I use my daughter's body to cut down the rivers and lakes

Chapter 412 Severed Hand
Boom!

The entire mountain range collapsed.

Even thousands of miles away, one could clearly feel the ground shaking.

When the ground began to tremble slightly, a figure suddenly emerged from the teahouse beside the official road.

This person is none other than Xiu Shaoyang, the owner of Jiangnan Knights' Tower.

Several more people rushed out of the teahouse and stood beside Xiu Shaoyang. Seeing Xiu Shaoyang looking into the distance with a serious gaze, they couldn't help but look puzzled.

"Cough cough cough..."

After looking at each other for a few times, a gray-haired old man finally coughed twice and took the initiative to speak: "It seems that a dragon has turned over somewhere. If the host is worried, just go and take a look yourself."

"What Elder Sun said makes sense. These corrupt officials in the court are good at eating, drinking, whoring and gambling. Whenever the common people encounter any trouble, they run away faster than dogs." Someone echoed from the side, his words full of disdain for the government.

In order to capture Gu Liancheng, Xiu Shaoyang brought almost all the masters of the Xiaxing lineage to Beijing this time.

The Beggars' Sect's chivalrous lineage takes it as its mission to punish evil, promote good and uphold justice. The seven or eight people around Xiu Shaoyang have followed him for at least fifteen or sixteen years, so it is not the first time that they have encountered a dragon turning over.

"It's not a dragon turning over." Xiu Shaoyang slowly withdrew his gaze, then shook his head, but what he said shocked everyone.

"If it's not a dragon turning over, then could it be someone..." The one who spoke was the old man named Sun.

Xiu Shaoyang suddenly interrupted his muttering and said, "Elder Sun is right. This should be the noise of a fight between masters."

Xiu Shaoyang's eyes flickered, and his voice became lower and lower: "At such a long distance, he can still sense the movement. There are only a few people who can have such a shocking cultivation level."

Although Xiu Shaoyang could sense the direction, he had no idea how far it was from him.

"Let's go!" Xiu Shaoyang thought for a moment and then made a decisive decision, "Maybe Gu Liancheng is there too."

……

The area near the mountain range where the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum is located was naturally the worst affected area.

Especially the nearby villages, as the mountain collapsed, most of them were buried in mud several feet or even dozens of feet deep.

The location where the mountains were originally located was now covered by a gray-yellow fog.

If one's vision could penetrate the gray-yellow fog, one would be surprised to find that a huge deep pit had sunk under the fog, in which the outlines of some palaces could be clearly seen. The Qin Emperor's Mausoleum, buried deep underground, had now been exposed to the light of day.

boom!
Suddenly, black splashed up from the ground, and a yellowish-brown light came out from underground, then landed steadily on the ground.

As the khaki fluorescent light around her body gradually faded, Liu Qi walked out slowly. Her clothes were clean and tidy, and there was no sign that she had just escaped from underground.

All this is thanks to something in her hand... the imperial seal.

There was a jade seal placed in Liu Qi's open left hand, and the yellowish-brown light just now came from this jade seal.

As Liu Qi withdrew his true energy, the last ray of fluorescence on the jade seal faded.

She raised her eyes and looked around, and found that everything she could see was gray and yellow.

It seems that the entire territory of Fengdu Ghost Cave has been covered by the dust raised when the mountains collapsed. These fine dusts attracted each other and the majestic vitality that originally permeated the entire underground palace, and finally formed this natural barrier.

Liu Qi silently mobilized his true energy to protect his mouth and nose, thinking that without top-notch cultivation, it would be difficult for him to hold out here for too long.

She raised her eyes and looked upwards. Although it was also gray and yellow, as her true energy continued to probe upwards, she also found out the limit of the dust coverage, which was about fifty feet upwards.

Liu Qi retracted his gaze and glanced at his feet, then took a step forward.

Rustling...

Shortly after she left, the black soil where she had just stood moved slightly, and then a black vine-like object quietly poked out.

rustling...

The vine-like object coiled in place for a while like a nimble snake, then suddenly raised half of its body and reached in the direction where Liu Qi left.

rustling...

The ground around the vine began to shake violently.

The strange aura behind her did not escape Liu Qi's perception. She even knew who was doing these little moves behind her.

After all, he had just destroyed someone's nest, and the man was just an idiot without any intelligence, so Liu Qi was too lazy to bother with him.

The reason why she hasn't left here is to find Gu Liancheng's trace.

