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

Chapter 428 Kunlun’s Desperate Situation
Shiye City is located at the foot of Kunlun Mountain.

It is also the only city near the entire Kunlun Mountains, and as a result, it gathers all forces from the Western Regions.

This time, Changfeng Escort Agency was entrusted by the Western Regions Tantric Buddhism to transport a batch of goods from the Central Plains to Shiye City.

Liu Qi and his party walked in the desert for ten days before finally arriving at the foot of Shiye City in the afternoon of that day.

Near the city gate, you can see people of different ethnic groups dressed in various costumes along the way, including many merchants from the Central Plains.

Although Liu Qi and Liu Jiujiu were wrapped in thick cloaks, their graceful figures still attracted many people's attention. However, when these people saw the escort who was traveling with them, they hurriedly looked away.

The Changfeng Escort Agency is much more famous in the Western Regions than in the Central Plains.

Liu Qi raised his head slightly and could see the crowded city gate in front of him.

Suddenly the team stopped.

Then Liu Qi saw He Wentian, who was walking in front of the team, dismount from his horse. At the same time, a monk in a brown-red robe at the city gate came forward to greet him.

After the two men greeted each other, they immediately started chatting.

But at this moment, Liu Qi keenly noticed that the monk's gaze quickly passed over him.

"Where does the bald donkey who is talking to your chief escort come from?" Liu Qi rode forward and found the escort closest to him and asked.

The escort was obviously a little flustered by Liu Qi's sudden question, but he quickly calmed down and replied respectfully: "It's the Dharma King Mingshan of the Tantric Buddhism."

Another Dharma King.

Liu Qi asked casually, "Is there a Dharma King named Tuoye in the Tantric Buddhism?"

The escort thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "It seems that there is such a Dharma King, but the one in charge of Shiye City is still the Dharma King Mingshan."

Liu Qi felt that he had no grudge against Tantric Buddhism, but just now this Dharma King Mingshan had obviously noticed him.

Liu Qi thought about it and realized that his only connection with Tantric Buddhism was with Dharma King Tuoye who died in Qingjiang Prefecture.

At this time, He Wentian had finished greeting the Dharma King Mingshan. He turned around and waved his hand, signaling everyone to enter the city.

Liu Qi and his three companions continued to follow the escort and entered Shiye City smoothly.

After entering the city, He Wentian waited for Liu Qi and his party by the roadside. When Liu Qi came close, he rode his horse with Liu Qi and said, "Miss Liu, if you want to enter Kunlun Mountain, you only need to leave the city from the north gate and walk along the main road. You can reach the foot of Kunlun Mountain in half a day."

"Thank you."

Liu Qi nodded and thanked him.

Then he said, "I wonder what Chief Escort He is going to do next?"

He Wentian responded, "The darts have been delivered. We will rest here for a day to replenish supplies and return home on time tomorrow morning."

Liu Qi thought for a moment, and then said, "I wonder if your escort agency is willing to take Liu Qi on a mission?"

He Wentian's expression was slightly tense: "I wonder what Miss Liu wants to give as a gift?"

"Alone." Liu Qi turned his head to look at Liu Shijiu who was following behind him, and then said bluntly, "Take her back to Central Plains and send her to the Xu family in Qingjiang Prefecture."

Liu Nineteen showed dissatisfaction upon hearing this, but after thinking about what Liu Qi had told her before, she pursed her lips and turned her head away.

He Wentian glanced at Liu Nineteen, then nodded and said, "Open the door to do business. Since Miss Liu has entrusted you with something, how can I not accept it? I promise to send Miss Nineteen back to the Xu family intact."

Seeing that He Wentian agreed, Liu Qi negotiated a price with him, and then handed Liu Shijiu directly to him. He then took Tianxiang and headed non-stop towards Kunlun Desperate Situation.

……

Late at night on the day when Liu Qi and her companions arrived at Shiye City, the guards on duty at the city gate were half asleep and did not notice a dark shadow flashing into the city like a ghost.

The black shadow moved freely on the deserted paths in the city and came to a temple at the southern end of the city.

Boom!Boom!Boom!
There was a sudden heavy knock on the door in the darkness.

"Who?"

Someone responded, and with the sound of rustling footsteps, someone walked towards the door.

creak-

The temple gate opened a crack, and a dim light shone through the gap.

The young monk behind the door rubbed his sleepy eyes and looked outside in the dim light.

"Strange..." The monk, who found nothing, scratched his head. When he was about to close the door, a hand suddenly stretched out from the darkness and blocked the crack in the door.

