Chapter 178 The surprise of the Child-Fairy of Tianshan, the forbidden area of Lingjiu Palace!
Lin Fan smiled and said, "You just need to watch from the sidelines and you will soon find out."
"Hmph!" Tianshan Tonglao snorted when she heard that, and then remained silent.
The four sword servants of plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum, as well as the leaders of the nine tribes of the nine heavens, saw the two men and stared at their toes, as if they saw and heard nothing.
They did not dare to interrupt the affairs between the old lord and the new lord.
Lin Fan glanced at the four sword servants of Plum, Orchid, Bamboo and Chrysanthemum, as well as the leaders of the Nine Heavens and Nine Tribes, and then said:
"Nine Heavens and Nine Divisions, immediately send a message to the thirty-six caves and seventy-two islands. Instruct the thirty-six cave masters and seventy-two island masters to lead their followers to the Lingjiu Palace on Piaomiao Peak within one month!"
"Subordinates take orders!"
Upon hearing this, the leaders of the nine tribes in the Nine Heavens all responded respectfully.
Lin Fan said, "When you send the message, you can tell them that Lingjiu Palace has a new owner, and ask them to come and congratulate me on taking over the Lingjiu Palace. I will remove the life and death talisman from the first one to arrive."
"My Lord, if the life and death talisman is removed, what will happen if those servants become disobedient?"
After hearing Lin Fan's words, the people from the Nine Heavens and Nine Divisions remained silent, but Mei Jian, who was standing aside, couldn't help but ask.
Lin Fan smiled and said, "There are more ways to control people than just the life and death talisman."
"Okay, go down and do it immediately," Lin Fan waved his hand and said to the leaders of the Nine Heavens and Nine Tribes.
"Yes, I'll take my leave!" The leader of the Nine Heavens and Nine Tribes agreed respectfully, then turned and left.
"Hmph! Do you know how to break the life and death talisman?" After the leaders of the Nine Heavens and Nine Tribes retreated, the Tianshan Tonglao on the side could not help but snorted coldly.
Lin Fan smiled and said, "When I was treating your Shaoyang Triple Burner Meridian, I already had a thorough understanding of the flow of Qi in your body."
"As for the name of the Life and Death Talisman, I've heard of it a long time ago and have done some research, so I have some understanding of it. Its essence is the skillful use of masculine and feminine true energy, as well as the transformation between yin and yang."
As he spoke, Lin Fan activated the Sacred Heart Technique's true qi, and a piece of ice as thin as paper soon appeared between his palms.
Even when the Child-Fairy of Tianshan cast the Life and Death Talisman, she still needed liquid, but Lin Fan's Sacred Heart Qi could directly induce the production of borneol, so there was no need for liquid.
Tianshan Tonglao's eyes narrowed slightly and she said, "You really have mastered the Life and Death Talisman!"
Lin Fan smiled and said, "Tong Lao, do you want to try it?"
"Humph! So you helped me heal my wounds, but you also had other motives," Tianshan Tonglao snorted coldly with a somewhat ugly expression, and then continued,
"Now that you have mastered the Life and Death Talisman, it's easy for you to control the Thirty-Six Caves and Seventy-Two Islands. You won't go back on your promise to protect me for three months, will you?"
Lin Fan smiled and said, "Don't worry, Tong Lao. My words are as solid as a mountain. Since this is a deal we agreed on before, I will not go back on my word."
"By the way, I heard there's a stone chamber in the Vulture Palace that contains many pictures and texts on martial arts. I'd love to go take a look. I hope Tong Lao won't refuse."
"Hmph, come with me!" Tianshan Tonglao knew that she didn't have much qualifications to negotiate with Lin Fan now, so she snorted coldly and walked forward with a stern face.
Lin Fan said to the four sword attendants of Plum, Orchid, Bamboo and Chrysanthemum, "You all should come with me."
"Yes, master!" The four sword servants of Plum, Orchid, Bamboo and Chrysanthemum answered respectfully, and then followed Lin Fan and Tianshan Tonglao.
