HEAVEN'S OFFICIAL BLESSING (Mo Xiang Tong Xiu)

Among the gods of the heavens, there was a famous laughing stock known throughout the three realms. Legend has it that eight hundred years ago, there was an ancient country within the Central Plains called Xian Le nation. The ancient nation of Xian Le had vast territory, abundant resources and content citizens. The country had four treasures: delicate beauties aplenty, thriving arts & literature, treasures of gold and jewels and last but not least, their renown Royal Highness the Crown Prince. This person, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince....you could say.... was a strange man. The Emperor and Empress considered him to be the apple of their eyes. They doted on him immensely and would often proudly proclaim: “In the future, my son will surely become a wise monarch, leaving a reputable impression for generations to come .” Yet, in the regards of what came with royalty, of riches, power and honor, the Crown Prince had no interest. What he was interested in, quoting the very words he often said to himself, was—— “I want to save the common folks!” The young prince cultivated in earnest. During this time, two short stories became widely circulated. . The first story occurred when he was seventeen years old. That year, the nation of Xian Le held a magnificent Offering to the Gods parade. Although this tradition had already been abandoned for numerous centuries, through surviving ancient texts and verbal stories, one could imagine the grandeur of the event.. Offering to the Gods day, Martial God Main Street. Both sides of the Main Street were overflowing with a sea of people. The aristocrats were seated on top of high buildings as they exchanged friendly chatter; while the imperial guards cleared the way with their impressive armours clinking. Young girls danced gracefully as their snow-white hands scattered flower petals like rain, filling the sky as far as the eye could see. It made people question whether the dancing maidens were more beautiful or the flowers themselves. Melodious notes sounded from within golden carriages and floated throughout the whole Imperial City. Behind honorable guards, sixteen white horses with golden bridles walked side-by-side as they pulled forward a magnificent platform. Located on top of the tall, magnificent platform was the focus of everyone’s attention, there stood the martial artist to perform a show to please the Gods. During the festive heavenly parade, the martial artist would adorn a golden mask, don splendid garments and wield a sword in one hand. He would perform the role of the first military deity in a millennium to have subdued demonic beasts——Martial God Heavenly Emperor Jun Wu. Being selected as the martial artist to perform such a show could be considered equivalent as to receiving the utmost honour, and thus the selection criteria was extremely strict. This year, the one who was chosen was none other than His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. The entire nation was convinced that he would surely be able to become the most marvellous martial artist to perform such a performance since the beginning of time. However, on that day, something unexpected occurred. During that time, the martial god on the magnificent stage was just about to land a killing blow on a demon. This was the most exciting scene, and thus the people on both sides of the Main Street were fired up with passion. The people on the city walls were also becoming more rowdy as they started outdoing each other in sticking their heads out to see, both struggling and shoving. Right at this moment, a young child fell from the top of the city gate tower. DISCLAIMER: This story is not mine, I did not wrote or own this, I really just want to share it to everybody.

Chapter 43

Shi Qingxuan said, "There's no way? That's impossible. "

He held the flame in one hand,

The other hand groped on the wall,

As if he wanted to find out if there was any mechanism on it. He used a few techniques to break the illusion, but the wall did not move. He was at his wit's end and said,

"Should I penetrate it?"

Xie Lian said, "That would cause too much of a commotion,

The entire Paradise Workshop would be alarmed. "

Shi Qingxuan placed his hand on the stone wall,

He sent out a wave of spiritual energy. After a long while,

He stopped,

He said, "Even if I wanted to, I wouldn't be able to penetrate it. This wall is probably at least ten feet thick."

However, Xie Lian had clearly seen the Crescent Moon Emissary enter this place with his own eyes,

It couldn't be that he was sneaky,

Just to enter a dead end like this to meditate? There must be other methods inside, so the two of them looked around carefully. Not long after,

Xie Lian said, "Lord Wind Master, look at the ground,

There seems to be something there. "

He pointed to the ground, and Shi Qingxuan immediately lowered his palm,

The two of them squatted down together.

