Chapter 93 (Like a Duck in Water)



There was no trace of Wei Yan and Tu Jiuyi!

The two men seemed to notice Ranran's gaze, and they slowly lowered their heads, looked at their feet, and then revealed strange smiles.

These two in front of me... are clearly two fakes that evolved from the nine-headed python!

At this moment, Su Yishui waved his hand slightly, and the white tiger sensed Su Yishui's murderous intent, roared angrily, and pounced towards the two men, and the two men also fought back.

This pair of fakes completely inherited the original's skills, and even surpassed the original. If it was the White Tiger from before, I'm afraid they wouldn't be their opponent.

But now, under the blessing of Ran Ran Dan Xiu, the white tiger's spiritual energy has surged. It usually runs all over the West Mountain, feeling very comfortable. These days, it has been staying in the inn, unable to release its energy, and has long been suffocated to the point of exploding wildness.

This time, the big cat found the mouse to tease and it immediately found fun.

After just a few rounds, the two fakes were covered with scratches and bruises.

But those two men seemed to feel no pain, and even though their legs were scratched to the point of bones, they still did not reduce their attack.

Seeing that they could not enter the guest inn, the two men looked at each other, and Tu Jiuyi suddenly threw two small porcelain bottles into the room.

Ran Ran had been on guard against them since the beginning. When she saw the bottles being thrown, she took off the cushion on the chair and wrapped the two bottles. Su Yishui quickly took it and used his spiritual power to roll the cushion into a ball and wrap it tightly.

At this moment, Tu Jiuyi rolled his eyes and said sinisterly: "Go back, what happens here has nothing to do with you..." Before he could finish his words, Tu Jiuyi had one of his arms torn off by the white tiger. In an instant, his soul seemed to be sucked out and he fell limply to the ground, motionless, with his skin turning the gray of death.

The fake Wei Yan quickly turned around and ran away.

By the time they chased out of the inn, Wei Yan had already run away and disappeared.

At this time, Su Yishui also peeled off the mat and took out the two white porcelain jade bottles.

The porcelain bottle was so thin that if Ran Ran hadn't been prepared and caught it with a cushion, it would have broken into pieces on the ground immediately.

Through the bottle, one could faintly see something moving inside. Su Yishui took it and looked at it intently, then said slowly, "It's not something that kills people, but a worm that makes people fall into a coma."

After Su Yishui booked the inn, he set up a spiritual shield so that even the inn's original employees could not enter.

Today they were late in going out, and the Brahma sect who had been spying on them could no longer hold back, so they sent these two fakes into the inn while Wei Yan was out, and when no one was paying attention, they poured the insects in the porcelain bottle into the soup and knocked them down.

Xue Ranran originally thought that the porcelain bottle would contain python poison, but it turned out to be just a drowsy insect. The insidious Brahma Cult seemed to be particularly gentle to the people of Xishan.

No wonder Wei Yan always tried to ask whether their Xishan and Brahma Sect had some old connection, such as some kind of in-law relationship. Otherwise, why did Brahma Sect "love" Xishan so much?

After figuring out that the Brahma Cult seemed to want to capture the people from Xishan alive, they were still confused.

Wen Chunhui was still terrified and asked, "Is Wei Yan...dead?"

She still remembered Wang Suizhi's assertion in the morning. After Wei Yan left, a fake one came. The real him should be in a dangerous state.

At this moment, voices were heard at the door again.

I saw Wei Yan go away and come back!

Gao Cang couldn't help but curse out loud: "Isn't this fucking over yet? Why do you want to do it again? Are you going to let me have lunch?"

The white tiger roared again and pounced towards Wei Yan.

Wei Yan hurriedly defended himself, cursing loudly, "What's wrong with this beast? Why did it suddenly come and bite me?"

At this moment, he saw the torn body of Tu Jiuyi on the ground. He stared in amazement, and was bitten on the arm by the white tiger, screaming in pain.

Ran Ran realized that he was not as painless as those fake giant pythons, so he quickly stopped Bai Hu and looked at Wei Yan.

