Rules of Heaven - C7

When they arrived at the entrance of the cave, an unusual feeling gushed out from Ding Hong’s heart. That abnormal feeling was as if something of his was about to disappear. Ding Hong stood inside the cave and looked outside. It was quiet outside, and the sky was a little dark. He must have stayed in the Heaven’s Sage Stone for a long time. It was just that the outside of the cave was too quiet, as if it was deliberately made by a human.

Shadowless Tower suddenly said, “There are 45 crossbows lying in ambush outside. The moment you show your head, I’ll let you die without even being able to close your eyes!”

Ding Hong’s heart skipped a beat. He asked, “Why did they want to kill me?”

Ding Hong pondered and said, “Then doesn’t that mean that my grandfather is currently in great danger? Senior, can you bring me out of this place? ”

Shadowless Tower replied, “The Tao technique I’ve learnt my whole life is just a piece of fur. I used that tiny bit of Tao technique to fix this Shadowless Curtain, but I could only trap a few people at the same time. “There are too many people outside. I can’t help you.”

Ding Hong’s heart sank. Dark Shadow Tower had actually said that they were unable to help him leave this place. Could it be that they would have to wait here for his grandfather to be killed? Just as he was thinking about what to do, Shadowless Tower suddenly said, “I can’t save you, but I didn’t say you can’t save yourself!”

Ding Hong was stunned and asked, “What?”

Shadow Tower replied, “I’ve also read about Fuxi’s arm bones in the records of the Heavenly Palace. What Dao enlightenment from the Heaven Sage Stone? That was just a beautiful cover. It was unknown whether it was real or not, and the reason why everyone was fighting over the Celestial Stone was because of Fuxi’s arm bone! It can be said that the Fuxi Handbone is a powerful magic treasure! ”

Ding Hong subconsciously looked at his finger and thought: Could it be that this finger has become the most invincible magical equipment in novels?

“Calm down,” said Shadowless Tower. “Use your right hand to draw a horizontal line in the air. Then, you’ll know how to use Fuxi’s arm bone!”

After hearing what he said, Ding Hong tried to calm down. He used his hand to gently draw a line in the air. A curve rotated in the air, slowly forming a picture of Yin and Yang in front of him. When Ding Hong saw this, his heart stirred. He opened his hand and the Yin-Yang Image immediately glowed brightly. After a moment, it expanded with the wind and slowly pushed forward.

“Now, let’s go!”

After Ding Hong heard this, he did not hesitate and exerted strength into his legs. He fiercely rushed forward and used his right hand to block the Yin-Yang Image as he rapidly ran forward. As for Ding Hong, he was thinking about another question. If this Yin Yang diagram doesn’t work, then I will die young …

As the Yin-Yang Image moved, its range became increasingly large. By the time it exited the cave, it was already twenty feet long and wide. When Ding Hong revealed his head, a sky full of crossbow bolts instantly shot over from the distant weeds and the top of the slope. However, those crossbow bolts seemed to have met with sand after they hit the Yin-Yang diagram, and they were all pushed down to the ground. At this time, Shadow Tower suddenly came out from behind Ding Hong. After a few rounds back and forth, they only heard a few screams before the number of crossbow bolts aimed at Ding Hong decreased by more than half.

Ding Hong’s heart jumped with joy as he blocked the crossbow arrow. He also thought that Dark Shadow Tower would help him, so he paid special attention to where he was hiding. In the end, Ding Hong found out that the Dark Shadow Tower came out from his shadow! He could not help but feel a sense of uneasiness in his heart, thinking that Daoist Immortal techniques were really mystical. Ding Hong’s thoughts did not last long before Dark Shadow Tower returned to his back. The arrows that were shooting at Ding Hong, however, were all gone.

Shadowless Tower said, “Use your heart to put this thing away!”

Ding Hong naturally knew that he was talking about the Yin-Yang Image. When he heard the words of the Dark Shadow Tower, with a thought, the Yin-Yang Image instantly turned into a gust of clear wind and dispersed. Ding Hong didn’t stay for long. He wanted to return to the Bai Clan to check if anything had happened to his grandfather. Looking around, he found a few horses. It should have been left behind by the person who ambushed them. Riding on the horse, they would gallop on their way.

