Chapter 924 – Receiving
After Yang Junshan and the others sneaked into Maple County, they turned north, trying their best to not alert Ling Yizong of his presence. They quickly headed in the direction of the Yuzhou.
However, just as the four of them were about to enter the Yang County, Yang Junshan suddenly stopped.
The other three people were confused, Yang Junhao turned and asked: “Fourth brother, what’s wrong? Why aren’t you leaving?”
Yang Junshan’s gaze wandered a little, and upon hearing Yang Junhao’s question, he curiously glanced at Sang Shener who was beside Yang Junhao, and said: “There’s no need to be in sucush to leave. The injuries within sister-in-law’s body have not yet healed.
“But …” Yang Junhao was still a little worried.
“It’s fine, Ling Yizong’s people shouldn’t be chasing them.”
Yang Junshan seemed unsure, but his tone was very sure.
Yang Junhao wanted to ask more, but he was pulled by the sleeves by Sang Shener, who was behind him, and asked: Four of you, what should we do next?
Yang Junshan laughed, and said: “You guys go ahead, I still have some matters to take care of!”
After sending off Yang Junhao and the other two, Yang Junshan sat cross-legged on top of the treetop with his eyes closed, facing the direction that everyone had come from, as if he was waiting for something.
After about half an incense worth of time, Yang Junshan suddenly felt that feeling of being watched by someone else again, his eyelids jumped, Yang Junshan’s eyes were as cold as snow!
A human silhouette was suddenly caught by Yang Junshan, but he seemed to be an extremely powerful being, the moment Yang Junshan saw his true body, he had sensed it, and disappeared from Yang Junshan’s sight in a flash.
“So it’s Dianthus, no wonder!”
A gentle voice came from the void.
Yang Junshan stood up from the treetop, and the branch that supported his body under his feet was only a branch that was not thicker than a chopstick.
“May I know which senior follows you as an escort? This junior Yuzhou Yang Junshan greets you!”
Yang Junshan said loudly towards the direction of the voice, his tone neither servile nor overbearing.
“Ai, why do you think that the person my daughter has her eyes on is that little fool who only knows how to play with fire and not you?”
Following the fall of his words, an extremely youthful looking cultivator appeared out of thin air several tens of meters in front of Yang Junshan.
“Daughter?”
Yang Junshan was slightly stunned, he had naturally guessed who the other party was talking about at the first possible moment, but this news was too unbelievable, it couldn’t be Sang Gensheng, right?
The person seemed to have already expected Yang Junshan’s astonishment, he smiled and nodded, then said: “I am Sang Wuji, Mu Er’s biological father!”
Regarding this, Yang Junshan did not reveal much astonishment or disbelief. Instead, he muttered to himself, “Senior, how can I prove it? And why didn’t he appear to meet his sister-in-law and the others? ”
Sang Wuji asked with some curiosity: “You don’t seem surprised that this old man has come back to life?”
Yang Junshan suddenly laughed: “At least senior does not have any ill intentions, right? “The juniors from the Huai Huai County’s canyon have noticed people’s gazes. Along the way, we headed north. Senior’s gaze would occasionally appear behind us. If there really is any ill intent, we wouldn’t have waited until now.”
Sang Wuji declined to comment and asked: “How do you think this old man should prove his identity?”
Yang Junshan laughed and said: “I have heard of it from a senior before. As the inheritor of the bloodline of the Tiancheng, if it really is in the face of Senior Sang Wuji, then I naturally know of the Precious Techniques and Divine Powers Heaven Constitution Finger that was passed down through the bloodline of the constitutional Taoist.”
Sang Wuji couldn’t help but become a little interested when he heard that, and said: “Oh, I wonder if that senior of yours had told you in detail about the phenomenon of the Heaven Ghastly Finger skill? “Otherwise, if I point out and you don’t recognize me, how will you prove my identity?”
Yang Junshan said with confidence: “Junior has also trained in the Stone Element Finger and Earth Steel, and obtained a bit of the Spirit Finger’s legacy from the secret trove left behind by Senior Sang, although I do not have the Sky Constitution Finger’s inheritance Superclass, but according to the proof of these three extension abilities, I think it will be very easy.”
When Sang Wuji heard this, he said meaningfully, “It seems like you are also targeting this old man’s Heaven Constitution Finger technique!”
However, Yang Junshan did not deny it and said: “Previously, this junior did not know that senior had not fallen, but the heaven’s constitution and divine abilities had the ability to point at the heavens, and was ranked twelve on the Precious Techniques and Divine Powers Ranking. Let alone this junior being tempted, who would not be moved if they saw it?”
“Kid, you sure are open and upright!”
Sang Wuji sized Yang Junshan up from head to toe, and even nodded his head. No one knew what kind of thoughts were going through his mind, but it gave Yang Junshan a bad feeling.
“The ability to depict the heavens and the earth. The Heaven’s Constitution Finger is truly worthy of its name. Watch carefully!”
Sang Wuji suddenly bellowed: “Destroy!”
