Chapter 28 Showdown

"Zuo Qingcang! What are you doing?" Looking at the dagger coming out from under his neck, the old man was startled and turned his body back, but found that a hand was pressing on his shoulder, and a huge force made him unable to move.

Zuo Qingcang's expression was as cold as ice, and he just pressed the old man's neck with a dagger, and even bloodshot lines were printed out.

"Just have some questions to ask you"

The old man struggled and said, "What are you talking about? Let me go!"

Zuo Qingcang's hands were as motionless as a machine, and he said slowly: "I have seen people who have lived alone for many years and will not be like you."

"There is no text on the mural, but you can infer the existence of the Mirage Sect and the Star Moving Yi Su array."

"The secret of the Nansheng Gate is recorded in Yunren's words, and you happen to be able to write this kind of words."

"You stole the corpse of the dwarf spirit for decades, but when I was caught when I was practicing, we had to go deep into the ground."

"In the maze of the eternal lights, it was also the last reminder of the eternal lights that I cracked the illusion array."

"One, one by one, is a coincidence, but if it can be strung together, do you think it will be a coincidence?"

"You are familiar with this ancient tomb and know the mechanism here, but you are pushing me from beginning to end, causing the fact that I came here. You must be trying to make me do something."

Every time Zuo Qingcang said something, the old man's face changed. When Zuo Qingcang finished speaking, a series of cold sweat had already left on his forehead, but he still shook his head stubbornly and kept saying: "No, you said it wrongly, these are all coincidences! I don't know this place at all. I have never come to the deepest part of the ancient tomb, and I don't want to use you." He seemed to have been wronged and kept defending.

Originally, according to Zuo Qingcang's judgment, the old man had been vain and imprisoning him for the first time. From the time he appeared, he deliberately concealed his identity, age, and the past, and kept guiding him into the deepest part of the ancient tomb.

So he chose to start the battle before he was about to arrive at the coffin and force him to find out the real secret of the ancient tomb.

"I'm sorry, although you saved me, if you don't explain my questions clearly, I will not let you go." Zuo Qingcang's hand slowly moved down the old man's shoulder.

"There is one thing I haven't told you."

"After I penetrated the innate energy of the four tips and trunks, I had already left the ancient tomb from the tree hole while you were sleeping every day."

"How is that possible?!"

Before the old man finished speaking, Zuo Qingcang tightly clamped the old man's pulse door with one hand, and reached out to press the old man towards the ground. He saw him sitting behind the old man's waist with his legs.

The whole process was like flowing water. With Zuo Qingcang's current strength and skills, the old man was crushed to the ground without any resistance. As for the dwarf corpses on his back, they were all thrown to the ground by Zuo Qingcang at some point.

The dagger in his hand slashed across the old man's back like a poisonous snake spitting a letter. Then Zuo Qingcang inserted the dagger into the ground at the tip of the old man's nose, and then pressed the other person's head and said slowly: "How could I only believe the one-sided words of a stranger? I went out to confirm whether the entire island was shrouded in the so-called Star Movement and Easy Su array."

"It's a pity that there is no so-called star-moving and easy-to-scene formation at all. I created a raft to go out to sea, and I didn't feel any power affecting me at all, so I didn't let me leave."

Although the old man was crushed to the ground, he was still struggling: "Impossible, there are all monsters outside, including giant elephants and yin girls. How did you escape!"

Zuo Qingcang naturally would not seduce monsters with the corpse of the dwarf spirit. Every time he took advantage of the old man's sleeping time, it took nearly several weeks to confirm the habits of the Yin Girl again and again, remembering the terrain in the tree hole a little bit, and how to wrap the body with the mud of the tree roots. Then, relying on the explosive power obtained by practicing the true martial arts, he held his breath and sneaked out, etc., to tell the old man about these things.

Because every time he goes out, in order not to let the old man discover it, he has to fight to return to the ancient tomb within two hours. The risk he takes is not even under the danger of traveling through the eternal light maze later. Even now he dares not say that every time he goes out, he is 100% safe.

He just exaggeratedly: "You don't have to worry about why you go out. In short, I can enter and exit the ancient tomb at will now. The so-called Star Moving Yi Su array does not exist at all, or it has long been invalid. If you want to leave, I can leave at any time. As long as you tell your hidden secret, I can take you with you."

"The Star Moving Yisu Formation is really gone?" The old man was excited: "Then we can leave immediately! Why are you still pressing me? I have no secret to you. What you said is really a coincidence. I saved you, don't you believe me?"

Feeling the pulse of the other person on the finger, Zuo Qingcang's eyes were still staring at the other person's eyes. He was using his own experience and the psychological knowledge he had learned before torture to determine whether the other person was lying.

‘No lie seems to be...’

‘Is it really a coincidence?’

‘The Star Yisu Formation did not disappear, but looking at his appearance, I didn’t seem to notice that I was lying to him.’

The old man under him shook his body and shouted, "You haven't let me go yet! Zuo Qingcang, I tell you, you have wronged me at all! I have never said a lie from beginning to end. If I lied to you, I wouldn't die a bad death!"

"If I really know everything, why would I take so many risks? I just came down and turned off all the formations and Taoist techniques by myself, and left me!"

Zuo Qingcang frowned, and he began to hesitate in his heart. Of course, it was not hesitation whether he suspected that he was wrong. Instead, he was hesitant to immediately stun the old man, remove this unstable factor and then solve the last puzzle in the ancient tomb alone, or tie the other party up, and then check the coffin of the Mirage Sect by himself.

The hesitation process took almost less than a second, and when Zuo Qingcang decided to tie the old man up with a rope, a change occurred.

That was the moment when the old man looked at Zuo Qingcang, and the two looked at each other. Then, just as the old man blinked, Zuo Qingcang immediately reacted, then raised his head and closed his eyes.

But his movement was still too slow compared to blinking.

‘Creating fire in a blink of an eye? He has no time to absorb spiritual power during this period. He should have no spiritual power to perform Taoist magic anymore.’

A hot feeling came from outside his eyelids. It was a Taoist technique called blinking and making fire. A hot hot stream ignited directly on his eyelids. Zuo Qingcang groaned, and the dagger in his hand had stabbed hard at the old man's vest.

The dagger directly slashed into the old man's back, and with Zuo Qingcang's stirring, it made a puffing sound. He barely opened his eyes, and tears were flowing out of his eyes. He could only vaguely see that the old man under him seemed to have been dyed red by blood.

However, because of the old man's struggle, he did not stab the other party in the heart.

And in the blur of tears, the old man's voice came to Zuo Qingcang's ears. Although the voice was the same, it had a unique indifference and loneliness:

"I have told you that flame is the closest power in heaven and earth to spiritual power. It can even be said to be a kind of spiritual power. It is also the most easily absorbed and utilized power.

Therefore, Taoist priests who practice flame Taoism are the fastest to improve and absorb spiritual power the fastest.”

If Zuo Qingcang could see the old man's face clearly at this time, he would find that the other person's expression and temperament had changed tremendously, just like a different person, a huge malice emerged from it.

‘Because light and heat are a radiation relationship, is it absorbed very quickly?

Then, after a short moment approaching the magma terrain, he absorbed the heat here?’ While thinking about this in his mind, Zuo Qingcang took action again without hesitation.
