Chapter 34: The Clown

Speaking of the Demon Cult, Li Anran asked about Dongfang Bubai again.

As a result, Feng Qingyang had never heard of Dongfang Bubai, let alone the former leader of the Demon Cult, Ren Woxing.

When he was roaming the world, the Demon Cult was still in power, and Ren Woxing was just a nobody at that time and was not even in his eyes.

Feng Qingyang warned: "If you fight with the Demon Cult, you don't need to worry about other things, just beware of the evil skill 'Star Absorbing Technique'. This evil skill can absorb the opponent's internal energy into your own body and use it for your own benefit. It is extremely vicious."

Li Anran nodded and kept the matter in mind.

After talking about the Demon Cult, the two had nothing else to talk about, so they started discussing martial arts.

Li Anran is far superior to Feng Qingyang in internal strength, and only half as good as Feng Qingyang in martial arts skills, but he is far inferior to Feng Qingyang in terms of experience in fighting the enemy.

After the exchange, Li Anran also gained a lot.

As for Feng Qingyang, his gains were even greater.

Although Feng Qingyang's internal strength has reached perfection, it is all accumulated over time.

Li Anran did not keep anything to himself. He not only told Feng Qingyang all his experiences in cultivating internal energy, but also gave him his improved version of Hunyuan Gong.

——The stronger Feng Qingyang is, the better the sparring effect will be, and the more experience he will gain.

Feng Qingyang didn't know all this. He was deeply moved by Li Anran's trust in him, so he passed on to Li Anran the light-body skills he had learned while traveling around the world.

Although this lightness skill can only be considered superior and cannot be considered peerless, it is much better than the lightness skill of Huashan Sect.

Before I knew it, the sky had gradually darkened.

Feng Qingyang was so hungry that his chest was sticking to his back. He waved his hand towards Li Anran and said, "Boy, you go back first. I will go to Siguo Cliff to find you tomorrow."

After saying that, he used his Qinggong skills and disappeared in a flash.

Feng Qingyang has lived in seclusion in the back mountains of Huashan for so many years. It is naturally impossible for him to live on dew and air, and rely entirely on wild fruits to fill his stomach.

He retired from the underworld and no longer had any contact with anyone in the underworld. He still needed to go down the mountain to buy clothes and food on weekdays.

After Linghu Chong knew about this, he expressed his willingness to serve Feng Qingyang day and night, but was rejected by Feng Qingyang.

Although Feng Qingyang was willing to interact with Li Anran and Linghu Chong, he was unwilling to have anything to do with other people in Huashan. He was even unwilling to touch the food that Li Anran and Linghu Chong brought from Huashan Sect.

Li Anran watched Feng Qingyang walk away, then turned back to the Cliff of Repentance, only to find that the Cliff was pitch black and Linghu Chong was not there.

Li Anran's heart skipped a beat, and he instantly realized that something must have happened in the Huashan Sect, which was why Linghu Chong had ignored his master's ban and left the Cliff of Repentance without permission.

at this time.

Suddenly, some extremely subtle sounds like stones falling to the ground were heard in the cave of Siguo Cliff.

Li Anran was stunned. The cave on the Siguo Cliff was only about ten meters deep, but the sound came from a very far distance, more than fifty or sixty meters.

Li Anran realized something was wrong and walked quickly into the cave. He saw a big hole in the wall at the deepest part of the cave.

The entrance to the cave was dark and extended diagonally downwards, and it was unknown how deep it was.

Li Anran found the torch that Linghu Chong usually used for lighting, thrust it into the cave, activated the Zixia magic skill, and looked inside.

I saw a narrow hole extending downwards. The stone walls on all four sides of the hole were very smooth and angular, with obvious traces of knife and axe carving.

There were a few fresh traces at the bottom, unlike the surrounding area which was covered with a thick layer of dust.

It was obvious that someone had just entered, and it wasn't just one person.

Li Anran was a man of great skill and courage, and he didn't care whether it was Linghu Chong inside or not. He picked up the torch and went in.

After walking a short distance, they saw a skeleton lying on the ground. The clothes on its body had decayed and turned to dust. Beside it were two large axes, which were still shining brightly in the light of the torches.

The skeleton's left hand was broken into pieces, but the gaps were very clean. It should be that someone who came in before him stepped on the skeleton's arm and crushed the skeleton's bones.

Li Anran gently weighed the axe, which was about forty pounds and had an extremely sharp blade.

Looking at the surrounding walls, there were also cuts all over them from being chopped by sharp axes.

"He was trapped underground and tried to carve a path with an axe, but died of exhaustion at the last moment."

Li Anran instantly thought of the ten elders of the Demon Cult.

Although Yue Buqun did not tell him how the Five Mountains Sword Sect had set up traps to kill the Ten Elders of the Demon Sect, but in a place like Huashan, the only trap that could be set was the Rockfall Cave.

Li Anran was thinking when he suddenly heard an ecstatic voice coming from the front.

