" no i got to find a place to hide " thought a girl in panic as she ran towards the forest without looking back . As her shadow disappered into the forest group of people could be seen searching while being led by hunting beasts.
The beasts stopped at the edge of forest as the man leading called out " go and spread out , each team three people . we must find her at all cost get it if not we will be done for. GO"
All men had grim face as they spread out in the forest .
While running Shu Qing found a collapsed cave which had a small opeaning enough for her to get in.
But as she got in, the ground collapsed .
"AAAHHH"
Screamed Shu Qing as she fell in an underground tunnel unconscious.
....
The group of people had searched day and night but still couldn't find the wherabouts of Shu qing. All group of recon team had returned for further plan.
A burly man had put a map in front of the group'' we have searched the outer region of dark forest but still we have not found her, it seems she has gone to the inner region. ''
''The inner region of dark forest is filled with high level beast so there is a possiblity that she is dead, but if she is not dead and tells about our ambush our Yu clan will have to bear the consiquence'' said Yu ke with dark face.
The Yu clan as one of the vessel clan of Shu clan colluding with Chen clan who were neck on neck with each other the consequence were relevent ' doom of Yu clan'
As Yu ke thougth up to there chill ran down his spine . Battle between behemoth was not something small clan like Yu clan could meddle but in face of clans interest and greed they still went down the path.
Yu ke took out a communication talisman as he detailed out the events to the clan elders.
...
Shu Qing after who knows how long finally regained her consciousness. But still she could not help but shed some tears as her body was covered with injuries and the pain was not something a pampered girl in her early teens could bear.
Shu Qing slowly revolved her qi as the pain gradually subsided. As she gradually got up she was shocked as her surrounding looked like an underground garden filled with beautiful flowers with thick spiritual energy. But what shocked her the most was a jade coffin within the pavillion at center of the garden.
''could it be that i have entered an ancient tomb?" thought Shu Qing
She slowly wobbled with her injured body as she walked towards the coffin while looking at the flowers around. The flowers were all beautiful with pleasant smell but she couldn't recognise even one of them. As she got near the pavillion she could feel her body slowly recovering from injuries due to the qi revolving around the coffin. With every step she felt revitalised that was not all as her cultivation had a breakthrough from body quenching realm to qi reforming realm and it was still growing.
Finally she saw a stone tablet infront of her with a bold calligraphy written on it which read
'' HEAVEN's CALAMITY ZAI MUSHEN''
''Heavens calamity Zai Mushen huh'' Shu Qing read it as she stroked the stone tablet while thinking
' what could have the person done to be given the title of heavens calamity' But if she knew the reason the look of her face would be a sight to see
As she walked upto the jade coffin she could feel a different type of qi thinning out from around the coffin. Inside the coffin was a body of male who still seem to be in his youth but his features were still hazy. Shu qing reached out her hand as the remaining qi around gardually entered her body but before she could revolve this miraculous qi a heavy pressure pressed her down to the ground and she went unconscious.
With the universal qi diminished the formation on the coffin also dimmed out as the jade coffin's lid slowly slide sideways. Revealing a youth with silver hair dressed in black ancient gown . As the light around the coffin completely diminished ,the youth slowly opened his eyes .
