Transcending Heavens: Starting with the Ancient Tomb Sect

The people in the ancient tomb are actually all martial arts fanatics.

The difference is that each of them has their own unique understanding of strength.

Having spent so much time in the ancient tomb, Yue Que, who had witnessed Xiaolongnu's cultivation progress to the point of near-madness, was well aware of her dedication to martial arts.

Cultivation has become a habit for her in a sense.

This kind of vague pursuit of power is a very special state of training.

Compared to meaningful pursuits, this is a higher state in cultivation.

With the heart of a child.

Therefore, Xiaolongnu was confused after Yue Que explicitly mentioned the word "strong".

She knew about "shattering the void," as it was a term used in Taoist alchemy. Having studied three versions of the Cantongqi, Xiaolongnu was naturally familiar with it.

The moment this term was mentioned, Xiaolongnu's first thought was that Que'er wanted to ascend to immortality.

As for being so powerful it was explosive, that only made Xiaolongnu even more puzzled.

What does it mean to be incredibly powerful?

Can these characters be combined like this?

However, one thing is certain: Xiaolongnu must ensure she is stronger than Yue Que in order to maintain control over her disciple. Especially since Yue Que's resistance is growing stronger throughout this process, something she can sense.

Upon arriving at the Valley of Heartbreak, the story of Gongsun Zhi and Qiu Qianchi evoked a long-lost sense of fear in Xiaolongnu, giving her the illusion of looking in a mirror.

That's why she subconsciously hissed and bristled.

For unknown reasons, Yue Que was compelled to pursue the legendary "strength" in order to break free from the inescapable net of the ancient tomb, while Yue Que's actions forced Xiaolongnu to seize every opportunity to become stronger.

When the three disciples, senior sister and her master, burst in, the panic that seemed to be about to slip away and become uncontrollable added even more pressure to Xiaolongnu.

Especially my senior sister, Li Mochou.

The Little Dragon Girl is now practicing her skills much harder than she did in the Ancient Tomb, even though she often practices with her fellow cultivators.

If we add the issues between the three of them, including the Red Serpent Fairy and her disciples, even Yang Guo, who was wandering outside, began to accelerate his growth in order to prevent his senior brother and aunt from seeking him out again for no reason.

So, the Ancient Tomb Sect is currently in a state of invisible, high-pressure involution because of Yue Que; whoever falls behind completely will be eliminated.

"...Then it seems that those martial arts techniques are still too few."

Meeting Yue Que's gaze, Xiaolongnu frowned and pondered for a moment. She knew she didn't have the ability to create martial arts techniques like her senior sister and Yue Que, and even her ability to adapt and refine them was insufficient. So, after analyzing the situation in her mind, she realized that her strength lay in integration and application. Thus, she slammed her fist into her palm and immediately concluded: "We need other martial arts techniques."

"?"

Yue Que was taken aback when he saw Xiaolongnu suddenly make a 180-degree turn in attitude.

This attitude...

Seeing Xiaolongnu's serious gaze, Yue Que suddenly realized what her target was.

In that game between the two, Xiaolongnu had a goal: to become stronger. She didn't need to be incredibly strong or break through the void. She only had one goal—to be just a little bit stronger than her disciple, and that would be enough.

This discovery wasn't much of a gain for Yue Que; it only broke Xiaolongnu's "innocent heart" state in some ways, but added a "concentrated" state to her. Whether it was a weakness or a strength was hard to say.

"There's bound to be a good show tomorrow, and Long'er should enjoy it."

Seeing that Xiaolongnu seemed to be interested in practicing her skills again, Yue Que stopped her from doing so and replied meaningfully, "Everyone should get some rest tonight."

The drama in the Valley of Heartbreak has now been adapted for the enjoyment of the women of the Ancient Tomb.

Just like complaining, when someone risks their life to perform it for you, what you see with your own eyes is different from what you hear.

Little Dragon Girl: "..."

Watching Yue Que return to his room, Xiaolongnu turned her head and glanced around the Valley of Heartbreak. The environment was unfamiliar yet gave her a sense of familiarity. She suddenly felt as if she were still in the Ancient Tomb.

……

the next day.

noon.

After breakfast was finished, the situation in the Valley of Heartbreak, under Qiu Qianchi's arrangement, seemed to be about to reach its climax.

Gongsun Zhi, the master of the Valley of Heartbreak, seems determined to get his just desserts today.

Having suffered fourteen years of torment, if it weren't for the jujube tree in the cave, Qiu Qianchi would have perished there long ago. Even if she hadn't starved to death, she would have died in the mouths of the crocodiles that Gongsun Zhi had deliberately raised.

All of these combined to form Qiu Qianchi's murderous intent towards Gongsun Zhi, but even these hardships could not compare to the destructive power of Gongsun Zhi's earlier words, "Isn't this enough?"

