Chapter 357: Entering the Demon Valley to Find People
The night was deep, and black demonic energy rose into the sky, constantly circling in the sky.
The demonic beasts and puppet demon soldiers that appeared behind the Demon Qi Valley became stronger and stronger, and the battle became more and more intense.
The demon clan originally changed their guard once every two hours, but now they had to shorten it to one hour to change their guard once.
Although the three thousand demon soldiers brought by Mo Tian and Lin Sen were dead on the city wall, they were exhausted.
Nalan Tianyue stood on the high wall and looked down condescendingly.
I saw that the demonic aura in the valley was even thicker, especially in the middle part, there always seemed to be something faintly calling her, but this feeling was different from Wu Tong's calling.
There is also a glimmer of opportunity in the midst of danger.
Hu Xiaomao stayed by Nalan Tianyue's side and persuaded: "Miss, you've been watching for an hour, why don't you go and rest first?" ”
"How long is it going to be daylight?" Nalan Tianyue turned her head and asked.
"It's the end of the day, and there is probably an hour before dawn." Hu Xiaomao looked at the rich demonic aura above his head, no matter how he looked at it, it didn't look like it would be dawn.
Nalan Tianyue was silent for a moment, and then said slowly: "You prepare, if he doesn't come out after an hour, we will enter the valley." ”
He was referring to Baili Longyan.
Hu Xiaomao's eyes widened in surprise, and he hurriedly persuaded: "Miss, the Demon Qi Valley is so dangerous, you can't go." ”
"yes!" At this time, Motian also fell from the sky to Nalan Tianyue's side, and persuaded, "Miss, if you don't worry about the safety of your senior, I'll bring a few demons in to find him, where do you need to take risks?" ”
"No, the demonic qi inside this valley must be stronger than the outside, don't let alone enter without my protection, even if you can't move an inch." Nalan Tianyue shook her head.
Without the protection of the white bone skull, they will definitely be torn to pieces by the demonic beasts when they enter.
In addition to going in to find Baili Longyan, she also had a wonderful feeling in her heart, there must be something waiting for her in the center of the valley.
"Okay, in that case, then let's bring a few more capable demons in to protect the eldest lady."
Hu Xiaomao understands his own ability, if there is no help from the eldest lady, they can only find death when they enter the valley.
And so it was settled.
Hearing that Nalan Tianyue was going to enter the valley, the demons ordered them to volunteer to accompany them.
However, Nalan Tianyue only selected seven demon clans in the end.
In addition to Hu Xiaomao and Motian, there are also bison clans, pythons, apes, brown bear patriarchs and Liu Miao.
Bison and brown bears have strong defenses, apes and pythons are agile, and the four demons cooperate well to withstand many demon clans.
Although Liu Miao's attack power is not good, he came out of the Dryad Valley and knows the terrain inside very well, so he is just right for him to lead the way.
Hongyue was very disappointed that she was not selected, and she could only repeatedly explain that Hu Xiaomao must take good care of the eldest lady.
"Patriarch, don't worry!" Hu Xiaomao nodded vigorously.
The other demon clans also showed their determination to protect Nalan Medicine Master to the death.
Liu Miao didn't speak.
Originally, he came back from his travels just when he was in high spirits, but he found that his beloved master had died, his admired elders had become wicked, and the valley where he had grown up had become a place of demonic energy, and he was now in a very sad mood.
"Liu Miao, you will open your eyes and recognize the way when you go in, and it is best to take us directly to find the Yin Locust Tree." The bison patriarch patted Liu Miao's shoulder vigorously.
Although the Yin Locust Tree is very hateful, Liu Miao, as a disciple of Wu Tong, is still quite popular among the demon clan.
"Hmm." Liu Miao nodded, and a pair of eyes looked straight at the valley surrounded by black gas.
In the past, the locust trees lived on the east side of the valley, and I don't know if they are still there.
At this time, Hu Xiaomao called him beside him, "Liu Miao come here, the eldest lady has something to ask you!" ”
Liu Miao walked over quickly, saluted Nalan Tianyue first, and then asked, "I don't know what the eldest lady commands?" ”
"Liu Miao, what's in the middle of the valley?" Nalan Tianyue asked.
"That's where my master used to retreat!" Liu Miao replied.
At that time, the sycamore suddenly left a closed letter and disappeared, and the locust tree said that he had gone to retreat in the middle of the valley, and then forbade anyone to disturb him.
Over time, it became a forbidden place.
"Retreat?" Nalan Tianyue thought of Wu Tong, who suddenly disappeared with Linghua, and felt that he might have something to do with this valley, so she said, "Later, you can take us directly to the middle of the valley." ”
Although Liu Miao didn't understand why Nalan Tianyue did this, she still nodded and said, "Yes." ”
Nalan Tianyue called the bison patriarch and other demon clans over again, and each demon gave a charm, saying, "Hide it closely." ”
This is a tracker, there are too many accidents in the valley, if she accidentally gets separated, she can still use this tracker to find them.
Ferris and other demons were very convinced of Nalan Tianyue, and after receiving the charm, they carefully put it away.
Nalan Tianyue said a few more words to Hongyue and Lin Sen, and then drove the white bone skull to rise into the sky, and in the shroud of red magic light, with Hu Xiaomao, Motian, Liu Miao and other demons walked retrograde from the passage towards the valley.
