West Gate in the afternoon.
The great elder of Jueshi Palace came all the way from Tonglin City with a carriage pulled by a patrol beast that his elders and disciples were riding on, and wanted to leave the city through the city gate.
However, they were not the only ones traveling with them. Behind them, the team from the Ba Dao Sect followed closely, led by their sect leader Lan Tianguang. This man was quite domineering. He held the golden sword casually in his hand, and the blade kept flashing with cold light. Even the residents of Tonglin City couldn't help but move aside when they saw it. The cold aura emanating from the blade alone made ordinary people tremble.
There were also many sect members on both sides of the road, and the two teams were instantly recognized.
"Isn't this the team of Jueshi Palace and Ba Daomen? How did these two families get together?" Someone asked in a low voice on both sides of the road.
"It's these two teams. Haven't you heard that they have always been on good terms, and they are also from the same county. It's not surprising that they sit together." Someone explained in a low voice.
At this time, someone else whispered: "I heard from the gossip that at last night's auction, Jueshi Palace won a piece of Lingshu Essence. Now it seems that the news should be true. People from Jueshi Palace should want it." Leave Tonglin City immediately and return to Jueshi Palace as quickly as possible."
"No wonder they are traveling in such a hurry. Naha Daomen is probably a guard even if they are traveling together." Someone suddenly realized.
"Hmph! Can you leave here smoothly as a peerless palace? Those forces that have not obtained the true essence of Lingshu will never give up. There will be a big war later!" Someone sneered.
"Sure enough, the essence of spiritual saliva is not that easy to get. I just don't know how many people will die this time."
"It doesn't matter how many people die, as long as it's not me who dies!"
"That's right, then maybe we can still catch something, why don't we follow behind?" Someone suggested in a low voice, his voice a little excited.
"Of course we have to follow. It's not just us, there are many people who will follow, either watching the show or wanting to follow behind to pick up the slack like us."
There were many such whispers on both sides of the road, and people kept coming from the city after receiving the news. These people all had different thoughts.
At this time, the teams from Jueshi Palace and Ba Daomen passed through the West City Gate.
Tonglin City is under the joint jurisdiction of Jianxiao Pavilion, Liuyun Sect and other five major sects. All kinds of flying are strictly prohibited in the city, so even big sects like Jueshi Palace must abide by it. As the saying goes, don't look at the face of the Buddha to see the monk's face. The five major sects Face must be given, and among them is Tong Lindian, whose power is not weaker than his own.
But as long as they leave five miles outside Tonglin City, they are no longer restricted and can fly away from here.
So as soon as they left the city gate, the convoys from Jueshi Palace and Ba Dao Gate immediately accelerated their speed and galloped forward. It seemed that they also knew about the coming storm.
Behind them, many people from sects armed with various weapons followed them out of the city gate, but kept a slight distance from the team in the Jueshi Palace in front. This distance was not long and they could arrive quickly.
Now this place still belongs to the scope of Tonglin City, and fighting is prohibited, so those who follow behind are very restrained. As long as they are five miles outside the city gate, they can do whatever they want, and the five major forces in Tonglin City will have no control over them. .
At this time, Lan Tianguang, the master of the Ba Dao Sect, quickly came to the side of the leader of the Peerless Palace, the Great Elder.
"Great Elder, those bugs behind you are following a little too closely. How about..." Lan Tianguang looked at the people following behind him and frowned slightly.
"It doesn't matter, those are just chickens and dogs, nothing to worry about. As long as we are five miles away, we can fly into the air." The great elder said calmly.
"Well, what the Great Elder said makes sense, but we have also received news that some other major factions seem to be working against us." Lan Tianguang said further, frowning even deeper.
"I don't know which bastard leaked the news that we got the essence of Lingshu. Those forces that failed to get it are naturally unwilling to give up. Especially the Ghost Fire Sect, he must have a share!" At this point, his face was calm. The great elder of Jueshi Palace also showed an expression of resentment at this moment, "If you let me know, I will definitely make him unable to eat and walk around!"
"Fortunately, we were well prepared. The palace master proudly gave me a special treasure before coming. It can help us survive the crisis safely." At this time, the great elder regained his composure and gained confidence in his heart.
"Oh? What treasure?" After hearing this, Lan Tianguang was also a little excited and asked.
"The palace master said that unless you take out the treasure and use it, you can't tell anything about it. This is all for our own good." After saying that, the elder of Jueshi Palace glanced at the master of Ba Dao Sect beside him.
Seeing what the other party said, Lan Tianguang quickly apologized: "I was the one who was abrupt, don't blame the Great Elder."
"Well, let's all be prepared. If those guys want to ambush us, they must be not far ahead." The great elder immediately ordered.
"Yes." Lan Tianguang nodded in response, and then shouted to the people behind him: "Everyone, be prepared, the enemy may be waiting for us ahead."
Hearing the shouts from the leader of the Ba Dao Sect, everyone in the Jueshi Palace and Ba Dao Sect teams tensed up and showed nervous expressions. Even though everyone had expected it before setting off, they still couldn't bear it after hearing the shouts. They were very nervous, and some people were even a little trembling.
