At the beginning of Niujia Village, my sister-in-law and I depended on each other.

"Yes, in Shaolin Temple."

Wang Chongyang nodded slightly, as if he was not surprised by Niu Dingtian's reaction. He sighed and said, "The reason why Zen Master Kuhui left Shaolin Temple was because of the disagreement with other senior officials because of that person."

"Some people don't know the truth and just regard that man as a great monk. But when Master Kuhui was a child, he accidentally saw with his own eyes that man sucked a great monk alive and turned him into a dried corpse."

"Many years later, many high monks in Shaolin Temple disappeared inexplicably. He could not bear to see the Shaolin tradition cut off, so he fled to the Western Regions under the pretext of temple changes and founded the Western Shaolin lineage."

Sucked into a mummy? Could it be that the old thief also has a variant version of the North Sea Divine Art?
Niu Dingtian's eyes narrowed slightly, and his heart was unable to calm down. At this moment, he suddenly remembered the appearance of Qiu Qianren's dried corpse.

Thinking back to the sudden death of the Sutra Protector in the Sutra Repository, Arhat's demon-subduing skills became agitated, and he suddenly felt as if he was floating through the gates of hell.

If I hadn't used breathing techniques to suppress it and my eyelids hadn't twitched wildly to warn me, I might have been reincarnated again.

No matter how miraculous that breathing method was, he didn't have the confidence that he could be better than a demigod. If someone could break the void, who else could he be but a demigod?
He picked up the teacup and drank it all in one gulp. The fragrance slowly flowed into his stomach, and Niu Dingtian's emotions calmed down a little.

He has never lost his composure like this since he entered the innate realm. However, it is not shameful, after all, he has indirectly fought against an old monster in the celestial realm.

"Please ask the Taoist priest to find someone else. I am from a small family and I cannot deal with such a person. If he wants to stay, he can stay in Shaolin Temple."

After sitting down, Niu Dingtian stroked the teacup in his hand, thought about it, and directly refused.

Since that person can hardly walk out of the Bodhidharma Cave, why should I be afraid of him? He can suck whoever he wants, as long as he doesn't harm ordinary people, I will just stay away from him and settle accounts with him when I enter the heaven.

After receiving the reply, Wang Chongyang showed a helpless smile on his face, as if he was not surprised by Niu Dingtian's rejection.

He pointed at the old turtle in the pond, then at the Heavenly Sword on the table, and said, "Young friend, don't you understand yet? You have been targeted by someone for a long time. Whether you go or not, he will come to find you."

"The Lord of Community Thunder killed the spirit of the ancient weapon and suppressed the ancient energy. The weapon that can attract community thunder must have a living being, otherwise why would the monk ask for it? You know, for a strong man in the realm of heaven and man, if he can get a glimpse of the supreme secret, it is not impossible to find the legendary Taoist immortal path."

"And that spirit turtle, it has more energy than even a powerful innate person like me. It must have been born and grown in a place with abundant spiritual energy. Do you know what this means to a powerful celestial being? It means that it is very likely that we will find the legendary spiritual spring."

"Don't do it!"

Niu Dingtian refused bluntly, picked up the charcoal tongs on the table, picked up the charcoal under the tea stove, and said nonchalantly: "I have something important to do. That guy is hiding in Shaolin and harming the Shaolin monks. Let's wait until he has the courage to come out of the cave."

He didn't have a good impression of monks. There were corpses everywhere at the foot of Lingshan Mountain. Although it was a myth, it was also reality. He would never risk his life for a vegetarian monk.

"Young man, do you really think that the devil can't get out of the Bodhidharma Cave?" Wang Chongyang was silent for a while and suddenly asked.

Niu Dingtian was stunned when he heard this, his eyelids could not help but twitch, and he forced a smile and said: "Master, please don't fool me. The way of heaven is constant and has its own order. If you can get out, I'm afraid you would have come to find me long ago."

Wang Chongyang shook his head and said, "It's not that I can't get out of the cave, but the cost of getting out is too high. Every time I go out of the cave, a large number of innate masters will die. Otherwise, why do you think I faked my death to escape, and why so few innate masters show up in the world?"

Niu Dingtian's heart trembled, and he stared at the old Taoist in front of him, and asked in surprise: "Master, are you saying... that I come out of the cave only to absorb the martial arts of the innate people, or... the essence?"

"Otherwise, why would I call him a devil?" Wang Chongyang let out a long sigh.

