Walking by the Abyss on Thin Ice

Chapter 291 – Holy Maiden Ming Sheng Yan



Chapter 291 – Holy Maiden Ming Sheng Yan

"Ying Ying, you first organize these notes on physical objects and see if you can find any clues," Su Yun whispered.

Ying Ying agreed and quickly entered his spiritual realm, flipping through the notes on physical objects.

Su Yun calmed himself.

The notes on physical objects had the mark of the Tongtian Pavilion, indicating that the Pan Yang Rebellion was very likely related to the Tongtian Pavilion.

If the Pan Yang Rebellion was caused by someone in the Tongtian Pavilion, then not only would the situation of the master of the Tongtian Pavilion be very dangerous, but other members of the Tongtian Pavilion in Yuanshuo would also be in danger!

"The Pan Yang Rebellion triggered the rise of the New School and the Heavenly Court, which in turn led to the invasion of Yuanshuo by Da Qin. Perhaps it is not just a coincidence," he silently thought.

They arrived at the stairs leading to the second floor of the Luli Tower. The stairs and the walls were covered in red flesh, and where they stepped, it was soft. Su Yun stopped and looked closely, only to see that the red substance was flesh, covered by fur.

The stairs were actually crawling with flesh!

Xing Jiangmu also noticed this scene, took out a silver needle, lightly pricked it, and withdrew the needle. He saw blood droplets on the needle and exclaimed, "Lord Shao Shi, this flesh is still alive!"

Su Yun reached out and touched the flesh covering the stairs, and it was still warm.

The edges of the flesh covering the walls and stairs had irregular shapes, and even tendrils of blood vessels could be seen spreading on the walls.

"The art of creation!"

Su Yun whispered, "The person who experimented with physical objects and Pan Yang here has used a peculiar art of creation, allowing these Pan Yang flesh to continue growing."

He continued to walk up, only to see that the second floor was completely covered in flesh, and these flesh were still slowly growing, with blood flowing in the blood vessels.

They proceeded cautiously. There were many rooms in this tower, and each room had remnants of physical objects and Pan Yang.

The more Su Yun looked, the more shocked he became. The person who experimented with physical objects and Pan Yang here was following the path of demonic cultivation, conducting many strange experiments in an attempt to transform Pan Yang and use the power hidden in the calamity ashes to turn Pan Yang into demons.

They also saw some deformed Pan Yang bones, as if they were spliced together with other demons. Some Pan Yang even grew multiple heads and legs, resembling demons.

Finally, they reached the top floor of the Luli Tower. Su Yun was stunned. He saw that it was a suite, like a woman\'s boudoir, very exquisite, with a living room, study, dining room, and washing area.

Outside the room, there was a Pan Yang corpse leaning against the wall. Inside the study, there was a human girl with shackles on her feet, sitting at the desk with one hand pressing on the table, holding a book, and the other hand holding a pen, motionless.

Su Yun was surprised and glanced at Tian Feng and Xing Jiangmu. Tian Feng understood and revealed her few feathers, being cautious.

Xing Jiangmu realized the situation and quickly became alert.

The girl remained seated at the desk, without any breath or heartbeat.

Su Yun did not approach, but directly activated his vitality and pulled out the book that the girl was pressing on. At this moment, the girl\'s chest suddenly swelled, followed by the sound of a heartbeat coming from her body, and then her breathing!

Su Yun was shocked, but he saw that the girl\'s hand was still pressing on the book, preventing him from stealing it.

Tian Feng immediately spread her wings, protecting Xing Jiangmu as they retreated, like a mother hen protecting her chicks. It seemed that Tian Feng thought Xing Jiangmu, who was in his twilight years, could not protect himself, so she had to protect him.

"Lord Su of Yuanshuo."

The girl pressed down on the book, turned her head to look at Su Yun, and smiled, "Could it be that you are the book thief?"

