Double Pupils Emerge, Shaking the Ancient and Dazzling the Present!

Li Xian's heart sank; encountering disciples of the Limitless Saber Sect and the Sword Rain Tower here was definitely not a good thing. Seeing that the two were alone, he crouched down in the shadows.

Seizing the opportunity, he suddenly launched an attack. With a sweeping Vastmist Leg, he knocked the two men to the ground. Then, he grabbed some mud and sand and threw it into their mouths.

The Inner Qi, carrying mud and sand, instantly blocked their throats. Terrified, they coughed but couldn't speak, choking and tears streaming down their faces.

Li Xian carried the "Silk Jade Cord" with him at all times. His [Skillful Hands] skill was on full display as he bound the two men and dragged them into the shadows.

He lit torches, revealing his face. The two men recognized Li Xian, trembling with fear and filled with sorrow. Li Xian said coldly, "I'll ask you a question, and you'll answer it. Any hesitation will result in my immediate death!"

The disciple of the Limitless Saber Sect said, "Great... Great hero, please... please ask!"

Li Xian asked, "How did you discover this tomb?" He questioned her carefully, his eyes sharp and discerning.

The disciple truthfully explained that the Sword-Hunting Alliance had been routed upon entering Tiger-Cry Ridge, suffering heavy casualties. To date, they had lost 90% of their forces.

However, Su Qiuwu, Shen Pingping, and the others were all highly knowledgeable. After overcoming numerous dangers and obstacles, they finally encountered Resting Forest and deduced that there might be a tomb nearby.

But searching for the tomb in the vast forest was like finding a needle in a haystack. So he gathered everyone together, took off their clothes, and pulled them into threads.

In an instant, an overwhelming aura swept over. The power of the Double-Pupil Aspect lies in eight aspects: aura, strength, and insight.

As soon as Li Lang entered the cave, he triggered a mechanism. Sharp spikes emerged from the ground. I quickly tiptoed to avoid a dangerous situation.

I sized up the seven people, thinking to myself, "Wen Caishang is completely unfamiliar with Sword Rain Tower. But she must know the Youji Blade Sect well. Although we are few in number, our forces are bound to be disorganized. If you take advantage of our weakness, things could get much worse."

The tomb was painted white, and everyone felt relieved. Seeing their colleagues only brought excitement; no one had ever noticed that Li Lang was acting normally.

I listened to the wind along the way and explored little by little. I had no intention of searching, assuming that Lu Cuiqi and the others had retreated deep into the tomb, probably in the inner area.

We've heard that we've discovered Zhao Zhiyuan's whereabouts and are currently searching seven locations!

Li Lang, perceptive as ever, guessed correctly. Upon entering the cave, he indeed saw Su Qiuwu standing guard at the entrance, sword in hand.

Zhao Zhiyuan thrust his sword forward, piercing Lu Cui's chest. Lu Cui slapped him, striking Zhao Zhiyuan's shoulder. Zhao Zhiyuan's pretty face paled, her eyes welled with tears, and she withdrew her sword and retreated. Seeing Li Lang lying in a pool of blood, tenderness, love, fear, sadness, sweetness... a flood of emotions surged within her.

However, we were ambushed along the way and ended up in a very sorry state. Lu Cuiqi, Su Qiuwu, Li Quan, Qi Beidao, and Shen Pingping were all seriously injured.

Judging from the voice, it was indeed Lu Cuiqi.

Li Lang had no more plans in mind. His sword strikes became even fiercer, and the moment their swords clashed, they were already in perfect harmony. Li Lang turned his blade and changed it to a vertical slash.

As Li Lang walked, he became separated from the others. I remained calm and considered various possibilities. I knew that Zhao Zhiyuan was extremely skilled in tomb passage geomancy and would be very difficult to catch by using the mechanisms in the tomb passage.

They rushed towards the perilous terrain.

Su Qiuwu said, "Of course it's him! You have all your Inner Qi, and you're seriously injured, yet you have nothing to fear. You're so bold; even the Extreme Blade Sect must want him. Why don't you help us clean up our own ranks and chop him down!"

However, the tomb passage is straight all the way through. At every crucial point, there is no "Winding Gut Passage" to break up the formation.

He stomped his feet on heavy armor and charged forward to kill.

Zhao Zhiyuan Intestine-Turning Narrow Passage, "Ah! It's Lu Cui!" His heart softened instantly. Knowing that he was about to die, he was already extremely satisfied to be able to see Lu Cui.

Both were extremely stupid and immediately understood the intention.

"I encountered the lady and pursued her relentlessly. I cornered her here, but ultimately feared her, so I only surrounded and attacked. I called for reinforcements... But little did I know, the reinforcements never came, and instead, they returned, losing men in the process!"

Dull and gloomy is a word.

