"Why do you still want to run? Our boss said that if you hand over half of the things in your pockets, you can leave. If not, he will drag you down and share it with the brothers."
The black fatty couldn't take it anymore when he saw how Huapi was in the limelight. He waved his thick blade and blocked in front of them.
Hey! This fatty has a future, he really understands me. Actually, Du Feng didn't tell him to do that, but the black fatty's idea was exactly what he wanted. These fellows were destroying things from above, so he had to make them spit out blood and pay a price.
"This Black Skin is so annoying, let's fight it out with him."
Shi Xiang was such a coward and couldn't take it anymore. Asking them to hand over their resources was worse than asking them to die.
"Aiya, so you know my nickname. You'll have to hand it over first."
The black fatty's nickname was Black Skin. He stared viciously at Shi Xiang and walked towards him. The thick blade in his hand gave off a cold energy. The other desolate people followed his actions and pressed towards Shi Xiang.
"Kill!"
Who knew who couldn't take it anymore, but he shouted and slashed with his sword. Once they started fighting, they couldn't stop. The two sides stood together, the blade lights and sword shadows were really intense. The sect disciples were all trained, and along with the fact that they had more people, they did have an advantage at the start.
But as time went on, under the pressure of the formation, their stamina started to drop. Compared to the desolate people who were used to the ruins, there was an obvious gap.
"Putong! Putong! "
The disciples of the two sects were knocked to the ground. The desolate people were good at tying people up. They pulled out ropes and tied them up tightly. Not long later, only Lin Zhigang, He Jiangtao, and Du Xue were left.
"Senior Brother, let me talk to them. This can't go on."
Du Xue defended while discussing with Senior Brother Lin. If this went on, it wouldn't just be a matter of money. If they were really kidnapped, would they be cut into pieces and eaten like Zhao Zhi?
"I promised Master to protect you and the Princess. Now that the Princess has met with misfortune, you must not go down there."
In fact, Lin Zhigang didn't know that the princess he was talking about had been trapped in a mud ox cave and died. There were three disciples from the Snow Mountain Sect who were killed because they wanted to rob Du Feng. The one commanding the Desolate Men in the cellar was also this enemy.
"I think Junior Sister Du is the only one who can solve this problem now."
He Jiangtao's hair was a mess and his clothes were torn. He was panting heavily. If this went on, he wouldn't be able to hold on.
"Our boss said to let this lady go down and have a chat. Maybe he'll spare your lives."
Hua Pi received Du Feng's telepathic message. His two nostrils were raised in the air, and he had a cocky look on his face.
It's over, it's over. It seems like this monster likes to eat tender ones. Lin Zhigang pondered for a moment and felt that this matter was unreliable. But after Du Xue heard about it, she insisted on meeting him no matter what. Just like that, Du Xue followed Hua Pi down the stairs and into the cellar. The rest of the desolate people guarded the two teams of disciples outside.
"It's you!"
Du Xue originally thought that the boss of the desolate people would be a terrifying person with three heads and six arms. But when she took a closer look, this person looked familiar. It was actually the young master who was flying in the sky with a small flying boat. He entered the Burial Grounds not much earlier than her. How did he conquer this ruin and become the boss of the desolate people?
"I've embarrassed myself in front of you."
Du Feng also recognized Du Xue. This lady had worked at the auction house back then and had even signed a spiritual contract with him. Although he was greedy, he couldn't rob a girl's things. But those people outside had to be taught a lesson.
"Hehehe, let's do that."
In the end, the two of them discussed and came up with a rotten idea. They let the desolate people above take away many of the living resources of the two sects' disciples. They also took some of their crystals. As for the weapons and armor needed for the exploration, they left them behind to protect their lives.
"Junior Sister, are you okay?"
Lin Zhigang had been on tenterhooks. What he was most afraid of hearing was that scream. Zhao Zhi's scream had already scared him. If his Junior Sister screamed again, he would definitely be punished by the sect when he returned. In the end, not long after, when their resources were all plundered, Du Xue swayed her waist and walked out flirtatiously.
"I'm fine, I'm fine. Senior Brother, are you okay too?"
Du Xue almost couldn't hold back her laughter. She knew that her Senior Brother and the others had been plundered and her heart ached to death. But she couldn't tell them the truth, because not only did she not lose anything, she also got a share of the loot.
"Ah, I'm fine, I'm fine."
