Zhutian: My skills are not serious

Chu Pingsheng did not respond to Zhong Li's question: "By the way, I'll help you solve the problem of heaven's punishment."

After saying this, he identified the direction and walked straight to the home of the coastal fisherman who had boarded his horses.

Are saving Xu Qian'an and helping her resolve the divine punishment the same thing?
Zhong Li didn’t understand, and Ye Ji and You Ji were even more confused.

Chu Pingsheng did not explain to them, because if he explained Xu Qian'an's situation, he would most likely be asked why he could know what was happening on the mainland while he was in the South China Sea.

In order not to cause trouble to myself, I just don't say anything.

As for why Xu Qian'an went from Yunzhou to Yongzhou.

It's simple, something happened to Wu Haolina.

Taoist Jinlian discovered that the No. 5 Jade Mirror had lost contact near Xiangcheng, and suspected that Chilian, Chenglian and others were responsible, so he called on the people of Tiandi Society to rescue their companions. Xu Qian'an evaded responsibility in his name, saying that he had something important to deal with, but would let his "brother-in-law" go to help. He also boasted to everyone not to look down on his "brother-in-law" because his "brother-in-law"'s mount was awesome. When they met a fifth-rank bandit leader in Yunzhou, he slapped him to death with one slap, so it would be no problem to use it to deal with fourth-rank Taoists like Chilian and Chenglian.

The people in Tiandi Society didn’t know what Lina had encountered, but Chu Pingsheng naturally knew it.

Now Xu Qian'an has no divine protection. He is just a rookie who has barely broken through to the sixth level under his guidance. If he encounters that thing, he will die.

……

at the same time.

The main building in the backyard of Lingbao Temple in Dafeng Capital.

The sandalwood burns gently, the smoke curls up, and the sunlight casts a golden layer on the floating dust.

It was a warm and lazy afternoon, but in contrast to the surrounding environment, Luo Yuheng, wearing a Tai Chi robe, supported himself on the ground with his hands, his face was scorched yellow, and beads of sweat the size of beans on his forehead fell one by one to the ground as his chest rose and fell violently, wetting the yellow silk cushion.

"Junior sister, junior sister..."

Outside, Half Moon Zhenren's anxious shouts were heard. Luo Yuheng gathered his true energy and swung out a ray of green light, dispersing the formation that prevented outsiders from breaking in.

Squeak.

With the sound of the door opening, Master Ban Yue walked into the quiet room with a chill. Seeing Luo Yuheng in poor condition, he hurried over to help her up: "Junior sister, how are you?"

"Just barely...just barely suppressed it."

"The fire of karma is getting heavier again?"

"Yes..." Luo Yuheng said breathlessly, his hair wet with sweat and sticky together.

"Hey, Junior Sister, why are you so anxious?"

Master Ban Yue sighed and said, "You should know that your health is more important than your cultivation."

While supporting Luo Yuheng's back, he transferred pure true energy to help comb through the injured meridians.

In the battle at Qinglong Temple, Luo Yuheng's water attribute Dharma image was shattered and her cultivation was damaged under the siege of the Wushen Sect's spiritual master and the bear king who had obtained the Shura King's arm bonus. After returning to Lingbao Temple, she has been trying to condense the water attribute Dharma image again for a while, but she has failed several times. The last time, she even triggered the karmic fire and almost couldn't suppress it and turned into ashes. Unexpectedly, just when she was feeling better, it happened again...

“Sister… No… I didn’t try to reunite the Dharma this time… It was the karmic fire… The energy of the karmic fire was accumulating.”

With the help of external forces, Luo Yuheng's condition improved slightly: "This time I barely suppressed the fire... I don't know if I can do it next time..."

"Isn't it due to the condensation of the Dharma?" The expression of Ban Yue Zhenren changed again and again, and he said with resentment: "Yuan Jing, that tyrant, said he would not supply the dragon energy and he really stopped supplying the dragon energy. He didn't even think about it. If you didn't want to help him share his worries, why would you save the monk Kaiguang? If you didn't save the monk Kaiguang, why would you be injured by the demon tribe?"

"Senior Sister, talking about this now... is meaningless."

"Junior sister, I think why don't you go find the Supervisor?"

"..."

