With the cover of these ordinary people, Zheng Senlin and others became even more inconspicuous.
As the team marched along, it didn't take long for everyone to see a towering mountain peak. If this kind of mountain peak were on earth, it would definitely belong to the level of famous mountains and rivers. It is tall, mighty and covers a relatively large area.
"It is obvious that the concentration of spiritual energy here is much higher..." Tu Xiaoling followed the team and expressed her own opinion, "At least it is much stronger than Bianhuang Town and Xuexia City. Why not build it nearby and designate the capital as the capital?" over there."
She was confused. After all, for a monk, the most important thing was aura.
"What I heard is that Xuexia City is one of the places with the richest spiritual energy in the entire country. It's just that the large formation in the imperial city absorbed all the spiritual energy, which resulted in the surrounding spiritual energy being thin. This is also the reason why Xuexia City has the most abundant spiritual energy. One of the reasons why people have poor cultivation ability. Masters will go there to trade, but few masters stay there for a long time..."
While everyone was exchanging information, they saw the crowd around them gradually dispersing.
We have arrived near Qingmang Mountain, and there are obviously more monsters around. Ordinary people have no ability to protect themselves. Although everyone wants to make money, their lives are more important.
After arriving here, Zheng Senlin had already seen several wild beasts breaking into the crowd. These beasts are stronger than ordinary beasts and are already considered semi-demon beasts. If it were not for the monks in the team, they would simply be like a tiger among sheep.
Most people would not choose to take risks, and the number of people in the team became smaller and smaller as they walked forward. When they reached the foot of Qingmang Mountain, there were only more than a hundred people left in the team, and all of them were monks.
"Something is wrong." Zheng Senlin's original plan was to wait for the royal family to go up the mountain and start a strategy of forcing transactions by force, but along the way, he judged the team through the breathing rhythm, smell, and the "emotional color" spread out in the human body. There was more than just a group of people inside who were staring at the royal family.
There are others preparing to launch the attack.
"What's wrong?" Han Dong also discovered some clues, but he just had good eyes and was not so sure.
"Qingmang Mountain is very humane. The guy with a darker face in the team and the few people around him have a strong offensive aura. They are here to attack the royal family. I will go to the royal team first to find out the situation and I will give it to you later. Give the signal and you play it by ear.”
"Okay." Han Dong nodded on one side and watched as Zheng Senlin's figure gradually disappeared and disappeared completely.
…
At this time, the royal team had already gone up the mountain and reached halfway up the mountain.
Like Earth, the mountains are very foggy.
Different from the earth, the fog here is thicker due to the spiritual energy. The visibility of normal people around is less than five meters. Even the monks can only see dozens of meters away at most.
This Zheng Senlin provided a good concealment effect. He came to a high point halfway up the mountain and monitored the group of people from a few kilometers away.
After the royal family arrived halfway up the mountain, the people in the team began to light a kind of spice. After this "demon-attracting incense" was ignited, the smell spread very quickly, and soon three or four demonic beasts gathered over it.
Among them are monsters that look like snakes, monsters that look like lizards, and a bird-shaped monster that looks like a pterosaur.
After the arrival of these monster beasts, the peripheral guards in the team stopped hunting, and the experts also stopped their movements. Two people in the team who looked to be eighteen or nineteen years old walked out of the team.
Needless to say, this is the protagonist of today’s coming-of-age ceremony.
The two princes, one male and one female, began to try to hunt those monsters as soon as they left the team.
They first struck with flying swords, and then followed with various magical weapons, fighting fiercely with the monsters halfway up the mountain.
As the flying swords and magic weapons collided, Zheng Senlin roughly estimated the strength of the two princes.
He has been here for some time, and it is easy to deduce the monk's general strength through energy fluctuations and destructive power.
These two princes belong to the level of perfect Qi refining stage, but there are many flying swords and sharp magic weapons, which are obviously much more powerful than the average Qi refining stage. Apart from anything else, he had never heard of a magic weapon like the "immortal rope" they used to capture monsters in Bianhuang Town.
The two sides in this battle were close in strength, so none of the experts from the royal family intervened.
If nothing unexpected happened, after a period of fighting, the two princes should be able to capture the monster. But at this moment, Zheng Senlin clearly felt something was wrong.
The wind blew up for no reason at the scene, and as the wind blew around, a smell of "demon-inducing incense" that was dozens of times stronger than before spread throughout the Qingmang Mountain area.
As the smell spread, the sound of beast roars came from all over Qingmang Mountain.
"There is a situation!" At this time, anyone who is not a fool will understand that something has happened, and the people of the royal family are naturally not stupid. At that moment, a foundation-building master flew out, first killed the monster beasts that were fighting fiercely with the prince, and took the prince back. I just want to leave with the team.
But just as they took action, there was a sudden fluctuation in the air, and the surrounding mountains and rocks suddenly emitted light, imprisoning the entire area.
Fortunately, there were many experts on the scene, and they immediately broke through the formation, but because of such a short delay, large numbers of monsters swept in.
The combat power of these monsters is not particularly high. After all, more powerful monsters will not be easily attracted by low-level things like "demon-attracting incense".
However, monsters of the same level are much more powerful than humans due to their physical strength and spiritual energy reserves. When a large area of monsters attacks, the guards on the outside are no match for them.
Those masters of the second-level Royal Guard who have practiced Qi for more than eight levels can hardly resist the attack of large-scale monsters even if they form a battle formation.
Those Ouchi masters who have half-stepped the foundation are better. When they get together, they can protect themselves with ease.
They resisted the attack of the monsters, and the royal family also gathered together, preparing to fight a way out.
After all, the highest combat power here is the four foundation-building masters of the royal family and the two leading foundation-building masters of the Ouchi master. If they open the way, just a wave of monsters of this level will not pose a threat.
But since someone wants to ambush, all variables will be taken into account.
Just when the most elite group of experts were about to break out of the siege, a strange flute sound came from the mountains. Everyone at the scene immediately became dizzy. The monsters were unaffected and even attacked the crowd more excitedly.
At the same time, more than a hundred monks flew in with swords and directly blocked the way of the royal family.
Being able to fly with a sword is basically the level of half-step foundation building.
And the eight people leading the way were obviously more than half a step into building the foundation.
Because the expressions of those royal masters changed drastically when they saw the people blocking the way.
"People of the Ghost Control Sect, you seem to have crossed the line. This is the territory of the Snow Spirit Sword Sect!"