Before the mountain range completely collapsed and swallowed her, Liu Qi had already caught up with Gu Liancheng. During the fight between the two, almost the entire underground palace was burned down. Coupled with the murderous intent with the sword energy of Jueling that continued to overflow from Liu Qi, the sacred tree that had been struggling to support the entire underground palace was finally unable to save the situation.

"What a pity." Liu Qi murmured to himself with some regret, "The last knife failed to kill him."

Even now, there is still one thing that Liu Qi finds difficult to understand, which is why Gu Liancheng can master so many peerless martial arts, and each of them has been practiced to the level of perfection.

The Dragon Yuan Tian Gang, which has been passed down from generation to generation in the Beggars' Sect, has an air of arrogance when Gu Liancheng displays it, which makes him feel like no one else can do it better than him. It is absolutely impossible to imitate it deliberately.

But in the next move, he used Taiyin Shiri without any hesitation, a magical skill that was completely different from Longyuan Tiangang.

There are also the Six Styles of Burning Heaven. Except for the Yi Mu Divine Art and the martial arts of Hou Tu Palace in the Seventh Level, the other five magical skills are all used by him to perfection.

Just now in the underground palace, Gu Liancheng even used the Ruoshui sword technique of the Ruoshui Palace. Liu Qi thought that after the Nangong family was exterminated, the Ruoshui Palace lineage would be cut off.

But no matter how Gu Liancheng changes, Liu Qi can defeat him with just one sword.

So when the two of them fought in the underground palace just now, Gu Liancheng seemed to have all kinds of fancy skills, but in fact he did not pose any threat to Liu Qi. Instead, he himself was in danger several times under Liu Qi's fierce attack.

If it weren't for the protection of the Tianji Armor and the existence of the Bu Tian Stone, Liu Qi could at least let him change his name and become a one-armed dragon from then on.

Gu Liancheng seemed to realize that Liu Qi's attack was too fierce, so every time Liu Qi wanted to decide life or death with one move, he would use the terrain to slip away and avoid the fight.

Finally, Liu Qi forced him into a corner and the entire underground palace suddenly collapsed, burying the two of them deep underground.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, the imperial seal in Liu Qi's arms responded. With the power of the imperial seal to move mountains and shake the earth, Liu Qi could move freely underground, but to her surprise, Gu Liancheng, who was supposed to be buried with him, disappeared.

Does he also have a treasure like the imperial seal?

You have to know that they were at the very bottom of the entire underground palace. The moment the underground palace collapsed, an entire mountain range sank. The layer of soil pressing on them was at least a hundred feet thick. The top masters were indeed extraordinary, but they were still mortals at heart.

Without the help of the imperial seal, Liu Qi would not be completely sure of escaping.

There might be some martial arts similar to the ability to escape underground in the inheritance of the Seventh Heaven's Houtu Palace, but it's a pity that Gu Liancheng doesn't seem to know any of the Houtu Palace's martial arts.

In addition to the Yimu Divine Art and the magical skills of Houtu Palace, he has learned all the other five skills. Judging from the fact that Huang Li Zhenren possessed the Yimu Divine Art, Gu Liancheng did have the secrets of the Yimu Divine Art, but why didn't he learn the Yimu Divine Art that Liu Qi was good at?
With endless doubts, Liu Qi walked slowly through the gray-yellow dust and fog, and finally found some clues near the edge of the deep pit.

As Liu Qi slowly approached, a bottomless hole suddenly appeared in her sight.

Liu Qi half-crouched at the entrance of the cave, reached out and touched the moist soil at the edge of the cave, and could clearly feel the cold and sharp breath in the soil. This was the breath released by Liu Qi in the underground palace. Because she had integrated the Jueling sword energy into her body, this breath naturally contained an extremely strong destructive power.

It was precisely because this destructive force continued to disintegrate the soil invaded by Liu Qi's true qi that this devastating disaster occurred.

But what about this hole?

Liu Qi just released his true energy in a flooding manner, and this method is almost likely to lead to the current situation.

Liu Qi released her true Qi and sensed a little bit. The bottom of the cave was about 120 feet away from where she was. It was almost one of the deepest locations in the entire underground palace, and it happened to be where Liu Qi and Gu Liancheng were buried.

Liu Qi suddenly stood up and straightened his back.

Or did Gu Liancheng escape?
No!

How did he leave!

Liu Qi did not find any remnant of Gu Liancheng's true energy at the edge of the soil.

Could it be possible that he created this passage with just his own hands?

If this is true, there is no need for Liu Qi to argue with the other party.

