Zhao Heng came up and asked: "Secretary Zuo, what's wrong?"
Zuo Tianci said: "The cliff road opposite is the territory of the Daluo Empire, right?"
Zhao Heng had been here once, so he naturally knew it, and nodded: "That's exactly what it is."
"Don't worry, send two spiritual beasts over to explore the road and clear the roadblocks. Don't let there be any ambush along the way."
Zuo Tianci was very cautious and ordered to go on.
The elder in charge of the spirit beasts nodded, patted the two spirit beasts, and immediately rushed out, investigating all the way along the cliff. This spirit beast was very careful, and did not even miss the edge of the cliff, investigating all the way.
However, no matter how sensitive this spirit beast was, it could never imagine that the ambush was not on the cliff path at all, but at the bottom of the cliff. As for the bag, it was hidden in the dark, but it was not something that a high-level spirit beast could catch.
The two spirit beasts explored all the way to the end, and then gave a warning sound to indicate that there were no threats along the way.
Zhao Heng said with a smile: "Master Zuo, you have no plans and are indeed cautious. But Xingluo Palace is probably waiting at the door of the house at the moment, so how can it have the courage to ambush along the way? I would rather they ambush and lead them out of the door of the house, always more
It's easier to deal with. But with their strength, how qualified are they to ambush..."
"Having said that, there is absolutely nothing wrong with being cautious. There is no ambush here, which does not mean that Xingluo Palace will be 100% immune to an ambush. The way to use troops is to consider all possibilities."
After Zuo Tianci finished speaking, he took the lead: "Let's go."
Zhao Heng and Dao Haitang exchanged glances, and both of them were very alert. Leader Zuo was so cautious, how could they dare to take it lightly.
The three leaders opened the way and the team moved forward slowly. When crossing this cliff road, their marching speed was not very fast. This is common sense. If you walk too fast, you are more likely to be ambushed, and you will not react when you are ambushed.
Therefore, when passing through a place like this, they don't seek speed, but only stability.
Suddenly, Zuo Tianci stopped, a strange look suddenly appeared in his eyes, and then he shouted in a low voice: "Everyone, be careful, something is wrong!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a scream from behind!
"ah!"
This scream was very sharp and sudden, almost connected with Zuo Tianci's words in tandem.
An elder at the high spiritual martial realm had a hole in his chest, as if he had been penetrated by some sharp weapon. A big bloody hole opened up, and his dantian was swallowed directly!
This bleak scene made the other people accompanying them couldn't help but stand on end. These people have all matured through constant killing. Who doesn't have hundreds of lives on their body?
But seeing such a bloody and terrifying scene, my heartbeat still increased! This change happened so fast that I didn't even have time to react, and I saw my companion falling to the ground and dead.
Zuo Tianci quickly jumped over, caught the body, and looked at it for a moment, with a solemn expression on his face: "Does anyone around you see clearly what's going on?"
"We were on our way when we saw the Ninth Elder's body convulsing. It was like this. There seemed to be a ray of light coming down from the ground. The speed was too fast!"
Zuo Tianci took a breath of air and looked towards the ground of the cliff. The cliff was covered with hard rocks. It was doubly difficult to walk in such a place.
Since the light flashes and then disappears, it must not be possible for the masters of the human kingdom to do it. Human beings, even if they are the spiritual masters of the Great Perfection, cannot have such fast skills or such perverted earthly methods.
"Is it a spiritual beast?"
Zuo Tianci frowned slightly and asked Zhao Hengdao: "Deputy Head Zhao, did you see any powerful spiritual beasts when you went to Xingluo Palace that day?"
Zhao Heng shook his head decisively: "From the beginning to the end, there were only four palace masters and a young man coming from behind. How could there be any other spiritual beasts?"
Zuo Tianci frowned slightly: "This is strange. Is there another spiritual beast in Xingluo Palace?"
Zhao Heng said: "The spirit beasts trained by Xingluo Palace have always been the weakest among the three eastern kingdoms. Even Tianji Sect does not have many high-spirit-level spirit beasts. Even if Xingluo Palace has them, it is impossible for them to kill nine in one go.
Elder."
Zuo Tianci was also puzzled. He looked towards the cliff below with a thoughtful look on his face and pondered: "Could it be a spiritual beast cultivating at the bottom of this cliff?"
Dao Haitang suddenly said: "Master of the main hall, this spiritual beast avoided the three Lingwu Dzogchen people in front of us and specifically attacked the group of elders behind. It should be more afraid of the three of us. Why don't we adjust our team. Zuo Zhang
How about we clear the way in front of the door, and Deputy Head Zhao and I will take charge of the rear?"
Zuo Tianci nodded: "Okay, let's wait until we get past this cliff. This place is so sinister and evil that we can't ignore it!"
He was calm on the surface, but he was feeling a little unlucky in his heart. Before he was ready, a high-level elder died first. This was undoubtedly a huge blow to the Jiugong Sect. Both in terms of strength and morale, it was a huge blow.
Quite a setback.
He immediately encouraged: "Don't be depressed, everyone. Xingluo Palace does not have the ability to train such a powerful spiritual beast. This must be an accident. After passing this cliff, let's deal with it later!"
