Chapter Twenty: Golden Snake Sword

  The Temple of Ascension, Heaven... These inexplicable words left Yuan Chengzhi even more bewildered and unable to grasp the situation.

  This kind of situation, Zhao had long been prepared for it. Besides, he had already experienced it twice before. It was nothing more than repeating the fabricated lies again.

  With the experience of the first two times, Zhao Ji suddenly became more confident and his level increased significantly, leaving Yuan Chengzhi stunned and speechless on the spot.

  After a long time, Yuan Chengzhi finally came back to his senses and muttered excitedly: "Tianjie, I've actually come to Tianjie. But, heavens, did you ask for my opinion? I didn't want to come."

  After a burst of emotions, Yuan Chengzhi calmed down with difficulty. Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he turned around and looked at Zhao Ji, his eyes filled with hope: "Immortal Envoy, I have a master, brothers, wife, friends in the lower realm, all of which I am reluctant to give up. Can you send me back?"

  "No way, ascension is an irreversible process, once you're up, you can't go back down."

  Shaking his head, Zhao said faintly.

  Yuan Chengzhi was summoned by Zhao Ji, and his purpose was none other than to obtain the extraordinary lightness skill of "Shen Xing Bai Bian". Now that he has obtained it, it can be said that letting Yuan Chengzhi return is not a big deal. However, he indeed does not possess the divine ability to return goods.

  One sentence made Yuan Chengzhi fall silent, his expression filled with melancholy and sorrow, standing there motionless for a long time without speaking or moving.

  Zhao Ji was getting impatient and directly left Fei Sheng Hall to play with Zi Xing outside, occasionally helping it peel pine nuts.

  An hour later, Yuan Chengzhi finally came out of the Fei Sheng Hall. Zhao Ji hurriedly went forward and said: "Brother Yuan, please don't worry too much. Since you've come to the Heavenly Realm, it's best to look on the bright side. After all, there are many advantages to being here."

  "I know, I've troubled the fairy messenger."

  Yuan Chengzhi replied weakly and listlessly, his expression somewhat wilted.

  "No need to be so polite, and by the way, don't call me Xian Shi either. I'm still used to people calling me by my name, Zhao Ji."

  With a casual wave of his hand, Zhao said with a big smile, "This is Ding Dian, also known as Big Brother Ding, and he's also one of the Flying Ascenders."

  "Hello, I'm Ding Dian."

  "Brother Ding is well, I am Yuan Chengzhi."

  Ding Dian and Yuan Chengzhi greeted each other.

  "Yuan brother, what plans do you have for the future."

  After exchanging pleasantries with the two guests for a few moments, Zhao Ji asked again.

  He smiled wryly and said helplessly, "I'm new to the Heavenly Realm, unfamiliar with the people and land. I don't have any plans, I can only take it one step at a time."

  "If so, then why don't you follow us first and get a sense of the heavenly realm before making any decisions?"

  Zhaō Jí proposed.

  "Whatever."

  Yuan Chengzhi thought for a moment and then agreed.

  The three of them walked together towards the outside of the valley. When they passed through a forest of pine trees, they said goodbye to Zixing, and then arrived at that narrow passageway.

  "We need to crawl out of here."

  Pointing at the narrow passageway in front of him, Zhao Ji said to Yuan Chengzhi.

  "Ah, crawl out, can't this passage be expanded?"

  Yuan Chengzhi was taken aback for a moment before asking.

  "Alright, but we don't have any divine weapons, unless, Brother Yuan, you have a plan?"

  Zhao Ji smiled and glanced at Yuan Chengzhi.

  Zhao Ji knew that the long sword behind Yuan Chengzhi was probably the divine weapon Golden Snake Sword. With it, splitting stones and digging holes should be quite effortless.

  "I can give it a try."

  Yuan Chengzhi agreed to take over.

  With a "whoosh" sound, he drew out the long sword that was behind his back. Indeed, it was a treasured sword with a curved and winding body, and a forked tip, just like a snake.

  With the Golden Snake Sword in hand, Yuan Chengzhi's demeanor changed, his body filled with sharp intentions. As his wrist shook, the sword light flashed, and blocks of stone fell from the passageway.

  After a while, the entire passage was enlarged by Yuan Chengzhi in one circle, although it was not enough to let people walk upright and pass through, but it was no problem for people to pass through with their waists bent.

  Arriving on the platform, pointing downwards, Zhao Ji casually introduced: "From here all the way to the foot of the mountain, there are ropes hanging down, allowing us to easily go down. Alright, I'll go first."

  The three of them climbed down one after another, Zhao Ji and Ding Dian's performance was as usual, but Yuan Chengzhi, when descending the Flying Ascension Peak, seemed particularly formidable.

  Its body is like a big bird, flying downwards, pausing for a moment, when the falling speed is too fast, it stretches out its hand on the rope to slow down a bit, and then jumps down again.

  By this marvelous method, a distance of over 100 meters, Yuan Chengzhi had traversed in less than one minute.

  Down to the foot of the peak, looking up at the top, Yuan Chengzhi sighed: "Since ancient times, Huashan has been a path, it can be said that Huashan is steep, but Feisheng Peak is even more treacherous than Huashan, and it is worthy of being in the heavenly realm."

  "Brother Yuan, let's go, we're going to Zengjiacun."

  Calling out to Yuan Chonghui, the three of them set off together.

  The training method of Shen Xing Bai Bian flowed through his mind, and in the process of rushing forward, Zhao Ji tried to display Shen Xing Bai Bian.

  The practice of Qigong is much safer and easier than Neigong. Zhao Ji practiced it on the road without any problems, as long as he didn't circulate his Qi through the meridians, he wouldn't be injured.

  After a few attempts, Zhao Ji's footsteps gradually showed some signs of the divine movement, which surprised Yuan Chengzhi and asked: "Zhao Ji, are you using the divine movement?"

  "Not bad."

  While exerting his utmost efforts in displaying his divine speed and agility, Zhao Ji said.

  "May I be so bold as to ask, where did you learn this martial art from?"

  Yuan Chengzhi's eyebrows rose, and he asked in pursuit.

  "Of course, if it can't be said, then forget it."

  "There's nothing that can't be said. As a Flying Ascension Escort Envoy, I can gain some benefits, which is to automatically learn one of the flying ascender's martial skills."

  Zhao said with a faint smile.

  "So it was."

  Yuan Chengzhi was stunned, followed by an inexpressible silence.

  His own martial arts, mysteriously leaked out, if in the lower realm, that would be a serious offense against the Wulin code of conduct, but this is the heavenly realm, Yuan Chengzhi also didn't know what to say, and could only remain silent.

  The time it took to return to Zengjia Village was shorter than when I came, thanks to Zhao Ji's Shen Xing Bai Bian entering the door, and the running speed was much faster.

  "Dad, come out quickly, Uncle is back."

  "Uncle is back, uncle is back."

  As soon as the three returned to Zengjiacun Village, they were spotted by a group of children playing in the village. Da Gouzi and Er Gouzi were taken aback and shouted loudly at the same time, rushing towards their home.

  The loud voices of the two little ones startled everyone in the village, and in the blink of an eye, led by Zeng Yu, more than a dozen villagers came to greet them.