Wei Yan ignored the bloody scene next door and just stared at Tu Jiuyi's body. He said gloomily, "Who of you killed her?"

It was already past noon, and the method of looking at the shadow was no longer effective. Ran Ran briefly explained what had just happened and said, "She shouldn't be the real Tu Jiuyi, but a fake one copied by snake venom... Where did you go just now?"

Wei Xuan frowned and said, "I just went for a walk in the town. This town is too remote and there are only a few shops. I wanted to eat outside, but the tabletops in the restaurants were so dirty that I lost my appetite, so I came back."

He squatted down and looked intently at Tu Jiuyi. The face that had accompanied him for many years had a deathly gray color, and his eyes were staring blankly.

There were fakes mixed in with the Red Flame Mountain, so it was no surprise that this Tu Jiuyi was also infected by the snake venom and copied. The real Tu Jiuyi should have been killed by now.

Thinking of this, Wei Yan suddenly felt upset and was about to walk into the inn.

But Ran Ran stopped him and said politely: "It is past noon now, and the time has not come yet. We cannot verify your true identity, so you cannot enter this inn. We will verify your identity at midnight... Please take a walk outside, and come back at midnight."

Su Yishui waved his hand at this time, and the spiritual shield of the inn bounced Wei Yan out.

The blow was so powerful that the money bag hanging around Wei Yan's waist was blown off and landed squarely in Wang Suizhi's arms.

Qiu Xier was stunned: "Uncle Wang, you are really lucky today. You can make a small fortune without leaving home! I admire you so much!"

Besides, Wei Yan, who was bounced out, lost his balance and fell to the ground. He felt something sticky under him and when he looked down, he found that he had actually sat on dog shit.

The hand that was leaning on the ground was now also shining brightly!

Wei Yan was so angry that he jumped up and cursed Su Yishui for being wicked, and then he insisted on going in to change clothes and take a shower. Unfortunately, the door of the inn was closed, and he was not allowed to go in until the time came.

At this time, Wei Yan recalled the words of the old charlatan Wang Suizhi - "If you leave this inn today, I'm afraid you will be in big trouble."

Now it seems that the old charlatan’s words have actually come true one by one, which is really weird.

It rained heavily in the afternoon. Wei Yan took off his coat and threw it on the street. He was soaked after taking just two steps. Although he used his spirit shield to block the rain, his clothes were still soaked. The mold had really hit him.

Wei Yan stood under the eaves, looking at the black tower on the empty mountain in the distance with a gloomy face, but he couldn't help but wonder in his heart whether his loyal subordinate Tu Jiuyi was really gone?

Later, at midnight, after finally verifying the identity of the person watching under the lamp, Wei Yan walked into the inn. He was wearing thin underwear and his hair was tied up. The feminine beauty of a generation of demons was greatly reduced. He was filled with murderous aura that could kill immortals.

The next day, at the breakfast table, Qiu Xier immediately couldn't wait to ask Uncle Wang if there was any chance of survival today.

But Wang Suizhi frowned and looked at it for a while, then shook his head with a little regret: "Yesterday's attack was too severe. Now the back of my head hurts, and everything I see is dark. Maybe you have to try your luck."

Xue Ranran nodded, looking at his old disciple with some heartache, and said: "You should have a good sleep in the inn today. I have prepared some pills suitable for you to take, which can just replenish your spirit."

Two counterfeit people came to our door yesterday, which means their whereabouts have been exposed. There is no need to hide anymore. Today is the best day to break into the mountain gate.

So after breakfast, Wang Suizhi and Qiu Xier, the two least capable fighters, stayed behind to look after the house. The inn's spiritual shield had not been removed, so they should be safe hiding inside.

As for the rest of the people, including Wei Yan and Wen Chunhui, they set off together and headed for Kongshan.

As for Wang Suizhi's words yesterday about not going out because of the dangers everywhere, they were also proved right. When they left the town, they found that the closer they got to Kongshan, the more brown and black mud fell on the trees and roads along the way, as if it was a heavy rain of black mud that fell near Kongshan yesterday.

