Finding the clues of the Night Pearl, both of them were very excited.

Gu Shengchao summoned his sword and stood up: "Brother Tian, wait a minute, I'll come when I go." ”

"Wait, let's go together." Tian Mang threw out his sword, hovered in the night sky, hovered under his feet, and jumped straight from his horse.

The two of them walked with their swords and flew towards the top of the peak one after another.

The wind is hunting, and the winter cold is even more biting, and it is inevitable that you will feel warmer with your arms and chest.

Looking up, the light from the gap loomed, as if something was blocking it from time to time.

Towards the summit, the light in the stone crevices suddenly disappeared, replaced by an undulating aura hidden behind the cliff.

"Be careful, there's something up there." Gu Shengchao gestured with his hand and reminded Tian Mang.

The two of them were on guard, watching out for movement behind the cliff.

When I was about to get there, a black figure suddenly appeared, more than a person tall, and its shrill cry was extremely terrifying.

A pair of wings spread out and fanned towards Gu Shengchao and Tian Mang.

The two of them stood on the sword and hovered up, and the sudden cyclone disturbance caused them to nearly fall from the sword, and they were crumbling and losing control in the chaotic air current.

They spread out in unison, swooping down as fast as they could, away from the center of the vortex.

After controlling his body, the Ancient Saint Chao Imperial Sword slowly rose again, and finally saw the appearance of this guy who suddenly appeared.

The huge body is stronger than that of an eagle, and it looks like a night owl, but it is more than ten times larger than an ordinary night owl, and its cry is even more poignant.

When the night owl chirps, it has a short mouth with a hook that is raised, and the night pearl is hidden in it.

Gu Shengchao remembered the python he and Wan Ruo had seen on the Snake Island in the Valley of the Four Kings, and the Naidan that he had vomited at night was also the same size.

Once the animals in the wild have learned the method of breathing and practicing qi, they will far surpass their own kind in terms of body size and agility.

This night owl should have nourished the night pearl as his own inner pill, and just now he spit out the night pearl from time to time during the cultivation process, which made the two of them see it.

The arrival of the two of them disturbed it, and in a fit of rage they appeared and attacked them.

Gu Shengchao and Tian Mang glanced at each other, and they outflanked each other from both sides, and when the night owl approached, they each raised their swords and rushed over in the air.

The night owl stood on a boulder on the edge of the cliff, staring at the two of them with big round eyes, and when he saw the sword slashing, he jumped down, spread his wings and flew away silently in the night.

"Boom!"

Gu Shengchao and Tian Mang couldn't hold it, and swung their swords to smash the boulder, and the two stood side by side on the cliff.

The deep night sky was silent, and there was nothing but a starry sky, but they knew that the night owl would not let them go.

Gu Shengchao sensed that there was a breath behind him rushing at high speed, and warned, "It's in the back." ”

As soon as he turned around, a pair of sharp claws reached out of thin air and grabbed at the top of the two people's heads.

Fortunately, he was prepared in advance, and he was able to escape, and the sharp claw tips slid against the scalps of the two of them, and did not hurt them.

The night owl came and went freely and silently in the darkness, and then disappeared in the blink of an eye.

The two came to the top of the peak, looking at the dark night sky, and no one dared to act rashly, lest they be broken by the night owls one by one.

Don't dare to go with the sword, in the deep twilight is the world of night owls, and they can only be beaten passively.

Knowing that the night owls were watching them, the ancient saint Chao couldn't sense the other party's existence. Tian Mang opened his eyes wide and looked around, but he didn't find the figure of the night owl.

It blends in perfectly with the night.

"Here we are."

Gu Shengchao once again sensed the existence of the night owl, and turned around with a sword.

How could it be that the night owl had superb flying skills, and it dodged with one wing, and the sword qi only broke half of its feathers.

"It's a pity." Gu Shengchao stomped his feet regretfully.

After eating a trench and growing wise, the two of them changed their strategies and stood back to back, slowly moving their bodies, so that no matter which direction the night owl attacked from, they could find it in time.

However, the night owl seemed to fly away, and it was not seen for a long time.

"Most of the animals who can practice qi are tyrannical, and they are very easy to hold grudges, this night owl will definitely not go far, and will definitely come back to trouble the two of us." Tian Mang reminded Gu Shengchao not to take it lightly.

"It's there." Tian Mang found the target in time.

As soon as the words fell, a small gray and black dot flashed in the dark night sky, and in a blink of an eye, it was close.

The two of them were about to raise their swords to slash, but when two large rocks hit their chests, the night owl spread its wings and fled.

The night owl was fast, and the stone was more powerful by inertia, and the two of them dodged sideways.

"Boom!" The summit was full of jagged rocks, and the stones were shattered.

Night Stalkers learn to grab rocks to attack, which is shocking.

The sneak attack failed, and the night owl disappeared without a trace, but the two knew that it must be waiting for the next opportunity.

After waiting for a long time without the night owl attacking, the two of them stayed awake all night and were so highly nervous and mentally exhausted.

Perhaps, the night stalker didn't wait for the two to collapse first.

"Brother Tian, it's not a way for the two of us to go on like this, this night owl is too alert, or you hide it first, and I'll lure it to appear alone." Now that they are on the passive, Gu Shengchao wants to turn the situation around.

"No, it's too dangerous to do this, you're a guest from afar, and if you need bait, I'll come." Tian Mang directly refused.

