Chronicles of Celestial Origins

The moon was bright and the stars were sparse, the magpies were flying high, and the vast expanse of blue lake surface sparkled under the moonlight. Suddenly, a flash of light broke through the water and disappeared, like a short-lived firework.

"Hey, Brother Yang, did you see that bright light just now?" In mid-air, two men were walking with swords, and one of them asked in surprise.

"It seems to be coming from the bottom of the lake over there. Could it be some kind of treasure?" said another person.

The two of them looked at each other, their swords fell straight down, and they rushed into the lake. They went straight to the bottom of the lake, and after descending dozens of feet, a few figures were vaguely visible.

The two were shocked and turned around and fled in a hurry.

Because these people are all Foundation Establishment monks. In the middle of the night, several Foundation Establishment monks gathered under a deep lake in a remote mountainous area. They must be planning something secret. If they were disturbed, there would be consequences. One can imagine.

The two of them discovered the people below, and naturally they had discovered them earlier.

One of the men snorted coldly, turned into a escaping light and caught up with the two of them. There was a flash of light between his hands, and the two of them fell straight down.

"Is it okay? Brother Qin, you have been busy for most of the day and you haven't seen any movement, but you attracted these two people. Fortunately, you are a junior Qi refiner. If the Golden Pill monk passes by, we all have to play. Finished." The man with oily hair and pink face said in a strange tone.

"Hmph, if you think you can break this formation, you can give it a try, why bother chatting endlessly." A skinny man said angrily.

"If I can break this formation, do I still need you? It's because you boasted that Haikou can break this formation that we came all the way here. If it doesn't work, just say so. Don't waste our efforts."

"You..." The skinny man was speechless for a moment.

"Stop arguing, fellow Daoist Qin, can you break this formation?" shouted a tall and burly man.

The skinny man said: "I underestimated the power of this formation. This formation is called Kuishui Formation. It is built under the bottom of the lake. It complements the water potential of the lake and its power is greatly increased. I need to go back and prepare some things before I can break it." array."

The burly man said: "In that case, let's not waste time here. Junior brother Han, you stay here and keep an eye on me to prevent the secret at the bottom of the lake from being discovered. I will help fellow Taoist Qin to find something to break the formation. What do you think?" ?”

Everyone nodded in agreement.

A man with thick eyebrows and big eyes said: "Fellow Daoist Qin, if you need anything, I will help you find it together."

The skinny man said: "To break this formation, we need to isolate the formation from these ten thousand hectares of lakes, otherwise the energy source of the lake water will continue to provide spiritual power to the formation. I need high-level spiritual talismans with the attributes of earth and fire. The more the better. The rest You don’t have to worry about anything.”

The burly man said: "How much do you need? Tell us the number and we will help you get it together."

"At least ten high-level spiritual talismans of the earth and fire systems are needed."

The burly man said: "Fellow Daoist Yin, each of us will take out five cards. What do you think?"

The man with thick eyebrows said: "Five spiritual talismans are no problem, but, fellow Daoist Qin, are you sure you can break this formation? These spiritual talismans are consumables and will be gone after one use."

Everyone looked at him.

The skinny man said: "Don't worry! Although I failed to break the formation just now, I have found the center of the formation and the position of the formation flag. As long as I can temporarily isolate the water potential of this ten thousand hectares of lakes, I will definitely be able to break the formation."

"Okay, without further ado, I'll get ready right away!" the burly man said, and everyone flashed out of the lake and left.

Tang Ning frowned slightly as she looked at the file in her hand. It was sent by an insider disciple of the Corpse Puppet Sect under the pseudonym Grizzly Bear. The file stated that her master and his uncle had been traveling frequently to South China recently, which was very unusual and seemed to be planning something secret.

"Should we let the disciples from the South China Intelligence Point do more research?" Kong Ji said.

Tang Ning said, "Go and summon Fellow Daoist Xu."

"Yes." Kong Ji took the order and left.

Not long after, Xu Qingwan came: "Tang Immortal Envoy, are you looking for me?"

"I'm going out for a trip, and I'll leave the matters at the station to you."

"good."

"By the way, how are things going between you and fellow Daoist Zheng?"

Xu Qingwan smiled bitterly: "I explained it clearly to him. He was a little disappointed at the time. After a few days, someone sent the ribbon again."

"Oh? Do you accept it this time?"

"What else can I do if I don't accept it? Is it really ruined? I thought that I would just return him a high-grade spiritual weapon. Anyway, I can use this ribbon."

It seemed that she was still not determined enough, so Tangning smiled and said nothing.

Zheng Wei's method of stalking may work for some women, but it may not work for Xu Qingwan.

Tang Ning had always felt that she was a very tolerant and determined person. In order to avenge her parents, she lurked in the Xu family for nearly 20 years. It could be said that she suffered all kinds of humiliation, slander and abuse. And who usually talks and laughs calmly, but finally brought down the Xu family with one blow. If such a person is ruthless in his heart, how can he be moved by external things.

He couldn't help but think of the elixir Kesu Lin. When he handed over Wu Datong's relics to Xu Lin, she refused very decisively. At that time, he thought she was ruthless, but now it seems that she is not a great wisdom in dealing with people.

"Nothing else, I'm leaving." Xu Qingwan said and walked out of the room.

Tangning left the intelligence station, turned into a ray of light and headed west.

After walking for a day, I arrived at the border of Qinchuan and came to a remote farmyard. As soon as I landed in the yard, the people in the house were alerted.

The door opened, and a man with a chin and a tiger's neck walked out. When he saw Tang Ning, his expression changed slightly.

