Chapter 46 [A show of force]
The car drove over a swaying bridge, which made people a little panicked. After all, the bridge seemed unreliable, but fortunately, we finally reached the other side successfully.
At this time, there were dozens of cars parked in a rather wide square, including more than ten minibuses, and the others were cars and SUVs.
The teams responsible for participating in this challenge wore uniforms of different colors and looked like a gaming team.
Especially the Yin family's team, they are simply show-offs. Dressed in ancient palace attire, they just feel like a group of eunuchs.
Although other teams are better, they always feel like they are flashy.
Relatively speaking, the Xu Group does not have such flashy uniforms, and Xu Xuan knew it at the last moment and had no time to design it. However, he designed a batch of name badges, which everyone just needs to pin on their chest. They are blue and white, with Xu's The four words "Group" are concise and elegant, but also clear at a glance.
After Ge Xian and others hung up their badges, as the captain, he naturally walked at the front, and then came to the other eleven teams. The Xu Group's position happened to be in the middle, and all kinds of eyes suddenly came from both sides. Flying towards me, it was like the light of a sword or the shadow of a sword.
On one side of this square is the entrance to this pass. After entering, a confrontation will begin. Of course, on the surface, people cannot be killed, but everything has accidents.
Ge Xian felt that people like him were like gladiators in ancient Rome, providing wonderful killing feasts for the rich and powerful, and receiving money and fame.
Yin Zhengtian arrived late and was accompanied by dozens of provincial and Xu family members. It was natural for him to make the speech before the challenge began.
Today, he is still wearing a handsome and close-fitting custom-made military uniform. Fortunately, the temperature here has dropped a lot compared to the other side of the bridge, only about 20 degrees, which seems very cool. Wearing a military uniform at this time is appropriate.
"Everyone, in Shendu, challenge matches are usually conducted in the form of a battle royale, and they are brutally eliminated. This is also the promotion of our clan's martial spirit. This time I was invited by the Cangluo Xu family to come to the Xijiang Provincial Government. To meet everyone, in addition to discussing cooperation and recruiting members, I also want to see if the martial spirit here is still there, so I have temporarily changed the challenge method. In order to show fairness, in addition to my two teams, the Yin family and the Xu family, there are Ten teams supported by other aristocratic families will participate in this challenge together. We hope that the participating martial arts heroes and folk masters can express themselves on this platform without fear of bloodshed. This time our Yin family has specially purchased a huge amount of insurance for all contestants. No need to Worry about the future." Yin Zhengtian's words made almost all the players below curse in their hearts. If he was not the spokesperson of the Yin family, he would never be able to leave Zuifeng Mountain.
Ge Xian felt that Yin Zhengzhen felt too good about himself. Backed by the big tree, the Yin family, a family of imperial merchants, he felt that he could be above all living beings. The life of a person participating in the challenge was nothing more than an insurance amount to him. .
Sure enough, compared to a cultivator's sense of superiority towards mortals, his arrogant attitude of treating humans as ants is more classy. Unfortunately, he is only a mortal after all.
After Yin Zhengtian spoke, the twelve teams did not pay much attention to others. After all, in front of Yin Zhengtian, everyone else was just a foil.
Soon, all the nonsense ended, and Ge Xian and others slowly walked towards the entrance of the pass under the gaze of everyone.
He noticed a look without kindness, so he looked up and found that it was Yin Zhengtian who was looking at him with a smile but not a smile, and whispered something to him. With Ge Xian's extraordinary ear, he naturally heard it. What he said is: Grandson, anyone who dares to offend me will never come out alive.
Ge Xian felt a bit naughty, and his spiritual power moved to his throat, and he made a voice that only Yin Zhengtian could hear: "Young child of the Yin family, when I come out, I will kill you!"
Yin Zhengtian's face suddenly turned pale and he could hardly control himself. Seeing that he looked very uncomfortable, the people around him turned into idiots and tried to give him a hand, but he pushed him away with one hand.
