There’s no counter!
Chu Qi Hun shook his head firmly.
My late master spent hundreds of years on this, but it was still impossible to unravel in the end. However, it was not a completely fruitless attempt. As he studied the movement technique of the strange races, he managed to incorporate many of the principles of their techniques into our Xuan techniques, finally devising a unique cultivation technique. When paired with the complementary movement techniques, this cultivation technique would produce an effect similar to the strange races’ Stealth Kills technique. The cultivation technique I’m using right now is precisely this. Venerable Mei is right in thinking that this is related to the War for Seizing the Heavens because this technique was indeed created from the strange races’ Stealth Kills technique!
So that’s how it is!
Mei Xue Yan sighed and calmed her emotions before opening her mouth.
Your teacher was truly a respectable senior. His ability was not hidden because of his disability; and he still used his skills to benefit the later generations as much as he could.
Just as the few of them were chatting joyfully, a burst of light suddenly flashed across their heads. More than a dozen zhang
above the ground, the several tens of zhang
of snow was forcefully dug away by someone, revealing the entrance of this manmade cave!
The four of them looked up with shock and Chu Qi Hun even stood rapidly with a shua
sound.
Relax, relax; they cannot come down here. If they dare to come down, that will be more fun.
Jun Mo Xie snorted coldly.
To think that there are a few among the ones who came who have brains this time. How surprising. However, did you really that it would be this simple?
Young Master Jun smiled suavely as a milky white mist surged out of his body. Then, he snorted coldly.
Sink!
Before the shocked gazes of Chu Qi Hun and Dongfang Wen Xin, the ground beneath them suddenly sank downward. This time was very different than the other time. The last time, Jun Mo Xie was only looking for a hiding place, but his hiding place that was over a dozen zhang
beneath the ground was actually discovered, causing Jun Mo Xie to become angry.
This time, he directly traveled downward by several tens of zhang
. In that moment, even Chu Qi Hun felt a misconception as if he were dreaming. Mei Xue Yan directly grabbed Dongfang Wen Xin at the beginning of the descent, lifting her feet off the ground to lesson the falling sensation.
Before this, Chu Qi Hun had assumed that this hole had been prepared by Jun Mo Xie. Only now did he realize that this was not the case at all. It was completely created at the last minute! On top of that, Jun Mo Xie could make the ground sink further if he wished. This kind of power that had seemingly no restrictions was incredibly powerful! Even the former Supreme Assassin could barely wrap his head around the idea!
There was actually such a mystical ability in the world!
Was it some kind of supreme power?
I’m afraid that the bunch that’ll come this time is not ordinary. They’re not that easy to handle. There will most likely be a large battle later on.
Jun Mo Xie said to Mei Xue Yan as he controlled their descent.
There are two powerful auras on the surface; even compared to you, they’re not much inferior. But no matter what happens, you must not make a move. Protecting mother is your only mission. You can leave everything else to the two of us to settle!
Those are Venerable level experts! Are the two of you capable of dealing with them?
Mei Xue Yan glared at him and pouted.
You better not act tough! If I took action, there’s at least a higher chance of success!
Relax, in this kind of environment, even if a deity came down from the heavens, then one would still die if one came, and two would die if they came in a pair!
Jun Mo Xie narrowed his eyes and snorted.
Well said! If you’re talking about sneak attacks, apart from the two of us, the third one probably hasn’t even come out from his mother’s womb yet!
Chu Qi Hun laughed aloud, his tone similarly filled with confidence.
In the period they were underground, Jun Mo Xie had used his skills and helped him recover his Xuan energy and body to its peak state. Right now, his confidence was also bursting through the roof!
In the darkness of the earth, the two Assassin Kings set out together!
But from the surface, there didn’t seem to be any movements at all; it was still perfectly calm!
What should we do now?
Zi Jing Hong peered uncertainly into the dark hole. A strange, ghostly draft seemed to be rising out of it. He swallowed nervously and continued.
Why don’t we directly fill this hole and bury them alive? That would save us a lot of trouble.
Hur hur, Lord Zi, how do you know if there are no other outlets down there? Or even… a direct path that leads out of this valley? Bury them? This suggestion of yours has truly caused this old man to chuckle a little.
Zhen Ci Bei laughed coldly as he looked at Zi Jing Hong.
Zi Jing Hong’s face turned red and he could not say anything.
Send some people down to take a look, two groups at a time! The first group will have three people in a horn formation, and the second group will be in a circular formation. The two groups will stay five zhang
apart from each other, watching each other. This way, we can ensure our own safety.
Du Jue commanded coldly.
Zhen Ci Bei smiled and nodded.
Not bad, Lord Du’s suggestion is very good. This way, we can prevent heavy casualties! This time, for the sake of forming the most optimal cooperation, each group should be formed with people from the same faction. Otherwise, if there are anymore clown shows like the one Ma Jiang Ming and the Ruan brothers again, I’ll tear all of you apart! Palace Lord Zi, what do you think?
Zi Jing Hong nodded dully as he replied,
Second Master’s words are reasonable. In that case, we’ll have to trouble Second Master to organize the people.
Zi Jing Hong naturally understood what Du Jue and Zhen Ci Bei were planning. These two old fellows were hoping to use his Illusory Blood Sea’s experts as the first batch of cannon fodder!
Thus, Zi Jing Hong cleverly backed out of the planning group, and directly threw the problem back to Zhen Ci Bei. There was no way you could avoid placing a few of your guys into the groups if you’re organizing, right? If as the main planner, you only placed other people’s experts as the main force, how will you convince the crowd?
