The real fire furnace was running at full speed, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. When the wanderer reached the mountainside, he felt energetic, his physical strength was fully restored, and he no longer needed the support of others. It's just that he can't digest the spiritual energy at the moment, so he can only wait for the real fire furnace to convert the spiritual energy into true energy.
"Brother You has great recovery ability. After a while, he was able to move freely."
Mei Yi was very surprised to see You Ziji recover so quickly. He admired You Ziji's courage and cultivation, and he grew to respect this young man who was younger than himself along the way. You Ziji felt the change in his attitude and was embarrassed to continue arguing with him.
"It's just that my physical strength has recovered. Now that I don't have time to meditate, my energy has been restored slowly."
Lingqing stood on the bluestone, looking at the pursuers in the distance, and said with a smile: "If you hold on a little longer, you can rest. These commanders are too timid. They can clearly fly with weapons, but they dare not catch up, which has delayed our progress." journey."
Lingyue laughed on the side and said: "Senior brother, your skills are so great, how dare they fly up alone and get beaten."
"If you don't get beaten by me now, you will lose your life later."
…
Feng Xuan gathered the girl behind him, put him and Ling Ri together, and cursed: "You gang leader cherishes his life so much that he let his disciple come out to block the sword and die."
You Li didn't take it seriously, "She's not a disciple, she's just my plaything. The Taoist priest is a monk, but he also likes to play tricks and deceive me, hiding this shocking killing move."
The two ridiculed and cursed each other, but did not dare to take action.
Feng Xuan knew that he had failed to succeed with the Jinsu Fuyao Sword just now, and the opponent would definitely be on guard. He had just been promoted recently, and if he got into a protracted battle, Youli might find a flaw and defeat him.
You Li still has lingering fears at this moment. Tianyu Guan is indeed a first-class sect with many methods. No one knows how many other methods Feng Xuan has hidden.
Both sides were afraid of each other and were neither willing to give up and leave, nor dare they continue the fight.
Fortunately, Tianhai Lake is now ruled by the Shanhe Gang.
"I don't know how long Master Feng Xuan can spend with me. A dozen Xuanjing monks under my command are all over the mountains and plains arresting Tianyu Temple monks. I am not in a hurry."
"Gang Leader You, please understand that the monks from our sect will come to support you soon, along with the secretary of Tianfu Temple. If you cross the line and stir up a dispute, aren't you afraid that Tianfu will get rid of you? Who is more anxious? I miss you. I know it in my heart.”
"Report!"
You Lai turned his head and saw that it was the Shanhe Gang, and said angrily: "I told you not to come over, and you still dare to resist the order? You didn't see me greeting the guests."
The gang members were forced by You Li's momentum, their bodies shook like sieves, and they spoke out bravely, "Gang leader, more than half of the team we sent to besiege Ling Qing has been destroyed, and four commanders are dead."
"What! A bunch of losers!" You Li couldn't believe his ears. More than a dozen Xuanjing monks led a siege and couldn't defeat a monk of the same level.
Taoist Feng Xuan was greatly relieved when he heard that Ling Qing was fine, "Haha, Gang Leader You is not allowed to be anxious. If my nephew Ling Qing didn't have such abilities, you wouldn't have spent such a battle to surround and kill him."
"Hmph! No matter how powerful he is, he will die here today."
"No matter what the cost?"
"Whatever it takes!"
Taoist Fengxuan stroked his beard, and his mood became more and more stable. He was not in a hurry, and said, "Have you really thought about it, Gang Leader You? There are only more than fifty disciples in my Tianyu Temple who have come here, and the loss of Xuanjing plus Lingqing is not enough." Five, it seems that you have already lost four profound realms. If you continue to fight, you will surely suffer more losses. Tianyu Temple has been passed down to this day, and there are indispensable genius disciples in the sect. After they have fallen, we will just train another group. Does Shanhe Gang have any? Such a background? If no matter what the cost, how long can the Shanhe Gang survive?"
Although You Li was angry, he also knew this truth. The Shanhe Gang was the hard work of him and his adopted brother for many years, and their actions were no longer as gratifying and wanton as they were when they were casual cultivators. It was not for the development of the gang. He did not want to provoke a first-class sect like Tian Yuguan. Now that the plan failed, those so-called allies would definitely bite back and swallow up the power of the Shanhe Gang. Whose flesh would they eat?
You Li suppressed his anger and gritted his teeth and said: "What the Taoist Master said is absolutely true. I will discuss it with Tianyu Guan again when I have the opportunity."
"Let's wait until Gang Leader You has overcome the crisis."
…
There were sporadic fire birds flying over the mountains. You Ziji and others were overjoyed and sped up. Sure enough, they saw a forest in front of them with nests made of branches. There was a thick layer of bird droppings under their feet. They stepped on it. He fell right into it.
"Looking at the scale, there are at least tens of thousands of fire birds living here, which is enough to give the Shanhe Gang a big surprise."
Lingqing was obviously very satisfied with the place he chose.
Lingyue had some doubts, "Senior Brother's idea is good, but the Shanhe Gang has the experience of being besieged by the Fire Birds. How could they enter the forest obediently?"
