Chronicles of Celestial Origins

At night, two rays of light fell in front of the temple, revealing the figures of a burly man and a man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks.

"Two master uncles are here, what are your orders?" The disciples on duty outside the hall came forward and saluted.

The burly man turned over his hand and took out a document: "This is the order from Xuande Palace. We are here to escort Tang Ning from the Intelligence Department."

The disciple took the document and glanced at it: "Two junior uncles, please."

The three of them arrived at the interrogation room. The disciple took out the flag and lit it, a ray of light shot out. The stone door opened and two men entered. Tang Ning opened her eyes.

The burly man handed him the document in his hand and said: "Senior Brother Tang, we are from the Prison Department. We are here to escort you to Wujianya. This is the order of Xuande Palace."

Tang Ning took the document and saw that it read: Tang Ning, a disciple of the Intelligence Department, leaked information, secretly manipulated the Demon Sect, and violated the rules by contacting potential personnel. Anyone who violates the laws of the sect will be sentenced to ten years in prison by the town government department, the supervisory department, and the discipline department, and will be executed immediately without any mistakes.

The upper part has the seal of Xuande Hall and the signature of Luo Qingshui, and the lower part has the seal of the Town Office, the Supervision Department, the Discipline Department and the signatures of the deacons of the three departments.

"Senior Brother Tang, I'm offended." The man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks stepped forward and tapped him a few times. Three streams of spiritual power were injected into his body, sealing his Linghai Point, Yongquan Point, and Niwan Palace.

Tangning didn't resist at all and allowed these three spiritual powers to seal her.

"Senior Brother Tang, let's go!"

A group of three people left the main hall, and the two people carried him with their spiritual power and soared into the air. Before it was time to have a cup of tea, they arrived in front of a steep peak thousands of feet tall.

This peak stands like a huge stone pillar holding up the sky, with no grass growing on it.

There is a huge ravine on the top of the mountain, about one foot wide, extending to the bottom of the mountain. It looks like a sharp sword cutting down, dividing the whole mountain into two. Standing on the top of the mountain and looking down, you can't see it. At the end of the abyss, you can't even see inside.

The two escaped and carried him down into the abyss. Along the way, Tangning could faintly hear shrill screams and hysterical roars. The prisoners here were all disciples who had committed crimes, and some were even sentenced to a hundred years. Even life imprisonment. Under this dark abyss, over time, some people will inevitably become insane and go crazy.

The three of them continued to fall, and Tang Ning's spiritual power and consciousness were sealed away. She was like a blind man in the abyss, unable to see, and her ears were filled with the sound of shouts, wails and moans.

After a while, the falling figure suddenly stopped. The man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks pressed on the stone wall. The stone door between the cliffs opened and a room appeared inside.

The burly man's spiritual power wrapped him up and entered the inner room, and said: "Senior Brother Tang, this is the Wujianya Prison. From now on, a disciple will send you Bigu Pill every month. Once the ten-year prison term is over, you can left."

Tang Ning felt her feet on the ground, knowing that she was in prison. It was dark inside, she couldn't see her fingers, and couldn't see anything clearly.

There was a faint sound of wailing, moaning and roaring in his ears, and the surroundings were filled with a rotten and disgusting smell. Hearing the words of the burly man, he didn't say anything.

The two men from the Prison Department exited the room, only to hear a rumble, and the stone door closed again.

Tangning slowly sat down while touching the stone wall. There was a piece of dampness within his reach, and several cowardly insects crawled along his arms and body.

"Tang Ning, I said I won't let you go even if you are a ghost." Suddenly, an angry shout rang in her ears. Tang Ning suddenly opened her eyes, but she saw a gray mist shrouding the surroundings. The person in front of her had disheveled hair and split eyes. The man with bleeding from his orifices walked toward him with his bloody hands. It was Dou Bolun, Dou's patriarch.

"Tang Ning, you also have this day, you never imagined it! Heaven's reincarnation, today you fall into my hands." Another Dou Bolun from behind said with disheveled hair, split eyelids, and bleeding from all his orifices.

"I remember when you coaxed me to help you catch Dou Wencai, how did you agree to me?" said Dou Bolun from the left.

"How could my children of the Dou family be so innocent? What crimes they had committed, yet you killed them all, even the babies in their infancy." Dou Bolun, the one on the right, said.

In the blink of an eye, Dou Bolun's figures were densely packed around him, with disheveled hair, split eyelids, and bleeding from his orifices, and they were approaching him step by step.

Tang Ning looked left and right, feeling horrified. She felt the world was spinning, her figure fell back, and her consciousness fell into a blur.

At the Zhongzhi Peak Cave Mansion, Lu Guang returned to the room. Zhou Yingxue asked with concern on his face: "How is it? Is Uncle Tong summoning you this time about the Intelligence Department?"

Lu Guang smiled slightly and nodded: "The above has already appointed me as the deacon of the Intelligence Section. It will be officially announced in a few days."

Zhou Yingxue was overjoyed when she heard this. She knew that her husband's biggest wish all along was to be able to sit on the position of deacon of the Intelligence Department. This had almost become a knot in his heart, and today he finally got his wish.

Although Lu Guang's face was calm these days, she knew that he was quite anxious inside. Although their biggest rival Tangning had been successfully taken down by them, this had obviously offended Tong Quan'an and Luo Qingshui behind him. Will he No one is sure whether he will intervene forcefully due to anger or retaliate in equal measure.

