The lame Taoist was curious when he saw the method of cutting open the abdomen and carving out the heart. He looked at Song Chuyuan and asked, "Fellow Taoist Song, is this the Corpse Cult's secret technique?"
Song Yuanchu was also confused and shook his head. "Yang Fengxiao doesn't have this ability. The Corpse Cult doesn't have this kind of technique."
Zhang Boyan scoffed. "He's a cultivator of the Qi Path. There must be a limit to what he can do. I don't believe that he can use it in a fight, so there's no need to pay too much attention to it."
When Tang and Song heard this, they both nodded in agreement. This evaluation could be said to have hit the nail on the head. Only cultivators who specialized in strength could have an unbreakable body. For Yang Fengxiao to be able to do this, he could only have used some extraordinary methods.
After Yang Fengxiao sat in the upper hall, he looked left and right, extremely pleased with himself. At this moment, he rolled his eyes and pointed to the bottom of the stairs and said, "Sect Leader Qiao, my Junior Martial Brother Gu's ability is also not bad, he is also qualified to sit here."
The moment he said this, the elders of Zhong Tai were displeased.
Although Yang Fengxiao wasn't famous back then, there were still people who recognized him and knew his background. In their eyes, he was just a remnant of the Evil Faction. It was already an honor for the sect leader to be on the same level as them, but he actually wanted another cultivator of the Evil Faction to sit on the same level. He was asking for a foot after being given an inch.
Sect Leader Qiao was still smiling. "What ability does Fellow Taoist Gu have? Can we have a look?"
Yang Fengxiao chuckled and walked to the front of the stairs. He shouted down, "Junior Brother, tell us about your ability."
Gu Hongtang stood up with a proud expression. He said, "Sect Leader Qiao, I have a small technique that can revive the dead and regrow flesh and bones."
His words were shocking. Just Now, when Yang Fengxiao spoke, some people might have been moved, but now everyone was in disbelief.
Mortals. Once their vitality was exhausted, their souls would dissipate in a few days if there was no special reason. As for their bodies, there was no need to mention it. Even an ascended expert might not be able to do what he said.
Sect Leader Qiao could tell that Gu Hongtang was deliberately trying to shock them, but it didn't contradict his original intention.
Zhong Tai was defeated twice, and many cultivators died in battle. Currently, there were very few people suppressing the various immortal cities. He had already sent out all the elders of Hope Voice Mountain, causing the mountain gate to be empty. This situation would definitely not last long, hence, this banquet. He also had the intention of selecting suitable talents. Those who had strange skills but were not good at fighting were exactly the kind of people he wanted to recruit.
Gu Hongtang saw the doubt in the crowd and said, "If you don't believe me, I can give it a try."
Someone below said, "Where can we find a dead man for you here?"
Before Gu Hongtang could say anything, a man with a green scarf wrapped around his head stood up from the seats in the upper hall. A cultivator with a treasured sword at his waist said, "What's so difficult about this? I'll do it. Just find him. "
He looked down at Gu Hongtang's face and said lightly, "I just don't know if Fellow Cultivator Gu is willing."
Gu Hongtang cupped his hands and said, "So it's Elder Zhongtai Bai. Elder, you are a person of virtue and prestige. I'm sure there won't be any gossip after this, I'm willing. "
Elder Bai Daoren agreed. He pinched his fingers and made a hand sign, then he sent out a ray of spiritual light.
After a while, a ray of red light flew in from outside the Golden Bell Platform. It flew straight into the hall and stopped on the table.
Elder Bai waved his sleeve and the red light dispersed. A seven or eight year old child with a ponytail appeared. His eyes were tightly shut, his face was pale, and he had no breath. It was obvious that he had been dead for many days.
According to Gu Hongtang's words, he should have found a skeleton. However, today was the Xuan Banquet, finding bones or a bloody corpse would spoil the mood. Hence, he found a child's corpse that Just Now had died not long ago in Da Yang City.
Gu Hongtang glanced at it and was certain in his heart. He dared to say such big words because he was prepared. If the other party found a skeleton, he would use a camouflage technique that he had learned to make sure that no one here would be able to see through it.
If it was a corpse, he had thousands of specially refined human souls in his sleeves. From the old to the young, from the male to the female, they had all kinds of personalities. That would make it even more convenient.
Right now, he could just go up and perform the technique. However, before he came out, Yang Fengxiao had specifically told him that if it was too easy, then it wouldn't be worth it, and it wouldn't be easy to win people's trust. Hence, he had to act mysterious first.
Therefore, he first apologized and slowly took out a few instruments. He laid them out on the table, then chanted incantations and burned incense. After a while, when everyone was getting impatient, he walked up and slapped the child's forehead, saying, "Wake up!"
The child's body trembled. After a while, he slowly opened his eyes, revealing a blank look. He then sat up, rubbed his eyes, and looked around curiously with a pair of black eyes.
He was a mortal, so he could only see a hazy scene on the Golden Bell Platform. He couldn't see more than a hundred feet away, so he got bored after a while. Suddenly, he saw that there were many fruits and vegetables on the table next to him, and he felt hungry. He swallowed his saliva, grabbed them, and held them in his two small hands, eating happily.
Gu Hongtang smiled and said, "It's done."
Elder Bai's eyes flashed, and he shouted, "Wait."
He retracted his spiritual vigor and walked to the child's side. He tried to speak gently, and asked, "Child, why are you eating and drinking here? Let me ask you, what's your name, and what's your parents' names?"
As he said this, he glanced at Gu Hongtang with a sharp gaze.
He was the one who found the child, so he naturally knew where he came from. After asking, if it was wrong, it could prove that it was the Soul Returning Technique of Borrowing a Corpse. It was a fake, and not a real resurrection. Even without the permission of the headmaster, he could still chase the child out.
