344 Chapter 344-sinking into the mud
commander Zuo is right, ” Hai Lin said. let’s rest. We’ll start tomorrow morning. His heart ached for his subordinates, and he was afraid that they would encounter danger.
Yunxiao nodded slightly, then sat down cross-legged and began to cultivate.
In the distance, Gu Yuesheng seemed to have calmed down. Summoning the eighth-rank monster beast had consumed too much of his soul power. In addition, his qi and blood had attacked his heart. At this moment, his entire person was extremely weak.
He took out a pill and swallowed it. Soon, his face was red, and he seemed to be in high spirits.
“Your judgment of them is really accurate. They really didn’t enter the forest!”
Gu Yuesheng seemed to be praising situ Heng. Then, a ferocious expression appeared on his face as he said,”It’s a good thing I’ve set up a second trap here. At first, he thought that those spirit devouring rats were enough. He didn’t expect them to pass two rounds in a row! I don’t believe that they’ll have such good luck in the third stage!”
Standing behind him, situ Heng did not comment. Instead, he revealed a look of slight disdain. Initially, he had been full of admiration for Chu li. Now, he was gradually looking down on him. However, he only dared to do so behind his back. He still had to be respectful in front of him.
“In the sky above that open space, other than setting up the Starlight guiding formation with an invisibility talisman, I’ve also set up a Starlight guiding formation. There were also 36 space stones and a sleeping magma beast buried in the ground. As long as we can wake up the magma beast, this place will soon become a swamp of lava under the effect of the spatial stone!”
He took out a formation plate and placed it flat on the ground. The formation plate was dotted with a few white dots, and in the middle was a lump of earth.
“Now is the largest area of control. Trash of the rookie mercenary group, all of you should enjoy the firedmud bath! Hahahaha!”
Gu Yuesheng seemed to have seen the struggling expression on the other party’s face. He laughed and quickly used his hands to cast a spell. A series of runes flew from his palms into the entire plate and a ray of light began to rotate.
In the resting caravan, Yunxiao suddenly opened his eyes.
He was the first to sense the fluctuations of the formation. His pupils contracted as he stared at the ground. He instantly jumped up and shouted, ” “Be careful, everyone! There’s a problem underground!”
Everyone was woken up from their meditative state by him one after another. They were all extremely stunned, as if they had not discovered anything.
Zhu Lei also frowned and said,’master Yunxiao, you’re wrong, aren’t you? This is fine, then Yingluo ”
Suddenly, he stopped talking. The ground became extremely loose, and in the blink of an eye, his feet sank in.
Not only him, but the entire caravan, including the Dragon horse and the carriage, also began to sink, as if they had become a swamp!
“There’s indeed a problem!”
Zhu Lei was shocked. He gathered his Zhen Qi and was about to fly up, but he suddenly found that the Zhen Qi that he had just circulated had directly flowed into the earth, as if it had been sucked away.
how did this happen?!
He turned pale with fright and circulated his true Qi again, only to find that it was the same. It was as if there was something in the soil that would absorb the true Qi as soon as it came into contact with it.
Not only him, but everyone else also realized this and became anxious. Many of them had already sunk to their waists. The Dragon horses continued to struggle and neigh, sinking even faster.
“Young master Yun, what should we do?”
Ding Ling ‘er was also frightened. She had also fallen into his lap. So far, Yunxiao was the only one who had escaped this misfortune and was standing in the air.
Yunxiao, on the other hand, looked indifferent as he said, ” “Let’s see.”
Zhu Lei was a little dizzy. what are you still looking at? you’re the only one who hasn’t sunk yet. You just have to pull us out one by one!
In such a critical situation, he did not notice that Yunxiao could actually stand in the air with his martial King cultivation base.
when you circulate your true Qi, will it violently flow out from under your feet, as if it is absorbed by the soil? ” Yunxiao asked.
“Yes, yes, yes!” Hai Lin was overjoyed. as expected of master Yunxiao. You can tell at a glance. How do we crack it? ”
“It’s indeed the clear space Stone.”
the clear space Stone is a mutated earth element, ” Yunxiao said with a frown. it has an endless absorption power from the earth. It’s very difficult to get out of it, and if I were to pull you guys out, as soon as I come into contact with it, your Yuan Qi would be immediately sucked dry. I can’t think of any good ways at the moment.”
Ding Ling ‘er was anxious and said,”even you can’t do anything about this Yingluo.”
Suddenly, yunshang frowned. why is there such a thick fire element in this swamp? it looks like it’s going to burn.
When she said this, everyone also noticed it one after another. They were all panicking, and a few people even sank to their necks.
Not long after, bubbles began to appear on the swamp, emitting a large amount of heat and boiling. The color of the soil began to turn fiery red, and all the martial artists were sweating as if they were being roasted.
young master Yun, it’s so hot! I can’t take it anymore!
Ding Ling ‘er was the first one to cry out. She couldn’t use genuine Qi to resist here. Her Constitution was the most injured. Luo yunshang had a nine yang body, so it was very difficult for the power of fire to hurt her. On the contrary, she did not feel much.
there’s no other way, ” Yunxiao sighed. we can only do this.
