Chapter 30: The Mastermind Behind the Scenes
"You say, we won't meet fierce beasts, I heard that the fierce beasts in this underworld are extremely cruel. ”
On the outskirts of the Underworld, a large number of people from the major tribes and races had poured in at this time.
Holding weapons in his hands, but they were all walking slowly and cautiously, a person from the Nanshan clan was sweating profusely, and asked the people around him.
"Hmph, coward, I really don't know how your Nanshan clan tribe became one of the four major tribes of Monster Island. ”
Not far away, a person from the Beishan tribe laughed a few times when he heard this.
When the people of the Nanshan clan heard this, they looked over angrily, but their faces were also full of disdain.
"Cut, you are bold, don't tremble your feet. The people of the Nanshan tribe also replied sarcastically.
Almost all the people who entered the periphery of the Underworld came to this place for the first time, the Underworld is a forbidden place, and no one usually dares to enter here, which naturally makes them fearful in their hearts.
"I heard that your young patriarch was killed by an unknown person named Ye Lang, it's ridiculous, and it's only the first day, I'm sorry. ”
The people of the Beishan clan fought back again, as if they felt that the quarrel could suppress the fear in their hearts.
"What do you say, you have the ability to do it again. ”
The people of the Nanshan clan were immediately angry, and they all looked at the people of the Beishan clan.
"What if I said it, you Nanshan tribe are rubbish. ”
Seeing that the two sides were about to quarrel, a middle-aged man suddenly walked in.
"What are you arguing about, are you here to quarrel?" The middle-aged man roared angrily, his voice was like thunder, and he directly suppressed the people on both sides.
Seeing that the people of the two tribes were quiet, the middle-aged man looked around and continued: "Speed up the search for me, and when it gets dark, I will have your good fruit to eat." ”
Hearing the words of the middle-aged man, the people of the two tribes were suddenly shocked, in this underworld, there was already suppression of cultivation, and there were a large number of fierce beasts, and at night, those fierce beasts came out to forage, and they had to feed them all.
Thinking of this, these people all shuddered, and they didn't dare to go back without permission, so they could only continue to search.
Roar...
Suddenly, in the woods not far from them, there was a roar of angry beasts.
Everyone was shocked and looked in that direction, only to see that the trees were falling continuously, accompanied by many screams.
Grunt...
Some timid people, seeing this situation, couldn't help but swallow saliva, but no one dared to go over.
The middle-aged man glanced at it, and there was also fear in his eyes, but he quickly covered it up.
"Stop looking, keep searching inside. ”
After speaking, the middle-aged man took a step back slightly, and only let the people of the two tribes continue to move forward.
The middle-aged man was not from these two tribes, he was from the Xishan tribe, passing by here, he saw the people of the two tribes quarreling, and he scolded him in order to show his might.
However, these people didn't go far forward, and countless runes suddenly appeared around them, and golden veins covered the ground, surrounding them.
"What is this?" someone asked aloud, not knowing what was going on.
"It's not good, this is a formation laid out using the detonation talisman, we were fooled. ”
Someone who knew the goods immediately yelled, but it was too late.
When they touched the formation, all the talismans had already emerged, densely packed and everywhere, surrounding them.
Rumble...
As the man's voice fell, all the talismans exploded at the same time, generating a huge force that lifted everyone out.
Bang bang bang ...
The body fell to the ground, and no one was intact, and the flesh was stronger, but it lost its limbs, or had a piece of flesh destroyed.
And more of them are directly dead, unrecognizable.
This explosion caused quite a stir, and all over the Underworld, people from all major races looked in this direction.
The middle-aged man stood in place, sweating profusely at this time, frightened at the same time, but also glad that he didn't step forward just now.
It's just that what makes him puzzled is that in this underworld, suppressing cultivation, whether it is a rune master or a formation mage, it is impossible to use aura, how can there be a killing array with a rune here.
After thinking about it for a long time, the middle-aged man didn't come up with a reason, and finally secretly withdrew from the underworld.
......
At this time, Ye Qingtian and the others were already approaching the center of the Underworld, resting on the edge of a river.
Ye Qingtian sat on a piece of grass, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said softly: "Those people chased in." ”
Hearing Ye Qingtian's words, Dongshan Shi, who had just taken a sip of water, put down the water bag in his hand, looked up and asked, "So fast?"
