  According to Xiang Tian's request, Zhang Cheng bit his finger again and dripped a drop of blood onto the ring. However, this time the blood was not absorbed by the ring, but instead transformed into a blood-colored glyph the moment it came into contact with the ring. The glyph looked somewhat like the Eight Trigrams, and on top of it, there was a strand of flowing light.

  After a while, a wisp of gray energy floated out from the ring. Before long, a middle-aged man who was somewhere between transparent and non-existent appeared before Zhang Cheng's eyes.

  This man was exactly the same as the one he had seen in the cave before. Zhang Cheng knew that he was Dan Mo Xie Tian.

  After Xiang Tian came out, a part of his soul power was injected into the center of the entire rune, and suddenly, the blood-colored rune seemed to be activated in an instant. A red light flashed and then merged into Xiang Tian's brow, disappearing without a trace.

  Immediately afterwards, Zhang Cheng felt the presence of Xiang Tian, and at the same time, every thought in Xiang Tian's mind could be easily known to him.

  "Alright, the master-servant contract has been signed between us. From now on, you are my master and I will assist you well as promised." Xiang Tian said respectfully.

  "You don't have to call me master, just call me by my name!" Zhang Cheng smiled with satisfaction, feeling that he had really struck gold this time.

  From this point of view, he also had to thank Hua Jing, if it wasn't for him, he wouldn't have encountered this strange encounter and obtained Xiang Tian's assistance.

  "This...alright, I'll call you by your name from now on!" Xiang Tian naturally didn't want to call Zhang Cheng "master" either, but before getting Zhang Cheng's permission, he had no choice but to do so. Otherwise, the contract would take effect and bind him, which would make him wish he were dead.

  "Heh, yeah!" Zhang Cheng finally didn't have to be on guard against Xiang Tian anymore, and the pressure in his heart also disappeared. His thoughts began to become active again, and he asked: "Xiang Tian, what is the highest level of martial art that you can use? Is there a divine-level martial art?"

  "No, the divine-level cultivation method has long been lost. The highest level I have is the immortal-level cultivation method. There are only two cultivation methods above the 8th rank, one is called 'Burning Heaven Decision', a fire-based cultivation method, which is an immortal-level 9th rank cultivation method. The other is a wood-based cultivation method, called 'Spirit Wood Cultivation', an immortal-level 8th rank cultivation method. As for other attribute cultivation methods, they are not as high, mostly around immortal-level 1st rank, with many at spirit-level 8th or 9th rank." Xiang Tian said this sentence that made Zhang Cheng excited.

  "Immortal rank nine grades!" Zhang Cheng took a deep breath, he had heard Dan Chenzi say that the highest grade of their Dan Dao Sect's "Xuan Yuan Jing" was only Immortal rank one grade, but Xiang Tian Zhang just casually mentioned two cultivation methods of Immortal rank nine grades and Immortal rank eight grades, this impact on Zhang Cheng was really too great.

  Now he thinks that this time it's really a big deal, if he masters the ninth-grade immortal technique, how cool would that be, who dares to compare with himself.

  "There's no need to make a fuss about this. In my heyday, I was considered one of the top masters in the entire cultivation world. My mastery of alchemy is unparalleled throughout history. With just one pill, many people would trade their precious immortal-level techniques with me. Unfortunately, after searching for hundreds of years, I still haven't found the legendary divine-level fire-attribute technique. Otherwise, I wouldn't have ended up like this." Xiang Tian said with a somewhat gloomy expression.

  "Right, since you're so powerful and have so many advanced skills, why did you end up in this situation? Tell me about it." Zhang Cheng said curiously.

  "Alright, I've had this on my mind for so long, talking to you about it makes me feel a bit better." Xiang Tian paused, then said: "Back then, I took in an apprentice named Chou Xi Tian. This person was extremely ambitious, and I wanted to temper his character, so I never passed down the 'Burning Heaven Technique' to him, instead only passing down a heavenly first-rate fire-based cultivation method."

  "But what I didn't expect was that he actually colluded with my sworn enemies, telling them the location and time of my tribulation crossing. Afterwards, they took advantage of my weakened state after the tribulation to launch a sneak attack on me, leaving me severely injured."

