Chapter 66: Small Lake in the Peak
Zhang Tie took out a gray book from the storage bag, with the words "Blood Evil Sword Qi" written on it.

Zhang Tie simply flipped through it, his eyes filled with joy, "This is indeed the evil sword used by that boy!"

According to the book, there are nine levels of blood evil sword energy. If a cultivator wants to learn this technique, he needs to have reached the foundation-building stage.

When one has mastered the first level, one can condense sword balls of evil spirit through one's fingers. Although the sword balls are not very powerful at this time, they can still affect the soul of the person they hit. Moreover, as one's cultivation level improves, one can increase the number and power of the sword balls.

According to the description in this book, if the spiritual power of the cultivator who practices this method is strong enough, even if a cultivator in the Jindan stage is hit by this evil sword pill, his body will be instantly affected. In mild cases, he will be paralyzed all over, and in severe cases, his soul will be damaged!
"Not bad, except for the need to deal with the influence of evil spirit on the soul, there are no disadvantages." Zhang Tie praised in his heart, "I will have a good means of attack in the future!"

Zhang Tie then put away the Evil Sword Technique and continued to check the other items in the storage bag. However, after sorting them out, he did not find anything useful. Apart from some spirit stones and elixirs, there were only some low-level magic weapons.

Zhang Tie was not disappointed. After all, what he lacked more was time, and some ordinary resources were not of much use to him.

"But the most urgent task is to deal with the matter of the Yuanying Ancestor!"

Zhang Tie pinched his beard and frowned slightly. He was so happy just now that he forgot that he was going to meet Yuanying this time!

He has hidden his true identity, and Zhang Tie's current Qi Condensation Technique cannot deceive the Nascent Soul Ancestor!

After thinking about it, he couldn't come up with any good solution.

Finally, Zhang Tie had no choice but to take advantage of these two days to find out more about Old Man Qiong. If it didn't work, he would have to make other plans.

Afterwards, Zhang Tie decided to ask Nangong Yun to help him search one last time.

After some twists and turns, Zhang Tie arrived in front of a cave and quietly observed the formation pattern in front of him.

According to Nangong Yun’s previous description, Old Man Qiong was very likely to come to the Yanyue Sect’s several mountains with the most spiritual energy to practice in seclusion.

After all, Old Man Qiong failed to break through the barrier, so he still needs to recuperate well. Although his previous cave was good, it was far from meeting the highest standards of the Yanyue Sect.

"I'll take you here. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first." Nangong Yun said as he took out a token from his arms. "This is the token for inner disciples of the Yanyue Sect. Except in the sect's forbidden area, basically no one will stop you."

"Thank you, senior!" Zhang Tie bowed to Nangong Yun.

"Be careful!" Nangong Yun glanced at him fiercely, thinking that he was always calling him senior. Then he left without looking back.

Zhang Tie scratched his head, "Why are you suddenly angry?"

"Forget it. Finding old man Qiong is more important! I'll give her a few Dingyan Pills later. I remember Han Li should be able to refine them!"

Looking back, Zhang Tie looked at the array pattern in front of him and quickly found several nodes in it.

Although he is only practicing Qi cultivation now, Zhang Tie can already infer the locations of the formation nodes by observing the formation patterns, and then find some loopholes. Through these loopholes, Zhang Tie can vaguely know the situation inside the formation.

"It's empty too!" Zhang Tie shook his head, then turned and walked towards the next cave.

After many searches, they still couldn't find Old Man Qiong. It seemed that he had completely disappeared in the Yanyue Sect.

Walking on the avenue of Yanyue Sect with a depressed look on his face, Zhang Tie realized that he might not be able to take care of old man Qiong until his death.

Suddenly, a lake nearby attracted Zhang Tie's attention.

"Is there a lake in Yanyue Sect?" Zhang Tie knew that Yanyue Sect was made up of several mountains, so it shouldn't have a lake. Never mind, looking at the scenery along the road would also help to relax.

Arriving at the lake, Zhang Tie felt relaxed and happy.

"I haven't felt this relaxed for a long time, why not take a break first!" For some reason, Zhang Tie wanted to let go of everything and have a good sleep.

However, he couldn't help but push the Qi Condensing Technique to its limit, set up a concealment formation around him, and fell into a deep sleep.

"Gao Shan, is everything ready?"

Not far from where Zhang Tie was, two male cultivators suddenly came to the lake.

"Everything is ready," Gao Shan bowed to the man in front of him, and then asked with a puzzled look, "But uncle, why are you here?"

"This is the Yanyue Sect. Although I came here under the pretext of a marriage alliance, the Yanyue Sect will definitely be on guard against me. Maybe the cave where I am is equipped with some arrangements."

The man in white found a place where fallen leaves were piled up and sat down directly, "Gaoshan, come and sit down."

"I asked the Moon-Shattering Sect to build this lake. After all, I'm going to represent the Cloud-Shattering Sect in a marriage alliance with them, so it's not too much to ask for it, right?"

As he spoke, the man in white took out a jade slip and handed it to Gao Shan who was sitting next to him. He looked at him with a smile and asked, "Do you feel a sense of relief?"

"This?" Gao Shan felt it carefully and found that he had given up all his defenses and let down all guard against the man in white in front of him.

Instantly, a chill rose from his back, because he knew that the smiling monk in front of him was the notorious murderer of the Blood Evil Sect. His favorite thing to do was to tease low-level monks and make them kill each other like poisonous insects.

After the final winner is decided, the low-level cultivators will not survive, but will be tortured personally by him.

"Are you scared?" the man in white asked, tilting his head.

Gao Shan was so frightened that he started trembling instantly, but he dared not move at all, because he knew that the old demon in front of him liked prey that struggled the most, and he would lose interest in submissive people.

"How boring!" The man in white shook his head. "This is where I plan to get married, so I specially prepared this formation that can make people feel bliss!"

Before Gao Shan could speak, the man in white stood up and said, "The annihilation of Qingxu Sect was planned by Xuanfeng. I was amazed when I heard it!"

"So I want to replicate it again in Yanyue Sect," he then turned to look at Gao Shan, "Do you think I will succeed?"

"Of course. How can Master Xuesha's attainments in formations be compared to that of Xuanfeng!" Gao Shan forced a smile, stood up and bowed.

“I wonder what it will feel like to be the Gu King who is the final winner in the Yanyue Sect!” True Man Xuesha looked intoxicated.

"But the most important thing is your evil bead!"

Then the two chatted for a while and left.

After a long while, the fallen leaves in the grass suddenly moved.
