Chapter 290: Shadow Water Valley
Walking from the other end of the lightless land, it is dark all the way, but when the eyes adjust to it, and the starlight falls, everything around you can be seen approximately.
Jingye and his party walked through the dark mountain forest and came to the foot of the mountain, where there was a lake with a little white light, but it looked more like a black sea.
"From here, there are three floating islands along the way, and there is nothing else on the islands. After passing the floating island and walking inside, you will see two high cliffs, and there is a canyon more than 30 meters wide in the middle, which is the Shadow Water Valley. ”
Squatting down and touching a handful of black water, it was cold and biting, Shaleb looked at Pure Karma and Sorrow solemnly, and pointed to the endless front and said.
"The two sides of the river are towering, and the middle canyon is a waterway, and the cliffs are extremely smooth and difficult to climb, so it is really easy to defend and difficult to attack. Looking ahead, Jingye said indifferently.
From Shaleb's description, Pure Industry could think of how the Shadow Demon would defend themselves, but only when he saw the situation in Shadow Water Valley with his own eyes could he decide on their specific actions.
"Yes, that's why I don't recommend going here, once we enter the canyon, we will face a dense network of bows and arrows, and even if we pass, at the end of the canyon, we will still have to land, there can be no defense. Hearing the words of pure karma, Shaleb opened his mouth again to persuade. He wanted to take advantage of the fact that everyone had not yet embarked on this road, and quickly let the pure karma change direction, so as not to stay all here.
However, Jingye only glanced at Shalebu, and did not respond to his words at all, turned his head to look at Sorrow Mo and asked, "The aura of the demon realm is mixed, and it has some impact on the spiritual power of human cultivators, how do you feel at the moment?"
was asked by Jingye suddenly, and then he felt it anxiously and carefully, and then said with a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, although the breath is mixed, it has little impact, why did you suddenly ask about it?"
"It's nothing, I just think it's going to be a tough fight for a while, and you're going to have to put a lot of effort into it, so you have to make sure you're not affected by other factors. Hearing that he was fine, Jingye nodded and said to him briefly.
Chareb just said that there are canyons on both sides of the Shadow Water Valley, that is, there is a great possibility that they will disperse their forces, and they and the end of the sorrow will inevitably act separately.
Seeing that Jingye was so mysterious, he looked at him very strangely, and suddenly a message flashed in his mind, and he immediately glared at Jingye, and said angrily: "You don't want me to go to the front station!" ”
"Where do you want to go, don't worry, I won't do this, of course I know your relationship with me. Without further ado, we need to get going. Saying this, Jingye smiled awkwardly and squinted to explain.
He really wanted the end of the worry to go to the front station, but it wasn't the end of the worry that let him go straight to the front. But it always means the same thing, so after being broken by the end of the worry, the pure karma is also a little embarrassed.
Hearing this, he stared at Jingye suspiciously, and did not see any traces of deceiving himself, so he was silent and held his hands.
And Shaleb sighed, since Jingye was bent on leaving here, then what else could he do? If he can't beat it, he can only accept it helplessly. So he turned and ordered his men to prepare the raft at once.
It didn't take long for them to step onto the raft and float above the black water, drifting off into the distance.
They floated on the black water for a long time, until the speed of the current gradually increased, and there were three floating islands in the distance, and Shaleb spoke: "After these floating islands, we are very close to the Shadow Water Valley. ”
"You should be able to see the situation in Shadow Water Valley on the island, right?" said Shalebu, staring at the floating island that was getting closer and closer.
"If nothing happens, it's just a blur in the current light. After thinking about it, Chareb replied.
Even the water is black, and the starlight can only be reflected in the fall, which is not enough for them to observe from a distance.
"Is that so. Hearing this, Jingye bowed his head lightly and didn't say anything.
However, he stared at the floating island in the middle in front of him, and vaguely saw that he seemed to see a black shadow moving, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to let everyone control the spiritual power and stop the raft.
"What's wrong?"
The two beside him asked at the same time.
"There's someone on the island!"
"Someone!" Sorrow Mo looked at the floating island carefully, and in the darkness, he didn't find any figure, and wondered: "No, could it be that you are wrong." ”
"Impossible, my eyes have been cultivated, and I won't be mistaken, someone was indeed moving just now. "For the words of sorrow, Pure Karma directly vetoed. He has cultivated the golden light, his eyes are clear and bright, and he captures the movements of the outside world more carefully.
Shaleb didn't speak, looked at the floating island in the middle for a while, then looked at the other two, and said in a deep voice: "There are indeed people, look there, there is a fire." ”
Stretching out his hand and pointing to the floating island, he looked at it and saw an orange-white ball of light dancing in the darkness, like a torch. He also confirmed that there were people on the island, so he asked Jingye: "Then what should we do now, can't we go up?"
Jingye looked at the floating island calmly, thought for a moment, and said, "Wait here for half an hour first, if nothing happens, then we will go quietly." ”
"Good. ”
Chareb nodded, not negating the idea of purification. And he didn't have any idea at the end of the day, just what he said about the pure karma, how he did it.
It's just that when Jingye and the others stayed here, on the other side of the floating island, Yan Luo looked at the two thousand five hundred fire demon soldiers who had already boarded the warship, and his expression was excited.
