Chapter 164
Yu Jingwan opened the way with a dry ice sword and rushed out several miles away, killing no less than a dozen high-level monsters on the way.
In Ice Soul Peak, the senior sister's combat power is undoubtedly the first.
However, no matter how high the combat power is, it cannot stop the demon spirit.
In order to avoid casualties, Yu Jingwan's purpose was to retreat immediately. As long as they left Lingxi Forest, everyone would be safe.
But the forest is vast, so it doesn't mean you can leave it if you leave. Plus it's foggy everywhere, so you're lucky not to get lost.
Stopping at a mountain col, Yu Jingwan's heart heaved. After making sure that the surroundings were safe for the time being, she turned her gaze to the body that Luo Xiyun was carrying.
Yun Ji could see tears in Yu Jingwan's eyes.
There are not many people in Bingpo Peak, and Yu Jingwan is the first to join. She treats every junior fellow apprentice and junior fellow apprentice like a family member. Now that two of them have died, how can a senior sister not feel sad.
Feeling sad, Yu Jingwan remained calm and briefly asked what happened, then remained silent.
Yu Jingwan is also guessing who the murderer is.
Killing her two junior brothers must be avenged.
While he was meditating, footsteps appeared from one side, and the fog rolled into two figures, which turned out to be Ni Fuqing and Ye Tan.
In order to collect Fire Tongue Grass, Bingpo Peak's True Inheritance mostly moves in nearby areas, so it is not surprising for everyone to encounter him.
"Fifth Junior Brother and Sixth Junior Brother! What's going on!" Ni Fuqing was shocked when he saw the body.
"Those who kill must be Bingpo Peak's mortal enemies." Ye Tan said coldly.
Yu Jingwan shook her head and said: "There are no clues. This matter will be put aside for the time being. The first priority is to leave this place."
Ni Fuqing said: "The demon clan in the forest was frightened, and demon spirits appeared. My seventh junior brother and I encountered a group of wind-chasing wolves. We just turned back. The road to the outskirts of the forest is difficult to walk."
Ye Tan said nothing and nodded.
Qin Wu rubbed his hands and said, "This is troublesome. The demon spirit is still there. If the demon shadow comes after us, none of us will survive."
Yu Jingwan said: "What kind of shadow? There is a monster in Lingxi Forest?"
Qin Wu said briefly: "The demonic shadow that appears in a magic mark flower cannot even be stopped by the sword formation of Jinluan Peak."
Hearing this, Yu Jingwan and others were surprised.
Yu Jingwan said: "I will open the way and I will risk my life to take you out."
The senior sister's eyes were solemn, and the dry ice sword sent out a deep chill. She was going to risk her life for a group of junior brothers and sisters.
"I know a road. It shouldn't be dangerous. It's not far from here. Come with me." Yunji suddenly spoke.
Everyone followed Yunji with suspicion, and soon they walked into a basin and found an underground cave. It was the hidden path that Yunji took when he followed Wang Dachui.
The passage in the belly of the mountain is dark, dark, and cold. It looks gloomy, but it is actually very safe. At least there are no monsters at the level of demons inside.
Yunji has clearly explored this road, and the only zombies and black-coloured snakes are not a threat to him at all.
Light the torch, and Yunji leads the way.
Everyone was silent along the way.
Although a lot of Fire Tongues were found, the two lives they lost could never survive.
Of the nine true disciples of Ice Soul Peak, there are now only seven left.
When Yunji and his party were walking along the passage at the bottom of the mountain, a group of people were standing on the top of the mountain, headed by Ji Guxuan.
"The aura of ancient corpses comes from the depths of this mountain, right?" Ji Guxuan asked.
Ji Qingyao nodded, looking a little nervous and said: "There are demon spirits in the distance. There are more than one. We should leave here."
"It's just a demon spirit, what are you afraid of?" Ji Guxuan didn't care, waving his hands and commanding: "Let's dig up this mountain together!"
A group of disciples all said yes, and each activated their flying swords to start bombarding the mountain.
In order to get high rewards, these disciples from all walks of life hired by Ji Guxuan used all their strength. Soon a large crater was opened in the mountain, and the rocks cracked, making bursts of roars.
Ji Qingyao always frowned.
She felt a looming special aura. The feeling that the aura brought to her was very terrifying, and it was getting closer.
As the mountain collapsed, Ji Qingyao became increasingly restless.
"Brother, we should go. Something is coming, and it's very strong." Ji Qingyao grabbed Ji Guxuan's arm tightly, her face pale.
"With so many foundation-building masters, it doesn't hurt to have a demon spirit..." Ji Guxuan noticed something strange about his sister. He had never seen Ji Qingyao so nervous.
What can make A Yao look like this is definitely a very terrifying aura.
Ji Guxuan was by no means a reckless person. He pondered for a moment and said to the disciples who were opening the mountain: "I'll go to the foot of the mountain to have a look. You continue to dig. If you find what I want, the spiritual stone will be doubled."
All the disciples were overjoyed.
"Don't worry, Brother Ji! We will definitely dig out the bones in this mountain for you!"
"Only Senior Brother Ji recognizes the value of ancient remains. You may not want to give them to others. Although we didn't find any spiritual flowers or herbs during this trip to Lingxi Forest, we definitely earned a lot of spiritual stones!"
"The emperor of a country naturally spends a lot of money. If Brother Ji has any instructions in the future, please don't forget us."
These disciples were hired by Ji Guxuan at a high price, and they were promised that as long as they found spiritual objects such as bones containing spiritual energy, they would be paid twenty spiritual stones for each piece they found.
There must be brave men under the heavy reward. In order to earn more spiritual stones, these disciples worked harder to dig mountains.
Ji Guxuan smiled and said yes, then said a few perfunctory words and led Ji Qingyao away from the top of the mountain and down the mountain.
"What on earth is it?"
"I don't know. The cold atmosphere is full of a predatory feeling, as if a bottomless black hole is trying to swallow up everything around it."
"Plunder...could it be a monster?"
Ji Guxuan frowned, looked at the top of the mountain with some reluctance, and turned around to leave with Ji Qingyao.
When it comes to making choices, who can be better than the king of a country?
Ji Guxuan stayed away from the danger, but left the crisis to the unsuspecting disciples on the top of the mountain.
With bursts of roars, the entire mountain gradually tilted. In a burst of thunderous roars, the mountain collapsed completely. Rolling stones fell like rain. The fog rose around the mountain. Some monsters were smashed and fled in all directions.
A huge boulder rolled down from the top of the mountain, knocking down more than a dozen big trees along the way, and crashed head-on into a black figure with black aura all over its body and two white eyes exposed.
Bang.
Facing the rolling boulder, the black shadow just stretched out a hand, and the boulder immediately fell apart and became a pile of dregs.
The footsteps of the black shadow continued to move forward, and were soon wrapped in fog.
Soon after, wails were heard from the top of the mountain, the sound of mountain climbing completely disappeared, and corpses were everywhere.
The disciples who died on the top of the mountain were entirely caused by Ji Guxuan, and Yunji and others who were walking in the passage at the bottom of the mountain also suffered an unparalleled disaster.
As soon as I reached the place where the corpse crickets were infested, there was a roar above my head, the stone wall shook, and rubble fell.
Qin Wu looked up blankly and said sadly: "Lao Jiu, didn't you say there is no danger here!"
