Walking by the Abyss on Thin Ice

Chapter 118: Magic arts

As soon as Xue Qingfu finished speaking, a voice suddenly laughed and said, "Since Saint Xue has already come, why rush to go back?"

Xue Qingfu's face became serious, he turned around and whispered, "Su Shizi, the old immortal has arrived. Do you remember what I told you on the carriage?"

Su Yun turned around and said, "The Saint said he cannot guarantee my safety."

Xue Qingfu looked ahead and smiled, "I can tell you that this is true. Facing the old immortal of the Tong family, I may not be able to protect you completely. You need to be prepared."

Su Yun's heart sank. He saw that the geography of Tian Shi Yuan had changed since they arrived, and it was no longer the same as what they saw before.

He couldn't find the way back now!

His greatest strength was his memory, and he could even say it was photographic!

But the change in geography made his memory useless.

A short and stout old man was walking towards them. The old man had a wide robe, white eyebrows and hair, and wore all white clothes, even his shoes were white.

There was a strange halo behind his head, and in the halo, two Bi Fang birds were swimming, flying side by side.

He seemed to exude a holy white light, giving people a feeling of immortality, as if he was an immortal who had walked out of a painting!

Su Yun looked at the old immortal of the Tong family. He had also heard of this legendary old immortal of the Tong family, who lived in the capital and had an extraordinary status. Even the Emperor of the capital respected him greatly.

Unexpectedly, the old immortal of the Tong family returned to Shuofang quietly during the Lunar New Year!

Xue Qingfu bowed and said, "Greetings to Senior Tong. When I was a child, my grandfather was still a saint, and the old immortal looked the same as he does now. Later, when my father became a saint, the old immortal was still the same. When I was nearly seventy, the old immortal still looked the same. Senior Tong is truly an immortal who lives forever. No wonder the Emperor respects you so much."

Su Yun's heart trembled. "The old immortal of the Tong family killed two saints of the Xue family? Doesn't that mean he is at least over a hundred years old? Could it be that..."

His scalp was numb. "He is the leader of the study group from one hundred and fifty years ago?"

He and Hua Hu had a guess that the leader of the study group obtained the "Sixteen Chapters of the True Dragon" and refined all sixteen chapters, which significantly extended his lifespan and allowed him to live until now!

If the old immortal of the Tong family was the leader of the study group, then killing two saints of the Xue family would probably be easy for him!

The old man in white laughed loudly, his voice was loud and did not show any signs of aging. He said calmly, "This old man might even be able to kill another saint. Xue Qingfu, you shouldn't have come."

Xue Qingfu smiled and looked at Senior Tong, saying to Su Yun, "Let's go. The faster, the better!"

Su Yun didn't hesitate and immediately rushed towards the direction of Yu Tianjiang. His body movements were like a swimming dragon, sometimes turning into a spirit ape, and suddenly flapping his wings and flying.

Boom!

Behind him, a very strong wave came. Su Yun saw that his shadow became incredibly clear and incredibly dark at this moment, and was instantly stretched very long!

He immediately jumped out like a spirit ape, hiding behind a large rock. The terrifying wave hit, like a volcanic eruption, flames and shock waves destroyed everything, and rushed towards him, igniting everything around him.

After this wave of impact passed, Su Yun immediately jumped out. He shook his arms in the sea of fire, and countless fire feathers flew behind him. He spread his wings and rushed into the sea of fire.

Suddenly, the sea of fire split open, and Su Yun's wings wrapped around him, whizzing and rotating, rushing out of the sea of fire.

Before he landed, he saw the giant Yu Tianjiang, who was tens of feet tall, bend down and reach out to grab him.That giant wasn't a monster or demon, nor was he human. He seemed to be naturally tall and big, with strange spiral patterns on his arms, which should be the descendants of extraterrestrial races that fell with the Tian Shi Yuan.

Yu Tian Jiang was incredibly powerful, with palms covering about half an acre of land. When he fell from above, Su Yun had almost no chance to hide!

Just as he was about to catch Su Yun, Yu Tian Jiang suddenly groaned and flew high into the air, crashing into the mountains.