Entering the area where the previous area was busy, he found that the aristocratic families’ disciples were everywhere. Ding Hong also happened to see the unintentional appearance of a group of one to two hundred people running towards the cave. Seeing this scene, Ding Hong’s heart sank. He knew that something had happened. It was not a good idea to ride on horseback. He looked at the sky and saw that it was already getting dark. Ding Hong then abandoned his horse, jumped on the roof, and began to walk back and forth between the roof and the attic. When he thought back to yesterday when Ding Tian had left his room, and it was already night, Ding Tian would naturally go back to his room.

Thinking of this, Ding Hong, who was hiding left and right in the Bai residence, finally arrived at the place where he stayed yesterday. Ding Hong hid behind the fake mountain and looked at the two houses. Then he was surprised to find that the room that Ding Tiancheng lived in was lit. Ding Hong’s eyes flashed as he thought: Could it be that both senior and I have guessed wrongly? Just some other person trying to assassinate me? Senior will only help me when I’m in real danger. I still have to rely on myself during this time.

Ding Hong looked around and found no one watching, so he decided to go inside the house to take a look. Ding Hong was so frightened that he hurriedly returned to the fake mountain. It turned out that he hadn’t eaten for a whole day and a half, and his stomach was still empty even now. With a frown, he did not care too much and walked to the door. He put a hole in the window and looked inside. There was a light on in the room, and a man was sleeping on the bed, half covered by a quilt. Ding Hong pondered for a long time. Finally, he gently opened the door and walked in.

The person on the bed seemed to be sleeping soundly, and didn’t notice that someone had entered the room. Ding Hong walked to the middle and did not move forward. This was because he discovered that the person on the bed was obviously a woman. Furthermore, it was an undressed woman. From the half of her back that was revealed under the blanket, he could tell that she was a woman.

Ding Hong had a feeling that he had fallen into a trap, but how that feeling came about was unclear. At this moment, the woman lying on the bed suddenly woke up and moved a little. However, she soon discovered that she was not wearing any clothes. She immediately became alarmed and wrapped her body in a blanket as she let out a scream.

Ding Hong took a glance and saw that it was actually a white feather. When Bai Yu saw him, he was already in a cold mood. When he saw Ding Hong here, he couldn’t help but become anxious and cry out, “Someone come quickly, someone come quickly!” Following that, a flame suddenly lit up outside the door. White City appeared at the door with a large group of servants carrying torches.

White City’s underlings hurriedly acknowledged after hearing that. They all took out the same crossbow arrows that they had used to ambush Ding Hong. Ding Hong’s face paled. He didn’t know how to escape. Suddenly, a gust of black wind blew him away, breaking through the roof and heading towards a distant place.

After Bai Cheng saw it, he gritted his teeth and said, “It’s this Shadowless Tower again. It always spoils my good fortune! “Hmph, let’s see if the little one can run away. If the old one can run away too!” He then rushed to Bai Yu, “Ah Er, are you alright?”

Bai Yu cried, “Daddy, he, he …”

Bai Cheng coldly snorted, “I will kill him to vent your anger!”

Bai Yu cried, but didn’t say anything. Ding Hong didn’t know how fast Shadowless Tower was. He could only feel the wind in the surroundings brushing against his face like a knife, causing him to be unable to open his eyes for a long time.

After a while, Ding Hong turned around and was brought to a remote alley by Dark Shadow Tower to stop.

Ding Hong calmed himself down and looked at the man in black in front of him. He anxiously asked, “Senior, can you help me find my grandfather’s whereabouts?”

Dark Shadow Tower looked at Ding Hong and said, “If they dare treat you like this, I’m afraid your grandfather will only be in trouble. Even if you find them, what benefits will you gain?”

Ding Hong clenched his fist and gritted his teeth as he said, “Even if I can’t get any benefits, I will still go! My grandfather had raised me since I was little. He was the person who doted on me the most, and he was also my last family member in this world. I cannot lose Grandfather! ”

Dark Shadow Tower also looked at Ding Hong. Suddenly, he took out a small steel needle and placed it in his mouth. Ding Hong then heard a high-pitched sound, which spread far away like the sound of mosquitoes.

Not long after, a black shadow approached from the sky. Ding Hong took a closer look and saw that it was a black eagle. The eagle held a rolled up piece of paper in its mouth, recording something. With a wave of his hand, the eagle flew onto the arm of the tower. Shadowless Tower went to unroll the paper, and with a wave of his hand, the eagle returned along the same path as before, as if it had never appeared before.

Shadow Tower opened the paper and read it for a few moments. Then, he tossed it to Ding Hong and asked, “Are you still going to look for your grandfather?”

