Indestructible Body Of Vajra Of The Village Leader

Chapter 1121: Chapter 884: Destiny! The Nameless and Surnameless!

”The Dragon Energy is out of control...”

Jiang Dali abruptly stopped at the edge of the passageway, operating the Absorption Skill to desperately maintain the Dragon Energy and prevent it from dissipating. After a brief moment, realizing that the Dragon Energy became more agitated and harder to control the further forward he went, he still took a deep breath, watching the Fire Qilin and Dragon body below as he took a few steps back.

As he retreated, the agitated Dragon Energy within him calmed down once more.

Jiang Dali stared at the distant remains of Emperor below, feeling unwilling and puzzled.

”According to the ancient text fragments provided by the Yun Family, this Dragon Vein was ultimately obtained by Xiong Ba using Nie Feng. Why could Nie Feng enter the Dragon Vein Land and obtain the Dragon Vein while others could not? Is it because of Fate again? Or perhaps due to untimely opportunities?”

If it was merely due to Fate, Jiang Dali thought it wasn’t much of a problem, because with his relationship with Nie Renwang and Nie Feng, he could still gain the Dragon Vein through Nie Feng and then use it to control the Fire Qilin.

But if it involved untimely opportunities or intangible luck due to the changes in the Mixed Martial Arts World, it would not be an easy issue to resolve.

”Considering such mysterious matters, to find a solution, one must consult professionals. The most renowned in the Martial World are the disciples of the All-Knowing Sect or Gui Guzi, among others. Fortunately, among those working for me, Liao Rushen, a former disciple of the Tianji Sect, isn’t too bad and should be able to provide some advice...”

After pondering for a while, Jiang Dali noticed the Fire Qilin below showed no intention of coming out for another round, and the panel didn’t indicate any activity, prompting him to dismiss the thought of lingering here.

Clearly, the Fire Qilin didn’t want to continue entangling with him. The temperament of such fierce beasts is the opposite of humans; even if they possess great strength, they will retreat if they find the enemy hard to handle, unless they go completely berserk, otherwise they won’t engage in relentless fighting.

Of course, if the enemy is weaker, that would be a different scenario.

At this moment, he found himself in the dark passageway, utterly unaware of his position within Lingyun Cave.

Prior, the zither sound he could hear had now completely vanished.

Jiang Dali knew that during his battle with the Fire Qilin, he had a brief moment of dizziness, during which he couldn’t recall the route the Fire Qilin ran through, otherwise, with his memory, even if all the surrounding passageways looked similar, finding the way back wouldn’t be difficult.

”Looks like I have to try the agreed-upon method.”

Jiang Dali assessed his strong, robust physique, all his clothes had been burned to ashes, putting him back in an awkward primitive state. He reached into his curled, scorched hair, pulling out a Poison Needle tied in, and sighed in relief.

Fortunately, during the prior battle in the state of the Golden Bell Unbreakable Body, even his hair was reinforced into golden strands, preventing them from being burned completely by the Qilin Fire, otherwise, this Poison Needle that can be sensed by Dongfang would have certainly been lost.

Carefully pinching the Poison Needle, he operated Vajra True Qi, and his fingers instantly turned golden and indestructible as if plated, with a forceful squeeze at the fingertips.

”Crack!”

The Poison Needle instantly snapped into two pieces.

Jiang Dali casually flicked one piece of the Poison Needle, which embedded into the side wall with a ”ding”.

With this Poison Needle as a marker, if he wants to find the Dragon Vein Land again within two or three months, he just needs to bring Dongfang along to search, and there’s a great chance to find it again. However, if too much time passes, the Orochi Poison Blood infused in the Poison Needle will also lose its effect.

After completing these meticulous precautionary measures, Jiang Dali wielded his knife and sprinted along the passage.

When he reached the nearest dark fork, he took a deep breath, and let out a long roar that resembled a lion’s roar or dragon’s cry.

Roar!!!

The violent sound waves shook the Lingyun Cave passage like a hurricane, forming three waves of sound that traveled madly towards the three forked paths, spreading far and wide.

Boom boom boom—

Countless passageways in the entire Lingyun Cave started echoing under this long roar, like a flood surging everywhere, with an astonishing momentum.

In such a place filled with echoing paths, using this manner of roaring to inform others of his location is like climbing a tree to catch a fish. Others might hear the roar, but would only find the echoes surrounding them, making it impossible to pinpoint his exact location.

However, for someone like Murong Qingqing, a musical grandmaster mastering the Stealing Listening Skill, it’s not difficult to distinguish the true sound source among the vast echoes and ultimately determine his position.

This was one of the out-of-range contingency plans previously agreed upon by Jiang Dali and the others.

...

Half a cup of hot tea earlier.

In the five forked paths, Ba Ni and others realized the situation was not good the moment they could no longer hear the combat sounds.

Everyone immediately stopped moving within the passage, remaining in place, and used Murong Qingqing’s zither sound to verify they were still within the thousand-step range from the cave entrance.

This was one of the initial emergency measures agreed upon to avoid further chaos from unnecessary movement.

At this time, only Dongfang Bubai was still moving within the passage, quickly approaching Jiang Dali’s position by sensing the Poison Needle’s range and marking each step with Poison Needles to avoid getting completely lost in Lingyun Cave.

It could be said that among them, only Dongfang Bubai, with the ability to sense the Orochi Poison Blood, could safely traverse a certain range within Lingyun Cave.

