Zhu Luomu, who was a Dharma cultivator, knew that when fighting against a physical cultivator, he must never let the opponent get close to him. So after he knew that Zhang Ming was a physical cultivator and was good at a certain kind of body technique.
Zhu Luomu actually had the idea that even though he couldn't win the fight, he could still escape after knowing the other party's background.
However, facing those overwhelming mosquito-like monsters, he felt powerless.
At the same time, he also glanced at a large mosquito on Zhang Ming's left shoulder. Its body was crystal clear, but there was a black line on its back. He subconsciously took a step back.
The somewhat gorgeous mosquito stared at him with its pair of small eyes, looking him up and down, and its long mouthparts aimed at certain parts of his body intentionally or unintentionally.
Zhu Luomu had just seen how vicious this guy was. Even under this no-fly restriction, he was still incredibly fast.
Wherever it passed, the spiritual power of the monks from the four sects mysteriously disappeared without a trace in a few breaths. One can imagine that if one is stabbed by this long mouthpart, one's whole body will wither and die soon.
"Brother Zhu, you should leave quickly, or go and help others. Zhang likes to be alone, haha..."
Li Yan then began to drive Zhu Luomu away without any hesitation, while at the same time giving a few dry laughs.
He didn't want anyone to keep staring at him. If he accidentally revealed more of his secrets, he was afraid that he would lose control and suddenly kill someone.
Zhu Luomu certainly understood what Zhang Ming meant. Zhang Ming had a strange and cruel background, and he must have other secrets, so he didn't want to have close friends with others.
Glancing at the blood gullies on the ground that were as thick as rivers, he was already thinking.
“This time, the enemy invaders, apart from the three Jindan cultivators, probably only have a total of four to five hundred Foundation Establishment and Condensation cultivators.
You have killed more than a hundred people this time. This should be the largest team here. After all, they followed a Jindan.
The Cangyu Sect's Jindan was also killed by your sneak attack. How many people are left on the other side now?"
Zhu Luomu calculated that the number of people killed in ambushes on his side alone was more than thirty, not to mention the battles in other places. He estimated that it would be good if the enemy only had a hundred people left.
Of course, their "Falling Star Valley" side also suffered heavy casualties. Under the pursuit of the Cangyu Sect's Jindan, Zhu Luomu sensed that fifty or sixty people had died alone.
If Zhang Ming had not succeeded in the sneak attack, this group of cultivators would have been killed by now, and the enemy's cultivators who finally broke into the inner valley would have at least two hundred people left.
"Thank you very much, Fellow Daoist Zhang. You must also be more careful. The other side still has two Jindan cultivators. Farewell!"
Zhu Luomu was also very decisive in his actions. He decided to spread the news as soon as possible. This was good news that would boost morale.
Just as Zhu Luomu turned around and rushed out, Zhang Ming's cold voice came again.
"Fellow Daoist Zhu, the other party's Jindan died when he was careless, and you took advantage of the opportunity to self-destruct several magic weapons at the same time to kill him.
Fellow Daoist Zhu will not deny this, I hope you can inform the team of fellow Daoists who just left as soon as possible!"
Zhu Luomu, who had already flown away for some distance, suddenly shook his body violently. Then, he turned around, clasped his fists towards Zhang Ming from a distance, and quickly flew away again.
He understood that the other party had seen through his thoughts, but he would rather not have the credit and did not want more people to know the truth of the matter.
This Zhang Ming was able to save several of them and did not kill anyone to silence them, so it was obvious that he was a friend, not an enemy.
The other party acted without any scruples, and did not hide his intention from the Great Elder and the Sect Master. The cultivation level of this person showed that the two of them had already known about it.
Then, they will still meet in the sect in the future, so Zhu Luomu does not want to offend Zhang Ming and will naturally follow Zhang Ming's wishes.
However, he would report the matter to the sect leader again afterwards for final confirmation.
From now on, this matter will rot in his heart. Of course, he must warn Feng Qiyuan and others now, so as not to accidentally anger this mysterious person and then die without knowing how.
Just as Li Yan was ambushing Yu Rong, Xue Qianzong and Ning Ying were also caught in a sea of fire. They entered a cave while tracking Lin Xinghe.
The two of them carefully sensed the area and found nothing unusual, then they sneaked in cautiously.
In an underground secret room deep in the "Falling Star Valley", Tian Xingzi, whose breath was unstable, finally smiled as he watched two figures entering the cave.
After spending nearly an hour, he and Lin Xinghe finally lured the opponent into the largest killing formation.
Originally, this killing formation could be moved at will, but even with Tian Xingzi's cultivation at the peak of his powers, he was unable to do so and could only use it sporadically.
This formation was originally refined by the only Nascent Soul cultivator in "Falling Star Valley" for the purpose of promoting "Falling Star Valley" to a first-class sect.
It’s a pity that he never returned, and the power of the sect protection formation can never be fully exerted again.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have to lose a single person this time. If cultivators below the Nascent Soul stage entered, they could kill all the invading enemies if they could exert the full power of the formation.
A first-rate sect sounds like it is only one level higher than a second-rate sect, but its foundation and deterrent power cannot be compared to that of a hundred or so second-rate sects combined.
This is also the eternal desire of countless second-rate sects to give birth to a Nascent Soul cultivator. A Nascent Soul cultivator is the overlord of a world.
"Hehe, if you can use your spiritual sense to sense the abnormality of this killing array, then why would I have to spend so much effort on it
In just one hour, Xinghe was nearly killed by you four times, so it’s finally paid off.”
