The Secret of The Demonic Artifact Mission to Yunshui Chun Village – Part I.
The next morning, as the sunlight began to sneak in through the paper cracks in the holey window, Eadric Rong opened his eyes feeling refreshed.He felt as if he had never felt the aches and pains from the practice of lightening his body on the bamboo poles. He was ready to face the new day with renewed vigor.A week had passed, and Eadric Rong was seen moving nimbly on bamboo poles of varying heights. He moved nimbly like a squirrel, hopping from one bollard to another without making a sound.The vibrations in the bamboo bollards, which used to sway violently, were now softer and more subtle.On the morning of the eighth day, Eadric Rong stood in front of the bamboo poles with two perforated iron plates that had ropes on each side. "Alright, let's enter the second era of torture!" whispered Eadric Rong excitedly.He bent down, then tied an iron plate weighing 10 jin each to his left leg and also to his right leg. The two plates weighed 20 jin in total. (Two jin = 1 kg.)Eadric Rong h

He then stood up and girded his loins, looking out into the darkness of the night that stretched out in front of him."Eadric Rong will be finished this time. I have designed a trap for his death!" When speaking like this, there was an evil glint in Edmon Ouwyang's eyes.Currently, four of them were gathered in one of the gazebos above the lotus-filled lake.In that place, there were about ten gazebos. The Wudang Sect, indeed, had provided several places like this that were often used by their disciples for recreation or simply to discuss knowledge and cultivation methods for their own advancement.The atmosphere was peaceful and quiet, with only the gurgling of the lake water and the gentle breeze blowing, adding to the peaceful atmosphere.The night breeze rustling in through the cracks in their clothes made Edmon Ouwyang's three friends unknowingly start shivering in fear as they heard Edmon Ouwyang's words. Zhou Jia, the quietest of the four, spoke in a tone full of worry."But, m

The long and grueling journey to Yunshui Village took more than five full days if done on foot.Along the way, there were many places to pass through and challenges to face before they could finally arrive at their destination village.On that morning, right in front of the Wudang Sect Gate, when Edmon Ouwyang's group had been preparing to carry out the mission as a first-year disciple's obligation, a person suddenly approached the group led by Edmon Ouwyang."Stop!" he shouted loudly. At that moment, the five teenagers had already started down the stairs. Suddenly, the shout startled everyone."What's wrong?" Edmon Ouwyang's voice sounded nervous, afraid that his plan would be exposed.The five teenagers turned around. It turned out to be Senior Duan, who was a part-time intern in the mission department. Edmon Ouwyang's face instantly turned relieved.They simultaneously bowed and paid their respects to the young man who had just arrived. "Senior Duan!" they said in unison, their bod

Edmon Ouwyang felt that since this was Tanshan City and his father was a government official there, he was free to break the rules. Haughtily, he stared at his three comrades, completely ignoring Eadric Rong's opinion."Alright. I'll stay at your house!" replied Fenwick Zhao. "Me too," Callum Zeng said.Xavian Zou shrugged and said in a resigned tone, "Since you've all agreed, I'll just follow!"Edmon Ouwyang's eyes flashed slyly. "If the majority..." he thought.When the four children stepped into Edmon Ouwyang's house, which was said to be luxurious and magnificent, Fenwick Zhao suddenly realized something."Hey... where's Eadric Rong? Why didn't he come with us to Edmon Ouwyang's house?" he asked in surprise.Edmon Ouwyang, who had thought that Eadric Rong would follow them even though he was not invited, was immediately surprised."Where did that poor kid go? Always making trouble for others!" he complained in a displeased tone."It's him!" hissed Edmon Ouwyang. Just then, they sa
The Secret of The Demonic Artifact Jade Cloud Temple.
Teng - teng - tengThe night watchman in Tanshan City had just struck the gong loudly, signaling that it was 11 pm to 1 am. At the same time, Eadric Rong was engrossed in silent meditation, collecting the cool night air currents and cold moonlight, transforming them into vital energy in his body.His sharp ears were suddenly alert, hearing the sound of the footsteps of five martial experts walking carefully and silently.He opened his eyes and thought for a moment in the silence of the night. "Is it Edmon Ouwyang and his three friends?" he thought to himself.However, that question soon turned into deep doubt. "Shouldn't there be four of them? Why are there five footsteps?" thought Eadric Rong, filled with dangling question marks. He felt that something was wrong but couldn't be sure what it was.Before leaving the hall of the Jade Cloud Temple to find out who the five figures walking in the silence of the night were, there was a sudden bone-chilling snort from the Temple grounds."Yo

The night had fallen silent, and the moon in the sky seemed to glow like a ring of pure silver, surrounded by a dazzling halo.This scene gave a magical sparkle that made the sky appear beautiful and enchanting. However, this beauty was in stark contrast to the tense atmosphere of the Jade Cloud Temple.Under a Prem tree with leaves swaying in the night breeze, four shadowy human figures stood in a battle-ready stance. The dim moonlight reflected their shadows on the ground, creating an increasingly tense atmosphere.Three male figures dressed all in black seemed to surround a boy who was holding a sword firmly. The three black-clad adults stood in a ganging formation, ready to attack the boy standing in their midst.Nonetheless, the faces of the three black-clad adult male figures looked tense, filled with hidden worry and fear. This was evident when they saw their two comrades lying helplessly in the courtyard of the Jade Cloud Temple in a lifeless state.This was in stark contrast

