Abundant Martial Arts Virtue

The ape's name is Liu Xing.

The Dutch Pig calls himself Da Zhuang.

The horse is White Prince.

"I've heard much about you. Greetings, everyone."

Wu Xiaode cupped his hands one by one.

These were originally Merit's powers, absorbed by the "Disastrous Fate Walk", transforming into spiritual beings.

"Boss Ming, have you really heard of me?" Liu Xing couldn't help but ask.

"Of course I've heard," Wu Xiaode nodded, "You made such a name for yourself in the Heavenly God Palace, with the Arrow That Calms Heaven, tsk tsk, who wouldn't know?"

— Everything that happened in the Disastrous Fate Walk, Wu Xiaode naturally knew.

After all, this was his magic.

As for the "Three Paths Death Land"—

He had already left that place and came to this pillar with Wang Lingxiu, thus no longer affected by it.

Thanks to Everday City.

By the way, where exactly is Everday City?

The ape's laughter brought Wu Xiaode back from his thoughts.

"Haha, good! Boss Ming, you really are a good person, the more I see you, the more I like you!"

Wu Xiaode chuckled, raised his cup, and drank with the ape.

Although this was a desolate wilderness, the ape pulled out a wolf fang club, striking left and right, clearing out all the evil transformed entities.

The world was at peace.

— Thanks to its effort, Wu Xiaode and Wang Lingxiu no longer needed to worry about safety issues.

Liu Xing drank the wine, suddenly frowned and said:

"How come Da Zhuang has been gone for so long on the reconnaissance? White Prince, you go take a look too."

"Yes, elder brother," said the white horse.

Bang—

It transformed into a lightning bolt, instantly shot out, and disappeared after a few bounds in the mountains and forests.

Ye Huangyun stood up from the campfire, holding a talisman, and walked towards the dense forest on the other side.

"Hey, Ye friend, where are you going?"

Wu Xiaode shouted.

"Haha, it's nothing, I'll send a message and be back soon to drink with you," Ye Huangyun said.

He ducked into the bushes.

Wu Xiaode looked at the ape.

The ape shrugged and said, "Master has to use talisman magic video with his wife every night, you'll get used to it."

Wu Xiaode clinked cups with it.

I wonder if Merit being divided into so many parts by the "Disastrous Fate Walk" will give birth to some real humanity.

Let's take it one step at a time.

He instinctively glanced back at Wang Lingxiu.

Only to see Wang Lingxiu sitting cross-legged, hands forming gestures, in the middle of cultivation.

The ape also saw this and sighed:

"Cultivation is tough work, I also put in a lot of effort to get to where I am today."

"Brother Liu Xing, what magic do you practice?" Wu Xiaode asked with interest.

"Hard! Hard! Hard! True skill lies in the heart, trying to discern it leaves one speechless," the ape said.

Wu Xiaode only asked casually and didn't think the other would easily reveal the secrets of evil power to him.

Suddenly, a fierce gust of wind blew over.

The ape put down the wine cup and shouted, "Good demon, don't run, I shall fight with you!"

It rushed into the sky, chasing that gust away.

The campfire area quieted down.

Wu Xiaode picked up some food with his chopsticks and ate rice continuously.

He alternated between picking food and drinking wine, enjoying his meal.

Wang Lingxiu suddenly opened her eyes and transmitted, "There are enemies."

"Come over here," Wu Xiaode said.

"Okay." Wang Lingxiu got up and quietly hid behind Wu Xiaode.

A dark giant hand protected the two of them.

The whole world seemed to fall into dead silence.

One breath.

Two breaths.

Three breaths.

That terrifying tremor silently disappeared.

"Why did the enemies leave?"

Wang Lingxiu said puzzledly.

Wu Xiaode was also a bit surprised, suddenly remembered something, stood up, and looked towards the distant bushes.

— There was nothing in the bushes.

The whistling of the swift wind came again.

The ape descended from the sky and said disdainfully, "Humph, that passing demon sure runs fast."

Wu Xiaode looked at it and said in a deep voice, "Elder brother, it's not good, Master has been taken by the demon!"

"What!"

The ape was shocked, rushed to the bushes, and looked around.

Ye Huangyun was indeed missing.

"My poor master! Be careful even when on a call!"

Liu Xing stomped his foot, performed a magic spell, soared into the sky, and disappeared once more.

