Chapter 359: Ancient City
On the evening of the sixth day of today's Tianwu trial, Xue Ye and the others came to the designated place outside the ancient city.
Time passes, tomorrow is the time to rush to Wuyue Mountain, time is imminent, no matter whether there is a harvest in the ancient city today, you have to leave early tomorrow morning.
The ancient city will be the last chance, and if nothing is won, the Overlord team will face elimination.
Everyone's faces were very solemn, looking at the ancient city with a long time in front of them, they slowly walked in, there was no one inside, there were ruins everywhere, but it was also an empty city.
"Let's split up!"
Xue Ye took Kong Yu with him, Yu Linglong took Xiong Jiaojiao and He Xiaoru, and then the other five people separated from the ancient city in a group to find traces of demon beasts.
The ancient city was very badly damaged, the only characteristic was that the soil was fiery red, and the heat was extremely high, and Kong Yu walked for a while to hang on his pretty face with beads of sweat.
An hour has passed, Xue Ye and Kong Yu have searched for most of the East City but still found nothing, time passed, gradually came to dusk, Xue Ye's face gradually became solemn, if they continued to gain nothing, there was only one ending for the overlord team, that is, elimination.
Xue Ye opened the bracelet, and the standings condensed, and the first place was still the Fire Scale Team, with a score of 57,843.
The second place has changed hands, and it is actually Man Xianyu, with 41,320 points.
It seems that after the Array Soul Team eliminated four team members, the impact on them was still great, and now in the third place, the accumulation of points is getting slower and slower, only 40689.
......
8th place wilderness team with 18,361 points.
And when I look at the overlord team again, the ranking has fallen to the eighteenth place, with only 2989 points, and I haven't hunted the demon beasts well for three consecutive days, if you want to advance, you have to catch up with the 18361 of the wilderness team, and if you want to catch up with more than 15,000 points in one night, it's almost impossible.
Although Jiang Shan and the others didn't say it, their faces were full of discouragement, which almost announced the elimination of the overlord team, because such a gap could not be caught up in a day, even if a large number of demon beasts could be hunted in the ancient city, it was impossible to surpass.
Xue Ye closed the scene, and then sat beside the ruins, silent.
"Sect Master, it's okay, the overall strength of our team is not as good as other teams, and it is very difficult to advance, this is not the reason why you are alone!"
Kong Yu couldn't help but open his mouth and comforted.
"It's okay, don't give up until the last minute, there is still time, we still have a chance!"
Xue Ye said lightly.
Kong Yu looked at Xue Ye's confident face, and was immediately infected, and the hope in his heart was rekindled, as if as long as he followed this man, there would definitely be hope.
"Found it!"
The rivers and mountains roared like thunder, resounding from the west city of the ancient city.
Xue Yeteng's thud ejected from the ground, and he and Kong Yu walked in the direction where the sound came from.
I saw Yu Linglong and the others take the first step, and everyone gathered in a corner, silent and did not speak.
"Jiangshan, have you found the demon beast?"
Kong Yu asked.
"Yes, there!"
Xiong Jiaojiao covered her face and said helplessly.
Xue Ye and Kong Yu looked in the direction she pointed, and saw that there was indeed a demon beast in the gap in the corner of the wall, red all over, the size of a gecko.
"That's it!"
Kong Yu was stunned.
"This is at least a demon beast, and it's better than nothing!"
Jiang Shan said with a smile.
Everyone was silent, the atmosphere was a little awkward, and the feeling of disappointment hit their hearts, could it be that there was really no hope, and they were about to be eliminated.
"Go!"
Seeing that everyone was disappointed, Jiang Shan didn't care, and blasted out a fist mark, blasting the gecko demon beast into pulp.
"Let's go!"
Yu Linglong also shook her head, it was difficult to say whether such a small demon beast could add one point.
"Wait!"
Xue Ye's face froze.
"What's wrong?"
The others were slightly flustered, not knowing what they meant.
Xue Ye didn't speak, everyone was silent, only felt that the ground was trembling slightly, and the entire ancient city was moving, which was indescribably weird.
"Be careful......
Before Xue Ye's voice fell, the ground under everyone's feet shattered, and the hot magma erupted like a fountain, about to engulf ten people.
