Shushan: Extinction

Chapter 145 Li Yingqiong's Disciple
Immediately afterwards, the giant leopard began to disintegrate rapidly, and then turned into seven or eight balls of bronze light that flew towards Gong Tianwu and blessed him one by one.

It can be seen that Gong Tianwu is completely covered in a suit of armor. The beastly features on the armor are extremely obvious, with fangs, claws and the like everywhere. There is also a primitive and barbaric aura in the ferocity.

At the same time, Gong Tianwu has a movable mask on his face that can be opened and closed at will. If it is closed, the whole person looks like a leopard monster.

Everyone else thought that Gong Tianwu had successfully defeated the weapon spirit and made it willingly accept its master. But only Gong Tianwu knew in his heart that his slap had triggered the special effect of "Xing Tian Meng Zhi".

It's just that when this special effect was triggered, I deliberately suppressed the strange phenomenon.

It was precisely because Xing Tian's fierce will was triggered and the ferocious aura he exuded was sensed by the armor that it was willing to acknowledge its master.

Otherwise, Gong Tianwu estimated that even if he fought with it for another two or three hundred rounds, this guy would probably still fight to the death.

After putting on the armor, Gong Tianwu came out of the physical cultivation transformation state, and his whole body slowly returned to its normal size. The wild god armor on his body also shrank automatically along with his body shape, which was amazing.

At this time, Gong Tianwu also obtained the description of this armor:

Wild God Armor
Quality: Lower Earth Grade

Description: This item is a Great Xia wizard weapon passed down from three thousand years ago. It is a powerful armor made by a generation of black wizard Jiang using meteorite iron and wild sacred wood. It can change its owner's form at will. In addition to providing extremely strong defense, it can also have a very strong restraint on various spells.

Passive: Wild God Shock. When attacking while wearing this armor, it is possible to knock the enemy back ten meters away and put it into a state of shock and dizziness. At this time, the wearer's speed is increased by 300% and the duration is three seconds.

Passive: Wild God Ban. When the enemy causes damage to you, it is possible to trigger the Wild God Ban, making the next witchcraft/immortal magic it casts ineffective against the wearer.

Passive: Blessing of the God of Wilderness. The soul of the God of Wilderness likes killing and blood. When you hurt the enemy or you are hurt by the enemy, the soul of the God of Wilderness may appear to protect you and gain extra strength and speed bonuses.

Negative Passive: Majesty of the Wild God. The wearer must have enough strength and determination to successfully control this armor, otherwise it will be harmful even if he puts it on.

Active: ???, you have not learned sorcery, so you cannot activate its ultimate skill.

After reading the description of this thing, Gong Tianwu realized that he must have made a fortune.

This is an earth-level armor. Jing Yunzi probably doesn't know much about witchcraft. Moreover, this armor is very selective. Only a strong physical cultivator is qualified to wear it. It is also extremely difficult to tame the spirit of the weapon, so he just gave it to himself casually.

If this guy knew its grade, he would definitely not give it away so easily.

"How is it? Are you satisfied?" Jing Yunzi said with a smile.

Gong Tianwu nodded and said:
"good."

Jingyunzi said:

"Do you know? A few days ago, Xue Xiong, the Jin Suanpan from Yufei Sect, came to visit us, and he was accompanied by Mr. Mingchuan from Emei."

"This man is called Xue Mingchuan. He is the second most important person in Emei after the head of the sect. He holds real power! His master is the famous Li Yingqiong in the upper realm."

"And Mr. Mingchuan and Fairy Li were master and disciple in their previous life, and he even died in order to protect his master!"

"So it is said that Fairy Li paid a huge price in this life to find his reincarnation and continue the relationship between master and disciple."

At this point, Jing Yunzi also spoke sternly:

"Mr. Mingchuan's background is a very secret matter. I didn't mean to hear it. You better be careful with your mouth. If you spread rumors about this matter, once Emei finds out, it will not only bring disaster to you, but also to the entire sect."

Gong Tianwu knew who Jing Yunzi meant when he heard what he said.

