Chapter 43: Treading on Iron Principles

  Guo Lao led Zhang Heng and others towards the interior of the castle, during which they also passed through several streets.

  "Tang Shixiong, can you really help this waste spiritual root boy enter the Refining Qi stage?" Zhao Rui and Zhang Heng walked shoulder to shoulder, since they were relatively close in distance, they could transmit sound to each other through their divine sense.

  He was initially dissatisfied with Zhang Heng, but couldn't help being curious and continued to grind against him.

  Zhang Heng's expression didn't change and he didn't respond to Zhao Rui's words, because this involved the secrets of the Variant Arts, which naturally couldn't be easily revealed.

  Although Zhao Rui's nature is relatively simple and kind, he is definitely not someone who can share secrets. Even if he could keep a secret, Zhang Heng would not tell him.

  In Zhang Heng's heart, the secret of the abnormal work belongs only to one person, he will not reveal anything about the mysterious jade cylinder in his mind to anyone.

  In this vast and boundless world of cultivation, all cultivators, whether they are orthodox cultivators or demonic cultivators, cannot violate the most basic rules of cultivation in the world.

  The heart demon is also one of the cultivation rules in this world, and the cultivator's pursuit of eternal life is not only a process of physical transformation but also a step in the sublimation of the soul.

  No matter how powerful a cultivator is, whether it's the Blood Killing God Emperor or a lowly Qi Gathering stage cultivator, none can defy the Heart Demon's Oath.

  Once you go against it, unless you never want to make any breakthroughs in your life again, otherwise you will inevitably suffer from the backlash of heart demons, and even fall into a state of soul flying and scattered.

  Zhang Heng actually didn't have much confidence in helping this boy named Guo Feng reach the Qi Refining stage. With a crippled spiritual root, it was almost impossible for him to embark on the path of cultivation, which was a common understanding in the cultivation world.

  Zhang Heng, a cultivator in the Refining Qi stage, would naturally find it difficult to change the fate of a waste spiritual root.

  But Zhang Heng dared to make this oath of demon heart!

  It's not because of using Tang Feng's name instead of making an oath, but it's the special nature of the perverted skill itself.

  When Zhang Heng received the information in the first layer of Gutta, he already knew that one of the characteristics of this set of skills was that there were no heart demons and no bottlenecks.

  No mental demons, no bottlenecks!

  Such a kung fu would be terrifying, and just these two points are enough to make it the "most perverted kung fu in history".

  Zhang Heng's main cultivation method is the Transformation Technique, and he can only rely on this technique to improve his realm. As for other auxiliary techniques that increase spiritual power, such as Wind Movement, they have no effect on him. This is because these techniques are all based on the Transformation Technique and cannot improve the cultivator's realm.

  It can be said that Zhang Heng, who cultivates the Deviant Art, can ignore the Heart Demon's Tribulation that all cultivators in the Immortal World for billions of years dare not violate, and trample the rules of this world under his feet.

  From the moment Zhang Heng crossed over into this world, he had already broken one of its greatest iron laws.

  This also represents a certain significance that Zhang Heng cannot consider at this moment, perhaps when he reaches a higher level in the future, he will naturally understand.

  In theory, as long as Zhang Heng is given enough "external objects" with the conditions for alchemy, he can even cultivate his transformation skills to the ninth level in one breath.

  By then, he could roam freely in all directions without any enemies, reaching an eternal state of indestructibility.

  But theory is just theory, and in reality, Zhang Heng can't obtain so many "external objects", unless he really goes to rob the entire cultivation world. But at this moment, Zhang Heng doesn't dare to make a move that's equivalent to suicide.

  Zhang Heng had his eyes on the formation plate in Old Man Guo's hand, and since he himself possessed a Golden Token that could break the rules of the Immortal World, he naturally wouldn't let this opportunity slip away.

  At this moment, he must get more trump cards to counter the old ancestor of Ouyang at the end of the Dan period and find a chance to turn over.

  Poor Guo and his grandson were completely deceived by Zhang Heng.

  Of course, Zhang Heng would naturally not just throw the old man and his grandson to one side. If possible, he would try his best to fulfill his promise. If it was really impossible, then there was no way around it.

  Zhang Heng believed that as his own strength increased, his ability to refine the spiritual energy of the Void would also increase accordingly. At that time, he might really be able to replace this child and wash his marrow and bones.

  As long as he can raise his Variant Skill to the third level, Zhang Heng will have a 70-80% chance of success. The premise is that Guo Feng can wait until Zhang Heng has cultivated his Variant Skill to this stage in his lifetime.

  As for the secret of his abnormal strength, Zhang Heng naturally wouldn't tell anyone else, no matter how much Zhao Rui asked, he wouldn't respond with a single word.

