Chapter 222 A chance encounter!
"The Xuanwu True Skill is indeed powerful!"
"However, now that my Blade Domain is perfected and I have reached the level of a physical Arhat, I have no shortage of killing methods. I only need to undergo two more tribulations of lightning!"
Xiao Bieli looked into the distance and spoke softly:
"Consume all experience to upgrade the War God's Record!"
boom!
In an instant, countless experiences from cultivating the War God's Manual flooded into Xiao Bieli's mind.
Xiao Bieli's aura was steadily rising, and his understanding of martial arts was also deepening!
After half an incense stick,
【God of War Illustrated Guide (51/100)】
[Xuanwu True Skill (8/100)]
Xiao Bieli stood up, sensing the changes within his body, and murmured:
"A 15% increase in proficiency has strengthened my primordial spirit and physical body by 20%!"
"Even my proficiency with the Xuanwu True Skill has increased by three percent, and that's without me deliberately practicing it!"
"With my current martial arts skills, passing the eighth tribulation shouldn't be a problem, but passing it perfectly will be quite difficult!"
"The benefits of a perfect tribulation are almost as great as consuming the Dragon Essence, so I still need to grind experience!"
"My proficiency with the War God's Manual has reached around 60, which should be enough to help me survive the eighth tribulation!"
"The poster seems to have fled towards the far north. In that case... let's clear the Rotten Chess Temple dungeon first!"
"No rush, let's clear all the smaller dungeons first, and then go find Emperor Qian!"
At this thought, Xiao Bieli's figure appeared in front of Ren Tiancang.
“Xiao Bieli!” Yu Jinxiu’s eyes lit up with joy when she saw Xiao Bieli.
The other experts from Jiangshan Pavilion immediately knelt down.
"I am deeply grateful to Young Hero Xiao for saving my life!"
"Thank you very much, Young Master Xiao!"
"..."
Xiao Bieli simply nodded, looked at Ren Tiancang, and said:
"I'm going to Lankesi Temple to see if there's any news about your senior brother."
"You all better hide yourselves well. If the imperial court intervenes again, I'm afraid I won't be able to get here in time!"
Yu Jinxiu hurriedly said:
"Lanke Temple is not simple; you should be careful!"
Ren Tiancang remained silent.
Given Xiao Bieli's strength in killing an eighth-level Thunder Tribulation expert with a single strike, even if there were experts in the Rotten Chess Temple, they might not be able to stop him.
Xiao Bieli nodded and turned to leave.
Watching Xiao Bieli's departing figure, Ren Tiancang shook his head and said:
"This time, the entire landscape of the Central Plains martial arts world will probably change!"
……
Arctic ice sheet.
Four figures slowly walked towards the direction of Lanke Temple.
Three men and one woman
Apart from the woman, everyone else was carrying weapons, clearly indicating they were martial arts practitioners.
They moved extremely slowly, slower than ordinary people could walk on the ice field.
If there were any experts from Posuo Prefecture here, they would certainly be able to recognize their identities.
The leaders of the Joyful Sect are Lin Baijiao, the Grand Elder of the Corpse-Driving Sect Mu Hongyun, the Sect Master of the Demonic Appearance Sect Zhao Hanyun, and the Grand Elder of the Profound Yin Sect Han Cang.
"Damn it, the Heavenly Demon Cult Leader has disappeared. That old bastard Hu Yuan is bullying us by taking advantage of his power, and he actually made us go to that Rotten Ke Temple. He deserves to die!" Mu Hongyun spat and stood still.
They are people of the demonic path; going to a Buddhist ancestral temple like Lanke Temple is just courting death, isn't it?
"Heh!" Zhao Hanyun said coldly, "That old bastard suspects that the Heavenly Demon Sect Master is in the Rotten Chess Temple, and since he doesn't dare to come himself, he can only send us here to die!"
Lin Baijiao frowned slightly and said coquettishly, "Who told us that all the top disciples of the Eight Demonic Sects have the methods of the Heavenly Demon Sect? We have no choice but to listen!"