I just want to tell Gong Tianwu that the person the other party invited this time is too powerful and the sect can’t protect you anymore.

Then he sighed and said:
"Yufei Sect must have spent a lot of money to invite this great god, right?"

Jingyunzi said:

"According to the information I received, the Yufei Sect was able to invite Mr. Mingchuan, but it was the price paid by the three families working together."

"One of them is very mysterious. We only know that the leader is surnamed Yuan. The other one is Wu Huimeng."

"Yuan?" When he heard this word, the answer suddenly flashed in Gong Tianwu's mind.

There is no doubt that it was the work of Yuan Hong, the leader of the Seven Demons of Meishan.

But this is completely normal. After all, the Yuan family is extremely powerful in the demon clan, and what I do is not perfect. As long as you are willing to spend a little bit of resources to find out, you can locate me.

If more resources are given, it is not impossible for the Hua family to take the lead in selling out.

But at this time, the guard next to him said in surprise:

"What does it have to do with the Wuhui Alliance?"

Jingyunzi said:

"The business this kid created in Hulu Valley caused them to lose at least half of their income. The Wuhui Alliance was actually quite covert in doing this, but it's a pity that Yufeimen sold them out in the blink of an eye."

Master Wei and Master Liu looked at each other, their faces looked very ugly and their fists were clenched. It was obvious that the Wuhui Alliance had suffered a lot.

Gong Tianwu pondered for a moment and said:

"Golden Abacus Xue Xiong should be the leader of Yufei Sect. He has invited such a heavyweight figure to come to ask for the Lishui Sword?"

Jing Yunzi shook his head and said:
"No, he didn't mention it at all. He just said that after his junior sister Zi Yuzi's last visit, she was under great pressure because of the loss of the Lishui Sword, and finally went into seclusion."

"In fact, this kind of impulsive behavior of shutting oneself up at the slightest disagreement will not end well. In the end, that's what happened. Zi Yuzi died when the door was opened, without even leaving a last word."

"Then Old Ghost Xue said that his junior sister had a last wish, hoping to see her disciples go to the Ningcui Secret Realm. Currently, three people from the Yufei Sect have agreed to go, but these three people have very low cultivation and lack of experience in the martial arts world, so they need you to protect them."

When Gong Tianwu heard about Zi Yuzi's death, he was quite surprised at first, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it was not surprising.

This woman has an extreme and eccentric personality, but she has a powerful backer like the head sect master - otherwise she wouldn't be able to borrow the Lishui Sword. It is estimated that she has never encountered any setbacks in her life.

When things get out of hand, she can easily go to extremes because of her low psychological tolerance.

Of course, the Yufei Sect’s intention of asking Gong Tianwu to go and “protect” them was certainly known to everyone.

After pondering for a while, Gong Tianwu said:

"I have heard of Ningcui Secret Realm, but I don't know much about its specific situation. Please, Master, explain it to me."

Master Wei then explained to him that the Ningcui Secret Realm was actually a very dangerous secret realm.

The secret realm produces a special product called the True Soul Stone, which is very popular and a very special tonic:

For example, if you want to tell fortunes, you need to spend three years of your life.
Some powerful skills also require lifespan as a trigger.
This kind of consumed lifespan can be compensated by using True Soul Stone.

Especially when some guys are forced into a desperate situation during a battle, they will definitely think that since they are going to die anyway, they might as well risk their lives to fight to the death.

In this way, the lifespan consumed under abnormal circumstances can be compensated by using the True Soul Stone.

Therefore, the True Soul Stone is often snatched away as soon as it appears on the market, and is almost always in a state of being priced but not sold.

This secret realm is open every three years. The most dangerous thing about it is that once you enter it, you must meet two major conditions to get out:

First, stay in there for ten full days.

Second, at least ten outsiders must die in the secret realm, and the more people who die inside, the more True Soul Stones will be produced.

At the same time, this secret realm has more than one entrance. Another one is controlled by the evil sect: Ashura Palace, so disciples of the evil sect will also enter.

However, only disciples in the Qi Refining Stage are allowed to enter, and those at a higher level have difficulty entering at all.

