After learning from An Li that Wutan had a magic weapon that could capture the spiritual veins, the three of them rushed over.
Later, when they saw the terrifying vision, they concluded that the spiritual vein was still there, and the heavy stone in their hearts finally fell.
However, facing more than a dozen ferocious beasts, the three men were quite powerless, and they had no choice but to wait for the strong men of the Qingxu tribe to arrive.
Finally, after sacrificing more than a dozen people, everyone, with injuries of varying degrees, finally broke through the encirclement of the ferocious beasts and entered the tiankeng.
However, what they never expected was that there was not even a single fire element essence in the tiankeng, let alone a fire element spirit vein.
What was even more unexpected was that there were eighth-level trapping and killing bans set up here, especially the killing ban, which had a lethality comparable to a full-strength attack from a minor success repairer. The final killing move could even kill a major success repairer.
Fortunately, An Li and the other two were all saints of their respective sects, so they had some means to save their lives. They narrowly escaped the disaster, but were still seriously injured. None of the people from the Qingxu tribe who went with them survived, and all were buried here.
In comparison, An Li and Yin Yuhong were better off. Both of them were fire spirit bodies, and injuries of this degree could be healed in ten days or half a month.
However, Bai Zhu is different. She is a wood spirit body. Although she has powerful repair ability, her essence has been exhausted after this battle. If she wants to recover, it will probably take half a year unless she has a large amount of spiritual medicine.
Who are they? When have the saints and saintesses of the top sects in each continent, who have lofty status, transcendent identities, and are admired by all, ever been treated like this? Such calculations
Normally they are the ones who scheme against others, but because of their status and strength, they are too lazy or even disdainful to scheme. As long as they receive an order, everyone will be respectful and obey it.
And this time, he was actually tricked so badly by Wu Tian. If he hadn't reacted in time and used the last means of saving his life, he would have been buried here like the others, with no body left!
This was the first time such a thing had happened to them since they were born. For these favored girls and sons of heaven, it was a great humiliation. Their faces were burning and their self-esteem was seriously hurt.
At this moment, An Li and the other two had only one thought in their minds, which was to tear Wutan into pieces and grind his bones to ashes.
Otherwise, it will be difficult to relieve the hatred in your heart and to calm down your anger!
"Wutian, I, Baizhu, swear I will not be a human being if I don't kill you." Baizhu's face was frosty and his voice was icy and chilling.
"An Li, I agree to form an alliance with you on the condition that you give me all the information about Wutan," Yin Yuhong's eyes flashed with murderous intent. No one had ever made her take her so seriously. Obviously, Wutan had completely angered her this time.
“Whether we form an alliance or not, Wutan is our common enemy. I will naturally tell you all his information. But before that, we must rush to the Black Mountain Tribe and spread the news that Wutan has obtained the spiritual vein. Hehe! When the Black Mountain Tribe chief finds out, he will definitely settle accounts with Wutan. A war is inevitable, and we can reap the benefits,” An Li sneered.
As soon as the words fell, the three of them spread their wings of light and quickly flew towards the Black Mountain Tribe. As for the dead people from the Qingxu Tribe, they didn't even look at them, showing ruthlessness and indifference.
…
One day later, the news that Wutan had obtained the fire elemental vein spread in the Black Mountain Tribe. No one knew who spread the news, and it could not be confirmed, but based on the importance of the fire elemental vein, everyone chose to believe it.
For a time, the Black Mountain Tribe was in an uproar. Everywhere there were people, people were discussing this matter. Even other tribes got the news and sent their strong men to fish in troubled waters and get a piece of the pie.
There are many first-level tribes among them.
In just half a day, strong men gathered in the Black Mountain Tribe, and some evil spirits also came one after another. There were all kinds of people, but they were all very low-key, hiding in the dark, silently paying attention to the development of the situation.
After all, anyone who can capture a spiritual vein must possess powerful means. If things go wrong, you might not only fail to gain any benefits but also lose your life, which would be a loss.
"Wutian..."
Heisha sat on the animal skin throne, muttering these two words over and over again. His face was extremely gloomy, but there was a hint of helplessness in his eyes.
There were so many people gathered in the Black Mountain Tribe, he naturally knew, and he knew their purpose very clearly. If it were normal days, he could just send people to drive them away or kill them, but this time it was different, many of them were strong men from the first-level tribes, if he angered them, the consequences would be disastrous.
As for the person who secretly spread the news, he really hated him. If it weren't for this person, there wouldn't be so many people coveting it. But one thing is undeniable, it was because of this that he was able to find out who had taken the spirit vein.
Suddenly, a man in a black robe appeared out of nowhere beside Heisha, then knelt on one knee and bowed respectfully, "Greetings, Master!"
Heisha took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "What results were found out?"
The man in black robe glanced at Heisha and moved his lips, as if he had some reservations and wanted to say something but stopped himself, looking as if he couldn't start talking.
Seeing this, Heisha frowned and said, "Just say it directly."
After pondering for a moment and swallowing his saliva, the man in black robe spoke: "Master, according to my investigation, the leakage of the fire element vein may be related to the young patriarch."
“What do you mean?” Heisha’s pupils shrank and he clenched his fists so tightly that you could hear the crackling sound, but his tone was extremely calm.
Seeing this, the man in black robe broke out in cold sweat, soaking his clothes. As a subordinate who had followed Heisha for so long, he knew very well that his current master was the most dangerous. He did not dare to be negligent and hurriedly told in detail everything he knew.
