The Great Martial Arts World: Hot Topics and Great Heroes

Without anyone knowing when, the group followed the underground cave to a place near the mountain wall inside the mountain.

A ray of moonlight shone through a crack in the mountain wall onto a stone wall on the opposite side. Because of the ruggedness of the crack, the light and shadow cast by the light looked like a hand pointing the way!

Upon seeing this, everyone was stunned at first, and then someone exclaimed in surprise, "The treasure is there!"

Before Chu Luren could maintain order, the "Dragon God" of White Camel Mountain led Ouyang Ke forward. The giant snake broke through the thin layer of stone membrane and arrived at a spacious area...

Ouyang Ke probably wanted to take a gamble, hoping there were other exits inside, so he could get the most important sword manual and then leave with the "Dragon God" immediately.

The "Dragon God" still has a significant advantage in its activities amidst the cliffs and precipices.

Even if there were no other way out, with the "Dragon God" around, the Chu Lu people wouldn't turn on him over a small breach of etiquette. As for whether or not they would offend him... well, that's how things are between them anyway!

What's more, his actions caused the others to lose their previous order and rush in, fearing that if they were late, someone else would steal the treasure!

Chu Luren's face darkened. He watched these people go in, but he wasn't in a hurry. Instead, he followed behind Murong Jiu and Hua Wuque, who were also in no hurry.

As soon as the three entered, the others who had been standing there in a daze quickly made way for them...

If it were a mountain of gold and silver inside, they would have already started fighting and wouldn't care about Chu Lu and the other two. But after entering, there wasn't a single copper coin, only... many coffins.

It was a tomb!

"Oh no! This place is not far from the back mountain of the Emei Sect. Could it be the resting place of the ancestors of the Emei Sect?" Zhao Quan Hai immediately realized.

"We have stumbled into this place by mistake, haven't we committed a grave taboo? Besides, the dead should be respected, we should leave immediately!" Yin Yewang still carried the burden of being a "wise man".

“Amitabha, esteemed seniors, we monks had no intention of offending you, so we will not disturb you any further. After returning to the temple, we will recite the Rebirth Mantra ten thousand times to reduce the sins of this sect.” Shenshan also quickly put his palms together and said.

Even those members of the evil sects who didn't believe in evil and had no suspicion of Emei were still wary of Abbess Miejue, and at this moment they all wanted to leave as soon as possible...

However, Zhuo Bufan immediately shouted, "Wait! Master Shenshan, Young Master Yin, Young Master Ouyang, don't be fooled. Is there anything in the world more suitable for hiding treasures than a coffin?"

Zhuo Bufan was firstly blinded by rage, and secondly... he feared that once everyone left, he would be no match for Chu Taisui, Nan Murong, and the others, so he preferred to muddy the waters!

Upon hearing this, Yin Yewang and Shenshan both frowned deeply, caught in a dilemma, while people like Ouyang Ke were already preparing to investigate.

Just then, Chu Luren used his lightness skill to leap and land in front of the coffins, angrily saying, "You are all prominent figures in the martial arts world. Do you really intend to disturb the coffin of the Emei patriarch? Moreover... even if you are despicable villains, is Hero Yan also a despicable villain who would leave treasures in the coffin of someone else's patriarch?"

After hearing Chu Luren's words, most of the people gave up their thoughts—Hero Yan... is definitely not that kind of person!

Those who have a sense of pride will inevitably blush with embarrassment for their hesitation just now.

Of course, some people became even more suspicious because of the Chu Lu people's obstruction...

"Oh? Why is Young Master Chu in such a hurry? Do you perhaps know something?" Zhuo Bufan sneered.

“Young Master Chu, there’s no need to worry. We’ll know whether it’s true or false once we see it!” Ouyang Ke said, already secretly giving the Dragon God a signal.

The giant snake charged toward the nearest coffin, and with its strength, it was sure to knock people over as soon as it touched it.

Although judging from its location, this shouldn't be the coffin of the first Emei patriarch, Master Yueying, Chu Luren still roared "You dare!" and then his figure blurred as he stood in front of the giant snake, using one hand to attack the snake's left eye with "Six Qi Finger" and the other hand to block the snake's mouth with a Great Abyss Fist...

hiss--

The giant snake cried out in pain, and Chu Luren was knocked back several steps, but he still managed to hold the snake down. Moreover... blood was gushing from the snake's right eye...

"Coo coo!" Little Red chirped triumphantly.

Snakes don't have eyelids, but they can be seen when they shed their skin; their eyes also have a layer of transparent, soft scales.

