The world-defying soldier king

Xishan Taoist Temple!

A drizzle fell quietly!

The group of people looked at Cao Zheng's body with a sense of desolation in their hearts.

Wu Feng Wuyi knelt on the ground and cried silently.

If Cao Zheng hadn't taken them in and taught them martial arts a few years ago, they would have starved to death on the streets now.

Sun Zhengyi and the others looked at the corpse with mixed feelings in their hearts, and they couldn't help but cast their eyes on Qi Tian.

Qi Tian glanced at the three of them, shook his head and said, "Do you want to ask me why I didn't help?"

Seeing that the three of them looked unhappy and did not dare to speak, Qi Tian smiled and said: "A man's heart is broken and he wants to die. So what if he is saved!"

"Besides, today the two of us have a fair fight. It will determine victory or defeat, as well as life and death. If I take action, not to mention breaking the rules of martial arts, even if I save him, his martial arts will be useless from now on. With his character, even if He himself can't accept it, and I'm afraid he will still seek death in the end, so why bother."

"As for, I hurt Zhao Feng because he didn't respect martial arts!"

When the three of them heard this, what the gentleman said was not unreasonable. The higher the level of martial arts, the more important they are to honor and disgrace. If the three of them ended up like this today, they would be like what the gentleman said. Even if they survive, they will become Cripples, they definitely can't stand it.

"gentlemen…"

The three of them wanted to speak, but Qi Tian stopped them and looked at Wu Feng Wuyi who was kneeling on the ground.

"You two hate me?"

Hearing this, both of them shook their heads and said, "No, this is the alliance leader's own decision. We don't hate you."

"Then you should follow Taoist Master Ouyang from now on and let him teach you martial arts!"

After Qi Tian finished speaking, he picked up Cao Zheng's body and walked towards the back mountain. Originally, they wanted to follow, but Qi Tian refused.

The white color of fish belly slowly appeared in the east, and a hazy drizzle fell on the new grave.

Qi Tian has been standing in front of the grave all night.

"Be quiet while you are alive, and be heard silently after death; everything will be in vain after you leave, and you will not see the same people in all nine states; the Wolf King sets the sun in the north, don't forget to tell the old man!"

As for who told Cao Zheng about Qi Tian's identity, Qi Tian had already guessed something about it.

"But when did he come to Jinling, and with his identity, how could there be no movement at all?"

There are also the two sentences that Cao Zheng mentioned in his ears before the war. The first sentence is that Qi Tian cannot take action, and the second sentence only has two words: "God Realm."

Qi Tian didn't need to think about these two words. He knew that they were divided into realms of martial arts, and this divine realm was naturally superior to the master.

But why not let Qi Tian take action? Is it because of the people in the dark? That is impossible. With Cao Zheng's cultivation, Wu Ming and others will definitely not be discovered.

Could it be that someone asked Cao Zheng to tell him not to take action, but why, Qi Tian couldn't figure it out.

In fact, it doesn't matter whether you think about it or not. He will have a battle in three days. By then, maybe everyone will know half of Qi Tian's identity.

More importantly, three auras were clearly sensed yesterday. There is no doubt that one is Wu Ming, but who the other two could be, and their target is not at all the battle last night. It seems to be targeting Qitian himself. of.

Moreover, the cultivation level of the two of them was not low, and one of them even made Qi Tian feel lingering fear. At least it was not comparable to that of Wu Ming. It was conceivable that this person had a high level of cultivation, and he might still be a cultivator.

"Master."

With a soft cry, Taoist Ouyang came behind Qi Tian.

"Are they all gone?"

"Lao Sun went back and said he had something to do. Qiu He also went back and said he wanted to sell the boxing gym and follow the master from now on. Those two boys fell asleep!"

"Okay, in that case, let's arrange it in the Taoist temple first!"

