Starting from the Greyhound, seventy-two changes.

boom! !

The bronze three-legged, two-handled cauldron, which looked like a large palace, was like a flying mountain falling from the sky, and it landed on the white jade square in front of the Tuoshan Palace with a loud bang.

Wow~~
The big cauldron struck the formation, as if dropping a huge cannonball into the sea of ​​clouds, causing the boundless sea of ​​clouds above the cloud formation to suddenly explode as if a small mushroom cloud had been exploded in the middle. The entire cloud formation was blasted open by the impact force that was emptied out!
This immediately attracted Qin Yuxian, Shan Lingguan and Chen Ku who were in the formation. They watched helplessly as the huge cauldron dominated all their sight above their heads.

"Such a huge cauldron!" Chen Ku's action of attacking Shangguan Yun was interrupted in an instant. His face changed with horror. He saw that the area hundreds of feet above his head was covered by the huge cauldron, which was smashing down like the dark sky. It seemed that it did not distinguish between friend and foe and was going to kill all the people in the formation with one cauldron.

"A Qigong practitioner from the Yuan Kingdom, an eighth-level magic weapon!"

Fortunately, at this time, due to the power of the big cauldron, a gap appeared in the sky above the Yunchui Formation, allowing Shan Lingguan and Qin Yuxian, who were trapped in the formation, to immediately discover each other and Chen Ku's positions.

"Don't panic, disciple! Here comes the master!"

As Chen Ku heard the voice of Shan Lingguan, he saw that the tall old man had expanded to two meters tall, nearly seven meters tall, like a giant.

He ran wildly with his big feet, his long gray hair flying wildly, and immediately soared into the sky towards the huge cauldron that was falling towards them.

Step forward, lower your waist, and punch!

Boom!

It was like countless thunders exploding under his feet!
The rolling waves of earth rose into the sky like a giant dragon!

At this moment, even Shangguan Yun, the master of the formation, felt that he could not stand in the formation. He looked in horror and fear at the figure who was punching the cauldron.

“Yelü Xuandu!!”

How could he not know whose treasure this fallen tripod belonged to? It was the help of the bronze axe general he invited from the Yuan Kingdom's Treasure Tripod Sect to break through the gate of the underground palace. However, his use of this man was limited to entering the gate...

After entering the gate of the underground palace, this person will naturally no longer be needed.

That's why he proposed to split up with the others and look for the entrance. Yelu Xuandu had a trick up his sleeve at the time and sent his nephew to follow him. However, he didn't expect that Shangguan Yun was more skilled and directly relied on the information gap to awaken the knife puppet in the underground palace, and then forced back the Yuan Kingdom Qigong practitioner Gao Huan with one sword.

Unexpectedly, Yelu Xuandu, without a map or route guidance, was able to enter the underground palace so quickly on his own.

But at this time, Shangguan Yun no longer had the heart to stay here.

Seeing the big tripod falling, the tall Shan Lingguan was there to hold it up. He looked at Chen Ku unwillingly, realizing that even if he controlled the Lingyun Flag and the Yunchui Formation and had a seventh-level puppet by his side, he would not be able to snatch the tiger talisman from Chen Ku.

And Yelu Xuandu was unable to continue communicating because he had tricked him.

Plan for today...

The only option was to break into the Tuoshan Hall.

It turned out that when he entered the Tuoshan Hall just now, he clearly saw a mural at the back of the hall. It was a mural of the chivalrous king Pei Dongliu leading the Four Heavenly Kings to dominate the world. The most important thing was...

Shangguan Yun could clearly sense with his spiritual vision that the mural was just a disguise and there was actually another world behind it.

"If I'm not mistaken, the most important 'King's Palace' in this underground palace is behind that mural."

At this moment, Shangguan Yun took advantage of the moment when Shan Lingguan went to resist Yelu Xuandu's magic weapon, and his figure disappeared directly into the clouds. He flipped the Lingyun flag in his hand, and quietly escaped into the Tuoshan Hall with the Seven Realms Puppet.

And at the same time Shangguan Yun was secretly escaping.

boom!
The next moment, amidst the violent crackling sound of Shan Lingguan's bones like the roar of a dragon and a tiger, countless fists whistled out through the air, as if ancient gods had mobilized the mountains of the world to rise from the ground!

