Chapter 119: Chapter 116 Wanxiang Bag, Daoist Skill Name: The Wealthy

Wang Yuan felt somewhat guilty as he looked around.

Only a few maids who had escaped disaster, after kowtowing to him a few times with loud knocks, clutched their clothes and fled deep into the sleeping chambers, not daring to glance at the corpse on the ground again.

"Forget it, since it didn’t affect my ’Yin Morality,’ I know what’s going on now," he said.

Wang Yuan had initially planned to control these people and then figure out whether he could bring them back to normal from the influence of the ’Joyful Deity.’

Now upon seeing them, he realized, "Beastly nature had been their normal state; it was only the seriously money-grabbing rioters who were abnormal."

It was just perfect to recreate them from the ground up in one fell swoop.

Then, he casually whistled as if nothing was amiss.

However, a trace of the Light of Spirit inside him gently flicked the bell on Huang Wu’s ankle once again.

Suddenly.

All of the remaining people dropped dead on the spot.

This unexpected ’killing tribulation’ he unleashed also notably slowed the accumulation of tribulation energy above his head.

Wang Yuan could only lament, "Indeed, a harmonious society is better, I hope that all those who force girls, may they be proper humans in their next life."

After temporarily ensuring the safety of the innocents, having delayed for quite some time, he was ready to pick a random direction to continue the chase.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

All of a sudden, a sound like wind and thunder clashing, crushing vegetation, reached his ears.

Taken aback, he twisted his head only to see from the depths of the darkness at the Prince Mansion, two dragon-like streaks of cold light, moving as fast as lightning, chasing each other in hot pursuit and piercing through branches, air, and glazed tiles flying towards him.

"Dragon Qi Prohibition" temporarily created a vacuum, which not only allowed the ’Weird’ to move unobstructed but also allowed the Magician’s Daoist Skill to exert its full power.

Although the two streaks of cold light were as fast as lightning, with just one glance, Wang Yuan recognized their true nature.

It was none other than the ’Summoning and Chasing Technique,’ one of the "Xiangshan Seventy-Two Magical Arts" he was all too familiar with.

This was originally given to Wang Yuan by Lady Peach Fairy as a payment, and although he hadn’t cultivated it due to various reasons, he was quite knowledgeable about its cultivation method and ’Precept Taboos.’

At the same time, faster than thought, his body, still possessed by Lady Peach Fairy, dodged like a ghost.

With the ’Non-Human Level’ physique of the ’White Tiger Elite Soldiers,’ he barely moved his feet and dodged the two streaks of cold light in the nick of time.

In the moment of brushing past, Wang Yuan, with his greatly enhanced ’Vision as Dark as Indigo,’ saw clearly they were two brilliant short swords as if held by invisible hands.

Missing their strike, the twin swords suddenly wheeled back, and as they spun and shot through the air, the sword lights flickered, scattering cold stars towards Wang Yuan with a series of piercing shrills.

"Heh, an ignorant kid dares track us?"

Don’t you know the ’Dharma Seed’ of ’Xiangshan Seventy-Two Magical Arts’ in your body, shines like a candle flame at night in our eyes, completely unable to hide.

To die under my Flying Sword is also your good fortune!"

From the darkness in the distance, a thin sharp voice sounded as if it came through the eye of a needle.

This person, despite having detected the traces of his Sect’s Daoist Skill in Wang Yuan’s body, still attacked mercilessly.

These demons believed that only when one has established the Dao Foundation and fully bound with the Tao Lineage through the Receiving Talisman, could one be considered one of their own.

Before that, who knows how many had obtained fragments of the ’Xiangshan Seventy-Two Magical Arts,’ many of whom bore blood feuds with the Xiangshan Sect; how could they possibly show mercy to every one?

What’s crucial is that the ’Dharma Seed’ inside Wang Yuan is not the ’Summoning and Chasing Technique,’ which made his opponent even bolder in their attack.

However.

Wang Yuan, having inherited all the skills of ’Thief Cat’ Cui Tong, excelled in the ’Butterfly Soldier Skill’ which was adept at evasive maneuvers, continuously dodging the series of flying stabs.

He was very clear that although this skill appeared frightening, it was far from the true art of Flying Swords.

It required refining with the wing bones of fierce birds such as Golden Eagles and Night Owls and inviting the corresponding two types of demons to reside within one’s body, it was thoroughly a left-handed side skill.

During Sword Control, by letting the demon possess the Sword, controlling the demon was akin to controlling the Sword.

But the cloaked figure was just like Wang Yuan, who had just established his ’Dao Foundation’ and had not yet received the Talisman.

This level of ’Summoning and Chasing Technique’ was at most equivalent to having two extra invisible arms, the speed, strength, and skill all had inherent limits.

Not to mention, hoping to take someone’s head from a thousand miles away.

Moreover...

"Precept Taboo three: this left-handed side skill of Summoning and Chasing, should not be mentioned in the same breath as Sword Control, fears objects of yang energy such as Black Dog Blood, Vermilion, Thunder, etc."

Wang Yuan had originally been cautious of Lady Peach Fairy, not refining the skill because of this word ’etc.’ which included Peach Wood!

With the plan devised, he suddenly sneered:

"Hah, bragging so much, the side door left-handed Summoning and Chasing Technique also dares to call itself Flying Sword?"

Upon hearing Wang Yuan straightforwardly expose the nature of the technique, the two revolving cutting Flying Swords paused for a moment.

The next instant.

Countless black peach branches branded with red runes violently sprouted from Wang Yuan’s head, like ghostly claws, they easily engulfed them.

