Walking by the Abyss on Thin Ice

Chapter 147 – The first thug of the Tongtian Pavilion

Su Yun stopped his steps.

Bu Qiu Rong loudly said, "The Ashen Monster has been resurrected, and the God King who came to rescue them will continue the calamity that burned the previous world, turning Shuo Fang City into a sea of fire! Go overseas and see for yourself, there are many cities that have been burned by the calamity!"

Su Yun turned around and asked, "I am just a small spirit master in the Yu Ling realm. How can I save Shuo Fang? Gentlemen, you are all important figures. Can't you save Shuo Fang? You have the box, you control the dust sky, and you can suppress the Ashen Monster. Isn't it simple for you?"

"Only the Sect Master can control the dust sky! Without passing the Sect Master's assessment, no one can control the key!"

Bu Qiu Rong said loudly, "Only by controlling the key can you control the Sect Master's spirit weapon and suppress the Ashen City! Controlling the key is not about ability, it's about responsibility! We can't bear it."

He looked back at everyone present and said, "Brother Ya Ba is building towers and tombs, and Emperor Ai kept him and had him build many new cities for Yuan Shao. Second Brother studies astronomy and geography. Others say he started out as a feng shui master, but his knowledge of astronomy and geography is unparalleled in the world! Third Brother..."

A man in a bamboo hat stepped forward and said in a low voice, "I make weapons. The best spirit weapons in Yuan Shao were made by me. My line once made ships that crossed the sea and conquered overseas for the emperor! Fourth Brother, what do you do?"

A woman in a cloak stepped forward and said softly, "I design runes. The great holy spirit weapons of the past saints were often designed by my line. Fifth Brother..."

Another young man stepped forward, and his voice trembled as he spoke, "I, I am..."

Bu Qiu Rong spoke for him, "Fifth Brother hasn't spoken in more than ten years. He is not good at communicating with others. His line is responsible for refining materials. The materials used in the dust sky were discovered by his line."

Then, another woman in a black veil stepped forward and said, "My line is responsible for water conservancy and transportation, and we are from the Li Lu Hai line of the ancient saints. Most of the water conservancy and transportation in Yuan Shao were made by our line."

Another person stepped forward and said in a deep voice, "My line is in medicine, researching others, and occasionally providing research for others."

Su Yun's heart skipped a beat as he looked deeply at the well-proportioned man, "Doctor Dong? He's Doctor Dong! Even though his appearance has changed, his voice is unmistakable!"

"My line is in physics, studying matter."

"My line is in celestial phenomena and meteorology. Some say we are sorcerers who can summon wind and rain.""We are responsible for studying the mysteries of spiritual beings and communicating with and summoning spirits from other worlds."

"My sect is responsible for archaeology and searching for ancient relics underground..."

...

One by one, the strange individuals stepped forward and reported their sects.

After they had all reported their sects, Bu Qiu Rong stepped forward and said, "My sect is responsible for the expenses of the Tong Tian Pavilion, which means we make the money. My sect manages the wealth of the Tong Tian Pavilion. Without money, the Tong Tian Pavilion would not be able to exist. Besides us, there are other branches of the Tong Tian Pavilion, but they are too far away to come."

The mute senior brother gestured with his hands in front of his chest, and Bu Qiu Rong said, "Senior brother means that there are also branches of the Tong Tian Pavilion overseas. In recent years, Yuan Shuo has declined, and the overseas branches of the Tong Tian Pavilion want to establish a second pavilion and select a pavilion master from among foreigners. If that happens, the Tong Tian Pavilion's thousands of years of heritage will be lost. Even the entire Tong Tian Pavilion will become a weapon for foreign invasion of Yuan Shuo!"

The mute senior brother nodded repeatedly.

Bu Qiu Rong picked up the wooden box and said solemnly, "Pavilion master, you should have realized that although we each have our strengths, we are not specialized in cultivating combat techniques. And because we are too focused on cultivation, we are blank in other areas. We can solve the world's most difficult mysteries and break the most difficult seals, but we need someone to guide us in the right direction."