Su Yun dissipated his vitality and carefully examined the girl. He saw that the girl\'s facial features resembled Ming Yufei to some extent. Her every smile and frown also resembled Ming Yufei, but Ming Yufei appeared as a youthful and innocent girl, filled with wildness in her heart.

On the other hand, this girl who was imprisoned here had a kind of intellectual beauty and a unique temperament.

Su Yun slowly took a step back and smiled, "May I ask the girl\'s surname and name, and why were you imprisoned here?"

The girl put down her pen, stood up gracefully, and her voice was sweet and soothing, "Tongtian Pavilion\'s Saintess, Ming Shengyan, pays respects to the Lord."

Su Yun was horrified and laughed, "Are you the Saintess Ming Shengyan from a hundred and seventy years ago?"

Tian Feng covered Xing Jiangmu as they left the room. Xing Jiangmu hurriedly brushed away the feathers of the large bird and saw that the hair on the back of Su Yun\'s head was standing up one by one, obviously extremely nervous.

However, from the girl\'s perspective, she couldn\'t see Su Yun\'s hair standing up.

Xing Jiangmu\'s scalp also tingled, thinking, "Saintess Ming Shengyan? She disappeared more than a hundred and seventy years ago. It\'s impossible for her to still be alive, let alone maintain the appearance of a young girl!"

The girl smiled, "Lord Su of Yuanshuo, do you have any doubts?"

Su Yun blinked and said, "I have heard of the deeds of Saintess Ming Shengyan and greatly admire her. However, she should be over two hundred years old, even if she is a Dao Saint, she cannot live for two hundred years without dying. I don\'t believe that you are Ming Shengyan. What evidence do you have?"

At this moment, Xing Jiangmu saw Su Yun\'s hair standing up automatically, twisting and distorting into the shape of a word.

He looked closely and saw that the word was "run"!

"Shao Shi, let\'s run!"

Xing Jiangmu immediately transmitted his vitality and said to Tian Feng, "It seems very bad. Let\'s go quickly!"

"Lord Su of Yuanshuo, I have never seen a portrait of myself, but the people around you should have seen my portrait, right?" The girl\'s skin was like beautiful jade, and her beauty seemed to surpass Ming Yufei. She smiled, "Why not ask them?"

The giant bird Tian Feng had already taken Xing Jiangmu and swiftly flew down to the next floor.

A mist gradually filled behind Su Yun, and he smiled, "Letting others serve as evidence? I\'m afraid it won\'t convince me. Saintess Ming Shengyan, you should have some treasures that can prove your identity, right?"The girl turned her head and shook the bracelet on her wrist, smiling, "This agate bracelet of mine has my name on it, as well as the heritage of my family. It is a spiritual weapon that I painstakingly refined. Can it serve as proof?"

She took off the bracelet and handed it over.

Su Yun was extremely cautious. A mist flew out from the dusty sky and transformed into a large hand, catching the bracelet.

The girl smiled at him. Su Yun probed cautiously and found that the bracelet had not been tampered with, so he accepted it. While examining the agate on the bracelet, he also observed the girl\'s expression.

The girl smiled and said, "The reason I can live forever is because I have become an immortal..."

Just as she said this, a cloud of mist suddenly rushed towards them, blocking her line of sight.

Su Yun grabbed the bracelet and turned around, running as fast as he could. In an instant, he had rushed out of the girl\'s chamber and reached the stairs of the pagoda.

Behind him, thick smoke billowed. It was the dusty sky following closely behind.

The dusty sky was made up of countless tiny gravel, appearing even finer than mist. At this moment, the book written by the girl was being carried by the mist, following Su Yun as he descended!

The young man jumped down from the stairs of the pagoda, and the mist also rolled down, diving downwards!

On the top floor of the pagoda, the girl\'s smile had not yet faded, but Su Yun had already reached the third floor below.

The girl\'s face twisted, and she rushed out, shouting angrily, "Brat, do you think you can deceive me and take my treasure?"

