After returning to the village, start chasing the mountain from binding Emei

Chapter 1030 A Warning in a Dream: A Surprise Attack from the Greyhound!

secret?

Chen Yang looked at him calmly, "What secrets could you possibly have in front of me?"

"I……"

Tian Bonong was speechless. Under the power of the pupil technique, what secrets could there be?

"You probably don't know, Senior Bashe, but I wanted to refine you into a 'Changgui' (a type of ghost in Chinese mythology). You should know what a 'Changgui' is, right? It's someone who loses their self-awareness and is driven by others for all eternity..."

"That's fine. You like to enslave others, so let you taste what it's like to be enslaved."

……

Chen Yang recounted all of this with a joking tone.

"Do not."

Tian Bonong shook his head repeatedly, saying he would rather die than serve as a henchman for the Bashe.

He also wanted to beg Chen Yang to try and get his help.

But Chen Yang didn't waste any words with him and directly used his pupil technique on him.

After being hypnotized, Tian Bonong quickly confessed.

It is indeed related to the elixir "Heavenly Tribulation Pill" refined by Danyangzi.

As far as Tian Bonong knew, it was true that the Heavenly Tribulation Pill could help people cultivate a pseudo-heavenly path, but this was conditional.

No matter how powerful the Heavenly Tribulation Pill is, it is still just a pill and can only be used as an auxiliary medicine.

To cultivate the Heavenly Path and attain pseudo-immortality, one actually needs a specific cultivation technique.

A martial art originating from the Pingtian Sect.

Tian Bonong didn't know the name of the cultivation technique; he had only heard Danyangzi mention it before.

But Danyangzi was evasive, and when he talked to him about this matter, he only scratched the surface, so Tian Bonong knew only a limited amount of information.

……

Chen Yang's eyes flickered slightly after hearing Tian Bonong's explanation.

Is there really such a trick to it?
Tian Bonong knew absolutely nothing about the cultivation method.

After thinking about it carefully, Chen Yang concluded that the possibility was quite high.

He had found it strange before: how could a single pill, which only provides immense medicinal power, allow someone to cultivate a pseudo-heavenly path?

Chen Yang was completely unfamiliar with the Heavenly Path. Give him a Heavenly Tribulation Pill, take a nap, and when he wakes up, the Heavenly Path will be complete, and he will have attained the pseudo-immortal realm.
That's not very realistic.

Most of the time, you need to have some kind of cultivation technique to help you.

Moreover, it's a martial arts technique originating from the Pingtian Sect?
How did this get involved with the Peace Heaven Sect again?
Chen Yang frowned slightly, then relaxed.

"According to Danyangzi, although this method leads to the attainment of a pseudo-immortal, the resulting status is already above the Dao True Realm. It can completely crush Dao True Realm cultivators. Moreover, if the Heavenly Gate were to reopen and the Heavenly Path to Heaven were to resume sooner, even a pseudo-immortal could become a true immortal, able to preempt everyone else and attain the true Heavenly Human Realm..."

Tian Bonong recounted everything he knew in detail, but unfortunately, he was not a member of the Pingtian Sect and did not even know the name of the cultivation technique, let alone its contents.

Chen Yang listened with interest, but not a great deal of interest.

Although he had already obtained the immortal pill refined by Danyangzi, he was only at the initial stage of the Dao True Realm, and it was still a long way from reaching the late stage of the Dao True Realm where there was no way to go.

For him, attaining the status of a pseudo-immortal was not something he urgently needed.

Moreover, who knows, one day the Heavenly Gate might reopen and the Heavenly Road might be re-established. At that time, would there still be any need to cultivate that pseudo-immortal cultivation?

Wouldn't it be better to just use a Heavenly Tribulation Pill to break through to the Celestial Realm?
……

It's hard to say what will happen in the future. Unless there's no hope of reaching the Celestial Realm, it's not too late to talk about this matter again.

As for the martial arts technique that Tian Bonong mentioned...

Danyangzi's body is still in Chen Yang's hands. Once we get out, we can find the Eight-Winged Centipede to deal with it. Wouldn't that give us whatever we want?

At the very least, that scoundrel Shi Xiang Sheng is still inside the round mirror.

……

-

The next day.

The sky was clear and the air was fresh. Yuanlong and his group would rest at Dong'e Mountain for the time being, and then set off back to Zhong'e Mountain after everyone had recovered.

Time waits for no one, and there wasn't much time left. Chen Yang didn't have time to linger here. He left a batch of spirit grains for Yuan Long and the others, then bid farewell to everyone and left Dong'e Mountain.

