Five Immortal Sects

Chapter 129: Cold mountain trail

Views:

After taking a look at the disgusting black and red blood stains and the colorful internal organs all over the ground, Li Yan slowly flew towards the other person holding the blue diamond crystal.

Just as he flew to the corpse, a slender jade hand reached out.

"for you!"

Gong Chenying had already taken the blue diamond crystal from the man's hand, and when he saw Li Yan coming over, he handed it to him.

Li Yan smiled slightly and reached out to take it. After looking down at the blue diamond crystal, he was stunned. Then he looked at the ground again and began to observe it.

A man was lying on the ground. His clothes were relatively well preserved, and one could tell at a glance that he was a sword cultivator from the Tenth Step Academy. However, his clothes were bulging and he was swollen like a pig...

Gong Chenying waved her jade hand, and two objects, one far and one near, flew into her hands. They were the storage bags on the waists of the two foundation-building monks. She grabbed them in her hands the next moment.

After she put away the two storage bags, she looked up at the top of the ball. At this time, there was a loud crackling sound and a huge black shadow had covered her.

Gong Chenying quickly rushed to other places in the ball, leaving Li Yan alone to observe the body of the Ten-Step Academy Foundation Establishment Sword Cultivator.

Li Yan seemed to be very interested in the corpse of the Ten-Step Courtyard Foundation Establishment Monk. With his hands wrapped in spiritual power, he turned the man over.

This powerful foundation-building monk in his lifetime now had a swollen and dark face, and could be vaguely judged to be a man of about 27 or 28 years old. His neck was covered with a circle of red spots that made one's scalp tingle.

There was a strong sense of unwillingness on that dark face, and endless hatred in his eyes. One of his hands was empty, and the other hand was bent as if to emit a sword. There was no sword box behind him, so he must be a powerful inner sword practitioner.

While Li Yan was observing, the cultivators in the defensive formation at the entrance of the passage slowly closed their mouths. Many of them stared at Li Yan in astonishment. That man was actually walking around in the ball like that.

There didn't seem to be anything wrong with his expression. Many people looked at each other and saw deep confusion and surprise in each other's eyes.

It is no exaggeration to say that this is their strongest means. Among cultivators of the same level, the poison they devised, although they cannot guarantee the death of the person hit by it, will definitely cause unbearable pain to the other party.

Even if one were a fellow poison cultivator entering the area, one would have to be extremely careful. However, the man in front of him was strolling leisurely. That was an area where dozens of poisons were intertwined, but he seemed to be unaware of anything. Was there something wrong with the poison they had set up

Or could the other party just need to protect their body with spiritual energy to avoid it? Then how to explain the dead bodies on the ground, among which there are two powerful monks who are suspected to be in the foundation-building stage. Their bodies are motionless even when they are turned over, which shows that they are deader than dead.

"He must have been given some elixir by Grandmaster Wei, otherwise it wouldn't be so easy."

Mi Yuanzhi murmured.

"That must be the case. He had already prepared for it, but he took the antidote secretly, and we didn't see it."

Qi Busheng said unconvinced.

As soon as he said this, many people nodded secretly. They also didn't believe that Master Li from Xiaozhu Peak could resist poison with his own body, and it was a deadly poison that was a mixture of various poisons.

Even the people who set the ambush were only sure to deal with the poison they had used, and had no confidence in dealing with the poisons spread by others, not to mention the chaotic poisons that were mixed together after the outbreak.

Who knows if there will be any abnormal changes after these poisons are mixed, so they would rather believe their own guesses.

"Maybe the other party has already consumed too much of the poisonous miasma and it is not fatal at all."

A cultivator from Laojun Peak spoke hesitantly. Some people thought about it and felt that this possibility existed. Gradually, everyone accepted some of the speculated answers, but they were unwilling to agree that Uncle Master Li could resist the poison with his own body.

In their view, this is a denial of their own level of poisoning, which is basically a blow.

