Chapter 315 An Accident

The blood of the grandmaster suddenly exploded, completely beyond Gu Dan's expectations.

The book "Qi Refining" didn't even mention the reaction after this thing failed! The sudden explosion was like a churning earth dragon, and the formation in the cave collapsed in an instant. The whole cave collapsed and even spread outside the cave.

"Pah, pah, pah!"

Dust was everywhere, rocks were falling and flying. Gu Dan was literally dancing with joy, his inner energy surging, crushing the rocks that almost buried him alive into powder.

"It's really not a proper Qigong cultivation method. It's very weird!"

When Gu Dan stood up from the wreckage of his cave, his face was covered in dust.

Fortunately, his physique was extremely strong. Even though his head and face were covered with his own blood, he only looked a little disheveled. His body was not seriously injured, just a little sore.

If a Grandmaster or even a cultivator in the late stage of Qi training came here, I'm afraid this would cost someone's life! After walking out of the dilapidated cave, Gu Dan took a glance and his face turned a little unhappy.

The aftermath of the explosion did not stop because of the collapse of his cave, but continued to spread around. Those caves, including the protective formations, were far less resistant than his physical body, and they were defeated and collapsed continuously.

The spiritual light of the formation was distorted, and the turbulent spiritual energy entangled into countless strange shapes of Mo Yang, and the rocks flew around.

If Gu Dan hadn't done all this himself, he might have appreciated it.

"What's going on?!"

"Enemy attack?!"

"Who dares to cause trouble in the Law Enforcement Hall?!"

The entire Ningfang was already in a tense situation outside and even more tense inside. Such a big commotion was caused here, especially around the Law Enforcement Hall, which immediately attracted the attention of countless people.

Rays of light came rushing over at a high speed, their eyes were as sharp as lightning, their voices were fierce, their spiritual lights were shining, and they were ready to fight.

"Grass!"

Gu Dan cursed inwardly, and before they came close to him, he had to dive back into the cave, roll gently twice, and gather all the energy and blood in his body, forcing out some blood.

You have to give an explanation for the mess you caused, even if it means crying.

When Lu Yu landed and came close, he looked around as if facing a powerful enemy, and saw Gu Dan trembling out of the cave, his face covered in dust and blood, and his breath was extremely weak.

"Kong Zhai?! What happened here? Did a thief secretly attack?"

Lu Yu hurried forward to help him up, his whole body tense, and asked without delaying for a moment.

Ning Fang was in a state of tension right now. He had to be alert even if nothing happened. Being attacked from inside the Law Enforcement Hall was truly a huge provocation! "Cough, cough, cough!"

Gu Dan first coughed violently a few times and spat out a mouthful of blood foam from his mouth. It was obvious that he was seriously injured.

Even when he was hit by Huang Chao before, he had never been so embarrassed! Figures fell one after another, and seeing Gu Dan so weak, they became more nervous, and their eyes scanned everything around them, as if they would definitely take down any sneaky person they saw.

"It's me."

Gu Dan said weakly.

"I know. Did you see who did it? Even if he is a Foundation Establishment cultivator, if he dares to humiliate the Law Enforcement Hall like this, he will definitely be punished!"

Lu Yu pulled Gu Dan up and said, "Don't be afraid. Now that we are here, the thief will not attack you again."

"I mean there was no thief. I just did it by accident."

Gu Dan said helplessly.

"Well, in that case. What did you say?!"

Lu Yu's voice suddenly became high, and he looked at Gu Dan in disbelief, pointing his finger at the ruins in front of him that had collapsed beyond recognition, as well as the cave dwellings and the collapsed mountain on both sides that had unfortunately been implicated, "Did you cause this situation here?!"

Not only him, but also the many monks who came rushing here because of the commotion here had expressions of disbelief on their faces.

What a joke! Every yellow-level cave is covered by a formation. Even if a cultivator in the late stage of Qi training wants to break it, it will take a while, which is enough time for the owner of the cave to react.

Just looking at the destruction he had caused, how could an ordinary person do this? Even he could not guarantee that he could destroy a cave protected by a formation with his full strength, let alone destroying the cave completely and even affecting the surroundings.

I'm afraid only a foundation-building cultivator could cause such a level of damage! And what about Kong Zhai's strength? A master, at the third level of Qi training! That's just the early stage of Qi training. Even if he risked his life, he would be considered very powerful if he could demolish a cave in a short time. How could he cause such a great deal of damage? "It was indeed me."

