Chapter 82: Shadows

The forest in the dark night is deep and mysterious. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

In the night sky, a lonely moon hangs in it like a silver plate. The empty hill was covered with a cold white veil by the moonlight. The autumn wind swept by, and the dark shadows of a few dead leaves crossed under the cold moon shadow, quiet!

Suddenly, a figure appeared silently on the empty hill, this person was wearing a huge black hooded cloak, and his back stood in the moonlight, a long dark shadow reflected in front of him.

"Calculate the time, it's time to come. The man muttered to himself.

Suddenly, the silent night sky was pierced by the sound of birdsong, and a few birds were startled in a nearby wood.

In the woods, a pair of dark green eyes looked greedily at the man on the hill, and behind his gaze was a huge blurred black shadow.

In a fluctuation of grass and trees, a strange black shadow sneaked out of the forest and slowly approached the people on the hill.

The black shadow could not be hidden in the white moonlight, revealing its true face. It turned out to be a beast with a body of two feet and the appearance of a black panther.

The panther's pair of green eyes stared at the people on the hill, quietly approaching, five zhang, four zhang......

The back on the hill remained motionless, as if unaware that danger was getting closer and closer to him.

Three feet away, the panther stopped. The hair on his shoulders stood up, his mouth opened wide, revealing a row of scimitar-like fangs, and a few strands of saliva slipped from the corners of his grinning mouth. The people standing on the hill still stood with their backs up, the corners of their cloaks fluttering slightly in the night breeze.

The panther bent on all fours, then kicked the ground violently, and its huge body pounced on the people on the hill like a death across the night sky.

At the moment of crisis, the man turned his head, and the outline of half of his face was faintly revealed under the brim of the hat covering his head, with pale blue skin and thin and fleshless cheeks.

"Look for death!"

Before the words fell, the person's body twisted strangely and turned around.

The four eyes were facing each other, and the feeling under the cloak was completely exposed to the moonlight. What is surprising is that the other half of its face is covered with gray-white scales like snake scales.

The black panther who threw himself in mid-air had never seen or eaten such a half-snake, half-human monster, and there was a trace of confusion in his originally bloodthirsty eyes.

The half-faced man suddenly stretched out his thin right hand, and his five fingers slammed into the air. As an eerie blue arc flashed through its fingertips, circles of blue power grids appeared around the panther's body.

There seemed to be a huge force pressing on the black panther's huge body, and the huge body began to twist violently like dough. With a bang, the entire body turned into a cloud of crimson blood mist under this oppression.

The blood mist rolled for a while, revealing the shape of a blood leopard the size of a foot.

I saw the half-faced man grinning, stretching out a red and slender tongue, licking it at the corner of his mouth, and then sucking it violently. The blood leopard in the air turned into a line of blood, and was sucked into its mouth.

"This inferior spirit beast, the taste of the blood soul is really bad. The half-faced man muttered to himself. After saying that, he turned his back, and in front of him was still the long dark shadow reflected by the moonlight.

The moonlight was like a sprinkle, and the hill returned to its previous tranquility.

After a while, another figure came to the hill.

The person who came was tall, dressed in nocturnal black, with a black scarf around his face, and he didn't seem to be very old between his eyebrows.

"This is the reward that I said before. With that, the masked man handed a storage bag to the half-faced man.

The half-faced man took the storage bag, took out a list from it, and put it away after carefully examining it. He whispered, "I'll make this a seamless arrangement." ā€

"Then there's Your Excellency Law. ā€

After a short time, both the half-faced man and the masked man left the hill. There is no abrupt shadow on the smooth post, and it is as smooth as silver sand.

......

The Heavenly Ghost Sect's autumn hunting activity was welcomed by many Heavenly Ghost Sect disciples, especially the new low-level disciples.

Most of the cultivation tasks of low-level disciples on weekdays were bland and boring. The autumn hunt, which has not been open for more than a decade, has reopened, and everyone wants to try their skills.

On a temporary square at the edge of the Ten Thousand Domains Forest, there were two or three hundred Heavenly Ghost Sect disciples standing densely and preparing to participate in the autumn hunting activities.

"This autumn hunting activity has not been open for more than ten years, and it is said that there are countless spiritual materials and spirit beasts in this Ten Thousand Domains Forest. ā€

"There should be a lot to gain. ā€

"My recent cultivation of the Golden Palm has broken through to the third layer, so I can just try my skills in this activity. ā€

"It is said that the fierce beasts in this Ten Thousand Domains Forest are extraordinary, so it is better to be careful. ā€

"I heard that there is a unique periwinkle in this Wanyu Forest, which is undefeated in all seasons and has the effect of rejuvenating and beautifying, I want to pick some and give it back to my junior sister. ā€

"Many people want to give gifts to their junior sisters, but I'm afraid it won't be your turn. ā€

......

In the square, all the disciples exchanged heads.

"Little sister, this autumn hunting activity should be able to earn a lot of spirit stones, and if you earn some spirit stones, you can pay off the debts you owe. In the crowd, Zhu Liunian, who was fat and dressed in an earthy yellow wide coat, said.

"Big brother, you rarely participate in trial activities on weekdays, and you have too little experience in fighting with people, I didn't agree with you coming, and this autumn hunting event has not been open for many years, and the risks within it are not yet known. Zhu Liuqing, dressed in a green skirt, replied.

