Chen Feng was deeply moved by Gu Qianqian's sincerity.
"It's not your fault."
"Why are you willing to let me leave? Aren’t you afraid I’ll reveal your secrets?"
Gu Qianqian replied,
"Not at all!"
"If you can spread the news about the true dragon vein, it might stop the serpent in Qinglong Tomb from transforming into a dragon."
A serpent transforming into a dragon!
Chen Feng was utterly stunned.
Earlier, Gu Qianqian had mentioned that the serpent symbolized evil.
Clearly, she didn’t want it to succeed.
And now, this dragon vein was the key to its transformation.
"Step back a bit. Let me see if I can break these chains."
Unwilling to give up, Chen Feng struck the chains several times with his palms.
Combining the Tathagata Palm and the Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms, sparks flew as the chains and rocky ground were struck.
Yet, there wasn’t even a hint of damage.
Gu Qianqian reminded him,
"These chains are forged from thousand-year cold iron. No one has ever broken them."
Chen Feng sighed in resignation.
There was nothing left but to accept reality.
Night had fallen.
But Gu Qianqian showed no signs of sleepiness.
Curious, Chen Feng asked,
"Aren’t you tired?"
Only then did Gu Qianqian seem to realize.
"Is it dark already?"
"I’m sorry. I can’t see, so I didn’t notice."
"It’s been so long since I’ve spoken to anyone that I forgot about these things."
She stood up and bowed apologetically to Chen Feng.
The next morning,
Gu Qianqian brought a bowl of porridge in a coarse ceramic bowl.
She was incredibly talkative, as if she had endless questions and stories to share.
She spent almost the entire day chatting tirelessly with Chen Feng.
From her, Chen Feng learned many secrets about the Kunlun Mountains—
even the hidden truths of the Kunlun Remnants.
"Qianqian, how did the qilin’s blood blind your eyes?"
Gu Qianqian explained,
"The qilin was bitten by the serpent in Qinglong Tomb."
"When I went to play with it, blood from its wound splashed into my eyes."
Play with a qilin?
Well then.
As expected of the Kunlun Remnants—their idea of fun was certainly different from outsiders.
Still, there were rumors about qilins in the outside world too.
They were said to be incredibly benevolent creatures.
Legends claimed that qilins walked with such care,
they avoided harming even insects or trampling flowers.
After chatting for a while, Chen Feng suddenly remembered something important.
"Qianqian, would you like to learn how to play the zither?"
Gu Qianqian’s eyebrows lifted in delight.
"Do people from the outside world play the zither too?"
"That’s wonderful!"
"Wait here. I’ll get the zither for you."
Well then.
It seemed his plan to take on a disciple was going smoothly.
Even as a prisoner,
taking on a disciple before Zhang Bowen killed him wasn’t a bad idea.
Soon, Gu Qianqian returned with an ancient seven-stringed zither.
"I often played for the qilin."
"But lately, because outsiders have entered,
the qilin has gone to guard Xuanwu Mountain. I haven’t seen it in a long time."
"What kind of music do people from the outside world play?"
Uh…
Well…
Chen Feng didn’t know any tunes.
He said to Gu Qianqian,
"You’ll have to become my disciple first. Then I can teach you the music from the outside world."
Become a disciple?
Gu Qianqian hesitated.
"But I don’t have a gift for the ceremony."
Chen Feng chuckled.
"No gift is needed. Just your willingness to be my disciple is enough."
Gu Qianqian nodded eagerly.
"I’m willing!"
Instantly, a notification echoed in Chen Feng’s mind.
[Disciple successfully accepted.]
[Acquired the martial art: "Seven Extremes Zither."]
[Note: Once the disciple masters the basics of Seven Extremes Zither, the master’s comprehension of the art will ascend to the realm of Heavenly Unity.]
"Playing the zither isn’t so hard after all."
Chen Feng smiled faintly.
The moment he acquired the Seven Extremes Zither technique,
he instinctively grasped the fundamental skills—
plucking, flicking, hooking, picking, sweeping, lifting, striking, and supporting.
Originally, he had wondered how to teach a blind person to play.
But since Gu Qianqian already knew how, things became much simpler.
All he needed to do was teach her the energy circulation method.
Though he now understood how to play, Chen Feng didn’t know any melodies.
So he told Gu Qianqian,
"What I’m teaching you is a martial art—a sonic-based technique."
A sonic technique?
Gu Qianqian immediately responded,
"I’ve learned one too—the Eight Divine Tones of the Heavenly Dragon."
Chen Feng was surprised.
This seemingly harmless girl actually knew martial arts.
Curious, he asked,
"How old are you? What’s your cultivation level?"
Gu Qianqian answered,
"I’m eighteen. I’ve just reached Advanced Warrior."
Chen Feng was stunned.
An Advanced Warrior at eighteen?
Such speed was nothing short of genius.
The Kunlun Remnants truly lived up to their mysterious reputation.
Chen Feng said,
"The sonic technique I’m teaching you is called Seven Extremes Zither."
"Come here. Play while I guide you through the energy circulation."
Gu Qianqian followed Chen Feng’s instructions, chanting the mantra as she played.
After several repetitions, she finally memorized the energy pathways.
Chen Feng added,
"Seven Extremes Zither requires a tranquil mind, free of distractions."
"The fewer distractions, the more powerful the technique."
"Now, try it."
"Channel your energy into the music as you play."
Gu Qianqian obeyed.
Gradually, a melodious tune filled the stone chamber.
She guided her internal energy through her hands, ears, heart, and dantian, just as Chen Feng had taught.
When the first energy-infused note resonated,
Gu Qianqian froze.
She sat completely still.
The sonic wave, carrying her energy,
reflected back everything it touched into her consciousness.
In that instant, she could "see" every corner of the stone chamber—
above, below, left, right, even behind her.
Even the back of her own head became clear in her mind.
Though everything was only an outline, devoid of color.
Ten years.
This was the first time she had "seen" anything since losing her sight at eight.
Chen Feng noticed her sudden stillness.
"Qianqian? What’s wrong?"
"Did something go wrong with the technique?"
Tears streamed down Gu Qianqian’s face as she whispered in awe,
"I can see again!"
Huh?
See?
Chen Feng was puzzled at first.
Then he realized—Seven Extremes Zither used sonic waves to perceive surroundings.
The technique must have given her feedback through the vibrations.
Overjoyed, Gu Qianqian wiped her tears and began playing the zither again.
This was the zither her grandmother had passed down to her.
She had learned to play since childhood.
Her grandmother’s Eight Divine Tones of the Heavenly Dragon was purely offensive—
its sonic waves were like arrows, shooting forth without return.
But Chen Feng’s Seven Extremes Zither focused on artistry.
The waves not only struck outward but also returned,
allowing her to sense everything they touched.
As she played, Gu Qianqian’s expression grew increasingly entranced.
Chen Feng smiled.
But then he noticed something odd.
He had never paid much attention to her hands before.
Now, looking closely,
he realized—Gu Qianqian had six fingers on each hand.
It truly lives up to being system-certified as 100%.
Indeed, a natural-born talent.
ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!

ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