The ground of this tunnel was paved with countless square bricks,

Each square brick was the size of a small door. And in front of this stone wall, the square brick they were stepping on had a picture drawn on it. The picture was not big,

It was a small person, throwing dice.

Shi Qingxuan raised his head and said, "Could it be that this is the same as the method to open the door above, that we have to throw the correct number to open this stone wall?"

Xie Lian nodded slightly and said, "It seems like that's the case. However, I didn't come in with the Crescent Moon Emissary, so I don't know how many points are needed to clear this place."

Shi Qingxuan said, "We're already here, it's not practical to go back and investigate. Let's just randomly throw one to see."

Xie Lian also agreed and said, "Lord Wind Master, you can try. I … I don't know how many times this luck I borrowed can last."

Shi Qingxuan did not decline. He took the dice and threw it on the ground, saying, "How is it?"

He threw a 'two' and a 'five'. The two of them waited for a moment, but the stone wall did not open. Xie Lian kept the dice and said, "As expected, it won't work."

Shi Qingxuan suddenly said, "Your Highness, look at your feet, the pattern has changed!"

Xie Lian immediately lowered his head. Sure enough, the pattern on the square brick on the ground was originally a small person playing dice. At this time, the color gradually faded, and gradually deepened, turning into another picture. It looked like a round, fat, black worm.

Shi Qingxuan said, "What is this thing?"

Xie Lian guessed, "Earth Dragon? Leeches? They look very similar. There are many of them in the fields. I've seen many of them. "

Shi Qingxuan said, "What exactly did you do to see so many …"

As soon as he finished speaking, he disappeared.

Not only him, but Xie Lian had also disappeared. Just now, when they said the word 'toy', both of them felt the ground beneath their feet become empty. The next moment, they fell into a hole in the ground.

It turned out that the stone wall was not a door at all. It was a real stone wall, and the square brick they were stepping on was the real door. After throwing the dice, the door suddenly opened and immediately closed. Xie Lian and Shi Qingxuan fell from the air for a moment before landing heavily on the ground.

Fortunately, the ground was extremely soft. Although two deep human-shaped pits were formed, the two of them did not feel much pain from the fall and were about to stand up immediately. Who knew that when they stood there, their heads would bump into each other, and both of them let out an "Ah!". Xie Lian covered his head with one hand and groped above with the other. He only touched the soil that was as soft and wet as the ground under his feet.

There was no stone slab. The stone door had long since disappeared.

When they fell just now, the palm flame in Shi Qingxuan's hand extinguished. At this time, he reignited it and illuminated the surroundings. Only then did the two of them realize that they were actually in an earth path cave.

This cave was circular, and the walls were all soil. It did not seem like there were any traces of artificial excavation. Shi Qingxuan rubbed his forehead and said, "What is this place? Is it because I threw the wrong number that we were thrown here? "

After pondering for a moment, Xie Lian said, "It's very possible. The stone door has already disappeared, which means that we are not given a chance to go back. Let's think of a way to get out first. "

The two of them discussed for a moment before moving forward along the cave. This cave was winding. If an adult wanted to stand up straight in this cave, it would be a little difficult. They could only walk with their waist bent or crawl in the cave. Their speed was slow and it was quite tiring. Moreover, the air in this cave was humid and warm. The soil was also difficult to deal with. With every step they took, their feet would sink. Occasionally, they would even step on the corpses of some small animals and plants that were rotting in the soil. Xie Lian's expression did not change, but Shi Qingxuan had goosebumps all over his body. The more Xie Lian walked, the more he felt that something was wrong. He said, "Wind Master, I'm afraid we have to hurry up. This place … … "

Right at this moment, a series of strange rumbling noises rang out.

The loud sound was heard, and the entire cave trembled slightly. The scattered soil above was shaken until it fell to the ground. The two of them looked at each other. Without saying a word, they quickly ran in the opposite direction of the loud sound.

