most advantageous techniques can be replaced by other schools, there is no need for this school to survive.

Moreover, Jinchang was well aware of the hardships he had endured when he practiced the Nine-Person Teaching Technique. He saw that Hongku and others could achieve the desired level of practice in just a few years, and even practiced on a larger scale. This meant that the threshold for practice was much lower than that of the Shadow-Following Technique.

It's not without reason that Zhang Xuezhou's Shadow-following Technique is so bad. This technique requires both talent and years of hard practice. It's not something that can be achieved overnight and at a high level.

If there is any technique that can possess the advantages of the Shadow-Following Technique and can be practiced quickly and smoothly, it means that the Yin-Yang school is out of date.

Jinchang was not very interested in practicing, but he could not bear the fact that the Yin-Yang family's inheritance would be discontinued in the future.

Either the Nine People Sect will be eliminated in the future, or it will seek integration as much as possible to create a way out for itself and the subsequent inheritance of the Yin-Yang Family.

No matter what Hong Ku said, Jinchang would choose to practice, and even put this practice before the integration of Yin and Yang realms.
