Wu Tian was speechless. He really didn't know what kind of business this old ox had done before. Murder, arson, robbery, kidnapping young women, tsk tsk, could this old ox have been a mountain king before?
Could it be that he committed too many evil deeds, which is why he was taken away by the Taoist of Tiandu?
While he was lost in thought, he felt a sense of relief.
With this old ox backing him up, he became much bolder and dared to do many of his ideas.
Wu Tian didn't make an empty promise by using the old ox; he actually carried his wine gourd up to Biluo Tianya, one of the three cliffs in the sect.
This place can nurture the Supreme Clarity Immortal Light, which is the most precious spiritual material in the sect. It is a treasure whether used for cultivation, sword forging, or magic refinement.
Legend has it that the Azure River descended from the sky and landed on the cliff, where it merged with the Qi of the Suspended Sky Peak to form a celestial pool. The water in this pool is a natural nectar, and every once in a while, it will generate the celestial light of the Supreme Purity.
Therefore, even Nascent Soul cultivators within the sect are not allowed to approach this place without authorization.
Once Qingniu reached the foot of the cliff, he stopped going forward. Although he was a demon saint, there were many forbidden areas within the sect that he could not visit.
Wu Tian had long since obtained permission from the sect's founder, and apart from a few cultivators' cave dwellings, he could go anywhere in the sect.
Upon reaching the top of the cliff, the surrounding天地精气 (heaven and earth essence) suddenly changed, transforming into a tangible, clear and ethereal mist. With each breath, one felt mental clarity and spiritual vitality.
He looked up and saw that the cliff top was wide open, as if it had been flattened by an immense force. The smooth, mirror-like ground was neither stone nor jade, but flowed with a warm luster. He could vaguely see dense runes flowing around, echoing the stars in the sky and swallowing the light of the sun, moon and stars.
At the edge of the cliff, the clouds and mist had dispersed, and at the farthest point of vision, a misty celestial river could be seen descending from the endless heights, its beginning and end unknown, as if flowing from the heavens.
But when Wu Tian used his all-seeing eye, he was horrified. This was no river at all; it was clearly formed by the laws of heaven and earth, rolling in without beginning or end. He didn't know whether it was man-made or created by heaven and earth.
Even if a wandering immortal were to fall into this celestial river, he would likely be drowned by the raging torrent.
He carefully cleared his throat and walked to the place where the Heavenly River had fallen not far ahead. The surging torrent and the Qi of the Suspended Peak itself converged, collided and merged, and finally transformed into a fairy pool of no more than an acre in diameter at the top of the cliff.
The pool water was crystal clear, shimmering with iridescent light, as smooth and lustrous as flawless jade. Wisps of clear, ethereal light, like swimming fish, serpents, or mysterious runes, were generated and moved about.
The light was not dazzling, but it carried a pure Daoist charm that penetrated all laws and cleansed away impurities. It was the Taiqing Immortal Light that countless cultivators in the sect yearned for.
They seemed to be alive, frolicking in the fairy pool, sometimes sinking to the bottom, sometimes leaping out of the water, bringing with them drops of jade dew and nectar brimming with vitality.
Wu Tian licked his lips, his mouth watering. Unfortunately, the Taiqing Immortal Light was only suitable for cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage. With his current cultivation level, if he swallowed it rashly, he would be dissolved by the light and his soul would instantly vanish.
He carefully used the gourd to collect a small amount of the jade liquid, but he didn't dare to take more, keeping his limits in mind.
But thinking of the female demon in his cave and the child in her womb, he muttered to himself, "That old Taoist priest bullied my wife and child. It's not too much to ask me to get some jade elixir to nourish her, is it?"
His muttering was by no means unfounded.
There is probably nothing in this Suspended Peak that can be hidden from Daoist Tiandu, let alone in a place as important as Azure Sky Cliff.
Do you really believe the old Taoist priest when he said he went into seclusion?
It's normal to give an ox some benefits when it needs to work.
Otherwise, if I let him try coming here normally, I would have already given him a good beating.
Wu Tian had previously wreaked havoc in the mountains of southern Xinjiang, subduing many demons and monsters and swallowing a great many treasures. Now, he picked out a jade bottle, but after filling it halfway, he felt that the pool of water was as heavy as a thousand pounds, and he could not pour in a single drop.
He couldn't help but mutter, "How stingy..."
But he dared not be greedy anymore, knowing that this was truly a good thing, even the Green Ox, a demon saint, coveted it.
Taking so much at this point is already a stroke of good fortune.
He carefully put away the jade bottle, grabbed the old ox's wine gourd, and hurried down the cliff.
When he reached the foot of the cliff, he saw from a distance that the old ox was anxiously pacing in circles, its hands rubbing together so hard they were almost steaming.
Upon seeing Wu Tian, his eyes widened in surprise. He strode forward and excitedly asked, "Brother, how did it go? Did you succeed?"
