"What's wrong, Iron Lion?"
At the front, Bai Wuji, who was tearing off the soft wings of a blood-sucking monster with his bare hands and then delivering a fatal blow, turned around and glanced at his companions.
He met Iron Lion by chance in the Scarlet Forest. Both of them were attracted to each other's aura and had a brief fight.
In that fight, Bai Wuji finally used his full strength and did not use any secret items, special physique, or even the Bai family's exclusive secret skills.
Tieshi also had reservations, but Bai Wuji was not sure to what extent. What was certain was that this rough man who appeared to be a rank 5 was very strong.
Bai Wuji made the invitation based on his judgment that he was strong enough to stand shoulder to shoulder with him.
Iron Lion was invited to go along, and he readily agreed, and thus this odd pairing was born.
"nothing."
Tieshi said nonchalantly: "Maybe someone is saying bad things about me behind my back. I usually offend a lot of people, and this kind of thing happens a lot."
Bai Wuji showed a thoughtful expression: "We have reached the edge of the forest. In a few hours, we should be able to break through the forest. When we reach Wuming City, Yunfeng will most likely fight with me. In that case, his team members will have to rely on you."
"In fact, I have wanted to remind you for quite some time, Tieshi, or you should pay attention. I found that you are not reacting quickly enough to the attack and defense on the left side, which may become your fatal point."
Tieshi laughed loudly: "As expected of you, Master Bai. You are indeed a genius in martial arts. After only a few days of getting along with me, you have already discovered my weakness."
"However, if even Bai Shao thinks it is a shortcoming, then it means that my 'performance' is very good."
Bai Wuji was stunned for a moment: "You mean, that was a flaw you showed on purpose?"
Tieshi scratched his hair that was as hard as steel wire and said, "Not entirely. I have always had shortcomings in this area. My left hand was injured, and since then, I have never been able to recover to my previous level of attack and defense on the left side."
"But that's not a big problem. On the contrary, sometimes I can trick the opponent into attacking this direction. Then it's hard to say who will be unlucky."
Bai Wuji smiled, but re-evaluated himself in his heart.
Although he looks rough on the outside, he is surprisingly delicate in mind. He is indeed not a simple man.
At this time, Bai Wuji's waist vibrated slightly, and the communicator received a new battle report. He took it out and looked at it, his eyes changed slightly.
Tieshi noticed his abnormality: "Any new developments?"
Bai Wuji put away the communicator and said, "Nothing, but the team in the middle of the forest is in trouble. The latest battle report shows that the forest has launched a counterattack. A large number of black people and active plants are driving us invaders away with almost crazy momentum."
"Many teams suffered, some were directly wiped out, and most were driven back to the back of the forest. As a result, they will not be able to break through the forest in the short term."
"Now, the only ones who have a hope of breaking through the forest and approaching the nameless city are our teams at the top five gates and the armies at the fortress."
Tieshi lifted the sword onto his shoulder and said, "Then what are we waiting for? Let's keep going."
Bai Wuji nodded and said, "That's exactly what I meant."
After taking two steps, he reminded, "By the way, when fighting with Yunfeng's team members. The others don't matter, even if you kill them by mistake, it's no big deal, but one of them is the silver-haired boy, you can't kill him."
Tieshi was very surprised: "He is?"
Bai Wuji smiled and said, "He is someone our Bai family likes. If possible, we hope he will join the Bai family."
Tieshi touched his chin and said, "So, among all the people in the Yun family, it is that little guy who is the strongest? What a pity, I..."
Suddenly, a domineering and fierce aura fell on his head with great targeting. Tie Shi looked up and saw Bai Wuji looking at him expressionlessly.
"I'm not kidding you."
"If you set your sights on him, our journey will end here."
Now that the journey is over, are you going to send me on my way
Tieshi smiled and said, "I understand, Mr. Bai. I won't touch that guy at all."
The breath disappeared immediately.
Bai Wuji smiled: "Then we are still friends."
You are such a dangerous friend.
With a sigh, Iron Lion took big steps to catch up with the figure in front.
At the same time, outside the forest, Yunfeng, who was resting, received the same battle report.
“The forest fought back.”
After the others finished reading the latest battle report, Yunfeng said calmly, "It seems that this secret realm doesn't like us getting close to the Nameless City. But the more this is the case, the more curious I am. When Zilong comes back, we will set off."
Zilong came back half an hour later and all the team members were injured. They were attacked in the canyon.
Just like Tianyang said, there are dark people in the canyon, and they are not cannon fodder like ghosts and ghouls, but powerful dark people like screaming demons and invisible ones.
