Sovereign To Immortality Chapter 29

C29: Mural

Several miles away on the ridge, Yang Junshan was holding the cub tiger as he stared at the cove, the youths were peeling of the skin of the two giant beasts,cutting meat.The cub tiger had just been born, although it couldn't see what was happening a few miles away, it still could feel what was happening in the cove.

The cub tiger was making a loud wailing, which made Yang Junshan very sad,he wanted to forcefully take it away several times, but the cub desperately tried to stay. Fortunately, although it was empty in the ridge, the cub's cries did not reach far, and Yang Junshan was not afraid of being discovered.

After the fire was ignited in the cove and burned the remaining useless pieces of the two beasts into ashes, the cub finally quieted down in Yang Junshan's arms, perhaps because it was too tired.

It was already late in the day, so Zhang Yueming and the others rested in the cove for the night. On the second day, Zhang Yueming seemed to have guessed the reason why the Mountain-riding Tiger came to the cove, so he began to search around the cove.

Not long after the youths left the cove, Yang Junshan brought the cub back into the cove, burying the mountain seated tiger in the ashes. With a big stone as a marker, the cub once again started wailing in front of the stone.

If not for the b.u.t.terfly mark in the hands of Yang Junshan and Zhang Yueming earlier, it would not have been easy to find this place. Now that Zhang Yueming and the others had finished searching here, it was unlikely that they would return here. This valley was a perfect hiding place for Yang Junshan to hide for the next few days.

Holding the cub in his arms, he returned to the stone platform's lair, cleaning up the filth inside, and using the hay to make a comfortable cus.h.i.+on for the cub. Only then did Yang Junshan arrive at a stone wall on the west side of the cave.

A faint and peculiar aura originated from this stone wall. Previously, when the Mountain-Seating Tiger rested in the cave, it was also in front of this stone wall. This stone wall was where the demonic aura came from, and it was also the reason why the Mountain-Seizing Tiger and the cubs were gradually demonized and their intelligence awakened.

The stone wall was about ten feet tall, and there were countless cracks on it. Perhaps it was because of the growth of the roots outside the cave, but the cracks were filled with soil, and because of the seepage in the afternoon, there were many mud stains on the stone wall.

However, if someone were to carefully observe, they would discover that on the top of the stone wall, there were also mud stains due to water seepage. However, there were no cracks that appeared on the stone wall that were filled with mud.

Looking at the stone wall in front of him, Yang Junshan laughed complacently. There was even a trace of excitement on his face as he grabbed a leaf to wipe off the mud stains on the wall.

Following the rustling of dried mud stains, a simple yet lifelike mountain seated tiger appeared on the stone wall. This mountain seated tiger's eyes were furious, its mouth half open, its forelimbs slightly bent, its body slightly tilting back, as if it was ready to attack its prey at any time, and it was like a fierce tiger descending down the mountain!

Yang Junshan continued to clean up the mud stains on the stone wall, and after this map, three different figures of the Lord of the Mountains' murals were swept out, although these four murals were different, but each of the Lord of the Mountains had a ferocious and devouring look on their faces, as if the Lord of the Mountains was about to pounce on them at any moment.

Yang Junshan continued cleaning up the mud stains on the walls. Below the four murals, four more pictures of mountain kings were quickly revealed. These four pictures were different from the four on top: although the four pictures were different, Shan Jun's expression was rather similar, with aggressive attacking posture. The four pictures below were also different, but they were all retracted. However, there was an imposing manner that looked down on all living things, causing people to be filled with reverence and admiration.

There were two types of diagrams on the map, each with four diagrams. When Yang Junshan saw them in the cave, the impact it gave Yang Junshan was even greater than the impact he received from a Superior Grade immortal bear gall bladder.

From the perspective of the hundred year Martial Cultivators in Yang Junshan's previous life, the Eight Mounts Monarch Diagram was actually an extremely profound body tempering technique. Although Yang Junshan had never seen a top grade body tempering technique in his previous life, he knew a middle grade body tempering technique, "Lying Fist". In front of him, Yang Junshan could easily see that the eight sets of diagrams were actually superior to the "Lying Fist", and not a top grade body tempering technique.

Although these eight body refining diagrams depicted mountains, they were in fact capable of being cultivated by humans and demons. After all, a demon's body would eventually transform into a human, so the body refining secret techniques between humans and demons were basically all interconnected. In fact, the body refining secret techniques created by humans would often also imitate the movements of some tyrannical beasts, such as Raging Ox Fist.

The body was like a large water tank, and the cultivator's cultivation base was like water in a water tank. What the cultivator's cultivation base could achieve depended not only on the size of the water tank, but also on the toughness of the water tank. Otherwise, once the tank burst, everything would naturally stop.

Therefore, regardless of rank, a body refining secret technique was an extremely valuable existence in the cultivation world. A low-rank body refining secret technique like the Mang Ox Fist could already be considered priceless.

