Winding and turning, they soon delved deep into the mountain's belly.
This must be somewhere on the mountainside. To establish such a hidden place could be called a masterpiece of nature.
The ancient texts placed in such a secret location were bound to be rare treasures!
Wu Jiutian's intentions further deepened Ling Feng's respect for him.
"This is the Divine Technique Pavilion of our Witch God Hall! Originally, only the Hall Master and those designated for succession were allowed to enter and consult!"
A heavy door was opened with a gentle push from Wu Jiutian.
Hearing Wu Jiutian's words, Ling Feng knew he had to make some gesture.
"Thank you, Hall Master! In the future, the inherited Witchcraft of the Witch God Hall, this junior will certainly supervise its continuation!"
This time, Ling Feng cupped his hands and bowed to Wu Jiutian.
Wu Jiutian was so choked by Ling Feng's words that his face turned red. He truly couldn't understand how a young man of Ling Feng's age, whose martial arts prowess was heaven-defying, could also have become so monstrously powerful in Witchcraft within just four days!
More importantly, this fellow was like an old fox. Wu Jiutian had barely shifted his backside, and this guy seemed to have seen through him, knowing what he was about to excrete.
"Heh heh, good! Good!"
Wu Jiutian could only nod repeatedly, and casually gave Ling Feng a thumbs-up!
Having already brought Ling Feng to such a place, he had originally seen Ling Feng's talent and intended to forcefully bestow the yellow robe upon him, so that the succession of the Witch God Hall could be more prosperous in the future!
But with just a few words, Ling Feng had completely sidestepped the matter of inheriting the Hall Master position, only agreeing to be a supervisor of the succession!
In the Witch God Hall, this was merely the position of a guest elder.
"Thank you!"
Seeing that Wu Jiutian had let him off the hook, Ling Feng expressed his gratitude again.
The Witch God Hall, such a mysterious organization, managed to survive to this day, not being completely eliminated in the long river of thousands of years. To have such secret texts housed here, the secrets within must be tens of thousands of times richer than what Su Xingyan had given him.
For Ling Feng, this was definitely an opportunity to indulge himself.
Previously, the lack of medical texts had left Ling Feng feeling unsatisfied. And this time, having gained such a significant advantage, Ling Feng felt he had to reciprocate in some way.
It was just like when he received the inheritance from the Medicine King. The Medicine King had instructed Ling Feng to mentor Lin Shuainan in the study of the Medicine King's Medical Texts!
This time, Ling Feng employed the same method. He absolutely would not become the Hall Master of the Witch God Hall, but he could still pass on what he learned to the Witch God Hall, and the primary candidate for this would naturally be the Saintess Ji Yunyue.
As for how much comprehension Ji Yunyue would have, and how much she could learn, that was beyond Ling Feng's control.
Therefore, whether the Witch God Hall's succession could flourish, and how much stronger the Witch God Hall's power would become in the future, these were not things Ling Feng would deliberately foster.
Ling Feng would not excessively interfere with the development of supernatural organizations.
This was a principle.
"That's all there is. I'll give you three days. You can read as much as you can, but there are many ancient texts, and you may not be able to understand them!"
After all, having passed on the knowledge to an outsider, Wu Jiutian still felt a bit uneasy.
He was sorry to his ancestors!
Ling Feng swept his gaze across the surroundings. The walls were inlaid with jade, shimmering with a precious glow.
Not only did the walls contain some recorded texts, but the surrounding bookshelves, chests, and even some tortoise shells and animal skins also had records of Witchcraft.
These items were countless times more numerous than the medical texts Su Xingyan had given him back then.
At that time, Ling Feng had spent one day. With so many things today, and only three days, he could at most comprehend about five percent.
Ling Feng was not a greedy person; he was simply interested in these things.
Everything would be according to fate!
"Alright! Please take care of my friends outside, Hall Master!"
"Yes, you don't need to worry about these things. Just focus on your comprehension. The cultivation secret of the Life-Death Gu is on that piece of animal skin. You can take a look at it too!"
Wu Jiutian walked out with a wry smile, shaking his head.
Ling Feng could casually look at the cultivation methods of the Life-Death Gu.
Those young ones outside were truly pitiful, having to risk their lives on missions to obtain such things later.
"Begin!"
Muttering the word silently, Ling Feng first swept his gaze around, identifying some medical texts, and began to read them. As a witch doctor, he naturally felt a sense of superiority. Once he understood the witch doctor's knowledge, it would be much easier to comprehend other Witchcraft texts!
"Hall Master!"
Half an hour later, Wu Jiutian finally emerged.
Ji Yunyue and the others quickly rose and bowed.
Wu Jiutian looked at them and said solemnly, "You all understand what was discussed earlier. If you wish to obtain the cultivation method of the Life-Death Gu, you must go and resolve this matter."
Everyone was stunned and instinctively looked behind Wu Jiutian.
Where was Ling Feng?
Everyone was filled with doubt, but dared not ask aloud due to Wu Jiutian's authority.
However, Ling Feng's disappearance was likely related to this matter.
Everyone couldn't help but wonder where Ling Feng had gone.
At the same time, they also felt a trace of worry for Ling Feng's safety.
Of course, Shan Hanyi was an exception.
"Heh heh, Ling Feng, you idiot, how dare you offend the Hall Master, and even want to whisper secrets with the Hall Master, it's simply laughable! Now, you've probably been reduced to ashes!"
Shan Hanyi sneered in his heart.
Ling Feng not coming out could only mean that he had been personally dealt with by Wu Jiutian!
Thinking of this, Shan Hanyi was overjoyed and replied without any hesitation, "Hall Master, please rest assured, Shan Hanyi will do his utmost!"
As his voice fell, Shan Hanyi happily withdrew from the grand hall.
The mysterious girl exchanged a look with Guan Ya, wanting to speak but hesitating.
"What? You two don't wish to go?"
Wu Jiutian cast his gaze down at Guan Ya and the mysterious girl.
"No, that's not it, Hall Master. Just now, Senior Ling Feng was with you... why didn't he come out?"
Guan Ya couldn't suppress his worry and mustered the courage to ask.
Not to mention how much Ling Feng had guided him and how much he admired him, even facing Lin Shuainan outside, he wouldn't know how to explain if he left now.
Ji Yunyue also moved her lotus-like steps and respectfully asked, "Master, did Ling Feng offend you in any way?"
Her expression was calm, and her words were cold, as if she were asking casually.
But this was enough to make Wu Jiutian glance sideways.
Since childhood, he had taught Ji Yunyue what a strong person was and that she should not fall for men easily.
And Ji Yunyue had always done well, never disappointing him.
Especially in matters of men and women, Ji Yunyue had always strictly followed his teachings, always treating men with a cold and aloof demeanor.
This was the first time Ji Yunyue had shown such concern for a man.
Wu Jiutian's gaze towards Ji Yunyue deepened.
However, considering his disciple's personality, Wu Jiutian quickly dismissed his initial thoughts.
"I have entrusted Ling Feng with other matters to attend to. You need not worry."
A calm sentence left everyone speechless.
"Great Elder, go and invite Ling Feng's friends over."
Wu Jiutian then commanded.
The Great Elder naturally did not dare to have any doubts, accepted the order, and turned to leave.
Ji Yunyue stood to the side, her cold and beautiful face expressionless.
Seeing this, the mysterious girl could only sigh, "This junior takes her leave!"
Guan Ya felt even more nervous, but without understanding Ling Feng's situation, he ultimately suppressed the urge to flee and remained.
"What? Successor of the Witch Doctor Guan clan, do you have anything else?"
Wu Jiutian retorted.
