The sound of huge drums penetrated the sky and the earth, and came from the other side, faintly mixed with many fanatical and bloodthirsty sounds. This place is like another world hidden deep in the mountains. No one would have expected it.
The nest of Tianyin Sect is here.
“Incredible!”
Yang Ji looked at the place where the fire broke out, and was shocked in his heart.
No one would have thought that while the imperial court was hunting down the people in the green forest, another powerful force would be hiding near Pingchuan City.
"How can you allow others to snore next to the bed?" These cultists have cut into a blind spot in normal people's thinking. No one would have thought that they would have such courage to set up their lair in this place.
"These lunatics are so bold."
This thought flashed through Yang Ji's mind, and then he used his hands and feet to slither along under the trees in the darkness toward the place where the fire broke out in the distance.
After a while, Yang Ji finally arrived at the place where the fire started.
It was a huge valley surrounded by mountains, with six huge piles of flames distributed in a plum blossom shape. In the blazing firelight, I saw densely packed hundreds of people. These people were kneeling on the ground, arranged in a large and small shape.
The small circle, like a wave, was kneeling towards a dark altar made of white bones in the center. As they knelt down, they crazily chanted an inexplicable language that was not like this world, and their expressions were as crazy as the top.
"唳唳唳! Jie Jie Jie Jie——"
The crazy voice echoed in all directions in the darkness, making people's hair and bones tremble.
As Yang Ji looked, hundreds of strands of black energy continued to emanate from these people, and then merged into a huge rumbling blood light suspended six or seven feet above the altar. Black energy and blood light
Entangled together, like two giant dragons constantly entangled.
"What exactly is this?"
Yang Ji opened his eyes wide and stared at the ball of blood in mid-air in disbelief. The rolling ball of blood gave Yang Ji a very weird feeling. On the one hand, it was gloomy, dark, and evil, but on the other hand, there was something in it.
At the core, Yang Ji felt a bright, holy, and masculine power again.
These two completely opposite forces were constantly clashing and fighting in mid-air. Yang Ji even felt a familiar aura from them.
"It's so strange...what on earth is this?"
Yang Ji thought hard. Suddenly, as if struck by lightning, Yang Ji was shocked and finally remembered.
"Bai Shengming... no, it's Bai Yuanyuan. This aura is exactly the same as Bai Yuanyuan's."
Although the time that Yang Ji and Bai Yuanyuan got together was short, they went through life and death in the martial arts palace. The aura of Bai Yuanyuan left a very deep impression on him.
Although the aura deep inside the mass of blood was weak, it was exactly the same as the one on Bai Yuanyuan's body.
"His!"
Yang Ji took a breath and felt a chill rising from the soles of his feet, along his back, and then trembled to the top of his head.
"What do these people want to do?"
Yang Ji was shocked. At this moment, the scenes in Jin'an City and the Martial Palace passed through his mind like lightning, from the encounter with the Tianyin Sect's solicitation in the streets outside the Yang clan, to what he heard in the Martial Palace.
Fanatic shouting... all this scene flashed through my mind like a fleeting glance.
At this moment, Yang Ji felt like he had captured something, but he almost missed something and couldn't capture anything.
That feeling is excruciating.
At this moment, a dark, violent, and terrifying roar suddenly came from the forest.
"Roar!--"
The earth shook and the sky shook, and the feeling that Yang Ji had experienced came from under his feet. The whole mountain trembled, as if it had been hit by a huge impact from an invisible force.
Yang Ji was startled. He raised his head and followed the direction of the sound. He crossed the valley and saw a huge mountain peak on the opposite side. Halfway up the mountain. Yang Ji saw a huge cave with more than ten people in it.
It was ten feet high, with green flames bursting out from it, and thick smoke even spewing out from it.
It was so far away in the darkness that Yang Ji couldn't see clearly. But he could feel an evil, dark and extremely powerful breath of life from that weird cave, as if there was a huge ferocious beast hidden inside.
Same.
"Roar!--"
There was another huge roar, and this time the mountains shook even more violently. Mixed with the heavy sound of chains rattling, there were also the sounds of people screaming, cursing, and yelling.
"boom!"
The earth shook, and a giant claw as thick as a water tank, burning with green flames, stretched out from the cave opposite and hit the ground heavily.
scare!
Yang Ji trembled and was startled. This was actually a giant beast. Yang Ji had never seen such a big beast before. Just one claw was thicker than a human waist.
Its body... is unimaginable!
"What the hell is this? Where did they get this creature from!"
Yang Ji was secretly shocked.
In the darkness, the giant claw was very eye-catching, flowing with sulfur, thick smoke, and a strange green liquid. It didn't look like a normal creature in this world at all.
"It's so weird."