"When we leave the forest, we have left the Tianhai Lake area. If they don't come to chase us, we will escape directly. The people from the Shanhe Gang will not just watch us leave. No wonder Brother Dao has to wait for the Shanhe Gang to follow behind. , if we go in first and go far, the people from the Shanhe Gang will directly alert the Fire Bird, and we will be finished first." You Ziji told Ling Qing's intention, and then asked: "But I want the Fire Bird It’s not easy to hurt the enemy. They will attack all intruders indiscriminately. What will we do then? I think Brother Dao must have a way to keep us safe."
"Brother You is right. Of course I have ways to avoid danger. Do you know why I insist on choosing a larger flock?"
"Why?" The three curious babies looked at Lingqing eagerly.
"Fire Birds are spiritual beasts after all. They are different from ordinary beasts. In addition to their superior strength, each adult body has the strength of Foundation Establishment. They will also form the prototype of a tribe and help each other. When the number of groups in the tribe reaches a certain level, A very old female leader will be produced. She will have a long life, wisdom, and rich experience. She can possess the profound realm and be respected by the group. As long as we take off the feathers on her body, she can influence the fire within a certain range. The judgment of the spiritual bird. By the way, complete the last link of this red feather fan."
Lingqing's idea was very bold. He was betting that the Shanhe Gang would not dare to take action first.
"Feathers? Isn't it true that only naturally fallen feathers can be used as the main material of the feather fan? Isn't it a bit too arrogant for us to just pick the feathers of the leader of the Fire Bird Clan?"
"Not all the fire feathers collected by the monks every year, and the fire birds don't use their own feathers, there must be some leftover in their nests. Hehe, they are catching up."
While Ling Qing was speaking, everyone from the Shanhe Gang had already arrived. With a glance, they found at least seven or eight Xuanjing cultivators, not counting those hiding in the dark.
"Lingqing, you can't escape, come here and die."
"Comrades, why don't you come over and take our lives yourself? You have so many people and strength, how can we be your opponents?"
"Hmph! Lingqing, what kind of conspiracy are you playing? Unlike the man named Li, I won't be fooled by you."
Lingqing showed a playful expression, half-smiling but not smiling, "If you don't come over, then we'll leave."
After that, he ignored the monks from the Shanhe Gang and left with You Ziji and others, entering the territory of the Fire Bird. However, they did not go in directly, but moved around the edge.
Ling Yue jumped up, trying to step on the tree trunks and fly across the forest to avoid the bird droppings under her feet, but was pulled down by Ling Qing.
"Senior brother?"
"Don't make such big moves, it will alert the fire birds to attack."
Lingyue looked at the filth at her feet, her eyes twitching, and she was hesitant when You Ziji raised his hand and pushed to help her. Life and death situations are not so particular.
The four of them stopped procrastinating and started their journey. Lingyue was like a walking corpse, her eyes had lost their luster, and only when she saw You Ziji, she would explode with shocking murderous intent.
But outside the forest was bustling with people, still hesitating.
"Should we go after him?"
"If we let him go, Gang Leader You won't let us go lightly."
"A bunch of idiots. They are dead and don't know it. I'm going to make some noise and attract the fire birds to come out. They will help us kill Lingqing."
"You don't want your life. We are so close, why don't we finish playing together?"
"How about withdrawing the team and leaving one person here to provoke the Fire Bird."
"What a great idea, man. I'll give you the credit. You stay here while we leave."
"No, no, no, my cultivation is low, but I can't complete such a difficult task. My cultivation is several times better than mine, so you should go ahead."
"This is my brother's idea. How can I take away your credit? It's your fault no matter what."
Everyone agreed upon hearing this and thought it was reasonable, "You are right. Only if my brother goes will our brothers be convinced."
"This this......"
"Dude, I'll go for you."
"Ah, what a good brother."
"But you have to give me your sister-in-law afterwards."
"roll!"
"Listen to me, everyone, no one wants to take risks. It's just because Ling Qing is so powerful and the lives of the people left behind are in danger. But we can't disobey the gang leader's orders. It's really hard to just wander around outside the forest. Why don't we come together? If you go in, you can be taken care of."
"You've had too much wine, don't you? If they disturb the flock of fire birds, we'll all be dead too!"
"Ling Qing and others are also among them. He is the unofficial future headmaster of Tianyu Guan, and his life is precious. How can he dare to take risks."
"That makes sense."
Gradually, the opinions of the Shanhe Gang began to unify in an alternative way.
"Come on, let's all go together and see what he can do with his little nose."
"Go and go. Whoever doesn't go is the grandson."
After the several commanders finished their quarrel, they began to organize their troops and marched into the mountains and forests.
"Speed up, they're all gone."
"Hey! That silly guy, put down your water and fire sticks. Didn't you hear that boy from Tian Yu Guan just said before he entered, don't make too big a move? You want to trick us to death."
A group of people from the Shanhe Gang entered the mountain forest one after another, and Lingqing and others began to walk deeper into the woods upon seeing this.
