1582 Chapter 1582: Mutual Destruction?
"Whoosh!" "Whiz …"
Soft sounds of something tearing through the air rose and fell one after another.
At the side of a huge pit, several figures suddenly appeared. With just a quick glance, those people stopped in their tracks. As time passed, more and more figures appeared. In just a short span of ten breaths, nearly a thousand people had gathered here.
"Everyone, quickly look at the traces here. Commander Qiu Jian must have been caught up by that Fourteenth Stage Death Spirit here, and then had a huge battle with him."
A deep voice suddenly rang out.
The man who spoke was Xiong Zhuang, who had been severely injured at the Martial Arts Competition.
The surrounding people were all cultivators under Tang Huan's command. After the nine squads gathered, they bumped into a few people who had escaped, and then used their fastest speed to kill their way back. After exterminating the hundreds of dead spirits at the foot of the mountain, they followed the traces and tracked them all the way to this place.
"With Commander Qiu's strength, defeating a thirteenth step Death Spirit shouldn't be a problem, but a fourteenth step Death Spirit …" A skinny man couldn't help but sigh.
"..."
Everyone was speechless.
A Level 14 Death Spirit was comparable to a Level 3 Heaven Realm human cultivator. A few days ago, during the Martial Arts Competition, Tang Huan had defeated a peak of the second level, but if he were to fight with a Level 3 Heaven Realm cultivator, his chances of winning would be minuscule. After all, he had only just broken through to the first level.
Tang Huan had been caught up to by the Fourteenth Stage Death Spirit, and the chances of him surviving the battle were extremely slim. At this time, he had probably already died in the hands of the Death Spirit.
"Everyone, no matter what our previous impression of Qiu Jian was, he is still the commander of our Heavenly River City. Now that he is in danger to save someone, we cannot just sit back and do nothing."
The skinny man suddenly said in a deep voice, "So, I suggest that everyone split into nine teams and search the surroundings. Then, inform the other teams of the news. If he's alive, I want to see him. If he's dead, I want to see his corpse."
"I agree."
"That's what I think too."
"That's how it should be."
"..."
Xiong Zhuang and the others immediately moved, and the nine teams split up and flew in different directions …
… ….
Heavenly River City
"What?" Gu … Qiu Jian's life or death is unknown?
"Inside a stone house, Du Yue, who was sitting cross-legged, jumped up in shock, and almost called out the two words" Gu Ying "," What exactly is going on? "
"City Lord!"
Li Xinghan's face was also somewhat gloomy, "The news from Yue Ling City is wrong, the ones who escaped here are not all undead spirits below the twelfth step, but there is also an expert of the fourteenth step. The team under Qiu Jian's command that first discovered the whereabouts of the undead spirit suffered heavy losses, and when Qiu Jian went to find them, only a few people survived. In order to save them, Qiu Jian stayed behind to block the enemy, and after the great battle with the fourteenth step undead spirit, there was no trace of him!"
"In that case, we still can't be sure if that little fellow Qiu Jian is dead or not?" Du Yue squinted his eyes and said in a deep voice.
"Not bad."
Li Xinghan nodded subconsciously.
"That's good, that's good!"
Hearing that, Du Yue heaved a sigh of relief. If that little fellow had really died at the hands of the Death Spirit, he would not be able to explain it to his master. Fortunately, he was not sure if he had really been killed by the Fourteenth Stage Death Spirit. As long as he was not sure if he had died, there was still a glimmer of hope.
"Where's that fourteenth step undead?" Suddenly, Du Yue shouted in a low voice.
"There's no trace of him either!"
Li Xinghan frowned and shook his head. Then, he said in a deep voice, "According to the cultivators who were searching at that time, it's very likely that Qiu Jian and the Fourteenth Stage Death Spirit have already … Perished together!"
"Perish together?"
Du Yue was startled, and his expression turned ugly.
After a long while, he finally took a deep breath and said with a bitter smile, "Maybe he escaped with heavy injuries. The Domain is so big, it's normal for us to not be able to find him in a short period of time. There's no need to rush to a conclusion. If you and I send more people and expand the search area, we might be able to find his whereabouts."
He had originally thought that there wouldn't be any danger in this operation, so he sent Tang Huan out with ease.
However, who would have thought that the news from Yue Ling City would have such a huge mistake? Unfortunately, it was already too late to regret it now.
With a sigh, Du Yue's figure moved slightly, and he had already left the stone house. Li Xinghan also let out an inaudible sigh, and followed him out in a flash.
With Du Yue's order, all the cultivators in Heavenly River City began to move.
Out of the ten teams stationed in the city, another eight teams were sent out, and together with the twenty teams outside the city, they began to search for Tang Huan's whereabouts.
This search lasted for a full five days before it came to an end.
Tang Huan was still nowhere to be seen, and the Fourteenth Stage Death Spirit did not reveal any trace of it either. On the other hand, the other portion of the dead spirits that had escaped from Yue Ling City were found, and then completely annihilated … Among those undead spirits, there was also an expert of the thirteenth step. However, after learning from the mistakes of a few days ago, the searching team was extremely vigilant, and they had long since made complete preparations.
As for Tang Huan and the Fourteenth Stage Death Spirit, almost everyone in Heavenly River City felt that they had perished together.
However, even more cultivators, especially Dou Bin, Cao Yu, and Wei Anlan, who had been severely injured by Tang Huan during the "Martial Arts Competition" in Heavenly River City, as well as the people who were on good terms with them, were secretly overjoyed and excited.
"Gu Ying... Dead?
"Innate City, Lei Dao was slightly startled, and instantly cried out in alarm.
After not being able to find Tang Huan's whereabouts for such a long time, Du Yue did not dare to hide it any longer, and sent the relevant news to Innate City.
"What a good Du Yue, what is he doing? He can't even handle such a small matter?"
After a split-second, Lei Dao let out a low roar, his brows brimming with anger.
Although Gu Ying's current cultivation was rather weak, his potential was unbelievably strong, especially his attainments and potential in Tools Method. An outstanding disciple who had the potential to become a saint rank heaven's work had actually died in Heavenly River City. How could he endure this?
"Elder Lei, don't be angry. He might not necessarily be dead. Du Yue said …" His whereabouts are unknown? "A thin old man in a white robe at the side.
"Missing?" "Hehe!"
Lei Dao sneered, "I still don't know what kind of trick Du Yue is playing? If Gu Ying's whereabouts were truly unknown, then the news he sent over would be a different story, and not that his whereabouts were unknown. That little fellow seems to be in danger, what a pity, what a pity! "
"Elder Lei, don't be in such a hurry to come to a conclusion. Did Gu Ying leave a Mind Stigma in the sect?" The white robed old man stroked his long beard and said slowly.
"If you didn't say it, I would have almost forgotten."
Lei Dao was slightly stunned, but soon after, he fiercely slapped the back of his head, "Before I left the sect, I specifically asked that little fellow for something that had fused with his Mind Stigma." As he spoke, a small white jade pendant appeared in Lei Dao's palm. After sensing it for a moment, the two of them were stunned.
"He's not dead?"
"He's still alive!"
