Snowy.
Lu Ping strode forward with Su Tang on his back, still walking as fast as he could on the knee-deep snow.
The Xuanwu Academy following him felt uncomfortable at this time. On normal days, with their four-spirited state, they would be able to walk in this ice and snow as fast as Lu Ping. However, only one of them is in good condition at the moment. Of the other twenty-five people, eight were seriously injured, ten were injured, and seven were now silent corpses. This undoubtedly made the journey more difficult, and it took a lot of effort to chase after Lu Ping.
There is still some distance to go to Yandang Mountain to enter the customs. Many of them are actually in worse condition than Su Tang and need more recuperation. Now that they are supporting each other, it seems impossible to complete this journey.
This made camping very difficult. Seeing Lu Ping walking away without even looking back, it was obviously impossible to show any consideration or compromise to them. If you follow them together, you won't be able to keep up; if you go separately, wouldn't it be terrible if the seriously injured people left behind meet the people from the Dark Academy again.
Just as he was wondering how to deal with it, Xu Chuan, who had been seriously injured and had been in coma for some time, slowly woke up at this moment. His fellow disciples gathered around him in surprise. Xu Chuan learned that not only had the Divine Martial Seal not been retrieved, but the Wanhua Cong had also fallen into the road. In Ping's hands, he almost fainted again. Fortunately, a fellow student quickly informed Lu Ping that he had promised to return the two super-grade magic weapons. Xu Chuan became much more excited.
"So what is this now?" Xu Chuan asked.
After someone else briefly explained the situation, Xu Chuan met Yingsu's troubled gaze.
"The overall situation is the most important thing. Teacher, just follow him and bring a few right-hand assistants who can help. The rest of us will just wait here for rescue," Xu Chuan said.
After he started, other disciples who were seriously injured and unable to survive also expressed that they no longer need to worry about them.
"Okay." Yingsu gritted his teeth and made a decision, "Gai Ming, Jiang Yuncheng, you two are with me. The rest will do their best to treat the injured and wait for support."
"teacher……"
"That's it, there's no need for me to bring too many people." Yingsu guessed what Xu Chuan was going to say and interrupted directly.
Xu Chuan looked at Lu Ping's figure without looking back, and it was true when he thought about it. In terms of strength, Lu Ping was already strong, and now he had two super-grade magic weapons in his hands. There is no use in bringing in too many of these wounded soldiers right now. Two more people go there just so that if something unexpected happens, there will always be one or two people who can send some news back. Gai Ming and Jiang Yuncheng, who were staying at the campsite, were two people who had made great achievements in this field.
"So, teacher, please take care of yourself." Xu Chuan said.
"You should also be more careful." Yingsu said, subconsciously looking behind them. He paid careful attention along the way, feeling that no one was following him.
"Don't worry, we can take care of it." Xu Chuan said.
Everyone looked relaxed, but deep down they knew what they might face at this time. It's just that everyone puts the academy first, knows what these two super-grade weapons mean, and is already prepared to sacrifice. What's more, the current situation is just unknown, so there is no need to die.
"Let's go." Yingsu said, leading Gai Ming and Jiang Yuncheng to Lu Ping's side in an instant. The two Xuanwu disciples were not seriously injured, so they could keep up with Lu Ping's speed at this time.
"What?" Lu Ping noticed something was wrong at this time. Looking back, he saw that except for these three people, everyone else in Xuanwu had stopped moving forward.
"They are too injured and can't keep up with you. They will take a break here." Yingsu said.
"Then should I walk slower?" Lu Ping asked.
These words drifted into the ears of Xu Chuan and others who were watching them off, and the tragic expressions of victims on their faces suddenly became unbearable. Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and then we look at the camp together.
"That's...very good." Yingsu replied with difficulty.
This is of course the best situation, but it’s a pity that everyone’s emotions are already in place. The people who had stopped started again and followed with the bodies of the seriously injured and the dead. Lu Ping then walked much slower, and everyone became less strenuous.
Everyone in Xuanwu had mixed emotions.
This guy originally had a deep hatred for them, but now he is so considerate of them. If he successfully returns two super-grade magic weapons in the future, how should we get along with him in the future?
Everyone was in an extremely torn state of mind. They never thought that easily taking back the super-grade magic weapon would be extremely uncomfortable for them.