He held the wooden box and bowed, saying, "When it comes to real life and death battles, we really can't do it. When faced with imperial oppression, we also can't do it. Therefore, the pavilion master of the Tong Tian Pavilion must be the strongest and most intelligent among us, the one who can give us direction, withstand the pressure of power, and protect us while we conduct research. The pavilion master of the Tong Tian Pavilion is not a lofty position, but rather the person who protects us..."

In front of the wall transformed by the dust curtain sky, everyone fell silent.

They were indeed powerful people, but they were also the ones who needed the most protection. The imperial power could cut off the mute senior brother's tongue and kill most of the Lou Ban sect, and conflict could make Dong Yi Shi change his appearance and not dare to show his true face.

Su Yun also saw several people who were obviously disabled and others with words carved into their faces.

.

After Lou Ban died, it was obvious that everyone in the Tong Tian Pavilion was having a hard time.

Su Yun hesitated for a moment and walked towards Bu Qiu Rong. Ying Ying reminded him on his shoulder, "Su scholar, there is no benefit in this! Holding the key only means responsibility! You help them fight, solve problems, deal with troubles, and build the Tong Tian Pavilion for them!"

At this moment, a voice said, "Senior Ying, you are also from our spiritual being sect."

Ying Ying was stunned and stopped speaking.Su Yun took the wooden box and smiled, "I promised Left Minister that I will not let down the people of Shuo Fang. If I cannot become the envoy sent by the emperor, then I need to have the ability to protect the people of Shuo Fang."

He held the wooden box and smiled, "Bu Qiu Rong, if you have a better candidate, let him come here and take the key."

The dumb senior brother smiled and walked up to Su Yun, holding his hand and bringing him to the wall formed by the dust and sky, imprinting Su Yun's hand and the wooden box on the wall.

The wooden box was embedded in the wall, Su Yun's palm covering the wall, and the dumb senior brother supported Su Yun's spiritual energy with immense vitality, causing the wall to ripple like waves!

Su Yun immediately felt his spiritual senses extend outward at an incredible speed. The spiritual energy was a person's spiritual gathering, and his spiritual senses spread along the underground of Shuo Fang City, spreading in all directions!

He sensed that his spirit was connected to thick copper pillars, flowing upward along the pillars through the underground pipelines.

That should be the foundation of Shuo Fang City!

Then all the instruments in his spiritual world sounded at the same time, intersecting and resonating. His spirit rose through each building, passed through each bridge, and flowed through each road!

The entire Shuo Fang City suddenly resonated and came to life with his spiritual energy. This feeling was truly wonderful!

Shuo Fang City seemed to have life, with the possibility of change. He even felt that the entire Shuo Fang City was a part of his body!

"The key is to open all the spirit weapons of the pavilion masters. Therefore, the next pavilion master must obtain the recognition of all the pavilion masters."

Bu Qiu Rong bowed, "Pavilion Master, there is no substitute."

He stepped back, and the others also stepped back, quickly disappearing into the darkness.

Su Yun felt his spirit becoming broader and broader. As a huge spiritual weapon, Shuo Fang City became more and more detailed in his "vision," more and more subtle.

The dumb senior brother, with his powerful blood, led him to become familiar with the huge spiritual weapon of Shuo Fang City, imprinting his spirit in every rune and symbol of the city!

He could see the intricate structure of Shuo Fang City. His spiritual energy could merge into the smallest runes hidden in the city's buildings, unleashing the hidden powers within them.

He could also control every street lamp and the brightness of the street lamps.

If his spiritual energy and vitality were strong enough, he even felt that he could control the movement of the suspension bridge and the shape of the tall buildings!Su Yun's spiritual energy spread wider and wider. Suddenly, he paused, and his spiritual energy came to the edge of Shuofang City, where he "saw" a lamp post stuck on a railing of a bridge.

Under the bridge hung a statue of a dragon.

"That horse..."

Before he could take a closer look, Senior Brother Dumb suddenly withdrew his power, and Su Yun's spiritual energy quickly receded, the feeling of controlling Shuofang City dissipated.