Tian Xingzi sneered in his heart. Lin Xinghe had narrowly escaped death several times, but he still ignored his injuries and lurked and harassed the other party twice.
This made Tian Xingzi admire Lin Xinghe a little more and look down on him a little less.
As Xue Qianzong and Ningying were walking forward carefully, suddenly, Xue Qianzong showed a hint of ridicule on his face. Seeing this, Ningying did not say anything, but followed Xue Qianzong in a sneaking direction. Xue Qianzong's cultivation was higher than hers, so he must have discovered something that she could not detect. This situation had happened several times before.
Then, Xue Qianzong was heard to simply transmit three words.
"Lin Xinghe!"
Xue Qianzong's spiritual sense swept across a dark corner of the cave, where there was an extremely tiny fluctuation of spiritual power, so small that it was almost negligible, making people think it was caused by the rotation of spiritual energy in the air.
But Xue Qianzong still keenly noticed that something was wrong. Compared with the surrounding spiritual energy, that slight fluctuation seemed more condensed.
By this time, they already had a basic understanding of the "Falling Star Valley" protective formation.
Lin Xinghe lured them into several formations several times. Although they were in danger, they were eventually able to break through them one by one. They almost killed Lin Xinghe who wanted to attack with the help of the formation.
They could feel that Lin Xinghe had escaped death four times, but it was not deliberate tricks; he really managed to escape by risking his life.
The two of them would not cooperate with each other. As long as Lin Xinghe was entangled once, Brother Jing would definitely die.
They also understood the other party's intention. Tian Xingzi was too seriously injured, so he wanted to use Lin Xinghe and the various formations and restrictions of the formation to kill the Jindan cultivators on his side.
But obviously, they overestimated the ability of their own sect protection formation.
The four sects also have a sect protection formation. If it is fully operational and a few Jindan masters work together to operate it, they may be able to actually kill a Jindan enemy.
But without so many experts joining forces to attack, it would be good enough if I could be trapped.
A second-rate sect's protective formation is mainly used to strangle cultivators below the Jindan level, and at the same time provide early warning to invading Jindan cultivators.
It is obvious that the person who is controlling the formation in "Falling Star Valley" is either not strong enough to unleash the power of the formation, or is seriously injured.
When facing the combined forces of two middle and late Jindan masters, he could only trap them for a while, let alone kill them.
"Is Lin Xinghe going to repeat his old tricks and attack them again? But he is injured after all. Even with the help of the formation, he can no longer perfectly control his aura."
Ningying also felt a sense of ridicule in her heart. Now that Lin Xinghe was injured, he was being exposed faster and faster.
She followed Xue Qianzong step by step. The two of them couldn't be too far away from each other, lest they fall into the other's trap and be separated and unable to join forces in time.
Soon, the two of them sneaked to the corner of the cave. After Xue Qianzong and Ning Ying looked at each other, their aura suddenly burst out, and the two of them each took out a magic weapon and attacked at the same time with lightning speed.
At the same time, they also sensed that the moment their figures suddenly appeared, the spiritual power fluctuations in the corner of the cave moved obviously and strongly, and they showed knowing smiles on their faces.
That was because Lin Xinghe was shocked by the sudden attack and could no longer restrain his aura.
But the next moment, the smiles on their faces froze, and when their magic weapons fell in an instant, a red light appeared in front of their eyes.
Along with the red light, long flames several feet long instantly appeared in the entire cave, whether it was the ground beneath the feet or the surrounding rock walls.
There was a sense of violence and rage in these flames. Before the flames even touched their bodies, they had already caused the spiritual energy in their bodies to run wildly and uncontrollably.
Xue Qianzong and Ning Ying were so frightened that they had to suppress their spiritual power desperately.
At this moment, a residual image passed through the sea of fire and hit Ningying directly from behind. In the crisis, Ningying reacted extremely quickly. A chill appeared on her face. She was too familiar with this magic weapon that attacked her. She had fought with it dozens of times before.
Suddenly, a long fox tail stretched out from behind her and rolled towards the afterimage behind her.
The two sides collided in a flash.
There was a loud "bang!" and Ningying screamed "Ouch!" as her delicate body was knocked five or six feet away.
Then, right where she had just stood, a green "pill" as big as a fist appeared there, circling around.
The next moment, the green "pill" flashed away again.
Not only Ningying was caught off guard by this sudden change, but even Xue Qianzong who was standing beside her was not expecting it.
Xue Qianzong had sensed the opponent's attack the moment it came, and he didn't feel strange. This was not the first time that Lin Xinghe had launched a sneak attack when the two of them were suddenly trapped in a formation.
They had already taken precautions against this, but Xue Qianzong did not come back to help. Instead, he was looking for where the restriction was that was suddenly triggered. Ning Ying also tacitly went directly to intercept Lin Xinghe's sneak attack.
Just this one decision brought about an unexpected result for the two of them. This time, Lin Xinghe's attack was enough to send Ningying flying with just one strike.
Although their spiritual power was surging at this moment, it was greatly inconsistent with the strength feedback from the previous fight, which was beyond the expectations of the two.
Before, Ningying alone had the strength to surpass Lin Xinghe.
"not good!"
In an instant, Xue Qianzong thought of an outcome.
All the other party did was wait for an opportunity, an opportunity to completely separate the two of them.
Therefore, Lin Xinghe had been enduring and maintaining his strength. Even though he was killed by himself several times and was on the verge of death, he never used his full strength.