However, while his left eye blocked the remote finger force of the Six Qi Finger, his right eye failed to block Xiao Hong's real grab!

Chapter 418 Extinction

When Chu Luren made his move, Xiao Hong on his shoulder was also infused with a "warding off evil true energy" by Chu Luren!

Xiao Hong's body structure and meridian structure are completely different from those of humans, so she cannot retain human true qi. However, she can exert the effects of true qi within the time limit she can retain it.

Therefore, the side effects of the "Evil-Repelling True Qi" did not appear, but Xiao Hong did unleash the speed of the "Evil-Repelling True Qi"...

Like an arrow released from a bow, it shot towards the snake's right eye with lightning speed!

The way snakes' scales, muscles, and even internal organs exist inherently restrains internal martial arts, so Chu Luren's Six Qi Finger technique failed to achieve its goal.

But everything in the universe has its counterpart, and this little red thing's sharp claws and beak are specifically designed to break open snake skin and cut open snake belly!

A flash of red light, so fast that everyone present could barely react...

"Cuckoo!"

It was only when Little Red sang triumphantly and hovered above the snake's head that it had time to react and scream in agony.

"You!" Ouyang Ke felt a pang of heartache and pain upon seeing this.

However, many people were blinded by greed, and Chu Luren was not able to intimidate them all. Some people still took a chance and tried to sneak towards the coffin from other directions.

Some even took the opportunity to ambush the "in the way" Chu Lu people!

Moreover, in such situations, one bold person can incite a group of greedy people, and a group of exceptionally greedy people can even tempt those who are not so greedy to have such thoughts...

But just then, a series of mechanical sounds rang out, and nine dazzlingly bright openings suddenly appeared on the surrounding rock walls. Inside, countless figures could be seen, with the leader of the group in the center being an old nun holding a gleaming sword.

"Who dares to trespass on our forbidden grounds?" a younger voice shouted.

Before anyone could answer, the leading old nun said in a deep voice, "Trespassing on sacred ground is a crime punishable by death. Why ask about their origins?"

"Wait! Abbess Miejue, an old friend from Mount Wutai is here to visit..." Shenshan saw that Emei was in a very advantageous position, and there were probably many traps in this place. It would be too unfair to be killed directly. So he quickly revealed his identity.

However, Abbess Miejue merely snorted coldly and said, "In the Holy Land, we don't talk about personal relationships!"

"Abbess Miejue, did you receive my letter?" Chu Luren shouted deliberately.

This wasn't a pretense of friendship; after arriving at Emei, Chu Luren secretly wrote to Emei, saying that the treasure map pointed to a place close to the back of Emei Mountain, urging Emei to take precautions—after all, Chu Luren didn't know where the tomb of the founder of Emei was, but Emei itself certainly did.

Chu Luren was puzzled because he hadn't seen anyone from Emei before.

It now seems that Emei has another passage, waiting for its prey on the other side!

Chu Luren also directly sensed the nature of the old nun who had exterminated. If it were anyone else, according to normal thinking, they would definitely have blocked everyone to prevent the ancestral tomb from being disturbed, and also leave room for maneuver.

As for any treasure or not, what difference would it make if Emei took the hit head-on?

But did they intend to wipe out the newcomers in the ancestral tomb? That's a unique way of establishing their authority…

Hearing Chu Luren's words, Miejue snorted coldly again: "Hmph, since Chu Taisui guessed that it might be the location of our sect's forbidden area, why did you come? With the ancestor above, this humble nun will not forgive you!"

Chu Luren: ? ? ?

Murong Jiu, standing to the side, let out a "KU" sound and unfolded her fan, clearly chuckling to herself...

Chu Luren finally understood why Yu Lianzhou was unwilling to deal with the old nun Miejue.

"Disciples, heed my command! Pay homage to our Ancestral Master! Anyone who enters the Holy Land will be killed without mercy!" Miejue coldly ordered.

A series of clanging sounds of sharp blades being drawn were heard, and eight long sword formations surged out from the eight cave entrances on both sides of the Extinction Gate.

“Master…someone did indeed deliver a message earlier…”

"shut up!"

Interspersed among them were indeed some faint sounds of conversation.

This is the main base of Emei. It is easy to send out hundreds of sword-wielding disciples. Moreover, these eight long dragons are moving around the ancestral master's coffin in a specific direction. At the same time, there are repeated sounds of mechanisms being launched around them!

Clearly, the old nun's words about "paying homage to the ancestral master" were not merely empty words, but rather an implication that they should avoid the trap...