"Hey, it's all my fault that I owe a lot of spirit stones for gambling, these days it's all up to your sister, I'm really sorry for you, I hope I can do my part this time, and always let you come out alone to participate in risky trials, brother, I'm really worried." ā€

"Big brother, our brother and sister depend on each other, your business is my business, it should be so, you have a pure nature, stay away from the gambling house in the future, and no longer go to gamble. ā€

"What my sister said was that I would never gamble again. Zhu Liu Nian said reproachfully.

At this moment, the bustling crowd suddenly quieted down, and everyone's eyes looked at one end of the square.

Several sturdy Heavenly Ghost Sect disciples came to the square surrounded a majestic man. This big man is twice as big as ordinary people, and he stands in the middle of the square like an iron tower.

Dahan looked at the many disciples in the square, nodded, and then said loudly: "This autumn hunting activity is presided over by my Zhan Tianba, I hope that the disciples who participated in this event will put their own safety first, and then give me more support for the old battle, and I won't say much about the rest." ā€

"Lord of the Barbarian Ghost Hall, the first body cultivator of the Heavenly Ghost Sect, his momentum is really extraordinary. Xu Yang praised in a low voice.

Nangong Chongshan in the crowd saw Zhan Tianba appear and threw away his admiring gaze. Said proudly: "The hall master is an unattainable existence for physical cultivators, and he is also one of the people I admire the most in Nangong Chongshan. ā€

At this time, a handsome young deacon beside Zhan Tianba began to read aloud a description of the autumn hunting activities in his hand.

"In recent days, spirit beasts from the Ten Thousand Domains Forest have invaded border villages, causing damage to the lives and homes of many people. At the request of the monarch of the Great Wei State, the Sect Master of the Heavenly Ghost Sect issued an order to organize this autumn hunting activity. This event was presided over by the Barbarian Ghost Hall Master Zhan Tianba, with the intention of expelling the spirit beasts in the Ten Thousand Domains Forest close to the side of the Great Wei Kingdom back to the center of the Ten Thousand Domains Forest, so that the people could live and work in peace and contentment. I am the god of the Heavenly Ghost Sect, and I am invincible. ā€

"Heaven-Ghost-Sect-God-Might, Battle-None-No-Victory!" Many disciples in the audience raised their arms and shouted in unison, and the sound shook the sky. Like the soldiers waiting to go out of battle, they are all gearing up and their morale is high.

"The operation was divided into three brigades and entered the Wanyu Forest in three directions. The squads in each brigade are composed of disciples from each branch or branch in order to coordinate the battle. The disciples of the Wild Ghost Hall do not form teams alone, but are scattered into various teams in order to keep in touch with the host of this event at any time. The duration of the event is seven days, and we will meet here after seven days. After the young deacon finished speaking, he retreated to the side of Zhan Tianba.

"The autumn hunt is the beginning. Under Zhan Tianba's order, many disciples in the square quickly turned into three brigades in an orderly manner according to the plan, and entered the Ten Thousand Domains Forest in three directions, left, middle, and right.

Nangong Chongshan was invited by Xu Yang in advance and came to the team of the Wood Spirit Academy. In addition to Xu Yang and Zhu Liunian, the disciples of the Wood Spirit Academy who participated in this event also had seven other disciples. Because the Wood Spirit Academy is not a specialized combat branch, the quota for this event is limited to ten people, and as a disciple of the Seven Great War Halls of the Heavenly Ghost Sect, he is the main combat force of this autumn hunting activity.

According to the prior plan, the team of the Wood Spirit Courtyard began to march towards the target area.

Two hours later, Xu Yang and his party reached the designated area safely.

"Why didn't you encounter a spirit beast along the way?" said a well-behaved female disciple in the Wood Spirit Academy's team with some nervousness.

Seeing that someone was questioning, Nangong Chongshan replied: "This junior sister's name is Yun'er." Don't be nervous, because the route of each detachment was cleared by our Barbarian Ghost Hall disciples in advance three days ago, so that everyone could reach the designated place smoothly and complete the planned task. From now on, the area to be searched will be very large. Because the danger level of this activity is not high, there are only a few disciples of Peiyuan Realm who participate in this activity, and most of them are disciples who have entered the spiritual realm and disciples who have cultivated in the virtual realm, so it is better for everyone to act cautiously. ā€

Nangong Chongshan pointed to a big tree not far away, and a small black pennant with the word "barbarian" written on it was inserted in the trunk.

"This flag was planted here three days ago. ā€

"Oh, I see. ā€

After hearing this, the ten disciples of the Wood Spirit Academy, including Xu Yang, all nodded their heads one after another, expressing their admiration for the orderly preparation of the Barbarian Ghost Hall in organizing this autumn hunting activity.

Nangong Chongshan carefully looked at the ten people in front of him with his eyes and said, "There are a total of eleven people including me, in order to complete the task in seven days, we need to divide into four teams. Distribute the team evenly according to combat power, and I'll be in a group with this Yun'er junior sister. The remaining nine were divided into groups of three each. We locate our teammates according to the compass in our hands, and the four teams keep a certain distance, and if one of the teams is in danger, they send a signal for help in time and move closer to the neighboring team to support each other.

Since the last time Nangong Chongshan broke the siege for Zhu Liuqing in the ring, Zhu Liuqing has a good impression of Nangong Chongshan's righteousness and ability. Seeing that Nangong Chongshan was brave and strategic, he couldn't help but throw his approving gaze at Nangong Chongshan.