Yang Junshan looked in the direction that Sang Wuji’s finger pointed at, but he did not feel any hint of spirit energy fluctuations nor did he sense any spatial fluctuations from it, nor did he sense any sort of accompanying legendary phenomenon. However, just as his finger pointed towards a large tree several tens of meters away, he saw that the tree, which had been growing for at least two or three hundred years, had started to wither in an instant. Countless leaves rustled and fell.
“Is this … seizing the chance to live?”
How was this just stealing life? It was clear that in just a short moment, the large tree had experienced the entire process of death, drying up, decay, and decay, making it seem more likype of time quickly flowing. Sang Wuji’s finger seemed like it wasn’t very powerful, as though many other abilities could accomplish this feat as well, but the things that his finger had displayed were definitely not things that other abilities could compare to.
Sang Wuji laughed: “The cultivation world possesses more than one divine ability, such as the Precious Techniques and Divine Powers Red Dawn Golden Light Technique, the Life Severing Slash, the Dao Techniques and Divine Powers, the Blade of Time, the Ku Rong Life and Death Art, and so on. However, most of these divine abilities can seize life, but it’s difficult to determine life and death.
Yang Junshan was still immersed in the might of the finger, seeing that, he laughed and asked: “How, does this count as proof of my identity?”
Yang Junshan did not answer the question, and said: “The might of one finger, is actually as strong as the word ‘a(chǎn)s’, but Heaven’s Constitution Finger is merely a Precious Techniques and Divine Powers?”
Sang Wuji similarly did not answer the question, and said: “Since you have already obtained the three Spirit Extending Techniques of the Heaven Constitution Finger, then do you want to obtain the complete Inheritance Superclass?”
When Yang Junshan heard this, his spirit shook, and he suddenly turned his head, and said: “According to what I know, the Tiancheng’s inheritance has always been inherited by a single branch, furthermore, if senior had the heart to pass it on, why didn’t you pass it on to your own daughter?”
“Rules are dead, but people are alive. Now, this old man is the only successor to the Tiancheng, so I will decide what to do with him!” “As for Mo’er, her cultivation is still not high enough, I’m afraid she won’t be able to make it in time. Besides, I don’t want her to know that I’m still alive, or else I wouldn’t have hidden my tracks and not seen her.”
Yang Junshan’s heart was moved, he did not know what Sang Wuji meant by ‘unable to catch up’, but he did not ask, and instead asked: “Since that’s the case, then what should this junior do?”
Sang Wuji nodded his head in praise, and said: “Help this old man head overseas, and this old man will pass on the inheritance of the Heaven’s Constitution Finger to you.”
“Overseas?”
Yang Junshan asked doubtfully.
Sang Wuji’s expression revealed a tinge of reminiscence, and he said slowly: “The Tiancheng is about to open again!”
Yang Junshan was startled, then said: “Why doesn’t Senior go by yourself? Moreover, as the successor of the Tiancheng, Senior has a lot of convenience compared to junior.”
Sang Wuji did not answer Yang Junshan’s question but said instead, “In the opening of Tiancheng this time, I’m afraid there will be competition from many powers, and there will also be participation from other forces. However, this old man can first pass down the general principles of the Heaven Constitution Finger to you.”
Sang Wuji was unwilling to answer, hence Yang Junshan did not continue the question, and changed the topic: “This junior has injured two of Ling Yizong’s Successor Disciples, I’m afraid Ling Yizong will not let this matter rest.”
Sang Wuji laughed when he heard it: “Brat, do you really think that you can escape from my pursuit if you change directions? Ling Yizong’s power in the Sangzhou far surpasses your imagination! Don’t worry, since this old man has already appeared, Ling Yizong’s Dao Realm cultivators will not focus on your Madame Yang, such a small power. ”
Only then did Yang Junshan sincerely bow to Sang Wuji, and said: “Thank you senior for your assistance. This junior is willing to go overseas once, but I wonder what kind of things Senior wishes this junior to go to Tiancheng to find?”
Sang Wuji said: “A record, or to be exact, it is a map fragment. Back then, when I luckily entered the Tiancheng, I only received the inheritance left behind by the Daoist of the Constitution, the rest were not able to take care of it, but this old man once saw a map fragment in the Tiancheng, its name is’ Record of the Lung ‘, and after many years, I believe that the map fragment is still in the Tiancheng.”
“A picture record of the five viscera?”
Yang Junshan blurted out in shock.
Sang Wuji said in surprise: “So you also knew about this inheritance, and it was that senior of yours who also told you about it? If you can take this map out, you can naturally train in the secret arts written on it, the importance of strengthening your body, as well as the difficulty of strengthening your organs. I believe you should know about it by now. ”
Yang Junshan laughed bitterly: “Looks like this junior has no choice but to go on this trip!”
“That’s for the best!”
Sang Wuji nodded his head in satisfaction, and handed a photo-inheritance bead over to Yang Junshan, and said: “Brat, make the best use of your time to raise your own cultivation, this cultivation world is about to enter into a storm that will sweep across heaven and earth. Compared to this storm, the foreign forces’ invasion is only an appetizer, maybe you will also have the chance to participate in this rare event!”
After he finished speaking, Sang Wuji’s originally several tens of meters away figure started to gradually fade like an illusion. From start to finish, Yang Junshan still did not detect the slightest hint of spirit energy fluctuations.
