Chapter 142 Reap the consequences

Chapter 142 Reap the consequences
Tianji Layman founded Tianji Valley hundreds of years ago...

After hundreds of years of vicissitudes, the surrounding terrain has not changed, and the buildings in the valley are surprisingly all intact.

Chu Qing discovered that the reason for this was that all the buildings in the valley were built with stone.

It can withstand the erosion of wind and rain and the wear and tear of time.

It is precisely for this reason that the formation that Tianji Jushi has set up for hundreds of years is still effective today.

What made Chu Qing embarrassed was that he originally wanted to burn down the Tianji Tower, so that the danger of Huangquan Powder would be resolved immediately.

But now, if the Tianji Tower is also made entirely of stone, how should the fire be burned?
In addition, traces of mechanisms can be seen everywhere between pavilions and buildings.

These mechanisms are not that powerful, just as Sang Qing said.

It doesn't kill anyone, at most it just injures them.

If Chu Qing just wanted to crack it, he would be powerless because he doesn't know how to use mechanical devices.

And because Sang Qing had not returned for a long time, the Tomb Prince became alert, and now the defenses in the valley are no longer the same as what Sang Qing said.

Fortunately, Chu Qing was an expert in martial arts and knew how to enter and exit. Even though this group of people were running around everywhere, they couldn't find a single hair of his.

He stumbled along the way, avoiding the traps, hiding from the disciples of the Tianxie Cult, and finally arrived in front of the Tianji Tower.

“This building seemed huge from a distance before, but now it’s even more shocking when I see it up close.

"Mr. Tianji built this building by himself, and it has survived for hundreds of years. It's really amazing!"

Chu Qing did not rush forward, as this was already the most dangerous place in the entire Tianji Valley.

He bypassed the main gate and flashed to the side wall of Tianji Tower. Following the wall forward, he came to the mountain wall.

The mountain walls surrounding Tianji Valley are very peculiar, wide at the bottom and narrow at the top, forming a huge arc.

The roof of Tianji Tower is almost level with the top of the mountain wall.

You can see how high this building is.

Chu Qing stretched his head to look, and suddenly exerted force with his feet. He rose up like a bat, spreading his arms, and quickly ascended like a wisp of green smoke.

This light leap was more than ten feet. He stepped on the air and used the power of the Golden Goose Technique to rise another ten feet.

Flying over twenty feet in one breath was something Chu Qing would never have been able to do before he acquired the Feixu Qingyan skill.

A number like more than twenty zhang may not sound like a big deal, but you have to know that one zhang is 3.3 meters, and ten zhang is 33 meters. He jumped in the air with the help of the force and rose to a height of at least 66 meters.

Assuming the building is three meters high, he could have jumped directly to the twenty-second floor with this jump, which is shocking in modern society!
However, there is still some distance from the top of Tianji Tower.

He lightly stepped on the wall for leverage, and his body rose again, finally landing steadily on the roof of Tianji Tower.

Standing here and looking down, you can have a panoramic view of the entire Tianji Valley.

The buildings downstairs seemed quite small, but he could see the layout of them and the movements of the Tianxie Cult disciples moving around in them.

Looking further away, he could not see the scene outside the gate of Tianji Valley due to the terrain.

"I don't know what the situation is like over there with Wen Fusheng. Time is running out, and we need to enter the Tianji Tower as soon as possible."

But the roof under my feet was paved with stones and there was no gap at all.

He could have smashed it, but doing so would inevitably alert the disciples of the Zhongtian Cult.

Chu Qing groped for a while and came to the roof of Tianji Tower, facing the gate of Tianji Valley.

He had observed from downstairs before that there was a window at this location. He swayed and fell from the roof. He stretched his arms to the top and hung himself in the air. Sure enough, he saw that the window was closed.

He immediately stepped on the window and exerted a little force.

He kicked the entire window down with one kick.

Chu Qing's heart tightened, and as he loosened his grip, his body rolled again, like green smoke rolling into the inside of the window.

Looking down, I found that the upper floor of the Tianji Building was completely empty, with only metal bars crisscrossing horizontally and vertically to support the roof.

The window was about to fall onto a horizontal bar, Chu Qing quickly reached out and turned the Mingyu Sutra.

The window suddenly slowed down, and then flew towards Chu Qing's palm, where Chu Qing caught it.

After taking a closer look, he immediately grinned.

This looks like a window, but it's just for show.

There is no gap in the middle and no mechanisms on the left and right. It is the decoration made by Tianji layman for Tianji Tower.

“No wonder when one foot fell, it wasn’t the window that opened, but the entire window fell down.”

