Ye Ling, Meng Fanyan and the burly man were walking through the forest in Longze Mountain.
There were fifth-level eagles hovering over the forest sea, making it impossible for them to fly with swords and weapons, and they could only walk on foot.
Meng Fanyan tried to call the second senior sister Zhang Qiuyun again, but there was no reply, which made her slightly worried. She frowned slightly and said: "Could it be that the second senior sister and Mr. Guo also encountered the treasure-catching monk and encountered an accident? "
The burly man surnamed Huang also had some doubts in his heart. They had been on Longze Mountain for a long time, but they didn't see any transmission notes coming back. It was indeed strange!
The burly man also retreated and said in deep thought: "Why don't we retreat to the Pinggang area for the time being? At least there are many monks who have experience in hunting monsters and go up the mountain rashly. I always feel that something is wrong! Why don't we wait for them on the Pinggang? It will be safer for the team to gather in one place and hunt for treasures in Longze Mountain."
The more Meng Fanyan thought about it, the more worried she became, but she didn't have the courage to go back and see the snake herder again, so she looked at Ye Ling and the burly man and asked for their opinions: "It's been so long, and there's still nothing." After contacting Mr. Guo and Second Senior Sister, I'm afraid their luck is not as good as ours! Whether they are alive or dead, we can't say for sure. For the current plan, we can only take one step at a time. I saw a lot of corpses of monsters along the way. , all of them died not long ago, most likely the team of monks left traces in front of them, as long as we keep going up the mountain, we will surely find traces of the team of monks!"
Ye Ling nodded silently. His goal was the Dendrobium on the northern slope of Longze Mountain. Passing through the forest and over the mountains was the only way to go.
Seeing that the two of them had the same opinion, the burly man had no choice but to follow him with his head down and murmured: "That's it! If we meet another team of monks again, all three of us will apply to join the team. In short, one more teammate, one more teammate Share your strength!"
The three of them walked for nearly half an hour, and finally saw the shadows of the monks in front of them, a total of ten of them!
"Hey! Fellow Taoist in front, stay!" the burly man shouted at the top of his lungs.
These ten people hunted three fifth-level demon bears. When they looked back and saw Ye Ling and the others, they all had expressions of surprise on their faces!
"Aren't you three going with Guo Tuo'er?" The leading monk in blue recognized the burly man and Meng Fanyan at a glance, and was also slightly impressed by Ye Ling who was meditating under the ancient tree on the bank of Daze.
Meng Fanyan nodded repeatedly and asked expectantly: "Yes! Have you ever seen our captain? And my second senior sister?"
The burly man added: "In addition to the two of them, there is also a swordsman in a green shirt! That is also our teammate."
There was a strange look on the face of the monk in blue, and he sighed: "We did see them when we passed through the sky, and invited them to join us, but Guo Tuoer refused. Afterwards, we passed Pinggang, There is no trace of them. I advised the three of us to go with us. We have already lost six teammates along the way. They were either killed by the treasure-hunting monks who crossed the river together, or were killed by the vicious monks from Longze Mountain. Their losses were higher than before. Any one of them will be disastrous!"
"What?! Dao eliminated six monks!" The burly man's pupils shrank sharply. What surprised him most was that not one of them died under the claws of the monster. They were all killed by humans.
Ye Ling was also frightened and wondered: "The vicious monks of Longze Mountain? On the way into Linhai, we met a strange snake herder in black robes, but he did not have any murderous intentions towards us. He also went out of his way to give us directions.”
The faces of the leading captain in blue and the nine teammates all changed, and they exclaimed: "Black-robed monk? But a monk with a silver-threaded dragon pattern embroidered on the skirt of his black robe, and a black mark on his eyebrows? "
Ye Ling nodded seriously. He had been a little weird when he saw the snake shepherds before, especially the marks between their eyebrows, which impressed him deeply. Now that he saw them yelling, he was even more confused.
Meng Fanyan was also surprised and said: "In addition to raising a lot of demon snakes, the snake herder doesn't necessarily have anything surprising, let alone vicious. What? Is there something wrong?"
The captain in blue looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "We are seeing two young black-robed demon cultivators in the late stage of foundation building! They are both dressed like this, and they have the same mark between their eyebrows! These two people are ruthless, In just a few breaths, he killed three of our teammates and escaped unscathed. We thought they were from the same sect and were just brothers. But from what you said, the snake shepherd was an old man. It was obvious that they were They are a group of people with very strange origins!”
The monks were also talking a lot, guessing the identities of these black-robed monks.
Meng Fanyan's heart sank, thinking that her second senior sister Zhang Qiuyun had probably been poisoned by these black-robed demonic cultivators!
The burly man named Huang frowned and said, "I heard from the snake herder that he came to Longze Mountain half a year ago. Could it be that they built a sect in Longze Mountain to house extremely vicious evil cultivators and demonic cultivators? "
This kind of thing is also common in the world of immortality. Evil cultivators, ghost cultivators and demonic cultivators are often looked down upon by righteous cultivators. They either avoid enemies or covet evil things in one place, so they gather in groups and occupy the area. It is also common for sects to be founded in the mountains.
