The #1 Pretty Boy Of The Immortal Path Chapter 63 - Mantra of Truth

Chapter 63 - Mantra of Truth

Edited by NZRose

While Lin Shu was thinking about the wealth of the black cat, a strong wind suddenly came across his ear, and an ashen hand came through stabbing diagonally.

He instinctively quickly turned his body to avoid the blow. Ling Xiao quickly blocked back and slapped the living corpse man’s chest with a hard palm. The light red spiritual force fleeted in the air, similar to the color of Ling Fengxiao. As expected from the bloodline of Phoenix Mountain Villa.

With the cat in his arms, Lin Shu can neither play the zither nor evade the attack and was not very flexible. Fortunately, his cousin was strong enough to prevent him from being attacked. There was still room to pull the cat’s ears a few times and wanted it to wake it up quickly.

The disciples shared a common hatred for Northern Xia. Even though their injuries had not yet healed, they all tried their best to take up weapons and guard the surrounding areas of Lin Shu and Ling Xiao and join in the battle with the living corpses. For a time, there was only the sound of the shrieks of the corpses and the banging of the colliding weapons on the platform of Huandang Mountain.

With their help, the pressure on Ling Xiao’s side was greatly reduced, and his moves became more flexible. Lin Shu had more opportunities to pull the cat’s ears. After pulling a few times, he was afraid that he would break the thin ear so he changed to pulling the tail.

Unfortunately, the cat was completely unconscious. No matter how Lin Shu handled it, it looked like a dead cat with warm fur.

While trying to wake the cat, he followed Ling Xiao and stood within three steps behind him, which was the safest area.

Following him, he found that Ling Xiao’s steps were strange.

Although this man’s sword technique has the fierce and murderous atmosphere of the Phoenix Mountain Villa sword technique, it was more clear and elegant, the blade shone like snow, and the footwork was also—but with Lin Shu’s eyesight, he could see his movement. The direction was not forced by the battle.

Under normal circ.u.mstances, when people are under siege, they will consciously choose the most suitable direction to break through, and then break it, but Ling Xiao did not!

He was heading in a certain direction consciously but without a trace, and that direction was not an appropriate one.

Ling Xiao has other intentions!

Lin Shu hugged the cat and followed Ling Xiao in the chaotic battle, paying attention to Ling Xiao’s sword.

The melee continued for about two sticks of incense, then Ling Xiao’s sword suddenly stabbed a living corpse.

However, when the tip of the knife touched the chest of the living corpse, it quickly changed its direction and pierced the throat of a disciple who was helping Ling Xiao resist the living corpses!

Lin Shu even met that disciple in the Academy!

A disciple nearby exclaimed: “Brother! Wrong!”

Ling Xiao gave a sneer, the blade was as light as snow, and his castration was unabated!

The disciple crossed the sword in one block, the angle was extremely tricky!

Ling Xiao quickly fought with him.

Lin Shu was surprised to find that Ling Xiao’s strength at this time has not weakened or even strengthened compared to when he fought against the sky lightning. It far exceeded his level of Yuan Ying’s peak in his understanding, and it was close to the level of crossing the Tribulation. It is extremely shocking.

However, the disciple’s martial arts were not weak. His sword technique was treacherous and tricky. He had to fight with Ling Xiao in a blink of an eye, and he temporarily lost his ground.

When the other disciples saw the cruel sword technique, they knew that he was not on the right path. They woke up, and several of them withdrew from the battle with the living corpses to deal with the strange disciple.

Although they were not strong at this time, they eventually hara.s.sed the disciple. Ling Xiao’s swordsmans.h.i.+p was sharp, and he slashed across his shoulders, splas.h.i.+ng foot-high blood, taking advantage of the pain that the person was suffering from, the offensive was suspended, and another sword went straight at him.

The man s.h.i.+elded himself with spiritual force, Ling Xiao’s blade was blocked by the spiritual force, and he swiped to the left, brus.h.i.+ng his cheek, creating a light red mark.

The two continued to fight, at a time when the outcome was difficult to distinguish, Ling Xiao suddenly took out his left hand and took a hand on his face again.

The spiritual power around his body suddenly exploded at this moment, making it difficult for the person to move. Taking advantage of this moment’s delay, Ling Xiao actually tore something translucent from this person’s face.

——Mask!

Several school disciples let out a startled cry: “Lord Kun Shan!”

Under the human skin mask, was a thin and cold face. It was one of the two Daoists who were responsible for protecting the disciples along the way, Lord Kun Shan.

Lord Kun Shan was a swordsman with a very high level of cultivation. When Lin Shu chose the cla.s.s, Mr. Meng even asked him why he didn’t choose Lord Kun Shan since he was cultivating under the sword.

He was supposed to be guarding the foot of the mountain with Master Feng Lei, but why did he disguise himself as a disciple of the Academy and mix himself in the Huandang Mountain?