Luo Yuheng was silent. The relationship between Lingbao Temple and Sitianjian was far from being as friendly as the royal family claimed to the outside world. After all, disciples of the Renzong needed good luck to suppress the karmic fire and resist disasters in order to be promoted to a higher level. Warlocks also needed good luck to assist in promotion. The two sides were in a potentially hostile relationship. At her and the Supervisor's level, they knew very well that Dafeng's good luck was only enough to make a first-grade strongman.

Master Ban Yue said, "As you said, this time it was already very dangerous, so what about next time? With your cultivation level, even if Senior Brother comes back, I'm afraid it will be a drop in the bucket."

Luo Yuheng continued to remain silent.

"Why not, Junior Sister, just agree to Yuan Jing's request."

"Senior sister!"

The corners of Luo Yuheng's mouth twitched, showing some anger and a bit of hatred.

After the farce of the Yayuan competition, the people in Lingbao Temple simply went all out and spread the news that the monk who had consecrated the palace and she had ascended to paradise. They thought that Yuan Jing would compromise and give up after learning that the matter was done and continue to supply dragon energy. After all, a second-rank strongman was very important to Dafeng, and it would be better to try one's best to retain her than to force her to defect to the West. However, this did not happen. Yuan Jing even went to Lingbao Temple in person and told Master Banyue that he did not believe the rumors. Even if the situation was true, it was only a stopgap measure and did not count. He and the National Master were both cultivators and did not care about so many things.

In short, he didn't care what Luo Yuheng had done with the monk. As long as she nodded, she would be the fairy concubine of Dafeng.

In order to gain profit from dual cultivation, the dignified Emperor of Dafeng had lost all his dignity.

……

Yongzhou.

Outside Xiangcheng, there is a lotus-shaped mountain with a river flowing at the base, wrapping it around its waist like a jade belt. There is a powerful green dragon on the left and an affectionate white tiger on the right. It is an excellent Feng Shui treasure land no matter how you look at it.

However, at this moment, if a sorcerer casts the spell of fortune-telling, he will find that the mountain is filled with foul air and the wind is extremely heavy.

If you get closer, you will find that the strong foul smell is coming from a large hole. It must be because the tomb robbers left in a hurry and did not fill the tomb with soil.

In fact, it was not that the tomb robbers forgot to backfill the tomb, but that they could not backfill the tomb because they all died in this royal tomb.

Xu Qian'an knew about this situation when he came down from above and saw the corpses next to the coffin. However, he learned that those corpses were members of the Hou Tu Gang only after Taoist Jinlian and Chu Yuanzhen killed a lizard-like evil creature bred in the tomb and rescued several survivors.

Then, relying on the connection of the jade mirror, they saw the seriously injured Gu clan girl Lina, because she was attacked by a sinister creature when she was rescuing the leader of the Hou Tu Gang, and her abdomen was injured. Her condition was quite serious.

However, Taoist Priest Jinlian assured everyone, saying that as long as her natal Gu was still there, it could help her slowly repair her body, and she would get better little by little over time.

Xu Qian'an couldn't let her get better little by little. After all, Lina was unconscious. Not only would she be missing some help, but she would also have to have someone to take care of her. So he walked to the girl from the Gu tribe, pried open her mouth and stuffed a pill into it.

Everyone thought that she lost contact with everyone because she was blocked by the group of Chenglian and Chilian, but it turned out not to be the case. She came to rob the tomb with the people from Houtu Gang. Unexpectedly, this tomb was not only dangerous but also weird. Not only did it breed evil objects that could fight against fifth-grade strong men, but it was also protected by formations. It was easy to get in but difficult to get out.

The reason why Lina's jade mirror disappeared here was because the formation blocked the "signal". The people of Hou Tu Gang had been trapped here for some time. They had eaten all the food they brought and could not find a way out.

"Abao, carry her for a while, and then put her down when she wakes up."

Xu Qian'an put Lina on Abao's back, and discussed with Taoist Jinlian, Chu Yuanzhen, and the leader of the Houtu Gang, and decided to go to the main tomb chamber where they had never dared to go - there were so many powerful evil creatures in the side rooms and corridors, and God knows if there would be even more terrifying existences in the main tomb chamber.

