Chapter 56: Heaven has a path but no one walks it, Hell has no door but people knock on it (Seeking
For more than half a year, the hundreds of female disciples in Lingjiu Palace have become somewhat accustomed to the young monk who appeared inexplicably, and also somewhat accustomed to the brand-new image of their own Venerable.
On this day.
Zhuang Buran stood on the top of Piaomiao Peak, overlooking Tianshan.
I saw continuous mountains, snow-covered, clouds and mist lingering, the snow mountains in the distance shining in the sun, and the clouds and mist rolling like sea waves, which made people feel relaxed and happy.
"After this period of practice, the 'Zhouliu Six Voids Technique' has been completely perfected. It's a pity that the power of this skill is not as great as imagined, but in this world, it can be called far beyond peers."
"Next, in the realm of practicing spirit, I have to rely on water-grinding work. Fortunately, after practicing the Six Voids Technique, the eight true qi in the body can be continuously strengthened autonomously, which is much easier."
Just when a touch of joy appeared in the corner of the young monk's eyes, a figure leaped over.
I saw that this was a girl in a light red dress, with eyes like lacquer, beautiful and refined.
"Mr. Xu Zhu, my Venerable specially invites you to return to the palace for a talk."
Upon hearing this, Zhuang Buran immediately thought that after Tianshan Tonglao repaired her internal skills and cured the old illness of deviation, seeing that the time was coming, Li Qiushui would definitely come to seek revenge, so she showed weakness to the enemy, wanting to use this to carry out a sneak attack.
The process was very successful. A Six Yang Palm hit Li Qiushui, causing her to vomit blood, suffer heavy injuries, and flee repeatedly.
Tianshan Tonglao knew that the opportunity should not be lost, and pursued and killed her.
The young monk looked at the rolling clouds and mist not far away, and said casually:
"Meijian, your Venerable has been out for a month or two. This time, she should have achieved her wish."
"Mr. Xu Zhu, the Venerable's situation... is not very good. She vomited a large mouthful of blood as soon as she came back, and she looked much older, not like the appearance of twenty or thirty years old before going down the mountain."
The girl in the light red dress looked anxious:
"Please, Mr. Xu Zhu, hurry up and follow the maid to the palace to see the Venerable."
Zhuang Buran raised his eyebrows, feeling quite surprised in his heart, and also raised a trace of curiosity. Under the situation that was completely opposite to the original plot, and without himself as a third party, what kind of butterfly effect was triggered.
The vines around his waist grew wildly, wrapped around Meijian's slender waist, and took her from the top of the peak and leaped down.
Not long after, in the clouds and mist, a man and a woman fell one after another, which made the many female disciples guarding Lingjiu Palace feel suspicious.
I saw Meijian land in a dizzy state, almost unable to stand firm and about to fall to the ground. Fortunately, the vine was still wrapped around her waist, so she stood firm. After the vine broke, a voice that always remained flat came to her ear:
"Why don't you hurry up and take this monk to see your Venerable."
"Uh... the maid will lead the way." Meijian was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly led the way.
After a good while, under Meijian's guidance, Zhuang Buran came to a bedroom and saw Tianshan Tonglao leaning weakly on the bed, accompanied by three maids with the same appearance as Meijian, and an old woman of forty or fifty years old standing respectfully on the side.
"Granny, you clearly occupied the advantage, how could you end up in a situation where both sides suffered, and your skills were only left with two or three percent."
Tianshan Tonglao, whose old illness had been removed, had a tall figure, a very beautiful face, eyebrows into temples, and the corners of her eyes faintly contained extremely rich majesty.
And at this time, because of the great loss of skills, her hair was gray and her wrinkles were obvious, making her appearance, which was at most thirty, look like fifty or sixty years old.
"Cough cough, what both sides suffered, I have completely removed that bitch. If it weren't for a silly kid who appeared halfway, how could I suffer this disaster."
The young monk walked to the side of the bed, shook his head slightly and said:
"Skills lost, the original qi in the body is also consumed a lot. Granny was already nearly a hundred years old. After this disaster, it will be a month or so, and short as ten days, I'm afraid she will drive a crane to the west."
