Just as Lu Qing was sorting himself out, in a majestic building in the holy city.
Many powerful figures are gathered together.
Among them, several corpses were neatly laid out, covered with white silk.
"Master Qiu, why did you summon us here so late at night?"
A tall man with a burly build and arms down to his knees asked in a deep voice.
"Everyone, please look at these corpses."
Sect Leader Qiu waved his sleeves lightly, and a strong wind emerged, blowing away the white silk covering the corpses, revealing their full appearance.
When they saw the appearance of the corpses clearly, everyone was shocked.
Because those corpses were not complete.
Not only were their heads chopped off, but three of them also had large holes in their hearts.
The last one was even more tragic. The whole person was split into two halves. It was extremely tragic.
However, those present here are all famous martial arts masters in Zhongzhou, and they have seen all kinds of scenes.
Although they were shocked by the tragic state of the corpses, they soon regained their composure.
"Master Qiu, who are these corpses, and what do they have to do with why you called us here this time?"
The tall man from before continued to ask.
"Do you think there is anything special about these corpses?" said Sect Leader Qiu.
"The only special thing about these corpses is that they died tragically. What else is special about them?"
Everyone continued to look at the corpses.
But soon, everyone discovered that these corpses were indeed different from the others. They were all masters of the Innate Realm.
Moreover, his cultivation level during his lifetime was not necessarily weaker than those present here.
All of a sudden, everyone's expressions became serious.
All of a sudden, four corpses of powerful innate realm masters appeared, and they had no impression of what these people looked like.
There is too much information revealed in this.
However, this was not the end. Seeing that everyone's faces had become serious, Sect Leader Qiu pointed at one of the corpses.
"Take another look at the tattoo on this corpse. Is there anything special about it?"
"Tattoo?"
Everyone looked towards the corpse.
After seeing the tattoo that Sect Leader Qiu mentioned, some people felt confused, but others felt a sense of familiarity.
The person who felt familiar, after a while of deep thought, suddenly felt a shock all over his body and his eyes suddenly widened.
"This tattoo, could it be..."
"It seems that Senior Yue has recognized the origin of this tattoo."
Upon seeing this, Sect Leader Qiu smiled slightly.
"Yes, this tattoo is indeed very similar to what is recorded in the files of my Guiyuan Sect. However, this is impossible. Wasn't that sect uprooted and completely disappeared long ago?"
Senior Yue said with some disbelief.
"It's obvious that the sect was not completely wiped out back then. There are still remnants alive. After hundreds of years of recuperation, it is now growing stronger again."
Sect Leader Qiu's expression also turned serious.
"Senior Yue, Sect Master Qiu, what are you talking about? What sect is this tattoo related to?"
The tall man listened to the conversation between the two and felt confused. Finally, he couldn't help but speak.
"Wujianlou!"
At this time, an old man with white hair and a youthful face said in a deep voice: "There is no doubt about it. This tattoo is the unique symbol of Wujian Tower more than 300 years ago!"
Obviously, he also recognized the origin of the tattoo.
When these words were spoken, many people were shocked.
"What, Wujianlou?"
"Senior He, are you telling the truth?"
"I remember now. This tattoo looks exactly like the symbol recorded in my sect!"
"But wasn't Wujian Tower destroyed hundreds of years ago?!"
Seeing everyone's shocked expressions, Sect Master Qiu said:
"Everyone, don't doubt it, Brother Fang and I have already checked it out.
The skills these people practiced were quite strange, and were exactly the same as those recorded in our sect's top-secret files.
Therefore, these people are undoubtedly the remnants of Wujian Tower."
“However, according to the records in the archives, Wujian Tower should have been wiped out by all the major sects hundreds of years ago.
Why did they suddenly appear again? Where have they been hiding for hundreds of years?
Also, why did they suddenly die here, and who killed them?"
Someone immediately raised a series of questions.
"Brother Fang and I are also full of doubts about this, which is why we invited all of you here." Sect Leader Qiu said, "I have a feeling that our ancestors might have been tricked back then..."
…
In the holy city, people from all major sects were shocked to find that there were still remnants of Wujian Tower.
On the holy mountain, in an exquisite building, several monks in red robes were gathered together.
"Senior Brother Xuanming, I just received a message from the spy. The operation in Wujian Tower has failed." Xuan said angrily.
"I knew that nothing could be accomplished with just those few pieces of trash!"
A trace of anger appeared on the face of a big monk.