The second sword!The second thirteen sword shadows chased after the figure of another black-clothed villain. A painful howl rang out, following which the figure of villain number two fell to the ground in a lifeless state. His body drooped limply, thick red blood flowing from his wound, seeping into the dry ground.Eadric Rong stared fiercely at the two lifeless figures of the villains and looked at the villain leader who was now on top of the three-meter-high fence of the Jade Cloud Temple.At that critical moment, the outlaw leader still had time to leer and revealed a mocking face towards Eadric Rong.The shadow in his eyes seemed to say, "Even if you kill four of my men, you can't kill me!" There was definitely a trace of contempt and condescension there.However, that happiness is only temporary.The outlaw leader was just about to turn his head to stare ahead when suddenly the shadows of thirteen swords lined up in a row approached his back."Die!" the villain shouted when he f

However, with a stammering and hesitant voice, Edmon Ouwyang tried to reply, "I... I... I don't understand what you're saying.”“Please don't speak carelessly," he said. His voice sounded nervous at first. But more and more, Edmon Ouwyang's tone sounded firm, as if he had regained his confidence.However, despite his bold words, Edmon Ouwyang did not dare to look Eadric Rong in the eye. He lowered his head, seemingly seeking protection from Eadric Rong's piercing gaze.The morning breeze rustled softly, bringing a chill that added to the frosty atmosphere between Eadric Rong and his four teammates. They stood in silence, as if time had stopped for a moment.After about ten breaths passed in silence, Eadric Rong finally spoke. However, his voice now turned slightly warmer, as if he was trying to melt the ice that had frozen between them."It's fine if you don't understand my words. Now we'd better hurry to the South, to complete the sect's task in Yunshui Chun Village!" said Eadric Ron

In a dark cave, a prison for dangerous figures in the Wudang Sect, the atmosphere was tense. There were only a few oil lamps illuminating the room, but the atmosphere had already turned cold."M-I'm sorry, Elder," Eadric Rong said, sweat pouring down his forehead.Not only did the figure in the room next to the prison almost slap his mind to pieces, but it also knew that Eadric Rong was conducting espionage activities using his spiritual power."He's angry!" muttered Eadric Rong in fear.The specialty of a person who is skilled in managing spiritual power is his ability to dive into and assess the opponent's intelligence, knowing how much pure energy and air the opponent has, as well as his cultivation level.However, not all opponents can have their minds probed. If a soul power user expert tried to investigate an opponent who had a high cultivation, this action would be extremely dangerous.Silence fell over the room after Eadric Rong withdrew his mind from the detention room next t
Bureau of Prisons.
Eadric Rong was placed in a desolate cave, a special prison for disciples deemed to have broken the rules of the Wudang Sect.The cave was located behind the Wudang Sect Main Building, a place that was heavily guarded by middle-level disciples who had cultivated high enough to prevent anyone punished there from escaping.Eadric Rong was placed in one of the iron-lined rooms, a room that measured 3 x 3 meters. It was one of the six rooms in the cave, with three on the left side and three on the right side of the cave.No other students were in the prison in the other five rooms. Because the cave was located deep inside, there was very little light. There were only oil lamps on each of the left and right sides, and one oil lamp each in the six rooms.Eadric Rong sat on the shabby pile of straw that served as his bedding and tried hard to ignore the feelings of anger that were overwhelming him."Who exactly dares to accuse me of being a traitor? But we'll find out tomorrow. I won't let t
Return to the Wudang Sect - Part III.
Last night, Hou Yan had mentioned Eadric Rong's genius to his father Hou Gang, who had become very impressed with the boy."He'll be at the top of the world on Lotus Continent later," Hou Gang hissed almost inaudibly.The sun was rolling fast. It was already overhead.At the Wudang Sect Gate, Eadric Rong looked up with a feeling of excitement."This is my home! I will practice spiritual skills, after reporting to the Sect Mission Bureau."But something unexpected happened.When Eadric Rong's footsteps were halfway up the stairs to the top of the Wudang Sect, suddenly twenty people flashed and locked him in a sword formation."Eadric Rong, the treacherous Wudang Sect first-year disciple! Accept the punishment of the Investigation and Punishment Bureau!"Eadric Rong's face tightened. "What did I do wrong? Why am I labeled as a traitorous disciple?"On that day, on the steps that connected the Wudang Sect from the foot of the majestic Wudang Mountain, there was Eadric Rong surrounded by

