Chapter Seventy-Three: The Tiger's Mouth
If you want to occupy a place in this era of gods and demons, you can't take some risks. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Lin Kong didn't want the country he had fought so hard to build down to be destroyed in the hands of these monks and warriors.
What's more, since he has gotten rid of his slave status and become a hegemon, he can no longer nod his head when he sees people like before, and he has lived that kind of life of forbearance and stealing.
If he wants to be respected in front of those monks and strong people, then he must be strong. So whether it succeeds or not, Lin Kong has to take a risk.
Before obediently sending the phantom stone to Bai Mu City, it was because Lin Kong didn't know its value, and considering the safety of the people of Bai Mu City, he didn't do anything in private.
But now it's different, the phantom stone has been handed over to the other party, and knowing that it has extraordinary value, how could Lin Kong be willing to give up!
"If you don't enter the tiger's den, you can get the tiger! Ada, pick ten people and follow me! Lin Kong explained a few words to Qin Gao and Lan Lingping, and then took Ada and ten carefully selected guards and rode towards Bai Mucheng.

"Hey, Qin Gao. Why don't you stop the lord? If something goes wrong with him, what are we going to do? Bigfoot heard that Lin Kong took Ada and the others with the idea of fighting the Phantom Stone, and hurriedly ran to find Qin Gao and others.
"Humph! You don't know what kind of temper the lord has? What he decided, can you and I stop it? It's inexplicable to blame me as soon as you run away. Qin Gao was worried about Lin Kong's departure, so when he heard Big Foot complaining, he yelled a few words unceremoniously, shook his long sleeves, and simply hid to the side.
And when Lan Lingping saw Bigfoot walking towards them, he had already avoided it from a distance, and he didn't give Bigfoot a chance to question at all.
Big Foot was very annoyed by this, and walked around the camp blindly, the more he thought about it, the more uneasy he became, so he simply took a few henchmen and quietly walked out of the camp with Qin Gao and Lan Lingping on his back.
When Bigfoot sneaked out of the camp with the people, Lin Kong, Ada and the others had already returned to the outside of Bai Mu City, and hid in a dense forest from afar, quietly watching the battle between Ling Wuxian and the black-robed man.
Everyone was twenty or thirty miles apart, and they could only see the sword qi and black qi, and they couldn't imagine the battle scene on the scene, and when the distance was shortened to one or two miles, they really realized the terrifying immortal art and peak swordsmanship.
I saw that Ling Wuxie's handleless long sword had become three at some point, although each one was thinner than the original, but the length and width had not changed.
Three almost identical long swords, two surrounded Ling Wuxie, and the other one was more than a foot long with his fingers, bringing up more than a foot of sword qi, flying in the air, and a black skull sacrificed by the black-robed man, you come and go, and you are very happy!
The sword qi and black qi that Lin Kong and the others had seen before were the energy generated by the collision of the black skull and the long sword.
However, the sword qi attached to the real close range, as well as the magic power emitted by the black skull, are much more terrifying than the strength, and everywhere it passes, there is a roar, like thunder and lightning, within a radius of a hundred zhang, the sand and dust are all over the sky, covering the sky and the sun......
"Gollum!"
Ada secretly swallowed a bag of saliva, and said to Lin Kong with a shocked expression: "Lord, this kind of posture, even if they turn a blind eye to us, it is impossible to get the phantom stone!" ”
"Look at the range of a hundred zhang ahead, let alone people, I'm afraid even the ants are dead, we can't get close to the phantom stone at all!" Ada was starting to get a little scared.
Hearing this, Lin Kong didn't blame, because he himself was also frightened, and he knew very well that with the strength of these mortals, they couldn't resist the sword qi and immortal arts.
However, Lin Kong still did not give up, and took up his divine sense to scan in the direction of the east gate, and found that Che Zhenshan and the Kurosaki army had also left, and the entire east gate could be said to be empty, and they were all hiding on the wall of the west gate to watch the battle.
As the saying goes: when the gods fight, the people suffer.
This is really not true at all, before Ling Wuxian and the black-robed people made their moves, although they repatriated Lin Kong, Che Zhenshan and others, and did not cause any casualties, but the city wall of Bai Mu City, which could not be moved, was severely damaged because of this.
The city walls, which were about six or seven feet high and one foot thick, and the towers that stood on the walls, were in ruins, and a large number of stones rolled down the city, almost filling the moat.
Such a huge destruction made Bai Mucheng completely unprotected, and the houses and streets near the east gate were basically damaged, just like an earthquake on the ground.
"The immortals are really terrible, lord, let's go back, shall we?" The more Ada looked at it, the more frightened he became, for fear that a sword qi would come, so he would take Lin Kong's life, and persuaded him again.
"What's the hurry, wait." Lin Kong retracted his sense, glanced at Ada and the others, and was silent in thought.
However, at this time, a dazzling light flew over with a bang, directly splitting a guard beside Ada in half, and the powerful energy even rolled Lin Kong and the others up more than a zhang high, bringing them out more than a dozen zhang away.
Twelve people, including Lin Kong, were killed and injured in an instant, but Lin Kong escaped a catastrophe, but the reason why he was able to survive unscathed was all because Ada reacted quickly enough and turned over and pounced on him, otherwise, no one would have been spared.
"Ada...... Ada ......"
In order to protect Lin Kong, Ada was seriously injured, several ribs were broken by the strength, and after the whole person landed, he completely fell into a coma.
Seeing this, Lin Kong hurriedly ordered a few people who were slightly injured to return to the camp with Ada, and quietly touched the moat by himself.
Approaching the moat in a straight line from the direction of the east gate, it was impossible, Lin Kong had to go around the foot of the mountain on the left side, and go around a big circle to dive into the moat, which was the best way Lin Li could think of.
Ada and the others were injured, and it was impossible for Lin Kong to wait for an opportunity to steal the Phantom Stone, even if it was the smallest Phantom Stone, with Lin Kong's physique and strength, it would be difficult to successfully take it away.
So now he only needs to enter the moat, slowly approach the east gate, move the phantom stone placed near the moat into the river, and wait for Ling Wuxie and them to finish the battle and leave, and then find a way to dig out the phantom stone.
But the area around the Phantom Stone was the main battlefield for Ling Wuxian and the black-robed people, and a large number of stones had already filled the moat in front of the East Gate, and if you wanted to sneak close to the Phantom Stone from the river, the danger was not ordinary.
However, after thinking about it, Lin Kong still felt that it was worth a try, as far as Lin Kong knew, monks and martial arts powerhouses had never fought in front of mortals.
If it weren't for the fact that the phantom stone was too heavy this time and the Qiankun bag couldn't be collected, it is estimated that the two would not have fought in front of mortals.
Why monks and warriors avoid mortal battles, Lin Kong didn't know, but no matter what the reason, being able to let the two of them break this precedent is enough to prove that the Phantom Stone is extraordinary.
"Fight, no matter whether you can unlock the secret of the Phantom Stone in the future, as long as you have this thing in hand, it will definitely be of great use......" Lin Kong repeatedly consolidated his inner inference, in order to enhance his desire to obtain the Phantom Stone, and encouraged himself to step by step towards the dangerous place.
After half a pillar of incense, Lin Kong made a big circle, was almost hit by the strength several times, and finally dived into the moat, and slowly approached the east gate along the moat.