The red magic light had a certain shielding effect, and those demonic beasts and puppet demon soldiers didn't seem to see them, and let a few of them squeeze into the valley.
The valley was so dark that you couldn't see your fingers, only the faint red light from the white bones barely illuminated the surrounding environment.
The valley that used to be lush and overgrown with big trees is now empty,
As far as the eye can see, except for the demonic beasts, which are puppet demon soldiers, they can't tell the southeast and northwest at all.
"Go this way." Liu Miao pointed in the direction of the east accurately.
"Liu Miao, can you still see the road in such a dark place?" Hu Xiaomao asked in surprise.
"I grew up in this valley since I was a child, and I don't need to look to know where the direction is, you guys are right to follow me." Liu Miao said affirmatively.
"Let's go!" Nalan Tianyue could feel that the location that Liu Miao was pointing to was the middle of the valley.
Motian, Hu Xiaomao and other demons protected Nalan Tianyue and followed Liu Miao step by step to the east.
The further you went inside, the fewer and fewer demonic beasts and demon soldiers, and some trees began to sparse out.
The pitch-black bodies of these trees had obviously been infiltrated with demonic energy, especially one of the towering trees, which was as black as ink, and from time to time there were dry black trunks that fell and would collapse at any time.
Liu Miao's eyes widened immediately when she saw this big tree, and she hugged it and shouted anxiously: "Third Uncle Ancestor, Third Uncle Ancestor!" ”
"What's wrong?" Nalan Tianyue asked strangely.
"Miss, this is the third uncle of our Willow Demon Clan, you can help me see what is wrong with him." Liu Miao turned her head towards Nalan Tianyue for help.
"It's dead." Nalan Tianyue shook her head, she didn't need to open her ghost eyes to see that this big tree had been destroyed by demonic energy, and those who were already dead couldn't die anymore.
"Third Uncle Ancestor!" Liu Miao was heartbroken.
In fact, as early as when he saw the valley being invaded by demonic energy, he expected this situation, but he had been hoping for luck.
Now that he sees that the third uncle ancestor with the highest cultivation in the clan has not escaped the catastrophe, he knows that the remaining tree demons are only afraid that they will be more than lucky.
"Liu Miao, I know you must be in a sad mood right now, but we have more important tasks to do at the moment." Ferris sighed and said, "It's the right thing to find the Yin Locust Tree early to help your clan demon take revenge." ”
"Hmm." Liu Miao nodded with tears in her eyes, let go of the big tree and continued to walk forward.
His shoulders drooped, as if he had a thousand pounds of weight on his body, and his eyes were full of confusion, what would he do if all the dryads were dead.
Nalan Tianyue didn't comfort Liu Miao, because she knew that Wu Tong was not dead.
He left in a hurry, probably to come back and save the Dryad.
But now you can't tell Liu Miao.
The further back they went, the fewer demonic beasts and demon soldiers there were, and the more the Dryad clan died.
There was a dead silence in the gloomy valley, save for their footsteps and breathing, and the feeling was particularly oppressive.
If it weren't for the pale red magic light emitted by the white bone skull, it really felt like there would never be an end.
Liu Miao's eyes were red, his expression was painful, and when he saw the loss of the dryad, he no longer stopped, but quickened his pace and led everyone to the east.
When they came to a gathering place of tree demon corpses again, Nalan Tianyue's heart suddenly jumped and said, "Liu Miao, wait a minute. ”
Liu Miao stopped and looked at Nalan Tianyue for some reason.
Suddenly, the corpse of a dryad closest to him suddenly stretched out several black vines and rolled towards the willow seedlings.
The sky closest to Liu Miao hurriedly raised his hand and shot out several colored rays of light like sharp blades, slashing at those black vines.
Half of the black vines were cut down in an instant, and the rest were dragging the willow seedlings back at a faster speed.
Hu Xiaomao and the other demon clans were about to rush to save Hu Xiaomao, but the corpses of the tree demons surrounding them seemed to come to life, waving black vines and setting up nets to surround them.
Nalan Tianyue was about to make a move, but saw a sharp whistle from Hu Xiaomao's mouth, and then a flame-shaped demonic qi suddenly erupted from his body, burning like a torch.
Hu Xiaomao's eyebrows and eyes instantly turned pale red, and his lips were red like fire.
A pair of red eyes flashing with a fierce light are like lit flames, which makes people dare not face them.
Those black vines were burned to death by his demonic light in an instant, leaving only ashes everywhere.
Nalan Tianyue looked at Hu Xiaomao, who had changed greatly, but she didn't expect him to suddenly improve so much.
It seems that the Orc Secret Realm takes away the spiritual power of the spirits, making it difficult for them to survive, but in turn, it allows them to advance quickly.
She suddenly thought of her grandmother Yu Chi Lanxin, her old man had been in the secret realm for more than ten years, if she was also affected by this law, wouldn't she be going against the sky when she came out to cultivate?
Just when she was still thinking about what secrets there were in the orc secret realm, Motian's anxious voice came through, "Miss, Liu Miao is gone." With just such a momentary exercise, Liu Miao no longer knew where to be dragged by those black vines.
