Zhu Tian: Starting from the Laughing Proud Yue Buqun

Chapter 137 Verifying the One-Finger Divine Skill, the Tragic Zhu Changling

Zhu Changling's body trembled violently, and he woke up from his dream.

Looking at the young man in black robes who had appeared out of nowhere, his long black hair danced wildly like sword energy cleaving through the void amidst the raging air currents.

"An immortal... an immortal!?"

Zhu Changling was utterly shocked and astonished beyond words, mistaking Xu Qing for a celestial being who had descended from the heavens.

He rubbed his eyes hard, afraid that he was seeing things because he hadn't seen people for so long.

But after wiping his eyes and straining to open them to look ahead, Xu Qing was still standing in the void, his expression indifferent, like a god who could not be looked at directly.

it is true!
He's truly an immortal!
"Zhu Changling pays respects to the immortal!"

Without hesitation, Zhu Changling knelt down and kowtowed to Xu Qing, his eyes filled with piety and excitement.

Meeting an immortal at such a time, doesn't that mean Zhu Changling has a predestined connection with the immortals?
After five years of suffering, the rain has finally come!
At this moment, Zhu Changling actually regarded the hardships he had endured over the past five years as a test from heaven.

Now, five years have passed, and he has made it through.

When an immortal descends to the mortal realm, it must be to offer him guidance!
Xu Qing, his expression indifferent, took a step forward and landed on the platform. Looking at Zhu Changling's demeanor, which resembled that of a devout believer, he coldly spoke:
“Recite the entire contents of the One Finger Divine Skill manual.”

Xu Qing did not explain that he was not an immortal.

Seeing that the other party mistakenly thought he was an immortal, he directly asked the other party to recite the One-Finger Divine Skill, so as to verify whether the content of the One-Finger Divine Skill recited by Zhu Jiuzhen was consistent.

Although Zhu Changling did not understand why the immortal wanted him to memorize the family's martial art, One-Finger Divine Skill, he still recited it all truthfully.

Xu Qing nodded slightly after listening.

The content of the One-Finger Divine Skill recited by Zhu Changling and Zhu Jiuzhen was exactly the same.

The woman didn't dare to use any tricks.

After Xu Qing finished verifying the information, he ignored Zhu Changling.

His gaze fell on a narrow passageway inside the platform.

The passage was extremely narrow, making it difficult for adults to pass through; only children could fit inside.

But this did not stop Xu Qing.

He had never practiced martial arts like bone-shrinking techniques.

However, Xu Qing's control over his body is far stronger than any martial art like bone-shrinking technique.

Controlling bones and changing body shape is extremely simple for him.

Xu Qing bypassed Zhu Changling and headed towards the narrow passage.

Zhu Changling was stunned. Shouldn't the immortal give him some pointers next?

Why are you ignoring me?
He quickly looked up and realized that Xu Qing had already walked towards the escape route used by Zhang Wuji.

Could it be that the immortal wasn't looking for me?

Instead, they're looking for that brat Zhang Wuji?!
Zhu Changling's expression changed slightly. He knew that Zhang Wuji had been alive and well ever since he went through that passage.

Moreover, he was often given wild fruits and meat from wild animals, otherwise he could not survive for five years by just eating the snow on the platform.

"Immortal, are you going to enter that passage?"

Zhu Changling stood up and asked cautiously.

Xu Qing extended his divine sense slightly, passing through the passage and into the interior.

I saw a world completely different from this place.

Compared to the coldness of the cliff, the world inside is like spring all year round, full of vitality, and the scenery is rare in the world.

That was simply a paradise on earth.

Because Xu Qing also sensed that the concentration of spiritual energy in this secret realm was more than ten times that of the outside world!
If one cultivates in such an environment, one will surely make rapid progress.

Thinking about how Zhang Wuji cultivated the Nine Yang Divine Skill here, in just five years, he possessed an internal strength that even top-tier martial arts masters couldn't match.

This clearly demonstrates the immense benefit this secret realm offers to those cultivating internal energy.

At the same time, he also saw a ragged young man in his twenties.

