"The Tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao. The Tao of Heaven is to reduce the excess and supplement the deficiency. Friends come from afar..."

Yang Zhen was talking nonsense in a serious tone, with an expression of an accomplished person flashing on his face, when suddenly his whole body was shocked.

Boom! A terrifying wave of air erupted around Yang Zhen, and the sound of heaven sang loudly, like the might of heaven and earth, making people tremble with fear.

Countless fluorescent patterns of heaven and earth lingered around, like a whirlpool. The true energy was violent and surging. The ancient Shangyuan Sutra in Yang Zhen's body was actually running crazily in an alternative way.

Yang Zhen was startled and tried to pull back his true energy which was like a runaway wild horse, but the next moment, he was stunned.

The Shangyuan Ancient Scripture actually broke through the realm of heaven-level skills and reached the spiritual level!

This...is this also okay?

Looking at the terrifying vortex of true energy around them and the mysterious and extraordinary patterns of heaven and earth, not to mention Duan Langcai and the other two, even Yang Zhen himself was a little confused.

Although Yang Zhen was talking nonsense, his mind was full of the contents of the Tao Te Ching. After these contents were connected with the Shangyuan Ancient Scripture, he unexpectedly got promoted! This was really a pleasant surprise. Yang Zhen was overjoyed and hurriedly sat down to comprehend the changes in the Shangyuan Ancient Scripture. He didn't care about other people.

The original Shangyuan Ancient Scripture only traveled through sixteen meridians, but now it was running like a rushing river, madly flowing through nearly thirty meridians in Yang Zhen's body. Terrifying waves of air violently burst out, and Yang Zhen's momentum increased dramatically, and his cultivation also improved by leaps and bounds.

Duan Langcai and the other two were stunned. Their eyes and mouths became bigger and bigger. They looked at Yang Zhen in disbelief, with expressions of horror on their faces.

Such a horrifying phenomenon in heaven and earth is something that no one has ever seen with their own eyes, let alone even heard of.

No matter whether it is Shangyuan Sect or Shijian Sect, none of them can produce even a heaven-level martial arts technique, let alone have seen the terrifying power of spiritual-level martial arts. Faced with such a violent riot of vital energy, the three of them were all amazed by Yang Zhen.

Yang Zhen laughed out loud, feeling extremely happy. This time he was not pretending, he was truly happy.

With his talent, Yang Zhen's comprehension was far superior to that of ordinary people. Now he has also "realized" the Daodejing, which does not exist in Youzhou Continent. The combination of the two immediately brought the Shangyuan Ancient Scripture to a higher level! Almost in the blink of an eye, Yang Zhen's realm has climbed to the sixth level of the Condensation Period, and is still rising rapidly.

Yang Zhenru was singing wildly while drunk, feeling heroic all of a sudden. He stretched out his hand, scooped up a handful of the Spirit Cleansing Essence, tilted his head back and drank it, laughing incessantly.

“Namelessness is the beginning of all things, and name is the mother of all things. Therefore, one should always be without desire in order to observe its wonders, and always have desire in order to observe its boundaries…”

Thank you, great Laozi, for creating such a brilliant masterpiece! After Yang Zhen drank the Spirit Cleansing Essence, the terrifying true energy that erupted from his body became even more violent, like a storm, sweeping across the entire cave, frightening Duan Langcai and the other two so much that they hurriedly retreated, their eyes flashing with horror, their mouths unable to close.

Boom! After the Shangyuan Ancient Scripture had run for nine cycles, a violent wave of power suddenly erupted between heaven and earth. Countless lines of heaven and earth rushed into Yang Zhen's body. In the blink of an eye, the entire cave returned to normal. Yang Zhen's cultivation had actually broken through the eighth level of the Condensation Period, and he was only one step away from the 90th level of the Condensation Period.

Looking at the three people in front of him who were already frightened, Yang Zhen said calmly with an indifferent expression: "Who are you? Disturbing my rest, just for this reason, I have reason to make your souls fly away and your bodies disappear!"

Duan Langcai's expression changed, and he said hurriedly: "Senior, we have no intention of offending you. We originally thought that the Spirit Washing Essence was ownerless, but who knew it belonged to you. Please forgive us for any offense."

The woman surnamed Fang and the young man surnamed Lu also hurriedly said that the three of them had accidentally broken in.

Yang Zhen snorted softly, noticing that Duan Langcai was slowly approaching under the pretext of talking. Knowing that Duan Langcai was probably still suspicious, he asked with a chuckle, "Are you from the Shijian Sect?"

Yang Zhen secretly laughed, his expression became more and more stern, and he cursed: "Nonsense, Ghost Shadow Sword made you into this state, why didn't Wan Quan kill you with one sword?"

"You..." Duan Langcai stepped back two steps in shock and said in horror: "Senior, do you know the master?"

"Master?" Yang Zhen laughed and said, "I didn't expect that boy back then to become the Master of Shijian Sect. No wonder Shijian Sect is becoming more and more desolate. Well, I still have a cause and effect with that boy Wanquan. In terms of seniority, you still have to call me Grandpa. Show the Ghost Shadow Sword in front of me and I'll teach you a thing or two."

At this point, Yang Zhen's expression turned cold, and he shouted at the woman surnamed Fang and the young man surnamed Lu: "You two, why don't you get out? Do you want me to send you out?"

Upon hearing this, the woman surnamed Fang and the young man surnamed Lu hurriedly apologized, looked at each other, and retreated.

Yang Zhen breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this, but he was still a little nervous, his back was soaked.

Duan Langcai was full of suspicion and seemed to still not trust Yang Zhen.

Yang Zhen closed his eyes and said in a pretentious manner: "You only have one chance!"

Duan Langcai was shocked when he heard this, and said through gritted teeth: "Please teach me, senior!"

Even if Yang Zhen was pretending to be so advanced, he would have nowhere to hide after the Ghost Shadow Sword was used, and he could be killed then. Duan Lang was reciting the Ghost Shadow Sword technique while using it.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Outside the cave, the woman surnamed Fang took a deep breath and asked the young man surnamed Lu, "Brother Lu, was that senior practicing a spiritual-level technique just now?"

Senior Brother Lu smiled bitterly and said, "How would I know if it is a spiritual-level technique? However, a heaven-level technique shouldn't be so terrifying. I once heard Master say that any technique that can trigger the patterns of heaven and earth to manifest in the world is above the heaven-level."

The woman surnamed Fang was shocked: "But that senior looks about the same age as us."

"Ambition does not matter when one is old." The young man surnamed Lu shook his head and said, "Besides, most of the truly powerful seniors have the ability to maintain their youth, so it is difficult to tell their true age from their appearance."

"Senior Brother Duan is really lucky to be able to receive guidance from a senior. Perhaps his strength will improve by leaps and bounds!" The woman surnamed Fang said enviously.

A trace of jealousy flashed in the eyes of the young man surnamed Lu, and he said, "Maybe that person is not a senior at all, and he is just playing a trick on him. A real strong man will not instruct us so easily. When he comes out, we will understand naturally."

The woman surnamed Fang nodded and said regretfully, "Senior Brother Lu is absolutely right."

Just at this moment, Duan Lang walked out of the cave, looking a little dazed, with wounds all over his body and face, bleeding, and a look of horror and shock.

The woman surnamed Fang and the young man surnamed Lu hurried over and asked curiously, "What happened? How did you get hurt? Could it be that the man is not really a senior, but a liar?"

Duan Langcai suddenly raised his head, pointed his sword at the young man surnamed Lu, and said in a deep voice: "Don't insult my grandfather!"
