I can upgrade my body

Looking at the wildly rotating pointer, Wu Yu seemed to understand something.

He pulled out the mahogany sword from his back and made a gash in his palm.

The red blood immediately seeped into the blade of the mahogany sword.

"The two realms of Yin and Yang are revealed!"

Wu Yu stimulated the energy in Dantian and poured it into the peach wood sword.

hum~~~

A strange fluctuation permeates the air!

The surrounding scene was filled with strange distorted ripples, as if a mirror had been broken.

A click.

A deserted and gloomy ancient Taoist temple appeared in front of Wu Yu.

At this moment, the sun was setting in the west, and the Taoist temple seemed to be stained with a layer of blood red, becoming more ominous.

The ruins are ruined, abandoned and dilapidated, and the ground is full of rubble and rotten wood.

On the plaque at the entrance of the Taoist temple, only the word "天" is left.

This is the Tianheng Taoist Temple that Wu Yu has left for five years...

"Why... why did it become like this?"

"Where is the master? And where are the uncle and the others? Where have they gone?"

Wu Yu looked at the dilapidated Taoist temple in front of him and found it difficult to accept it.

He took a deep breath, held a peach wood sword, and walked into the Taoist temple.

In the courtyard inside the Taoist temple, there was a large cracked incense burner, and corpses wearing Taoist robes were lying on the ground.

All that was left of these corpses were white bones, and their Taoist robes were in tatters.

Wu Yu stepped forward and opened the sleeves of the Taoist robe containing the corpse.

Inside the sleeve, there were two words embroidered with cinnabar thread, Qingfeng.

"Junior brother..."

Wu Yu looked at the forest-white skeleton with red eyes.

Wu Yu also opened the remaining bones one by one.

They are all his junior brothers and uncles.

He took a deep breath and walked into the Taoist temple hall.

Deep in the hall, where the portrait of the master had been enshrined, only the empty walls remained.

A figure sat cross-legged on the futon, seemingly sitting with his eyes closed.

Wu Yu looked at the familiar figure and fell to his knees with a thud as if struck by lightning.

After a while, he stood up and slowly walked towards the back.

The figure sitting on the futon is also a skeleton.

But Wu Yu could recognize it at a glance.

This figure is Tian Xuanzi, the temple master of the contemporary Tianheng Taoist Temple.

"Master..."

Wu Yu looked at his master's body, unable to suppress his grief, and burst into tears.

"Why... why did it become like this..."

Wu Yu didn't understand why Tianheng Taoist Temple became like this after he had only been away for five years.

He really didn't understand.

Finally, Wu Yu knelt down on his knees and kowtowed respectfully to his master.

thump~

"This is?"

When Wu Yu got up to kowtow, he saw something seemed to be placed under the futon.

He carefully removed the master's skeleton and moved the futon. Sure enough, there were two books underneath.

Wu Yu hurriedly opened the first book.

This is more like an essay or something.

At the beginning, they were all recording trivial matters in life, or insights into the Tao, and the handwriting was beautiful, with clouds of smoke falling off the paper. However, at the end, the style of painting suddenly changed, the handwriting became messy and scrawled, and the recorded things were even more difficult to understand.

Looking at these words, Wu Yu could feel the irritability of his master at that time.

"I have a strong uneasy feeling..."

"Those beings...seem to have discovered us..."

"More than three hundred years later...it was still found..."

"Not only did I have a premonition, even my junior brothers and others felt it..."

"What should I do...I feel like I'm going to die..."

"No! I can't let the inheritance of Tianheng Taoist Temple be cut off in my hands!"

"Wu Yu, you must leave."

"Wu Yu, when you see these records, you must leave quickly."

This essay ends here.

Wu Yu was trembling all over.

He did not expect that the master drove him down the mountain not because of any sect rules, but to protect himself.

And the entire Tianheng Taoist Temple should have been found by the existence mentioned by the master not long after he came down the mountain... and then it became like this.

So what are these existences?

Even the master who turned over the clouds and seas, flew into the sky and escaped from the earth felt so frightened.

I didn't even dare to write down their names.

The second book is a Taoist scripture.

"Supreme Sensation"

Wu Yu recognized that this was the secret cultivation method of Tianheng Taoist Temple, and only the temple owner could practice it.

He put away the Taoist scripture, kowtowed three times to his master respectfully, and then turned and left.

Wu Yu knew that now that he was the only one left in Tianheng Taoist Temple, he could not have any accidents.

Otherwise, there would be no one to avenge Master and others.

He must leave here quickly and not let those beings discover that there are still successors in Tianheng Taoist Temple.

In the end, Wu Yu still doesn't know what those existences are.

After walking out of the Taoist temple, Wu Yu used Taoist magic to cover up the Tianheng Taoist temple again before going down the mountain.

..........

Baijiang City, government office.

Ten days have passed since Li Ji Wenhai was assassinated in Huayue Tower.

But even Luo Sheng, the chief catcher, found no results in his investigation and could not find any clues.

He had investigated everyone who had a grudge against Ji Wenhai, and found nothing suspicious.

This case seems to have reached a dead end.

But how could Ji Luo, who had lost his beloved son, be willing to let his son die inexplicably?

Since Luo Sheng couldn't solve the case, he would use other methods.

That night, inside the Ji Mansion.

Ji Luo stayed alone in the living room, with only an oil lamp accompanying him.

huh~~~

Ji Luo's eyes flashed, and a figure in gray clothes appeared strangely in his eyes.

"Master Ji, long time no see." The man in white said with a smile.

His skin was pale, and under the dim light of the oil lamp, it felt like dead skin.

The ordinary appearance gives people a lifeless feeling.

"Priest Zhong, I invite you here this time because I hope you can find out the murderer of my son." Ji Luo said in a deep voice.

"Haha, if Master Ji had come to me earlier, Luo Sheng, that reckless man, has no use at all except for his strength. It is a waste of time to place your hopes on him." Priest Zhong said with a sneer.

Ji Luo also looked gloomy.

If it wasn't a last resort, he wouldn't want this person to take action.

The main reason is that the identity of Priest Zhong is too sensitive. He is one of the remnants of the Wangling Sect lurking in Baijiang City.

Although he had some contact with the Wangling Sect before, Ji Luo had long since cut off the contact since the government office and Yinghuosi began their bloody purge.

But now seeing that Ji Wenhai's case was about to fall into disrepair, Ji Luo could only take a chance and ask someone from the Wangling Cult to take action.

"When the matter is completed, I will give you one hundred thousand taels." Ji Luo offered the price.

"Money? My Wangling Sect is not short of money at all." Priest Zhong smiled strangely.

"Recently, the government's investigations have become more and more strict. Our followers are constantly being arrested, and even the sacrificial meeting cannot be held. I know that you have many properties in Baijiang City. I wonder how many mansions the Ji family can give away generously?"

In order to avenge Ji Wenzhao, Ji Luo was willing to go all out and gritted his teeth and said: "Okay!"