He added: "The imperial cities of various countries are blessed by the luck of the people. The closer the heavenly beings get, the greater the backlash from heaven and earth. That's why the old ancestor of the Song court, Sunflower, can live to this day. Some say he was an eunuch in the later years of Emperor Taizong, but whether it's true or not, no one knows."

"Zhao Guangyi?" Niu Dingtian raised his eyebrows, thought for a moment, and said in surprise: "If that's true, then he is more than 200 years old?"

Wang Chongyang nodded and said, "The innate strong men in the royal family are relatively safe, but the rest of the people must always be on guard against the threat of that demon."

“Originally, I thought that people like me who are born with innate powers could only hide away. But after learning about one person’s deeds, I decided to find helpers to completely destroy that demon.”

“Thirty years ago, there was a person at the Half-Step Heavenly Man level who was seriously injured by the devil’s sneak attack. Afterwards, the devil fled back to Shaolin Temple, but the person was seriously injured and shattered into thin air. No one knows whether he is dead or alive in the end.”

"Master, do you know who that person is?" Niu Dingtian was quite uneasy and asked impatiently.

Wang Chongyang paused, put down the teacup in his hand, his clear eyes sparkled, and he said in a deep voice: "Sword Demon!"

"Sword Demon? Dugu Qiubai?"

Niu Dingtian was stunned for a moment, then exclaimed in surprise.

“Young friend, do you know?” Wang Chongyang was startled, a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes, and then he couldn’t help but praise: “Sure enough, the name suits the person!”

He paused and sighed, "I only know that he is called Sword Demon. As for his real name, no one has told it. Innate masters rarely show up in the martial arts world and are not known to the world. Otherwise, with Sword Demon's skills, he should have been famous in the martial arts world long ago."

Not only do I know him, he is also my master. Niu Dingtian suddenly felt proud, smiled modestly, and said, "Master, it is indeed my master."

"Cough cough~"

As soon as these words were spoken, Wang Chongyang on the opposite side accidentally choked on the tea in his mouth.

He stretched out his hand to calm down, then raised his head and looked at Niu Dingtian with a frown, almost saying, "Why do you have to tease me, young man?"

Niu Dingtian raised his sword-like eyebrows. After all, I am a person of status. Why should I flatter others?

Therefore, there was some dissatisfaction in his tone, and he said lightly: "Master, you don't believe me?
Wang Chongyang remained silent.

If you say your father is that man's apprentice, I would still believe it. But you? I don't know if you appeared on your father's body thirty years ago.

Niu Dingtian smiled when he saw this, picked up the teacup and took a sip, then sat there with his eyes slightly lowered and said no more.

He also has his pride in his heart. It was the first time we met, and you talked for a long time and I didn't say a word of disbelief, but as soon as I opened my mouth, you didn't believe it?
Niu Dingtian was not stunned at all after just meeting the Taoist priest, but in order to gain the Taoist priest's trust, he opened his mouth and said something.

"It seems that you are also a man of temperament." Wang Chongyang broke the silence with a wry smile.

He originally thought that Niu Dingtian would start to explain, but he didn't expect him to just throw a tantrum.

After thinking for a while, he changed the subject and said seriously, "I wonder what you think? If that devil is not destroyed, I am afraid we will never have peace in the future!"

“If the innate mortals die out and the martial arts are destroyed, I wonder what kind of harm these great demons will do to survive.”

Niu Dingtian's face was calm as water, and he did not reply immediately. With the innate realm, it would be a sure death for him to fight against the powerful celestial beings, even if they joined forces. He sipped his tea, and Wang Chongyang did not urge him, but just looked at him with a serious expression.

When a breeze blew into the bamboo forest, blowing up the fallen leaves and rippling the green water in the pool, the old turtle floated ashore. Under the moonlight, its huge eyes met Niu Dingtian's eyes.

"If what the Taoist said is true, I can agree to this matter, but there are conditions. Otherwise, I would rather deal with it alone in the future." Niu Dingtian put down the teacup, retracted his gaze, and stared at Wang Chongyang.

"Please tell me, my friend. If it's not too much, I will definitely agree to it!" Wang Chongyang's expression relaxed and he said with a smile.

Niu Dingtian pondered and said, "How to attack? I will listen to your instructions in the future, but the time must be five years later. Within five years, you must attack with all your strength for me once."

After hearing this, Wang Chongyang hesitated a little, and his thick gray eyebrows seemed to be twisted into a ball. After a while, his face became firm, and he said in a deep voice: "I agree!"

