Chapter 928: Breakthrough

Stepping on the corpse under his feet, looking at the familiar face, Mustang felt as if he had gone back to six years ago, when he had both arms and only half of his tongue left, but he didn't care at all, when everything could be expressed with a sword, words were superfluous.

He believed that he was born to be a killer, and unlike many of the children who were taken captive, he remembered some of the past, the endless snow, the serious-looking parents and the laughing playmates, and even more so the scene when they were killed.

He was only five or six years old, but he didn't feel anything in the face of the death of his loved ones, he was only surprised by one thing, it turned out that killing people was so simple, those men in black stabbed one by one, and their movements were orderly, which was easier than the mountain people picking wild vegetables in spring.

A killer walked up to him, two godless eyes looking down at him, "Are you a fool?"

Because of those wide-open eyes, Mustang had been subjected to similar doubts since he was a child, and he immediately shook his head, but he could not remember whether he had opened his mouth or not, and the words had long since disappeared in his memory.

He never knew who the killer was staring at him, and he didn't bother looking for it.

He was sent out of the mountains to live with three children of the same age, living in a modest dwelling with much more food than his own home.

One day, the adult who delivered the meal came, and in addition to the food, he brought four knives of strange shape, and said, "I will bring only one meal, and you will decide for yourselves who you want to give it to." ”

The other three children were still staring at each other blankly, and the wild horse had already pounced on the narrow knife that he had seen first, imitating the posture of the killer, although clumsy but calm, and killed his companion in the blink of an eye, and no one had even touched the three narrow knives.

"Yes, you'll be a good killer. The lord said blandly, obviously accustomed to this.

The wild horses were then sent to another strange place, where more children, ranging in age from four or five to twelve or thirteen, got up early and night every day to learn the art of swordsmanship, and regularly worshipped the ethereal Jinpeng Castle and the Dubu King.

On the seventh day of his arrival in a new place, Mustang imitated some of the most powerful children there, cutting out his tongue himself, but was not immediately recognized, and it was not until two years later, when he proved that he was the best among his peers, that he was accepted by the strong man and gave him the name "Mustang ".

As it turns out, the term "strong" is a constantly changing term, and before the initial training is over, several seemingly indestructible powerhouses have been defeated at the hands of inconspicuous challengers, often because of carelessness.

It was from then on that Mustang discovered that although martial arts are important, they are not the only important qualities of a killer, and that perseverance and patience, quick and accurate judgment and counterattack will all play a role at critical moments.

On the first day that Mustang entered Jinpeng Castle, the mature killer teacher instilled a similar killer concept in the new children, which made Mustang very excited, and sincerely believed that Stone Castle was the holy place of killers, and he had worshiped it for many years.

The training of the Carved Wood Academy was unremarkable, the Mustang was neither prominent nor weak, he had long been deeply integrated into the "Snow Mountain Gang" composed of tongue-cutters, and had a fixed status and would not be bullied too much.

Then there is the Furnace Courtyard, where the wild horse is still not tall, and he and his enemies, Huannu, know nothing about each other.

Then the apprentice slaughter began, like a gust of wind, first blowing down the tallest plants and trees, and finally giving up the sun and rain to the rising stars who had been obscured for a long time, of which the wild horses were one of the biggest beneficiaries.

Unlike the helpless Huan Nu, Mustang has long been prepared for this, has a solid network of connections, knows how to show the charm of the leader, and knows how to survive the melee.

Therefore, he looked down on Huan Nu and the Arm Slave Gang, and thought that among that small group, only the Henu was the real killer.

For a long time, Mustang regarded the Dutch girl as an opponent, tried to win her over, and tried to assassinate her, but without success.

In the end, it was the Huan slave who he despised who changed the fate of the wild horse.

Once he left the circle of killers and entered the master's world, the advantage of the wild horse immediately became a disadvantage, and he could not make friends with Shangguan Ru, the tenth prince, who appreciated him when it was raining, but only used him as a tool against Huan Nu.

Mustang still looked down on Huan Nu, but he was suppressed every time, and his contempt soon turned into hatred.

Huan Nu broke countless killer rules, but instead of being punished, he rose step by step, and his existence was a threat to all killers, and it was also a potential loophole for Jinpeng Castle.

Mustang premonition became a reality one by one, it was in this process that the tall image of Jinpeng Fort collapsed, and Mustang began to find his own way, Old Man Mu, Proud Building, Beiting Prince, Xiaoyuetang, just like when he was a child, he bowed to every strong man, but he couldn't accept the orders of that lifelong enemy, whether he was called Huan Nu or Dragon King.

In the same way, when the strong become weak, the wild horse takes it for granted that it turns its back, and does not even bother to find too many reasons, just like cattle and sheep, no matter how abundant the water and grass in a certain place, they have to change places before they are eaten up, and that's it.

Mustang is getting stronger and stronger, but the gap with the Dragon King is getting bigger and bigger, which makes him feel confused, and finally attributes it all to the Book of the Dead.

The Book of the Dead is no longer a secret, rumors about it are increasing, and Mustang finally understands how Huan Nu, who is not like a killer, stands out, and like all aspiring minions, it depends not on hard work and intelligence, but on luck.

He's going to take that luck away.

The lotus girl is not easy to deal with, she not only regards the Dead Man Sutra as a life-saving stunt, but also regards it as a secret between herself and Huan Nu, no matter how the wild horse grovels, she can't get complete trust, let alone the Dead Man's Sutra.

But luck finally beckoned to him, and just when the lotus girl was ambitious, she ushered in the dispersion, she didn't believe in her disciples, and had to temporarily cede power to the wild horses.

