Chronicles of Celestial Origins

The next day, Tang Ning left Dongyang County and traveled day and night to Hedong County.

In front of the majestic cave, he escaped from the light and fell. Soon, a beautiful-looking woman came out, bowed to him, and led him into the inner room.

In the spacious and bright living room, Wei Wentong walked in from the outside.

Tang Ning stood up and bowed her head: "Fellow Daoist Wei, I'm sorry for disturbing you."

"Fellow Taoist Tang, you must have been waiting for a long time! Sorry, there is an important matter that I need to deal with just now."

The two exchanged a few polite words and sat down separately.

"Fellow Daoist Wei, I came today because of the assassination of your disciple. As soon as I came out of seclusion after practicing the exercises, I was summoned by fellow Daoist Zhang. According to what he said, your disciple was killed by Zhang Shilin. As soon as I heard about this, I hurried away. Come on. Fellow Daoist Wei, are you mistaken? Zhang Shilin and I once entered the space rift together and saw him being attacked and killed. How could it be him?" Tang Ning looked shocked and confused.

"Fellow Taoist Tang, look, is this person Zhang Shilin?" Wei Wentong turned his hand and took out a portrait.

"Yes, it's Zhang Shilin, but what's going on? Fellow Daoist Wei, can you tell us in detail how the disciple was assassinated and how you identified the murderer?"

Wei Wentong said slowly: "The bad guy was ambushed in Hongnong County. He was ambushed and killed by a man in the late stage of integration on the way from Hongnong County to Hedong County. It was also a coincidence of God's will that it happened to be Junior Brother Guan Yu, the manager of Liang Wuying of our sect. When he met, he passed by and saw someone fighting in the distance, so he went to investigate, but unfortunately he was a step too late. By the time he arrived, the bad guy had been killed by the murderer. "

"Junior Brother Guan recognized the bad disciple and saw him being killed by an unknown masked man, so he chased him. During the fight, Junior Brother Guan saw his true face. Unfortunately, he did not capture him on the spot and was eventually escaped by him. Lose."

"After I learned about this, I immediately asked Liang Wuying to fully investigate this person. After a preliminary investigation, it was quickly discovered that this person was not a local monk in Liangzhou. With his cultivation level reaching this level, it was easy to find out his origin and rule out Liang I reported the matter to the headmaster of the sect and asked the sect to fully investigate this person. "

"After a period of investigation, it was finally discovered that this person was Zhang Shilin, a disciple of Qingzhou Cangming Sect. Our sect contacted Guizong and asked them to investigate this person's traces. As a result, Guizong claimed that this person had already died."

"After many twists and turns, we finally found out this person's complete information and learned that he died in a space crack while serving in the Qingzhou Alliance Army. The Life Soul Stone he left in the Cangming Sect also proves that he was indeed dead."

"After a rigorous investigation, we learned that Fellow Taoist Tang entered the secret realm of space with Zhang Shilin, and they were accompanied by several other monks from the Qingwu Camp."

"After I learned of this letter, I sent someone to Dongyang County to find out about the situation from you."

"Fellow Taoist Tang, did you see Zhang Shilin die with your own eyes? What happened at that time? Why did Zhang Shilin, who had been confirmed dead, appear in Liangzhou again, and his cultivation level greatly increased, and he killed the bad disciples?"

Tang Ning then truthfully stated the incident about the ruined palace: "I never saw Zhang Shilin's death with my own eyes, I only saw him lying on the ground. But when we returned to the palace again, there was no trace of him inside, so we all concluded that... He was swallowed by the crocodile monster."

After that, he added to himself: "Zhang Shilin's appearance in Liangzhou at this time proves that his body has not been swallowed by the crocodile monster, and the life soul stone left by Cang Ming Sect has been extinguished. There is only one possibility. Zhang Shilin is here His body was taken away from the palace, and he escaped from the space rift. In other words, Zhang Shilin is the mysterious person in the ruins of the palace there. "

While Tang Ning was speaking, she kept looking at Wei Wentong, trying to find some clues from his expression, but there was no fluctuation in his expression from beginning to end.

After hearing what he said, Wei Wentong just nodded slightly: "This is the guess that is most consistent with the known clues, and we think so too. Fellow Taoist Tang, as far as we know, you did not get nothing in that space crack. I heard that you The reason why I broke through from the Fusion Realm to Mahayana in less than six hundred years is because I obtained important items there.”

"That's right, I obtained a treasure map from the crocodile monster guarding the ruins palace, and based on the clues provided on it, I went to an independent space on the Netherworld Island. After that..." Tang Ning repeated what he said about the Qingzhou coalition forces.

Wei Wentong said calmly: "It seems that the ruined palace is really a place of crouching tigers, hidden dragons. Not only did fellow Taoist Tang get such huge benefits from it, but a mysterious and unknown strong man appeared and took away Zhang Shilin. Fellow Taoist Tang, according to In your opinion, who is this person who takes Zhang Shilin’s body?”

"It must be the person hidden in the ruins of the palace. Since it can seize the body of fellow Taoist Zhang, it means that he is also a famous monk. It is hard to say who he is. Logically speaking, there should be no living people in the ruins. That palace is A product of the Fourth to Fifth Epochs, everything inside has weathered, including the original guard’s puppets.”

Tangning kept bringing the topic to the abandoned land to see Wei Wentong's reaction.

"The reason why the crocodile monster can survive there is because its race has reproduced. If there are really living people, it can't be just like this! You have to reproduce to survive."

"Could it be that the soul of the original owner of the ruins is sealed in the palace? But it is impossible for it to survive for millions of years. This is too exaggerated."

Wei Wentong remained calm, with no clues on his face: "No matter who he is, as long as I catch him, he will definitely pay with blood."