After walking a few steps, Zuo Tianci suddenly said: "Everyone, shorten the distance between each other to avoid being attacked by the enemy due to too much space."
This cliff path is not very long, but it takes a while to walk.
As Zuo Tianci said, suddenly there was a roar from the bottom of the cliff: "Ouch!"
This roar shook the mountain forest and made the entire cliff tremble. When Zuo Tianci heard the roar, he said: "Calm down, everyone, this spiritual beast is warning us, asking us to leave quickly.
Its territory.”
Before Zuo Tianci could finish his sentence, he heard another "oow", and the valley echoed again, more fiercely than the previous one.
This was naturally Qin Wushuang's instruction to let the Purple Lightning Flame Beast deliberately lower its spiritual power. This roar made the Jiugong Sect suspicious.
The most important thing is that this roar attracts the attention of the Jiugong Sect and creates some space for the bag.
Zuo Tianci's expression changed slightly, he walked to the edge of the cliff, unfolded his spiritual power, and spread it out. He began to explore the bottom of the cliff for his spiritual consciousness.
This move is also a warning to the spiritual beast not to act rashly again. This is a deterrent.
When Zuo Tianci was urging him to start, there was another soft cry behind him, "Boom!"
Another elder fell to the ground, blood flowing all over the ground. This time, his chest was still open, and his entire dantian seemed to have been snatched away by something.
Zuo Tianci was shocked and angry, so he returned to check. This time, the anger in his eyes could not be suppressed.
If the first attack was a surprise attack, that would be forgiven. But this time, when everyone was concentrating, they were successfully attacked by surprise, which is extremely annoying.
This was simply a direct demonstration against him, Zuo Tianci, and killed two of his elders in the high spiritual martial realm right under his nose!
Zuo Tianci wiped the elder's unclosed eyes and said, "Seventh Elder, I swear that I will make you rest in peace!"
After saying that, he raised his head to the sky and let out a long roar, and his whole body's spiritual energy started to move wildly. In an instant, the entire echo of the eagle striking the cliff was like thunder from the sky stirring up the fire on the earth, and there was no light in the sky.
Lingwu Dzogchen has reached the realm of Zuo Tianci, and has almost reached its peak state, just waiting to break through to the Xuwu realm.
Therefore, this roar can be said to have made the sky and the earth dwindle by three points. The entire cliff seemed to shake violently, the mountains shook and the ground shook, and stone debris flew everywhere.
"Deputies Zhao and Dao, please protect everyone from this cliff road!"
Zuo Tianci was obviously angry. While giving instructions, he pulled a bloody sword in his hand and waved it smoothly.
The sword flashed, and three rays of light condensed into the soul of the sword, slashing on the mountain road.
The rocky road on the mountain road was like tofu, easily split into deep ravines. The ravines were more than ten feet deep. Zuo Tianci swung his knife all the way and kept splitting. Along the way, he split ravines one after another.
Go together.
Under the force of his sword, Bao Bao did not dare to rush forward and ran to the bottom of the cliff to explain a few words to Qin Wushuang.
Qin Wushuang nodded: "Okay, you go and inform the main hall master and my master that the cliff road ambush is over, and we will change to the next location!"
Bao Bao accepted the order happily. It had just devoured the Dantian of two high-level elders. It was really enjoyable. The harvest was huge.
The frightening cliff path finally came to an end. When they arrived at a wide place, the Jiugong faction took a long breath of relief. The cliff path, which was less than ten miles away, was so frightening. Before setting off, who could have expected it?
Come on, two elders died on this ten-mile mountain road?
Zuo Tianci inspected the surroundings and issued an order: "Keep moving forward. After a hundred miles, choose a wide and smooth place to camp for a while."
The team has experienced this change, and there has obviously been a subtle change in mentality. The momentum that was determined to win earlier has obviously weakened.
Each of them realized that Xingluo Palace was a tough nut to crack, and it seemed not as easy to chew as they thought!
Zuo Tianci saw this, and although he was a little anxious, he did not have an attack. He knew that it was normal for everyone to have some psychological fluctuations at this time.
To make up for this situation, the only way to restore morale is to kill the enemy. Only to go to Xingluo Palace, go on a killing spree, and sacrifice the life of the master of Xingluo Palace.
Dao Haitang walked up to Zuo Tianci and said: "Master Zuo, something is a little strange this time. According to speculation, there should be two spiritual beasts. Otherwise, they would be roaring at the bottom of the cliff one moment, and hurt people on the mountain road the next?"
"
Zuo Tianci nodded: "Is it the kind of spiritual beast that both male and female can cultivate together?"
At this moment, Zhao Heng suddenly shouted softly: "Who is it?"
From the nearby woods, a burst of cold laughter came out, and it passed by like the wind.
Zhao Heng pulled out the golden gun in his hand and patted a high-level spiritual beast: "Let's go and have a look."
One man and one beast must be pursued.
Zuo Tianci said, "Deputy Head Zhao, please stay here!"
Zhao Heng turned around in surprise: "Second Master Zuo, there is an enemy! Don't you want to pursue him?"
Zuo Tianci had a serious expression on his face and shook his head: "I won't chase you!"
Zhao Heng was very puzzled: "Why don't you pursue me? This is in the Daluo Empire, not the Tianxing Empire, nor the Jiuwu Empire!"