That bunch of rubbish always brags so much about how amazing their assassination skills are.
In the end, he couldn't even handle a young boy or an old man.
They shouldn't have taken in these rubbish in the first place when they came to Xuankong Mountain. They are of no use at all!
“Brother Xuanming, now that the Wujian Tower operation has failed, other sects will probably know soon that the Wujian Tower has not completely disappeared.
What should we do? "
Xuan asked angrily.
Before Xuanming could say anything, the great monk continued:
"Humph, so what if you know, the reappearance of Wujian Tower has nothing to do with us.
Besides, it would be nice to let these crazy people make some noise outside.
As you can see, this time when I came out, it has been too peaceful outside for too long.
We have been living in seclusion in several secret places, and have not been seen for a long time. The world is almost forgetting our majesty.
Even a mere disciple of Tianji Tower dared to disobey the Buddha's orders and speak out against him.
I think we need to let Wujian Tower make some noise and let the outside sects know.
How did the world achieve hundreds of years of peace back then?
Without us, the secret places, to maintain order in the world, how could they have enjoyed hundreds of years of peace and prosperity? "
Xuan Nu didn't say anything else, but a look of approval appeared on his face.
"Amitabha."
At this time, Xuanming, who had been silent and calm all this time, finally spoke:
“Although Xuanyan’s words are not in line with the Buddha’s will, they are not without reason.
You should have felt it this time.
I have lived in seclusion in Xuankong Mountain for hundreds of years and have not appeared in the world for a long time.
This has caused the outside world to lose the enlightenment of Buddhism and the teachings of Buddhist principles.
Now I have lost my respect for Buddha.
Without reverence, there is no order. Without order, ambition and unrest will easily breed.
This is not a good thing but a disaster for people all over the world.
Therefore, for the sake of all people in the world, we, Xuankong Mountain, also need to let the world understand the greatness of Buddhism again. "
"Brother Xuanming is still very knowledgeable about Buddhist principles."
These words convinced Xuan Nu and the others.
"Then, Brother, what should I do next?
All the disciples from Wujian Tower that we brought with us this time have been killed.
That little bastard is still alive and well. If he lives one more day, the other secret places will probably have to laugh at us for one more day."
“It’s just a momentary honor or disgrace. You have practiced Buddhism for so many years, how come you can’t even see through this mental obstacle?
Since the young man was able to survive, it was obvious that his luck had not yet run out. This was God's will.
Since it is God's will, why don't we just go along with it temporarily and let him live a little longer? What's the difficulty?
The most important purpose of our coming out this time is to complete the task assigned by the abbot and seize the opportunity.
As long as I can get that opportunity, I will have the chance to prosper Xuankong Mountain in the next thousand years.
Don't put the cart before the horse and forget your mission for a little hatred."
Xuanming spoke earnestly.
"But Brother Xuanming, the abbot said that the opportunity is in the Holy Mountain, but we have been in the Holy Mountain for so long, and we haven't seen the shadow of the opportunity. When will it appear?"
"Don't be impatient, and be modest." Xuanming closed his eyes and spoke slowly, "I can feel that the opportunity will come soon."
Seeing that Senior Brother Xuanming had entered a state of meditation, Xuan Nu and the others, even though they still had questions in their hearts, did not dare to disturb him any further.
In the next few days, undercurrents surged in the holy city.
It didn't take long for the major sects in Zhongzhou to know about the revival of Wujian Tower.
All of a sudden, the entire Zhongzhou was secretly shaken.
Fortunately, this matter was only known to the top leaders of the major sects and has not caused any turmoil.
But for a moment, the minds of the major sects were in turmoil, and even the atmosphere in the holy city became weird.
There is a feeling that a storm is coming.
But all this has nothing to do with Lu Qing and others.
Ever since the Wujianlou killers were dealt with by Lu Qing and Xiao Li that night, they have never been attacked again.
Even the owner of Tianji Tower never appeared again after taking away the bodies of the Wujian Tower killers, and no one knew what he was busy with.
Therefore, in the past few days, Lu Qing and others stayed leisurely in the small courtyard next to Lin Zhirui.
Every day I practice martial arts, drink tea, and cook some delicious food for fun.
The days passed very pleasantly, and were not affected at all by the atmosphere of the holy city.
"Mr. Lu, look!"
In the small courtyard, Lu Qing was sitting on a stone bench, carving something with a fine carving knife in his hand.
