Chapter 128 The killing order reappears!
Chapter 128 The killing order reappears!
There is an open area in front of me, and the stone forest is still behind me.
Going further ahead, the environment is still dark.
Si Ye held a torch in his hand, led the way, and paid attention to the surrounding environment.
Chu Qing and his group hurried on their way, and after walking a short distance, they found a cave entrance that was completely shaded by trees.
Si Ye was about to move forward, but Chu Qing suddenly pressed his shoulder:
"Wait, there's someone!"
Si Ye's heart tightened. How could there be someone here?
Even those of them who lived in Luochen Villa for so long had no idea that there was such a place at the foot of the mountain.
Who could have arrived here ahead of them?
What Chu Qing had said to him before suddenly came to his mind. The reason they were able to find this place was because someone kidnapped Wenrou and Tie Chuqing.
If there is someone here now, isn’t it that person?
Chu Qing walked past Si Ye, took a step forward, gently pushed aside the leaves, and looked over with a slightly frown.
In the dim night, they could see that they were now in a cave halfway up the mountain.
Two or three feet below is a winding path leading to an unknown place.
But there was no one on the road.
After a moment of hesitation, Chu Qing said to the people behind him:
"Wait a moment, I'll go take a look."
"Sir, I'll go."
Si Ye spoke quickly.
Along the way, he admired Chu Qing more and more, and felt that it was natural for the owner of the manor to entrust Chu Qing with such an important task.
The situation here is unclear, so Chu Qing naturally cannot take the risk himself.
Chu Qing did not agree, but just shook his head and asked them to wait here.
Immediately afterwards, his body flashed and he jumped out of the cave. He stepped lightly and landed on the ground without a sound.
He glanced around the secluded path and then walked forward along the road.
It is called a road, but in fact it is a stone path.
There are no weeds on the stone, it is as natural as a road.
Not long after following this road, a figure appeared in front of Chu Qing.
This scene made Chu Qing's pupils shrink suddenly.
Before he met this person, he had never noticed any trace of it.
It was as if he was just a phantom that appeared here out of thin air.
It could collapse at any time.
The man was dressed in rags and was exactly the old beggar he had seen before.
He was sitting at the end of the road, where there was a protruding hill.
He just didn't sit properly, with one leg propped up and the other hanging naturally, holding a chicken leg in his hand. There were two notches on the chicken leg, obviously he had taken two bites of it.
But at this moment he just held the chicken leg, looking quietly into the distance, without saying a word or moving, like a statue.
Chu Qing came behind him and followed his gaze.
I saw that the forest was deep and the leaves were yellow. In the shade of the trees, between the mountain walls on both sides, there stood a door.
A very big door!
"What is that place?"
Chu Qing's eyes fell on the door and he slowly asked.
The old beggar's expression changed and he chuckled:
"The four seasons conceal the secrets of the sky, and the changes take in the empty valley.
“That is the Tianji Valley that has been hidden under the noses of the Wen family. They have been searching for it for hundreds of years but still can’t find it.
"Tianji layman has made full use of the changes in nature, and his magical skills are truly enviable.
"It's so close yet it seems so far away. I can't help but want to applaud."
"Who is the senior?"
Chu Qing asked again.
"Don't tell you."
The old beggar snorted, picked up the chicken leg and took a bite.
Chu Qing turned his eyes to the old beggar and said calmly:
"Senior, did you bring me here just to keep it to yourself?"
"It's great to be young."
The old beggar heard Chu Qing say this and suddenly sighed:
“Young men are chivalrous and can do whatever they want.
“As people get older, they become more cautious and less carefree about some things.
"They say the world is free and easy... free and easy bullshit!
“The older you get, the less courageous you become.
"Boy, what if I told you that the Tianji Valley has been emptied out long ago, and only numerous traps and conspiracy layouts are left inside.
“Someone wants to use this as a blood sacrifice to commit a tragedy rarely seen in the martial arts world in hundreds of years.
"What do you think?"
"Go into the valley with a knife and kill him until the blood flows like a river?"
"Okay, have fun!"
The old beggar laughed loudly upon hearing this, but after laughing, he sighed:
“But… it’s… difficult.
"Although you are a skilled martial artist, I'm afraid you have few rivals among your peers.
"But if you underestimate everyone in the world and treat the masters of the world with disrespect, you will still suffer a great loss."
"Since it is difficult for me to do it alone, why not spread the news of this incident to the world, attract the heroes to the valley, and kill the treacherous villains?"
“But people in this world are ignorant and cannot stick to their original intentions.
"The more you try to hold onto loose sand, the more it leaks out."
