After hearing this, Yue Die was also very confused, and even felt a faint fear rising from her heart. However, having Xiao He by her side always made her feel more at ease. She calmed down and observed the four people carefully, and said: "However, from the tattoos on the bodies of these four people, it can be seen that they are indeed from Tianlang City."...
Xiao He nodded, then raised his head and looked around. He didn't see anything strange for a long time. So, he took Yuedie back to the main hall and entered the ear door on the other side. The furnishings here are the same as those in the side hall just now. The only difference is that there is a huge hole at the top of the side hall, which was obviously made by someone using magic power.
"Judging from the traces, this hole should have been formed not long ago. It seems that someone escaped from here!" Xiao He said, looking at the big hole in the wall in front of him.
"I don't know what kind of material this square brick is made of. The cultivator hit it with all his strength, leaving only such a big hole!" Yue Die couldn't help but sigh.
"I seem to have an idea in my mind." Xiao He smiled and asked Yuedie to use the method of divine concealment to conceal his aura and pass through the hole silently.
After passing through the hole, the first thing that caught their eyes was an underground river with a tinkling sound. It seems that the monsters they encountered passed through the cave and returned to the ground along this underground river, but they didn't know which direction they went.
Without thinking much, Xiao He and Yue Die continued to hide their auras and moved forward along the underground river. After walking not far, I heard a man and a woman talking in front of me.
"Brother Quan, one day, we can recover from our injuries and return to the ground." A rather charming girl.
"Yes! I hope those stupid guys behind won't find this place! Fortunately, I had the foresight to tell my adoptive father that in order to prevent anyone from discovering our whereabouts, they would leave a few people from the Seventeenth Realm behind!" said a man.
"Brother Quan, if we can succeed this time, your strength will improve by leaps and bounds. Then no one will be able to embarrass us!" The charming female voice said proudly, her words revealing her longing for the future.
"Qingmei, don't worry. When I enter the Ancient God's Tomb and get the top-quality immortal weapon, I will definitely let you join me and share the bliss!" said a middle-aged man.
"Really? Brother Quan, I'm afraid you will forget me by then." The woman said pretending to be delicate.
The middle-aged man hurriedly explained: "How could it be? If it weren't for your poison, how could I have killed those four old guys so easily, but I still got hit in the palm, what a bad luck!"
After hearing this, the woman said very happily: "This Heart-locking Gu has been passed down from generation to generation in our family. It is naturally extremely powerful and can kill immortal cultivators without being noticed. But Brother Quan, if it weren't for these guys from Tianlang City who have been fighting against us for hundreds of years, If you get used to coming and drinking all of a sudden, it’s really hard for them to fall into the trap!”
The man continued: "I have been working hard for hundreds of years just to gain their trust so that I can bewitch a few of them all the time. Today I finally got what I wanted!"
The woman smiled and echoed: "If this heart-locking Gu wasn't so strange, it would have to be taken daily for ten years to have such a miraculous effect. We would have got our wish long ago!"
The man smiled fondly and said, "Silly woman, Heart-locking Gu is our trump card. How can we use it without waiting for Beidou Ling to show up?"
"Haha!" Xiao He on the side couldn't help but laughed out loud after hearing this.
"Who is it?" The man was shocked when he heard the laughter. He stood up very alertly. When he saw Xiao He and Yue Die suddenly appeared, he took a few steps back, looked at Xiao He, and asked again: "When are you going to do this?" Come!"
Xiao He smiled and said: "Always there!"
In fact, Xiao He heard the conversation between the two and got a rough idea of what happened. The man in front of him must be from Tianlang City. He is just a lowly person. He has been poisoning several people in Tianlang City who were preparing to enter Tongtian Fortress for ten consecutive years, and finally got them poisoned. He must have planned to kill other people with poison after getting the Beidou Order and just sit back and enjoy the results. What he didn't expect was how dangerous the Ancient God Tomb was. Immortal weapons were definitely not easy to obtain. His own cultivation level was not high, so just getting a token was far from enough.
What Xiao He didn't expect was that the priests of Tianlang City had long deduced that there would be changes in the desert. In order to obtain the Beidou Order, he brought the artifacts from the Ancient God Tomb back to the divine realm.
This time they specially selected four cultivators who were at the bottleneck of the Nineteenth Realm to lead the team. They planned to have a few people break through the realm in Tongtian Fortress. After all, the remaining people in the main city had not received any message from the Beidou Order, so this could ensure They were infallible when they entered the ancient tomb to snatch the immortal weapons. As for the man in front of him, he did have a low status in Tianlang City, and everyone looked down upon him, so he neglected to take precautions.
In order to gain the opportunity to enter Tongtian Fortress, he did not hesitate to recognize one of the immortal cultivators as his adoptive father. And his adoptive father was really worthy of him and gave him the last spot so that he could be used as a scapegoat when necessary. It was also his adoptive father who discovered his behavior at the critical moment. He was seriously injured by the palm he struck before he died.
And that woman is the man's Taoist companion. She entered here as a casual cultivator, and she has gone through many hardships. Her feelings for him are indeed sincere. The heart-locking voodoo is a secret technique inherited from his family, which can instantly release voodoo insects and eat up the heart. Although this method is fierce, it requires continuous poisoning to let the poison blend into the bone and blood bit by bit. The higher the cultivation level of the person who is poisoned, the longer it takes.
Seeing the man's careful planning only to be destroyed by himself, Xiao He shook his head repeatedly.
