Jiang Wan's sword stopped in mid-air.
The system's sensing range is about three miles, so Bai Shuang is nearby.
However, the system prevented him from continuing to pursue Bai Shuang's traces, thinking that there must be some danger.
The danger at this time is most likely a corpse puppet.
"Is the corpse puppet's lair ahead?"
Already accustomed to the extremely smart IQ of its host, the system nodded calmly, "About three kilometers ahead, there are at least tens of thousands of zombies."
Tens of thousands.
Including those who were slaughtered by them before, the number of this corpse puppet nest should be around 20,000.
Jiang Wan knew that on the way to Fuxi City, the eight major sects were besieged by corpse puppets almost at the same time. According to the information she received, the number of corpse puppets besieging each sect was at least close to ten thousand. , this does not include the number of corpses of those small sects that were besieged.
Therefore, judging from the number and spatial distribution, there are at least seven such similar zombie lairs.
Tsk, the lineup of the Corpse Clan was stronger than she imagined.
The current location is in the southeast of Fuxi City, so this lair should be the group that besieged Fengming Sect before.
"Bai Shuang was arrested by the Corpse Sect?"
"That should be the case. Bai Shuang's current location is in the Corpse Puppet's lair."
Bai Shuang has a poison repellent bead on her body, so even the corpse puppets in the Nascent Soul realm cannot get close to her. Then, she can only be the person behind the scenes controlling the corpse puppets.
Although Jiang Wan is not afraid of the corpse puppet's ability to infect, no one knows the specific situation in the corpse puppet's lair, so Jiang Wan is not ready to kill Bai Shuang himself.
The strength of the Corpse Sect should not be underestimated, and Jiang Wan did not want to be targeted by the Corpse Sect again.
After finally using Hu Jiu's power to kill most of his enemies, Jiang Wan still wanted to live in peace for a few days.
On his way back, Jiang Wan happened to receive news from Su Yu, saying that Murong Lingxiao had been found.
However, Jiang Wan always felt that something was wrong with Su Yu's words, so she guessed that something had happened to Murong Lingxiao.
When Jiang Wan rushed over, Murong Lingxiao was lying on the ground with a lifeless look on his face, with dense wounds everywhere on his body. Not far away was the body of the one-horned ice crystal beast that had been torn into several pieces.
Jiang Wan stepped forward and felt Murong Lingxiao's pulse. He could hardly feel it anymore, and his face suddenly turned cold.
Murong Lingxiao had a good impression on her, and he had helped her take care of Dajuan several times before.
He took out an eighth-grade healing elixir from his storage bag and stuffed it into Murong Lingxiao's mouth. Then he released his spiritual energy and pulled the elixir downwards slowly. Only when the elixir began to take effect did Jiang Wan stand up and look at him with a pale face. The five beautiful people said, "Pick up the Great Elder on your back and let's leave here."
This place is too close to the corpse puppet's lair. Although Hu Jiu is there, Hu Jiu is still an unstable factor and may fall asleep at some point.
Seeing Murong Yi with only one arm left, Lize took a step forward, picked up Murong Lingxiao on his back, and then summoned his spiritual sword.
The big scroll on Jiang Wan's shoulder suddenly jumped down, and rushed towards the body of the one-horned ice crystal beast on the side. After pulling it twice, he rushed over with an inner elixir the size of a fist.
The one-horned ice crystal beast is an ice-type mysterious beast, so Dajuan has no need for this inner elixir. Jiang Wan took advantage of everyone's unpreparedness and secretly put it into the flowing light bracelet.
The system in the sea of consciousness suddenly sighed, "You can't help but spend money. The unicorn ice crystal beast that Bai Shuang spent so much effort to get has just fallen into your hands. I guess you will be killed if you find out." So angry."
Jiang Wan touched the sleeping Hu Jiu in his arms, "She won't be able to make a contract for a while anyway, so it would be a waste to give it to her."
Although Bai Shuang captured the unicorn ice crystal beast, the strength gap between the two was quite large, so there was no contractual relationship between the two.
The reason why Bai Shuang is able to control the unicorn ice crystal beast is because the soul stone that binds the unicorn ice crystal beast is in Bai Shuang's hands.
Soul stones are a unique method used by the Abyss Continent to control spirit beasts. They are specially prepared for cultivators with low cultivation but who need high-level spirit beasts. For example, Yu Chengfeng relied on this method before.
Under normal circumstances, a cultivator will not make a contract with a spiritual beast that is stronger than himself, and it is easy to be backlashed. At that time, not only the master-servant relationship will be reversed, but also people may become obsessed with it.
Murong Lingxiao woke up a day later. Although he was still seriously injured, he was finally no longer in fear of his life. Everyone could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Only then did everyone understand what happened.
It turned out that last night, when Murong Lingxiao rode the unicorn ice crystal beast and left to find the person behind the scenes, he was discovered by two zombie puppets in the late stage of Nascent Soul not long after.
The strength of the corpse puppets in the later stage of Yuanying has reached the peak of Yuanying's perfect state, so a deadly battle started between the two corpse puppets and Murong Lingxiao and the one-horned ice crystal beast.
Fortunately, Murong Lingxiao and the Unicorn Ice Crystal Beast both have the strength in the early stage of void refining, so even if they have to worry about the toxins on the corpse puppet, they can still have the upper hand.
But at this moment, a woman covered in black gauze suddenly came.
Under the instruction of the woman, the two corpse puppets surrounded the unicorn ice crystal beast at the same time, and she was directly fighting with Murong Lingxiao.
The woman's strength is also in the early stage of Xuzhou training, but she is slightly higher than Murong Lingxiao.
Although the strength of the unicorn ice crystal beast is slightly higher than that of the two corpse puppets, the offensive of the two corpse puppets is very fierce. The unicorn ice crystal beast suffered some injuries when it was captured by the auction house and has not recovered yet, so the two corpse puppets An hour later, the one-horned ice crystal beast was defeated by two corpse puppets and was injured.
The poison spread rapidly in its body, and its strength was greatly damaged, and it was quickly torn into several pieces by two corpse puppets.
Murong Lingxiao was not much better. He had countless wounds, big and small. If it weren't for the belief that the disciples of the Tianyan Sect were still waiting for him, he would have collapsed long ago.
But despite this, he still didn't make it to the end.
Murong Lingxiao thought he was dead, but when he opened his eyes again, it was now.
woman in black gauze
Jiang Wan's eyes moved slightly and he asked, "Who was behind the ambush by the Corpse Sect on the way to Fuxi City?"
Murong Lingxiao did not hide anything, "She is also a woman in black veil, but her strength is perfected in Nascent Soul."
Jiang Wanran understood and silently put the pronoun "Woman in Black Veil" into the dangerous person sequence, and then asked the system to pray for her to keep them away from her.
The system readily agreed, and then began a minute-long prayer.
The effect of Jiang Wan's elixir was extremely good. Murong Lingxiao could clearly feel that the wounds on his body were constantly healing, and his strength had also recovered a lot.
He looked around the disciples, his expression suddenly paused, and then he spoke in a calm voice, "Where's Bai Shuang?"