Su Yun knew it was Xue Qing Fu who made the move, so he kept running with his head down.

Suddenly, a terrifying force brushed past him on both sides of his body, and the earth cracked with a cracking sound, revealing two deep abysses.

Su Yun leaped like a bird, crossing one of the abysses and urging the Immortal Rope in his sleeve. With a whoosh, the Immortal Rope carried him up into the sky.

Just as he rose from the mountains, an invisible wave swept across the ground, and pieces of trees and forests were sliced flat and flew into the sky.

Su Yun was in mid-air, and a terrible storm struck, blowing him over towards the depths of the Tian Shi Yuan's old no-man's-land.

He reached out and grabbed the Immortal Rope, retracting it into his sleeve, while the wooden box in his sleeve flew out like flowing sand and combined with Bi Fang to form a pair of Bi Fang Divine Wings, flapping in the violent storm.

The air around him was violently shaking, with lightning and thunder everywhere, and vortex storms formed by the collision of two great masters' abilities!

Su Yun struggled to stabilize his body, and the Yellow Bell spun above his head. His every movement was incredibly precise, avoiding the danger in the air without wasting any physical energy.

He even had the strength to turn his head and look back, only to see the old immortal of the Tong family flying in the air, with two Bi Fang Divine Birds accompanying him, attacking Xue Qing Fu!

"That's the real Bi Fang... No, wait!"

Su Yun withdrew his gaze and rushed down towards the ground, thinking, "That's the body of Bi Fang, which he has refined into a spiritual weapon. Where did the old immortal get the real Bi Fang from? This kind of sacred creature should be as rare as the real dragon, right?"

The Bi Fang Divine Art of Nurturing Qi was donated by the Tong family and handed over to the various universities of the Shuo Fang to cultivate the foundation. Apparently, the Tong family had already obtained the Bi Fang Divine Bird during the reign of the Yuan Emperor.

"If the old immortal is the leader of the study group, maybe he can really kill the Bi Fang Divine Bird."

Su Yun rushed out, hiding behind a mountain peak in a no-man's-land, avoiding the storm. Suddenly, there was a loud noise, and he looked up to see the mountaintop flying out flat and falling several miles away.

"It's not safe to stay here for long!"

He immediately rushed forward, and suddenly, dragon-shaped clouds appeared under his feet, carrying him over mountains and hills. He thought, "If the old immortal of the Tong family is the leader of the study group, then Xue Sheng Ren won't be his opponent. The leader of the study group can master the ability of the real dragon, and can be said to have refined himself into a real dragon. Plus, with at least 150 years of cultivation, he can be said to be at the level of the four great myths."

The sky suddenly became incredibly dark, and then two incredibly bright lights pierced the darkness, like a sword made of light and fire, cutting through the earth.

Su Yun's mind was shaken, and he hurriedly avoided.

"Old immortal of the Tong family, I want to know why you must get Su Xiao Ge?" Xue Qing Fu's voice came from the sky.

The fire disappeared, and Su Yun looked up to see a bright moon and a sun appearing in the sky, with two Bi Fang Divine Birds, one surrounded by the moon and the other surrounded by the sun, and Xue Qing Fu's figure standing in the middle of the sun and moon.

"Because of the immortal technique."The old immortal of the Tong family suddenly activated his magical powers. Two Bi Fang divine birds flapped their wings and forcefully cut open Xue Qingfu's seal with their divine powers. Countless feathers flew out from their wings like long swords, hovering and flying around Xue Qingfu!

"Because he has immortal skills!"

The old immortal of the Tong family personally entered the sword formation, presiding over it. His voice came from afar: "Tong Qingyun reported to me that he broke the suppression of the Ten Embroidery Map and used the power of the Spiritual Realm to heavily injure the human demon. Only with immortal skills can one break the suppression of the Great Saint Spirit Soldier!"

Su Yun ran with his head down, and the Bi Fang feathers burning with raging divine fire flew around him like swords in the mountains and rivers, making him have to be careful.

