Transcending Heavens: Starting with the Ancient Tomb Sect

Chapter 166 Pure and Immaculate

"Not only did you hurt us with your words, you also hurt Brother Eagle!"

"Is this a human being?"

Xiaolongnu and Li Mochou, the two fellow disciples, remained seated, while Yue Que half-squatted in front of the pinned Yin Kexi, pointing sorrowfully at the Divine Condor behind them and lamenting, "Look—."

Yin Kexi dared not move. The sharp edge of the willow-leaf knife on his cheek was menacing, and the two long swords at his neck made him subconsciously get goosebumps. Meanwhile, someone behind him kept poking him with silver needles.

Pain, fear, terror—they didn't even dare to utter a sound.

Looking up, Yin Kexi saw the divine eagle standing there listlessly and sickly, its wings drooping, giving the impression that it had been heartbroken.

Brother Diao is very impressive; he demonstrated the symptoms of love poison he experienced after being poisoned by the Love Flower Thorn.

This scene almost made Yin Kexi hallucinate, as if the person standing there was not an eagle, but a human being.

He could even see the feeling of unbearable pain in the Divine Eagle.

This further confirms that this is indeed a divinely bestowed eagle.

So Yin Kexi was scammed?

Feeling another needle prick in his back, Yin Kexi, forcibly enduring the pain, cautiously asked, "So, what do you all want?"

"I'll give you anything that's mine."

Yin Kexi displayed his businessman's traits to the fullest, and at this moment he understood why Nemo Xing had never mentioned this before. His actions just now were undoubtedly an impulsive decision made in the heat of the moment when he was blinded by greed.

As for whether the other party would dare not kill him, Yin Kexi did not think that the other party would have too many concerns at this moment.

But once the words are spoken, there's no going back.

Yin Kexi only wished he could turn back time and strangle his past self.

"What do you have?" Yue Que asked.

"I have money!" Yin Kexi replied.

"How rich?" Yue Que scoffed, speaking with an air of great pride, "We plundered millions of taels of silver from the Southern Song treasury!"

Do you have it?

"Don't believe me? You can go to the Song Dynasty and ask around if you have the chance." Yue Que felt that exaggerating such a large number was already enough.

As for the fact that everyone knew from Gongsun Zhi that the treasury had reached ten million taels of silver, to be honest, apart from Gongsun Zhi, who had never seen much of the world and had always stayed in the Valley of Heartbreak, how many people actually believed it?

As a Persian merchant, you can't possibly believe this, can you?

However, the truth is just as surprising.

Yin Kexi believed it.

Because of the Silk Road, he, far away in Persia, had always longed for the Central Plains.

It is said that the place is covered in gold and silver.

The Mongols' desire to conquer the Southern Song Dynasty was not without reason.

"no."

At this moment, Yin Kexi felt like a country bumpkin from a small town who had never seen much of the world. He lowered his head with great self-consciousness as he said this.

Then Yin Kexi looked up at Yue Que and said seriously, "I can redeem myself with something else."

Even though everyone was stunned by this, how could anyone believe it?

"oh?"

Yue Que became interested and asked, "Tell me, what is it that you care about so much?" Yue Que gave his junior sister Gongsun Lü'e a look, indicating that she didn't need to continue playing the role of Rong Momo.

Feeling the stabbing motion behind him stop, Yin Kexi breathed a sigh of relief and then whispered, "Have you ever heard of Manichaeism?"

"???"

Xiaolongnu was taken aback; she had never heard of this sect before.

In fact, Xiaolongnu hadn't heard of many things, and she only passively learned about things she wasn't particularly interested in.

Hong Lingbo and Lu Wushuang were also unaware of this.

Li Mochou, the Red Serpent Fairy, seemed lost in thought.

Yelü Yan and Wanyan Ping, two former royal descendants, realized what was happening.

"The Ming Cult?" the Red Serpent Fairy asked, somewhat uncertainly.

"???"

This puzzled Yin Kexi, who asked, "How come they're also present in the Central Plains?"

"If it's them, then the problem is serious." Seeing that her junior sister was still confused, Li Mochou explained softly to Xiaolongnu.

He said, "The Nine Yin Manual originated from the Ming Cult."

"Many of the martial arts techniques on this page were specifically designed by Huang Chang to counter the Ming Cult."

"Just like how our Ancient Tomb Sect targets the Quanzhen Sect."

"But the relationship between those two is even more ruthless than that between the Ancient Tomb Sect and the Quanzhen Sect."

The Red Serpent Fairy would trace the origin of a martial art, but Little Dragon Girl, as her junior sister, was not as interested in this as her senior sister; she cared more about the martial arts itself.

