Five days later

Outside White River City

Cheng Long, who was carrying a huge black box on his back, walked above the sky, holding a pale yellow seal in his right hand, a silent dead air slowly rose in his eyes, and his white face couldn't help but show a look of doubt.

Yesterday it was a place full of life, why did it become a dead place overnight?

Since he couldn't perceive the existence of any life, Cheng Long simply came to the vicinity of the huge city tower directly in the sky, and then withdrew the dragon power all over his legs and slowly fell on the city tower.

Turning his hand and putting away the Wangqi seal, the golden dragon power condensed into a long sword in Cheng Long's hand, the black and white eyes scanned back and forth, under the search of the eye of the dragon god, any enemy hidden in the dark would be pulled out.

However... Empty!

White River City!

Three quaint big characters show a sharp breath, it is said that after the construction of the city, the first city lord is a kendo master, and even comprehended the legendary sword intent, these three big characters are the city lord carved with a sword, it is said that these three big characters have all kinds of miraculous means, but I don't know whether it is true or false.

Just looking at the ghostly city, Cheng Long could be sure that the swordsman who had long since turned into loess, even if he left a means of defense for the descendants of the city, could not successfully protect them.

There is a sword intent in the word!

But at this moment, in Cheng Long's perception, the sword intent in the words is weak, and it will even be shattered at any time, either it has been almost wiped out after countless years of baptism, or this sword intent has fought with a terrifying existence last night, but not only failed to kill the other party, but was almost scattered by the other party.

"Hoo ——!"

With a long breath of turbidity, Cheng Long stretched out his hand and touched the three big characters of Baihe City, and murmured: "Senior, if you still have a true spirit, can you tell the junior what happened here last night? If someone is maliciously killing someone, even if the junior gives up this life, he will kill this beast!"

It's a pity that although the sword intent trembled, it didn't mean to show up.

Arching his hand gently, Cheng Long sighed and continued: "Since the seniors have unspeakable secrets, the juniors will go to the city to explore by themselves and see if they can find some clues. ”

Cheng Long is not the heart of the Holy Mother, and now that the Qilin has been defeated by him, he can return to the Dragon Temple at any time, but he still has some things to do, and the heart of the plane has not yet arrived, but this does not prevent Cheng Long from treating this plane as his own territory.

There is such an evil thing in the territory, Cheng Long doesn't dare to ignore it, the senior who died at the hands of a traitor is a bloody lesson - enemies from within will always be more terrifying than enemies from outside!

Walking through the streets of White River City, Cheng Long seemed to be able to feel the prosperity of the past, but at this moment, Cheng Long had a different feeling.

Desolate, dead, eerie......

All kinds of weird descriptions can be used to refer to the city in front of Cheng Long, but everything in front of him has nothing to do with the city recorded in the book, which is claimed to be the most prosperous city in the interior except for the imperial capital.

The building is magnificent, but the doors are closed, even if there are some houses with open doors, there is no sign of life activity inside, the city gates are also wide open, but the soldiers in charge of guarding are not visible, even the royal mansion, which is one of the local tyrants, does not have any life at this moment!

Mind you, there is no life!

Even if there is no one in this city, it is just that, after all, it may be because Jiang Tianzhi knew that Cheng Long was coming, so he evacuated everyone in advance, but it is impossible for him to take away all the chickens, ducks, cows, sheep, cats and dogs in the city, right?

Even in the big river called the 'White River' that runs through the city, Cheng Long didn't even see a fish!

"What's the matter, killing all the creatures here overnight, is it a coincidence, or is it who is demonstrating against Cheng? If I hadn't stolen that moment of leisure yesterday, I should have spent the night in this city, could it be ...... That person was targeting me, but I didn't expect I to be in the city?"

Cheng Long reached out and touched his chin, with a thoughtful look on his face.

However, this idea of the other party targeting him only lasted for a moment, and was directly thrown out of Cheng Long's mind.

