Many years later, in a sea area east of Feng Yuan Continent, a group of monsters were fighting with a huge sea beast.
These monsters are all strange birds with red wings. Only the leader, a man and a woman, have developed a human form, and the rest of the dozens of their kind have not yet opened their spiritual intelligence.
At this time, above the sea surface, more than a dozen gray tentacles more than ten feet long were dancing wildly. As long as the suckers were retracted, they could shoot water arrows with amazing power.
If it were to fire in one salvo, the side of the red strange bird would definitely suffer heavy losses.
Fortunately, the ordinary strange birds obeyed the orders abnormally, and at this moment they kept spitting fireballs to restrain these tentacles, preventing them from exerting their full power.
The male and female demon cultivators each held a bone fork and continuously cast spells to shoot out red thunder one after another, blasting the centers of the tentacles.
As if it was hurt by the attack of the two demons, the ancient beast hidden under the sea suddenly roared, and a huge squid head broke out of the water.
A flash of light flashed above his head, and a gray glow swayed out, instantly enveloping all the strange red birds!
As soon as these strange birds fell into the gray glow, their originally nimble wings seemed to be carrying a heavy weight, and they flapped with great difficulty.
Therefore, they were unable to stabilize their bodies at the moment, and then the gray glow rolled up and dragged them all into the giant mouth of the ancient squid beast below.
When the male and female demon cultivators saw this, their faces immediately showed anxious expressions, and they didn't know what secret technique they had used, but they actually joined their respective bones together.
Immediately, the two demons spit out the demon pill at the same time, and with all their strength, a red thunder as thick as a millstone crashed down.
This red thunder split open the ancient squid beast's body-protecting aura with great force, and hit it hard on the head.
With a "boom" sound, most of the ancient squid's huge head was immediately smashed into pieces, and light gray juice sprayed out, immediately changing the color of the seawater for miles around.
However, this ancient squid beast has extremely strong vitality. It can still move even if half of its head is missing. It can escape into the deep sea as soon as its many tentacles are retracted.
The strange birds that regarded it as prey would not just watch it escape. They immediately waved their wings and sent out a stream of wind threads, tightly entangling the tentacles of the ancient squid beast.
Then, they grabbed the wind thread with their claws and flapped their wings together to fly high into the sky.
The ancient squid beast sensed the crisis and immediately dived desperately into the deep sea. The two sides fell into a stalemate for a while.
After a few breaths, the two demon cultivators, a man and a woman, finally regained their composure. Seeing this, they couldn't help but laugh ferociously, and with a wave of their hands, they struck the bone fork and dived downwards.
At this moment, Er Yao suddenly caught a glimpse of a bright aura from the corner of his eye.
Before they could react, a five-color lightsaber rushed into the group of red strange birds, cutting all the red strange birds into pieces.
As soon as the red strange bird died, the ancient squid immediately swam a hundred feet below the sea surface, but before it could get happy, a five-colored glow enveloped it.
I saw the five-color glow flickering slightly, and the five elements of spiritual energy in the ancient squid beast's body surged out wildly, and within a few breaths, it turned into a corpse.
Seeing the tragic death of their tribe, the two demons were immediately shocked and furious, but then they saw that the other party casually wiped out the ancient beast they had fought for a long time to capture. A look of horror immediately appeared on their faces. They flapped their wings behind their backs and were about to
Escape from this place.
"If you two little demons don't want to die, stay with Jie!"
With a flash of five-colored light, a human figure blocked the two demons' escape route.
"Intermediate Flying Spirit General!"
Sensing the aura of the person who was blocking her, the female demon cultivator couldn't help but swallow her saliva, and her saliva became dry.
"This senior of the Wuguang Clan, I wonder if the two juniors can do anything for you?"
Knowing that he could not escape, the male demon cultivator immediately raised his hands in fear and asked.
But before the other party could speak, four more spiritual lights flashed through, and four more flying spirit generals with five-color light wings on their backs appeared, surrounding the two demons.
"You have some wisdom. Xie asked you, have you seen people from the Tianpeng tribe or the Chirong tribe passing through this sea area in the past few days?"
The Wuguang Clan monk who arrived first asked in a deep voice.
In the spiritual world, the so-called monsters and ancient beasts are actually just a rough classification.
Generally speaking, ancient beasts refer to animal creatures native to the spiritual world.
Monsters, on the other hand, mostly refer to the race of beasts bred by demon cultivators who ascended from the lower world.
But the two are not absolute. The main difference is that the ancient beasts cannot activate their spiritual intelligence in their lifetime, but they can have one or several powerful innate magical powers.
Monster beasts are just the opposite. As long as they are not of those special species, they can generally activate spiritual intelligence, but the power of their innate magical powers is much worse than that of ancient beasts.
