The night of the sixth day.
"West." Ge Huai 'en looked at the result of the divination with cold sweat.
Mengqi frowned and said, "Why is it west again?"
As long as one asked about good or bad luck, it would be bad everywhere. If one asked about the direction, it would be west every time. This made him a little suspicious that Ge Huai 'en's skill was not good enough. However, the result was the same every time, which also explained the problem. If it was not true, it could only be Ge Huai' en's own trick, but he would not joke around with his own safety.
"I don't know either." Ge Huai 'en shook his head blankly.
"Then shall we turn to the west?" Fu Zhenzhen asked weakly.
"Of course not." Zhang Yuanshan, Luo Shengyi, Qi Zhengyan, and Mengqi answered at the same time. As early as yesterday, they did not go to the west.
After defeating "King Biwa" Penbo Erba, the monsters were not dense in the first few days, and their targets were all the temples. Under careful concealment, they moved forward smoothly. However, on the fifth day, they found that the monsters in front of them began to carefully search every place, as if they were digging three feet into the ground to find something. In this situation, they could only take a detour. However, after a while and changing several routes, there were countless heavily guarded monsters in front of them. It was very difficult to sneak past them, so they had to ask Ge Huai 'en to do the divination again.
"Let's try that direction. If we meet a Little Goblin alone, we'll catch it and interrogate it," Mengqi said in a low voice.
As long as they persisted for two more days, they could pass the Death Task. No one wanted to waste all their previous efforts, so they all nodded.
Mengqi's heart was like a mirror. He projected his Will-projecting to reflect the surroundings, and then operated the Immortal Pressing Art, using his spirit and genuine Qi to perceive the subtle nearby.
There was a bird on the tree looking far away. In the somewhat withered body, there were insects crawling, a snake shuttling in the bushes, and insects and other things looming in the shallow layer of the soil. There was vitality everywhere.
He could only sense to this extent. If it was a little further, a little deeper, a little more subtle, there would be no way.
But he had to do it. If the opponent was a human, he would not have to be so meticulous. But the enemy was a monster. Birds, insects, and animals could all be their original forms, searching for them. Therefore, he had to be vigilant, to roughly sense it, or to kill or avoid it, lest their whereabouts be exposed, like the previous earthworm monster.
It was thanks to their cautiousness and Jiang Zhiwei's achievement and Meng Qi's Immortal Pressing Art that they managed to reach the "Imperceptible Realm", that they managed to survive until the sixth day.
Qi Zhengyan took a step forward. The surrounding sand, mud, rock dust, minerals, and refined iron all shot out, hitting some of the suspected targets and driving some away. Even the insects in the soil were affected by the "Kunlun Soil", and the surrounding area was cleared.
"Let's go," Luo Shengyi said. Everyone restrained their breath and moved forward cautiously.
After a while, the Monster Air blew in their faces, and the noisy sound drilled into their open Ear Apertures. There were also many monsters searching carefully here!
"Something is strange …" Mengqi, Jiang Zhiwei, and Qi Zhengyan looked at each other and decided to catch one alive. They could no longer hide in ignorance.
He called Qi Zhengyan, the only one who could attack from a distance without relying on external objects. He performed the Hallucination Body Movements and carefully approached the search area in front of them, hiding under the eyes of the Little Goblin.
After a while, a Little Goblin moved faster and separated from the main group.
Mengqi gave Qi Zhengyan a look and performed the Immortal Pressing Art. He rushed to the Little Goblin like a ghost, and the other Goblins around him turned a blind eye to it!
The two had been practicing for a year, and Qi Zhengyan cooperated well with each other. He slashed the Little Goblin with his Dragon Stripe Golden Sword, and the Firebird concentrated on the Little Goblin.
The Little Goblin was trembling, and its legs were weak. It was about to fall to the ground. Mengqi approached it and knocked it out easily. Then he carried it and went back to the secret place.
His movement was so fast that no one noticed it. The Immortal Pressing Art and the Hallucination Body Movements were indeed the foundation of an assassin!
After retreating far away, Mengqi woke the Little Goblin up. He released his Will-projecting Firebird and asked, "Why are you searching this place?"
The Little Goblin said in fear, "Grandpa Jiao Dragon, our kings ordered us to search this place."
"Why did they order us?" Mengqi asked. He was not clever at all, and answered every question!
