Chapter 159: Ambush

"How is this possible?" Han Yi was a little shocked, according to the law of the power of heaven and earth, where the fire spirit qi is so strong, it will definitely attract some demon beasts that love fire attributes to gather and survive, and some fire attribute elixir spirit materials will also be born, and even spiritual fire.

Such an abnormal situation in the scorching mountains really made Han Yi puzzled.

"Yes, the situation here is completely contrary to our monk's understanding that the power of heaven and earth is mutually reinforcing. Many monks came to explore the area but found nothing, and gradually the scorching mountains faded into obscurity. ”

"It's a little weird. Han Yi said.

Cheng Tie shrugged his shoulders and said lightly.

"Who knows if these things are really abnormal, maybe our own understanding of the nature of heaven and earth is not enough. Those high saints, no one has ever come here to investigate, as if this place is normal in their eyes. ”

"Maybe. ”

Regarding Cheng Tie's statement, Han Yi didn't dare to agree, with the strength of the Sage, he probably disdained to explore here. A small scorching mountain was simply not enough to give birth to the heaven and earth spiritual objects that attracted them. Even if it is a flame scorching crystal, it is just a superb spiritual material, and it is still attractive to the supreme powerhouse, but it is not worth mentioning to the sage.

After flying among the scorching mountains for about half a day, the light of the battle mountain in front suddenly slowed down.

"After rushing for so long, everyone's spiritual power consumption is not good, let's take a rest here, it just so happens that the power of the fire spirit of the scorching mountains can cover the breath on our bodies. After Zhan Shan finished speaking, he took the lead and flew towards a huge volcano below.

Han Yi and the others immediately followed, and finally Zhan Shan dug a cave in the middle of the volcano for the six people to live temporarily.

Xiang Zhen himself has no cultivation, and he is in a hurry under the retreat of Zhan Mountain throughout the whole process, so he will not feel tired. However, Han Yi, who is not yet in the Spirit Venerable Stage, consumes the most spiritual power, even though his spiritual power is strong, and he is not weaker than the Spirit Venerable Stage Monk at all, but the speed is raised to a level comparable to that of the Spirit Venerable Monk, and the consumption is also very huge.

So as soon as he entered the cave, Han Yi first chose a place to sit down cross-legged, took out a few bottles of elixir, and began to recover his spiritual power.

He could completely foresee that the road ahead would not continue to be smooth sailing, after all, the current Tianyan City could be said to be completely surrounded by the tide of demon beasts. If they want to enter Tianyan City, they will inevitably have a close encounter with the demon army.

The four Spirit Venerable Cultivators plus such a half-step Spirit Venerable as him, once they make a move, they can definitely alarm the Demon Clan Supreme. So, he has to get his form back to peak as soon as possible.

Cheng Tie originally wanted to say a few words to Han Yi, but seeing that Han Yi had entered the state so quickly, he didn't say anything, and found a place to sit down and recover the consumed spiritual power.

Zhan Shan first turned his hand and took out a table and a blanket from the spatial ring, let Xiang Zhen sit on the blanket to rest, and then sat on the stone on the side and began to recover his spiritual power. The woman in red on the other side didn't seem to have any intention of recovering her spiritual power at all, she glanced at the cave lightly, turned around and wanted to walk out.

"Su Wen girl, now it is only thirty million miles away from Tianyan City, I hope you don't make any extraneous branches. Zhan Shan's indifferent words came.

Su Wen paused, frowned, and had to turn around and walk back into the cave. Nan Yuxiu chose a location near the end of the cave and began to recover his spiritual power. But he seemed to be a little absent-minded, his eyes under the mask slightly open, carefully observing the people in the cave.

Time passed slowly, Han Yi, Zhan Shan and Cheng Tie had already begun to settle down, and Xiang Zhen also fell asleep on the blanket. In the entire cave, only the red-clothed woman Su Wen and the black-robed masked old man Nan Yuxiu remained awake.

Nan Yu's hand in his sleeve robe slowly pinched out a special seal, and the ring on his finger silently overflowed with a puff of gray-white gas, which quickly dissipated into the cave.

After quietly doing this, Nan Yu Xiu completely closed his eyes and accelerated the recovery of his spiritual power.

Soon, three days passed in a flash, and after everyone had recovered to their peak state, they left from the scorching mountains and made a detour to Tianyan City.

However, what Han Yi and his party didn't know was that just in front of them, a group of black-clothed people were quietly gathering and began to compile a net.

In the blue poisonous miasma deep in the mountains and forests, several black shadows gathered together.

"Is there any news from the old ghost of the south?" asked a dark shadow.

"Not yet, just wait patiently, according to the other party's route, this is the only way for them to go to Tianyan City. The dark shadow in the middle said.

"Some time ago, Nan Lao Ghost said that he helped the Virgin find a candidate for Wumingzi among these people, and I can't wait to see what kind of genius it is. The third shadow stuck out her long tongue and licked her lips.

"Hehe, I feel the same way, and I have to focus on taking care of it when the time comes. The dark shadow who spoke at the beginning smiled sinisterly.

"If you kill him, I wonder if the old ghost Nan will turn his face directly?"

