Chapter Forty-Eight: Infighting in the Ranks

After killing the giant mantis spirit beast, a relaxed and happy look appeared on everyone's faces.

The people who were hiding behind Slave Thirteen could finally straighten up and catch their breath.

Nu Yingge put away the big spear forged by Kunyang Stone and jumped off the corpse of the mantis beast. Together with a group of old slave soldiers who had scavenged the mantis arms and mantis wings, they came to Slave Thirteen.

At this time, the slave thirteen was calm and relaxed, and his face was calm. But his mind was secretly on the dead mantis spirit beast corpse.

Because at the moment when Nu Yingge pierced the head of the mantis spirit beast with a big gun, Nu Thirteen saw an extremely rich purple aura erupt from the head wound of the mantis spirit beast!

That purple aura was exactly the same as the so-called "beast power" that overflowed from the ironclad cow in the cave of Zhonglangling Mountain before.

That's right.

That's the power of Lingyuan.

In the brain marrow of spirit beasts and demon beasts, there is an extremely rich spirit element power!

Ever since Nu Thirteen discovered that he could absorb this aura, he had never forgotten this purple aura.

......

Originally, Slave Thirteen wanted to get close to the body of the mantis spirit beast right now and absorb the power of its spirit element.

But Nu Yingge and the others gathered in front of him at this moment, so he didn't have a chance to do this for a while.

Nu Yingge squeezed a smile at Nu Thirteen and said, "This time, thanks to the Thirteen Brothers' perceptual combat skills, we can kill this beast so smoothly, and when I go back, I will give you a head credit!"

Nu Thirteen said lightly, "Thank you, senior." ”

With that, he continued to set his gaze on the corpse of the mantis spirit beast.

Nu Yingge, who had been watching him, found out about this situation, thinking that Slave Thirteen had taken a fancy to something on the mantis spirit beast. So he smiled and said, "This mantis spirit beast also has a pair of mantis arms and wings on its body, which can be forged into a few blades...... Thirteen brothers can give it to you if they are interested. ”

Nu Thirteen took advantage of this and said lightly, "The mantis arms and wings are still left to a few seniors, and I will go and see if there are any other valuable things on this beast." ”

With that, he walked through the crowd and came to the corpse of the mantis spirit beast.

Leaning down, put the palm of the hand on the injured part of the mantis spirit beast's head, and then secretly absorb the exercises, through the palm of the mantis spirit beast's brain marrow to absorb the power of the spirit element into the arm meridians, and then through the arm meridians in the dantian.

The process is very quick.

It only took about two or three breaths for Slave Thirteen to devour the mantis spirit beast's brain marrow spirit elemental qi!

To outsiders, his appearance was only a slight look at and touch the body of the mantis spirit beast.

After such a long time, Nu Thirteen gradually understood something.

He sensed something different from other cultivators.

For example, he can see the aura form, which others don't seem to see.

For example, now, he could see this purple spirit aura clearly, and absorb it to improve the power of cultivation.

Others, however, did not realize the value of this purple breath......

These discoveries made Nu 13 gradually understand that he was different.

This is Heaven giving him food alone, and it must be grasped well.

......

After Slave Thirteen devoured the Spirit Yuan Qi, he stood up from the corpse of the mantis spirit beast, walked back, smiled faintly at Nu Yingge and the others, and said, "Ancestor Yingge is right, there are no other valuable things on this mantis spirit beast's body. ”

Nu Yingge carefully looked the young man in front of him up and down, thoughtfully.

After a long time, he sighed in a deep voice, "The Thirteen Brothers not only cultivated into a power-type combat technique 'Brute Bull Gladiatorial Fighting', which is quite difficult to cultivate, but also possessed a flying speed comparable to that of a praying mantis spirit animal...... He is also proficient in the most difficult perceptual combat skills to cultivate...... It's not easy!"

Hearing Nu Yinggedi's praise and exclamation, Nu Thirteen just replied lightly, "It's just a small skill of carving insects, not enough to worry about." ”

Hearing the words of the thirteenth slave, several old slave soldiers around him said, "Little brother is really humble......

"yes, that's too modest......"

......

Nu Yingge pondered for a long time, suppressed everyone's praise with his own voice, and said, "I'm curious, what kind of perception skills the thirteen brothers have cultivated?......

