Walking by the Abyss on Thin Ice

Chapter 174: Whether Shuǒfāng is chaotic or not, Lǎozǐ has the final say

Chi Xiaoyao transformed into a Chilong and ran at an extremely fast speed, allowing Su Yun to fully grasp the wooden box with all his heart and soul.

The wooden box became extremely peculiar in his hand, like sand and dust. The sand and dust were countless tiny cubes that controlled the key to Shuofang City.

The wooden box constantly changed in his palm. Su Yun needed to perceive the internal structure of a tall building with dozens or even hundreds of floors through the wooden box in the shortest time possible!

This required him to concentrate his mind to the highest degree, so that his spirit could connect with a towering building in an instant.

Only by doing this could he control the shape changes of these buildings by controlling the box!

The buildings in Shuofang City were divided into clusters of buildings. Su Yun sealed off one tall building after another, while Chi Xiaoyao carried him up at a fast pace.

Suddenly, the Chilong leaped and Su Yun rose into the air, landing on a cloud bridge in front of a tall building.

The Chilong's body spun in the air and transformed into the figure of a white-robed girl, Chi Xiaoyao, who landed next to Su Yun. Her white dress and ribbon fluttered in the wind.

Chi Xiaoyao stabilized her figure and looked around. The cloud bridge was in chaos, with carriages and vehicles rushing wildly, trying to escape for their lives, causing the bridge to be congested.

In the sky, monsters similar to disaster ash creatures kept swooping down, grabbing and throwing carriages and vehicles off the bridge.

"They haven't eaten anyone. They don't seem like real disaster ash creatures," Chi Xiaoyao said in surprise.

The wooden box in Su Yun's hand had turned to dust and smoke, and the smoke quickly formed more than a dozen cloud bridges, controlling all the cloud bridges in this cluster of buildings. Su Yun said in a low voice, "Naturally, they are not real disaster ash creatures. They only took the power of disaster ash, and were assimilated into the form of disaster ash creatures."

Chi Xiaoyao's heart skipped a beat. "They are human!"

There were also many spiritualists trapped in the carriages on the cloud bridge, each using their own magical powers to fight against the disaster ash creatures, but they were often killed by the creatures in one or two moves, and their bodies fell from the sky.

Su Yun urged the wooden box, and the thunderous vibrations continued. The cloud bridges split and reassembled in the air, carrying the carriages to avoid the attacks of the disaster ash creatures!

The cloud bridges shuttled through the air like dragons, suddenly cracking open in the center of each tall building, and the cloud bridges moved horizontally in the sky, passing through those buildings.

The cloud bridges led to different buildings, and the carriages on the bridges rushed into those buildings.

Su Yun and Chi Xiaoyao stood in the center of these cloud bridges.

In the sky, the disaster ash creatures flapped their wings and chased after them, rushing into those buildings one after another.As soon as these disaster gray monsters entered the building, the internal space of the building changed wildly. The carriages disappeared quickly in front of them, replaced by walls that were constantly squeezing in from all sides!

Chi Xiaoyao immediately heard the screams of misery coming from the surrounding buildings, followed by black blood being squeezed out of the cracks in the walls.

"It's this kid causing trouble!"

Suddenly, a disaster gray monster in the sky discovered Su Yun and made a piercing scream, flapping its wings and flying towards him.

Su Yun raised his left hand and pointed his right hand at the dust cloud bridge floating in his palm. With a sudden flick, the thick steel bars in the bridge rotated and flew out!

The surface of the steel bars shimmered with runes, and suddenly they cracked open like dozens of big snakes dancing in the air, trapping the disaster gray monster!

The body of the disaster gray monster was strong, and the steel bars could not pierce it. Other disaster gray monsters also flew over and discovered the two of them.

"Sister!"

Su Yun shouted, and Chi Xiaoyao's head flashed with light, revealing a divine bow, which was her magical power.

Chi Xiaoyao bent her bow and shot an arrow. A sword light pierced through the left eye of the disaster gray monster, and its head exploded.

"The weak point of the disaster gray monster's bone armor is its eyes."