Ran Ran even discovered that the brown-black mud seemed to have a strong sour smell, and even corroded and broke many weak small trees.

Along the way, there were also a few passers-by who were burned while rushing through the night, falling in the black mud and constantly calling for help in pain.

Ran Ran quickly used his true power to clear a piece of land and moved the injured along the way to this open space. They said that it was normal when it started to rain yesterday, but at night, black rain fell, burning people. They originally hid in the cave, but later the black mud began to flow back, and they had to run out.

There was still thunder in the sky above the empty mountain. Although it was no longer raining, the sound of thunder was still there.

Wen Chunhui's face changed when she saw this. She had devoted herself to cultivating the Dao for several decades and had seen some battles. How could this scene... look so much like the scene of eternal damnation that her master had described?

It is said that if someone dares to disturb the yin and yang of heaven and earth and do something to subvert the universe, the gods will be furious and will bring down the sky with dark rain, followed by thunder and lightning. By then, there will be no place to hide within a hundred miles, and perhaps even the villages and towns around the empty mountain will be affected.

"How could such a sign appear?"

Ran Ran looked at the black spiritual tower that seemed to be constantly being built, and murmured: "Perhaps it was the black tower that shouldn't have appeared that brought about the heavenly calamity..."

Everyone looked closely and saw that the thunder was indeed concentrated on the top of the tower, as if it wanted to smash the black tower to pieces. However, the sky above the empty mountain seemed to be covered by something, so the black rain and thunder were blown away and scattered around the empty mountain.

They traveled at full speed all the way, and when they finally reached the foot of the empty mountain, the lightning and thunder became even more intense, and it was difficult to get any closer.

At this moment, amidst the thunder and lightning, Ranran vaguely saw several figures hanging in the air, looking towards the empty mountain.

At this moment, one of them turned around and looked at them, and Ranran recognized him at once. That person... was none other than Yao Laoxian!

The last time I saw him was during the Qixi Festival. At that time, he pretended to be an ordinary commoner, standing beside the stone steps by the river, like a handsome scholar mourning his deceased wife.

But now Yao Laoxian is dressed in a crimson robe, with cinnabar lightly dotted between his eyebrows and a faint golden glow on his face, looking like an immortal. It reminds people that there is a world of difference between him and his brother, and now he is already among the immortals.

When he saw the group from Xishan, Yao Laoxian left his companions and landed in front of them gracefully: "You are here too."

Ran Ran clasped his fists and said, "May I ask the Immortal, what happened in this empty mountain that would lead to eternal damnation?"

Yao Laoxian also had a murderous look on his face, and whispered, "Do you know what the tower on the mountain is made of?"

Wei Yan frowned and asked, "Isn't it a black stone?"

Yao Laoxian shook his head with a bitter smile: "If it was a stone, how could it bring about divine punishment? Those charred things... are the charred corpses of great masters who have transcended tribulations and ascended to heaven in past generations..."

Regardless of whether the ascension is successful or not, the physical body will be abandoned in the ascension tribulation, and those powerful beings have indestructible bodies of diamond. If they are not turned into powder, the bones left behind are extremely hard.

No wonder the Brahma Sect took great pains to replace all the leaders of the three major sects. Only by completely controlling the major sects can they unscrupulously dig up the graves of the major sects for thousands of years and dig out the bones of those great men.

To be able to build such tall towers, and more than one at that, means that they must have dug out bones from various unknown hilltops... Why did they do that?

Su Yishui suddenly asked, "Is the Brahma Cult planning to build the Heaven-Defying Tower?"

Yao Laoxian nodded solemnly. Ran Ran's eyes widened, not knowing what the function of this Heaven-Defying Tower was.

Wei Yan had heard something about it, and after being shocked, he squinted his eyes and said, "As the saying goes, even gods cannot buy regret medicine. Some things are difficult to change once they happen. But there are ways to go against the will of heaven. It is said that the Tower of Defying Heaven can turn back time and change things that have already happened... Such regret medicine actually exists..."

