Walking by the Abyss on Thin Ice

Chapter 33 – Must scold him

Su Yun returned to Tianmen Town. Before entering the town, he carefully sniffed his body to ensure that there was no smell of blood before walking in.

"The little brat did something bad!"

As soon as he entered the town, he was hit on the head by a small stone, which rolled away from his feet.

Su Yun looked up and showed a sunny and childish smile, "Uncle Qu, you're slandering me."

Uncle Qu was still the same as usual, climbing up to Tianmen and knocking and carving on it.

The old man put down his axe and chisel and smiled, "You look like a little fox that just stole a chicken, sneaky and suspicious. And you say you didn't do anything bad?"

He sat on the scaffold and said leisurely, "There's still a smell of blood on you, you can't hide it from me. Come up, let's talk!"

.

Su Yun hesitated for a moment.

Among all the residents of Tianmen Town, he was closest to Uncle Qu, but since he accidentally opened the spirit of Tianmen and entered another world where he saw Uncle Qu's body, he has intentionally or unintentionally distanced himself from Uncle Qu.

Before, he used to climb up to the scaffold and listen to the old man tell some strange stories, such as the ghost market at night and the dragon falling from the sky, which scared him so much that he couldn't sleep at night.

Su Yun climbed up to the scaffold and came to Uncle Qu's side.

"Tianshi Yuan is an amazing place."

Uncle Qu lay back, hands behind his head, "Tianshi is the city in the sky, and Yuan is the city wall. Tianshi Yuan is said to be the city in the sky that fell to the human world. Therefore, strange things always happen here. Little brat, is your eyesight better now?"

Su Yun also lay down. His vision was still dark, and he couldn't see the sky of Tianmen Town. "It's getting better. If I use all my strength to stir up my blood and Qi, I can break through what's blocking my pupils, but only for a short time. However, if I can cultivate the Honglu Shifting technique to the sixth level, the shadow of the immortal sword will no longer be able to block my pupils."

"That person named Qiu Shuijing is a very talented person."

Uncle Qu laughed, "When your eyes are healed, if you see strange things, don't be surprised. Because this is Tianshi Yuan, the strangest place in the world."

Su Yun's face was calm, and he nodded silently.

He had seen Uncle Qu's body on the stone bridge in another world. Uncle Qu said this because he was worried that Su Yun would not be able to accept the truth after his eyes were healed.

Uncle Qu continued, "Tianshi Yuan is said to be the city where immortals live. It fell into the mortal world for some unknown reason. Many people have tried to find the secrets of immortality and becoming an immortal here, but without exception, they have all failed."

He sat up, feeling emotional, "So many kings, ministers, and generals from ancient times to the present have turned to dust. They built their tombs here, hoping to live forever, but in the end, they were nothing but manure."He picked up the axe and continued carving the Tianmen gate. "Little brat, when Elder Cen brought you here six years ago, he said your blindness was related to us. Tianmen town owes you and we must raise you and not let you die outside. Elder Cen is our senior, and we also agree with this. Recently, Elder Cen passed away, and when your eyesight recovers, we will no longer owe you. That will be the day you should leave."

Su Yun was stunned. "Uncle Qu..."

Uncle Qu leisurely said, "You have the aura of killing. You have grown up. These days, I've seen you deal with danger decisively. Your mentality has also grown up. When your eyesight recovers, you will be an adult who doesn't need our care anymore. You are no longer a little brat. Go down."

Su Yun was stunned. "Uncle Qu has been secretly watching over me? He knows the danger I've encountered these days..."

He was full of gratitude in his heart and silently walked down the scaffolding. "Actually, I have always been grateful to Uncle Qu. He took care of me in Tianmen town, and in another world, I also met the immortal diagram next to his corpse and got a great opportunity. Only then did my strength soar. What does it matter if Uncle Qu is a man or a ghost?"

Two days later, Su Yun's body was like a pure white furnace, and his cultivation had reached the fifth level with the changes in the furnace.

His body functions also became stronger, his heart like a furnace burning constantly, providing strong blood for his body. His lungs and internal organs were like a huge bellows, which could be activated at any time to make his blood more vigorous!

His body also gradually became stronger, and he could hold more blood in his body. He could manifest dragon claws with his blood, without the need for immortal ropes, and could run quickly on the cliffs.

Whenever he activated his blood to flow through his eyes, he could even feel the seal of the immortal sword loosening, as if it could be broken open by his blood at any time.

As long as he broke the seal of the immortal sword in his eyes, he would be able to see the truth about Tianmen town.

Su Yun hesitated for a long time, but still didn't do it.

He had always wanted to heal his eyes and leave Tianmen town to study in the city, but when the day really came, he hesitated.

He didn't not want to grow up, but he didn't want to leave this hometown and these lovely people.

Even, he was a little afraid and resistant to seeing the truth about Tianmen town!

However, with his cultivation, the changes in the furnace to the fifth level, and his blood becoming stronger and stronger, when his furnace and blood evolved to the sixth level and turned blue, regardless of whether he wanted it or not, his strong blood would surge into his eyes, making it impossible for the seal of the immortal sword to block his pupils!