Only Wu Xiaode and Wang Lingxiu were left in place again.

"Want to go help?"

Wang Lingxiu asked.

"No worries, you continue your cultivation, I'll go check the situation." Wu Xiaode replied.

He sat down in front of the bonfire, slightly closed his eyes, as if entering a meditative state.

Meanwhile.

Deep within the mountains.

Inside a cave abode.

A dozen or so demon beasts under an evil transformation simultaneously looked up, staring at Ye Huangyun suspended in mid-air.

"Big brother," a demon beast said uncertainly, "this must be a notable person."

All the demon beasts looked towards the leading Evil Bear sitting at the top.

Evil Bear stared at Ye Huangyun, nodded and said:

"Indeed, this must be a notable person, trapped within this human body by an extremely powerful magic, unable to escape."

The beasts all chimed in:

"What should we do?"

"Should we help this notable person?"

"But what magic should we use?"

"Transforming this notable person directly into human form is quite difficult."

"Indeed."

Evil Bear shouted loudly, "Everyone, think hard, find out what magic can break the spell on this notable person!"

The beasts stared at Ye Huangyun, falling into deep thought.

Meanwhile, amidst their discussion, countless mutterings echoed in Ye Huangyun's ears from the Void.

"What are they saying?"

Ye Huangyun, feeling dizzy, had to forcibly regain focus to hear clearly:

"Eat this fellow."

"He carries human cultivation techniques and a Saint of many lifetimes' merit, eating him can grant immortality!"

"Indeed, my king, give the order."

"I really want to eat a piece of him!"

——So these creatures want to eat me.

Ye Huangyun pondered secretly.

But why are they so formidable?

I didn't even have a chance to resist and got captured!

No way, now I can only hope Liu Xing and the others can come rescue me.

Suddenly.

Among the group of demon beasts under an evil transformation, an Evil Flood Dragon spoke: "I thought of a magic, perhaps it can break the power on this notable person and restore all his memories."

Hundreds of miles away.

Wu Xiaode suddenly opened his eyes, growled: "Go."

A giant dark hand materialized from the Void beside him, instantly shot into the sky, flying towards the forest.

In merely a breath.

The giant dark hand descended from the sky, "boom" upon the cave abode's door, shattering it completely.

Evil Bear angrily shouted: "How dare they attack us, everyone, follow me to see who it is!"

The loud noise in the mountains immediately attracted Liu Xing, Da Zhuang, and the White Prince who were searching for enemies.

Liu Xing arrived first.

It rushed into the cave, wildly hammering away with a spiked club, creating a flood of blood.

"Wait!"

Evil Bear shouted.

"You captured my master, do you have any last words?" the ape growled hatefully.

Evil Bear said: "Listen, you guys originally—"

Boom!!!

The ape's spiked club smashed hard onto its face, flattening Evil Bear into a pancake.

The words never got said.

——Even if spoken, it wouldn't have mattered, as the "calamity of cursed fate" was still operating endlessly.

Upon Evil Bear's death, a sould-light suddenly emerged.

The soul-light flew into the air, circling Ye Huangyun, urgently shouting:

"Lord, wake up!"

"What? You're dead and still thinking of eating me?" Ye Huangyun glared.

The spiked club rose again.

Smack.

The soul-light shattered.

Until this moment, all the wearying muttering voices in the Void gradually faded away.

Ye Huangyun suddenly felt clear-headed, immediately saw the current situation, joyfully exclaimed:

"Disciple, I'm here! Quickly, save me!"

"Master, fear not, I'm coming." the ape said.

Soon after.

The Dutch Pig Da Zhuang and White Prince also arrived.

The three disciples together rescued Ye Huangyun from the cave abode.

Only to see Wu Xiaode and Wang Lingxiu already standing outside, waiting.

Liu Xing stepped forward, saluted:

"Thanks to Boss Ming for that strike, I discovered master hidden in this cave abode."

Ye Huangyun heard this, finally understood, the previous loud noise was caused by Wu Xiaode's action.

"Thanks, Brother Ming." He gratefully saluted.

Wu Xiaode smiled faintly, said: "We are all fellow seekers of immortality in Spirit Mountain, no need for politeness."

Ye Huangyun passionately said:

"Exactly, from now on, I and Brother Ming shall support each other, striving to reach Spirit Mountain soon."
