Volume 4: Azure Dragon Changes the World Chapter 210: The Water Retreats and the Fight Resumes
Just say that five days have passed in the blink of an eye.
"Sir, the water has receded."
A leader of the Qinglong Society was reporting to Bai Yujing with great respect.
Not only has the water receded, but the entrance to Lengxiang Garden has also been reopened by craftsmen, and a way out has reappeared. This time, Bai Yujing is fully confident of winning.
He was currently sitting on a large chair with a soft blanket beneath him. He sat high up, looking down at the underground palace after the water had receded.
What a mess.
Among the ruins, broken tiles and broken wood, there are many corpses that are swollen, white, rotten and full of maggots, as well as many fish and shrimps that are still struggling and jumping.
The strong stench of decay mixed with the fishy smell lingered in the air, making people feel sick.
Bai Yujing's expression remained unchanged. He crossed his legs, held the sword, and covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief. His narrow and cunning eyes did not blink as he stared at the entrance of the underground palace, as if he would not allow any mistakes. A smile could not be hidden in his eyes either.
After all, beneath this dirty mud and among countless corpses, there are gold, silver, treasures, wealth and glory that ordinary people can hardly imagine in their entire lives, as well as magical skills that are enough to make them invincible in the world.
Any one of them is enough to cause bloodshed in the martial arts world and bring about a devastating catastrophe, and now all of these things will belong to him.
In this battle, Zhu Si died, Gongzi Yu died in battle, Shangguan Xiaoxian and Li Muchan also died. The three most powerful and terrifying leaders in the world all died here. Only he was still alive and became the biggest winner.
If something like this happened to someone else, they would have laughed wildly and unrestrainedly, and would have laughed out loud in their dreams at night.
But Bai Yujing remained restrained, because it was too early to draw any conclusions before he saw the bodies of those people with his own eyes.
But he was still smiling, with a disdainful sneer. What if these people were still alive?
Eight days had already passed. If Shangguan Xiaoxian and Li Muchan had already escaped, they should have switched from defense to offense and turned against him. However, the "World Alliance" and the "Money Gang" hadn't made a single move, which could only mean one thing: they were still inside the underground palace.
In this way, it is nothing more than death and life.
It would be fine if I died, and it would be all over.
If he is not dead, he has not eaten or drunk anything for several days, and he is seriously injured. Even if he is not dead, he is probably about to die. How much trouble can he cause?
You should know that the Qinglong Society has set up a tight net around this underground palace, both on the ground and underground. If you don't die, you will be in great trouble.
So, of course Bai Yujing had to laugh.
Not only was he determined to get the gold, silver and treasures below, he also wanted to get the Ming Yu Gong.
How could he let go of such an amazing skill that could rival the Wedding Dress Skill?
But in reality, what Bai Yujing desired most was the "Wu Xiang Divine Art." After all, both the "Jia Yi Divine Art" and the "Ming Yu Divine Art" required years of accumulation and development, with no shortcuts. However, the "Wu Xiang Divine Art" was an exception. Much of the credit for Mu Chan's sudden rise to prominence, aside from his extraordinary wisdom and scheming, was due to this art.
Otherwise, how could Li Muchan have the strength to go against the flow of the Yangtze River and fake his death to escape, and he would not have been qualified to join forces with Gongzi Yu to set up this game. Instead, he should have died early in Jiangnan, at the hands of Gongzi Yu.
So this kung fu is very special. Once you have an epiphany, you will achieve success immediately.
The reason why Li Muchan was able to achieve such success is probably closely related to the Heavenly Buddha Scroll.
After all, one is external and the other is internal. The Heavenly Buddha Scroll is the supreme method of Buddhism, which contains the ultimate mystery of the internal family and the ultimate secret of martial arts. It can be said to be of the same origin as the "Formless Divine Art". They are from the same family, so it is reasonable that they complement each other.
In the past, the Qinglong Society searched all over the martial arts world and had specially searched for several magical skills. Apart from the two magical skills obtained by the Shen family, the whereabouts of the "Wushi Magic Skill" were unknown. It was only known that it was suspected to have been lost in the West. Unexpectedly, it was finally obtained by Li Muchan.
But now he didn't know whether Li Muchan was alive or dead, so he could only put this thought aside for the time being.
"Sir, we can begin now."
Upon hearing the report from his subordinates, Bai Yujing smiled and waved his hand.
Then I saw many members of the Qinglong Society cleaning up the corpses, while another group of people were walking towards the palace that had collapsed for the most part.
The hole in the center of the palace had been sealed, but broken arms and limbs, as well as fragments of the golden coffin, could still be seen everywhere.