He found that the people around him did not hear these words, but he did hear them. He walked up to a man wearing a bamboo hat and asked, "Taoist Priest, did you hear that kid's arrogance just now?"
"No..." the person replied, his voice somewhat familiar.
"But I heard it..." Yin Zhengtian whispered angrily.
"He used the methods of a cultivator, and he just wanted you to hear it alone." The man continued to reply.
"Taoist Master, are you really sure you can deal with him?" Yin Zhengtian asked with some uncertainty.
The man in the bamboo hat smiled mysteriously: "Otherwise, what would I be doing here? This person is the one I must kill."
"That's good. I changed the plan specifically for the Taoist Priest and offended some Xijiang people. The Xu family asked me for help and the Yin family didn't dare to fall out with me. But after all, this place is not as good as the Shendu. I hope the Taoist Priest can fulfill his promise. Once After completing the task, you must teach me the method of cultivating Taoism and make me a cultivator." Yin Zhengtian said innocently.
The man in the bamboo hat smiled and said: "Of course, Pindao also wants to accept a direct disciple."
Yin Zhengtian also laughed immediately, both of them had their own hidden agendas.
It was a little cold at the entrance, and frost could even be seen, and Ge Xian felt the familiar spiritual consciousness again.
"It seems that there is a guardian here, but I don't know whether this guardian is an enemy or a friend." Ge Xian speculated and felt that this guardian could not be a member of the Yin family, otherwise he would have dealt with him directly , then there is no need for a battle royale.
Each team entered the corridor one after another, and a deep cold breath began to descend. It seems that the climate in the pass here is similar to winter. This is also artificially created. No wonder the temperature here is much lower than that on the other side.
As the teams walked silently through the tunnel, a strange atmosphere began to spread between the teams.
"Captain, something is wrong. These people seem to be gradually surrounding us." Yi Jian Feixian reminded Ge Xian.
Ge Xian whispered back: "It seems that there will be a bloody battle from the beginning. In this case, you will use me as the arrow later. Shu Lao and Sister Ziyi will protect the team at the end. Yi Jian Feixian and Penglai Fairy are in the middle, waiting for an opportunity to attack. Once you encounter a siege, return to the team immediately. Remember, our primary goal at the moment is to break through, don't be reluctant to fight, put distance between us and these teams, and ensure that everyone survives."
It was very difficult to survive the siege of nearly ten teams. Shu Lao, Yijian Feixian and Penglai Fairy all felt heavy pressure, but Ge Xian's previous performance impressed them, so they still had the mentality to give it a try. , If it really doesn’t work, we can only break up the team and seek self-protection. Everyone has the ability to save their lives to some extent, so there is no need to really fight.
However, Ziyi still seemed to have a lot of trust in Ge Xian and didn't care at all whether he could fulfill his promise. Maybe this woman really had blind confidence in Ge Xian.
The tunnel finally reached the end, and the light shone in, making it difficult to open one's eyes. This was also the time when the murderous intent was at its peak.
The first to take action were Ge Xian and the other four members of Xu's team. As a strong palm wind rose from the ground, with the power of flying sand and rocks, as many as hundreds of palm shadows faced those who were slowly surrounding them. The team members directly knocked them away, and the palm power penetrated them, causing them to be seriously injured in an instant. About ten people fell down, and the remaining people immediately dispersed in surprise, as if they saw the god of plague. generally.
Shu Lao and others behind him saw the true strength of Ge Xian. He severely injured more than ten people with one attack. It was simply indescribable. It was a completely crushing level of strength.
"Pay attention to defense!" Ge Xian reminded, and Shu Lao responded. Immediately, the skill started to move, the true energy spread, forming a dense array of meridians in the body, and an invisible wall of energy appeared behind him and to the left and right, making Those martial arts masters who used hidden weapons and close attacks suddenly found that they had knocked down a wall and could not break through it.
Ziyi, who was next to him, carried his shield behind his back. No matter what kind of weapons or hidden weapons they were, they would be bounced away if they landed on the shield. He didn't know what kind of material this shield was made of.