Now everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. Ran Ran had never thought that the Brahma Cult would do something so outrageous.

She had changed the fate of the Mortal Emperor against the will of Heaven, and had almost lost her soul. And the Brahma Cult was even more audacious, wanting to change what had already happened and go back to the past.

I wonder what this evil cult wants to change that makes people regret it?

The construction of such an evil tower will obviously not be tolerated by God. Once the tower is built and connects heaven and earth, I am afraid that not only the human world but also the heavenly world will undergo drastic changes.

No wonder the Emperor of Heaven sent several immortals to raid the camp, they had to see with their own eyes that the Tower of Defying Heaven was destroyed.

At this moment, there was a flash of light in the sky, and a bolt of lightning meandered down from the sky, striking the black tower like a lightsaber, but was blocked outside the empty mountain by an invisible light shield.

After this lightning, it was as if a drop of water was thrown into boiling oil, and countless thunderbolts struck down, as if connecting the sky and the earth together. Xue Ranran and others were stunned by this scene that seemed like the end of the world, and even several immortals kept silent.

Although they are immortals, they are all lower-level immortals who have just ascended to heaven, so such scenes are not common.

The lightning struck the light shield continuously, and a layer of lightning spread on the light shield. However, it was unknown how this light shield was formed. Although it was shaken by the lightning, it always managed to hold its ground without breaking.

After half an incense stick of time, the thunder gradually subsided, and the light shield fluctuated for a while and then slowly became stable as before.

Xue Ranran and Wei Yan were stunned. Several immortals who were traveling with Yao Laoxian also gasped. They never expected that even Wanjie Tianlan could not break the light shield. This mission was about to fail. They were also at a loss and had no idea what to do.

Su Yishui had just been concentrating on watching the scene of using thunder to strike the empty mountain. He seemed to have discovered something, so he said, "Let me try..."

After saying this, he leapt to the foot of the empty mountain when the thunder and lightning paused, took out a handful of silver needles from his pocket, and then looked up at the thunder and lightning in the sky.

He saw clearly just now that every time the untold calamity of heaven and earth rolled over, the invisible light shield would weaken for a moment, and then continue to strengthen to take on the next untold wrath of thunder.

So he had to cooperate with the lightning of destiny and look for this moment of weakness.

However, by doing so, he himself would be in the midst of thunder and lightning, which was extremely dangerous.

Xue Ranran felt her heart pounding as she watched him dodge the lightning with such agility.

She turned over and rode on the white tiger, and also entered the thunder array and lightning, and waved the mechanical stick to help Su Yishui divert the lightning.

Su Yishui shouted at Ran Ran with a stern face: "Who let you in? Get out now!"

Those charred bones piled into towers have all experienced the power of destiny.

This kind of eternal punishment, I'm afraid even the immortals in the immortal class can't bear it. Xue Ranran barged in so recklessly, if he was hit by the lightning, I'm afraid his life would be in danger immediately.

But Xue Ranran said hurriedly: "Don't waste time dawdling, hurry up!"

Su Yishui glared at her fiercely, but he knew that what she said made sense. Now she was in the midst of eternal damnation, and it would be too late for her to get out.

Thinking of this, he took out a silver acupuncture needle in each hand and kept shooting it at the light shield in the gaps between lightning strikes. At the same time, he kept moving his body to try various parts of the light shield.

As he had guessed, this invisible shield was not always unbreakable.

When it is strong, a silver needle will turn into smoke immediately when it touches it. When it becomes weak, the silver needle will turn into powder.

After trying for a while, Su Yishui stopped wandering and stopped at one place. He reached out and took out a handful of silver needles. He swung them repeatedly with his right hand, hitting the light shield one by one, and all of them pierced the same point. At this time, the lightning of heaven was constantly attracted by the silver needles and hit the same place. As the strength of the lightning increased, the light shield began to sink.

