Cao Cao's soul transmigrates into Murong Fu's body

Azi's martial arts talent is actually quite high, and she has been exposed to many martial arts techniques at the Xingxiu Sect.

However, it was a mixed bag and not pure, so Azi always wanted to learn top-level martial arts, which is why she stole the Divine Wood King Cauldron to cultivate the Dissolving Power Technique.

Now that she has obtained the Northern Darkness Divine Skill, the more Azi studies it, the more she feels the wonder of this martial art.

This was a peerless martial art that even his master didn't know, yet Murong Fu taught it to him without any concealment.

Her own sister was also willing to serve as a servant. Although Azi had never met Azhu, she understood that the young master of the Murong family truly cared for the sisters.

Ah Zi's personality is such that if you treat me well, I'll treat you even better; if you treat me badly, I'll poison you!

Azi had a very distinct personality, and Cao Cao was well aware of this.

Therefore, passing on the incomplete Northern Darkness Divine Art to A Zi was also to enable her to truly integrate the Dissolving Power Technique.

Moreover, now that the Divine Wood King Cauldron has been stolen, saying that it should be returned is just an excuse.

In Cao Cao's eyes, this Star Constellation Monster was also someone who could be used; the enemy of my enemy is my friend.

Cao Cao's strategy of forming alliances was always effective, and besides, he had some connection with Ding Qiuchun, or rather, Murong Fu and Ding Qiuchun were related.

Of course, this was also a secret of the Wang family of Gusu, but Cao Cao, who came from an intelligence background, had already found out about the Wang family's secret along the way.

"Regardless of whether Ding Chunqiu is my aunt's biological father or her so-called godfather, my aunt still respects Ding Chunqiu, so she still has to give face to the Wang family of Gusu."

Cao Cao only needed to casually reveal his own secrets and observe Ding Chunqiu's reaction.

Therefore, whether or not the Divine Wood King Cauldron is still there is no important matter. With Ding Chunqiu's current cultivation level of the Huagong Dafa, it is irrelevant whether or not the Divine Wood King Cauldron assists in his cultivation.

Just by looking at Ding Chunqiu's reaction, one can determine the enemy-friend relationship between them.

If we can win over Ding Chunqiu as soon as possible, it will be beneficial for the upcoming Heroes' Gathering.

After all, this means having another potential ally. It's worth noting that while the theme of this Heroes' Gathering is supposedly to discuss how to eliminate the scoundrel Xiao Feng, it also has the intention of electing a leader of the martial arts world.

This is also why sects from outside the Central Plains, such as those from the Western Regions and Tibet, gathered at Shaoshi Mountain; the allure of becoming the leader of the martial arts alliance is quite considerable.

"My lord, shall we go catch some poisonous insects, snakes, and ants tonight to practice our skills?"

With Murong Fu as her protector, A Zi not only feels safer, but is also eager to use the Divine Wood Cauldron to cultivate the Dissolving Power Technique.

After reading the general outline of the Northern Darkness Divine Art, I gained a new understanding of Azi's understanding of the Dissolving Power Technique.

Having the Divine Wood King Cauldron to assist in cultivation is worlds apart from not having it, so Azi was also very impatient.

"Ah Zi, why does the Divine Wood Cauldron attract poisonous insects?"

"My lord, the Divine Wood King Cauldron is the treasure of the Starry Sky Sect. It is made from the heartwood of a thousand-year-old submerged poisonous incense tree. This type of wood itself is located in a highly poisonous swamp, and after being soaked for many years, it has a natural attraction to poisons."

"So, the Divine Wood King Cauldron is actually a tool for catching poisonous insects?"

"Yes, the more potent the poisonous insect, the stronger its venom!"

"Even so, the backlash is extremely strong, Azi, are you aware of that?"

"I understand that cultivating to a certain level will inevitably lead to negative consequences, but now, with the aid of the Northern Darkness Divine Art, my Dissolving Power Technique will only become stronger!"