Chi Xiaoyao leaped up and grabbed the divine bow in her hand. She landed on the bridge and raced along the cloud bridge, constantly bending her bow and shooting arrows at the disaster gray monsters in the air.

Her archery magical power was extremely rare. When she activated her martial arts, a huge chi dragon would appear behind her to help her pull the divine bow. The power of each arrow was extremely terrifying!

"I trained her well, didn't I?" The book monster Ying Ying ran out of Su Yun's spirit world, slid down the clock wall, and jumped onto Su Yun's shoulder, looking proud.

Su Yun stood motionless on the bridge, and suddenly the bridge collapsed with a loud rumble, rising higher and higher. The cloud bridge, under his control, raced towards another group of buildings in the distance.

In the air, disaster gray monsters flew towards him, but cloud bridges on both sides of Su Yun also flew towards him.

The speed of those bridges suddenly surpassed the cloud bridge under Su Yun's feet. Then, steel bars that had been refined in the smelting and refining factories flew out like venomous dragons and giant pythons from the cloud bridge!

The steel bars criss-crossed and the runes on their surface kept shining. Their power burst out, locking up the disaster gray monsters in the air.

Chi Xiaoyao's white skirt fluttered as she jumped between the bridges, even sliding on the steel bars dancing in the air, killing the trapped disaster gray monsters with her accurate arrow light.Su Yun stood still on the bridge, while Chi Xiaoyao was extremely agile.

Ying Ying sat on Su Yun's shoulder and pulled out a book from somewhere. She recorded the weaknesses of the disaster ash monster and drew the appearance of a person transforming into the disaster ash monster, saying, "It would be great if we could get closer and fight it..."

Suddenly, a steel bar rolled up a disaster ash monster that Chi Xiaoyao had shot dead and sent it in front of her.

Ying Ying quickly drew the shape of the humanoid disaster ash monster and said, "Turn sideways!"

The steel bar turned the disaster ash monster sideways, and Ying Ying recorded the sideway form, then said, "Backside!"

Su Yun still had some strength left and naturally did his best to satisfy her.

After Ying Ying finished drawing the disaster ash monster's form, she said, "This is a male one, I still need a female one."

Just then, suddenly, several steel bars and cables broke, and Su Yun was surprised to see a huge disaster ash monster, like a cloud covering the sky, flying towards them. Wherever it passed, no steel bars or cables could stop it, and they all broke with a wave of its hand!

Chi Xiaoyao bent her bow and shot an arrow, but it bounced off when it hit the disaster ash monster's eye!

"Could it be a real disaster ash monster?"

Chi Xiaoyao was shocked, and suddenly saw four or five cloud bridges rushing out from behind, rolling towards the big disaster ash monster!

"Bang!"

The cloud bridges exploded one after another, and the big disaster ash monster used its divine ability, which turned out to be the Zhou family's seal method. In just a few moves, it broke the cloud bridges!

"The Zhou family's Tianxiang realm expert has also turned into a disaster ash monster!" Chi Xiaoyao was shocked.

The big disaster ash monster transformed by the Zhou family's expert flew towards them, and with a wave of its hand, a wall suddenly appeared in front of Su Yun, four square and ten feet high and wide, with complex and profound bird and insect seal characters engraved on it!

This was the Zhou family's seal method, which was famous for its divine ability!

Just as this seal was about to crush Su Yun and Chi Xiaoyao, suddenly a Buddha's light shone behind Su Yun, and a large hand emitting inch by inch of light met the disaster ash monster's seal!

Su Yun quickly turned around and saw Master Tu Ming walking towards them, wearing a kasaya and a string of beads on his chest, and a luminous Buddha sitting on a lotus platform behind him!

Countless Sanskrit sounds hummed and turned into Sanskrit characters, revolving around the Buddha's head.

"Su scholar, you go and quell the disaster ash monster's rebellion, I'll stay here." Master Tu Ming smiled and looked up at the big disaster ash monster, saying, "Zhou Longyun, the second in command of the Zhou family, you are also a prominent figure in Shuofang, but I didn't expect you to become like this because of power and ambition. Today, I will accumulate virtue again!"

