It was different from the team led by the red robed and green robed elders.
Mister Duanmu led the treasure hunting team.
They had not reached the fake tomb.
But they had already lost four people.
The shocking number of casualties far exceeded Mister Duanmu's expectations, if not for him trying his best to save them, the treasure hunting team would have suffered even more casualties. In the team, two Five Cauldron Divine Dragon Immortal Sect disciples were killed by the monster, even though Mister Duanmu immediately acted and killed the monster, their lives could not be saved. Another disciple of the Clear Wind Gate collapsed as he walked. He had been poisoned for some unknown reason.
The poison was extremely strong.
No matter which sect's antidote it was, it was useless.
In the end, Mister Duanmu could only watch him die from the poison.
When the fourth disciple passed the broken bridge, a giant bat silently flew over and grabbed him.
His companions saw this and attacked frantically, Mister Duanmu was even angered as he shot out a flying shuttle magic weapon, instantly blowing the bat's head apart. The giant bat brought the disciple and fell into the bottomless dark river, be it the bat or the person, neither of them floated up.
Maybe they were eaten by the monster at the bottom of the river.
Or maybe it was a whirlpool.
No matter which it was, it made Mister Duanmu's face as black as the bottom of a pot.
He never thought that the result of him leading the team alone would be this bad.
Twenty elite disciples from his sect, as well as fifteen disciples from other sects, before they even reached the entrance of the underground palace, four of them had already died.
This was just the beginning!
If they reached the tenth level of the underground palace, what would happen?
When they reached the first level of the underground palace, when Mister Duanmu saw the poisonous bugs crawling all over the ground, he knew that he had to seek help.
He was very unwilling.
But reality forced him to admit his failure.
If he insisted on leading the team, then the result would most likely be a complete wipeout.
"Light a paper crane!" Mister Duanmu's face was black, he got the handsome disciple beside him to use a magic weapon to send a message.
"Pa!" The handsome disciple who had a close relationship with Mister Duanmu took out a cotton box, after opening it, he carefully took out a small paper crane. With his shallow cultivation, it was not realistic to deal with a strong monster, but it was not a problem to light a warning paper crane. He raised his finger, drew a talisman in the air, and muttered something.
Half a minute later …
The paper crane in his other hand began to tremble slightly.
The handsome disciple pressed his finger between his eyebrows and drew a few more strokes. Finally, he pointed at the paper crane's head and shouted, "Ji!"
Under the touch of the paper crane.
Suddenly, he bounced up.
It flew several meters into the sky.
When it was about to fall, the paper crane spontaneously combusted without any fire. In the end, it quickly burned out and turned into ashes, returning to the earth.
This was a very high level Flamingo Spiritual Incantation of the Five Cauldrons Divine Dragon Immortal Sect. It was very famous among the various sects and was not something that ordinary disciples could learn.
Seeing the handsome disciple cast such a high-level spiritual incantation, the Five Cauldrons Divine Dragon Immortal Sect disciples all revealed looks of envy. As for the disciples of the other sects, how could the small sects have such a high level incantation to learn? As for the handsome man who was doted on by Mister Duanmu, they could not wait to replace him.
At this moment, the red-robed and green-robed patriarchs who were resting on the third floor of the fake tomb suddenly stood up.
"Duanmu has sent a warning!" The red-robed old man's expression changed.
"That's right! It's our sect's Flamingo warning. Could it be that Duanmu and the rest have encountered danger? "The green-robed old man also sensed it. He nodded and confirmed the red-robed old man's senses.
"You stay, I'll go take a look right away." The red-robed old man was very angry. Mister Duanmu had always made people feel at ease when he did things. He did not expect that entering the underground palace to go treasure hunting this time would go wrong. If everyone present was his own people, it would not matter. However, there were many outsiders here. It made the red-robed old man who loved his face a little embarrassed. However, he was not an unreasonable person. Since Mister Duanmu had sent a message through the Flamingo, it meant that he had encountered trouble. He definitely had to go and rescue him.
"I'm faster. I'll go!" The green-robed old man was even more protective of Mister Duanmu. He knew that if his second brother, who had a bad temper, went over, he would definitely be reprimanded.
"Go and come back quickly." The red-robed old man waved his hand.
Seeing the expressions of the two Empyrean old men, Elder Sui Feng and the others guessed a little.
However, who dared to speak carelessly at this time. Moreover, there were also disciples from their own sect in the team!
