one person's life

Chapter 233: The pill has been swallowed, Tang Miaoxing’s heartache

"Failed." Tang Muzhi could already feel that Tang Lesheng's body was abnormally restless, and he was no longer as calm as before.

Tang Lesheng opened his eyes in time, and two lines of clear tears slowly flowed from the corners of his eyes. He had already become emaciated, and the teardrops flowed through his convex cheekbones and flew out, wetting his trouser legs.

"Ugh..."

He choked out a cry, and his eyes finally changed, no longer so numb and emotionless.For the sake of Alchemy and the assassin's way in his heart, he put his life on the line and used it as a bargaining chip to place pressure on Alchemy. Thirteen years passed by, which was longer than the time when Tang Muzhi joined the Tang Sect.These 13 years have been filled with extremes, loneliness, and fear. During this period, he has witnessed several of his fellow disciples die from the backlash of the alchemy, and now it is finally his turn.

There was fear, regret, and unwillingness in his eyes—but these were quickly covered by distorted pain. Beads of sweat flowed from bottom to top, and his lower lip had been bitten open, and bright red blood came out .

"Hu-hu-"

Surrounded by severe pain, Tang Lesheng's breathing became heavy, his shoulders and limbs began to tremble uncontrollably, a dark qi light emerged from the meridians at the center of his eyebrows, his head was like glass about to burst, starting from the center of the eyebrows to the Crack-like energy spread out all around.

"Door, Chief, I'm so ashamed... Ugh! Ahhhhh!!!"

Perhaps because he was unwilling to die without words, Tang Lesheng did not insist on gritting his teeth and enduring the pain. Instead, he spoke to Yang Lie when he fell to the ground unable to suppress the pain.

"Lesheng, I know, we all know."

Tang Lesheng's pupils narrowed violently, and no one knew whether he really heard Yang Lie's response, because Tang Zhong was soon enveloped in his shrill screams.

"Uh...wow wow wow!!"

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"

Tang Lesheng fell sideways on the ground of Tangzhong Cave. The meridians all over his body were already exposed due to the poison of Danzhu. There were white irregular lines all over his body, which were the twelve meridians that were forced to be exposed by Danzhu. Normally, the alien can move Qi and move blood, but he can only feel it but cannot see it with the naked eye. Now he is bloody and exposed in front of everyone in such a cruel way.

Tang Lesheng curled up on the ground and began to twist and scream. His meridians began to collapse, from the heavenly spirit to the fingers and toes, and there was severe pain everywhere in his body.Tang Lesheng struggled to lift his torso up with his upper limbs. His fingers were dug deep into the ground, and his nails were flying with flesh as he struggled wildly.

"Help me, Chief... please... uh uh... ahhhhhh!!!"

"Help me! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!! please! Deputy gate chief! Mr. Wang!"

"Master Wang...Zhang Wang!!! Tang Miaoxing! Yang Lie!...It's all because of you!!! Ahhhhhh!!!"

Yang Lie, Tang Miaoxing, Zhang Wang and others looked calm and allowed Tang Lesheng to struggle and crawl towards them. His white middle coat had been torn, exposing his bloody skin.

"Why do I have to be named Tang!! Why do I have to waste my life in such a ghost place!! No! I haven't inherited the alchemy yet, I can't die!"

"Please, please, please give me a pleasure - uhhhhhh!!"

"Tang Muzhi! You are a young boy with no father and mother! You are worthy of inheriting the alchemy! Only I, only I can inherit the alchemy! I want to become the best assassin in the world!! I want to revitalize the Tang Sect! I You want to be admired by thousands of people! Damn you, thief God!!!!”

"..."

Tang Muzhi looked at Tang Lesheng who was struggling like crazy towards the direction where he was sitting cross-legged. He felt a cold air rising from bottom to top. It was difficult for him to distinguish between the current Tang Lesheng and the calm one he met in the tomb. , indifferent, firm in faith, and Tang Lesheng who said "I will die without regrets".

He knows why the process of Alchemy inheritance has been kept secret since ancient times. It is because the pain after the failure of inheriting Alchemy and the backlash will make a man who is unyielding and unflinching in taking human lives give up his dignity, honor, disgrace, and morality... what Alchemy took away, In addition to life, there are also people who stick to what they pursue throughout their lives.

Tang Lesheng's face has been completely distorted into a human shape, like a ghost that has just climbed up from the eighteenth level of hell, but the lines on his face have gradually begun to soften, and the deathly aura on his face has become more solemn.

"Help me, Chief...Help me, Tang Muzhi, please, help senior brother..."

"Help senior brother...help senior brother..."

In the whispers, Tang Lesheng's struggle gradually became smaller, and finally he curled up on the ground and became motionless. His right hand, which had lost its nails and was bloody and bloody, was only a few inches away from Tang Muzhi. It has accumulated in Tang Mu's nasal cavity.