Very well, this old man has lived for so many years, and has become slightly shameless by now.
Zhen Ci Bei’s eyes flashed as he laughed self deprecatingly.
The Blood Ocean cultivators spend their life in the Blood Ocean mist. They should be more familiar with dark environments compared to the others; I recommend that the first group of three should be formed with the experts of the Blood Ocean? Brother Du, do you have a differing opinion?
Du Jue rolled his eyes speechlessly and he smiled blandly,
Indeed, Brother Zhen’s words are reasonable; it was an extremely suitable choice for the experts of the Blood Ocean to take the lead in the first group. As for the second group, it was still a proper formation. To this point, our Supreme Golden City is far inferior to the Elusive World of Immortals! In that regard, it is better to let the people of the Immortal Palace take up the job… The rest of us will wait here and assume the responsibility of sentries! Of course, if there’s a need for a third batch to go down, our Supreme Golden City will definitely not shirk our duties!
Shameless!
Zi Jing Hong scolded darkly in his heart.
Truly too shameless!
These two ancient old things are simply plotting against each other, completely ignoring the Blood Ocean faction that they’d pushed to the front as cannon fodder! From the looks of it, their losses in this period of time had caused the two great holy lands to suddenly go into self preservation mode; after all… any one of these factions’ losses were not low! The three Holy Lands had dumped nearly a hundred experts into this bottomless hole…
Zhen Ci Bei was also extremely unhappy in this moment. To think that this Du Jue would deal him a strike while taking advantage of an opportune moment. He had initially planned to leave his own faction to pick the advantages whole the rest labored, but he had unexpectedly been pushed into the second group. Although they were not the most direct cannon fodder, the risk was not small either.
The both of them cursed in their hearts!
Damn his grandpa, with the two of us sending our men, would there still be a need for a third group? Du Jue’s words about his unshirkable duty was simply just a pile of horse sht! Aren’t you cursing our forces to be wiped out?
Go on!
Zhen Ci Bei gritted his teeth angrily and ordered.
If there are any accidents, send a long whistle to alert us!
Zi Jing Hong nodded with annoyance and pointed out three Superior Supreme experts from his Blood Ocean group. These three had always been close, and their coordination was extremely refined. Furthermore, their Xuan cultivation levels were on the higher end even in the Blood Ocean. Although it was dangerous to venture into this dark hole, it was not quite likely that they would be killed easily without even having the chance to retaliate! At the very least, they should be able to hold on until the reinforcements from the Elusive World of Immortals arrived.
Halt every 10 zhang
and leave a mark! Make a trail behind you!
Du Jue added another command.
Under the gazes of the rest, the three Blood Ocean experts formed into a triangular formation and jumped into the hole. They stuck close to the walls of the hole as they fell, and their swords gleamed brightly before them. Their other hand was placed before their chest, with a Xuan technique ready. They were prepared to either attack or latch onto the walls at any moment!
Behind them, five white-robed experts from the Elusive World of Immortals also followed closely, leaping soundlessly into the hole.
The group that went down this time was surprisingly composed of all Superior Supreme experts!
The two groups all maintained the same movements, falling and latching themselves onto the cave walls with the same timing. Their momentums were nearly identical as they descended carefully!
The bottom of the cave…
Mo Xie, the opponent’s strength is too great; we cannot go head to head against them!
Mei Xue Yan furrowed her brows and advised anxiously.
Let’s leave this place first! For a nobleman to take revenge, ten years is not too long! I’ve heard their conversation above; the speaker is the number two existence of the Elusive World of Immortals, Venerable Zhen Ci Bei and Supreme Golden City’s number three, the Ruthless Venerable, Du Jue! Those two are on the same level characters as me! Furthermore, they have over a hundred experts with them! Mo Xie, for the sake of your mother, just bear with it this time and go! I know that you must have other escape methods for sure!
Jun Mo Xie shuddered and he looked viciously at the eight people who were descending carefully. Gritting his teeth, he finally sighed.
Fine! All of you, follow me closely!
Jun Mo Xie waved his hand, and a completely dark hole appeared on the ground. The four hurriedly jumped into it, and the hole instantly began to close behind them, soundlessly and without a single trace… Jun Mo Xie was the last to jump into the hole, and before he did so, a cold glint flashed across his eyes!
In the time it took to boil a cup of tea, the three experts from the Blood Ocean reached the bottom. The thing that surprised them the most was, how could a place that was so far from the surface be completely devoid of a single drop of water, and was instead completely dry? Furthermore, there was not a single person down here at all!
When they raised their heads and looked, the light sky above was only as wide as the mouth of a teapot; by a rough estimate, this hole was at least 50 zhang
deep!
Wait… there’s nobody? How could there be nobody?
Where did they go? The few of them searched carefully around the entire area and even smashed the walls. However, it was all solid earth. Apart from that, there were only extremely tough rocks! Not to mention a person, even a rat would have trouble finding a crack to dig its way out; this was simply too strange! The three could only look at each other with confusion.
Just at this time, Jun Mo Xie who had already sunken into the ground walked to the back and turned his body. A malicious glint flashed in his eyes as he brought his hands together and made a strange hand seal. Suddenly, a fuzzy yellow light rose out of his body!
The power of Earth!
This daddy may not be able to kill all of you personally, but I can still bury you alive!
