Chapter 29 Mystery
Zhang Yunling's already chaotic thoughts were completely stunned by Sun Jie's words, leaving her frozen in place.
Seemingly realizing that what he had said was too advanced for the young man in front of him, Sun Jie did not interrupt him and let him figure it out on his own.
After a long while, Zhang Yunling's bewildered eyes regained their clarity. He stood up, bowed to Sun Jie, and said, "Thank you for your help, senior. Your extraordinary abilities have completely restored my perfect foundation-building platform, which was destroyed. I would like to express my gratitude by presenting you with the magic weapon called the Vajra Bracelet."
Sun Jie smiled and nodded, replying, "Strictly speaking, we don't know each other. I saved you just because it was something I did after obtaining the Vajra Bracelet. However, if you can bring me the whereabouts of other immortal artifacts, I can grant you another great opportunity."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yunling's mind raced. To be honest, if Sun Jie hadn't told him about the Vajra Bracelet, Zhang Yunling wouldn't even know what a so-called immortal artifact was.
But now that he has witnessed the extraordinary cultivation of this powerful being, Zhang Yunling needs to adapt to the situation and seek the greatest benefit.
"Reporting to senior, I do know the whereabouts of some other immortal artifacts, but due to my insufficient cultivation and the fact that this matter is too important to let others know, I have not been able to search for them. However, if senior can provide me with some resources to improve my strength, I can go to these places as soon as possible to obtain magical treasures for you."
Upon hearing this, Sun Jie's smile deepened. He had lived through countless more years than the young man before him. Although he could obtain any treasure he desired simply by reaching out his arm into the void, he still chose to grant this young man a great fortune.
Faced with the reality of these boundary rules, Sun Jie had no choice but to temporarily submit. The world he originally lived in had been a shackle that imprisoned his freedom, but now he had somehow escaped from it.
His memories were somewhat chaotic, and his recollection of leaving that world was even more hazy and unclear. Only those three words kept echoing in Sun Jie's mind.
“The Mad Demon Cave…” Sun Jie looked up at the ceiling, frowning as he muttered to himself. He knew he didn’t belong to any of the universes here, whether it was the one he had been in or the one he was in now. These were all places where he had wandered after losing his way.
However, after using his cultivation to investigate the situation in the realm he was in, he chose the... correct method that could take him away from here.
"What's your name?" Sun Jie asked the boy in front of him, pulling himself out of his memories.
"Reporting to senior, my name is Zhang Yunling."
“Very well, you don’t need to be so formal with me. Just call me…Brother Sun. In the future, we can become partners and search for the Thirty-Three Immortal Artifacts together and acquire them.” Sun Jie slightly raised his right hand, and a gentle force lifted Zhang Yunling’s bowing figure.
Then, Sun Jie's right hand began to emit a dark purple halo, and an invisible suction force emanated from the center of his palm. Zhang Yunling almost lost his balance and was pulled directly into his hand. After realizing what was happening, he quickly activated his cultivation to stabilize his body, thus avoiding being pulled in.
Seeing this, Sun Jie withdrew his right-hand supernatural power and smiled at Zhang Yunling, saying, "This move is my own creation, called the Formless Hand. The Vajra Bracelet was forcibly taken away by this move. You have seen its power."
At this moment, Zhang Yunling's eyes revealed a look of shock. He recalled that terrifying phantom hand, that powerful method that suppressed the immortal artifact with its pressure, leaving it unable to resist. It was a heaven-reaching power that he had never seen before in his life.
"Could it be that you intend to teach me this immortal technique?" Zhang Yunling looked at Sun Jie with anticipation, waiting for the other party to agree. Once he learned this move, he would be able to directly resist the pursuit of those people from the Qiankun Dao and wander the world unattended.
"What are you dreaming about? This killing move is my strongest technique, how could I easily hand it over to someone else? What I want to tell you is another killing move that is also driven by the meridians in your hand, which will also be of great help to your current cultivation level."
Upon hearing Sun Jie's words, Zhang Yunling's dream of ruling the Dao Tian Continent was completely shattered. Somewhat dejected, he asked, "May I ask what kind of cultivation technique it is?"
Sun Jie took out a tattered blue book from his pocket and handed it to Zhang Yunling. "This book was found in this body after my soul transmigrated to this world. I opened it and read it a while ago. This killing move is somewhat similar to one from my previous world, but its power is far inferior. However, with your lowest level of cultivation, even a mortal-level killing move like this is enough for you to use as a trump card."
As Zhang Yunling took the tattered blue book from Sun Jie, he couldn't help but think of the opportunity he had to obtain the Divine Speed Ghost Step. The technique in front of him was no different from the Divine Speed Ghost Step; both were worn out on the outside, but the contents inside were astonishing.
Given Sun Jie's level of cultivation, ordinary cultivation techniques would certainly not catch his eye. However, in Zhang Yunling's view, obtaining a cultivation technique from such a powerful figure was already an incredible opportunity.
Upon opening the book, I saw three large characters written vertically in neat handwriting on the first page: True Yang Finger.
Without looking through it any further, Zhang Yunling put it into his storage bag, intending to study it carefully when he returned. He bowed respectfully to Sun Jie again, "Thank you for the cultivation technique, senior. I will definitely do my best to find the whereabouts of other immortal artifacts and repay you properly."
Sun Jie waved his hand and said calmly, "I told you not to be so polite. You're so moved by this lousy manual? Alright, I'll send you back to your original continent. If you find any other immortal artifacts, use this jade slip to send me a message." With that, Sun Jie took out a dark green jade slip from his pocket and threw it into Zhang Yunling's hand.
"My original continent?" Zhang Yunling wondered. So the place Sun Jie brought him to was no longer the Dao Tian Continent, but one of the other four domains? Such spatial control was truly terrifying.
"Understood, Brother Sun! I won't let you down!" Zhang Yunling didn't care about anything else anymore. Full of fighting spirit, he gripped the True Yang Finger manual and the communication jade slip tightly and nodded vigorously to Sun Jie.
Sun Jie patted Zhang Yunling on the shoulder with satisfaction, then tore open a spatial rift with his bare hands and pushed Zhang Yunling inside.
After a dizzying moment, Zhang Yunling reappeared on the Dao Tian Continent in just a few breaths. As expected, this spatial teleportation spanning tens of thousands of miles was still too powerful for him at the moment.
Suppressing the tightness and discomfort in his chest, Zhang Yunling hurriedly looked at his hands. Great! The secret manual and jade slip given to him by Sun Jie were still intact in his hands.
"Although it was a near-death experience, it was all thanks to the influence of the Qiankun Luck Pill, and I even managed to get close to a powerful figure. It seems like this time I've had a lot of opportunities, both good and bad! Hahahaha!"
Just as Zhang Yunling burst into loud laughter, completely lost in his own world, a large group of people suddenly surged up around him, each wielding swords, spears, and halberds, charging towards him head-on.
"Xu Tianli! You've already chosen your own death!!!"