"Grandpa Jiao Dragon, our kings only found a broken piece of wood in the temple, and there was no chance. King Biwa said that some living people came here first, and they must have taken it. So we searched everywhere." The Little Goblin also followed the king into the temple.
Mengqi frowned, "Where is King Biwa?"
"He went back to the mountain to heal his wounds, and will come again in two days." The Little Goblin answered honestly.
Mengqi asked about the search area of the monsters in the caves, and the more he listened, the more he frowned. They all relied on their kings to get ahead of the others? How could they stop them who had been walking out of the temple for several days? From the outside to the inside, they searched inch by inch, and the encirclement became smaller day by day.
"In other words, if we don't get out of the encirclement tomorrow, we will only have a small space to move. Tens of thousands of Little Goblin will come and trample us to death." Mengqi finished interrogating and told his judgment to Jiang Zhiwei and others.
Jiang Zhiwei had recovered from her injuries, and she nodded slightly, "We must find a weak point to break through. As long as we can get out of the monsters' search area, there is a high chance that we can survive the last day and a half."
As long as the sun rose on the eighth day, they could return.
"In the northeast, there is a Centipede Spirit, a Snake Spirit … In the southwest, there are three Yellow Bull Spirits … Except for a few, the rest are at the level of Half-step Exterior Scenery. It seems that with the Monster Saint's attack on the Holy Mountain, the Great Sage and the real Monster King have all disappeared." Mengqi told them the distribution of the encirclement from the Little Goblin.
Zhang Yuanshan thought for a while and said, "If we encounter the Exterior, even if we combine our strength, we won't be able to win. We must avoid them."
"It's best to choose a monster with ordinary Heavenly Knowing and can't attack from a distance." Luo Shengyi emphasized. If they encountered a Half-step Exterior Scenery monster that could attack from a distance and had the ability to get rid of the wind, they could only use the Demon-revealing Mirror to kill them.
Under normal circumstances, a Half-step Exterior Scenery monster could borrow some of the Force of Heaven and Earth, but it still had to fight in close combat, just like Duo Ercha.
They analyzed for a while. They could not choose those that might have special Heavenly Knowing or those on the Half-step Exterior Scenery. Finally, they decided on the direction of the three Yellow Bull Spirits. They were known for their brute force and liked to fight in close combat, so they were the team's favorite opponents. Moreover, there were only three Half-step Exterior Scenery monsters in the whole direction. Even if they made a mistake and were discovered by them, they could easily deal with them and break out of the encirclement as long as they did not encounter three of them at the same time.
After the discussion, Mengqi and the others changed their direction and went southwest under the cover of the night.
Although there were monsters that were good at lurking and hunting at night, it was better to use the cover of the night in the case of a large-scale search.
Jiang Zhiwei, Qi Zhengyan, and the others used the Transformation Strategy to take care of Fu Zhenzhen, Ge Huai 'en, and Luo Shengyi. Mengqi operated the Immortal Pressing Art and released his Will-projecting to cover Ruan Yushu.
Along the way, every step was dangerous. From time to time, they encountered a Little Goblin. If they were a little closer, even the Will-interference might not be able to hide from their senses.
In the dark night, there seemed to be monsters hiding everywhere. Everyone held their breath and tried not to let worry and fear disturb their state of mind.
"Moo! I know they look down on us and want to break out of the encirclement! " As the monsters became sparse and they were about to break out of the encirclement, a cow's cry suddenly sounded in the air. Three monsters with the head of a bull and the body of a human jumped down on them with the black wind.
Their eyes were wide open and bloodshot, and their faces were full of exhaustion. It seemed that they had been searching for Little Goblin in the area they were in charge of for the past few days. They were a model example of doing their best. They deserved to be called Yellow Bulls!
"Three at the same time …" Mengqi's scalp was numb. Even though he had the Zen Skill brought by the Golden Bell Shield and Ananda Oath-breaking Bladesmanship, and his state of mind had been tempered by many dangerous situations, he couldn't help but feel his heart beating faster. He really wanted to curse the Ether and the Dominator of Samsara in Six Realms. How could they encounter such a small chance? Was this the Death Task?
Although he cursed, he couldn't let it affect his judgment. He had to save himself!
"I'll stop one. You deal with the other two quickly. Don't be stingy!" Jiang Zhiwei said to Mengqi and the others through Secret Voice-sending. Then she jumped up like an eagle and caught the wrought copper stick of a Yellow Bull with her long sword.