However, the speed of the Fire Qilin was truly too fast, even though Dongfang Bubai tried to track, the maze-like forks confused the path, leading to losing contact with Jiang Dali.

As a result, not only was contact through the Poison Needle with Jiang Dali completely severed, but connection with Xiao Feng and others via the Poison Needle also went beyond the sensing range.

In Dongfang Bubai’s Spiritual Sense, only a few marks left by previous Poison Needles remained.

”The changes were much faster than planned. Now it’s completely beyond the scope of the plan.”

Dongfang Bubai’s expression turned exceedingly grim, deciding to adapt to the situation by continuing along the last sensed direction, only for a stone cave to suddenly appear around the corner.

A blaze of fire-red light faintly emanated from within the stone cave.

”The Fire Qilin Sword?”

Dongfang Bubai paused, surprised to see the Fire Qilin Sword standing in the stone cave.

The sword’s scarlet glow illuminated the cave walls, revealing some human figures and lettering-like information, and in the darkness on the ground, a skeletal remains became faintly visible.

Ding!—

Dongfang Bubai nonchalantly thrust a Poison Needle into the stone cave floor, then without hesitation, exhibited a movement technique, continuing to pursue the last sensed direction, without even sparing a moment to touch the potential secret manual and Fire Qilin Sword within the cave.

...

After a while.

A long whistle suddenly swept through the passages of Lingyun Cave like a raging wind, echoing continuously.

Whoa——!

Dongfang Bubai’s figure suddenly halted. Upon hearing the long whistle, a substantial relief washed over him, alleviating his worries, ”This brute, he finally knows to shout. It seems there’s no real danger.”

With this thought in mind, after the whistle paused, a gentle, penetrating zither sound arose suddenly, as melodious as spring water droplets, reaching the ears of everyone scattered within the passages.

Upon hearing this whistle and zither sound, everyone relaxed, realizing Jiang Dali, who was lost, had been found by Murong Qingqing and his location pinpointed. The zither sound guided everyone towards the area from where it emanated.

If Jiang Dali’s whistle was uncontrollable, spreading far and making it impossible for people to determine his exact location,

then the zither sound played by Murong Qingqing, the Sect Master of the Sky Harp Sect, was a completely controllable sound.

She could strum the zither sound to reach everyone’s ears and use her exquisite skills to control the volume, thus managing the range and distance of the zither sound transmission. Those who heard it could gauge, by the volume, how far they were from its source, gradually closing the gap.

It’s much like a series of concentric circles; as they tighten, everyone within the circle moves swiftly toward the center, eventually converging at the core region.

Soon, within various passages,

everyone started moving, following the zither sound.

Dongfang Bubai also moved, retracing the path marked earlier by the poison needle.

In the spiritual sense of perception, as he retraced his steps, the locations of the poison needles representing Xiao Feng and the others began reappearing, establishing connections, as if familiar orbs of light were glowing once more in a dark world, being captured by him.

Simultaneously, the poison needle representing Jiang Dali also appeared in his sensing area, following the zither sound.

Dongfang Bubai thoroughly relaxed at this point, knowing everything was back on track, and everyone had escaped danger.

Everyone...?

Why everyone?

Dongfang Bubai paused in his steps, an inexplicable and astonished emotion surged within him.

Since when did Dongfang Bubai, who never cared for others and only ever concerned himself, find himself thinking of the absurd phrase ”everyone”?

This was unexpected.

...

The world is indeed full of unexpected events.

But since it happened, maybe it wasn’t something that shouldn’t have happened—it was something destined to happen, which perhaps is fate.

Li Xunhuan’s fate ended that very first night, buried alongside everyone at Huo Family Manor.

Yet, Bu Jingyun’s fate had not ended and was still continuing.

He was supposed to have been captured by Xiong Ba, like his mother Yunong.

How could mere women and children escape from the clutches of the World Association Leader Xiong Ba?

Yet he did manage to escape.

Because someone who should already be dead, a nameless and surnameless dead person, appeared near Huo Family Manor not long after the massacre and took Bu Jingyun away.

This nameless person had once created a reputation in the Divine Martial Country that overshadowed even Xiong Ba; wanting to take Bu Jingyun away, Xiong Ba indeed found it challenging to pursue.

Over the years, he had actually been hiding in a village near Huo Family Manor.

Huo Family Manor was always content in its peaceful existence, committed to aiding the world, earning a considerable reputation among the nearby villagers.

But that alone wasn’t enough to disrupt the peaceful life of seclusion and prompt him to act.

At most, he only took away a child who perhaps shouldn’t die and had already escaped.

Because he understood the treacherous nature of the Martial World.

The Martial World is an alluring yet bone-chilling beast.

Every day and night, lives are lost, yet still, many passionately dedicate themselves to it.

For though the Martial World is treacherous, the greed in people’s hearts is even more perilous.

He had once saved many, like Li Xunhuan, those with love in their hearts, but when he turned around, he found more waiting to be rescued.

Some weren’t meant to die, yet ironically perished because of his extended hand, implicated and left him bereft.

From then on, he realized that trying to leave the Martial World required a complete exit, as stepping back in led to more death.

But this time, facing a child who had his entire family slaughtered, his mother captured by enemies, yet showed no signs of crying or even a shred of sadness, stirred something in his heart, once numbed by his erhu, moving him to extend a hand to save.

Perhaps this is destiny!

Intervening means returning to the Martial World, and entails numerous troubles!