This palace is built on earth and rocks, but the long corridor, library and hall behind it are built by hollowing out the ground. Therefore, if you want to reach the deep interior, you must move the rocks away.
Bai Yujing flew down, his body flashed, and he passed everyone and came to the front.
Qiu Xiaolou and others also saw the opportunity to follow.
They now want to see if there are any living people in the underground palace.
Qiu Xiaolou really hoped that Li Muchan was still alive. He hated the former deputy leader of the Demon Cult with a vengeance and wished to cut him into pieces. His hatred was unforgettable.
"Let's start." Bai Yujing ordered.
"yes!"
Suddenly, more than a dozen shirtless strong men came out to take orders.
These people are all masters of external skills, with amazing strength. They can make a name for themselves in the martial arts world, but here they are no different from servants.
Each of these strong men wears a pair of fine steel gloves on their hands, like a hundred-pound hammer with sharp edges. Wherever they pass by, they destroy it with great force. With just the sound of hammering, they can pass through almost unhindered and crush everything in their path.
The pace of advancement is very fast.
A group of people soon walked into the corridor. Looking at the gold, silver and treasures all over the ground, their eyes flickered, as if they didn't notice the rotting and swollen corpses.
There was still water on the ground, and a foul stench was overwhelming, but the smile in Bai Yujing's eyes became even more intense.
"Come in!" he said.
The crowd walked forward step by step and soon arrived at the library where many secret books were hidden.
However, after being soaked by the undercurrent below, the ground was covered with broken pages of books scattered all over the floor, and the ink had seeped out, making it even smellier.
Most of the library collapsed, especially in the ruins where there was a huge stone weighing over ten thousand pounds blocking the door to the hall.
"It seems that this was planned by Gongzi Yu a long time ago. There may be another way."
Seeing that the rock was blocking the entrance, the bearded man sneered, stepped out of the crowd, and with a wave of his hand, he brushed the debris in front of him aside. Then he stood in front of the huge rock, urged the Wedding Dress Magic Skill again, clenched his fist, and a ball of powerful, domineering, and extremely masculine heat gathered in his hand.
"Everyone, step back."
Although he had lost an arm, he had recovered a lot after recuperation over the past few days. At this moment, he used his luck to push the water under his feet in all directions, revealing the soil and rocks underneath.
Then the bearded man gathered his energy into his dantian and punched the huge rock in front of him with his eyes wide open.
But this punch seems to be powerful, fierce and domineering, but there is no movement when it lands, giving people the illusion that it is like a dragonfly skimming the water, and it is withdrawn at the touch of a button, as if it were lifting a heavy object with ease.
The big man threw a punch and immediately retreated.
Suddenly, a "cracking" sound was heard on the huge rock, and a crack seemed to appear out of thin air, then spread outward in an instant, splitting the entire huge rock into two halves.
As soon as the huge rock was opened, the accumulated water in the hall immediately flowed out.
But when he looked at one of the corpses, Bai Yujing suddenly couldn't laugh anymore.
The corpse had a strange face, with a protruding forehead and a drooping chin. Even the hall masters beside him trembled with fear and turned pale. They almost thought they had seen the Emperor Taizu of the current dynasty.
Bai Yujing's eyes flickered as he quickly scanned the remaining corpses. Seeing that none of them were the ones he wanted to see, his face immediately turned cold.
Qiu Xiaolou's eyes also turned gloomy as water. He strode in, his eyes like cold lightning. With a glance around, he quickly discovered the collapsed secret passage under the coffin. He said in a dark tone, "There is a way to survive. They all escaped."
Bai Yujing's grip on the sword kept tightening, and veins bulged on the back of his hand.
However, his expression suddenly changed again, and he looked sideways at the stone wall at the end.
After being soaked in water, a crack in the stone wall was clearly visible, which seemed to be a secret door.
Bai Yujing's eyes flickered, and he said in a deep voice, "Open it!"
Several hall masters stepped forward upon hearing this, ready to explore, but the bearded man's expression suddenly changed drastically, his pupils suddenly contracted, and he shouted sternly: "Be careful, there are people behind the wall, you..."
"boom!"
Before he finished his reminder, he saw that the stone wall suddenly broke free from the constraints of the door hinge mechanism, and rushed straight towards everyone, and then exploded in the air.
Before the several hall masters could scream, they had already turned into two balls of blood mist, their intestines and internal organs spilled out, and they were deader than dead.
"What an amazing palm power, who is it?"
Bai Yujing narrowed his eyes and concentrated.
But in the midst of the chaotic dust, a tall figure with his upper body naked, his black hair loose, and two swords on his waist, strode out.