Lin Zhigang touched the storage bag in his arms and thought to himself: Fortunately, I didn't bring many crystals this time. Those food and drinks were taken, so be it. They weren't worth much anyway. That Shi Xiang from the Qingyang Sect was miserable. He brought a pile of crystals and was completely plundered. Because he resisted a few times, his nose was flattened and his eyes were swollen. His originally handsome smiling face was now crooked and unrecognizable.
The two teams ambitiously entered the Burial Ground to make a fortune, but they were robbed by the Desolate Dwellers and left the ruins dejectedly. Before they even reached the Skeleton Crypt, their ambitions had been reduced by half.
"Senior Brother, why don't we kill our way back?"
The more Shi Xiang thought about it, the more unconvinced he was. He felt that he had been beaten unjustly. If they had attacked from the outside with spells, they might have had a chance of winning.
"Let's go, it's useless to go back."
Du Xue was too embarrassed to say it out. With his appearance, he wouldn't even be able to survive a poke from Du Feng's finger.
"Junior Sister Du, I have a question. Didn't you go to the crypt for anything else?"
Not only Shi Xiang had doubts, but everyone in the Azure Dragon Squad had doubts. Du Xue was from the Snow Mountain Sect. Why didn't she get eaten and come back safe and sound? Why didn't Zhao Zhi from their squad come back after going down?
"That's right, Junior Sister. How did you get out unscathed?"
Lin Zhigang was curious too. Who did Junior Sister Du meet after going down to the crypt? How did she talk to their boss? Why didn't she come out unscathed? She seemed to be in a good mood. Although the Snow Mountain Sect didn't lose much, they still suffered some losses.
"I think you colluded with the Desolate Dwellers and schemed against us."
Shi Xiang couldn't hold it in anymore and said what he was thinking. He had been robbed the most and wanted to go back to take revenge, but Du Xue stopped him. This definitely wasn't right.
"You are slandering us. If you have the ability, go back yourself. Don't drag us to our deaths."
Du Xue was unhappy too. She was kind and worried that everyone would get hurt again, but Shi Xiang actually said that she colluded with the enemy and schemed against them. Since that was the case, let them go. As long as the Iceberg Squad didn't go, it would be fine.
"Let's go, what's the big deal!"
Shi Xiang felt that he was being looked down upon by a woman. He couldn't accept it, so he turned around and ran back to the ruins.
Aiya, he actually came back. In order to rope in Zhao Zhi, Du Feng gave him face and didn't kill the Azure Dragon Squad. After everyone left, he left with Zhao Zhi in another direction. Before he left, he didn't forget to leave crystals for the Desolate Dwellers and teach them the method to activate the Extinguishing Spirit Array.
"Haha, I knew they were bluffing."
When Shi Xiang returned to the vicinity of the ruins, he realized that the restriction that was suppressing the Cultivation had disappeared. He thought for a while and didn't dare to go any closer. He prepared to attack from the outside. As long as he destroyed this place, he could take all the treasures that the Desolate Dwellers had obtained for himself. He had to be fast. If he took too long, Senior He and the rest would definitely find him.
Actually, everyone was a little unconvinced. After all, they lost because they were suppressed and their True Essence was captured. If Shi Xiang was fine after he returned, everyone wanted to go back and snatch the treasures. But before they could turn around, they heard a series of strange cries.
"Ji ji ji …"
What was that sound? It sounded like a bird chirping and a baby crying. The sound wasn't loud, but it was very messy.
"It's the Vampire Bats. Everyone, get into formation!"
Lin Zhigang, who was experienced, was the first to react. Before he left, he had heard his master's instructions. There were three things to guard against in the Burial Grounds. First was the Death Tornado. If you encountered it, you would die. You had to wait for it to pass before stepping into the gray line. Second was the Vampire Bats. Once you encountered them, you had to immediately isolate your Blood Qi. As long as the Vampire Bats smelled your Blood Qi, they would definitely suck you dry. Third was the remains of giant beasts. In the Burial Grounds, there would be some giant skeletons that would occasionally emit phosphorescence, giving people the feeling that there was a shocking treasure inside. If anyone touched those skeletons, they would have a mental breakdown and their brains would explode. They would die without knowing why.
"What should we do? Junior Shi is not back yet."
He Jiangtao saw that the situation was not good. If he had known earlier, he would have stopped his junior brother from leaving. During this short period of time, the people from the Snow Mountain Sect had already formed the Ice Screen Formation under Lin Zhigang's command. A semicircular ice screen covered the people from the Ice Peak Troop like a pot lid. At the crucial moment of registration, they obviously still didn't trust the people from the Azure Dragon Troop.
