Chapter seven hundred and seventy third gold-devouring ant queen
Chapter 790: Sunset Rift Valley
"Master, what exactly is the 'War for Lords'?"
This was not the first time that Xia heard this term. Tang Ming had already said it once in the Higurashi City Mercenary Union. 89
Zheng Feng explained: "Soul beasts actually have many of the same habits as humans, and dividing territories is one of them. Not only earth beasts, but even low-level monsters, such as gold-eating ants, also have their own sense of territory.
Outsiders who dare to invade their territory will be severely punished."
"The higher-level soul beasts have larger territories and stronger territorial awareness, even covering the territories of other low-level soul beasts. However, as long as no one challenges the status of the supreme lord, many lords will not mind that in their own territories,
There are some low-level soul beasts, and the outer Rift Valley has been the territory ruled by the Earth-Splitting Tiger King since many years ago."
"To simply understand, the Earth-Splitting Tiger King's position in the Rift Valley is that of the supreme lord. All other soul beasts in the valley are members of the territory. The Earth-Splitting Tiger King is respected and has been like this for generations..."
Zheng Feng said in a deep voice: "But a few years ago, an uninvited guest came to the Rift Valley. After settling in, he challenged the majesty of the supreme lord and seemed to want to replace him. This led to the 'Lord Battle' in the Rift Valley. The winner
The one who wins can become the new supreme lord of the Rift Valley, and all the spirit beasts in the valley will respect him, while the loser will lose everything..."
Xia Ya finally understood why Tang Ming said that the Earth-Splitting Tiger still hated humans, but the Earth-Splitting Tiger disappeared. It wasn't that they didn't want to drive away humans, but they just had too much time to take care of themselves.
Since the uninvited guest dared to challenge the original lord, it proved that he had a certain degree of confidence. Moreover, the Earth-Splitting Tiger has not yet appeared again. No wonder Zheng Feng and Ya came in such a hurry after seeing the information.
"A few years ago? Is this why the Earth-Splitting Tiger did not attack humans again? The Earth-Splitting Tiger has disappeared for several years and has not reappeared to kill humans. Could it be that..."
"Roar——!" Ya glared at Xia Ya with murderous intent in her eyes. It was a naked warning. If Xia Ya dared to talk nonsense again, in the words of her master, she would let this guy know why Hua'er was like that.
red!
Zheng Feng knew what Xia Ya was doing, so he shook his head and said: "A few months ago, Tang Ming reused the Wind Hidden Rat and sneaked into the valley. The battle for the lord is still not over yet."
The battle for the supreme lord will only occur between high-level soul beasts. This kind of battle does not determine the outcome. Once the winner is determined, it will definitely be a life and death battle.
Therefore, if both sides are not absolutely sure that they can kill each other and protect themselves, it is impossible to give it a go.
Neither side can afford to lose. Once defeated, they will lose not only their territory, but also their lives!
"Who is that uninvited guest?" Xia Ya asked
"King-level quasi-celestial beast, blue-eyed blue fire lion..." Zheng Feng said with a gloomy expression.
There are two Earth-Splitting Tigers in the Rift Valley, one of which is also a King-level Earth-Splitting Tiger. If the outsider does not have enough strength, how could the two sides have been entangled for several years and still not have a winner?
According to Tang Ming's investigation data, the blue-eyed blue fire lion seems to be gradually gaining the upper hand, and the battle situation is serious, otherwise Zheng Feng and Ya would not have arrived immediately.
If Zheng Feng was the only one facing the Blue-Eyed Fire Lion, his chance of winning would be infinitely close to zero.
Therefore, he must first obtain the approval of the Earth-Splitting Tiger in the valley, and then join forces with him to fight against the Blue-Eyed Blue Fire Lion. Only then will he have a greater chance of winning.
Acting blindly will only lead to death!
As for whether we can gain the trust of the Earth-Splitting Tiger King, it all depends on the fate of the teeth...
But even so, the process is still extremely dangerous. If it weren't for his teeth, Zheng Feng would not have intervened in this muddy water.
Zheng Feng didn't let Ya directly notify the Earth-Splitting Tiger King in the valley because he was afraid of being discovered by the blue-eyed blue fire lion in advance. If he wanted to become a special force of the Earth-Splitting Tiger King, he had to ensure their secrecy.
