On the other side of the Crying Ghost Ridge, 2 people looked ahead quietly from the cliff.
In front of them, the black fog in the distance had slowly turned gray over the past few days. Up until now, the person that they were waiting for had not shown up.
Hao Xue turned around and remarked softly, "Brother Zhu is probably doomed."
Fang Cheng's expression was rather ugly. He already knew this would happen when the deadline of a month had passed, but he still clung onto that last sliver of hope. Now that another five days had passed, he knew that his last hope had been shattered. Even if Zhu Guanhao did not die, his body would be invaded by the Yin Qi and become a lunatic.
In comparison, Fang Cheng would rather choose the former than face a lunatic friend.
A figure flashed as a black-clothed and masked man stood behind them.
The two of them didn't dare show any disrespect to the Venerate of the Yellow Spring Sect. Even though they knew that the reason Zhu Guanhao hadn't come out was probably because of some Yellow Spring Sect disciple, they simply couldn't say anything. After all, even Ding Liyin did not know about this.
"Why haven't you left yet?" Ding Liyin was rather displeased. "Since your partner hasn't come out yet, you won't have a chance anymore."
He purposely glanced at Hao Xue. If he did not know about the relationship between Changzhou's Hao family and Great Ancestor Netherworld, he would not have cared about the lives of the 2 juniors.
"We'll leave now." Hao Xue sighed and asked after a pause, "Senior, may I ask how many brothers from your sect have returned successfully this time?"
Ding Liyin's sinister gaze turned towards them. Whether it was Hao Xue or Fang Cheng, both of them shuddered at the same time. They felt as if they were being stared at by a venomous snake.
After a long time, Ding Liyin answered, "Only 2 of them came out, and they both failed. None of them advanced to the Cauldron Foot." His voice was filled with endless emotion. "Although Crying Ghost Ridge is a good place to cultivate, for assassins like us, the probability of failure is relatively high."
As assassins, most of them were cold and gloomy. No matter how successful they were, they would always have a dark side in their hearts. Once they arrived at the Crying Ghost Ridge, their ability to resist the Baleful Yin Qi was indeed slightly inferior.
This was also the biggest headache for the Yellow Spring Sect and the Assassin Guild of the West.
However, if they encountered such an opportunity, they would still send out suitable candidates. However, it was often difficult to achieve the best results.
Hao Xue and Fang Cheng exchanged glances. Both of them were extremely shocked.
Just as Fang Cheng was about to speak, Hao Xue immediately gave him a look and pulled him away.
After the two of them ran for several miles, Fang Cheng said, "Brother Hao, why are you doing this? Are you suspecting that Venerable Ding is lying?"
Hao Xue shook his head and said solemnly, "I'm not suspecting Venerable Ding, but I'm suspecting that someone in Yellow Spring Sect has already successfully cultivated the Cauldron's Feet and assassinated Brother Zhu. However, after he succeeded, he should have left the Yellow Springs Sect and didn't go to see Venerable Ding. "
Fang Cheng exclaimed, "That's impossible. The Yellow Springs Sect should know the consequences of betrayal."
Hao Xue chuckled and said, "As long as there are enough benefits, nothing is impossible. There was a traitor in the Yellow Springs Sect in the past, but very few people know about it. "
Fang Cheng finally found out about the secret, but if he was not aware of the relationship between the Hao family and the Yellow Springs Sect, he would not have believed it so easily.
After a brief moment, Fang Cheng asked, "What should we do now?"
"Let's go back," Hao Xue said coldly, "Tell the seniors in our clan about this and ask them to meet the great ancestor."
When Hao Xue mentioned Old Ancestor Yellow Spring, his words were filled with extreme confidence. It was as though everything would be solved as long as the great ancestor was willing to make a move.
Fang Cheng's eyes flashed with the same look, and he nodded hard.
Following that, they heard a ghost-like howl coming from the gray Crying Ghost Ridge.
Hao Xue shook his head and sighed. "Let's go."
The two of them walked together and were already far away in a moment, so they did not know that after they left 50 kilometers away at their fastest speed, another long howl was heard from the other side of the Crying Ghost Ridge. Moreover, this long howl did not have the slightest hint of violence or madness, but it was full of a passionate and unyielding will.
After hearing this howl, the other two venerables who were still around the Crying Ghost Ridge lurked in the direction of the howl in unison.
※ ※ ※
Following He Yiming's long howl, the Five-element Ring in his hand began to spin.
Strange rays of light flashed from the Five-element Ring, and the momentum and confinement force around him began to spin as well.
Not only that, but the dust on the ground was also swept up by this force, and countless gravel were mixed in it. With He Yiming as the center, a tornado strangely appeared.
This tornado contained a huge amount of power, and everything close to it would be completely bounced away. Not only that, but it was also like a huge wheel, slowly whittling away the true energy that Gabri was using to trap him.
He Yiming's face was in high spirits. He had created this by referring to the special method of resisting external forces of the essential Qi in the Feng Shui Treasure Fan. This combat skill was extremely effective against the confinement force of a venerable.