"Sigh... But that old man said that none of the experts at Lankesi Temple are here, and they won't attack us. I don't know if that's true."
Han Cang sighed and said:
"I heard that even some experts from the Earth Sect and the Heaven Sect have come to this far north. I wonder if it's true."
"That old bastard Hu Yuan's words are not to be trusted. Those monks at Lankesi Temple have always been at odds with us. Going there would be certain death!"
Mu Hongyun shouted:
"You'll die whether you go or not!"
"Tell me, how do you want us to die?"
Everyone remained silent.
Such a major event has occurred in the martial arts world, yet the leader of the Heavenly Demon Cult has not shown up. The entire Heavenly Demon Cult is now under the control of its Grand Elder, Hu Yuan.
Hu Yuan is ruthless. If they don't obey, the Heavenly Demon Sect's methods will kick in, and their fate will probably not be good.
But the Rotten Chess Temple is teeming with masters.
If those few members of the demonic path go there and are seen as provoking others, and are suppressed on the spot, that would be a disaster!
That's why they walk so slowly, just to buy themselves some time.
"You're saying the Demon Lord has disappeared?"
Just then, a voice reached the ears of the four.
"Who?"
"..."
All four were top-tier experts in the demonic path, and they turned around almost simultaneously.
After seeing the person's face clearly, a chill ran up from his tailbone, and his whole body felt cold.
The Demon Blade Xiao Bieli!
What bad luck! To run into this jinx in the far north?
They feared this wicked star more than the Rotten Chess Temple.
Wherever this man goes, bloodshed follows.
Especially Lin Baijiao and Mu Hongyun, whose Joyful Sect and Corpse-Driving Sect have a great grudge against Xiao Bieli. Their Corpse-Driving Sect leader died at Xiao Bieli's hands overseas.
"Young Master Xiao... Young Hero Xiao!" Lin Baijiao forced a smile onto her charming face and said in a sweet voice:
"What brings you to the far north?"
"The Heavenly Demon Cult Master has indeed disappeared and hasn't shown up for many years. Now the entire Heavenly Demon Cult is under the control of that old bastard Hu Yuan."
With a 'thud,' Mu Hongyun knelt down on the ground, his back soaked with sweat.
"Young Master Xiao, I, Mu Hongyun, have never intended to be your enemy!"
"When Ximen Wuhen invited me to fight against the Blood-Clad Tower, I didn't go to Qinzhou."
"Please, please, show mercy..."
Before Mu Hongyun could finish speaking, Xiao Bieli raised her hand to interrupt him, saying calmly:
"Stop saying such useless things!"
"What's the deal with the Heavenly Demon Cult Leader?"
"How many people from the Heavenly Sect and Earthly Sect have come?"
Mu Hongyun quickly said:
"The Heavenly Demon Lord has not shown his face for twenty years. This time, you caused such a commotion in Qinzhou that we all went to see him, only to find that his secluded place was deserted."
"The Heavenly Demon Sect has now fallen into Hu Yuan's hands."
"There are quite a few experts from the Heavenly Sect and the Earthly Sect who have come to Lanke Temple; there are several hundred of them!"
Lin Baijiao also hurriedly said:
"I have long admired Young Hero Xiao. Today, upon seeing you, I am completely captivated by your charisma. My Joyful Sect is willing to submit to you and serve you to raze Rotten Axe Temple to the ground!"
Upon hearing this, Han Cang and Zhao Hanyun realized what was happening and immediately knelt down, saying:
"I'm willing to do the hard work of dogs and horses!"
Xiao Bieli glanced at the four people and said calmly:
"Since the people from the Heavenly Sect and the Earthly Sect have all gathered at Rotten Axe Temple, let's just wipe them out together!"
"Just going through it like that would definitely lack class!"
"Go find a sedan chair and stay by my side to carry it for me from now on!"
Once the Rotten Chess Temple is destroyed, you should gain a lot of experience.
Four officials of the highest rank carrying the sedan chair—that should be considered quite prestigious!
