Cloud-Dispelling Palm?
better than nothing!
'extract!'
Without any hesitation, he extracted the Cloud-Dispelling Palm technique first.
After a while.
Xiao Bieli shook his head and followed in the direction the Qin family had left.
Half a day has passed,
As the Qin family continued their journey, the deep mountains of Manzhou suddenly opened up into a bright and open space.
A lake, several kilometers in diameter, appeared before everyone's eyes.
"There's no miasma here!"
"Could this be our destination?"
"Damn it, there's nothing here but poisonous insects and ferocious beasts. How am I supposed to survive?"
"..."
Those who came here with Qin Xu were all direct descendants of the Qin family.
At that moment, they all looked unhappy.
Although the Qin family couldn't compare to the Nine Schools and Six Gangs, they were still a prominent force in the martial arts world. They used to live a life of luxury and comfort in the outside world, but now they had to stay in this godforsaken place.
"Shut up!"
Qin Xu spoke coldly.
The crowd by the lake fell silent instantly.
"Let's go to the island!"
At Qin Xu's command, several of Qin's trusted men pulled out the simple bamboo rafts hidden by the lake and put them into the lake.
The group quickly arrived on the island.
The island is small, with a few simple thatched huts.
Looking at the thatched hut, all the direct descendants of the Qin family looked constipated. As direct descendants of the Qin family, when had they ever lived in such a simple place?
But because of Qin Xu's authority in the Qin family, they didn't dare to say a word.
"You will stay on the island!"
"You're not allowed to go anywhere!"
Qin Xu glanced at the younger generation on the island, then turned to the two third-grade Grandmasters of the Qin family and said:
"Come with me and take a look!"
"Take the sword with you!"
The two Grandmasters of the Qin family showed excitement on their faces and nodded repeatedly.
Although they had been here once before
That time, they failed to break through the gate to the treasure land, but today is different. They have brought a divine weapon, and with it in hand, they will surely be able to break through the gate to the treasure land.
Qin Xu led the two away from the island, with Xiao Bieli following closely behind.
I witnessed the three of them rushing directly into the cliffside waterfall by the lake.
"Is the treasure of the previous dynasty hidden inside the cliff waterfall by the lake?"
"Water Curtain Cave?"
Xiao Bieli shook his head and silently disappeared into the waterfall.
The cliff behind the waterfall was indeed a hidden paradise, with a winding path leading directly to a cave halfway up the cliff.
Qin Xu and his two companions continued onward.
Xiao Bieli followed at a distance that was neither too close nor too far behind.
Not far into the cave, the space suddenly expanded, revealing traces of excavation everywhere, as if it had been carved out by human hands.
At the very center of the cave's end, a massive stone gate sits.
The stone gate appeared to be cast in gold and bronze, lying there quietly. Qin Xu stood before the stone gate.
Xiao Bieli strode towards the stone gate.
"hehe!"
"As expected, there were dogs from the Eastern Depot following us!"
A cold laugh came from behind Xiao Bieli.
The two Grandmasters of the Qin family had somehow gotten behind Xiao Bieli and blocked his path.
Qin Xu, who was standing in front of the stone gate, turned his head, placed one hand on the stone gate, and looked at Xiao Bieli.
Although the cave was dimly lit, Qin Xu's eyes still showed suspicion the moment he saw Xiao Bieli's face clearly.
The person in front of me seems familiar.
But I can't remember it right now.
Qin Xu had been in seclusion for many years and had only seen Xiao Bieli's portrait once. Moreover, Xiao Bieli had now reached the first rank, and his temperament was quite different from that in the portrait. It was normal that Qin Xu did not remember him at the moment.
If Xiao Bieli were facing two Grandmasters from the Qin family, they would certainly recognize his identity immediately.
Qin Xu looked at Xiao Bieli and spoke calmly:
"Throughout the journey, I always felt like someone was following me in the dark, but I couldn't be sure!"
"It seems my intuition was right!"
"The East Depot's director won't show up... Are you Fei Tao, the most mysterious of the three deputy commanders of the East Depot, known as 'Bloody Hand'?"
Upon hearing the name Fei Tao, both Grandmasters of the Qin family felt a chill run down their spines.
Legend has it that besides the first-rank supervisor of the Eastern Depot, "Bloody Hand" Fei Tao was the most skilled in martial arts and was also ruthless in his actions.
Although this place contains countless traps set up by the Qin family over the past hundreds of years, and according to their ancestor, these traps are powerful enough to kill even a peak Celestial Realm expert, they have never seen them with their own eyes and are therefore unsure of their abilities!
"Bloody Hand Fei Tao?" Xiao Bieli shook his head, looking around:
"I just killed someone from the Eastern Depot. I don't know if it was Fei Tao you're talking about."
"Is this the location of the treasure from the previous dynasty?"
"The mechanism is indeed ingenious... However, if I may be frank, this level of mechanism might be enough to deal with someone like you who has just entered the second rank, but it would be difficult to kill that Eastern Depot expert who was following behind you before!"
"If he comes here, you will all die!"
Xiao Bieli walked around the cave as if no one else was there.
Whoosh whoosh!
It's unclear what mechanism was triggered, but countless gleaming arrows shot out from all directions, heading straight for Xiao Bieli.
But Xiao Bieli dodged all the arrows as if he were strolling in a garden.
'Bang bang bang!'
Several sounds of bowstrings vibrating rang out.
Four crossbow bolts, each as thick as a thigh, suddenly shot out from the surrounding walls at incredible speed, like four bolts of lightning, arriving in an instant.
Xiao Bieli used his finger as a knife and made a light cut.
Chi!
The four crossbow bolts were instantly cut in half at the waist and fell to the ground.
"Suzaku Crossbow!"
"The powerful crossbows designed by the previous dynasty's army to deal with third-rank Grandmasters are so powerful that even a third-rank Grandmaster could be hit if he is not careful. Apart from the imperial court, only the remnants of the previous dynasty have some of them."
“Even if this isn’t the treasure trove of the previous dynasty, you still have connections to it.”
When he obtained those two treasure maps, he had consulted some ancient books about the previous dynasty with Feng Si Niang, including records of the Vermilion Bird Crossbow.
As Xiao Bieli spoke, he walked towards Qin Xu.
'Tengteng vine!'
Several more sounds of bowstrings vibrating rang out.
In this confined space, none of the crossbow bolts could get within three zhang of Xiao Bieli.
Just as Xiao Bieli was only five zhang away from Qin Xu, Qin Xu could no longer hold back and made a sudden attack!
boom!
The sword case in his hand suddenly exploded open.
Clang!
A dazzling sword light suddenly appeared, and a terrifying sword intent enveloped Xiao Bieli.
In an instant, it transformed into a sword beam tens of meters long, sweeping out horizontally.
The mechanisms here represent the culmination of generations of effort by the Qin family, yet they cannot even stop this person's advance. He fears that if he doesn't act soon, he might lose the courage to do so altogether.
Seeing Qin Xu unleash a sword strike with a divine weapon
The two grandmasters of the Qin family breathed a sigh of relief. Such a powerful sword strike, in such a narrow place, and at such close range, meant that the expert from the Eastern Depot had no chance of dodging it.
Faced with this sword strike, Xiao Bieli showed no joy or sorrow, and simply threw a light punch.
boom!--!
A terrifying fist-like aura pierced through the air.
In an instant, the sword light was torn apart and smashed into Qin Xu's body.
boom!
Qin Xu's body exploded with a bang, turning into a blood mist that stained the golden-bronze gate behind him red.