Tang Lesheng, an inner disciple of the Tang Sect, was born in [-]. In [-], he failed to inherit the alchemy and died.

Tang Muzhi finally had the strength to turn around and look back, but everyone present was still sitting there watching. Tang Lesheng's body was already stiff, and no one said unnecessary words or showed unnecessary expressions. This was a part of the Danzhu succession ceremony Huan, the disciple can choose to ask someone to witness the whole process of inheriting the elixir.Most of the people present were elders, and it was basically not the first time they had witnessed such a scene.It's just that some emotions hidden under the calm surface can still be seen from the expressions: pity, fear, or sadness... It's just that they controlled these emotions very well. After Tang Lesheng died, the atmosphere in the tomb was still Quiet, only the innate energy is more lively and natural than before when it is quiet, and is not affected by the human consciousness.

"Tang Muzhi, send Lesheng to the Tang Tomb." Yang Lie ordered coldly.

"Yes." Tang Muzhi got up on the spot, collected the nail fragments left on the ground without changing his face, and then stroked Tang Lesheng's ferocious expression so that it naturally eased.Tang Lesheng was very light, so it was not difficult to pick him up. Tang Muzhi entered the tomb alone, placed him in place, and stayed overnight for him.

When Tang Muzhi went out the next day, others had already left or entered the cave to continue practicing. As long as they were still in Tang Tomb, there would be no shortage of time to pay homage to Tang Lesheng.In Nuo Da's cave, only Yang Lie and Xu Xin stayed in place. The others either returned to the cave or had been driven out of Tangzhong Cave by Yang Lie.

"master."

Yang Lie: "Have you seen Le Sheng's ending clearly?"

"See clearly."

Although Tang Lesheng had a tragic ending, it must be said that he was the person who had the highest degree of completion of this ritual among those who were determined to inherit the alchemy in recent years. In the 13 years he spent in Tangzhong, he had accomplished everything he could. At least he completed the process of alchemy, but he did not complete the final refining, which can be said to be a last resort.

A final kick - but the gap between him and success is still as big as a chasm. What he lacks is a trait that no one in the Tang Sect, except Xu Xin and Yang Lie, dares to confirm that he possesses: the traits of a true assassin.

That is the characteristic that must be possessed for a long time to inherit Danqi. It is the state of completely disregarding life and taking people's lives with the mentality of picking up a pebble.

Yang Lie: "It's not too late to regret now."

"I will succeed." Tang Muzhi did not say the same words as Tang Lesheng, because he believed that he would not die, believed that he had a solid foundation in poison skills, and had already seen through the crucial barrier of nothingness.

Xu Xin and Yang Lie looked at each other, and Yang Lie said: "Okay, that's it. It seems that your heart will not be shaken."

"Now let me tell you, I am the only two people in the world who have mastered the Danqi. As a senior, you are not allowed to delve into his affairs. Next, the two of us will learn from each other's strengths and will once again sort out for you the complete steps and procedures for inheriting the Danqiu. Pay attention to the essentials - but don't take chances. The skills are only for the route of Qi before refining. It is the most critical step. If you cannot cross that door, your life will soon be in vain."

"I will succeed!" Although Tang Muzhi was slightly shorter than Yang Lie, their eyes were level with each other at the moment.

"……it is good."

The three sat down, and Yang Lie and Xu Xin began to teach Tang Muzhi the skills of inheriting alchemy.

……

……

This transmission lasted for another whole day, with Yang Lie and Xu Xin explaining alternately without stopping.

At the same time, everything was ready. Outside Tang Tomb, Tang Miaoxing, Zhang Wang and others saw that the time had come, and the feeling of depression and anxiety in their hearts finally erupted at this moment.

Zhang Wang was already a little helpless. He hinted in his heart to calm down, but he couldn't do it. He couldn't help but secretly cursed himself for living more and going back.

"Zhang Wang, the matter has come to this, what are you still worried about?" Tang Miaoxing's eyes were bright.

Zhang Wang has lost the desire to look back on the past. When he was young, he acted impulsively, but after the baptism of time, although he cannot do everything now, he can be regarded as a person who has a long-term vision and takes precautions.

Put aside your conscience and speak only from the perspective of interests.Tang Lesheng's death will not bring any loss to the Tang Sect. Even if he succeeds, with his physical and mental conditions, it will take a long time to really use the alchemy bite against the enemy as a killing weapon to deter the world. However, Tang Muzhi was different. Even without Dan Qi, even without Yin and Yang Qi, Tang Muzhi still had the talent and virtue to lead the Tang Sect to mediate conflicts in the arena. Once he died, the Tang Sect would lose a superb master. Xuan Cheng's position is not necessarily clear, so the road to the Health Department is closed.