In fact, after hearing this, Qi Tian still felt a little warm in his heart. He paused and said: "Ask Mr. Sun and the others to prepare as much medicinal materials as possible for refining the Qi Pill. I want to refine the pill. There is a cliff on the cliff behind your mountain. Cave, have you been there?”

Taoist priest Ouyang immediately shook his head and said: "The cliff on the back mountain is a thousand feet long and extremely steep. In the past, ordinary people would not dare to go down."

"Then what was the master's level of cultivation back then?"

"Also a grandmaster!"

Hearing this, Qi Tian nodded and said, "Then go down now and take a look!"

After saying that, he took the first step and leaped directly to the top of the mountain, arriving at the cliff. The thousand-foot cliff was hundreds of meters deep.

"Go down."

After Qi Tian finished speaking, he descended alone and dived to more than 100 meters before stopping. When Taoist Priest Ouyang saw this, his true energy exploded from the soles of his feet, and he also landed next to Qi Tian.

Sure enough, there was a square cave in front of him. The walls of the cave entrance were smooth and there was not even a foothold. If he hadn't been a martial arts master, he really wouldn't have been able to discover it, let alone enter the cave.

After Qi Tian buried Cao Zheng last night, he used his whole spiritual consciousness to explore the back mountain of the Western Mountain, and found that there was something strange here. His spiritual consciousness could only sense the entrance of the cave, but could not penetrate into the cave.

This is still the case even when he is standing at the entrance of the cave. Doesn't this make Qi Tian feel weird?

Qi Tian took the lead and stepped into the cave, followed by Taoist Priest Ouyang.

There was still a little light when we first entered the cave, but within twenty steps the surroundings were completely dark. With a flick of Qi Tian's finger, a flame was suspended in the air and illuminated the surrounding area.

It didn't matter. The two of them were immediately surprised that this was an undiscovered cave.

The stone table, stone bed, and rotten futon clearly indicated that someone had lived here.

Qi Tian saw eight pillars of fire all around, and a flame flew over each of them, making the cave instantly bright.

The entire cave interior is as big as two Taoist temple halls.

The two looked around.

Qi Tian first walked to the stone bed. The futon on the stone bed had been weathered into disarray. There was also a bowl on the stone table, which should have been used for eating.

But just when he was about to pick it up and look at it, he found that he couldn't pick up the bowl at all.

"Master!"

At this time, Taoist Master Ouyang suddenly shouted.

Qi Tian hurried over and saw the word "Ziyang" engraved on a stone tablet. Judging from Taoist Priest Ouyang's expression, he was probably the other party's forefather.

"Master, why didn't you tell me there was a cave here?" Taoist Master Ouyang looked at Qi Tian and asked in confusion.

Qi Tian shrugged, "You don't know, so how could I know?" After looking around, there was nothing surprising. The strangest thing was the stone bowl.

"You stand behind me?"

Qi Tian said suddenly, returned to the stone table, and said: "This stone bowl is definitely a trap, please be careful."

After Qi Tian finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and turned it gently, and it turned. The only good thing is that the bowl can only turn to one side, so there should be no dangerous mechanism.

When it was spinning again, there was a rumbling sound. Qi Tian looked up and saw a stone door appearing opposite the two people. Even Qi Tian had not noticed it just now, mainly because the door was too hidden.

"Master, this...!"

Taoist Master Ouyang was a little surprised and said: "It can't be the treasure left by the ancestors."

Seeing the excitement on Taoist Master Ouyang's face, Qi Tian rolled his eyes and thought to himself, if your master has a treasure hidden here, then your master is really bad. He is just a disciple like you, and he won't leave any treasure to you. .

Looking at the dark inner cave, Qi Tian flicked his finger, and the cave became bright at the same time.

Qi Tian frowned, and Taoist Priest Ouyang was even more shocked!

Because what appeared in front of them was a white skeleton sitting cross-legged on a stone couch with its back to the entrance of the cave.

Qi Tian stepped into the cave and looked around, but didn't seem to find anything unusual.