Therefore, even though they were both Nascent Soul cultivators, the two demons had to work together and bring a group of subordinates to deal with the ancient squid beast.
Therefore, General Jie Fei Ling killed the ancient squid beast without thinking, but left the two demons behind to question him.
"No, we didn't see anything."
The female demon cultivator blurted out.
Hearing this, the male demon cultivator's expression immediately changed. He raised his head and looked at General Jie Feiling. Sure enough, he saw murderous intent on his face, so he quickly said:
"I've seen it before! My wife was so frightened that she didn't think of it. We had seen a group of seniors from the Tianpeng tribe heading to the southwest before!"
"Hmph! You dare to play tricks on Xie. The Tianpeng clan has too much time to take care of themselves. How could they take the initiative to provoke this clan!
That’s it, you two do it!”
General Jie Fei Ling sneered and gave instructions to his two companions on the side.
The two men heard this without saying a word, and each shot out a ray of light to capture the two demons in front of them. As soon as they gathered their magic power, they performed the soul-searching technique.
After a burst of shrill screams, one of them took the lead in throwing away the male demon cultivator whose soul was shattered, and cupped his hands and said:
"Reporting to the Holy Son, my subordinates have found no clues about the thief who captured the Mulinghua."
"The same goes for my subordinates."
The other person also responded a little slower.
When the Holy Son named Jie heard this, his expression suddenly became extremely ugly. It turned out that he was the Holy Son of Five Lights who was stationed on a nearby island, and his duty was to guard the Mu Linghua, which was crucial to the cultivation of the Feiling Tribe.
This kind of spiritual flower can only appear on the spiritual island in a specific environment, and this sea area happens to be located in the middle of the territory of the Tianpeng tribe and the Chirong tribe. Previously, there were incidents where the flying spirits of the Chirong tribe would seize the wood bell flower.
, so the Wuguang Clan has always had the habit of sending the Holy Son to take charge.
Based on past experience, if a certain Holy Son loses a large number of wood bell flowers during his term of office, he may be deemed uncultivated by the clan elders and be deprived of his status as a Holy Son!
Although the male demon cultivator was a little quick-witted, he didn't know that the Wuguang Clan and the Tianpeng Clan had always been on good terms, so this matter could not have been done by the Flying Spirit General of the Tianpeng Clan.
After all, the Chirong clan, which borders both of them, is the third main branch of the Feiling clan.
The Wuguang Clan and the Tianpeng Clan are both the lower-ranked main branches. Only by joining a group to keep warm can they have some ability to compete.
Moreover, in the past few hundred years, the Chirong tribe has been targeting the Tianpeng tribe, trying to force them out of the main branch and then annex them.
Therefore, the Tianpeng clan will only need the Wuguang clan as an ally even more now, and it is impossible to ruin the clan's big plan just for a few wood bell flowers!
"Holy Son, the Soul Locking Plate has detected several more spiritual power fluctuations, we"
A member of the Wuguang tribe held a jade plate and said.
"You guys split up and go check it out. It's taken so long that you probably won't be able to catch up, but at least you have to know who did this!"
The Holy Son named Jie ordered with a solemn expression.
"Subordinates take orders!"
The four flying spirit generals of the Five Light Clan responded in unison, and then each turned into a ray of light and went in different directions.
Seeing the four people's escaping light quickly disappearing into the horizon, Holy Son Jie suddenly showed a ferocious look on his face and said to himself:
"Damn it, this happened during my term of office. Although not many wood bell flowers were lost, those few will definitely not let me go easily!
If you don’t believe me, I have to make plans early and inform Senior Kong about this first!”
After secretly cursing his bad luck, Holy Son Jie set up his escape light and headed towards the direction from which he came.
But just as he turned around, his eyes suddenly widened and he looked towards his chest with disbelief.
I saw several red lines slowly appearing on his chest, and the spiritual light on his body quickly dimmed.
"Uh-huh"
He seemed to want to say something, but the blood pouring out of his mouth prevented him from even uttering a complete word.
It turns out that those Gale Birds felt this way before. Before his vision dimmed, this thought flashed through the mind of Saint Xie.
The next moment, his body that was about to be shattered suddenly exploded into a large cloud of blood mist, and the turbulent spiritual waves stirred up hundreds of feet of waves on the sea.
At this time, an undetectable ray of light flew out of the blood mist and headed straight towards the bottom of the sea.
In this escaping light is none other than the Nascent Soul named Holy Son Jie!
He knew very well that the existence that could kill him silently could not miss his Nascent Soul.
The fact that he is still alive can only mean that the other party did it intentionally, and his purpose is probably to search for his soul!
Unexpectedly, he had just ordered people to search the souls of two demon cultivators in disguise, and this kind of misfortune would hang over his head.