The man looked at Xiao He, knowing he was outmatched but still unwilling to accept it, and asked angrily: "What do you mean?"
Xiao He looked at the man, his eyes full of teasing, and said: "Call you stupid, you have the patience to lay out such a big picture. Call you smart, but you naively think that getting the Beidou Order is equivalent to getting an immortal weapon. I really don't know what to do. How to evaluate you."
"Stop talking nonsense, what do you mean!" the man asked again angrily.
"Give me the Beidou Order, and I will spare the lives of you and your wife." Xiao He said.
Hearing this, the man took out the Beidou Ling, held it tightly in his hand, and shouted at Xiao He, "This makes me swear to the death!"
Xiao He sighed, suddenly widened his eyes, and shouted: "Then you die!" After saying that, he thrust out the Nixian Sword, and the God-killing Formation instantly penetrated the man's chest. Looking at the man again, he had been injured by a twenty-level master, and before he could recover from his serious injuries, he was hit by a sword from Xiao He, whose cultivation level was higher than his own. There was a huge bloody hole in his chest that was shocking, and he died before he even struggled.
Everything happened so fast before his eyes that even his Qingmei had no time to react. Looking at the man dying next to her, the woman let out a heartbreaking scream.
"Ah!" After saying that, the woman made a hand gesture with her fingers. In an instant, a big snake pounced on Xiao He, just like the one described by You Yue's father. It's a pity that this woman's cultivation level is even lower than that of her man. Xiao He struck another sword, and the big snake was also killed by Xiao He.
At this moment, the woman was slumped on the ground, her eyes showing a look of weakness and despair.
Xiao He felt a little moved by this situation. If it weren't for the Beidou Order, he really wouldn't want to do this thing where the mantis stalks the cicada and the oriole follows behind. But in such a continent, survival is the only rule, what can he do?
"Let's go." Xiao He took the Beidou Ling back into his hand and said to the woman.
The woman looked up at Xiao He with a fierce look in her eyes, without any gratitude, and asked, "What's your name?"
"My name is Xiao He." Xiao He replied calmly.
"If you don't kill me, I won't be grateful to you. Remember, if you die in God's Realm one day, you must have been poisoned by my bone-corrosive and heart-burning poison!" The woman said viciously again.
Xiao He didn't want to pay attention to her, turned around and left. Yuedie suddenly attacked, and a pink ribbon flew out at lightning speed and instantly wrapped around the woman's neck. As soon as Yuedie exerted her strength, the woman immediately died and lay beside her man. Next to the two corpses, ribbons were floating in the air, and pink butterflies were flying in the wind around the corpses.
"Have you not learned to put away your compassion yet?" Yuedie asked, standing next to Xiao He.
Gently walking past Xiao He, Yue Die leaned over the woman to check, and finally found a medicine bottle and threw it at Xiao He, saying, "If my guess is correct, this is the antidote for that big snake!"
Xiao He smiled bitterly, what Yuedie said was reasonable, how could he not understand, so he didn't say much. Just holding the medicine bottle in his hand, Xiao He sighed: "The body structure of the indigenous people is also strange. With such snake venom, if a cultivator below the eighteenth level is bitten, there is almost no chance of survival."
"It's just the old man
He said he was following the team when he got lost..." Yuedie asked hesitantly.
Xiao He thought for a moment and replied, "I'm afraid it was an illusion he had when he was extremely dizzy!"
"Maybe so!" Yuedie sighed.
Soon, the two of them were walking along the underground river, and soon returned to the surface, and then returned to the small town in the vast sea filled with yellow sand. It was only when the two of them returned to the town that they realized what kind of chaotic scene the town was in at the moment.
All the seventeenth-level immortal cultivators in Tianlang City entered the desert as follow-up troops, but they did not find any marks left by the previous troops, nor did they find the ruins of the ancient city where the Beidou Order appeared in the desert. But inadvertently, they discovered this aboriginal town located on the edge of the desert.
They were not sure whether the disappearance of the cultivators from Sirius City in the desert was related to the small town, but there was no need for a reason for the war between the aborigines and the people in the main city.
The leader was wrapped in a black robe, with only his head exposed. The tattoos of Sirius City were exposed on the white skin on the back of his neck. He led the four people into the desert and stood at the corner of the street. The dead people had already broken into the village and were massacring the residents here indiscriminately. At first, they killed very slowly and wanted to know who was going first. However, after torture, it was discovered that the people in the town seemed to be unaware, and a real massacre began.
The residents here do not have sharp weapons like the crossbows of the gods. Due to the lack of materials, it is difficult for them to take advantage of the indigenous people who are good at making weapons. He only relied on his innate physical strength and familiarity with the terrain to fight these people from Tianlang City. However, the strength gap between them and the immortal cultivators is still too huge.
"Bourne, what are you looking at?" A man from Tianlang City said, looking back at the man in black robe who had been standing aside to watch the battle.
"It's not about watching, it's about appreciating. I like to witness the pain of others." After saying this, Bourne raised his right arm, revealing his white arm from the dark sleeves. He opened his five fingers and waved forward vigorously, and five thunderbolts were instantly emitted. Immediately afterwards, five houses in front of him were attacked by thunder and fire and turned into ruins.
He smiled slightly and seemed satisfied with his work. Looking at his four companions in front of him, he whispered: "Kill as much as you like!"
The indigenous people in the town, regardless of gender, old or young, died tragically one after another under the massacre of these people.