The old beggar sighed:
"What's more, the intention of using the Heavenly Secret Order to cause trouble was to do so. If the martial arts masters did not come here, how could they plan that shocking bloodbath?
"Are you worried that the blood shed here is not enough?"
Chu Qing smiled:
"Since this doesn't work and that doesn't work, why not ask the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors to help and raze this place to the ground in one fell swoop?"
The old beggar was stunned for a moment, then suddenly nodded:
“This is indeed a solution that can solve the current crisis.
"However, if this method is implemented, I don't know how much blood will be shed and how many people will die."
"What's the meaning of this statement?"
Chu Qing asked sincerely this time, why did people bleed and die when the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors took action?
The old beggar didn't say anything, but just stared at Tianji Valley quietly, as if he was looking at a huge problem.
Chu Qing was silent for a moment.
Suddenly asked:
"What is hidden in this Tianji Valley? Who are they you are talking about?
"Since he is planning a bloody murder, he must have a purpose... What is this purpose?"
The old beggar smacked his lips and took a big bite of the chicken leg in his hand:
"Have you ever heard of the Nine Treasures of Heaven and Earth?"
Chu Qing narrowed his eyes slightly:
"Are you going to tell me that one of the Nine Treasures of Heaven and Earth is hidden here?
"Since when did the Nine Treasures of Heaven and Earth become so worthless?"
There are already two in Nanling.
Could it be that the entire world is now filled with the Nine Treasures of Heaven and Earth?
"Hahaha."
The old beggar couldn't help laughing when he heard this, then he sighed and said:
“It’s ridiculous, but it’s the way it is.
"Back then, Tianji collected rare treasures from all over the world...
“The Nine Treasures of Heaven and Earth are the most precious treasures in the world, how can Master Tianji ignore them?
"Don't even mention him. Even during the heyday of the Daqian Dynasty, seven items were collected."
Chu Qing knew about this.
Pei Wuji pretended to be Jiang Shendao at that time and told Chu Qing this story.
It seems to be saying that the Daqian Dynasty collected the nine treasures of heaven and earth in order to ensure the eternal stability of the dynasty.
But after collecting seven items, the Daqian Dynasty suddenly fell apart overnight.
And according to the Weeping God Iron, the Nine Treasures of Heaven and Earth do have their own special abilities.
However, such a magical object is not indestructible.
At least the Chaos God Sword was broken into pieces by Chu Qing and no longer existed.
Chu Qing's mind was turning as he asked:
"Which one is hidden in Tianji Valley?"
The old beggar glanced at Chu Qing and grinned:
"Demon Clothes!"
"What is that? A piece of clothing?"
Chu Qing frowned, although the legend of the Nine Treasures of Heaven and Earth existed, not everyone knew about it.
As far as Chu Qing was concerned, the first time he heard the legend of the Nine Treasures of Heaven and Earth was from Pei Wuji. How could he know what this Heavenly Demon Clothes was now?
“It’s really a piece of clothing…
“But according to rumors, this is the clothing that the immortals and demons once wore.
"Someone once offered this robe as a sacrifice, hoping to learn from the immortals, but in the end he got nothing.
"This garment is impervious to water, fire, and swords and spears. It is as light and thin as a gauze and can be worn by anyone with any body shape. Once put on, it will fit the body shape perfectly."
Chu Qing listened and exclaimed in admiration.
From the description, this dress is indeed a good thing.
Once you get one and put it on, it's like you've mastered some magical skills to protect your body.
It is also as light and thin as gauze, and fits any body shape perfectly.
It is indeed worthy of being the clothes worn by immortals and demons in the legend.
The old beggar continued:
“But these are not the most surprising.
“The most amazing thing is… even if an ordinary person puts it on, he will become a master in one fell swoop.
"If a master wears it, it will be like a god or devil descending to the world, invincible!"
When Chu Qing heard this, he saw the old beggar staring at him and said:
"I've almost talked about the good points, should I talk about the bad points?"
"This thing draws blood."
The old beggar curled his lips, seeming to feel bored:
“If ordinary people put it on, they would turn into dry bones in a moment.
"If an expert puts it on, it can only last for an hour or two at most, and then it will end up like this...
“Also, this garment can be worn but not taken off.
"If you take off, you will die!"
"…Then what is the use of this thing?"
"I use it when I'm desperate..."
The old beggar smiled:
“If there is no way out, the Heavenly Demon Robe will become my greatest support.
“Even if I die, I can destroy all my enemies.
“However, if this garment does not absorb blood for a long time, it will lose its effectiveness.
“It needs to be soaked in human blood, especially the blood of an expert.
“The more blood, the better, the stronger the master, the better!
