Jiang Deng pretended not to understand, "Danqing, what are you talking about? I'm just an ordinary cultivator in the Jindan realm."
"Hiss...but the more I look at you, the more familiar you seem to me." Dan Qing stared at Jiang Deng's face suspiciously, "Have we met somewhere before?"
Jiang Deng shook his head like a rattle.
Danqing still didn't let go of Jiang Deng and continued to speculate: "You said your name is Jiang Deng, could you really be the Venerable Jiang Deng? You know what, you two really look a bit alike."
"Bullshit! I've never communicated with you privately!"
Jiang Deng said angrily that Danqing must be deceiving her! She would not believe it!
"Ah, have you forgotten?"
Dan Qing frankly said, "Twelve hundred years ago, the righteous and demonic sects were negotiating a ceasefire. You represented the righteous and came to our Demon Realm to negotiate peace. As soon as I asked you to cede three spiritual cities, you slammed the table and refused to speak. Your despicable behavior is exactly the same as it is now."
Jiang Deng: “…” Can she be blamed for this?
In her previous life, she had a mostly aloof style. Danqing was so arrogant that she couldn't help but lose her temper on the spot.
"But..." Danqing looked at Jiang Deng scrutinizingly, "Why have you changed?"
Jiang Deng said confidently: "Why, doesn't it look good?"
"I can't tell whether it's good or not, but it's true that you're not as strong as before."
Jiang Deng was suddenly discouraged. "I, my cultivation will definitely improve slowly..."
Danqing laughed dumbly, "Since we are old acquaintances, I will tell you something."
"What's up?"
Danqing pointed at the ground where the rune had just appeared, "Don't practice this last rune."
"Hmm? What do you mean?"
"Wei Yan has tampered with the last rune. If you practice this rune, it will be like branding it in your sea of consciousness. At that time, as long as Wei Yan is willing, he can easily control your body."
Hearing this, Jiang Deng's eyes widened in surprise.
This Wei Yan is so insidious!
No wonder she felt something was wrong no matter how she looked at it at that time. It turned out that there was really something wrong with the last rune!
That also explains why Wei Yan made such a big deal about this secret realm. It turned out that he was not worried at all that the inheritor would escape from his grasp.
With this last rune, even if the opponent is powerful enough to ascend, he is just Wei Yan's puppet!
Jiang Deng frowned slightly, "What should we do then? Could it be that this 'Eight Gates Kung Fu' can only cultivate seven gates? Doesn't this mean it should be renamed 'Seven Gates Kung Fu'?"
A smile flashed in Danqing's eyes, "Guess who Wei Yan learned the Eight Gates Kung Fu from?"
Jiang Deng stared at Danqing in disbelief, "Don't tell me I learned it from you."
Danqing nodded happily, "Exactly."
Jiang Deng's mouth twitched, "...Wei Yan is your apprentice?"
"No, Wei Yan is from a famous and upright sect, how could he be related to a demon lord like me?"
Dan Qing shook his head and laughed, "It all started with the Great War between humans and demons. As a righteous cultivator, he volunteered to be my undercover agent and revealed to me the righteous people's plan to encircle and suppress the Demon Palace. The condition was that I would teach him this technique."
"Later, with his help, our demon clan won the war and expanded the Demon Realm. I also kept my promise and taught him the Eight Gates Technique."
"...Damn Wei Yan!" Jiang Deng gritted his teeth in hatred.
She explained why every attempt to siege the Demon Palace failed. It turned out that there was a traitor among her subordinates who leaked the news in advance, causing the righteous monks under her leadership to suffer several defeats in a row, and finally had to make peace with the demons by cutting off their own flesh and blood.
"Ahhh, Danqing, you are so insidious!" Jiang Deng was so angry that he wanted to go up and strangle Danqing to death.
Danqing glanced over, and he looked so awe-inspiring without even being angry.
Jiang Deng immediately became dejected.
Forget it, the eldest sister won’t make fun of the second sister anymore.
The two of them were more unlucky than each other. Both were ambushed when they ascended to heaven. One became a walking corpse, and the other was reborn to start from scratch.
All the grudges from the past have gone with the wind...
"Here you go, the correct Death Gate rune."
Danqing said as he mobilized the devilish energy and drew a complicated rune. The rune flashed with light and floated in front of Jiang Deng.
Jiang Deng did not start practicing immediately, but instead carefully examined the runes in front of him.
This time, I didn’t feel as weird as the last time I saw the runes. It can be seen that the runes this time have not been tampered with and are indeed real.
Danqing had said before that the problematic rune would leave a mark in the sea of consciousness, which showed that this eighth rune was mainly used to cultivate the brain.
Jiang Deng operated the spiritual consciousness in his sea of consciousness according to the Death Gate rune. His mind became noticeably clearer and his thinking became sharper.
A white light flashed, and a complex rune mark appeared on her forehead, then disappeared.
"Eight gates, open!"
Jiang Deng activated eight runes at once, and instantly felt that his thinking, vision, smell, and hearing had been improved several times. His body's defense became stronger, and the strength of his arms and legs was greatly enhanced.
She was clearly only at the first level of the Jindan realm, but she felt that her current physical strength was comparable to that of a mid-stage Jindan realm cultivator!
However, maintaining this state requires spiritual energy. Jiang Deng feels that the chaotic power in his dantian is being rapidly consumed, and he estimates that he will not be able to hold on for a quarter of an hour.
Danqing, who was standing by, reminded him, "The Eight Gates Kung Fu is a physical training technique. It requires the use of water, fire, wind, snow, thunder and other methods to constantly temper the body and hone the strength of the flesh. You must never slack off."
"Okay, I remember it!" Jiang Deng closed the state of all eight gates being open and nodded in response.
"By the way, Danqing, I have one last question for you." Jiang Deng took out the secret book he had chosen from the Sutra Library. "What kind of technique is this? Why is everything blank?"
"this……"
Danqing took it and flipped through it several times before falling into deep thought. "This wordless book was obtained by Wei Yan from an ancient secret realm. He never understood the secrets within, so he abandoned it in the Sutra Library. I never thought you would find it."
"And... I remember that the word 'Master' wasn't originally on this cover. What did you do?"
"I didn't do anything," Jiang Deng answered subconsciously, "I just..."
Speaking of this, Jiang Deng suddenly remembered!
She had used the power of chaos to wipe the cover, and then these two words appeared on the cover, but she did not use the power of chaos to wipe the content in the middle, so it did not appear!
"I see!"
Thinking of this, Jiang Deng couldn't wait to pick up the book again and wipe the papers inside one by one with the power of chaos. The next moment, words really appeared on the originally blank paper!
When all the papers were wiped away, the wordless book turned into a golden stream of light and sank into Jiang Deng's forehead.
Seeing this, Danqing's eyes showed a hint of solemnity, "It's actually a divine power!"