"When Fellow Daoist Wei said this, I remembered another thing. I wonder if it is related to this."

"What's up?"

Tang Ning said: "A long time ago, I forgot the specific time. At that time, I only had cultivation cultivation, served in the Qingzhou Alliance Army, and was stationed outside Donglai County. At that time, a dimensional rift also appeared. Due to my low cultivation, No intrusion."

"Later, I heard someone say that there is a ruins inside. The style is that of the fourth or fifth era buildings. Some of the legion monks who broke in at that time encountered a drought demon who had mastered cultivation in the inner room."

"It is rumored that there is a strange sarcophagus in the ruins. One of the fused monks passed out after touching the sarcophagus. The situation is very similar to Zhang Shilin."

"Two different spatial rifts both have buildings from the fourth and fifth eras, and both have a sarcophagus inside. There is also a fusion monk who fainted and fell to the ground after touching the sarcophagus. The sarcophagus in the ruins outside Donglai County There is a large amount of drought demon inside, and there is a strange black shadow inside the ruins sarcophagus I encountered.”

"Don't you think this is a coincidence, Fellow Daoist Wei? I didn't expect that much originally, but Zhang Shilin's appearance made me have to suspect that this may not be an exception. Maybe the monk who was unconscious in the space crack outside Donglai County was also captured. Seized."

Wei Wentong looked thoughtful: "What Fellow Taoist Tang means is that there is an organized gang behavior behind this."

"I'm just guessing, of course there is no actual evidence. Fellow Daoist Wei, why did Zhang Shilin ambush the disciple? Do you know the cause and effect?"

"Zhang Shilin is a monk in Qingzhou. The bad guys have never been to Qingzhou, so there should be no intersection. As for the mysterious man who took Zhang Shilin's body, we don't know his identity, let alone his deep-seated purpose. There is only an intentionality. It is speculated that the reason why he intercepted and killed the bad guys was to attack the Mahayana realm."

"The bad guy has an elixir that can impact the Mahayana realm. Zhang Shilin may have come here for this reason."

"Zhang Shilin was a monk in the early stages of integration when his body was taken away. Now he has reached the level of cultivation?"

"According to Junior Brother Guan, he is a monk in the late stage of integration, and he is estimated to have reached the Great Perfection. I don't know where he got the news. He knew that the evil disciple had the Mahayana Impact Pill on his body, so he became malicious. Junior Brother Guan's fight with him , wounded him, and originally wanted to capture him alive and find out his origins and the mastermind behind it, but I didn’t expect that this man’s skills were extremely weird and he actually escaped from him. "

"So, it's possible that he came here for this."

Tang Ning's mind was spinning. Those who returned from the Abandoned Land were originally strong men in the tribulation stage. However, due to being in the Abandoned Land for too long, the power of their souls had weakened. Therefore, for the sake of safety, after returning, they were all body-seizing and body-merging monks. , this ensures nothing goes wrong. If you seize the body of a Mahayana monk, the risk will be very high.

Since the power of their own souls far exceeds that of the body that was taken away, after the body is taken away, as long as the supply of spiritual energy can keep up, the progress of cultivation will be much faster than that of ordinary combined monks, and they will generally not be restricted by the bottleneck of cultivation.

Only when breaking through the big realm, you need to use the baptism and impact of the power of elixir.

Zhang Shilin originally only had the cultivation level of the initial stage of integration, but he reached the perfection of integration in less than a thousand years. This progress can be regarded as rapid.

If Tangning hadn't had the mark of the great path given by the incarnation of the god of death, she probably wouldn't have reached the state of perfect union by now.

"It's a pity that our sect searched everywhere but could not find him. Maybe he has left Liangzhou and hid in the realm of demons."

"By the way, Fellow Daoist Wei, when did Zhang Shilin ambush the disciple?"

"It's been four or five years now."

"Now that he has obtained the elixir from the disciple to impact the body, he must have broken through to the Mahayana realm at this moment."

"That's not necessarily the case. Junior Brother Guan has seriously injured him, and the injury should not be healed in a few decades. The problem now is that I don't know where he has hidden."

"Fellow Daoist Wei, I have a request, I hope it can be granted."

"Fellow Taoist Tang, please speak."

"I hope to participate in the investigation of Zhang Shilin. Zhang Shilin and I once explored the ruins of the royal palace in the space rift, and Zhang Shilin was kidnapped there. Maybe I can find some clues. In addition, I have a deep understanding of Zhang Shilin's case. I am also very curious about the origin of people’s identities, so I hope fellow Daoist Wei will give me this opportunity.”

Tang Ning was unwilling to let go of the opportunity to contact those who had returned from abandoned places like Tianyuan World. Zhang Shilin was the perfect breakthrough point. He wanted to find out where these people were hiding and what their plans were. He also knew the secrets of the Immortal World and the passages connecting it. Which step has been reached.

Wei Wentong frowned slightly: "I'm afraid this is inconvenient. Now the demons in Hanoi County are ready to move, and the coalition forces are all ready. Fellow Taoist Tang is also a tiger general of the coalition forces. In the last battle, he killed two Mahayana monsters in one fell swoop. Now he has been killed by Liang Daoyou. It is widely praised by the monks in the state."

"You are the flag of our Liangzhou coalition! Leaving the front line at this time will be a huge blow to the morale of the entire coalition."

"I also hope to catch the real culprit who killed the villain and avenge him, but things have to be prioritized. The life of a villain is nothing compared to the safety of Liangzhou."

"Besides, if all the comrades in the Liangzhou Allied Forces knew that I had transferred a tiger general like Taoist Fellow Tang away for personal reasons, they would not agree." (End of Chapter)
