Long Zhenliang felt something bad at this moment, with a look of panic on his face, and kept retreating.
However, the two direct lineage clansmen pressed forward step by step, giving him no chance to summon the earth line vehicle and withdraw from the trial.
Seeing this scene, Long Zhen felt a chill in his conscience, and then frantically took out various talismans and disposable magic weapons from his storage bag, barely blocking the two of them.
However, just when he was about to use his escape technique to escape, a strong force suddenly hit him from his vest.
With a "click" sound, Long Zhenliang's body bent forward in a huge arc, and blood spurted out from his mouth.
"Hmph! Take it back!"
The next moment, Wu Liang's figure appeared nearby. He stretched out his hand and took the Blood King Halberd back into his hand. Long Zhenliang said coldly as he watched it fall towards the ground.
About half an hour later, Long Zhenliang was brought to an oasis.
He saw that a formation had been arranged in the lake in the oasis, and several tribesmen who were familiar with him were soaking feebly in the lake water, with only the upper chest and abdomen exposed.
Realizing that the direct clan member who was escorting him intended to throw him directly away, Long Zhenliang said with difficulty:
"Wait a minute, I want to see Longdong, take me to see him!"
"Brother Dong, you can see me whenever you want. Come on down!"
The direct lineage member immediately snorted coldly and released his palms.
Soon, the sound of "plop" falling into the water was heard, and Long Zhenliang immediately disappeared on the water.
However, after a few breaths, he floated up under the influence of the formation, and gentle spiritual energy slowly surged around him, healing his injuries.
After confirming that the formation was operating normally, the direct lineage member did not stay long and immediately fled in the direction from which he came.
On the other side of the oasis, a shadow in front of Long Dong showed his retreating light...
"Five days have passed, and only six have been caught. When did these wastes from the sidelines become so cautious?"
After waving his hand to disperse the shadow in front of him, Long Dong realized something was wrong and said in a deep voice while touching the Jade Dragon Cup in his hand.
Although the second round of sealed places will not appear until ten days later, five days is enough for them to clear the twelve sealed places in the first round. The trial team that has not advanced into the hinterland at this time is basically
I chose to hibernate until the tenth day.
According to Long Dong's previous speculation, he should have captured at least 11 or 12 branch tribesmen at this time, but now he has only captured half of them.
"Perhaps the young masters and ladies of the direct lineage were too attentive before the trial, which allowed the side branches to see some clues.
However, I believe that the situation will improve on the ninth day, and those side branches will never be able to abandon the treasures in the second round of sealing."
Jiao San didn't feel that the current situation was worth worrying about, so he spoke in a relaxed tone.
"Huh, if something goes wrong, there must be a monster. This time, I not only want to win, but I also want to win beautifully, so I should be careful."
Longdong put down the jade dragon cup, then turned his head slightly and ordered to Jiao San:
"Notify them and ask them to tighten the net even if they give up one or two sealing areas, it doesn't matter."
The failure to capture a few side branches in the past five days shows that they have been operating on the outskirts of the desert these days.
As a result, the only thing they can create, apart from fighting each other to the death, is to unite with each other.
But Long Dong believed in the pressure he brought to these side branches. Unless they were extremely stupid, they would never kill each other before meeting him.
And if we want to prevent the possible combination of these side branches, shrinking the defense line is undoubtedly the most effective strategy!
"Yes, I will take your orders!"
Although Jiao San's thoughts did not change at this time, he still responded without hesitation.
"My eldest son, my third brother has a lot of contempt for those side branches. If I leave this matter to him, I'm afraid it won't make the people below understand the benefits and harms involved."
As soon as Jiao San left, the oldest of the three men in black robes frowned slightly and said.
"Haha, I just want some people to not understand the benefits and harms involved. Otherwise, if everyone is tense, how can the big fish take the bait?
Jiao Da, you will make a trip later to emphasize my order to these ten teams."
Long Dong chuckled lightly and said as if he had a pearl of wisdom in his hand.
The reason why he took this detour was to let some people become bait unknowingly.
After all, except for the three Jiao brothers, the people under him now don't have much loyalty at all. It is simply impossible to make these people willingly serve as bait.
"The eldest son is wise, but his subordinates are too worried."
When Jiao Da heard this, he was suddenly enlightened and immediately raised his hands respectfully.
...
Just when Longdong casually laid a trap, Luo Hong had returned to the stone house built by Li Jun using magic on the floating giant rock.
