A few days later, Zhang Yao, Ye Youran, and Lin Zongren stood on a mountain peak and looked around. There was a huge wasteland in front of them.
In the center of the wilderness is a lake as dark as ink.
Around the lake, eight figures are evenly distributed. There is another person, slightly farther away from the lake.
Although they were far apart, Zhang Yao still recognized the nine people in the distance at a glance.
The eight figures evenly distributed around the lake are none other than the Eight Great Seed Monks. The figure slightly further away from the lake is Chu Baifu.
"Following Chu Baifu, we really found Ling Haoran. And we also found seven other seed monks!" Lin Zongren said. Although he had expected it, Lin Zongren was still a little surprised when he actually saw Ling Haoran. He didn't expect that,
The remaining seven seed monks also gathered here.
"Mo Yao, Ye Youran, do you really want to go there?" Lin Zongren asked.
The three of them followed Chu Baifu all the way here. During this time together, Lin Zongren discovered that although Zhang Yao was not a good person, as long as he did not take the initiative to provoke Zhang Yao, Zhang Yao was actually a very talkative person.
On the way, the three of them walked together with their swords on the ground, and Lin Zongren discovered a statue of the Immortal Emperor. Logically speaking, Zhang Yao and Ye Youran also contributed to the statue of the Immortal Emperor discovered by Lin Zongren. Lin Zongren originally thought that Zhang Yao would kill the Immortal Emperor.
The portrait was taken away, but Zhang Yao did not take it away. The portrait of the Immortal Emperor found on the road eventually belonged to Lin Zongren.
Zhang Yao nodded. Why did he follow Chu Baifu here? Now that he found Ling Haoran, Zhang Yao had to go there.
Seeing that both Zhang Yao and Ye Youran were determined to go, Lin Zongren dared not join in. He immediately said: "We have found Chu Baifu and Ling Haoran, so I won't go there."
Zhang Yao waved his hand. He said before that after finding someone, Lin Zongren decides by himself whether to stay or leave.
"Let's go over and have a look!" Zhang Yao and Ye Youran headed towards the center of the wasteland.
Zhang Yao originally thought that following Chu Baifu, he would only be able to find Ling Haoran and nine monks from the Ling family. Unexpectedly, although there were no other monks from each family, the eight seed monks were all in the center of the wasteland. There must be something weird in the center of the wasteland.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to attract the eight major seed monks to gather in one place.
rear.
Lin Zongren did not leave immediately. He had already obtained a statue of the Immortal Emperor, and he did not compete for the first place in the selection of the eight disciples. There was no need to work too hard. As long as he kept his life and the statue of the Immortal Emperor, he waited for the completion of the selection of the eight disciples. The Lin family
It won't be a big deal this year.
The distance is very safe now, and the center of the wasteland can be seen. Lin Zongren wants to see what will happen after Zhang Yao, Chu Baifu, Ling Haoran and others meet.
Zhang Yao knew that Lin Zongren had not left. The eight major seed monks were all in the center of the wasteland. Lin Zongren probably stayed here to see what would happen next. Or he wanted to know what was unusual about the center of the wasteland.
…
Wasteland Center.
Chu Baifu arrived here a few days ago and told Ling Haoran everything that happened before.
When Ling Haoran and the other seven seed cultivators learned that Zhang Yao, Ye Youran and an unknown third-grade peak cultivator had killed nine cultivators of the Chu family with the strength of three people, Ling Haoran and others had a look of surprise in their eyes.
Counting Chu Baifu and Lan Yi, there were eleven third-grade peak cultivators to deal with Zhang Yao and the others. The result was a complete defeat for the Chu family, and only Chu Baifu escaped here.
In fact, Chu Baifu knew that everyone in the Chu family was almost defeated by Zhang Yao alone. But Chu Baifu did not tell the truth, and he could not afford to lose face. When telling the truth, Chu Baifu belittled Zhang Yao and Ye Youran.
Strength, exaggerating the unknown identity of the third-grade peak monk.
After Chu Baifu told Ling Haoran about the matter, Ling Haoran did not intend to immediately trouble the Ye family.
"Brother Ling, the Ling family and the Chu family have joined forces to deal with the Ye family. This is the last year. As long as the candidates of the Ye family can't get the Immortal Emperor's portrait this time, the Ye family will be destroyed this year. Now both Mo Yao and Ye Youran
After getting the portrait of the Immortal Emperor, if we don't get rid of these two people, the efforts of the Ling family and the Chu family in the past two years will be in vain." Chu Baifu thought about it for the past few days, but he was still unwilling. He came to find him
This place is to seek stronger power to deal with Zhang Yao and others.
"The forbidden area is vast, how can you still find the Ye family?" Ling Haoran asked calmly without looking back.
This year, only three people from the Ye family have entered the Immortal Emperor's Immortal Forbidden Area, Zhang Yao, Ye Youran, and Lan Yi. The three of them include a first-grade monk and two peak third-grade monks. Among them, Lan Yi, a peak third-grade monk, has already joined the Ling family and Chu
Ten third-grade peak cultivators from the Chu family, plus Nei Ying Lan Yi, went to deal with Ye Youran and Mo Yao from the Ye family. However, they lost all their troops and only Chu Baifu fled here like a lost dog.
As for one more inexplicable third-grade peak cultivator? In Ling Haoran's opinion, let alone one more inexplicable third-grade peak cultivator, even if there were three or four more, the Chu family would have an absolute advantage.
Chu Baifu couldn't even handle this little thing, so Ling Haoran naturally despised Chu Baifu in his heart.
Chu Baifu remained silent, Lan Yi was dead, and there was really no way to find Ye Youran and Mo Yao at the moment.
Seeing that Chu Baifu didn't answer, Ling Haoran asked again: "Since there is no way to find the Ye family, what can I do if I call the Ling family monks?"
