Alienated Martial Arts

Deep in the dark rain curtain.

A figure emerged from nowhere and appeared silently next to the thatched cottage.

Wei Tao frowned slightly and took back the steps he was about to take.

"Void Walker?"

He exhaled softly, his expression full of surprise.

The last time I saw a real Void Walker was in the City of Gloom where the Earth Immortal was remnant. It has been a long time since then.

But that's not the point.

What really surprised him was that he could actually see the existence of the Void Walker within the star ring.

It was indeed somewhat beyond his expectation.

Because this world is shrouded in a lot of fog.

Even if he possesses the magical power of the void, breaking through the barrier is greatly hindered, not to mention other void walkers, which is absolutely difficult.

Yan Rong's expression changed slightly and he bowed in that direction.

Her tone was respectful, "Yan Rong has met senior Xu Mu."

"It seems you have encountered an enemy that is difficult to deal with."

A middle-aged man appeared out of the dark rain curtain and slowly came to Yan Rong's side.

After a pause, he continued, "I just came from the mountains and saw the remaining remains of Elder Qi. Could it be that this person also did it?"

"Senior, what you mean is that Qi Bo is actually dead!?"

Yan Rong couldn't help but narrowed his eyes, a cold light flashed in his eyes.

The middle-aged man nodded. Although his tone was calm, his anger could be clearly felt.

“We value Qiyuan’s special abilities, so we absorbed him and gave him the position of branch elder as special treatment.

Even if you break through the original level and become a virtual realm spiritualist, it is Elder Qi who exchanges his own merit for our help.

As a result, he died right under your nose. It has to be said to be a very heavy blow to the development of our follow-up plan. "

Until this moment, he had not even looked at Wei Tao.

Instead, he kept his eyes on Yan Rong.

"So, you made an unforgivable mistake."

The middle-aged man had an expressionless face and spoke slowly.

Chi!

There are no signs.

A blood arrow spurted out from Yan Rong's mouth.

The aura of the whole person can be seen with the naked eye declining.

For just a moment, she couldn't even maintain her standing position.

His legs went weak and he collapsed on the ground.

Such a sudden change also made Wei Tao's pupils shrink suddenly and he narrowed his eyes suddenly.

At this moment, he even had the intention of retreating.

As a virtual realm spiritualist, Yan Rong's level of strength is naturally not comparable to that of Mo Li and others.

Although he was far from using all his strength in the sneak attack just now, he could still see that she was also quite cautious and had certain reservations.

Therefore, compared to those great spiritual masters, Miss Yan who has reached the virtual realm does have stronger strength.

However, I am afraid of comparison in everything.

A virtual realm spiritualist just collapsed on the ground, without any ability to resist.

More importantly, from the time the middle-aged man appeared to when Yan Rong was seriously injured without any warning, he didn't even notice how the other party acted.

If he didn't have strong confidence in his defensive ability and wanted to stay to figure out some things, Wei Tao would have left long ago, running away and never looking back.

"Miss Yan Rong, although you are not yet one of ours, since you have made a mistake, you must be punished accordingly."

Xu Mu stood with his hands behind his hands, looking down, "Since Elder Qi is no longer here, and you are the junior he brought up, it is best to go down below to accompany him, to avoid Elder Qi having a long journey to hell and being lonely all the way."

puff! ! !

As the sound falls.

Yan Rong spurted out another mouthful of blood.

The whole person was already out of breath, almost on the edge of life and death.

She couldn't even maintain a paralyzed posture and fell to the ground.

It looked like a fresh corpse.

It was only then that Xu Miao raised his head slightly and looked at Wei Tao, who was standing still not far away.

"I thought you would take the opportunity to escape, but the result was beyond my expectation."

He was silent for a moment and sighed softly, "I have to say that you made the right choice and avoided the trap I set for you in advance, which can save you some pain and can live for a longer period of time. "

Wei Tao took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.

The spirit is concentrated in one place.

The strength of the whole body is integrated into one.

The blood network acupoints are trembling and rhythmic, ready to explode with all their strength at any time, no matter the cost.

But on the surface, the whole person's Qi is extremely restrained, and there is no sign of any vision at all.

Even the clothes that had been kept dry began to get wet from the falling rain, with drops of water dripping down the hem.

"You are a void walker, and an organized void walker."

“But what makes me even more curious is how you broke through the fog barrier and arrived in this world.

In addition, if you want to leave from here, how do you operate? "

Wei Tao spoke slowly, his body sinking slightly.

The left foot moves forward slowly close to the ground, like a bow and a horse nailed to the ground.

