In the center of Ghost Valley, in front of a towering mountain peak, four figures were fighting each other, one big and one small, one man and one barbarian!
"Jie Jie, it's been a long time since I've seen such a tender two-legged sheep. It's time for us brothers to enjoy such a treat today!"
The ugly and ferocious lizard roared wildly with its big mouth grinning. The chains in its hands swept across and buzzed. With its strong defense, Chen Yuehua was forced to retreat step by step. Summit 23S.
Fastest update
On the other side, Shen Xiaolan's situation was not much better. If it hadn't been for her recent breakthrough, she would have been captured by such a peak barbarian.
Seriously speaking, there is not much difference in strength between the two sides. The two women rely on their agility and agility, while the two barbarians are rough-skinned and thick-flesh, and neither of them can do anything to defeat them.
It was just that the two women were distracted, worried about Wu Ming's safety, and also had to be on guard against whether there were other demons and barbarians lurking around. They were unable to use their sharp methods for a while, so they were forced to feel a little embarrassed.
At this time, seven or eight miles away from the mountain peak, densely packed ghosts gathered together. Where was the shadow of Wu Ming?
"Jie Jie, you should worry about yourself!"
Another lizard laughed wildly, and swept its long tail across. The barbs of its scales stood up, and a blazing stream of light flashed, covering several feet in radius.
Even though Shen Xiaolan was extremely agile, she was forced to dodge in a panic and almost burned her clothes.
"Yue Lian, if you still have exotic treasures, stop hiding them. If something happens to your senior brother, without his help, you alone will never be able to complete the mission!"
Shen Xiaolan shouted anxiously.
"If I had a treasure, why would I wait until now?"
Chen Yuehua was like a ghost, lingering around the lizard. There was a hint of joy and coldness in her eyes as she looked back from time to time, and there was also a hint of hesitation that even she didn't want to admit.
For her, if Wu Ming dies, he will be punished if he fails to complete the task, but Luo Lianmen will also eliminate a major enemy.
What's more, although she didn't know the ultimate goal of cooperating with several major forces, she vaguely guessed some possibilities.
If this is true, the rewards from this trip will definitely be far beyond imagination.
All in all, the benefits of Wu Ming's death outweigh the disadvantages!
As for the oath between the two parties, she didn't do anything to harm it. It was purely Wu Ming who used himself as bait. No one can blame him!
"you……"
Shen Xiaolan was furious, but there was nothing she could do against Chen Yuehua. This woman was so scheming, how could she be gullible!
Rumble!
Just as the two lizards were preparing to continue their efforts and use powerful methods to attack the two women, a sudden thunder struck, causing both parties to separate with a tacit understanding, and looked at the thunderclouds rising in the distance in confusion.
"Thunder Flame Thunderbolt!"
Shen Xiaolan's pretty face turned pale and her delicate body trembled.
Even the walking armor could not resist the blow of this treasure. Wu Ming died together with the soul demon!
"You look pretty smart, why did you make such a stupid decision?"
Chen Yuehua's eyes flashed with complexity, suppressing the discomfort in her heart.
"Hahaha, your helper won't come, you should die!"
The lizard man was overjoyed, and while the two women were distracted, they all attacked together, with three points greater strength than before.
It can be seen that the two of them have no special bloodline, and their strength is only slightly better than that of ordinary peak-level warriors.
But even so, the power of a full-strength attack should not be underestimated. It actually pushed the two women who were caught off guard into danger instantly.
At this moment, a long roar suddenly came from the distance. Although it sounded a little weak, it conveyed an unconcealed fierceness and courage!
"Senior brother is still alive!"
Shen Xiaolan was greatly shocked, her eyes were filled with joy, and she used her sword skills with all her strength.
"You are really lucky!"
Chen Yuehua murmured secretly, feeling relieved and concentrating on dealing with it.
"hateful!"
The battle continued for a long time, and the two lizards became more and more anxious.
Not far away, in a large pit with a radius of a hundred feet, Wu Ming was wearing a walking armor, with astonishing arcs of electricity and fire flashing all over his body, and he staggered up from the pit.
"Huhu, I didn't expect that it was only supported by the treasure of the Golden Scale Demon King!"
Wu Ming gasped for breath and slowly opened his right hand. A red-gold scale inside it flashed with brilliance, which was exactly what he had obtained from Su Bingcheng.
Before activating the thunderbolt, he activated this treasure, and with the help of Bu Renjia's super defense, he was able to withstand the attack.
According to calculations, if Su Bingcheng was not too confident and did not activate this treasure in the first time, or did not have time to maximize its power, Pilizi might not be able to do anything to him.
If the Golden Scale Demon King knew that Wu Ming relied on the protective treasures he gave them to survive, he might be so angry that he would vomit blood!
"Huh? This is..."
As he was about to leave, Wu Ming saw a glimmer of light on the ground out of the corner of his eye. He reached out and dug out a dark crystal the size of a walnut. His eyes narrowed slightly, "Could it be a soul crystal?"
As the name suggests, it is a crystallized treasure condensed from pure soul power, and is a specialty of Ghost Valley.
It's just that this treasure is rare, even the second-level peak ghost may not be able to have it, and the chance of the soul demon dying is not high, at most only 30%.
The use of soul crystals flashed through Wu Ming's mind, and Wu Ming's heart was filled with excitement. He glanced around and found eight of them.
It's no wonder that in addition to the four soul demons, there are countless powerful ghosts gathered within a radius of a hundred feet. Hundreds are not an exaggeration, but there are only eight, so you can imagine how precious they are.