Gu Dan's face was full of bitterness. The time had come to show off his acting skills. The incident happened suddenly and there was no preparation at all. Naturally, it was impossible for him to fabricate an enemy to take the blame.

Every lie requires more lies to cover it up. In this case, you might as well take it on yourself. You can find a reason to make up for it, but it will be a big trouble if you make up a person out of thin air.

"Hiss~"

Lu Yu took a deep breath and looked Gu Dan up and down, as if he was looking at some weird creature, and asked repeatedly: "Are you sure you did this? How did you do it? Why did you do it?"

"A few days ago, after receiving the call from the Law Enforcement Hall, I felt uneasy. I practiced at night, and on a whim, I was promoted to the fourth level of Qi training!"

His mind raced as Gu Dan slowly spoke.

Although the third and fourth levels of Qi training seem to be only one level apart, one is the early stage of Qi training, and the other is the middle stage of Qi training, so the gap is still quite large.

"Um."

Lu Yu nodded slightly, waiting for his next words.

For a cultivator with inferior spiritual roots, it is considered quite talented to be promoted to the middle stage of Qi training after eight years of hard training. Of course, this must be due to his ability to devote himself wholeheartedly to practice. It can be said that hard work and environment are indispensable, which is not too surprising.

"After the fourth level of Qi training, it will be difficult to make any progress in a short period of time if you continue to practice."

Gu Dan thought for a moment and said, "If you want to improve your combat power in a short period of time, the best way is to practice immortal magic."

"Um."

Lu Yu nodded again. This was also very reasonable and there was nothing wrong with it.

The only question is, what kind of magical spell could allow a cultivator who had just been promoted to the middle stage of Qi training to burst out with such strong power that not only could he destroy his own cave, but he could also cause damage to other caves?

This is what he cares about most.

"While practicing the magic, I suddenly had an idea. If I use the true energy and spiritual energy together, can the power be increased again?"

Gu Dan's face was pale, and he said with lingering fear: "So I mobilized all my true energy and spiritual energy. Who would have thought that the magic was only half successful, and they exploded."

".You are fully committed to experimenting with magic in your own cave?"

The expression on Lu Yu's face became extremely strange.

Is this something a human can do?

What is the martial arts field in Ningfang used for?

"I also know that this matter seems a bit inappropriate. It's just that I had just been promoted to the middle stage of Qi training at that time, and I was in a state of excitement and didn't think too much about it."

Gu Dan naturally understood that this explanation seemed a bit pale, but it was more acceptable than "I'm laying my cards on the table. I'm actually refining blood qi."

After all, it is not an exaggeration to say that the original version of "Lian Qi" is a genuine evil technique. Between two evils, it is better to say that it was just a sudden inspiration that caused trouble.

It was just a little bit of noise. Apart from him, the most direct victim, no one else was affected.

"You should heal your wounds first. This matter still needs the decision of the Huang Chao Hall Master."

Lu Yu looked at the collapsed cave in front of him again, thought for a moment and said.

No one expected that before the chaos outside spread to Ningfang, someone would fall inside Ningfang.

Without waiting too long, Huang Chao had already rushed over from the prefecture-level area.

After seeing the completely unrecognizable cave here, a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes.

This kind of destructive power is extraordinary! Even if it was him, it would take a lot of effort to destroy the cave into this state.

After listening to Lu Yu's report of what happened here, Huang Chao slowly walked into the ruins, looking around.

In front of Gu Dan's cave, there were the least gravel, only a thick layer of dust covering it, which looked like the rocks had been crushed into powder by an extremely violent force.

Only further away can you see large pieces of rubble, which are where the aftermath was.

There were a lot of bloodstains on the ground, which was normal. After all, it was lucky not to die after such an explosion.

"Master, is there anything strange about Kong Zhai?"

After sending away the rest of the people in the Law Enforcement Hall, Lu Yu quickly approached and said, "I have checked his injuries. He is indeed seriously injured. It cannot be faked. The brothers who came here have not seen the others. There should be no one else here."

"That means, this place was really destroyed by Kong Zhai alone?"

Huang Chao pressed down lightly with his palm, and spiritual energy gushed out, penetrating the ground and directly pulling out a bone covered with cracks from deep underground.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

It turned out to be the skeleton of the master used to set up the formation here.

I saw that the master's skeleton was covered with dense cracks. When I took it in my hand and applied a little force, it scattered all over the ground like flowers from heaven.

The spiritual materials used to form the formation could not withstand such a terrifying attack, and the formation naturally collapsed.