"Yin Kexi, what are you doing here with Timothy?" Yue Que was now quite interested in Yin Kexi's thoughts.

"They have money and incredible martial arts skills!"

When Yin Kexi spoke of this, his eyes gleamed, and that greed still emanated from his body even after he had become a prisoner.

"?"

Yin Kexi's behavior surprised everyone in the ancient tomb; this posture seemed very familiar.

Then Yin Kexi continued, "I've heard that there's a supreme divine skill in Manichaeism that can unlock the human body's hidden treasures. Whoever obtains it will surely become invincible."

"So, Yin Kexi, your true purpose in following the Fourth Prince Kublai Khan is—"

"Peerless martial arts skills, countless riches, and the chance to become stronger."

At this moment, Yin Kexi's greed was uncontrollable; it was something ingrained in a businessman's bones: "I want to cooperate with you!"

"With the Fourth Prince, you, and our four top masters, we can use the army of the Golden Saber Prince Consort Guo Jing to completely wipe out those guys and snatch back their secret manuals."

Talent!

After hearing Yin Kexi's purpose, Yue Que couldn't help but sigh.

Having witnessed the utter lack of principles within a family of civil officials, I now see in Yin Kexi what boundless greed truly means.

"Unfortunately, the previous attacks were unsuccessful and were completely blocked by the assassins of the Manichaeism."

"Many generals were assassinated, which caused the attack to come to nothing."

At this point, Yin Kexi suddenly said happily, "Now that the Golden Knife Prince Consort has returned to the desert, we will have another opportunity."

Using a large army to plunder, Yin Kexi, you're really something!

Yue Que gave Yin Kexi a thumbs-up, and he felt that Yin Kexi might be trying to steal more than just this; it was probably something else entirely.

The whole of Persia.

After all, he was the kind of guy who wanted to buy the Condor Heroes as soon as he saw it, and in the original story, he also wanted Yang Guo's Xuan Tie Heavy Sword. Later, he even led Xiao Xiangzi to steal the Nine Yang Divine Skill from Shaolin Temple.

This truly embodies the extreme nature of greed.

If Yin Kexi knew the location of the Nine Yin Manual, he might be bold enough to attack the Five Greats.

Yue Que realized that this guy was planning to use his group from the Ancient Tomb as Xiao Xiangzi, right?

Yue Que rubbed his chin, feeling as if he had suddenly had an inspiration. Robbery skills were indeed the best for the military.

Can I use this in the future?

At this moment, Yue Que discovered a new use for his junior brother Yang Guo, and thought he could try it out if given the chance.

Seeing the crowd staring at each other in silence, Yin Kexi thought the Manichaean temptation wasn't enough. So he rolled his eyes, glanced around, and then cautiously said, "If Manichaeism doesn't work, we can instigate the Golden Knife Prince Consort to take action against Dharma King Phagpa."

Yin Kexi's words surprised everyone present.

"I don't care how many people died within the Sakya sect." Meeting the surprised gazes of the crowd, Yin Kexi grinned and said, "I'm also very interested in the Sakya sect's initiation and reincarnation system."

"For the young monk Phagpa to achieve this level, wouldn't you say it's a kind of unorthodox method of achieving immortality?"

"Don't you want it?"

"I want it!"

Who wouldn't want to live a long and healthy life?

It's not just Taoism that pursues this; although it may not be as systematic as Taoism, it's just as good in some aspects.

Yin Kexi didn't believe in this before, but the initiation and reincarnation in Tantric Buddhism made Yin Kexi see a possibility.

Yue Que did not accept Yin Kexi's invitation and urging. Instead, he suddenly turned to Hong Lingbo, who was standing behind Yin Kexi and holding him hostage with two swords, and said, "Senior Sister, now it's your turn!"

"???" Yin Kexi was completely baffled by what he heard.

Immediately, Yin Kexi saw Hong Lingbo sheath the two swords at his neck, walk up to Yin Kexi, half-squat down, grab Yin Kexi's noodles with both hands, and say to him, "Yin Kexi, open your eyes wide and look at me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Soul Transfer Technique from the Nine Yin Manual was used.

As the eldest disciple, Hong Lingbo couldn't use the Soul Transfer Technique as skillfully as her master, uncle, and junior brother. She could only resort to this clumsy method, saying, "Tell me everything you know about Dharma King Phagpa!"

aside.

Gongsun Lü'e, who had long since stopped pricking people, had taken out paper and pen and began to write down everything Yin Kexi had said.

After Hong Lingbo finished, it was Lu Wushuang's turn to take over.