Mr. Hou Yan secretly noticed Eadric Rong's face turn excited when two hundred and fifty gold taels were returned to him as a sign that the Jinlong Umbrella Weapon was worth five hundred gold taels.Eadric Rong looked hesitant to ask what equipment he would need to make an amulet or talisman. However, Mr. Hou Yan read the hesitation in his eyes and said softly,"Young swordsman, don't be shy with me. Just tell me what you want. Hou Yan will try to fulfill your request!"There was a moment of silence. Eadric Rong was indeed a bit introverted.However, a moment later, after feeling that Mr. Hou Yan was a good person, Eadric Rong said in a low voice,"Mr. Hou Yan, do you know what equipment I should buy if I want to write a talisman?""What!" Mr. Hou Yan almost shouted.Talisman-making skills were something extremely rare. However, this youngster intends to buy equipment to write talismans?"He really is a future monster!" thought Mr. Hou Yan. He looked at Eadric Rong more deeply, with an

Eadric Rong's chest was beating fast, like a war drum beating at a fast rhythm. He was in the inner room of the Dusk Dew Shop in Tanshan City, with Mr. Hou Yan, the shop owner.That heartbeat of his resonated with a powerful aura, an aura emitted by Jinlong's strangely shaped ranking weapon—an umbrella, that's what Mr. Hou Yan said.The weapon was now displayed before his eyes, emitting an astonishing glow that was almost blinding."This Jinlong rank weapon," said Mr. Hou Yan in a tone full of appreciation, "is the masterpiece of my father, the weapon forger Hou Gang.”“His skill is undoubtedly renowned between the two mountains, Wudang and Zhonglu. “I have never even offered this weapon for sale to anyone." His face looked solemn, his eyes staring at Eadric Rong with an intensity that could almost be felt."Yet somehow, I feel this weapon suits you, young Swordsman," said Mr. Hou Yan. He ended his praise and flattery with a warm smile.However, there was something that Mr. Hou Yan d
Mr. Errol Hou's Surprise.
At dusk, Eadric Rong walked at a brisk pace through the streets of Tanshan City. His destination was Tanshan Market, where the Dusk Dew Shop was located. It was a shop that provided equipment for cultivators and had become his regular.Taking a quick look inside the market, Eadric Rong concluded. Tanshan Market at dusk was usually quiet, unlike the usual crowds in the morning and afternoon.From a distance, he sat upright on White's back, Eadric Rong looked towards the Dusk Dew Shop. There was a slightly chubby but clean-faced man, who was about to pull down the curtains and close the shop door. The man was Mr. Errol Hou, the owner of the Dusk Dew Shop.White immediately ran fast..."Wait a minute, Mr. Errol Hou," Eadric Rong shouted, his voice breaking the silence of the market. He hurried over to the shop and stood right in front of Mr. Errol Hou. "Please forgive my late arrival.""However, I have to sell all these things now. After I return to Wudang Peak, the possibility of descen

It included no less than twenty-five talismans that would be of great benefit to him in the future.While in the spiritual energy gathering technique manual, he found that the truth of the matter was that the curious female ghost in red always gathered spiritual energy from the various people she killed.Then stored it in the medicine tube that Eadric Rong found."Perhaps this is what the evil priest is looking for in me!" thought Eadric Rong as he observed the potion bottle that probably contained spiritual energy collected by the curious ghost.He found the bottle in the forest near Yunshui Pagoda when he killed the female ghost in red.After arriving at the point that all his discoveries were treasures (not counting the gold coins), Eadric Rong cultivated quietly. He sat cross-legged, eyes tightly closed, and his breathing was regular."Upon arrival at the Wudang Sect, I will train my spiritual energy, to become a spiritual expert, in addition to becoming a swordsman," he thought,
Death of Lingbao Priest - Part One.
The Lingbao priest stood tall among the towering pine trunks, like a ferocious brute ready to terrorize the opposition.The soft moonlight fell on his back, creating a shadow that looked long and mysterious, like a witch preparing to cast a spell.Horsetail whisk's mane, his signature weapon, seemed to rustle in his hand, as if responding to the wind that blew softly between the pine trunks.Its appearance seems very dramatic, like a demon that has just emerged from the darkness, creepy yet alluring.Eadric Rong, who had predicted this would happen from the moment he left Yunshui Chun Village, simply snorted coldly and made a body-relieving gesture.WUSH!With incredible speed and precision, he leapt into the Flying Over Grass - a beautiful yet fast somersault.In an instant, accompanied by a high-pitched whistling sound that broke the silence of the night, Eadric Rong's body was already on a level at a height of three meters.With the sharp, gleaming Xingyin sword in his hand, he cha

Leader Liu, with a beaming and grateful face, pointed at Eadric Rong."Last night, this valiant youngster from the Wudang Sect successfully dispatched the ghost of that curious dead woman. Therefore, this morning we have all gathered in Grandpa Shang's courtyard to pay our last respects to divine Cultivator Eadric Rong before he returns to the Wudang Sect in the North!"Hearing this explanation, the Lingbao Priest seemed to nod while stroking his long, white beard. "Siancai... siancai..." he said.But Eadric Rong's observant eyes caught a trace of anger in the form of lightning in the priest's eyes, though only for an instant.But with great ingenuity and experience, the traces of anger disappeared. Priest Lingbao's face brightened with piety. He praised Eadric Rong with the same gaze as if he were judging chickens in the market."Although he is still young, he already possesses extraordinary talent and is full of martial arts power. As the representative of the Yunshui Chun villagers