Moreover, that treacherous swordsmans.h.i.+p and spiritual power all prove that this person has entered the evil way, and it may even be the person who controls these living corpses!

Ling Xiao said: “Great to see you, Senior Kun Shan.”

He said, “Great to see you, Senior.” but his movements were as fierce in one move. His spiritual force was magnificent, which was almost twice as strong as at the beginning of the melee.

It’s just&#k2026; dreadful.

The talented Lord Kun Shan was not as good as him, and he was completely suppressed at this time.

He saw Lord Kun Shan’s lips squirming, and he uttered some words quickly. The living corpses suddenly ran into Ling Xiao and Lin Shu!

Ling Xiao waved his knife, and the light of the knife made a round of clear light like a crescent moon, cleaving them all across.

But at this moment, Lord Kun Shan suddenly and violently pulled out his sword, which the speed was too fast to be seen by the naked eye. His sword was unmatched, and he broke through layers of spiritual protection and went straight to Lin Xiao. There was a sound of weapons sinking into the flesh, and the sword stabbed into the left abdomen of Ling Xiao.

However, Ling Xiao didn’t seem to feel anything. When he turned around, the blade of his sword slashed towards Lord Kun Shan with the force of wind and thunder. Lord Kun Shan was already at the end of his strength. At this time, he has almost no ability to parry, and he could barely support himself. After dozens of rounds, he had already been hit by several sabres and was completely helpless and was restrained by Ling Xiao.

A disciple took the initiative and said: “I have an Enchantment Binding Chain!”

Lord Kun Shan was bound by an Enchantment Binding Chain into a rice dumpling, unable to perform any tricks.

The movements of the living dead immediately became rigid and mechanical, and after a short while, they were all controlled.

Ling Xiao stepped to the front of Lord Kun Shan and said: “Lord Kun Shan has a good strategy.”

Lord Kun Shan looked cold, and said: “…Phoenix Villa!”

“Senior miscalculated,” Ling Xiao smiled, “Ling Fengxiao was not here, but I am also the blood descendant of Phoenix Villa.”

Lord Kun Shan looked pale and said: “It’s just a fluke.”

“Why didn’t you think that Ling Fengxiao didn’t come on purpose?”

Lord Kun Shan, who was tied like a rice dumpling, stared at him coldly.

A disciple looked sad and said: “Master, you…”

Lord Kun Shan ignored him and said nothing.

“Bring him down the mountain,” Ling Xiao said, “This person will be tortured by the Imperial Guards.”

At this time, the cat in Lin Shu’s arms slowly opened his eyes, looked at the chaotic situation, and gave a dazed “meow”.

It’s really time to wake up. If it wasn’t clear that it was indeed in a coma, Lin Shu would think it was pretending to be unconscious.

But he doesn’t care about the state of the cat at this time.

A large swath of blood has spread on Ling Xiao’s white clothes, faintly purplish-black, and his situation was very bad.

Ling Xiao took the healing medicine from Lin Shu, took a few pills, and took a few breaths. It seemed that everything was fine.

They went down the mountain, they saw that the Imperial Guards were already guarding at the foot of the mountain. Seeing them coming, Ling Xiao immediately handed over Kun Shan and the living corpses and escorted them away.

During this process, only the leader of the Imperial Guards said: “Thank you, Young Hero, for your help.” After that, they didn’t have any other conversations, it was as if they had a clear understanding and a plan.

Ling Xiao asked for two rooms at the Immortal Village Inn.

Lin Shu felt that the injury he had suffered was really serious and that he needed to take medicine and rest, so he held the zither and went back to the room with him.

As soon as he entered the room, Ling Xiao’s body suddenly shook, and his face was pale, as if his spiritual force was depleted.

Lin Shu stretched out his hand to help him, so he would not fall down, and sat on the bed of the inn.

Lin Shu asked: “Do you want to bandage it up?”

Ling Xiao pressed the wound, “It’s poisonous, wait.”

Lin Shu asked: “Do you want to detoxify?”

Ling Xiao looked at him with a gentle expression in his eyes, “No, I’m not afraid of poison.”

Okay.

Ling Xiao: “You come and sit too.”

Lin Shu sat next to him.

“This matter of Lord Kun Shan, was a trick to lure the snake out of the cave,” he said. “Not long ago, there was a Northern Xia’s demonic object in Shangling Academy, and Sister Xiao suspected that there was a powerful Daoist in the Academy who defected .”

Lin Shu: “?”

“You have invited the Dream Hall Master Yue to come out of the mountain, and use the “Part of Ten Thousand” technique to observe everything in the world. Since the Dream Hall Master Yue said that the monsters have been eliminated, they have indeed been eliminated, but since then, there have been living corpses. The Academy had Northern Xia’s spy and was well informed. After learning the news of the arrival of the Dream Hall Master Yue, he immediately moved away from Shangling Academy and returned after the investigation was completed.”

Lin Shu thought for a while, it was indeed true.

