The stars are sparse and the night is bright and windy.
But when I saw that the person who came was pale and sickly, he moved extremely fast.
Its night walking speed can actually catch up with the level of the sixth level of enlightenment. If anyone sees it, they will definitely be shocked. After all, such a group of elite soldiers is meandering towards the cultivation sect.
Although the number is only a few hundred, it is comparable to an ordinary military guard regiment with tens of thousands of people. Their name in the Nanli Dynasty was not the military guard number, but the Zhushi Legion.
This Zhushi legion did not exist forever, but was a legion that emerged from some prosperous dynasties in the past hundred years. Almost everyone in the legion is a powerful person. The combat power of Zhushi at his peak is comparable to that of Juejing
Seventh-level cultivators. After all, seventh-level cultivators do not have square weapons to assist them. In addition, they cannot mobilize their own energy and practice magical powers. They only have physical fitness, which is much stronger than ordinary military guards.
The so-called Zhu Shi knew that he could not step into the eighth level of enlightenment to obtain the square weapon, and had a first glimpse of the five elements. He turned to specializing in physical skills and used them to almost everything. With the support of various materials from the dynasty, he became a master.
With such good skills, he can easily wipe out an entire city.
But why does this team of Zhushi turn sickly pale, but their actions are not affected in the slightest. Just based on these, people can be suspicious.
The sky around the Imperial Dynasty was about to turn south. As it was getting closer to dawn, the autumn light disappeared and fell into endless darkness.
The fast-moving Zhushi Army no longer moved forward, but found a secluded mountain forest. It seemed that they were not ready to continue their journey. After lighting a bonfire and having a hearty meal, they slept on the spot with their clothes on.
By this time, the mountain forest had already fallen into silence. The small beasts that hunted at night had also returned to their lairs.
...
There is a huge valley deep in the mountains to the south.
Along with several black shadows, they continued to approach the bird's nest that stretched out from the high part of the cliff and behind the huge rock. They were about to touch the huge eggs stained with the blood of the chicks.
At this moment, a loud bird song came rolling from the direction where the blue and red wind shadow bird disappeared.
It seems that Feng Yingniao knew something when he saw the prey he was following disappeared. Worried about the safety of the nestling, he hurriedly turned back and immediately rushed back towards the nest.
Lie Xiling raised his head, wanting to take a closer look at the shape of the giant bird. However, he found that it was past Yin hour, and the mist in the mountains had risen, blocking the skylight outside the valley, making it difficult to see each other clearly.
"Senior Brother Zheng Sheng, Senior Sister Zhao, and Xiaoling think we should move forward at this moment. The fog is thick in the valley at this time, and staying here will not serve any purpose. Besides, it is not dark and winter here, and the giant bird,
Most of it is not aimed at us. I always feel that if I keep gathering here, I will encounter variables that are difficult to control." Not long after Lie Xiling woke up, he found that the surroundings were getting quieter and quieter.
He entered the valley a few days ago, and until now, he has never encountered such a situation of complete silence.
If his intuition was correct, something was sneaking towards the giant valley in the darkness.
Zheng Sheng hesitated for a moment and felt that what Lie Xiling said was true, so he nodded.
Since the target of the big bird was not the sect's trial team, there was no need for him to stay here anymore. He remembered this mountainous area and had previously looked for a depression in order to find a shelter from the wind.
If it is true as Lie Xiling said, this terrain is really unsafe. Once surrounded, it will be absolutely difficult to escape.
After thinking about it, he talked with Zhao Xin for a while, and then asked Qian Chi in a low voice: "Brother Qian, why don't we move forward a little bit? The mountains here are low and it's not suitable for attacking and defending. Why don't we change to another one?"
Where?"
"Forget it, since the big bird's hunting target is not us, let's move forward gropingly. But this mountain shape..." Qian Chi paused, obviously he had not explored it well before.
The way forward.
"I know the mountain road, and I also know that about half an hour's walk forward, there will be a slightly larger cliff cave. It can accommodate dozens of people. Then we only need to guard the entrance of the cave, and the difficulty of dealing with the enemy will be much reduced."
"Well, it's better to guard the entrance of the cave than to be hunted for no reason like this. Wait until dawn, this weird situation will be much less severe, and it will be easier to deal with." But it was not Qian Chi who spoke, but Zhou, who was elegant by nature.
Wan, analyzed carefully.
"Without further delay, let me explore the way ahead. Just tell me when you get to the cave." Qian Chi was not a Moji person. As soon as the plan was finalized, he stepped forward and agreed.
