"I didn't expect that there would be such a good environment in this sealed land." Long Boming praised while stroking his beard. Obviously, he was quite satisfied with this Wood World. On the way, they had experienced two completely different Earth Worlds, the Metal World and the Wind World.
The harshness of these two worlds was no less than the Earth World and Fire World that Lu Xuan had experienced. In the Metal World, the air was filled with a sharp metal intent. Even if one was walking slowly, it would feel as if someone was poking their body with an extremely sharp needle. If one dared to fly too fast, hehe, if one's strength was insufficient, one would be directly killed by the sharp metal intent.
As for the Wind World, it was truly called the Wind World. There were all kinds of wind. There were only some that one could imagine, but there was nothing that one couldn't see. Moreover, it was unpredictable, making it impossible to guard against. One moment, it was a gentle breeze, and the next moment, it could turn into a violent tornado. Sand and pebbles flew everywhere. Even a Virtualized Realm warrior might be swept away by the wind if they were not careful, suffocating to death in the center of the storm.
Now that they had arrived at the Wood World, Long Boming and the others felt as if they had been in another world. This was a normal place.
"Although the environment is good, we cannot be careless. This sealed land is full of danger. Now that the environment is so good, there might be a large number of souls hiding here." The one who spoke was Zhao Ying. She was also with Long Boming and the others.
Not only was Zhao Ying here, but there were also many people that Lu Xuan was familiar with: Zhao Binger, Chen Xiaohan, and even Ruo Xiangyi. This time, the leader of the Peony Palace wasn't Hua Yuling. After all, Hua Yuling hadn't broken through to the Virtualized Realm, and as the Palace Lord, she couldn't abandon the entire Peony Palace to come here. Therefore, the leader of the Peony Palace was also a hidden elder. Her status was similar to Wan Jingshan's.
Hearing Zhao Ying's words, Long Boming nodded in agreement. If they felt that it was a good environment, then the Soul Race would definitely feel the same. They hadn't encountered many Soul Race members in other regions. If it wasn't for the fact that there weren't many Soul Race members left, then the only possibility was that many Soul Race members were hiding in the Wood World.
"Everyone, be careful." Long Boming warned. Although he said that, he was not too nervous. After all, he was a seventh-level Grand Void Realm expert who had entered the advanced Grand Void Realm. His strength was extremely powerful, and he would not be worried about an ordinary attack from the Soul Tribe. Moreover, he was not the only Grand Void Realm expert behind them.
However, Long Boming did not know that their every move was being watched by Sikong Tiancai and the others. At this moment, the people from the Illusory God Sect, the Sikong Clan, and the Soul Race were rapidly approaching them.
While Sikong Tiancai was able to use the power of the Tree of Life to control trees to attack from a distance, he still had to get close if he wanted to unleash his full power. Otherwise, Lu Xuan would not have been able to easily chase him away with a single move of the Glorious Sun.
…
Lu Xuan had been wandering around the World of Wood for an entire day, but it had been a very peaceful day. The entire forest was extremely quiet, and no soul beasts or spirits came out to cause trouble. That tree demon, which was probably the Tree of Life, did not continue to attack him.
These abnormal phenomena made Lu Xuan even more certain that there was something strange about the Wood World.
At this moment, the token hanging on Lu Xuan's waist suddenly vibrated violently, emitting a piercing sound.
Lu Xuan's expression changed slightly. He quickly picked up the token and glanced at it. He then said in a deep voice, "It's a distress message from the Nangong Clan."
Lu Xuan's message token was given to him by Nangong Lie before he left. It was for him to take care of Nangong Lie's disciples if he encountered them. He did not expect it to come in handy so soon. The distress message was so intense that they must have encountered great danger.
"What do you plan to do?" Bing Ling turned to Lu Xuan and asked.
Lu Xuan held the token that was still vibrating. He thought for a moment and said, "I want to go and have a look. First, to save people, and second, to investigate the strangeness of this forest. The tree demon escaped last time. Now that the Nangong Clan is in trouble, they might also be attacked by the tree demon. It's a good opportunity to investigate!"
"If that's the case, then don't delay. But be careful," Bing Ling said.
Lu Xuan nodded. He used the token to sense the direction of the person who sent the message. Without hesitation, Lu Xuan rushed over.
At this moment, about thirty people were lying on the ground about thirty miles away from Lu Xuan. They were dressed in different clothes, and they belonged to different sects.
The Nangong Clan was naturally there. They were desperately activating the token, hoping that someone would come to rescue them. Aside from the Nangong Clan, the Myriad Shark Island and the Jiuehua Alliance were also surrounded.
The people from the Jiuehua Alliance were none other than Long Boming and his people!
Long Boming was still standing with his sword in hand. His eyes were wide with anger as he glared at the people in front of him. He didn't seem to be in a good state. He had clearly been through a fierce battle, and he was injured.
