Chapter 502: Zhongyuan (4)
"Master Tianshi, what does this mean?"
"Chen Lie" suddenly got up from the ground, looking angry, "Are you doubting me?"
Zhang Tianshi said slowly: "Didn't Daoist Fellow Chen just say that you were ambushed by Sect Leader Lin and lost all your power?"
"The Tianshi Dao has a technique that may help you repair it."
Li Shuanghua's eyes lit up: "Yes, the Wuji Fuyang Gong of the Tianshi Dao may be able to repair your Chiyang Divine Art!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present was envious.
Wuji Fuyang Gong is the secret of Tianshi Dao that is not passed on. It is of great benefit to those who practice masculine exercises.
It can not only repair damaged meridians and Dantian, but also harmonize the violent Yang energy, allowing it to flow throughout the body like spring breeze and rain.
It is said that if one practices this skill to a deep level, the masculine internal force can be endlessly generated, retaining the original strength while adding a bit of roundness. It can be called the "life-extending pill" for practitioners of masculine skills.
Precisely because of this, this technique has always been regarded as a treasure by the Tianshi Dao, and non-core disciples would never be able to get a glimpse of it. Tianshi Zhang actually proposed to use it to repair the Chiyang Divine Art for Chen Lie. This is truly a rare opportunity!
"Chen Lie" secretly groaned. If he allowed Zhang Tianshi to explore his internal breath, his hidden secrets would be exposed!
He slowly stood up and said proudly: "I am a member of the Lushan Sect in life and a ghost of the Lushan Sect in death. How can I switch to practicing other sects' skills just to restore my power?"
"Master Tianshi, I appreciate your kindness. Please forgive me."
As soon as these words came out, Qiu Mingzi praised: "Fellow Daoist Chen's character and integrity are truly a role model for our generation!"
At this moment, Jiang Li, who had been watching silently, suddenly burst out laughing.
"Are you unwilling, or are you afraid?"
She smiled like a flower, with a mocking smile in her eyes, and asked word by word, "Master Xuanling?"
Her clear and pleasant voice sounded like a wake-up call to Chen Lie!
Lin Xuan suddenly took out his staff and pointed it at "Chen Lie", his eyes blazing with anger: "It turned out to be you! Xuan Ling, old thief, return my brother's life to me!"
Zhang Tianshi's face suddenly changed and he gave a secret look. Zhang Bosong understood and quietly left the main hall.
Everyone was also stunned by Jiang Li's call.
Master Xuanling?
What does Prince Jing'an mean by this?
Isn’t Master Xuanling lying in that box?
"Chen Lie" tried his best to suppress the panic in his heart and pretended to be puzzled: "Your Majesty, what do you mean? Isn't Xuanling Zhenren here?"
He pointed to the wooden box that still stood in the center of the main hall.
"Substitute Gu." Jiang Li smiled slightly, "You can deceive others, but you can't deceive me."
Everyone's expression changed.
"Substitute Gu?" Li Shuanghua looked puzzled. "Your Highness, do you mean that Fellow Daoist Chen has been infected with a substitute Gu?"
"Substitute Gu, as the name suggests, replaces something with your own body." Jiang Li chuckled.
"The person standing in front of us now is both Chen Lie and not Chen Lie."
"In other words, the shell is Chen Lie's shell, but the core inside is the soul of Xuan Ling Zhenren!"
Those present were the leaders of various Taoist sects, all masters of metaphysics. After Jiang Li said this, everyone understood.
This is a strategy of "escaping from the shell"!
Xuan Ling Zhenren used an evil formation to plot against the leaders of several major Taoist sects, but failed and fled. He was then wanted by the Tianshi Sect. It can be said that he cut himself off from the Taoist sect in the Central Plains.
He actually came up with such a vicious plan, abandoned his own body, and snatched Chen Lie's body!
If he could successfully obtain Minshan and become the head of Lushan Sect, no one would know that the head of Lushan Sect is actually the evil cultivator Xuan Ling!
What’s even more ridiculous is that he actually used his own body to prove his innocence!
If his plan succeeds, the merit of killing the evil cultivator Xuan Ling will be enough for the Tianshi Dao to treat him as a guest of honor, and for all Taoists in the world to regard him as a role model!
When everyone thought of this, they all gasped in surprise. What a perfect plan!
Li Shuanghua, who was originally standing on "Chen Lie's" side, also looked at him in horror and involuntarily took a few steps back.
“Chen Lie” laughed loudly towards the sky: “Hahahaha…”
"Ridiculous!" Chen Lie paused to laugh, his face twisted, with an expression of righteous indignation, "If you want to accuse someone, you can always find a pretext."
"What kind of substitute Gu is this? I've never heard of it! Prince Jing'an, you are lying. Do you have any evidence?"
Xie Changan stood up suddenly. Jiang Li held him down with his hand and smiled: "As for the evidence, I have it."