"Formation!"
He Jiangtao also gave the order to form the formation. Everyone from the Azure Dragon Troop put up a protective shield and connected together to form a huge shield. Just as they finished, a large group of Vampire Bats arrived as promised.
"Bang, bang, bang …"
There were so many Vampire Bats. Even if they weren't locked on, they would continuously crash into the shield. Each of them was not small and had a sharp beak like a bird. However, there were densely packed sharp teeth inside, making them look rather terrifying. If one was bitten by this thing, one would definitely lose a piece of flesh. They didn't even need to suck blood. Just this large number of them was enough to tear a person apart.
"We don't need to do anything. The Vampire Bats are here."
Hua Pi originally wanted to activate the Soul Extinguishing Formation and go out to deal with Shi Xiang. Du Feng had taught him that as long as he added yellow crystals, he would be able to expand the range of the Soul Extinguishing Formation and catch martial artists off guard. However, before he could go out, some of the refugees saw a black mass of Vampire Bats coming over from the observation hole.
"Hehe, this is going to be a good show."
The black fatty grinned and also went to the observation hole to take a look. Their cellar was very deep and they could completely sense the blood energy on their bodies. Vampire Bats would never attack cellars. However, that kid outside was going to be in trouble soon.
"Oh no, Boss is also outside."
Hua Pi finally reacted. Although the direction in which Du Feng left was not towards the direction of the Vampire Bats, they were flying in the same direction. Based on this speed, they should be caught up soon. He paced around anxiously, but he didn't know what to do. The refugees didn't have Quintessential Essence and couldn't use voice transmission talismans. They could only be anxious.
"What is that!"
Shi Xiang also heard the chattering sounds. He looked up and saw a dense mass of people flying in their direction. He didn't react at first. When he got closer, he took a closer look. It was a group of giant bats. Each of them was the size of a rooster. When they opened their beaks, they revealed rows of teeth. They looked very disgusting.
"Die!"
He had been suppressing his anger and had nowhere to vent. Now that he could use Quintessential Essence, he wouldn't be afraid of a group of bats. He waved the sword in his hand and a sword qi slashed towards the bat swarm. This sword was indeed very powerful. Following the trajectory of the sword qi, a row of Vampire Bats exploded into blood mist.
"Hahaha, a group of beasts dares to provoke me."
Shi Xiang laughed proudly. When his Quintessential Essence wasn't suppressed, his combat skills were very powerful. The black fatty who was hiding in the cellar grinned. If there were no restrictions, all of them combined wouldn't be able to withstand a single combat skill. Why couldn't they learn combat skills? This was too unfair.
"Ji ji ji …"
The Vampire Bats were obviously angered by Shi Xiang's actions. A large number of them gathered over. At first, there were a few hundred of them. Soon, it became a few thousand. The black mass looked very terrifying. Some of the bats that had flown over turned around and came back.
"Xiao!"
When they gathered to a certain number, they seemed to have received an order and attacked Shi Xiang at the same time.
"Courting death!"
Shi Xiang waved his sword and continuously released sword qi. The Vampire Bats in the air were killed. Large pieces of their limbs fell from the sky. The scene was very bloody.
"Hahaha, this is great!"
Shi Xiang laughed loudly. He didn't even notice that he was drenched in blood. This was too great. All the grievances from before had been swept away. After killing the Vampire Bats, he would go to the ruins and slaughter those Desolate Citizens. Just as he was laughing proudly, the originally gloomy sky turned completely dark. When he raised his head to take a closer look, he was dumbfounded.
A large number of Vampire Bats gathered together, covering half of the sky. They were in a fixed shape. On a closer look, it looked like a bat spreading its wings. Looking from afar, it looked like a huge Vampire Bat flying in the sky.
"Look over there!"
A Junior Brother reminded Senior Brother He to look at the sky far away. He saw that strange scene. He estimated that it was near the ruins. Junior Brother Shi Xiang happened to be there.
"Come on, do you think I am afraid of you?"
"Dragon Soaring Nine Abyss, Eagle Soaring Sky, Beast Fusion!"
Shi Xiang looked at the large number of Vampire Bats in the sky. Not only did he not hide, he also summoned Beast Fusion. An eagle's cry could be heard. Huge wings grew out of his body. He wore something that looked like a helmet that covered his face tightly. He was fully armed.
"Let's go!"