While everyone was guessing, Gong Chenying had already flown through the ball, but her brows were furrowed the whole time.

"Twenty-seven Ten-Step Academy sword cultivators, twenty-four Taixuan Sect Taoists, is there something wrong with the Wheel of Life and Death? Is there a three-way intersection? Or is this the trump card that the three sects are using against us?"

In her heart, she was basically certain that it was the latter, but she did not accept this situation.

In the former case, if the three parties met, it would probably be a melee, with each party relying on their own abilities. But in the latter case, it would be a situation where one's side would be doomed.

Gong Chenying's heart sank to the bottom when she thought of the simultaneous appearance of two Foundation Establishment cultivators. The cultivators who could come here had all been carefully selected, and she was not sure that she could deal with two cultivators of the same level at the same time.

But she couldn't figure out why this strange kindness appeared. At the same time, Gong Chenying was also glad that she had chosen the right approach.

They rushed here regardless of everything and set a trap. Otherwise, according to the playing style of the first two levels, they would be killed as soon as they scored a goal. It would be an absolutely one-sided massacre.

While thinking, Gong Chenying returned to Li Yan's side. Li Yan had been flying back and forth between the two foundation-building monks, observing them for a while. He had never looked at the other dead monks, as if he was measuring something.

"Did you find anything?" Gong Chenying asked in a low voice.

“There’s some speculation, but we have to go out.

"Li Yan's heartbeat quickened, and he looked up. Since the blue diamond crystal was not activated here, the top of the ball was already pitch black.

"The entrance to the passage is over there, let's go out and talk about it."

Gong Chenying had already found the exit while flying just now. After saying that, he turned around and flew towards the protective formation of the Wuliang Sect.

"Quickly clean up the battlefield. Let's get out first. Be careful of the poison in the ball. Especially don't go over those four places. I don't have the antidote there."

After that, she pointed to four places in succession.

As soon as she finished speaking, several cultivators rushed out first. Cleaning up the battlefield was their favorite thing, which was also the reason why they were dissatisfied when they saw Li Yan going out.

But when they saw Li Yan took out two blue diamond crystals, and Uncle Gong only took away the storage bags of two foundation-building cultivators, they were already impatient.

But when a few people went out, they still subconsciously believed their previous guess. The poisonous miasma in the ball was almost gone, and even if it was still there, they could resist it.

As soon as they received the order, several people rushed out in a hurry. However, after they took only a few steps forward, their faces changed drastically and they hurriedly sat cross-legged on the ground.

They took out the pills and swallowed them, but it was obviously too late, and their faces were faintly black, red or purple. Fortunately, they swallowed the pills in time. Although it was impossible to detoxify them all at once, it temporarily suppressed the toxins. They could find the corresponding antidote later.

The monks who were about to follow and rush out saw this and couldn't help but pause. Of course, they understood what had happened and were horrified. They stopped and looked at the people from Laojun Peak and Sixiang Peak who had not yet left. Those people were obviously also quite surprised. They were also shocked. The situation outside was completely different from what they imagined, but they reacted very quickly. They took out the antidote and exchanged it with each other before swallowing it.

Then he threw some to the rest of the people, and then carefully walked out of the formation. After a little testing, seeing that everything was temporarily safe, he immediately ran towards the few people who had been poisoned.

As soon as everyone walked out of the formation, they realized that the smell was foul and violent, as if it was a volcanic crater that could erupt at any time.

Thinking of the places Gong Chenying mentioned just now, they swept their spiritual sense over there. Apart from more corpses, it was surprisingly quiet. Even the air was purer than here. However, the more it was like this, the colder they felt in their hearts.

The fact that the poison couldn't even be transmitted could only mean that the place was even more bizarre and unpredictable. This made the corpses piled up in those places seem even more eerie in their spiritual consciousness. They couldn't help but look a few more times at Li Yan, who was squatting on the ground moving the corpses.