"What are you afraid of, the old ghost Nan's methods are only comparable to mine. ”

"I'm worried that he will say something in front of the Virgin when the time comes, after all, that guy has already been recommended by him to the Virgin. ”

"Hmph, Our Lady hasn't said anything about saving his life, if he can survive this crisis, he will really have the qualifications to become a five-god. ”

"Okay, don't be angry that others have found a suitable candidate, if you yourself find a good genius, you can also go to the Virgin to recommend yourself. The black shadow in the middle said majestically.

Listening to his words, several dark shadows around him suddenly stopped talking.

"Let's start arranging, at the speed of their journey, in two days at most, and we should be here. ”

"Yes. ”

After the black shadows finished speaking, they scattered in a hurry, flew in all directions, and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.

Two days later, several rays of light swept across the sky, rushing into the Scorpion Mountains, all the way deep. In everyone's soul power perception, the entire Scorpion Mountain Range could barely sense the breath of demon beasts, and it was obvious that all the demon beasts here had been recruited by the Demon Clan Supreme of the Relict Dragon Mountain Range to go to Tianyan City.

"Such a large Scorpion Mountain Range is actually empty, I really don't know what kind of scale the beast tide outside Tianyan City has reached now?" Cheng Tie was surprised, and said with some concern.

"Could it be that every time the demon venerables of the Beast Tide Relic Dragon Mountain Range will summon all the demon clans of the nearby mountain ranges?" Han Yi obviously didn't know enough about the history of the Beast Tide, so he could only ask Cheng Tie at this time.

"It's not all recruited, every beast tide before, although the demon venerable of the Relict Dragon Mountain Range will summon the demon clans in the nearby mountain range, they generally don't take all of them away, and they only take about half of them away each time. Because of such a large mountain range, there also need to have some powerful demon clans in charge, otherwise if all the demon clans are killed in battle, the subsequent development of the demon clan will be unsuccessful, which is extremely unfavorable to their plans in the future. ”

"Demon Clan, do you still want to make a comeback?" Han Yi was taken aback when he heard Cheng Tie's words, and suddenly thought of what Xiao You said to him when he was in the City of Insect Cultivation, could it be that everything that is happening on the continent now is secretly promoted by the Demon Clan behind the scenes?

"Brother Han, not only the demon clan, but also the Feng clan, the dragon clan, and the ghost clan that were defeated in the Great War of the Hundred Clans in ancient times, as well as the four demon clans of Sky Fox, Xuan Lion, Wind Tiger, and Thunder Wolf, which race doesn't want to return to the Xuan Spirit Realm?" Cheng Tie sneered, "It's a pity that the growth rate of my human race is too fast, so many years have passed, and their strength has even surpassed the sum of their seven clans, so even if they have this mind, they don't have the strength to challenge the majesty of the human race." ”

After listening to this, Han Yi nodded.

"It's just strange that the four demon clans of Heavenly Fox, Xuanshi, Wind Tiger, and Thunder Wolf, who have withdrawn from the Xuanling Realm for many years, have not moved, but those demon clans with dragon bloodlines in the Relict Dragon Mountain Range have been ready to move, and they will launch a beast tide in less than a thousand years. I don't know what they think, isn't this always consuming their strength?"

"Maybe. Han Yi couldn't figure it out, he had only heard of Taoguang Yanghui, but he had never heard of self-destructive strength.

"Everyone be careful, there is a poisonous miasma ahead, it looks a little difficult. The sound of the battle mountain came from the front of the line.

Han Yi and Cheng Tie's eyes were immediately attracted to the past, only to see that in the depths of the Scorpion Mountain Range, an overwhelming purple poisonous miasma was spreading, like a huge tsunami.

"Is there such a poisonous miasma here?" Han Yi asked with a frown.

"Probably not, there are no demon beasts in the Scorpion Mountain Range that are good at using poison, such a large-scale poisonous miasma, if it is a natural formation, I can't know it at all. Cheng Tie said affirmatively.

Just when a group of six people began to rise into the sky, preparing to cross this poisonous miasma, the poisonous miasma suddenly surged violently, turning into eighteen poisonous dragons and rising into the sky, passing through everyone's retreat at a lightning speed, colliding with each other in the high air, and exploding.

An endless miasma of poison left and fell from the sky, enveloping everyone.

"Be careful. Zhan Shan's expression changed and he exclaimed. However, it was clearly too late for him to remind. Everyone can only increase the output of spiritual power, so that the body protection light shield becomes more condensed, so as to resist the erosion of the poisonous miasma.

"Let's lean together and be careful of the ambush. Nan Yuxiu's voice came, but as soon as his words fell, a miserable scream sounded, "Ahhh

Zhan Shan, Cheng Tie, and Han Yi's faces changed drastically, and they immediately flew towards the location where Yu Xiu was in the south. When everyone arrived, they saw that Nan Yuxiu's body was densely crawled with purple centipedes that were a few feet long. Nan Yuxiu's body was bitten by the purple poisonous centipede, and he kept trembling, and the terrible screams made people's scalps tingle.

"Save him. ”

Cheng Tie flew over without hesitation, Han Yi took a step slower, and Zhan Shan followed. Just when the three of them approached Nan Yu Xiu's side for dozens of meters, Nan Yu Xiu's whole person suddenly exploded, and the purple poisonous centipedes all rushed towards Han Yi and the three of them.

"Not good, go back. ”
