After Li Qiushui left, Zhao Mingyuan first asked about the situation of the people in the thirty-six caves and seventy-two islands at the foot of the mountain.
It was learned that they were still confronting each other at the first natural barrier, Soul Breaking Cliff, and would try to attack from time to time.
It turned out that Li Qiushui just floated up the mountain alone, and did not do anything to the guards of the Juntian tribe.
Therefore, their defense line was not broken.
In addition, because they were intruded into the mountains, they felt guilty and became more active. Even after adjustments, more people were deployed here to defend.
Therefore, the strength here at Duanhun Cliff has greatly increased, the supplies have become more abundant, and the defense has become more impregnable.
Therefore, the attacks of those at the foot of the mountain became increasingly ineffective.
However, now they dare not retreat even if they want to.
After all, to leave is to wait for death.
Of course, in fact, we are just waiting for Tong Lao to fall into disgrace here. But maybe there is a glimmer of hope in their hearts, and they are all waiting for a miracle to happen.
Zhao Mingyuan asked Tong Lao how he planned to deal with them.
Naturally, the Tianshan Child Elder wanted to torture them all to death, but her skills had not yet been restored, and she had to rely on Zhao Mingyuan for protection.
And she naturally saw that Zhao Mingyuan didn't like killing, so she said: "Since they attacked the mountain for the life and death talisman, let's plant a few more life and death talismans for them and let them feel the power of the life and death talisman. I am now a martial artist Until then, I’ll leave this matter to you.”
Since Zhao Mingyuan was asked to plant the talisman of life and death on those people, it was natural to teach Zhao Mingyuan his method.
Therefore, the Tianshan Child Elder passed on the Tianshan Six Yang Palm to Zhao Mingyuan and explained how to plant and unblock the life and death talisman.
With Zhao Mingyuan's current strength, it would be easy to learn the Tianshan Six Yang Palm. After all, to Zhao Mingyuan, these mysteries of the yin and yang changes in internal force are just a layer of window paper, which can be revealed at a glance, so naturally he can learn it easily.
Zhao Mingyuan reached the top of Misty Peak, and now the girls of the Nine Heavens and Nine Tribes already knew that the Tianshan Child Elder was going to pass the Lingjiu Palace to Zhao Mingyuan.
Therefore, all the women they met along the way addressed Zhao Mingyuan as the Young Lord and saluted respectfully.
Zhao Mingyuan just smiled when he saw this, but did not correct him, it was just a title.
Arriving at Soul Broken Cliff, at this time, a wave of attacks had passed, and everyone was resting. Zhao Mingyuan nodded to the girls, said thank you for your hard work, and floated down the steps.
With Zhao Mingyuan's ability to go up and down this stone staircase, there is naturally no danger.
Stepping on the steps under your feet, feeling the residual warmth above, looking at the various traces of knife slashing, stone smashing, fire, etc., as well as the bloodstains and scorch everywhere, you can know how tragic the battle here was.
Are the people at the foot of the mountain not afraid of death?
Of course not, it's because they will definitely die if they don't come up.
It seems that we still have to give people some hope of survival, otherwise it would be a huge force to fight for our lives.
Naturally, people like Thirty-six Cave and Seventy-two Islands under the cliff soon noticed someone coming down the cliff, and they naturally recognized Zhao Mingyuan.
Many people originally thought that Zhao Mingyuan had died on Piaomiao Peak. He believed that he had been killed by the Tianshan Child Lao, so he had no hope for him.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Mingyuan walked away safely now.
In fact, many of these people regarded Li Qiushui as the Tianshan Child Elder. Seeing her floating up the mountain, hundreds of them were unable to stop her at all, and they were all frightened.
They had never seen many such masters before, but the only one was Tianshan Tonglao, so they naturally mistakenly recognized him.
He also saw that since the man in white came up the mountain, the morale of the defenders on the cliff had changed drastically, so he thought that the Tianshan Child Lao had returned.
In the past few days, they were all worried and had a death wish in their hearts.
Unexpectedly, I saw the man in white coming down the mountain not long ago. Everyone was a little confused. So, they stopped their offensive and were discussing what to do next.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Zhao Mingyuan came down.
Everyone looked at Zhao Mingyuan with hope.
After all, they were at the end of their rope. They all hope that Zhao Mingyuan can bring them good news.
Seeing Zhao Mingyuan approaching, everyone hurriedly asked questions.
Someone asked: "Dr. Zhao has been on Piaomiao Peak for such a long time, has he met the Tianshan Child Elder?"
Some people also asked: "Is the woman in white a few days ago the child grandmother of Tianshan? The child grandmother just returned to the mountain gate, did she go down the mountain again?"
Of course, smart people naturally pay more attention to practical things.
For example, Boss Wu waved his hand to stop everyone, and said: "Everyone come one by one, you are in such a mess, who should I ask Daxia Zhao to answer first? Daxia Zhao, I wonder what Tong Lao is going to do with us? Is there any room for easing this matter?" ?”
This is a good question. As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent and waited for Zhao Mingyuan's reply.
Zhao Mingyuan said: "Tong Lao is very angry at what you did."
As soon as these words came out, everyone's hearts trembled.