His hands were hidden in his sleeves and clenched into fists at the same time.

Put one hand on your chest and the other on your waist.

He took on the most familiar red line fist stance that had already been engraved deep in Zhenling's soul.

"You also know about Void Walker?"

"It's also beyond my expectation."

Xu Miao was slightly startled, and his scrutinizing eyes fell on Wei Tao.

Wei Tao said slowly, "I have met people similar to you before, so I know your existence."

"Anyone who has seen us before?"

The middle-aged man's eyes flashed, "Do you know that person's name and where he is now? If you tell me everything, I can spare your life."

"Spare me alive..."

Wei Tao lowered his eyes, with an inexplicable smile on his face.

After a moment of silence, he slowly shook his head, "Although you are very strong and can control the virtual realm spiritualists at will, the conditions you gave are not enough for me to tell you the truth."

"If you don't know the sorrow of death, you don't know the joy of life. I'm afraid you haven't experienced the great horror between life and death, so you made such arrogant remarks in front of me."

Xu Miao looked up at the gauze-like night rain and breathed out a soft breath, "But I still decided to give you a chance. As long as you can take the initiative to tell the whereabouts of the Void Walker you saw, I can still consider sparing you." ."

"My life has always been in my own hands."

"If you want to threaten me, you just don't know if your fist is strong enough."

When Wei Tao spoke again, his breath became restrained again.

Even the voice suddenly became very soft.

The voices were barely audible.

But it could clearly reach the ears of the middle-aged man.

"You answer my question first, how can you pass through the fog barrier and travel between heaven and earth here? Then I can tell you about other void walkers."

"How dare you take such a tough stance in front of me."

"It seems that you won't shed tears until you drop the coffin, and you won't give up until you hit the wall."

Xu Miao suddenly laughed, but there was no smile in his eyes, "You think you can scare me by putting on such a funny pose?"

"Forget it, I'll beat you half to death first, leaving only one breath, and then see if you can still be as tough-talking as you are now..."

Before he could finish his words, a thunder suddenly exploded.

In an instant, the wind roared like thousands of ghosts crying in unison.

It causes rainwater to flow backwards, from bottom to top, straight into the sky.

Then the darkness and death rolled.

The gray and blue air flow surges.

It covered the figure that was sinking slightly and pointing its fist at the sky and the earth.

boom! ! !

There was another blazing white flame burning.

Bloody light surrounded it, and screams continued.

In the end, everything was covered by the rising mist and clouds.

Boom!

The second thunder suddenly sounded.

In an instant, there were rumbling thunders.

It was also mixed with low roaring roars.

Rolling and stirring in a messy manor.

"Beat me half to death!?"

"I don't believe that you can still be the Lord of the Heavenly Immortal Realm!?"

"Attribution of Five Spirits, take my punch!"

boom!

A majestic wave of air suddenly exploded.

The terrifying shock wave spread rapidly in all directions.

Wei Tao took a step forward, and his figure instantly expanded.

The body is covered with blue and black double scales and is covered with sharp bone spurs.

The two pairs of wings on its back spread out, and the rapid flapping brought about the howling of bloody wind.

The long tail behind him is like a trident, twisting and turning like a dragon.

It seemed as if the dark night was torn apart and flashed out.

Under the blazing white light, Xu Miao's face was also pale.

He narrowed his eyes suddenly, and his pupils instantly shrank to the size of a pinhead.

The eyes that looked up were full of confusion and doubt, and fell on the ferocious body through many obstacles.

"Is this guy the same person just now?"

"He's not human at all!"

"This level of power may be difficult for even the branch leader to resist!"

"So, I've just been talking to this monster?"

"And you keep irritating and threatening it!?"

Xu Miao bit her lower lip so hard that she couldn't even feel the pain.

There is great terror between life and death.

At this moment, he seemed to have fallen into a bottomless abyss called despair.

My heart has been completely occupied by fear and helplessness.

There is no room for any other emotion.

However, under the control of his survival instinct, he still exerted all his strength to try to delay the imminent death.

Boom!

There was another dull thunder explosion.

A fist slammed down.

The black and white light that just lit up instantly shattered and penetrated.

The ferocious and huge fist continued to fall.

Although there was an obvious slowdown at the end, it was still like a giant battering ram, hitting the ground heavily.

boom!

Mud and rocks surged from the ground instantly, like a volcano erupting, violently spraying into the dark night sky.

A huge pit was created out of thin air.

There are also dense and huge cracks spreading outward from the edge of the pit.

In just a few breaths, the entire Basin Manor was completely covered and swept away.

