Chapter 206: Prelude to Chaos
The 17th day of the seventh lunar month.
After the conspiracy between the head of the Wang family and Feng Tianyang was reached, the interrogation meeting was held as scheduled.
On this day, the Heavenly Master of Mount Longhu, the Chief of Shangqing, the Great Gu Master of the Miao tribe, Hu Tu of the Shuzi Sect, the Patriarch of the Lu family and others were all present.
Feng Tianyang knelt on the ground, feeling inexplicably nervous, and did not dare to look up and look at those important figures.
Seeing that most of the guests had arrived, the head of the Wang family modified some of the facts and continued to tell the story:
"Everyone, this beast appeared in the city a few days ago and was watched by our Wang family's informants. We brought a group of good fighters over and surrounded this evil beast. It even accidentally injured several of our clansmen."
As soon as he opened his mouth, dirty water was thrown at him, accusing Feng Tianyang of injuring Wang's disciples. In fact, he was arranging a righteous reason for the Wang family to seize the right to detain and deal with Feng Tianyang.
The implication is that the Wang family has the priority right of execution over any other sect, and everyone is reminded not to overstep the mark.
Then, the head of the Wang family looked around and said slowly:
"Afterwards, I asked the elders in the clan to give this evil creature a taste of pain. Before the torture was over, he became obedient."
"Eight thieves, including him, were at the end of their rope and followed the devil to gain enlightenment. They gained incredible insights and each obtained unique skills to establish their own sect."
Everyone listened attentively, their expressions changing slightly, some with disdain, some with curiosity, and some with caution.
"stunt?"
Hu Tu frowned unhappily and snorted:
"Is this the reason why they are colluding? I am curious about what kind of special skill they have that can make them so greedy that they would do such a thing to betray their teacher and ancestors."
The head of the Wang family smiled calmly, looked at the kneeling stray dog, and scolded loudly:
"Feng Tianyang! After hearing what Chief Hu said, why don't you quickly explain?"
"Yes, yes. I am very frightened. I will tell you everything I know. I will tell you everything I know."
Feng Tianyang played along with him, pretending to be panicked, and hurriedly explained:
"Each of the eight unique skills is different, but the demon is arrogant and claims that these are all magical skills that can crush the unique skills of all schools."
"For example, the Shuangquan Hand can cure all diseases and bring the dead back to life. As long as there is still a breath, there is no one who cannot be saved. The red hand heals the body, and the blue hand repairs the soul and changes the memory. The one who understands this is Duanmu Ying."
"The Tongtian Talisman can be used at will without setting up an altar. It covers a very wide range of fields, including almost all known talismans. The one who has mastered it is Zheng Zibu."
"The source of Qi, similar to the means of the gods and spirits, will greatly increase the cultivation of life after it is activated. According to the devil, it can break any means composed of Qi and imitate it. When it is cultivated to the extreme, a Qi infant will form in the body, and there may be a chance to achieve immortality. The one who realized it is Zhang Huaiyi."
"The efficiency of the Divine Machine in manufacturing magical instruments and mechanisms is far beyond the existing methods of refining instruments. The one who realized it is Ma Benzai."
"Call the spirits and send the generals."
"Daluo Cave View."
"Feng Hou Qi Men."
"The Six Treasury Immortal Thief."
As Feng Tianyang continued to talk, Hu Tu, who had originally held a sneering attitude, suddenly fell silent, and even the expressions of other bigwigs became more solemn.
The further he talked, the more Feng Tianyang felt the tingling pressure on his scalp. He suppressed his uneasiness and told it all in one breath.
A huge wave of greed rose in the heart of the head of the Wang family. The dual hands that could cure any disease, the Tongtian talisman that could cast spells at will, and the Liuku Immortal Thief who could absorb nutrients from natural living things and digest them perfectly, and indefinitely delay aging, were all the unique skills he desperately wanted to obtain.
Compared with this, even the equally important Soul-Binding and General-Sending Techniques are much less important to the Wang family.
The head of the Lu family was also shocked. He subconsciously glanced at his old friend beside him.
He finally understood why this old fox was determined to call him over. He didn't expect that this was a piece of fat meat that his Wang family couldn't swallow even a single bite, and he needed to unite with the Lu family and other factions to put pressure on him.
If all the Eight Great Skills were acquired by the Wang family, without absolute military power, it would simply be a disaster and would be impossible to protect.
And releasing this news would cause chaos in the martial arts world, and hunting down the remaining seven people under the banner of justice. In this way, while dispersing the firepower, it would also ensure that everyone involved in the factions would get a share, and the reward of the Eight Wonders, which was so generous that it was almost impossible to refuse, would be used to silence the mouths of all the factions in the world.
Knowing the plan of the head of the Wang family, the head of the Lu family looked cautious and fell into deep thought. In his opinion, the Wang family was most likely also able to obtain the "Binding Spirits and Dispatching Generals", and it would not be easy for him to get involved and seize other skills.
Zhang Tianshi and Shangqing Sect Leader vaguely sensed the prelude to chaos in the martial arts world. The hunt for the thirty-six thieves was almost over and they were about to let things go, but they didn't expect that these remnants of the gang would once again stir up a bloody storm due to their strange skills.
I'm afraid many, many people will die next.
"The source of the Qi body?"
Tianshi felt unspeakable bitterness in his heart. Until this moment, he was extremely disappointed with Zhang Huaiyi. Just because of a unique skill, this boy abandoned the entire Tianshi Mansion as if it were a burden and ran off to swear brotherhood on his own.
