Chapter 46: The Five Thunder Law (Middle)

  "This donor, why must you be so aggressive? Why not listen to the old Taoist's advice and stop here. You two can turn your animosity into friendship and live in peace, wouldn't that be better?" This self-proclaimed Zhang Daocheng, a Taoist from Laoshan Mountain, had a faint smile on his face all along, and didn't take Wang Chan's murderous intentions to heart at all. On the contrary, he was enthusiastic about mediating between him and Liu Lao San.

  "He originally came to kill, but unexpectedly met such a strange old Taoist here!" Wang Chan's mind was racing with thoughts. In his feeling, the danger emanating from the opponent not only did not weaken in the slightest, but instead became even more ferocious after Dao Cheng's words, just like a mountain tiger stalking its prey before pouncing to kill at the right distance and timing.

  This Taoist priest is definitely not a good person either!

  Wang Chan sneered inwardly, but remained silent. He lowered his hands to his thighs, his entire body seemingly relaxed yet tense. Standing still, he fixed his gaze intently on Zhang Daocheng before him. Since the old master's passing, only this old Taoist had been able to make Wang Chan feel a few points of pressure. That was why Wang Chan hadn't continued to attack - he wanted to wait and see what kind of idea Zhang Daocheng had in mind. He had actually come all the way from Donghai Cengshan to find Zhou Lin!

  As for Liu Lao San, he is a mediocre person with a big belly. If he wants to kill someone, no one can protect him.

  In addition, inside and outside the room, except for the three of them, all the others were already dead and could not die again, and there would be no major changes in a short period of time. This Liu Lao San was specially arranged to receive Zhang Dao Cheng today, and even the security forces on the entire 18th floor were temporarily adjusted, not only were the patrol teams that came and went frequently reduced, but also all the secretly set up monitoring probes inside the room were turned off.

  He was afraid that he would accidentally provoke Zhang Lao Dao, this eccentric "hermit". He only left a few personal bodyguards and mercenaries in the house and outside, which naturally made it much easier for Wang Chan to take action without any worries.

  Now he wants to kill Liu Laosan, but first he has to get past Zhang Daocheng.

  "Taicheng Palace on Laoshan Mountain? I know that Laoshan has a 'Guang Lao Dao', who is an elder of the Golden Mountain sect of Taoism. I don't know what relationship you have with him? I thought Laoshan had become a famous scenic spot, and all the Taoist priests in Taicheng Palace were fake, but seeing you today made me realize that I was wrong. However, aren't Taoist priests supposed to be about clarity and non-action? Why are you involved with someone like Liu Lao San? Is it true that people's hearts are no longer ancient, and even those who live outside the world cannot avoid being worldly?"

  Wang Chan's eyes narrowed into a line, his breathing became gentle and slow, his voice squeezed out from between his teeth, like a series of dark winds echoing, falling into people's ears. Liu Lao San couldn't help but shudder, his legs softened, and he almost fell to the ground with a thud.

  Liu Lao San had always thought that he was a big shot in Ha City, with connections to both high-ranking officials and underworld figures. Many people had died at his hands over the years, either directly or indirectly, earning him a reputation for ruthlessness. But today, after witnessing Wang Chan's method of killing, he suddenly realized how weak and insignificant he truly was.

  Once again, hearing Wang Chan's icy and bone-penetrating tone, his slow and deliberate speech made her scalp tingle involuntarily, with several layers of goosebumps rising all over her body. She suddenly turned her head to look at a red button hidden behind a flower vase in the corner of the wall.

  That button is the alarm device in this presidential suite, which not only connects to the security department in Jinhai Building but also directly links with the police station's alarm center. As soon as it rings, within two minutes, a large number of subordinates will rush up from various floors. Five minutes later, the nearest police station will dispatch fully armed special police to support.

  This Liu Lao San was originally suspicious and afraid of death. The security measures in the Jin Hai Building were much stricter than those in other five-star hotels in Ha City.

  "Don't move!" Zhang Lao Dao said, although he was still facing away from Liu Lao San, his ears were always making the slightest tremble after Wang Chan came in, any change in the entire room in front of and behind him was as if he saw it with his own eyes. "As long as you leave me more than three steps away, this donor can kill you under my eyelids, if you don't want to die, just stand still where you are, don't move."

  Almost the same as Wang Chan, Zhang Daocheng felt a sense of danger that made his heart skip a beat. Although he still had a calm and composed expression on his face, in his heart, he was very clear that someone like Wang Chan, who was highly skilled in martial arts and could kill without batting an eye, would be able to attack with incredible speed if he wanted to take down a fellow practitioner at close range. If Zhang Daocheng tried to intervene, even the slightest carelessness would lead to complete failure. And Liu Lao San was just an ordinary person, who would become a corpse in an instant if he fell into Wang Chan's hands for even a fraction of a second.