He lowered his body and rushed down. Under everyone’s astonished gazes, he jumped into the swamp and sank with them.
Ding Ling ‘er exclaimed,”young master Yun, what are you doing?”
Gu Yuesheng, who was standing in the distance, was suddenly overjoyed. He laughed and said,”Haha, they’ve finally fallen into the trap. The person who had escaped with great difficulty must have gone to save his companions. He would be finished too! With the help of the Earth’s power, the clear space Stone can absorb Yuan Qi endlessly. Even if he were to save people, he would be sucked down, haha!”
Situ Heng’s expression was not as relaxed as before. He frowned and said, Mr. Gu, I think that person jumped down on his own. It doesn’t look like he was trying to save someone.
“Jump down on your own?”
Gu Yuesheng’s eyes bulged and he said sarcastically, ” “Master situ is indeed very smart. Why don’t you try jumping down? It’s very fun.”
Situ Heng snorted coldly. His face darkened and he did not say anything else.
“Alright, we can go over and collect our spoils!”
Gu Yuesheng put away the array disc and was about to go over.
“Let’s just wait! It won’t be too late to go after they’ve been completely roasted by the lava beast.” Situ Heng seemed to have some concerns.
Gu Yuesheng snorted disdainfully,”Hmph, are all the members of the skeleton mercenary Corps as afraid of death as you?” No one can escape from the effect of the clear space Stone!”
He ran forward on his own.
After thinking for a moment, situ Heng also felt that it shouldn’t be a big problem. He followed closely. Behind him, five other figures also rose into the air and followed behind him. It was as if they were five shadows.
“Haha, as expected, they all sank!”
Gu Yuesheng and the other seven people quickly floated above the swamp. They looked coldly at the bubbling red lava below. The hot air was rising, and they could not see anyone at all.
“It’s a pity that I didn’t get to Meet the Expert in the caravan. However, no matter how powerful he is, he will die when he meets me, Gu Yuesheng! Alright, the mission is over. Let’s go back and report.”
Situ Heng said, ” this Tao Wu. Mr. Gu, it’s said that we must bring Hailin back. Even if he’s dead, we need his body!
“Hmph, a corpse?” we’re under the lava, ” Gu Yuesheng said unhappily. and there’s the clear space Stone, so we can’t circulate our vital Qi. Do you think there’ll be a corpse? ”
Situ Heng frowned. He seemed to be in a difficult position as he said,”Before I came out, Lord Yu told me to bring the corpse back no matter what. What should I do? Can you take out those clearing stones? I’ll go down and look for them.”
Gu Yuesheng was impatient and said,”the melting point of the clear space Stone is not high. It is estimated that it will melt away in half a day.” However, by that time, these people would not even have a corpse left. Wasn’t he just a useless young master? Why would they need corpses? We just need to confirm that he’s dead!”
“Yeah, why do you want Hailin’s body? Could it be because of the bloodline power in his body?”
Suddenly, a discordant voice came from the lava.
Everyone was shocked. Their eyes were wide open as they looked down in disbelief.
A small vortex began to appear in the steaming lava, and then it slowly expanded as a figure slowly rose up from it. It was indeed Yunxiao. With a sunny smile on his face, he narrowed his eyes and said, ” “That lady Yu You were talking about, is she trying to refine her bloodline power?”
“?! Who are you?”
The seven of them retreated in shock. Situ Heng’s expression changed drastically. A wave of cold killing intent surged out of his body and locked onto his opponent!
The mission this time was extremely secretive. The higher-ups ‘request was to obtain Hailin’s body. If they could not complete the mission, they had to at least not expose their whereabouts. Now, not only did he not get his body, but his whereabouts were also exposed. Even the mysterious Mr. Yu of the skeleton mercenaries was found out. Then …
He could only kill them all!
Otherwise, if he returned, he would definitely not be able to escape the heavy responsibility!
Mr. Gu’s face darkened and he said coldly, ” “You’re the one who broke through my two levels? How old are you? Which tier is he?”
Judging from the soul power fluctuations coming from the man, he was definitely an Alchemist. However, what shocked him the most was that he couldn’t see the other’s level. He could only see the other’s age, and this person was only 15 years old.
“Two stages?”
Yunxiao pointed down with a smile and said, ” “Does this count as a test?”
Mr. Gu was furious, as if his self-esteem had been hurt. He said angrily,”Brat, which sect are you from? who is your master?”
you don’t need to know who my master is, ” Yunxiao said coldly. but, I’m very interested in you. He’s quite talented, a fifth-grade sorcerer. He was only focused on researching some boring secret techniques. Otherwise, his achievements would definitely be much more than this. Looking at your age, you’re not even thirty years old, right? Tsk, tsk, not bad.”
If these words were said by someone else, it would be very comfortable to hear. However, it was a huge irony for Gu Yuesheng to hear it from a fifteen-year-old fifth-tier Alchemist.
“Brat, you’re looking for death!”
don’t think that I’m the best in the world just because you’re a little talented! he roared in anger. I’ll teach you how to respect your seniors in the art of divination!
“Five curses, mirror flower!”
A burst of evil energy suddenly gushed out of his body, causing the space to fluctuate and distort as it swept forward.