The survivors of the Hou Tu Gang looked at the adorable "giant panda" in horror, because just now, this guy slapped to death the Yin creature equivalent to a fifth-grade great perfection warrior that had seriously injured Lina.

What does this mean? It means that this bear has at least the combat power of the fourth rank.

"Hurry up, don't dawdle."

The leader of the Houtu Gang shouted, and several surviving gang members stopped whispering and quickly followed. With Taoist Master Jinlian and the Holy Son of the Human Sect in front of them, and a bear monster with thick skin and flesh, as strong as a stone wall behind them, they felt a lot safer.

The crowd walked forward for a while and came to the front of the main tomb chamber. Taoist Jinlian walked over and pushed open the heavy stone door.

quack quack...

The stone door opened, and behind it was an open corridor. On both sides of the corridor, candles made from the oil of the corpse of the East China Sea red dragon were burning for a long time. There were also two rows of mummies wearing armor and holding spears in their hands.

After making sure there was no danger, everyone continued to move forward and saw the murals on the corridor that were true to history. There were Taoist priests slaying dragons, usurping the throne, and becoming kings...

After some malicious speculation and sighs, Xu Qian'an saw the door of the main tomb chamber. Taoist Jinlian, as he had done before, exerted a force to open it.

Teng, Teng, Teng...

The huge lamps at the four corners of the main tomb chamber lit up, and the burning corpse oil emitted a very peculiar fragrance.

What appeared in front of everyone was a high platform with ninety-nine steps in front of it.

The defense array of the tomb chamber at the rear is activated, so it is impossible to get out. Now that we have reached the main tomb chamber, we can only bite the bullet and move forward.

"Hmm...it's so bright here...something, so furry and itchy."

Just at this moment, the Gu girl who was buried in Abao's hair sat up.

"Master Jinlian?!"

Seeing the old man in a torn Taoist robe, slovenly and a little wretched in front of her, the girl, who was still dressed in southern barbarian style, showing her slim waist and even had a navel pierced in her navel, was overjoyed: "You came to save me?"

"Shh..."

Chu Yuanzhen raised his finger and made a gesture of silence.

Lina looked at the survivors of the Hou Tu Gang who were in a state of emergency, and then looked at the magnificent main tomb chamber in front of her. Suddenly, her scalp went numb. She thought she had left the strange ancient tomb, but she didn't expect to be still trapped inside.

"who are you?"

She looked at the sword case behind Chu Yuanzhen and spoke in a low voice.

"I am number four."

"Number Four? The Holy Son of the Human Clan?"

Chu Yuanzhen was about to smile and nod, but suddenly she said, "The Chu Yuanzhen who always loses when arguing with the Saintess of Tianzong?"

The hair on Taoist Jinlian's temples swayed, and his expression looked a little unnatural.

The same is true for Chu Yuanzhen.

She took the trouble to come here to save people, but she exposed their shortcomings as soon as they met? This really fits the character of Wuhao. Fortunately, the Holy Son of the Human Clan was not a petty person and did not argue with her.

"Yes, it's me."

Lina patted the docile and honest giant panda under her again.

"What about it?"

"Its name is Abao." Chu Yuanzhen pointed to Xu Qian'an who was shaking his head and observing the structure of the tomb in front of him. The latter happened to look back.

Lina said, "Can you give it to me?"

Xu Qian'an thought he had heard wrongly, and so did everyone else. A Bao also blinked his eyes in confusion, looking at this woman who spoke without restraint.

Of course Xu Qian'an couldn't give her the life-saving device: "I'm afraid that won't work."

"why?"

"Because I am not its owner."

"Who is its owner then?"

"Master of Consecration."

"Is it number three's pet?"

"I am No. 3's brother-in-law." Xu Qian'an introduced himself solemnly.

Lina didn't care what his relationship with the monk was. She poked her cheek with her index finger, muttered in confusion, "How can a stinky monk have such a cute pet?"

Chu Yuanzhen thought to himself, if you knew what this bear monster originally looked like, you wouldn’t say it was cute.

Xu Qian'an was very upset with her attitude. He came all the way from Yunzhou to Xiangcheng to save her, but she ignored him: "Hey, little girl, I'm your savior."