"So that's how it is. No wonder you asked so many inexplicable questions a few days ago. It turns out you were trying to find out the whereabouts of the spiritual vein. Haha! Not bad, really not bad. What a traitor you are!" Heisha laughed in anger, his white hair flying, with murderous aura and murderous intent coexisting.
"And where is he now?"
"When I came back just now, I accidentally saw the young chief leaving the tribe alone. Judging from the direction he was going, he should be heading to the red leaf forest," the man in black robe said truthfully.
"It seems that he is going to meet the so-called Wu Tian. I am so lucky to have such a good son who joined forces with outsiders to deal with his own father. Haha! Since you are unfaithful and unfilial..."
At this point, Heisha laughed, as if mocking himself, but also as if he was heartbroken. Then his face darkened and he said in a decisive tone: "You must give orders immediately. From now on, Hei Chengwu is no longer the young patriarch. And Hei Ba, if you know about this and don't report it, you will be dismembered!"
"Master, you absolutely cannot do this. The young patriarch might have had some compelling reasons and made a big mistake. I beg you to take back your order," the black-robed figure pleaded hurriedly.
"Stop talking. I have made up my mind. Go quickly and come back soon. Then follow me to meet this so-called Wu Tian. I want to see who is the person who can make my son obey my orders."
As he spoke, a terrifying evil spirit suddenly burst out of his body, and the black evil spirit seemed to have transformed into a ferocious beast, causing the black-robed man beside him to tremble with fear. He quickly stood up and rushed out of the hall, issuing orders one after another.
He could have waited until he had dealt with the matter at hand before asking him in person. If everything was true, it would not be too late to remove Hei Chengwu from his position as the young patriarch. But at this moment he did not want to delay at all, which showed how disappointed Hei Sha was with his son.
After a while, the man in black robe came back. Heisha stood up and waved his hand. The big animal skin chair began to move slowly, revealing a dark passage.
"Let's go!"
After a greeting, the two people walked in one after another, and after they left, the big animal skin chair slowly closed automatically.
This secret passage was actually the same one that Wu Tian and the others were in at the moment, except that one side led to the location of the spirit vein, and the other side led to the outside of the Black Mountain Tribe. As long as they passed through this secret passage, they could avoid the eyes and ears of those evil spirits and sneak out of the tribe quietly.
Heisha's original intention of digging this secret passage was to prepare for emergencies, but he didn't expect that it would actually be used now.
It was a coincidence that at the same time that Heisha and the other man entered the secret passage, Wutan and Yetian just happened to arrive here. Fortunately, the two dodged in time, otherwise they would have collided head-on.
The two men hid at the entrance of a secret passage, staring at the two strangers. There was no need to guess their identities. One of them must be the patriarch of the Black Mountain Tribe, because only he knew of the existence of the secret passage.
"They are acting sneaky, there must be something fishy, let's follow them and see what's going on," Ye Tian transmitted.
Nodding, the two of them quickly followed, but after turning several corners, the two people in front of them disappeared.
Heisha was much more familiar with this place than the two of them. After a little understanding, he knew how to get there, and his speed was naturally faster than the two of them.
"It doesn't matter. Just follow the marks and you'll know where they're going."
In this way, two groups of people, one in front and one behind, rushed in the secret passage, but until the end, Wutan and the other man were unable to catch up.
…
Let’s talk about Hei Chengwu.
As soon as he walked out of the tribe, he ran straight to the red leaf forest, which was the dense forest where Shan Youde was.
He was a smart man and knew that Wutan would not bring all the people to look for the spiritual vein. At most, he would bring Ye Tian with him, because the remaining three people did not have high cultivation base and would only be a drag if they went. So he concluded that these three people must still be in the Red Leaf Forest.
Since these three people are here, Wu Tian will definitely come back to find them after he obtains the spiritual vein. And the purpose of his trip is naturally to ask Wu Tian to cancel the soul contract.
Wutan is from the ancestral land, and he will definitely leave immediately after obtaining the spiritual vein. If he comes too late, won’t his life be controlled by others for the rest of his life
So, when he learned that Wutan had obtained the spiritual vein, the first thing he thought of was to come here and wait.
When he arrived at the place where he was ambushed a few days ago, as expected, the three men were really here. After hesitating for a while, he still did not enter the trapped area, but sat on the spot outside the restriction.
"Hey! You scum, why are you here?" Shan Youde was surprised. Logically, this person should stay away, but why did he come here on his own initiative
"He came here just to ask Brother Tian to cancel the soul contract. You couldn't even think of such a simple truth. I call you a pig, but you still refuse to admit it," Zhang Ting rolled his eyes and said with disdain.
"I see."
After hearing Zhang Ting's explanation, the fat man finally came to his senses, and then swaggered out of the restriction, hooking his arm around Hei Chengwu's neck, looking like close friends, as intimate as they could be: "Scum, how are Wu Tian and Ye Tian, have you found the spiritual vein?"
Hei Chengwu glared at the guy with angry eyebrows, and felt more and more that this damn fat pig really deserved a beating. If his soul had not been controlled, he would have pressed him to the ground immediately and beat him severely, turning him into a fat pig completely.
He simply slapped off the arm that was as thick as his thigh on his shoulder, retracted his gaze, and said lightly: "Found it."
"Rebellious son, it was you who leaked the secret!" At this moment, an angry voice suddenly exploded from behind him, and not only Hei Chengwu, but also Shan Youde and the other two changed color.