As soon as this was said, the faces of the others changed greatly. Meijian remembered the style of a young monk stepping on the clouds just now, and could not help but kneel on the ground:
"Mr. Xu Zhu, you look like an omnipotent immortal figure, please save the Venerable."
The other three women and the old woman heard this, thinking of the attitude of their own Venerable toward this young monk before, and could not help but kneel on the ground, requesting very sincerely.
"No rescue, wait for death." Zhuang Buran shook his head again.
Tianshan Tonglao knew her injury well and waved her hand:
"Okay, you guys go out first."
"Yes." Several people stood up and walked out.
"This time pursuing that bitch, I didn't expect to meet the descendant of Wuyazi junior brother. Only then did I know many things, and that bitch took advantage of my distracted mind to attack, and also injured me."
Zhuang Buran heard this, and his tone was playful:
"If this monk remembers correctly, among Wuyazi's disciples, only one has decent martial arts, and that is Ding Chunqiu."
"Don't mention this rebellious disciple. It was he and Li Qiushui who harmed Wuyazi junior brother to be paralyzed and disabled for many years."
Tianshan Tonglao said angrily:
"For revenge, my junior brother specially accepted another apprentice, named Duan Yu, from Dali. For this reason, he passed on his lifelong skills and the position of the head of the Xiaoyao Sect to him."
"Duan Yu, this kid, has an incomparably pure and thick North Dark True Qi, so that every acupoint on his whole body can absorb external internal energy and turn it into North Dark True Qi."
"Because of this, when I was fighting with that bitch, I mistakenly poured most of my skills into his body."
She said this, and a smile that was bitter and happy appeared on the corner of her mouth:
"Because of the martial arts passed on by junior brother, even though I was careless before, I stopped in time after a dangerous situation, which kept two or three percent of my skills."
"And that bitch was sucked into a withered state and died."
Zhuang Buran listened, and his heart was dumbfounded. It was really the cycle of heaven. He destroyed Duan Yu's encounter, and his original plot encounter was obtained by Duan Yu.
"Hehe, why didn't Granny bring Duan Yu back to Lingjiu Palace?"
Zhuang Buran had a consistent lazy smile on his face:
"This monk and Duan Yu can be said to have a great connection. He should be very eager to see me."
Tianshan Tonglao said coldly:
"After the slaves of the Nine Heavens and Nine Divisions in the palace found me, I passed some Xiaoyao Sect martial arts to him, and then sent him away."
"That kid looks dull, but he has a lot of tricks behind his back, this kind of shameless person who is fickle."
"If it weren't for the fact that he was the only apprentice of junior brother who could take revenge, let alone learning any martial arts from me, I would have planted a 'Life and Death Talisman' on him and made him well."
Just as the two were talking, the old woman led the four maids of Meijian and walked quickly. She bowed and saluted:
"Venerable, the slaves of the Thirty-Six Caves and Seventy-Two Islands, who were old subordinates of this palace, don't know how they knew that the Venerable was in trouble, and they actually dared to rebel."
"According to the scouts of the Juntian Division, now a group of slaves are attacking this peak under the leadership of a man named Murong Fu, while the Juntian Division, Zhutian Division, Chengtian Division, Youtian Division, Xuantian Division, and Luantian Division are strictly guarding the road up the peak."
"That bitch injured me and then publicized to the outside world that I had lost all my skills." Tianshan Tonglao seemed to have known about it, saying:
"Calculating the time, these slaves are about to arrive at Piaomiao Peak."
She looked at the young monk:
"Little junior brother, I know you are a leisurely person. My grievances with Li Qiushui before were not willing to involve you."
"Now I have little skill left, and I won't live for many days. From now on, you are the master of Piaomiao Peak Lingjiu Palace. The life and death of the slaves of the Nine Heavens and Nine Divisions in the palace are all decided by your words."
Zhuang Buran seemed not to hear, turned his eyes to the old woman:
"You said that the person who is leading people to attack Piaomiao Peak is called Murong Fu?"
"Exactly."
"Heaven has a path but no one walks it, Hell has no door but people knock on it." The young monk nodded:
"Good, let alone whether to be the master of Lingjiu Palace, this monk is very interested in this person's life."
After speaking, he let the old woman lead the way, while the bedroom left two women to serve Tianshan Tonglao.