The disaster ash monster laughed, "Tu Ming, what about you? You should be a famous master in the martial arts world, why hide in Shuofang with an assumed name?"With a thought, Su Yun urged the wooden box and the sand and dust that the box transformed into formed a bridge, disturbing the cloud bridge under his feet, causing it to change course and go around the other side!

The great calamity grey monster snorted coldly, a treasure seal floating above its head, ready to strike Su Yun with a fatal blow. But Tu Ming stepped forward and unleashed his divine abilities!

The cloud bridge passed by the two of them. Chi Xiaoyao leaped onto the cloud bridge and quickly arrived behind Su Yun, looking ahead and whispering, "Junior Brother..."

In the other cluster of buildings ahead, the chaos was even worse. Hundreds of great calamity grey monsters were on a killing spree, causing carnage. For a while, the buildings were raining corpses!

This place was very close to the Li family, and many of the Li family's spiritual masters rushed out and were fighting the great calamity grey monsters on the cloud bridge.

The closest one to this side was a big bird carrying a house on its back, a phoenix, rampaging on the cloud bridge. Its beak pecked at and repelled the great calamity grey monsters.

On the small building, Li Zhuxian, Li Muge, and others stood there, each unleashing their divine abilities to fight against the great calamity grey monsters, protecting the others on the cloud bridge as they retreated.

Su Yun was about to rush over when suddenly the cloud bridge where Li Zhuxian and the others were started shaking violently. A great calamity grey monster flew over and grabbed onto the cloud bridge with its claws, exerting force and twisting the bridge!

All the carriages and palanquins on the bridge whizzed and fell like rain, even the phoenix carriage where Li Zhuxian and the others were fell down!

At this moment, the windows in the buildings around the cloud bridge exploded one by one, and countless wood and steel flew out, heading towards the falling carriages!

The phoenix tried hard to flap its short wings but couldn't fly. Suddenly, two huge wings flew over and were attached to the sides of the small building on its back.

The phoenix blinked its eyes. "Fruit?"

Whoosh—

The small building with wings flew up with it, catching Li Zhuxian and the others who were falling.

At the same time, other carriages also grew wooden wings, with steel bearings at the joints of the wings. Wooden birds flapped their wings and carried giant beasts, soaring between the buildings, catching the falling people.

The great calamity grey monster's eyes flashed with ferocity as it searched around and saw Su Yun. It laughed and said, "So it's Su Shangshi! You deceived everyone into thinking you were an envoy sent by the court, even yourself. So much so that you forgot that you're just a poor country bumpkin!"

Su Yun's heart trembled, and he exclaimed, "You're Wu Shentong Wu Shou! How did you become like this?"

"Isn't it all thanks to you?"The calamity gray monster laughed wildly, with a fierce look, coldly said: "You forced me to tell you many secrets, and I became like this, all thanks to you? If I don't turn into a calamity gray monster, will my ancestor of the Wu family spare me?"

Behind him, countless chains suddenly flew out, making a hissing sound, piercing through buildings one after another.

In the air, the cries of calamity gray monsters came one after another, and each one fell on the chains behind him.

Wu Shentong was like a big bird crouching, sneering: "Su scholar, it's useless, even if you are an envoy, you can't save Shuofang today! Everyone, listen to my command, I want chaos in Shuofang!"

The calamity gray monsters flapped their wings and suddenly closed them, rushing towards the carriage that was descending from the sky!

"Whether Shuofang is in chaos or not, it's not up to the emperor, the seven great families, or even you!"

Su Yun squeezed his palm tightly, and the clouds bridge made a cracking sound as it split apart and swept towards the group of calamity gray monsters below!

At the same time, the clouds bridge where Wu Shentong was suddenly seemed to be tied in a knot, locking him tightly inside!

"I call the shots here!"

Su Yun shouted loudly, pushing his palm forward heavily, and the clouds bridge carrying Wu Shentong flew back rapidly.

Behind them, two buildings that were very close suddenly twisted and with a loud bang, they clamped down on Wu Shentong and the clouds bridge together!

Ying Ying watched this scene dumbfoundedly, and suddenly rolled up her book and knocked on Su Yun's head: "No swearing!"