Three breaths later, Li Yan also went alone to the four places he had arranged himself and collected twenty-three storage bags.

After only three breaths, he was the only one left in the ball. He started to turn over the corpses underground, and then kept using his magic power to probe into the corpses, with a strange look on his face...

When he heard the crackling sound above his head, Li Yan hurriedly flew towards the passage.

Outside the sphere, the cold wind was howling and snowflakes were falling like buckets.

Li Yan looked around. This was a path lined with snow-capped mountains. They were right at the beginning of the path. Snow-capped mountains towered on both sides, undulating and blending into the sky and earth.

In the sky, snowflakes as big as fists fell one after another, submerging the snow trails in the mountains in the vast view.

A group of people stood on the snowy mountain trail like this. In just a moment, their bodies were covered with a thick layer of edelweiss. They looked at Gong Chenying, not knowing what to do next.

At the previous level, they had recovered the mana they had consumed. When they entered later, dozens of the other side had already died. Although they later obtained a lot of storage bags, everyone's face was filled with worry at this moment.

If it weren't for Gong Chenying's sudden plan that produced unexpected results, they would all be dead bodies now.

"Uncle Gong, should we charge all the way through this level and then set up an ambush?"

In the silence, a quiet voice was heard. Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw that it was Cheng Jingnian from Laojun Peak.

At this moment, her jet-black hair was covered with a lot of white snow, and her little face was pale, making her look charming and delicate, making people love her. I don’t know if it was because of the weather here or because she thought of the ending later, but her voice was a little trembling.

Everyone quickly focused their attention on Gong Chenying again, with all kinds of emotions emerging, including anxiety, fear, and helplessness.

"It seems that we must fight to the ten-mile mark in advance, arrange our means, and then rest outside the sphere!"

Gong Chenying stood in the snow, her figure hidden by the large snowflakes. She faced everyone's gaze. This was the best solution she could think of at the moment.

"But in this way, we are betting that the other party will never be faster than us. As long as the other party is faster than us once, we can only say that it is our fate."

Gong Chenying's voice is like the ice and snow here, and it makes people feel cold to the bone.

The cold wind was howling, and the snowy mountain road became even quieter. Everyone lowered their heads silently, feeling desolate and helpless in their hearts. Just as Gong Chenying said, as long as the other party surpassed them once and walked ahead, what would greet them would be an unsolvable death.

"I don't know what method the other party used to merge the two sects, so we have no choice but to kill them all the way."

Gong Chenying stretched out her bare hand, caught a fist-sized snowflake, and spoke as if to herself.

"Then kill them!"

The scar on Brother Wu’s face twitched, his face twitched, and he growled.

"kill"

"kill"

"Kill"... The voice began to become agitated.

"You old bastard, I'm going to give up my body here today. Are you satisfied now?"

The flesh on Mei Bucai's face was trembling, and he had long lost the grace of a rich young man.

"Is the little Taoist priest going to see the Three Pure Ones as well? Why not bring a few more alchemy boys with Taishang Laojun?"

Ding Yiwei raised his head, but his face was full of smiles.

The eyes of the two female practitioners, Mei Jingnian and Hu Ziyi, were red, and their jade-like fingers had lost all color from being squeezed.

"Uncle Gong... How many more levels do we have to go through?"

Hu Ziyi's voice was trembling. Her question startled the other cultivators, who had forgotten about this matter. Generally speaking, they had passed three levels now, and perhaps there was only one level left.

But Gong Chenying's answer made them a little disappointed.

"There are five levels in total!"

Everyone's eyes dimmed. There are still two levels? Under such circumstances, each level is a life-or-death struggle.

Gong Chenying took a deep breath. In that case, there was no need to meditate to recover. He might as well set off early to buy more time.

Just as she took a step, she suddenly stopped and looked at Li Yan, who had been standing in the snow with his head down and remained silent.

Li Yan said before that he had made some discoveries, but he has been silent since he came out. What does he think