Wu Tian was speechless. Why was this guy acting like he was a thief? He handed over the wine gourd and said, "Senior, I can only take this much. I can't take any more."
Green Ox took the gourd of wine, shook it slightly, and grinned from ear to ear, "It's alright, it's alright, it's more than enough."
Before he could finish speaking, he put his arm around Wu Tian's shoulder again, "Brother, why are you calling me 'senior'? It's too formal. Just call me Brother Niu."
"And that damn Chu Yong, he dared to mess with my brother. I'll twist his head off sooner or later and give you a chance to vent your anger."
The bull was so excited that he made all sorts of promises, almost saying he would pluck the moon from the sky to feed his little brother.
Wu Tian was still preoccupied with something, so he asked, "Brother Niu, you said before that you had a way to transform me without the loose immortals noticing?"
Old Niu carefully uncorked the gourd, took a sniff, and quickly plugged it back in. His head was full of satisfaction. When he came to his senses, he said, "Brother, you're confused. You haven't mastered the Supreme Refining Form Method yourself. Don't we have any senior masters in our sect who have practiced it?"
"As far as I know, there are several magical treasures forged in the sect using the 'Supreme Refining Form Method,' all of which are wondrous."
"For example, the Dragon-Hiding Stake can transform one into a green dragon, flying through the sky and burrowing into the earth, overturning rivers and seas, and summoning wind and rain, which is no less than that of a real dragon."
"Furthermore, there is that magical treasure, the Purple Gold Eight Trigrams Furnace, which can refine the properties of matter. Any rare and precious materials thrown in can be used to refine a batch of golden pills."
"And then there's the Golden Cicada. Just put it in your mouth and it can transform. Although it must be distinguished by gender and cannot be mixed up with yin and yang, no matter how tall or short, fat or thin, handsome or ugly, as long as it changes its appearance, even a wandering immortal would be hard to recognize unless they are skinned and dismembered."
"If you encounter danger and are struck by that wandering immortal, you can simply shed your skin with a thought, leaving only a layer of molted skin."
Wu Tiangou's eyes lit up immediately, and he grabbed his brother Niu's arm, "Good brother, tell me quickly, where is this Golden Cicada now?"
The Green Ox laughed and said, "I know that. The Golden Cicada is a good treasure for protecting oneself and one's life. A few years ago, there was a boy named Li Guan who cultivated the Great Freedom Formless Sword Qi. He was given this treasure by the old man."
"With this item, he can comprehend the principle of formless transformation, and even if he encounters a wandering immortal, he can escape unscathed."
"I heard that kid caused quite a commotion at Jietian Peak before, attracting the attention of a powerful figure from the Northwest Demon God Sect, who slammed Jietian Peak down with a single palm strike."
"If it weren't for that Golden Cicada, he would have been smashed into a bloody pulp long ago!"
Wu Tian felt that this was too much of a coincidence. He didn't know many people in the sect, and if it had happened to someone else, it would have been really troublesome.
If it were Li Guan, perhaps he could think of a solution.
His eyes darted around, thinking that Li Guan had exposed Bai Qian's Howling Celestial Dog bloodline, which caused his female demon to be hunted down. Although he wouldn't hold a grudge against him, if he could get his hands on Jin Chanzi, that would be his way of making amends.
This dog is really petty; he's already plotting against Li Guan.
He was only thinking about going to Jinxia Cave to find his master, and he wanted to get Li Guan to hand over the Golden Cicada, or at the very least, lend it to him for a while.
"I'll become Chen Jingzhen then, and have some fun with Chu Qingyu..."
He was scheming, thinking that since others were bullying the female demons in his cave, he would bully other people's wives and bully them severely. Just then, he heard the Green Ox mutter, "Brother, you must not be careless. Although that treasure is good, even a wandering immortal cannot see through its flaws. But if you really become someone who already exists in this world, and your relatives and friends know you well, they will probably expose you just by observing your words, actions, and daily habits."
"This treasure still needs to be disguised as a stranger, blending into the crowd; it's a way to escape..."
"Furthermore, if you become a cultivator but cannot use other people's supernatural abilities, wouldn't you expose yourself if you made a move?"
"In the end, it's just a magic weapon. We must not be careless and risk losing our lives."
Wu Tian was not disappointed upon hearing this. If the magic weapon truly had no flaws, it would be more than just a magic weapon, and he wouldn't have been able to obtain it so easily.
These two drawbacks, apart from the inability to use one's hands which is somewhat troublesome, are not significant in terms of behavior and daily habits.
He originally intended to obtain the two people's aura and probe their memories, so that he would know exactly what positions the couple usually used.
As for the Primordial Spirit True Person, they have protective magical light that prevents them from drawing upon the Primordial Spirit's aura.
Tsk tsk...Isn't it because my brother Niu is here?
