There may even be two practitioners who are above the second level of the peak of Martial Emperor. Such strength has exceeded the overall strength of Yang Qi's team of four.
These were just the local practitioners that the five practitioners encountered. There would be more practitioners in the settlement, and there might even be even more powerful ones, powerful ones at the third level of the peak of the Martial Emperor.
It would not be easy for Yang Qi and his three companions to force their way through, let alone avoid the activities of the practitioners in the settlement.
Emperor Jiuyan looked at the leading cultivator in front of him and suggested, "Fellow Daoist, the cultivators in the settlement are so powerful, why don't we join forces?"
"Okay!" The leading practitioner nodded slightly.
If they didn't want to join forces with Yang Qi and the other three, they wouldn't have communicated so much with them. After all, they paid a price to get all this information. The two sides were just casual acquaintances, so how could they easily share the information they had worked so hard to get
Immediately, the practitioners on both sides swore an oath to God. This world has some similarities with the world created by Luo Ying that Yang Qi had experienced before, and they both believe in the God who created this world.
Through simple communication, Yang Qi and the other three also learned that the leading practitioner, who was at the second level of the peak of Martial Emperor, was named Qin He, and the other practitioner, who was at the second level of the peak of Martial Emperor, was named Zhao Yuan.
The five practitioners who were originally present belonged to three teams, a total of nine people, but four of them had already died along the way. Two of them were eroded by special creatures in the dark gray fog area, one practitioner died near the blood river, and the other practitioner died when facing the worms.
Up to now, the original team of nine practitioners has only five people left.
After hearing Qin He's words, Yang Qi and the other three were shocked but also grateful. They didn't expect that the danger level of this space was so great. Three teams joined forces, and two practitioners at the second level of the peak of the Martial Emperor, but four practitioners died.
You know, at the peak of Qin He's team, the strength was almost twice that of Yang Qi and his team, but even so, four peak martial emperors died. On the other hand, Yang Qi and his team did not even encounter any existence that threatened their lives along the way, which must be said to be very lucky.
During the conversation, Yang Qi and his four companions also learned from Qin He and his four companions that in the previous fight with the local practitioners, they had suffered some losses and had no choice but to retreat here to heal their wounds. It was at this time that Yang Qi and his four companions arrived.
This is also the reason why, knowing that the strength and means of Yang Qi and his four companions were not as good as those of themselves, Qin He and his four companions were still alert when they saw Yang Qi and his four companions.
Of course, although Qin He and his team suffered some losses due to their delay, the losses were not particularly large. After all, they had previous experience. Once they sensed danger, Qin He and his team would immediately choose to evacuate. After all, their team had lost four companions at the peak of the Martial Emperor level along the way. If they continued to take risks, they might all die here.
"Are the strength and capabilities of those local practitioners so strong?" Emperor Yaoyue looked at Qin He and said.
You know, according to what Qin He said, the number of local practitioners is equal to theirs, and their strength is also similar. Logically speaking, Emperor Qin He and others should not suffer losses, or even be forced to retreat.
Emperor Yaoyue undoubtedly asked the question that was in the minds of Yang Qi and the other three. They were of equal number and at equal levels of cultivation. Logically speaking, the practitioners of a cultivation civilization that had developed over countless years should be stronger than these native practitioners.
Qin He heard this and said with a wry smile, "Their strength is not actually that strong, but their methods are extremely special."
Special means
After hearing Qin He's words, Yang Qi and the other four were startled at first, and then they realized that Qin He and his five companions might not suffer any loss from their opponents. After all, the practitioners in this space were definitely different from those in the outside world. Before Qin He and his five companions understood their opponents' methods, it would be normal for them to be careless and suffer some loss.
Seeing the expressions of Yang Qi and the other three, Qin He knew what they were thinking, and he said solemnly, "Fellow Daoists, we are not careless at all. Four of our companions have died along the way, and we dare not be careless. It is because their methods are too strange and special that we have suffered a great loss."
Um
Looking at Qin He's serious look, Yang Qi and the other three were slightly stunned. There was really no need for Qin He to lie to them about this matter. Could it be that the methods of those local practitioners were really too strange and special
Emperor Jiuyan looked at Qin He and asked solemnly, "How strange and special are their methods?"
"I don't know how to put it." Qin He paused for a moment and continued, "When you see it with your own eyes, I'm afraid you will have a deeper understanding."
What
Hearing Qin He's words, Yang Qi and the other three's faces changed again. You know, Qin He is a Martial Emperor at the second level of the peak, and even in the outside world, he is not weak. But even such a cultivator didn't know how to describe the strange methods of those local cultivators. How could Yang Qi and the other four not be surprised
At the same time, this also made Yang Qi and the other three even more curious. What kind of strange methods did those local practitioners have
Qin He and the other four had not fully recovered yet. Only after they had fully recovered did they set off, ready to continue going deeper into this space.
But before the group had gone far, Yang Qi's brows furrowed slightly, because he found that the route taken by Qin He and the other four seemed to be a little wrong.
Logically speaking, since Qin He and his five companions had already encountered local practitioners, they should avoid their settlements and the direction where they had fought with local practitioners before, so that it would be easier to avoid them. After all, according to what Qin He said, if they encountered a team of local practitioners active nearby, they might not be able to take advantage of them, so they should avoid them.
However, the direction in which Qin He and the other four led everyone was moving in a straight line, as if they were heading towards a certain destination, and they had no intention of avoiding other existences.
Thinking of this, Yang Qi's expression froze, and he immediately secretly transmitted a message to inform Emperor Jiuyan and the other two of his discovery.
"My three fellow Taoists, there seems to be something wrong with the route Qin He and the others took. They are moving in a completely straight line, with no intention of avoiding other beings at all."
Um
After receiving Yang Qi's message, the three of Emperor Jiuyan were slightly startled. They recalled the direction they had taken along the way and immediately found that what Yang Qi said was true.
There was indeed something wrong with the route Qin He led them to take, which meant that Qin He and his four companions were probably hiding something from them. This was not good news!