As for Tian Bonong, according to the agreement with Bashe, Chen Yang handed him over to Bashe for disposal when he left.

Chen Yang had no say in what the outcome would be.

But I imagine it must be pretty bad.

……

-

Above the blue sky.

Chen Yang rode the Thunderfire Eagle, weaving through the clouds, heading towards the outside of Nan'e Mountain.

After breaking through to the Dao True Realm, Chen Yang went through several battles and became bolder. Unlike when he first came in, he didn't even dare to fly, for fear of being targeted by some powerful being.

Now, with my high skill level and daring, I can fly whenever I want, regardless of any restricted areas. Whoever dares to mess with me, I'll mess with them.

In the clouds, Chen Yang was playing with Xiao Ling's jade bracelet.

The space inside collapsed, and he took out what he wanted. The remaining items could not be taken out without a blood oath, nor was there any need to take them out.

It wasn't very appealing to him; it was rather of little use.

If you bind someone with your blood, your dreams might come true.

Of course, he could throw the bracelet further away and let the blood drip, but it wouldn't make any difference.

What use is a broken bracelet?

With the space inside collapsed like that, it could explode at any moment, even if it's not dripping blood.

This thing is a ticking time bomb.

"Let's go."

After only a slight hesitation, Chen Yang simply threw it away.

The bracelet traced an arc in the air before falling from the clouds.

"Chirp!"

The Thunderfire Eagle let out a high-pitched cry, soared down from the clouds, crossed the towering Nan'e Mountain, and headed straight for Dragon Tooth Mountain.

……

In less than half an hour, Chen Yang arrived at Longya Mountain.

Instead of landing immediately, he had the Thunderfire Eagle fly around Dragon Tooth Mountain a few times to conduct a comprehensive survey.

However, there is no use for eggs.

The restrictions in this mountain are very strong. Even the Thunderfire Eagle dares not get too close. Once it enters the range of the restrictions, its cultivation will be restricted, and even its physical cultivation will be greatly limited. The Thunderfire Eagle will find it extremely difficult to fly.

Within this restricted area, both the primordial spirit and the radar were severely interfered with, making it impossible to detect or image them.

Especially the radar; the image was full of static.

What exactly is inside?
In the woods not far away, on a slightly higher slope, Chen Yang jumped off the Thunderfire Eagle, then put it away and summoned Mo Yuan.

After consuming a useless pill, this old rat's cultivation level clearly improved significantly.

The distance between his realm and the late stage of the Creation Realm is just a hair's breadth away.

"How to say?"

Chen Yang rested on the spot, not in a hurry, and had lunch first.

He asked Mo Yuan for his opinion.

Mo Yuan is an expert in treasure hunting. Its eyes should be able to see things that even the Heavenly Eye cannot see. It might be able to sense whether there is treasure in this mountain.

Chen Yang used his Heavenly Eye to look at it, but he didn't find anything unusual.

Mo Yuan stared at Dragon Tooth Mountain for a while, then went into the cave dug at the foot of the mountain by itself.

After a long time, they finally emerged from the cave.

Approaching Chen Yang, Mo Yuan said, "I can't tell what it is, but there's definitely something extraordinary inside. Also, I smelled a faint stench of blood in the cave. I don't know if it was left by those people before, or if it was already there. If it's coming from inside the cave, then I think there might be some kind of evil spirit inside..."

Evil!

This big black rat itself is an evil spirit; if it can be called an evil spirit, then it must be something extraordinary.

Mo Yuan leaned closer to Chen Yang and continued, "Master, if there are any evil spirits inside, the fact that such a powerful law-based restriction can be used to suppress them means they can't be that weak..."

Its implication was clearly that Chen Yang should think twice. He might think that the cave dwelling of a powerful expert in the Celestial Realm might be inside, offering opportunities, but it could also be a dangerous place.

If you barge in without understanding the situation, you might be courting death.

Even if you are highly skilled, daring, and have many tricks up your sleeve, it doesn't mean you're invincible.

After listening, Chen Yang fell into deep thought.

Even Tian Bonong, one of the parties involved, didn't know what the thing in the mountain was, so Chen Yang certainly couldn't get any more detailed information either.

The cave at the foot of Dragon Tooth Mountain is almost ready to be dug open. He will send a batch of bone-eating beetles over to make it open in no time.

But after Mo Yuan investigated, he said something like this, and last night Yuan Long and the others also suspected that there might be some kind of evil spirit inside.

He came all excited, only to find a landmine after digging for ages—that would be hilarious.

