Chapter 372: War Breaks Out
With the passage of time, the situation in the Xuling Continent became extremely tense, and finally three months after the disappearance of the Nightmare Clan's people, the war broke out, but it was not a full-scale outbreak.
Originally, it was just two small sects fighting, but it became the fuse of the war, and without the knowledge of both of them, they had a lot of extra helpers, and then these "helpers" killed them with their own hands.
This is just a reason, anyway, these two sects have already fought, who can prove that they did not cooperate before? In this way, whether they win or lose in the future, it is relatively simple to clear up the relationship.
Fortunately, the location where the war broke out was not very close to the imperial city, and it had not been able to affect the imperial city for a while, and many forces were still waiting, as long as the imperial city was not lost, they did not need to take action.
Most people's attention is now on the three major sects of Lingyun, Zhenwu, and Qianshan, whether they want to make a move, this is the most important question now, it is best if they don't make a move, and if they make a move, they will be eradicated immediately.
Although according to the previous speculation, these three major sects should wait for the end of the war with peace of mind, and then stand up to clean up the mess, but it is not necessarily, who knows if they will go against the whole continent.
If you want to say that the most affected by the war, it is definitely the civilians who will not participate in the war, some people are forcibly taken to the battlefield, and many more people still choose to flee, but most of them will die on the road.
After all, the Xuling Continent is so big, there are really few places for them to escape the effects of the war safely, and now they can't even go to the coast of the North Sea, and it has been occupied by people who don't worry about food and clothing.
The only place that can accommodate refugees is Luo Wenxiang's small city, and now the number of people in the small city is increasing at a speed visible to the naked eye, and Li Yu and Wu Xing, who are standing on a high place, can clearly see this scene.
"I didn't expect this continent to be chaotic, it was fine half a year ago, but now it has become like this. ”
Li Yu couldn't help but sigh with emotion, Wu Xing brutally dismantled the stage and said: "I think we seem to be the most unqualified people to say such things, if it weren't for us, the mainland wouldn't seem to be in such a mess." ”
Li Yu didn't know how to answer these words for a while, although this is not very good, but it is indeed a fact, if it wasn't for them attacking the imperial city and robbing the prince and princess, this kind of thing would not necessarily happen.
"It makes sense, but it's not all your responsibility, Jiang Hanhai is indeed a good emperor, and the development of the imperial family under his rule is indeed far beyond when other people ruled. ”
At this time, Xue Yao's voice came, and when the two turned around, they saw Xue Yao slowly walking up the stairs, which was the central location of the small city, and it was a tall tower specially built by Luo Wenxiang.
The whole town can be seen clearly here, no matter where there is a problem, they can find it as soon as possible, Li Yu and Wu Xing thought that they couldn't live here in vain, so they took on this task.
"But it is precisely because the development of the royal family is so fast that all the forces on the mainland have to be afraid of them, which is the fundamental reason why the royal family has fallen to this point today, you just let it break out. ”
Xue Yao leaned against the fence of the tower, looked at the people who were constantly pouring into the city below, and said this, although he was not very old, he had experienced much more than the two of them.
He saw the situation on the mainland more clearly than they did, because for a period of time, he had been messing around on the mainland by himself, and he knew more about it when he was found and was about to die.
The three of them looked at the crowd below, and they all fell silent for a while, after all, they were people on the Xuling Continent, and they really didn't want to enter the troubled times, so that everyone would not have a good life.
"It's been three months, and I don't know how far they have progressed, whether they can come back in time, whether the royal family can continue to exist, it depends on when they will come back. ”
It took a long time for Xue Yao to say such a sentence, and then he turned over and went out, he saw a dispute in the city, and wanted to deal with it, as for the "they" in his mouth, of course, they were the Nightmare clan.
Li Yu and Wu Xing also understood what he meant, but they still didn't say anything, just glanced at the direction he left, and then began to continue to observe the situation in the city.
At the same time, the Nightmare clan on another continent was already preparing a very important action, and not long ago, all seven of them had mastered the illusion space and the Heavenly Demon Shadow.
In other words, all the preparations have been completed, and the next step is to get down to business, and their first step is to obtain Ling Yunhao's double pupils, starting with him with the least risk.
There are two reasons, one of them is that according to Xuanwu, Ling Yunhao's guardian spirit beast should be the best to speak, it is easier to bring it out, and the difficulty is really small.
Another one, that is, Ling Yunhao's spiritual power is sufficient, and he has also suffered the ability brought by the double pupils, so there is no need to worry about any accidents due to his body being unable to withstand the power of the double pupils, it is most appropriate to start with him.
Then there is the issue of personnel arrangement, although the other six people will use the Heavenly Demon Shadow and can enter the land of trials, but no one can guarantee that there will be no danger here, and it is still necessary to leave two people outside.