"Yan Chi, Yan Fu followed His Highness to attack Shadow Water Valley, and Yan Jun stayed here to beware of the Shadow Demon Clan surrounding from behind. ”
With the demeanor of a general, he gave orders to the three fire demon generals behind him, and Yan Luo wore armor and held a fire knife and strode onto the main ship.
The three demon generals behind him responded respectfully, leaving one behind, and the other two followed Yan Lu to the boat, and then the large army marched towards the Shadow Water Valley in front of him.
On the floating island, only the Yanjun Demon General of the sixth layer of the Xuandan Realm was left, and there were five hundred Yan Demon Soldiers to defend it, and the others all went out with the Yan Spirit, wanting to capture the Shadow Water Valley in one fell swoop.
But in the Valley of Shadow Water, it was quiet and dark, except for the sound of rushing black water, only the icy gale mixed with water vapor blew out of the canyon.
At the end of the Shadow Water Valley, after a heavy defense, a shadow demon covered in black smoke said to the young man in front of him who was carefully wiping his bow and arrows: "My lord, the spies on the mountain have reported that there are a large number of warships coming towards us outside the valley, among which the eldest prince of the Fire Demon Clan, Yan Luo, is standing on the main ship, looking extremely arrogant. ”
"Buzz!"
The sound of the bowstring sounded, and the murderous intent appeared in the young man's eyes, and he said coldly: "The general will order that the archers on the cliff immediately enter the battle state and wait for the arrow order!"
"Yes, sir. ”
The Shadow Fiend receives the general's order to descend into darkness and disappear. The young Shadow Demon sneered, then lowered his head to wipe his bow and arrows, but the movement in his hand was very forceful.
"Bang bang bang bang ..."
A hundred meters from the mouth of the canyon, hundreds of warships floated.
Yan Luo stared at the Shadow Water Valley close at hand, his eyes swept over the extremely high cliffs on both sides, and asked the two demon generals behind him, "There must be a large number of shadow demons ambushing on the cliffs, which of you has a way to deal with them?"
The two demon generals, Yan Chi and Yan Fu, glanced at each other, but neither of them spoke, and each hesitated.
Yan Luo didn't hear the sound, turned to look at them, and suddenly shouted in a deep voice: "As a demon general, what are you doing dumb at the moment!"
"Your Highness, Shadow Water Valley is notoriously easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the only way to solve the trouble on the cliff is to climb up from the cliff, but the cliff is extremely smooth, and even if you can go up, it will take a lot of time. Seeing that Yan Lu was angry, the Yan Chi Demon General said with a bitter face.
They weren't the demon generals in their respective armies, they all had a chance because of the fall of the original demon generals, and they didn't have the slightest experience in attacking Shadow Water Valley, they had just heard of it.
"What did you say!"
Yan Liu's face changed drastically, and he glared at the Yan Chi Demon General.
Seeing this, the Yan Fu Demon General thought about it and hurriedly smiled: "Your Highness might as well be like this, since the cliff can be climbed in some time, then our troops will be divided into two ways, one way to charge head-on to attract firepower, and the other way to secretly climb from the two cliffs." ”
Hearing Yan Fu's thoughts, Yan Luo turned to look at Shadow Water Valley, and said after a while: "Yan Chi, you lead a thousand demon soldiers to attack Shadow Water Valley head-on, and Yan Fu you lead a thousand demon soldiers to attack the mountain cliff in two ways. ”
Hearing this, Yan Fu was overjoyed in his heart, and hurriedly responded and prepared manpower. He had only succeeded as a demon general not long ago, and his cultivation was not at the third level of the Xuandan Realm, and he was even more inexperienced than the gloomy Yanchi.
Yan Chi looked at Yan Lu's figure gloomily, took the order in a low voice, and immediately jumped directly to another warship to start arranging manpower.
Yan Luo didn't notice the change in Yan Chi, and looked at Shadow Water Valley to himself, fantasizing in his mind that he would break through this place, and then go straight to the rear of the Shadow Demon Clan, get his father's commendation, and then lead the team to rush into the Demon Emperor Palace and get his own treasure.
A moment later, two sides of the army were dispatched, one against the countercurrent, attacking the canyon. The other side is scattered and close to the bottom of the cliff.
"Whoosh!"
After the 1,000 people led by Yan Chi entered the canyon safely, a sky-high arrow shot out from the end, directly piercing the flame demon banner on the warship.
"Kill!"
Suddenly, rows of shadow demon soldiers appeared on both sides of the canyon, holding bows and arrows, and shot quickly at the many warships below.
"Whoosh whoosh..."
"Raise your shield!"
Looking at the rain of arrows that surrounded him, the Yanchi Demon General roared, holding a spear in one hand and raising a shield in the other to defend.
"Bell, bell... Puff pass, puff pass..."
But many of the demon soldiers under his command were frightened by the terrible attack in front of them, and before they could defend themselves, they were killed by an arrow and fell into the water. However, some of the demon soldiers were brave and good at fighting, blocking the arrows and shooting flaming arrows at the cliff.
At the same time, on the cliff, the demon soldiers led by Yan Fu had already begun to climb. But before they could climb ten meters, cold arrows rushed down, killing them all.
At this point, the battle in Shadowwater Valley began. It's just that on the other side of the battlefield, behind the floating island in the middle, Jingye and the others have approached the floating island and quietly landed.