Her voice started off crisp like a young girl\'s, but as she spoke, it became heavy and rough, like a hoarse male voice mixed with the roar of wild beasts and demons, rushing towards them!

The girl rushed out of the room but was suddenly tripped by a chain, causing her body to roll forward while her bones remained in place.

Without the support of her flesh and blood, she lay paralyzed on the ground, wriggling incessantly. Her once beautiful face also became somewhat strange.

Her flesh and blood wriggled and attached themselves to her bones. She dislocated her ankle joints, pulled her legs out of the chains, and then reconnected the bones.

Flesh and blood covered her body, and the flesh and blood behind her head moved like countless tentacles, attaching themselves to her skull. Her beautiful face slowly pressed against her skull as she shouted towards the outside, "You cannot escape from the palm of my hand!"

When Su Yun reached the second floor of the pagoda, he finally caught up with Tian Feng and Xing Jiang Mu. The two of them rushed towards the first floor like birds.

Just at that moment, the entrance of the stairs turned into a big mouth with a crimson long tongue, shouting, "Su Master, your Holy Maiden of the Tongtian Pavilion has been left here forever. You should stay too!"

Xing Jiang Mu grabbed a handful of silver needles and inserted them into the tongue, pinching the sword gesture with his hand and shouting, "Sacrifice!"

Each silver needle turned into a silver sword, cutting off the long tongue. The two of them rushed out covered in blood, but behind them, the flesh and blood surged like a tide, flying along the walls and covering the bones of the sheep!

The bones of the sheep instantly revived, spewing out thick smoke and mist, reaching out to grab them!

Su Yun activated the dusty sky, transforming it into a giant sword, slashing in all directions. Countless sharp claws fell from the sky, and the two of them rushed out of the pagoda like birds!

Behind them, the pagoda trembled with a loud rumble. After a while, it returned to calmness.

On the top floor of the pagoda, the girl leaned against the window, giggling, "Su Master, you are such a cunning scoundrel. Unfortunately, you refuse to accept a toast, so you have to drink a forfeit."

Su Yun looked up and put the bracelet into his spiritual realm, grabbing the book from the mist and smiling, "It seems that you haven\'t toasted me yet, have you?"

The girl sneered, "By not killing you directly, I have already toasted you."

Inside the pagoda, resurrected sheep walked out one by one, holding rusty and broken weapons, silently approaching Su Yun and the others.

At the same time, the sound of chains clanking came from the buildings surrounding the central demon-suppressing hall. The sound of the doors opening could also be heard. Unexpectedly, more sheep holding various broken weapons were coming towards them.

Su Yun took a deep breath, and his aura turned into a giant bell, hanging above everyone\'s heads. He casually put the book into his spiritual realm and said, "Ying Ying, take a look at what this book says first!"

Tian Feng\'s face turned serious, spreading her wings and standing on one leg, while the other bird claw was raised in a defensive posture.

Xing Jiang Mu stood beneath her, holding a handful of silver needles as if facing a great enemy.

The demonized sheep charged towards them!

"Su Scholar, this book is about the experience of the Holy Maiden Ming Sheng Yan. After the chaos caused by the sheep, she came here to search for the source. She found it here. In the book, she said that the demon god Tai Sui is suppressed here."

Ying Ying\'s voice entered Su Yun\'s mind. At the same time, the bell rang, and the demonized sheep rushed forward with immense strength. Dozens of them attacked together, and with a loud bang, they shattered the giant bell formed by the dusty sky!

In the instant the bell burst open, the wooden box in Su Yun\'s hand suddenly transformed into a large spear, thrusting forward. He stepped on a shooting star, and the long spear in his hand spun, making a sharp sound!

Above his head, the dusty sky transformed into a huge spear, and the surface of the spear also revealed the runes of the Winged Dragon!

Whoosh!Su Yun forcefully threw out the dragon scale, and the dragon scale transformed from the dust-filled sky followed suit!
