"Could it be that this witch is truly the descendant of Nuwa, the Continent Master?"
Yang Tian asked once more in confusion.
The shock in his heart was unparalleled.
If the witch really is the descendant of Nuwa, then this Ninefold Heaven was created by her own hands, making her the master of this continent.
But why did the witch disappear without a trace thirty years ago?
If correct, she should have possessed Young Lady Yaoyao's body, but why has the witch stayed with the Fox Race for thirty years?
This witch is so terrifying that perhaps few in Huaxia's Ancient Martial Realm could oppose her, yet why did she suddenly vanish thirty years ago?
Looking at the ice crystal coffin in front of him, Yang Tian grew even more puzzled.
The unparalleled beauty inside the coffin is the witch's true form. So, did the witch die thirty years ago?
Is that why she attached her soul to Young Lady Yaoyao?
What really happened thirty years ago that even the terrifying witch had to die?
This series of doubts deeply troubled Yang Tian.
"Yang Tian, how's your cultivation going inside?"
A deep voice sounded from outside.
Hearing this, Yang Tian glanced at the ice crystal coffin, then searched the stone chamber, suddenly discovering an Eight Trigrams Array on the wall.
This Eight Trigrams Array is the same as the one on the coffin.
Both are arrays used by the witch for self-protection.
Once the coffin is attacked, the array activates, which is why when the Continent Guardian attacked the coffin before, it vanished into thin air.
"How does this Eight Trigrams Array activate?"
Yang Tian guided his Divine Sense into the Eight Trigrams Array.
Instantly, a familiar aura surged up, and almost the next second, the entire stone chamber boiled. As Yang Tian pressed forcefully, the light in the room scattered, everything returning to calmness, but this action allowed Yang Tian to grasp the situation inside the stone chamber.
This Eight Trigrams Array not only serves as the coffin's self-protection array but also can be used to open the attic.
......
"Big Brother has been in there for over ten days, why hasn't he come out yet?"
Wang Yue was extremely anxious.
She feared on one hand that Yang Tian truly mastered the Divine Technique, on the other, she was afraid something might happen to him inside.
"Continent Guardian, Yang Tian has been inside for over ten days, will something happen?"
Wang Ying directly looked at the elder.
The elder was very calm: "Don't worry, if he can enter the attic, it means he is fated with the Continent Master. Even if he can't master the Divine Technique, he will come out safely!"
Boom!
While the elder spoke, a light shot up into the sky from the attic.
Everyone gazed toward the attic, seeing Yang Tian emerging from within.
"Big Brother..."
Wang Yue quickly approached, carefully examining Yang Tian, and seeing he was unhurt, she patted her chest in relief, then cautiously asked, "Big Brother, you've been inside for over ten days, did you master the Divine Technique?"
Not only Wang Yue, but even Wang Ying and Ling Ying also closely watched Yang Tian.
However, Yang Tian's expression was very serious. He shook his head and said, "I didn't succeed in cultivation!"
"Didn't succeed in cultivation?"
The three women were all shocked.
Wang Ying and Ling Ying felt disappointment, while Wang Yue cheered, smiling and saying, "That's right, didn't succeed, now there's no way to fight with Big Sister, la la la, I'm a happy little painter..."
This guy cheered, indifferent to the concerns of others, almost jumping up to say how happy she was.
Bang!
Wang Ying, feeling irritated, smacked Wang Yue on the head: "Shut up!"
"La la la, I'm a happy little painter..."
Wang Yue ignored Wang Ying, running to the side to continue her jubilant song.
The elder's expression was very cold: "Yang Tian, why couldn't you succeed in cultivation? You've been inside for over ten days, that's over a hundred years! Could it be that you couldn't even find where the Divine Technique is?"
"I did find the Divine Technique, but it lacks over thirty years of power, so cultivating it to thirty years ago was interrupted and unsuccessful!"
Yang Tian said calmly.
"Is that so?"
The elder's expression suddenly grew irritated, pacing back and forth.
"A lack of over thirty years?"
Wang Ying asked in confusion.
"Yes, the Divine Technique is missing over thirty years of power. In other words, the master of this continent disappeared over thirty years ago, is no longer here, and this Divine Technique was condensed by the descendant of Nuwa over two thousand years. She disappeared for over thirty years, leaving the Divine Technique with over thirty years' missing power. I cultivated to thirty years ago, only to find it all in vain!"
Yang Tian explained.
"Does this mean we can't cultivate the Divine Technique to confront the Witch?"
Ling Ying said.
This statement made the elder a bit agitated: "This Divine Technique belongs to the Continent Master, though it's missing over thirty years of power, there should be some clues in the attic to perfect the Divine Technique. When Nuwa's successor left the continent over thirty years ago, she must have left something behind!"