Suddenly, a Bi Fang divine feather slashed towards him. Su Yun did not hesitate and flapped his wings to turn around in the air. His wings behind him turned into a wooden sword, and he swung it!

Immortal Sword Slaughters Demon Dragon!

Chi—

The Bi Fang divine feather was split in half by his sword and flew past him on both sides. Su Yun landed, staggered back, and unloaded the hidden power in the attack.

The Bi Fang divine feather that he had split apart flew straight to the old immortal of the Tong family in the air.

The old immortal of the Tong family still crazily attacked Xue Qingfu and laughed: "Can a person in the Spiritual Realm do this?"

Xue Qingfu's gaze fell on the Bi Fang divine feather, and his heart trembled. He said lightly: "Immortal skills are just a legend."

"Xue Saint, you have lived next to Tian Shi Yuan for so many years, you must know that immortal skills are not just a legend."

The two fought in the air, and the sound continued to enter Su Yun's ears: "You saw immortal skills from the hands of the God King in the Old Desert last time, right? You didn't want to leave Shuo Fang for these years just for the immortal skills of Tian Shi Yuan?"

The thunder in the sky roared, and Xue Qingfu's voice came: "Although I appreciate immortal skills, I know that no one's body in this world can withstand the power of immortal skills. Not even the God King in the Old Desert!"

Su Yun ran all the way, and suddenly a deafening roar came from the sky, shaking his blood and making him unable to help but cough up blood.

An even more terrifying storm came and swept him up. In the midst of the raging wind, rocks as large as small mountains collided with each other!

Su Yun forcibly swallowed the blood that rushed into his throat, shouted loudly, and twelve divine beasts appeared behind him. The Yellow Bell above their heads constantly made a trembling sound, shattering all the rocks that came flying towards them!

In the center of the storm, Xue Qingfu and the old immortal of the Tong family landed at the same time. Xue Qingfu smiled and said, "It's reasonable for an old immortal to leave the capital and return to Shuo Fang for immortal skills, but why did the Tong family secretly rob the ashes of the gray monster? Could it also be for immortal skills?"

The old immortal of the Tong family snorted and did not speak.

Xue Qingfu stepped back and said leisurely: "Your injuries are too serious, to the point where you dare not even speak. It seems that I, as a younger generation, am more skilled than you."

He flew away quickly.

The old immortal of the Tong family stood there and took a moment to suppress his injuries. He spat out a mouthful of blood and laughed, "I didn't speak just to catch my breath, but you spoke to show off your strength. Your injuries will only get worse."

He floated forward with his sleeves fluttering: "Moreover, not only do I want to get immortal skills this time, but the God King also wants them."

The storm subsided, and Su Yun staggered to the ground. Looking up, he saw that he had come to a ruined city in Tian Shi Yuan. There were ruins of ancient buildings everywhere, with broken walls and dilapidated palaces, silently telling the history of the past.Numerous tall stone statues were scattered around the ruins. Su Yun looked around and noticed that there were no longer any anomalies caused by the battle of the two powerhouses in the sky, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.

"The Saint Xue is respected as a saint not only because of his reputation but also because of his strength. He should be fine," Su Yun said as he walked forward. However, he did not notice that when he passed by a fallen stone statue, its eyes suddenly opened. The eyes were not made of stone, but flesh and blood!

As he delved deeper into the ruins, Su Yun saw more and more stone statues. Most of them were missing arms and legs and looked like the sacred statues in temples.

"Why are these statues gathered here?" Su Yun wondered.

He even saw the bodhisattvas and arhats worshipped in temples among these statues. However, he did not notice that as he walked past them, the statues opened their eyes and began to move.

Some even turned around quietly!

Su Yun suddenly turned around, sensing something. All the stone statues stopped moving and remained petrified.

After looking around suspiciously and finding nothing unusual, Su Yun turned around and continued walking. Suddenly, he turned around again and saw the group of stone statues following him stealthily. Startled, they let out a piercing scream!

Su Yun was also scared and his hair stood on end. Then, a stone statue behind him raised a finger larger than Su Yun's head and poked his shoulder. "Don't scream, young friend. Do you remember me? We sold goods together in the Ghost Market!"