In the secret realm, in addition to dealing with other immortal sect disciples, one also has to deal with the unique blood soul beasts inside. This situation is not uncommon, and is called the prison principle, which roughly means that the defense methods of these secret realms are similar to the defense measures of prison cells.

The cell seems to be heavily guarded, and the prisoners inside cannot enter and leave at will, but ants and insects can come and go freely.

After obtaining this information, Gong Tianwu combined it with Jing Yunzi's words and realized that the situation was actually quite clear. How could the disciples of Yufei Sect need Gong Tianwu alone to protect them? It was obvious that they wanted to join forces to besiege and kill him!
Not only that, the Yuan family will surely send corresponding personnel. The only advantage is that Gong Tianwu took advantage of the situation at that time to involve Ze Shen Xiang Tao, so the Yuan family will definitely misjudge Gong Tianwu's strength.

After thinking it over in his mind, Gong Tianwu said straightforwardly:

"I see. Isn't it Ningcui Secret Realm? I'll go there."

Wei Liu and the other man looked at each other helplessly, knowing that since Gong Tianwu had said this, the matter was definitely set in stone and difficult to change.

However, as far as the current situation is concerned, since the enemies to be faced are all limited to below the Foundation Establishment Stage, there is still a glimmer of hope with the strength of this disciple.

Of course, there are some things that Jing Yunzi didn't say.

For example, Xue Xiong of Jin Suanpan has said more than once that he heard that the sect's most precious treasure, the Lishui Sword, was accidentally lost. If it "happened" to be found in the Great Snow Mountain, then if it could be returned, everything could be discussed.

However, Jing Yunzi avoided the question, because after hearing about this, he took the Lishui Sword from Elder Yang.

Given Jing Yunzi's role in the sect, Elder Yang would not dare to refuse to give it to him, which means that this thing is actually in his hands at this moment.

From Jing Yunzi's perspective, I have dedicated so many years to the Great Snow Mountain. What's wrong with being a little willful now?
It is no big deal if a mere disciple has to risk his life for this. This is a training from Laozi!
Besides, isn't this compensation given for the sake of his master's face?

So, this is the most authentic immortal gate. The injustice that exists in the human world also exists here, and it is even more terrifying.

If you don't like the emperor of the human world, you can find an opportunity to revolt and overthrow him, but the emperor among the immortals, the lower-level people have no ability to resist!
Of course, there is one thing that Gong Tianwu did not forget. The invisible sword that was personally refined and improved by Jing Yunzi must have been taken away without any hesitation.

So what if it is defiled? Of course I forgive it!

***
As the saying goes, good news never goes out, but bad news travels a thousand miles.

Soon, the news that Gong Tianwu was forced to go to Ningcui Secret Realm spread completely. Some people felt regretful, some were indignant, and of course, more were gloating.

Fortunately, at this time, He Shu stood up firmly and went straight to his master and said:
"Master Wei, is what happened to Senior Brother Xu true?"

The guard nodded and said:

"it is true."

He Shu said firmly:
"Then I am also willing to go to Ningcui Valley. I know that my strength is low, but even if I cannot defeat the opponent, I can still share some of the enemy's pressure for Senior Brother Xu."

"After much thought, this is the only way I can help Senior Brother Xu!"

The guard nodded and said:

"I'm glad you have this intention, but I can't make the decision on this matter. Why don't you ask Tianwu for his opinion?"

He Shu nodded and said:
"Okay, I'll follow your orders."

Then he found Gong Tianwudao:
"Brother Xu, I want to go to Ningcui Valley with you. I've already told my master, and he asked me to come find you."

Gong Tianwu was a little stunned and immediately looked at He Shu deeply.

You know, if he was just pretending, he should have come to me first, so that I would have room to maneuver if he regretted it later.

If he went to see Master Wei first, the price of regretting in the future would be very high, so high that He Shu might not be able to afford it. From then on, Master Wei and Master Liu would regard him as an opportunist and a despicable person who did not keep his word.