The old Master Yue of Dream Hall vowed to say that the academy was clean, and half a day later, he encountered the living corpse in the Library Pavilion, which makes no sense.

What’s more, the coming and leaving of the Old Hall Master, ordinary disciples don’t know, only a high-ranking Daoist or a partner would know about this.

“In previous years, Northern Xia always liked to do some actions on Huandang Mountain, but they were terrified of the mountain keepers and their actions were only limited to observing in secret,” Ling Xiao said lightly. “This time the black cat was seriously injured, and the rest of the disciples were also seriously injured. It was a golden opportunity in a lifetime. It was expected that Northern Xia’s spies would take action.”

Lin Shu thought for a while. It all made sense, but it took a lot of effort to identify who was the spy of Northern Xia. He doesn’t know how his cousin made the judgment.

Ling Xiao seemed to know what he was thinking, “The rest of the disciples must be willing to help the cat through the tribulation. The first few strikes of tribulation lightning were not powerful and I couldn’t find out the depth, so I started to stop them from taking action.

Lin Shu: “…”

Dreadful.

Cousin, your brain is really good.

The lightning tribulation shock to people was directed at the spiritual soul, no matter how tight the disguise, flaws will surely emerge under such pressure, and using this craft, he jumped into the trap of his cousin and could only reveal his stuff.

In the chaos, others wouldn’t be able to find the flaws, but his cousin was no ordinary person after all.

“The spy was a Daoist in the Academy, and Northern Xia loves to do things on Huandang Mountain. Therefore, the spy is probably one of Master Feng Lei and Lord Kun Shan.” Ling Xiao said, “As expected, it was Lord Kun Shan.”

Lin Shu sighed.

Ling Xiao looked at him and smiled, “In the next few days, I will have no spiritual force. We will have to stay in the inn for more time.”

Lin Shu: “Why?”

Ling Xiao did not answer directly, but asked softly, “Do you know why Lord Kun Shan dared to kill the cat?”

The half-dead black cat lying on Lin Shu’s shoulder gave a shock.

Lin Shu: “I don’t know.”

“Because Ling Fengxiao was not there,” Ling Xiao said, “Phoenix Villa’s direct bloodline, complemented by the Villa’s Heart Method, has a method called ‘Nirvana and Breath’. After the spiritual power is exhausted, it will come to life from desperation. After half an hour of internal cultivation, he rises to a higher level, but will lose spiritual power for the next seven days.”

It turned out that this was the reason why Ling Xiao was seriously injured, but his cultivation base skyrocketed and directly suppressed the Kun Shan Lord.

It can also explain why he said “It’s okay” when facing the Ninth Thunder Tribulation.

The cultivation base directly rises to a great level, Ling Xiao’s normal level was Yuan Ying, after rising, it was already crossing a tribulation, so even if he was against the sky lightning, he was very confident.

“If Ling Fengxiao was here, there would be someone who was capable of transcending the Tribulation on Huandang Mountain. Lord Kun Shan will never act rashly, but Sister Xiao was not there,” Ling Xiao said, “What a pity…”

Unfortunately, people in the world often think that Phoenix Mountain Villa was all women, and ignore those boys who do not belong to Phoenix Mountain Villa in name but who do have Phoenix blood.

Lord Kun Shan did miscalculate this time, and his cousin’s plan was indeed formidable.

Lin Shu somehow remembered Ling Xiao’s previous sentence to Lord Kun Shan, “Why didn’t you think that Ling Fengxiao didn’t come on purpose?”

This sentence was extremely frightening after careful consideration, so he couldn’t think deeply about it.

He said silently: “You take care of your injuries.”

After a while, he heard his cousin say: “Yeah.”

Lin Shu looked at him.

Ling Xiao met his gaze and seemed to want to say something.

The next moment, he leaned towards Lin Shu.

He fainted.

Just like the black cat, he pa.s.sed out.

Lin Shu supported his fainted cousin and flattened him on the bed.

In the process of laying him down, he felt the blood in one hand.

If he allowed him to faint like this, it would not be good, he needed to be bandaged.

Lin Shu looked in the brocade bag and found a pile of medicine and soft cloth bandages, as well as several bottles of spiritual dew.

Then, he began to untie Ling Xiao’s clothes and expose the wound.

He first soaked the soft cloth with the spiritual dew, and then wiped the bloodstain around the wound.

His fingers touched Ling Xiao’s warm and strong waist and abdomen, which made him a little fl.u.s.tered and wanted to escape.

However, the next moment, Lin Shu was completely stunned.

After wiping off the bloodstain, there was a black mark next to the three-finger wide wound.

The shape of the mark was strange, like some kind of writing that has not been seen before.

But he has seen this mark!

In the school palace, thinking about it, the captured disciple.

The Big Miss said that this was a long lost Northern Xia sorcery, called the Mantra of Truth. Which was branded on the soul. The person who has been engraved with the Mantra of Truth will keep the secret forever and cannot say the one that the owner of the curse wants him not to say all his life, which was impossible to break.
