Hearing Wang Mufeng's answer, Qin Yun couldn't help but be stunned.
Wang Mufeng's face was gloomy, and he said slowly: "Qin Yun, you have not been a member of the Sword Sect for a long time. You don't know the importance of the Yuquan Mine, nor do you understand the consequences of losing the Yuquan Mine!"
The spiritual jade, black iron, fine gold and other materials produced by the Yuquan Mine are all supplied to the Tiancheng Sword Sect. The sect relies heavily on the Yuquan Mine in terms of casting, weapon refining, talisman making, etc. It can be said that there is no
Supported by the astonishing profits obtained from the mines every year, the Tiancheng Sword Sect cannot be as prosperous and powerful as it is today.
This time Youyuan Wumen and Mobei Yangmingjiao teamed up with Wexe Tiancheng Sword Sect. The Sword Sect went all out to prepare for the war and invited allies. It also required staggering expenses and expenditures. It was impossible to let others help for free.
As a result, the role of Yuquan Mine has become more prominent.[
Under such circumstances, the Wu Clan and the Yangming Sect captured the Yuquan Mine, which definitely hit the Sword Sect's core.
It's not that the Tiancheng Sword Sect doesn't pay attention to the Yuquan Mine, it's just that they never expected that the mine's fortress would fall in just one day due to its tight defense. The situation was so severe that it could be said to be unprecedented.
"Time is not waiting for me!" Wang Mufeng said coldly: "The Wumen and the Yangming Sect may not want to take over the Yuquan Mine as their own. Their real purpose is probably to destroy the mine so that we can't get the spiritual jade and the
Ore, if Elder Zuo and the others hadn’t put down the Dragon Breaking Stone to seal the mine, I’m afraid they would have succeeded by now!”
Qin Yun suddenly understood. If the two sides were two armies facing a decisive battle, then what the Wumen side was doing was to use the Broken Sword Sect's food and grass. That's why after Wubao fell yesterday, they couldn't wait to dig holes in the mountains.
Break into the mine.
"So we must not return to the sect. Instead, we should speed up to the Yuquan Mine and stop the enemy's conspiracy at all costs!" Wang Mufeng continued: "Of course I can immediately send a message to the sect and ask the ancestor of the sect's magical powers to come.
Reinforcements, I believe we will be able to repel the enemy!"
He stared at Qin Yun: "Qin Yun, are you willing to fight side by side with me?"
Qin Yun took a long breath, clasped his fists and said in a deep voice: "Disciple is willing!"
Wang Mufeng showed a mny smile on his face, nodded and said: "Okay, let's go!"
The two left the peak and returned to the mountain road together. The support team from the Sword Sect rushed to join them. There were three hundred people in this support army, including Wang Mufeng and three other Huagang elders sent by the main peak. They had over a hundred sword cultivators in the Xiantian realm.
, strong enough to easily destroy a leftist sect.
The other two hundred sect warriors in the Qi Refining Realm were all wearing heavy armor and swords, and were carrying long bows and were fully armed!
The team carried falcons specially used to transmit information. Wang Mufeng asked everyone to take a break, and he handwritten a secret message and tied it to the talons of the eagle, and asked the spiritual bird to take it back to the sect to report.
After resting for a while, the team continued to move forward. The speed was much faster than before.
What surprised Qin Yun was that the two hundred sect warriors in the Qi Refining Realm were actually able to keep up with the Xiantian Realm sword cultivators. Everyone was silent and ran all the way on the steep and rugged mountain road. The team was not scattered at all, and even more
No one is left behind. In the army, they are definitely the best among the best.
After half an hour of driving, a dangerous peak towering into the clouds appeared in front of us. The mountain road curved and extended into a narrow canyon, which looked extremely steep.
Wang Mufeng raised his left arm to signal the team to stop. He said to Qin Yun and the other two sect elders: "There is a thin line of sky in front of us. Yesterday, the sect's team escorting supplies was attacked here. We have to
Defend!"
An elder surnamed Chen said: "My senior brother and I will go to the mountains on both sides to take a look. Please be careful."
As soon as he finished speaking, he and another elder named Li moved left and right towards the peaks on both sides of the canyon, and disappeared in the dense forest in the blink of an eye.
Qin Yun knew that the two of them were going above to check if there was any enemy ambush, so he said to Wang Mufeng with a thought in his heart: "Elder Wang, I will also go to the front to take a look."
Wang Mufeng nodded and said: "Okay, then you have to be careful and get back immediately if you encounter any danger." [
After receiving his permission, Qin Yun immediately left the team and entered the canyon first.
This canyon is worthy of the name "Line of Sky". At its narrowest point, it can only accommodate two people walking side by side. Looking up, the cliffs are as steep as a hundred feet high, and you can barely see a white line belonging to the sky.
Mountain springs and melted snow water splashed down from the heights of the cliffs, splashing onto the slippery mountain path. Qin Yun walked about two to three hundred steps, and the front became much more open.
But the scene that appeared in front of him made Qin Yun's heart suddenly sink.
Dozens of corpses were seen scattered on the mountain road, most of them with missing limbs. There were rocks smashed down from high places everywhere. There was a strong smell of blood in the air, indicating that a fierce battle had broken out here.