After all, we are all mortals at heart. How can we play if a Steel Superman suddenly appears?
Just as Liu Qi was about to leave, her eyes suddenly fixed, and then she lowered her eyes to look towards the cave entrance. As her nose twitched slightly, she smelled a faint scent at the bottom of the cave.

It was the smell of blood mixed with a familiar fragrance.

The smell of blood is not uncommon in the pit.

After all, this underground palace was one of the three most desperate places in the past, the Fengdu Ghost Cave. When Liu Qi broke in, he also found that there were many people living in the underground palace. However, most of them lived in the new territory opened up by the lord of the Fengdu Ghost Cave, not the place Liu Qi set foot in this time.

However, this did not affect the fact that they were all crushed under the collapsed mountain range, so the soil in the entire deep pit was constantly emitting a bloody smell.

The reason why Liu Qi stopped was because there was a peculiar fragrance in the bloody smell overflowing from the passage. Although the memory was no longer clear, Liu Qi still remembered the fragrance.

She immediately jumped down towards the cave entrance.

Huhu——

The wind whistled past my ears.

Although the passage was narrow, it was large enough to accommodate Liu Qi's body, and the passage was very straight, so Liu Qi did not need to use any force and just let his body fall down.

hum!
The familiar fragrance in the air came and went, but each time it appeared it was much stronger than the last time.

Liu Qi knew that she was getting closer and closer to her goal.

hum!
As her inner energy surged, Liu Qi's figure suddenly hovered in the vertical downward passage.

As the green light around her became brighter, the darkness before her eyes receded like a tide, and was replaced by a wall formed by moist soil.

Liu Qi's eyes focused, and the true energy in front of him surged. Then the soil on the surface of the wall of the passage instantly scattered, and a hand suddenly appeared from the soil.

It was a hand with five fingers clenched into a fist.

Liu Qi's nose trembled slightly, and he had already smelled the familiar fragrance coming from this hand.

Liu Qi raised his right hand and extended his index finger forward. The moment his fingertips touched that hand, a stream of true energy instantly pulled it out of the soil.

Liu Qi's eyes moved slightly.

Hanging in front of her was a small section of an arm, from the middle of the forearm to the fingers.

At this time, the five fingers of the severed hand had been spread out, and Liu Qi could clearly see the palm that was dyed dark green.

"Liu Er." Liu Qi suddenly called softly.

The owner of this severed hand was none other than Liu Er.

Liu Er was also under the underground palace just now, and Liu Qi was not surprised at all that he died there.

If he appeared in front of Liu Qi alive and well, that would be beyond Liu Qi's expectations.

But the reason why Liu Qi came down and found Liu Er's severed hand was not because his death made Liu Qi feel anything, but because of the pill he crushed before his death, which was the dark green piece on the palm of the severed hand.

The pill that Liu Er crushed before he died was not a panacea, and it was not even glorious. Liu Qi was a little surprised that he actually carried this pill with him.

Back then, Madam Mei taught them many things at Xiliu Villa, and making elixirs for various uses was one of them.

The prototype of the pill that Liu Er crushed should be a green pill the size of a fingernail. This pill is one of the witnesses of Liu Qi's shameful past.

Liu Qi was not good at refining this kind of pill. To be more precise, she was not interested in this trivial skill, so she refined a green hair oil with a faint fragrance. Its effect was roughly equivalent to the knockout drug that was a must-have in the martial arts world at home and when traveling.

Liu Qi didn't know how Liu Er found the pill that she had thrown away so casually. The only thing that puzzled her was why Liu Er insisted on crushing the pill before he died!

Liu Qi frowned and hesitated for a moment, then quietly pushed his right hand forward, and his fingertips finally touched Liu Er's fingers.

Ok?
Her eyes narrowed!
He then quickly withdrew his hand and dissipated the true qi that was wrapped around the severed hand.

sieve!
The severed hand suddenly dropped down, and in the blink of an eye it disappeared into the dark passage.

Liu Qi immediately withdrew his indifferent gaze, and then jumped up!
A stream of light penetrated the thick gray-yellow fog.

Liu Qi's body paused, hanging in mid-air.

She raised her eyes slightly and saw the sky filled with rosy clouds, then lowered her eyes and looked downward. The gray-yellow mist was rolling and surging like waves, looking very scary.

Liu Qi restrained his expression, then spread out his arms slightly, and the true energy in his body quietly condensed.

Boom!

As she slowly passed her hands over the gray-yellow mist, an invisible true energy suddenly surged out from between her hands.

hum-

The whole sky swayed with it.

The gray-yellow fog suddenly dissipated, revealing the vast deep pit below!