Qian You, the leader of the Houtu Clan who led them down the ancient tomb, said, "Speaking of which, Lord Xu, the elixir you just fed her was amazing. In just half an incense stick of time, Miss Lina's injury was actually healed."

She then reacted and touched her lower abdomen which was bitten by the tomb lizard. She found that it had recovered as before without even a scar. The self-healing ability of the Gu clan is the strongest among all the cultivators in the world. As long as the natal Gu is not damaged, the human body can basically be repaired unless the injury is fatal on the spot. It is just a matter of time.

However, it is obvious that with the power of the power Gu, it is impossible to repair such injuries within a day.

Xu Qian'an didn't dare to say that he had made the elixir himself. Bragging like this was as stupid as showing off his wealth every day. It was definitely not a good thing to be remembered by poor and lazy relatives and friends. But it was different if one took advantage of the power of another. Bragging like this was beneficial and harmless.

"I asked the master for this. It's very precious."

"It's him again, humph!"

Lina touched her throat.

Taoist Jinlian asked, "What are you doing?"

"I don't want to owe that monk a favor."

The Hou Tu Gang had no idea what grudges there were between them and were confused, except for the wild old sorcerer and the deputy leader of the Hou Tu Gang, Gong Yang Su.

Lina is carrying the powerful Gu, and she is most likely a member of the Gu tribe. In recent years, the Tianyu Buddhist sect has been continuously expanding its territory in the south, and has had occasional friction with the Gu tribe. Moreover, in the war twenty years ago, the Gu tribe and the demon tribe formed an offensive and defensive alliance, but were finally defeated by the combined forces of Dafeng and Tianyu. With such a background, it would be strange for Lina to accept the favor of the monk.

Chu Yuanzhen was speechless and helpless to this southern girl who spoke bluntly and left no room for maneuver: "I think it's better to settle any grudges between you two after you get out."

Taoist Jinlian nodded: "Mr. Chu is right."

Xu Qian'an also agreed. Relying on A Bao's protection, he could be considered the strongest person in the team. He walked in front without hesitation, climbing the stairs step by step and coming to the high platform in front.

Sure enough, there was a stone door on the opposite side, which was the same as the stone door that opened behind him. According to the map drawn by the Hou Tu Gang after many days of exploring the underground palace, they should be able to exit from the stone door on the opposite side.

The leader of the Hou Tu Gang was delighted and quickly called Qian You, Gong Yang Su and others to open the door.

Taoist Jinlian and Chu Yuanzhen stopped and looked carefully at the black stone coffin on the platform with intricate patterns and exquisite shape.

There are four mummies in front, behind, left and right of the black stone coffin, holding different weapons in their hands, including swords, halberds, guns and knives. Compared with the rusty weapons, the armor they wear is extremely strong. After so many years, the scales are still clear. There are red lines on it, and there are some symbols he doesn't recognize painted on the breastplate.

"Master Jinlian?"

Chu Yuanzhen saw Lina passing by and reminded Taoist Jinlian from behind.

"Oh."

Taoist Jinlian knew that now was not the time to study the coffin. This place was too weird and the longer they stayed, the more dangerous it would be.

"Xu Yinluo? What are you doing?"

He took two steps forward and found Xu Qian'an standing there without moving, which made him feel strange.

"Master, didn't you hear it?"

"What did you hear?"

"This...someone is talking in the coffin."

As soon as he finished speaking, the lid of the coffin began to move, making a creaking friction sound, and soon overturned to one side. Taoist Jinlian, Chu Yuanzhen, Lina, and the wild warlock Gong Yangsu who was at the back all changed their expressions.

The figure in the coffin slowly stood up. It was also a mummy, but different from the mummies they had seen along the way. This mummy had purple skin and was not wearing armor but a dragon robe. He wore a crown on his head and a jade belt. His attire was exactly the same as the Taoist who usurped the throne in the mural in the corridor connecting to the main tomb chamber.

"Who is it? You disturbed...my sleep."

The corpse spoke...

Xu Qian'an took a half step back and said with all his strength, "Senior, we are just borrowing your place for a moment. We don't want to bother you any more. Please continue to sleep. After we leave, we will burn more paper money for you."