"In this way, Jiangling, you stay outside, and I am more relieved that you will be in charge of this matter, Han Hao, you will also stay, your spiritual power will improve slowly, you also know this, so you must cultivate as soon as possible. ”
Guo Chen finally decided to leave the two of them behind, Jiangling has nothing to say, he is telling the truth, as for Han Hao, there may also be reasons for this, but the main reason is well known to everyone.
What he decided, there was no big problem, of course no one would come out to oppose it, so Ling Yunhao opened up the illusion space, but Guo Chen didn't move for a long time, and of course others wouldn't move.
He was still thinking that Jiang Xueyan's current strength was a first-level strength, and it stands to reason that it should be enough to protect herself in the land of trials, but her actual combat experience is too little, is it really good to let her in?
Now it is almost certain that she will die later, Guo Chen thinks that this is not the time for her to die, so he does not dare to put her in danger, to put it mildly, she is the only tool that can help Guo Chen find his emotions.
"Don't think about it, just go in with the four of you, there won't be anyone in danger of life in the place of trials, and with me, the guy inside won't hurt you, let's go." ”
Xuanwu, who had been watching the play from the sidelines, knew what he was thinking, and said such a thing, and then let his spiritual power dissipate, retract his consciousness, and prepare to accompany them into the place of trial.
Guo Chen glanced at Xuanwu, then nodded, and after sitting down, he let his soul enter the illusion space, and the others naturally followed, and the souls of the four people soon met in the illusion space.
Then the four of them released the Heavenly Demon Shadow at the same time, and rushed into Ling Yunhao's trial land, this space was completely different from the trial place where Xuanwu was at the beginning, it was much more gorgeous, making them think it would be an illusion.
But no, this is a real space, there are many floating islands here, of different heights and sizes, and it doesn't seem like it's split, it's more like it's independent, and all kinds of terrain are available. In addition to the usual terrain, there are even volcanoes that are constantly gushing lava, and the magma flows to the edge of the island and just flows into the void, and they don't know where the lava will go.
Not only natural terrain, but also castles, small towns, and even cities, which are built by humans, there are at least hundreds of large and small empty islands, and they don't know where to go.
But someone can answer their doubts, and before they know it, there is another person next to them, it is Xuanwu after the transformation, who can tell the people of the Nightmare Clan where to go and succeed the fastest.
They followed Xuanwu's instructions and came to the huge castle, which was so large that it even surpassed the palace hall, and when they entered the door, they found that there was only an empty shell.
There is nothing here except the basic chandeliers and stairs, not only the furniture, not even the floor, and as soon as you enter the door, you will see dirt, and it is exactly the same as the dirt outside the castle.
As for the ceiling overhead, that is, the floor on the second floor, it is actually the ground, which is impossible to exist in reality, and it seems that the spirit beasts in this place of trials are not very imaginative.
"What are we doing here, if I'm not mistaken, this should be a replica of the castle of our world, it looks exactly the same from the outside, but it's a pity that this is the way it looks inside......"
Shen Xuan asked Xuanwu such a question, and said a lot of things that other people couldn't understand, although they knew that he didn't belong to this world, they didn't know what he originally had in that world!
"If I'm not mistaken, there should be an incarnation of the Spirit Pupil here, and you should be able to find her here, and then ask her to take you to Suzaku, and you can subdue her in front of Suzaku and you can go. ”
I've seen through the question, I've never seen Xuanwu so thorough, this is a person who can't bear it, of course Suzaku can't bear it, so he just spoke out to stop it, and with a chirp, a little girl appeared in front of them.
"Stinky Wangba, you are unreasonable, you still have to come in and interfere in my trial, and directly tell them the method of passing, I haven't seen you for more than a thousand years, and you are still so unruly. ”
Although it sounded like the voice of a little girl talking, it was definitely not, first, she didn't open her mouth, and secondly, the voice didn't come from her direction, it should be the guardian spirit beast of this trial land.
"Okay, okay, I'll go, I'll go, hurry up, I'll wait for your good news. ”
Xuanwu directly admitted that he was ready to quit, but everyone could see that he was just evading responsibility, this matter had already been done, and the question had been thoroughly understood, did it matter if he stayed here or not?
However, Xuanwu really did not disappoint them, and before returning to consciousness, he whispered: "If you can't clear the customs yet, then I will go back too, lest I make them laugh." ”
After all, his consciousness had returned to his body, hidden in Guo Chen's nightmare pupil, and the other three people were already staring at the little girl, especially Shen Xuan.
Several black blades had already appeared on her right hand, which was obviously intended to subdue her by violent means and force her to take everyone to Suzaku, which was indeed the fastest way, but it was also the most unlikely.
The little girl glanced at his right hand, and laughed out loud, and the four of them were stunned for a moment, and then they felt some slight tinnitus, and with the little girl's laughter, they actually felt a little dizzy.
This is really incredible, they are all people with nightmare pupils, and they have all reached the ground level, and they still feel dizzy, which is unreasonable!