She took out a jade flute from her sleeve, put it to her lips and played it softly.
The sound of the flute was ethereal and had a strange rhythm. Everyone was intoxicated by it and felt as if they were floating in the air, as if their souls were about to leave their bodies...
not good!
Wujiuzi bit his tongue hard, and the pain woke him up from the sound of the flute.
At this moment, there was a "thump" sound, and the sound of a heavy body falling to the ground instantly freed the leaders from the seductive flute sound.
When everyone looked closely, they saw that the person lying on the ground was "Chen Lie"!
"Bugs!" Li Shuanghua suddenly screamed.
Everyone saw a small blood-red insect quickly crawling out of the nostril of "Chen Lie" who was lying on the ground.
At this time, "Chen Lie" had his eyes closed and fainted on the ground, obviously unconscious.
After the insect crawled out, it made a "buzzing" sound, spread its wings, and tried to fly away.
It happened in a flash. Xie Changan flicked his finger and a stream of air hit the insect. With a "puff" sound, the insect instantly turned into a ball of blood foam.
Everyone clearly heard a scream, and then the "Chen Lie" on the ground kicked his legs and died instantly!
"Junior Brother Chen!" Lin Xuan cried out in sorrow.
His junior fellow apprentice Chen Lie died completely this time!
All the leaders were stunned.
Jiang Li's flute music continued. Then there was another "thump" and the Quanzhen Sect's leader Qiu Mingzi unexpectedly fell to the ground, spitting blood!
"Fellow Daoist Qiu Mingzi! What's wrong with you?" Li Shuanghua screamed.
At this moment, she felt a sharp pain in her heart and suddenly grabbed her clothes at her chest.
At the same time, Wujiuzi also looked painful. He fell to the ground, gasping for breath.
The sudden change shocked the other leaders and they all retreated.
Seeing this, Jiang Li paused playing the flute and called out, "Brother Changan!"
Xie Changan flew up and appeared beside Wujiuzi in a flash. He pressed his right hand hard on his forehead and his spiritual consciousness entered instantly.
A poisonous insect was running wildly in Wujiuzi's body. Xie Changan's powerful spiritual sense caught up with it, and with a "swish", the poisonous insect was killed instantly.
Wujiuzi only felt that the heart-wrenching pain disappeared in an instant. His face turned pale and he sat on the ground gasping for breath.
Xie Changan rushed to Li Shuanghua again and did the same thing.
The severe pain disappeared, Li Shuanghua gasped, sat up from the ground, and looked grateful.
How could she not know at this moment that someone had planted a poisonous insect in her body, and it was Prince Jing'an and Duke Dingguo who saved her!
Xie Changan rushed to Qiu Mingzi again, only to see that he was bleeding from all seven orifices and had already died!
Xie Changan looked at Jiang Li and shook his head. The poisonous insect in this man's body had exploded. The insect was highly poisonous. Qiu Mingzi had already died of the poisoning and there was no way to save him.
Jiang Li sighed regretfully. The poisonous insect in Qiu Mingzi's body should not be a substitute poisonous insect, but a mother-child poisonous insect. Nan Xi realized that the plan had failed, so he ordered the child poisonous insect to self-destruct.
Presumably he himself would not show up.
I wonder if the Tianji Camp has fought against him?
Jiang Li frowned and was about to contact the immortals through the contract, but Li Shuanghua and Wu Jiuzi had already recovered, stood up from the ground and bowed deeply to them.
"Thank you, Your Highness, for helping me and saving my life!" Li Shuanghua was extremely grateful.
Wu Jiuzi was also grateful and shed tears: "Thank you, my Lord, for saving my life!"
"I wonder who is trying to murder us?"
Lin Xuan was squatting beside Chen Lie's body, closing his wide-open eyes. Hearing this, he stood up and gritted his teeth and said, "It is Nan Xi who claimed to be the leader of the Nine Lotus Sect!"
"During the last battle in the Ten Thousand Mountains, he not only planted poisonous insects in our bodies, but also sucked the blood of thirty-four Taoist disciples!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was shocked.
Li Shuanghua and Wu Jiuzi were shocked. It turned out that the thirty-four disciples who disappeared in the Shiwanda Mountains all met with accidents?
"Fellow Daoist Lin, are all those disciples dead?"
Li Shuanghua grabbed Lin Xuan and asked anxiously, "What happened?"
Lin Xuan then narrated what had happened one by one.
How he went to the Shiwan Mountains to ask the fox fairy to introduce him to the Prince of Jing'an, and how the Prince of Jing'an and the Ghost Doctor Valley's Master Shen arrived and took him with them to perform autopsies on the thirty-four disciples...
"After inspection by Valley Master Shen, all the blood in those disciples' bodies was sucked out, and their necks all had marks of being pierced by insect mouthparts!"