The Yellow Bull had nothing but great strength. Accompanied by the black wind, it collapsed the airflow, as if the void was shaking. It was not something a mortal body could withstand.
However, Jiang Zhiwei's long sword was not affected by the force. She gently guided the wrought copper stick to one side, and the Yellow Bull Demon fell to the ground with her.
Jiang Zhiwei was just about to use "Hitting the Sea" when she suddenly felt that her legs were heavy, as if they were bound by something. Her movements became slow.
The little Power of Heaven and Earth it could borrow was the Power of Earth? The strange phenomenon it caused was the weight of the ground? Jiang Zhiwei suddenly understood why the Yellow Bull Demon liked to fight hand-to-hand. Because only when they stood on the ground could they exert their full strength!
This kind of special Half-step Exterior Scenery could be achieved by many Divine Kung Fu, so there were sufficient records in the Sword Washing Pavilion. Jiang Zhiwei guided the long sword and once again took away the heavy wrought copper stick. Taking advantage of the momentum, she chopped them down like a butcher dismembering an ox. She cut them apart according to the binding track.
Then, before the Yellow Bull Demon could borrow the Power of Heaven and Earth again, she rose into the air and chopped down with her long sword, "Hitting the Sea"!
The sword light was brilliant, like the arrival of the sun, evaporating the sea. With one stroke, the "sea" was divided to the left and right, and a deep sword mark appeared on the ground in front and behind the Yellow Bull Demon.
At this time, it was the time when the Yellow Bull Demon's moves were used up. Jiang Zhiwei seized the perfect time, as if she had been waiting for this opportunity, waiting for this flaw!
"Bang!" The Demon Odor around the Yellow Bull Demon was split open, and one of its horns fell to the ground. Its head was dripping with blood, and it flew into a rage.
Mengqi and others all knew that Jiang Zhiwei had the ability to kill a Half-step Exterior Scenery one-on-one, so they stopped worrying and divided into two teams. One team only had Fu Zhenzhen and Zhang Yuanshan, and the other team was led by Mengqi, which gathered Luo Shengyi, Qi Zhengyan, Ruan Yushu, and Ge Huai 'en.
The Yellow Bull Demon pounced on Fu Zhenzhen, but she took out an ancient bronze mirror and looked at its face.
In the bronze mirror, the Yellow Bull Demon's figure appeared and quickly changed into a giant ox.
In reality, the Yellow Bull Demon screamed and fell from the black wind to the ground. It rolled on the ground, but it was a monster three times the size of a normal ox.
Zhang Yuanshan caught up to it and took advantage of its weakness to cut off its head with his sword.
The Demon-revealing Mirror cracked and turned into pieces.
He had to finish it quickly!
Mengqi exerted all his strength, and the dark golden light flowed like a brass Buddha statue. He chopped forward nine times, each faster and fiercer than the last. The sound was like thunder, as if the Heavenly Thunder had fallen, fierce and domineering!
Luo Shengyi joined hands with him and played the famous Iron Fist, which was hard and powerful without any fancy moves.
With a loud bang, Mengqi took a few steps back, and the ground was full of deep footprints. If he didn't have the Immortal Pressing Art to turn the dead into life and reverse or transfer the power to his feet, he would have been seriously injured by this blow. Even so, his purlicue was slightly cracked and blood flowed out.
The Yellow Bull Demon was far stronger than the previous Wolf Demon!
Luo Shengyi flew backward, and his Protective Upstanding Qi was all broken. His fist was badly mutilated. If Mengqi hadn't helped him, he would have been seriously injured.
However, the two of them worked together and blocked the Yellow Bull Demon's blow. Ruan Yushu remained calm. She flicked her hand and broke the strings of the zither, and the sound of killing burst out.
The Yellow Bull Demon was shocked and slowed down a little. Ge Huai 'en crushed the God-Defeating Eye, and a dim light shot out and hit the bull's head.
"Ah!" The Yellow Bull Demon screamed, and the corners of its eyes and nostrils were bleeding. It opened its mouth and a yellow object flew out. It was as fast as lightning and indestructible. It hit Ge Huai 'en's head, and his head was smashed into pieces.
Bezoar? Mengqi was shocked and angry, but he had no time to think. While the Yellow Bull Demon's Primordial Spirit was injured and confused, he pulled out the Purple Death and waved it.
It was a matter of life and death!