From the clothes of the corpses, Qin Yun could easily tell that these people were fellow sects of the Tiancheng Sword Sect. They were obviously the same team that was attacked by the enemy yesterday.
The scene had obviously been cleaned up. No materials such as the jade ore escorted by the team could be seen, and no corpses of enemies were found. Many Sword Sect disciples still maintained their fighting postures. The scene was so tragic that people could not bear to witness it.
A disciple of the Sword Sect was half-leaning on the rock, with a big hole ripped open in his chest. He held a broken heavy sword tightly in both hands, and raised it high, but there was no chance to cut it down.
Qin Yun slowly walked up to the other party and stretched out his hand to smooth the other party's angry eyes. Although he was used to seeing life and death, he was still filled with rage in his heart.
There were soft footsteps behind him, and Wang Mufeng led the team to catch up.
When they saw the tragic situation in the canyon, they couldn't help but let out a roar. Many swordsmen from the sect even drew their swords out of their sheaths and roared like thunder. The canyon mountain road suddenly became filled with murderous intent.
Wang Mufeng's face turned extremely ugly, and he shouted: "I will not be a man if I don't avenge this! Let's go!"
Ouch!~
As soon as he finished speaking, a cold and long howl suddenly came from the end of the canyon ahead. It sounded like the howl of some kind of monster, and there was an indescribable ferocity in the voice.
The next moment, there was a slight vibration on the ground, which became stronger and stronger. Many gravels were shaken down from the cliffs on both sides of the canyon, as if there were thousands of troops charging ahead!
Wang Mufeng's expression changed, his eyes revealed a terrifying light, and he shouted: "Get ready to fight!"
There is no doubt that this was an ambush set by the enemy, but the enemy's forces were not deployed on the mountain, so the two elders in charge of the search did not issue a warning.
In just a moment, a large group of monsters appeared at the end of the canyon. They rushed forward like crazy, squeezing the entire mountain road to a crawl!
Among them, several large copper-skinned rhinoceroses rushed to the front. If the second half of the canyon was not relatively wide, it would not be able to accommodate even one rhinoceros.
They lowered their heads and spread out their four hooves, as if their rhinoceros hides were wrapped in heavy armor with flaring muscles. Their thick limbs erupted with astonishing strength. Every time they leaped and fell, the ground made an overwhelming trembling sound.
What's frightening is that the speed of these three ferocious beasts is no less than that of a galloping horse. Their six bull eyes glow with a strange red light, and their sharp dark golden horns point diagonally forward, rumbling towards Qin Yun's team.
Crush it over.
Behind the three copper-skinned rhinos, there were hundreds of giant wolf beasts that should never have appeared at this time. Their long bloody tongues and fangs were exposed, and their low roars swept through the canyon like winter thunder.
Pass.[
In an instant, the beasts rushed so close that they were no more than 200 steps away from Qin Yun and others.
Seeing such a scene, Wang Mufeng shouted decisively: "Fire the arrow!"
When he just shouted "Get ready to fight", the two hundred sect warriors all took off their long bows and held them in their hands. After hearing Wang Mufeng's order, they immediately drew up their long bows, nocked arrows and pointed them at the beasts in front of them.
Shot it over.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Two hundred feathered arrows formed a dense rain of arrows in the air, passing nearly two hundred steps away in an instant, and fell towards the monster beasts.
The sect warriors trained by the Tiancheng Sword Sect all come from Xuanwu City and are the most loyal to the sect. They entered the Sword Sect for strict training and training since childhood. Although their realm cultivation is not very high, their combat power is very strong, and
Good at using various weapons.
Bows and arrows are one of their most important weapons. Liushi's strong bow has a range of more than 400 steps. Armor-piercing arrows shot within 200 steps can easily penetrate iron armor. Two hundred bows and arrows fired at the same time are enough to kill an innate
Master.
Ouch!
Suddenly, there was a howling sound among the beasts. A dozen giant wolves were shot by armor-piercing arrows, and they immediately screamed and rolled to the ground. The originally neat charging formation was in chaos.
However, these giant wolves were not the primary attack targets of the sect warriors. They were only affected by the rain of arrows. The real targets, the three copper-skinned rhinos, were intercepted by the volley of armor-piercing arrows and continued to charge without any damage.
These copper-skinned rhinos have extremely strong defenses. Armor-piercing arrows that can penetrate heavy armor were shot at them, and they were shot away with a "ding-dong-dang" sound. The metal arrows made of black iron broke and failed to penetrate even half a point.
.
In just a few breaths, the copper-skinned rhinoceros rushed closer to fifty steps, and was only over a hundred steps away from Qin Yun and others.
Wang Mufeng snorted coldly, drew his sword and prepared to charge forward to fight.
If three powerful copper-skinned rhinoceros were to forcefully bump into the team, serious consequences would inevitably occur. Wang Mufeng would never tolerate such a thing happening.
But before he could take action, a brilliant sword energy came first and penetrated a hundred steps in an instant, striking down hard on the copper-skinned rhinoceros that was rushing in front!
The copper-skinned rhinoceros continued to run forward for seven or eight steps, and its huge body, weighing one or two thousand kilograms, suddenly split neatly into two halves, and the thick skin penetrated by sharp arrows seemed like paper!
I wish everyone a happy Mid-Autumn Festival and family reunion! (To be continued...)
