One person: I am the dragon, tiger, wine and sword immortal

After saying that, Tao Tao led his companions away quickly. Wang Ye looked at their backs and guessed in his heart: "It seems that Zhang Hao has already taken action. Something big must have happened in Tangzhong."

On the other side, Zhang Chulan and Feng Baobao were on their way to escape. Suddenly, Zhang Chulan noticed that the actions of the Tang Sect disciples in front of him were a little unusual. They seemed to be rushing in the same direction. Zhang Chulan's heart moved, and he said to Feng Baobao: "Baobao, look at those Tang Sect disciples, they seem to be rushing somewhere. I think Quan Xing's people may have made some progress in Tang Tomb."

Feng Baobao nodded and said, "What should we do then? Continue to run away?"

Zhang Chulan shook his head and said, "No, we have to follow and see. Maybe we can find some clues."

So, the two changed their escape plan and instead followed the pace of the Tang Sect disciples.

At the same time, Lü Liang and others also learned the whereabouts of Xu Xin. They learned Xu Xin's hiding place from Tang Qiushan's memory through soul-searching, and they couldn't help but feel excited. Lü Liang said excitedly: "Finally found Xu Xin's whereabouts! Now we can find Wu Gensheng!"

Tu Junfang, Xia Liuqing and Grandma Jinfeng also expressed their agreement. They decided to go to Tangzhong to look for Xu Xin immediately.

However, they didn't know that Tang Miaoxing was secretly observing them on their way to Tangzhong. Tang Miaoxing originally planned to ambush the four people, but the news from Tangzhong made him change his plan.

In this way, all forces are converging towards Tangzhong. A war is about to break out, and the truth will gradually surface in this war.

When Tao Tao and others arrived at Tang Tomb, they saw chaos. Tang Sect disciples were fighting fiercely with Quan Xing's people, while Zhang Hao was watching the battle from the side, seemingly looking for an opportunity. Seeing this, Tao Tao immediately joined the battle and started a fierce battle with Quan Xing's people.

Zhang Chulan and Feng Baobao also rushed to the scene. When they saw Zhang Hao, they couldn't help but feel confused. Zhang Chulan secretly guessed: "What on earth is Zhang Hao doing? What is his purpose in coming here?"

Zhang Hao unexpectedly passed through the Tang Sect's Bagua Stone Formation unimpeded, as if a mysterious force was guiding him. The entrance to the valley was right in front of him, and he felt both excited and nervous.

"It's really strange. Why doesn't this stone formation react to us at all?" Zhang Hao muttered to himself in confusion.

"Don't be careless, the Tang Sect is not a joke." Tang Feifei frowned and reminded.

At this moment, two inner disciples of the Tang Sect came towards them and saluted respectfully to Zhang Hao and the others, as if they had already known of their arrival.

"This...what's going on?" Zhang Hao was even more confused.

Tang Feifei looked around cautiously, fearing that there might be a trap. But Zhang Hao walked forward confidently, believing that even if there was a trap, they could easily deal with it.

The passage through the valley was smooth and there were no obstacles. Tang Feifei's doubts grew more and more serious, and she couldn't help but start to wonder if something had happened to the Tang Sect.

Finally, they came to a wide cave. There was nothing in the cave except for a towering stone pillar, which was engraved with a complex Dan-devouring diagram and exuded a mysterious atmosphere.

"Is this Tang's tomb?" Zhang Hao exclaimed.

Tang Feifei was also shocked by the scene before her, and she nodded in affirmation.

Under the stone pillar, they found a slovenly figure, sitting cross-legged in front of a chessboard, as if he had been in a trance for a long time. The two looked at each other, both curious.

Zhang Hao approached cautiously, wanting to find out what was going on, while Tang Feifei followed closely behind, keeping alert.

"Senior, I'm Zhang Hao, and I've come to visit you specially." Zhang Hao said respectfully.

But the slovenly figure didn't respond at all, as if he didn't hear anything. Zhang Hao couldn't help but raise his voice, but still got no response.

"It seems that this senior has been in meditation for a long time." Tang Feifei said.

Zhang Hao nodded and began to carefully observe the situation on the chessboard. He found that this chess game was extremely complicated and seemed to contain some profound truth.

"This chess game... seems to have some tricks." Zhang Hao said to himself.

Tang Feifei also came over, and the two of them studied the chess game together. Gradually, they seemed to be attracted by the mystery of the chess game and forgot the passage of time.