However, the loud sound and the tremors were rampaging. Their speed was much faster than theirs, and they kept getting closer. The two of them rolled and crawled in the winding cave, but they could not see the exit of the cave. There was not even a trace of light. Not only that, in the direction they were running, there was actually a loud sound and tremor that was similar to the one behind them!

Both the front and back paths were blocked, so the two of them could only stop. Accompanied by the rumbling sound of a heavy and huge body being dragged through the soil, two giant worms wriggled and appeared in front of the two of them.

These two giant worms were incomparably huge and bloated. Their bodies were purplish black in color, and their skin was slightly transparent. The worm's body was segmented, and they had no eyes or feet. Their two heads were just two meat tips. If they were not two extremely long earth dragons, what else could they be?

The stone door opened and actually threw them into the nest of an earth dragon monster!

Xie Lian raised his hand to block in front of him. Ruo Xie was ready to attack. Shi Qingxuan, on the other hand, took out the Wind Master Fan from somewhere. Unfortunately, he could not bring up a strong wind in this narrow underground. If he brought up a strong wind, he might even faint. Such a high-grade magic treasure would probably not be able to be of use. At this moment, Xie Lian remembered that the earth dragons were afraid of light and heat. He said, "Wind Master, please lend me some magic power to make the flame in my palm bigger!"

Shi Qingxuan followed his words. His left hand hit him, and the flame in his right hand rose a few inches. Xie Lian also quickly lit up a bright flame in his palm. Sure enough, the two Earth Dragons felt the scorching heat and shrank back, putting a distance of ten feet between them. Thus, the two of them used the power of the flame to continue to walk slowly while forcing the two earth dragons to maintain a distance from them, hoping to find an exit.

However, the cave was narrow, and with the fire burning, not only were the two earth dragons afraid of the heat, after a long time, Xie Lian and Shi Qingxuan were also sweating profusely, as if they were in an oven, and it was rather uncomfortable. Moreover, what was even more terrifying was that although Shi Qingxuan tried his best to use magic power to support the flame, the flame in his palm seemed to be getting smaller and smaller. When the two earth dragons realized this, when they retreated, they were no longer able to avoid it.

Xie Lian took a few more steps and felt that his breathing was slightly sluggish. He said, "Wind Master, I'm afraid this palm flame won't be able to last for long. Although the soil is moist and loose, it is still deep underground. Not long after, the air flow might be blocked, the fire will be extinguished, and people will also faint. "

Shi Qingxuan clenched his teeth and said, "Then I can only use a Thousand Miles Shrinking."

Although the two of them could not free their hands to draw the formation and the terrain was extremely unfavorable, there was no other way. Xie Lian said, "I'll find a flat area."

Just at this moment, he felt that he was stepping on a piece of ground that was not so wet. It seemed to be a stone slab. Xie Lian's heart moved, and he immediately bent down to check. Sure enough, it was another stone door!

This stone door also had a drawing of a small person throwing a die. Shi Qingxuan also stepped on it and was overjoyed. He said, "Quick, quick, quick, quickly throw the die to open it!" Xie Lian was about to throw it when he suddenly thought, "Don't let me throw an even more ridiculous number and open the door to an even scarier place." He handed the die to him and said, "You do it!"

Shi Qingxuan did not say anything and grabbed it and threw it. Twirl. This time, it was a 'three' and a 'four'. Xie Lian immediately put away the die, and the two of them stood on the door. The palm flame in Shi Qingxuan's hand had already become smaller, and the two earth dragons were ready to move. Xie Lian carefully stared at the drawing on the door. It gradually faded, and gradually turned into another drawing. It was a forest, and a few strangely dressed little people seemed to be dancing around a person in the middle.

At this time, an earth dragon seemed to finally be unable to hold back. Its mouth slightly opened, and dragging its heavy body, it rushed over!

Fortunately, when it was only three feet away from the two of them, the stone door suddenly opened!

