After a short while, Xue Ci was still standing in his original spot, but his face was abnormally pale. At the same time, his black hair had turned blood red.
The ground nearby was covered with densely packed sword marks and a huge ditch that was about seventy to eighty feet long.
"Since you were able to receive three sword strikes, it seems that you are even stronger than the rumors say. Since it is like this, I will agree to your alliance. However, if we obtain two or more Iron Feathered Eagle eggs, I will take two thirds. You don't have any objections to this, right? " The young girl from the Heavenly Moon Sect placed the snow white longsword back into the sheath on her back with a "qiang lang" sound.
"Who would have thought that your sword arts had been trained to such a level. My strength is far inferior to yours, so naturally we will do as you say." Xue Ci raised one of his arms and looked at his palm that was filled with fresh blood. With a bitter laugh, he replied.
"Very good, with the two of us working together, we should have a very high chance of dealing with these Iron Feathered Eagles." The girl from the Heavenly Moon Sect nodded her head. She then raised her head to look at the precipitous mountain peak not far away. A hint of killing intent flashed across her face.
… …
On an empty stone platform at the edge of the tallest mountain peak in the middle, Gao Chong, Feng Chan, and seven or eight other disciples from the various sects were gathered together. However, they did not attack each other. Instead, they were discussing something in low voices.
While they were talking, there would occasionally be people who could not help but turn their heads to look at the tall mountain peak not far behind them. Their faces were filled with greed.
… …
In a cave at the foot of the huge mountain, Lei Zhen's entire body was surrounded by arcs of electricity. Both of his hands held a small silver hammer that was similarly flashing with electricity. He was currently madly hacking at a huge black rock that was embedded in the stone wall.
Every time he waved, a thick silver arc would shoot out and fiercely strike the huge rock, causing it to tremble slightly. Traces of cracks appeared on its surface, which gradually widened and deepened.
After the time it took to eat a meal, Lei Zhen fiercely waved another attack with a loud yell. Immediately, the arcs of electricity on the surface of his body disappeared and he quickly put away the silver hammer. He then sat cross-legged on the ground and began to adjust his breathing.
At this moment, the aura on his body was abnormally weak. It was obvious that he had used too much Fa Li.
However, at this moment, a strange scene appeared on the black rock.
After the attacks stopped, the cracks on the surface of the stone began to slowly close up.
Not long after, the surface of the black stone became extremely smooth again, but it seemed to be a size smaller than before.
After a few hours, when Lei Zhen opened his eyes, his aura had finally recovered. He casually picked up a piece of rock beside him, and with a flick of his wrist, he threw it at the black rock.
"Boom!"
As soon as the pebbles were around 10 feet away from the black rock, they were suddenly pulverized by some kind of invisible power. At the same time, all of the powder drifted into the huge black rock and became a part of it.
"This won't do. The temperature hasn't dropped to a level that I can endure yet. I have to continue before I can take out the treasures inside."
Lei Zhen murmured. He looked at the darkness with a fiery gaze.
This black stone was discovered two days ago when he accidentally chased after a demonic beast.
When the demonic beast that was being chased approached the black stone, it turned into a bloody pulp and was sucked into it. Liu Ming immediately knew that he had discovered an extraordinary treasure.
Thus, for the rest of the time, he continuously bombarded the black stone with the power of thunder and lightning, which he was most proficient in, in order to wear down the strange external power bit by bit.
However, with the results of these two days of attacks, if he really wanted to wear down the strange power inside, he would definitely not be able to do it without ten days to half a month. However, fortunately, he didn't really need to squeeze out all of this power. He only needed to wait until it weakened to a point where he could defend against it. Then, he could forcefully approach the stone and use his totem to directly smash the stone and take out the item inside.
Although he didn't know the origin of this treasure, with its strange behavior, he absolutely believed that as long as he could obtain this item, his harvest in the secret realm would definitely not be inferior to others.
… …
In a hidden pool surrounded by shrubs, Jia Lan's eyes were flowing with purple light as she stood at the side of the pool. She was facing off against three small beasts with a horn on their heads and green scales all over their bodies.
These three small beasts steadily stepped on the surface of the water with their four paws and did not move at all. Their six eyes flashed with blue light as they stared straight at Calan without the slightest hint of fear. It seemed that they were also demonic beasts with naturally strong mental strength.
Behind the small beasts, in the center of the pool, there was another sparkling, light blue lotus floating on the surface of the water. Around it, there was a dense amount of water yuan qi.
After an unknown amount of time, Calan suddenly let out a muffled groan. Her body could not help but take two steps back in self-defense.
A blue light flashed in the eyes of the three small beasts. Their bodies also trembled as they took a step back.
Jia Lan took a deep look at the three little beasts. His body moved, and he disappeared into the bushes behind him, disappearing without a trace.
To her, to be able to find this "Water Yuan Lotus" in the secret realm that was very useful to her, it could be said to be a pleasant surprise.
This item would be very useful to her in the future. Even though these three unknown water attribute demonic beasts were difficult to deal with, she had to find a way to get rid of them.