At this moment, the sloppy figure suddenly moved and slowly opened his eyes. He glanced at Zhang Hao and Tang Feifei, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"You two little guys actually made it here and cracked my chess game," he said.

Zhang Hao and Tang Feifei were startled. They didn't expect that this senior would suddenly wake up. They saluted and showed their respect.

"Senior, I have no intention of offending you. I just came here by mistake." Zhang Hao explained.

The slovenly figure waved his hand, signaling them not to be nervous. He stood up and stretched, as if he had just woken up from a deep sleep.

"Since you can come here, it means you are destined to be with me. I can tell you some secrets about Tang Tomb." he said.

Zhang Hao recognized the familiar figure at a glance - Xu Xin. He decided to walk towards his former friend.

However, just as he approached Xu Xin, the surrounding cave walls suddenly lit up, and a group of Tang Sect disciples in white appeared silently and surrounded them.

"The sect leader has ordered that you two should be patient," a disciple said coldly.

Seeing this, Tang Feifei raised her eyebrows and was about to take action. However, Zhang Hao stopped her with his hand and said calmly, "Let's wait."

The Tang Sect disciples didn't say anything else, just stood there quietly, like sculptures. Zhang Hao and Tang Feifei were surrounded in the middle, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Soon, Tang Miaoxing appeared at the entrance of the cave. His eyes swept over the two men and finally landed on Zhang Hao: "You trespassed into Tang's tomb. Do you know your crime?"

Zhang Hao smiled slightly and said, "I came here just to see Xu Xin, and I have no other intentions."

Tang Miaoxing sneered: "Do you think I will believe your lies? You and Zhang Chulan teamed up, aren't you trying to find out the secrets of my Tang Sect?" Zhang Hao shook his head and said, "The secrets of the Tang Sect have nothing to do with me. I only care about Xu Xin."

Tang Miaoxing's face darkened, and he was about to explode when he heard Xu Xin's voice: "Let him come over."

Everyone was shocked to see Xu Xin had opened his eyes and was looking at Zhang Hao quietly. Tang Miaoxing hesitated for a moment, but finally gave way.

Zhang Hao walked up to Xu Xin, squatted down, and looked him straight in the eyes: "Xu Xin, are you okay?"

Xu Xin smiled slightly and said, "I'm fine, just a little tired."

Zhang Hao nodded and said, "I came here to ask you something."

Xu Xin didn't say anything, just listened quietly. Zhang Hao took a deep breath and began to talk about his doubts and guesses.

The conversation between the two lasted for a long time, and Tang Feifei and the Tang Sect disciples were listening quietly. Tang Miaoxing's face became more and more solemn, and he seemed to have heard something from Zhang Hao's words.

Finally, Zhang Hao finished his question and looked at Xu Xin, waiting for his answer. Xu Xin was silent for a while, then slowly said: "There are some things that I don't want to say, but I can't say them."

Zhang Hao's heart sank, but he did not give up: "I know you are in trouble, but I just hope you can tell me the truth."

Xu Xin sighed and said, "The truth is often much more cruel than we imagine."

Zhang Hao sat opposite Xu Xin, his eyes sharp as an eagle. He asked straight to the point: "Xu Xin, the outside world thought you were dead, how did you survive?"

Xu Xin smiled slightly, with a sly look in his eyes: "Brother Hao, this is the secret of the Tang Sect. But since you asked, I will tell you. The reason I was able to survive was all thanks to the Tang Sect's Dan Devouring Technique."

Zhang Hao raised his eyebrows, obviously very interested in this answer: "Dan Shi? I heard that there are only a few people in the Tang Sect who can master this skill in the past few decades. You are one of them?"

Xu Xin nodded: "Yes, I am one of them. The Dan Shi technique can not only be used to kill the enemy, but also to protect oneself. The reason why I was able to escape those pursuits was all thanks to this unique skill."

Zhang Hao pondered for a moment and asked, "Then how did you get through the Tang Sect's Bagua Stone Formation? That formation gives even me a headache."

Xu Xin laughed proudly: "Brother Hao, you don't know this. The reason why I was able to get through the Eight Diagrams Stone Array is all due to my understanding of the Tang Sect. I know the movement pattern of each stone, and I also know how to avoid those deadly traps."

Zhang Hao couldn't help but look at Xu Xin with new eyes: "You are indeed a smart man. However, in recent years, most of the inner disciples of Tang Sect have been sent out to perform tasks, but few have returned. What's going on?"

