To change form and spirit

The First Mountain God naturally saw Zhuowen's self-deprecating expression, but he didn't mind. "I'm here to congratulate you for successfully comprehending the Third Forbidden Area's Law of Explosive Steps."

"Moreover, I can feel that apart from the First Forbidden Area's Law of Desolation, the Second Forbidden Area's Law of Death, and the Third Forbidden Area's Law of Explosive Steps, there are five other Laws in your body. In other words, you have comprehended eight Laws in total."

Speaking up to here, the First Mountain God's expression changed. A person comprehending eight Laws was shocking even to him.

Zhuowen's eyes flickered. He didn't admit or deny it. Today, the First Mountain God suddenly came to find him. This was strange in itself, so he didn't want to say anything unnecessary.

"You don't have to be so cautious. I said that I have no ill intentions towards you. You should have heard about me from Eighteenth Elder. With my strength, you are like an ant in front of me."

The First Mountain God waved his sleeves. Two rays of light shot out from his sleeves and landed in Zhuowen's palms.

They were two simple tokens with the numbers' 65 'and' 4 'engraved on the surface of the tokens.

"Hmm?

This is … "Holding the tokens, Zhuowen looked at the First Mountain God with a puzzled expression.

"These two tokens are the tokens of the Ninth Mountain God and the Tenth Mountain God. With these tokens, you can summon the Ninth and Tenth Mountain Gods to fight for you. However, there is a limit. You can only use them three times." The First Mountain God said.

Zhuowen was stunned. He didn't expect the First Mountain God to give him the tokens of the Ninth and Tenth Mountain Gods. This was out of his expectations. At the same time, it made him even more puzzled.

Today, the First Mountain God came to find him. There were too many suspicious points. He didn't believe that the First Mountain God came to find him without a purpose.

"Why?" Zhuo Wen asked indifferently.

"This is your reward for comprehending the Law of Explosive Steps. Comprehending the Law of Forbidden Area is very beneficial for both you and I. In the future, if you can comprehend the Law of the Fourth Forbidden Area, I will give you a higher ranked Mountain God token."

"For someone like you who urgently needs strength, these tokens should be a timely rain." The First Mountain God smiled.

"I need a specific reason. Otherwise, I won't accept these two tokens so easily," Zhuowen said calmly.

The First Mountain God was too mysterious, so mysterious that he couldn't see through him. He couldn't easily believe in such an existence.

The First Mountain God wasn't angry. He looked down and said, "Do you know how the third heaven and earth was formed?

Or perhaps, in your opinion, the third heaven and earth was created by Daoist Cang Long, right? "

Zhuo Wen's eyes slowly narrowed as he replied, "Could it be that there are other secrets?

If the Three Heavens and Earth were not created by Daoist Cang Long, could it be that it was created by you? "

"In the beginning, the Third Heaven was indeed created by Taoist Cang Long. However, when it was first created, it was not called the Third Heaven. Instead, it was called the Second Heaven. At the top of the Second Heaven, there was a dark prison."

"The purpose of this prison was to imprison me. However, although I was once defeated by Daoist Cang Long, he could only do so much. He didn't have the ability to kill me."

"Later, Daoist Cang Long was seriously injured and disappeared in the catastrophe ten thousand years ago. Only the Azure Dragon Hall was left in hibernation. Although I tried to escape the restrictions of the Azure Dragon Hall, Daoist Cang Long had already left a backup plan. Even if he wasn't there, I was still trapped in the sword prison."

"After staying in the prison for so many years, it was natural for me to feel lonely. In order to get rid of the loneliness, I broke the barrier of the Second Heaven and chose many creatures with poor aptitudes but strong wills. I also taught them the Indestructible Divine Body of the Myriad Tao. Thus, there was the Upper Realm!"

"About entering the Upper Realm from the Second Heaven, it was also from that time that the Second Heaven began to spread."

At this point, the First Mountain God stopped and didn't say anything else. However, his gaze was fixed on Zhuowen.

"You were clearly able to freely enter and exit the Azure Dragon Hall without my control. What restrictions could the Azure Dragon Hall have on you?" Zhuowen sneered. He didn't believe the First Mountain God's words at all.

The First Mountain God glanced at Zhuowen indifferently and said, "That's because you're too weak. You can't refine the Third Heaven at all. If your strength was comparable to Daoist Cang Long back then, you could forcefully refine it. Thus, I don't need your permission to enter and exit the Azure Dragon Hall freely."

"However, that's all. Even if I can enter and exit the Third Heaven, I can't go more than a thousand meters away from the Azure Dragon Hall. Otherwise, I'll trigger the restriction that Daoist Cang Long placed on me."

"This is the backup plan that Daoist Cang Long left for me. If it wasn't for this backup plan, a mere Third Heaven wouldn't be able to trap me."

