Chapter 133: Reverse Slash
Amidst the loud bang, the gushing Qingmu Xuan Gang turned into a 20-foot-long cone of flames, piercing through all the medicine shops in the front yard.
Within the range covered by the green flames, everyone and everything was shattered.
The blazing green flames seemed to melt the entire Changsheng Hall.
Before the impact of the green flames arrived, Gao Xian turned into an invisible state.
The world in his eyes turned into black and white, and he himself existed in this world like a phantom.
Looking at Zhu Changsheng again in this state, one can see that the old man is emitting dazzling white light, just like the tail flame of a rocket flying into the sky.
The green flames that Zhu Changsheng unleashed were even brighter, and the black and white world seemed to be burned through by the flames.
Gao Xian's body, like a phantom, kept twisting and shaking in the flames.
He was secretly shocked that the old man's dying blow was so powerful that even he, who had turned into an invisible state, was affected by the impact of the magic power.
This shows that when the magic power reaches a certain level, it can also destroy the invisible state! Fortunately, the blue flame came violently and fiercely, and it left just as quickly. In the blink of an eye, the blue flame had completely dissipated.
As Zhu Changsheng's spiritual consciousness dissipated, the Qingmu Xuanguang that was gathered by his spiritual consciousness also collapsed. The Qingmu Xuanguang turned into layers of invisible magic power that spread out in all directions in a disorderly manner.
Zhu Qinnan, who was standing under the wall, was hit as if by an invisible heavy hammer. The Xuanhua magic shield activated by her Huangtang magic robe shattered on the spot. The huge impact of magic power carried her through the wall and flew several feet away.
The shadow in the air flickered and changed, and Gao Xian's figure emerged. He glanced at Zhu Qinnan, who fell to the ground covered in dust. Fortunately, her magic power was flowing steadily and her mind was firm. Although she looked a little embarrassed, she had not suffered any substantial harm.
Gao Xian also breathed a sigh of relief. He had just mocked Zhu Changsheng because he knew the old man was not dead yet and he had to hold back his hatred.
If the old man attacks Qiniang, she will be doomed.
Fortunately, the old man was not in a clear mind and was broken by his sarcasm, and immediately attacked him crazily.
The attack was so fierce that the entire Changsheng Hall was razed to the ground.
Including everyone in the Changsheng Hall, they were all killed on the spot. Even the middle-aged man who was at the ninth level of Qi training brought by the old man was killed by this blow.
The sound was so loud that the entire Pegasus could hear it.
Gao Xian was extremely excited at this moment. Zhu Changsheng was like a huge mountain, pressing him so hard that he couldn't breathe.
Today, he overturned Zhu Changsheng with his own hands, and he just felt that his whole body was extremely smooth and comfortable, not to mention the pleasure.
He quickly realized that Zhu Changsheng's last attack had alarmed many people. It was fine for others, but if Li Shuanglin came over, he would be unable to deal with it.
Gao Xian did not dare to delay. He hurriedly took Zhu Changsheng's storage bag, flicked his long sleeves and put the old man into another storage talisman.
After doing all this, Gao Xian used the Shadowless Robe to cover the still dazed Qinnan.
Zhu Qinnan saw Zhu Changsheng's body, but she still couldn't believe that he was killed so easily by Gao Xian.
No matter how much she thought about it beforehand, she could never have imagined this kind of outcome!
If it were to be spread that he had killed a great cultivator of the second level of foundation building with his Qi training, all the cultivators in Jiuzhou would be shocked! Gao Xian was very calm and sober at this moment. He quickly left the ruins with the dizzy and confused Qi Niang.
As soon as the two of them turned to the back of Changsheng Hall, Gao Xian saw Li Shuanglin flying from the sky and reaching above the ruins of Changsheng Hall in the blink of an eye.
Gao Xian didn't want to confront Li Shuanglin, so he took Qiniang and hid behind a wall.
The two sides were a hundred steps away, and Li Shuanglin had no way of seeing through the Shadowless Robe with his eyes. Even if he used his spiritual sense to scan, he could not sense the existence of the Shadowless Robe.
Gao Xian had conducted several tests on the only great foundation-building monk in Pegasus.
Twenty steps is a safety line. Beyond twenty steps, Li Shuanglin cannot detect the Shadowless Robe.
Gao Xian didn't dare to speak. He hugged Qinnan tightly, reminding her to pay attention through this action.
