It was almost completely dark by late afternoon.
In the forest at the foot of Shenfu Mountain, a sound like "Ka Chi Chi ~~" echoed, as if an earthworm was burrowing through the mud. Suddenly, a large piece of soil bulged up, and with a loud noise, a pit appeared on the ground. A fiery red figure flew out of the pit and landed on the ground - it was Teng Qing Shan.
"It's closer than I thought." Teng Qing Shan looked ahead, and not far away was a crescent-shaped Moon Tooth Lake. On the shore of the lake were three stone houses, with wisps of smoke rising from them.
"That cave in the belly of the mountain, I estimate, is about six zhang deep underground. Following the tunnel I dug, after exiting the tunnel, you can see Moon Tooth Lake from here." Teng Qing Shan smiled and carried his Reincarnation Spear back to his residence.
"Tan Qing Shan is back!" Little Ping was the first to see Tan Qing Shan and shouted with joy.
Teng Qing Shan walked directly into the stone house living room where dinner was being served, while Li Kun and Xiao Ping were bringing in dish after dish of hot food. Li Kun smiled and whispered: "Brother Teng, Old Wang and Ah Shou, these two martial arts fanatics haven't arrived yet, call them over."
"These two guys!" Teng Qing Shan shouted out towards the door immediately.
"Old Wang!"
"Ah Shou, let's have dinner."
Hong Qingshan's voice was very loud and directly echoed in the forest outside.
In the northern part of the forest, a Teng beast with black fur was practicing "Tou Xing Zhī Quán". The sound of air explosions kept ringing out, causing the surrounding snow to flutter. Occasionally, a punch would hit a large tree, and with a loud "Boom!", the trunk would burst and break, and the big tree would slowly fall, affecting a large group.
Teng Qing Shan teaches Teng Beast, very casual.
Only every morning, check the progress first and then guide. As for other times, it's all about letting Teng Beast practice on its own, Teng Qing Shan doesn't have time to supervise. Generally, Teng Beast chooses a quiet place to practice alone.
"Wow, that's amazing!" Nearby, a petite girl with an average build and wearing a gray cotton-padded jacket was excitedly clapping her hands. Her face was slightly pale, possibly due to malnutrition. "A-Shou, you're really amazing!" She exclaimed, still clapping her palms.
"Hmm." Teng Beast finished a set of exercises and stopped, turning his head to smile foolishly at the girl.
"Ah-Beast Big Brother, what kind of fist technique is this?" The rural girl's eyes widened.
"Teacher, teach, Ah Shou's." Following Teng Qing Shan for more than two months, Teng Beast could say a lot of words now.
"Ah Shou, dinner is ready!" A loud shout came like thunder.
A burst of energy from the Heng beast.
"You... go back." Teng Beast waved his hand and said, "Teacher, call me."
"Hmm, my sisters-in-law didn't come to call me, probably still busy with work, I'm not in a hurry." The farm girl smiled and waved her hand, "A Shou, go back and eat quickly."
"Uh-huh."
The beast heavily lifted its head, and then seemed to be a wild animal, rushing towards the direction of Moon Tooth Lake. The peasant girl looked back and also turned her head northwards, walking into the fields beside the forest.
Since half a month ago, this rural girl has been following her elders to work in the fields and rest under the trees. She saw Tan Beast practicing boxing. Every day after finishing her work in the fields with her family, she often comes to watch Tan Beast practice boxing... And also found that Tan Beast is really fun.
Just like her second uncle's four-year-old kid, silly and fun.
At dinner table, Teng Qing Shan, Li Kun, Xiao Ping and Old Wang sat around, while Qing Luan and Kuang Feng Ying were also by their side.
"Before we eat, I have something important to say." Teng Qing Shan said.
At that moment, everyone at the table stopped and looked towards Qing Shan. Of course, Qing Luan and Kuang Feng Ying didn't care, anyway they couldn't understand, they just lowered their heads to eat the food Li Juan had prepared for them.
"I found a place today," said Teng Qing Shan, "at the bottom of the Divine Axe Mountain... near the nest of the Six-legged Flying Knife!"
"What's with the six-legged dagger?" Li Kun was somewhat surprised.
Hong Qing Shan nodded and said, "Next to the six-legged knife nest cave, there is a vast mountain belly. Inside that mountain belly, there is a vast expanse... However, as long as you live inside, it will have immense benefits for your body! It's just like how a postnatal peak master can normally cultivate and reach the prenatal hope, out of hundreds, maybe only one can achieve it. But living in that mountain belly, even a postnatal peak can reach the prenatal, I estimate, at least there is a 10% chance."
"What's going on?" Li Kun and Old Wang both exclaimed in surprise.
What is that concept?
Sounds like there's very little.
It can be accomplished in one go, representing a thousand postnatal masters entering, and having a hundred innate births!
It is known that, like Yangzhou's first sect 'Qinghu Island', there are probably several thousand later-stage peak experts. However, there are only about twenty or so pre-heavenly strong practitioners. The normal probability is indeed that among several hundred later-stage peaks, there is only one pre-heavenly practitioner.
"Heng big brother, how can this be possible?" Li Kun shook his head and smiled, "If there's such a treasure land, like a super sect, just arrange for three thousand postnatal peak experts to enter, won't it produce three hundred innate ones? Three hundred innate strongmen...this, this is impossible."
Teng Qing Shan was taken aback, previously, he had never thought of this matter. This efficiency is indeed frightening.