Even after a few decades, when the world had changed greatly, the various sects and clans had no choice but to start interacting with each other due to the pressure of the situation. A large portion of the techniques, techniques, divine abilities, and secret techniques all went to the cultivation world, just like Yang Junshan, who was a high level martial artist at the time, was lucky enough to get a mid-grade Earth Fist Art.

According to Yang Junshan's knowledge, there was only one set of body refining secret arts in the entire Yu County, and the training conditions were extremely harsh. Even so, the entire Heaven-Shaking Sect regarded this secret art as a precious treasure.

From this, one could see how important a high quality body refining secret technique was to cultivators!

In his previous life, heaven and earth had undergone a great change. Rumors had it that after some powerful demon beasts were killed by cultivators, they would often be able to find some secret techniques or rare treasures that could aid in the cultivation of demon beasts in their lair.

These secret arts and treasures' inheritances often appeared to be extremely mysterious. Even if those Demonic Beasts had taken human form, they would often become Demonic cultivators without saying a word about it, becoming a major suspense in the cultivation world.

However, Yang Junshan understood that the powerful demonic cultivators with mysterious inheritances were the first to rise up after the great change in the world. Thus, when Yang Junshan discovered that Mountain-Seizing Tiger's body was suffused with a demonic aura, he guessed that the mountain seated tiger should have been one of the demonic beasts that first gained the mysterious inheritance and opened up their intelligence, if his guess was correct. Then, was there a mysterious secret art inheritance in this mountain seated tiger's lair as well?

However, Yang Junshan did not remember any tyrannical demonic cultivators from his previous life in Meng Yu County who were called Mountain-Bearing Tigers, which made him slightly disappointed. However, thinking about the battle between the two beasts in the cove, if Yang Junshan had not helped, the Mountain-Sitting Tiger would have died in the hands of the Earth-Stepping Bear, which meant that this Mountain-Riding Tiger might have died before it became a demonic cultivator, and the cub would have lost its mother's protection and care. Even if they didn't starve to death in their lair, they would still be hunted by other Vicious Beasts and wouldn't grow into powerful demonic cultivators. In this way, it was possible that the mysterious inheritance would appear in this mountain seated tiger's lair.

In fact, Yang Junshan's conjecture was true. In the cave of the mountain seated tiger, the appearance of a top grade body tempering technique made Yang Junshan momentarily unable to believe it.

After the initial excitement, Yang Junshan quickly calmed down. He understood what kind of huge waves this body refining secret technique would cause in the cultivation world, but he was surprised that the things here weren't discovered by the mountain guarding cultivators of the Heaven-Shaking Sect.

However, he immediately thought of Zhang Yueming and the others, who had been temporarily lured away by Su Baozhang. Once they discovered Su Baozhang's intentions, Zhang Yueming and the others would definitely return, and after using the b.u.t.terfly Trace Talisman again, they would soon find the cove. At that time, they would definitely search the entire valley, and the mountain seated tiger's lair would definitely be found by the teenagers.

How should he hide these eight diagrams? Yang Junshan had wanted to carve these eight diagrams down the stone walls, but he didn't have any tool in his hands. Even if he did, how could he carry them out of the enclosure?

At this time, Yang Junshan noticed the mud stains due to water seepage into the crevices below the stone wall. He used the kettle to mix some mud onto the wall, and indeed, the teenagers didn't find anything after entering the cave.

However, this time it was because Yang Junshan had hidden the mural, then in his previous life, why hadn't he heard that Zhang Yue had mastered this body tempering secret technique, but because it didn't conform to the training conditions of the high level body refining technique pa.s.sed down in the Heaven-Shaking Sect. In the end, Zhang Yueming had no choice but to practice a medium level body tempering technique?

The only possibility was that Zhang Yueming didn't find this cave. Perhaps it was because after the mountain seated tiger was killed, the corpse was taken away by the Earth Bear or simply eaten by it, so when Zhang Yueming chased to the cove, he only a.s.sumed that the mountain seated tiger had once pa.s.sed by this place.

After everything had been settled, Yang Junshan could finally relax and take this cave as a training ground for the next few days.

There were only five days left before the Hundred Sparrow Mountain encampment closed. Yang Junshan, who had already obtained two high-grade and three intermediate grade fairies, was convinced that there was no better spirit in the Hundred Sparrow Mountain than this. Instead of taking risks to find some low-grade fairies, he might as well hide in this cave and wait for the hunt to end.

Not to mention the fact that the young man who partic.i.p.ated in the Immortal Spirit Hunting would definitely be secretly investigated by the Heaven-Shaking Sect's mountain guarding cultivators, Yang Junshan could not hide anything from the three Warrior Realm Cultivators, much less believe that the mountain guarding cultivators of the Heaven-Shaking Sect would actually see five immortal souls, including two high-grade and a pair of medium-grade fairies, being taken away by an unknown twelve-year-old youth who could only partic.i.p.ate in the third round of the hunt.