Now that the big stone hanging under their hearts has finally fallen to the ground, both of them are filled with joy.

Zhou Yingxue said: "Finally, the appointment has been made. I was a little worried that Uncle Tong and Uncle Luo would interfere."

Lu Guang smiled and said, "There is no reason for them to intervene. Uncle Shi will not agree. However, we must be more careful in the future and don't get caught. Otherwise, Tangning's today will be our tomorrow."

Zhou Yingxue said: "It's a pity that he was only sentenced to ten years in prison. If we follow the sect's rules, these crimes are enough to prevent him from turning over. Now there are more variables."

Lu Guang said: "With his cultivation and the support of Master Tong and Master Luo, it is good to be sentenced to ten years. If we really follow the sect rules, there are several people in the sect who are clean."

"For a disciple with such a reputation like him, as long as he is not colluding with the Demon Sect or betraying the sect's interests, it is impossible to strictly govern him according to the rules."

"It's just using the Demon Sect disciples to intimidate and blackmail the cultivating family. In the final analysis, it's for the sake of one's own cultivation. Such trivial matters are hardly worth mentioning in the eyes of the sect's senior leaders. If it weren't for maintaining the sect's rules and maintaining face, it wouldn't even be worth mentioning. What punishment will be given to him?”

"In any case, he still contributed to the sect. Even if no one protects him, the leader will not punish him too severely. Didn't you see that Uncle Shi didn't say anything during the whole thing? As long as we achieve our goal No need to kill them all."

Zhou Yingxue said: "I'm afraid he won't think so. Ten years later, when he is released after serving his sentence, can he not bear grudges against you and me?"

Lu Guang remained silent.

In front of Luo Qingshui Cave Mansion, a ray of light fell down, revealing the figure of a thin old man with gray beard and hair. He was Kong Min, the deacon of the Prison Department. With a wave of his hand, the talisman disappeared into the thick fog.

Not long after, a ray of light flashed out from inside, and a white-faced man appeared: "Senior Brother Kong, master, please come in."

The two entered the cave and came to the hall. Not long after, footsteps sounded and Luo Qingshui came from outside.

Kong Min stood up and saluted: "Disciple pays homage to my uncle. I don't know what the uncle's instructions are for summoning my disciples."

Luo Qingshui waved his hand: "Sit down!"

"Thank you, uncle."

"Intelligence Department Tangning has been escorted to Wujianya!"

"Yes. Junior Brother Ma and Junior Brother Cheng escorted him in a few days ago. According to the documents, he should be imprisoned for ten years."

"Yes." Luo Qingshui nodded: "How many years have you been practicing?"

"Disciple has passed two hundred and fifty-six years now." Kong Min didn't understand why he suddenly asked about this, so he answered truthfully.

"Two hundred and fifty-six years. It's a pity that with your cultivation progress, you may have no hope of golden elixir in this life."

"My disciple is not very talented. He is able to cultivate to such a state by relying on the sect to cultivate him and relying on his master's uncle Hongfu. How dare he expect to form an elixir?"

Luo Qingshui said: "Over the years, the Jindan monks of our sect have died one after another, and the remaining ones are all getting old! They don't have much life left, and they are just waiting to die."

"The sect has not produced a Golden elixir cultivator for more than a hundred years, and it is quite indifferent. Fortunately, Yin Qingyuan broke through the Golden elixir, which can be regarded as continuing the sect's roots. However, relying on one person alone is a drop in the bucket and will not help."

"Nowadays, the Demon Sect is rampant and is eying with eager eyes. It wants to devour Xuanmen and occupy Xingang. Although the fight against the Demon Sect depends on the lives of disciples like you, the main winner is still the Jindan monks of the sect."

"Both the leader and I are getting old. In future battles with the Demon Sect, we will still have to rely on Yin Qingyuan's generation of newly promoted golden elixir monks to protect the sect. How many people in the sect do you think are expected to form elixirs now? "

Kong Min's thoughts were spinning in his mind. After listening to what he said, he roughly guessed the purpose of summoning him this time, and said: "The formation of pills is extraordinary. There are no less than twenty or thirty monks in the sect in the late stage of foundation building. But there are only a handful of people who are actually practical and capable of forming elixirs. I don’t think there will be more than three or four people.”

"Tell me, who are they?"

"Zhuang Xingqian of the Qingxuan Hall, Jiang Yuhuan of the Forbidden Secrets Department of the Secret Academy, and Tang Ning of the Intelligence Department of the Secret Academy. These three are the eager disciples of the Foundation Establishment generation. Regardless of their strength and skills, they are far superior to others. When they compete with each other, During the confrontation with the Demon Sect, there were many kills, and he became famous for a while, and might have the opportunity to form a pill."

Luo Qingshui nodded and said: "What you said is fair, and it is not much different from what I thought. Forming a pill requires not only strength but also a certain amount of luck. These people are the hope for the sect's future continuation!"

"But now, for some trivial matter, a disciple who has a great chance of forming an elixir has been imprisoned in prison, delaying his cultivation. It is a pity. It is not only a great loss to him personally, but also to the sect."

Kong Min said: "Disciple also feels that it is a pity to be sincere. However, this is the result of a joint trial by the three departments. The conviction has been made and cannot be changed."