"I can't find it, but I'm curious why Nuwa's successor suddenly left here thirty years ago?"
Yang Tian suddenly looked at the elder.
The elder frowned but still said solemnly: "Because she died!"
"Died?"
Wang Ying and Ling Ying were a bit surprised.
Though Yang Tian seemed very calm, the elder is the Continent Guardian. Thirty years ago, he should have been Nuwa's successor's subordinate, so he must know what actually happened thirty years ago.
The elder said Nuwa's successor died, but how did she actually die?
And more importantly, if the Witch is Nuwa's successor, why would she obliterate this Continent Guardian?
The attitude of this Continent Guardian towards the Witch is notably hostile.
Between them, it is clear they have a hostile relationship.
If the Witch is Nuwa's successor, then she would be in a relationship of Clan Leader and retainer to the Continent Guardian.
Thinking this way, Yang Tian was even more puzzled.
"Continent Guardian, this attic is extremely sacred. I want you all to go inside and see if you can find the power missing for thirty years!"
Yang Tian suddenly spoke.
"Big brother, can you let us in?" Wang Yue heard this and quickly ran back excitedly: "But I tried before, it's impossible to enter."
"No worries, I'll open it now!"
Yang Tian formed a Dharma Seal with his hands and swiftly initiated an Eight Trigrams Array.
This Eight Trigrams Array enveloped the attic, and a Wooden Fish appeared at the center of the array, suddenly coalescing at the entrance of the attic.
Swish!
Upon seeing this Wooden Fish, the elder's eyes flashed with excitement and urgency, his figure flashed and he had already entered the attic.
Soon, the elder arrived in front of a wall, seeing the painting on the wall, his eyes flashed with excitement, just as he was about to examine it closely, he found a stone chamber on the left side of the wall, he extended his Divine Sense into the stone chamber, his face suddenly changed dramatically and he swiftly entered.
Inside the stone chamber, he saw an ice crystal coffin.
Lying inside the ice crystal coffin was a peerless beauty.
Upon seeing this peerless beauty, the elder's eyes flashed with a hint of murderous intent.
At this moment, a cold voice sounded from inside the coffin: "Bold fool, kneel before me immediately!"
This voice was precisely that of the Witch!
Upon hearing this voice, the Continent Guardian's eyes flashed with surprise: "Your soul has merged with your body?"
"Hmph!" That cold voice continued from within the coffin: "Fool, if it weren't for your treachery thirty years ago, I wouldn't have had to coalesce my soul in a little fox, I've returned now, gradually regaining my strength, I am the true master of this continent, you are nothing but a fool, thirty years ago you were a dog, thirty years later you are still a dog!"
Hearing this, the elder's face was filled with anger.
He coldly said: "Blame yourself for trusting me so much thirty years ago. You are the master of this continent, with so many Magical Treasures and Demon Beasts here, how could I not be tempted?"
"So you really were behind it!"
At this moment, Yang Tian's voice resonated coldly.
The elder was suddenly shocked, turning around he saw Yang Tian leading the three women from outside, walking in.
Suddenly, the elder probed into the ice crystal coffin, unable to feel any presence, that peerless beauty was nothing but a corpse.
Almost instantly, the elder realized, firmly staring at Yang Tian: "Did you create that voice?"
"Indeed, I created it to see if Nuwa's successor's death had anything to do with you!" Yang Tian paused, then coldly said: "Continent Guardian, you are truly cunning, thirty years ago, you killed Nuwa's successor, and now you plan to use me to kill her? No wonder when you saw the Witch you wanted to strike, no wonder she scorned you when she saw you, calling you a dog everywhere, turns out you truly are a dog!"
"Yang Tian, you're courting death!"
The elder's face was furious, he suddenly punched forward.
This punch came with great ferocity, deeply powerful, and if it were an ordinary person, they would have been killed.
But Yang Tian had just cultivated the Divine Technique.
This Divine Technique was crafted by Nuwa's successor over more than two thousand years, without any Martial Techniques, without any Martial Skills, only a simple move.
This move was to gather the Divine Technique in the palm and push forward with a palm strike.
Today, Yang Tian would name it the Nuwa Divine Palm!
Swiftly, Yang Tian activated Spiritual Breath, launching a divine palm, the Nuwa Divine Palm struck towards the elder with a bang.
This palm strike shattered the fist thrown by the elder.
"What is this?"
The Continent Guardian's face changed, he attempted to swiftly dodge, but it was too late.
As a result, he was heavily struck in the chest by Yang Tian's palm.
Even though the elder was the so-called Guardian of the continent, he was knocked flying from the strike.
He climbed up from the ground, coughed up a mouthful of blood, fiercely staring at Yang Tian, his face filled with horror as he said: "This must be the Divine Technique! You've cultivated the Divine Technique successfully!"
