Chapter 591

The second concern was whether Tang Shiqing and the others would be in danger if they also entered this illusion.

Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads.

“It looks normal around here, I don’t feel any illusion…”

Tang Shiqing reached out her hand, wanting to give Jiang Randu internal strength to help him calm the blood in his body.

Jiang Randu shook her hand back, smiled, shook his head, and then nodded, saying,

“It seems that the methods left behind by the ancestors are still selective.”

“I think it’s because you, brother-in-law, have the Jiang family bloodline, so you were able to have this opportunity…“

Tang Huayi couldn’t help but ask after listening to the whole process:

”So brother-in-law, what have you learned so far?”

The others were also a little curious.

The methods of the former Demon King were naturally extraordinary.

Jiang Ran’s martial arts were already high, and he had gained such a great fortune…the future was simply unimaginable.

Jiang Ran also thought about it for a moment, and after a while shook his head:

“There are too many things, too mixed up and too messy.

”For the time being, I can’t sort it out.

“However, this legacy left many years ago is now quite different from the martial arts of the present age.

”It cannot be said that everything is inferior to the present, but there are not many that can surpass the martial arts of the present.”

Everyone looked at each other, feeling a bit disappointed.

We had thought that the martial arts passed down by our ancestors would definitely be extremely exquisite and incomparable to what is being taught today.

But Jiang Ran’s words clearly mean that the martial arts of those years are not as good as today’s.

Jiang Ran could tell from their faces what they were thinking, and he gave a wry smile:

“There’s nothing to be disappointed about…

”If you trace it back, there may not even have been the word martial arts.

“The person who first created martial arts could be said to be directly killed by one of your fingers if it were now.

“Martial arts is something that someone started, someone diligently researched, someone innovated, and someone constantly improved…

“Generations of people have devoted their hearts and souls to it, working hard, changing, repairing, fixing flaws, and increasing power.

”When a martial art is first created, it is definitely not as good as it will be 20 years later.

“And 20 years from now, if there are no flaws in the process of inheritance, it will be even stronger than it was 20 years ago.

“Many martial arts are inferior today because the essence of the art has been lost.

“Isn’t it all because of reasons like ‘the secret is not to be passed on to more than six people’, ‘parochialism’, and ‘passing on to male children but not female children’ that the lineage has been broken?

”On the contrary, our Demon Sect has been passed down for thousands of years without ever being broken.

“Just look at the Demon’s Scripture of the Demon King of the Crossing, which can still be used to open the Demon’s Treasure Mirror after so many years.

”This shows how much importance the Demon King’s lineage places on the lineage.”

These words made everyone present nod in agreement.

Ye Jingshuang even said:

“Brother Jiang is right. We are all human, so why should we feel inferior to the past?

”The wisdom of our ancestors should not be underestimated, but neither you nor I should belittle ourselves!“

”Exactly.“

Jiang Ran nodded:

”Well, enough idle talk… We should continue to look for that thing.

“Our ancestors left these two words here to pass down the martial arts of the Demon Sect. There should be other things passed down as well, let’s go find them.

“These things are probably much more important than the gold and silver jewelry outside.”

The group had no objections to this and immediately continued onwards.

However, this resulted in two paths.

One was to the sides of the dragon throne, deep inside the palace, and the other was behind the broken words Tianmo.

Behind that was an entrance.

However, it was not known where it led.

Jiang Ran thought for a moment and did not rush to go in through the entrance immediately.

Instead, he led the group to the back hall first.

Turning around the wall, he pushed open the door.

Behind it was a small courtyard.

On the dome of the courtyard were mountains, rivers, suns, and moons carved.

Above the suns and moons were all nightlights.

They illuminated the entire backyard.

However, most of this backyard was a pool.

It is unknown where the water comes from. There are fish in the water, and it seems that they were startled by the passers-by, leaping out of the water one after another to pay a formal visit to Jiang Ran and the others.

For a moment, splashes of water were heard everywhere, quite lively.

There are tables and chairs by the edge of the pool, and if you look further out, there are houses.

Without waiting for Jiang Ran’s order, the Demon King of the Underworld went over to check it out.

A Zhuo and A Na followed closely behind.

Jiang Ran, on the other hand, was quite curious and came to the edge of the pool. A large, plump fish leaped up, seemingly trying to knock Jiang Ran down, but Jiang Ran caught the fish by the back of its head.

He used the Star-Catching Hand technique he had learned in the illusion.

This is a grappling technique that is also good at catching hidden weapons.

Catching a fish was really easy.

It was just that this fish was much stronger than Jiang Ran had imagined.

In Jiang Ran’s hands, it struggled fiercely, almost like an uninitiated martial artist with a little internal strength.

Jiang Ran suddenly felt a little surprised.

Tang Huayi swallowed:

“Brother-in-law… I’m a little hungry.”

Jiang Ran looked at the fish carefully, suddenly thoughtfully, and said with a smile:

“Why don’t we build a fire and grill the fish?”

“Good!”

Tang Huayi immediately perked up, dragging Ye Jingxue and the princess along as they went to look for firewood.

