Tianwei Chapter 228: Emerging into Prominence (3)

The reddish-blue light was like a neon light floating in the night sky, rapidly expanding between his palms. After the old Taoist shouted "Go", his palms had already been fiercely pressed on the corpse on the ground.
In the void space, no matter how powerful you are, as long as you cannot exceed the limits of heaven and earth, you cannot break through the rules given by space. Therefore, the earth-raising corpse was not hurt, but was pushed forward by this great force.
The old Taoist kept his mouth shut, stepped on the ground continuously, and the two-color light between his palms became brighter and brighter. In the end, the corpses were almost submerged by the light.
After I pulled them both out of the corpse-raising ground, I was about to ask where they were going, but I saw the old Taoist figure flash and come to the left side of the corpse-raising ground, and slap it with both palms again.
I immediately understood what he meant, turned around, and ran to the left again.
The magic weapon consumed a lot of Taoist power. While running, the old Taoist had already slapped hundreds of palms. Every time he slapped, I felt like someone was drawing blood. The empty space trembled rapidly, and I felt my forehead getting hotter and hotter. Gradually, it was a little swollen and painful.
At this time, we were just about one kilometer away from the corpse-keeping site.
I looked back and saw that the people from the Secret Corpse Vein were not chasing us. After all, we hid in the void space, and no one knew where we went.
At this moment, the old Taoist suddenly stopped beating the corpse. He shook his sleeves, threw out a few pills floating in the air, and shouted: Withdraw the spell, cut off the hand with Taoist magic!
After saying this, he stepped on the corpse's body and jumped high, stretched his neck in mid-air and swallowed the pills. This high-tech and high-difficulty action was amazing to watch. This old man, it's a waste of talent if he doesn't go to the circus.
Of course, I didn't forget what he said while I was amazed. I immediately pulled out the Void Dao Fa and returned to the real world.
The earth-raising corpse had been suppressed by the old Taoist priest and flew forward involuntarily, never having a chance to show its power. As soon as its feet touched the ground, it roared . A stream of yellow gas gushed out from the ground, and my face turned pale immediately, because I suddenly remembered what the old Taoist priest had said before, that the earth-raising corpse was the darling of the earth, and once its feet touched the ground, it would be as indestructible and unmovable as the earth.
However, at this moment, the old Taoist who was still falling in the air slapped down with both palms at the same time. What surprised me was that he did not slap the corpse on the ground with both palms, but he shouted softly, and two balls of blue and red light were slapped into the ground in an instant.
With a loud bang, the ground beneath the ground corpse exploded. The power of the magic weapon was so powerful that it directly opened a large hole in the ground. Even this ground corpse, which had not yet fully formed, was lifted nearly half a meter by the power of the impact.
I leaned to the side, but I didn't lose my balance completely. I felt the force on my wrist weaken, and I reacted immediately. Without the Taoist master extracting the power from the void, I felt better.
My will activated the Taoist magic, and the speed was amazing. I used my free left hand to make a sword, and shouted: Chengtian! Cut!
The palm knife slashed at the arm of the corpse, and at this time, the old Taoist had fallen down. He drew an empty talisman with one hand and slapped the arm of the corpse. When my palm knife fell, he shouted in a low voice: Five elements of heaven and earth, spiritual talisman transformation, water spirit god, go!
I chopped it down with my palm, and suddenly I felt the softness of the place where my skin touched. I looked again, and was so shocked that I couldn't speak. I chopped the arm of the corpse into two pieces!
The old Taoist grabbed my arm with one hand, jumped into the air, and kicked the corpse's chest with both feet. Without the support of the earth's energy, the unformed corpse was kicked back several meters by the old Taoist like a tiger coming down from the mountain. The old Taoist used the force to pull me in the opposite direction, and at the same time he shouted at me: Escape into nothingness!
I cried out, glanced at the corpse that had fallen to the ground, and immediately reacted.
Although there was little Dao power left, it was not a problem to take the old Taoist into the void space. Moreover, he could transmit the extra Dao power to me. Although the Dao power was consumed in the process, it was still enough to support the two of us to run a few kilometers away.
After a few minutes, even the Taoist priest couldn't move. I felt like my legs were filled with lead and I felt like I was carrying a mountain on my back. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't take another step forward.
The void space trembled more and more violently, and finally exploded with a bang when my legs went weak and I fell to the ground.
Returning to the real world, I fell to the ground. The old Taoist was better than me, and he still had enough strength to stand. Watching him take out the pill from his sleeve and put it in his mouth, his face pale and his eyes closed to regulate his breathing, I couldn't help but mutter: If he had this much strength, it would be better to just use the shrinking technique.
My power of Taoism, even if I use the method of shrinking the earth, I can't go much farther than you. And compared with your Taoist magic of nothingness, the method of shrinking the earth makes it easier for them to find the target. A distance of several kilometers, once they confirm the direction, they can find it quickly. The old Taoist suddenly explained.
I made a sound. I never expected his ears to be so pointy.
However, it is unexpected that you can hold on for so long. It seems that your practice has achieved great results during this period. The old Taoist priest spoke again.