The young man had messy hair and a stubble beard. He was practicing internal energy cultivation with his eyes closed, radiating a fiery aura that was extremely masculine and powerful.

Xu Qing knew that the young man was Zhang Wuji after he grew up.

When Zhang Wuji and Zhu Changling fell off the cliff, Zhang Wuji was only fifteen years old. Now, five years later, the boy has grown up.

Seeing that Xu Qing ignored him, Zhu Changling mustered his courage and asked:
“Immortal, this passage is extremely narrow, making it impossible for anyone to pass through.”

If you want to get in, I'm afraid it's unlikely.

He didn't want this immortal to see Zhang Wuji, which is why he said that.

Xu Qing withdrew his divine sense, glanced at Zhu Changling, and his body suddenly began to change, his eight-foot-tall body instantly becoming as small as a child.

Then, with a single step, his body darted into the extremely narrow passage like a dragon, moving with incredible smoothness.

"An immortal!" Zhu Changling exclaimed, rushing to the passageway. He watched as Xu Qing's figure swiftly passed through the passageway, his expression changing drastically.

Has the destiny of immortality simply vanished?!

"No, Immortal, you should be seeing me!" Zhu Changling shouted, his expression panicked.

We've finally waited for the immortal to descend to earth, how can we bear to let him leave like this?

He hardened his heart and quickly climbed in as well.

Even though his physique is no longer as plump as before due to long-term malnutrition.

But it was still difficult to get through this narrow passage.

Halfway up the mountain, Zhu Changling could no longer make any progress.

Because it's even narrower inside, it's practically impossible for a person to get through.

He tried to push forward, but it was no use.

"Alas! My destiny with immortality!" Zhu Changling sighed helplessly.

Then, thinking of retreating, I couldn't move my body at all.

Got it!

He's stuck!
Now, Zhu Changling was in a dilemma, unable to move his entire body, completely trapped in this narrow passage.

"Help! Immortal!"

"help me!"

"I'm begging for help, sir!"

Zhu Changling frantically shouted ahead, hoping that Xu Qing would turn around and rescue him.

At this moment, Xu Qing easily entered the secret realm.

They heard Zhu Changling's cries for help coming from inside the passage.

A quick scan with his divine sense surprised him; this guy was still stuck.

According to the original timeline, Zhu Changling saw Zhang Wuji come out and wanted to attack him.

However, he was nearly blasted off the cliff by the force of Zhang Wuji's powerful Nine Yang True Qi.

He was shocked by Zhang Wuji's incredible skill and asked him where he learned his martial arts.

Zhang Wuji was simple-minded, and after five years, he no longer took Zhu Changling's actions against him five years ago to heart.

He then told Zhu Changling about the existence of the Nine Yang Divine Skill in the secret realm.

Then, Zhu Changling devised a plan to push Zhang Wuji off a cliff, hoping to enter the secret realm and obtain the Nine Yang Divine Skill.

Tragically, he got stuck inside, unable to move, and with no one to rescue him, he ultimately died trapped in the cliff.

Even now, Zhu Changling still couldn't escape the trajectory of fate and remained stuck in that same place.

Xu Qing shook her head slightly; fate is unpredictable.

His inner energy surged, and with a palm strike, a gentle force struck Zhu Changling, who was stuck halfway through his attack.

They blasted it out of the passage and returned it to the cliff platform.

"Thank you so much, immortal, for saving my life!"

"Thank you, Immortal!"

Ignoring his aching body, Zhu Changling thanked the other side of the passage with a joyful expression.

"Don't come any closer."

Xu Qing coldly uttered those words and then strode away.

He wasn't acting out of kindness; he simply needed to leave the secret realm from this place eventually.

Being constantly blocked by Zhu Changling is not a good thing.

"Yes, yes, yes, this humble servant will obey the immortal's decree!"

Zhu Changling nodded repeatedly, saying he would give him a hundred more lives.

He didn't dare go back in.

That feeling of being stuck was absolutely terrifying.

It’s terrible!
If it weren't for the rescue by the immortals, he could foresee his fate; he would have died in this passage without any surprise.