The violent turbulence even triggered mudslides, which crashed down from the surrounding peaks, washing away and burying everything.

Time passed little by little.

The smoke and dust slowly dispersed, and the rumble of thunder gradually disappeared.

Thick raindrops enveloped the sky and earth again.

Under the dark night, a pair of eyes quietly lit up.

Wei Tao stood up straight little by little, looking down at the bottom of the pit.

In the end, nothing was found, not even a hair.

He took a deep breath and exhaled it again, and the corners of his eyes and mouth twitched slightly unconsciously.

"I thought it was so powerful, but this is what happened?"

"He's dead now. Is this how the horse rider dies?"

"He is simply too weak to be unreasonable. How dare he say such nonsense in front of me."

"Even if the loser who couldn't even catch my punch is stronger than poor Miss Yan Rong, his strength is limited.

So, for such a weakling, how did he kill the Void Realm Spiritualist silently? "

Unknowingly, the rain quietly became heavier.

The entire villa has disappeared, leaving only dense cracks and the huge pit in the center.

Dirty muddy water poured in quickly, making a gurgling sound.

Wei Tao tightened his figure little by little, and the spider silk swam smartly, weaving a new piece of clothing on his body.

He seemed a little unwilling, and searched carefully in the mud at the bottom of the pit.

In the end, nothing was found, not even a hair.

"Screwed it up, I screwed it all up."

"It took a lot of effort to see a void walker who came to this world, but without even asking for any information, I punched him into pieces and burned him into ashes."

Wei Tao sighed secretly, turned around and prepared to leave.

But the next moment, he stopped without warning.

His eyes filled with self-blame lit up with a faint light, and he looked down at the bottom of the pit through the turbid muddy water.

The tip of his nose twitched and he smelled the faint smell of blood, mixed with the unique fragrance of vegetation.

And in his eyes, he saw a broken and twisted body, with less than half of its body left, deeply buried in thick mud.

There were also branches and vines that looked like roots, connected to the broken body, constantly injecting soft spiritual power into it, and struggling to maintain the remaining trace of vitality.

"She's not dead yet."

"But there's only one step left before death."

"These branches and vines are a bit interesting. They come from the same source as the aura of the spiritual sacred tree that I sensed that day. They also seem to have some special connection with the sacred trees in the three overseas mountains of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Moreover, compared to the branches and leaves of the three overseas sacred trees, the power provided by these branches and roots is purer and seems to be closer to the origin of life. "

Wei Tao fell silent, his expression thoughtful.

I was thinking that if I find a way home, I would dig up part of the sacred tree in the Chishan Spiritual Realm before leaving, take it back and plant it on Qinglin Mountain, so that my senior sister can use it for practice at any time.

After a while, the broken body was dug out by him.

In silence, Jialan's first spiritual pattern quietly appeared.

A spiritual thread was separated from it and carefully inserted into a wound.

After a dozen breaths, the second spiritual thread submerged.

Then the third one, the fourth one.

In the end, dozens of spiritual threads penetrated.

Time passed little by little.

The broken body showed no reaction.

Apart from a little bit of vitality still hanging around, no changes had occurred at all.

"I originally thought about bringing her back to life to see if I could get any clues about the Void Walker."

"Now it seems that she is too seriously injured, and even my reinforcements cannot save her life."

Wei Tao continued to wait for a moment and slowly stretched out a finger.

At this moment, a sound like mosquitoes and ants suddenly sounded.

If it weren't for his keen perception, he wouldn't even be able to hear clearly.

"I don't want to die."

Just before the finger pointed, a voice as thin as a mosquito or ant reached Wei Tao's ears again.

And it gets louder and louder, like the shrill cry of a night owl.

"I don't want to die yet."

"I don't want to die!"

"I don't want to die!!!"

Her body trembled violently and she began to desperately draw spiritual power from the roots all over the ground.

The flesh and blood in the wound also began to squirm violently, growing and healing crazily.

Wei Tao injected a few more spiritual threads and observed carefully in silence.

Over time, new and tender skin covers the body surface again.

The originally bloody and broken body gradually turned into an alluring and graceful figure.

But this isn't the end, it's just the beginning.

When the last wound healed, more drastic changes suddenly began.

A layer of cyan scales covered her body.

Immediately afterwards, on top of the cyan scales, a second layer of black scales was rapidly forming.

And then there's the third level.

They were red scales that looked like blood, growing on green and black scales.

Finally, there are the branches connected to her body.

They were woven and entangled as if they had life, and formed a fourth layer of cyan heavy armor, completely wrapping her whole body.

Not even a single gap can be seen on the face.

Finally, everything quieted down.