Even if he had known that this matter would not be resolved so easily, Zhao Mingyuan's words had already set the tone. Obviously, this matter would not be resolved so easily.
Everyone expressed that they did not dare anymore and were willing to admit their mistakes to Tong Lao. They hoped that Zhao Mingyuan could help make peace. Everyone would be grateful.
Zhao Mingyuan said: "Do you think I really didn't do anything?
If I hadn't done anything, do you think you could still be standing here well?
You must have met the senior who went up the mountain a few days ago. Do you know who she is? "
Everyone asked in confusion: "Are you Tong Lao's friend?"
Zhao Mingyuan said: "She is Tong Lao's junior sister. Can you stop her, and can you stop Tong Lao?"
Everyone shook their heads.
Unexpectedly, it was not just her who was as terrifying as Tong Lao, but the entire sect.
Even if they took advantage of Tong Lao's temporary illness and attacked Piaomiao Peak, would they still be able to deal with Tong Lao's disciples?
Then won't they never have the chance to lift the life and death talisman?
When thinking of this, many people feel despair.
But I heard Zhao Mingyuan say: "Fortunately, my master still has some relationship with Tong Lao, so she is a bit mean-spirited."
After everyone heard this, hope was ignited in their hearts.
The news about the Deaf and Mute Valley had already spread before. Everyone also knows that Zhao Mingyuan and Xingxiu Old Immortal Ding Chunqiu come from the same mysterious hermit sect.
In this case, Tianshan Child Elder has a very powerful junior sister, who is probably from some mysterious sect.
It is normal for these secret sects to have some contact with each other and communicate with each other.
Just listen to Zhao Mingyuan continue to say: "Under my persuasion, Child Elder has agreed to give you some mercy.
However, Child Elder said that your behavior made her very sad.
Moreover, you also caused a lot of damage to Lingjiu Palace, causing many casualties in Lingjiu Palace.
Therefore, it is natural not to be lenient.
For my sake, she reluctantly agreed to give you a lighter punishment and leave you a way out.
However, death penalty can be avoided, but living crime cannot be avoided.
Punishment is of course impossible. "
Although what Zhao Mingyuan said about the damage they caused to Lingjiu Palace sounds like nonsense.
But everyone knows that success and failure cannot go without punishment, so they all have a premonition. Seeing that the situation is not good, they can accept it as long as they are given a way to survive.
Just listen to Zhao Mingyuan say: "First of all, anyone who has used torture on that girl must die. That girl is Tong Lao's heart and soul, which is different from ordinary people. This is something Tong Lao particularly emphasizes."
Zhao Mingyuan looked at Boss Wu. He was the leader. He was the one who kidnapped Child Elder and tortured her in every possible way. Naturally, she could not escape.
The leader is shot, and Boss Wu is the leader. If he doesn't die, who will?
Boss Wu looked around and saw that many people avoided his gaze, but they were vaguely blocking the way down the mountain.
A dead Taoist friend is not a poor Taoist. Anyway, it's not you who dies, so what are you afraid of?
They came together because of their common interests, but now that they have broken up, Boss Wu is not surprised.
Boss Wu was just feeling a pity. If they had used that girl's blood as an alliance, then maybe now they would have no way out. There would be only one way to go, and he would not be abandoned.
However, what he didn't know was that if they had refused to give the Tianshan Child Lao to Zhao Mingyuan, they would have been killed by Zhao Mingyuan.
Therefore, Mr. Wu smiled boldly and said: "If the next person is sacrificed and all the brothers are saved, then what's wrong? It's a worthy death for me. But I don't know if Child Elder has any other conditions?"
At this time, Boss Wu was hoping that the more stringent the remaining conditions would be, the better. Maybe everyone could not help but continue the fight. Then he can still have a chance of survival, at least he can live for a while longer.
But I heard Zhao Mingyuan say: "As for the second item, Child Elder is indeed ill and needs you to donate various medicinal materials, spiritual herbs, spiritual objects, etc. The sooner the better, the more the better. Let's see how you perform. Let us decide the final punishment you receive."
When everyone heard the second article, many people actually showed joy on their faces.
Could it be that this Tianshan Child Elder is really old and dying?
It's a pity that after she dies, what will happen to the life and death talismans on everyone's body?
As for some elixirs, they often collect them, so there is no doubt about them. It's nothing more than spending more money, and at worst it's just throwing the pot away. Anyway, I have arranged for my disciples to handle it, so this is easy to solve.
Then, I heard Zhao Mingyuan continue: "The first and last point is to punish you for betraying Tong Lao and make you remember.
Child Elder said, you betrayed her for the life and death talisman, so I will use the life and death talisman to punish you.
Add three more life and death talismans to each of you and activate them once so that you can relive the feeling of the life and death talismans to prevent you from betraying your heart again. "
As soon as they heard the life and death talisman, everyone in these thirty-six caves and seventy-two islands changed their expressions.
When the life and death talisman strikes, the pain that makes you unable to live or die is something you have experienced once and never want to bear again.
Unexpectedly, the final punishment turned out to be the Talisman of Life and Death.
Suddenly, the atmosphere at the scene became tense again.