In the Feng Shui Treasure Fan, the amount of essential Qi left by Zhu Guanhao was far less than that of He Yiming, but by relying on this method of Feng Shui circulation, He Yiming's huge power could be completely resisted. From this, it could be seen how powerful this method was.
At this moment, He Yiming used the rotation of the Five-element Ring to form a continuous rotating force of fire, earth, and metal. The result was so good that it was beyond He Yiming's expectations.
The fusion of the 3 powers allowed the Five-element Ring to unleash enormous power. The Flower of the Wind's power was not mixed in, but the tornado that was caused was still formidable, and it forcibly broke Gabriel's confinement power.
A hint of surprise appeared on Gabriel's face. He had fought countless people, but this was the first time someone had been able to break through his Shackling Cultivation Method like this.
Nonetheless, he scoffed and said, "You have some tricks, but it's still not enough."
After saying that, a white light suddenly appeared in his outstretched hand. This was a mist, but it had already condensed into a solid body in an instant.
It was so fast that He Yiming only saw a flash of light before a giant sword appeared in Gabriel's hand.
When he took a step forward, the ground shook and the mountains swayed. Under the oppression of his enormous momentum, it seemed like the entire mountain shook.
He Yiming naturally knew that the other party's strength had yet to reach such an exaggerated level. The reason why he had such a feeling was because of the other party's aura.
When Venerable Ones fought with others, their powerful auras were also one of their special weapons. Sometimes, just the suppression of their auras alone could make powerhouses below Venerable One scared out of their wits, such that they did not dare to fight back or escape.
Even so, He Yiming was not afraid at all. He channeled all of his essential Qi into the Five-element Ring, causing the outermost layer to spin faster like a wheel of wind and fire. Following that, He Yiming carried the tornado that soared into the sky and charged toward Gabriel.
"Hiss …" A deafening tearing sound was suddenly heard. The seemingly awe-inspiring tornado around He Yiming was forcibly slashed open by Gabriel's heavy sword.
The heavy sword seemed to have the power of a sea-stabilizing needle. Once the wind came into contact with it, it instantly lost its momentum and became gentle before it finally stopped.
He Yiming's face changed slightly, but he was already like an arrow on a bow, and he had to release it.
The Five-element Ring spun much faster. Around him, 3 visible flowers were faintly discernible, and they surrounded his body. Above his head, a vast amount of Qi of the universe surged from the Baihui Ring. This attack was the most powerful attack that he could unleash with the Five-element Ring.
After Gabriel tore the tornado apart with his sword, he did not withdraw his sword and retreat to accumulate power for another attack. Instead, he continued to slash with his sword.
"Ding …"
Suddenly, a loud and clear sound burst out.
Gabriel's body trembled slightly, and he immediately stood as straight as a mountain. As for He Yiming, he could no longer stand stably. With a whoosh, he flew out.
Gabriel's sword was so mighty that it was far from what he could resist head-on.
If it was not for the fact that He Yiming's Five-element Ring was mighty and that Gabriel's heavy sword was only an ordinary Divine Soldier's weapon, he would not have just been sent flying by the attack.
A lofty look appeared on Gabriel's face. He took another step forward and caught up to He Yiming, who was retreating without touching the ground. He waved his heavy sword, which became delicate and full of suction force.
He Yiming immediately complained incessantly. It was clear that Gabriel wanted to trap him with the delicate sword technique to consume his physical strength and essential Qi bit by bit.
Although Ou Yangming had plenty of Qi of the universe in his Baihui Acupoint, how could he compete with a Venerable One? Unless he was really crazy.
Ou Yangming tried to get far away several times, but Gabriel's sword technique was like a dense spider web. It wrapped around him until he was exhausted, and he could not get away. He was furious. He stood still and was about to use the Overturning Heaven Seal when he saw Gabriel withdrawing his sword and jumping away. Moreover, the young fellow had a serious look on his face. It was clear that he was on guard against something.
He Yiming was slightly startled. He immediately heard 2 soft sounds, and his face changed. Without saying anything, he turned and fled.
He unleashed his wind-mastery power to the extreme, and it took him only a brief moment to rush into the Crying Ghost Ridge.
At this point, he took a deep breath. When he thought about the 3 Venerable Ones outside, he became ruthless.
He had no enmity with the 3 powerhouses, but he did not expect them to stick to him like plasters. 'They're going too far.'
He retrieved a bottle and opened its cap, then he counted the number of Fasting Pills inside.
When He Yiming raised his head, a rare ferocious look appeared on his face. He stretched out the Five Element Ring, and his expression was solemn.
In his heart, he had already made up his mind.
'Damn it, if you have the ability, then wait outside. I'll go out after I become a Venerable One …'
PS: Five thousand has been updated. White Crane is asking for a guaranteed monthly vote.
Please give me confidence, and let the White Crane have the motivation to work harder. 'Tomorrow is still five thousand.'
He Yiming thought to himself, 'If you have the ability, then vote for me. The monthly vote is Viagra. If you eat me, you'll have power and become a Venerable One tomorrow …'
'Also, I can't go on Q tonight. I have to accompany you to play. Children's Day happens once a year, and it's the last Children's Day in kindergarten ^ _ ^. So, please forgive me. (To be continued.