Ya naturally understood his master's thoughts. No matter how strong the desire in his heart was, he still endured it and transformed into a pocket form again. Even the aura of the Earth-Splitting Tiger completely disappeared from his body. He took the lead and led the way in front of the team.
"Let's go! Try to hide your own aura..." Zheng Feng put away the teddy, said to the two people behind him, and quickly followed him.
Although Ya has been away from here for more than ten years, he still has at least some vague memories, which are much better than those of them who came to the Great Rift Valley for the first time.
There are red rock walls everywhere in the Rift Valley, and the hot air flow never stops. Although it is called the Rift Valley, it is actually not very wide. The roads inside are not narrow. There are many forked roads, among which most of them are
Some of the forks in the road are dead ends.
Among Tang Ming's information, there is a simple road map of the Rift Valley. He used the Wind Hidden Rat to blend into the hot wind and draw it after exploration. Because of his limited strength, he did not dare to go too far even with the help of the Wind Hidden Rat.
Deep, so the map is not detailed
But at least the Rift Valley is divided into two areas, the East Area and the West Area
The East District is the current range of operations of the two Earth-Splitting Tigers, while the West District is the range of operations of the Blue Eyes Blue Fire Lion. At first glance, the area of the East District is larger than that of the West District. In terms of the division of the chassis, it seems to be the territory of the Earth-Splitting Tigers.
have the upper hand
In fact, it is not the case. If you think about it carefully, you can figure it out... There are two tigers that split the earth, but there is only one blue-eyed blue fire lion. With one against two, after more than three years, it has occupied 100% of the Rift Valley.
It covers an area of forty, and is still encroaching on the East District step by step, which shows how terrifying it is!
Territory is like the dignity of a soul beast. If it is not absolutely impossible, the soul beast will not make the slightest concession. This is true for ordinary soul beasts, let alone a king-level soul beast.
Nowadays, the blue-eyed fire lion has occupied 40% of the territory of the Rift Valley. It is conceivable that the Earth-Splitting Tiger King must be full of helplessness.
After Zheng Feng and the others entered the Rift Valley, the route they chose was the Eastern District.
Although Ya Ya leads the way, Ya actually leads Zheng Feng and the others around east and west, and there is no precise route to speak of.
Ya had not stayed here for a full month when he was forced to run away by the unscrupulous mercenary group.
She was not very impressed by the route here. With her confused foodie personality, if she had even the slightest impression of this place, she would not be able to afford the ride.
After all, Ya is not Youyou and does not have a photographic memory, but Ya still has one advantage that outsiders don’t have, and that is the sense of smell!
With his extraordinary sense of smell and his familiarity with the scent of the Earth-Splitting Tigers, Zheng Feng and the others were able to avoid a lot of detours by following the scent along the way.
The atmosphere in the Rift Valley was a little weird. Zheng Feng could clearly sense the countless soul beasts hiding in the dark, and Ya had already hidden his own aura, but the strange thing was that no soul beasts actively attacked him along the way.
Even if they meet face to face, the other party will turn around and run away.
At a fork in the road, they encountered a five-meter-long 'flame-tailed snake'. Judging from its size, it was at least as strong as a high-level fantasy beast. Zheng Feng originally thought that it would take a lot of effort to continue moving forward, but he didn't know
, before they took action, the flaming tailed snake they faced had already swung and turned away without any intention of fighting.
"Xixi?" "Nini?"
Sylph and Undine looked at each other, tilted their heads, not knowing why, and finally looked at their master at the same time.
Zheng Feng also didn't know the reason. He reached out and pulled off the tail on his head and asked, "Tail, what did you find?"
"I don't know either. The Flame Tail Snake should be an aggressive spirit beast. Under normal circumstances, it is impossible to escape without a fight. It doesn't matter if it recognizes the female cat, but the female cat has clearly hidden her aura now. Look,
It looks like an ordinary wild cat, so it shouldn't be discovered?"
The tail shook her body and broke free from Zheng Feng's hand. It was also her first time to come to the Rift Valley. She also didn't know why the flaming tail snake was so strange.
"Meow~~~" Ya turned back and reasoned confidently
She felt that the flame-tailed snake might have eaten something wrong today, and now it was upset. In order to rush to solve the problem, it ran away without a fight~