Even though the two short swords swam swiftly like fish through the branches, they still couldn’t escape their fate of capture.

Crack!

The ’Deceit Object Peach Wood Hairpin,’ with a single exertion of force, extinguished both the Sword and the residing demon within it.

"Pfft—!"

When Wang Yuan broke through the chilly wind and emerged from the Yin Road, he saw a cloaked figure spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood in a dark corner, collapsing weakly to the ground.

The hood over the head had already slipped off, revealing the true appearance below.

It could only be said to somewhat resemble a human.

On a round head, just like the "No Face" outside, there also was no face.

Only at the position of the mouth there was a small hole not much thicker than the tip of an awl.

The limbs were short and stubby with no neck, the whole body resembling an earthworm, seeming to have a path that could stretch from the front mouth all the way to the back.

"Soul Capturing!"

Wang Yuan reached out and grabbed, and a soul, mutated just like its exterior, was forcibly pulled from the half-dead body.

"Yin!"

Looking at the bewildered soul, he nodded in satisfaction, directly killing and extracting the life soul retained far more memories than letting it turn into a ghost on its own.

He would normally have bitten down to extract thought fragments directly, but he dared not bite into such heavily mutated beings.

"Let’s do it this way, I ask and you answer!"

"What exactly are you planning by breaking the Dragon Qi Prohibition briefly and inviting ’Joyful Deity’ to Luoyang?"

At these words, the demon’s soul seemed foolish, emitting intermittent mumbling:

"The Sect Master Marshal said that a portion of the Great Yan Dragon Qi is entrusted in the royal bloodlines, they perish with the nation; as long as the royal family exists, the nation exists.

The Ancestor divided the sons throughout Great Yan primarily to stabilize the prohibition.

Wang Yuan increasingly felt that the "Dragon Qi Prohibition" was structured somewhat like the "Golden Cage Prison Bird Formation," with the royal clan serving as the "cage door" and the billions of citizens as the "cage bars".

In the past, he was unaware that these "fat pigs" flaunting their power across the nation actually served such a purpose.

However, even if Wang Yuan had known about this before, it wouldn’t have changed his original plans.

To kill when necessary — back then there was no room for his hesitation.

"We had already received news three days ago that Yifan was completely devoured by the ’Owl God Tomb,’ and there was no longer an owner in the Prince Mansion, ’Dragon Qi Prohibition’ was bound to fluctuate, a rare heavenly opportunity.

My ’All Appearances Dao’ is the master of Heavenly Destiny, we want to revolt, to establish a state of demons on Earth.

A great catastrophe is upon us, heaven and earth will darken, the sun and moon will lose their light, All Appearances shall shine!

The Taoist Sect allowed us to enter Luoyang to test the Court’s reaction and meanwhile collect military pay!"

He extended a stubby hand, pointing toward a small black leather pouch at his corpse’s waist.

Wang Yuan originally thought their elaborate infiltration of the ’Luoyang Royal Mansion’ was to find some treasure or at least some crucial intel or documents.

Unexpectedly, it was merely for seeking wealth?

He was instantly bored by the discovery.

Not to mention that the demon hadn’t even had the chance to stuff the treasure yet, even if he had filled the pouch with gold, how much could it hold?

However,

hearing the demon’s next words, Wang Yuan realized he had indeed been naive.

"This is the ’Wanxiang Bag,’ crafted from disciples who practiced the ’Xiangshan Seventy-two Marvelous Skills·Sumeru Pot Heaven Skill’ in my sect.

It is not only as light as a feather but can also hold objects a hundred times its own volume!

This skill is unique to ’All Appearances Dao’ and is in high demand in all major Ghost Markets. About seventy percent of storage treasures of the Red Seal level in markets are produced by ’All Appearances Dao.’"

"Sumeru Pot Heaven? Storage Treasure?!"

Wang Yuan’s eyes immediately brightened.

Up till now, he had never encountered a storage treasure, showcasing the rarity of such items.

He had always felt something was missing in this Divine Deceit World; now it was finally complete.

Moreover, after finally learning about the origins of this ’Wanxiang Bag.’

Wang Yuan was no longer surprised that even though the "Precepts and Taboos" of ’Xiangshan Seventy-two Marvelous Skills’ had been exposed, they still practiced them.

Like the Taoists of ’Peach God Tao,’ these demons were also merely consumables.

Only, the disciples of ’Peach God Tao’ were prepared for ’Immortal Pills,’ while those of ’All Appearances Dao’ were prepared for ’Magic Artifacts’!

The more widely ’Xiangshan Seventy-two Marvelous Skills’ were distributed, the more abundant the ’All Appearances Dao’s raw materials.

Wang Yuan picked up the ’Wanxiang Bag,’ feeling unable to let go, and couldn’t help but curse inwardly:

"Can there even be good people in this world? It’s a trap everywhere!

I initially thought that the Side Door would be somewhat better than the Sects, at least not having to worry about being eaten out of the blue. I was almost killed by ’All Appearances Dao’!"

Unexpectedly, the next statement from the demon was even more shattering.

"There is a collaborator within the Luoyang Royal Mansion who knows where the treasures are hidden.

The Sect Master Marshal once said, apart from our sect’s Great Magic, money is also one of the most superior Dao techniques in this world.

The number of treasures hidden in the Prince Mansion is hard to estimate, but if we speak only of gold and silver, there are fifteen secret vaults both above and below ground, roughly able to fit a total of... three thousand carts!"

"Wait, can you repeat the ’unit’ for me again?!"