Yang Ji looked forward and muttered to himself.
The wind roared in my ears, the mysterious cave in the distance was filled with people, and there were faint shouts and curses. The huge claw finally retracted.
Yang Ji took a deep breath and came back to his senses. He glanced at the valley below again. There were many figures in the darkness, and countless tyrannical auras were hidden in it.
There is no doubt that this is a nest of the Tianyin Sect in Pingchuan County. Eight years ago, the court had just eliminated one evil, but in the blink of an eye, another one appeared, and it actually grew to this point.
"The situation here is beyond my ability and cannot be dealt with. I must tell the court that only the court can deal with them!"
Yang Ji glanced at the sky. It would be dawn in about an hour. Once the sky was completely bright, there was a high chance that Yang Ji would be discovered by them and he could no longer stay here.
"Walk!"
Yang Ji quietly retreated, and after a moment he leaned close to the ground and immediately scurried away in the direction of Pingchuan City.
With the wind and lightning all the way, Yang Ji took a long detour and ran to Guan Road, and then ran straight along the avenue. By the time he arrived at Pingchuan City, it was already bright.
The gate of Pingchuan City has been opened at this time, and a day of letting go of the old and embracing the new has begun.
Yang Ji didn't stop and didn't go back to his new residence in Pingchuan City. Instead, he went directly to the city lord's palace. This kind of important matter cannot be said by Yang Ji alone. It takes a strong person to win the trust of the court.
"What! You said you found traces of cultists!"
In the city lord's palace, Lu Ling had a look of shock on her face after listening to Yang Ji's words. Last time, after she told the court what Yang Ji had said, the court actually made some moves, but found nothing at all.
The whereabouts of cultists are strange and not easy to detect at all.
But now, Yang Ji actually said that he had discovered a nest of cultists.
"Yang Ji, do you know what your rebuttal means? The court has not found any tangible evidence of a cult in more than eight years, let alone one of the scale you mentioned."
Lu Ling said.
"This is what I saw with my own eyes, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with it."
Yang Jidao.
"I'm not doubting you."
Lu Ling waved his hand:
"If this incident is true, it will cause a huge shock in Pingchuan County. Moreover, if it is of the scale you said, it cannot be eliminated by a small army. - You must tell General Qin. Yang Ji, you and me
Come on, leave now!"
Lu Ling's expression was solemn, and without saying a word, he pulled Yang Ji and ran directly out of the city lord's mansion and towards the general's mansion.
Lu Ling didn't need to report his identity at all. He took Yang Ji and met Zhenyuan General "Qin Yan" directly in the general's mansion.
"Lu Ling, you said you have traces of cultists? But didn't you say that last time?"
Qin Yan sat high up, supporting his chin with one hand, but after listening to Lu Ling's words, he frowned imperceptibly.
During these days, there have been sporadic traces of cultists, but there is no concrete evidence. In his heart, Qin Yan does not believe that there is any established cult.
At best, they are just the remnants of the cult that perished eight years ago. He led the army to annihilate it himself back then.
"Yang Ji, it's up to you to speak."
Lu Ling didn't say much and turned to look at Yang Jidao. This was a great achievement of great importance. If what Yang Ji said was true, not only Yang Ji could be recommended by the imperial court and get rid of Yang Xuanlan's suppression, but also the city lord's palace, the general
Everyone in the government will be rewarded by the court!
Yang Ji nodded, thought for a moment, and then described his findings in detail.
"That's an abyss monster!"
After listening to Yang Ji's narration, Qin Yan's expression was extremely solemn. Yang Ji just described the appearance of a huge one, and he immediately knew that Yang Ji was not lying.
The monsters in the abyss are things that come from an alien space and are not a product of this world at all. This is not something that a sixteen-year-old boy who has never been to a small frontier place can make up.
Eight years ago, even though that cult had a large number of people, there was no such thing!
If Qin Yan was a little doubtful before, now he is absolutely sure that Yang Ji is telling the truth.
"It's been eight years. I didn't expect these guys to make a comeback, and they're right on the edge of Pingchuan City. They're so brave!"
Qin Yan grabbed the bronze handrails with both hands and stood up suddenly. At this moment, the entire hall was shaking, as if bearing the anger of General Zhenyuan.
Eight years later, another cult has arisen, right under his nose. For Qin Yan, this is a naked offense and shame.
"Yang Ji, do you remember the location of that nest?"
Qin Yan said in a deep voice.
"Remember."
Yang Ji took out a pen and paper and immediately traced the location of the nest in the palace. These were prepared by the city lord's palace, and Yang Ji knew they would be useful a long time ago.
Yang Ji has a photographic memory, and even at night, the location drawn will not be too far off. Soon, Yang Ji painted the detailed location. (To be continued...)