Xiang Niang also showed a worried look, after all, they are now in the underworld, and there are only three people, and the other party has three big tribes plus many races.
"Don't worry, if they can find us alive in this underworld, I won't be called Ye Lang. ”
Ye Qingtian said confidently, in fact, he was not called Ye Lang.
After entering the Underworld, along the way, as long as Ye Qingtian could communicate with the fierce beasts and birds of prey, he would inform them that a large amount of food would enter here next, so that they could get ready.
Therefore, during this period of time, most of the fierce birds and beasts in the underworld should be waiting for those tribal races to come in.
It didn't take long for the roar of fierce beasts to begin to sound in all directions, and some of them even shook the ground.
Dongshan Shi was taken aback, thinking that there was a fierce beast about to attack them, so he quickly stood up, but saw Ye Qingtian sitting there with a comfortable look and sorting out his clothes, not worried at all.
Roar...
An angry roar sounded not far from them, and I saw that in the woods, a hundred-zhang giant python suddenly jumped out, and with a roar, no less than ten people were shocked into the air, and then swallowed it in one gulp.
In the other direction, a fierce beast taller than the ancient trees in the forest, like a moving mountain, stood up, seemed to be able to dominate the sky with one hand, and the ground shook with one foot, but I don't know how many people died under that foot.
Dongshan Shi and Xiang Niang were already stunned, although they had been living on Monster Island, it was the first time they had seen such a huge beast, and they were all shocked and speechless.
"Haven't you seen a fierce beast in this mountain child?" Ye Qingtian looked at the surprised expressions of the two, and looked a little puzzled in his heart.
When he came to Xiang Niang's side, Ye Qingtian held a folding fan in his hand, gently tapped on Xiang Niang's little head, and said, "Don't look at it, let's go." ”
Xiangniang came back to her senses at this time, touched her head, stuck out her tongue at Ye Qingtian, and didn't complain anything.
Dongshan Shi also retracted his shocked mind at this moment, followed Ye Qingtian, and continued to walk towards the center of the Underworld.
"Dongshan Shi, are there a lot of people in these tribes? ”
On the way, Ye Qingtian asked Dongshan Stone.
In the past few days, he has been thinking that when he came to the Dongshan Clan, he found that the population inside was not very large, at most only a few hundred people.
However, the Dongshan tribe can be located in one of the four major tribes, which also shows that there are not many people in the other tribes.
However, when Ye Qingtian killed more than 100 people in the Dongshan Clan's tribe, it was simply a river of blood, plus the valley he killed in the valley outside the Underworld Forest before, aren't these people afraid of death?
Hearing Ye Qingtian's question, Dongshan Shi didn't seem to understand very much, and replied: "The population of our four major tribes is about the same, and they have been handed down from their ancestors, and they are only a few hundred people. There are more people from the rest of the race, they were originally cultivated by some demon beasts, but because they don't have Dao weapons, they always have to be afraid of us. ”
"Dao Weapon!"
Ye Qingtian groaned in a low voice, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he opened them after a long time.
"In this way, there should be a reason why these people want to snatch the Dao device at all costs, maybe someone behind them is directing them. Ye Qingtian suddenly said aloud.
Dongshan Shi was obviously puzzled by Ye Qingtian's words, he knew very well that almost all the major tribes were thinking of ways to seize the Dao weapons in each other's hands.
"How do you say this?" Dongshan Shi asked, at this time, even Xiang Niang stopped and looked at Ye Qingtian suspiciously.
Ye Qingtian didn't hide it, and said: "Think about it, there are really so many tribes and races that have joined forces to snatch the earth-shattering peak, even if they succeed, who will they belong to in the end?
"In addition, there are not many people in several tribes, and they still send people to this underworld to die so without scruples, are they not afraid that people will die, and the major races will take the opportunity to swallow them?"
Hearing Ye Qingtian's explanation, Dongshan Shi also fell into contemplation, what Ye Qingtian said was not wrong, even if the people of the other three major tribes wanted to get the earth-shattering Ding, it would be impossible to sacrifice human lives at such a cost.
On this monster island, the more the population, the stronger the power of the tribe or race, if the population of the three major tribes decreases, then the rest of the races with large populations will become stronger, and it will definitely be the people of the three major tribes who will suffer at that time.