Yao Laoxian, who had been watching from the outside, brightened his eyes and said, "Good trick. Although the Ten Thousand Jun Thunder is strong, it attacks in a dispersed manner. The silver needle looks weak, but because it gathers spiritual power at the tip of the needle, it is quite powerful."

He saw that Su Yishui's technique was very peculiar. Each silver needle was inserted into one spot continuously according to a special rhythm.

Before the light shield could recover from the previous silver needle's spiritual power attack, it was attacked by the next silver needle. Under the continuous attack of the silver needles, the previous force had not yet disappeared, and new force was generated. The damage to the light shield accumulated little by little, and it was possible to be broken.

The number of silver needles in Su Yishui's hand gradually decreased, but the number of times lightning was drawn towards the light shield increased.

The invisible shield became more and more concave, and finally a crack appeared under a series of thunder strikes.

In this moment, Su Yishui, Xue Ranran, and Gengjin White Tiger flashed in. However, the light shield quickly returned to its original state, and the crack was completely invisible.

At this time, several immortals in long robes hanging in the air said to Yao Laoxian with a little worry: "There are two mortals and a long-haired animal going in. I'm afraid it won't work, right?"

Wei Yan had been watching the excitement from the sidelines, but after hearing what these immortals said, he couldn't help but snort coldly and said with a smile: "You all have immortal bones and divine muscles, but you are always afraid of attracting lightning and are unwilling to put yourself in danger. Therefore, all those who entered are mortals, and there is not a single immortal..."

After hearing his sarcasm, Yao Laoxian just smiled bitterly.

It is not easy to ascend to immortality. Everyone who has experienced it knows how terrifying the heavenly tribulation is, let alone the eternal tribulation that can destroy the immortal body?

Therefore, the immortals just now obviously cherished their feathers and did not easily risk their lives to help them.

Wei Yan was telling the truth, and Yao Laoxian was not too angry. But the white-haired immortal obviously did not tolerate this, he just snorted coldly, flicked the whisk in his hand, and Wei Yan flew up in the air, hit Xuan'er, and fell into the black mud.

When he tried to stand up, he felt as if his body was crushed by a millstone and he could not get up. His head was pressed back into the black mud several times. He felt extremely terrified.

Although a generation of demon cultivator could fight with Su Yishui for hundreds of rounds, in front of a truly ascended immortal, he was like an ant and could be killed with just a flick of the finger.

Wei Yan fell hard, especially his neck and face, which were burned by the corrosive black mud. He screamed in pain immediately.

When the immortals withdrew, he stood up angrily, looking at the immortals hanging in the air, high above him, his teeth grinding from all directions.

No wonder everyone wants to become an immortal. This feeling of being high above all others and invincible is more satisfying than being an emperor. One day, he will also stand on the top of the clouds and crush those who dare to look down on him into powder one by one... no matter whether they are human or immortal!

Without going into details about how Wei Yan swore a solemn oath in secret, the two men who broke into the empty mountain rode their white tigers all the way up and soon reached the halfway point of the empty mountain.

Su Yishui once visited Kongshan when he was young, so he was very familiar with the terrain here.

The moment they broke in, the Brahma followers in the empty mountain seemed to sense something and started searching everywhere.

Just when Su Yishui and Xue Ranran were hiding in a cave on the top of a cliff, a familiar voice suddenly came from above their heads: "It seems that the shield moved abnormally just now. Hurry up, search carefully and don't let anyone in!"

Ranran and Su Yishui looked at each other, and they recognized that the voice was made by Mu Ranwu.

Unexpectedly, Mu Ranwu was also in Kongshan. She seemed to be doing well in the Brahma Sect. I don't know what kind of benefits someone promised her.

But since she is here, the next thing seems to be easy.

When Su Yishui glanced at Xue Ranran, Xue Ranran immediately understood what he meant.

Although her sister in her previous life had a vicious heart, if she could be caught and given a truth talisman, she would definitely tell them everything and reveal many important truths.