After weighing the options, Chen Yang decided that retreating directly would not result in any direct loss to him, but he might miss a certain opportunity. However, if he chose to break the seal, he might suffer a terrible disaster.

The key issue is that the restrictions in those mountains confine one's cultivation. If danger were to strike, it's hard to say how much power one would have to resist.

For a moment, Chen Yang couldn't make a decision.

If only there were also fortune sticks, one could easily predict good or bad fortune on the spot.

If it's auspicious, proceed; if it's inauspicious, retreat.

Some things are only truly valued when you actually use them.

The previous upgrade gift pack included a [Spiritual Sign] option, but Chen Yang chose something else instead.

Now it's a bit too late to regret it.

However, even if he were given the choice again, he would probably make the same decision.

After all, his choice is naturally to choose what he urgently needs right now.

While pondering, a thought suddenly flashed through Chen Yang's mind.

He found a spot in the woods and took out the stone bed and stone pillow he had obtained from Ye Huai'an's residence.

Mo Yuan looked completely bewildered.

"Keep watch over him, I'm going to take a nap." After giving the order, Chen Yang climbed onto the bed and rested his head on the stone pillow.

At this point, Mo Yuan understood that Chen Yang probably wanted to test whether there were any good or bad omens in his dream.

But do these stone beds and pillows really have an early warning function?
Could Chen Yang's dream last time have been just a coincidence?
Mo Yuan muttered to himself, circling the stone bed a few times, but found it to be ordinary, with nothing particularly special about it.

I decided to ignore it and found a comfortable spot to take a nap.

A man and a mouse, their snores rising softly.

Chen Yang slept like a log, feeling incredibly tired as soon as he lay down, and fell asleep almost the moment his head hit the pillow.

I slept for the whole afternoon.

Mo Yuan woke up a few times, but seeing that Chen Yang was still sleeping, it didn't dare to disturb him, so it could only sleep as well.

……

Dusk falls.

When Mo Yuan woke up again, he turned his head and looked at the stone bed. Chen Yang was still lying on it.

It's been so long, why aren't you awake yet?

This is probably not normal.

Mo Yuan hesitated for a moment, then leaped onto the stone bed.

"Owner!"

It squeaked twice and patted Chen Yang's face with its paw.

Chen Yang suddenly opened his eyes, and his gaze instantly met Mo Yuan's.

Mo Yuan was startled and instinctively took two steps back.

Chen Yang sat up from the stone bed.

"How long have I been sleeping?"

Looking at the twilight around him, Chen Yang felt a little lost.

Mo Yuan quickly replied, "I've been sleeping all afternoon, from noon until now."

All afternoon!

Chen Yang shook his head, feeling clearer than ever before.

He did wake up occasionally, but he wasn't dreaming. Coupled with the fatigue from days of travel, he was indeed tired, so he went back to sleep.

But unexpectedly, he slept for the entire afternoon.

I slept really well.

Mo Yuan quickly asked, "How was it? Did you have a dream? Was there any warning?"

Chen Yang sat on the edge of the stone bed, thought carefully for a moment, and shook his head. "No."

The dream I had last time felt so real, like I had experienced it myself. It was completely different from any of my previous dreams.

But this time, I slept like I never had before, without a single trace of a dream.

He looked back at the stone bed and stone pillow.

Perhaps I was overthinking it; the stone bed and stone pillow really were just ordinary, nothing special.

The reason I had that dream last time was actually just a warning sign that I received after unexpectedly triggering a breakthrough in the Dao True Realm.

Mo Yuan said, "No dreaming, no warning signs, could it mean that there's nothing dangerous at the foot of Dragon Tooth Mountain, and we can go in without worry?"

Chen Yang was slightly taken aback upon hearing this.

Is this another way of explaining it?
That does seem to make some sense.

Seeing that Chen Yang remained silent, Mo Yuan said, "It's getting dark, Master. What should we do next? Stay or leave?"

Just as Chen Yang was about to say something, the hairs on his body inexplicably stood on end.

A gust of wind came, and a chill ran down my back.

The trees in the woods swayed back and forth in a strange wind.

Mo Yuan was facing Chen Yang when he saw what was behind him. His eyes immediately showed a look of terror, his hair stood on end, and his back arched as if he were on guard.

There's someone behind them.

Chen Yang felt as if a huge mountain was pressing down on him, making him feel exhausted and suffocated.

Look back.

An old Taoist priest, riding a giant, snow-white tiger, appeared behind him without him noticing.

Canggou?

Chen Yang shuddered and instantly stood up.

"Roar!"