"Has Kong Zhai made any moves in recent years?"

After thinking for a while, Huang Chao asked.

"No. Apart from cultivation, he seems to care about nothing else, including the internal affairs of the Law Enforcement Hall. He doesn't even have many Taoist friends he's close to. He only gets along well with Zhuang Sheng."

Lu Yu answered immediately.

Ever since Gu Dan came here, Zhuang Sheng can only rank second when it comes to leisurely life.

Apart from the necessary patrols, the other party did not take any action at all. It has been eight years, and even Ning Fang's formation has not been used once.

As for the other party's true origins, there is really no way to find out.

If we report a distant country, it would take five, six, seven or eight years to travel there. What is there to check? The opportunity is gone! A hero does not ask where he came from, and so does a master.

"It should just be an accident."

Looking around, Huang Chao spoke slowly.

If he was really a spy planted by the other immortal houses, there would be no benefit at all from doing so except exposing himself in advance.

The fact that he hadn't taken any action in the past eight years and wasn't very close to others was enough to show that he was a person devoted to cultivation.

Moreover, the other party was familiar with Zhuang Sheng, and it was normal that they had similar personalities. Zhuang Sheng was also his fellow villager, so he could just ask him later.

"Then how should this matter be handled?"

Lu Yu asked.

This was the first time that someone's own cave was blown up since Ningfang was established, and there was no precedent to follow.

"Let him pay the compensation he deserves, and then he can rest and recover. While he's recovering, just take care of the situation in the mortal-level area."

Huang Chao waved his hand. He had more important things to do. "However, considering that he did not intentionally destroy it, he only needs to compensate for the loss of the formation, and forget about the rest."

"yes."

Lu Yu nodded slightly.

If the compensation is really based on the price of the cave, then all the spirit stones that Gu Dan has accumulated over the years will have to be spent in one go.

But if it was just the loss of the formation, it would actually be just a matter of dozens of spirit stones.

In the yellow-level area, the important location and spiritual energy are not those stones.

This combination of kindness and severity can be considered a warning.

In the ordinary area, inside Lingzhen Hall.

Gu Dan was lying on the bed.

Qian Qiancheng, the elder of Lingzhen Hall, who he had met several times, was treating him.

A ray of spiritual light penetrated into Gu Dan's body, but Gu Dan did not resist.

"The flesh and blood are damaged, the qi and blood are damaged, the tendons and bones are dislocated, and even the five internal organs are injured."

The corner of Qian Qiancheng's mouth twitched. This was because the master's physique was far superior to that of ordinary people. If an ordinary cultivator suffered such an injury, it would be considered a success if he did not die, let alone remain conscious.

"cough."

Gu Dan spat out a mouthful of blood at the right time, "Thank you for troubling Elder Qian."

"Practice is a gradual process. Fellow Daoist Kong, please don't be too anxious. With such an injury, it would be impossible to recover without recuperation for a year or two."

After the diagnosis, Qian Qiancheng said, "Fortunately, Lingzhen Hall has some miraculous medicine. Otherwise, Brother Kong would have been delayed for five or six years at best, or even worse, would have suffered from lifelong suffering!"

"well"

Gu Dan sighed, his expression bleak, "I was just impulsive, who would have thought that this would be the result."

"Just rest and recover here."

Qian Qiancheng also knew that it was not convenient to talk about this topic any further, so after a brief chat, he left in a hurry.

Gu Dan was left alone lying on the bed, looking out the window at the deep and vast sky.

Refining the acquired qi, even if it fails, is still so dangerous! If he didn't have a deep foundation, he would have suffered a great loss.

There was really no preparation for this accident.

But it's fine this way.

It was already a turbulent time, so because of this accident, it was a good thing to temporarily get away from the center of the Law Enforcement Hall, which saved a lot of trouble.

The only thing that troubled him was that if he wanted to refine the acquired Qi in the future, he would have to leave Ningfang and try far away, otherwise no matter how many caves he had, they would not be enough for him to blow up.

While he was thinking, an arc of light suddenly appeared in the sky.

No, not Arclight.

It was the rippling waves of spiritual energy! The spiritual energy was like clouds and mist, covering the sky and completely enveloping the dojo on the mountain.

The closed-door policy has begun!

Before the formation is lifted, Ningfang will become an isolated island that does not welcome outsiders, in order to avoid the turbulent tide of the outside world.

An unprecedented "Grandmaster's Disaster" is happening in the same mountain range, but in a different place!