This time, the two of them fell into a narrow hole. However, this time, the ground was hard, narrow, and dry. The two of them fell in pain and collided into each other. Xie Lian was used to enduring the pain and did not make a sound, but Shi Qingxuan roared. Xie Lian's ears hurt from his shouting, and he was worried that something had happened to him. He said, "Wind Master, are you okay?"

Shi Qingxuan's head was down, and his feet were up, and he said, "I don't know if I'm okay, I've never fallen like this before. Your Highness the Crown Prince, working with you is really exciting. "

Hearing this, Xie Lian could not help but laugh. Only then did he realize that the two of them had fallen into a tree hole.

He first stepped out of the hole with difficulty, and then handed his hand to Shi Qingxuan, saying, "This is really hard on you."

Shi Qingxuan said, "You're welcome."

He pulled Xie Lian's hand and crawled out of the tree hole. His face was covered in dirt, and his clothes were already tattered. When he came out, he was dazzled by the sunlight outside, and he put up a shelf to shade his eyebrows. He said, "Where is this?"

Xie Lian said, "As you can see, it's a deep mountain forest." He looked around, and then said, "I think this stone door is actually equivalent to a magic tool that specializes in casting the Shrinking Thousand Miles technique. When different points are cast, they will be sent to different places. I don't know if the points we cast just now were correct. "

Shi Qingxuan's arms were bare, and he crossed his arms, and said seriously, "Casting the Shrinking Thousand Miles technique once consumes a large amount of magic power. In order to prevent others from prying into his secrets, that Blood Rain Tanhua actually made such a stone door magic tool. It can be seen that his magic power is strong, and his scheming is deep. "

Although his expression was serious, with such a barefooted and battered appearance, he really could not be serious. On the contrary, it was funny. Xie Lian held back his laughter with difficulty, but in his heart, the expression of Hua Cheng's slightly curled lips appeared. He shook his head, and thought, "Rather than saying that he's scheming, it's better to say that … he's just mischievous."

The two of them walked out of the tree hole, and just as they walked a few steps, a group of naked people suddenly jumped out from the bushes around them. They jumped around them, and as they jumped, they shouted, "Oh oh oh oh oh!"

"… …"

The two of them were extremely shocked. Shi Qingxuan said, "What is it this time!"

Xie Lian raised his hand and said, "Don't be nervous, don't be nervous. Let's take a look first. "

He took a closer look. This group of people were not really naked, they were only wearing animal skins and leaves, looking like they ate raw meat and drank blood. They held tree branch spears in their hands, and the spearheads were pierced with sharp stones. They smiled at the two of them, and their mouths were full of sharp teeth, all of which were jagged teeth.

Without saying a word, the two of them broke into a run.

Shi Qingxuan said as he ran, "My brother used to tell me! In the deep mountains in the south, there are many savages who eat people for a living! He told me not to come to this kind of place alone! Could it be that what we're meeting now is one of them?! "

Xie Lian was already familiar with escaping, his posture and demeanor were much calmer than Shi Qingxuan's. He said calmly, "En, it's very possible! In short, let's find the door first, let's see if there are any more stone doors! "

The group of savages shouted behind them and chased relentlessly. Originally, Xie Lian and Shi Qingxuan could only escape and could not fight back. This was because the heavens had heavenly rules. If the God Priests descended to the mortal world, they were not allowed to use their magic power to suppress mortals. This rule was to prevent the God Priests from bullying others and using their power to cause trouble. However, from time to time, they would throw some sharp stones and branches at the two of them. Suddenly, a branch brushed past Shi Qingxuan's cheek.

This time, he was really unlucky. Shi Qingxuan touched his face and touched an extremely faint trace of blood. He was furious on the spot.