Just then, the white tiger roared, and a powerful burst of divine evil essence shot out from its mouth like an energy cannon, heading straight for Chen Yang.

We were completely unprepared.

Chen Yang hurriedly activated his Golden Body technique, opening the Demon-Subduing Umbrella in front of him.

"boom!"

The Divine Fiend True Essence struck the Demon-Subduing Umbrella, exploding with a deafening roar. The terrifying force sent Chen Yang flying backward.

Mo Yuan was completely unable to participate in this level of combat at the moment, and hurriedly hid to the side, almost getting caught in the blast.

When Canggou Daoren saw the Demon-Subduing Umbrella in Chen Yang's hand, a venomous glint flashed in his sinister eyes.

"You brat, you deserve to die!"

Canggou Daoren snorted coldly.

The next second, the forest, which had been shrouded in twilight, suddenly lit up.

Sword Domain!

A terrifying aura locked onto Chen Yang.

The feeling was like an ordinary person having countless guns pointed at their head.

It's over.

Chen Yang never expected to encounter Cang Gou Dao Ren here.

In the past, he relied on sneak attacks and tricks to deal with people like Danyangzi. But now, he was the one being attacked, and he didn't have time to prepare many of his methods. He was caught completely off guard.

At this moment, it would be too late to feed the water monkey a Dao True Pill.

A White Tiger Divine Fiend at the late stage of the Dao True Realm, and a Cang Gou Daoist whose strength is no less than that of a powerful one.

In a direct confrontation, he would have a hard time dealing with even one, let alone two!
"Squeak!"

Mo Yuan let out a strange cry from the side and, leaning against the Wuxiang Bracelet, quickly simulated his aura.

A powerful aura suddenly erupted.

The aura of the late-stage peak of the Dao Realm.

It was trying to intimidate the man and the beast in front of it.

However, Canggou Daoren merely glanced at it strangely, his eyes seemingly able to see through illusions, and threw a punch, the force of which headed straight for Mo Yuan.

"Shh!"

Mo Yuan originally wanted to rely on his sword intent cultivation to contend with him, but due to the huge difference in their realms, he had no chance to react at all.

As the fist whistled past, Mo Yuan's body was instantly sent flying, arcing through the air before crashing to an unknown location.

"what?"

Upon seeing this, Chen Yang's expression changed drastically.

"Roar!"

At that moment, a gust of wind rushed towards Chen Yang.

It was that white tiger demon.

Without giving Chen Yang any time to react, it slapped him with its claw.

Chen Yang used the Demon-Subduing Umbrella to block it again.

"Oh!"

The terrifying force sent him flying once again.

The physical strength of a powerful being like the White Tiger, who is at the late stage of the Dao Realm, is terrifying beyond imagination.

Although he killed White Fox and Xiao Ling, it was all through opportunism, not through genuine direct confrontation.

Now that he has truly faced such an existence and been caught off guard, Chen Yang has come to deeply realize the terrifying gap between the two.

The power of a single claw is probably greater than that of a hundred dragons.

The Demon-Subduing Umbrella absorbed some of the force, but the impact on Chen Yang was still considerable, sending him flying over a hundred meters before he crashed into the mountainside of Dragon Tooth Mountain and finally came to a stop.

"puff!"

He spat out a mouthful of blood, feeling as if his internal organs were shattered.

Seeing the white tiger rapidly approaching, Chen Yang dared not be negligent and hurriedly took out a Dao Zhen Pill and swallowed it, followed by a Qi Ling Pill.

The current situation leaves no room for further thought. In this rush, many tactics cannot be employed, leaving only a head-on confrontation.

The combination of Daozhen Pill and Qiling Pill could raise his cultivation to the late stage of Daozhen Realm, allowing him to unleash the Golden Body Dharma Form and perhaps put him in a fighting position.

Even if we're outmatched, escaping shouldn't be a problem, right?

The idea is indeed good.

However, there is a problem: even if you take a magic pill, it won't take effect immediately after swallowing it; even a short time is still time.

In such a battle, even a moment is enough to take your life.

Just moments after he swallowed the medicine, the white tiger pounced again, its white fur now red, clearly enraged and even more powerful.

Chen Yang's mind raced.

He hurriedly took out the Dragon Fang Sword and activated it abruptly.

"Shh!"

A sword light slashed directly towards the red-haired tiger.

It's uncertain whether this sword strike will be effective, but at least it will buy him some time.

Without saying a word, Chen Yang ran straight towards the cave entrance at the foot of Dragon Tooth Mountain.

At that moment, he had only one thought: there was a restriction in the cave that could limit his cultivation.