The Shifu 'Zhuge Yuanhong' of the Guiyuan Sect, only a handful of people with innate strength. As for the peak masters of the acquired realm, the entire Guiyuan Sect can barely gather five or six hundred! And as for those who have achieved completion, there are also about fifty to sixty innate strong practitioners?
Return to the origin, fifty-six pre-heavenly ones?
"I didn't realize it before, but this place's true benefit is indeed great." Teng Qing Shan exclaimed in his heart, "That place, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is over a hundred times denser than ordinary areas. Long-term stay there can even nourish 'gods', and for postnatal peak cultivators to reach the hope of becoming prenatal, it should have at least a 10% chance."
Yi Cheng is also guessing numbers in Teng Qing Shan.
"This is the function of the Jiuzhou Ding!" Teng Qing Shan also understood that such a place was hard to come by. First, one had to find a gathering point for the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Second, one needed the Jiuzhou Ding!
The Nine Tripods of Zhou, in total nine tripods.
Each of the nine Ding of Jiu Zhou has integrated a heavenly spiritual origin and possesses mysterious abilities. It chooses its master, and there is no way to control it.
"But this place is also very dangerous." Tian Qing Shan said in a row.
"That treasure land, even the six-legged knife-wielding insects don't dare to enter, they can only build their nests on the side of the treasure land. You should know the level of danger in that place." Teng Qing Shan said again.
Li Kun and Old Wang both nodded.
Such a heaven-defying treasure land, it's strange if there's no danger.
"It's only when I'm there that we can make that treasure land safe." Qing Shan said, "Alright, tomorrow morning, we'll move the beds and stuff over. We'll sleep there every night! Even while sleeping, you guys can still slowly increase your 'godly' powers."
Li Kun and Old Wang were both amazed.
It's just practicing and cultivating, even sleeping can improve, how scary!
"Every morning, noon and afternoon, I will be practicing outside. At that time, you all cannot stay inside." Teng Qing Shan instructed.
Teng Qing Shan is there! Others can only be there... Once Teng Qing Shan leaves, the treasure land immediately becomes a dangerous and evil land.
"I know, Brother Teng." Li Kun smiled all over her face. She also very much wanted to reach the Xiantian realm. Because... reaching the Xiantian realm, the greatest benefit for women is their appearance! Their appearance will hardly age.
"...Congenital..." Old Wang's eyes shone with light, and his fist on the table was clenched tightly.
"Must reach the innate, must!!!" Old Wang roared in his heart.
On the second day in the early morning, Teng Qing Shan arrived at the pit where he had broken out of the ground yesterday, holding the Heaven and Earth Axe.
Use the mountain-opening axe, along the tunnel, and dig downwards all the way!
Dig out a spacious, stepped passage. The surface is soil, but except for the top layer of soil, it's all hard stone underneath. Perhaps for ordinary people, digging a stone path at the foot of a hard mountain is extremely difficult. But for Qingyun Mountain, it's as easy as drinking water.
A mountain rock in front of him is just tofu!
Keep digging down!
Less than half a time, a tunnel that can accommodate three people side by side, all the way to the underground cave, was dug successfully by Teng Qing Mountain.
"Teng big brother, take a rest first." As soon as Teng Qing Shan finished digging, Li Kun immediately brought over a bowl of tea.
Li Kun watched as Tan Qing Shan downed his drink in one gulp, a happy smile spreading across her face.
"Huh? Someone?" Teng Qing Shan looked southward.
Silently, a group of people were making their way through the forest, heading towards Crescent Moon Lake.
"It's an old friend, let's go and move the house later." Teng Qing Shan carried the Kaisan divine axe and walked towards the Moon Tooth Lake shore. He sat down beside a stone table and placed the Kaisan divine axe by his feet.
"Mr. Teng." A loud and clear voice rang out, the newcomer was a group of experts led by a thin, silver-haired old man, this thin, silver-haired old man was none other than the sixth elder of the Xuriang Chamber of Commerce.
"Six Elders." Teng Qing Shan smiled and pointed across, "Sit."
The six elders and Tan Qing Shan sat facing each other, while that group of subordinates stood far away, not daring to get close.
"Come, have some tea." Qing Shan poured the tea first, "This time Sixth Elder has come, I wonder what's going on?"
The six elders heard this and laughed, their eyes narrowing: "Mr. Teng is indeed direct, I won't beat around the bush either. Last time, Mr. Teng, you told us that you were extremely eager to obtain the thirty-six carvings of 'Kai Shan San Shi Liu Shi'?"
"Right!" Teng Qing Shan's eyes shone with excitement.
A set of Baldy's stones, although there are also thirty-six moves, but that requires Teng Qing Shan to go and comprehend himself. The efficiency is higher than cultivating the secret book, but... compared to the thirty-six carvings left by Yu Huang, it's far inferior.
After all, those thirty-six carvings were all left by Yu Huang's 'mark'. Once combined with the Kaito Divine Axe, Teng Qing Shan could even see Yu Huang personally demonstrating and instructing. That efficiency was even faster than Teng Qing Shan comprehending the 'Divine Jade Plate'!
"How is it that you have obtained thirty-six carvings, or rather, one piece?" Teng Qing Shan hastily and anxiously asked.
"Oh, no, no." The Sixth Elder shook his head repeatedly. "We didn't get it, but... if Mr. really wants to obtain the thirty-six carvings, it's actually not difficult!"
"Oh?"
Hong Qing Shan narrowed his eyes and scrutinized Sixth Elder, "Sixth Elder, please speak carefully!"