Wuli Di arrived soon. As the master of the Ba Dao Sect gave an order, all the sky patrol beasts flapped their wings and pulled the carriage behind them into the air, leaving only a group of people behind them holding various weapons and having their own thoughts, waiting stupidly. Eye.
"Damn! They've all flown into the sky, how can they still pick up the pieces?" Someone immediately complained among the staring crowd.
"Why are you so anxious? We can only be considered as the aggressors. The forces that are really ready to kill us have not yet taken action."
"That's right, the fun is about to begin. Just wait and pick up the missing pieces." Someone added.
A minute later, the patrol beast pulled the carriage and flew higher and higher. Just when some people in the convoy wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, dozens of figures suddenly appeared in the sky not far away, most of them carrying flying wings. He stared coldly at the oncoming motorcade.
And in front of these people were six figures standing in the air, with their hands behind their backs and their eyes cold and piercing.
These six figures did not use flying wings and were just suspended in the air. However, all of them wore masks and dressed in black.
A few seconds later, the convoys from Jueshi Palace and Ba Daomen flew closer.
After feeling the aura emanating from the people who stopped in front, all the patrol beasts stopped in their tracks, flapped their wings uneasily, and let out bursts of low roars.
At this time, the Great Elder of Jueshi Palace and the Master of Ba Dao Sect also flew to the front of the convoy, facing the people blocking the way in front of them.
"Why, if you dare to stop my Jueshi Palace convoy, don't you dare to show your true colors?" The elder of Jueshi Palace spoke first, and his words were full of ridicule.
Among the six figures opposite, one in the middle said lazily: "Okay, Elder Lu, don't say anything like this anymore. Our purpose is very clear. As long as you hand over the essence of Lingshu, we will let you go. Don't be embarrassed, otherwise we can only rob it by force."
"Hmph! Do you think I don't know who you are? Li Qiu Shan, the leader of the Ghost Fire Sect!" the elder of Jueshi Palace replied with a sullen face.
There is no way around it, the people of the Will-O-Wisp Sect are the most recognizable, especially their ghastly eyes like will-o'-the-wisps, which can almost be said to be the symbol of their sect.
After being recognized, the leader of the Ghost Fire Sect didn't care at all and still said casually: "So what if you know it's me? Others are afraid of you, Peerless Palace, but I, the Ghost Fire Sect, are not afraid! I advise you to honestly hand over the essence of Lingshu. So that you don’t end up suffering.”
At this time, many people had already arrived one after another on flying wings to the surroundings of the confrontation. After hearing what the leader of the Ghost Fire Sect said, they all showed surprise and doubt, and then some people suddenly realized it.
Upon seeing this, someone immediately asked.
At this time, someone explained the confusion: "I have heard that the old leader of the Ghost Fire Sect has been in retreat since he abdicated, hoping to reach the soul realm. However, just half a year ago, the Ghost Fire Sect held a grand celebration and invited many sect members. Went to watch the ceremony, and those who went to watch the ceremony were very confused afterwards. The Ghost Fire Sect had not had any special festivals or happy events recently. In addition, at that time, the leader of the Ghost Fire Sect smiled but did not answer the sect leaders who came to congratulate them. It was full of mystery, so afterwards Some people speculate that it is very likely that the old leader of the Ghost Fire Sect successfully survived the catastrophe and entered the soul realm. "
"What? You mean the Ghost Fire Sect now has a soul-level person in charge?" Someone was immediately surprised after hearing this.
"It shouldn't be wrong. Without such confidence, the leader of the Ghost Fire Sect would not be able to say such a thing! You must know that Jueshi Palace is the strongest faction among the nearby counties. Together with Tonglin Palace, they are two heroes. There is a living person in their palace. A strong man in the soul realm! Otherwise, how could the Ghost Fire Sect Master dare to make a mistake in front of the Jueshi Palace?"
"Is it any wonder? The young master of the Ghost Fire Sect dared to be so arrogant and domineering outside Tonglin City a few days ago. It turns out that there is a strong soul in the sect! Let me tell you, even if they are on good terms with Jianxiao Pavilion, they will not be able to do anything. Tonglin City is so presumptuous. After all, Tonglin City is jointly managed by five major sects, and this is the reason." Many people realized it later.
"In any case, neither side of the confrontation is something we can mess with. Let's just wait and see what happens."
"Brother Dao is right. I think we should retreat a little. If a fight breaks out, we won't be affected."
Someone around made a suggestion, which was immediately approved. The idle people who gathered around all flew back a certain distance, leaving enough space for the two sides confronting each other in the middle.
At this time, people are constantly flying in the air here, and a large number of people have gathered on the ground. Everyone is staring at the two sides in the sky with their own thoughts. Those who want to watch the excitement or pick up the pieces of the upcoming battle. Everyone was excited.
In addition to these small sects and casual cultivators, other major sects who received the news also sent people to the scene, but these people were hiding in the dark. Among them were Dong Tianling and the great elder of Shuntian Escort Bureau. As well as Tong Lindian, Liuyun Sect, Ludangu, Linyi Gang, Shuitian Pavilion and other respected sect leaders or elders in their respective sects, everyone is paying attention to the upcoming battle.
