The Birth of Tianjiao Chapter 28: The Seven Scars of the Yellow Sand
The golden sand dunes remain as silent as ever under the sun, vast and endless as far as the eye can see.
Dugu Xiaotian is sitting cross-legged on a camel, practicing Hongmeng Zhenjin.
"Huh?" There was a faint sound of camel bells in the wind, and he caught it.
He stopped exercising and looked towards where the ringing sound came from. At the end of the yellow sand, he saw more than a dozen small black dots, which slowly grew larger in his field of vision.
"Then let's end it. It's really troublesome for them to keep following us." Dugu Xiaotian muttered and reined in the camel.
After a while, a dozen Ouchi masters rode camels and arrived ten feet in front of him.
When Liu Hongsheng saw that Dugu Xiaotian did not escape on his camel, but stopped and waited for them, he was shocked and confused for a moment.
"Stop!" he ordered, and everyone reined in the camel after hearing the words. Liu Hongsheng came to Zhang Shouren's camel and asked respectfully, "Master, the criminal stopped here and didn't move. Is there an ambush?"
Zhang Shouren smiled slightly and said, "He thinks there are only a dozen of us and is nothing to be afraid of, so he wants to repel us in one fell swoop! Your courage is commendable!"
"Let's tie up the camel and get ready to do it!"
Liu Hongsheng nodded slightly, "Zhang Qing, tie up the camel and keep an eye on the water bag! The rest of you will work with me to catch the criminal." After that, he got off the camel.
The Jin Yiwei and the masters in the palace got off their camels one after another. Following Liu Hongsheng and Zhang Shouren, they surrounded Dugu Xiaotian.
Dugu Xiaotian also got off the camel and tied the two camels together. He gave a fist to the government officials who came over: "We meet again today, thank you for your hard work!"
Liu Hongsheng shouted angrily, "'Xiaotian', you are the key criminal appointed by the Holy Emperor! Assassinating relatives of the emperor is unacceptable under the national law. Why don't you just surrender and be arrested?"
"It doesn't matter who the emperor or his relatives are, anyone who oppresses the people will be killed without mercy!" Dugu Xiaotian waved the Pingtian Sword in his hand and said proudly.
Hearing this, the Jin Yiwei and the masters inside were silent for a while.
"What a good man!" Zhang Shouren sighed, "I'm Zhang Shouren, little brother, don't blame us for helping the tyrants do evil. If we can't take you back, many of us will be demoted, investigated, and sent to the army!"
Liu Hongsheng shouted, "Do it!" and then waved the saber in his hand to attack. The other twelve masters did not dare to neglect, and they also raised their swords and attacked Dugu Xiaotian. Only Zhang Shouren was still bare-handed.
"Yellow Sand Sword Style!" Dugu Xiao's body spun like a top, and his long sword stroked on the sand. The one-foot space centered on him was filled with golden sand. The people who came up were momentarily stunned.
It is difficult to open my eyes, difficult to breathe, and difficult to walk.
Then he shook his long sword and performed the "Drizzle Sword Style", and streams of thin sword light poured out towards everyone.
In the small space of the sandstorm, the sword light was like silk rain, as if it was everywhere. "Ouch!" screamed several times, and the four Ouchi masters were stabbed by the sword light and fell to the ground.
Dugu Xiaotian didn't kill them painfully, he just stabbed them on the key points of their shoulder blades, and used his internal energy to seal their acupuncture points.
The rest of the people were shocked and hurriedly retreated. Dugu Xiaotian made a slight leap, jumped in front of everyone, and used the "Yellow Sand Sword Style" and "Dry Rain Sword Style". In a moment, he stabbed three more masters.
"Spread in all directions!" Zhang Shouren shouted, and his fists suddenly blasted towards the miniature "sandstorm" surrounding Xiaotian.
With a loud "bang", the sand and dust around Dugu Xiaotian's body was blown away. Zhang Shouren followed up with the move "Iron Fist Breaking the Mountain", and struck Dugu Xiaotian's face with his left fist.
"Well done!" Dugu Xiaotian's left fist used the "horse step single whip" of Luohan Quan to meet Zhang Shouren's fist.
"Boom"! The two fists intersected, and Dugu Xiaotian felt seven different kinds of strength coming from Zhang Shouren's fist, superimposed layer by layer, like the Yangtze River. He did not dare to neglect, and quickly used all his strength to use Hongmeng Jin to resist.