Qiu Qianchi couldn't figure it out no matter how hard she tried!

That was the ultimate insult, a complete subversion of her past pride.

How could Qiu Qianchi, the former Iron Palm Lotus, possibly accept this?

So even though her daughter Gongsun Lü'e pleaded bitterly at night, crying until her eyes were red and she was almost blind, her voice was hoarse, and her forehead was swollen and bleeding, she could not stop Qiu Qianchi's heart that wanted to kill Gongsun Zhi.

As for the others who pleaded for mercy, some were seriously injured by Qiu Qianchi with jujube pit nails, and some were even beaten to death.

Therefore, Qiu Qianchi decided that today, in the very center of the Valley of Heartbreak, in full view of everyone, she would kill Gongsun Zhi.

Moreover, it's not an ordinary method; it involves torturing the other person with love flowers.

Before killing Gongsun Zhi, Qiu Qianchi first wanted to torture him with the Love Flower, making him deny his previous words again, just like when he was afraid of death because of Rou'er and told a lot of lies.

Qiu Qianchi decided to first eliminate Gongsun Zhi's ambitions.

As the former Iron Palm Lotus, she has this ability.

They have the ability to destroy Gongsun Zhi's heart in front of the Gongsun family, which also means destroying Gongsun Zhi's influence in the Valley of Heartbreak.

The plaza-like area was now adorned with clusters of flowers in its center, while around the flowers, bonfires were prepared, along with sacrificial animals, creating an atmosphere reminiscent of a ritual to honor ancestors.

hiss--

Yue Que, who was standing aside and watching the scene unfold, was so shocked by the preparations made in the Valley of Heartbreak that he instinctively leaned back.

ruthless!

How cruel!

At this moment, Yue Que could not help but marvel at how ruthless Qiu Qianchi could be when her hatred reached its peak.

"Tsk!"

"Killing someone is just a matter of beheading them; that's too extreme."

Even though she had said those words just last night, seeing this scene, the Crimson Serpent Fairy couldn't help but sigh again: "If the Iron Palm Lotus is already so ruthless, then wouldn't the female strategist known as the Demoness be even more vicious?"

Li Mochou suddenly felt that Guo Jing, the great hero, truly deserved to be called a great hero—not because of the Song Dynasty or anything like that, but because of Huang Rong, the enchanting woman from Jiangnan.

The Red Serpent Fairy wiped out an entire family, but spared Lu Wushuang's life because of a handkerchief. Although she had the intention of tormenting him by taking him as her disciple, she never committed any act of destroying his spirit during the killing.

So what if someone kills?

What is Qiu Qianchi trying to do?

She wasn't just thinking about banishing Gongsun Zhi from the Valley of Heartbreak; she wanted him to be driven out of the Gongsun family and then executed. Qiu Qianchi wanted Gongsun Zhi to be nothing more than a homeless, wandering ghost, even after death.

This is even more brutal than in the original story.

No one expected that the first person to feel a little numb would be the Red Serpent Fairy, who was known as a demon in the martial arts world.

Li Mochou felt that she was still too conservative.

Xiaolongnu, Hong Lingbo, and Lu Wushuang watched everything in silence.

Unlike her uncle and sister, Lu Wushuang, who came from a wealthy family, felt this scene more deeply. Looking at Qiu Qianchi, this woman, was as if she had seen a demon appear in the human world.

now.

The Valley of Heartbreak was surrounded by people from the valley, and everyone was in a strange silence, quietly watching everything before them.

Suddenly, the sound of wheels began to rang out.

Qiu Qianchi was slowly pushed out of a wooden wheelchair, sitting upright in the wheelchair.

Standing behind her, pushing the wheelchair, was her daughter, Gongsun Lü'e, whose face was pale, swollen, and who looked like she was crying uncontrollably.

The wheelchair stopped, and Qiu Qianchi, dressed in brocade robes, sat in a chair, looking down at Gongsun Zhi, who was still lying on the ground below. A slight smirk appeared on her lips as she chuckled, "Gongsun Zhi!"

"Qiu Qianchi!"

Below, Gongsun Zhi, lying on the ground, stared at the other party with bloodshot eyes, his eye sockets bulging, his hatred soaring to the sky.

At this moment, Gongsun Zhi seemed like someone who had just crawled out of a cave.

If the courage Yue Que lent him this morning began to dissipate, and Gongsun Zhi's inner emotions were volatile, turning to cowardice and a desire to survive, then when he saw the sacrificial offerings and bonfire prepared in the field, that moment of cowardice completely vanished.

Courage returns in double measure at this moment.

Death or expulsion, it doesn't matter.

Gongsun Zhi never expected that Qiu Qianchi would want to strip him of his surname.

Why should she let him become a wandering ghost?

Why?!
