The entire Venomous Serpent Valley, right now seemed to be trembling. Looking at it, it was like the end of the world.
At the other end of Venomous Serpent Valley, Ghost King who was standing at a high place breathed deeply, even though he had already seen the power of the demon beasts but the scene before him still made his countenance change, he composed himself, pondered for a moment and looked towards the forest north of Venomous Serpent Valley, under the morning sun, that forest indistinctly reflected the light.
A trace of cold smile slowly surfaced on Ghost King's lips: One day, you will all know, who will be the final victor?
He roared in his heart, his face gradually hardened, BiYao was not here, then, he will use the world to make up for it!
He slowly turned around, behind him in the dense forest, were the Ghost King sect disciples, densely packed in the forest, their fighting spirit high. Ghost King looked at these people in front of him, innumerable gazes focused on his face.
At that moment, who knew what he was feeling?
The slowly raised arm, looked like it was becoming heavier, the distant roars and cries of terror, seemed to be transmitted here, Ghost King's countenance suddenly changed again, and then, he heavily swung down his raised arm.
His arm like a knife, like a sharp blade chopping towards the world, cutting off the last warmth, tearing apart the dreams that once existed, the sound of the arm in the wind, seemed like it was also pierced into the chest!
Countless people, behind him, made blood-boiling cries, raised the sharp blades in their hands and charged down the mountain, their clothes fluttering, the strong wind blowing, the trees in the forest swayed, seemed to be dancing wildly for this. Ghost King stood in the crowd, like a hard cold rock, motionless, he turned and looked towards the northern forest, there was also a commotion in the forest, gradually spreading out.
Ghost King laughed, he suddenly laughed wildly in this sea of dying people, that laughter was so piercing but no one dared to ask him a word or two, only the morning sun that had just risen, still carrying with it a faint warmth pounced towards this crazy mortal world!
Seven days later, entrusted by Reverend DaoXuan, PuHong Master and Yun YiLan and the other Good Faction leaders, a group of Good Faction disciples set off from Qing Yun Hill, arrived at the southwest area. Due to the importance of this matter, the three great sects had all sent out their most capable disciples. As if it was a coincidence, these people had already known each other for a long time.
Qing Yun sect Xiao YiCai, Lin JingYu and Lu XueQi, TianYin Temple FaXiang and FaShan, FenXiang Valley LiXun and YanHong, the seven of them, after departing from Qing Yun Hill, were cautious along the way, travelling during the day and at night, trying their best to avoid conflict with the demon beasts on the way, hurried at full speed to the southwest area, hoping to find out why a large number of demon beasts suddenly gathered at this place.
When these righteous disciples had just set out, although they knew that this journey was extremely dangerous, for the sake of the common people, not a single one of them had any thoughts of retreating. But on the seventh day after their journey, everyone had turned pale, kept silent all day and night, including Xiao YiCai who was the most eloquent, FaXiang behind him, and even Li Xun who had been wanting to talk to Anan, were all silent.
In a journey of a thousand miles, the further south one went, the more desperate the situation would be. Either the entire village or the entire city was littered with corpses, ghastly white bones, or one after another the villages and cities were deserted, the fertile lands turned into scorched earth. Nobody knew, why did these demon beasts still set fire, why were they so cruel and bloodthirsty, just like nobody knew, when would this catastrophe end?
The ghostly cries seemed to echo in the wilderness of the south forever, narrating the sad and miserable past.
After entering the southwest area, the group became even more cautious but right now they were facing a huge problem, firstly, they could not find the local residents, all of them had either fled to the north before the demon beasts came, or had already died tragically in this catastrophe, therefore, these Good Faction disciples had no way to ask the locals about the movements of these demon beasts. And on the other hand, most of the demon beasts could not communicate with humans, even if they took the risk to capture a few demon beasts but most of them were struggling and roaring, how would they be able to get any information?
Helplessly, after a discussion, they could only follow Xiao YiCai's suggestion, take the risk and secretly follow the demon beasts, wherever there were more demon beasts gathered, they would go there, to see what exactly these demon beasts were up to? As such, they followed in the southwest area for three days and three nights, in between they were almost discovered by some demon beasts with keen senses, smell and hearing, fortunately Xiao YiCai, FaXiang, Lin JingYu etc were extremely intelligent, every time at the critical moment of life and death, they managed to escape unscathed. But even so, they still did not find anything.
Just when they were starting to feel discouraged, by accident, they found an Evil Faction disciple who had already gone mad in a forest, under their careful questioning, or it could be said under patient coaxing, they gradually found out that the demon beasts' large scale invasion into the southwest this time, was actually for a great battle with the Evil Faction, and the result of the battle, was the demon beasts' overwhelming victory, the once arrogant and insufferably arrogant Evil Faction three great branches, were almost completely annihilated in this battle.
This news immediately made everyone dumbstruck, and among the crowd, Lu XueQi, who was standing furthest away, her face was especially pale!
Looking at this pitiful person who was curled up into a ball, incessantly muttering 'monster, monster', from time to time suddenly trembling, screaming in fright, the seven Good Faction people's hearts were shrouded in a heavy shadow.
