That’s going too far!

How dare a mere water ghost stretch out his filthy hand and grab my thigh?

And the strength of this hand was not weak.

Song Shuhang kicked hard at the hand clinging to his leg, and a water column shot up from the black lake.

With Song Shuhang’s current strength, a single punch of his could cause a waterfall to flow backward, so it was only normal that his kick caused such a commotion.

At the same time, his divine sense swept the depths of the lake to see what was lurking down there.

Just in case, he also made a hand seal and cast the Lightning Drawing Technique.

A total of three lightning bolts were drawn toward Song Shuhang’s body. Come, let us taste this sweet lightning together!

With his strength at the Seventh Stage Venerable Realm, even something ordinary like the ❮Lightning Drawing Technique❯ could unleash terrifying power. And as his cultivation realm improved, he felt that his mastery over the ❮Lightning Drawing Technique❯ was improving as well. It would not be long before he could draw four lightning bolts, and then five and use the Five Lightning Explosion.

Regardless, the purpose of these three bolts of lightning was to notify Senior White and Sister White Dragon that he was being attacked. If that hand at the bottom of the lake was too strong, then Senior White and Sister White Dragon would be able to come to his aid immediately.

Pavilion Master Chu’s strand of hair, which was wrapped around his neck, had also noticed something strange. It unraveled itself from Song Shuhang’s neck, locked onto the large hand at the bottom of the lake, and stabbed at it like a sword.

Then came the virtuous lamia. Affected by the black lake, she had failed to protect her master when he got attacked earlier.

The virtuous lamia felt like she was being provoked. She wrapped around Song Shuhang and clasped her palms together to cast a powerful virtuous technique—the ❮Virtuous Giant Sun❯.

Water columns shot up, lightning descended, an Immortal’s sword intent exploded, and a dazzling display of virtue lit up the black lake.

The scene was breathtaking.

The hairy hand in the black lake never thought that Song Shuhang could unleash such a terrifying attack in an instant.

Gurgling bubbles rose to the surface.

The hairy hand unwillingly let go of Song Shuhang, retreating to the bottom of the lake after being attacked by the ❮Virtuous Giant Sun❯ and Pavilion Master Chu’s strand of hair.

Song Shuhang took this opportunity to jump up and have black lotuses appear beneath his feet to support his body.

“What was that just now?” Song Shuhang frowned and looked at the black lake.

As the core of the resurrection formation set up by the Scholarly Sage, the black lake severely limited the range of a cultivator’s divine sense.

Song Shuhang’s divine sense barely managed to get an image of the hairy hand, which seemed to be the claw of a beast.

Pavilion Master Chu’s strand of hair said, “It’s an ugly water beast, and this water beast can survive in the resurrection space arranged by the Scholarly Sage.”

“It now seems to be heading toward the fake Fairy Yuanyuan,” said Skylark. Her fingers were still in the black lake… It was unknown what she wanted to do.

At this time, the fake Fairy Yuanyuan was standing on the tip of a branch, right above the surface of the black lake.

When she heard Skylark’s voice, she jumped up and stepped into the air to avoid the water beast.

“Splash~”

After the water beast got close to where the fake Fairy Yuanyuan was, it stretched out its hand and pulled the branch toward the bottom of the lake.

Song Shuhang looked at the fake Fairy Yuanyuan and asked, “Is this your doing?”

Hearing his question, the other party shook her head.

“Could this be the doing of the survivors of the Ancient Heavenly City?” Song Shuhang looked at his leg. There were still a few tufts of fur attached to it, which had been cut off by Pavilion Master Chu when she attacked the beast.

Song Shuhang stretched out his right hand. The ends of the Defiant Whale Warrior’s Glove receded, revealing his fingers. He bent down and pinched the fur while activating the ❮Secret Appraisal Technique❯.

After the secret appraisal technique was activated, a shallow wound appeared on his wrist, and a few drops of blood spilled out of the wound and fell into the black lake.

Song Shuhang said with a tone of heartache, “I forgot to switch to my smoke mode and wasted these drops of blood.”

He was now a genuine Seventh Stage Venerable, and he had also tempered his body to a great degree. Moreover, he had practiced the General Principles Chapter of the ❮Holy Ape Dragon Power Technique❯, so every drop of his blood was a treasure and had the same medicinal value as that of a spiritual beast.

If one were to take out a tube of his blood and add some medicinal materials to it, they could refine a great pill.

The secret appraisal technique quickly transmitted back the information about the water beast.

Meanwhile, the wound on his arm had already healed.

[Mutated Water Beast: It was originally an ornamental pet adopted by the Scholarly Sage. A herd of water beasts had once been kept in the black lake of the resurrection formation, adding a little beauty to the gloomy lake. After the fall of the Sage, the herd of water beasts met with many accidents and mutated many times. Now, there is only one mutant water beast left.]

An ornamental pet? The Scholarly Sage must’ve felt that the black lake was too dull and desolate, so he added a group of ornamental pets such as goldfish to it. Unexpectedly, they mutated after generations of reproduction and turned into this thing…

Raising goldfish in the resurrection place of his disciples, something like this could only be done by the Sage.

Song Shuhang stretched out his hand to throw away the several tufts of fur he had just grabbed. Then, he prepared to relay the information to Senior White and the others.

But before he could say anything, the shallow wound on his arm opened again, and several drops of blood spilled out.

Song Shuhang: “???”

Since when was the price of the secret appraisal technique paid in installments?

[Modified Mutated Water Beast: The survivors of the Ancient Heavenly City captured the lone mutated water beast, buried an Imperial Pearl in its body, and hid a magical treasure containing the Heavenly Emperor’s information beneath its scales. When the time is right, the Heavenly Emperor would be able to return with the help of the resurrection formation.]

Song Shuhang sighed and said, “The survivors of the Ancient Heavenly City put a lot of effort into it.”

But the problem is… the Heavenly Emperor isn’t even dead. She is alive and kicking and has no need for a resurrection formation.

However, it is really enviable to have such a group of loyal subordinates and allies.

So many years after the fall of the Ancient Heavenly City, these old subordinates of the Heavenly Emperor have still not given up. I really wonder what kind of bewitching soup the Heavenly Emperor gave them back then.

“Senior White, this mutated water beast was raised by the Scholarly Sage— Ahhh!” While Song Shuhang was in the middle of speaking, the wound on his arm opened again. This time, the cut was much deeper.

He felt a sharp pain like when one stubbed a toe on the leg of a table. Obviously, the injury was not that serious, but it hurt a lot.

Another drop of blood flowed from his arm and dripped into the black lake.

“It’s still not over?!” Song Shuhang was pissed.

How many installments do I have to pay?

Don’t tell me it’s the one where I have to pay twelve installments in a year! It’s better to just have it done all at once so I don’t have to worry about it anymore!

[Modified Mutated Water Beast that has swallowed the source information of the Venerable Emperor: Out of greed, the mutated water beast swallowed the branches under the fake Fairy Yuanyuan’s feet. The water beast’s body now contains the information that would allow for the Venerable Emperor’s resurrection. The beast now possesses two powerful source data that are clashing within its body.]

Song Shuhang: “…”

He knew that his ❮Secret Appraisal Technique❯ must have evolved as its result was now updated automatically.

“Is it finally done updating?” Song Shuhang looked at his arm.

After the water beast ate the branches, there should be nothing else for it to devour. The current data that it has should already be all that it can get…

While he was in thought, the wound opened up again.
Song Shuhang: “…”
