Lin Heng walked out of the quiet chamber at this moment.

His tall figure stood at the entrance of the Daoist Temple, gazing solemnly at the woman in the distance.

That woman in green made him feel a sense of danger.

"Boss, be careful!"

The Black Bear Spirit appeared beside him, speaking in an extremely serious tone.

Even when facing the Nine Pearl Monk, the Black Bear Spirit was never afraid and even dared to curse, but at this moment, its gaze at the woman clearly held some tension!

"You recognize her?" Lin Heng asked curiously.

"Of course!"

The Black Bear Spirit replied solemnly, "There are very few in the Demon Race who do not know her!"

"She is the Cyan Snake, who has repeatedly broke into Jinshan Temple, intent on rescuing the White Snake!"

"Is it her?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Heng's face showed a trace of surprise, and he frowned slightly:

"That's not right, why does the Cyan Snake have the aura of Innate True Qi?"

"Isn't she a demon?"

Lin Heng was puzzled.

Although there was still some distance between them, and the other had not displayed any techniques.

The Innate True Qi within Lin Heng allowed him to sense that the same kind of aura was circulating within her!

It was definitely the Innate True Qi from Qingcheng Mountain!

Qingcheng Mountain's Qi Refining Technique is unique in the Cultivation Realm, easily recognizable!

"She and her sister were originally snake demons under Qingcheng Mountain, enlightened and achieving the Dao through the guidance of a Daoist, having the aura of Innate True Qi is very normal."

"Besides, Boss, didn't I mention it to you before?"

"She also knows the Qi Body Origin Flow!"

The Black Bear Spirit said with utmost seriousness.

"Oh?"

Lin Heng displayed a hint of surprise.

But upon reflection, the world indeed held such folk ballads.

Bai Suzhen under Qingcheng Mountain, attained this form after a thousand years in the cave.

The Cyan and White Snakes both achieved the Dao under Qingcheng Mountain, having been enlightened and given opportunities by the Daoist there in their early years, this was indeed nothing to be surprised about.

But why has she come?

Lin Heng frowned, perplexed.

The next second, his hair stood on end.

The Cyan Snake in the distance suddenly flicked her fingers, sending a wisp of cyan light transformed into a sword shadow, piercing through the air to strike.

Feeling the vast spiritual power fluctuation within, Lin Heng barely hesitated, immediately activating the Qi Body Origin Flow.

The cyan light sword shadow, upon contact with Lin Heng's body, was devoured by the Qi Body Origin Flow.

It vanished like a clay ox into the sea.

All this happened in a flash, as the Black Bear Spirit regained its senses, both shocked and angry:

"Xiao Qing Immortal, you have no feud with the Daoist tradition, right?"

"Why this way?"

The Cyan Snake ignored it, merely silently watching Lin Heng.

Lin Heng's gaze was cold, calmly meeting hers.

After a long pause, the Cyan Snake finally spoke slowly, "Your Qi Body Origin Flow has reached perfection, under which Daoist of Qingcheng Mountain are you?"

Lin Heng replied coldly, "What does it have to do with you?"

Trying to out-cool each other?

Lin Heng was even colder than she was.

Cyan Snake was somewhat annoyed by his response, but upon remembering she did strike first to test him, it was natural for him to hold hostility towards her.

"So be it."

"Whether you are a traitor of Qingcheng Mountain or not, you still hold the inheritance of Qingcheng Mountain."

"Handing this thing to you is more appropriate than to other traditions."

The Cyan Snake finished speaking, expressionless as she sent out a wisp of cyan light, the cyan light enveloped an archaic scroll, flying towards the Daoist Temple.

"Boss, be careful!" the Black Bear Spirit reminded.

But Lin Heng simply reached out to receive the scroll, on which flowed the unique Qi of Qingcheng Mountain, with four ancient large characters inscribed.

[Celestial Spirit Sword Qi!]

Lin Heng looked toward the Cyan Snake with some doubt.

The Cyan Snake stated, "This was a Sword Qi Divine Technique comprehended by Master Wenfeng, the previous Sect Leader of Qingcheng Mountain, while exchanging Sword Dao techniques with Master Changqing from Shushan who ascended a thousand years ago!"

"It is primarily guided by Innate True Qi, meant to be inherited by the disciples of Qingcheng Mountain."

"Cultivate it well, this Divine Technique shall certainly become an asset for you in the future."

Her tone was calm, indifferent.

The Black Bear Spirit, however, widened its eyes at the scroll, exclaiming, "This is the Sword Dao Great Divine Technique, Celestial Spirit Sword Qi?!"

"Hiss..."

It gasped, its expression filled with shock and joy.

Clearly, this was an extraordinary Sword Dao Divine Technique.

Lin Heng felt even more puzzled: "You specifically came here just to gift this poor Daoist this item?"

Cyan Snake silently affirmed, her gaze indifferent.

Lin Heng frowned and asked: "There are countless Daoists of Qingcheng Mountain, why specifically give it to this poor Daoist?"

The Black Bear Spirit also looked at the Cyan Snake in confusion, speculating: "Could it be because the Boss helped you kill the Nine Pearl Monk of Jinshan Temple, so you came to repay the favor?"

The Cyan Snake glanced at it without comment, then turned to Lin Heng and said calmly:

"This Divine Technique requires the Qi Body Origin Flow to be cultivated to perfection, those from Qingcheng Mountain with perfected Qi Body Origin Flow are few and far between over the millennium."

Upon hearing this, Lin Heng nodded: "So that's why you tested me."

It was obvious by now that she had deliberately used spiritual power to convert into Sword Qi, to see whether his Qi Body Origin Flow could withstand the strike.

Thinking of this, Lin Heng hesitated for a moment, then said in a deep voice:

"But I must tell you, I indeed am not from Qingcheng Mountain."

"If this item must be handed to someone from Qingcheng Mountain, then I must say, you've given it to the wrong person."

Upon hearing this, doubt clearly appeared in the Cyan Snake's eyes.

But she wasn't one to dig deeply, only saying calmly:

"It doesn't matter anymore."

"Anyway, there's no one in Qingcheng Mountain with the opportunity to inherit this legacy."

"Since you possess Innate True Qi, this fate ought to be yours."

"In this way, perhaps the tradition of Qingcheng Mountain will not be severed..."

Her calm words carried an indescribable hint of regret.

Lin Heng frowned slightly, puzzled: "Qingcheng Mountain is one of the Five Great Daoist Sacred Lands, with profound heritage, how could there be talk of tradition being severed?"

The Cyan Snake did not explain, only saying mildly:

"Alright, I have done what that real Master instructed."

"Study the Celestial Spirit Sword Qi well."

Having said this, the Cyan Snake prepared to leave, only to suddenly remember something.

She turned back, her beautiful face devoid of any expression, and said lightly:

"By the way, you can't stay in this place, pack up and leave as soon as possible."

Before Lin Heng could speak, the Black Bear Spirit first asked puzzledly, "What do you mean?"

"Why can't we stay?"

The Cyan Snake explained, "He killed the Nine Pearl Monk of Jinshan Temple, and the entire Jinshan Temple is outraged. Several Elders from Leifeng Pagoda will soon emerge to seek revenge, probably within these couple of days."

As she spoke, she looked Lin Heng up and down, and said coldly:

"Although you were lucky to kill the Nine Pearl Monk, ultimately your Cultivation Realm is only just at the initiation of the Grandmaster level."

"If the Elders of Leifeng Pagoda join forces to come, you will have no way of surviving."