Xiao YiCai coughed once, looked at FaXiang, said, "FaXiang senior brother, now we have a general understanding of the situation, what do you think we should do?"
FaXiang frowned tightly, glanced at that pitiful person curled up on the ground, sighed and said, "Amitabha, sin ah, sin." After a pause, FaXiang slowly said, "Everyone, actually the purpose of our trip, is now more or less known, little monk thinks, why don't we first return to the mountain, report to the few teachers about the current situation."
"No!"
Suddenly, a cold voice was heard from the side, everyone was stunned, the person who spoke was the most reticent Lu XueQi. FaXiang was somewhat surprised, said, "Lu junior sister, do you have any other opinion, please speak."
Lu XueQi's face was still very pale, but her voice was extremely calm, lightly said, "Everything that we know now, is from this Evil Sect disciple who has already gone mad from fright, and when he was speaking just now, he was incoherent, repeating over and over again, many of the places were our own guesses. If just because of this, we think that we have completed the task that the various teachers instructed, I think it is not appropriate. "
FaXiang was silent, everyone looked at each other, after a moment, FaXiang nodded and said, "That's right, Lu junior sister is right, little monk was too impatient just now."
Xiao YiCai pondered for a moment, said, "Lu junior sister is right, but these days we have been investigating in the southwest area day and night, there is not the slightest clue, don't tell me we still have to continue investigating like this?"
Lu XueQi's lips twitched, but did not speak, obviously facing the current dilemma, she also could not think of any good solution. But at this moment, Li Xun who had been looking at Lu XueQi from time to time, suddenly stepped forward, said, "I have an idea, maybe there is some hope."
Everyone was shocked, even Lu XueQi looked at Li Xun a few more times, FaXiang joyfully said, "Really, Li senior brother please speak."
Li Xun inhaled deeply, forced himself not to look at Lu XueQi, said, "I listened carefully to this madman's words just now, heard him mentioned a place several times, called 'Venomous Serpent Valley', not sure if everyone noticed it?"
Xiao YiCai nodded, said, "That's right, I also noticed it. I have heard of this Venomous Serpent Valley before, legend has it that it is a valley deep in the southwest here, countless venomous snakes gather in it, the forest also has highly toxic miasma, people will die immediately, no one has ever dared to enter this forest. After a long time, no one knew the exact location of this valley. "
Lin JingYu suddenly said, "Could it be that Li senior brother thinks that the great battle between the demon beasts and the Evil Faction, was carried out in this legendary Venomous Serpent Valley?"
Li Xun nodded, resolutely said, "That's right, based on my deduction, the battle was carried out in Venomous Serpent Valley, and even more, I think that this Venomous Serpent Valley may be one of the Evil Faction's three great branches' headquarters. As long as we can find that place, naturally we will be able to find out if what this madman said is true? "
YanHong who had been silent, at this moment suddenly said, "But senior brother, it has already been many days, let's not talk about whether we can find that Venomous Serpent Valley, even if we find it, the scenery there may not be the same..."
Li Xun coldly said, "Junior sister, don't tell me you have forgotten, those cruel demon beasts will indeed set fire to eat people but after setting fire, there will also be ruins, the demon beasts eat people but they do not eat bones!"
Everyone's countenance changed, YanHong's face turned even paler, suddenly made a nauseating motion, obviously the various tragedies that they had seen along the way, this girl had gradually reached her psychological limit.
Li Xun sighed, did not speak anymore, FaXiang and FaShan at the same time quietly chanted, Xiao YiCai shook his head, walked over to YanHong, quietly comforted her, until YanHong's expression gradually calmed down, he then turned and slowly walked to that Evil Faction disciple who was still trembling on the ground, squatted down.
"Do you know where is the Venomous Serpent Valley?" Xiao YiCai tried to make his voice gentler, sounded amiable but that Evil Faction disciple's body trembled, buried his head even lower, did not say a word. Xiao YiCai asked three times in succession but that Evil Faction disciple seemed to be deaf, did not have any reaction.
Xiao YiCai slowly stood up, looked at the crowd, no one spoke. Xiao YiCai sighed, said, "What to do?"
Li Xun who was standing beside frowned, suddenly strode over to that Evil Faction disciple, picked him up, loudly asked, "Where is the place where those monsters kill people?"
That Evil Faction disciple's body shook greatly, in that instant an expression of extreme fear surfaced on his face, opened his mouth wide and after a moment made an extremely sharp scream. But Li Xun's heart like stone, held on tightly and did not let go, loudly shouted, "The place where those monsters kill and eat people, where is it?"
"Ah! ... "
The Evil Faction disciple who was in deep fear was trembling, his teeth chattering, his eyes filled with fear but his head involuntarily looked towards the north. Li Xun's gaze froze, anxiously said, "In the north, isn't it?"
That Evil Faction disciple's head suddenly tilted, his entire body slumped down, everyone was shocked and quickly went up to check, the person's pupils were dilated, probing the tip of his nose, there was no breath, he was actually dead.
Li Xun slowly put down the body, stood up, facing the north, everyone followed his gaze, that stretch of forest in the distance, although it was a clear day but there seemed to be a blood coloured cloud, shrouding it.