Tang Ning waved her hand and threw a token to him. The man took the token, checked his consciousness, and immediately bowed and saluted: "It turns out it's Uncle Tang. Disciple Chu Shidu has met him before."

This is the contact point for Qin Chuan's intelligence. Tangning nodded and said, "You should find a way to contact Grizzly immediately. I want to see him."

"Yes. Disciple, please contact me immediately." Chu Shidu responded, stepped on the flying sword and left.

Three days later, with the moon hanging high in the sky, a figure came with a sword from the top of the mountain.

"Uncle Master, he's here." Chu Shidu said. As soon as he finished speaking, the figure fell down, and his body was unusually tall, taller than the two of them. He had the body of a tiger and the waist of a wolf.

Grizzly Bear's real name is Zhao Jia, originally from Qinchuan. His father was killed by a disciple of the Corpse Puppet Sect. Under the arrangement of Du Yuankai, he joined the Corpse Puppet Sect as an inside disciple. Because of his tall and majestic figure, he was codenamed Grizzly Bear.

"Fellow Daoist Zhao, this is Uncle Tang Ning of our sect. Now, Uncle Du is the head of the intelligence station." Chu Shidu introduced.

"Junior Zhao Jia has met senior Tang." Zhao Jia saluted.

Tang Ning said: "I received intelligence information from you a few days ago, and I came here to ask what is going on? Why does your master from the Corpse Puppet Sect frequently travel to South China? Is it because of the intention of the senior officials of the Corpse Puppet Sect? "

"I really don't know, but I feel that my master's whereabouts are quite strange recently. He just practices hard and rarely leaves the sect. Recently, we have been gathering together frequently to travel to South China. Once I heard him talking to his uncle, "He is in Changliu. "Hu, we have already found someone, and things will definitely work out." I think they must have some agenda for being so mysterious, so I am spreading the news to let you be on guard."

"Who are your master and uncle?"

"The master's name is Xiang Jingxing, and the master's uncle's name is Han Hun. The two worshiped under the name of their master Wang Wenze. Wang Wenze failed to attack the golden elixir, and the two successfully built the foundation. The master built the foundation in the middle stage, and the master's uncle built In the early days of the Ji Dynasty, both of them originally belonged to the Jiangdong Qinchuan faction. After the Corpse Puppet Sect was unified, they became disciples of Deng Xuanmao. "

"About two months ago, my uncle Han Hun came to the cave to look for his master. The two talked secretly for a long time, and left the sect together the next day. After that, they visited the sect frequently, and each time they left for seven or eight days. Fang Hui.”

"One day, I vaguely heard their conversation. They mentioned Dongshan County, Xuanyu County and so on many times. I knew that was the border of South China, so I concluded that they were heading to South China."

Tangning frowned slightly: "Are they still in the Corpse Puppet Sect now?"

Zhao Jiadao: "A few days ago, master and uncle came back again."

"I understand. If there is any new news, I will wait for it in time."

"Nothing else, I'll take my leave, junior."

Tang Ning nodded, and Zhao Jia left with his sword.

Chu Shidu said: "Uncle Master, after hearing what he said, Xiang Jingxing and Han Hun frequently travel to South China. They must have other agendas. I don't know whether it is official or private matters."

Of course they had some agenda, otherwise why would the two foundation-building monks always run to South China when they were full? That was not their territory. What Tang Ning was more worried about was that they went to South China to collude with the local families.

"You continue to keep in touch with him, and if you have any news, send me a message from Xuan Ying immediately.

""yes. "

Tang Ning transformed into a light and left. After walking for a day, she arrived at the border of South China. She came to a Taoist temple and went straight to the main hall.

The Taoist priest in the temple wanted to stop him, but he ignored him and strode forward.

In the hall, a man with a broad forehead and broad face was sitting cross-legged on a futon. Hearing the noise outside, he opened his eyes and shouted: "What are you yelling about?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the palace opened. When the man saw the visitor, his color changed slightly. He dismissed everyone with a wave of his hand, stood up and whispered, "Senior, what are you doing here?"

Tang Ning handed him the token.

The man confirmed his identity and hurriedly saluted: "Junior Xu She has met senior Tang."

"Where is Mu Quanyu? Call him to see me." Tang Ning said

"Mr. Mu Xianwen went out yesterday. I will look for him when he comes back." Xu She said.

"Go!"

"Yes." Xu She said, hurriedly left the hall and stood up with his sword.

The next day, before the sky turned white, Mu Quanyu hurried over and said outside the palace gate: "Disciple Mu Quanyu pays homage to my uncle."

"come in!"

Mu Quanyu pushed open the door and walked in, bowed and saluted: "Unknown master uncle is coming, and the disciples are not welcome."

"Has there been any news from the Yang family's insiders recently?" Tang Ning asked.

"No."

"Inform the intelligence disciples below and ask them to keep a close eye on the big families in South China, especially the Yang family. If there is any abnormal behavior, please send a message to me immediately."

"Yes." Mu Yuquan responded: "Uncle, I wonder what happened?"

"I have received information from the inside of the Demon Sect. Recently, several foundation-building monks have frequently traveled to Dongshan County and Xuanyu County in South China. That is the Yang family's sphere of influence. I suspect that the Yang family has colluded with the Demon Sect."

"Disciple knows."

"Is there a place called Changliu Lake in South China?"

Mu Yuquan said: "Changliu Lake? It is between Dongshan County and Xuanyu County. This lake is quite wide, spanning the two counties."

"Oh?" Tangning frowned slightly.

Such a coincidence, he vaguely felt that he might have judged the wrong direction.

"Have there been any strange happenings or rumors in Changliu Lake recently?"

"The disciples have never heard of it."