"Is Mingshan in the temple?" A hoarse and deep voice suddenly came from the darkness.

Along with the sound, there was also a disgusting stench.

The young monk almost vomited. He tried hard to suppress the churning in his stomach. His body kept shaking as he replied, "The Dharma King...he...he left before dark."

call--

As soon as the young monk finished speaking, a breeze suddenly arose out of nowhere, and the hand that had just blocked the door disappeared, and the temple returned to silence.

……

Liu Qi took Tianxiang out of the north gate of Shiye City and walked forward. The road was gradually covered with ice and snow, and the temperature dropped suddenly. Even the water they carried with them had frozen into ice.

Soon the horse could no longer withstand the rapidly dropping temperature.

Liu Qi knew at this time that they had entered the desperate area of ​​Kunlun, so she simply dismounted and walked, untied the reins of the two horses, and let them go on their own.

"Sister Liu, will I... die here?" Tianxiang breathed heavily, she felt like her heart and lungs were frozen.

Liu Qi walked slowly to Tianxiang's side, and then the true energy in his body surged out to form a stream of energy that enveloped the two of them.

Tianxiang then breathed a sigh of relief.

The reason why Liu Qi wanted to bring Tianxiang with her was purely because she was the host of the "Immortality Elixir". Although the "Immortality Elixir" had been transferred to the body of the Emperor of Heaven, there was still an unbreakable connection between Tianxiang and the Immortality Elixir.

Liu Qi patted Tianxiang on the shoulder and motioned her to move on.

Kunlun Desperate Place is indeed worthy of the word "desperate place". The severe weather alone makes it impossible for ordinary people to venture into it.

Liu Qi even felt the astonishing Yuan Qi of heaven and earth contained in the whistling cold wind around him.

These cold winds continuously impact the qi. Although they do not seem to cause much impact for the time being, if things continue like this, ordinary masters without profound cultivation will probably find it difficult to stay here for long.

As Liu Qi and the others went deeper and deeper, the Yuan Qi of heaven and earth contained in the cold wind became more and more pure, and at the same time, more and more violent.

Liu Qi's internal energy was like a piece of meat emitting a fresh bloody smell, while the cold winds containing the Yuan Qi of heaven and earth around it were like hungry wolves, constantly attacking Liu Qi's internal energy.

hum-

A circle of subtle ripples appeared on the surface of the green energy.

As the ripples spread before her eyes, Tianxiang couldn't help but shrink towards Liu Qi.

Liu Qi's eyes narrowed slightly, and impatience appeared in them.

Passive defense is not her style!
Canglang!

The sound of the sword rose out of nowhere, drowning out the whistling sound of the cold wind. Tianxiang covered her ears with a look of pain.

At the same time, the internal energy in Liu Qi's body suddenly surged several times and formed an internal energy shield about three meters high.

Boom——

The true energy in Liu Qi's body was still gushing out, but the energy seemed to have expanded to the extreme, and the originally uniform spherical surface began to show fluctuations.

hum!
With a muffled sound, the internal energy exploded instantly, turning into a huge green wave that swept out in all directions.

"Zizzizi..."

The cold wind around seemed to have sensed something and made a series of shrill whistling sounds.

Zheng——

At the moment when the huge blue waves surged, a figure jumped high.

He leaped into the air and suddenly swung the dagger in his hand. Countless crescent-shaped blade lights burst out from his body and swept in all directions.

Wherever the sword light passed, the cold wind stopped abruptly.

A huge blue wave swept past, and the snow on the ground melted, revealing the dark brown land.

Bang!

Liu Qi sheathed his sword and slowly fell from mid-air.

At the same time, a murderous aura continued to emanate from his body.

This solemn and murderous atmosphere replaced the cold wind and enveloped the land on all sides.

boom!
After Liu Qi landed, she suddenly felt something. She immediately turned her head and saw a red aura rising into the sky from a towering snow-capped mountain in the distance.

Empty mulberry!

Liu Qi then grabbed the collar of Tianxiang, who was a little dazed, and took a step forward, then rushed towards the snow-capped mountains.

On the top of the snow-capped mountain, there was a square and very regular platform. In the center of the platform, Kong Sang was standing with her hands behind her back. A hot breath was constantly gushing out of her body, and her beautiful eyes were fixed on the direction where Liu Qi was.

On one side of the platform, a young man in a Taoist robe stood side by side with Zhou Mi.

The man's true energy enveloped the two of them, blocking out the cold wind outside.

"Liu Qi is here?" Zhou Mi asked with sparkling eyes.