At the same time, the short sword in her hand was filled with true energy, and a three-inch sword glow was produced. When it danced left and right, it was chopped into pieces. The opponent's weapon was often broken at a touch. It was like a magic weapon in hand, and I could conquer the world. have.
Both of them showed amazing performances. Yi Jian Feixian and Penglai Fairy, who were in the middle of the team, also became more confident and began to take the initiative to attack those warriors who were alone or slightly injured. The elusiveness of the two often caused the opponent to be hit before they could react. Once they were surrounded, the two quickly used their superb body skills to escape in hiding and returned to the team, almost invincible.
From the time Ge Xian opened the mountain with his palm to the entire team breaking through the blockade of other teams under his cover, it only took a short minute. However, during this period, more than fifty martial arts masters were knocked down by one of their teams. In Baluo, half of the people fell down, and most of them were unable to fight anymore, but no one's life was in danger, at most they were only seriously injured.
They rushed out all the way, and the remaining people were no longer able to stop them. Even the main formation of the Yin family was the hardest hit and was unable to organize an effective counterattack and resistance. They could only watch helplessly as Ge Xian and his party were five The man rushed out of the tunnel unscathed and then disappeared into the vast snow forest.
On the big screen of the simultaneous live broadcast, in the live broadcast hall in the square, there was silence at the moment. All the families who sent out teams this time had ugly expressions, but the most ugly one was undoubtedly the Yin family.
Yin Zhengtian never expected that his team would be so weak. Although these people were substitutes brought by Shendu, they should also be the strongest combat force in a place like Xijiang. However, because they underestimated the enemy or their opponents were too abrupt and overbearing, they suddenly became The best opportunity to encircle and kill was lost.
In addition, there are currently more than 20 people left in all teams, and nearly half of them are injured. It is almost impossible to deal with the vigorous Xu Group team.
At this moment, Xu Xuan couldn't help but raise the goblet in his hand and toast to the surrounding provincial families. Although the other people were bitter, they all drank. It has to be said that the Xu family from the small county of Cangluo has completely made a name for themselves in the provincial government. With the reputation gained, Xu Xuan even felt that even if they did not get involved with the Yin family's giant ship this time, the Xu family could gain a firm foothold in Xijiang Provincial Government.
On the big screen, the names of all warriors who had lost their fighting power and could only exit the pass turned gray and showed that they were offline.
At this time, of the twelve teams, only one of the Xu Group's teams was fully staffed, and it was the red team in the best condition. The rest of the teams are either short of people, or even very short of people, and some teams are even wiped out. Even if they still exist, their status is only green, and many people are even purple with low morale.
It is no exaggeration to describe Xu's team with a high morale. The battle cards with the names of Xiaoyaozi, Yijian Feixian, Penglai Fairy, Shulao and Ziyi are so dazzling that it makes people stare at these five names, especially staring at them. Yin Zhengtian, who heard the name Xiaoyaozi, gritted his teeth and broke off a piece of the table in front of him with one hand unable to vent his anger.
However, he then laughed strangely, as if he remembered someone, the person who could give him confidence.
The terrain of the entire pass is like a gourd, called "Calabash Valley". As soon as the tunnel comes out, there is a small valley, and then there is a small trail, and then there is a big valley, and the exit is somewhere in the big valley.
At this time, the five men of Gexian successfully broke through to the small valley. They found that there were no pursuers behind them, and they were relieved.
"Hahaha... It's so happy. It's so happy. This is the first time I'm so happy." Yi Jian Feixian couldn't help but laugh.
Fairy Penglai also pursed her lips and smiled, looked at Ge Xian, and said, "The captain's thunderous palm just now shattered their self-confidence and made them unable to react at all."
"I really admire you, captain. I'm impressed by your strength."
Shu Lao now admires Ge Xian very much. After all, in the several battle royales he has participated in, the beginning is often the bloodiest moment, and his previous team is often beaten to pieces at the beginning. After falling, they were chased by various people, which was terrible to watch. But now, the strength of this team was extremely powerful, especially the leader. Although he was very young, his strength was amazing, which really surprised him.