It fell heavily on Yelu Xuandu's big cauldron!

"Shangguan Yunxiu, don't leave!"

Yelu Xuandu was standing on a high place, and he actually saw clearly how Shangguan Yun took the opportunity to sneak into the hall, but he did not take any action yet.

Then he heard a loud bang as if thousands of thunderbolts exploded simultaneously under his cauldron.

Immediately afterwards, it seemed as if countless thunders bombarded his cauldron, directly blasting it into the sky like a huge sandbag!

"what?"

Yelu Xuandu was in awe. As a senior Qigong practitioner of the Yuan Kingdom's Baoding Sect, he now had three hundred years of Taoist experience. He had devoted his entire life to refining this 'One Qi Mountain and River Cauldron' and had already refined this magic weapon to the eighth level. It could change at will. When it was small, it was only the size of a fingernail, and when it was big, it spread out to an area of ​​one acre. When it smashed down, it was like mountains and rivers falling. Even among the many eighth-level Qigong practitioners in his Yuan Kingdom, few dared to take on the suppression of his One Qi Mountain and River Cauldron.

As a result, he was knocked out by some unknown expert in the clouds.

And when his cauldron flew back, he also saw clearly the figures of the three people who appeared after Shangguan Yun withdrew the Yunchui Formation, especially the old man who shook his cauldron back.

His fists were surrounded by boundless air currents, and he looked tall and tall like a demon.

"The Qigong practitioner from Yuan Kingdom!" At this time, Qin Yuxian was no longer restrained by the formation and the Seventh Realm Sword Puppet, and he successfully came behind Shan Lingguan. He said solemnly, "This is the Qigong practitioner from Yuan Kingdom who broke the bronze puppet at the gate of the underground palace. He is not of our race. Uncle Master, let me help you. Let's take him down first."

However, Chen Ku noticed that Shangguan Yun had disappeared here, and the only ones left on the ground were Sui You, who was beaten to death by him, and Xu Minjun, whose life or death was unknown.

"Master, uncle, Shangguan Yun seems to have broken into the hall!" He immediately told the two people this information.

Yelu Xuandu saw that a single spiritual officer could knock back his Yiqi Shanhe Ding with one punch, and at the same time felt Qin Yuxian's momentum, and his heart was awed:

"These two Ji country warriors are more powerful than the other. One of them is probably Qin Yuxian, the president of the Qiulong Martial Arts Association. I can't get entangled with them. I'd better go after Shangguan Yun first. If I follow him, I will definitely find the 'Xutian Treasure Box'."

So, he put away the tripod in his hand, and his body turned into a streak of light in the sky, and rushed directly into the Tuoshan Hall. "You hit me, and you want to leave like this!" Shan Lingguan didn't tolerate it at all, and his body was like a long dragon, chasing straight into the hall.

"Uncle-master!" Qin Yu was afraid that his uncle would suffer a loss, so he picked up the small golden hammer and rushed forward to kill him.

"Master, Senior Brother...Alas!"

Only then did Chen Ku realize that his master had a rather hot temper and seemed unable to tolerate any slightest grievance.

Just as he was about to take Sui You's storage bag and the bear's body.

But I heard a weak voice of a woman on the ground not far away:
"Thank you, young hero."

Chen Ku turned around and saw that the person who spoke was Xu Minjun, whose tendons and veins were broken all over his body after being hit by his "Mountain Roaring Sea Seal".

He raised his eyebrows slightly:
"You, thank me?"

He saw that the woman seemed to have regained consciousness.

Xu Minjun was leaning against a stone railing, her white clothes were stained with blood, her face was pale, but it matched her beautiful face, presenting a broken beauty.

She laughed sadly, "Because of me, my entire clan was destroyed, and in the end, he used me as a toy, imprisoned me in his mind, to help him achieve his ambitions. If it weren't for you, I would be living a life worse than death, with my mind being toyed with by him. Although you almost killed me, you also woke me up."

Chen Ku did not answer. He felt that this woman was an example of a love-brained woman who was deceived by a scumbag and ended up in disgrace and brought disaster to her family. He felt neither pity nor ridicule.

Xu Minjun wiped the blood from his mouth and nose, turned his head and looked towards the Tuoshan Hall, and said, "I only have one breath left now, and there is no possibility of survival. I wanted to ask you to kill that scum for me, but I found that I have nothing to give you."