His face gradually turned red, and after a long sigh, he took out a few pills and put them in my hand. I didn't ask what the effect of the medicine was, and swallowed it directly. The pill melted in my mouth and flowed through my body along the esophagus like a warm current. It didn't take long for my hands and feet to feel some strength restored, and the pain in my head that had been lingering for a long time also began to ease.
I was somewhat pleased with what Lao Dao said, but even I couldn't believe that I could hold on for so long.
It seems that it is really different to inherit the authentic Eight Ropes. No wonder my mother was already famous when she was young. I thought to myself, if I had started learning the Eight Ropes since I was a child, what would I be like now? Would I be more powerful than the old Taoist?
As I watched the Taoist's face gradually turn from pale to rosy and the sweat on his forehead quickly disappear, I suddenly felt a surge of heroic spirit in my heart.
Although I can't compare to him now, in the future, perhaps in the near future, I will definitely be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with him. In the future, I will definitely be better than the old Taoist!
How are you? Are you feeling better? the Taoist asked.
Well, much better. I got up from the ground and brushed off the dirt on my body.
How did you find this place? Who told you? the old Taoist priest asked.
Yuwenying. I replied: He went to Yuanling to find me and said that you were injured by the green ghost corpse in order to save Gamu, and were imprisoned by the secret corpse vein. Hey? How could you save Gamu?
The old Taoist looked at me for a long time, then sighed and said: Although there are grievances, I am now approaching the end of my life, so why should I care about the past. He came to me, which means he still puts me in an important position, so I can't help but help. What's more, Wei Qingcang also helped us that day, so let's just repay him a favor.
That’s true... I stopped talking halfway because the following words would not sound good to me.
Yuwenying went to Yuanling to look for you, why didn't you see him? asked the old Taoist priest.
Oh, he said that a purple talisman corpse was unearthed, so he wanted to find someone to help Zhong Jiutian snatch it. Otherwise, if the corpse was taken away by the secret corpse vein, they would be completely finished. I replied.
So that's it. The old Taoist nodded: "If the Purple Talisman Heavenly Corpse can really be obtained by the Zhong family, it would be great... The flames of the netherworld can restrain ghosts and evil things. Even the five living corpses are still included. With the Purple Talisman Heavenly Corpse, perhaps the Heavenly Corpse Vein can achieve a balance. It seems that he went to you not to save me, but to ask that senior for help.
Maybe, I think so too.
The old Taoist lowered his head slightly, thought for a while and said: Let's find a crowded place to rest first, and then go find Yuwen Ying after recovering our Taoist strength.
Huh? Why are you looking for him?
Instead of wasting energy to save Gamu now, it is better to help Sanmai to seize the bargaining chips. If Sanmai can balance with the Secret Corpse Vein, Gamu will be fine. Otherwise, I can save him once, but can I save him a second time or a third time? Although it is not appropriate, it is the same as the principle of giving a man a fish is not as good as teaching him how to fish. What's more, the Secret Corpse Vein imprisoned me, and this account must be settled with them.
That's true. Yuwen Ying has a good plan. With your help, they will definitely...
It's not that simple. The old Taoist shook his head and said: The secret corpse vein has produced a fully formed zombie, which is almost comparable to the top three zombie veins. What's more, they have a lot of unformed zombies, and the outcome of the fight is unpredictable. Even if I don't fight hard, it will be difficult to win against a fully formed zombie alone.
Hehe , there’s me too. It’s almost the whole thing with me included.
The old Taoist looked at me, neither shaking his head nor nodding, and only said: Keep moving forward, the zombies' noses are very sharp, we'd better find a crowded place as soon as possible.
I nodded in agreement and walked forward with the Taoist priest.
At this time, we have already left the main peak of Zhongnan Mountain and headed towards the vaguely visible mountain path. There are many tourists there. Once we get there, I believe that even the secret corpse vein will not dare to act openly.
The old Taoist's elixir was very effective. As I walked along, I felt that all my strength had been restored. Although my Taoist power was not yet full, I believed that it would not take too long before I could recover to my peak state.
As I was walking, I suddenly heard someone shouting: Hey, that kid! The kid sitting in my car! Hey!
I turned around and saw a man holding something and waving at me. I looked closely and found that it was none other than the kind driver I met today.
Do you know him? asked the Taoist priest.
Well, Yuwen Ying took me to the outskirts of Xi’an, and I didn’t bring any money. Fortunately, I met him and got here in time.
The Taoist priest hummed and walked over with me. The driver was holding rice, noodles, vegetables and fruits, and his face was almost covered, but he still managed to show half of his head to look at me: Why are you here? Who is this?
Oh, he's my, uh, my uncle...
Oh, your uncle. The driver looked at the Taoist priest and asked: What are you doing here? Are you looking for my master too?
Your master?
Yes, he lives behind the mountain, just over a small hill. You came at the right time. After a while, Master is going to move to the deep mountains because there are too many people who want to find him every day. The driver said proudly: What? Meeting is fate. Do you want me to take you to meet him? My Master is a capable person who practices cultivation. Ordinary people don't have the opportunity to meet him.
I looked at the driver, then secretly glanced at the old Taoist priest with my peripheral vision, and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. It's okay to say that you are a capable practitioner in front of me, the descendant of the Eight Ropes, after all, I'm still a rookie. But to say this in front of the contemporary head of the Five Elements Meridian... I couldn't help but feel a toothache.
