The whirlpool created by the Alchemy Formation Stone grew larger and larger, eventually swallowing all the Fear Leeches.
In addition to the Fear Leeches killed by the other warriors, the mighty army of Fear Leeches was completely annihilated.
"Was that an Alchemy Formation Stone?"
Ling Xiao couldn't help but ask.
"Oh? You're an expert. You can actually recognize the Alchemy Formation Stone. That's right, it's specially used to deal with the Fear Leeches. We often take this route. If we didn't have such a thing to protect ourselves, we would have been killed by these monsters long ago. "
The Alchemy Formation Stone smiled and explained, "But don't worry, everyone. After this, there won't be any other danger. We can reach the inner part of Piping Island. Whether or not we can get the Heaven Essence Crystal will depend on your own abilities."
Everyone was originally discouraged and had low morale. After all, they had lost close to a hundred people in this battle.
They were all warriors of the Celestial Realm.
In the Heavenly Dragon Continent, warriors of the Celestial Realm were inner sect elders of a sect.
Even though the Celestial Realm warriors of the Divine Phoenix Continent weren't that valuable, losing so many of them in one go still made one's heart ache.
It was also quite frightening.
But after hearing the Alchemy Formation Stone, everyone became excited again.
After going through so many difficulties, there was finally a reward.
"Master, something doesn't seem right."
Cold Plum whispered to Ling Xiao when they were about to set off again.
"Yes, according to common sense, the Alchemy Formation Stone shouldn't be taken out by the First Mate. With his ability, he could have escaped with his life. If these people died here, they would have completed their mission. There's no need to bring everyone in safely. After all, it's normal for people to die in the smuggling process."
Ling Xiao nodded and said, "I suspect that there's something strange about this. They separated the warriors of the Avalon of Five Elements from us in order to weaken our abilities."
"Then what should we do? Should we continue to follow? "
Cold Plum asked.
"Let's follow. Even if it's a mountain of daggers or a sea of flames, we still have to go. After all, we're just speculating. We can't prove that this is a trap. Follow me closely later. If anything happens, I'll think of a solution."
Ling Xiao replied.
Although Ling Xiao's cultivation was not as good as Cold Plum's, Cold Plum felt that Ling Xiao's words were very reliable. She felt that following Ling Xiao would be very safe.
"Yes, Master!"
Cold Plum nodded.
"And that Ximen Bo, he's not a good person. You won't object to me killing him, right?"
Ling Xiao suddenly asked.
The reason why he didn't make a move when Ximen Bo plotted against him was because he wanted to give face to Cold Plum.
"It's true that Ximen Bo helped me, but I've already repaid all the favors that I owed him. If he wants to harm you, I'll definitely kill him with my own hands. If you want to do it yourself, I naturally won't object."
Cold Plum said solemnly.
"With your words, it's fine. Let's continue. I'll let him go this time. If he continues to be stubborn, I'll definitely kill him."
Ling Xiao didn't want to make things difficult for Cold Plum, so he didn't make a move.
After a while, the team in front stopped.
"We've reached our destination."
The First Mate said happily.
From here, they could clearly see that there was a man-made canal in front of them. Through this canal, they should be able to enter a building. As for whether it was Piping Island or not, they didn't know.
"Follow closely, don't get separated."
The First Mate walked into the canal first.
Although the people behind were a little hesitant, they had already come this far. Thinking about the Fear Leeches that they had encountered before, it wasn't very possible for them to turn back.
They might as well accept their fate.
Most of the people followed in.
However, there were some who were more cunning. They were afraid that something unexpected would happen, so they walked to the back of the team.
For example, Ling Xiao and that wretched old man.
The moment they entered the canal, Ling Xiao knew that his guess was right. This was definitely a trap, a huge trap.
Because he sensed that the entrance to the canal was actually the entrance to a large-scale formation. Once they entered, they would definitely not be able to return along the original path.
Not only that, inside this building that was filled with ancient aura, there were actually countless terrifying formations and formations that even Ling Xiao couldn't see through.
It was really too difficult to get out of this place.
This wasn't Piping Island at all. They were afraid that they had really been deceived.
"Cold Plum, be careful. Something's not right here."
Ling Xiao grabbed Cold Plum's hand. He was prepared to immediately escape if there was any unforeseen event. He definitely wouldn't take the risk.
After all, their lives were the most important.
Cold Plum's pretty face was slightly red. She silently nodded and followed beside Ling Xiao.
Ximen Bo's veins were popping out. He was so angry that he gritted his teeth.
"Hahaha, well done. This is your commission."
After walking for a while, an ancient martial art practitioner wearing metal armor suddenly appeared. This person's ability wasn't too strong. He was also at the peak of Four Symbols Heaven.
However, he was considered the top among this group of ancient martial art practitioners.
His words were directed at the first mate and the other two. He also transferred some spirit stones from his storage ring.
"The people of Piping Island are indeed straightforward. We will continue to send ancient martial art practitioners over in the future. Goodbye!"
The first mate and the other two sneered as they looked at the ancient martial art practitioners behind them. They revealed a mocking expression.
"What's going on?"
Some people still didn't understand the meaning of this scene.
"Still don't understand? We have been sold, just like those slaves."
Ling Xiao said coldly.
What!
After Ling Xiao's reminder, everyone came to their senses. No wonder they felt that something was wrong. They had actually been sold to do manual labor.
They couldn't control the ancient martial art practitioners with a higher level of cultivation in the Avalon of Five Elements. Hence, they had specially selected the ancient martial art practitioners with a lower level of cultivation.
What smuggling channel? They had simply been sold.
"Hahaha, you have guessed correctly. From now on, you are all slaves of Piping Island. If you work hard, you can still live. Otherwise, don't even think of leaving alive."
The ancient martial art practitioner in armor laughed heartily.
"Goodbye, a bunch of idiots!"
The first mate smiled at everyone and turned to leave.
"Where are you going? Leave your life behind!"
Although the wretched old man looked wretched, his ability wasn't weak among these ancient martial art practitioners. When he heard this, he immediately pounced forward, wanting to make the first mate stay behind.
No matter what the outcome was, he had to drag someone down with him. He couldn't suffer for nothing.
Bang!
Unexpectedly, when he pounced forward, he was punched down by the ancient martial art practitioner in metal armor.
Although they had the same level of cultivation, he was beaten up badly.
"That armor is strange. It shouldn't have been made by modern ancient martial art practitioners. There are divine writings from the primordial era on it. It should be able to strengthen one's combat power."
After all, Ling Xiao was a Formation Master. He was very familiar with formations and magic formations.
"Damn it, I don't believe in heresy. Let's attack together and kill this bastard!"
The rest of the ancient martial art practitioners were furious. Although they weren't as powerful as the wretched old man, they had the advantage in numbers. They couldn't possibly be frightened by a mere Four Symbols Peak ancient martial art practitioner.
