Kunhuang Sect.
The man with blue-gold feathers growing out of his eyes was sitting on the roof of the main hall of the Kunhuang Sect, looking at the distant sky with a smile on his face.
What was reflected in his eyes was not the blue sky and white clouds, but the sandstorm filling the sky and the earth.
Most of the entire desert has been shrouded in sandstorms. Maybe it's not appropriate to call it a sandstorm, because yellow sand only accounts for half of the storm, and the other half is countless flying ants.
With their huge numbers, these tiny creatures set off strong winds in the desert, and then rolled up the yellow sand, forming an overwhelming sandstorm.
As for the ground, there are no living creatures except sand ants. All traces of life of ordinary beasts were wiped away. The monsters either escaped from the desert or became the food of sand ants. Even the plants disappeared.
In the sandstorm, there are dark shadows that appear and disappear from time to time. They are individuals that have undergone some kind of mutation among the sand ants. They are much larger than ordinary sand ants, and they have also developed different magical powers.
Looking around, except for the remaining small area that is being invaded by sand ants, only at the mountain gate of Kunhuang Sect in the desert can one still see a clear sky above his head.
The man's leisurely posture looking at the sky seems to be admiring his own masterpiece, but the deep meaning in his smile shows that this is not the case.
He was watching, or waiting for something.
Suddenly, a cold light appeared in his eyes.
The moment the cold light appeared, the man's fingertips moved.
choke!
The sound of gold and iron clashing echoed across the sky.
Under the sky, an autumn sword struck a bright blue feather.
At the intersection of the long sword and the feather, a circle of transparent ripples instantly spread out, reaching thousands of miles away. Wherever they passed, the sandstorm formed by the flying ants was silently annihilated, and the heaven and earth became pure.
The man laughed loudly, flew up, stood in the air opposite the long sword, and said: "I haven't seen you for a thousand years, Elder Wu, you are still in such good spirits."
A figure slowly emerged from behind the long sword. This man has white hair and a childlike face, with piercing eyes as sharp as a sword.
"Chu Cang, it is indeed you!" Elder Wu looked directly at the man and said coldly.
Beast King Chu Cang replied with an undiminished smile: "Oh? Did you already have a guess? Or is it that the Wufeng Sword Sect guessed that it was me, so they sent you here specially?"
Elder Wu snorted heavily and said: "You don't need to know. Today, you can either lead your men to leave this place, or you can pay back all the life debts you owed in the past!"
Chu Cang seemed to be amused and kept laughing: "Elder Wu, Elder Wu, even if the 'Devil-Slaying Sword' you cultivate can restrain me innately, are you too confident?"
At this point, his laughter gradually stopped and he said in a mocking tone: "If you are really so capable, how could you let me escape unscathed in the first place?"
Elder Wu was unmoved, but his eyes became sharper and said: "Stop talking nonsense, since you want to die, I will help you!"
Qiu Shui's long sword revealed its edge, and the feathers that had previously resisted the sword's blow suddenly split into two halves. Elder Wu held the hilt of the sword and was about to launch the next attack, but heard Chu Cang say: "Wait a minute."
Elder Wu paused.
Chu Cang: "Although I really want to learn about your progress in swordsmanship, I have an important responsibility, so I can only use another method to attack."
He lowered his eyes and motioned to Elder Wu to look down: "Look over there."
Elder Wu glanced down and was stunned.
In an open space in the Kunhuang Sect's mountain gate, hundreds of Kunhuang Sect disciples gathered at some unknown time. These disciples knelt on their knees with their heads lowered. On the skin of the back of their necks exposed outside their collars, there was a green-blue mark with a feather pattern.
Chu Cang said leisurely: "You should know this magical power of mine, right? The life and death of these people can be determined by my thoughts. If you take action here once, I will kill ten of them."
After the words fell, no movement was seen from him. Suddenly, the marks on the necks of ten of those disciples flashed with light. The next moment, the bodies of these ten people seemed to have lost their support, and they fell to the side softly. There was no sound.
"This is what you did to me just now."
Chu Cang smiled jokingly.
Elder Wu’s eyes were about to burst: “You!!!”
The long sword in his hand was pointed directly at the center of Chu Cang's eyebrows. Cold stars gathered at the tip of the sword, and murderous intent and anger were ready to pour out.
Chu Cang was not afraid and said with a smile: "The one who betrayed your human race is just the leader of this sect. These disciples under his sect are all innocent. Your Wufeng Sword Sect claims to be upright and chivalrous. How can you bear to kill him?" them?"
