The Alternative Way of Enlightenment

Chapter 34: I heard it, fellow Taoist, please stay
Liu Shan slowly flew back along the original route. He saw that many people were still rushing in his direction. When he met people with few people and low cultivation, Liu Shan would directly go down and make them into Jingyuan Pills. When he met people with high cultivation, Liu Shan would secretly release the Lihuo Shenlu and collect them in.

When he encountered a large crowd, Liu Shan would hide away. He killed several groups of people along the way, but when Liu Shan returned to the city, it was almost dawn.

Liu Shan walked into Ziwei City in a swagger, and then returned to the restaurant to stay.

For the next two days, during the day, Liu Shan would find a stone shop to gamble on stones, and then fly out of the city at night and turn all those who followed him into Essence Pills.

For three consecutive days, Liu Shan was safe and sound, and everyone knew that Liu Shan was not someone to be trifled with.

Liu Shan also planned to leave. He had killed too many people in the past three days, and he had a pile of Essence Pills. If he didn't leave now, he would be unable to leave when the real masters came.

At dawn, Liu Shan used the method of changing the world to transform himself into a simple and honest young man. Then he ate his breakfast slowly and walked towards the city gate.

When we reached the city gate, we suddenly came towards a group of young monks. They were dressed in uniform, and although their cultivation was not high, they all looked confident. It seemed that they were disciples of a small sect nearby.

Liu Shan nodded at them kindly, then stepped aside to let them pass first. They did not respond to Liu Shan either.

When the leader passed by Liu Shan, his nose suddenly twitched, and then he did not stop and continued to walk towards the city.

Liu Shan waited until they all passed before walking out of the city, then flew towards the small town he had passed by before.

After Liu Shan walked out of the city, the leader stopped walking as he passed by them. A man behind him stepped forward and asked, "Senior Brother?"

The leader waved his hand to stop him. The others stopped talking. Then he stared at the direction where Liu Shan left, with a strange light flashing in his eyes.

Although Liu Shan did not sense the gaze from behind, he noticed the man's nose twitching when he passed by him. He decided to fly slower to see if there would be any fish that would take the bait.

Sure enough, after flying for not long, the group of people caught up with us.

"Please stay, fellow Taoist." The leading man caught up with Liu Shan.

Hearing this, Liu Shan frowned and thought to himself that it was really unlucky. Then he suppressed his dissatisfaction, sorted out his emotions, and turned back with a smile on his face.

"I wonder what advice these brothers have for you."

"It's not really a matter of instruction. We brothers and sisters see that you have an extraordinary temperament and don't seem like an ordinary person. So we wanted to say hello to you and get to know you." The man said with a smile, pointing at his fellow brothers behind him.

"Brother, you are too kind." Liu Shan replied perfunctorily. He has been in a bad mood since he heard the man say "Fellow Taoist, please stay".

"We are from the nearby Qingye Sect. I am the sect's eldest senior brother, Ma Gudao." When the man mentioned that he was the eldest senior brother, his body straightened unconsciously.

"Brother, you can tell from the looks of it that you are from a big sect. I wonder which sect you are from." Ma Gudao continued to ask Liu Shan.

"I am Liu Shan from Taixuan Sect and Zhuofeng." Liu Shan was a little impatient.

"Taixuanmen?" The man muttered softly, frowning slightly.

Although Taixuan Sect is not as good as those holy places in the entire Eastern Wilderness, it is also a well-known super sect that has been passed down for countless years. It is also famous in the entire Eastern Wilderness. All cultivators in the Eastern Wilderness have heard of it.

"So you are a senior disciple of Taixuan Sect. I am so sorry for your disrespect. I have also participated in the party hosted by Hua Yean, the successor of Xingfeng of your Taixuan Sect." Ma Gudao said.

"Oh." Liu Shan responded. How could he know who Hua Ye'an was? He hadn't been in Xingfeng for long, and even the elders couldn't recognize all of them, let alone some people with the surname Hua. There were too many people with the surname Hua in Xingfeng.

Ma Gudao seemed to want to see something from Liu Shan's face, but Liu Shan's face was full of impatience.

"I wonder if Brother Liu has heard that an old man opened up a piece of divine source in Shifang a few days ago?" Ma Gudao asked deliberately.

"I know. The news has spread and everyone envies him. Brother Ma, if there is nothing else, I will leave first. We will meet again next time." Liu Shan didn't want to waste time talking to him anymore. He had been silent for a long time and kept asking questions. He also kept asking "fellow Taoist, please stay". Liu Shan was too bothered by this sentence.

After Liu Shan finished speaking, he turned around and flew away, not caring about the group of people in front of him.

Ma Gudao stared at Liu Shanfei's back with hesitation on his face.

A fellow apprentice came forward from behind and said, "Brother, the people have already left. Should we take action?"

Ma Gudao's eyes gradually became sharp, "Follow him first, he flew towards the direction of the sect, and now he is in our territory. No matter if he is a disciple of Taixuan Sect or not, let's attack together."

He was flying slowly without using the Instant Time Technique. He was waiting for the person behind him to make a move.

He knew that the group of people behind him must have discovered something. They had just been testing the divine source and the sect. When they met for the first time, that Ma Gudao must have smelled something. He really had a dog nose.

