Chapter 203 Little Gray's Wisdom

Inside the Heavenly Emperor's Treasury, as the golden light dissipated, the ten large golden characters also disappeared.

After a while, Zhang Xiaofan finally came to his senses, looked down at the small stone in his hand that had lost its light and become transparent, and a glint seemed to flash in his eyes.

"I never imagined that the third volume of the Heavenly Book would be here!"

Lu Xueqi said softly, a strange light flashing in her eyes.

The Heavenly Book is said to be the source of all the Taoist arts of the Demonic Sect and a classic text of the Demonic Sect. However, its appearance here makes Lu Xueqi wonder if the Demonic Sect and the builder of this Heavenly Emperor's Treasury may be connected.

"Perhaps it was the builder of this place who passed down the heavenly book."

Zhang Xiaofan said softly, "The appearance of Nuwa almost certainly confirms that the Netherworld Holy Mother worshipped by the Demonic Sect is Nuwa herself."

However, Zhang Xiaofan was still unable to ascertain the identity of that Heavenly Fiend King.

According to the Demonic Sect, the Heavenly Fiend King is the god who created heaven and earth and is in charge of punishment. There was only one great god who created heaven and earth, Pangu. As for the responsibility of punishment, it was the duty of the Heavenly Emperor, who was one of the Three Sovereigns in the past.

As for the Heavenly Book of the Demonic Sect, it is very likely that it is the Taoist teachings passed down by the Goddess Nuwa in the past, because the scriptures in the Heavenly Book record the essence, energy, spirit, and the two energies of Yin and Yang.

The combination of these five elements may hold the secret to the creation of life!
However, there was one thing Zhang Xiaofan didn't quite understand: since the Demonic Sect, or rather, the original cultivation method of the human race, was passed down by the Goddess Nuwa, why would the Demonic Sect worship the statue of the Heavenly Fiend King, who seemed to be related to the Heavenly Emperor?

It's important to know that Nuwa and the Heavenly Emperor had an exceptionally bad relationship; they would never give each other a friendly look when they met. In private, the Longyuan tribe and the Seven Fiend Swords of Longyuan were protected by Nuwa.

Shaking his head, Zhang Xiaofan didn't think about it anymore. Perhaps he could guess it later when he got more clues.

After clearing his mind of all distractions, Zhang Xiaofan looked down at the spiritual medicine in the wooden cup. Lu Xueqi, seeing this, asked curiously.

"Xiao Fan, is this the legendary elixir?"

"Actually, this can't really be considered a spiritual medicine; it's just a bit of the essence of all trees that the Jianmu tree has accumulated over a thousand years!"

Although Zhang Xiaofan's life was guided by the goddess Nuwa's technique to transform the spirit of the phoenix into a zither and become an immortal, the zither was originally chopped by the fire god Zhurong from a phoenix tree, so it is naturally possible to see that.

This substance is essentially the sap that seeps out of a tree. However, since the Jianmu tree is a tree that supports the sky, its sap essence possesses immense life force, making it an unparalleled spiritual medicine for spirit beasts.

This is how the Blackwater Serpent survived a thousand years ago.

As he spoke, Zhang Xiaofan took out an exquisite jade bottle from his sleeve, poured out a few pills, and prepared to take out the spiritual herbs inside.

If it were just Little Gray, the mischievous monkey could have drunk it all, but now that there are other spirit beasts, we can't let the monkey eat it all by himself.

Therefore, Zhang Xiaofan had no choice but to take the elixir with him first, and then go back to see how to deal with it and how to divide it.

Moreover, Zhang Xiaofan also wants to take that stone back and study it carefully. That thing is very unusual and definitely has an extraordinary origin.

Seeing Zhang Xiaofan put the elixir into the jade bottle, Little Gray couldn't help but squeak and struggle with its small body. Seeing this, Lu Xueqi let go.