……

"Have you ever seen a strong man in the realm of heaven and man?" After Wang Chongyang left quietly, Niu Dingtian came to the pond and looked at the old turtle in the water with a frown.

When they met eyes just now, he already knew what it meant when it gave him a look.

The old turtle nodded, with a hint of deep fear in his eyes.

Niu Dingtian's mind moved, he squatted on the shore and asked, "If the old Taoist priest and I are counted as one person, how many people do you think are a match?"

"Sneeze~"

The old turtle was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then came to his senses, a look of contempt appeared in his eyes. He snorted disdainfully at Niu Dingtian, and dived into the water with a splash.

"Is this... no hope at all?" Niu Dingtian stared blankly at the ripples on the water and muttered to himself.

Early next morning

When the red glow in the east shone on the top of the mountain, everyone on the mountain got up, did morning exercises, and had meals as usual.

Although Niu Dingtian looked calm, the women in front of him still noticed something unusual about him at the breakfast table.

"Why are you looking at me, sister-in-law?" Niu Dingtian picked up another fried bun and was about to put it into his mouth when he saw Chen Jiner and Han Xiaoying looking at him.

Apart from his good sister Guaibaoer who was quietly drinking rice porridge, there was a hint of dissatisfaction on the pretty face of Miss Huang opposite.

"Uncle, did you forget something today?" Chen Jiner asked with a smile.

"Forgot something?"

Niu Dingtian looked confused.

He glanced at Miss Huang and saw Han Xiaoying smiling. He suddenly reacted and praised Miss Huang with a smile: "Rong'er is a good cook. It smells so good!"

"Huh, true or false!"

Miss Huang pouted and snorted.

It turned out that every time they sat together to eat, as long as Miss Huang was cooking that day, he could always taste the food and quickly give her a thumbs up, but he didn't expect that today would be an exception.

"Of course it's true!" Niu Dingtian stuffed the fried bun into his mouth and said vaguely.

He drank the remaining half bowl of rice porridge in one gulp. He looked at the three beauties in front of him and said with a smile, "I was just thinking about something and forgot about Rong'er's contribution. It just so happens that I have something to tell you now."

Seeing the three girls looking at him, even the good boy who was drinking porridge raised his head blankly. Niu Dingtian pondered for a moment and said, "I plan to start my retreat tonight. This time it may take a long time."

"When I'm not here, everything will proceed according to the plan I left behind. If something serious happens, you and Fentian will discuss and decide together. But remember that no matter what happens, your safety must be the most important."

"Also, apart from informing you, only Fentian knows about my retreat. You are not allowed to tell anyone else. Do you understand?"

As he spoke, Niu Dingtian's expression unconsciously became serious. He was indeed worried that if the news got out, that old bald man would come to his door.

"Brother Niu, what happened?" Miss Huang reacted and a hint of anxiety appeared on her pretty face.

Niu Dingtian smiled and said, "It's just that my martial arts have reached a bottleneck and I need to make a breakthrough. Don't think too much about it."

"Okay, as long as everything is normal, hurry up and eat. I have something to tell others later."

So, in the depressing atmosphere, several people finished their breakfast absent-mindedly, and Niu Dingtian called everyone else over one by one and gave them some instructions.

After Guo Jing left, Yang Kang hesitated for a moment, looked at Niu Dingtian, and whispered, "Uncle Master, can you cure his stupidity?"

Niu Dingtian was stunned for a moment, then he reacted, put down the teacup in his hand, stared at him and said, "Are you willing to recognize him?"

Yang Kang was silent for a while and then nodded.

Niu Dingtian frowned and tapped the table with his index finger unconsciously. He had originally planned to solve Yang Tiexin's stupidity problem after the wedding.

After thinking it over, he nodded to Yang Kang and reminded him, "Master can cure him, but you have to know who he should see and who he shouldn't see, Kang'er."

"Uncle Master, don't worry. Kang'er knows what's going on." Yang Kang's face relaxed and he quickly made the assurance.

Finally, Yang Kang got a small pill from Niu Dingtian and left the hall in silence.

Yang Tiexin was just bewitched. Although the spiritual spring water could not cure Guaibao's stupidity, it could be tried first.

But Niu Dingtian never expected that this guy would suddenly come to his door again in the morning, put down a piece of paper and left.

Niu Dingtian picked up the paper and was shocked as soon as he unfolded it. He saw three big characters written on it:

Divorce Letter! (End of this Chapter)
