A blind man cultivates immortality and witnesses the great secret of the holy maiden in her bridal c

Before dawn, the morning mist shrouded the Tianhai Mountains like a thin veil.

Chen Yang has quietly returned to Talisman Peak.

He had no idea that Yu Xinlian, who lived down the mountain, was undergoing a rapid transformation, and even if he did know, he would never connect it to himself.

How could Chen Yang have imagined that his physique possessed the unique abilities of a dragon horse?

Back at his lodgings, Chen Yang quickly wiped the dust off his clothes and then eagerly pulled out the many ancient books on talismans he had collected. He sat cross-legged by the window and began to study them frantically in the dim morning light.

When Chen Yang killed Wu Jingren and Peng Duozhi a few days ago, he discovered that these talismans were actually very powerful. The protective power that erupted at the critical moment allowed those two guys to withstand the fatal blow.

However, the art of talismans is truly obscure and difficult to understand, and the relevant information is scattered like stars scattered across the ground. To even get a glimpse of it is as difficult as climbing to heaven.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

The door was gently pushed open, and a slender figure walked in gracefully.

The newcomer was none other than Senior Sister Qingyun. She wore a light green dress, the hem of which swayed with her steps. Her black hair was like a waterfall, and her eyes held a hint of aloofness, yet concealed an unyielding gentleness.

Qingyun walked straight to Chen Yang and sat down opposite him. She tapped the table lightly with her jade-like fingers and smiled admiringly, "Chen Yang, you are indeed amazing. You actually managed to get rid of those two people without them even noticing."

"Now that I have collected the heads of Du Juenian's three illegitimate sons, as long as I get rid of the seventh son, Zheng Congwen, I can go to that senior for help."

Chen Yang looked up, a hint of doubt in his eyes, and couldn't help but ask, "Senior sister, that senior's request is too strange. Why did he insist on a human head as a gift?"

Qingyun shook her head, her eyes darkening. "You don't know the inside story, so don't speculate. I'll explain everything to you after I kill Zheng Congwen."

"Alright, Senior Sister, you can arrange it." Chen Yang nodded in agreement, then changed the subject, pointing to the stack of ancient books on the table, "I've been reading these books about talismans lately, but the basics of talisman arrays are too difficult. Senior Sister, do you have any guidance?"

Qingyun followed his gaze across the table, her delicate brows furrowing slightly as she shook her head. "The books you're reading are too advanced. With your current level of understanding, I'm afraid you'll have a hard time comprehending them. I suggest you start with introductory texts."

As she spoke, she turned and walked to the bookshelf, rummaged through it, and handed over a stack of simply bound books.

Chen Yang took a look and couldn't help but smile wryly.

These books are indeed very basic, mostly containing fundamental knowledge of formations. But Chen Yang has already reached a perfect and supreme level in the art of formations, so why would he need to study such childish things?

Qingyun explained, "The art of talismans is far more complex than that of formations. To create talismans independently requires at least ten years of immersion, and even just getting started takes several years. Right now, I can only make some simple protective talismans."

She paused, then added, "Most of the talismans on the other people in the sect were given to you by Du Juenian. You can't rush it; you have to take it one step at a time."

Chen Yang nodded helplessly and could only put the stack of introductory books aside.

Qingyun's tone suddenly turned serious: "Du Juenian's strength has increased dramatically recently. I estimate that it won't be long before he attempts to break through to the Earth-rank Golden Core stage. Once he succeeds, he will definitely kidnap me to be his cultivation furnace! We must invite that senior before then, otherwise, with the two of us, we are no match for Du Juenian at all."

"Alright, I'll follow Senior Sister's plan." Chen Yang replied in a deep voice.

Qingyun got up, walked to his side, bent down, and gently kissed his cheek.

The soft touch stirred Chen Yang's heart. He reached out and pulled the beautiful senior sister into his arms, his fingers instinctively reaching for her skirt.

"Hey!" Qingyun quickly pushed him away, a sly glint in her eyes, and chuckled, "I just kissed you to express my gratitude, don't push your luck~ Besides, I know you're not up to it, so you'd better take it easy."

"Who are you calling incapable?" Chen Yang immediately retorted, raising an eyebrow. "Let's try it right now!"

"Hehehe~" Qingyun laughed so hard she was shaking, then turned and ran out the door, leaving Chen Yang alone in the room, sulking.

He sat down again, stroked his chin, and his eyes gradually brightened: "Perhaps, I'm not far from mastering the basics of talismans."

Formations and talismans share the same origin. He has already reached the pinnacle of formations, but he is still unable to get started. This must be because he has chosen the wrong entry point!

Having figured this out, Chen Yang immediately started rummaging through the room, deciding to first read through all the ancient books on talismans and find the key that was easiest to grasp.

For me, all I need to do is get the basics right!

Three more days passed, and Chen Yang was studying a tattered ancient book.

The door was suddenly pushed open, and Qingyun rushed in, her face beaming with undisguised joy: "Chen Yang, the opportunity has arrived!"

"I've learned that Zheng Congwen has accepted a sect mission to go to Baisong Kingdom to invite an alchemist to join the Tianhai Sect. He just left recently, so you should quickly prepare and also head to Baisong Kingdom!"