As he spoke, he gestured to Chu Yuanzhen and Lina with his hands hidden behind his back, asking them to leave quickly.

"Borrow it? Then leave the contents of your body... as... payment for the passage."

The mummy grabbed towards Xu Qian'an without any warning. Taoist Jinlian quickly swung a stream of energy to attack the mummy, but the soldier next to him moved and swung his sword. He hurriedly withdrew his move to defend himself, but the sword seemed rusty, but it was actually caused by the accumulation of negative energy. As a black mist erupted, it actually began to erode his soul.

Not good. The four soldiers guarding the mummy emperor have been nourished by the yin energy and the earth energy gathered by the imperial mausoleum for a long time. They actually have combat power above the fourth level. He is totally no match for them.

"Roar!"

When A Bao saw that Xu Qian'an was in critical condition, he stomped his bare hands and pounced on the mummy that walked out of the coffin. Unexpectedly, the enemy did not dodge and punched him.

puff!
True energy overflows and Qi bursts out.

Po's bloated body flew backwards, fell onto the long steps and rolled all the way down until he reached the first rest platform, where he stopped and sat on the ground, shaking his head and covering his face.

"what?"

The mummy seemed a little strange. His full-strength attack did not seriously injure the bear monster. It only made it fall dizzy and dazed.

But this is not important. What is important is the luck in the body of the man holding a knife and waving at him.

It should be said that this thing is very important to its owner.

"Heaven-Earth-One-Sword-Cut..."

Xu Qian'an shouted loudly and slashed out a black sword energy, but unexpectedly the mummy raised his hand and grabbed, and with a light snap of his five fingers, he crushed the sword energy.

"Run quickly." Taoist Jinlian used all his strength to knock away the armored soldier's Yin Qi sword: "It's a third-grade sword! Even if we put all our strength together, we are no match for it."

Unfortunately, it's too late to run away now.

The mummy waved his hand casually, and the Taiping sword fell to the ground. He clenched his five fingers again, and Xu Qian'an was pulled in front of him and lifted up by the neck.

Just as Chu Yuanzhen was about to draw out the Qingfeng sword that had been hidden in the sword box for more than ten years, a black shadow suddenly appeared on the high platform. The flames of the oil lamps in the four corners of the main tomb chamber flickered, illuminating a furry tail, which slapped down on the head of the mummy emperor with a tremendous force.

The soldier holding a halberd nearby raised his weapon to block, but heard a crack and it was broken into two pieces. The tail still had the momentum and continued to smash down.

The Mummy Emperor could only temporarily give up the idea of ​​plundering Xu Qian'an's luck and sent out a stream of energy to resist the fox's tail.

Only then did Taoist Jinlian and Chu Yuanzhen see the true face of the uninvited guest. She was actually a noble lady wearing a black long skirt, with the treasure on her chest almost bursting her clothes.

A demon clan? A fox demon?! Are they here to save Po?
Chu Yuanzhen did not participate in the battle of Qinglong Temple, but from Luo Yuheng's later narration and Abao's image, it can be basically concluded that Abao is the bear king of the demon clan, but it is unknown what kind of spell the monk cast on him, and his IQ and strength have greatly deteriorated.

"You are no match for it."

At this time, a voice sounded from where the fox demon came from.

With his throat pinched by the mummy, Xu Qian'an's face turned purple and he shouted intermittently: "Master...save...save me..."

Chu Yuanzhen and Jinlian looked together and saw a figure flying to the platform. It was the monk who had left the capital and disappeared.

puff!
With a loud explosion, Fox Tail was forced back by the mummy's hand. You Ji flipped over in the air, took the opportunity to burst out her demonic power, shook the mummy away, grabbed Xu Qian'an's hand and rescued him.

She was a lower third-grade cultivator who had just been promoted to the extraordinary realm, and the mummy was almost upper third-grade. Normally, it would be impossible for her to rescue the hostages easily, but the mummy's attention was not on her and Xu Qian'an.

"Without his primordial spirit, the Dao Master is only at the level of a third-rank warrior..."

"Tao Zun?"

"That's your master, the one in the murals in the corridor who killed the giant snake, expelled the descendants of gods and demons, and usurped the throne to plunder the fortune. Later generations called him the Taoist Master." (End of this chapter)
