Chapter 129 Tianxialou
In Zhongzhou City.
Tianxialou is known as the best building in the world.
In the previous dynasty, there was a sect that was the largest in the world. Every year, it would invite sects from all over the world to come here to drink wine and discuss heroes. It was a grand event in the martial arts world.
Today, the previous dynasty has perished, and the once number one sect in the world has also disappeared in the dust of history, but this number one building in the world is still there.
Every year, many chivalrous men and literati come here to reminisce the grand occasion when people from all over the world gathered here to drink wine and discuss heroes.
Recently, as the news of the appearance of the Seven-Aperture Spiritual Stone in the Canghai Sect spread, young talents from various sects and families all heard the news and flocked to Zhongzhou City, whether they had received an invitation from the Canghai Sect or not.
The Tianxia Building was even more crowded.
"Isn't that the Kuang family?"
"Look, it's someone from the Ling family."
"The Huo family is here too..."
……
Everyone was talking about it, and the most eye-catching ones were naturally the seven major clans. In comparison, the foundation of the nine major sects was still a little lacking.
In recent years, the seven major clans have become more low-key, but this has not damaged their reputation at all.
There were also people in the crowd who disliked these noble families and said, "Humph, what's so great about the seven great families? There is not even one in the top ten of the Grandmaster Ranking, and even in the Heavenly Ranking, there are only two. In my opinion, these families are no longer useful."
"You know nothing. The seven great clans have long stopped participating in the disputes in the martial arts world. As long as they don't fight with others, even a half-immortal can't figure out their specific strength."
"Without the strength, of course I dare not participate in the fight."
"you……"
……
On the ninth floor of Tianxia Building, a woman in red stood in front of the railing, gazing at the mountains in the distance. A gust of wind blew away her hair, but it could not blow away the sadness between her brows.
Beside him, a tall man was standing, also looking into the distance, his face as gloomy as water, and his whole body exuded an aura that said "keep away from strangers".
"Sister Xining, Brother Yaowu."
At this time, an innocent girl came over and said apologetically, "I'm so sorry for neglecting you two."
These two people are none other than Wang Yaowu and Wang Xining, brother and sister from Weiyuan Marquis’ Mansion.
The two men bowed to the girl and said, "Greetings, Young Master."
This woman was none other than the daughter of the head of the Canghai Sect, one of the Four Great Prodigies, and number one on the Grandmaster Ranking, Yin Shengxue. She said somewhat embarrassedly, "Don't call me Young Headmaster. It makes me feel bad."
As she spoke, she looked around and asked in a low voice, "Are you worried about Senior Sister Shangguan? Anyway, I absolutely don't believe that she will be deceived by the Holy Son of the Demon Cult. There must be some misunderstanding here."
Wang Xining's eyes dimmed and he remained silent.
Wang Yaowu gnashed his teeth and said, "It must be that evil cult's monster who framed me."
Yin Shengxue said, "Those who know Senior Sister Shangguan know what kind of person she is and would never believe that she would do such a thing. No one knows where she is now or why she hasn't shown up."
Wang Yaowu said, "Perhaps, she fell into the hands of that evil cult villain."
Wang Xining on the side seemed to want to say something, his lips moved, but in the end, he said nothing.
"Here comes Chief Pei from the Supervisory Department."
Suddenly, a voice was heard outside the door. The entire nine floors fell silent, and everyone looked towards the door at the same time, only to see a petite woman walking in.
Most of the people present had never seen the true face of this Chief Pei, and they couldn't help but think, "I didn't expect that this God of Killing would look like this."
"Hahaha--"
At this time, a loud laugh sounded, and a fat middle-aged man came out from nowhere, greeted Pei Bingqing, and said, "Master Pei, I am sorry for not welcoming you to my humble building. I hope you will forgive me."
This seemingly inconspicuous fat man is the owner of Tianxia Tower. His name is Yan Qing and he is a peerless master ranked eleventh on the Tianbang.
Pei Bingqing said, "Master Yan is too polite. I came here uninvited."
"I wonder why Master Pei has come all the way here?"
"I have official business to attend to."
Yan Qing did not want to ask more questions. The only person in the world who could move this killing god was the Queen Mother who lived deep in the palace. He said, "If there is anything I can do for you, please let me know, Chief Pei."
Pei Bingqing was about to say something when her eyes suddenly turned cold. She turned her head and looked in a certain direction outside.
Yan Qing was half a beat slower than her. His expression changed slightly and he turned to look.
As everyone was wondering, they soon felt a powerful wave coming from a distance.
"It's a Dharma Image Realm expert fighting with someone."
"what's the situation?"
"This magical power is the Black Flame Magic of the Xuanming Sect."
……
Most of those present were elites from aristocratic sects. Upon hearing that it was a powerful Dharma image master from the Xuanming Sect, they were not afraid. Instead, they were all eager to give it a try.
He wished that the strong men from the Demon Cult would come quickly so that he could let them try out his sword.
It's not that they are arrogant. Almost all of them were accompanied by their elders on this trip to Zhongzhou. Let alone a mere Dharma Image Realm of the Demon Sect, even if the Xuanming Sect came out in full force, they might not be able to get anything good.
"Humph!"
At this moment, Pei Bingqing snorted coldly, drew his sword and slashed out.