Mustang firmly seized this opportunity, and soon found that not all the disciples of Xiaoyue Hall were loyal to the Lotus Girl, and some of them, there were not many of them, but their strength was the strongest, and they usually experienced the two eras of Han Wuxian and the Lotus Girl, and after the comparison before and after, no one liked it, and was inspired by the Lotus Girl, and felt that everyone could be the hall master, as long as they grabbed it.

Mustang immediately integrated this part of the disciples, and at the same time expanded the power of the proud building, Jinpeng Fort no longer cultivated killers, and those children who were trudging on the road to killers became jewels that no one wanted, Shangguan Ru and Lady Meng accepted most of them from the stone castle, but Mustang remembered those people outside the stone castle.

According to memory, Mustang found a group of children, followed the vine, and found more children, so many that they needed to be eliminated drastically.

These work mustangs were handed over to his subordinates, and he was focused on exerting pressure on the Lotus Maiden to explain the situation before him: Xiaoyuetang could hide in the shadows, but in any case, the Imperial Master needed an open organization in order to have a direct influence on the various forces, and this organization must quickly form a strong force, and the Dragon King had already taught the Dead Man's Scripture to his most loyal and best subordinates, and the Imperial Master could no longer hide his secrets.

Mustang was speechless, but this did not affect his strategy, and more and more people supported his opinion, and even some Xiaoyue Hall disciples who were loyal to the Imperial Master felt that since the Wudao Divine Skill could be taught extensively, the Book of the Dead should not be an exception.

The lotus girl who had just dissipated her martial arts not only had her strength reduced to zero, but her willpower had also dropped significantly, and she handed over the Book of the Dead, although it was only a part, but it was far more than the Dragon King's charity to his subordinates.

Who to teach the Dead Mantra is completely controlled by the wild horse, the Lotus Girl hopes that this range is as small as possible, but the wild horse has other ideas, he goes against the Lotus Girl's intentions, and passes the sword technique to almost all the disciples of Xiaoyue Hall and the newly accepted disciples of the Proud Building, and then puts them in Biyu City to kill people and practice the martial arts.

He had a plan, a plan that had been formed for a long time, and looking back, he found that the most effective way to practice was cannibalism, and the carnage between the apprentices of the Killers of Jinpeng Castle impressed him, and it was also the most comfortable period of his life, and he wanted to copy it completely.

Like almost all people who practice the Book of the Dead, Mustang once became arrogant because he believed in swordsmanship too much, thinking that he was at the top, so he wanted to challenge the Dragon King to prove it.

In the peach forest of Guiyuan, Mustang failed to fight the Dragon King as he wished, but he knew that he would definitely lose, and it was not only the Dragon King who broke his illusions, but also Shangguan Hong.

Except for the wild horse, Shangguan Hong was the only one who received the Sutra of the Dead directly from the Lotus Girl, and similarly, only a part of the practice method was obtained, and the core key was "killing".

Mustang has been paying attention to this competitor, and found that the lotus girl does not favor one over the other, Shangguan Hong has the support of the Seven Turns Great Returning Gong, and his skills are stronger, but in terms of swordsmanship, there is not much difference from other cultivators.

But in the peach forest, Shangguan Hong actually broke through the restrictions set by the lotus girl from the beginning, and with a strong will to survive, he used more powerful swordsmanship.

The dragon king, on the other hand, uses a sword as a sword, and has also been out of the confines of the surface of the Dead Man's Scripture.

It was then that Mustang woke up, knowing that he had only tasted the skin of the Book of the Dead, but for a while he had not found a way to enter the house.

The fundamental solution is still in the Dutch girl.

When an inside message confirms that the Dragon King may be trapped in Jinpeng Castle, Mustang takes advantage of this opportunity to encourage the newly regained Lotus Maiden to launch an open attack, announcing to the whole world that Xiaoyue Hall has officially reappeared.

Mustang didn't care about Xiaoyuetang, he just wanted to see how the reborn lotus girl performed the Book of the Dead.

The lotus girl probably saw through his thoughts, so she didn't even draw her sword in Jinpeng Castle, and competed with Dubu King with her flesh palm.

This is enough for the wild horses, the Dead Man Sutra has already completely occupied the Lotus Maiden, just like the Dragon King can replace the sword with a sword, and every move she makes carries the imprint of the Dead Man Sutra.

After this experience, Mustang also broke through the cage of "killing", and he wanted to go one step further and complete the cultivation of the Sutra of the Dead in the unrestricted realm of "extinction".

Therefore, he arranged this underground massacre, and all those who cultivated the Sutra of the Dead, whether it was a disciple of the Proud Building or a disciple of Xiaoyue Hall, had to draw their swords to prove themselves, and the last person who survived would be the strongest, and he would be qualified to challenge the Imperial Master.

Shangguan Hong experienced the initial slaughter, when he fled covered in blood, the wild horse did not stop, he hoped that more people would join in, and it was best for all the cultivators who had come into contact with the Dead Man's Sutra to gather together and turn this slaughter into an unprecedented feast.

Unlike his young apprentices, Mustang didn't count how many people had died under his sword this time, it was pointless, he could clearly feel that his swordsmanship was getting stronger and stronger, and each corpse would bring an improvement.

At the foot of the wild horse, the last pure proud Lou disciple gave his life, thinking that he could turn the youth who killed him into a part of the Peng Immortals, but it turned out that he became a sacrifice to the Book of the Dead.

Mustang sniffed the strong smell of blood and looked forward to the final stage of the killing, this time, he was going to complete the duel with Huan Nu and never die.
