Chapter 1523 The Untamed 3
Jiang Cheng tried his best to stop Wei Ying from falling, so he asked Lan Zhan with a bitter face, "Lan Zhan, is there anything under this cold pond? Ah Xian is about to fall in!"
At first, Lan Zhan thought it was another prank by Jiang Cheng and Wei Ying, but suddenly Jiang Cheng grabbed his arm. He felt a pulling force and everything went black in front of his eyes.
Jiang Cheng didn't have the habit of being a scapegoat for others. Even when he didn't find any support when he was falling, he didn't give up. Instead, he urgently summoned the Three Poisons and stabbed them into the stone wall, hanging himself and Wei Ying on the stone wall together.
As for Lan Zhan, he didn't react in time and was let go by Jiang Cheng early, so he fell down directly.
Wei Ying looked down hard and saw that Lan Zhan was not injured, so he quickly called out, "Lan Zhan, please move to the side. Ah Cheng and I are coming down!"
Lan Zhan looked up at Jiang Cheng holding the three poisons stuck in the stone wall with one hand and holding Wei Ying tightly with the other hand, and then saw himself falling down, feeling somewhat aggrieved.
But he also knew that now was not the time to consider these details, so he stepped aside, and Wei Ying and Jiang Cheng jumped down one after another.
In just a short while, ice had formed on Lan Zhan's eyebrows. Jiang Cheng was still shirtless, so he didn't care about anything else and directly took out clothes from the storage bag and put them on. However, the continuous cold here still penetrated his bones.
Seeing Jiang Cheng shudder, Wei Ying couldn't help but complain, "Lan Zhan, is there any place in the mountain behind your house that you don't know about?"
Lan Zhan felt that it was all his fault today, and he took the lead and walked in front to try to protect Jiang Cheng and Wei Ying. After hearing this, he felt a little guilty, "I never knew there was such a place below the cold spring."
Jiang Cheng felt very cold and didn't even want to talk. Wei Ying supported him and looked at the cave full of stalactites. Not much light could come in, and the cold wind made him uncomfortable. He could only urge him: "Then choose the road with the strongest cold wind. Maybe you can find out what's going on when you reach the end."
The three of them didn't know how long they walked in this underground space that seemed to be connected in all directions. There were too many forks in the road, so they had to stop every few steps to feel the cold wind. They didn't know how long they had walked before they finally came to a stone chamber without ice, shivering.
Although this stone chamber clearly showed signs of artificial carving, and there was even a stone table in front with a very valuable ancient zither on it, what no one expected was that not only was there more light coming in from somewhere, but there was also a group of little rabbits with headbands running around.
Wei Ying was about to step forward, but just as he took a step, an illusion suddenly appeared before his eyes and he heard shouting sounds in his ears.
It wasn't just Wei Ying who saw these visions and heard these voices, Jiang Cheng and Lan Zhan did the same.
After listening for a long time, it was revealed that these illusions and sounds showed the events of five hundred years ago when hundreds of immortal families jointly fought against the evil Xue Chonghai. Lan Zhan saw the ancestors of the Lan family, and Jiang Cheng and Wei Ying naturally saw the ancestors of the Jiang family as well. In addition, there was the Jin family's golden star snow wave peony flag, the Nie family's ferocious beast flag, and of course the Wen family's sun flag.
However, five hundred years seem to have changed a lot of things. Many of those distinctive flag patterns can no longer be seen today.
As the illusion ended, something seemed to fall on the stone platform, making a muffled sound. Jiang Cheng and Wei Ying took another step forward, but the guqin suddenly attacked, using the Lan family's unique string killing technique.
To put it bluntly, this String Killing Technique is just a more powerful sound attack technique. Jiang Cheng still had the Three Poisons in his hand, and he easily resolved the first wave of attacks and protected Wei Ying. But then the attacks came one after another towards Wei Ying. Only then did they realize that this String Killing Technique did not attack Lan Zhan at all and even recognized people!
Wei Ying quickly called out to Lan Zhan, “Lan Zhan, please lend us your headband!”
Lan Zhan hesitated for a moment, and Jiang Cheng found the time to say, "Hurry up, I can break this string killing technique, but once the technique is used, the senior who cast the technique will not be able to be saved!"
Lan Zhan didn't dare to delay any longer. He took off his headband and cast a spell to wrap around Jiang Cheng and Wei Ying's wrists. The String Killing Technique really stopped attacking and fell silent.
When they approached the stone platform, a senior from the Lan family who was dressed similarly to Lan Zhan suddenly appeared behind the stone table. She was a beautiful woman. She looked at the three people who came in and couldn't help but feel relieved. "It's really gratifying that the Lan and Jiang families can now have talented juniors like you."
The three of them greeted each other and addressed each other as seniors, but Wei Ying wanted to ask one more question: "Are you the Blue Winged Sect Master of the Lan Clan who is said to have created the String Killing Technique?"
Lan Yi smiled and nodded, seeming quite satisfied with the coming of his own descendants and Jiang's descendants today.
Jiang Cheng could see that this Blue Wing senior's spiritual awareness was too weak and might soon dissipate, so he quickly asked, "Senior, why are you here? Why did you call us here?"
Wei Ying also reacted and said, "Yes, I heard that you suddenly disappeared, but I didn't expect that you were in the barrier below your own cold pond."
Lan Zhan also expressed his concern for Lan Yi's funeral. "Since you suddenly disappeared and your body could not be found, the Lan family can only build a tomb for you."
Lan Yi was forbidden to show a bitter smile, "Back then, when I was friends with Baoshan, I defeated my peers at a young age and became the only female leader among the hundreds of immortal sects. I also created a very powerful attack method, the string killing technique. Naturally, I was too proud and complacent, thinking that I could solve the harm of Yin Iron and save all living beings with my own strength-"
Wei Ying said in surprise: "So you, Senior, know my master, Bao Shan San Ren!"
When Lan Yi heard Wei Ying claim to be the disciple of Baoshan Sanren, he immediately looked at him a few more times. Seeing that he had a handsome face, a high level of cultivation, and was lively and polite, he couldn't help but praise him, "Baoshan is indeed blessed. Even his disciple is so outstanding, but I didn't leave any successors..."
Jiang Cheng forced the topic back, "Senior, you just mentioned Yin Iron, but is it something that Xue Chonghai used to unify the world five hundred years ago?"
Lan Yi nodded, "Yes. This Yin Iron is said to come from outer space. Xue Chonghai used it to absorb the spiritual awareness and cultivation of many cultivators, and raised his own cultivation to the point where he was invincible. If the hundreds of immortal sects had not united as one and wiped out all of Xue Chonghai's forces, and if the masters at that time had not besieged him, I'm afraid Xue Chonghai would have been able to fulfill his ambition."
Just by hearing what Lan Yi said, everyone could imagine how difficult it was for the Hundred Immortal Sects to win against Xue Chonghai back then.
Lan Yi continued, "Back then, the hundreds of immortal sects were worried that someone would use Yin Iron to cause chaos in the future, so they simply proposed to destroy Yin Iron. However, they didn't expect Yin Iron to be so difficult to deal with. Even if it was broken into pieces, it was still powerful. So everyone could only scatter the fragments of Yin Iron to suppress it."
"I was young and full of energy back then, and I thought there was nothing I couldn't do. But I have destroyed my body and my spiritual consciousness, and now I can no longer suppress the Yin Iron..."