"These are the Five Divine Swords that were lost in my Hengshan sect! Great! Great! Hahahahahaha!"

"The eternal human dragon, overlapping green and blue, jade entering the Tianchi Lake... This is the swordsmanship of my Songshan School!" "Our Taishan School's Taishan Eighteen Bends!"

……

Songshan School, Taishan School, Hengshan School, why are they here?

Li Anran felt a little strange.

He extinguished the torch and walked forward. After walking another twenty feet or so, he saw some faint light in front of him. He turned left along the corridor and the view in front of him suddenly opened up.

A huge stone cave, large enough to accommodate thousands of people, appeared in front of them. Torches had been lit inside, making it brightly lit.

There were three strange middle-aged men who were staring at the patterns carved on the wall, dancing and gesticulating in ecstasy.

There is a line of small characters next to those patterns, such as "Fan Song and Zhao He broke the Hengshan swordsmanship here" or "Zhang Chengyun and Zhang Chengfeng broke the Huashan swordsmanship", and so on.

In addition to these three living people, there were seven skeletons in the cave, some sitting or lying, with weapons beside them.

There was a large rock protruding from the ground several feet above the ground. Under the rock, there were sixteen large characters carved on the wall: "The Five Mountains Sword Sect, shameless and vulgar, unable to win in a duel, plotting against others and harming others."

Each character is about a foot square and carved into the rock with an extremely sharp weapon, reaching a depth of several inches.

The sixteen characters are full of edges and corners, and seem to be on the verge of a tense situation.

There were also countless small characters carved next to it, all of which were curse words such as "despicable scoundrel", "extremely shameful", "moron", "cowardly", etc. The wall was full of abusive sentences.

Sure enough it was them!
Li Anran immediately understood.

The Five Mountains Sword Sect originally used a trick to seal the ten elders of the Demon Cult in this stone cave.

The ten elders of the Demon Cult tried to break through the mountain wall to escape, but failed and in despair, they carved these patterns and words to vent their anger.

Li Anran glanced at the carvings on the wall and almost laughed out loud.

It was true that the ten elders of the Demon Cult could break the Five Mountains Sword Technique, but when they were breaking the moves they used sticks, meteor hammers, all kinds of strange weapons and even imaginary weapons!
how?

When you fight with others, you carry eighteen kinds of weapons with you, and you can replace them instantly?

A bunch of clowns! Fury of incompetence!
Li Anran curled her lips.

The only question now is, how did the three people from Hengshan School, Songshan School, and Taishan School know about this matter? And how did they find this place?
Li Anran was too lazy to think about it, so he asked, "Hey, how did you find this place?"

Lu Bai and the other two were ecstatic about having found the lost sword techniques of their respective sects, when they suddenly heard a stranger talking. They were frightened and looked up to see Li Anran walking towards them.

"Are you Yue Buqun's eldest disciple Li Anran?!"

Lu Bai had never seen Li Anran, but in the intelligence sent back by Laudeno, he commented that Li Anran was "as handsome as Pan An, unparalleled in the world."

At that time he thought that Laudno was narrow-minded, but now he realized that his words were not an exaggeration at all.

Lu Bai didn't know Li Anran's strength and didn't want to take any risks. He shouted at Lu Lianrong and Tianfeng Taoist: "Kill him! Don't let him leak the news!"

Although Lu Lianrong and Tianfeng Taoist were somewhat reluctant, they dared not disobey. They looked at each other, drew their swords, and attacked Li Anran from the left and right.

Li Anran didn't dare to use Qi to control the sword.

These two people are too weak!
He was afraid that if he killed them all with one sword, he would not be able to get any information.

Li Anran controlled the strength and swung the sword lightly.

when!
There was a crisp sound.

Two broken swords flew out.

Lu Lianrong and Taoist Tianfeng didn't even see how Li Anran made his move. They just felt an incomparably vast amount of true energy coming from the sword. The two of them flew back at a faster speed than when they came, and hit the wall heavily.

Lu Bai: “!!!”

Lu Bai, who was staring at Li Anran and trying to find Li Anran's flaws, almost popped his eyes out.

This, this is it?
Lu Bai's breathing stagnated, and he suddenly remembered what Linghu Chong said in Zhengqi Hall: "I am a million miles away from my senior brother." He swallowed hard. Could it be that Linghu Chong was telling the truth? !
Seeing Li Anran approaching, Lu Bai shouted in a timid tone, "Li Anran! I am Lu Bai, the junior brother of Zuo Lengchan, the leader of the Five Mountains Alliance. You..."

"Crane Hand Lu Bai?"

Li Anran interrupted him and raised his eyebrows: "You were the one who injured my third junior brother in Hengshan City?"

Lu Bai shuddered all over.

He was nicknamed "Crane Hand" and his palm skills were so powerful that he could shake the world. But at this moment, he felt that his hands were heavier than Mount Tai. They were shaking uncontrollably and he couldn't even lift them.