As she spoke, she took out a folded map from her bosom and handed it over: "The places marked on the map are not only where the alchemist might appear, but also Zheng Congwen's destination."

Chen Yang took the map, casually put it in his pocket, and said crisply, "Received! Senior Sister, I'll go down the mountain now."

"Wait!" Qingyun quickly reached out and grabbed his wrist, her eyes full of concern. "Chen Yang, don't push yourself! Although Zheng Congwen is only at the early stage of the Divine Power Realm, he is ruthless and extremely cunning. You must be careful and not fall into his trap."

Chen Yang chuckled, reached out and lightly patted her pert bottom, teasingly saying, "Don't worry, Senior Sister, you don't trust me to handle things?"

Qingyun's cheeks flushed instantly. She nodded gently and said in a soft voice, "Okay, I'll wait for your good news."

Chen Yang gave an "OK" sign, turned around, and strode towards the Tianhai Gate.

Just as I reached the foot of the mountain, a burst of chattering and arguing reached my ears.

Chen Yang turned his head in the direction of the sound and saw six young men dressed in the outer disciple robes of the Tianhai Sect arguing heatedly on an open ground more than 300 meters to his left. They were refusing to give in to each other.

One figure stood out, with a slender and straight back and round, straight legs. Who else could it be but Pang Lele?

Chen Yang hesitated for a moment, but still stepped forward.

Upon closer inspection, it became clear that among the three men and three women, a white fox lay unconscious, its fur snow-white and its appearance quite charming.

"What's wrong? Why are you making such a racket here?" Chen Yang asked Pang Lele directly.

Pang Lele turned her head and saw Chen Yang. She was stunned for a moment, then seemed to have found her pillar of support. She subconsciously took two steps closer and said dejectedly, "A few of us captured this white demon fox on the outskirts. It's very important to our Breeding Peak's mission. But we only caught one, and the elder at the mission office only gave us one reward pill. So we're arguing about who deserves the most credit and who should hand in the mission."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yang instantly understood the whole story.

At this moment, a tall outer disciple stepped forward, a hint of arrogance on his face: "Fellow junior brothers and sisters, in terms of strength, I am the strongest among you. Naturally, I contributed the most when capturing the white fox. This task should be completed by me. Once I receive the pills, I will compensate you in other ways. That's settled!"

After saying that, he reached out to grab the white fox demon.

"Snapped!"

Chen Yang flicked his wrist, precisely slapping his hand away. He then bent down, picked up the white fox, and gently tossed it into Pang Lele's arms, coldly saying, "Shut up! I've made the decision. The white fox is with Pang Lele; he can go and collect the mission. You lot, go home immediately! If you dare utter another word, you'll be dealt with according to the sect rules!"

Upon hearing this, the three men and two women immediately looked indignant.

They are all disciples of the Breeding Peak, and like Pang Lele, they are all outer disciples. Two of them entered the sect a year earlier. Why did Pang Lele get all the credit?

Seeing this, Chen Yang immediately took out his inner disciple token, spread it out in his palm, and swept his sharp eyes over the group: "What? You're not happy about this, and you want to talk to me about it?"

Upon seeing the token engraved with the words "Inner Sect," the group turned pale with fright, trembling all over as they hurriedly bowed and saluted, no longer daring to utter a single complaint. They turned and ran away in a hurry.

Seeing this, Pang Lele's eyes lit up with surprise. She couldn't help but hug Chen Yang's arm and happily said, "Chen Yang, thank you! I didn't expect you to be so awesome!"

Chen Yang smiled and raised his chin: "Of course, I am an inner disciple after all."

Pang Lele covered her mouth and chuckled, muttering under her breath, "We all got in through connections, so why are you so lucky to become an inner disciple right away and have so much power? Chu Ran and I have to honestly start as outer disciples and work our way up. You have no idea how miserable outer disciples are. All we do all day is go out and do these trivial tasks, or feed and water the animals on the breeding peak, and clean up their droppings. It's so annoying!"

Chen Yang couldn't help but burst into laughter after hearing Pang Lele's complaints.

Pang Lele turned to look at Chen Yang, her eyes unconsciously narrowing into crescents. A heartfelt joy welled up within her, and a faint blush rose to her cheeks. She tugged at Chen Yang's arm, her tone filled with affection and anticipation: "Brother Chen Yang, you helped me get this white fox. How about I treat you to dinner after I finish my mission? Let's go to the best restaurant down the mountain!"

Chen Yang reached out and gently flicked Pang Lele's nose with his finger: "No need, I have important matters to attend to and need to leave quickly."

"You must be careful while cultivating at Tianhai Sect. The sect is full of complex people. If anything happens, find Zhang Churan immediately, understand?"

"Yes! I know!" Pang Lele nodded emphatically, her eyes sparkling.

Without further ado, Chen Yang lightly touched the ground with his toes, his figure suddenly soaring into the air, transforming into a streak of light, and speeding towards the direction of Baisong Kingdom.

Pang Lele watched his departing figure, her eyes filled with admiration and excitement, yet also with a hint of barely perceptible loss—was this bittersweet feeling the taste of youthful infatuation?