"Hey, seven injuries combined into one"! Zhang Shouren shouted, his right arm swelled up in vain, and his right fist used the unique skill of Kongtong Feilong Fist, "Flying the Flag in the Wind", and hit Dugu Xiaotian on the chest.
Dugu Xiaotian threw the Pingtian Sword to the ground and met it with Tai Chi with his right palm "like a seal".
"Bang!" Zhang Shouren's right fist hit Xiaotian's palm. Dugu Xiaotian's right palm was half closed, and then he shouted "shock". Hongmeng energy flowed in his body, directing the force of his left fist to his right palm, and the two forces combined.
At one point, he pushed Zhang Shouren's right fist.
With a loud "bang", Zhang Shouren stepped back five steps in a row and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Dugu Xiaotian took advantage of his strength and twisted around, unleashed a series of Tai Chi palms, and knocked Liu Hongsheng and another Jinyiwei master to the ground with a "snap".
The remaining two masters quickly stood side by side to protect Liu Hongsheng who fell to the ground.
"'Xiao Tian's' martial arts is unrivaled in the world, I admire you!" Zhang Shouren said weakly, his face as golden as paper. Just now he did not hesitate to damage the meridians and forcibly performed the unique skill of Seven Injuries Fist "Seven Injuries in One", but unexpectedly he was beaten by Xiao Tian
The shock from the palm force came back, and the injury was very serious.
"Today our skills are inferior to others, so we admit defeat and let 'Xiaotian' deal with it!" Zhang Shouren wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, nodded to the remaining two people, and said with emotion.
Dugu Xiaotian picked up the Pingtian Sword on the ground and put the sword into the scabbard behind his back. He smiled brightly and said, "Senior, please go back to the pass and recuperate!"
After that, he got on the camel and continued westward.
Zhang Shouren looked at Dugu Xiaotian's retreating figure, dumbfounded and speechless for a long time.
The remaining two masters lifted up the fallen people and unlocked the blocked acupuncture points. Liu Hongsheng jumped up and shouted: "We can't let him run away. I don't want to go to the border to join the army, let's chase him!"
There was silence on the sand, and Liu Hongsheng saw a kind of "contempt" in the eyes of others. He hesitated, lowered his head, and said no more.
Zhang Shouren bowed to the west and said, "Hero, I was wrong. Go back to the capital, resign and return home!"
The Ice Jade Fairy's face was purple. She carefully took out a wooden box and placed it on the table.
"Princess, this time we obtained the rare treasure 'Night Pearl' from Hou Yuan Bao. With its help, we finally found our sect's most precious treasure." When the Bingyu Fairy said this, she shuddered twice.
"Master, don't be anxious. I'll use my kung fu to heal your injuries first." Zhu Cuixian said softly, placing her palms on the back of the Ice Jade Fairy and slowly inputting her internal energy.
After a while, Fairy Bingyu's expression improved a little.
She continued: "Three hundred years ago, the first generation sect leader of the Ice Sect obtained this "Ten Thousand Years Ice Marrow" treasure. Through it, the sect masters of all generations have been able to cultivate the true power of ice with twice the result with half the effort.
A hundred years ago, the sixth-generation sect leader died under the Arctic Ocean, carrying this ten thousand-year-old ice marrow with him.
Although we know the general direction, we do not have a treasure that can continuously illuminate things under the icy ocean water, so we have never been able to find the remains of the sixth generation sect master.
This time using the Luminous Pearl, we sacrificed 9 disciples and finally picked up the body of the sixth generation sect leader and took out the "Ten Thousand Years Ice Marrow".
After saying that, the Ice Jade Fairy gently opened the wooden box and saw an exquisite jade bottle wrapped in fur, lying quietly in the box.
"Princess, you must remember that you must not touch the jade bottle directly with your hands. You can only hold it through the fur, use the true power of ice, and guide the cold air of the "ten thousand years of ice marrow" in the jade bottle into the body for practice."
Zhu Cuixian's eyes turned red, and she bowed and saluted, "Thank you, Master!"
The Ice Jade Fairy smiled happily, "With the princess's innate qualifications, she will definitely absorb more power of the 'Ten Thousand Years Ice Marrow' than previous sect leaders. When the time comes, the princess will be invincible in the world, and I, the ice sect general, will be famous all over the world!"