"Fellow Daoist Luo, how is the situation?"
As soon as he entered the door, Li Jun couldn't wait to greet him and asked.
"As expected, Luo's good friend also has the same thoughts as us, and he is not the only one, there are six other Taoist friends.
Luo Mou has already discussed the plan with them and will launch it after the raid!"
After explaining the situation, Luo Hong saw that Xu Xuechuan and Long Ruiyun had also returned, and couldn't help but ask:
"Xianzi Xu, fellow Taoist Ruiyun, what is the situation of those Long family members now?"
"The general situation is the same as what Long Guang said before. In principle, we let them come and go.
But this only means summoning the Earth Vein Vehicles to give up the trial, and they are not allowed to leave the team, even if they hand over the Dragon Blood Order."
"Well, to be honest, this is enough of a privilege."
Luo Hong nodded slightly and responded.
"Hmph! He is not so lenient with us because of his feelings for the same clan. After all, he still has his own purpose!"
Long Ruiyun was quite unhappy.
"Oh? Could it be that Long Guang still has a way to take advantage of your fellow tribesmen?"
Luo Hong didn't think that Long Guang, who had to rely on poisoning to recruit people, would have such prestige.
In his opinion, the Long family members who are still staying here are just trying to compete with each other for profit.
The combat power they provide is far less than their hidden dangers. It’s better to get rid of them all now!
"Did Fellow Daoist Luo forget the unique role of the Long family in this trial? Only they can control the treasures in the sealed land.
Even if Long Guang has seven or eight sealed treasures, he can only control two at most. After all, these sealed treasures are of extremely high grade.
And if you can make full use of these sealed treasures, you will have a lot more chances of winning when the war comes.
Therefore, Long Guangcai tried his best to win over his own people and wanted them to contribute to him."
Xu Xuechuan explained warmly.
"I see, but why does he rely on it? It's definitely not based on his prestige."
Gu Yan
Luo Hong shook his head and said with a suspicious look on his face.
"It is said that Long Guang signed an extremely strict spiritual contract with them. After defeating Destiny Longzi, he will fight them one-on-one. Whoever wins then will be the winner of this trial!
Brother Luo, do you think this is another trick of his?"
Long Ruiyun has now completely lost trust in Long Guang, so even when she asked her kin, they clearly told her that there was no problem with the spiritual contract, she was still full of doubts.
Correspondingly, she now fully trusted Luo Hong and asked seriously.
This girl still hasn't grown up enough, but fortunately I don't have any bad intentions towards her.
Ha, but her temperament is a bit like that of Green Bamboo. I wonder how they are doing in the human world.
"Luo...Brother Luo?"
Seeing Luo Hong suddenly staring at her blankly, Long Ruiyun's immature face couldn't help but blush, and he shouted like a mosquito.
"Oh, I'm sorry, Luo just thought of other things and was distracted for a moment.
According to what Fellow Taoist Ruiyun said, Luo thinks that there is probably nothing wrong with the spiritual contract. After all, your fellow clan members have all been fooled once, so they must be extremely careful this time.
However, Long Guang would never be so kind. He tried his best to defeat Destiny Longzi, but in the end he simply used a competition to determine the final winner.
It seems to Yi Luo that he is either very confident in his own strength, or..."
Speaking of this, Luo Hong suddenly stopped, and his originally relaxed expression immediately became extremely solemn.
"What's wrong, Fellow Daoist Luo, what's wrong?"
Seeing Luo Hong's appearance, Xu Xuechuan couldn't help but become nervous, and his crossed legs subconsciously tightened a bit.
"If we all die in the end, then the decisive method he has agreed on now will be natural!"
Luo Hong was also startled by this sudden idea, but the more he thought about it, the more it seemed possible.
Normally, if Long Guang could really defeat Fate Longzi's side, there would be at least a dozen foreign aids left.
In this case, Long Ruiyun's kin are naturally the ones who benefit from the spiritual contract.
But think about it carefully, if all the foreign aids like them are dead by then, no one will be left!
Then the beneficiary of the spiritual contract is Long Guang, right?
Good guy, if this is the case, the Long family members who signed the spiritual contract will be helping count the money after being sold. They are so stupid!
"Haha, Fellow Daoist Luo, are you exaggerating? You shouldn't be, right?"
Li Jun said with a trembling voice, obviously he felt it was reasonable, but he didn't want to believe it.
