Half of their strength!
Chapter 837:
"What's going on?"
The explosion of the transmission array caused the martial artists who had just entered the hall to reveal looks of horror.
"Not good! Something exploded, everyone, run! "
Among the martial artists, there were martial artists with powerful soul perception that changed their expressions. Without much time to think, they immediately used their secret techniques to escape.
However, the speed at which these martial artists retreated was clearly slower by half a beat.
Rumble!
A huge shockwave came from the depths of the hall. Like thunder from the nine heavens, it struck everyone in the blink of an eye.
"Ah! My eyes! If I had known, I wouldn't have come! "
"Dugu Forest is indeed a burial ground!"
"I didn't think that our Nine Cauldron Divine Pavilion's eighth branch would fall here."
"Nonsense! Our seventh branch also couldn't escape this calamity!"
"…"
All sorts of screams and shouts resounded in the hall.
Some martial artists who didn't have time to escape the hall were blasted into mincemeat, dying on the spot.
But even those martial artists who left the hall didn't have a good ending. They were either injured or crippled.
At this moment, the entire hall was purgatory on earth.
Puchi!
At the same time that the transmission array exploded, an old man in a mountain range suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Damn it! They actually destroyed the transmission array! "
The old man was furious to the extreme.
But the old man couldn't do anything. From where he was to Dugu Forest, it would take at least a few hours.
Since the transmission array was destroyed, it meant that the enemy would definitely leave Dugu Forest!
After a moment of silence, the old man turned around and dashed towards the Corpse Dragon Mountain Range.
"Wait for me to recover from my injuries, then I'll go investigate!"
The old man's figure gradually blurred and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Sha sha!
In the depths of Dugu Forest.
The huge destructive power of the transmission array's explosion directly destroyed the hall.
In front of the hall, there were dozens of corpses lying haphazardly.
On the other side, there were seven or eight martial artists who were still breathing. They were lying under a large tree, panting heavily.
"Damn it! I didn't think that our eighth branch would suffer such heavy losses!"
Under the towering tree, a young martial artist in his twenties said in a cold voice, "When I find Gu Yuan, I'll definitely ask him!"
"Why are you asking?"
Beside the young cultivator, a cultivator dressed in blue said coldly, "It's all because of your men. They said that Gu Yuan found a treasure in the depths of Dugu Forest. Otherwise, why would our Seventh Branch come here?"
"Xu Shun, what is the meaning of this? I didn't force you to come here. How can you blame me for this? "
Hou Lei was furious.
Although it was a message from his informant, he did not force Xu Shunqiang to follow him.
Moreover, Xu Shun hadn't said anything along the way. Who would have thought that now that they were in danger, Xu Shun would start to ramble.
If not for the fact that his strength was slightly lower than Xu Shunge's, Hou Lei would have even killed Xu Shunge on the spot!
"Hou Lei, stop pretending. Don't think that I don't know what you're planning." Xu Shun was also very angry and said, "Let's not talk about anything else for now. Right now, you and I can use 50% of our strength. In my opinion, we should join hands and enter the ruins of the main hall. No matter what, we must find Gu Yuan!"
"This matter is not reliable. Who knows if Gu Yuan is injured?" Hou Lei frowned.
"Who cares …" Xu Shun said coldly.
Cough cough!
However, before Xu Shun's words fell, a dry cough sounded out from the ruins of the main hall.
The sudden dry cough caused Xu Shun's voice to come to a screeching halt. He turned his head to look at the familiar figure slowly walking out from the ruins.
"Gu Yuan!"
Xu Shun's eyes were fixed on the martial artist in the ruins as he said in a low voice.
"Gu Yuan has been seriously injured!"
Beside Xu Shun, Hou Lei was stunned for a moment before saying, "If I'm not wrong, Gu Yuan's true combat strength should be less than 50%!"
"What do we do, should we …"
After Gu Yuan appeared, the originally noisy Xu Shun and Hou Lei instantly became good friends.
As Xu Shun spoke, his right hand gently slid across his neck. His meaning was self-evident.
"Wait a little longer." Hou Lei lowered his voice and said, "Although Gu Yuan's strength is less than 50%, we also only have 50% of our strength left. If we fight head-on like this, it will be very disadvantageous for us."
"You mean to say that we should not reveal our killing intent first?" Xu Shun asked doubtfully.
"That's right." Hou Lei said.
In the ruins, Gu Yuan looked at the people from the Nine Cauldrons Divine Pavilion in the distance and his face lit up with joy.
But very quickly, Gu Yuan's pupils shrank as he cursed inwardly.
In the Nine Cauldrons Divine Pavilion, he had always been at odds with Xu Shun and Hou Lei. Now that his strength was not at its peak, wouldn't it be very dangerous for him to encounter Xu Shun and Hou Lei?
"The might of the teleportation array's explosion is indeed not to be underestimated."
Just as Gu Yuan was secretly being cautious, a voice was transmitted to his ear.
Gu Yuan's expression changed greatly when he heard this familiar voice and he hurriedly turned his head.
This glance caused Gu Yuan to be dumbfounded as his pupils rapidly shrank.
"Y-y-y-you! How is this possible! "
Gu Yuan stretched out his hand and pointed at the familiar figure in front of him. He said incredulously, "You are only at the half-step Manifestation stage. How could you be unscathed from the teleportation array's explosion!?
"How could I be unscathed?"
Ning Yue pointed at his own nose and indifferently said, "This matter is something you will never know for the rest of your life."
"Xu Shun, Hou Lei!"
Gu Yuan knew that with his current battle strength, he was definitely not Ning Yue's match.
Therefore, Gu Yuan loudly shouted, "This is Ning Yue. I advise you to put away your thoughts and deal with him together with me. Otherwise, everyone will die!"
Xu Shun and Hou Lei's expressions turned ugly when Gu Yuan saw through their inner thoughts.
"Don't just stand there. Hurry up and come over." Seeing Xu Shun and Hou Lei standing there without moving, Gu Yuan was very angry. He said, "Don't think that Ning Yue is only at the half-step Manifestation stage. Let me tell you the truth. In the great hall, Ning Yue killed a half-step Supreme-Being corpse puppet with his bare hands!"
In order to attract Xu Shun and Hou Lei's attention, Gu Yuan even exaggerated.
"What!"
As expected, Gu Yuan's exaggeration had a very good effect.
Xu Shun and Hou Lei could not help but suck in a breath of cold air.
A half-step Manifestation stage martial artist killed a half-step Supreme-Being bare-handed?
If such a peerless genius was allowed to grow to the half-step Supreme-Being stage, just how terrifying would he be?
The Nine Cauldron Divine Pavilion's motto was that any peerless genius that did not join them deserved to die!
Therefore, Xu Shun and Hou Lei temporarily cast aside their previous enmity. Their figures flashed and they arrived beside Gu Yuan.
"Three half-step Supreme-Being martial artists with only about 50% of their strength left."
Looking at the three martial artists in front of him, Ning Yue's expression was neither happy nor sad. With a flick of his sleeve, he took out the Red Demon Sword.
"Next, let me see just how powerful the peerless geniuses of the Nine Cauldron Divine Pavilion are!"