Xue Ye and the others had already taken precautions, and they all retreated, avoiding the strafing of the pillars of fire on the ground, only to see countless demon beasts crawling out of the ground fire, all of them were similar to gecko demon beasts, but they were all very large, the size of a calf.
"Did you see your prey?"
Xue Ye asked.
"See!"
Everyone was like a wolf who had been hungry for several days, looking at so many demon beasts, their eyes suddenly glowed, and before Xue Ye could give an order, they swept up one after another, and their blades bloomed with a dazzling luster, slashing and killing indiscriminately towards the demon beast group.
These gecko demon beasts can shoot flames from their mouths, but their lethality is not strong, and they are far less than the strength of ordinary alchemy realm martial artists, even the weakest Jiangchuan leaves can be easily hunted.
Xue Ye summoned the Yanlin Tiger, the Monster Strength Gorilla King and more than two hundred mosquito beasts to kill wildly towards the surrounding demon beasts, covering every corner of the ancient city, the speed of hunting and killing was extremely fast, and the points were also growing wildly.
Three thousand......
4,000 ......
Five thousand......
......
Ten thousand......
After a busy night, Xue Ye's ten people did not stop for almost a moment, and finally cleaned up the demon beasts in the ancient city, and everyone's faces were full of tiredness.
At dawn, the first rays of sunlight in the sky break through the darkness.
The last demon beast was also killed, and every corner was searched, and after making sure that nothing was missed, everyone couldn't wait to surround Xue Ye and look at the results of the standings.
I saw that on the standings, the name of the Overlord team also soared, and it swept to the ninth place, with a score of 17389, which is less than 3,000 compared to the eighth-place wilderness team 20121.
"Damn, there is only a gap of less than three thousand points left, but there are no demon beasts left!"
Xiong Jiaojiao couldn't help but say.
"In less than an hour, all the points will be frozen, and if we can't catch up with the wilderness team within an hour, we will still be eliminated!"
Yu Linglong's sword eyebrows furrowed slightly.
"What should we do, there's still an hour, where we go up to find so many points?"
Jiangshan clenched his fists.
No one answered, silent, and the infinite hope was shattered again, and the desperate hunt for one night was still in vain.
It was only a little bit successful, and such an ending is really unacceptable.
"No, we can't sit still, I'll go find the demon beast!"
Jiang Shan was very unwilling and turned away.
Everyone didn't stop him, but they all remained silent, although more than seven hundred points are not impossible to catch up, if there are as many demon beast groups as yesterday, they may be able to fight, but the demon beasts in the entire ancient city have been slaughtered, in this case, it is impossible to get three thousand points in one hour.
"There may not be a single demon beast within a radius of dozens of miles, let alone hunting and killing it for an hour, even if it is difficult to find the demon beast, it may be futile for Jiang Shan to do this!"
Kong Yu whispered.
"Sometimes don't give up until the last minute, maybe the country can still bring us hope!"
Xue Ye laughed embarrassedly.
"Help... Help......"
In the distance, there was a sudden loud bang, and the center of the ancient city collapsed abruptly, and then the sound of the rivers and mountains was heard.
"Go check it out!"
All of them stood up and looked in that direction.
Most of the ancient city collapsed in an instant, and the underground erupted like a volcano, and the violent magma erupted, turning the night into a red color.
Jiang Shan fled frantically, stepping on the broken ground, and if he was half a minute slower, he would fall into the magma on the ground, but he was still slow, and the ground around him accelerated to collapse again, planting him down.
"Ahh I'm......"
Jiang Shan yelled and closed his eyes, but the next moment he felt that his rapidly falling body stopped in mid-air, and the sound of phoenixes around his ears sounded, Jiang Shan opened his eyes, only to see that he was carried up by Xue Ye and flew up.
"Boss, you're the best!"
Jiang Shan was overjoyed for a moment, but the next moment he was completely stunned, only to see a mountain-like behemoth crawling out of the magma in the ground.
But it was a bull-headed demon beast, composed of wriggling magma, it seemed to have been sleeping in the ground for too long, shaking its body, and shaking off the countless gecko demon beasts crawling on its body, and then looking at Xue Ye and the two with huge eyes.