It is impossible for the people of the three major tribes to think of this, so to speak. It's really possible that someone behind them is directing them to do this.
"I think the people behind them are completely in control of their life and death, and it is not easy for them to come forward in person to come up with such a solution. Ye Qingtian continued.
"In that case, that person has already obtained three other Dao weapons?" Dongshan Shi suddenly exclaimed, looking a little unacceptable.
Ye Qingtian nodded and replied: "It's very likely, but he hasn't shown up, and he just let the people of the three major tribes and major races come to snatch the Heaven-shattering Ding, which means that he can't appear at present, or rather, he can't appear at all." ”
"Who could that be?" Higashiyamashi pondered.
Ye Qingtian waved his hand, took a step and continued to walk forward, and said loudly at the same time: "Don't think about it, on this monster island, who else has the ability to make so many tribes and races obey him at the same time." ”
Combined with Ye Qingtian's words, Dongshan Shi thought about it carefully, and suddenly realized.
"You're saying they're behind the sealed corpses of ancient gods and demons. ”
"I hope my guess is wrong. ”
Ye Qingtian's voice sounded slowly, originally he was still thinking of using the Heaven-shattering Ding to block those ancient corpses and find a way to leave Monster Island, but if those ancient corpses got the other three Dao weapons, he would have to find another way.
At noon on the second day, Ye Qingtian and the others had already come to the center of the Underworld, as Ye Qingtian said, along the way, they did not see a single person from the major tribes and races, and all of them were killed or devoured by various powerful beasts on the periphery.
In the center of the underworld, the trees appear more dense, and the dense foliage covers the sky and the sun, and it is dark to walk in it in broad daylight.
"Chirp chirp..."
Suddenly, a shrill sound sounded around everyone's ears.
Xiang Niang and Dongshan Shi were startled at the same time, Ye Qingtian also frowned slightly, this black light is blind, and I really can't see what is calling.
Pinching out a finger, Ye Qingtian attracted the aura and quickly carved a talisman in front of him.
At first, there was a faint light on the talisman, and finally suddenly the light was in full bloom, flying high into the sky, illuminating the surroundings as if it were day.
"Chirp chirp..."
Directly in front of Ye Qingtian and the others, on the ground, there was a little guy staring at them with a high-spirited look, chattering wow, as if he was telling something.
The little guy was about the size of a palm, with a bunch of small transparent wings on his back, a pair of antennae on the top of his head, and a long tail behind his back.
"What kind of beast is this, a bit like a bee, but it doesn't seem to look like much?" Dongshan Shi looked at the little guy in front of him with curiosity.
"Chirp chirp..."
The little guy is the same as a human, with limbs, holding a miniature version of the Fang Tian painting halberd in his hand, and when he heard Dongshan Shi's words, he made a very fierce gesture and kept gesturing at Dongshan Shi.
"It's so cute. Xiang Niang was immediately amused by the little guy's movements, and unconsciously stepped forward.
Staring at Xiang Niang walking towards him, the little guy was suddenly startled, and retreated again and again, but he seemed to think that he couldn't have stage fright, and immediately began to wave the Fang Tian painting halberd in his hand again.
"Huh..."
Dongshan Shi wanted to stop Xiangniang, but was stopped by Ye Qingtian with a hand, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, it's okay." ”
The little guy continued to make all kinds of vicious movements, and the Fang Tian painting halberd in his hand was even more cheerful to wield again and again, but it didn't seem to have any effect, and he was directly slapped in his hand by Xiang Niang.
Falling in the palm of Xiang Niang's palm, the little guy immediately did it, and he was not going crazy, staring at Xiang Niang timidly.
"Hehehe, this little guy is so cute. Xiang Niang smiled sweetly, put her eyes on the side of her palm, and looked at it carefully.
Seeing Xiang Niang's smile just now, the little guy stared at Xiang Niang's eyes at this time, and he was no longer afraid, and lowered his head shyly and made a shy movement.
Ye Qingtian was behind, and he could even see the two blushes on this little guy's face.
"Hell, these days, even the gods of the underworld have become essences. Ye Qingtian said speechlessly, and then stepped forward.
"Hades?" Dongshan Shi clutched the back of his head, he really couldn't connect this crazy little thing with the Hades.