Ding Hong took the roll of paper and saw that it read: Ding Tian Chou, besieged by people who are sixty feet underground and unable to leave. After seeing this, Ding Hong naturally did not doubt Dark Shadow Tower’s ability. He tightened his grip on the rolled up paper and asked, “Why did my grandfather suddenly run there?”

Shadowless Tower continued, “A few years ago, your grandfather found a heavily injured Blue Flaming Beast on the way here, so he wanted to imprison it for future use. Maybe today is the day he is going there, and the few great families of Chu Qi suddenly attacked, causing him to be completely unprepared, which is why he is in such a sorry state. ”

Ding Hong suddenly asked, “Senior, didn’t you help my grandfather? Why didn’t you go and save him?”

“In the past, your grandfather had saved our lives, so each of us promised to do one thing for him. And he didn’t ask us to save him in times of trouble. ”

Ding Hong was stunned. Suddenly, he recalled that Ding Tiancheng had sent the top martial arts cultivator, Shadow Tower, to protect his grandson, but he didn’t need him to protect him. A warm feeling flashed across his heart.

At this moment, Shadowless Tower suddenly spoke, “But this time, I can make an exception and save him.”

Ding Hong did not understand, but immediately said happily, “Then Senior, let’s go now.”

Without wasting any time on nonsense, he dragged Ding Hong into the air, turned into a black wind, and flew away. Within the black wind, Shadow Tower looked at Ding Hong, and a deep sadness appeared in its heart. It was reluctant to part as it said, “Child, this may be the last time I will help you!”

Shadowless Tower’s speed was extremely fast, it was just like a shadow of the dark night. In Ding Hong’s eyes, the house below seemed to have become one with the water. His eyes were blurry and he could not see anything clearly.

After a while, the tower stopped right in front of the cave, “There’s a secret passage at the end of this cave leading to the volcano.” Without waiting for Ding Hong’s reaction, he turned into a gust of violent wind and was sucked in. Not long later, Shadowless Tower brought Ding Hong to the end of the cave. At the end of the hall, there were no longer any biographies or techniques, but instead, there were a lot of rocks that had yet to be smoothed out.

Ding Hong looked around but didn’t find the secret passage mentioned by Shadow Tower. He couldn’t help but ask, “Then where is the secret passageway?”

After Shadowless Tower surveyed his surroundings, he suddenly grabbed Ding Hong’s shoulder and shouted, “Open!”

Just as the voice of Dark Shadow Tower fell, Ding Hong felt that the ground beneath his feet had become empty. The originally uneven passage had actually cracked open a long crack in the blink of an eye, allowing Ding Hong and Dark Shadow Tower to fall down.

At the moment when he was about to hit the ground, his figure moved. Ding Hong felt as if there was a strong force dragging him down and he firmly landed on the ground.

As soon as he arrived, Ding Hong immediately felt waves of heat wave coming over. It was just like sitting next to a stove, with the flames slowly burning his face. Not long after, Ding Hong’s body was covered in sweat. Ding Hong frowned and looked forward. What he saw was a stretch of land in front of him, and beneath it was a large area of bubbling magma. From time to time, “puchi puchi” sounds of burning could be heard.

Shadowless Tower replied, “There is a platform at the bottom of this cliff. It is the place where the Azure Fire Beast was imprisoned. I wonder if your grandfather is trapped at that place.”

When Ding Hong heard this, he thought: If his own light was so hot above, and it was close to magma below, wouldn’t it be even hotter?

Dark Shadow Tower didn’t say anything. They only stared at Ding Hong before suddenly walking up to him and pressing a hand on his shoulder. He spoke out, “Ding Hong, after today, I will no longer be able to protect you. With your Fuxi Handicap, it will be hard to determine your future path. I hope that you will do your best! ” After which, he pushed Ding Hong aside and shouted, “Wandering Wind!”

Ding Hong’s body became light and he felt himself floating up. He jumped over the cliff and flew straight down to a hidden place at the bottom of the cliff. Seeing this, Ding Hong could not help but exclaim, “Senior …”

Seeing Ding Hong leave, Dark Shadow Tower heaved a sigh of relief. Then, he turned around and coldly snorted, “Who is it? Sneakily hiding there and thinking that I don’t know? ”

“Hahaha …” A burst of laughter suddenly came from a stone wall. Soon after, a middle-aged man in scholarly garb walked out from the stone wall. The middle-aged man carried a long sword on his back and said in a clear voice, “Senior brother Xu, it has been many years since we last met. You are still as elegant as ever! Junior Brother, I am indeed inferior! ”

Shadowless Tower’s expression was dark as he asked, “Song Qiu?”