Zhu Qinnan was sober now. Although she was still extremely shocked, she was able to cooperate with Gao Xian to restrain her magic power and adjust her breath.
Li Shuanglin, who was flying by flying air, landed on the ground cautiously. As soon as he saw the tragic scene, he knew that it was the great foundation-building cultivator who took action.
Flying with the wind is very convenient and cool, but flying in the sky is not as solid as standing on the ground.
If you really encounter a sneak attack, it is very dangerous to be in the air without any cover, and it is difficult to change direction quickly to avoid the attack.
Only by becoming a Jindan Zhenren, and then relying on the harmonious Jindan to control the magic power, can one turn around and move forward and backward freely in the air.
Li Shuanglin walked around Changsheng Hall but did not find any valuable clues.
Judging from the remaining mana, it was definitely Zhu Changsheng who made the move. Only his Qingmu Lihuo Jue had the characteristics of such a fusion of wood and fire mana.
The problem was that he only sensed the Qingmu Lihuo Jue, but did not detect the magical aura left by Zhu Changsheng's opponent. This was too weird.
Judging from the ruins, Zhu Changsheng should be dead. If he was not dead, he would never have escaped quietly on his own.
Li Shuanglin and Zhu Changsheng already had a bad relationship, and this time Zhu Changsheng came to Feimaji to compete with him for food. He wished Zhu Changsheng would die soon.
But Zhu Changsheng's death inexplicably made him very uneasy.
It was even more terrifying that the other party could kill Zhu Changsheng without leaving any trace! Li Shuanglin's face was extremely gloomy. He stood on the ruins holding the sword in silence for a long time...
Gao Xian used the magic mirror to take a look at Li Shuanglin, then took Zhu Qinnan to the house on the west edge.
It’s not safe to go home at this time, so I’d better hide first.
The two entered the yard, and Da Niu, who was hiding in the house, came out hurriedly, "Seventh sister, brother, you are here."
Da Niu was extremely excited. He was particularly worried about Gao Xian and Zhu Qiniang.
The key point is that this time the enemy is Zhu Changsheng, the ancestor of the Zhu family and a great cultivator of foundation building. He felt that his seventh sister and Gao Xian were doomed, and he felt extremely depressed and uncomfortable.
Unexpectedly, Gao Xian and Qiniang arrived just as he did.
Seeing that the two were fine, Da Niu was so excited that he wanted to cry.
Gao Xian comforted Daniu. The child was obviously frightened.
Zhu Qiniang didn't want to care about Daniu. She said to Daniu, "Watch in the yard and don't let outsiders in."
After saying that, Zhu Qinnan pulled Gao Xian into the room.
This mud house was very dilapidated. It had not been lived in for a long time and no one had cleaned it. It was full of dust and had a faint musty smell.
Without Zhu Qinnan saying anything, Gao Xian took out Zhu Changsheng's body first.
Fortunately, the room is shabby, so there is no need to be particular about it.
Zhu Qinnan was now completely calm. Without saying anything, she skillfully began to examine the body. The robes, magic tools and other valuable items were quickly stripped off.
The old man, who was only wearing a set of undershirt, lay straight and skinny on the ground, staring at someone with his wide-open eyes.
“The Evergreen Robe is a mid-level second-grade item. It should be able to sell for more than 10,000 spirit stones.
"The Ten Thousand Year Peach Wood Sword is said to be taken from a Ten Thousand Year Peach Tree Monster. It is a second-grade upper-grade sword that has a great blessing effect on wood-type practitioners. It can be sold for at least 30,000 spirit stones..."
Zhu Qinnan sorted the items into categories and checked them one by one, muttering to herself.
Gao Xian didn't want to intervene, nor did he need to. Qi Niang was much better than him at picking up corpses and identifying them.
He whispered, "What should we do next?"
Kill Zhu Changsheng and this hurdle will be passed.
The problem is that Zhu Changsheng has the Lianyun Sect behind him. If the sect investigates, how should they explain?
She said without even looking up: "What else can I do? These things of the old man are very valuable. If I sell any one of them, it would be enough to buy the foundation-building pill.
"When I finish building my foundation, we will be able to gain a foothold in Qingyun City, and then we can start over."
Gao Xian nodded. This method was considered safe. However, he was reluctant to give up Pegasus.
Please...collect 6...9...books...!
He thought for a moment and took out Zhu Changsheng's storage bag, "Let me see if the old man has any other good things."
