Walking by the Abyss on Thin Ice

Chapter 145: The devil is hard to appease

Views:

Su Yun compared the differences between the two places' skills and thought, "My friend from the Louban stall once told me about the difference between Dongfang Yuanshuo and the foreign countries. He said that foreign countries ask the gods for advice, while Yuanshuo asks people for advice. This is also reflected in the skills."

Although Tianting Shenzhao is mainly based on visualization, it mainly visualizes the gods in heaven, which is somewhat similar to deity worship.

Yuanshuo's skills are more about personal internal work, such as Honglu Transmutation and Sun and Moon Wall, which are all about refining the spiritual energy of heaven and earth for personal use. The martial arts in it are about studying some mythical beasts or natural phenomena to achieve the effect of improving martial arts.

"I am only comparing foundation-building techniques. I don't have a deep understanding of techniques from other realms in foreign countries, so it's better not to have prejudices."

Su Yun thought for a moment and asked, "Yingying, do you know anything about foreign countries?"

"I have never left Tiandao Academy before, and all I know about overseas countries comes from the books in Wenyuan Pavilion."

Yingying sat on his shoulders, holding her chin with both hands, and said, "I heard that when overseas countries were still in the period of ignorance, Yuanshuo was already extremely developed. One day, the emperor ordered people to build ships for expeditions overseas, but they saw that the people overseas were still eating raw meat and drinking blood. The emperor lost interest and had no desire to conquer there. Later, spiritualists repeatedly crossed the ocean to go there, and wrote books such as "Records of Maritime Countries", "Records of Overseas Strange Stories", "Examination of Foreign Countries", "Illustration of Marine Tricks", and "Illustration of Sea Monsters". The language of Yuanshuo spread there, and slowly the languages spoken by the overseas countries also became Yuanshuo language."

Su Yun was lost in thought, thinking about that period when many spiritualists traveled across oceans, landed in foreign lands, investigated the mountains and rivers, geography, customs and people, and passed on Yuanshuo culture.

That is exploring an unknown land, and you will definitely discover many strange, weird and incredible things.

"Later, foreign civilizations gradually emerged overseas, and many envoys were sent to learn Yuan Shuo's culture and spread Yuan Shuo's cultivation methods overseas. Because they had to cross the ocean, there were many storms, demons, ghosts, and incredible phenomena on the sea, so many people died."

Yingying stretched out her palm and pressed down. The text pattern of the Heavenly Divine Illumination Guidance Chapter that was dancing around Su Yun was compressed into a book and floated in front of Su Yun.

"It is a trend to study abroad in foreign countries. It is said that those countries call Yuanshuo the Celestial Empire."

She also compressed the other five techniques into books and said, "Until forty-seven years ago, everything changed. I grew up watching Qiu Shuijing. I remember the first book he chose when he entered Tiandao Academy and Wenyuan Pavilion. One day, he entered Wenyuan Pavilion, but he didn't choose a book. Instead, he said goodbye to me."

Yingying was in a daze.

At that time, Qiu Shuijing no longer had the high spirits of a favored child of destiny. Instead, he was depressed. He was deeply hit, but seemed to have made up his mind.

He told Yingying that he wanted to study abroad, cross the ocean, and go to the foreign country across the ocean to learn the martial arts and supernatural powers there, and learn the strengths of the Semu people.

He told Yingying that the magical powers of the overseas Semites had surpassed Yuan Shuo's, and that they were far superior to Yuan Shuo in both spiritual weapons and transportation.

They came from the sea, and their huge ships drove straight in, broke into Yuanshuo's port, and plundered Yuanshuo's wealth.

They used spiritual weapons to kill Yuan Shuo's people, defeated Yuan Shuo's masters, and trampled on the dignity of this ancient empire.

Their military force crushed Yuan Shuo, and their knowledge was called new learning, which also crushed Yuan Shuo's old sacred learning!

This kind of lead is almost comprehensive!

Therefore, he wanted to study abroad to learn the skills of the people on the other side of the ocean who were once regarded as barbarians by Yuan Shuo. He wanted to learn how they became strong, and then pass it on to the people of Yuan Shuo to change the weak status quo of Yuan Shuo.

"Later, Qiu Shuijing returned from overseas, but I didn't meet him. Decades later, when I met him again, he had already become Qiu Taichang of Tiandaoyuan."

Yingying said: "I asked him if he had achieved his ambition, and he still shook his head."

Su Yun and she both fell silent and stopped talking.

