Yang Liuqing's heart skipped a beat. He ran over and took a look. He saw the man lying face down on the ground, with a pool of dried blood under his body. His body under his clothes was gray and withered, looking like a mummy.
Yang Liuqing was trembling. He groped around on the mummy and found a storage ring with the mark of Lingxi Mountain. There was also a word "Yun" engraved on it. This was his junior brother Zeng Yun.
"May I ask, senior, by whose hands my junior brother and I died? What kind of evil spell was this? Why did the dead turn into mummies?" Yang Liuqing's inner grief was also mixed with strong fear.
"You just take the deceased away and put him in peace. Don't ask about anything else!" Venerable Xuanji was only thinking about how to find Rong Xianxian who had hidden the secret treasure in the cave. How could he care about anything else.
"Senior, this matter is of great importance. This junior has sent the news back to the master. Please return the core disk of the teleportation array to avoid any inconvenience." Yang Liuqing requested.
"The purpose of closing the teleportation array is to prevent the murderer from escaping. Now that the murderer has not been caught, the teleportation array cannot be restored. You'd better return to the town, lest you lose your life here!" Lord Xuanji said with a cold face.
Yang Liuqing and others looked at each other, and the disciples of several other sects had also reported the situation here to their sect. However, before the elders of the sect arrived, they were unable to resist the most powerful and highest-status Master Xuanji. .
Lord Xuanji watched indifferently as the surviving disciples of each sect carried away the monks who died in the encirclement battle. There were more than a hundred people who had just died under the strange green light. These people's cultivation levels were all Between the Blood Refining Realm and the Condensing Spirit Realm, he is considered the backbone of his respective sects.
There was no sadness in his heart, only unspeakable anguish, anguish that the two people were obviously not at a high level, but they were able to escape from the catastrophe, and yet they ran so fast, and hid in the secret treasure of the cave in the blink of an eye. His left hand Holding a piece of red silk, he held a bright vial in his right hand. There was blood dripping from the red silk into the vial. This bottle contained the woman's blood, and they in Yukong City were the best at blood media location.
He stared closely at the void in front of him, where even where the two disappeared, the secret treasure of the cave was located.
He had just tried using blood as a guide to see if he could sense it, but he found nothing. However, even if it was a secret treasure from the cave, it would be impossible for him to run away on his own. Of this, he was sure.
Lord Xuanji has already sent a message to his master, City Master Tianyi. He has the woman's blood in his hands and knows the exact location of the Cave Heaven Secret Treasure. As long as he uses the space tearing technique in a small area, he can tear open the Cave Heaven Secret Treasure. Then use the secret technique to kill the woman. Once the woman dies, the secret treasure of the cave becomes ownerless and will naturally appear.
Although after reporting it to the sect, it would be difficult for him to own the secret treasure of the cave, but it was still better than letting other sects take advantage of it. What's more, he was the next city lord of Yukong City, and sooner or later these treasures would be handed over to him.
After receiving the secret message from Master Xuanji, City Lord Tianyi sent two senior brothers from the Mahayana Realm. The two senior brothers had been hiding from the world for many years. This time they came out because of the exploration of the new territory. However, they heard that their nephews discovered After getting clues about the secret treasure in the cave, he immediately agreed to go to help.
The five teleportation arrays in the Yellow Wind Desert have all been closed, and they cannot be used here in Yukong City. The two immortal monarchs also used flying boats to rush to the Yellow Wind Desert. When they arrived there, they just met Master Xuanji. Immortal Lord Qingyuan and Master Lu Feng from Xishan also arrived.
Lord Xuanji knew that the various sects would send people one after another in the future, but if they could delay it for a while, he still pretended that the person they wanted to arrest was very good at pretending that he was afraid that he would use the teleportation array as an excuse to escape, so he insisted on not opening the teleportation array for the time being. .
Qingyuan Immortal Lord of Lingxi Mountain was extremely shocked when he saw those corpses, and had no objection to Yukong City's decision. Although the disciples of the other three sects passed the news back to their sects, they did not know the inside story after all. What was conveyed was only the casualties of the respective sects and the news of the closure of the teleportation array in Yukong City, which did not attract the attention of the senior officials of the respective sects.
"Xuanji, so many disciples died of the same reason at the same time, can you tell me about the situation at that time?" Immortal Lord Qingyuan looked heavy.
"Senior Qingyuan, the thing is like this..." Venerable Xuanji recounted the situation selectively. He concealed the matter of Rong Xianxian and the Cave Heaven Secret Treasure, and focused on the strange black disk and the deaths of many disciples. .
"So, you didn't see the murderer clearly?" Immortal Lord Qingyuan asked with a frown.
"Yes, I was far away at the time. I only saw unusual movement here. When I rushed over, the murderer was nowhere to be found." Venerable Xuanji replied.
"Why didn't you quickly call for help and instead close the teleportation array?" Immortal Lord Qingyuan asked.
"Junior is also worried that the murderer cannot be found for so long, which means that he is very good at disguise or has a high-level invisibility magic weapon. So many people died at once, which will inevitably cause panic. In case that person mixes among the disciples, I can take advantage of it. If you escape with the teleportation array, you will not be able to find anyone in this world!" Venerable Xuanji had already thought of his words, which were so reasonable and well-founded that no one could refute them.
"Then have you ever thought that if this happens, the current disciples will also be in danger!" Qingyuan Immortal Lord still feels that something is wrong?
"The murderer has been seriously injured in the calamity. Now he is just lingering. Although he is missing, it is not easy to hurt people. I have reminded all the disciples to return to the station and conduct investigations. I will stay here and will definitely protect the remaining ones. The safety of my disciples." Venerable Xuanji looked at the ravines and scorched earth struck by the thunder, and shook his head.
"Let's go to the town and have a look!" I can't ask anything from Master Xuanji. Why not ask my disciples and see if I can gain anything?
After the two people from Lingxi Mountain left, Venerable Xuanji paid tribute to the two masters, and immediately went straight to the point. He set up a barrier around it, pointed to a direction, and asked the two masters to use the space tearing technique, and he He will use the blood mediator Qian Qiansi to catch the woman hiding in the Cave Heaven Secret Treasure. As long as she is killed, the Cave Heaven Secret Treasure will be obtained. By then, it will be too late for the people in Lingxi Mountain to react or find out anything.
The two uncles were also unambiguous. They took their fingerprints and began to perform spells in the direction pointed by Master Xuanji.
In the foggy space, Ning Qingyun was seriously injured and on the verge of death, and Rong Xianxian was also in a semi-conscious state. Her body and soul were severely injured. At this moment, there was some trembling at the entrance to the foggy space, and Rong Xianxian suddenly spit out something with a "pop" sound. A mouthful of blood.
She opened her eyes in confusion and looked at the entrance. She felt that someone outside was tearing the space apart.
