The two sides broke up unhappy, and King Zuo Xian left angrily with the four of them.
Cheng Ling asked: "Who is the monk named Yuan?"
King Youxian said: "His name is Yuanying. Back then, he was the one who came to contact the clan leader with the owner of Wuying Tower. Don't think there is nothing you can do about it now. As far as I know, the owner of Wuying Tower rarely shows up, and he usually comes forward. .”
"This man is ruthless, unyielding, and extremely powerful. There are very few people in the entire Sword Tiger tribe who are his opponents. Today you have lost his face, and you will definitely find a way to get back on your feet in the future."
Cheng Ling sneered and said, "Whether he can regain his position is another matter, but showing up today gives me a chance. King Youxian, I need to leave because of something urgent, so the few friends who came with me will Please take care of me."
"Don't worry, they each have their own strengths, and they will never eat for free. Brother Tuomu, you should pay close attention to your cultivation this year and strive to reach a higher level."
King Youxian glanced at Yin Luoyao who was standing aside, nodded silently, and agreed.
Tuomu said: "Brother Cheng, don't worry, I know my shortcomings, and I will strive to be promoted to the peak of the Six Marks Talisman Master in one year."
Cheng Ling nodded with satisfaction and left.
After leaving the tent, Yin Luoyao said: "Junior brother Cheng, are you planning to go to Wuying Tower alone?"
Cheng Ling smiled bitterly and said, "I knew I couldn't hide it from Senior Sister, but now is the best opportunity. Before King Zuo Xian leaves soon, as long as I follow that Yuanying closely, I will be 70% sure to find Wuyinglou's lair."
"But it's too dangerous for you to go alone. No, I'll go with you."
"Don't worry, Senior Sister, I will be careful, and it is easier to hide traces when traveling alone, and they will not be able to find them. Another point, after I leave, all the junior brothers and sisters in the tribe will rely on you, especially Zhang Hu and Song Yingjie , the two of them are of low level, please try your best to protect them."
Yin Luoyao hesitated for a moment. She knew that what Cheng Ling said was reasonable, and she was worried about leaving Ye Qiuhe and others in the Sword Tiger tribe. She had no choice but to agree.
Cheng Ling secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and after explaining a few more words, he chased in the direction where King Zuo Xian, Yuan Ying and others left.
They didn't leave for long. Cheng Ling checked for traces along the road and quickly confirmed the direction. After tracking for a while, to Cheng Ling's surprise, they did not return to Zuowang's camp together, but parted ways halfway.
King Zuo Xian and a group of guards returned to the camp. The other three people covered their heads with black robes and walked along the depths of the mountains.
Cheng Ling was hanging three people from a distance, completely hidden in the dense forest. He didn't dare to get too close. Based on his intuition, Yuan Ying's physical strength was stronger, one level higher than his own, and he should reach the level of Seven-Line Talisman Master. The other two monks were far behind, only the peak of Five-Line Talisman Master.
After following this for a day, as night fell, the three of them came to a cave and walked in.
Cheng Ling followed from a distance. With the faint light, he could vaguely see that the cave was not big and there were no other passages in it. It should be their daily resting place. Sure enough, not long after, a bonfire was lit in the cave, and the three of them took out the meat they had brought with them and roasted it.
Waves of strong fragrance drifted away in the wind, and Cheng Ling secretly cried out that he was unlucky. Fortunately, he also had a few pieces of dried demon meat on him, which could still ward off hunger.
The three of them ate and chatted in front of the campfire. Unfortunately, they were too far away and could only vaguely hear a few words like "master" and "life". In view of this, he didn't waste any effort, just leaned against a big tree as a cover, and just looked at it as if it were nothing, while recovering from physical exertion.
The three of them talked for a long time. After the night had completely fallen and they had had enough wine and food, they fell asleep leaning on the edge of the cave wall.
Cheng Ling secretly complained that the three of them could rest at ease, but he couldn't. If someone suddenly leaves you in the middle of the night while you are sleeping, you will not be able to find the grave even if you cry. When they came to the Demon Spirit Continent, both sides' spiritual consciousness was useless, and they couldn't predict what they were going to do.
In desperation, he could only cheer up and stay up all night to keep a close eye on the three of them. Unfortunately, this is easier said than done. Because he didn't know at all how much time the three of them would have to move forward. You may be able to hold on for one or two days, but if you don't sleep for several days, it will be too much.
In the end, he simply started to carry out the physical exercises, improving his physical strength while staying awake to monitor. Fortunately, what surprised him was that his physical training was very powerful. Not only did he not feel any fatigue after a night of moving, but he was also full of energy.
The sky gradually became brighter, and the first ray of sunlight in the early morning shone in front of the cave.
The three of them woke up leisurely. After tidying up for a while, they said a few more words and then left in two directions.
Cheng Ling pondered for a moment, and finally decided to stare at Yuanying and ignore the monk in black who left. He didn't dare to follow them too closely. He waited until they had walked for half an hour before he showed up and continued to follow them.
The mountain continued to climb upwards, and following the clues along the way, there was no demonic spirit blocking the way. This saved him a lot of energy. Gradually, another day passed, and he once again found that the remaining two people had found a cave to rest.
Cheng Ling cursed in his heart, these two boys were so happy, but they always made me suffer. However, it can be seen from this that the other party is familiar with this journey and must have been traveling for a long time.