Thinking of this, the escape speed of Yuanying, the Holy Son named Jie, couldn't help but become even faster!
However, before he could touch the sea, a dark wind hit him from above.
When he looked up, he saw a huge black ghost hand covering the entire sea area, and then a strong suction force came from him, causing him to fly towards the palm of the ghost hand involuntarily.
"Senior, please spare your life! I am the Holy Son of Five Lights. It is easy to kill me. Please think carefully about the trouble that will follow!"
The Wuguang Clan only sent a group of flying spirit generals to guard this sea area. Naturally, they were sure that no beings above the flying spirit generals would intrude.
Because this sea area is shrouded in a spirit-locking formation, no aura above the level of a flying spirit general can escape its induction.
If you use the Soul Locking Plate, you can sense the auras of the flying spiritual masters and Nascent Soul level who are 30,000 miles away.
Once the formation senses the presence of Fei Lingshuai in this sea area, it will automatically send a message to the clan, and then Fei Lingshuai from the Wuguang Clan will come to support.
Although Holy Son Jie didn't know how the Fei Lingshuai who was attacking him could escape the induction of the Soul Locking Formation, he knew that reinforcements were definitely on the way.
However, after he spoke, the suction force coming from the top of his head not only did not weaken in the slightest, but a strange gray wind also surged out.
This gray strange wind just lightly touched the protective spiritual light on his body, causing it to quickly melt away.
Suddenly, his ability to resist the suction force was greatly reduced, and his body flew towards the black energy ghost's hand with a "swish".
"Jiuli Jiefeng! You are from the Jiuyue tribe"
Amidst the exclamations, the Nascent Soul named Jie Shengzi disappeared into the thick black air of the ghost hand.
The next moment, the black spirit ghost hand suddenly disappeared, leaving only a figure with the same five-color light wings on its back.
As the death energy in his right hand surged, Luo Hong's face and figure gradually changed, and not long after, the "Holy Son Jie" reappeared in the world.
Looking at the corpses floating on the sea, Luo Hong waved his hand and released a wave of blue and white fire.
After burning the corpse cleanly in the blink of an eye, the blue and white spiritual flame turned into a fire wolf, and returned to Luo Hong in a flash. He opened his mouth and spit out a blood ball with five colors of spiritual light.
Luo Hong took the blood ball in front of him, and after firing a few spells, the blood ball split into two, and each was submerged into the two five-color light wings he transformed.
After a while, not only Luo Hong's appearance and body shape, but also her aura became exactly the same as that of the Holy Son with the surname Xie.
At this time, Luo Hong turned his palms and offered up a jade mirror, formed some complicated spells with his hands and pointed towards it.
Suddenly, water ripples began to flow on the surface of the jade mirror, and soon the face of the fish shop owner appeared on it.
"Very good, it looks like you succeeded!"
"This Jieyuan is only as powerful as a high-level flying spirit general, so Luo will definitely not miss it.
However, Luo just looked at his memory, and this person's situation is a bit troublesome. Are you sure that he is the best candidate?"
It turns out that Luo Hong was behind the kidnapping of the Mulinghua from the beginning to the end, and the purpose was to draw out Jieyuan who was stationed here so that he could be killed and replaced.
This person has an extremely ruthless personality and likes to bully the weak and slaughter his subordinates.
Killing him would not put Luo Hong under any psychological pressure.
However, this guy seemed to be at odds with several other Five Light Saint Sons because of his birth, and they would have conflicts with each other from time to time. Luo Hong couldn't help but feel dissatisfied.
"I can understand Fellow Daoist Luo's concerns, but this Jieyuan is the only Holy Son who does not have a close backing in the clan, and there is no other high-level existence in the family, so in his place, the possibility of Fellow Daoist revealing his secrets is the lowest.
.
As for those Holy Sons who are likely to cause trouble, we can only ask Fellow Daoist Luo to be patient."
The fish shop owner smiled apologetically.
Not only does this guy have no high-level relatives, he also has no high-level friends due to his temperament.
Such a lonely person is indeed a good candidate to take over.
But Luo Hong still wants to take advantage of this hundred years of waiting time to study Qingluo Fruit, so naturally he doesn't want people to trouble him all the time.
"Luo is not good at being patient. Don't worry, senior, I will solve this matter!"
Luo Hong's face looked slightly cold at the moment and he said.
"this"
The fish shop owner wanted to persuade him, but seeing Luo Hong's determined look, he could only lament:
"Please don't go too far, Fellow Daoist Luo. If your identity is exposed, it will do no good to you or me!"
"Luo has his own sense of discretion. From now on, you and I will try to have as little contact as possible to avoid being noticed."
After saying that, Luo Hong put away the jade mirror and fled towards Jieyuan's cave.