Xiaoyan and Xiaoli sat beside him, waiting obediently.
At this time, Hu Zezhi jumped in front of Lu Qing and turned around a few times.
"Oh, Miss Hu's leg has fully recovered?"
Lu Qing did not stop what he was doing. He looked up at Hu Zezhi and smiled.
"Sister Hu, is your leg okay?"
Xiaoyan's eyes lit up as well.
"Yes, I'm completely cured. I have to thank you, Mr. Lu. If it weren't for the medicine you prescribed, I wouldn't have recovered so quickly." Hu Zezhi said gratefully.
As the saying goes, it takes a hundred days to heal a broken bone.
Hu Zezhi was very clear about how serious his leg injury was.
Now, I have fully recovered in such a short time without any aftereffects.
More importantly, there wasn't even a scar left.
This was all thanks to Lu Qing's superb medical skills. She was so grateful that she couldn't express it in words.
“My medicine is good, but it’s also because you, Miss Hu, have been taking the medicine on time and exercising regularly recently, that’s why you’ve recovered so quickly.
Otherwise, no matter how good the medicine is, it will be in vain if the patient does not take care of his body and does not follow the doctor's advice." Lu Qing said gently.
Hu Zezhi felt warm in her heart and was about to continue thanking him when she finally noticed the movement of Lu Qing's hands.
So the words of thanks turned into curiosity: "Hey, Mr. Lu, what are you busy with?"
"No, I'm just retouching this pendant."
Lu Qingbian answered, and the carving knife in his hand had already reached the final stage of engraving.
With a light wave of his knife, he used the fine carving knife to outline a mysterious rune, which was then imprinted on the pendant in his hand.
The next moment, the pendant emitted a hazy white light, and then the white light converged, and the pendant returned to its original appearance.
However, if you look closely, you can see that there seems to be some mysterious rune flashing deep in the translucent pendant that is as smooth as jade.
"Okay, it's done, Xiaoyan, put your head over here."
Hearing her brother's words, Xiaoyan leaned over obediently.
Lu Qing gently helped her put on the pendant.
"Remember, you have to wear this pendant all the time and you can't take it off by yourself."
Lu Qing adjusted the length of the rope, making sure the little guy couldn't untie it by himself, and then gave another instruction.
"Xiaoyan knows!"
Xiaoyan responded in a sweet voice.
Then he touched the pendant happily.
She felt that the fish stone pendant seemed to become even more beautiful after being carved by her brother.
"Mr. Lu, what was that just now?"
Hu Zezhi, who watched the whole process from the side, was shocked.
She recalled the scene in Yunlai Town when Lu Qing refined the jade bottle with godly means.
"This pendant was a gift I gave to Xiaoyan before. Now I am helping her decorate it to make it look better." Lu Qing explained.
"Yes, Sister Hu, this is the first gift that brother gave to Xiaoyan. It is made of fish stones dug out from the mouth of a big black carp!"
Xiaoyan showed off to Hu Zezhi with pride.
"So that's why. No wonder it looks so beautiful." Hu Zezhi said with some envy.
Seeing that Hu Zezhi did not continue asking questions, Lu Qing smiled.
The carving he just did was naturally more than just decoration.
Instead, a basic defensive formation was engraved into the fish stone.
In the future, whenever Xiaoyan encounters danger, the formation in the fish stone will be automatically activated to protect Xiaoyan.
In this way, even if something unexpected happens in the future and he and Xiaoli cannot appear by Xiaoyan's side in time, the little girl at least has the last line of protection.
Lu Qing had actually wanted to do this for a long time.
However, in the past, although his spiritual power was strong, he still found it difficult to engrave an array formation on a small pendant.
That is to say, a few nights ago, he tried to break through to the innate realm. Although he was not completely successful, he did cultivate some true Qi.
With the nourishment of true qi, not only did the strength of the body and soul increase again, but the control ability also increased a lot.
Only in this way can one successfully engrave such an exquisite formation.
After engraving the protective formation, this pendant has become Xiaoyan's true amulet.
Hu Zezhi tactfully did not ask any further questions, and Lu Qing certainly would not tell him everything.
However, the successful engraving of the formation this time also inspired Lu Qing.
Perhaps, he could carve more similar things in case of emergency?
Just as Lu Qing was thinking about the feasibility.
Suddenly, he was shocked and looked up at the sky.
At the same time, high in the sky, a huge wave of heaven and earth suddenly sounded, resounding throughout the heavens and earth.
