Black Wind Mountain.
The town at the foot of the mountain was still bustling with activity.
But the towering mountain seemed to harbor a lot of darkness.
“I won’t accompany you any further.”
Yang Jian's eyes held a somber look as he said casually, “Your martial arts have greatly improved. You can travel the world now, young man. It’s time for you to go out and explore.”
Liu Chang Kong nodded thoughtfully.
He was reluctant to part ways.
After all, his master still possessed many valuable skills.
He had only copied “Carry Mountain and Chase the Sun” so far. There were many others he hadn't had a chance to copy yet.
“So be it.”
Yang Er Lang glanced at Liu Chang Kong again. He slung his backpack over his shoulder and said, “I’ll be on my way. You can go to Black Wind Mountain. It's a good place. Ancient legends say that Xuanzang's journey to the West was also related to this place.”
As he spoke.
Yang Er Lang strode towards the distance.
Liu Chang Kong was about to say something.
Yang Jian had already passed through the crowds.
He disappeared before Liu Chang Kong's eyes.
“He sure does like to come and go as he pleases,”
Liu Chang Kong shook his head lightly, thinking to himself, “It seems someone is watching over my path ahead. So, what exactly is this so-called ‘Chosen One’?”
He had questions in his mind.
But he was able to guess at many things.
“Whatever the case, I have to get stronger first!”
Liu Chang Kong's mind raced as he made his decision. “Since this ability to steal skills exists, I’ll just use it to my advantage. Let’s see what the so-called truth really is.”
He knew he was the Chosen One.
The old monkey clearly knew.
And the gods and Buddhas were probably watching him.
He was now caught in this chaotic situation.
Since he was already in the game, he had to be brave and push forward.
Fortunately, he now had the “Sweep Away the濁 and Exalt the 清” skill.
He could keep stealing skills.
Even the skills of those primordial deities, he could use them to constantly improve himself.
It wouldn't take long.
He would grow to even greater heights.
When that time came, the pawn and the chess player would have to switch places.
With his mind made up.
Liu Chang Kong placed the red gourd at his waist.
Then he took his copper cloud club and entered the mountains.
The people outside rushed by, but none noticed.
Where there are deep woods, there are demons.
Black Wind Mountain was teeming with demonic aura.
Luckily, Liu Chang Kong was no longer the same as before.
He had acquired Er Lang Shen's "Carry Mountain and Chase the Sun” skill.
His strength was now extraordinary, taking down a few minor demons was a piece of cake.
He clenched the copper cloud club in his hand.
He looked ahead with a sharp gaze.
The moment he stepped into Black Wind Mountain, the wind and clouds swirled around him.
…
Liu Chang Kong looked towards the distance.
As he ventured deeper into the mountains.
The demonic aura around him grew thicker. There were also small wolf demons prowling about.
“Things aren’t so peaceful in these mountains, ya know!”
The little wolf demons clearly possessed some magical power. They could already speak.
“Lately, there have been a lot of monkeys coming in. They eat monkey brains all day. This mountain is starting to reek of monkey.”
Another wolf demon wielding a long knife brandished his weapon and said, “Come as many as you want. With just this blade of mine, a thousand come, a thousand die!”
“Here comes a human, big brother!”
The other little demons quickly drew their weapons.
They all saw the figure in the distance.
A young man clad in a coarse black cloth garment approached.
He was wearing a tiger-skin belt.
“Another monkey?”
The wolf scout quickly unsheathed his knife. He roared, “This is like poking a hornets’ nest. Watch me cut off its monkey head and drink its blood!”
“Brother, hold on.”
The other wolf brute quickly stopped him, saying, “This is a hairless monkey, it looks like a human. We’ll get to have some good meat now.”
He licked his lips as he spoke.
They seemed quite excited.
Liu Chang Kong also saw the little demons ahead.
His eyes quickly flashed with information.
【Wolf Scout】
【Cultivation: Demon Soldier】
【Possesses Skills: Fickle (White), Basic Martial Arts (Green)】
【Wolf Brute】
【Cultivation: Demon Soldier】
【Possesses Skills: Drinking and Revelry (White), Cowardly (White), Strong Physique (Green)】
【These demonic evils have committed many killings, meeting the conditions for “Sweep Away the濁 and Exalt the 清”. Killing them will allow you to steal their skills.】
“What garbage skills.”
Having seen Er Lang Shen's luxurious skills, Liu Chang Kong could only utter a scornful “garbage” for these small demons.
“Aaah, come and die!”
The wolf scout quickly swung his long knife.
He seemed to have learned many techniques.
And he was quite confident.
Liu Chang Kong, however, did not panic. He simply swung his club.
The powerful attack directly shattered the wolf scout's skull.
In that instant.
The wolf scout turned to ash.
The breeze carried the ashes onto Liu Chang Kong.
It felt like something was nourishing him from within.
“What was that?”
Liu Chang Kong was a bit puzzled.
But he didn’t have time to think about it. The wolf brute rushed forward.
Liu Chang Kong swung his club back.
And he also sent the wolf brute to his doom.
The wolf brute also turned to ash.
It was strange.
“So it was someone from the foot of the mountain who came here. Wait, this aura…”
A raspy voice came from the distance.
The voice was strange.
Yet it felt as if it was echoing in his ears.
