By the time the monks at the scene woke up, Cheng Ling and the other three had long since disappeared.
"What a terrifying technique. There is still a layer of cold air lingering around. Not only that, they also killed Xiang Mingsheng, who was an Immortal Emperor-level monk. Once such a person is offended, I am afraid they will kill him. It will bring endless troubles to the sect." Sima Tan's scalp went numb and he regretted participating in the interception.
But soon, a trace of determination appeared in his eyes: "These three people are indeed amazing and talented, but they killed many monks along the way, and the forces they offended have spread to the sea, and they have become the target of public criticism. I am afraid that there will no longer be a place for them in the Zhongyuan Continent." So! Let’s see who can have the last laugh..."
Thousands of miles away from the battlefield, in a mountain col, Cheng Ling, Qin Zijin, and Su Nianli sat cross-legged, trying desperately to recover from their injuries and immortality.
Although this battle did not take much time, it was more dangerous than before. Especially with the participation of the Tianxin Pavilion monks, their plan is very good, integrating the combat power of all major forces to the maximum extent, and it can be said that they have laid a dragnet.
It was because of Cheng Ling's use of various means and the display of the Taoist will of the other side that he managed to gain a small opening and break out of the tight siege.
But he knew that the influence of the Taoism on the other side was not great on these monks. First, they were in different places. The power of the netherworld in the Zhongyuan Continent was too thin, and the Taoism and artistic conception that could be exerted was limited. In addition, they were surrounded and killed. The monks are basically above the Immortal Emperor stage, and at best it can only make their souls temporarily confused.
If it were in the Netherworld, with Cheng Ling grasping 10% of the Taoist intention of the other side, the soul would be pulled by the powerful artistic conception and fall into reincarnation unconsciously below the Immortal Master stage.
After repairing for five consecutive days, Cheng Ling was the first to recover. Seeing the two women still practicing there, he did not wake them up, but fell into deep thought.
After this battle, he once again felt that his strength was insufficient. Originally, after advancing to the Immortal Master stage, with the combined efforts of the three of them and the help of the sword array, ordinary encirclement and suppression were ignored. However, in the previous battle, he almost used all his means and was able to escape temporarily.
However, the other party did not send many strong men. There were only eight above the Immortal Emperor, and they were all in the early stage of the Immortal Emperor. It is conceivable that if these sects send out a few more Immortal Emperor-level monks, it will be more difficult for the three of them to escape, let alone the super power Songfengguan who has not yet taken action.
strength! You must find a way to improve your strength again!
The essence of fighting to support war is to constantly hone and improve yourself in battle, rather than blindly being ambushed and running around like a lost dog.
Three more days passed like this, and Qin Zijin and Su Nianli finally recovered completely. The two women exhaled a long breath, looked at Cheng Ling and asked doubtfully: "Cheng Ling, what kind of spell did you use before? It has such a weird cold aura."
Cheng Ling waved his hand and did not explain. Instead, he looked at them and said, "After this battle, do you still want to go north with me?"
"Why not? Although it is very dangerous, but as you said, after this period of fighting, I feel that my swordsmanship and cultivation have been accumulated. As long as I stay in seclusion for a period of time, I might be able to open the second acupoint. , promoted to Earth Lord." Qin Zijing said immediately.
Su Nianli agreed and said: "Yes, I also feel that I have made great progress. Cheng Ling, you can't get rid of us. This kind of training that relies on fighting to support fighting is much more interesting than immersing yourself in seclusion."
Cheng Ling smiled happily. As expected, both women had a temperament that refused to admit defeat. He was silent for a while and then said: "Well, it seems that you both agree with the fighting style of fighting, but when we welcome
The encirclement and suppression of those monks is only one aspect of this style of play. The other aspect is to quickly increase our combat power at all costs. "
"Then how should we improve? We have just advanced to the Immortal Stage not long ago, and we haven't had a period of time to settle down. I'm afraid it will be difficult to make any big breakthroughs." Qin Zijin asked doubtfully.
"Resources! We need more heaven-defying resources!" Cheng Ling said, "General cultivation can no longer satisfy rapid improvement. Only some heavenly materials and earthly treasures or secret cultivation realms like the Celestial God Clan and the Earth God Clan are possible. "
"But now that we are being hunted everywhere, where can we find the opportunity to find those resources?" Su Nianli said helplessly.
Cheng Ling snorted coldly and said, "Yes, we are indeed being hunted everywhere, but that doesn't mean we have to be passively beaten. We should take the initiative!"
"Take the initiative? What do you want to do?"
"Tianxin Pavilion, Tiandao Sect, Ruixia Immortal Sect, Yunyan Sect, Lingyun Sect, Scarlet Blood Sect, since these sects have taken action against us, they have to pay the price."
"As the first- and second-rate forces on the Zhongyuan Continent, their sects must have corresponding secret realms for cultivation. Even if they can't find a place to quickly improve their cultivation, the resources within the sect must be extraordinary. Those resources should be used to encircle and suppress us. Pay the price!"
The two women were startled and asked at the same time: "You want to kill them directly in their lair?"
"That's right. Now that we have taken action, there is nothing to show mercy to. I will make them pay a heavy price!" Cheng Lingsenhan said.
"Are you crazy! The mountain gate must be where a sect's strongest defense is located. Besides, almost every sect will set up a defensive formation. How do you enter?"
