Senior Brother Wu was stunned for a moment, then a look of approval appeared on his cold face. He then whispered a few words to Senior Brother Yu. After hearing what he heard, Senior Brother Yu also gave Li Yanqing a thumbs up.
Originally, the two of them had agreed that since they were assigned to this team, they would get along well with Li Yan. The only team leader and foundation-building cultivator was Gong Chenying from Xiaozhu Peak.
They were not Wang Tian's direct descendants, so they would not listen to Wang Tian's instigation. Senior Brother Wu asked a question just now, in fact, it was to bring them closer together, but Li Yan gave a positive answer.
When he thought about it, it was indeed true. In fact, everyone knew this speculation, but in such a tense atmosphere, there was not much that could be thought of.
Senior Brother Wu's real name is Wu Shixi, and the cultivator surnamed Yu's real name is Yu Yinong, which is a name he gave himself because he was not convinced by the saying "a scholar is completely useless", to imply that he is at least of some use.
At the same time, Gong Chenying in front had arrived in front of the first store.
Under the dim sky, the door of a fabric store on the left was open. From the outside, one could see several pieces of brightly colored fabrics placed on the counter, and a lot of fabrics were piled in the wooden grid behind the counter.
There was a little dust on the counter, but the pieces of brightly colored cloth placed on it looked spotless.
The house was empty, with dim light shining in from the sky above the street. In this environment where it was so quiet that even the sound of footsteps seemed harsh, everything seemed a little eerie and spooky.
Gong Chenying looked around and then stepped in.
The moment she entered the store, a green light flashed on her hand, and a green halberd was already in her hand. Even with her slender figure over seven feet tall, the halberd seemed a little too long to hold in her hand.
Gong Chenying was wearing a dark green robe with a tight waist and plump hips, which made her look very heroic. She was wearing a pair of thin boots made by an unknown monster. When she stepped into the store, a pair of footprints were left on the wooden floor of the store.
She looked around the store with her beautiful eyes, but didn't see anything wrong. But when her eyes fell on the pieces of brightly colored fabrics on the counter, she felt a sense of out of place.
The rest of the store was covered with fine dust, but these pieces of cloth were as clean as new!
She slowly stretched out her halberd and poked at the pieces of clear cloth. The stretching of the cloth made a rustling sound in the air, as if an old man who was about to die was speaking with a hunched back.
Behind him, a group of monks outside the door split into several groups and were on guard in different directions.
Although the light in the gray material shop was dim, when Gong Chenying picked up a piece of cloth with a halberd and spread it out, he did not notice a trace of dust falling down. However, except for the counter where the cloth was piled, a layer of floating dust was clearly visible everywhere else.
Gong Chenying couldn't help but want to bring the cloth closer to take a look, and his feet naturally moved forward half an inch. At this moment, he heard a slight "creaking" sound from the wooden board under his feet. At the same time, a person outside the door suddenly shouted loudly.
"Sixth Senior Sister, retreat!"
Gong Chenying felt alarmed and without giving it much thought, he stomped his feet hard on the ground, arched his back high, and rushed towards the door like a frightened female leopard.
At this moment, a strange scene appeared. The piece of cloth on the halberd in his hand suddenly seemed to come alive. It twisted and tightened strangely, and directly wrapped around the green halberd.
The other bright pieces of cloth piled on the counter suddenly spread out, like a bunch of colorful ghost faces, and actually made a "hehe" sound, and the strange laughter had already wrapped around Gong Chenying's body.
At the same time, more fabrics in the wooden grid behind the counter suddenly unfolded. The flowers on them were brightly colored and dazzling, making a "ho ho" sound like someone strangling the throat, and they all rushed to the walls and doors and windows, obviously trying to block Gong Chenying's retreat.
The door of the shop also closed automatically with a "click".
At the moment when Gong Chenying stepped on the ground, arched her back and jumped up, the wooden board on the ground did not explode under Gong Chenying's kick, but made a sharper "crunch" sound, and then a black hole appeared on the floor, pulling her underground.
Under the surge of Gong Chenying's magic power, the thin floating dust in the shop was splashed all over the sky and gathered towards the ground in the middle of the shop under the dim light. In just a breath, a phantom figure formed in the shop, and then continued to condense.
Gong Chenying felt a chill in her heart. She had a feeling that as long as the dust gathered into a solid human figure, her hope of escape would be extremely slim.
His mind raced, he held the halberd in his left hand, and the spiritual energy in his body circulated wildly. Suddenly, the green light on the green halberd surged, and a sharp sound of brocade tearing was heard.
The gorgeous cloth wrapped around the halberd, which looked like a living thing, burst apart with a "swish". At the same time, she slapped the counter a few feet in front of her with her right palm in the air, and a great force hit the corner of the counter.
"boom!"
With one palm strike, Gong Chenying smashed the counter into pieces. A powerful recoil force threw her high backwards, and her body suddenly escaped from the black hole on the ground.
Outside the shop, when Gong Chenying entered the shop, they followed orders and were on full alert all around. Li Yan stood behind the team and watched, looking behind him from time to time. Strangely, the huge black shadow described never appeared.
"Could it be that the trial has already begun, but we just haven't noticed it?"
