Chapter 160: The Man in the Shadows
The night passed in the blink of an eye.
Li Chen was the last of the night watchmen, he washed his face in the mountain stream, and looked at one or two big birds flying in the southern sky, stretching his waist widely.
The girls are also woken up by the chirping of birds and insects in the woods, and a new day's journey is about to begin.
In the space of one day yesterday, the trial team traveled south along the river, and they had already traveled dozens of miles all the way.
As they continued to move forward, the mountain stream gradually became a large river with a width of forty or fifty meters, and the water of the river changed from waist-deep to waist-deep at the beginning.
Li Chen and the others did not advance from the river to the jungle again, and they have lost the trace of the wolves since then.
However, with this river, whether they enter the jungle or not, they have a chance to catch the blood beast. If you encounter a fool like the Bloodscale Dog, it will make people smile even more, and you can easily get the Holy Land Rune.
"Brother Li Chen, do you think that since we caught that blood beast just now, it seems that someone has been staring at us!?" After killing another blood-colored toad the size of a basin covered in spikes from a dead tree on the bank of the river, Shi You whispered in Li Chen's ear while taking the opportunity to take the blood from his heart.
And Li Chen felt as if the back of his head had been pricked by a needle when he first came into contact with this blood toad, but he just thought that it was caused by the poisonous gas released by this blood toad, and Li Chen, who had taken the antidote prepared by Shi You in advance, did not take that feeling to heart.
But after he had disposed of the blood toad and dragged it out of the poisonous gas it had released, the feeling had not dissipated, and it had become more and more intense, as if danger was about to befall him at any moment.
Li Chen listened to Shi You's question, and then became alert, he was now a Divine Soul Body, presumably someone had been staring at him and causing the discomfort of the Divine Soul Body.
"Let's move to the river first!" Li Chen said in a low voice, "If the other party doesn't make a move, we will cross the river directly!" ”
Due to the obvious widening of the river, the riverbed on both sides of the riverbank is much wider than the upstream, and it is not the flood season, so a large part of the riverbed is exposed to the air, and there is a blank area of gravel covered with forty or fifty meters wide from the river to the densely wooded area.
If someone is really eyeing them, they will definitely need to show up on this riverbed if they want to make a move. If the other party just looks, then everyone will go their separate ways and go, and it will be better if it does not interfere with their side of the road.
After taking the blood from the blood toad's heart, another holy land rune was drawn on the center of a young girl's eyebrows. The group began to move towards the river bank as if they were still looking for other blood beasts.
And in the dense forest two hundred meters away from them, there were seven black shadows lying in the thick fallen leaves, their whole body breathing converged, and their eyes were staring at the trial team that was moving towards the river bank.
"Young master, how do I feel as if they have discovered us!?" A guy who deliberately lowered his voice said. It turned out that this group of people was the group of guys who had already plotted against Li Chen when Li Chen was conducting the inheritance assessment, and their young master was also a member of the Federation of Mysterious Organizations named Fu Cheng.
The old man who seemed to be a little absent-minded at the back of them was none other than Elder Mandis, who had been frightened at the beginning.
"Impossible, the breath-gathering technique we are using now was exchanged for a large amount of money from an old guy in the Sun Realm, and no one at the innate level in the organization can find it, let alone this group of guys in front of us who are not even in the acquired realm!" Fu Cheng was a little dissatisfied with his subordinates' questioning of the exercises he passed on to them, "In the past two days, have you used this kind of breathing technique to avoid fewer blood beasts?" ”
When Li Chen and the others were fighting with the blood toad, because the blood toad was only a first-level blood beast, and there was no special means of attack except for the poison, the girls in the western stone village did not make a move, and these guys who were hiding in the shadows saw Li Chen's performance and took it for granted that their group of people had not even reached the acquired realm, and they were hunting blood beasts completely with the sharpness of their weapons.
After all, Li Chen, who seems to be the oldest in this group, has not reached the acquired realm, and he seems to be the leader of this team, which has caused the illusion of these people in the shadows.
"We must get their weapons in their hands today!" Fu Cheng squinted his eyes and said, "Elder Mandis, I hope you don't sit down and watch at that time!" ”
"Xiaofu! I think we'd better not beat their ideas! Mandis, who was lying at the back, said a little tiredly, "The dagger in the hand of the young man just now doesn't need to be injected with spiritual power at all, and there is not even a trace of hindrance to pierce the skin of the first-level blood beast, just like the legendary holy weapon that can only be refined by characters above the god level, although it doesn't seem to be the kind of weapon with divine power attached, but this is not a weapon that ordinary people can use!" ”
"Elder Mandis!" Fu Cheng snorted and said, "Do you still want to say something about the remnants of the gods that you can't provoke!?" But we have already offended them by invading into their hunting grounds, why don't they send people out to kill us!? ”
"This ...... Maybe you're still looking for us! "Mandis was only fortunate enough to meet the Divine Relic Clan once, and he didn't know much about the things inside the Divine Relic Clan, and he couldn't answer Fu Cheng's question at all.
"Humph! Don't say what kind of god relict clan it is, even our federation doesn't dare to say that we can easily find someone who has the intention to hide in this blood vine demon forest full of blood and spiritual power interference! Fu Cheng squinted his eyes and smiled evilly, "Now that we haven't been discovered, it proves that this so-called god relic's ability to control this Blood Vine Demon Forest is not enough at all, and they don't even know that we have broken into the Blood Vine Demon Forest!" ”
"Elder Mandis! You are also a master of the Shaoyin Realm! Although now your strength has been suppressed by the weirdness in this Blood Vine Demon Forest to the Great Perfection of the Day After Tomorrow, you can't even have the courage to be suppressed! Not only Fu Cheng, but even the obscene thin man under Fu Cheng said to Mandis in a strange tone.
Elder Mandis sighed silently, although he was the elder of the outer hall of the Federation, his power priority was really not comparable to the group of young people in the inner hall in front of him, if he didn't listen to them now, the future that might be waiting for him after leaving this Blood Vine Demon Forest would not be so good!
Fu Cheng saw that Mandis no longer refuted him, and the corners of his mouth slanted, and the dissatisfaction in his heart was slightly lowered.
Originally, he was just interested in the weapons in the hands of the group of people in front of him, but after hearing that the dagger in the young man's hand was actually a holy weapon made by a god-level person, he was even more bound to get it.
And this Mandis is really a complete fool, his first reaction when he sees such a good thing as a holy weapon is not to want to grab it, a strong man in the Shaoyin Realm actually wants to escape.
What he Fu Cheng fancies, whether it is the real world or the spiritual world, will never let it slip away from his eyes easily, just like the gentle long-haired beauty he saw in the blood clan at the beginning, he will one day be included in his account......