The middle-aged man laughed: “I didn’t think that you would still remember me. It’s really not easy.”

Shadowless Tower chuckled. “What, you got bored staying in the Heavenly Palace, so you came down to get some fresh air?”

The middle-aged man called Song Qiu snorted, and said: “Senior brother is also a wise man, with our talent, staying in the Heavenly Palace would be better than staying with ordinary people! Why would I have to suffer the ridicule of my fellow apprentices in the Heavenly Palace! ” Song Qiu rolled his eyes and laughed, “Senior Brother, why don’t you join hands with me and take that kid’s Fuxi hand bone? If you go overseas to find a barren mountain, you might even be able to cultivate to an otherworldly Rogue Immortal!”

Shadowless Tower replied coldly, “Senior Brother, I’m old, but I don’t have that kind of interest anymore.”

Song Qiu looked at Shadowless Tower and laughed coldly. Then, he drew his sword and said, “Then I would naturally like to ask if senior’s cultivation has improved in the past ten years!” After he finished speaking, he didn’t give Dark Shadow Tower any time to react. With a wave of his sword, a green sword light flew towards him.

Shadowless Tower seemed to have known that Song Qiu would do this, so they didn’t panic and dodged the sword light. Then, he clasped his hands together and glared at Zhang Xuan. Immediately, a strong gust of wind blew towards Song Qiu. Song Qiu did not hesitate. He thrust the sword into the ground, and with a flip of his hand, the ground instantly rose up twenty feet into the air and formed a stone wall in front of him.

Seeing that Song Qiu had dodged the spell, Shadow Tower leaped thirty feet over the wall and punched at Song Qiu who was hiding behind the stone wall.

Song Qiu’s face paled when he saw this scene. Even though other people only knew that Dark Shadow Tower was good at using their movement techniques to kill people, as his junior brother, he knew that his senior brother was good at using brute force! At the time of the disciple selection, although Dark Shadow Tower’s talent was poor, that elder had only taken it in because of his unique physique.

Song Qiu did not dare to break the seal. He turned his body to the side and rolled his sword to the side. Following that, he heard a loud bang. A huge crater had been made where he was by the Dark Shadow Tower. Song Qiu broke out in a cold sweat. Glancing at Shadowless Tower, he gritted his teeth and took out a red talisman from his bosom. “You old fogey! I’ll use this last bug talisman, but I don’t believe I can’t kill you!” He bit his finger and dripped a few drops of blood on the amulet. Seeing that Shadowless Tower was getting up and heading over here, he threw it with all his might and shouted, “Explode!”

With a rumbling sound, the rune broke and many black strips appeared. Not long after, the figure of Shadow Tower was buried.

Song Qiu sighed and said to himself, “You old bastard, it took your father’s precious blood worm to kill you! Hmph, let’s see how you’ll protect that kid now. Once I obtain the Fuxi Finger Bone, I’ll be able to take a stroll as well! “Hahahaha!”

At this moment, the black bugs that were piled up suddenly jumped out. A blurry figure staggered among them and rushed towards Song Qiu!

Song Qiu was shocked and involuntarily retreated. However, at this moment, a withered hand suddenly reached out from the ground and grabbed his leg, preventing him from moving. Song Qiu’s face paled as he hastily drew his sword to chop at his hands. Unexpectedly, a longer hand reached out from the ground and grabbed his wrist. Song Qiu’s face turned pale and he shouted, “Mantra of the underworld! You actually learned the Dark Mantra! “You …” Before he could finish his sentence, the blurry figure had already appeared in front of him. He stretched out his hands and fiercely stabbed them into Song Qiu’s heart. Soon after, the blurry figure ferociously said: “We shall be buried together!” Song Qiu kept trying to retreat, but he couldn’t move. He looked at the figure in terror and said, “I don’t want it, I don’t want it!” Suddenly, rotting hands emerged from the ground and wrapped around the figure and Song Qiu, pulling both of them into the deepest parts of the ground.

After everything calmed down, there was only a huge hole left. The only sound that could be heard was the ‘puchi puchi’ sound of the lava, as if nothing had happened. All that was left to be seen was a bunch of squirming black beetles.