Moreover, Zilong and his companions also discovered some strange figures. Unfortunately, they had been discovered by the black people at that time and could not find out the truth. They obtained some intelligence about the canyon and provided the distribution and number of some of the black people.
In this way, the team will have a clear idea of what to expect.
"Then let's go!"
Yunfeng gently took off the two shotguns: "I can't wait to see the face of Mr. Bai when he fails at the last minute."
Really strong. Tianyang smiled, stood up, unsheathed the Moonlight, and walked to the left side of Yunfeng.
Before long, bursts of fire and light erupted in the canyon, and the screams of the black people echoed in the wind.
The four teams of the Yun family fiercely nailed into the canyon, cut a bloody path through the black people, and went away all the way.
I don’t know how long it took.
When Tianyang cut an invisible creature in half with his sword, the pressure suddenly disappeared. Looking forward, there were no more black people blocking the way.
They have fought their way out of the canyon.
Outside the canyon is a plain.
It was shockingly flat, with not a single thing protruding from the ground. No plants, no trees, not even rocks.
It was so flat, as if it had been flattened by a giant's sword.
Clearly this is not a natural environment.
After taking two more steps forward, Tianyang heard someone say "Huh?" It was Yunfeng.
Yunfeng stopped and stared at his feet intently, as if there was a flower growing on his feet.
Tianyang subconsciously looked at his feet, nothing unusual, good. Wait, the boy's eyes moved, and he finally realized that Yunfeng was not staring at his feet, but at the ground beside him.
It probably can no longer be called the ground, but rather a smooth surface that can even reflect reflections of crystals.
"Fire a flare."
The Voice of Yunfeng
As soon as the sound was heard, a flare was launched into the sky. Then, the light shone everywhere, allowing Tianyang and others to see clearly that after they left the canyon, the place they stepped on was actually a vast, even boundless, huge crystal!
Tianyang squatted down and tapped it gently with his hand. It felt hard and not easily broken.
He revealed his star energy again and punched down.
There wasn't even a crack on the crystalline ground.
I heard ding-dong sounds in my ears, and it turned out that other people were making the same attempt.
Yunfeng even fired a shot at the ground himself, but it only created a shallow pit the size of a bowl and one or two centimeters deep. Then, after more than ten seconds, the ground matrix regenerated rapidly and filled up the shallow pit.
"This is really... weird." Yunfeng uttered a word that he rarely said.
He took out a communicator, called up a picture, and showed it to Tianyang and others: "This is what the fortress looked like when we explored it before."
In the picture, there is also a city with a vague outline. But the ground where the city is located is normal, open and flat, but there are ups and downs. There are rocks that are higher than the ground and have strange shapes. There are trees with dense branches and leaves, but there is no such flat, smooth, huge crystalline matrix.
"Just like the Scarlet Forest that grew in just a few days, this place has probably changed only recently." Tianyang stood up and stopped trying to destroy the ground because that would be fruitless.
If Yunfeng and the others were not around, he could transform into "Ghost Face" and use the ability of the Mist Ghost Armor to penetrate entities to explore deep into the crystalline matrix.
Of course we can't do that now.
"Never mind, just keep going."
Yunfeng didn't want to waste time here, and apart from the change in the ground matrix, there were no other abnormalities here.
The young second master walked forward without hesitation, and the others followed. Tianyang put the moonlight back into the sheath, and when he was about to walk away, he felt something in his heart and looked down.
Right under his feet, the crystal matrix reflected his figure. Deep inside his figure, deep inside the matrix, a pair of eyes looked back at the boy.
These eyes had strange cross-shaped pupils, and they seemed to be observing Tianyang. Then, emotions such as surprise, joy, and fanaticism were revealed in them.
But at this moment, it disappeared and sank deep into the matrix. Everything was just like the boy's illusion.
"Tianyang, what are you looking at? Hurry up and follow me."
Zilong's voice came, the boy came to his senses, agreed, and followed.
That wasn't an illusion!
Something was looking at me.
Moreover, it seemed to discover something in me.
What could it be
Tianyang couldn't control himself, and many thoughts surged in his mind. Not long after, he saw a flowing and changing light, the light was like a curtain, rising from the crystal earth, zigzagging left and right, like a city wall.
Blocked everyone in front of the light curtain.
Behind the light curtain is the nameless city. It has no walls or gates, and only a simple "entrance" formed by the buildings on both sides.
But obviously, to enter the city, one must first pass through the light curtain. But the question is, is this seemingly fragile, dreamy, beautiful, and boundless light curtain so easy to break through
“This is the invisible force that protects the city.”
Yunfeng said in a deep voice: "It is consistent with the description given to me by the base command. Well, the height is slightly lower and the thickness is also much thinner. Is this because it has been weakened?"
