A group of heavily armored soldiers escorted nine hunters through the Great Yan Mountain. As the group of people walked, the snow on the brambles and weeds trembled and fell from time to time.
"Roar ~ ~"
Occasionally, the howls of wild wolves could be heard from afar.
"Those bastards are in trouble," Teng Yongxiang said with a smile. Teng Yongfan held the iron spear in his hand and smiled in agreement. However, he was calculating in his heart, "Qing Hu Island captured a total of 180 hunters when the hunters gathered. They captured three hunters from each village, which means they captured almost sixty villages! Now, nine hunters and fifty Silver Dragon soldiers are in a team, which means there are 20 teams. "
At this moment, the 20 teams were scattered and searching in the Great Yan Mountain.
Not only them, but there were also thousands of Silver Dragon soldiers in teams of three to five, searching in the Great Yan Mountain. However, the Great Yan Mountain was much larger than the Blazing Mountain. If there were no locals to guide them, they would be searching like a blind man. No one knew how long it would take.
"Fifty heavily armored soldiers are escorting nine hunters. It will be very difficult to escape! "Teng Yongfan thought to himself.
"How far are the nine of you from the bottomless pit?" The leader of the fifty Silver Dragon soldiers, a strong man with a body like a black bear, shouted impatiently.
Of the nine hunters, the six hunters from the other villages naturally followed the lead of the hunters from Teng Jia Village.
"Lord." Teng Qinghao hastily said, "The bottomless pit is about twenty Li away from us along the mountain road. We will definitely reach it before evening. " In this great mountain, the distance between two points in a straight line might be very close, but the mountain road was rugged, and there would occasionally be valleys.
"You guys, hurry up. Don't delay."
The strong man with the black bear shouted and continued forward.
"Brother Qinghao, the men of Qing Hu Island won't kill us, right?" The hunters from the other villages approached Teng Qinghao and whispered.
"Let's take it one step at a time." Teng Qinghao also whispered.
Teng Yongfan recalled the scene when the 180 hunters gathered together and were questioned by Gu Yong, the Island Lord of Qing Hu Island, "That Island Lord of Qing Hu Island first asked if we saw the large ancient palace in the mountain. We all said we didn't see it. He then asked if you've found any caves or deep pools that lead to the underground … "
"Obviously, Qing Hu Island is looking for an ancient palace! This ancient palace should be at the bottom of the Great Yan Mountain! "
It was easy for Teng Yongfan to guess.
"There is an ancient palace at the bottom of the Great Yan Mountain?" Teng Yongfan thought about it and couldn't believe it.
…
In the depths of the Great Yan Mountain, there was a spacious area beside a small stream. A large number of military camps were stationed here.
In a certain large tent.
The thirteen Inborn Experts sat on the chairs.
"Twenty teams and nine thousand Silver Dragon Soldiers have been searching for four hours, but there's still no news?" The purple-robed lady frowned. This time, there were 20 squads, which meant one thousand Silver Dragon Soldiers. Adding the scattered nine thousand, there was a total of ten thousand Silver Dragon Soldiers searching.
"Don't worry. I believe there will be news before nightfall."
Most of the elders were leisurely drinking tea.
"Island Lord." Zhao Danchen looked at Gu Yong, who was resting with his eyes closed. Gu Yong opened his eyes and Zhao Danchen continued, "We stationed thirty thousand soldiers in the Great Yan Mountain … … If the news spread, would it attract the attention of others?"
The corners of Gu Yong's mouth curled up into a smile as he said, "Elder Zhao, so what if it attracts the attention of others? The army of Qing Hu Island will first destroy Tie Yi Hall, then prepare to attack Gui Yuan Sect … … .Now, we are stationed in the Great Yan Mountain. What's the big deal? Even if the other sects knew, they would at most wonder why we are stationed here. Could it be that they will think of Emperor Yu's Treasure? "
"If the elders saw that Xiao Yao Palace suddenly stationed their army on a mountain, what would you think of?" Gu Yong looked at the crowd.
"I'm afraid I would suspect that Xiao Yao Palace discovered some huge mineral deposits on the mountain." Zhao Danchen laughed.
When the elders heard this, they all laughed.
The thirteen of them knew that it was Emperor Yu's Treasure, so they were worried that it would arouse the suspicion of others. If they were really sneaky and were discovered by the other sects, then they would really be suspicious.
But now, he had openly stationed the army here.
Almost all the sects would think — —
Maybe they discovered a huge mineral deposit and wanted to occupy it!
"For thousands of years, no one has found Emperor Yu's Treasure. No one would have thought that we came here for Emperor Yu's Treasure. So, don't worry and be bold. " Gu Yong said with a smile. Although he was smiling, Gu Yong was still slightly worried. "Will the remaining members of Tie Yi Hall know this secret?"
Although Gu Yong was worried, he had no other choice.
It was impossible to eliminate the roots of a sect that had existed for over a thousand years and kill everyone.
Just like Tie Yi Hall, there were over a hundred thousand disciples and soldiers in Chu County alone. There were also people stationed in other places. No matter how powerful a sect was, it was impossible to kill every disciple of Tie Yi Hall, which was so deeply rooted! Therefore, it was enough to eliminate this kind of sect by killing all the core members and innate experts.