"It's up to me, Brother Qianchi. I think the danger will come from behind. The mountain road is long and narrow. Since there is a big bird chasing in front, part of the hidden danger will naturally be cleared. I am very familiar with this mountain road." Lie Xiling listened.
After hearing what Qian Chi said, he spoke directly.
"But you can't see your fingers in this valley, how can you tell the way?"
"Haha, it's not a waste of time for me, senior brother Qian. I have a clever plan of my own." Lie Xiling knew that Qian Che's location confirmed the direction of Juegu, so he walked over there, and said lightly when passing Qian Che: "Qian Che.
Senior brother was keeping vigil at night, but he was really vigilant."
Although he did not explain that he was the one who spied on Qian Chi not long ago, Qian Chi understood his words in an instant. With his mind shaken, he said decisively: "Okay, senior brother will cut off the back for you. The mountain road is dangerous, so each disciple will go his own way."
Let’s hold hands and move forward. The new trial disciples will move forward, while Junior Brother Zheng Sheng and I will stay behind.”
Everyone didn't know what Lie Xiling and Qian Chi meant by what they said, but when they saw Qian Chi readily agreeing, they no longer had any doubts.
Lie Xiling took the lead, stretched out his hand, and grasped it with the other hand in the darkness. But he felt that the tentacles were slippery, and he thought it must be Wei Qingxian or Yun Ziyi who had been protected by Zhou Wan and Zhao Xin before. He could feel the other person a little bit.
The soft hands trembled slightly, and this young man who had always been brave could not help but sweat dripping from his palms even in the dark night.
At this time, he could not allow him to think about his children's personal relationship, so he lowered his voice and said, "Brothers and sisters, just follow me later, no need to hesitate."
...
Not to mention that Chen Wu and the disciples of the Tianyin Sect were heading forward in the dark, but a fierce battle had already begun at the cliff of Jue Valley, which was about two hours away.
The Wind Shadow Giant Bird arrived in an instant, and when he saw the cunning Nanli Fire Fox rushing toward the nestlings, he couldn't help but let out a heart-rending cry and hurriedly rushed towards the nest.
The greedy Nanli Fire Fox was poking its head into the nest, and was about to bite the Wind Shadow Bird's giant egg. However, the giant bird that was rushed to it lifted it up with its sharp claws, and just as several other black shadows were about to escape, they suddenly came from the wind.
The shadow birds sprayed out several balls of Lihuo from their mouths, and howled immediately to escape. Some of them rolled on the cliff for a while, and then fell straight down the cliff. The speed of the Nanlihuohu couldn't help but slow down.
It seems that the Li Fire spitted out by the Wind Shadow Bird actually hurt the cunning Nan Li Fire Fox.
Bang! The Nanli Fire Fox, which was held in the sharp claws of the Wind Shadow Bird, was swung by the big bird angrily and hit the cliff hard. Immediately, the skull cracked and became a piece of red and white. It fell into the valley and it seemed that it would not survive.
The other Nanli Fire Foxes that slowed down their movements were finally half a beat slower. In the same way, they were caught by the Wind Shadow Bird and were beaten to death on the cliff.
The battle was not over yet. It seemed that the smell of blood could be smelled. Turning away from the lone cliff to the other side of the valley, a large group of southern firefoxes were following the cover of dead vines and shrubs on the cliff, heading towards the bird's nest, fearless and fearless.
Coming quickly.
In the mountain forest where the Wind Shadow Bird had previously traced away, I remembered the first few sparse chirps. Then, I heard the rustling of the surrounding bushes, and several black shadows suddenly emerged from the woods.
But not long ago, the black shadow that ran along the foothills of the valley and disappeared into the darkness had already run fifty miles away. It found an open space, and after chirping a few times, several figures suddenly appeared from the darkness at both ends of the valley.
Ten pairs of blood-red eyes screamed several times across a deep valley hundreds of feet wide, and then they flashed and slid down into the valley.
...
Lie Xiling looked alert along the way, condensing his Qi movement into a line, and looking ahead. Not long before he arrived, he had been to the valley with his brother Lie Zhuang, and was familiar with the terrain. What came next was an accurate sense of Qi movement.
.There was not a single mistake made along the way.
"Gu Gu." Two more strange calls came from a few hundred feet behind. Lie Xiling stopped and asked in a low voice: "Did you hear any noises?"
