In the middle of the night, in the Eternal Earth Plains.
Under the moonlight, the ground was still pitch-black. No matter how bright the moonlight was, the light it emitted could not illuminate the dark night. When one looked up, they could see the bright ice wheel and the sky full of stars. However, when one looked down at the ground, they could only see pitch-black darkness. Even the pebbles under their feet were difficult to see clearly.
At this moment, in the middle of the Eternal Earth Plains, in an underground area slightly outside of the middle section.
Three thousand feet underground, in a vast space, there were four people drinking tea in a pavilion. Clouds curled around the teapot and a refreshing fragrance wafted through the air. The four of them sat on chairs with relaxed and calm expressions on their faces. They were not nervous at all.
That was right, this underground space was the Hidden Heaven Order's hiding place. These four people were Warsky and the three Assistant Sect Leaders.
However, at this moment, the large underground space was completely empty. Aside from Warsky and the other three who were drinking tea, there was no one else. All of the elders and disciples had disappeared. No one knew where they had gone.
Although Warsky and the other three have obtained the power of death, their minds were still very clear. Naturally, they would not lay a hand on their own sect's elders and disciples. To them, the sect's elders and disciples were the most important. They could have no morals but they had an unparalleled sense of responsibility for the sect.
The elders and disciples had been sent to another place. Only the four of them were left sitting here. The reason why they had not left and had stayed here was very simple. They knew that someone would come looking for them.
The various great sects would definitely investigate their internal members thoroughly. Although the Hidden Heaven Order's spies were well-trained, they could not be completely foolproof. Sooner or later, they would be found by the sect and interrogated. After the interrogation, they would receive information about the Eternal Earth Plains. Due to various worries, they would come to the Eternal Earth Plains to exterminate the Hidden Heaven Order.
After all, the Hidden Heaven Order was one of the four most powerful sects. Naturally, they knew very well how the sect's affairs operated and the sect alliance's decisions. Therefore, they had completely guessed the sect alliance's actions. At this moment, the reason why they were sitting here was very simple. It was … to wait for an opportunity.
Their target was Princess Yao. However, Princess Yao would definitely not appear. Lu An could possibly lead a team here so it would be best if they could capture Lu An. As long as Lu An was in his hands, Princess Yao would definitely obediently submit, and he would be able to report back to the one-armed man. However, there was also a possibility that Lu An would not come. Moreover, they were waiting in this place. Even if Lu An came, the possibility of meeting them was very low. It was impossible for them to wait until Lu An arrived, so their target was another group.
That was … a level nine Heavenly Master.
That's right, a Level Nine Heavenly Master was also the target of Warsky and the other three.
They understood the people of the Sect Alliance too well. This time, they would definitely send out a lot of Level Nine Heavenly Masters. According to their previous actions, it was very likely that each sect would send out two people. Once they found the Hidden Heaven Sect, they would have already exposed that they possessed the power of death. It was impossible for them to be defeated by the same number of Level Nine Heavenly Masters. Therefore, there would definitely be more than four people.
Warsky guessed that it was most likely that there were eight people, but there was also a possibility that there were more than ten people. After all, Zhu He's group of nine had barely managed to gain the upper hand against them last time. The sect alliance had always been cautious. But this time … even if the sect alliance really sent ten people, the four of them were confident that they could win!
Those who had not truly obtained the power of death would not understand how powerful it was.
It was also because of this that they were even more interested in Lu An. It was obvious that unlike them, Lu An did not need to consume pills to obtain this power. Instead, he possessed it himself. How did Lu An obtain this power? Could it be that it was also given to him by the one-armed man's force?
A few days ago, they had thought about this a lot, but later, they stopped thinking about it. As long as they caught Lu An, they would be able to get to the bottom of this. If they could catch Yao, Lu An would naturally give in and they would still be able to get to the bottom of this. They were not in a hurry. Therefore, after obtaining the power of death and gaining a lot of confidence, the four of them could leisurely sip tea and wait for their prey to come to them.
At this moment, above the plains, under the sky, eight figures were moving forward at full speed, looking for the hidden Hidden Heaven Sect.
Six Paths Sect's Sect Master, Zhou Baiqing, was among them. On his right was Six Paths Sect's Vice Sect Master, Gao Chen. Gao Chen was already on the rightmost side of the eight people, which meant that she was at the right edge.