Unfortunately, there was a lot of gold and silver jewelry in this place, but almost no firewood at all.

This place has existed for an unknown number of years, and even if there was firewood, it would have long since rotted beyond recognition.

As a result, when Tang Huayi returned, she found that Jiang Ran had already gutted the fish.

The tender white flesh of the fish had been shaved off, and Jiang Ran was using a cleaver to remove a piece of the fish and put it in his mouth.

“Raw? Is it fishy?”

Tang Huayi was suddenly curious.

Ye Jingsue said thoughtfully:

“Master once said that raw meat is not inedible, especially fish, which is most suitable for this purpose.

”But you have to be careful when eating it… There may be worm eggs hidden in this fish, and if you eat it carelessly, it can cause cramps.”

Jiang Ran nodded:

“Senior Liu has good insight.

”This is underground snow fish, which is not commonly seen. If you light a fire to cook it, the fragrance of the fish will fill the sky and can be transmitted for ten li.

“It’s fine to eat it raw, it melts in your mouth and has a sweet taste.

”The most important thing is that this underground snow fish is good for the muscles and bones, and can remove internal blood stasis and hidden injuries.

“This effect is lost after cooking.”

“You recognized it right away, and you still asked me to go find firewood?“

Tang Huayi’s eyes widened, and he felt that his brother-in-law was no longer a human being.

Jiang Ran smiled:

”Seeing how greedy you are, I really couldn’t bear to dampen your enthusiasm. Besides, gutting this fish and making it bloody everywhere would also affect your appetite.

“Here, I’ve already cut it up for you, so help yourselves.

”Although this is not very useful to us, we can try it for novelty’s sake.”

While they were talking, An Na and the others had already returned.

He told Jiang Ran that there were three rooms around him. One looked like it was used for daily living, one was used for practicing kung fu, and the other was probably a pill room.

There were definitely more things in the last room of the three.

They were all all kinds of jars and bottles.

Unfortunately, the contents had long since decayed with the passage of time.

Jiang Ran listened and looked at the pool not far away, shaking his head lightly:

“The ancestors were well prepared.

“First, there is the Demon Wall outside, which leads people into a fantasy world.

”If they manage to break out of the fantasy world, they will naturally continue to explore, and discover the residence behind it and the fish in the pool.

“In this way, even if they explore the two side halls again, they should settle down here.

”They eat fish all day long, and with time, their blood will become strong and vigorous. No matter what internal injuries they suffer while practicing martial arts, they can use the fish to heal them.

“Times have changed. When we leave here, it’s hard to imagine what level we’ll reach.”

The princess squatted by the pool, and the fish in the pool were not at all afraid.

They had never seen a human before, and even when their companions were disemboweled and eaten by everyone, they were not afraid.

They were still using their heads to push against the princess’ fingertips.

These fat, big fish really looked a bit cute.

The princess smiled and turned to Jiang Ran, saying:

“Why don’t you stay here for a while?

”It’s a waste to just leave these fish here if you don’t want to eat them.“

”…“

Jiang Ran was speechless for a while:

”If you like, after things are settled outside, I’ll bring you back here and settle down for a while…“

”No need!“

The princess shook her head repeatedly:

”There’s not even a toilet in this place.“

”There is,”

An Na said quickly:

“There is a toilet behind the house.

“It’s a bottomless abyss, and it would probably take a long time to fill it in…”

“…

Tang Huayi’s expression froze, and she felt that the fish in her hand no longer tasted good.

The princess was also speechless for a while.

Only Jiang Ran continued to express his feelings:

”The ancestors were really thorough in their planning, and they really prepared for everything.“

”However, that thing shouldn’t be here. Why don’t we go check out the side halls first?”

The Demon King of the Underworld suggested.

In fact, the most worthwhile exploration at the moment is the entrance behind the Demon Wall.

However, after going down there, it is not known if one can come back.

Therefore, it is better to explore the two side halls first. If there is no gain, then explore the entrance.

Jiang Ran thought about it for a moment and nodded:

“That’s good. After we finish eating, we’ll go.”

The group nodded and took the fish to eat. They soon finished eating the fish, which was not sure how it could withstand their eating style.

Jiang Ran then led the group on a tour of the side halls.

It turned out that one side of the two side halls was a weapons arsenal with all kinds of weapons.

However, most of these weapons have been corroded by moisture, rusted and decayed beyond recognition.

Even if there are a few that are still presentable, they are not impressive to the crowd.

As for the other room, which should have been similar to the General Helm Forbidden Chamber,

there are various bookshelves, but the things on these shelves have also long since turned to dust with time.

In the end, they only found two secret manuals written on gold paper that have survived to the present day.

But when they were held in their hands, one was the “Heavenly Secret of Transforming and Shifting”, and the other was the “Great Freedom Heavenly Demon Ten Thousand Thoughts Technique”.

Moreover, the descriptions of these two martial arts were very different from the present day. After reading them, Tang Huayi shook his head repeatedly.

Everyone’s interest was greatly dampened for the time being, and they had to return to the front of the Demon Wall.

They were ready to go in and find out what was going on.