He continued as he did on the first day, finding a place with thick trees far away to hide, and continued to carry the body-training techniques.
On the third day, the two parted ways again. Yuan Ying continued to walk up the mountain, while the other man in black chose another direction to leave.
Cheng Ling remained unmoved and kept a close eye on Yuanying.
After walking like this for another two days, Yuanying could find a cave to rest every night, while Cheng Ling could only suffer on the sidelines! As we continued deeper into the mountains, the terrain became steeper and steeper, until only a narrow mountain path with a width of one person remained.
In order to prevent Yuanying from being discovered, Cheng Ling tried to extend the tracking distance as much as possible. He only relied on the traces on the mountain road to track, but Yuanying could no longer be seen.
After walking on the mountain path for a long time, Cheng Ling's expression suddenly changed after turning around a vertical mountain wall. Ahead is a spacious platform halfway up the mountain, with a mountain road several feet wide on each of the left, right and upper sides of the platform winding forward.
But the platform was densely crowded with hundreds of demon spirits. Not only that, there were also demon spirits blocking the road on the three sides of the mountain road ahead. And looking at the auras of those demon spirits, they were more powerful than those seen before in the plains, reaching at least the seventh line.
Cheng Ling hid behind the mountain wall and did not dare to move.
There was absolutely no way Yuanying could leave easily with so many demon spirits, and there were no traces of battle at the scene. So how did he disappear? Perhaps like the man in black who took Liu Qingyan with him in the past, there should be a secret path on this mountain wall.
But there are so many densely packed demon spirits ahead, and you will be discovered accidentally. Once a battle breaks out, the threat of demon spirits is another matter, as they are afraid that the battle will cause fluctuations and be discovered by Yuanying.
Cheng Ling could only move forward cautiously, inch by inch, while searching the mountain wall to see if he could find any hidden mechanisms.
Huangtian paid off and searched for more than half an hour, and finally found a stone on the mountain wall that was very abrupt. The stone was round in shape, hidden in the mountain wall, like a groove, and could not be seen from a straight angle.
Cheng Ling slowly touched it, reached out and pressed hard on the round stone.
"Kaka~!"
There was a soft sound, and a movable stone door as tall as a person was revealed in front of the mountain wall. It's just that the stone gate is very close to the demon spirit and the cliff. If you walk in, you will be easily discovered by the other party. He held his temper and stayed at the edge of the stone door, daring not to move.
Unfortunately, after waiting for a long time, those demon spirits only moved through the left, right, and upper passages, and there were so many of them. The few demon spirits leaning on the edge of the mountain wall couldn't move around at all, and they couldn't distract their attention.
Cheng Ling was anxious. The longer he stayed outside, the easier it would be to lose sight of Yuanying. He gritted his teeth, picked up a stone the size of an egg from the ground, and threw it towards the left passage with a wave of his hand.
The stone hit the mountain wall hard and made a loud noise. The demon spirits on the platform became more vigilant and looked towards the source of the sound. Cheng Ling was overjoyed. The ghostly figure walked out silently and ducked into the stone door.
As soon as you enter, the stone door outside automatically closes. Looking up and looking ahead, there is a deep passage inside. It was about one foot long and wide, and the sound of the stone door closing sounded dull in the passage.
Cheng Ling increased his vigilance and hid in an inconspicuous corner, fearing that the dull sound would attract the enemy. After waiting for half an hour, there was still no movement, so he leaned out half of his body and looked into the passage.
There was nothing in front of him. There was a torch shining at a distance on both sides of the passage. The dim light swayed in the wind, flickering on and off. It can be seen that there must be an air outlet in the channel.
Cheng Ling bent down to pick up a small stone and threw it into the passage. Then he heard a crisp sound of falling to the ground, followed by a gust of wind on his head. He turned his head and saw several sharp arrowheads stuck into the rock wall a foot above his head above the passage.
A trace of cold sweat broke out on my back, but luckily I kept an eye on it, and luckily I was squatting down to pick up rocks just now. It is difficult to dodge such a fast arrowhead, and there is indeed a mechanism here.
After waiting for a moment and seeing no movement, Cheng Ling tiptoed toward the passage. At the back, the passage gradually began to become wider. It seemed that four or five people could walk in parallel, and it was probably also used for transporting supplies.
He moved inside step by step, throwing a small stone at intervals. After confirming that there was no danger, he continued moving forward, for fear of triggering some mechanism.
Moving at such a slow pace made him very dissatisfied. But there was nothing he could do. Life was the first priority. Although he was very unhappy, he still had to ensure his own life and Liu Qingyan's life! No one can guarantee whether there will be any agencies ahead, and the people in Wuying Tower are really screwed. A dignified immortal cultivator was reduced to using mortal organs to fight against the enemy. He really went back to life as he became more and more alive.
After walking like this for a long time, the light suddenly brightened in front of us, and we arrived at a spacious hall. The density of torches on the mountain walls around the hall increased greatly, lighting up like daylight. And looking around the hall, there is a wide passage extending in all directions.
Cheng Ling had to admit that by this time, he had completely lost track of Yuanying. There are so many side roads that no trace can be found at all. Just when he was holding his head and thinking hard, a sound of "rustling" footsteps came from far to near!