The seal of the immortal sword and the seal of Tianmen town would not disappear because of this, but they would stay in his pupils. However, by then, they would no longer affect his vision!

Qiu Shuijing was an extraordinary person. His judgment of Su Yun's eye disease was extremely accurate, worthy of the residents of Tianmen town's evaluation of him.Hua Hu and three little foxes returned from Huangji Town, and Su Yun's life returned to its former state. He woke up early every morning to practice facing the sunrise over the sea, then went hunting and foraging with the foxes, and finally went to steal vegetables from the vegetable garden in Niujiazhuang.

If there was moonlight at night, they would go together to collect moon essence.

Occasionally, they would also go to the Snake Stream to catch fish. Now that the whole village no longer depended on it for food, it had become much safer, and villagers from Huangcun and Linyi Village also dared to come here to move around.

The fish in the Snake Stream were rare and precious because they were close to the Zonglong Tomb and were rumored to have dragon blood. They were less spiny and delicious, with a great taste. All that was needed was to steam them in a pot with some scallions and pour some hot oil over them, and it would be a delicious dish that made people salivate.

What was most peculiar was that eating the fish from the Snake Stream made people feel an upsurge of qi and blood, and their cultivation speed increased a lot compared to before.

"No wonder the whole village has been lingering here for food. It turns out there is this benefit." Hua Hu was envious.

During these days, their cultivation speed had also become very fast. Hua Hu had also practiced the Honglu Shifting to the fifth level, and the three little foxes had practiced to the fourth level. Obviously, the fish in the Snake Stream had benefited them a lot.

Su Yun was also getting closer to the sixth level of the Honglu Shifting. Occasionally, when he felt the surge of qi and blood into his eyes, he could vaguely see a fairy sword rotating in the air.

As his qi and blood increased, this fairy sword became clearer and clearer, and there was also the imprint of Tianmen Town in his eyes.

And those eight towering arches gradually became clearer too.

In addition to Tianmen Town, there was also the North Sea in his eyes, with huge water pillars that rose up to an unknown height, spinning and ascending to another world beyond the sky!

Many ships sailed on the turbulent North Sea, and some ships sailed on the water pillars, appearing and disappearing in the waves, heading towards another world!

This was the last scene Su Yun saw six years ago.

In the valley of the Zonglong Tomb, Su Yun closed his eyes, and this scene was imprinted in his pupils, even if he closed his eyes, he could not erase it.

"Little Yun Ge, come over here quickly!" Hu Buping called from the front.

Su Yun opened his eyes and walked forward. Whenever night fell, the Zonglong Tomb would become extremely dangerous, and the Dragon Spirits would appear, flying around their own bones, and the powerful pressure of qi and blood would close their senses, not even knowing how they died!

But during the day, the Dragon Spirits disappeared, and it became very safe here.

Su Yun and the four fox demons would come here during the day to "study the dragon corpse" in a systematic way.

To study things to understand principles, this was the essence of cultivation.

Back then, "Leader Xu Ge" led the scholars of the Tian Dao Academy to study the dragon corpse and comprehend sixteen volumes of Dharma, and they were able to comprehend amazing techniques and abilities. Su Yun and Hua Hu were confident that they could do the same.

However, the dragon corpse at this time had no flesh and blood, only bones, so they could only come to "study the dragon bones".

They had all practiced the Crocodile Dragon Song, and had also watched the process of the whole village's food evolution into a Jiaolong. Su Yun had even transformed the Crocodile Dragon Song into the Jiaolong Song, and Hua Hu was also in the process of transformation. Therefore, the study of the dragon bones was extremely important to them.Su Yun obtained the dragon form spirit in the immortal diagram of another world. He watched as the entire village transformed into dragons during their meal, and he obtained the dragon's blood essence. However, he had never seen the dragon's bones, muscles, textures, meridians, tendons, internal organs, and other organs.

Now that the dragon bones were in front of him, he naturally couldn't let them go.

As the saying goes, it's easy to draw skin, but difficult to draw bones. The difficulty lies in the fact that ordinary people cannot access the bones. For example, visualizing fierce beasts such as tigers, crocodiles, and even monsters, ordinary people can only take a distant glance. If discovered by the fierce beast, they would most likely not escape with their lives.

However, studying material objects requires close observation, observing their essence, observing their movements, and even dissecting the fierce beast to observe the operation of each organ in the body while it is still alive, understanding its principles, and insight into its mysteries. Furthermore, observing the dynamic movement of the bones during its actions is something that ordinary people cannot do.

For scholars, it is also extremely dangerous. Only with the guidance of a famous teacher or the financial strength of a powerful family can one possibly learn the essence.

However, mythical creatures like true dragons can only be taught to scholars through sculpture or painting, even famous teachers and powerful families can hardly find a real dragon!

In front of Su Yun was the dragon bones of a true dragon!

"Dig it out!"

Hua Hu stood in front of the dragon tomb, full of energy, and ordered the little foxes, "Dig it out and study it!"

Zhai Zhu: Hmph, I had a dream last night that a blue round seal was stamped on my butt, and I was pushed to the market. Zhai Zhu found that many people came to buy me with recommendation tickets. Is this what it feels like to be pampered? So happy, hehe~~