"This is just the worst case scenario and may not happen. We will still act according to the plan discussed by Fellow Daoist Luo and the other side.
However, if anything changes that day, fellow Daoist Li, please don’t blame me."
The friendship between Xu Xuechuan and Li Jun naturally did not reach the level where they could risk each other's lives, so she was putting the ugly words in front of them.
"Actually, Li is very grateful that you two can accompany Li here, and he doesn't dare to ask for too much.
If the worst happens, I can only blame Li for his bad luck, not the two of you!"
Li Jun is a true character, and he can still remain rational in the face of life and death.
Luo Hong didn't say a word at the moment, but he already had concerns in his heart.
...
Five days later, over the Hanhai Desert, forty or fifty rays of light densely passed through the sky, rushing towards the hinterland of the desert like a string of meteors.
Today is the tenth day after the start of the Dragon Blood Trial. In the second round, the locations of a total of seven sealed places will appear on the map of each trial team at the same time.
Without exception, these seven sealed places are all located in the hinterland of the desert, evenly distributed in a ring shape.
And Luo Hong and the others are currently making a surprise attack towards one of the sealed places.
According to Long Guang's plan, they would encounter two or three direct lineage teams, and then easily crush them with their numerical advantage.
If the first battle ends quickly, they will continue to raid the adjacent sealed areas, thus weakening the power of Fate Ryuko's side as much as possible.
The formation arranged by Long Guang was also extremely simple. Ten people in the late stage of divine transformation served as the vanguard of the central army. Except for a few people, including Ke Huiguang, who guarded him, the rest of the monks in the middle stage of divine transformation were divided into two parts, each serving as the left and right wings.
.
As for the seven Long family members who signed the spiritual contract, they were located in front of the Chinese Army Pioneer and Long Guang, and were effectively under guard.
"Fellow Daoist Luo, we are almost there, have you noticed anything with your spiritual consciousness?"
After looking at the map, Xu Xuechuan spoke calmly.
"It's a bit strange. Apart from the Void Refining Beast in the Sealed Land, Luo didn't sense any aura."
Luo Hong had already scanned back and forth with his spiritual consciousness several times, and immediately sent a message to reply.
"There is no trial team of direct lineage? But the sealing place has been broken, and we are too late?"
Li Jun frowned when he heard this and asked anxiously.
After all, their plan was set at the end of the raid. If something goes wrong with the raid, the plan would be greatly affected.
Luo Hong: "The breath of prohibition is still there."
"The ferocious beasts and beast herds near the sealed land in the second round are much more powerful than those in the first round, and the restrictions are also stronger. Perhaps Fate Longzi is also concentrating its efforts on the strategy."
Xu Xuechuan proposed a possibility.
"If this is the case, the intensity of the first raid will far exceed our expectations!"
Li Jun said in a deep voice.
"If you want to execute the plan, you must survive first. Since there is no one in front of us, we might as well take the sealed treasure!"
"Fellow Daoist Li has a good idea. Without further ado, Luo will go and lure away the Void Refining Vicious Beast. Fairy Xu, you go and break the ban and get the treasure!"
In the first round of sealed places, there were treasures such as the three-color phoenix talisman. In the second round, the grade was higher. Even Luo Hong couldn't despise it. Naturally, he wanted to keep it in his own hands.
"Fellow Daoist Luo, the ferocious beast in front must be at a higher level than the Sand Crab King. Are you really okay with it?"
Xu Xuechuan glanced at Luo Hong in surprise.
"Haha, Fairy Xu, don't worry. Luo has already recognized the ferocious beast, and the other party's magical power has just been restrained by Luo. There is no problem in delaying it for an hour or three!"
Luo Hong chuckled and assured confidently.
After saying that, he suddenly increased his escape speed and rushed out of the large army in one fell swoop.
Seeing this, Xu Xuechuan and the others had no chance to say anything else, so they immediately sped up and chased after them.
The movements of the four of them could not escape Long Guang's spiritual sense. At that moment, he couldn't help but feel frightened and angry. He thought that they were defecting before the battle, and he rushed to report the news to the trial team of Dimai.
So, he subconsciously wanted to order someone to chase him, but then he thought about it, if the person who chased him also switched sides, wouldn't it be a greater loss?
What's more, they are almost at the gates of the city now, and there is little point in spreading the news at this time.
Therefore, it is better to be still than to move at this moment. It is safest to make a surprise attack as planned!