Wei Shengying and Qilin have fought with him successively, the former turned into a dried corpse, and the latter is still lying in the black box behind him, if there is really a third guy who doesn't know whether he is alive or dead, he should also gather all his strength to deal with him, instead of scattering his strength throughout the city, and even the beasts have not been spared.

"Since it's not for me, it's the creatures in White River City that are targeting?"

Subconsciously touching his chin, Cheng Long fell into contemplation again, and muttered: "Except for me, no one seems to be the enemy of Jiang Tianzhi, the other party has gone to such great lengths to kill a city, is it to blame me?"

But this doesn't seem to be necessary, with what he did in the Sea Wilderness, there is no need for the Zulong Dynasty to use this method to ruin his reputation anymore, as long as Jiang Tianzhi does not fall for a day, the propaganda about Cheng Long joining forces to summon the Chao Clan to attack the mainland will definitely not stop.

Being able to kill all living beings in a city overnight, and even dispose of the corpses cleanly, there are only three ways in Cheng Long's cognition:

First, a powerhouse of the sixth realm slaughtered the city.

Second, someone poisoned it, and it was the kind of poison that spread through the air, and even killed and turned corpses.

Third, someone has laid down an incomparably evil array, refining all living beings here.

The existence of the powerhouse of the sixth realm is not mentioned for the time being, but with such a big movement in the slaughter of the city, Cheng Long boasted that it was impossible for the other party to hide from his eyes, and poisoning was even more nonsense, if it was a toxin spread with the air, it was also impossible for Cheng Long to not even have a little perception, not to mention that there was such a toxin in this world?

Carrying a huge black box around the city twice, Cheng Long's face became more and more solemn.

There are indeed remnants of the formation outside this city, and the means that cause the city to turn into a ghost is indeed some kind of formation for refining living beings, and looking at this scale, it seems that there is more than one large formation launched at the same time, because ...... In addition to the direction of the imperial capital, there is still some anger, and everywhere Wangqi Xi looks, it is all dead air!

If he continued to deduce according to the broken formation, Cheng Long could easily know the effect of this great array—refining all the living beings in the array, and purifying all their energy for his own use!

According to the instructions of the formation, after this large array has refined its power, it will transmit all the energy back to the imperial capital for the person who arranged the large array.

"Jiang!

Cheng Long's face seemed to be coated with a layer of frost, and he shouted out the name word by word.

He has seen Jiang Tianzhi's method of not treating people as human beings, the two armies that came to the sea wilderness, and the innocent people in the sea wilderness, these people seem to be just a number for Jiang Tianzhi, as long as the goal can be achieved, it doesn't matter how much he loses.

But war is war, and now that Jiang Tianzhi is refining living beings in such an evil way, Cheng Long really can't accept it!

"Boom ——!"

With a heavy stomp on the ground, Cheng Long once again rushed to the sky, his black and white eyes flashed with golden light, and he began to carefully search for every grass and tree outside the city.

Those who helped Jiang Tianzhi arrange the formation should also be damned!

The whole person flew rapidly, and the mountains and mountains passed by in a flash, and the speed was countless times faster than the stop-and-go at the beginning, and even the scenery along the way!

The high walls of the imperial capital have already appeared in sight, but there is not much anger in the imperial capital, it seems that there are only some living mouths near the palace, probably Jiang Tianzhi deliberately stayed to serve his servants, and it may also be those accomplices who helped Jiang Tianzhi go to other cities to arrange formations.

"Jiang Tianzhi, get out of here and die!"

Cheng Long stood in the air, a pair of black and white eyes fell on the imperial capital, and his white face was full of indignation.

As the words fell, Cheng Long directly threw out the huge black box behind him, and went straight to the imperial capital, suppressing the power of the unicorn and withdrawing it back a little, and the unicorn, which had completely turned into a monster, also slowly woke up.
