Chapter 404: Changes on all sides
At this time in the Northern Territory, in the Yangyang Sect.
"Sect Master, Sect Master, something bad has happened!"
Two disciples came running in with bruised faces and noses, and said in horror: "Master, the snacks that our disciples escorted a few days ago were robbed. We, all of our people..."
"And yesterday, the spirit stones that we used to store ten spirit rings were also stolen..."
The disciple was already in tears when he said this. "Just now we used ten carts of treasures as bait to ambush in the suburbs of the city, but a group of people in black clothes fell from the sky, not only robbed all the treasures, but also killed all our disciples. The two of us were lucky to escape back. Sect Master, what should we do..."
"Ahem... ahem, who dares to be so bold?" the old sect leader roared with an angry face.
Ever since he rescued Qin Zheng with forbidden techniques in the Southern Territory, his health has been getting worse day by day. Now he even needs to practice in seclusion. However, such a thing happened at this time. How could he not be angry?
"Master, please calm down. We have tried our best, but the enemy is too strong and they come and go without a trace. We have no way of tracking them down."
"Waste! You are all waste! You useless things can't even do such a small thing. What's the point of having you?"
The old sect leader was so angry that his face turned blue. He slammed the table and roared.
The two disciples were so scared that they knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly to beg for mercy: "Master, please spare our lives. We must recover the stolen treasures as soon as possible and catch those desperate thieves."
"Hmph, it's better to do so, otherwise you can just wait to be punished."
Qin Zhiming snorted coldly, waved his hand, and signaled the two disciples to go down first.
"Master, that group of people seems to have recruited people from those small sects and forces with weak strength, and then integrated them into a killer organization, which seems to be called Dark Night or something, Lingshi..."
A disciple frowned, trying hard to recall the name of the organization.
"Spirit Shadow Kill!"
Another disciple gnashed his teeth and said, "I didn't expect that in less than a year, they have become so well-trained!"
"Besides, they are very cunning. We can't find their hiding place at all."
Qin Zhiming suddenly remembered what happened a few months ago when this small force was still in its infancy and had just begun to rise.
At that time, he did not take this small force seriously, thinking that it was just a group of rabble that would not amount to anything big.
However, it now seems that his indulgence and judgment at that time were completely wrong.
At that time, he should have uprooted this small force instead of waiting for them to grow into towering trees and then bite him back.
"It's so damned!"
Thinking of this, Qin Zhiming cursed in his heart, but when he thought of the plan of the Great Evil Lord, he calmed down again.
After all, the Great Evil Lord's plan is more important than his personal grudges. If it can be successfully implemented, he will get more benefits.
"Go, unite our forces, and go to other forces that have not surrendered."
"Tell them that this is the last chance I'm giving them. Do you know what to say? Do you still need me to teach you?"
The disciple was stunned for a moment and nodded.
……
The sky is like a sapphire, clear blue, with light mist floating in the air, wisps of it stretching endlessly.
The surrounding mountain peaks are majestic, like a magnificent painting, so beautiful that it feels like being in a fairyland.
Huo Linger looked around and found that the Piaomiao Mountain secret realm was not much different from other secret realms.
She raised her foot and walked forward, but suddenly it was as if she was stepping on water, and ripples began to spread out in circles.
"Is this a small formation?"
Huo Linger smiled slightly. Although she had never formally learned formations in the sect, her father had taught her some since she was a child, and she had also read books in the space, so she was very sensitive to this.
With two fingers slightly raised, a palm-sized golden formation shattered, and Huo Linger strangely felt that her spirit had grown.
Even the star souls in the space began to swim happily.
Huo Linger's heart moved. Could it be that these formations could increase her spiritual power?
She took a step forward, wanting to continue exploring the situation, and the next moment, countless small formations suddenly appeared under her feet.
There are all kinds of them, really colorful.
Huo Ling'er broke the formation all the way and continued to move forward following the formation.
Her figure shuttled lightly between the formations like a nimble butterfly.
Every time she cracked the formation, she gained a deeper understanding of the secret realm of Piaomiao Mountain.
Time passed by minute by minute, and in the blink of an eye, a day and a night had passed.
It was not until the next day that the Piaomiao Mountain Secret Realm sucked in Tang Qi, who was ranked second.
This caused the people who had been waiting outside to start talking, and they began to guess who would enter this secret realm first.
The Piaomiao Mountain Secret Realm is open for a total of ten days, and according to the regulations, the person with the highest ranking will be sent into the secret realm on the following day.
In this way, everyone can roughly estimate the time when they or others entered the secret realm.
Ling Zhifei's face turned pale. None of the disciples in their sect could enter this secret realm. He felt that it was meaningless for him to wait for the result here.
At this time, he received a message from Qin Zhiming and learned some important information. Finally, he could no longer tolerate this situation, so he decided not to wait any longer, said goodbye to the fourth hall master, and left first.
At the same time, Bai Jingyu and the second elder looked at each other. They seemed to have some kind of tacit understanding in their hearts. Bai Jingyu's hand hidden under his sleeve directly crushed the jade stone that conveyed the message.
……
In the Northern Territory, on an empty and barren mountain, the atmosphere was tense and serious.
On the training ground, a young woman in black tights stood straight, tall and imposing, her eyes as sharp as a hawk, sweeping across everyone present.
Suddenly, she raised the token in her hand high up, and spoke in a clear and firm voice: "Lingyingsha, everyone, listen up! From today on, anyone in the Northern Territory who is escorting ordinary practitioners or transporting treasures of unknown origin will be killed. If there is resistance, kill without mercy!"
As soon as the words fell, all the people in black clothes shouted in unison: "Yes!"
Their voices were in unison, full of determination and power.
As the order was conveyed, the crowd quickly dispersed and began to practice on their own. The entire training ground was filled with a tense yet orderly atmosphere.
"Hongxiu, are you tired these days?" the young man asked concernedly.
The woman who had just been serious in front of so many people, when she saw a young man appear at the gate of the school field, a happy smile instantly appeared on her face, and then she shouted:
"Brother Yexing, you are here."
"I'm not tired! Sister Ziyue has been away for the past few days, so I naturally have to take responsibility for the things the master has told me to do. Moreover, this is a force that we all built together, so I must go all out and not let everyone down!"
Hongxiu said without hesitation, her face full of pride and confidence.
Her words were full of passion and sense of responsibility, which moved people.
The ruthless armor is only for outsiders.
Ye Xing looked at Hong Xiu, a barely perceptible trace of heartache flashed in his eyes. He reached out and gently patted Hong Xiu's shoulder.
Then he took out the spiritual ring that Huo Ling'er had given him a few days ago and handed it to Hong Xiu.
Hongxiu took it and looked at it, tears flashing in her eyes. Although the master was not with them, he had been caring for and protecting them in other ways, which made her heart touched and warm.
"Why are you crying, silly girl? Don't be sad." Ye Xing said gently, "When Miss Ling sees you again, she will be very happy. You have done a good job..."
Hongxiu wiped away her tears, clenched her fists tightly, and nodded vigorously.
She was determined to become stronger and share more of the pressure with her master.
"We must work hard and not let our master down." Hong Xiu said firmly, "I will definitely be able to help our master more!"
Ye Xing smiled and nodded. He believed that Hong Xiu would become even stronger and they would definitely become Miss Ling's pride.