It turned out that whether it was the real blood given to her by Xiong Ying, the tiger talisman, the Lingyun flag, or the puppet, all fell into Shangguan Yun's hands.

The woman said silently:
"There is only one legend that has been passed down in our Xu family since ancient times. I will tell you this. It may be useful to you, young man. It can be used as a favor to buy Shangguan Yun's head."

Chen Ku didn't comment, just said: "Tell me about it?"

Xu Minjun looked towards the Tuoshan Hall and said, "Inside that hall should be the Xia Wang Palace. It is actually a cave, which is the 'inner cave' that Xia Wang Pei Dongliu transformed into after his death. But in fact, the descendants of the four major families have been taught since childhood that 'Xia Wang will come back to life'."

"Resurrection from the dead? The chivalrous king Pei Dongliu?" Chen Ku was surprised.

"It is said that when the Hero King Pei Dongliu robbed Hongjing City, he happened to encounter the opportunity when the Xutian Treasure Box spewed out treasures, and thus obtained a 'stone egg' spit out from the Xutian Treasure Box. The stone egg has nine orifices and eight holes, and is a natural 'holy body'. Once refined, it has the cultivation level of the eleventh realm at birth. Later, the Hero King regarded it as his second incarnation and kept it for future resurrection." Xu Minjun looked at the hall and said: "If the legend is correct, then this stone egg may exist in the 'cave world' behind the murals in the hall."

"Born as a stone egg? Born at the eleventh level?" Chen Ku took a breath of cold air.

Such a great fortune?

But he immediately asked Xu Minjun, "Does Shangguan Yun know about this?"

"He... naturally knows that."

Xu Minjun closed her eyes awkwardly and said:
"So, you must not let him get the stone egg."

Chen Ku nodded and asked, "Thank you for telling me. Is there anything else you want to tell me?"

Xu Minjun's eyes were already slightly empty, and he said, "No, if you can really kill him, I will be grateful to you on behalf of my entire Xu family."

"Take care of yourself."

Chen Ku took a deep breath and said no more to the woman. He turned around, took Sui You's storage bag and the bear's body, and headed towards the hall.

But he had only walked a dozen steps away.

puff!
Then I heard a sound of "suicide".

Without looking back, he knew that Xu Minjun had ended her life. He sighed and said, "I hope you can meet a good man in your next life."

He immediately entered the Tuoshan Hall.

Suddenly, inside the hall, there were only the master and the senior brother standing in front of a mural, but there was no sign of Shangguan Yun and Yelu Xuandu.

"Disciple, you said before that the Xia Wang Palace drawn on the map is behind the Tuoshan Hall. Now it seems that the entrance is on the mural of this hall. Just now, Xiao Qin and I chased the Yuan Kingdom Qigong practitioner in and watched him enter this mural..." Shan Lingguan turned his head and looked at Chen Ku and said, "Just waiting for you."

"Junior brother, did you say anything to that woman outside the hall just now?" Qin Yuxian had sharp ears and eyes, and he also heard the noise of Xu Minjun committing suicide outside the hall.

Chen Ku told the two elders the stories that had been passed down from generation to generation in several branches of the Xu family.

"Left to revive myself... a stone egg with a natural eleventh-level holy body?" Qin Yu was greatly shocked: "Does the chivalrous king Pei Dongliu have such a backup plan?"

"Stone eggs have spirits and turn into humans. This kind of thing has happened in ancient times." Shan Lingguan stroked his beard, thinking of a story, and said, "In ancient times, there was a Saint King who jumped out of a stone. When he was born, he had a 'Saint Body' that was far superior to the eleventh level of ordinary martial arts. Later, he worshipped in the 'Taiyi Immortal Sect' among the thirty-six ancient immortal sects. After completing his studies, he went down the mountain, surveyed the demons, pacified the chaotic world, and established the 'Dou Dynasty'. He was the Saint King of Dou Dynasty. This Dou Dynasty was also a dynasty that respected martial arts and inherited the Martial Temple."

Chen Ku said that he had learned more about history.

As for the stone egg turning into a human, coincidentally, there is also such a myth and legend in his world.

Isn't it the Great Sage?

It seems that life springing out of stone is not so rare. (End of this chapter)