"Yes! Fellow Taoist and I have the same view." The captain in blue sighed, looked at the bright moon falling to the west, and said with a wry smile: "It seems that we have gone up to the Thief Mountain. The current Longze Mountain is much different from the past. No, our situation is not good! If we want to get out of Longze Mountain, we have to wait for the night of looking at the moon in a month. You three join our team, there is strength in numbers! We will encounter the black people in Longze Mountain again. The monk in robe is also capable of fighting, so he will not be assassinated."
Meng Fanyan and the burly man agreed in unison, and Ye Ling, who had been silent all this time, also responded casually.
Everyone was together, and although they were under the shadow of the black-robed monk, they were not necessarily pessimistic.
"Longze Mountain is so big, with mountains connected to mountains and ridges connected to ridges. Let's find a place to hide. I don't believe those black-robed monks can find it!"
"Yes! There are thirteen of us. What's scary about meeting ordinary Foundation-Building monks? As long as everyone doesn't spread out, I can guarantee your safety!"
Seeing the excitement they were talking about, Ye Ling said calmly: "We can't go to the top of the mountain. This is the road pointed by the black-robed snake shepherd. Maybe what's waiting for us on the mountain is a trap to catch everyone!"
Everyone's hearts trembled, and they said yes again and again! Even the captain in blue looked at Ye Ling, a minor cultivator on the first level of the foundation, with admiration: "Thanks to my little brother for reminding us, we can't get into the pockets that others have arranged and turn around immediately. It's best to join the monks on the hillock! "
The burly man had this intention, and they hit it off immediately. He was the first to carry the earth spirit stick and volunteered to lead the way.
Ye Ling sighed. When he said to retreat, these people ran faster than rabbits. His original intention was to let everyone climb the mountain path so that they could go around to the north slope to pick dendrobium.
But abandoning the team and walking alone is undoubtedly very dangerous. Even if Ye Ling has five fifth-level spirit beasts and a fourth-level spirit turtle, if he encounters a group of black-robed demon cultivators, he will die in vain.
Ye Ling had no choice but to go with them to Pinggang first and meet more monks. Since he would have to stay on Longze Mountain for a month and encourage people to go to the north slope, he had plenty of time!
Unexpectedly, before they had gone ten miles, a heavy fog arose in the forest, filling the air with a strong stench!
The burly man surnamed Huang no longer dared to pretend to be a hero, so he hurriedly stepped back and said in shock: "This fog is very strange! It was not there when we came here."
Meng Fanyan was the most sensitive to this fishy smell and said in a trembling voice: "The demon snakes are a large group of demon snakes! That snake herder must die a good death! He was definitely the one who released them."
"I'm afraid that may not be the case! There are more than just snake herders surrounding us!"
Ye Ling looked intently and saw three or four dark shadows in the heavy fog. There were demonic snakes everywhere, ranging from low-level to fifth-level ones. It was these demonic snakes that spit out snake letters and poisonous mist!
Meng Fanyan almost fainted, and the leading monk in blue was also shaken and made an immediate decision: "Retreat! Once surrounded by their snake formation, no matter how many people there are, it will be in vain."
Everyone ran up the mountain again. Ye Ling frowned secretly and shouted: "It's obvious that the black-robed monks want to trap us. There must be an ambush on the mountain. Hurry up and run away and rush out of the forest!"
Everyone suddenly understood and hurriedly took out the jade slips of the Longze Mountain map from their storage bags and looked for other mountain roads.
Ye Ling said coldly: "No need to read! As for the mountain roads written on the jade slips on the map, the black-robed monks here are more familiar with them than us. If you want to escape along the existing mountain roads, you will definitely reach the sky. We have to find another way. Just ride on the sword light, scatter the giant eagles in the sky, and go to the mountains at the eastern foot of Longze Mountain! There is an unknown area that has not been recorded on several maps and jade slips. Although it is dangerous, it is better than being targeted by these black-robed monks. .”
The captain in blue took a deep look at Ye Ling and nodded solemnly: "Okay! Just follow what my little brother said. Listen to my orders, and let's ride on the sword light and rush towards the mountains to the east!"
Ye Ling took out the cloud flying magic weapon and flew with everyone's sword light.
As soon as they arrived above the forest sea, the large fifth-order eagles that had been hovering for a long time pounced on them one after another.
Ye Ling's cloud magic weapon was mixed in with the sword light of everyone, flying slowly and slowly. He could neither fly too fast to the front, nor fall behind and be at the bottom. Only in the middle, this is the safest!
He held several fourth-level top-grade magic-breaking talismans in his hands. The power of this kind of talisman was not necessarily stronger than the Five Thunder Talisman, but the advantage was that the light of the talisman was bright. Once it was played, it could shine for several miles around, and it had a certain effect on birds and beasts. The intimidation effect is not to seriously injure the opponent, but to scare them away.
Following two shrill screams, two foundation-building monks fell and were bitten by several large eagles, and were immediately torn into pieces.
The monks were frightened when they saw it. They threw away magic talismans and bombarded them with magic weapons at all costs. They finally broke out a bloody path and left the large group of fifth-level eagles behind. Even if a few sporadic ones caught up, they were all beaten by Lan Yi. The stronger monks, such as the captain and the burly man, were smashed into meat pies.
