With a sword, he blocked an armored man who was rushing towards him. Fairy Sijue was dripping with sweat and panted.》.》
"Don't worry, Zhao Lang. There will definitely be a turn for the better. The team leader has already notified the nearest rescue monks and received a response. As long as we persist for a while, we will be able to do it."
Before she finished speaking, the sky suddenly turned red and darkened.
The sky where the sun was shining brightly just now suddenly darkened completely like the setting sun, and the entire sky seemed to be stained with a layer of red paint.
"This is?!!"
Not only the monks paused, but even the armored men who were fighting quickly put away their weapons and retreated away.
They all looked strangely towards the west, the red light in their helmets flickering, as if they were extremely excited.
Bang.
An armored man suddenly knelt down on one knee facing the west.
Then came the second one, the third one, and after a while, all the armored men knelt on the ground facing the west, their helmets lowered.
An unusually solemn atmosphere slowly dispersed.
The monks looked at each other.
A monk sneaked forward, struck hard with his sword, and attacked with all his strength, completely cutting off the head of an armored man.
His head was pounding, but all the armored men around him didn't react at all, as if the dead ones were not their companions at all.
Suddenly the monks seemed to be reminded, and they quickly raised their weapons and slashed at the armored men who were kneeling motionless.
Zhao Ke and the Four Wonders Fairy were also among them. Looking at these armored men who were allowed to kill them, although they also had doubts in their hearts, they could only suppress them in their hearts at this time. The top priority was to resolve the crisis first.
Half of the armored men kneeling on the ground were quickly killed.
Boom!!!
Before anyone could attack the last half, the sand dunes in the distance suddenly exploded, and a large cloud of yellow sand shot straight through the sky like spikes.
The ground shook, and the air became increasingly restless and hot. Someone faintly heard what sounded like shouting and howling.
Zhao Ke was startled, quickly held Si Jue's hand, and looked around vigilantly.
"What is that!?" Someone suddenly exclaimed.
Zhao Ke looked in the direction of the sound, but his pupils suddenly contracted as well.
I saw that the huge sand pillar that exploded into the sky had completely solidified, forming a thick stone pillar hundreds of meters high.
The surface of the yellow stone pillar is full of spikes, and there is a faint stream of colorful light overflowing from the top. It seems that some strange phenomenon has occurred.
"Could it be that some strange treasure was born?!" Zhao Ke's heart froze.
"It's either a strange treasure or a strange phenomenon that we can't afford to offend." Fairy Sijue said solemnly.
This is also what the other monks around are thinking.
"sand"
It was as if someone was crying in the wind, making the sound of a single word.
That's the pronunciation of the word "sha".
The shouting was pitiful. There was a vague and weird feeling that made people's scalp numb, especially the sudden vibrations at the end of the syllables, which made people feel hairy.
"Zhao Lang, let's go back quickly. It's not suitable to stay here for a long time." Fairy Sijue gently pulled Zhao Ke's hand.
"After finally encountering the legendary adventure, why did you take the initiative to retreat? This is an opportunity that most monks will never encounter if they want it. If we give up on our own initiative, it will not be in vain." Zhao Ke became slightly excited.
"Let's wait and see what other monks do first. Then we can follow everyone and take care of them."
"But" Fairy Sijue was a little worried.
"It's okay, don't worry. Maybe this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. We may not encounter it again in the future. If we miss this time, we really have no chance." Zhao Ke was really excited.
Fairy Si Jue saw her partner's eagerness and couldn't object any more.
"Then you have to promise me that you won't go deep alone and let other monks get trapped."
"Okay! I agree!"
"This vision is too strange. I'd better withdraw first. You all can make your own decisions and say goodbye."
At this time, another team leader in the team spoke up.
"Such a vision must contain a rare treasure. Isn't it a pity for me to give up like this?" A man holding a knife frowned.
"Even if it's a rare treasure, I'm afraid we'll be lucky enough to take it with our lives." The man smiled bitterly.
Without saying much, he quickly left with his team.
But before he had gone far, the man suddenly stopped and fell back with an ugly expression.
"Can't get out"
Like him, several people in his team had the same ugly expressions.
Zhao Ke was startled, pulling Si Jue and running in the direction of leaving.
Like him, there are other monks who are with him.
But something strange happened.
Every time he took one more step away from the stone pillar, his heart would beat 10% faster.
After walking for more than ten steps in a row, his heartbeat more than doubled. He was suddenly frightened and had to stop.
"Now we're in trouble." He and Fairy Sijue exchanged glances, and both saw a trace of gloom in the other's eyes. All the excitement just now disappeared.
************************
Yuan Dou Demon Sect.
The high floating Wuding Mountain is quietly suspended above several snow peaks.
The sky is cloudless and clear.
Lin Xin walked slowly on the mountain ground, surrounded by spiked stone pillars.
Each black stone pillar is tied with many black metal chains.
The short one is as tall as a person, and the tall one is twenty or thirty meters tall, which is extremely spectacular.
"This is the most famous crime pillar in Wuding Mountain." Lin Xin was followed by more than thirty people.
A Yi-level master, more than a dozen servants and more than a dozen guards.
Everyone formed a huge team and walked slowly in the desolate area of Wuding Mountain.