He climbed onto the horizontal bar with one hand, using it as leverage to fly up, and arrived in front of the window. He placed his legs on the left and right bars to stabilize his body, and then put the window back on to avoid leaving any flaws.

After doing this, he flew down.

This place is about five or six feet away from the lower level.

He stepped on tiptoe and found a thick layer of dust under his feet, but it was not stirred up by his arrival.

My body is like floating cotton, not startled by a speck of dust.

There were footprints on the dust, but not many.

Chu Qing thought in his heart:

“The people from the Tianxie Cult should have come to check it out, and they lost interest when they saw this scene.

"I guess they couldn't imagine that someone could sneak in from the rooftop..."

Thinking of this, he turned his eyes and found the entrance to the lower level.

It was a stone staircase... He walked down it, and there was no door at the end.

To be precise, there should be a wooden door here.

However, the gate had long since decayed, leaving only some remaining traces.

After crossing this room, a large floor appeared in front of Chu Qing.

It was filled with various tables, which seemed to be used to place items...but now the items had long been moved away, leaving only empty tables, which looked extremely lonely.

But looking at the number of these platforms, Chu Qing couldn't help but grin in his heart.

"How much stuff did Tianji Jushi plunder in the past? Could this guy be the reincarnation of a treasure-hunting rat?
"He took someone else's things, and even though he knew who the original owner was, he didn't return them, but instead openly claimed them as his own.

"It's hard to say that such a virtue is good...it's only natural that he ended up like that."

Chu Qing sighed in his heart.

It seems that Tianji Jushi has not done any serious evil.

But take the Earth Scroll of the Bu Yi Heavenly Book for example. It is known to everyone in the martial arts world and it is the foundation of the Tai Yi Sect.

It was accidentally lost...

The Taiyi Sect declined because of this.

If Tianji Jushi had obtained the Earth Scroll and practiced it himself, then logically speaking, the Taiyi Sect would not have been defeated. It was a big taboo in the martial arts world for him to rashly practice someone else's unique skills.

You should go to Taiyi Gate and apologize, and then let others decide how to deal with you.

But he just collected it...that's just disgusting.

And apart from Taiyi Sect’s Bu Yi Heavenly Book, who knows what else he got?

How did he get it?
How many of these things are life-saving items or family heirlooms?
How many people died because of this?

After a hundred years of vicissitudes, some things cannot be traced back to the past, but although this Tianji layman has talent, he is definitely not a good person.

These thoughts flashed through his mind. There was no one on this floor, and Chu Qing arrived at the entrance to the next floor in a flash.

Not far down, they had already crossed a thick partition. A few feet below, they saw the disciples of the Tianxie Cult sitting scattered around, chatting casually.

Chu Qing listened to two sentences, but didn't see any point.

But he soon noticed that on one side of the wall, there were three people in black robes sitting cross-legged in a fan shape around the wall.

There was a wrench on the wall, obviously a mechanism.

"Is this what Sang Qing was talking about... the puppet corpse?"

Chu Qing listened carefully and found that the three people had no breathing or heartbeat.

Now they are just sitting there quietly, just like three dead people.

“The mechanism that Sang Qing mentioned should be that… I wanted to burn down the Tianji Tower and get rid of it once and for all.

“But now it seems that it is impossible to burn it.

"I can't crack the mechanism, but I can destroy it... or..."

Thinking of this, Chu Qing suddenly had an idea.

At the same time, a carrier pigeon flew in from outside the valley and flapped its wings into the Tianji Tower.

It was taken by a disciple of the Tianxie Cult.

After opening the letter, the cult disciple's face changed after just one glance:
"They are here, pass the order and have everyone in Tianji Valley withdraw.

"Half of them will come here to meet us, and the other half will go underground to guard the underground mechanism and the prince."

Immediately, a disciple of the Tianxie Cult hurried down the stairs.

He walked to the gate of Tianji Tower, used his finger as a whistle, and blew it hard.

This voice seemed to be infused with internal energy, and the sound instantly spread throughout the Tianji Valley.

The next moment, the Tianxie Cult disciples scattered throughout the valley gathered back and assembled in front of the Tianji Tower. After everyone had gathered, they rushed into the Tianji Tower.

Chu Qing didn't know how they were going to split their troops into two groups.

But this is the best opportunity.

He immediately stepped on the stairs and jumped down from the stairs like a puff of green smoke. With his arms spread out, he slid to the front of the mechanism under the disbelieving eyes of a few Tianxie Sect disciples who happened to look up.

As soon as I reached out my hand, I heard a snap!

The mechanism had already been pulled down by Chu Qing.

bang bang bang!
bang bang bang!
The ground beneath my feet suddenly shook, and I heard the unbelievable voice of the Tianxie Cult disciples in my ears:
"what happened?"