Wu Tiangou's mind raced, sorting through all his thoughts. He then decided to first get his hands on Li Guan's Golden Cicada, and then figure out a way to take action against the couple.
He was itching to take action right away.
However, since we haven't obtained the Golden Cicada, we can't alert the enemy by making a move.
Thinking of this, he became impatient: "Brother Niu, I'm going to my master right now to ask for her help to borrow the Golden Cicada from Li Guan. I wonder where you're staying, Brother Niu?"
He was a petty man. Just by listening to the old ox's speech, he knew it was no good. If he really brought the old ox back to Yuquan Cave, what if his delicate female demon got violated by the ox?
Although it is said that one should not covet one's brother's wife, I wonder if this old ox follows the rules and etiquette of the human race?
What if she gets angry? What will happen to my own vixen?
It's best not to test brotherhood with a beautiful wife.
This dog knows perfectly well that this might not happen, but it still mutters to itself; its mind is as small as a pinhead.
The green ox had no idea what the dog was thinking. It was already quite drunk from the Jade Pool Immortal Liquid and only wanted to hide away and savor it.
Hearing this was exactly what he wanted to hear, and he threw out the next sentence, "Good brother, if you want to call me, just call my name. As long as you are on this Suspended Sky Peak, I, Old Ox, can hear you."
"Listen carefully, my name is... Niu Youde!"
Before he finished speaking, he had already vanished in a flash.
Wu Tian's lips twitched slightly. "Niu Youde? I think he's more like a scoundrel! This old ox looks like a bandit and a mountain king!"
Before he knew it, he heard the old ox's displeased voice grumbling in his ear: "My dear brother, you mustn't speak ill of your elder brother behind his back."
“If I, Old Niu, hear this again, don’t blame me for giving you a good whack.”
Wu Tian immediately shut up obediently. It was indeed his fault for being dishonest, no wonder Lao Niu was blaming him.
He immediately apologized: "Good brother, it's all my fault. After this is done, I'll go to Biluo Cliff and make you drink."
The old ox's laughter immediately reached his ears, "Sure, sure, little brother, say whatever you want, curse as you please, but..."
"Add... alcohol!"
Once the old ox's voice disappeared, Wu Tiancai breathed a slight sigh of relief. The higher the cultivation level of these immortals, Buddhas, demons, and monsters, the more unfathomable their methods became.
Like the old ox, who can be immediately sensed as soon as his name is called, this is no ordinary person.
"As expected of the Demon Saint..."
He was also somewhat envious, wondering when he would be able to possess such supernatural abilities.
"But I'm not bad now either. I can immediately sense who is plotting against me, and I can even know the past and future, so I can dig a pit in advance and bury all the enemies."
"At least Old Niu doesn't have that kind of ability... right?"
"It seems that even the Heavenly Capital Taoist's predictions of the past and future are not as accurate as mine."
"wrong……"
Wu Tian's expression suddenly changed. Even mentioning Lao Niu's name was enough for the other party to sense it; that day…
Even though he only thought it to himself, what if it happened?!
"No wonder Old Niu kept calling that old man 'old thing,' it seems he's learned his lesson..."
He suddenly felt a headache coming on, wondering if he had mentioned that patriarch before, and how much of it he had heard about.
"We still need to be careful. A wise person is cautious even when alone. Even a dog shouldn't talk or bark carelessly!"
His mind was filled with wild thoughts, but now that he had something to rely on and a solution, he was no longer as angry as before, and headed straight for Jinxia Cave.
When they arrived at Jinxia Cave, Zhu Yeshuang saw that the dog had returned, and she knew that something was wrong.
When Wu Tian asked to borrow Li Guan's Golden Cicada, Zhu Yeshuang knew even more that this dog couldn't possibly have any good intentions.
Only after Wu Tian repeatedly begged to see it and promised never to harm anyone, did she agree to the matter after agreeing to three conditions.
"You must remember this well: you are absolutely forbidden from playing tricks on your fellow disciples within the sect, you are absolutely forbidden from harming anyone without cause, and you are absolutely forbidden from secretly going down the mountain..."
Wu Tian nodded frantically, agreeing to everything in one go.
Zhu Yeshuang knew that this dog couldn't possibly be so docile, but she still agreed in the end. With a flick of her sleeve, she knocked the dog out of the hole.
"Stay put in Jade Spring Cave and don't cause any trouble."
"I will contact you once I have news from my side."
Wu Tian was happy to receive the promise, but he was still somewhat uneasy because he hadn't gotten his hands on the Golden Cicada.
Once back in the cave, he remembered that he had brought the jade liquid for the female demon. He immediately presented it to Bai Qian like a treasure, saying, "Qianqian, let me show you a treasure."
Bai Qian glanced at him with her beautiful eyes, "What treasure could you possibly have? You're trying to trick me into eating it again..."
Before she could finish speaking, her eyes widened.
Does this little rascal really have a treasure?
