When I first saw that Pig Demon in the Dark World, it was wrapped in vines, and initially, I thought it was the Pig Demon's demon technique.

Now it seems, it was entirely due to the vines themselves.

General Wei quieted down and cooperated with Xu Guang to study the vines.

Soon, Xu Guang astonishingly discovered that these vines were a type of war weapon, parasitic inside General Wei, growing vigorously with its demonic power and abundance of spirit, capable of growing astonishingly in the blink of an eye.

Truly...

An extraordinary entity.

No wonder I couldn't grow it under the mountains of the Wanhua Institute; this thing needs to parasitize other creatures to grow.

"Ah Wei, try to see if you can retract it?"

An elephant covered in vines does look quite strange.

General Wei let out a low roar, clumsily attempting to control it.

Soon, the vines began to wither quickly from the tip down, turning into ashes in the air, as if they lost some sort of support.

"Interesting! The Dark World, I didn't expect there to be such a treasure?"

Without intelligence, it needs to parasitize inside another organism and be controlled by them?

And the toughness of the vines increases with the quality of the spirit within the host.

It's entirely a natural, growth-type weapon that can grow together with its master.

I wonder where that Pig Demon Venerable acquired such vines.

What a great fortune it is.

For a moment, he was a bit envious, knowing how to use this earlier, he would have utilized it long ago.

General Wei gave him a glare, a bit displeased at his coveting of his little toy.

Xu Guang only thought about it; these vines, though ever-changing and indeed peculiar, were not very suitable for human martial artists, since their use consumes quite a lot.

It's only with the demonic power and spirit of General Wei's size that they can be used to an unimaginable extent.

"Alright, alright, don't worry, this thing will grow on you from now on, but with this, I think starting tomorrow, I should train you."

General Wei was a little stunned.

These vines completely serve as weapons; previously, General Wei, being structurally different from humans, couldn't use weapons, so Xu Guang hadn't tried to let it cultivate human martial techniques.

But now with the vines, once they go back, he might find a stronger fighting method for General Wei.

After all, in the Dark World, people called him the Divine Elephant. Besides stomping and swinging its trunk, it really seemed a bit lacking in style.

"Your nickname is General Wei, so why not call these vines General Teng?"

Although the vines have no intelligence, Xu Guang still thought he should give them a name.

General Wei seemed quite satisfied with the name and nodded approvingly.

General Teng...

Xu Guang suddenly recalled something; in the past, in the Daoist school, there was the True Martial Emperor, with many titles like the Nine Heavens Demon Cleansing Ancestor Master, True Martial Demon Venerable, Emperor Xuanwu, True Monarch Yousheng Xuantian God...

Under his command were the Turtle and Snake Generals.

He himself was also called True Monarch by people in the Dark World, with Elephant and Vine Generals under his command.

So, does this make him...

A low-end version of the True Martial Emperor?

He couldn't help but show an odd smile...

He spent a whole night researching General Teng, and now the day was bright.

"Alright, with this new method, let's head to Wangdang Mountain to slay demons and vanquish devils!"

Saying this, Xu Guang prepared to ride.

General Wei dodged, raising an eyebrow at Xu Guang. Soon after, several vines appeared behind him, twisting together chaotically.

Xu Guang's forehead showed a hint of a black line.

"Ladders aren't built this way!"

General Wei wasn't embarrassed, played for a while longer, then stopped, not entirely satisfied.

Roar!

'Hungry.'

Xu Guang: ...

Stuffing two Earth Attribute Spirit Crystals into General Wei's mouth, Xu Guang then rode on, carried by General Wei towards the main peak.

Jiang Zi Yun sent a message, there was an important matter to discuss.

...

"The assessment time has been set, and the people from Jiufeng Mountain should all be below your level."

Jiang Zi Yun, sitting in an inn on the main peak, looked at Xu Guang and spoke softly.

Xu Guang nodded.

Jiang Zi Yun continued.

"This time, the assessment's location was determined by Elder Yi of the Dianyin Sect. Have you heard of the Ten Thousand People Pit Ghostly Land?"

The areas of Zouchuan Dao and Yongzhou have always been battlefields between the Central Plains and the Barbarians.

The Mass Grave is an ancient battlefield from who knows how many years ago, where over ten thousand Fierce Ghosts have formed, considered one of the most dangerous ghostly lands around Wangdang Mountain.

"It is said that the Fierce Ghosts in the Mass Grave are adept at disguising themselves, so you should be careful of that."

Xu Guang nodded.

Xu Guang was actually somewhat looking forward to this assessment; a place like Wangdang Mountain might be a place every martial artist yearns for?

Jiang Zi Yun seemed to remember something, "However, the Ten Thousand People Pit Ghostly Land, although on the outskirts of Wangdang Mountain, is rumored to be an ancient battlefield, hiding tremendous secrets."

Xu Guang became interested, looking earnestly at Jiang Zi Yun.

"Actually, since I found out about this assessment, I've been wondering about its content, so I searched through ancient books, looking for matters related to Wangdang Mountain, and guess what I found?"

Xu Guang cooperatively asked, "What did you find?"

Jiang Zi Yun didn't answer directly, "You should have quite a few Celestial Registers with you now, right?"

Xu Guang nodded. During this time, he had defeated many Sixth and even Fifth Grade experts, more than half of which had Celestial Registers on them.

The Celestial Register is too mysterious and bizarre; he thought it might hide many secrets. By coincidence, when General Wei descended into the Dark World and conducted investigations, he replenished his resources significantly, so he hadn't used them.