While Li Yan was thinking, he released all his consciousness to expand outward. When his consciousness was released, the five spiritual power tanks in his body became more active than when he was outside the valley, especially the earth spiritual power tank. The earth spiritual power, which was originally ranked fourth in Li Yan's body, now had a boiling feeling, as if it was about to surpass the fire spiritual power in front, as if it had encountered a great and exciting thing.
At the same time, the spiritual energy between heaven and earth in Li Yan's consciousness was also unusually active. He could sense that the spiritual energy was also arranged in the order of the five elements, but the earth-type spiritual energy was ranked the strongest.
Just when he was about to practice the Guishui Sutra and feel it again, he heard a crisp "crunch" sound in the silent space. Then the earth spiritual energy in his consciousness suddenly became manic, and even had a tendency to swallow up the other four attribute spiritual energies.
The next moment, the Guishui Meridian in his body was somewhat out of control and began to travel rapidly through his meridians. Li Yan's heart was pounding with fear, and the source of this uneasiness turned out to be the fabric shop on the side. He turned around quickly and shouted loudly.
"Sixth Senior Sister, retreat!"
With a loud "bang", the door of the shop was smashed into pieces by someone from the inside out. Wood chips flew in all directions with a piercing scream. Li Yan and his group of Qi Condensation cultivators hurriedly increased their protective spiritual light to block the flying wood chips.
I saw a human-shaped creature shooting out from the broken doorway. The reason why it is said to be human-shaped is because the human-shaped creature is wrapped in cloth all over.
Just when everyone was in shock and didn't know what to do, the ball of cloth turned into a rain of cloth with a "hiss". A man holding a long spear with green light flickering in it stood on the street. It was Gong Chenying who had escaped from the trap.
"Go quickly, I'll cover you!"
With a clear shout, Gong Chenying took a quick glance and saw that everyone was safe for the time being, so he swung out with his halberd. A green light about ten feet long streaked from the sky and earth towards the fabric shop.
The Qi Condensation Stage cultivators all reacted quickly. The six teams formed small defensive formations and rushed forward on the street.
A huge green light descended from the sky and headed towards the fabric shop like it was destroying the world. There was a loud bang and dust flew everywhere. The shop was split in two by the green light, and several houses were instantly turned into powder.
Seeing that his attack was successful, Gong Chenying did not check the result of the attack in detail. He dragged the green halberd backwards, leaving a streak of sparks on the bluestone of the street, and rushed forward to chase the people in front!
Less than three breaths after everyone left, a figure slowly walked out from the dust of the houses, slowly stepped out of the dust, and stood in the middle of the street.
This man was dozens of feet tall, standing upright, his body half in a smokey state, his face unclear. He let out a low, muffled roar facing the street, then spread his arms and raised his head to the sky, like two huge bat wings spread out.
In an instant, wisps of black gas began to rise rapidly from his arms. In just a breath or so, half of the sky behind him became extremely dark. Along with the dim light, a huge black shadow was cast at the beginning of the street.
At this moment, the giant flapped his arms forward like flapping wings, and a huge black shadow in the sky covered half of the sky and was pressing down on the entire street.
At the same time, Li Yan and his friends who were running on the street suddenly heard a crisp "crunch" sound in their ears. The spiritual power in Li Yan's body boiled again. He turned his head and saw a pig-slaughtering chopping board outside a shop on the side, which seemed to be shaken by the wind.
He couldn't help but blurt out.
"not good!"
Before everyone could react, they saw the originally quiet street suddenly filled with a loud "whooshing" sound, and in various shops on both sides, the whistling sound like frying beans arose.
In the blacksmith shop, countless finished and semi-finished weapons, and even pieces of fine steel broke through the wall; in the bun shop, both the steamers and buns were wrapped in a layer of black and yellow light and shot out; in the coffin shop, the huge cover was shot out first, and then the heavy wooden coffin flew out with a heavy "buzzing" sound.
For a moment, all kinds of shops were in chaos, with all kinds of items wrapped in black and yellow light shooting towards the people. At this time, people no longer regarded these things as ordinary items and food. Just by seeing the eerie black and yellow light flashing on them, they knew that the people coming were not friendly.
As everyone released protective spiritual light, they also used all their spiritual weapons and treasures. Fortunately, they had formed a defensive formation in groups of six before. Although they were in a mess for a while, they were able to resist.
Gong Chenying shouted when he saw this.
"Team three is on the left, team three is on the right, don't linger in the fight, charge forward!"
After saying that, she flew into the air. At the moment she flew into the air, her body paused. With a flash of green light on Gong Chenying's body, she had stabilized her body again.
However, there was horror in her eyes. The moment she took off, she felt a huge pressure from the sky. After using 60% of her magic power, she barely flew to a height of more than two meters.
"There is a no-fly ban here!"
After barely flying above everyone's heads and steadying her body a bit, she held the halberd in one hand and formed a seal with the other, while attacking both sides of the street. A huge green light and a yellow giant blade flew out in an instant, and with a sharp whistle, it struck both sides like thunder.
With two loud bangs, both sides of the street were covered with rubble and filled with dust, but she frowned. The recoil force from her hand made her realize that her plan had failed.
In the attack just now, the magic hit the shops on both sides but was unable to extend backwards. It was as if there was a layer of fine steel plate behind the shops, and the attack force was bounced back.
She had originally planned to lead everyone away from the street and find another way out, but it seemed that there might be a restricted area here. Could it be that they could only stay on the street
