Chapter 239 Shadow!
Zhonghua Pavilion.
at this time,
Pale-faced and wounded, Han Cang knelt on one knee, not daring to look up at Xiao Bieli.
Xiao Bieli looked at Han Cang and said:
"So, the Heavenly Demon Sect is quite powerful, and its leader has even survived nine tribulations?"
Han Cang nodded repeatedly:
"Not bad!"
"Although we did not see the Heavenly Demon Lord this time, someone in the Posuo Prefecture has been undergoing tribulation recently. Although it was not as big as when you underwent your tribulation, it was still quite significant. Someone must be undergoing their ninth tribulation."
"According to what the master said, the supervisor has probably already surpassed the ninth level of the Thunder Tribulation. The only one undergoing tribulation in Posuo Prefecture is the Heavenly Demon Lord."
"I thought the Heavenly Demon Lord had disappeared, but I never expected that Yun Cang, the genius who has become famous in Posuo Prefecture during this period, is actually the reincarnation of the Heavenly Demon Lord."
"Moreover, some experts who have never been seen before have appeared in the Heavenly Demon Sect. There are even several unknown first-rank experts. If it weren't for your power, Master, and the fact that experts from the nine sects and six gangs came out together, I'm afraid we wouldn't even be able to hold our ground."
"However, they don't seem to have any intention of fighting their way out of Possa Province. I wonder what that means!"
Xiao Bieli stroked his chin and asked:
Have you seen anyone from the Imperial Observatory?
During the battle of the imperial city, although the Imperial Observatory was destroyed, only a few insignificant people died inside. None of the corpses of the experts from the Imperial Observatory that Guan Xuanyun mentioned were found.
Han Cang shook his head:
"I have met several experts from the Imperial Observatory who were proficient in celestial secrets before, but I have not seen any in Posuo Prefecture."
“I also contacted acquaintances in Posuo Prefecture, but I didn’t get many clues. Right now, the entire Heavenly Demon Sect is like an iron barrel, and we can’t find out any specific information about it.”
Xiao Bieli nodded.
Just then, he looked up and gazed south towards the Zhonghua Pavilion.
Han Cang didn't understand what Xiao Bieli meant, and continued:
"Master, Tantai Tianming has collected some martial arts manuals, including some secret martial arts techniques from powerful forces, and he has asked me to bring them all!"
"The smaller box contains all the world's finest sword techniques, but most of them are just ordinary ones, which I suppose you wouldn't be interested in, Master."
After saying that, Han Cang gestured to his men to lift up the two large boxes.
Xiao Bieli waved his hand, and the two boxes opened automatically.
It was filled with countless secret manuals, displayed as if they were free.
"Put it away first!" Xiao Bieli said, frowning.
"Why is Xun here during the day too?"
"You're injured?"
……
After a stick of incense.
Looking at the miserable and wretched Bai Tianxun and Guan Xuanyun, Xiao Bieli asked in confusion:
"You've been hiding in the East Sea, yet the Supervisor still came looking for you?"
Guan Xuanyun quickly said:
"It's not the supervisor, it's his shadow!"
"Very mysterious, with superb martial arts skills!"
Xiao Bieli:
"How strong?"
Guan Xuanyun looked at Bai Tianxun. He couldn't be sure how high the Shadow's martial arts were, but Bai Tianxun had fought with the Shadow before. Although he only used one strike, he ended up in this state.
Bai Tianxun said in a deep voice:
"I don't know, but if he wanted to kill me, I couldn't withstand a single blow!"
“You can take a look at this wound. Guan Xuanyun said it’s what he wanted you to see.”
After saying that, Bai Tianxun raised his left hand, which was still bleeding.
Xiao Bieli shook his head:
"There's nothing to see here. Any person at the ninth level of the lightning tribulation stage can do that!"
Guan Xuanyun quickly said:
"And there's also this letter!"
"No, these words!"
After saying that, he quickly took out a piece of paper with a sentence written on it from his bosom and handed it to Xiao Bieli.
Xiao Bieli took the paper and unfolded it.
A murderous intent leaped from the paper and soared into the sky.
Both Xun and Guan Xuanyun retreated repeatedly, their eyes filled with horror.
This killing intent was on a completely different level from what they had sensed before.
If their killing intent was this strong, they would probably have been injured just by seeing the words above.
"interesting!"
"His killing intent carried a hint of pure Yang energy!"
"Is this a warning that they also have experts at the tenth level of the Thunder Tribulation Realm on their side?"
Xiao Bieli shook his head, and the paper in his hand instantly turned to dust.
"Since you have ten levels of lightning tribulation, why aren't you making a move? Is it because you lack confidence, or do you have other uses for me?"
"However, I hate being threatened the most!"
"If you hadn't sent me this paper, I might have been able to stay in the Zhonghua Pavilion for a few more years. Now I want to see if I'll die if I leave the Zhonghua Pavilion!"
After saying that, Xiao Bieli took a step and left the Zhonghua Pavilion!
Suddenly, a terrifying aura emanated from the bamboo forest dozens of miles away.
"Hmph!" Xiao Bieli snorted coldly.
"They hid it quite well!"
"Why bother going through all this trouble when you've already come all this way?"
In just a dozen breaths, Xiao Bieli appeared in the bamboo forest.
Not far from Xiao Bieli stood a figure shrouded in a black robe, making it impossible to discern his features.
The man in black robes looked at Xiao Bieli and said in a deep voice:
"Go back now, and I can pretend nothing happened!"
"Otherwise, I'll have to severely injure you and then throw you back!"
"Severely injured?" Xiao Bieli laughed.
"So, it seems I'm also part of your play?"
The man in black robes:
"Don't be ungrateful. If you weren't somewhat useful, you wouldn't be alive today!"
"What is its function?" Xiao Bieli asked without being ashamed.
He was genuinely puzzled. The black-robed man in front of him was clearly the shadow beside the supervisor. If even the shadow was at the tenth level of the Thunder Tribulation, then the supervisor's martial arts must be no weaker than the shadow's.
Otherwise, it would be going against the natural order!
Since there are two people at the tenth level of the lightning tribulation, why not just attack him directly?
Shadow snorted coldly:
"Since the Supervisor has ordered you to stay in the Zhonghua Pavilion for twenty years, then you shall stay in the Zhonghua Pavilion!"
"Twenty years is nothing but a blink of an eye for beings like you and me!"
"Pah!" Xiao Bieli spat, displeased.
"What do you mean by 'people like you and me'?"
"You're so old, how dare you compare yourself to me?"
"Come on, let me test you. Just how good are you, the one who's always been by the supervisor's side?"
I originally wanted to get some information out of the shadow, but the old man's attitude was bad, so I decided to beat him into submission first, and then interrogate him.
The moment he finished speaking, Xiao Bieli made his move.
He didn't draw his sword, but instead pushed out a palm strike.
This palm strike looked like a casual, harmless blow, but the moment Xiao Bieli unleashed it, the bamboo forest stretching for dozens of miles bent low.
"Stubborn!"
"You must know that even among the ten levels of lightning tribulation, there are differences!"
The man in black spoke coldly, and in an instant, he transformed into more than a dozen figures. His hands formed claws, his five fingers spread wide, and his sharp claws filled the air. It seemed that the claw shadows covered the entire bamboo forest, but in reality, all his skills were contained in his two sharp claws.
This attack, though seemingly scattered, was in fact a condensation of the power of all the claw shadows into a single point.
Even a master of external martial arts who has cultivated a physical body like an Arhat will have his tendons and bones broken and his body pierced through if he takes a hit.
