“Entanglement Demonic Arts?” Ye Suyi was startled, for it was her first time hearing the name. Was that the name of the Forbidden Technique? But how did Gu Changge find out about it?

 

Gu Changge did not explain anything. Entanglement Immortal Might was actually a branch of the Devouring Demonic Arts.

 

Back then, when the Celestial Ancient Continent opened up when he arrived at the Upper Realm, with the help of Entanglement Immortal Might, he took control of the Celestial Ancient Races.

 

However, the Entanglement Immortal Might he had used was not the original one. It was a branch of it.

 

The word ‘Entanglement’ in its name pretty much summed up the essence of the technique.

 

Entanglement Immortal Might was divided into the core and the branch skills. The person who practised the core skill could easily determine the fates of those who practised the branch skill. Moreover, the person could also absorb the cultivation of those who practised the branch skill.

 

Gu Changge preferred to call them the source technique and the derivative technique.

 

There was only one source technique. A derivative technique born from it could become an independent fake source technique.

 

A fake source technique could give birth to even more derivative techniques.

 

It was like a tree that could continuously develop branches, and every branch could independently develop more twigs and leaves. These twigs and leaves could keep on producing more of the same things. As the tree developed endlessly, it would eventually cover the entire sky.

 

At this moment, Gu Changge was puzzled as to how those from Purple Sky Mountain acquired the Entanglement Immortal Might. What more, they regarded it as a Forbidden Technique.

 

He had only taught Entanglement Immortal Might to Chan Hongyi before. Even when he was in the Celestial Ancient Continent, he did not teach anyone the core Entanglement Immortal Might.

 

[Where did those from Purple Sky Mountain acquire the Entanglement Immortal Might? Did something happen during a period I was not aware of?]

 

“Since you’ve practised the Entanglement Immortal Might, there’s now a connection between us. I’ll teach you the other half of the Technique.”

 

Gu Changge snapped back to reality and took a look at her. Without waiting for her reply, he pointed a finger at the centre of her brows.

 

At that moment, Ye Suyi felt as if a light shone on her dark pineal gland. It turned into a seed and started growing there.

 

“It’s the Source Seed of Entanglement Immortal Might,” Gu Changge said impassively.

 

Ye Suyi’s cultivation did not belong to her. Instead, it came from her Little Sister, Zi Susu.

 

The other party regarded Ye Suyi as a guinea pig, but she was not aware of the latter’s status as a Variable. The one she had practised was not the source technique either.

 

She waited for Ye Suyi to learn the technique before she observed the latter and confirmed her cultivation method.

 

This led to the outcome that her own strength would become the source of nutrients for Ye Suyi.

 

This was the reason the technique was called ‘Entanglement’. Zi Susu’s power was entangled with that of Ye Suyi.

 

Also, the other reason was that the existence of the Entanglement Immortal Might was special.

 

It was not a Celestial Technique or a secret cultivation method. Instead, it was a way of cultivating one’s power according to the Heavenly Dao. It took away the surplus and made up for the deficiency. One’s lifespan, talent, Fortuity, and etc would be consumed in order to increase one’s power.

 

This led to the outcome that the person who practised this technique would believe that it was a Heaven-defying cultivation method, which allowed him to increase his power at an unprecedented speed. He would be crazy about it. In truth, his potential and future would be worn away.

 

“The Source Seed?” Ye Suyi was bewildered, not understanding Gu Changge’s meaning.

 

She just felt that after the light appeared in her pineal gland, she could start using her hidden power.

 

Gu Changge nodded without explaining anything. Since Ye Suyi already had the Source Seed, it was only a matter of time before she understood the secrets of the Entanglement Immortal Might.

 

He could seize the chance to find out more about her background.

 

“Young Master, can I stay by your side from now on?” Ye Suyi did not think deeply about the meaning of the Source Seed. She felt that Gu Changge had agreed to let her stay by saying all this to her. She was cheerful, but she still meekly clenched her sleeves.

 

Gu Changge nodded slightly.

 

“I’ll always obey your orders and not bring you any trouble.” Upon getting the man’s approval, Ye Suyi was overjoyed. The anxiety and uneasiness in her heart were gone.

 

Without a word, Gu Changge looked into the distance and fell into his thoughts.

 

The mist on the Purple Return River had thickened. Although it was nighttime, the place was fully illuminated. The area was shrouded in a mist, making the buildings look like they were hovering in mid-air. However, no one was heard singing.

 

The arrival of the Seventh Crown Prince of the Beast Court, Di Kun, and his battle against the Dao Realm old servant sent a shock wave across the entire Southbarren Ancient Territory.

 

Following the end of the battle, many cultivators from different territories were coming over to look into the matter.

 

The news of this incident quickly spread to the rest of the ancient territory and the universe.

 

Many cultivators were aware that the old Dao Realm expert from the Land of Celestial Suffering was not a match for Di Kun. Now that he was defeated, it was a wonder whether he was dead or alive.

 

The Son of the King of the Land of Celestial Suffering was probably doomed as well.

 

Naturally, Disciples from many Forces were gleeful about what had happened to Chu Xiao.

 

That was because, at Waterfront Chamber back then, Chu Xiao recklessly used a Forbidden Artifact and killed many innocent cultivators. He deserved this outcome.

 

Furthermore, the war between the Land of Celestial Suffering and the Beast Court broke out because the Ninth Crown Prince of the Beast Court was killed by a powerful cultivator from the Land of Celestial Suffering.

 

It was only reasonable that Di Kun came to this place to avenge his Youngest Brother’s death.

 

Although Land of Celestial Suffering was considered a Supreme Force in the Primary Hope Civilisation, its might was not as ample as that of Purple Sky Mountain or Imperial Celestial Palace.

 

Nevertheless, they developed quickly in the past epochs, which was why they were targeted by many Forces.

 

Now that Land of Celestial Suffering and the Beast Court were at war, these Forces were gleeful. It was hoped that the two of them would be mutually damaged so that the others could reap the benefits.

 

The more intense the war between Land of Celestial Suffering and the Beast Court was, the more pleased they were.

 

Certainly, some cultivators noticed that not long after Chu Xiao of Land of Celestial Suffering got into a conflict with a mysterious white-clothed man and was forced to expose his identity, the Seventh Crown Prince of the Beast Court came to get his revenge. It was too quick.

 

Was it merely a coincidence that the Seventh Crown Prince happened to be in Southbarren Ancient Territory?

 

All sorts of speculation circulated during that period.

 

Some people suspected that someone in the Land of Celestial Suffering had been sending messages to the Beast Court. Knowing that the Seventh Crown Prince was nearby, he informed him about Chu Xiao’s presence. That was why the Seventh Crown Prince had come over so quickly.

 

Anyway, that was the situation in the Primary Hope Civilisation. Although the Forces seemed to be getting along well, there were undercurrents beneath the facade.