Hong Lingbo reached out and held Yin Kexi's head still, then began to perform the Soul Transfer Technique. Unlike her senior sister Hong Lingbo's question, Lu Wushuang asked a different one: "Tell me the details of the Manichaeism's secret technique for unlocking the human body's treasures, as well as information about the Manichaeism itself."

In order to become stronger and improve his own aptitude, Lu Wushuang would not let go of any opportunity.

After Lu Wushuang finished asking her questions, Gongsun Lü'e took over.

As for how to write this task, that fell to Lu Wushuang.

However, compared to her two senior sisters, Gongsun Lü'e's skill level was much lower because she hadn't studied for as long.

With the help of my senior brother and two senior sisters, there wasn't much of a problem.

Gongsun Lü'e's question was simple yet complex, as she inquired about the general situation in Persia.

Yelü Yan and Wanyan Ping also wanted to give it a try, but unfortunately, they hadn't been practicing in this area for very long. Wanyan Ping, in particular, had only recently begun to grasp the basics with Yelü Yan's help.

The Soul Transfer Technique was still a bit too far-fetched for Wanyan Ping.

Yelü Yan, on the other hand, was conducting in-depth research on the Great Subduing Demon Fist.

The two women, lacking energy, were only briefly tempted before giving up.

After asking her questions, Gongsun Lü'e stood up and sighed, "What do you think would happen if a flower thief learned the Soul Transfer Technique?"

These words immediately drew everyone's attention.

Senior Sister Hong Lingbo thought about it carefully for a moment, then continued, "I'm afraid he won't be able to sleep in all that. That would be too much to ask!"

Lu Wushuang: "————I'm not the Yellow Emperor, who had three thousand women. That's a myth."

While Yelü Yan and Wanyan Ping were in a daze, the two sisters often felt unable to join in the conversations of their three senior sisters because they couldn't keep up with their senior sister Gongsun Lü'e's train of thought.

The Red Serpent Fairy and Little Dragon Girl looked at each other and saw disdain in each other's eyes.

These five women are now useless.

Putting aside the first three, the last two younger ones don't seem very smart either.

The Ancient Tomb Sect has indeed seen a gradual decline in its standards when it comes to accepting disciples.

Then, the two sisters' gazes fell on Yue Que at the same time.

Why are you looking at me?

Doesn't the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra possess this ability?

I'm the victim here!

Yue Que rolled his eyes at the two women, then ignored them and took over his junior sister Gongsun Lü'e's work, continuing to perform the Soul Transfer Technique on Yin Kexi.

The soul-shifting technique began the moment Yin Kexi was captured and the two began their conversation.

Yue Que has now mastered the Soul Transfer Technique to the point that it has become a passive skill, which is a consequence of his own experiences.

Now that even the Buddhist sect is eyeing him covetously, Yue Que feels that the world is still very dangerous.

When boys are out and about, they need to protect themselves.

This statement is true and valid.

When Yin Kexi came to his senses, he forgot a lot of things. He only remembered that he had been too rude and that after becoming a prisoner, he had promised to do something before he was released.

That was to teach Persian seriously and in detail.

According to Jin Tong, the reason why this one incident could be resolved was because of the Fourth Prince Kublai Khan's influence; otherwise, how could the conflict have been resolved so easily?

With a long sigh, Yin Kexi got up from the ground and nodded awkwardly to everyone before starting to teach in a proper manner.

After an afternoon of instruction in Persian, Iksi bowed and left.

Moreover, before leaving, he generously left behind several jewels as an apology.

No wonder he was a Persian merchant who could inlay jewels on his whip.

As for his own weapon, the Gemstone Golden Dragon Whip, Yin Kexi couldn't bear to part with it; he couldn't do what the great monk Darba did.

Watching Yin Kexi leave, Wanyan Ping asked, "Senior brother, won't that make the Dharma King Phagpa notice?" According to the other members of the sect, the Dharma King Phagpa is a reincarnated "old monster" with unique abilities in the path of gods.

"This was something your master and I deliberately did for Phagpa."

It was Little Dragon Girl who spoke. She held the gem in her hands, examined it for a moment, and explained, "This is from our Ancient Tomb Demoness."

warn!"

Yin Kexi told Dharma King Phagpa that this was a warning exclusively given by the Ancient Tomb Demoness.

If you want a golden boy, you have to get past them.

Yelü Yan clicked her tongue upon hearing this, as if it was her senior brother Yue Que who had been using this soul-shifting technique just now.

However, neither the master nor the uncle made any use of it.

They're the two of them who took the blame for this soul-shifting technique, so Senior Brother Yue is the innocent one!

Ha ha!

Yelü Yan burst out laughing at the sight.
