Traveling the Heavens in Thunderbolt

Chapter 51: Heavenly Master's Destruction

Just when Fan Qinghui was at a loss because of the rumors about Cihang Jingzhai, a major event occurred that relieved her of the pressure.

The Tianshi Sect was destroyed overnight, and all the members of the sect died at the hands of the evil martial arts, with all the dead being killed in one blow.

As the news came out, it immediately caused an unprecedented shock in the martial arts world, because this symbolized that the two strongest people of good and evil in the world had formed an irreconcilable feud, and there would be a battle between the two.

When Cihang Jingzhai and the Buddhist community received the news, they were delighted but also felt a little strange.

Just because they had not yet taken the initiative to frame the Demon Sect, they did not expect that the Demon Sect would take the initiative to destroy the Tianshi Sect. This was a good thing as it saved them a lot of trouble.

After all, if it was the Buddhist sect that did it, no one could guarantee that Ling Donglai would not be able to trace the Buddhist sect back through any clues at the scene.

However, after Cihang Jingzhai sent people to investigate the scene, they found some strange places. Among the many corpses of Tianshi Dao disciples, the bodies of "Demon Hidden" Bian Bufu and "Heavenly Lord" Xi Ying were found.

Judging from the positions where their bodies were lying, they must have died together with the Tianshi Dao to fight against the invading enemies, and thus died at the hands of the magic martial arts, or were killed by a single blow.

But looking at the entire Demon Cult, the only ones capable of doing this are Li Gong and the deceased Xiang Yutian.

This is where the weirdness lies. The entire Tianshi Sect was clearly destroyed by the Demon Sect, so why would two people who were also members of the Demon Sect die here? This is the weirdest part of this incident.

However, none of this is important. The most urgent task is to provoke a life-and-death duel between Ling Donglai and Li Gong. After the battle between the two is over, it will not be too late to investigate in detail.

In order to prevent any changes in the life and death battle between the two, the Buddhist sect sent people to secretly bury the bodies of Bian Bufu and Xi Ying, thus confirming that the incident was done by the Demon Sect.

Just when Cihang Jingzhai was fanning the flames of the battle between Ling Donglai and Li Gong, Li Gong also received intelligence from a spy about the destruction of Tianshi Dao and the killings of Bian Bufu and Xi Ying.

Looking at the information on the table, Li Gong thought to himself, well, it seems that because of the appearance of himself and Ling Donglai, some people's paths are blocked, forcing the hidden forces in the Tang Dynasty world to take action, and they want to promote a fight between the two of us by claiming the destruction of Tianshi Dao.

According to the spy's description of the scene, the murderer used the "Great Method of Planting Demons in the Heart of Taoism", and the only way to render Tianshi Dao, Bian Bufu and others powerless to fight back is to reach the eleventh level of this method, "the realm of demonic transformation".

I didn't expect that besides me, there were other people who mastered this skill.

Who was it? Before Xiang Yutian shattered the void, had he ever granted this skill to anyone outside of the Shengji Sect?
Could it be that person?

Since you are so afraid of Ling Donglai and me and can't help but take action yourself, then I will do as you wish. Let's see how long you can hide after that.

However, before fighting with Ling Donglai, he had to resolve the variables before the battle one by one.

Afterwards, he gave orders, ordering everyone in the sect to be careful of the attack from Lingdong, and that he himself would go to Lingnan and arrange for personnel to serve as backup.
-
I am the long-lost dividing line——
Just when Li Gong went to Lingnan, Ling Donglai finally returned to China.

As soon as we set foot in the middle of the area, we received news from the Buddhist sect headed by Cihang Jingzhai. After repeated verification, we confirmed that the news was true.

He then used his Qinggong skills to quickly return to the Tianshi Dao's residence, but he only saw a yard full of coffins that had been collected by Cihang Jingzhai and a group of fellow martial artists.

While thanking everyone, he threatened to fight Li Gong to avenge himself.

After burying all the people in the sect, he summoned all the branches of the Tianshi Dao and re-selected disciples with outstanding qualifications as the new successors of the Tianshi Dao.

He spent more than a month to train everyone, and then, saying that he would have to fight against the Demon Sect in the future, he could not protect them all, so he ordered them to go into seclusion and find a place to rebuild the Tianshi Dao.

