Chapter 150: You Know Too Much
“In these hundred years, with my support, you can become a king, waking to the power of the world and lounging in the lap of beauty!
You can roam the world, act as a hero, and eliminate violence to protect the good! Be a dashing wandering warrior.
You can pour money into the Cultivation World, possessing countless spiritual stones and treasures! Control the lifeblood of a sect!
I can even help you walk the path of cultivation again, living for hundreds more years! Experience a second spring!
Isn’t that delightful?”
“Thus, in a few hundred years, you won’t regret or lament dying under calamity!”
The middle-aged man lightly guided Ji Yang, painting a picture of the world he dreamed of.
“You make a good point!”
Ji Yang nodded in agreement, and the middle-aged man revealed a slight smile.
“However, I don’t agree!”
The middle-aged man’s smile froze, wanting to scold but realizing he was still at the mercy of another; he held his tongue.
“Actually, I think being able to farm, mine, and fish in my current state is quite good.”
“Ha! You have no ambition!”
The middle-aged man scoffed but stopped persuading him.
“Alright, I’ll continue asking. You just answer, and don’t say more.”
Ji Yang warned him and returned to the main topic.
“Since you say there’s only a ninety-nine percent chance of dying under calamity, doesn’t that mean there’s a hundred and one percent hope? Tell me about it.”
“…”
“They say it’s ninety-nine percent, but in reality, the hope is bleak, hardly worth counting!
It’s just that those who once possessed this talent were unwilling to yield to fate, trying to find a glimmer of life, firmly believing in a way out, which is why they claim it’s only ninety-nine percent.”
After saying this, the middle-aged man changed his tone:
“But there might still be a chance. It’s said that some of those with extraordinary talent once gathered and conspired to find a method, but what happened afterward is unknown.”
“However, since heavenly paths still exist today and you’ve asked this question, I believe they must have failed.”
Ji Yang lightly said:
“Do you know what the method was?”
“How would I know? I wasn’t there!”
Ji Yang laughed:
“That’s alright; it’s not too late for you to go now. Just remember to ask for me when you get there!”
“Hey, kid, what are you planning? Didn’t we agree? I answer your questions, and you let me go?”
“How can a person go back on their word?”
Ji Yang’s expression turned thoughtful.
“I’ll ask you a few more questions.”
“Hmph.”
“What is the name of this mirror? What is its function?”
“Don’t you already know?”
The middle-aged man replied irritably.
Ji Yang nodded:
“It seems you don’t know, so you are of no use to me!”
“I do know! This is the immobilizing mirror, which can stop all things, but it consumes a tremendous amount of magical power. If your level is too low, its effectiveness is quite limited!”
“Ha, if you’re going to lie, at least be clever about it! You have no physical body, where would you get magical power? How could you control it? How could it last this long?”
After Ji Yang said this, he exerted a slight force with his palm.
“That’s… that’s different! In the past, my physical body was still intact. As for the residual magical power, it was drawn from the spiritual energy of this place’s treasures. Part is used to sustain my physical body, and the rest is to maintain the mirror!”
“However, later, when my physical body deteriorated, I transferred all the spiritual energy and primordial spirit into the mirror, allowing me to survive!”
“The power that the immobilizing mirror displayed just now was merely the last echo; to use it again, you would need to draw spiritual energy from treasures or inject enough magical power!”
After the middle-aged man finished speaking, the copper mirror dimmed, and with a loud “bang,” it fell to the ground. At the same time, Ji Yang’s physical body was freed from all constraints and restored to normal.
Seeing Ji Yang stop asking questions, the middle-aged man became a little anxious and quickly spoke:
“Keep asking! I have many Techniques for True Immortals here; just a couple could forge a strong family or sect, becoming their foundation!”
“Not interested!”
“I also know the location of a Tribulation Crossing stage practitioner’s cave, where many spiritual plants grow and powerful True Spirits are raised. After all this time, those spiritual plants must be extraordinary! I’ll take you to find them!”
“It might not even be worth being eaten by True Spirits.”
“Don’t worry; I know sect secrets, is the Diamond Sect still around?”
“This sect also has the foundation of an ancient sect; within its grounds lies a special magical tool that was lost. This tool possesses boundless power, infused with the earth’s energy. Wearing it can enhance physical strength, and it rivals True Spirit Xuanwu! However, this magical tool is a bit peculiar; it must be worn on the head and has a rather strange shape!”
“I also know its specific location!”
“You can ask me!”
“Forget it; one sword is enough for me.”
“However, since you’re so knowledgeable, I have two more questions.”
Seeing Ji Yang needing his help, the middle-aged man smiled widely.
“Go ahead!”
“Two practitioners flew on swords, departing simultaneously from Jingtan Peak and Wangxia Peak and heading toward each other. They first met fifty-six kilometers from Wangxia Peak. After meeting, they maintained the same sword flight speed to reach each other’s mountain peaks, then returned the same way. They met for the second time forty-two kilometers from Jingtan Peak. So, what is the distance between the two peaks?”
After hearing Ji Yang’s question, the middle-aged man stared blankly for a moment.
Looking up at Ji Yang’s smiling eyes, the middle-aged man couldn’t help but feel annoyed:
“What kind of question is this! You’re doing this on purpose! Ask me anything else, I will definitely know!”
Ji Yang nodded:
“True, let me change it.”
“What is one plus one?”
The middle-aged man breathed rapidly; this was a blatant insult!
But to survive, he still replied:
“Two!”
“You know too much! Die!”
Under the furious gaze of the middle-aged man, Ji Yang gripped his hands tightly, and in an instant, a sword intent surged forth, cleanly severing the middle-aged man’s primordial spirit without leaving a trace.
Watching the middle-aged man disappear completely, Ji Yang, for safety, scattered his primordial spirit energy throughout the room to ensure no traces remained before stopping.
After dealing with the middle-aged man, Ji Yang turned and flew back into his physical body. As his Nascent Soul sank into his dantian, his clarity of mind quickly returned.
Feeling his flawless body, Ji Yang nodded slightly, then walked slowly toward the ancient copper mirror that lay on the ground.
At this moment, the ancient copper mirror lacked radiance, revealing an antique appearance that looked worthless.
However, having witnessed its power earlier, Ji Yang would never treat it as an ordinary object.
This should be the second Ancient magical tool he acquired!
Although the middle-aged man’s primordial spirit was completely gone, Ji Yang remained cautious, his sword light condensed in his eyes, ready to strike at any moment.
But until he held the copper mirror in his hand, nothing unusual happened, allowing Ji Yang to relax.
Looking at the copper mirror in his hands, Ji Yang couldn’t help but examine it closely.
The mirror’s surface was smooth, and the frame was engraved with patterns, connecting directly to the handle. The texture was quite nice.
Since it wasn’t the time for exploration, Ji Yang didn’t plan to delve deeply into it, and instead, he stored it in his storage bag.
After doing all this, Ji Yang turned to look around, but his expression suddenly changed:
“Oh no!
“I forgot to ask him if there is a Top-Quality Xuan Iron Mine here!”