Led by the Tianshan Child-Fairy, the group arrived at the garden.
"Go and move the rockery away," said the Tianshan Child-Father, pointing to a rockery in the garden.
"I'll move it!" Mei Jian said, and hurried forward to move a rockery.
Behind the rockery, the entrance to the tunnel appeared.
The Tianshan Child-Fairy took out a fire starter, lit it, and led the way. A group of six people entered one after another.
Lin Fan said casually, "There should be a lot of hidden weapons in this tunnel. Tong Lao, please don't act recklessly. It would be bad if you get hurt."
"Hmph, if you're afraid of death, then don't come in," said the Tianshan Child-Father with a snort.
While saying this, the Tianshan Child-Fairy kept pressing the trigger in a hidden place along the way to prevent the hidden weapon trap from being activated.
The tunnel twists and turns, spiraling downward, and sometimes it suddenly opens up to reveal a huge cave. It can be seen that the tunnel was built based on a natural cave in the mountain.
After walking for more than a kilometer, a rock appeared in front of them.
"Push the rock away, it's behind it," Tianshan Tonglao said lightly, pointing at the rock.
Lin Fan casually pushed the rock aside and said, "Plum, Orchid, Bamboo and Chrysanthemum, come in and take a look."
"This..." The four sword servants of Plum, Orchid, Bamboo and Chrysanthemum were surprised and happy when they heard this, and looked at the Tianshan Child-Fairy with some worry.
Tianshan Tonglao said, "Why are you looking at me? Lin Fan is the master of Lingjiu Palace now. Whatever he says will happen."
After saying this, the Child-Fairy of Tianshan stepped in first.
"Thank you, Master!"
The four sword servants of Plum, Orchid, Bamboo and Chrysanthemum looked at each other, and then knelt on one knee in front of Lin Fan at the same time, expressing their gratitude.
Lin Fan waved his hand, lifted the four people up, and said with a smile, "Alright, no need to kneel all the time. Just do your job well from now on."
"Yes, master!" The four of them responded respectfully, and then stepped into the stone chamber together with Lin Fan.
Lin Fan glanced around and saw that the rocks on the four walls were polished very smoothly, and there were many circles about one foot in diameter carved on the stone walls.
Various figures were engraved in each circle, some were human figures, some were animal figures, some were incomplete texts, and some were just marks and lines.
Next to these circles are numbers such as "甲一", "甲二", "子一", and "子二".
After a rough glance, it can be estimated that the number of these circles is probably close to one thousand!
Lin Fan suddenly remembered something and said to the four girls, Plum, Orchid, Bamboo and Chrysanthemum, "Some of the martial arts here are quite profound. Be careful and choose those that allow you to practice."
"Thank you for the reminder, Master." Upon hearing this, the four girls, Plum, Orchid, Bamboo and Chrysanthemum, thanked Lin Fan again, and their favorable impression of Lin Fan increased a lot.
Tianshan Tonglao looked at Lin Fan in surprise, but didn't say anything.
Lin Fan started reading from "A-1" and found that it was introducing the first move of Tianshan Zhemei Hand, one of the Xiaoyao School's martial arts.
Then in the circle of "甲二" is the second move of Tianshan Zhemei Hand, and so on.
After the Tianshan Zhemei Hand, there are also Tianshan Liuyang Palm and other martial arts.
Lin Fan has profound skills and an incredible understanding, so practicing these martial arts is extremely easy for him.
The four girls, plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum, spent a long time choosing but found nothing to practice. When they tried to practice, they were seriously injured. They had no choice but to withdraw.
In the following time, Lin Fan studied various martial arts in the stone chamber while waiting for the arrival of people from the Thirty-Six Caves and Seventy-Two Islands.
On weekdays, the quadruplet sisters Plum, Orchid, Bamboo and Chrysanthemum take care of her daily life, so she leads a very leisurely and comfortable life.
That day, Lin Fan suddenly remembered something, and with a slight movement of his mind, he took out Boss Wu's body from the system space.