"I didn't hear it. Could it be that the giant bird came back?" An extremely clear voice sounded behind him. Lie Xiling was shocked physically and mentally. Although he couldn't see clearly in the darkness, his cheeks turned red involuntarily.
He knew this voice. Not long ago, he was so angry that he said, "Who is your junior sister again?"
Lie Xiling calmed down and swept his energy behind him. Although he could only see the area of 50 feet, he had a vague feeling that the danger was actually 10 feet away and was approaching quickly.
"Senior Brother Qian, Senior Brother Zheng, I will lead everyone to move towards the cave at full speed. You should watch your back!" Lie Xiling saw that the whereabouts of his group had been exposed, so he no longer lowered his voice.
"Okay, try your best to move as quickly as possible, and we'll hold back first." Even though Zheng Sheng had the primary level of cultivation of the Five Elements, he didn't dare to ask for help when he saw that the sky in the valley was gloomy.
Lie Xiling stopped talking, tightened his grip on Rouyi, and suddenly sped up.
He estimated the distance and it should take less than half a cup of tea to reach the cave. He also kept an eye on the situation in front of the valley, but there was nothing unusual.
"Junior brother Zheng, there is something strange about sixty feet to your left!" Qian Chi, after all, is a master of the early stage of the Great Five Elements. He had the opportunity to predict it before Zheng Sheng, so he warned.
Just hearing the sound of "squealing" breaking through the air, the square weapon Zheng Sheng had always held in his hand immediately broke through the air, bringing out a faint red wave of air.
"Ouch!" The object that was hit screamed in pain, but it was also strong. The fire flashed, and the black shadow disappeared.
At this moment, Lie Zhuang, who was closer, heard the sound of a sword. Then he saw a glazed long sword coming out of its sheath in the night, bringing out a ray of golden light and attacking towards the foothills on the right.
go.
Snap, 'Fei Bai' went deep into the mountain in an instant, and nailed the Nanli Fire Fox fifty feet away, who was about to sneak attack, to the ground without making a sound. Comparing the two, we can see that Senior Brother Zheng Sheng and Tian Yin
The gap between young people named Qian.
This young man named Qian's use of Yuanli has reached the level of catching wind and shadow, and he can kill people at every turn.
After doing this three or four times, everyone arrived at the cave previously discovered by Hunter Xiling. They assessed the direction and started to use their weapons one after another.
After entering the cave, Wang Xiao, an aristocratic young man from the Tianyin Sect, was waiting to light the fire. Lie Xiling just shouted hurriedly: "Senior Brother Wang, no!" Then he said in detail: "These hidden little beasts, since they can be seen half-way,
Finding us in the silk-lit deep valley means that their vision is suitable for night. Once we light a fire, we will be exposed for no reason. When the time comes, there will be a large number of them, but they will be tired of dealing with it."
Lie Xiling used his energy to look around at his surroundings. The cave was hidden deep between the cliffs. It was probably because of the giant bird that came every day that the little beasts in the mountains and forests did not dare to use this place as a hiding place.
.
It's autumn, and the vegetation inside is decaying, so it's extremely dry, but there's room for one.
He turned around and saw Zheng Sheng and Qian Chi still standing outside the cave entrance. After thinking for a while, he advised: "I'll guard it tonight. We didn't make much noise, and we probably won't attract too many kids."
beast."
Qian Chi vaguely knew Xiling's hunting ability, so he said cheerfully: "Okay, my junior brother is so active, how can I be competitive as a brother?" He also wanted to see Xiling's hunting skills, so he found a dry place.
, sat down cross-legged.
Zheng Sheng hesitated for a while, patted Lie Xiling on the shoulder, and whispered: "Xiao Ling, if you find a large number of strange beasts, wake me up."
"Okay!" Lie Xiling didn't hold on. After saying that, he walked up to Lie Zhuang and said with a smile: "Brother, it's dark and windy at night, and you can't see your fingers. It's perfect for you to practice your archery skills!"
"Well, I have been thinking about your wonderful 'qi machine' technique since the way back, and now I have understood it a little bit. When I learn it, you can give me some advice." Hearing this, Lie Zhuang suddenly felt proud.
Da Zeng stood up and stood with his younger brother at the entrance of the cliff cave.
After about half a cup of tea, the dozens of Nanli Fire Foxes that had been frightened and retreated had now recovered. They figured out where the group of people were going, and silently climbed up from the bottom of the valley towards the cliff cave halfway up the mountain.