After landing, Little Gray ran straight to Zhang Xiaofan's feet, climbed onto his shoulder in a few quick movements, and then looked at the wooden cup.

At this moment, only a thin layer of the elixir remained in the wooden cup. Seeing this, Little Gray panicked and jumped onto the wooden platform. "You little rascal!"

Zhang Xiaofan lightly touched the small gray object, and seeing that the jade bottle was almost full, he put it away and said with a smile.

"Alright, these are yours."

Little Gray looked at the little bit of elixir left in the wooden cup and reached out to pick it up and drink it.

But the wooden cup, the wooden platform, and the wooden frame beneath its feet are all connected together; how could Little Gray possibly lift them up?

Seeing that he couldn't get it working, Xiao Hui scratched his head anxiously. Just as Zhang Xiaofan was wondering whether he should help Xiao Hui, he saw Xiao Hui put his mouth directly into the wooden cup.

The wooden cup was at least two inches wide, and Xiao Hui was so small that he managed to put most of his head inside.

Before long, Little Grey had licked the medicinal herbs out of the wooden cup clean, making Zhang Xiaofan laugh.

"Tsk tsk!"

After drinking the elixir, Little Grey even smacked its lips twice, its face showing a puzzled expression, as if wondering why it couldn't taste anything.
"Let's go, senior sister!"

Zhang Xiaofan said softly, and the two of them arrived at the outside of the Heavenly Emperor's Treasury. There they saw two enormous creatures, the Yellow Bird and the Black Water Serpent, each sticking out their heads and staring at Little Gray in front of them. The Black Water Serpent even flicked its tongue and sniffed lightly, which frightened Little Gray so much that it quickly hid behind Zhang Xiaofan.

Don't be fooled by Xiao Hui's usual boldness. Firstly, because the Spirit Lord has been staying in Qingyun Mountain for a long time, cultivating his mind and body, he doesn't like to move around much and doesn't seem to have any danger.

The Kui Niu that later entered the mountain was brought up by Zhang Xiaofan. He was kind and generous, and with the Spirit Venerable Water Qilin behind him, Xiao Hui was not afraid of the Kui Niu at all and dared to act like a big brother.

But this was the first time Little Grey had ever seen the Blackwater Serpent before him. It was a genuine ancient magical beast, and its fierce aura was incredibly powerful.

In particular, not long ago, the Blackwater Serpent and the Yellow Bird had fought a fierce battle and were full of momentum. Therefore, when the Blackwater Serpent poked its head out and spat its tongue, it scared Little Gray half to death and had no choice but to ask Zhang Xiaofan for help.

After all, Little Grey is no ordinary spirit beast; it's very shrewd. It witnessed firsthand how the Black Water Serpent and the Yellow Bird submitted to Zhang Xiaofan.

Zhang Xiaofan couldn't help but chuckle at Xiao Hui's appearance. This little guy was so greedy that he didn't care about anything, but now he was scared.

However, seeing this, Zhang Xiaofan still took out a jade bottle from his sleeve, gestured to the yellow bird and the black water snake, and spoke up.

"I'll deal with it for you when we get back."

Upon hearing this, the Yellow Bird and the Black Water Serpent did not immediately retreat. Instead, they continued forward, snorted at Little Gray, and then withdrew their enormous beast heads.

Little Grey cautiously peeked out and saw that the Black Water Serpent and the Yellow Bird really didn't dare to argue with it. Its three eyes rolled around, and then it snatched the jade bottle from Zhang Xiaofan's hand, waving it around and squeaking at the two big spirit beasts.

The Blackwater Serpent and the Yellow Bird were stunned for a moment. They looked down at Little Gray, hesitated for a while, and then glanced at Zhang Xiaofan. Seeing that Zhang Xiaofan did not react, they both lowered their heads.

"This little monkey subdued the black snake and the yellow bird?"

Upon seeing this, Lu Xueqi was surprised and exclaimed in surprise.