However, Gu Hongtang chuckled and brought a wine pot over. He poured himself a cup of wine, tilted his head back, and drank it down without the slightest hint of panic.
The child was obviously not from an ordinary family. When he heard an elder's question, he quickly put down the food in his hand, and replied with a childish voice, "Uncle, my surname is An, my father is An Jingzhi, and my mother is An Lin. I don't know why I'm here."
Elder Bai was startled, and he frowned, and thought, "Strange, this actually matches. Could it be that this person really has a supernatural power that can reverse life and death? "
He then asked a few more questions, and they were exactly the same as what he knew. It was obvious that it was the original spirit.
Gu Hongtang said proudly, "Elder Bai, what do you think? Does my technique impress you?"
Elder Bai looked at him deeply, and slowly nodded, "You are indeed very capable."
He still did not believe that the child could really resurrect the soul, but to be able to make him unable to find any flaws in it, it must be an impressive technique.
Not only did he not believe it, but there were not many people present who were easy to fool. They all whispered to each other, trying to guess the secret behind it.
Headmaster Qiao smiled, "Fellow Gu, you can come up and take a seat."
Gu Hongtang's face lit up, and he bowed, then went up to the stage. After bowing again, he sat down excitedly.
With Yang Fengxiao and Gu Hongtang as precedents, many of the cultivators in the hall were also tempted, and wanted to show off their skills.
At this moment, everyone suddenly felt something, and looked up, only to see a fiery meteor dragging a long tail. It was flying over from the sky, and it was extremely bright, and it was flying towards them.
The elders on the stage saw this light. They all had different expressions, some were stupefied, some were happy, and some were frowning.
Moments later. This fiery meteor flew close, but it did not retract its momentum. With a rumble, it heavily smashed onto the golden stage, causing the entire stage to tremble.
After a short while, the fire dissipated, and a tall and strong young cultivator appeared. This person's face was like powder, and he wore a crown on his head. His back was wide, and he walked with a majestic gait. As he looked around, he gave off a disdainful aura.
A glint appeared in Zhang Yan's eyes. With one look, he could tell that although there were no clouds above this person's head, his body was firm, and his aura was vigorous. His breathing carried the sound of thunder, and it was obvious that he walked the path of strength. Moreover, his cultivation was extremely high, and it was comparable to the third grade of Qi Path Yuanying. He thought for a moment and asked, "Do you know who this is?"
Song Chuyuan shook his head and said that he did not know.
The lame Taoist also frowned and did not speak.
On the stage, Headmaster Qiao was extremely happy to see this person, and he smiled, "Xun 'er is late."
The young cultivator cupped his fists and said, "I was sleepy and woke up late, please forgive me, father."
Headmaster Qiao laughed and waved his sleeve, "It's fine, it's fine."
The lame Taoist's mind flashed, and he said softly, "I remember now, this person's name is Du Shixun, and he is Headmaster Qiao's stepson. I heard that he was sent to another sect to cultivate since he was young, and I didn't expect him to come back now."
Du Shixun looked at everyone present, and he pointed at Yang Fengxiao and Gu Hongtang, saying, "Father, where did these two come from?"
As a stepson, it was very rude to ask directly. However, Headmaster Qiao did not mind, and he told him about their origins.
When Du Shixun heard that, he sneered, "Decapitate the head, torture the heart, and revive from the dead?"
He cupped his fists at Headmaster Qiao, and said, "Since you have such abilities, father, can you allow me to try?"
Headmaster Qiao seemed to dote on him, and he immediately nodded and said, "Go ahead and try."
Du Shixun walked in front of Yang Fengxiao, and for some reason, he stared at him. The latter felt a sense of fear, but he forced himself to calm down and said, "How does Young Headmaster want to try?"
A sneer appeared on Du Shixun's face, and he said, "I want to borrow your head."
After saying that, he reached out and grabbed Yang Fengxiao's head, and he squeezed it hard. With a crack, the head exploded, and he gently lifted Yang Fengxiao's body up. His other hand climbed up, and he grabbed Yang Fengxiao's ankle. With a split of his arms, he tore Yang Fengxiao's body into two.
Just Now, when Yang Fengxiao was casting his spell, there was no blood at all, but now, blood was spurting out like a fountain, and there was no more movement.
Du Shixun laughed coldly, and threw the broken body on the ground, and he said in disdain, "It's just a small trick of hiding a corpse in a corpse, hiding a worm in a brain, how can you trick me?"
He was taught by a strange person, and his eyes were refined, and he could see the reality of spiritual vigor. With one look, he could see that Yang Fengxiao was hiding his spirit in the body of a worm, and then living in the brain. His body had long been refined into a corpse tool, and Just Now, he could do that. Now that his head was crushed by him, his life was gone, and he could not be more dead.
He turned around, and his eyes were bursting with divine light, and he stared at Gu Hongtang, and said, "Don't you have the Life and Death Technique, Flesh and Bones Technique? Come, bring him back to life for me to see. "
Gu Hongtang was afraid of this person's power, and he could only watch as his Senior Brother died a violent death, but he did not dare to stop it. Not only that, under the huge pressure, he was so scared that his whole body was trembling, and his lips were trembling, and he could not speak.
Du Shixun showed a hint of disdain, and he sneered, "You are not worthy to be my honored guest, get out!"
He kicked out, and it hit Gu Hongtang's chest. The strength of a cultivator of the path of strength was great, and Gu Hongtang's sternum was immediately crushed. He screamed, and his body flew up from the upper hall, and with a bang, he fell below the golden bell platform. He twitched a few times, and then stopped moving.