Zi Yi did not praise Ge Xian as usual at this time. Her ears seemed to be listening to something, and they would turn around. With a stern look on her face, she said: "The pursuers are coming, everyone, please be careful."
This reminder immediately made everyone understand that this was not the time to relax, they were still dancing on the edge of the knife.
Ge Xian glanced at Zi Yi unexpectedly, and was very impressed by the other party's ability to detect the enemy's situation with his extraordinary hearing, which almost matched his spiritual alertness.
At this moment, a few miles away, a team of fifteen people was coming. The aura of these people seemed to be different from those before, which made Ge Xian alert.
"Let's go!" Ge Xian greeted, and everyone else immediately obeyed the order, and soon the team disappeared into the snow.
When the fifteen pursuers arrived, Ge Xian and others had long disappeared. A man wearing a bamboo hat felt it and immediately pointed in a direction, and then these people immediately chased after them.
Compared with ordinary warriors, these people seem to be cold puppets with no expressions. They are tall and muscular, and appear to be powerful. Although they were wearing the uniforms of different teams, judging from their relatively uniform movements, these people should be cooperating together or coming from the same sect themselves.
The leader of the man in a bamboo hat looked a little strange, which made many gentlemen from aristocratic families in the live broadcast hall whisper to each other, but no one could guess his identity.
Although the first half of Hulu Valley looks like a small valley, it is also very vast. It is not a plain with a panoramic view, but full of undulating hilly terrain. At the same time, there are many forked roads. If you don’t have a good sense of direction, you can’t go there. It's easy to get lost.
Fortunately, Ge Xian has spiritual knowledge and can easily know his location and ensure that he does not go wrong. Others only need to follow him.
"Stop!" Ge Xian raised two fingers and stopped. The four people behind him immediately ambush, ready to fight at any time.
Ge Xian narrowed his eyes, and with his spiritual sense, he felt a group of unknown creatures passing by in front of him. He didn't know whether it was a normal migration or coming towards them.
"Judging from the intelligence data obtained, there are usually three types of aggressive ferocious beasts living in Calabash Valley. The first one is called the Silver Bear. It has silver-like hair all over its body and has strong defense and attack power. However, it Its movement speed tends to be slow, and it is not good at dealing with high-altitude attacks." Ziyi recounted a piece of intelligence information obtained from the conference room last night.
Then, she added: "The second type is the snow dragon. It is huge and good at flipping in the snow. Once it gets entangled, it is difficult to escape. Moreover, snow dragons often move in groups, which is very tricky."
"Is there a snow dragon ahead?" Fairy Penglai looked a little scared. After all, the thought of being entangled by a few snow dragons, and then being cut into pieces and eaten, gave people a chilling feeling.
"Is the last kind of monster called snow ants?" Yi Jian Feixian couldn't help but ask.
Ziyi nodded and said: "Snow ants have stronger cooperation and are better than snow dragons. Their individual harm is very limited, but once the number exceeds five hundred, they are quite dangerous."
Ge Xian turned around at this time and said with a wry smile: "It seems that there are more than five hundred, I'm afraid there are thousands."
"What's going on? Why are there so many? The information said that there are only three to four hundred snow ants in Hulu Valley these years." Shulao said in surprise.
Ge Xian thought of Yin Zhengtian's face, and immediately had the answer, and said: "These monsters are probably much more difficult to deal with than those people just now. We can't fight with them, otherwise it will be us who will suffer. Everyone, try to get to high places and hide yourself." The breath of oneself.”
After saying that, everyone began to climb tall pine trees, hoping that the snow ants would ignore them in the trees when they passed by.
Rustling... was like the sound made by the sofa, but everyone understood that it was the sound of snow ants grinding their teeth. When thousands of snow ants appeared in everyone's sight, people were surprised. It turned out that these snow ants were not only Not only ordinary individuals, but also a queen ant-level existence, with a body length of several meters, and all kinds of senses are extremely developed.