Suddenly, Yingying perked up, rolled up a book and knocked Su Yun's forehead, angrily saying: "It's all your fault for interrupting! Hurry up, hurry up, practice these six exercises and complete your spiritual power!"

Su Yun quickly calmed down and practiced hard, but he would occasionally think of Qiu Shuijing.

Qiu Shuijing used the most precious time of his life trying to change Yuan Shuo and save Yuan Shuo, but failed in the end. Su Yun couldn't help but recall Qiu Shuijing's slightly melancholy and hoarse voice when he first met him.

"The teacher failed to realize his ambitions, so was his path wrong? What was Zuo Pushe's path? Who was right and who was wrong between the two of them?"

He recalled the manifestation of obsession he encountered in the Big Shot Temple. The Big Shot and the teenage Qiu Shuijing were both scholars of the Tiandao Academy, and the conversation between them left a deep impression on him.

"Don't be distracted!"

Yingying rolled up another book and tapped his forehead: "Otherwise you wouldn't be able to learn these six sets of exercises today!"

When the dragon chariot arrived at the Tong family's immortal residence, Zuo Songyan had already been waiting there. He exchanged polite greetings with the old immortal Tong and Tong Qingyun. Su Yun greeted the old immortal Tong and Tong Qingyun, then sat aside and waited quietly.

The old immortal Tong was chatting and laughing with Zuo Songyan, while Tong Qingyun seemed to be willing to be one generation lower than Zuo Songyan, and said to Su Yun: "I heard that young friend Su has a magic trick, can I see it this time?"

"Is this the reason why Master Tong sent Tong Qiuyu to fight?"

The young girl Wutong asked curiously, "The head of the Tong family wanted to see this magic trick, so he sent the strongest scholar of the Tong family to force the eldest brother to use this magic trick."

Tong Qingyun's gaze fell on her. The young girl Wutong was shocked. Tong Qingyun's gaze went straight to her without any hesitation. It was obvious that his cultivation strength was probably even higher than that of the old immortal Tong!

But she wanted to see what was in Tong Qingyun's heart, but she could see nothing!

The demon can see the demon in a person's heart, but the girl Wutong can't see Tong Qingyun's demon. This is really strange. You know, even Qiu Shuijing can see some demons, but Qiu Shuijing's demons appear very briefly and will be wiped out by him after they appear.

"It's impossible that Tong Qingyun is completely free of evil!"

The girl Wutong continued to sense that Tong Qingyun's heart was like a holy land, without any stain.

Tong Qingyun said: "Little girl, don't say anything careless..."

When he uttered the first word, the young girl Wutong was stunned. She saw that Tong Qingyun's seemingly pure heart suddenly became extremely dark. A distorted and hideous face appeared in the darkness. Behind the face were countless hideous and terrifying demons, just like the hell mentioned in Buddhism!

"This person usually hides his inner demon very well, but once he speaks, the demon inside him comes out!"

The girl Wutong was shaking with excitement: "Just coming here has greatly improved my cultivation!"

At this moment, a dragon roar was suddenly heard, and a yellow bell appeared above Su Yun's head involuntarily, emitting a bell sound.

"Bang!"

The yellow bell vibrated, and pieces of extremely thin dragon scales the size of shields flew in from outside the Immortal Residence and quickly circled around Su Yun. The big yellow bell rotated and the sound of the bell vibrated.

Suddenly, the sound of the bell became dim. It turned out that there were too many dragon scales, which broke through the defense of the Yellow Bell in one fell swoop!

whoosh whoosh whoosh!

A series of sounds of breaking through the air were heard, and Su Yun, who was sitting there, was instantly covered with dragon scales like large shields!

Tong Qiuyu was extremely excited, jumping like the wind and continuing to use his magical powers. Dozens of dragon scales flew over and stood up in the air, like dozens of mirrors!

The strange thing is that there is a strange dragon eye in the center of each mirror.

The dragon's eyes are open.

"boom!"

The divine light in the mirror bloomed and shone on Su Yun's body. A violent shock came, and Su Yun, along with the dragon scales and the big yellow bell, were blasted high into the air and hung on the curtain window of the Immortal Residence.

"I got it!" the girl Wutong shouted excitedly.

Suddenly, pieces of dragon scales flew up, and Su Yun, who was under the dragon scales, was almost unharmed, with only his clothes cut.

Tong Qiuyu's face changed drastically, and he saw the dragon scales breaking apart and turning into vital energy and dissipating.