  This time he came to find Liu Lao San in person, also with a purpose and a goal. He wanted to use the power of the local snake to find Zhou Lin at the fastest speed, in order to get ahead of everyone else.

  Zhou Lin's smuggling business, to be honest, is just a small matter in the eyes of some domestic forces. Moreover, being hidden in a small county town like Hulin, what can he possibly achieve?

  If it wasn't for Zhou Lin coincidentally bringing back a batch of lost antiques from Russia this time, and the news leaked out due to a series of coincidences, attracting attention from all sides, someone like Zhang Daocheng wouldn't have paid any attention to Zhou Lin, let alone travel thousands of miles just for this.

  However, the secular power behind Taishan Taiqing Palace is not small, but its influence is only in the Shandong coastal area. As for the Northeast, it's still a bit out of reach. So Zhang Lao Dao directly found Liu Lao San and asked him to help with something. After all, it's much easier than searching for a needle in the vast ocean by himself.

  But he also came at an inopportune time.

  Liu Lao San is a typical wall grass, wherever the wind blows, he leans. Now that Lin Yuan Shan Lin Gong Zi has extended an olive branch to him, he immediately wants to surrender and cling to the Lin family's thigh. On the other hand, Lei Xing has developed a murderous intention towards him.

  Liu Lao San is a cunning and crafty little villain, who has his own plans in mind. On the surface, he appears to be loyal, but secretly, he is making a fortune. He takes advantage of any benefits that come his way, and if there are none, he leaves. Since Lin Yuan Shan is not from Ha City after all, he will eventually return to Beijing. As soon as he leaves, Liu Lao San will still be himself, and not only will his power not decrease, but he can also take advantage of the situation to make a big show, using Lin Yuan Shan's name to intimidate others and gain benefits without end.

  Unfortunately, Lei Xing didn't know what was on his mind, only knowing that this would make it possible for him to be in the same boat as Lin Yuanshan, which would be detrimental to himself. So he directly requested Wang Chan to help him kill and silence him.

  However, Wang Chan's mind was pure and simple, but he didn't have as many thoughts and worries as they did. Killing someone was just killing someone, no matter how much you talked about it, it was useless. At present, Zhang Daocheng, the old Taoist, was standing in front of him, blocking his way. If he wanted to kill Liu Laosan, he would have to kill Zhang Daocheng first.

  But Zhang Daocheng's birthplace, the Taichang Temple in Cuishan Mountain, has a very mysterious origin! Wang Chan asked the question earlier because he had heard from Lao Yezi that the Taichang Temple in Cuishan Mountain is the territory of the Quanzhen School of Taoism. Many Taoist priests inside are unsung masters who not only practice internal martial arts and fist techniques but also live in seclusion deep in the mountains, cultivating alchemy skills that only exist in legends.

  Among them was an old Taoist named Kuang, a contemporary of the Daoguang Emperor of the Qing dynasty. He and Grandfather's father were close friends. He was particularly skilled in the Thunderclap technique, able to summon thunder and lightning with a mere hand gesture, dispel clouds and mist, and strike down evil spirits. His traditional martial arts skills were unlike anything else, truly divine and otherworldly.

  Although Wang Chan was not very convinced, he also knew the Tao of martial arts. After refining and achieving great success, washing his marrow and changing his blood, he could return to his prenatal state as a baby. He could swallow and spit out internally and externally, connecting heaven and earth, and condense the sea of energy in his abdomen, transforming it into an internal elixir. This is called refining energy and spiritualizing in Taoist daoyin exercises. In comparison, the two are just different ways of saying the same thing, with the same essence.

  Moreover, after the martial arts are highly accomplished, they can further refine the five internal organs to give birth to the vital energy, and in Taoism, there is a saying that the five internal organs are the source of the Five Thunder. It is said that as long as the Qi of the five internal organs is gathered together, it will converge into one, and one can attain the Great Way, grasp the subtlety of the Five Thunder, called the Orthodox Taoist method of gathering the Five Thunder. In fact, it refers to the practitioner's inner energy cultivation reaching the prenatal realm of the Five Qi returning to the origin.

  From this point on, Taoist magic and martial arts actually have a lot in common.

  Just like Zhang Daocheng in front of you, his breath is inward and profound, casually leaning on the sofa, seemingly relaxed all over, but actually he has already put out his external and internal energy, his whole body's energy mechanism is lively and flowing through every part of his body, making each part of his body always maintain a critical point that can be triggered at any moment.

  As soon as Wang Chan made a slight move, the old Taoist immediately rose up violently and intercepted him in time, turning his body into a domain that he fully controlled within several steps in all directions.