After determining that He Shu was indeed sincere, Gong Tianwu smiled and said:
"Brother He, I am very pleased that you can stand up at this time. But I don't want you to go to Ningcui Valley."

He Shu was surprised and said:
"what?"

Gong Tianwu said:

"Because I have more important things for you to do! And in my heart, only you can do this for me well!"

After hearing what Gong Tianwu said, He Shu's expression suddenly changed. An indescribable sense of solemnity came to his mind, and he immediately said seriously:
"Brother Gong, you say!"

Gong Tianwu said:

"What I'm most worried about is not the trip to Ningcui Valley, but the fire in the backyard!"

"I have helped everyone improve their lives, but only a few of us have benefited from this."

"It is said that poverty is not a problem, but inequality. When I was here, those people didn't dare to say anything, but if I'm not here, someone might pop up to say something."

He Shu nodded and said thoughtfully:
"Yes, very likely."

Gong Tianwu said seriously:

"So at this time, we are lacking someone who dares to fight back against these greedy people! I can only hope that you can play this role and be the villain."

"I hope that when people like this come out, you can rush out and bite them like a mad dog, so that the first bastard who jumps out will suffer a painful lesson."

"Only if the first guy who tries it out suffers a tragic end, can the ambitions of the others be curbed. Tell me, can you do it?"

He Shu took a deep breath and said:
"Okay, Brother, from now on, I will be that mad dog! I will do it for you!"

Gong Tianwu smiled and patted him on the shoulder:

"You are not doing this for me, Junior Brother. You are doing this for us."

***
A month later,

Under the protection of his two masters, Gong Tianwu came to a place called Qingping Valley, where the passage to the Ningcui Secret Realm was located.

Why is this place called Ningcui Secret Realm? It is because the scenery here is quite similar to Ningcui Cliff of Mount Emei, at least 80% similar.

Along the way, Gong Tianwu originally thought that Yuan Ming would take action, after all, the damage he caused to them was not small, but in the end, everything was calm.

If it were anyone else, they would wonder if this guy was afraid of the Great Snow Mountain Sect, but Gong Tianwu knew very well that the monkey demon was fearless, let alone just two Great Snow Mountain elders?
The fact that Yuan Ming doesn't come out only means that he has a more vicious plan.

After arriving at Qingping Valley, we found that a large number of houses and pavilions had already been built for people to live in temporarily.

Of course, the good locations are definitely occupied by powerful sects. You can see that it is very noisy here, just like a vegetable market.

There were two other people entering Qingping Valley with Gong Tianwu, one was at the eighth level of Qi Refining named Xu Gui, and the other was at the ninth level of Qi Refining named Zhu Sansi.

The two of them dared to take such a huge risk to enter Qingping Valley, and they also had great difficulties.

Xu Gui's mother was seriously ill, so he went to his master to ask for a talisman: Yama Fear!
This talisman cannot cure diseases, but it can scare away ghosts and the god of death who come to take souls away.

As the saying goes, if the King of Hell orders you to die at three o'clock in the morning, he will never let you live until five o'clock. If the ghost who comes to take the soul away disobeys the order and fails to take the soul away successfully, he will suffer a serious punishment.

So in this situation, if one could find someone who could communicate with the underworld and offer sacrifices of gold and silver, then it would be possible for the underworld to lure other wandering ghosts to fill the numbers.

This talisman is extremely rare because it is almost useless to cultivators, forcing Xu Gui to risk his life for it.

Zhu Sansi was directly guilty of the capital crime of killing his fellow disciples. His motive for the murder was jealousy, so he made a choice between going to the execution platform and going to Qingping Valley.

Of course, most of the disciples from other sects who entered the valley were the same. They all had gloomy faces and looked at everyone around them with vigilant eyes.

When Gong Tianwu looked around, he also saw familiar faces, namely Zhu Yan from Yufei Sect, and Zi Chengzi, who had discovered him as an immortal and guided him on the path of cultivation.

Zi Chengzi looked at Gong Tianwu with a complicated look. He did not expect that this disciple's explosive power would be so amazing. He started strong but ended low, enduring and lurking for twenty years, and then made a big splash.