Elder Sui Feng pretended not to know and asked probingly, "Old Ancestor, is it Duanmu who led the team here? There are a lot of bugs at the underground palace entrance. We need to act cautiously. Why don't we go out together to receive them? "
The red-robed old man was very unhappy in his heart, but it was not good for him to flare up. He could only wave his hand in a muffled voice, "Old Third can go. Just a small matter, there's no need to involve so many people! It's true that there are many demons here, but there isn't a single one that can truly be a threat! Duanmu is cautious by nature, that's why he would use the Flamingo to warn! Everyone, make the best use of the time to rest. After adjusting, we'll go down to the eighth level in one go! Before the eighth level, we'll stop for a while, and finally, enter the tenth level in one go! Everyone, the secret treasure is right in front of us, the opportunity must not be missed. I hope that everyone will cooperate with our Five Cauldron Divine Dragon Immortal Sect and obtain the underground palace's treasure together! "
Hearing him say so, Elder Sui Feng naturally would not open his mouth to contradict.
As for the cultivators who had the intention to bootlick, they hurriedly expressed their stance, "How can we not obey the old ancestor's orders? This treasure hunt, we'll definitely do our best and do our best for the two old ancestors!"
A round of bootlickering.
Only then did the red robed old ancestor's expression turn slightly better.
He hoped that Duanmu could quickly bring the disciples to his side, lest these fellows who were all smiles on their faces, but who knew what they were thinking behind their backs laugh at him.
With the green robed old ancestor making a move.
He believed that even if there were thousands of soldiers and horses blocking the way, it wouldn't be a problem for his third brother.
Unlike the optimistic red robed old ancestor, when the green robed old ancestor returned the way he came, he noticed that there were even more worms in the underground palace. Perhaps it was the attraction of humans, or perhaps it was the demons driving them away or encouraging them, but the second level was filled with worms. The only thing that made the green robed old ancestor feel fortunate was that although there were many worms, there weren't many demons. Most of them were ferocious looking underground worms, and not demons with intelligence and demonic powers!
When the green robed old ancestor rushed to the entrance of the fake tomb.
He discovered that Mister Duanmu was leading the disciples to form an array.
Tens of thousands of worms were like a tide, swimming outside the array. There were all kinds of worms, and they weren't born from the same tribe, but they were working together, forcing dozens of people into a corner, with the momentum of drowning them at any time. The situation was extremely dangerous.
"Duanmu!" The green robed old ancestor flew up, floated over the worm tide on the ground, and landed beside Duanmu.
"Old ancestor, you're here!" Mister Duanmu was overjoyed.
It turned out that he was hesitant when he sent the warning.
He felt that he had embarrassed his elders.
But now, he didn't feel that way.
On the contrary, in Mister Duanmu's heart, he felt that it was a very smart and timely move to use the Flamingo to seek help in advance.
If the green robed old ancestor came a little later, even if it was ten minutes, he was afraid that the Insect Repelling Array that was drawn in a hurry wouldn't be able to withstand the worm tide outside. There were more and more worms outside, he had the protection of his treasures, so he didn't need to worry, but these thirty over people, they most likely wouldn't be able to escape! Now that he had summoned the old ancestor and saved the lives of the disciples, not only was it not a mistake, it was also a great merit!
Mister Duanmu didn't care about other people's feelings, but he had to be careful when dealing with the two old ancestors.
One had to know.
The Five Cauldrons Divine Dragon Immortal Sect's Sect Leader was old, and had the intention of grooming a successor.
In the sect, Duanmu was the best candidate, whether it was skill, wisdom or leadership, he was the best choice. But even so, it didn't mean that he didn't have any competitors. In the sect, the biggest competitor was the Sect Leader's son, who also had a body of skill, if not for the fact that his conduct was slightly inferior, Duanmu might not even have the qualifications to be nominated. In addition, there was an elder who was extremely talented, and was the previous Sect Leader's grandnephew, whether it was inherited bloodline or qualifications, he was not inferior.
Duanmu wanted to break through the three of them, and finally obtain the position of Sect Leader.
The support of the two Sky Venerable Old Ancestors was indispensable.
It could be said that not one could be missing.
The Sect Leader's thoughts were naturally passed on to his son, but unfortunately, the gold robed old ancestor, who also had a strong voice, did not agree. He recommended another person in the sect who was comparable to Duanmu, Elder Le Zheng.