Everyone only felt a sharp breath passing by.
The next moment, the aura of the powerful Dharma image in the distance weakened and disappeared.
I don't know whether he died or escaped.
Everyone present was knowledgeable, and their eyes towards Pei Bingqing suddenly became full of respect and awe. The powerful Dharma Image Master of the Xuanming Sect was at least a hundred miles away, but he couldn't even block her sword from a distance. The strength of this Pei Zuzuo was even more terrifying than the rumors said.
Yan Qing said with a complicated expression, "Congratulations to Master Pei for finding your own path."
Pei Bingqing looked at him, as if she could see through the person in front of her, and said, "Master Yan has already taken that step, I wonder why he is trapped here?"
Yan Qing smiled bitterly and said nothing.
Pei Bingqing didn't say much and turned and left.
There was no one she was looking for here.
As for the magic image of the evil cult, she had no intention of chasing after it. A powerful magic image was not so easy to kill, and she didn't want to waste time on it.
……
But it was a hundred miles away.
Gu Mingchuan took a palm strike from the mysterious powerful Dharma image and nearly died on the spot. Not only could his body not bear it, but the true energy transformed from the "Tathagata Sutra" almost burst him.
He knew very well that the other party had not intended to kill him. If he had really intended to kill him, it would have been enough to take half his life.
At this time, he also clearly realized the huge gap between himself and the powerful Dharma Image masters.
At this time, the big hand made of vital energy slapped towards him again.
Gu Mingchuan madly injected the true energy transformed in his body into the Shenxiao Sword, and with the crackling sound of electric current, he performed the first move of the Shenxiao sword technique.
This time, there was no change in the celestial phenomena.
He couldn't even move the heavens.
This is completely a realm suppression. This strongest sword move cannot exert its corresponding power at all.
boom!
Gu Mingchuan slashed at the giant hand with his sword. The sharp Shenxiao sword cut the giant hand in half, but it split into two and suddenly closed, trapping him in the middle.
He felt like he was being shattered.
"The Sutra of Transmutation and Freedom, you are actually practicing the Sutra of Transmutation and Freedom, hahahaha..." The man suddenly laughed wildly, "God is really helping me!"
Gu Mingchuan knew that he could not defeat the opponent by himself, so he did not hesitate any longer and released the Buddha who was isolated at the edge of the sea of consciousness.
"what!"
At this moment, the other party suddenly let out a scream.
He saw the other person's body suddenly split into two, and the next second, the two halves flew away at such a fast speed that he almost couldn't react.
The huge hand formed by the vital energy disintegrated on its own.
Who saved me?
Gu Mingchuan looked up, but saw nothing.
Just now, there seemed to be a sword intent, and there was an inexplicable sense of familiarity...
Anyway, I was finally saved.
Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, he noticed a figure appearing above him. It was a Dharma Image Realm expert. He put his finger in front of his lips, signaling him not to make a sound. With a flick of his sleeves, he, Gong Miaomiao, and Shangguan Yu, who were not far away, sank into the water.
The three of them had no choice but to drift downstream.
……
Not long after, two figures arrived here. They were the powerful masters of the Tianjian Sect and the Canghai Sect.
The reason why they didn't rush here immediately was that they were worried that they had fallen into the trap set by the Xuanming Sect. They wanted to confirm the situation in Zhongzhou City as soon as possible.
After confirming that there were no evil spirits from the Xuanming Sect hiding in the city, he rushed over to check the situation.
"There are no survivors within a ten-mile radius."
"Why did this envoy of the Xuanming Sect attack this ship?"
"First, find out the origins of this ship."
"It seems that it is not directed at us."
Seeing that there were no more clues, the two men left immediately. Naturally, the next investigation was left to their disciples.
……
Gu Mingchuan felt that this strange and powerful Dharma image master had no hostility towards him, so he did not resist. Of course, he could not resist.
This person gave him a stronger feeling than the Xuanming Sect's magic image just now.
However, he did not let down his guard and pretended to be seriously injured, keeping his heart on edge. If the situation was not right, he would immediately switch to the big trumpet.
Although he didn't know what the consequences would be after releasing the "Buddha Lord", it was better than being killed by someone.
About half an hour later, he finally surfaced, flew to the shore, and was put on a luxurious carriage.
It was not known whether the man did it intentionally or unintentionally, but he placed the two women on either side of him, Gong Miaomiao on the left and Shangguan Yu on the right, hugging them on both sides.
The three of them were unable to move or speak, lying on their backs, unable even to look at each other.
The carriage moved forward, and from the noise outside, more and more people and cars came, and then they entered the city gate.
Gu Mingchuan heard the coachman and the guard at the city gate say the three words "Tianxialou" and let them pass.
Could it be that this person is the owner of Tianxia Building?
Didn’t he say that he swore to never step out of Tianxia Tower for the rest of his life?
When he was in Minglong City, he had heard of the great name of Tianxia Tower and the legendary owner Yan Qing who loved to support young people.
There are many legends about the owner of this building. One of them is that he swore a vow never to leave Tianxia Building.
Another thing is that this host loves to help young people. Over the past few decades, he has taught countless young people. On the Heavenly Ranking alone, there are several people who have received his guidance, including Shi Asan, who is ranked third in the world.