Is the so-called home just your lie?
The traitor not only deceives others but also deceives himself, he is truly amazing.
"Feng Tianyang, how did you acquire such a unique skill? Where are the other thieves?"
At this moment, the leader of a sect shouted.
"Senior, I have been restricted by the devil and cannot speak out."
Feng Tianyang didn't dare to leak the secret. He couldn't withstand the torture brought by the Mountain Oath Gu that occupied his soul. If he was not careful, he would die.
"Restriction? Humph, we have many people with great skills here, it won't be difficult to remove it."
"Everyone, is there anyone willing to give it a try?"
"I come."
Several masters from small sects came forward one after another to help Feng Tianyang break the restrictions, but they strangely found that his body was empty and there was nothing unusual. They had no clue and ended up in failure.
Everyone looked doubtful, some even didn't believe in the existence of the ban, and were certain that Feng Tianyang was lying.
The head of the Wang family turned his head to ask the old woman from the Miao tribe for help, and said respectfully:
"Master Gu, do you have a way to make this beast speak the truth?" "It may not work, but you can try."
The old woman stood up, prepared the love poison 'Cheng', and prepared to dig out the secret from Feng Tianyang's mouth.
"Senior, this is not possible. The restriction cannot be broken!!"
Feng Tianyang felt a chill down his spine and tried to stop him.
This was clearly a risky move. He didn't know whether the old woman's methods would cause the poisonous insects in her body to riot, thus bringing fatal risks.
"Hold him down."
"Someone is coming."
As soon as the Great Gu Master finished speaking, Feng Tianyang didn't have time to say anything more before he was grabbed by the shoulders by two strange men, unable to move.
A dark purple poisonous insect, covered with a shell, with blood-red tentacles on its head, and a body smaller than a fingernail, crawled out from the palm of the great poison master.
"Pfft!"
The old woman held the dagger and cut Feng Tianyang's forehead, revealing the tender flesh and blood. The poisonous insect pounced on it, bit it, injected it with poison, stayed for a few breaths and left.
Then, under everyone's eager anticipation, the great Gu Master chanted a spell to trigger the Gu poison to take effect. Feng Tianyang had a splitting headache, his whole body was trembling, and he wailed:
"Senior, stop!!"
The old woman ignored him and continued to chant.
However, her expression soon became solemn, and she lost her sensitivity to the poison that had penetrated Feng Tianyang's body.
"what happened?"
The stranger who grabbed Feng Tianyang's arm noticed that Feng Tianyang's struggle weakened instantly, and asked unconsciously:
"Senior, is it done?"
"No, my poison was in this beast's body, and for some reason, it was neutralized."
The old woman shook her head regretfully. She had tried her best, but to no avail.
"How about I give it a try?"
At this time, Master Luo Xinping from Yesao Mountain recommended himself. He was fat and had big ears, but his voice was full of energy and he seemed confident.
"If I possess him with my Yin body, I might be able to peer into his mind, know what he's thinking, and circumvent the restrictions."
"What a good idea." Someone immediately encouraged.
If the Yin body leaves the body and encounters an accident, it may be life-threatening. Thinking of this, Tianshi Zhang Jingqing advised:
"Fellow Daoist Luo, this is quite dangerous. Please think twice."
"Master, don't worry about me. I know what to do."
Luo Xinping was confident of his strong cultivation level, so he immediately sat cross-legged on the ground. After closing his eyes, his Yin body moved out and attacked Feng Tianyang's body.
A white poisonous insect lurking deep in his brain made a sharp trembling sound, catching Luo Xinping, who was trying to take over his body, off guard. He had no idea that Feng Tianyang had such murderous intent hidden in his body.
With a loud "bang", the Yin body shattered into countless black souls and hurriedly left this physical body.
At the same time, in full view of everyone, Feng Tianyang was bleeding from all seven orifices and looked exhausted.
"Master Luo?!"
"Oops!!"
Everyone screamed and thought someone was going to die, but at the same time the scattered souls slowly gathered together, forming a blurry figure, which drilled into the original body.
Luo Xinping opened his eyes suddenly and vomited blood. He was so terrified that he didn't even react to what was happening before his body was torn to pieces in an instant.
The means that the devil planted in Feng Tianyang's body are absolutely beyond his ability to shake.
"Master Luo, are you okay?"
"Please ask the doctor to come over quickly."
"No. I'll take a moment."
Luo Xinping tried to stop him, he felt dizzy and his face turned pale, several famous people saw this and hurried over to support him.
The head of the Wang family also realized that the restriction could not be broken. If he continued to struggle, Feng Tianyang would die sooner or later, so he came to his rescue and said:
"Everyone, this beast has told me everything he can. The rest cannot be extracted by force, so let's leave it at that."
As soon as these words came out, the leaders of the sects present saw that he wanted to protect Feng Tianyang, and they knew the deal between the two of them. The capture of spirits and the dispatch of generals was probably obtained by him, so they did not ask more questions.
"The most urgent task is for us to come up with a way to capture those thieves. If we allow them to practice at will, and they have special skills, I'm afraid the world will be in chaos in a dozen years."
"What should we do if they seek revenge on us for the dead thieves?"
Hearing this, the head of the Lu family felt ruthless and agreed, "Brother Wang, what you said is very true. It coincides with my opinion. What do you think?"
Hu Tu from Shuzi Sect followed suit and made his position clear:
"Whoever catches them before they grow up will be destroyed."