After all … …
There were only a few postliminary experts left. Could it be that they could destroy Qing Hu Island with just a few dozen postliminary experts?
If Qing Hu Island was so easy to destroy, it wouldn't have existed for so many years.
"Find Emperor Yu's Treasure as soon as possible and take it away!" Gu Yong thought to himself.
"Island Lord, Island Lord!"
Suddenly, an excited shout came from outside. A figure barged in without any prior notice.
"Island Lord, we found an underground lake!" The middle-aged man's eyes lit up as he said excitedly.
"Whew!"
The thirteen innate experts stood up at almost the same time. Gu Yong stared at him and said hastily, "Quick, tell me the details."
"Yes, Island Lord." The middle-aged man took a deep breath and said, "This is what happened. This time, one of the twenty teams found a bottomless hole in the weeds. Those hunters said that the hole was unfathomably deep and they didn't dare to enter. At that time, twenty Silver Dragon soldiers went down slowly by relying on ropes and vines. About an hour later, a few Silver Dragon Soldiers escaped from the deep hole in fright. At the same time, a demonic beast also came out of the hole! "
"A demonic beast?"
The eyes of Gu Yong and the others brightened.
Actually, they already knew that the Spiritual Qi of the Heavens and Earth was abundant in the place where Emperor Yu's Treasure was kept. It wasn't strange for a demonic beast to appear. Since a demonic beast appeared there, it meant that … … they might have found the right place.
"That was a Stone Piercing Beast that was nearly one Zhang long. When the demonic beast and the soldiers fought, it attracted the attention of the other Silver Dragon soldiers. A large number of Silver Dragon soldiers surrounded and killed the Stone Piercing Beast. In the end, the Stone Piercing Beast escaped into the deep hole. In this battle, four hunters were killed by the Stone Piercing Beast, sixty-eight Silver Dragon soldiers died, and over twenty people were injured. "
"It seems that this Stone Piercing Beast hasn't transformed yet." Gu Yong said.
The Stone Piercing Beast was covered in scales. Its claws and teeth could easily penetrate rocks. It was a demonic beast that lived underground. When encountering this kind of creature, the heavily armored Silver Dragon soldiers met their nemesis. The Stone Piercing Beast could easily tear through heavy armor.
"The two surviving Silver Dragon soldiers who escaped from the underground said," That's right. About eight hundred feet underground, they found an underground lake. It was a very large lake! It was water for at least ten Zhang! Because there was no light underground, they didn't dare to swim too far and immediately came up. But on the way up, they were attacked by the Stone Piercing Beast. "
As soon as he said this.
Gu Yong and the others were delighted.
"The original lake was a lake with a circumference of ten Li." Gu Yong still remembered the records in the books. "A lake of that size sunk into the ground and was covered by rocks. I didn't expect that there would be so much lake water. "
"Lead the way." Gu Yong ordered.
Immediately, the thirteen innate experts rushed to the deep hole.
… …
Hundreds of Silver Dragon soldiers had gathered here. As Gu Yong and the other innate experts arrived, everyone made way for them.
"Island Lord, this is the deep hole that leads to the underground." Following the directions, Gu Yong walked to the side of the deep hole.
The weeds around the deep hole had been cleared, revealing the dark hole that was thirty to forty Zhang wide. One couldn't see the bottom with a glance. On the soil beside the deep hole, there were dark bloodstains and even pieces of flesh. There were many deep ravines on the ground. It was obvious that a great battle had occurred.
"Very good."
Gu Yong nodded.
"Sovereign, what should we do with the hunters?" General Lan asked in a low voice.
Gu Yong turned and glanced at him, saying indifferently, "Kill them all!"
The hunters knew that Qing Hu Island was looking for the mysterious palace, and they also knew that Qing Hu Island was looking for the deep hole or pool that led to the underground … … Therefore, they couldn't be left alive! Although the other great sects didn't know that Qing Hu Island was looking for Emperor Yu's Treasure … … But with Gu Yong's personality … … it was best to be cautious.
"Yes." General Lan responded.
"Also, pass down the order. Order the Silver Dragon soldiers to set up camp in a radius of five to six Li around this deep hole." Gu Yong knew clearly that thirty thousand people couldn't seal off the entire Great Yan Mountain. Therefore, he could only narrow the perimeter.
"Send out the order to assemble and execute."
Gu Yong gave a few orders in a row.
… …
"This deep pool is really cold. It's cold in the winter, but this deep pool is even colder. " A few Silver Dragon soldiers who were searching for the deep hole and pool were looking at the Frost Jade Pool halfway up the mountain. They used their hands to feel the low temperature, but none of them dared to enter the deep pool.
"Xiu!"
A sharp sound resounded through the sky.
The few soldiers raised their heads and looked.
"Order to assemble. Let's go. Stop searching and go quickly." The few Silver Dragon soldiers immediately rushed over.
… …
According to the previous rules, once the signal to assemble was sent out, all the teams would stop searching and gather towards the place where the signal was sent out. Moments after the signal to assemble was sent out — —
"Xiu!" "Xiu!" "Xiu!"
Soon after, three sharp sounds resounded through the sky.
This was the signal to kill all the hunters!