But at least he was still standing. He could fight. The people lying on the ground were dead. Lu Xuan didn't know if they were alive or dead. Among them, there were a few faces that were very familiar to Lu Xuan.
Zhao Binger and Ruo Xiangyi's faces were black, and their lips were cracked. They lay unconscious on the ground, motionless. If it weren't for the occasional rise and fall of their chests, they would be no different from the dead.
Chen Xiaohan, on the other hand, was in better shape. Although she was lying on the ground, she was still conscious. There was a trace of blood at the corner of her mouth. Her left hand was on the ground, and her right hand was clutching her abdomen. She looked like she was in great pain.
"Elder Zhao, Sister Bing 'er and Xiangyi are in bad shape. Please think of a way to save them. I'm afraid they won't be able to hold on." Chen Xiaohan endured the pain and looked up at Zhao Ying.
Zhao Ying's hair was a mess, and her right arm was bleeding. But she still gripped her sword tightly, and stood in front of Zhao Binger and the others.
Listening to Chen Xiaohan's words, the anxiety in Zhao Ying's heart was no less than Chen Xiaohan's. She had watched Zhao Binger grow up, and their relationship was like that of a mother and daughter. Now that she was poisoned, her life and death were unknown. Her heart was practically dripping blood. Every second that passed, the poison in Zhao Binger's body would deepen. If this continued, she would definitely die. Ruo Xiangyi's situation was almost exactly the same as Zhao Binger.
"Oh, so few people have come. This isn't enough to satisfy my appetite." Sikong Tiancai looked at the people in front of him, who were either standing or lying on the ground, and chuckled. "Continue to send messages. When you call for help, they might be able to save you. You have to hurry. That's right, the poison of my Sikong Clan isn't that easy to endure. If we delay any longer, even if someone comes to save you, they'll only be able to save a corpse."
"Sikong Tiancai, I never thought that your Sikong Clan would be so deranged!" Long Boming bellowed angrily, "The reason we entered this sealed land this time is to exterminate the remnants of the Soul Race and return peace to the Heavenly Sword Continent. However, you actually colluded with the Soul Race and plotted against your own!"
Sikong Tiancai sneered. He extended a finger and shook it gently. "Old Man Long, you're wrong. I'm not the one who colluded with the Hun clan. This credit should be given to the Illusionary God Sect. After all, the Illusionary God Sect has also benefited greatly from the Hun clan, right?"
"Jackals of the same lair. What's the difference?" Long Boming spat angrily. "Those who are not of the same clan must have different intentions. Even if you collude with the Hun clan and kill us here, what's the use? By then, the Hun clan will definitely swallow you whole! "
Sikong Tiancai snorted coldly. "You don't have to worry about that. All you need to know is that once I kill you, the entire Heavenly Sword Continent will become the territory of my Sikong Clan and the Illusionary God Sect."
"Sikong Tiancai, we're both from the Octagonal Sacred Palace. How dare you attack my Nangong Clan so viciously. I think I need an explanation." A member of the Nangong Clan bellowed. His name was Nangong Yang, and he was the younger brother of Nangong Lie. His strength had reached the fifth level of the Grand Void Stage, but he never thought that he would be defeated by Sikong Tiancai.
Sikong Tiancai shifted his gaze to Nangong Yang and said slowly, "Why should I explain anything to you? Do you think the Sikong Clan doesn't know what your Nangong Clan is thinking? From now on, the Nangong Clan is no longer a member of the Octagonal Sacred Palace. The Nangong Clan of the Octagonal Sacred Palace is no more! "
Hearing Sikong Tian Cai's words, Nangong Yang could not help but be slightly stunned. He did not expect Sikong Tian Cai to be so straightforward. Everyone was well aware of the conflict between the Nangong Clan and the Sikong Clan, but they did not break the veil between the two clans. The Nangong Clan had also kept a low profile. Who would have thought that the Sikong Clan would finally make a move? Furthermore, they had chosen to do it in the sealed grounds. Facing Sikong Tian Cai, Nangong Yang did not have the slightest ability to resist. He could only desperately send a message, hoping that Nangong Lie would receive the message and rush over.
He knew that Nangong Lie's true strength was at the eighth level of the Grand Void Stage. Once Nangong Lie arrived, he, a few other Grand Void Stage experts, Long Boming who was at the seventh level of the Grand Void Stage, and He Ridi from the Myriad Shark Island might stand a chance.
At this moment, He Ridi, who had been silent all this while, finally raised his head. He Ridi was the younger brother of He Ritian, the leader of the Myriad Shark Island. Although his strength was not comparable to his brother, he was also at the seventh level of the Grand Void Stage, just like Long Boming.
He Ridi did not look at Sikong Tiancai. Instead, he looked at a green-clothed person next to Sikong Tiancai and said slowly, "Zuo Cen, you and I have known each other for a long time. Although we are not sworn brothers, we are not strangers either. The relationship between the Myriad Shark Island and the Illusionary God Sect is not bad. Are you trying to kill us now?"
