The horizon had swallowed the sun quite some time ago. Currently, Sha Ku sat within his room. He was planning his path ahead.
He had successfully cultivated the first layer of the Undying Slayer Technique – Undying Wood.
This first layer was the deep plunge, requiring Sha Ku to cripple and destroy his nine meridians, sacrificing them in honour to the heavens. Showing his devotion, it would grant him a single Un-dying Meridian that would transform his body – The Undying Wood Meridian.
This was a sycophantic technique in the eyes of some, begging the heavens for something, but actually, it was a way of seizing what Karmatic Luck one had and offering it up and getting something in return.
There were fifteen levels in total for the Undying Slayer Technique, all of which are progressively harder than the prior level. Fortunately for Sha Ku, he wouldn't have to destroy his meridians once again. Instead, he should be able to temper his body in a straightforward manner… if you included indescribable pain and agony mixed with untold resources under your definition of straightforward…
Now though, Sha Ku didn't have to worry. As long as he didn't fight with anyone above Qi River, he should be undefeatable, especially someone in the lower realms. It's not like he's not going to run into someone practising a Dao Tier technique around the corner. This is a wasteland of cultivation after all.
Sha Ku suddenly frowned, thinking about the technique An Mo gave him, made by that… Kewang Yun.
"Perhaps things might be interesting." A smile emerged on Sha Ku's face.

Sha Ku emerged from his room as the sun went into twilight, and the fresh mountain air swept down upon him. The courtyard covered in snow, the skies above filled with white and snowflakes drifted through the air.
A light smile appeared on his lips, appreciating the short breath of serenity.
"You're Sha Ku right, the one who chopped off Song Ping's leg?" A broken voice spoke out from behind him.
It was the short fat young man – Bing Yuanshan.
Looking backwards Sha Ku raised an eyebrow, clasping his hands behind his back, he nodded.
Seeing his disposition, Bing Yuanshan gulped a little, fiddling with his collar, "It's just I wanted to thank you… I couldn't have done it myself." Bing Yuanshan's voice faltered from shame.
"There's no shame in being weak. Only in staying so." Sha Ku told him.
Bing Yuanshan was stunned by his answer; he'd never been called weak before today. After the downfall of his clan, he had always been the most talented child left. He may be a glutton and enjoy food, but whoever teased him or jibbed at him would be swiftly crushed under his boot.
This place, though, the Spirit Sword Sect, he was the ant underneath the tyrannical boot. Swift would be his demise if he couldn't change.
"I wanted to ask; can you help me become powerful?" Bing Yuanshan managed to stutter out-wards.
Sha Ku who was facing away had a deep and sudden smile appear on his face, "I can make it so your staff can freeze over the great sea of the central plains so that you can walk through this world without boundaries nor obstacles. What can you offer in return?"
Bing Yuanshan immodestly fell to his hands and knees, his forehead pressed to the ground, "My undying loyalty."
"Your undying loyalty? I have no use for such a thing. You do realise you'll eventually become a burden to me, so why don't you offer me something of value… and don't say your life." Sha Ku turned around, his face like stone.
"Something better?" Bing Yuanshan started to sweat… until a bright light sparked within his eyes.
"Ice Phoenix Fungus!"
"What did you just say?" Sha Ku's stone face cracked apart; his eyes shot wide open.
"Ice Phoenix Fungus, my family knows the location its rumoured to grow!" Bing Yuanshan said with some pride.
Sha Ku couldn't help but be stunned, unable to believe his luck. Ice Phoenix Fungus was a unique and rear item, even in the higher realms! It was an Ultra Yin substance and could fully develop the Yin side of his bloodline…
If he managed to obtain it, he wouldn't need to worry about the Yin half of his bloodline ever again!
"This is a fair deal; the Fungus is greater in value to me than that of your clan. Come bring me a map with its location in the morning, and I'll give you something of such value that you'll not fear another man or woman in this world again." Sha Ku's words were true and fair; if he could obtain the fungus, he'd repay Bing Yuanshan beyond his wildest dreams.
Turning on his heel Sha Ku rubbed his hands together behind his back, a delighted look crowned his face and re-entered his room, closing the door behind him gently.
When he the room he immediately took out two scrolls of paper starting to write down two different techniques.
The first was called, "The Frost Archon's Wrath." A technique he'd adapted from the Ice Born of the God Race!
The second was, "Heaven's Divine Ice," A unique technique that he'd acquired some time ago. It allowed one to gather divine ice and transform one's ice techniques into those that use it.
What was so special about divine ice, well it had the toughness of steel, it couldn't melt, and it burned to the touch. If Bing Yuanshan was to become a follower of his, he couldn't have him looking weak. It would reflect poorly upon himself.