The turquoise storage bag has a complex pattern of golden runes on it, which looks very delicate.
There is the old man's spiritual mark on the storage bag. If it falls into Da Niu's hands, he will not be able to open this spiritual mark for ten or eight years.
Gao Xian activated the Zhengyang Spear, and in just a short moment he destroyed the old man's spiritual mark and opened the storage bag.
As expected of a great foundation-building monk, the storage bag has enough space of nine square meters and contains many items.
Most of them are various medicinal materials, neatly classified and placed on one side.
There are also ordinary clothes, food, drinks and other sundries, which are also arranged in an orderly manner.
There were not many truly valuable things, and Gao Xian saw more than a hundred mid-grade spirit stones at first glance.
The old man is worthy of being the head of the family, he actually has so many spirit stones!
Next to the pile of spiritual stones, there were some magic tools and talismans, as well as a few jade slips recording secret techniques and two jade boxes.
Gao Xian didn't care about anything else and took out a few exquisite jade boxes.
He didn't use his eyes to check the items in the storage bag, but his spiritual sense. Even though the jade box was placed inside, he couldn't see what was inside the jade box.
Judging from his experience, Gao Xian felt that the jade box must contain elixirs, which is why it needed to be preserved in this way.
When he opened the first jade box, he saw a blood-red pill.
The pill is about the size of a walnut, and the outer layer of the pill is very thick, which seals the medicinal properties very well.
Gao Xian had to use the scent-smelling technique to smell the refreshing medicinal fragrance emanating from the elixir.
Judging from the aroma, it should be a top-grade elixir that can improve one's cultivation. As for what it is, he couldn't tell.
Zhu Qiniang, who was standing by, was a little excited. Her bright green eyes sparkled: "Foundation Building Pill!"
"Um?"
Gao Xian's face was full of disbelief. He had never won even ten dollars in a lottery ticket, so how could he be so lucky!
He handed the pill to Zhu Qiniang, "Are you sure?"
Zhu Qiniang carefully took the pill and looked at it again and again with the identification technique for a long time. She nodded vigorously: "It is the foundation-building pill for sure!"
Gao Xian couldn't help but be overjoyed. Whatever he needed came to him. There was nothing happier than this.
He opened the other box and found another Foundation Establishment Pill inside.
Gao Xian glanced at the old man lying straight on the ground. He was a little moved and said, "You are a good person! Thank you."
Zhu Qiniang suddenly said to Gao Xian: "I will build my foundation now."
Her tone was calm, but her eyes were unusually bright, with an unshakable determination.
“There’s no need to take risks.”
Gao Xian didn't quite understand Zhu Qinnan's choice. Having two foundation-building pills could greatly increase the chance of building a foundation.
However, he heard that building a foundation also requires timing.
When a cultivator's cultivation accumulates to the extreme and then develops a sense of sensitivity, this is the best time to build a foundation.
Although Qi Niang has reached the tenth level of Qi training, I am afraid she has not yet reached the state where there is no more progress. Taking the foundation-building pill to build the foundation now is a bit too risky.
"If I can successfully build my foundation, we won't have to leave."
Zhu Qiniang said seriously: "I can go to Li Shuanglin and cooperate with him. Just say that Zhu Changsheng was assassinated by the Seven Evils Sect.
"Zhu Changsheng's teacher died a long time ago, and he has no support in the sect. No one would waste too much energy on a dead person.
"With Li Shuanglin's endorsement, the sect can handle it as well."
Gao Xian thought this was a good idea, but Zhu Qinnan would have to bear all the risks.
He hesitated and said, "It's a bit too risky."
Zhu Qiniang looked straight into Gao Xian's eyes and asked, "How confident are you that you can kill Zhu Changsheng?"
"There are always 50 to 60 percent."
Zhu Qiniang suddenly smiled. She gently stroked Gao Xian's cheek and said softly, "Zhu Changsheng values your talent for alchemy and will not embarrass you. You took the risk to kill him, isn't it all for me!"
"It doesn't matter if I take some risks to build my foundation."
She paused and continued, "After Zhu Changsheng's death, the Zhu family has no one in charge. If I can succeed in building my foundation, I can take over the Zhu family.
"If this is accomplished, it will be of great benefit to you and me."
Zhu Qiniang raised her eyebrows and said, "Remember what I told you, no one who has accomplished anything in the past or present has ever calculated it. Sometimes you just have to move forward bravely and don't think too much!"