On the curtain window, Su Yun jumped up, took a step in the air and came in front of Tong Qiuyu. He pushed his hands forward heavily, and the yellow bell spun wildly and pushed forward!

Tong Qiuyu frantically mobilized his energy and blood, trying his best, and displayed his magical powers to fight him head-on. However, the violent magic power in Su Yun's magical power directly crushed him!

Tong Qiuyu saw that his magical power, which had not yet taken shape, exploded directly, and then the ten fingers of his hands twisted, the finger bones and wrist bones broke, and the arm bones also broke backwards!

He was knocked flying by the terrifying impact force and landed on a bronze pillar in a huge shape.

Su Yun withdrew his hand, and Tong Qiuyu fell to the ground with a thud.

Su Yun took out a Qinghong coin, held it in both hands, and respectfully placed it in front of Tong Qingyun, saying, "Tong Pushe wants to see my magic, but it's not convenient today. Pushe's family is having a funeral, so I don't want to disturb them. Let's do it another day."

Tong Qingyun looked at him with a smile on his face. He never even looked to see whether Tong Qiuyu was dead or alive.

"Is this the immortal body that can withstand the impact of immortal arts?" Tong Qingyun looked at Su Yun and asked with a smile.

The girl Wutong was inexplicably excited. In her eyes, the devil in Tong Qingyun's heart became more and more intense. In the end, Tong Qingyun's figure was like a demon king wearing an imperial crown, sitting on the throne of the emperor, with countless gods and demons kneeling at his feet!

"His desires have completely twisted him! Power and immortality have made him more like a human-demon than a human-demon!"

Suddenly, the second cave in the girl Wutong's spiritual world opened up, which made her even more excited: "If I can stay with Tong Qingyun, my cultivation will surely advance by leaps and bounds, and I can cultivate to the Yuandong realm in just a few days! What a pity, he is too dangerous!"

In that brief moment when the devil in Tong Qingyun's heart erupted, the young girl Wutong took advantage of this opportunity to cultivate to the second cave heaven in one fell swoop. The speed at which her cultivation strength improved was truly incredible!

Su Yun shook his head and said, "Tong Pushe is overthinking. There is no immortal body in this world, and no one is immortal. Even if you are an emperor or a saint, you still can't escape death, right?"

He walked outside.

Tong Qingyun's voice came from behind him, and he said with a smile: "There are immortal bodies in this world, because there is the immortal world in this world, and there are also visitors from the immortal world! In the past, in Tianshiyuan, there was a person who was rumored to be immortal and escaped. He was the son of the God King! He carries the secret of immortality!"

Su Yun turned a deaf ear and walked out of Tong's house.

Li Zhuxian, Master Ye Luo, and Bai Yuelou followed Su Yun. Li Zhuxian turned back and waved, "Wutong, let's go!"

The girl Wutong followed them reluctantly, thinking: "What a pity for this demon cave..."

Tianshiyuan, the old uninhabited area, the Palace of the God King.

Saint Xue of Xue Qing Mansion sat there quietly, facing him were the God King whose body was shrouded in brilliant divine light, and the old Demon King whose entire body was shrouded in demonic aura.

The Palace of the God King was like an imperial court, with the Eight Heavenly Generals and other demon kings sitting in a precarious position with ferocious looks on their faces.

"Saint Xue, you came here alone, do you think you can leave alive?"

The old demon king shouted fiercely: "Today is different from the past. Let me tell you, the old immortal of the Zhou family is here too!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Wanxiang, the old immortal of the Zhou family, walked out from the back hall of the Palace of the God King in a charming manner. Although this woman was at least over 170 years old, she looked like a beautiful woman in her twenties or thirties, and had a seductive charm.

"Xue Qingfu, are you willing to die today?"

Zhou Wanxiang covered her mouth and laughed, "Do you think no one could have expected you to come here and persuade the God King and the old Demon King? As long as they knew what you were going to do, it wouldn't be difficult to kill you."

Xue Qingfu sighed and said faintly: "Zhou family, that's what I meant as well."

He took out a jade pendant, placed it on the table, and pushed it forward.

The God King and the Old Demon King of the Old No Man's Land looked at the jade pendant together. They saw that the jade pendant was like a door with a half-opened book engraved on it.

"God King, Old Demon King, is it time to fulfill your promise?"

Xue Qingfu took the token, stood up and walked out, saying, "Send her on her way."