The Emei disciples knew where they wouldn't be attacked by traps.

Although there were many experts present, most of them were only second or third-rate. They would have a better chance of winning against Emei disciples in a one-on-one fight. However, at this moment, the Emei disciples were coordinating with each other using sword formations, and traps and hidden weapons were being launched from all around them from time to time!

While dodging traps and hidden weapons, a dozen frost-covered swords suddenly appeared, taking turns to stab at them, and blood was about to spill on the spot.

Chu Luren and Murong Jiu weren't taking it too seriously at the moment. The Emei disciples didn't dare to cause them much trouble, and Chu Luren also wanted to teach the others a lesson.

Having just repelled a wave of attacks and deflected hidden weapons with his fan, Ouyang Ke said in a deep voice, "Young Master Chu, it seems that Emei doesn't appreciate your kindness. Let's fight our way out first!"

Retreat is out of the question. They came in from behind and know how rugged and difficult the terrain is. If they are blocked at the back by the Emei Sect, their situation won't be good either.

Ouyang Ke steeled his resolve and advised the Dragon God not to capture the bird yet, but to charge directly at the Extinction Point!

The Dragon God, having lost an eye, was initially enraged and completely disobeyed Ouyang Ke's commands. However, a group of Emei disciples slashed at it wildly, managing to shatter some of its scales without actually injuring it. This only further enraged the Dragon God and successfully drew away some of its hatred.

Ouyang Ke leaped onto the top of the Dragon God's head, and the Dragon God stood upright like a snake, charging directly towards the extinction above!

"How dare you, you beast?" Miejue scoffed and brandished her sword, unleashing a dazzling burst of light.

The sword energy was enormous, at least five or six meters long... and also five or six meters wide!

Judging solely from the scale of the sword energy, this move of Annihilation reminded Chu Luren of the Flaming Blade Energy of Kumārajīva back then.

However, Chu Luren also knew that the legendary Yitian Sword was a treasure that could greatly enhance sword energy, so this was not entirely due to the personal strength of Miejue!

Sweeping left and right by the Heaven-Slaying Sword Qi, the Dragon God, already blind in one eye, had its scales shattered and was about to splatter blood, but it charged towards Extinction in even greater rage...

Just then, Zhuo Bufan, who had been slacking off and not taking things seriously, suddenly erupted, instantly repelling the Emei sword formation that was attacking him. He then threw his sword and shouted, "Hey!"

Then, the sword suddenly appeared in front of him, hovering above his head with his hand gestures, its blade pointing in the direction of Extinction. The sword light also flashed, causing everyone around to gasp in surprise.

"Hmph!" Zhuo Bufan shouted again.

His longsword, like a whirlwind, trailed a long beam of light as it charged towards Extinction, its momentum as powerful as a rainbow and its speed as swift as a little red...

Chapter 419 A Desperate Gamble

When Abbess Miejue saw the sword light suddenly appear and fly towards her from dozens of feet away, she was also startled and quickly drew her sword to block it!

However, Zhuo Bufan's "flying sword" move was already close to the power of a peerless master, and it was undoubtedly an explosive strike after a peerless master had accumulated power.

With a loud clang of clashing blades, the sword that Miejue had held in front of her was deflected, and the Yitian Sword involuntarily slipped from her hand. Zhuo Bufan's "flying sword" was also blocked and its force was dissipated, but it still left a bloody mark on his arm!

At this moment, Ouyang Ke seized the opportunity and was about to ride the Dragon God to attack. Although there was a young female disciple beside Miejue, she drew her sword to meet the Dragon God, trying to buy time for her master. However, her strength was negligible in front of the giant serpent.

In a different setting, Ouyang Ke might have spared her while flirting with her, perhaps even taking the opportunity to abduct her, given her beautiful and elegant appearance. But with Miejue right behind him, Ouyang Ke couldn't afford to think about such things!

Just as the Dragon God had shattered her longsword and was about to crush the Emei female disciple with a single forward tremor...

goo goo-

Suddenly, a loud bird call rang out, but it wasn't Little Red calling; it was Chu Luren!

Seeing the chaos in the tomb, Chu Luren was worried that the coffin of the Emei Patriarch might be damaged, and he would have a hard time explaining it to Master Zhang. So he stepped forward and climbed onto a protruding rock pillar on the top of the cave, and used all his strength to unleash the "Nine Netherworld Sound Soul Technique".

This time, it's not just about making the sounds of passersby; it's about truly unleashing the offensive side of sonic power!