Wei Tao took two steps back and looked at the slender and ferocious body soaked in the mud. Even he felt a little surprised.

Three layers of defensive scales, plus a layer of heavy green wood armor.

Even with his restored power level, if he were to attack in his normal form, it would be difficult for him to break through it even with all his strength.

So, after poor Miss Yan experienced life and death, she came to a profound realization and learned from the pain. Taking advantage of the opportunity to recover and strengthen her body, she instinctively set up crazy defenses for herself?

Another period of time passed.

She slowly opened her eyes, her eyes full of confusion.

It wasn't until a voice sounded that she suddenly woke up.

"Now that you're awake, hurry up and get up."

"I have something to ask you about the Void Walker."

Yan Rong immediately stood up and knelt on the ground motionless.

While she was thinking, she told all the information she knew.

Wei Tao closed his eyes and listened carefully.

Until he heard about Qi Yuan, his expression became weird again.

He also didn't expect that the guy he killed casually had such a special ability.

It can be positioned through the fog barrier in the void, like a lighthouse providing guidance for the void walker.

In addition, based on Qiyuan's spiritual technique called "Hidden Ruoxu", it acts on the magic circle when the shuttle comes, and can also help the void walker resist the terrifying erosion of the fog barrier, so that people can arrive safely here.

Soon after, Wei Tao obtained a secret record of spiritual arts called Shenzang Ruoxu.

He read it carefully, closed the volume and fell into deep thought.

A look of loss quietly appeared on his face.

It has been such a long time since he obtained the magical power of the void through Emperor Wu's inheritance seed. This is the first time he has seen a similar existence similar to himself.

Although Qiyuan will most likely not reach the level of Void Zongheng, compared with the Void Walkers he knows, he can definitely be regarded as a special existence.

According to Yan Rong, Hidden Ruoxu is not a spiritual skill of the Yan family, but Qi Bo realized it through his own creation.

But after some thinking and deduction, Wei Tao believed that this was not Qi Yuan's own spiritual technique.

Because the spiritual art of Shenzhen Ruoxu is very strange.

It's more like someone made an in-depth study of the Star Ring Spiritual Technique, then combined it with other cultivation methods, and finally created a spiritual technique specifically for Qiyuan based on his special features.

Thinking of this, Wei Tao slowly gathered his thoughts.

His expression also became serious.

If such a person really exists.

So his cultivation realm, the high level he stands at, and even his vision and knowledge are definitely not comparable to those of ordinary people.

Thinking further, if this person is in the Chishan Spiritual Realm now.

So who is he?

What do you want to do and what is your purpose?

They are all worthy of his attention and attention.

It would be best to get useful information from him to help him escape from this world and find his way home.

………………

……………………

"Mr. Wei, it's time for us to set off."

In the early morning, the sun had just risen.

Yan Ling knocked on the door gently.

Inside the room, Wei Tao slowly opened his eyes and concealed the third spiritual pattern of Jialan, which was only the last bit to be completed.

He picked up the tea cup that had already been cooled and drank it all in one gulp, exhaling a breath of exhaustion.

Since rescuing Yan Rong, he has not taken any further action against the Yan family's main house.

Instead, he hid in the small courtyard and devoted all his energy to practice.

Almost day and night, he devoted himself to studying and deducing spiritual arts.

When I was tired from practicing the Jialan Spirit Pattern, I changed my mind to Hidden Ruogu to change my mind.

After working without sleep for more than ten days, I finally saw the dawn of Jialan's third spiritual pattern.

But for another secret technique that is so deeply hidden, I have never been able to really get into it, and there is still a long way to go before I can get started.

There was a soft squeaking sound.

Wei Tao opened the door of his room and saw the sunshine of the Chishan Spiritual Realm for the first time in a long time.

Yan Ling bowed with utmost respect.

"Sir, the carriage has been prepared outside. If we leave now, we will arrive before noon."

She took a careful look at Wei Tao's expression, calmed her tone, and continued, "Yesterday afternoon, Sister Yan Rong came again and delivered a batch of chalcedony and elixir. I dare not disturb your husband's retreat. , and put them all on the carriage."

Wei Tao was still thinking about the construction of Jialan's third pattern. Hearing this, he just nodded without comment and walked straight towards the courtyard gate.

Yan Ling quickly followed behind.

Looking at the back, she was filled with doubts and confusion, but she didn't dare to ask.

I don’t know why the strongest member of the younger generation of the Yan family, and even Yan Rong, who has a strong voice in the entire big house, would come here again and again with such a low profile, without any complaints even if he couldn’t see Mr. Wei.