But no matter what, as they were torn apart at this moment, their resistance to Lu Ping was finally not that strong.
Rumble......
At this moment, there was another sound like the earth was shattering in the distance from the direction of Jiechuan, but it was louder than any time before. The sound actually contained the power of soul power. A person like Xu Chuan, who was seriously injured and fainted easily, was knocked unconscious again before he could resist. Others also changed their expressions, stopped, and looked in the direction of Jiechuan.
In the wind and snow with extremely poor visual conditions, they suddenly saw thick dust filling the air in the direction of Jiechuan, billowing upwards until it touched the sky. The rumbling sound also kept coming along with the tumbling, but the impact gradually began to weaken compared to the previous wave.
"What is this?" The Xuanwu disciples were all talking about it. They could feel such an impact at such a distance. If they were in it, they would be broken into pieces.
"It's a large customization in Jiechuan." Lu Ping said.
At this time, people from various major colleges on the edge of Jiechuan were even more shocked. The loud noise covered up too many exclamations. Countless cultivators who climbed up the ice peak to investigate the situation fell rapidly from the peak like dumplings. Behind them, the huge impact waves gathered by the power of soul rolled down the ice peak. Those who fell slightly slower were swallowed up in an instant, and no bones were left.
The major colleges stationed outside Jiechuan also realized that the impact of this huge wave would not stop at the foot of the mountain, and they all shouted and evacuated backwards. Among them, there are inevitably some who are low-level and slow-moving, and are drowned by the huge waves. And those who escaped this disaster could not breathe a sigh of relief. After the huge wave hit the ground, it covered the sky with snowflakes, and then rushed forward like a tsunami. Everyone was trying to retreat and escaped for several miles. The impact of the huge waves gradually subsided. The strong wind that remained was still dangerous to ordinary people, but it was a small disaster that could be resisted by cultivators.
Each college quickly rescued its own injured, and several figures gathered together during the ups and downs. It was the deans of the four major colleges who led the way.
"What are the casualties?" As soon as they met, Zhou Xiao, the dean of Nantian College, asked with a face full of anger.
"It's okay, but some colleges..." Xu Mai said worriedly. Academies have different strengths, and their ability to withstand various situations is naturally different. Although the four major colleges are always the first to take the lead, this outbreak of customization is indistinguishable. Many weak colleges suffered extremely heavy damage from this wave of impact.
"This is only on the periphery. If you have broken in at this time..." Hai Yuesheng, the dean of Queyue, is also a first-class big shot. His voice was trembling a little at this time. When I first saw this large-scale customization, I just felt that the momentum was amazing and it was really no small matter. But when the finale finally broke out, they realized that they had underestimated this big customization after all. If there was a chance of escaping in the previous attacks, this last wave cut off all thoughts of survival.
At this time, the top figures from the three empires also came to the four deans under the protection of guards.
"Four deans, are you okay?" Emperor Qingfeng's prince Yan Ming asked hurriedly.
"There are some casualties." Xuanwu Qiansu replied.
"Do you have any clues?" Zhu Xie, the dean of Changfengzhong Academy, asked.
The four deans all shook their heads. They all sent their own men to explore the surrounding area, but so far they have not received any returns.
Everyone's face was as dark as water. This is a cultivator army that has gathered all the forces in the world, but so far, it has not even touched a hair of its opponent, but has already suffered a large number of casualties, which can be called a joke.
"The most urgent task is to find out their next move." Yan Ming said.
At this moment, a cultivator in the Qingfeng Empire uniform came rushing towards him. However, when he saw that Yan Ming was with the four major colleges and two other high-level officials of the empire, he immediately became hesitant to speak.
"Let me know if you find anything," Yan Ming said.
"Yes, my subordinates found some traces of battle and several corpses in the southwest," the visitor said.
"Whose body?"
"It should be someone from the Dark Academy." The visitor said.
"Where's our side?" Yan Ming asked.
"Nothing was found, but there are traces of southbound traffic at the scene." The visitor said.
"Going south, so far, we don't have any instructions to go south, right?" Yan Ming looked at the people in front of him.
Everyone shook their heads.
"Then this group heading south may be our target?" Yan Ming said.
"My subordinates have sent people to follow the traces." The visitor said.
"Well done." Yan Ming nodded.
"So everyone." Yan Ming looked at everyone again, "What do you think of this clue?"