"Wait until the magic robe is covered in blood and dances gracefully.
"That will be the day when this garment will reappear in the world."
This statement solved Chu Qing's doubts.
The old beggar had said before that all the things hidden by Master Tianji in Tianji Valley had been taken away.
But he also said that one of the Nine Treasures of Heaven and Earth was left here.
So, this was intentional.
They wanted to borrow the blood of the master to make this dress reappear in the world.
However, Chu Qing still didn't understand:
“Even if clothes like this reappear, what can we do?
"Although it is incredibly powerful, it costs one's life..."
The old beggar glanced at Chu Qing:
"Have you ever heard of a martial art called [Blood Demon Sutra]?"
"..."
I've actually heard of this.
At this moment, he suddenly remembered that Chu Yan, who had competed with him with this martial art, had once absorbed all of Gu Qianqiu's energy and blood.
"They want to give the Heavenly Demon Robe to someone who has practiced the Blood Demon Sutra?
"By absorbing the blood of others to nourish the Heavenly Demon Cloth?"
Chu Qing narrowed his eyes slightly.
The old beggar spread his hands:
“Now that this problem is here, what are you going to do?
“The plan of Tianji Ling is an open plan.
“Even if you spread the news about this place, no one will believe it… They would rather believe that you wanted to take all the treasures of Tianji Jushi by yourself.
“If you ignore it, wait for those people to spread the news.
“Of those who enter Tianji Valley, only one in ten can survive.
"If it were you, how would you deal with it?"
"...You are asking the blind for advice."
Chu Qing said calmly:
"I'm just a commoner. I'm good at killing people, but as for breaking the situation... you should look for other people."
"kill……"
The old beggar suddenly smiled, patted his butt and stood up.
He threw the chicken bones aside and looked at Chu Qing:
"Since you are good at killing people...
"How about you help me kill a few people?"
Chu Qing raised his eyebrows:
"Kill who?"
The old beggar pointed his finger:
“There are three masters of the Tianxie Cult hiding in Tianji Valley.
“Two guards and one king respectively.
"The Soul-Capturing Guard is Shi Ye, and the Soul-Chasing Guard is Sang Qing.
“And… the tomb lord’s funeral cold voice.
"If you can kill these three people, I, the old man, will give you a generous gift."
Chu Qing narrowed his eyes slightly, and the system prompt came as expected.
[Triggering Commission: Killing Order! (Kill two guards and one king)]
【Do you want to receive it? 】
Chu Qing's pupils suddenly contracted.
I saw the killing order again...
The last time, all the invading enemies were killed in Tianwu City, including the entire Wanye Valley, and then the killing order was triggered.
However, this time, there were only two guards and one king of the Tianxie Cult, and the task of killing was directly popped up?
Are these three people...difficult to kill?
Chu Qing looked at the old beggar silently:
“This doesn’t seem to be an easy thing to do.”
“It’s certainly not easy.”
The old beggar said calmly:
"When I was a Soul-Capture Guardian, I think the martial arts I practiced was something like [The Secret of Rebirth in the Netherworld].
“This method is extremely evil and bizarre, and it is said that it can help people attain rebirth in a single thought.
“One glance can determine life or death!
“So, when fighting this person, you must not look him in the eye.
“Although it’s possible that he won’t be able to keep a close eye on you, it’s always better to be careful.
"As for Soul Chaser Sang Qing...
"This person has excellent Qinggong. Among the magic sect's martial arts, there is a technique called [Hundred Ghosts Wandering]. His movements are erratic, like a ghost, and his movements are silent.
"Add to that his [Thirteen Needles of Ghostly Crying and God Howling]..."
At this point, the old beggar shook his head, seeming to be quite frightened.
After a pause, he said:
“This guy is so difficult to deal with.
"We should take the initiative against him, otherwise we will be controlled by him.
“Fortunately, these two are human beings…
“Anyone can be killed.
"As long as you can kill them, you can try to deal with the Tomb Prince, Zang Hansheng!"
"The sound of burial..."
Chu Qing tilted his head and looked at the old beggar:
"What does this person have to say?"
“Two guards and one king.
“In fact, it is two guards protecting one king.
“Shi Ye and Sang Qing are both Zang Hansheng’s guards.
"Even I don't know what this Tomb Prince is capable of."
The old beggar sighed:
“There are twelve holy kings in the Tianxie Cult, and he is one of them.
“But these princes are too mysterious, and what I know now is just the tip of the iceberg.
"So, if you want to kill him, you have to rely on your own abilities."
"Now there is one last question."
Chu Qing looked at the old beggar with a slightly cold look in his eyes:
"I don't even know your identity, why should I help you kill someone?"