Even if there were still, Wu Ming did not intend to look for them again. Firstly, the ghost was watching from the side, but he was frightened by the power of the thunderbolts and did not come. Secondly, the two women were still fighting hard against the lizards, and there was no room for further delay.
Whoosh!
There were no ghosts blocking the way, so Wu Ming ran with all his strength. In a short time, he ran several miles and clearly saw the two women fighting the lizard.
Bah!
It was only then that the ghosts swarmed in, but there was no threat from the ghost demon, so Wu Ming just carried the attack and rushed over.
"Um?"
When he was about a mile away from the mountain peak, Wu Ming felt his whole body sink, and for a moment he felt light, and his soul swayed slightly, as if something was passing by him.
When I looked back, I realized that the ghost was wandering to the side, letting out deep roars and not daring to step forward at all.
"Sure enough, there is formation protection!"
Wu Ming raised his eyebrows and confirmed what he was thinking.
This place is the human cemetery in Youxia Ridge. How can it be disturbed by monsters and monsters?
"snort!"
Without thinking much, Wu Ming turned around and took out the Eight Ox Crossbow, pointing it directly at the lizard.
The two barbarians are huge in size. Although they are powerful, they are cumbersome when moving. They can only move a distance of a hundred feet or so, and are no different from living targets.
The moment the Eight Bull Crossbow appeared, the two barbarians sensed the danger and ran towards the mountain without hesitation.
Unfortunately, facing the super speed of the armor-piercing arrow, there was no way to hide, and he was nailed to death at the foot of the mountain in an instant. Although the other one climbed up the mountain, it still did not escape death!
"Brother!"
Shen Xiaolan was overjoyed.
"Your Majesty, the beauties, the gods, and all the souls, demons, and ghosts, really can't help you!"
Chen Yuehua complimented.
"snort!"
Shen Xiaolan glared at her displeasedly, and the latter nodded in greeting as if nothing had happened.
"It's just a near miss! Have you got any news?"
Wu Ming, sweating profusely, put away the Eight Bull Crossbow and took back the two armor-piercing arrows, not even sparing the lizard corpse, as he asked.
There are only three armor-piercing arrows left. Without this treasure to protect you, the danger in the tomb will definitely double!
The previous charge into the formation consumed a lot of energy. If I hadn't swallowed a few pills to recover before getting close, I might have barely been able to fire even one arrow.
"These two idiots only know how to eat and eat, and they don't say anything useful."
Chen Yuehua curled her lips and said.
Shen Xiaolan nodded, but also gained nothing.
"It seems that even though there are many strong men sent by various forces in the Song Dynasty during this trip to Youxia Ridge, the demons and barbarians are still powerful!"
What Wu Ming said is true.
If not, how could the demon barbarians have so many men to intercept them when they entered the valley, and how could the demon barbarians also set up an ambush in front of the tomb?
Not to mention, Li Li and Chi Xiu alone are enough to match an army of monsters and barbarians, and even Mo Zangfeng and Liu Yixue may not be able to compete with them!
Fortunately, the demons and barbarians also have goals. The golden horned lotus is extremely precious, and it is impossible for them all to come to the human cemetery to cause trouble, otherwise they will have no chance at all.
"As far as I know, demons and barbarians cannot enter the area where the human cemetery is located!"
Chen Yuehua frowned.
"Is there anything else going on?"
Wu Ming was surprised.
"Back then, during the war, the two sides were mortal enemies. The army's formation masters built this cemetery. How could they allow demons and barbarians to disturb it?"
Chen Yuehua rolled her eyes playfully.
In her opinion, Wu Ming should have thought of such a simple and obvious thing, so he didn't mention it at all.
"cough!"
Wu Ming's face flashed with embarrassment, and he quickly changed his gaze to look at an obviously artificial stone gate in front of the mountain.
The stone gate is several feet high and is inscribed with dense runes. There are numerous statues of stone lions, tigers and leopards, and horses on both sides. However, many of them are broken, making it look extremely desolate and full of vicissitudes of life!
The ground paved with stone slabs is overgrown with weeds in the cracks. It seems that it is affected by the formation here, and it is the only place where plants survive in Ghost Valley.
It's just that the Shimen Cave is dark, with a cold air gushing out, causing the surrounding vegetation to turn yellow and wither away the vitality.
"General's Tomb!"
What caught Wu Ming's attention was that even though some of the plaques above the stone gate and the ancient inscriptions on both sides could still be seen after countless years.
A strange color flashed in Wu Ming's eyes. As far as he knew, the human race's great master who fought against the Golden Horned Dragon Barbarian Semi-Saint back then was not a strong man in the military and did not hold any official position.
Although the couplets on both sides are quite impressive, it can be seen that they describe the battle that year.
But the aura of the handwriting clearly fluctuates with runes, making the area around the entrance to the stone gate blend into the surrounding mountains.
Obviously this is a hidden formation, so it makes sense why the two lizards did not enter.
"Let's go!"
Chen Yuehua urged.
"Why are you so anxious? The ancient tomb must be extremely dangerous. Please let me, senior fellow apprentice, think more about it. Safety is the top priority!"
Shen Xiaolan had a grudge against this woman and said coldly.
Chen Yuehua also knew that she was not welcome and did not reply, but the anxiety in his eyes was obviously worse than before.
Without helpers, and the three of them are not of the same mind, it is difficult to ensure that other human warriors can enter the tomb early and obtain the mission target. It is too late!
Wu Ming had not practiced the formation method and did not see the reason. With a wave of his hand, he entered the stone gate first, as if he had entered the terrifying mouth!
"Walk!"
But not long after, among the ghosts that were wandering inside and outside, several soul monsters exuding a terrifying and sinister aura roared and collided with the invisible formation light curtain, and finally passed through!