However, she still had a long time to stay in the secret realm and this place was hidden enough. She did not need to rush to fight these three demonic beasts. It would not be too late to come back after she thought of a safe method.
… …
On the morning of the second day, when Liu Ming opened his eyes in a hidden valley, his energy and Fa Li had recovered to their peak.
Not far away from him, Yang Gan and the other two were also meditating and adjusting their breathing.
Liu Ming's awakening seemed to have startled them. After a while, the three of them stopped meditating and opened their eyes.
"Brother Yun, how is your strength recovering? You might be able to fight again today." Yang Gan asked the black-faced youth with some concern.
After he had finished investigating the movements of the demonic apes on the mountain, he had reunited with Liu Ming and the others last night.
"Don't worry, I have already completely recovered. I definitely won't make any mistakes." The black-faced youth stood up and stretched his arms and legs before replying with abnormal confidence.
"Very good. Since it's like this, let's act according to the plan today. I will go up the mountain again and use the head of the demonic ape from yesterday to lure the demonic apes down. I will try to limit the number to around two or three. If there are only two, Brother Yun and I will each take one. Junior Jin and Junior Bai will support us from the side. If there are three, the two juniors will each take care of one of them. Brother Yun and I will first work together to take care of one as quickly as possible. Then, we will immediately come to help you. "Yang Gan said seriously.
With regards to what Yang Gan said, Liu Ming and the others naturally had no objections.
Thus, in the remaining time, Yang Gan carried the somewhat shriveled head of the gray ape on his back and left the valley once again.
Liu Ming and the other two found a secret place to hide not far from the entrance of the valley.
Among them, Liu Ming hid in a large tree with dense branches and leaves while Jin Yu hid behind a pile of rocks.
What made Liu Ming speechless was that the black-faced youth actually stood arrogantly at the side of the entrance. He then raised his hand and released a pangolin puppet.
The puppet's body curled up and wrapped around the black-faced youth. Following that, the puppet's body changed shape and actually transformed into an enormous yellow mountain rock.
Its appearance was so realistic that it was impossible to tell whether it was real or fake even when standing close to it.
Time slowly passed by. After an unknown amount of time, a faint cry came from outside the entrance of the valley. Following that, the ground began to tremble with a "hong hong" sound, as if some enormous creature was quickly approaching.
Liu Ming took in a deep breath and without saying anything, he slapped the leather pouch at his waist. Immediately, a black light rolled downwards and the White Bone Scorpion appeared under the large tree wrapped in purple gas.
After communicating with his spiritual sense, the ghost immediately rolled into the mud and disappeared without a trace.
Jin Yu, who was behind the pile of rocks, also shook his sleeve and three balls of different colors rolled out. They quietly lay at his feet and did not move.
On the other hand, the black-faced youth, who was hiding in the enormous rock that the pangolin had transformed into, did not make any abnormal movements.
In this short period of time, the cry became louder and louder!
Suddenly, the sound of something tearing through the air could be heard from the entrance. Yang Gan shot in from the outside like an arrow. In just a few flashes, he had flown hundreds of feet away. Then, he turned around and stopped. With a serious expression, he yelled,
"There are three monster apes. Immediately act according to the plan."
As soon as he finished speaking, he made a hand sign with one hand and black gas rolled out from the leather pouch at his waist. A huge bone ghost with a bull's head and a human's body immediately appeared and let out a low roar as it stared at the entrance of the valley.
"Hong, hong, hong." After three loud sounds, three huge monster apes jumped in from outside the valley.
One was around thirty feet tall and had jet black fur all over its body.
The other two were around twenty feet tall and had grey fur. Impressively, they had the same appearance as the gray monster ape from yesterday.
Once these three monster apes jumped into the valley, they immediately let out cries and pounced at Yang Gan.
Yang Gan gave a snort and made a hand sign with one hand. The black gas on the surface of his body rolled out and condensed again. Immediately, it transformed into a huge black palm and fiercely slapped at the huge black ape flying in front of him. At the same time, the bull headed bone ghost beside him also rushed out with large strides.
At the same time, there was a "gabeng" sound from where Jin Yu was hiding. Instantly, three leopard shaped puppets that were around ten feet tall flew out from behind the pile of rocks. Their bodies moved and they pounced at the closest gray monster ape with lightning speed.
In the blink of an eye, they were fighting together.
On the other side, the body of the other monster ape that was running suddenly rolled to the side. The ground where it was originally standing split open and its two huge pincers missed.
However, before the huge ape could stand up, there was another "chi chi" sound in the air. Seven or eight Wind Blades shot out from the big tree that Liu Ming was on. With a few flashes, they arrived in front of the huge ape.
The gray monster ape let out an angry roar and suddenly stomped fiercely on the ground with its large foot. Immediately, the surroundings shook and a wall of earth actually shot out from the earth like lightning.
After a few "pa" sounds, the Wind Blades only left a few faint marks on the wall.
Under the infuriation of the ape, its body leaped several feet and directly pounced at the big tree that Liu Ming was on.
With this, the three huge apes were separated in the blink of an eye.