Senior Brother Dumb grinned, holding up a wooden sign that read "See you another day."

Su Yun was about to speak, but Senior Brother Dumb turned and disappeared into the darkness.

The book monster Ying Ying sat on his shoulder, her chin resting on her hand, her face full of sadness and depression.

Su Yun regained his composure and asked, but Ying Ying remained silent, with a "worry" character floating above her forehead.

Su Yun knew she was thinking about the scholar Ying, and thought to himself, "Ying Ying said that Ying is also a person from the Tongtian Tower. He is probably afraid of his past life... Strange, what is that dragon horse?"

With a thought, he stepped away from the underground Jiuhui Mountain. Stairs appeared step by step under his feet, and Su Yun ascended quickly, soon arriving at the top of the mountain.

The small wooden building was still on the mountaintop. Su Yun walked into the second floor of the small building, activated his blood and suddenly the small wooden building shook its wings. The wooden and iron wings flapped hard, and the wooden building rose up and flew upward.

Ying Ying still didn't want to talk, sitting opposite Su Yun, looking out the window, with a "handsome" character floating above her forehead.

Su Yun laughed heartily.

Below, the miners who were mining the Jiuhui City shuddered when they heard laughter coming from the dark sky, unable to stop shivering.

The small wooden building flew higher and higher, reaching the underground sky. Su Yun's spiritual energy stood in the spirit world, waving his hand, and the magnificent buildings in the underground of Shuofang City automatically opened up.

The wooden building flew with flapping wings, entering a building.

Inside the building, each room was like a module, quietly moving and reorganizing, with carved beams and painted rafters, rapidly changing.

The people inside the building could hardly perceive the changes, and when the small wooden building flew out of the building, everything returned to normal.

As the sun set, Li Zhuxian, the young girl Wu Tong, and Bai Yuelou walked in the lower levels of Shuofang City, heading towards the Wen Chang Academy. The big bird Tianfeng followed behind them, constantly turning back to look at its back, feeling uncomfortable without the small building on it.

"Senior Brother was taken away like this. Shouldn't we choose another Senior Brother?" Bai Yuelou's eyes flickered, smiling.

Wu Tong chuckled, "You still want to be Senior Brother? Among the five of us, you are probably the bottom one. Even Zhuxian could kill you."Suddenly, the big bird Tianfeng happily called out twice, took a step forward, and ran out from above the heads of the people, rushing through the streets and causing chaos by colliding with passing carriages.

"My bird!"

Li Zhuxian hurriedly chased after it, angrily shouting, "Stupid bird, come back quickly!"

At this moment, everyone looked straight ahead and saw that in the direction where Tianfeng was running, a small wooden building grew a pair of wings and was flapping its wings to fly in the sky.

The small building looked like a huge wooden eagle, flying lower and lower until it was about to land. Tianfeng quickly ran underneath it and the wooden building landed on its back.

Tianfeng breathed a long sigh of relief, looking satisfied.

Suddenly, the wings of the wooden building made a loud noise, and the wooden iron bearings and gears flew out, rushing into the street, startling people and quickly disappearing.

On the small wooden building, Su Yun pushed open the window and smiled at the few people who were chasing after him, "Do you want a ride?"

Finally, the sun set, and the street lamps in Shuofang City were lit one by one. In a corner of the city, a deserted stone bridge held a lamp post, which was tied with a rein, and under the rein was a stone carving of a dragon.

When the sun set, the stone carving suddenly came to life. The dragon claws scratched and the horse tail swept, trying to run in the air, but after struggling for a while, it couldn't break free.

After a long time, the dragon horse stopped struggling and resigned itself to hanging there.

A night passed, and the sun was about to rise. The dragon carving showed a look of horror, struggling hard, but still couldn't break free.

The first ray of sunlight shone down, illuminating the bottom of the bridge, and only a frightened stone carving of a dragon was seen hanging from a rein, with its teeth bared and claws flailing, motionless.