"In that case, I'll help you!"

Cao Cao was also very curious about just how strong A Zi was after learning the Huagong Dafa and Beiming Shengong.

Moreover, Cao Cao had a firm grasp on how to control A Zi. Just like Quan Guanqing, A Zi was also given a peerless martial arts manual by him. Although it was a fragment, it was still an extraordinary martial arts classic.

They needed Cao Cao's guidance to advance further; since they had mutual needs, their relationship would last longer.

As night fell, Cao Cao took A Zi to the outskirts of Luoyang. Although the Xingxiu Sect was keeping watch outside, they could not keep an eye on Cao Cao.

Cao Cao, using the Lingbo Weibu technique, was able to carry A Zi at a speed that was in no way inferior, without leaving a trace of his presence.

"My lord, your lightness skill is amazing! Can I learn it?"

"This is also a unique skill of the Free and Unfettered Sect, the Lingbo Weibu (Lingbo Steps). You can learn it if you want."

Cao Cao's words deeply moved A Zi. Having been orphaned since childhood, she could only protect herself through ruthlessness and willfulness.

So, in other people's eyes, Azi is a heartless person, but not everyone can have a normal environment to live in from the beginning.

How could Azi, who was constantly living in fear, possibly have a kind heart?

A'Zhu was different. At least she lived in a prestigious family and, although she was a servant, she was valued and thus received the best education.

This is why A'Zhu, despite being a servant, possessed the demeanor of a refined young lady; she had picked up this quality from Wang Yuyan.

That's why there's the saying "one is influenced by one's company," while Azi was influenced by her company.

Living in a complex sect like the Starry Sky Sect is quite painful.

"But you have to promise me one thing, Azi."

"My lord, please speak."

"Don't bully the weak, because there's always someone stronger. If you accidentally offend some powerful figure, I won't be there to help!"

"Of course! I learned martial arts to help the weak and punish the strong!"

Ah Zi agreed quite quickly, but she still needs to gradually feel this awareness.

Cao Cao was merely offering a reminder; both the Lingbo Weibu and the Beiming Divine Skill are incomplete, and different people will have different experiences when learning them.

Therefore, even if Azi learns the Lingbo Weibu (a martial arts technique), she may not be able to unleash its full potential, but it is certainly stronger than ordinary light-body skills.

Cao Cao was not stingy, so when A Zi was playing with the Divine Wood King Cauldron, Cao Cao became vigilant around her, as he was also very curious about the effects of the Divine Wood King Cauldron.

Azi lit incense in the cauldron, and a strange fragrance wafted over, making people feel refreshed and relaxed.

"No wonder it attracts poisonous insects; even I almost lost my way. However, this fragrance may not only attract poisonous insects but also cause some trouble."

Cao Cao wasn't afraid of the disciples of the Xingxiu Sect, but he was afraid of the Xingxiu Old Monster!

This old fellow dared to come to the Central Plains, so his skills must have improved considerably. Therefore, he wanted to test the power of the martial arts masters in the Central Plains.

A strange fragrance appeared, and poisonous insects, snakes, and ants from the outskirts flocked into the cauldron.

Before long, the cauldron was filled with poison, and Azi absorbed the poison's power on the spot without worrying about any accidents.

"She's really bold. She extracted the poison on the spot and turned it into palm power. In just a short while, Azi's poison palm has become very powerful."

After Azi converted the toxins of the poisonous creatures into her own power, the attracted poisonous creatures turned into a cloud of snow mist and merged into the cauldron.

"The Divine Wood King Cauldron, I think it's a divine artifact for strangling poisonous creatures. It would be a great tool for cultivating poison arts!"

"No wonder Ding Chunqiu attaches such importance to it. Without the Divine Wood King Cauldron, it would take Ding Chunqiu a lot of effort to catch these poisonous insects. Moreover, ordinary poisons would probably be useless to experts of Ding Chunqiu's level. This means that the Divine Wood King Cauldron can attract top-grade poisons?"