  But the other party would never have thought that Zhang Heng could defy the highest law of the entire Xianxia realm.

  Zhao Rui looked at Zhang Heng with some annoyance, but could do nothing about it and had to follow behind him, sulking.

  Before long, several people passed by a relatively bustling road.

  The monks trading on this street are obviously much higher than those who passed by before, and even the foundation-building monks can often be seen. Moreover, the items traded are also of a higher level, and various shops and buildings on the street have rare treasures that cultivators need to trade.

  At this moment, a woman with extraordinary temperament and beauty walked over from the opposite side. Even in the midst of this bustling city, she couldn't hide the elegant and refined aura that surrounded her.

  Walking through the bustling and crowded streets, as if everyone became her foil, a pure white soft dress perfectly showed off her slender and beautiful figure in front of everyone.

  Still those eyes like a deep valley orchid, emitting a transparent color that sees through your thoughts.

  The newcomer was none other than Xianyun Sect's Tian Zhaonv, also known as Luo Cingshu with the alias Luodong Fairy.

  Zhang Heng's heart tightened as soon as he saw this woman. Since that time when he saw Luo Ningxue, he had put her in the category of non-human and did not want to have any dealings with her.

  At this moment, what slightly surprised Zhang Heng was that Luo Ningxue's cultivation had advanced another step, reaching the late stage of Qi Refining.

  But Zhang Heng was already used to such a rapid cultivation speed, and next to him was an even more abnormal Zhao Rui.

  Just as I was about to avoid her, Zhao Rui walked up with an excited face and said with a smile: "Luo Shizi, we meet again. Don't worry, I've already found that Li lunatic and given him some trouble, so I've avenged you."

  Luo Ning's clear and transparent eyes paused slightly on Zhao Rui's body, said a word of thanks, and then shifted to Zhang Heng's body.

  Those seemingly eternal calm eyes suddenly rippled with a wave, she looked at Zhang Heng in slight surprise for a few moments before walking up to him.

  Zhang Heng felt that this Luoxianzi's gaze at him was somewhat strange, making him feel uneasy all over, as if some secret had been discovered by the other person.

  "Master Luo's sister, this is Tang Shixiong from the Wind Slashing Sect. You should know him." Zhao Rui hastily introduced Zhang Heng to Luo Xue.

  "Of course we know each other, we met just a short while ago."

  Still without stopping, Luo Ningxue gradually approached Zhang Heng.

  Looking at Luo Bingxue's increasingly approaching perfect figure and that exquisite angelic face as white as porcelain, Zhang Heng subconsciously shifted slightly backwards, his mouth somewhat flustered as he said: "What do you want to do?"

  Zhao Rui, who was standing beside her, also found it strange. Why was Luo Xianzi getting so close to Zhang Heng? What did she want to do?

  Could it be that she wants to take liberties with me? This thought suddenly occurred to Zhang Heng's mind.

  Finally, when she walked to a distance of about two feet from Zhang Heng, Luo Congxue stopped, the elegant and refined fragrance like orchid spread around Zhang Heng's body, making his mind slightly dizzy for a moment.

  Looking at the breathtaking beauty right in front of him, Zhang Heng didn't dare to indulge in wild fantasies like last time. After all, Luo Xianzi possessed a certain divine power that could see through people's hearts.

  Although Zhang Heng possessed a divine sense comparable to that of the Foundation Establishment stage, it should have been difficult for his opponent to see through his thoughts and ideas like last time, but Zhang Heng still had some guard against this woman.

  Luo Ningxue stood opposite Zhang Heng, with her back to Zhang Rui. She gazed quietly at Zhang Heng, her lips slightly parted and moved subtly a few times. Then she looked at Zhang Heng with profound meaning in her eyes, without greeting Zhao Rui, and left just like that.

  "Hey, Luo Shi Jie..." Zhao Rui shouted a few times, but could only watch as Luo Ning Xue walked into the crowd and soon disappeared from view.

  "Tang Shixiong, why did Luo Shijie look at you a few times and then suddenly leave? Did you offend him in the past?" Zhao Rui asked relentlessly.

  Zhang Heng shook his head and said, "I'm not familiar with her."

  "I don't believe it." Zhao Rui curled his lip, but Zhang Heng didn't tell the truth, and he had no way to do so.

  Zhang Heng remained calm and said to Old Man Guo not far away: "You continue to lead the way."

  "Is is." Old Guo also saw the strange atmosphere just now, but he was also very aware of not speaking too much, and continued to lead Zhang Heng to another street.

  After walking for about half an incense stick's time, several people arrived at a dilapidated residence.