"Oh no, the Yellow Springs are falling..."

"Run away..."

But it was too late.

They spent a long time setting up this mechanism, and tried everything over and over again several times.

As long as this mechanism is set in motion, Huangquan Powder will instantly spread to every corner of the first floor.

Almost all of the Tianxie Cult disciples who had just entered and had not yet split into two groups were hit...

So much so that the exclamations subsided in just a short moment.

It’s not that I don’t want to scream, but I can’t move and I’m speechless.

"You reap what you sow. There is no better way."

Chu Qing felt amused. If there was anything wrong with it, it was that he failed to take advantage of this opportunity to find the Soul Capture Guard.

This person's [Netherworld Rebirth Art] is a problem... Chu Qing doesn't want to be stared at for no reason.

However, when Huangquan Powder was used in this way, it was expected that the gang of martial arts figures who came to Tianji Valley, after seeing this scene, would not rush to take Huangquan Powder and poison themselves.

With this in mind, he changed his steps and wanted to escape.

As a killer, he rarely has the intention to confront others head-on.

Now that the problem of Huangquan Powder has been solved, after Wen Fusheng and others enter the valley, the Tianxie Cult will have no choice but to fight this group of gangsters head-on.

With such an advantage, why would Chu Qing fight with these people in advance?
The best strategy is to blend in with the crowd and launch a surprise attack on them.

But before he could spread his body and escape, the three puppet corpses stood up with a whoosh.

In an instant, six arms came out at the same time, locking the energy from all directions. Under the coverage of fists and palms, there was no place to escape in heaven and earth.

The obscure true energy contained in the fists and palms was exactly the same as what Chu Qing felt from Dong Xingzhi that day.

"They also practiced the so-called 'Nine Mysterious Divine Art'. Is this the final outcome of practicing that martial art?"

As the thought flashed through his mind, the internal energy of the Mingyu Sutra suddenly rose up.

The opponent used his fists and feet to surround Chu Qing, trying to turn himself into a cage to keep him from breaking free.

Their moves were completely different from those used by Dong Xingzhi at that time, and there were no flaws in their moves.

If that's the case, then just break out of the cage and use force to defeat cleverness.

As his internal energy turned, Chu Qing's fists were instantly covered with frost. As his fists moved, fist shadows were everywhere in an instant.

It turned out to be the ultimate move in the Tianshuang Fist - Aoxue Lingshuang!
This move has four styles, namely Standing Proudly on the Lone Peak, Searching for Plum Blossoms on the Snowy Ridge, Soaring Clouds and Reflections on the Frosty River.

The force of the fist enveloped an area of ​​five meters, and cold air surged.

When Chu Qing used the Nine-Layered Jade Sutra, its power was even more terrifying.

In an instant, the fist had collided with the three puppet corpses nearby... Even though they were dead, their internal strength was still there, and the internal strength of each puppet corpse was far beyond that of ordinary people.

Now, when his fists and feet touched Chu Qing's fist, his whole body was not frozen instantly, but the frost climbed up from his hands.

But they didn't stop their moves and even wanted to press forward.

But Chu Qing's move was too powerful, and the punches were dense and endless.

Every time they pressed forward, the frozen part broke a little, starting with the fist, and then the body gradually broke apart, all the way to the forearm, and finally it was unable to resist Chu Qing's Nine-Layer Mingyu Sutra power.

Three figures flew backwards.

The body was still in mid-air, but the frost had already covered the entire body...

They were about to be beaten to pieces by Chu Qing's punches all over their bodies.

The Tianxie cult disciples nearby finally reacted.

Then two figures flashed and appeared on Chu Qing's left and right.

Both of them struck out at the same time.

The palm of my hand was as red as blood and the stench was overwhelming!
See the Blood-Transforming Divine Palm again!!
Chu Qing's face darkened. He was unwilling to confront the Blood-Transforming Divine Palm head-on. His Mingyu Sutra naturally spun, and he turned his body, just in time to avoid the gap between the palms of the two Tianxie Cult disciples.

Taking advantage of the situation and using internal force, the person on the left hit the chest and abdomen of the person on the right with his palm, and the person on the right retaliated by hitting the person on the left on the shoulder.

The two men screamed at the same time, and in an instant their flesh and blood withered at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Immediately afterwards, he was knocked away by the opponent's palm power.

The blood from deep inside his body had frozen into a layer of blood-red ice before it even hit the ground.

But after this delay, the three puppet corpses had already fallen to the ground, and there was a loud crashing sound of them breaking.

The three puppet corpses were shattered on the spot!
