"Boom!"
The martial artist on guard only felt a purple light rapidly blasted into his face. The moment he felt his Divine Soul shake, a pitch-black space suddenly opened at his waist like the big mouth of an unknown giant beast and swallowed his body fiercely.
Before he could react, a cold flame that seemed both real and illusory wrapped around his body, causing his last cry of surprise to be distorted.
An unbearable pain spread through his body. Under this series of attacks, his body, which had been unable to resist, began to turn to ash. The martial artists who had just been eager to make contributions to the battle suddenly fell into despair.
Before his Divine Soul consciousness completely disappeared, the last thought flashed in the mind of the martial artist on guard – he was tricked! Furthermore, the territory he was in charge of had been infiltrated by someone …
"Hoo …" Ling Dong, whose Divine Soul sensed that the Divine Soul origin of the half-step Zhou Tian Righteous God had completely dissipated, finally breathed a sigh of relief, and his tight Divine Thoughts relaxed.
Ling Dong had planned so much and successfully carried it out. Furthermore, he had lured and killed this sentinel cultivator. While it looked easy, Ling Dong had used up all his abilities.
First, he confused the enemy, then the extreme Mysterious Light confused the enemy, the Two World Talisman severely injured the enemy, and finally the Inextinguishable Cold Flame killed the enemy. Each move condensed the painstaking efforts of Ling Dong in the past hundred years.
Of course, this was the half-step Zhou Tian Righteous God's first impression, thinking that he attacked Ling Dong first, and was counter-attacked by Ling Dong. If it was a half-step Zhou Tian Righteous God facing Ling Dong, Ling Dong would definitely not be able to kill him so easily, and it would cause a big commotion.
Although Ling Dong had killed off the half-step Domain God, who was on guard, in just a few breaths' worth of time, his figure shrank as he swiftly charged towards the ground. After that, he flew away at a low altitude. Flying in the sky, the target was too eye-catching, and he might be discovered by the martial artist on guard in the Wood Puppet Boundary.
Ling Dong had clearly seen the talisman released and received by the martial artist on guard just now. Although Ling Dong did not know what the content of the talisman was, Ling Dong was certain that his whereabouts had been reported by the martial artist on guard.
However, Ling Dong felt that this martial artist had taken the initiative to sneak an attack on him. Perhaps this martial artist had bought him some time, but it was hard to say exactly how much time had passed.
Or perhaps, this martial artist had acted on his own accord. If that was the case, there would be very little time left for Ling Dong. At the very least, before they reached the Residence of the Celestial Lord of Constellation or the True Dipper Sect, they could not be tracked by the enemy. Otherwise, they would sink deeper and deeper into a quagmire.
As he sped along, Ling Dong searched for the terrain talisman map of the Wood Sprite Realm. He carefully compared the terrain before him to determine his position.
Fortunately, Ling Dong was very sure of his position when he had sped along the ground for more than a hundred miles. Ling Dong was very sure of his position.
Ling Dong should currently be near the Jade River of the Wood Puppet Boundary. The terrain here was a little awkward for Ling Dong at present.
The Jade River was located in the north of the Wood Puppet Boundary. It was not too far from Qinggu City, one of the Four Great Martial Cities. It was about two thousand miles away. However, it was a little far from Ling Dong's target, the Residence of the Celestial Lord of Constellation and the True Dipper Sect.
Moreover, the Jade River was located in front of the Residence of the Celestial Lord of Constellation and the True Dipper Sect of the Wood Puppet Boundary. This made Ling Dong have to make a choice first.
After pondering for a while, Ling Dong instantly made a decision. His figure moved and once again skimmed at a low altitude towards the True Dipper Sect in the west of the Jade River.
In Ling Dong's opinion, the Residence of the Celestial Lord of Constellation in the Wood Puppet Boundary itself was a fortress. Looking at the situation in front of him, from time to time, teams of warriors flew across the sky in an orderly manner. They should be in a hurry. They should have yet to capture the Residence of the Celestial Lord of Constellation.
If the Residence of the Celestial Lord of Constellation was captured, then the situation in the Wood Puppet Boundary would be different.
Therefore, Ling Dong decided to go to the True Dipper Sect first. He wanted to see the situation in the True Dipper Sect, as well as the safety of Master Hei Tian, Tu Bai, Bu Yangming and the others.
Moreover, the excuse for the Earth Deer Boundary's rebellion was the death of the Earth Deer Boundary's successor, Mo Wudi. The Earth Deer Boundary had long known that Mo Wudi was killed by Ling Dong.
Ling Dong was worried that this time, when they attacked the Wood Puppet Boundary, they might vent their anger on Ling Dong's True Dipper Sect.
Once he made up his mind, Ling Dong immediately skimmed across the ground towards the True Dipper Sect at his fastest speed. Occasionally, when he encountered warriors in a hurry, Ling Dong would brush past them. Ling Dong was afraid that he would be late.
But no matter what, the speed of flying at low altitudes on the ground was slower than the speed of flying at high altitudes. This was something that could not be helped. If Ling Dong was flying at a high altitude and was discovered by the enemy, they might be able to trap Ling Dong to death with their talisman messages.
Especially when Ling Dong was not clear about the situation in the Wood Puppet Boundary, he could only do this. Originally, it would only take six hours to reach the Wood Puppet Boundary, but now, it would take Ling Dong nearly eight hours.
Time passed quickly, and a quarter of an hour passed in the blink of an eye.