And the red robed and green robed old ancestors, were Duanmu's supporters.
Between the two of them, as long as one of them changed his mind, then Duanmu would definitely lose the competition.
Therefore, if the two Sky Venerable Old Ancestors always supported him, and always became his biggest help, it was the key point of Duanmu's plan for many years.
"Everyone, use the Spirit Platform Sword Incantation!" When the green robed old ancestor came, he immediately took over the voice, and ordered all the disciples to prepare to attack. His orders, the disciples below all obeyed, even the disciples of other sects, also worshiped the green robed old ancestor like a god.
All the disciples raised their hands to form sword fingers.
Then gathered between the eyebrows.
Condensed a trace of spiritual energy.
Except for Duanmu, who continued to defend the array, everyone present, without exception, worked together.
The green robed old man was also satisfied with the performance of these juniors.
He nodded.
Then said: "When I say release, all of you point your sword fingers forward, do you understand?"
The disciples hurriedly answered in unison, deeply afraid that their performance was not positive enough, unable to satisfy this living immortal level Sky Venerable Old Ancestor.
The green robed old ancestor's left hand was still behind his back.
His right hand secretly formed a sword art.
He shouted: "Li Fire Sword Force, release!"
All the disciples hurriedly pointed the sword fingers that were pressed on their foreheads forward. Among them, there were strong and weak cultivators. The Sword Qis that were released varied in size, thickness and thinness, and all of them were different.
The green robed old ancestor did not care about this.
If he, only, used the hands of these disciples, to show his divine power as a Sky Venerable Old Ancestor.
But he secretly formed a sword art with his right hand forward, and all the sword qi released by the disciples all gathered into his palm.
After gathering those sword qi, the green robed old ancestor turned them into a sword-shaped flame, whistled, and fiercely chopped forward. For a moment, the whole space was unbearably hot, and breathing was suffocating. The sword-shaped flame, with a loud bang, chopped the body of the surrounding insects, from the rocks on the ground, deeply split open a crack. The raging flame shot in all directions, burning the bodies of countless insects, making sizzling sounds.
Some were cut in half on the spot.
There were also some that were burned to ashes in an instant.
There were also those that could not be burned to death, desperately jumping and crawling, spreading the flame to more companions.
This chop.
At least close to a hundred insects died, and then the splattering flame, burned and burned another two to three hundred underground strange insects.
Faster than when they came, the tide-like swarm of insects quickly retreated, they crawled rustling, and in less than half a minute, completely disappeared from people's sight. The insects retreated completely, if not for the insects' corpses that were still on the ground, the group of disciples could not believe that they had been surrounded by insects, and in such a large number.
"Old ancestor is divine!" Mister Duanmu was the first to offer words of praise.
"Old ancestor is divine, old ancestor is divine …" The disciples of the Five Cauldrons Divine Dragon Immortal Sect shouted excitedly.
"It's just an insignificant skill, not worth mentioning. In the future, if you work hard to improve, this sword will not be difficult!" The green robed old ancestor reprimanded his disciples, but there was a kind of joy flickering in the depths of his eyes, so full that it almost overflowed.
On the fifth floor.
Lin Dong suddenly burst out laughing for no reason.
Senior Sister was baffled, no one was joking, and no one was mentioning any interesting topics, why were you laughing foolishly?
Facing his Senior Sister's probing gaze, Lin Dong hurriedly explained: "I … Ah, it's like this, I suddenly thought of Ding Chunqiu, I realized that Ding Chunqiu is similar to Dongfang Bubai, they both love to eat flattery! Dongfang Bubai let people call him 'The sun rises from the east, only I am undefeatable', and also advertised to recruit disciples. Ding Chunqiu, on the other hand, directly let people call him 'Star Constellation Old Immortal, incomparably powerful'.
Senior Sister couldn't understand: "Even if it's Ding Chunqiu, what's so funny?"
Lin Dong thought about whether he should explain further.
However.
If he explained that he used the Heaven's Eye to spy on the green robed old ancestor's pretentious slash, he would have to explain the Heaven's Eye, and explaining the Heaven's Eye would be complicated … So he simply shut his mouth and did not say anything. Explaining this to Martial Cultivators was like explaining a hundred thousand whys to a child, why bother?
Senior Sister thought that people like Lin Dong were the most despicable, saying half of what he wanted to say!