Elder Wu's chest rose and fell rapidly, and he was so angry that even the hand holding the sword was trembling slightly. He lowered his head and stared at the Kunhuang Sect disciples who were kneeling and bowing their heads. Although he couldn't see their faces clearly, he could see a kind of despair and numbness in their figures.
He took a deep breath and lowered the sword bit by bit. However, suddenly, he thought of something and pointed the sword at Chu Cang again.
"It will take more than a few days to breed Falling Feather Talismans to so many people... You already knew that it would be my Wufeng Sword Sect who came to attack you?!"
Elder Wu glared at Chu Cang and asked, "Who told you!"
Chu Cang smiled but did not answer, and at the same time glanced around.
While the two were talking, the Qingming area that had been swept away by transparent ripples was backfilled by sand ants further away, and it was almost back to its original state at this moment.
Seeing this, Chu Cang was in a better mood and said in a brisk voice: "Elder Wu, it might be better if you bring more people here next time. But the premise is that you can go back this time."
A pair of gorgeous wings with cyan and blue as the main colors suddenly spread out behind him. As soon as he flapped his wings, several hurricanes suddenly appeared. The violent airflow was mixed with traces of colorful light, just like the wind had color.
Hurricanes hit Elder Wu from all directions. Elder Wu swiped his long sword. It was a simple and unsophisticated movement, but it seemed to contain the wisdom of heaven and earth, and it destroyed all the hurricanes in an instant.
Chu Cang laughed loudly: "You killed ten more!"
Elder Wu was horrified and shocked, but it was too late. Among the Kunhuang Sect disciples kneeling below, ten more people lost their lives.
"You bastard!"
Elder Wu roared fiercely, and Chu Cang laughed even more wildly. He flashed his wings again, and a larger hurricane appeared.
But this time, Elder Wu did not dare to use offense instead of defense. He only dared to surround his body with sword energy to block the hurricane, and at the same time he had the tendency to evacuate.
The hurricane touched the sword energy, and although it was eliminated by the sword energy, part of the colorful light penetrated the sword energy, and attached to the long sword body like gangrene attached to the bone.
Elder Wu's face turned dark and he firmly decided to retreat temporarily. However, the swordsmanship he practiced was obviously weak in escaping compared to attacking. It would be difficult to get out of the predicament for a while, not to mention that Chu Cang had not yet used his full strength.
Seeing another attack coming, Elder Wu's mind quickly changed, thinking about how to leave this place without attacking back. The magic weapon is tainted by the colored light, and if you delay it any longer, it will only become more detrimental to you.
Chu Cang watched leisurely. Although he said cruel words before him, there was still lingering fear in the depths of his eyes. Perhaps he was worried that he would corner the other party, so he did not actually kill him for a long time.
At this moment, he seemed to sense something, his expression changed, and he looked up at the sky.
A scorching sun was hanging high, and the sunlight was extremely dazzling, even making him, the Beast King, dizzy for a moment.
Soon enough, when Chu Cang was in a trance, a three-legged monster bird made of golden flames rushed out of the sandstorm, burned a passage under the hurricane, and snatched away Elder Wu.
When Chu Cang came back to his senses, he only saw the golden flame tail disappearing into the yellow sand in the sky.
He let out a soft hum and said: "Wu Shao..."
…
Elder Wu stood on the back of the three-legged demon bird that seemed to be a physical entity. He cupped his hands to the red-haired and golden-eyed woman in front of him and said, "Thank you very much, Chief Wu, for your generous action."
Wu Shao said: "Elder Wu, there is no need to say thank you. Even if I don't take action, you can get away."
Elder Wu: "But that will inevitably lead to the sacrifice of more Kunhuang Sect disciples."
Wu Shao didn't answer.
Elder Wu sighed deeply and looked at his sword with a solemn expression.
Wu Shao suddenly said: "For Chu Cang, what is Elder Wu's next plan?"
Elder Wu said helplessly: "We can only report it to the leader first. Alas, we originally planned to kill him by surprise. Even if we couldn't take his life, we still wanted to force him away from the Kunhuang Sect. Who would have expected that he would know the news in advance and make a decision?" We have made such crazy preparations. The problem is, the pressure on our sect from the beast tide is also huge now, I wonder if we can still send out excess high-end combat power."
Wu Shao: "Can you consider joining forces with Taichu Guan?"
"Absolutely not!"
Elder Wu refused firmly. He frowned, and there was deep disgust in his eyes.
"Those people from Taichu Guan will never care about the lives of Kunhuang Sect disciples. They have always had this kind of virtue!"
