C41 Ancient City Mural

As night fell, the cave that was still bright from the day became pitch black. The wind that was blowing outside was like a child's wail, which made people's hair stand on end.

Zhang Xiaoyu took a deep breath and stood up. During this period of time, he had consumed a lot of medicine that could help in healing and recovered about seventy to eighty percent of his injuries. The rest were broken meridians, blocked blood vessels, and other wounds that needed to be healed.

From the Essence Ring s, he took out a handful of Glowing Stone and placed it in his palm. Immediately, a crystal clear and gentle light source spread out from within, illuminating the surrounding environment.

There were indeed many mysterious places in the chaotic mountain range, but what was different from the rocky area was that this place seemed to be connected to some other place, and the rocky area was just a cave dug out by the fist faction on the spur of the moment.

After all, this world was not a unique world, and there were many things that were difficult to understand. For example, it was said that demons that liked to consume human blood essence would appear in this world from time to time, and no one knew where they came from or what kind of creatures they were.

Hss * In the darkness, a black shadow charged towards Zhang Xiaoyu's neck like a lightning bolt. The strong stench almost made Zhang Xiaoyu vomit. He held his breath and grabbed the shadow.

This was a bowl-sized venomous snake. Its multicolored scales and ugly head proved that it was extremely poisonous. The strength of the venom could be seen by how small pieces of the corroded rock were on the ground.

Zhang Xiaoyu threw the snake to the ground, then stomped on its head and continued forward.

The deeper they went, the more poisonous snakes there were. Zhang Xiaoyu wondered if this was a cave of snakes. If it was, there was no need to go any deeper, otherwise, it might be dangerous.

After thinking for a moment, Zhang Xiaoyu still decided to continue. The cave on the cliff was very well hidden, he wouldn't believe it even if he was told that there was nothing special to kill him.

Just by practicing the First Killing Black Demon Hand, he would be able to cross realms to kill the enemy. Once he reached the Grand Martial Master realm, he would be able to release his spirit energy, and at that time, he would be able to learn the Second Killing Strike of the Seven Killing Fist. Even if he had no chance of winning against Martial King at all, he would at least be able to roam about in the Grand Martial Master realm for a while.

Master Situ! It was you who gave me the basics to establish my foothold in this world. From now on, you are my master, and your disciple will definitely spread the glory of my Seven Killing Fist to the rest of the world, making your name known to them. This was the first time Zhang Xiaoyu thanked a person like this. Even if the person had already died, respect or not was useless to him, but he had to learn how to be grateful before he was born. Otherwise, he would lose his significance as a human and not be a complete human being.

Gradually, a mural appeared on both sides of the walls. On the mural, there were carvings of humans, starting from the first picture, countless people carrying stones and wooden bars, building a city; the second picture was built on top of the city, with countless warriors standing on the city walls, cheering; in the middle of the city, on top of a tall building, stood a man, just showing his smiling expression; the third picture was the beginning of a nightmare. At some point, from the nearby desert, numerous terrifying creatures appeared, rushing like a tide towards the city. The terrifying creatures were also crushed and burnt. The fifth diagram depicted a ten-meter-tall scaled creature emerging from the desert. This creature was battling the lord of the city. The destruction of the city walls and the chaotic explosion of energy had even blurred the entire sky.

This is the Thunder City. Zhang Xiaoyu felt his scalp go numb as he shouted with a hoarse voice.

The owner of the city should be Martial Master Ranker Lei Ao, a practitioner of a thunder attributed cultivation technique. Legend has it that he was able to use the lightning in the sky to attack his enemies. But what were those terrifying creatures? Of course they were not Dire Beast s, the Dire Beast could not accept someone's control and attack human cities in groups, otherwise, where would humans be able to live in this world.

In fact, Zhang Xiaoyu already had some inside information. The mural clearly told him how the Thunder City was built and how it was annihilated in the historical trend.

If it was real, then Thunder Flash Spell must be obtained. Cultivation techniques are the most basic thing that determines one's achievements, and with the help of the Thunder Flash Spell, his strength would increase by almost thirty percent, and the speed at which he advanced would undoubtedly be many times faster.

The silver greatsword was as light as nothing in Zhang Xiaoyu's hand. Because it was too fast, it formed a bunch of dazzling silver lights around him, constantly killing the dense horde of snakes. At the back, Zhang Xiaoyu already felt the struggle, even though most of the snakes were only Rank 1 Dire Beast, there were too many of them.

There was no concept of time in this dark world. No one knew how much time had passed. Zhang Xiaoyu stopped his attacks and panted heavily. The surroundings were filled with the corpses of poisonous snakes. At least a thousand snakes were killed during this period of time.

Passing through the dead body of the poisonous snake, what appeared in front of Zhang Xiaoyu was a huge stone room. This stone room was completely empty, only the surrounding walls were left with many murals and some high-level martial skills.

Frowning, Zhang Xiaoyu thought to himself, "Why is there no road? Since the mural depicts the Thunder City, then there should be a way to get there. Unless the Thunder City no longer exists, Zhang Xiaoyu refused to believe this."

After looking around carefully, Zhang Xiaoyu had no choice but to believe that they had reached the end. Maybe the Thunder Ancient City was really destroyed.

Shaking his head to clear the faint sense of loss, Zhang Xiaoyu stabbed the silver sword into the ground, preparing to heal his wounds here until they were fully healed. The poisonous snakes here could let him live for at least ten days without a problem.

It was not an easy task to reconnect the tiny broken meridians. One would need to spend several times, or even several times, effort to succeed. It was difficult to create and easy to destroy. These words were absolutely correct.

After swallowing a Great Essence Pill, Zhang Xiaoyu sat on the ground with his legs crossed. He used his soul force to channel the medicinal energy emitted by the Great Essence Pill, warming the damaged and tiny meridians over and over again. Under the effect of the medicinal energy, those invisible meridians gradually awakened from their withering and regained their vitality.

He tried his best not to waste time, and after taking seven Great Essence Pills, he finally recovered the damaged tiny meridians. As long as a few more days passed, he would be able to completely recover, and while the tiny meridians were weakened, Zhang Xiaoyu carefully opened up a lot of previously unopened meridians. Almost 50% of the meridians in his arm were opened up. Now, even if the Black Demon Hand were to forcefully resist Gongyang Ruo's sword qi, it wouldn't be a problem.

Two days later, Zhang Xiaoyu had completely recovered. All the hidden injuries on his body had been healed. Because of this serious injury, the strength of his body had increased by another level. Normal weapons probably wouldn't be able to leave any traces on him.

With misfortune and blessings accompanying each other, sometimes, accidents would always happen in one's life!