When the two came to the corpse, Qi Tian looked at Taoist Ouyang, his eyes full of doubts.

Taoist Master Ouyang shook his head and said: "This is not the ancestor. The bones of the ancestor are buried in Longshan Cemetery."

Then who is this corpse?

Qi Tian reached out and touched the dust on the stone couch, then looked at the degree of weathering of the bones, and said, "It looks like he has been dead for at least a hundred years. Could he be an ancestor of the Taoist temple?"

But this was directly rejected by Taoist Master Ouyang, because the Xishan Taoist Temple was built under his predecessor.

"Presumably this person is also a martial artist, and his cultivation must be quite good!"

Taoist Master Ouyang couldn't help but sigh and said: "Throughout the ages, I don't know how many ancestors have pursued martial arts all their lives, but what can they do after pursuing it? In the end, they will become bones in the grave!"

Seeing Taoist Priest Ouyang's appearance, Qi Tian shook his head, and then with a wave of his hand, the stone couch and the dust on the bones were swept away.

But this action made Taoist Master Ouyang open his eyes instantly, because after the dust was blown away, several lines of writing appeared on the stone couch in front of the bones.

"Master!"

Qi Tian naturally saw it too. After walking onto the stone couch, he looked at it carefully, but the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became.

These words turned out to be methods of cultivation. It was not until I saw the last two sentences that I knew who this white skeleton was.

As expected, there are still cultivators in this world, but what makes Qitian regretful is that the person he met was a white skeleton. His cultivation reached the late stage of foundation building during his lifetime, but his body and body had been dead for more than a hundred years.

A hundred years is not far, but it is not close either!

Even with Qitian's foundation cultivation, he can live for more than two hundred years. A hundred years later, Qitian will only be in middle age.

"The great road is silent and formless. It exists above the innate world. It is born in Sumeru. It is quiet and long-lasting. It is emptied of the Tao and reaches the heart of heaven. It turns Qi into essence. It is called the golden elixir!"

"Master, what's up here?"

Seeing Taoist Master Ouyang look puzzled after reading each sentence, Qitian smiled and said: "You are right, this is indeed a cultivation method."

Upon hearing that it was a cultivation method, Taoist Master Ouyang was immediately overjoyed and seemed to want to remember this cultivation method.

Qi Tian shook his head and said: "Whether it is martial arts or cultivation, in the end, they all lead to the same goal through different paths. If you cannot see through this, if you fall into addiction, it will be difficult for you to break through in martial arts."

Hearing this, Taoist Master Ouyang was stunned for a moment, Qi Tian's words completely touched his heart.

In fact, he seemed to have vaguely felt something when he was studying the way of alchemy many years ago, and the Taoist books also recorded the way of golden elixir. The only regret was that there was no way to practice it.

Qitian's words seemed to break the knot deep in his heart. Just like what the master said, no matter whether it is martial arts or training, in the end, it is still a person.

What's more, his martial arts journey almost stopped him at the level of a half-step master. If it weren't for his master, he wouldn't have achieved what he has achieved today, let alone practice one level.

"Master!"

Taoist priest Ouyang bowed deeply to Qitian!

"It's okay if you understand, get up!"

Qi Tian said something and put his fingers together with his sword to directly destroy the cultivation techniques on the stone couch.

And Qitian was not trying to scare Taoist Priest Ouyang. These words were what the mysterious old man in the prison had warned him just like today when he taught Qitian the cultivation method "Reincarnation Jue".

Besides, what was on the stone couch was a golden elixir realm cultivation formula. It should have been written by this "Master Yunxu" who wanted to break through the golden elixir, but he failed in the end.

Qitian looked at it and finally took the bones to the cliff for burial.

"gentlemen"

When Qi Tian brought Taoist priest Ouyang to the Taoist temple, Qiu He had already taken care of everything and was waiting for Qi Tian.

"Well, these two little guys are quite qualified. You should teach them well and let me know when the medicinal materials are ready. I will go back first!"