"Formation?" Cheng Ling sneered and said: "In this life, Cheng is not afraid of formations the most! You two, you are more familiar with Zhongyuan Continent than me. Tell me, which sect is closest to this place? "
The two women looked at each other, and Su Nianli asked, "Are you really sure of breaking through their mountain-protecting formation?"
Cheng Ling nodded.
Su Nianli finally said: "If my memory is correct, the closest one to this place should be the Scarlet Blood Sect, which is thousands of miles away in the northwest."
Cheng Ling's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and he murmured: "Red Blood Sect, let's start with you first!"
After saying that, he flew straight to the northwest.
The two women hesitated for a moment and then followed.
...
Scarlet Blood Sect!
Deep in the lofty mountains, Cheng Ling and three others quietly hid outside the gate of the Scarlet Blood Sect.
"The Scarlet Blood Sect has been a third-rate force for tens of thousands of years since it was founded. It was not until the Scarlet Blood Patriarch created his own heaven-level technique Blood Lotus Transformation thousands of years ago that he suddenly emerged and became a second-rate force in the Central Plains. I once heard from Master I have said that the Blood Lotus Transformation technique is very evil, as long as the Yuan Yin of a pure Yin female cultivator is sacrificed, it can be quickly improved. Therefore, the Scarlet Blood Sect can be regarded as an evil sect in the Zhongyuan Continent!"
Su Nianli looked at the mountain gate under the night light and introduced softly.
Cheng Ling asked: "How strong is the Scarlet Blood Ancestor?"
Su Nianli sighed and said: "The Scarlet Blood Ancestor's cultivation level is the Five-Star Immortal Emperor, but he has a rare treasure called the Gilded Lotus Lamp. This lamp is extremely powerful and has its own space. It can especially accommodate living people." of creatures.”
"Therefore, when fighting enemies, some female cultivators are often stored in it. Coupled with the special skills of the Blood Lotus Transformation, the immortal energy is almost infinite. Unless the realm exceeds too much, it will not be his opponent at all.
Even if my master takes action himself, he is not completely sure. Cheng Ling, do you really want to try it? "
Cheng Ling blinked and said: "Now that we are here, there is no reason to give up halfway. Besides, who knows if the Scarlet Blood Ancestor is still in the sect. If we really encounter him, we can only blame us for being unlucky."
The two women were helpless. Qin Zijin glanced at the sky and asked, "When are you going to take action?"
Cheng Ling chuckled and said, "The midnight is coming, it's time to take action!"
After saying that, he flashed, penetrated the layers of black fog, and came to the edge of the mountain-protecting formation. Immediately afterwards, he took out a few formation flags from the storage ring, gestured in the air, and threw them out.
Swish, swish, swish, several formation flags floated in the air above the formation according to their respective directions. In an instant, the mountain-protecting formation made ripples like water waves. The next moment, a black space half a foot in size appeared. come out.
Cheng Ling waved his hand behind him and dived into the black hole, followed closely by the two women. After the three people entered, the black hole slowly closed and finally disappeared.
As soon as they entered the formation, the three of them used the breathing technique, and the aura on their bodies was vague, like an ordinary small animal.
"Such rich immortal essence, but it's so big here, how do we know where the secret realm of the Scarlet Blood Sect is?" Qin Zijin asked softly.
Cheng Ling smiled calmly and said, "It doesn't matter, everyone hide their presence and move quickly. As long as we find a place with many guarding disciples, it must be an important place in the sect."
As soon as the two women heard this, they followed him closely and pushed all the way deeper.
Perhaps because of the protection of the mountain guard formation, the defense within the Scarlet Blood Sect is not tight, and patrolling disciples are rarely seen. The three of them were so happy that they advanced very fast. In addition, Cheng Ling's consciousness was much stronger than those of the disciples, so they had already avoided it before they noticed it.
After sneaking for about half an hour, he had almost arrived at the core area. Cheng Ling glanced around and found that there were vaguely three halls ahead, corresponding to the left, front, and right directions.
After pondering for a while, he said softly: "You should be able to gain something from the three halls ahead. Now you have to make a choice. Which one do you want to go to first?"
Qin Zijin took a look and said proudly: "The three of us happen to be one each, what else should we choose?"
Cheng Ling said: "It's not appropriate. If you separate, you will be weak. As long as one area is disturbed, the disciples in the Scarlet Blood Sect will find out and it will be difficult to escape."
"But if we only choose one place, we might alert the disciples in the Scarlet Blood Sect. Instead of doing this, we might as well attack separately to see who has better luck. Maybe we can also grab the Scarlet Blood Sect's treasury. Besides, they are scattered. If you open it, you will have a greater chance of obtaining treasures.”
Cheng Ling was silent, Qin Zijin's statement made sense, but he was afraid that the two women would be at odds, so it was difficult to decide for a while.
Su Nianli was also eager to try and said: "Don't worry, once there is danger, we will flee immediately. There may be many people in the Scarlet Blood Sect who can defeat us, but it is not easy to kill us."
Cheng Ling had no choice but to take out a dozen talismans from the storage ring and handed them to the two women and said, "Okay! Here are the invisibility talisman and the acceleration talisman. Remember to be careful. After everything is done, just go back to where we came in." The place can be easily left.”
The two women happily took it and looked at each other. Qin Zijin turned around and walked towards the main hall on the right, while Su Nianli went to the left.
Cheng Ling shook his head and smiled bitterly. He could only hide his figure and moved towards the main hall in front!
