More than one hundred of the disciples hired by the Aquatic Sword Sect, after half a day of hasty march, had left behind countless corpses in the forest. In the end, only half of the remaining practitioners had managed to arrive at the foot of the heart of the mountain!

As for the remaining cultivators, they didn't dare to continue walking forward. They didn't go to the heart of the tree to cause trouble, and instead prepared to return in a hurry. They were afraid that if they continued to stay, sooner or later, they would be completely annihilated by the mysterious group of ancient cultivators that appeared out of nowhere in the quiet forest.

Du Yun City's team was the last to arrive. After all, they were the ones at the very end and the slowest. By the time the other teams had made their way back, they had not reached the foot of the heart of the mountain.

When Du Yun City arrived late with the team members, there was already no one at the foot of the heart of the mountain! This made Du Yun City somewhat suspicious, but his subordinates didn't think that way!

"Brother Du, we've completed the mission now, it's time to go back!" The team of practitioners who were speaking had a somewhat excited expression on their face. They didn't notice the silence in the surrounding forest at all, and instead, thought that there was something odd about it!

Du Yun City looked at the cultivator and silently nodded his head. He turned around and led the group back. However, their speed was not as fast as others had expected. Instead, they continued to move forward at a snail's pace.

"Brother Du, what are you doing?" The people around him frowned as they looked at Du Yun City in shock, "Brother Du, those mysterious cultivators have disappeared without a trace. The others have all left, but why are we still walking so slowly? What are we doing on QQ?"

Du Yuncheng faintly smiled and noncommittally said, "Be careful when you're outside!" The mysterious and elusive people who cultivated the Body Meteor Shower did not disappear! Their speed is extremely fast, and that is their business. If we are to slow down, what can we do? "

The surrounding people all shook their heads as they complained to Du Yun City, "Brother Du! We can't do this, since we've already completed our mission, we should hurry back to the Zither Sound City! Having received the silver early on, drinking wine is the most important thing! "

Du Yuncheng firmly shook his head, his gaze cold. "Things won't be as simple as you think! Didn't you notice? Of all of us, only half of us have reached the foot of the mountain? The rest died on the way, and the people who killed them were the mysterious scriptures that hadn't disappeared yet! "

Du Yun City's unhurried pace made the entire group of cultivators feel that it was somewhat difficult to understand. Du Yun City, on the other hand, was unaffected by the illness, so they continued to slow down their pace and slowly walked towards the Zither Sound City.

The group of low-level cultivators wanted to continue persuading Du Yun City because of this, but after they passed through a small ditch, they all remained silent, lowered their heads, and obediently followed behind Du Yun City, walking slowly.

Because it was only in the small ditch, the small group of cultivators in Du Yun City saw the tens of people who had previously come with them to the Azure Sky Mountain! These people were the same as them; they had all arrived at the foot of the mountain!

However, these people were now all dead on the spot. They were casually abandoned at the edge of the trenches in the forest. Their miserable state caused several low-level cultivators to vomit. They turned their heads, not daring to look at them!

Furthermore, the surrounding situation did not stop there. Du Yun City had brought everyone along as they walked. In the middle of the forest, there were quite a few cultivators that had been killed and abandoned in the forest! Without exception, these people were all people like Du Yun and the rest, people who were recruited by the Water Sword Sect back then. Most of them had already reached the foot of the mountain. They originally wanted to leave in a hurry and return to the Zither Sound City as soon as possible, but now, in the blink of an eye, they had all become corpses lying in the silent wilderness!

Du Yun City suddenly stopped and raised his head to look at the dense forest above him. The dozen or so towering trees with lush branches all around him blocked the light in the sky! The group of cultivators also stopped in their tracks, their faces filled with shock as they looked at Du Yun.

"What's wrong? "Brother Du?" A small group of low-level scriptures walked up and whispered to Du Yuncheng. However, they only saw Du Yuncheng turning around to look at him, lightly shaking his head with a grave expression.

"There's someone here!" Du Yun City frowned, his face paled as he looked around at the quiet and desolate wilderness, "Furthermore, there are quite a few of them, and there are many experts among them! Get everyone to stand back to back in a circle! "

The member was stunned, but he still looked at Du Yun City with a face full of shock. And just as Du Yun City finished speaking, from the branches of the surrounding forest, countless sharp arrows whizzed out, striking out at Du Yun City's group with lightning speed!

Du Yun City was overwhelmed with shock, and then they heard several miserable shrieks. In the blink of an eye, several of the squad members beside him had their bodies pierced by black arrows, and they fell to the ground screaming!

Looking back, Du Yun City realized that after a single round of sword rain, there were less than three people who could stand firmly beside him! Apart from him and the team member who had just spoken, the rest of the team members had all been hit by arrows and fell to the ground.

Du Yuncheng felt a chill in his heart, and his body stiffened on the spot. His right hand was placed on the hilt of the long saber at his waist, but he did not dare to lightly pull out the sharp longblade at his waist! Beside him on the grass, his team of ten or so members were currently making waves of low and miserable wails one after another.

However, Du Yun City had no time to think about other things at the moment. His entire mind was focused on the few cultivators that had walked out from the forest on the opposite side!

"Who are you?" Du Yun City secretly took in a few deep breaths as he gloomily looked at the few people that had appeared. Following that, Du Yun City's eyes flickered and his eyebrows knitted together. His legs couldn't help but tremble slightly!

He could see that the five or six people facing him were all men and women, and each one of them had quite a high cultivation base! He had even seen a few of the 5th meridian stage super cultivators that he could not see through!

Mu Xinshu, Lu YunZhou, and the others walked out of the forest and stood across from Du Yun City. Lu Yunzhou's tone was very gentle, "Don't be afraid! We just want to ask you a few questions! "I have no other intentions!"

"Who are you?" Du Yuncheng tightly gripped the hilt of the longblade hanging on his waist, and once again spoke in a low voice. His gaze was firm, as if he wanted to know the identities of the few cultivators on the other side!

Lu Yunzhou shrugged, looked at Mu Xinshu and the others, smiled, and lightly said to Du Yuncheng, "It seems like you want to know who we are! This is very simple. We were watching when your group passed through the Azure Sky Mountain! "