The people on the left edge bordered the center, while the people on the right edge were the furthest away from the search area. Gao Chen spread out her perception and tried to expand the search area as much as possible because this matter concerned the safety of every sect. After all, there could be spies from the Hidden Heaven Sect in every sect. Therefore, every ninth level Heavenly Master searched very carefully and did not miss a single detail.
The distance between Zhou Baiqing and Gao Chen was more than three thousand feet, which was more than two hundred miles. The distance between them was very far. Moreover, in a situation where their perception had to penetrate the ground, the two of them could only ensure that the edges of their perception were very close, not to mention covering each other with their perception. In other words, if Gao Chen disappeared in an instant, Zhou Baiqing would not even be able to detect it. Of course, it was unrealistic to expect a ninth level Heavenly Master to disappear in an instant. As long as they made a move and produced energy waves, Zhou Baiqing would be able to detect it immediately. Zhou Baiqing would also release his energy and would be able to transmit information to the remaining six people.
Zhou Baiqing concentrated on his perception but would also look to his left and right from time to time. To be honest, everyone was very worried about the Hidden Heaven Sect's actions. This was not some mystical beast clan, but an enemy that understood the sect very well.
Please don't let anything happen …
Please don't let anything happen …
Zhou Baiqing kept muttering in his heart as if he was praying.
However …
Boom!!!
Suddenly, there was a loud noise on Zhou Baiqing's right. Zhou Baiqing was so frightened that his entire body trembled and all the hairs on his body stood on end!
Zhou Baiqing, whose scalp was numb, immediately stopped and turned to look to his right. He saw a red light that shot into the sky more than two hundred miles away from him. Even from afar, its power was extremely terrifying. Just the blood-red light alone was extremely horrifying!
Boom!!!
The impact of the explosion spread rapidly and swept towards him. Zhou Baiqing immediately mobilized all the energy in his body and released a defense to block it! After his power exploded, he was immediately discovered by the person closest to him on the left!
According to the rules, one by one, the other five people quickly realized that something had happened! Everyone immediately changed their direction and charged towards the right at full speed!
Rumble …
They charged forward at full speed and shattered the space as they flew towards the direction of the explosion! The furthest distance between the eight of them was only one thousand and five hundred miles. This was nothing to a level-nine Heavenly Master. They quickly arrived at the scene and met up with Zhou Baiqing!
However, when the others reached Zhou Baiqing's side, their expressions became extremely solemn. Just the blood-red light that filled the air caused them to feel an extremely obvious pressure. It affected their bodies and even their consciousness. The last time Zhu He had fought with Warsky, he had mentioned the power of this power. However, no matter what he had said, it was not as direct as experiencing it for themselves.
This feeling, once touched, would cause one to have a nauseating reaction. It brought with it strong negative emotions and loathed life, wanting to rush towards death.
However, although the blood-red light that filled the air was disgusting, what caused the seven people's expressions to become extremely solemn was … The four people who were ten thousand feet away.
No, to be precise, there were five people.
The four people from the Hidden Heaven Sect, Warsky, and the others were all standing high up in the sky. In one of their hands, there was a dying body.
It was Gao Chen.
He was an unlucky person. He was at the extreme right and the area he was searching overlapped with the Hidden Heaven Sect's hiding place. The Hidden Heaven Sect was to his right. When he sensed that there was a space three thousand feet underground, Warsky and the others also sensed his presence. Therefore, they attacked without saying a word.
Gao Chen's strength was considered average among the level-nine Heavenly Masters in the sect. His strength was even considered to be below average. After all, the Six Paths Sect focused on formations. Without the support of formations, Gao Chen would not be able to fully display his strength. The sudden attack did not give Gao Chen any time to use the formation. Moreover, these four people were the sect leaders of the Hidden Heaven Sect. Even without using the power of death, Warsky and the others could almost instantly injure Gao Chen. However, after using the power of death … this matter became very simple.
Seeing Gao Chen being choked by Liang Sui's hand and hanging in the air without any ability to resist, Zhou Baiqing's eyes were about to split open and bloodshot!
"Let him go!" Zhou Baiqing roared angrily.
However, Zhou Baiqing's anger did not make Liang Sui release him. Instead, it made Warsky and the others smile coldly.