Liu Shan flew slowly for about half a day. However, no one came forward to stop him. Liu Shan was a little confused. Did he guess wrong? Or was he frightened by his own Taixuanmen?

He was definitely not wrong. During the second conversation, the man's nose twitched several times. Liu Shan saw the small town in the distance, which was the small town he asked for directions last time. Liu Shan was about to speed up and fly over, but suddenly a group of people appeared in front of him. It was Ma Gudao and his fellow apprentices.

Ma Gudao no longer had the gentle attitude he had just used during the conversation.

With a murderous look on his face, he shouted at Liu Shan, "How dare you, you little brat who is not afraid of death, pretend to be a disciple of Taixuan Sect! Today I will clean up the mess for Taixuan Sect."

"Are you qualified to clean up the Taixuan Sect?" Although he was a little angry when he heard him call him a little brat, Liu Shan was not impulsive. After all, he had expected it and was waiting for him.

A disciple from a small sect had such a low vision that after learning about the divine source, he dared to block the way without even caring about his own life.

"You are so stubborn. If you hand over the divine source today, I will forgive you for impersonating Taixuan Sect. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless!" Ma Gudao said sanctimoniously.

Liu Shan looked at Ma Gudao who was still pretending to be good, and he really had no interest in him. He had wanted to learn from him and see what the difference was between him and his peers, but seeing his expression, he lost interest.

A talented disciple sent from a small sect thought he had reached the Dao Palace realm and dared to attack others without finding out the details. He was too ignorant.

However, Liu Shan was not in a hurry to take action. He saw that Ma Gudao's fellow apprentices were actually setting up a formation to block the surroundings, which was exactly what Liu Shan wanted. He was skilled and bold, so he just waited for them to set up the formation.

Liu Shan was bored waiting, so he asked Ma Gu curiously, "How can you be so sure that I have the Divine Source? It was clearly an old man who cut out the Divine Source before?"

"My methods are mysterious and unpredictable. How can a little thief like you understand them?" Ma Gudao replied disdainfully.

Liu Shan guessed that he probably couldn't help playing with the Divine Source last night, so there should be a trace of his aura left on him.

He should have smelled it when he walked past Ma Gudao just now. He really has a dog's nose.

When Liu Shan saw Ma Gudao’s fellow apprentices gathered around him, he realized that they had already set up the formation.

It's time to send them on their way.

By practicing the secret star technique, Liu Shan's body fell into darkness, and bits of golden light began to light up. The golden light grew bigger and bigger, and turned into stars. These stars orbited Liu Shan like satellites orbiting a main star.

A flying sword flew out of Ma Gudao's mouth. The sword carried a colorful sword light and turned into a colorful rainbow and shot towards Liu Shan. The colorful rainbow was very fast and arrived in front of Liu Shan in the blink of an eye.

Liu Shan did not dodge either. He wanted to try out the power of the rainbow sword energy, so he let the protective ability of the Star Secret Art automatically block the rainbow sword light.

As it flew closer, Liu Shan was still distractedly looking at the attacking flying sword.

This rainbow flying sword turned out to be a real flying sword. It had no handle, only a blade. Not only was the sword light colorful, but the blade was also colorful. Liu Shan guessed that this flying sword should be made of different materials of divine iron, smelted.

The flying sword was only the size of a palm, and even Liu Shan, who was distracted, could feel its sharpness.

The flying sword seemed to have pierced through the void directly, emerging from the void and coming in front of Liu Shan. It carried endless power, and the sword body carried infinite light as it rushed towards Liu Shan.

A golden star beside Liu Shan suddenly flew off its track and rushed towards the oncoming sword.

The flying sword was instantly stopped by the golden stars.

It was like a speeding train suddenly stopped, the scene was very strange.

The huge might suddenly disappeared, and the flying sword that was just so powerful stopped in the air. It was directly dissolved by Liu Shan's star secret technique.

The secret star arts of Taixuanmen Xingfeng can cultivate the true power of the stars.

These golden stars are condensed from the power of stars. They not only look like stars, but also have their own gravity, gravitational force, etc., which are not much different from real stars. Although small, they have all the necessary facilities.

When the cultivator reaches a high level of cultivation, each star will become a real star, the kind that can support life.

Normally, Liu Shan's body is like a main star, with small golden stars surrounding him. When in use, the small golden stars will become larger, carrying infinite gravity to press down on the enemy, or using the suction force generated by itself to suck the enemy.

However, to suck the enemy in, one needs an overwhelming advantage, and it is only suitable for the big to bully the small.

Liu Shan usually likes to use the Star Mystic Arts when fighting against enemies. Although he has learned many secret arts, the ones from Lingxu Dongtian and Lihuo Shenjiao are too rubbish, and Liu Shan doesn't use them because he thinks they are not powerful enough.

The power of Zhuo Feng's natural secret technique is almost the same as that of the star secret technique, but the style is too gentle, killing the opponent silently, which Liu Shan does not like.

The Secret Art of the Stars, with its inherent sense of mystery and domineering offensive, is Liu Shan’s favorite.

Of course, Liu Shan preferred the Heaven Devouring Magic Skill and the Nine Secret Techniques. But after all, they were the imperial secret techniques created by the ruthless emperor, and Liu Shan could only use those few proficiently. In addition, the ruthless emperor had a bad reputation, so he should use them less in front of others.
