Qingzhou, Xiling country.
Elder Liu took Dutianwu's disciples and appeared at the foot of a mountain.
They were originally ordered by the suzerain Yue Qianlian to go to the Tanglin Kingdom to investigate the ruins of the ancient city that suddenly appeared in the Tanglin Kingdom and brought a large number of people mysteriously disappeared. The monarch of the country sent another message, saying that the ancient city appeared in Xiling Kingdom again.
The two countries, Dongling and Xiling, were formed by the split of a country called Qingling Kingdom in a longer period of time. The two countries have been at war for a long time. The method improved the relationship between the two parties. The current monarch of Xiling Kingdom is the son-in-law of the monarch of Dongling Kingdom.
Of course, the relationship between countries is not so simple. The establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries does not mean that the monarch of the Tangling Kingdom has let go of the vigilance of the monarch of the Xiling Kingdom. If the conditions are right, he will never mind digging the army in his son-in-law's hands, it is best to dig all his soldiers.
However, in this ancient city incident, there were also cultivators of the Jindan stage who were also missing. The situation was obviously beyond his control. The monarch of Dongling Kingdom was a cautious person, so he handed the matter over to Dutianwu. At the same time, it also reminded the monarch of Xiling Kingdom, so when the ancient city reappeared in the territory of Xiling Kingdom, the monarch of Xiling Kingdom sent people to control the situation, and did not let the nearby martial arts people and cultivators get close to the place. At the same time, he notified him through his father-in-law. The men and horses of Forging Tianwu.
After receiving the news, Elder Liu sent a disciple to bring the data and news back to Tiantianwu, and he took the remaining disciples to the location of the ancient city.
"Elder, the ancient city is there!"
One of his disciples pointed to the mountainside, Elder Liu looked up, and sure enough, halfway up the mountain, he could see a huge city. Compared with the surrounding mountains and forests, it looked very abrupt.
"Take out the puppet and move forward carefully!"
Elder Liu said in a low voice:
"All the disciples below the Nascent Soul Stage will stay in place to control the puppets, and those above the Nascent Soul Stage will follow me. Once you find that the situation is not right, you will immediately retreat!"
Hearing his order, the Dutianwu disciples who were present took out many humanoid puppets from their pockets. This kind of mechanism puppet was designed by Xuanfa Academy and made by Dutianwu. The price is high but the combat power is high. After learning, those who control them can also exert their strengths beyond their own cultivation realm.
The group of puppets brought by Elder Liu are the backbone of Dutianwu, and their combat power is above the Nascent Soul stage, comparable to the old monsters at the peak of the Nascent Soul. Among the middle sects, they also serve as the pillars of the elders or the head of the sect.
With an order, the Dutianwu disciples of the Jindan stage stayed where they were. Some of them were doing two things, manipulating these puppets and following in the footsteps of the brothers and elders of the same sect, while the elder Liu took the disciples above the Nascent Soul stage with him. The disciples, holding all kinds of powerful magic weapons in their hands, carefully flew up and approached the ancient city halfway up the mountain from mid-air.
Coming to the top of the ancient city, Elder Liu and a group of disciples looked down. The interior of the ancient city was surging with darkness as described. Even with the blessing of magic instruments, it was impossible to see the situation.
Elder Liu pondered for a moment, then raised the magic weapon in his hand like an ever-bright lantern. Driven by the powerful mana during the distraction period, the inextinguishable light swaying on the ever-bright lantern suddenly turned into a sea of fire soaring to the sky, spreading for several miles, hanging down from the fire cloud. Several fire dragons, under the control of Elder Liu, circled and roared and crashed into the ancient city.
The fire dragon slammed into the darkness that shrouded the ancient city, and then, just like it slammed into another world, the mud bull entered the sea and disappeared without a single wave.
"Sure enough?"
Elder Liu put away the sea of fire and further increased the vigilance in his heart.
He led the disciples to slowly landed in front of the city gate of the ancient city, and immediately, as if knowing their arrival, the city gate of the ancient city slowly opened automatically towards the inside.
"Run the mind method! Be vigilant!"
Elder Liu took a deep breath and shouted to the disciples at the same time.
At the same time, the disciples used the Forging Tianwu mental method to improve the resistance of their spiritual senses, and the next moment, a bell with a spiritual attack came from inside the ancient city.
A bell rang with a bang, and when it spread into the ears of the disciples, it turned into a terrifying buzzing sound, as if there were hundreds of thousands of people in your ears, constantly chanting indistinct words to you. Language, and it seems that there are hundreds of heavy hammers that are bombarding your spirit and will one after another. Fortunately, Elder Liu is on guard first, and let these disciples exercise their mental methods to resist first, so as not to let their spiritual consciousness directly Destroyed by this consciousness attack.
But even so, some disciples whose cultivation base was still shallow and lacked in self-cultivation were also shaken by this mental attack, causing their heads to go dizzy for a while.
A bell rang, and it seemed that they realized that these people could not be won by the sound of the bell alone. The situation in the ancient city changed again. The darkness in the city surging for a moment like a real object, and suddenly shook from the darkness. A group of wonderful humanoid creatures came out.
These humanoid creatures are pitch-black all over, as if they were directly generated from darkness, and there are white lines on their body surface, forming black runes one after another, which looks very strange.
After walking out of the darkness of the ancient city and seeing Elder Liu and the others, the "heads" of these dark creatures, which had nothing to do, suddenly cracked a large gap, which should be their mouths. These dark creatures roared at them, like a bell, and the roar was also mixed with the same mental attack, but it was much weaker than the bell.
While roaring, they moved their limbs and rushed towards the crowd. During the charging process, black flames dragged out from their limbs and bodies, which made the hearts of the Nascent Soul disciples of Forging Tianwu have an instinct in their hearts. sense of crisis.
Elder Liu waved his hand, and the light of the ever-bright lantern in his hand turned into a wall of fire, sweeping the black creatures that rushed out. After the flames passed, all the dozens of black monsters fell on the spot. The things began to fall off, revealing the bodies below, which were dead people one by one.
"Elder, those are the missing soldiers from Dongling Kingdom!"
Someone saw the clothes on several of the dead and exclaimed.
"Now is not the time to focus on that."
Elder Liu looked at the remaining half of the black monsters that stood up staggeringly from the ground. Although he just shot casually just now, after all, it was the flames inspired by the cultivators in the distraction period and the top-grade magic weapon of Forging Tianwu. Under the sea of fire, these Half of the black monsters are still alive, and based on their ability to fight, they are no worse than the cultivators of the Golden Core Stage.
"Get ready for battle!"
Elder Liu took a deep breath, but he still had no idea in his heart.
Dozens of the most common Jindan cultivators were really nothing to him, a distracted cultivator who was born in Duotianwu, a super-class sect, but Elder Liu remembered that there were quite a few who disappeared with the ancient city at that time. Thousands.
Moreover, there are also foundation-building stage, and even two monks of Jindan stage. Ordinary people and soldiers are possessed, and the last time they have the strength of Jindan stage. If even they are also attached by this darkness, then their strength, and How strong will it be...
Looking at half of the monsters roaring, Elder Liu held up the Everbright Lamp, and the lights of the Everbright Lamp flickered in his sight.