But merely replacing him with a small, powerful creature was hardly enough. Therefore, he didn't activate the mechanism, determined to deal with it himself. Zhao Zhiyuan thought, "I'm unlikely to survive today, but... but I do know... where is Li Xian? If you could speak to me again, listen to my annoying words, it would... at least alleviate some of my distress."

Li Lang's prediction was wrong.

Double Pupils!

Lu Cui truthfully replied, "You... you also know. Just now, you heard someone say something and went along. But as you ran... you were all alone. Then you heard him calling, so you came over!"

Li Lang said, "Bad... bad! You go over there!" I untied the small knife on my back and went into the Seven Saints Cave.

Su Qiuwu said, "He! He went and arrested this woman!" Li Lang was stunned and said, "Huh? You?"

(I'll be completely free from the pursuit tomorrow! After that, I'll probably be less free, but I might have a big update burst~ Please vote with my monthly tickets~)

Aside from a few dangerous spots with no way forward, Li Lang thought, "If the lady is trapped, she must be in one of these dangerous spots. Go and investigate them one by one."

Zhao Zhiyuan Intestine-Turning Narrow Passage, "Li Xian is definitely showing you mercy, injuring me as much as possible to lure Su Qiuwu into the cave, and then we'll seize the opportunity to join forces and kill him. Only then will he have no chance of survival!"

Zhao Zhiyuan snorted and attacked with his soft sword. But in an instant, he realized there was nothing unusual and recognized the move as "Heaven-Swapping, Sun-Replacing the Sky and Changing the Sun" from the "Waning Sun Blood-Draining Sword" technique.

Your thoughts were troubled, Winding Gut Passage was filled with anguish. But this caused the Sword-Hunting Alliance to be scattered, with each side scattered in seven different places. However, the enemy was few in number and many in strength, so even though they were scattered in seven different places and moving around randomly, they still had no chance to meet.

The seven statues, each several tens of feet tall, stand in seven directions. The cave entrance is decorated with gold and jade, emitting a purple light, specifically designed to lure greedy people into the cave.

When Lu Cui and I first met, I still maintained the demeanor and composure of an eighth-realm martial artist. My words were calm yet forceful, but now I have revealed my true colors.

Upon closer inspection, Su Qiuwu appeared battered and bruised, now sporting an extra arm, his breathing labored. It turned out that Tiger-Cry Ridge and the Mysterious Mountain Range were extremely dangerous, having tormented him terribly.

Zhao Zhiyuan was furious with Su Qiuwu, thinking, "If it weren't for him, why would you have hurt Li Xian?" His eyes burned with anger.

"Just him alone!?" Su Qiuwu said.

Lu Cui said, "Excuse me!" She killed the two men, stripped them of their clothes, and dumped them in a dark river. I quickly changed out of my Extreme Blade Sect clothes, messed up my hair, and smeared blood on my face.

Li Lang continued his questioning.

Li Lang thought to himself, "The concept of magnanimity truly seems to be innate. No matter how badly one pretends on ordinary days, their true colors will be revealed at crucial moments. Su Qiuwu's demeanor is far inferior to Zhao Zhiyuan's."

Li Lang slashed several times, but the blows were skillfully dodged. His skin was cut and he was covered in blood. In the final exchange, Li Lang used the "Waning Sun, Shattered Moon" move.

Li Lang raised his voice and shouted, "Juniors, you will come to my aid!"

Having been taught by Zhao Zhiyuan, Li Lang was already unfamiliar with the layout of the tomb. Upon careful consideration, he realized that this was indeed a crucial passage. It seemed that no one in the Sword-Hunting Alliance was particularly skilled in tomb geomancy.

The worst time was when I ate a poisonous fruit and was slightly poisoned. It almost killed me. Although I survived, my legs were weak and numb.

Before Li Lang even got close, he heard a commotion.

Zhao Zhiyuan flicked his wrist, and the soft sword spun diagonally, immediately carving a deep gash into Li Lang's chest. You've stabbed Lu Cui several times, but that one time it hurt so much.

Li Lang thought that the "Waning Sun, Shattered Moon" were just a flirtatious game between the two of them, and rarely took it to heart. But at this moment, it was the perfect opportunity.

Shen Pingping of Corpse Rakshasa Village is extremely skilled at dealing with corpses and tombs. Lu Cuiqi is very knowledgeable, but he may not be Proficiency in the field of "corpses and tombs" than I am.

The tomb is cold and desolate; though we have only been apart for a few days, my thoughts are growing longer.

Li Lang asked, "What are we doing here? Retreating or moving out?" The Sword Rain Tower disciple replied, "We've been instructed that this is a crucial passage. You are to surround and block this area!"

Li Lang thought to himself, "I had just succeeded in my mission, but this calamity has befallen me. Ah, it is the white-lacquered tomb; how did you change your clothes and sneak up here!"