"Pillar of Crime and Punishment" Lin Xin reached out and touched a stone pillar. It was cold and a little soft. It looked like hard metal, but it looked unusually soft, like human skin.
"Exactly."
The person responsible for explaining was the woman among the five Yi-level masters, Shuangchizi.
Shuangzizi comes from the Eastern Sect of the Yuandou Demon Sect. He is a long-established veteran master with a powerful family behind him. He is willing to come to the main sect and belong to the new prince. After all, he still has some speculative intentions.
Naturally, he is also extremely enthusiastic about his new master, Lin Xin.
"To be honest with you, Your Highness, the crime pillar is chained, and anyone found guilty by the sect will spontaneously attack. They all have special magical powers similar to traveling through space, and they are part of the defense formation."
Lin Xin nodded and continued walking forward. From time to time he looked at the various uneven stone pillars on both sides.
"By the way, how did you go about what I asked you to do before?"
He suddenly changed the subject.
Twin Wings smiled slightly.
"Don't worry, Your Highness, we all have connections from different families behind us. In this Wuding Mountain, everyone who can come in is not a simple person. There is a network of connections behind us to support us. In this way, the network will be spread out.
It’s unimaginably huge.”
He spoke for a moment.
"Besides, what you want is not too important or rare."
"That's good." Lin Xin nodded, "Although the demon talisman is not an important thing, I am not the only one who needs it, so I'm afraid this matter is not as simple as you think."
"My subordinate understands."
The two of them took the team for another casual tour.
The most famous thing on Wuding Mountain is the Sin Punishment Pillar, followed by the Threaded Spring.
The never-ending whirlpool of spring water, the thread spring is said to have the effect of allowing mortals to cure diseases and prolong life by taking a sip.
As the prince, Lin Xin went in through the guard to check, randomly took a small bag and put it into his storage bag. He also took some and distributed it to everyone.
This thing is not effective for practitioners, but it is perfect for using it as a favor.
In addition, there are other places such as the Princess Palace, Zangfa Hall, Deer Tower and so on. The largest and most spectacular of them is the Ape King's Palace, which is the palace used by Lord Kizaru when he comes back to rest.
But before Lin Xin had time to take a look, he received a piece of news that was neither good nor bad.
I didn’t get the demon talisman seed.
The group returned to the Taiwang Palace.
Shuangchizi, who was in charge of this matter, looked red with shame and lowered his head in shame.
"I did not expect this. I hope Your Highness will forgive me. I am too complacent."
"In such a large area, it's impossible for the sect not to be able to find any of it, right?" Lin Xin frowned.
"After some searching, I found a total of six pieces. After that, I couldn't find any more. These are the ones we collected ourselves to increase our treasure trove." Shuangyizi whispered.
The other four mind levels are all at the level of Jindan monks. The first task Lin Xin gave him was to collect demon talismans. At this time, he returned to the main hall with some shame.
"I am so incompetent that I couldn't complete the first thing His Highness told me. I really feel unworthy of the great trust you have placed in His Highness."
Another male cultivator, Qingtanzi, felt ashamed.
"The strange thing is that I used to often hear that people collected demon talismans, but I didn't expect to actually collect them until I discovered that there were other people collecting them as well."
The old man Huang Sha, one of the five people, frowned and said.
"Not bad." Huan Qinglian, who has a cold temperament and is also one of the five, said. Among the five of them, she looks the coldest. She is not too respectful to Lin Xin like the others, nor is she too alienated.
It is simply the attitude of subordinates towards their superiors.
"If Your Highness is in urgent need, you can issue a prince's order and have the whole sect mobilize to collect it. However, the prince's order can only be used once every ten years," the old man Huangsha layman said seriously.
Lin Xin sat on the throne in the main hall, holding his face with one hand and frowning slightly.
"Can you find out who is also collecting demon talismans?"
"It has been found." Huan Qinglian said calmly, "Because there are not many demon talismans collected, in order to give His Highness an explanation, I have already found clues before."
"Please tell me." Lin Xin looked slightly solemn. There is a high chance that this person who also collects demon talismans is a son of Youfu like him.
Speaking of which, since entering You Mansion, he has never met anyone of the same kind in his own world. Now is a good opportunity to meet other children of You Mansion.
Huan Qinglian seemed to be very prestigious among the five people. As soon as she opened her mouth, the others seemed to be listening.
Upon hearing the inquiry, she raised her hands lightly.
Whoosh!
A white lotus seed suddenly flew out and exploded between Lin Xin and the five people, turning into a soft white circular light curtain.
Something quickly appeared above.
That's an invitation.
Purple red, rectangular, with only a strange rune engraved on it.
The invitation suddenly flew out of the light curtain and flew gently towards Lin Xin.
Reaching out to hold the invitation, Lin Xin glanced at Huan Qinglian, who made an invitation gesture and opened his mouth to explain.
"This is what we found in an abandoned room. The room was rented from my family's practice building. However, no one renewed it when it expired, and no one came to pick up the contents. Later it was confirmed that the owner was missing.
Or he died. It happened that His Highness was collecting demon talismans, and we also found this among his relics. Maybe it is what His Highness needs."
Lin Xin was slightly curious and gently opened the invitation.
There is only one line of text in it.
‘Special invitation to Xia Haiji, Baihua City, Sanyou Cave. A gathering for a hundred days.’ (To be continued.)