What Ling Dong did not know was that, with the passage of this quarter of an hour, Ling Dong's appearance had caused a great uproar in the Wood Puppet Boundary.
In a forest located in the center of the Wood Puppet World, a young warrior, who was constantly receiving messages and giving orders, suddenly raised his slender eyebrows and shouted, "A quarter of an hour has passed. Has the fourth sentinel of the fourth sentinel in the north sent back a message about whether to kill the intruder or not?"
"Young Commander, the fourth sentinel has not sent back a message yet." Although the young martialist known as the Young Commander looked handsome, he had a shrewd and ruthless look on his face. His slender eyes, in particular, gave off a sense of wisdom.
"Immediately send a talisman message to interrogate!" The warrior called Young Commander ordered without hesitation.
After a breath of time, a talisman light immediately soared into the sky. After a dozen breaths, it arrived at the area where Ling Dong had killed the martial artist on guard. The talisman that no one had received rushed into the void. After a dozen breaths, it turned into a ray of brilliance and dispersed.
After a hundred breaths, the subordinate of the Young Commander suddenly showed a panicked expression. "Young Commander, the fourth sentinel in the north still has not responded to the talisman message!"
After a pause, the subordinate of the Young Commander speculated, "Maybe he is still in a fierce battle. Young Commander, wait a little longer?"
"There is no 'maybe'!" The Young Commander glared fiercely at the subordinate beside him. "Order the fourth patrol team and the fifth patrol team patrolling in the North No.4 area to immediately rush to the North No.4 area and report back as soon as there is any news!"
"Yes!"
After issuing a series of orders, the Young Commander, who still did not receive any response, had a fierce look in his eyes. "Military law is as strict as a mountain. The fourth sentinel in the north still has not responded to the talisman message. It seems that he has been killed! The fourth sentinel in the north has the cultivation of a half-step Zhou Tian Orthodox God.
But before he died, he did not even send out a distress talisman message. That is to say, the enemy has overwhelming strength. Or, the enemy has deceived the fourth sentinel before. There is more than one enemy? "
"Pass down the order. All the sentinels in the 36 directions of the Wooden Puppet Realm should be on high alert, especially the third, fifth, ninth, and eleventh areas near the North No.4 area. They should be on high alert. If they see any suspicious warriors, they should attack immediately!"
After issuing a series of orders, the Young Commander murmured softly, "In any case, this plan must succeed …"
However, half an hour later, Patrol Team No.4 and Patrol Team No.5 sent a message at the same time. They didn't find any enemies, nor did they find Sentinel No.4. However, when they found extremely fine ashes, the Young Marshal's face immediately darkened!
"Pass down the order. All the troops should speed up the action, especially the special action team. We must achieve the goal at all costs," the Young Commander ordered.
Different from the tense atmosphere in the military tent, Ling Dong was carefully moving through the forest on the ground at this time. He tried his best to hide his whereabouts, and his speed could not help but slow down again.
About two hours ago, the patrol teams in the sky suddenly became denser. Although each patrol team only had ten people and their cultivation was not high, they were all warriors in the early, middle, and late stage of the Star Lord Realm. Ling Dong could completely deal with them, but Ling Dong was worried that a slight move in one part would affect the whole situation.
There were so many patrol teams. How many enemies had attacked the Wooden Puppet Realm?
Ling Dong guessed that the enemy might have discovered that he had sneaked into the Wooden Puppet Realm and killed the sentinel. That was why they were so nervous.
However, Ling Dong saw that the enemy was so sensitive, and his anxiety was reduced slightly. If the enemy had already occupied the Wooden Puppet Realm, the situation would not be like this.
As Ling Dong carefully hid his tracks and moved quickly, he would occasionally look at the patrol teams in the sky, in case they suddenly lowered their altitude to check on him.
Just as he was looking, a green streak of light suddenly flashed in the distant sky. Ling Dong could tell with a single glance that it was the light of a Cloud Piercing Ship as it sped through the sky.
What made Ling Dong feel even stranger was that two streaks of green light were chasing after the Cloud-Piercing Ship in front. Originally, the two Cloud-Piercing Ships behind them would not be able to catch up for a while. However, a patrol team happened to pass by. Perhaps they had received orders, but there were actually bodies of flesh and blood that blocked the escaping Cloud-Piercing Ship.
After news spread that several people were heavily injured, the patrol team successfully slowed down the escaping Cloud-Piercing Ship. Almost at the same time, the two Cloud-Piercing Ships behind quickly closed in, charging straight at the slowed Cloud-Piercing Ship.
From the looks of it, they wanted to directly destroy the Cloud-Piercing Ship.
This situation caused the cultivators in the escaping Cloud-Piercing Ship to be greatly alarmed. They immediately abandoned the ship, and a large group of cultivators rushed out.
Seeing a few people in this group of cultivators, Ling Dong's expression immediately became excited. Almost at the same time, the two Cloud-Piercing Ships that were chasing after them suddenly stopped. Hundreds of cultivators immediately rushed out, surrounding the escaping cultivators in an instant.
"Kekekeke …" Amidst the complacent laughter, the figure of one of the cultivators lit up slightly, and he laughed loudly, "Run, run!"
The moment he heard this laughter, Ling Dong's expression suddenly turned cold. Hatred immediately filled his face, and his eyes narrowed, killing intent shooting out, "What a coincidence, to actually meet this bastard here!"
After saying this, Ling Dong's figure shot into the sky without any hesitation!