He snorted and stopped in his tracks. He turned around and said, "You bunch of mountain savages who have never seen the world, not only did you not submit when you saw me, the Wind Master, you actually dared to mess up my appearance!! How preposterous!!! "

After he finished shouting, he suddenly shook out the Wind Master's fan and opened it. With a whoosh, the group of savages immediately flew up from the ground and were fanned several feet away. They hung on the tree and cried out loudly. The two of them were finally able to stop and gasp for breath. While gasping for breath, Xie Lian's thought appeared again, "Being a God Priest is really hard … … Humans, ghosts, gods, no one has it easier than anyone else … …"

Shi Qingxuan spat out a breath of resentment and said to Xie Lian, "Your Highness, you saw it. They asked for it! It's not that I'm relying on the law to bully others. "

Xie Lian said, "That's right, I saw it."

Shi Qingxuan touched his face again and muttered a few words like "even my brother doesn't dare". He turned around and said, "Let's go find the stone door."

Xie Lian silently nodded. He saw Shi Qingxuan straighten his clothes and tidy his hair. He really had a natural and unrestrained appearance. Unfortunately, he was wearing a tattered purple muslin robe. This natural and unrestrained appearance was inevitably mixed with a very strange flavor. It was truly unforgettable. Xie Lian couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Thinking back to when he first met the Wind Master at Ban Yue Pass, he thought that this person was definitely an unfathomable person. If he wasn't a peerless demon, then he was an expert of a generation. Who knew that only after they became familiar with each other did he realize that this was his illusion … …

The two of them wandered aimlessly in the forest for a few rounds. Finally, they found a stone door beside another tree hole. This time, Shi Qingxuan refused to throw the dice again. He scratched his head and said, "I don't know what's going on. In the past, even if my luck wasn't good every time, it wasn't bad every time. But today, my luck seems to be bad. I've lost two dice. One was when I arrived at the Earth Dragon Cave, and the other was when I encountered the Savage Spirit. I don't know what I'll encounter next time. "

Xie Lian coughed lightly and said apologetically, "Maybe it's because I'm next to you that I brought bad luck to you."

Shi Qingxuan said, "What are you talking about! How can this Wind Master's luck be brought down by others! But it's better if you do it. Maybe that San Lang of yours still has some luck left. "

For some reason, when Xie Lian heard the words' San Lang of yours', he felt a little embarrassed. He wanted to explain something, but when he thought about it again, what was there to explain? If he had to explain, it would be weird. So he didn't say much. He picked up the dice and gently rolled it.

Two 'sixes'.

Holding his breath for a moment, Xie Lian paid attention to the changes in the pattern on the stone door so that he could be mentally prepared for what he was going to encounter next. But this time, the pattern didn't change at all. The stone door creaked open.

Behind the door, there was another pitch-black stone staircase that led deep into the ground. It was giving off cold air.

The two of them looked at each other and thought, "Could it be that after making such a big fuss, we've circled back to the same place?"

Even if they circled back to the same place, it was still better than encountering more strange dangers. They had already had enough. Thus, the two of them decisively walked down the stone steps. The stone door closed heavily behind them. When they reached out to push it, they touched a smooth stone wall.

Xie Lian said, "We can only continue walking down."

Shi Qingxuan also said, "Sigh, alright, let's take a breather for a moment and continue playing with that hateful Blood Rain Tanhua!"

Once again, the two of them walked along the square underground stone path. Unexpectedly, after walking more than two hundred steps, Xie Lian gradually became aware of something and said, "Good news, Wind Master, this isn't the first time we've walked through that tunnel. Although it looks very similar. "

Shi Qingxuan also noticed, "That's right. At that time, we encountered a stone wall after walking two hundred steps. But now, we haven't encountered it. "

Xie Lian said softly, "It seems that this time, we went the right way."

As soon as he said that, the two of them stopped at the same time.

In the darkness in front of them, there was a smell of blood.

Accompanying it was the sound of a man's heavy breathing.

The two of them didn't move and didn't say a word. There was no light or fire, but the other party had already sensed their arrival. Because after they stopped walking, a cold sentence was thrown over from the other side.

A man said in a deep voice, "No comment."