Xu Xin's eyes became serious: "This is another secret of the Tang Sect. Those inner disciples who were sent out are actually carrying out a special mission - to find the successor of Dan Shi."

Zhang Hao was surprised and asked, "Looking for a successor? Could it be that the Tang Sect is still looking for someone who can master the Dan Devouring?"

Xu Xin nodded: "That's right. Dan Shi is the unique skill of the Tang Sect, but the number of people who can master it is decreasing. The Tang Sect's top leaders have been looking for potential disciples, hoping to pass on this unique skill."

Zhang Hao fell into deep thought: "So, those disciples who were sent out were actually practicing Danxi in secret?"

Xu Xin nodded: "You can say that. However, the hardships and dangers involved are beyond the imagination of ordinary people."

Zhang Hao sighed: "In this peaceful era, the Tang Sect still has to go to such great lengths to find a successor. It's really touching."

Xu Xin smiled bitterly: "Brother Hao, do you think we are willing to do this? But the Tang Sect is a sect that respects martial arts after all. Without strong strength, how can we gain a foothold in the martial arts world?"

Zhang Hao was silent for a moment, then patted Xu Xin on the shoulder: "Don't worry, I will help you. No matter what difficulties you encounter, I will stand by your side."

Xu Xin looked at Zhang Hao gratefully: "Brother Hao, thank you."

Tang Miaoxing and the inner disciples present were stunned. They looked at this ten-year-old child and felt an indescribable shock in their hearts. Zhang Hao's words were like a sharp sword, pointing directly at the core of the Tang Sect, forcing them to re-examine their sect and beliefs.

"How are you sure Xu Xin is still alive?" There was a hint of doubt in Tang Miaoxing's voice. He stared at Zhang Hao, trying to see some clues in the child's eyes.

Zhang Hao smiled slightly, his eyes clear and firm, "Master Tang, don't forget that Xu Xin is the only one who successfully practiced Danxie and survived. Isn't it because of this precedent that you dare to let all the inner disciples practice Danxie?"

Tang Miaoxing was choked by Zhang Hao's words. It was indeed because of Xu Xin's successful example that he dared to take the risk of letting all the inner disciples practice Danxi. But he didn't expect that this seemingly ordinary decision would be seen so clearly by this ten-year-old child.

"You... who are you?" There was a tremor in Tang Miaoxing's voice. He began to doubt Zhang Hao's identity and the power behind him.

Zhang Hao did not directly answer Tang Miaoxing's question, but smiled faintly, "I am just an ordinary disciple of Tianshi Mansion. But my understanding of Tang Sect may be no less than yours."

Tang Miaoxing was silent. He looked at Zhang Hao, and an indescribable fear surged in his heart. It was the first time that he felt such a strong sense of oppression from a child, as if Zhang Hao's wisdom and intelligence had exceeded his imagination.

At this time, Xu Xin was also quietly observing all this. He looked at Zhang Hao with admiration and emotion in his heart. He did not expect that this seemingly ordinary disciple of the Tianshi Mansion actually had such amazing intelligence and insight.

"What an amazing kid." Xu Xin sighed in his heart. He expressed his sincere admiration for Zhang Hao's talent. At the same time, he also envied the fortune of Tianshi Mansion. It was a blessing for Tianshi Mansion to have such a disciple.

Xu Xin looked at the young man Zhang Hao in front of him with a frown on his face. He asked doubtfully, "Have you really mastered the Dan Devouring Technique? This is a realm that even the inner disciples of my Tang Sect find difficult to achieve."

Zhang Hao smiled slightly and said calmly: "Senior, I do have mastered Dan Shi. But this is not my capital to show off, but the power I must have in order to complete a certain mission."

After hearing this, Xu Xin became even more confused. He knew the difficulty of Danxi, and he also understood that Zhang Hao's words seemed to hide a bigger secret. He took a deep breath and asked tentatively: "Then how did you get through the Bagua Stone Formation?"

Zhang Hao answered frankly: "I did pass through the Bagua Stone Formation. But that was to find something important, not to offend the Tang Sect intentionally."

Xu Xin and Tang Miaoxing looked at each other, and both saw shock and murderous intent in each other's eyes. The Eight Diagrams Stone Formation is the secret of the Tang Sect, and anyone who leaks it will be regarded as a traitor. Tang Miaoxing said coldly: "You have violated the rules of the Tang Sect by breaking through the Eight Diagrams Stone Formation. As the head of the sect, I cannot sit idly by and do nothing!!"