Gu Shengchao didn't speak, put away his sword and iron arm to protect his body, and a layer of faint golden armor condensed on the surface of his skin, which was hard and did not affect his activities.

"I have this invulnerability, what am I worried about?" Gu Shengchao showed Tian Mang.

Tian Mang stroked it, revealing an envious expression: "There is such kung fu in this world, and this is the first time I have seen it." ”

"I'm not afraid of knives and guns, the night owl can't help me, Brother Tian can rest assured now!"

Tian Mang nodded in agreement and advised: "I'm hiding in the shadows, you just need to catch it when the night owl pounces, and I can kill it with one sword." ”

Found a relatively flat place, Tian Mang hid behind the rocks, and Gu Shengchao lay on his back on the peak.

Although the iron arm magic skill is good, the only flaw is that it shields perception, and can only be observed with eyes, limiting the advantage of preemptive strike, and only lying down can you see the state of the night sky as much as possible.

After a while, the night owl appeared.

It grabbed the stone with each of its two claws and threw it at Gu Shengchao.

One piece was smashed off, and the other piece just hit the ancient saint's super lower abdomen, and there was an iron arm to protect the body, but it was no problem.

Seeing that Gu Shengchao was motionless, the night owl circled a few times before falling to the side. He tilted his head and stared at Gu Shengchao for a long time, and then he ran to him with his claws tentatively.

The ancient saint grabbed the night owl's claws like lightning with his hand, and with a "click", he broke its legs.

"Quack ......"

Like a baby crying, the night owl let out a miserable cry, resounding in the sky and spreading to every corner of the vast desert.

The night owl doesn't feel good, and spreads its wings and is about to fly away.

Tian Mang arrived in time and swung his sword to cut off two of its wings.

Gu Shengchao slammed his fist into the night owl's chest, and it fell the rocks and rolled over, letting out a terrible scream.

Tian Mang cut off its neck with a sword, and the night owl didn't move.

Breaking open the sharp and curved beak of the night owl, and not finding the night pearl, Tian Mang used a dagger to cut open its abdomen, and a smooth and bright bead rolled out.

Tian Mang carefully held the night pearl in the palm of his hand, and the night sky shone brightly.

"Shine the night" is the name of this night pearl, and it is really worthy of its name at night at the moment, and it is not an exaggeration at all.

Tian Mang carefully took the Night Pearl into his arms to ensure that it would not fall.

But he saw that the south was dusty, and at least a hundred horsemen were rushing towards this side.

"Oops, found out." Tian Mang secretly screamed that it was not good.

It's no wonder that the terrible cry of the night owl just now had attracted people's attention, and Tian Mang held up the night pearl and revealed it again, and it was strange if it was not discovered.

The two of them hurried to the bottom of the peak, untied the four tethered horses, and took down some water bladders and food at will.

"Drive!"

Tian Mang shook the whip and whipped it hard, the horse was in pain, and the group of two galloped towards the east and west respectively.

"Let's go north."

Tian Mang was familiar with the road and led the ancient saint to run north.

I didn't dare to stop all the way, until the sun was three poles, and the mount under Tian Mang's crotch could only pace because of excessive fatigue, and the two of them stopped.

Gu Shengchao's mount is a BMW on the grassland, named Chasing the Wind, although the speed does not decrease, it is also tired and out of breath.

As soon as Tian Mang dismounted, his mount collapsed to the ground and could not move. Tian Mang cut some withered yellow grass and sent it to the horse's mouth, then he raised his head and chewed slowly, but he didn't want to get up.

Fortunately, the two of them took some water bladders and food respectively, and sat opposite each other on the grass to eat together.

"How long will it take us to get back on a detour?" Gu Shengchao asked.

Tian Mang closed his eyes and thought for a moment: "At least half a month." The hussar general has been alarmed, that is, he left the desert and returned the way he came, and it is estimated that the officers and soldiers will also check along the way. Although the orbs were given to the real concubine in the end, we handed them over to her with our own hands, and we gave them through layers of relationships, and the final effect was a world of difference. ”

After eating and resting for a while, Tian Mang pulled up his mount and coaxed obediently: "Good baby, we have a chasing soldier behind us, we can't rest yet, there is a mountain to hide not far to the west, can we rest when we get there?" ”

The horse seemed to understand him, and raised its head and trampled on the grass with all his might.

The two of them got back on their horses, this time not galloping again, and let the horse's feet drive in the direction that Tian Mang had identified.

At dusk, I finally saw the mountains in the distance, and sparse woods appeared nearby.

As we move on, the woods gradually grow thicker.

Tian Mang's mount continued to run, and he couldn't hold on any longer, no matter how he urged him, he just refused to move forward.

There was no way, so the two had to lead the horse towards the woods.

I won't be able to make it to the bottom of the mountain tonight, and I hope to find a suitable place to rest in the woods.

At this time, there was a faint sound of horses' hooves behind them, and the two led the horses into the woods quickly.

In a short time, the horse team galloped past, but more than ten people followed more than thirty horses, and it seemed that they were determined to catch them.

After the two discussed, they spent the night in the woods, and found a suitable branch to jump on and sleep.

Tian Mang snored like thunder after a while, and Gu Shengchao was worried that the group of people would search for him, so he didn't dare to sleep.

After about half an hour, the horse team turned back, but fortunately, the sound of the horses galloping covered everything, and Tian Mang's snoring could not be heard at all.

When the horse team was completely far away, Gu Shengchao fell asleep peacefully.