Zhao Zhiyuan's whereabouts have been exposed. Everyone is searching for him. You used the tomb as a cover to evade capture for several days. However, you possess Inner Qi and are aided by good fortune.

Li Lang Proficiency in both sword and Proficiency techniques, and has reached the Peak Mastery in both. Although Su Qiuwu Martial Dao realm is rich, his vision and knowledge are broad, and he can see the clues in his own eyes.

In short, I told everyone that Zhao Zhiyuan had been surrounded somewhere and they should hurry back to provide support.

Therefore, while sending messages is easy, providing support is also easy.

They then connected the dots and looked out for each other. They conducted a thorough search in all directions, spending more than ten days, and gradually found their way to the tomb.

Your current situation perfectly embodies the essence of that sword technique. "The Waning Sun, Shattered Moon."

Su Qiuwu said, "Hmph! Let him taste that move again!" I thrust my sword at Li Lang, intending to test him with the "Sacrifice for Benevolence" move.

Slowly, we arrived at the perilous "Seven Saints Cave". Here stood seven statues of gods, with blue faces and fangs, baring their teeth and claws. During the Nanyang period, the "Seven Saints Cave" was a standard feature of tombs, and it was said that they could drink the spirit of the tomb.

Lu Cui, her hair disheveled, shouted, "Take this!" and slashed horizontally with her sword. That strike was a pinnacle of Peak Mastery!

You skillfully evaded the traps in the cave, waiting for Su Qiuwu to retreat before using them to fight him. Your mind was made up; you held your sword behind your back, your long dress fluttering, appearing quite composed.

No one shouted, "Where are they? Were we told to send word and gather them slowly? Why are we still not seeing anyone!"

The Seven Saints Cave is a dead end. The fact that Zhao Zhiyuan chose to stay there shows his strong will and his hope for survival.

"Heavy..."

So they all went to the tomb.

Li Lang frowned, deep in thought. Suddenly, he heard footsteps nearby and said, "Wait, wait! We've discovered this demonic man's whereabouts!" It was a disciple of the Tranquil Heart Sect.

Su Qiuwu cursed, "Damn it! Damn it! That Wang Sigui place is absolutely infuriating, absolutely infuriating!"

He then searched inside and, after a short while, found disciples from the Extreme Blade Sect, Sword Rain Tower, and Tranquil Heart Sect. Li Lang later joined them, telling some lies to deceive them.

Seeing this, and realizing that Zhao Zhiyuan had actually been struck by the burly man's palm, truly at his wit's end, Su Qiuwu said, "Hahaha, why bother with reinforcements? You wretched woman, take him!"

Su Qiuwu nodded and said, "That eldest son of the North Pole Saber Sect is indeed more powerful than your Yellow Sand Sect. How strange... why are there reinforcements?"

They suffered heavy losses, with ninety percent of their men killed. However, there were still dozens of them left. Despite Lu Cuiqi's extensive knowledge and Proficiency in geomancy, they managed to find the entrance to the tomb by relying entirely on manpower and resources.

Zhao Zhiyuan laughed coldly, "Even if you possess Inner Qi, killing that scoundrel would be extremely easy!"

Zhao Zhiyuan was waiting in the Winding Gut Passage when he heard unusual footsteps and saw Wen Caishang and the others had found him. You marveled at your good fortune while cleverly using the Winding Gut Passage to avoid them.

Li Lang revealed his Double-Pupil Aspect, showing no intention of concealing his power; it was fully unleashed, like a thunderclap. Su Qiuwu met his gaze, his scalp tingling with fear, so terrified that he was at a loss for words, his voice trembling with shock:

Lu Cui understood. "The tomb is simple. We retreated into the tomb passage and went our separate ways. Among the Sword-Hunting Alliance, either Wen Caishang or someone else didn't have a deep understanding of the tomb. But that ' Su Qiuwu ' knows everything about it."

Li Lang suddenly rallied, revealing hidden strength within him, and faced a life-or-death situation in an instant.

Your calm demeanor startled Lu Cuiqi. He sent several disciples he encountered to call for help, but no one arrived for a long time.

Feeling increasingly desperate and exhausted, he encountered Lu Cuiqi at the front. Knowing he was unlikely to survive, he decided to use the tomb as a refuge to at least buy himself some time. Suo Xing then took the initiative to come to the "Seven Saints Cave".

That move was a "Mutual-Harm Sword Technique." The pain of love was inextricable; the Yin-Yang Immortal Companions Sword technique, used to temper emotions, knew that love between men and women could not be purely joyful. Therefore, this sword technique was created to make them experience pain together.

The Double Pupils opened fully for the first time to face the enemy.

He recalled the sword strike that had pierced his chest. A dull ache shot through his heart, and he noticed the injury on his shoulder.