  "I'm a person who does things based on my emotions, so I've been called Dan Mo. In this life, I've killed countless people and made many enemies, including some famous masters. So, that one time brought in a lot of masters. Although I successfully passed the heavenly tribulation, due to the damage it caused to my body, I was still severely injured by them. Even though I eventually beheaded all those who ambushed me, Ou Xiao Tian managed to escape."

  "But I also exhausted my energy and injured the source of my soul, unable to continue pursuing that evil disciple. Later, in order to prevent him from obtaining my skills, I came to this place. This was once a cave where I lived when I was young, Chou Xiao Tian didn't know about it, but unexpectedly, I ended up staying here for 500 years."

  "This guy is really detestable, he doesn't even spare his own master!" Zhang Cheng suddenly paused for a moment, as if realizing something, then asked: "Wait, you just said that you successfully passed the heavenly tribulation?"

  Although Danchenzi had not told him about the tribulation before, he had read a lot of it in the past, so he connected with it.

  So when he heard that Xiang Tian had passed through the heavenly tribulation, he was somewhat shocked. This is a real immortal!

  "Not bad, the heavenly tribulation is terrifying to others, but it's not scary to me. When I crossed the tribulation, I didn't even use any magical artifacts, I just relied on my cultivation to withstand it. Although I can't say that no one will come after me, I can definitely say that there's never been anyone before me!" At this point, Xiang Tian couldn't help but feel proud of himself.

  "This is indeed!" Zhang Cheng nodded in agreement with Xiang Tian's words, after all, the heavenly tribulation was not something to be trifled with, and it was impossible to get through without using a treasure.

  "Right, I see that your soul is much larger than ordinary people. Is it the effect of your secret method?" Suddenly, Xiang Tian asked such a sentence.

  "Yes, this technique can directly cultivate the soul!" Zhang Cheng did not conceal it from Xiang Tian.

  After all, they will be together for a long time to come, and Xiang Tian is also in charge of assisting his own "important task", so the more familiar he is with his situation, the easier it is for him to help himself make a cultivation plan.

  "What? Say that again!" Upon hearing this, Xiang Tian's entire body became excited, but he was somewhat skeptical if he had misheard, so he said this sentence.

  "My cultivation method can directly cultivate the soul!" Zhang Cheng's naturally 《Mystic Great Hand Seal》, if it really had to be ranked, would absolutely be of divine level.

  After all, there is no cultivation method that can directly cultivate the soul on the entire Jingshen continent, and the soul is so important, its value can be imagined.

  So he wasn't surprised by Xiang Tian's reaction. If he was shocked, it would be a normal phenomenon. If he wasn't shocked, that would be abnormal instead.

  "Heavens! Such a technique actually exists? This is too unbelievable!" Xiang Tian exclaimed excitedly.

  He had spent most of his life searching for a way to cultivate his soul, because his alchemy was directly related to the soul. However, after hundreds of years of searching, he still had nothing to show for it.

  But in this place he encountered it, and it was controlled by an eleven or twelve year old child, which is also hard to believe.

  "What's the name of this kung fu?" Xiang Tian asked excitedly.

  "I didn't know either, but later I gave it a name, called the Great Seal of Secret Buddhism, and there are nine seals in total!" Zhang Cheng said without hiding anything.

  "Mahayana Mudra?" Xiang Tian furrowed his brow, then solemnly said: "Where did you get this from? Also, can these nine mudras really enhance the soul? This is very important, you must think carefully before speaking."

  "This tantric mudra was something I inadvertently obtained, and as for whether it can enhance the soul, it should be true, because previously I was cultivating this set of mudras, which made my soul too strong to the point of suppressing my body, almost dying. So, I'm very certain." Zhang Cheng didn't know why Xiang Tian asked like that, but he knew there must be something important.

  However, he didn't tell Xiang Tian the true origin of "Mi Zong Da Shou Yin". After all, the fact that he came from another world was too unbelievable. If he hadn't experienced it himself, he wouldn't have believed such a thing could happen either.

  "Good, good, good!" Xiang Tian did not continue to ask questions, but instead said "good" three times in a row, and then said: "It's really treading on iron filings without finding a place, getting everything is the result of hard work!"

  "What do you want to do?" Zhang Cheng was somewhat puzzled as to why he was so excited, and he had no intention of passing on the "Mi Zong Da Shou Yin" to him.