And even if Yang Lie becomes the head of the Tang Sect, he will just continue to sail the ancient ship of the Tang Sect. When he is in a high position and wants to make changes to the people below, his actions will inevitably affect his whole body. Is that good or bad? It cannot be judged as bad.What can be expected is that Yang Lie has no successor, and the Tang Sect's path will be even more difficult and confusing.

"It's past half hour, but there's still no movement...Zhang Wang, Tang Muzhi will definitely succeed, believe him."

Time passed quietly and anxiously among the people outside the tomb, and in a blink of an eye it was already the time of ugliness, that is, at two o'clock in the morning. In the silent Tang Tomb, Yang Lie vented his long-standing negative emotions, and hearty laughter he hadn't heard for many years Resound through the valley!
"Hahahahahaha..."

Outside Tang Tomb, Tang Miaoxing and Zhang Wang looked at each other, and they both saw surprise in each other's eyes!
"It's done, is it done?"

"It's done...Tang Muzhi, he's really done it!"

"Phew - it was a false alarm. I have never been so nervous in many years!" Tang Qiushan stretched out his hand to wipe away the cold sweat that couldn't stop flowing down his face. His pupils dilated due to excitement, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Hahahahaha... In the prosperous age, I didn't expect that this cruel road could burst out with infinite vitality! With three people in one generation mastering the alchemy bite, the Tang Sect will rise again!"

Zhang Wang and Tang Miaoxing did not hesitate and ran towards Tang Tomb at full speed the moment they heard Yang Lie's laughter.

In the empty Tang Tomb cave, Xu Xin had disappeared. The disciples of the Tang clan who had been hiding in the cave today jumped down one after another. Tang Muzhi and Yang Lie were in the center of the crowd.

"Master Wang, Master Miaoxing."

Tang Muzhi didn't seem to have changed in any way, his breath was still quiet and introverted. If he wasn't sensitive to five senses, his 1.8-meter-eight stature, standing like a piece of dead wood, could easily be overlooked.

Yang Lie had calmed down. He swept his sleeves and said to Zhang, Wang and Tang Miaoxing, "He's done!"

Tang Muzhi released a breath at the right time, and a familiar, twisted and violent atmosphere spread around him again. He moved Qi points all over his body, and the Qi body that condensed the elixir was leaked slightly. The transparent gas covered Tang Muzhi's clothes and The surrounding environment is assimilated, and the twisted transparent energy flow spreads around in irregular lines.

goo...

Tang Muzhi stretched out his right hand, and above his thumb and index finger, there was an imperceptible lump of real qi the size of a bean grain, but this was the same as his yin-yang qi shield, invisible to the naked eye, and it would have been impossible if he hadn't been there. Even the masters here are unaware of this unique poison that has just been refined and its aura is still unstable!
Zhang Wang's eyes widened and he felt his throat was dry. He subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva and pretended to be calm and said, "Humph, I knew you could do it."

Tang Miaoxing stared intently at Tang Muzhi's two fingers, his expression was dazed, and he fell into a sluggish state.

"Ha... what is this, jealousy? You were jealous of Yang Lie and Xu Xin, and now you have other thoughts about a junior... Don't be embarrassed." The self in Tang Miaoxing's heart kept asking questions, but he had been gathered into complex I was overwhelmed with emotions and couldn't think.

"Tang Miaoxing?" Everyone else's attention was focused on Tang Muzhi. Only Zhang Wang noticed something strange about him. He looked at Tang Miaoxing inexplicably.

Tang Miaoxing came back to his senses, and the light in his eyes dimmed, "Well... this is a great thing."

Zhang Wang reacted and guessed what Tang Miaoxing was thinking. He curled his lips but said nothing.

In Zhang Wang's generation, there were two talented people who suddenly emerged when they were young. One was Yang Lie, Young Master Yang. He gave up being a son of a rich and gentry family and went to Tangmen to study as a teacher. Later, he passed through Mianshan and Jilin Tuotian Cave. Waiting for the Shura field, he saw through the life and death barrier, and successfully mastered the alchemy in four or four years.

Another genius is Xu Xin. At only 20 years old, he has mastered all the methods in the sect except for weapon refining. He is especially talented in the side method of mechanism technique.Xu Xin teamed up with Dong Chang to take the lives of two notorious omnisexual demons in his first attack, and later became one of the only three survivors of the Mianshan Battle.

In the Jiashen year, everyone else was buried in the mountains to practice in seclusion. Xu Xin ran out and formed a secret friendship with Wu Gensheng and others. In the end, he successfully mastered the alchemy bite like Yang Lie.

You must know that before this, the younger generation in the sect, Tang Miaoxing and Dong Chang, were the strongest. If it were not for these two outer sect disciples, maybe he would have been the head of the Tang sect long ago.

Unfortunately, Tang Miaoxing himself knew one thing. Even if he became the head of the Tang Sect, he would not be a qualified head, because after all, he did not have the talent to refine the elixir he had always admired.