The man in the Taoist robe nodded expressionlessly: "Such abundant and violent killing intent, she is here."

Zhou Mi's eyes turned and he said softly, "With Liu Qi here, if the three of you join forces, you might have a chance to take her down."

The man's face darkened instantly, and then he shook his head: "I'm afraid... No, Xiao Lang's body is fused with her own and that person's martial arts will at the same time. To be frank, her realm has exceeded the limit of the world."

"coming!"

Suddenly, Kong Sang, who was standing with his hands behind his back, restrained his breath and looked at the figure flying towards him in the air.

Liu Qi fell from the sky and landed on the platform.

Before she stood still, she saw Zhou Mi beside the man in Taoist robe waving at her happily.

"You are finally here." Kong Sang smiled brightly at Liu Qi.

Liu Qi's gaze moved to the man in Taoist robes, who was also looking at Liu Qi. The two looked at each other, and the man in Taoist robes nodded slightly.

The man in Taoist robe was Xiao Qingshan.

Seeing that Liu Qi ignored him, Kong Sang blinked at him and asked, "Did that old man Gu Liancheng come to you?"

Liu Qi nodded, and then continued: "He went to the capital, probably to look for her."

Liu Qi looked at Zhou Mi again.

“Hahaha…” Kong Sang laughed heartily, “I’m afraid this old fox didn’t expect that we brought Miss Zhou here as well.”

Xiao Qingshan also said expressionlessly: "It is indeed not an easy task to hide it from Gu Liancheng."

"Don't say so much." Kong Sang stepped forward and said to Liu Qi, "If Gu Liancheng finds out that Zhou Mi is not in the capital, he will surely come back soon. We don't have much time."

……

Liu Qi followed them to a cave halfway up the mountain.

After entering the cave, Xiao Qingshan sealed the entrance with his internal energy.

As the breath in Kongsang's body surged out, the temperature in the cave rose rapidly and soon reached a comfortable temperature.

At this point, several people withdrew their Qi in tacit understanding.

There were still some remnants of a campfire in the cave, which seemed to indicate that Zhou Mi and her friends had stayed here for quite some time.

Kong Sang lit the bonfire with his Qi while chattering, "We have been looking for this good place for a long time. As long as someone seals the cave entrance with Qi every two hours, the knife-like cold wind outside will not be able to get in."

Liu Qi sat down and asked, "Was the desperate situation in Kunlun before as bad as it is now?"

Kong Sang smiled gently at Liu Qi after hearing this: "You also discovered it."

"That's right. Although the climate in Kunlun Desolate Land was also very bad before, it was probably not even one percent of what it is now."

"We have seen more than thirty bodies of herbalists along the way."

"Don't underestimate these herbalists. They have been collecting medicinal herbs in Kunlun for generations and have long been accustomed to the harsh environment here."

"It's a pity that the heaven and earth primordial energy here has become more active than ever before. The cold winds containing the pure heaven and earth primordial energy are simply not something that ordinary people can resist." Kong Sang sighed faintly, "Even the top masters probably won't be able to hold on for long."

Liu Qi's eyes narrowed slightly when he heard this, and he immediately turned to look at Zhou Mi who was sitting next to him, and then asked: "Xiao Lang...what's going on?"

Zhou Mi's expression was somewhat complicated. She pursed her lips tightly, thought for a moment, and sighed softly, "She must have realized that someone wanted to take the Nine Cauldrons, so she found this place before she died."

"The Kunlun Desolate Land was formed after the Tongtian Road fell in ancient times. The remains of my Canghai ancestor were suppressed in this Kunlun land vein."

"Anyway, I don't know what's going on. The martial arts will of our ancestors has remained until now and has merged with Xiao Lang."

"Xiao Lang is now guarding the only way to the Kunlun Earth Vein, blocking any creatures that want to set foot on the Kunlun Earth Vein."

Kong Sang took over Zhou Mi's words: "Gu Liancheng forced his way in once, and the aftermath of the fight between the two almost covered the entire Kunlun Mountains. It was at that time that the heaven and earth primordial energy of the entire Kunlun Mountains began to become abnormally active."

"The two fought for less than ten breaths before Gu Liancheng retreated from the Kunlun Earth Vein in a panic."

"He didn't know that Miss Zhou had also come here, so he approached me to join forces with him to enter the Kunlun vein."

Kong Sang's face gradually showed a solemn expression: "Her Cang Hai Heng Liu is very scary, even scarier than Xiao Qifeng!"

"Really?" Liu Qi replied calmly.

After hearing what Kongsang said, she wanted to see it for herself.
