Gate of Immortality

The arrow traveled like lightning as it vanished in the darkness. " Shall we go and check?" Old Ghost proposed. The tri hastened their pace as they arrived there in a minute.

It was a tall building. There was only one window. and it was big as a human head. It was covered with a crisscross bamboo stick, like a net. There was much small space between them. 

The trio sneak arrived in that room. Nobody was there. The black clothed person went ahead and picked his arrow and pointed at the broken cup.

" See? I broke the cup from afar. Hmm, Where is your arrow? Is it collapsed in midway?" The Black clothed person sneered. Yang Shi smiled. He acted like he didn't hear that person and went towards the corner.

He pointed at it. The Black clothed person's eye went wide from shock. Just looking at the cup from afar was almost impossible. But this young man actually hit the corner wall, which was not only even far than the teacup, but also at an odd angle.

" You actually managed to hit the wall." The Black clothed person was surprised.

" Wall? That wasn't my target." Yang Shi snorted. He went ahead and pulled out his arrow. One could see a pea-sized black thing on the arrow tip.

The Black clothed person's eye almost popped out. Yes, It was a bug. Yang Shi targeted a small bug from three hundred meters far in the darkness of night!

The Old Ghost sighed. He already knew the result the moment Yang Shi fired his arrow. He was also pretty much surprised as the black clothed person.

" Well well, Someone is quite boasting about their archery." Yang Shi mocked. He could see that the black clothed person was trembling from shame and rage. Yang Shi cackled at this sight.

" Well, I didn't put any condition back then, as you were sure about your winning. But since you have lost...Bow down before me and call me Master." Yang Shi grinned viciously. The Black clothed man erupted in anger, " WHAT? What the fuck did you just say? Do you even know wh..." Before The Black clothed person could be charged at Yang Shi, Old Ghost held him back.

" Enough. Don't cause more trouble here." The first time, Yang Shi saw Old Ghost talking in a cold tone. In his eyes, The eyes of the old ghost showed a bit of disappointment.

" See, Old Man, It wasn't me who started the things. Well, I will pull back my condition, If you want." Yang Shi saw the black clothed person was fuming in anger. He knew his limit.

" At least you have some conscience, Brat. Don't worry, I will give a proper reward." The Old Ghost smiled. He pulled out an old tattered book and handed it to Yang Shi.

Yang Shi's eyes widened in surprise. It was a Saber technique. Yang Shi's Heaven Evasion Lighting Stealth Art's technique is best used by a sword. Fundamentally, Swords and Sabers are different, so is their techniques. Till now, Yang Shi hasn't chosen a technique for his Heaven Calamity ancient saber.

Since he wanted to master both his Longsword and Saber, Yang Shi needed a powerful Saber technique. " Well well, It seems I should have leech off some more from you." Yang Shi smacked his lips.

" You can If you want to join us..." The Old Ghost probingly said.

" No thanks. I don't want to cast away my carefree life." Yang Shi snickered.

" Tch, See? Who is lying? Brat, You have already entered the match. Kekeke." Old Ghost sinisterly smiled.

" Wh-What do you mean?" Yang Shi's eyes narrowed as he felt, Old Ghost isn't joking.

" All I am saying, Handling the Second Prince won't be easy, as he is desperate to increase his cultivation. He will stop at nothing, to find a suitable cauldron to devour." Old Ghost laughed as he quickly left with the Black clothed person. Yang Shi didn't notice the resentful gaze of the black-clothed person.

..............................................

" I am very disappointed with your conduct today." Old Ghost said with a grave tone. The black clothed person took out his mask and hat.

" But Grandpa..." Yang Shi might think he had a problem in the head if he were to hear the Black Clothed person now. He talked like a girl of 18 years old. No to be precise, A girl in boy's disguise.

" Don't underestimate people, Even they are in places like this. That kid isn't only a genius in the martial path but also a talent in Blacksmithing. You can say he is one of the rare talents." The Old Ghost berated her.

" But he is so arrogant. Humph, Moreover, His cultivation realm is far lower than mine. If not for you, I would have taught him a lesson." The girl harrumphed.

" This is why your elder sister sent you to the field. Those who have an abundance of cultivation resources, battle techniques, or cultivation arts, never know the true path of cultivation. I saw that kid when he was just a meager Spiritual Ascension realm cultivator, But today? He had the aura of a powerful cultivator."

" You may think that he is only at the third stage of the Primordial Spirit realm, But with his hidden strength, He could even defeat the sixth stage cultivator." Old Ghost sighed.

" So you are saying..." The girl spoke.

" No, Not now. I want to test him more." Old Ghost smiled.

............................................

" That Old man knows everything about me and Xia Rong's conversation, eh? Sure, He is an Origin Core realm cultivator. He must have his own methods." Yang Shi thought for a while. Old Ghost knew about the second prince and Bai Ruxue's physique.

" Ke, It seems things will get more interesting in the future. My life has been too dull lately." Yang Shi felt he wanted to enjoy the thrill.

Yang Shi looked at the tattered book. The name of the technique is " Heaven Saber Seven Arts"

" Wow, The name of this technique is very imposing. Yang Shi thought.

" Pah, My memory contained so many overbearing Saber arts. You being happy to just looking a shitty technique, I am so disappointed in you." Samsara Emperor scowled.

" Bruh, Your technique is so fucking high, That I can't use it with my current power." Yang Shi didn't back away.

"It's your inability, Not mine." Samsara Emperor shrugged.

" Bastard." Yang Shi couldn't help but curse loudly. His mood is ruined now, So he kept the tattered book for later use.

"Aha, Since my precious Maid is coming home, I should prepare the gifts." Yang Shi laughed lewdly.

" Pervert." The Golden Egg couldn't help but snort.

Soon a commotion rose in Hundred Flower Lake. A beautiful girl sat in a carriage, With a gaze of resentment. With a look, One could clearly see that the girl's eyes were filled with despair and unwillingness to live anymore.