"But Brother Ling, if we don't get rid of the Ye family in the forbidden area, Ye Youran and Mo Yao can bring out the Immortal Emperor's portrait from the forbidden area. The Ye family will escape disaster this year, and Ye Youran and Mo Yao will join the Eight Sects.
." Chu Bai said.
"So what!" Ling Haoran said slowly: "Back then, Ye Cangguang of the Ye family also brought out the statue of the Immortal Emperor from the forbidden area, and also joined the Thunder Fire Sect. But in the end, Ye Cangguang still died. How can the Ye family bring out the Immortal Emperor this year?
The portrait of the emperor will let the Ye family survive for another three years. When the eight disciples are selected, Ye Youran and Mo Yao will definitely join a sect. When they get to the sect, there will be plenty of opportunities to deal with them."
At this time, neither Chu Baifu nor the Ling family could find the Ye family. In addition, Ling Haoran had more important things to do than dealing with Zhang Yao and Ye Youran.
As one of the eight seed monks, Ling Haoran entered the forbidden area with only one purpose. To compete for the Immortal Emperor's portrait and become the first among the eight disciples this year!
Ye Chengfeng, Xie Jinyang, Chen Hongyu, Li Zhangyun, Yu Qiushui, Yuntingqian, and Lu Bingze also have the same purpose as Ling Haoran.
As for dealing with the Ye family, Ling Haoran never thought of taking matters into his own hands.
In Ling Haoran's opinion, people from the Ye family were not worthy of him taking action himself. But unexpectedly, Chu Baifu messed up the matter.
…
As soon as he walked into the wasteland, Zhang Yao suddenly rushed forward. This was not Zhang Yao's intention, but there was a strong suction force in the wasteland that pulled him towards the center of the wasteland.
Zhang Yao paused and looked around. No wonder the vegetation on the entire wasteland was bent and growing towards the center of the wasteland. It turned out to be the suction force.
"What a powerful suction force!" Ye Youran, a third-grade peak cultivator, suddenly stepped into the wasteland and was pulled forward by this force. If he was allowed to be pulled by this force, he would almost fly into the wasteland.
In the center, Ye Youran's expression changed and he quickly stopped.
Zhang Yao nodded, feeling more and more that there was something strange in the center of the wasteland! Of course, this suction force may also be caused by the eight seed monks, but this possibility is not high. After all, the vegetation in the entire wasteland grows towards the center of the wasteland. This
It's not a one-day effort.
After pondering for a while, Zhang Yao said: "Be careful, if you can't resist the suction, just step back!"
Ye Youran nodded and warned: "You too."
The current suction force was still within the tolerance range. Zhang Yao and Ye Youran gave up resistance and allowed the suction force to pull them. They quickly headed to the center of the wasteland.
After a while, Zhang Yao and Ye Youran were halfway through the journey.
Ye Youran suddenly slowed down, and Zhang Yao also slowed down.
"The suction is getting stronger and stronger. I'm afraid I won't be able to reach the center of the wasteland." Ye Youran leaned back to resist the suction.
The suction force increased, and she had to resist the suction force and slow down. Otherwise, Ye Youran might not be able to stop if the speed continued any faster.
"Don't be brave, just try your best," Zhang Yao said. Then he gave up the resistance and continued to let the suction pull him towards the center of the wasteland.
Ye Youran nodded, Zhang Yao had gone away.
After a while, Ye Youran had to stop. If she continued walking, she would not be able to resist the suction and would be pulled towards the center of the wasteland.
Ling Haoran and others are in the center of the wasteland. If Ye Youran's body flies to the center of the wasteland involuntarily, it will be very dangerous once Ye Youran reaches the center of the wasteland. At least Ling Haoran and Chu Baifu will not stand idly by and will definitely take the opportunity to deal with Ye Youran.
Although he could not move forward, Ye Youran did not retreat.
Staying here requires constant consumption of strength to fight against the suction, but it is closer to the center of the wasteland and can be seen more clearly.
In the center of the wasteland, with a radius of a hundred feet, the land seemed to have been lifted away. There was no vegetation or trees, only bare stone surface.
Zhang Yao walked out of the woods and instantly attracted nine eyes.
"It's you!"
Chu Baifu's eyes lit up when he saw that the person coming was Zhang Yao. He had no way to deal with the Ye family anymore, but he didn't expect Zhang Yao to come to his door.
Ling Haoran frowned. Was it a coincidence that Zhang Yao came here, or was there another reason?
Coincidence? Not quite!
Ling Haoran looked at Chu Baifu.
Zhang Yao and the others had the strength to deal with Lan Yi and the nine monks from the Chu family, and they must also have the strength to leave Chu Baifu behind.
The reason why Chu Baifu was not left behind was probably just to follow Chu Baifu and find Ling Haoran at this moment!
Ye Chengfeng, Xie Jinyang, Chen Hongyu, Li Zhangyun, Yu Qiushui, Yuntingqian, and Lu Bingze all looked at Zhang Yao with interest.
Ordinary third-grade peak monks may not be able to walk within a hundred feet of the center of the wasteland. I didn't expect that this first-grade monk named Mo Yao could actually walk within a hundred feet of the center of the wasteland!
I don’t know how much closer Zhang Yao can get, but it should be about the same as Chu Baifu.
If he wanted to be like them and walk ten feet into the black hole, Zhang Yao might not be able to do it!
Zhang Yao was looking at this place from the top of the mountain before, thinking that there was a lake in the center of the wasteland, and Ling Haoran and others gathered around the lake.
But after arriving within a hundred feet of the center of the wasteland, Zhang Yao discovered that the center of the wasteland was not a lake, but a huge, deep, dark, and bottomless hole.