It's like going into the Demon Sect alone and working hard for a while.

Although the members of the Demon Sect had been prepared, they were still no match for Ling Donglai's might. In the first battle, Ling Donglai was unstoppable, An Long of the Lotus Sect was killed, Zhu Yuyan, Zhao Deyan and others were seriously injured, and the might of the righteous sect, which had already fallen into decline, was boosted.

Afterwards, he forced to tell Li Gong's whereabouts. After learning from Zhu Yuyan and others that Li Gong had gone to Lingnan for some business, he left a palm strike on the plaque of the Holy Church Hall to declare war.

He also asked Zhu Yuyan and others to tell Li Gong that he would meet him at the Xuanwu Gate in Chang'an City in three months to fight to the death.

Then he floated away, announcing to the world his strength as the number one righteous man.

While Ling Donglai was sweeping across the Demon Sect, Li Gong showed up in the Song clan and went to the Grinding Knife Hall in person to fight Song Que.

The head of the Song clan, Song Que, is a rare genius in the Central Plains martial arts world in a century. He is a master on the level of Ning Daoqi. He has defeated the number one swordsman at the time since he was in his 20s, and his sword-dominating Yue Shan is famous throughout the world.

He had never tasted defeat. Even though there were many masters of the Demon Sect, they still had to avoid the Lingnan area where his sphere of influence was, so as not to anger this outstanding figure who was known as "the world's number one knife expert."

No one has dared to challenge him in the past twenty years, which shows his importance in the martial arts world.

He was also the most famous handsome man in the martial arts world of the previous generation. He was always aloof and arrogant, looking down on others, but never killing innocent people. He was cold on the outside but warm on the inside. He was once in love with Fan Qinghui, but they were unable to get together.

Finally, in order to concentrate on martial arts instead of indulging in the pleasures of the boudoir, he married an ugly woman in his middle age.

He himself has a great deterrent effect on the Demon Sect. Even the Queen of Yin Zhu Yuyan and the Evil King Shi Zhixuan would not easily provoke him. If it weren't for his bad popularity, his reputation would not be inferior to Ning Daoqi.

And his military ability is rare in the world. In the original novel, he supported Kou Zhong. When the young marshal's army led by Kou Zhong retreated all the way south due to the fall of Luoyang, with heavy casualties, and retreated south to Tiancheng Gorge to prepare for the final attack, Song Que actually led the Song family army to arrive in time!

Song Que did not wait until spring to go north to provide support. Instead, he took advantage of the time difference in Lingnan's remoteness and the fact that news could not be transmitted to the north immediately, and went north to meet up with Shaoshuai's army before the winter freezing period, thus creating a stalemate between the north and the south.

If it weren't for the scoundrel Kou Zhong, it would be hard to say who would win.

He is truly a perfect person, just as the saying goes "Song is flawless, and the Heavenly Sword is not the Way."

Li Gong's purpose of coming to Lingnan was to get rid of this person to prevent any changes in his future plans.

Song Que had long thought about the famous "Blood Hand" Li Gong in the martial arts world. In addition, he had the revenge of the destruction of Duzun Castle, so he naturally agreed.

In the battle between the two, Song Que showed that he had nothing else but the sword. After getting the sword, he forgot the true meaning of the sword, the ultimate of the sword, and used all the Eight Secrets of the Heavenly Sword. Under the pressure of Li Gong, he broke through to the state of unity between man and nature.

Li Gong had to admit that Song Que was the most difficult enemy he had ever encountered since his debut, but this only aroused his determination to kill him.

For the first time, he brought into play the power of the twelfth level of the Dao Heart Demon Cultivation Method, the "Demon Fairy", and used his huge foundation to form a crushing situation, using the "Six Forbidden Styles of Demonic Disasters: Demonic Disaster Shaking the Sky".

The sword force of the ninth style of the Heavenly Sword shattered Song Que head-on, causing him irreparable injuries.

But the price he paid was that he was also injured by Song Que's sword intent.

After learning the martial arts, Li Gong wanted to find a secluded place to reunite with the people of the Holy Church who were previously arranged in Lingnan, and heal his injuries under their protection.

Halfway through the journey, they suddenly met a man blocking the road.

It was Cihang Jingzhai’s gold medal fighter, “Sanren” Ning Daoqi.