Zhuowen's eyes flickered. He didn't completely believe the First Mountain God's words. He knew that there must be some truth and some lies in it.

However, the First Mountain God should have been a formidable opponent of Daoist Cang Long back then. Otherwise, Daoist Cang Long wouldn't have been unable to kill him and could only trap him in the Azure Dragon Hall.

"Does this have anything to do with the forbidden area of the Nineteenth Mountain?" Zhuowen asked calmly.

"Haha!

Of course it has something to do with it. The Nineteenth Mountain is the core of the restriction that Daoist Cang Long placed on me. To tell you the truth, if you comprehend all the laws of the six forbidden areas of the Nineteenth Mountain and combine them together, you'll obtain a key. "

"This key is the key to breaking the restriction on me. I've sent many people into the forbidden areas in the past. However, most of them died in the First Forbidden Area. Only a few managed to enter the Second Forbidden Area. As for the Third Forbidden Area, you're the first in history."

Speaking of this, the First Mountain God's eyes burned with passion. He looked at Zhuowen and continued, "I see hope in you. That's why I've come to you."

"What good will it do for me if I help you escape?" Zhuo Wen sneered.

The First Mountain God remained calm and said, "Don't be in a hurry to reject my offer. My offer is a win-win situation. It's beneficial to both of us!"

"The laws of the forbidden zone and the things inside will be of great benefit to you. Moreover, after I escape, the remaining seventeen Mountain Gods will all be under your command. They will listen to your orders, and you will be able to easily refine the third world. Isn't this the best of both worlds?"

"I know you're a smart man. Also, you don't have to think about controlling me. Even Daoist Cang Long couldn't do it, let alone you."

Zhuowen's eyes flickered. Without a doubt, the First Mountain God's offer was indeed tempting to Zhuowen.

Just as the First Mountain God had said, with the First Mountain God's unfathomable strength, it was indeed difficult for him to control him. After all, even Daoist Cang Long couldn't subdue the First Mountain God.

However, he always felt that the First Mountain God was a little strange. It was his intuition.

"If you think I'm not reliable, I can swear on my life that as long as you cooperate with me and help me escape, I won't attack you. Furthermore, I'll do my best to help you during this period. This is already the biggest concession I can make," the First Mountain God said sincerely.

Zhuowen fell silent. The First Mountain God didn't rush him. He leaned against the cliff and silently waited for Zhuowen's reply.

After about an hour, Zhuowen took a deep breath and said, "If what you said is correct, I can cooperate with you. Of course, if one of us goes against the original intention of cooperation, we'll both die. Let's make a contract. It'll be safer that way."

As he spoke, Zhuowen bit his thumb and quickly drew a blood-red pattern in the air.

The First Mountain God smiled faintly. With a light stroke of his finger, he imprinted his blood essence into the blood-red pattern.

The blood-red pattern split into two and flew to their chests. If one looked closely, they both had the same blood-red pattern on their chests.

"Now you know my sincerity, right?"

The First Mountain God smiled and extended his hand, "I hope we'll have a pleasant cooperation from now on!"

Zhuowen also extended his hand and shook the First Mountain God's hand with an expressionless face.

"In order to celebrate our cooperation, I'll give you another gift!"

The First Mountain God waved his sleeve and a jade slip fell into Zhuowen's palm.

"I see that you've cultivated both your physique and Dantian Saint Energy. Although your talent and luck are not bad, cultivating both at the same time will only delay your cultivation."

"In this jade slip, there's a secret skill called Shapeshifting Technique. When cultivating this technique, you can split yourself into two. One of them will cultivate your physique while the other will cultivate your Dantian and Sea of Consciousness. Both of them will not affect each other, but they can be combined together," the First Mountain God said faintly.

Zhuowen was stunned. He placed the jade slip between his eyebrows. About half an hour later, his eyes were filled with surprise.

He carefully read through the secret technique called Body Shifting Technique, and his heart was filled with astonishment.

Shapeshifting Technique could be considered as an External Incarnation Skill. However, it was very different from an ordinary External Incarnation Skill.

A warrior who cultivated such a mystic technique could split the different cultivation energies in the warrior's body. For example, Zhuo Wen cultivated both the physical body and the Law of Saint Power. However, if he cultivated this mystic technique, he could split into two clones based on this characteristic of his.

One of the clones would focus on his physique while the other would focus on the Law of Saint Energy. Moreover, the cultivation of the two clones would not affect each other. When the two clones were combined, there would be no sense of disharmony. The combination of the two clones would be like his own body.

Just as the First Mountain God said, Zhuowen cultivated both his physique and the Law of Saint Energy. However, he only had one body. To cultivate both, he had to stagger the time. This would undoubtedly delay Zhuowen's time and cultivation progress.

However, the Shapeshifting Technique easily solved this problem for Zhuowen. After cultivating this secret skill, Zhuowen could divide himself into two clones and cultivate at the same time.