Nu 13 still said lightly, "It's nothing, it's just a little skill to listen to the wind and argue." ”

"Listen to the wind, could it be that the thirteen brothers are practicing the "Listen to the Wind" combat skill?"

An old slave asked.

Hearing this name, Slave Thirteen's heart moved slightly.

Unexpectedly, someone took the initiative to give him a combat skill name.

He decided that in the future, if someone asked about the combat technique he had cultivated, he would say that the elephant force combat technique was "brute bull gladiatorial fighting", and that this unknown perception technique would be "listening to the wind"!

So Nu Thirteen smiled slightly and said, "Nothing can escape the eyes of the seniors...... The younger generation has indeed cultivated the "Listening to the Wind Technique", but they have just begun to master it and are not yet proficient. ”

"Little brother is really amazing!

"Yes, I've heard that it is extremely difficult to cultivate, and nine out of ten people can't practice!"

"That's right, the thirteen brothers actually practiced...... Sure enough, the talent is extraordinary......"

In the face of everyone's praise, Nu Thirteen was still flat.

Nu Yingge has been observing Nu Thirteen's every move.

He was also quite surprised.

What Nu Yingge was surprised was not that Nu Thirteen had cultivated such a difficult combat technique, but that Nu Thirteen had always had an unwavering temperament.

The face that does not change color and is not shocked by the landslide is really impressive......

He always felt that this young man was the son of a big family, but he was also very curious, why would a child of a big family participate in such a dangerous mission?

Is it for the sake of trial?

......

Nu Yingge still doesn't give up, he always wants to see some secrets in Nu Thirteen, otherwise, he will always not be at ease.

So he opened his mouth again and asked, "Can you take the liberty of asking the Thirteen Brothers again, what kind of combat skill is the flying escape technique that you just performed that is comparable to that of a praying mantis spirit beast?"

Slave Thirteen's brow furrowed.

He felt that Nu Yingge had asked a little too much......

So there was silence.

The wounded slave soldiers not far away noticed the change in Slave Thirteen's expression, so they squeezed into the crowd of old slave soldiers where Slave Yingge was, and came to Slave Thirteen's side, but raised his face to Slave Yingge opposite and asked, "What are you doing so much inquiring?!" The combat techniques and mental methods we practice are all personal privacy, why should we list them one by one for outsiders?"

Nu Yingge grimaced, looked at the wounded slave soldier, and said, "It's none of your business here!

The wounded slave soldier had long wanted to break with Nu Yingge, a guy with a human face and a beast's heart, but now that he found that Nu Thirteen was so powerful and had a backer, he had confidence in his heart.

So he crossed his waist and said to Nu Yingge, "Why is it none of my business? The thirteenth brother is my own brother, you inquire about his affairs, I can't get used to it, come out and say a few words, what's wrong?!"

When Nu Yingge heard that the wounded slave soldier claimed to be Slave Thirteen's own brother, he glanced at Slave Thirteen. Seeing that Slave Thirteen was still calm, he sneered at the wounded slave soldier, "A weak person like you can only survive by this kind ......of random relationship!"

When the wounded slave soldier heard this, his face turned red with anger.

He sneered, "I admit that I am weak...... But you Nu Ying Ge is not much stronger! As the leader of the tenth-level cultivation of the Naling Realm, you actually didn't perceive the danger approaching, and buried the lives of the three slave brothers in vain! If it weren't for my thirteenth brother's action, I'm afraid that even more of our big guys would die! You are not worthy of being the leader at all!"

Now that the skin of his face has been torn, the wounded slave soldier will not save face for the servile shadow, and speak at this time, poking at his sore spots.

Nu Yingge looked at the wounded slave soldier and roared, "Presumptuous!!"

This roar used the power of cultivation, and it shook the mountains and forests, and everyone was terrified.

The wounded slave soldier's face turned pale with fright, and he hurriedly hid behind the slave thirteen.

But he still refused to admit defeat, hid behind Slave Thirteen and said, "Am I not right?"

Seeing Nu Thirteen's calm face, and feeling the questioning eyes of the old slave soldiers around him, Nu Yingge snorted coldly and said loudly, "Joke! How can I not detect danger......

The wounded slave soldier now has Slave Thirteen to help him, so he is no longer afraid of Slave Yingge, and he has to be unforgiving at this time.

He sneered, "Since you have discovered the danger, you don't tell the warning in advance! You really have bad intentions! You want to accompany a few more lives and earn you spiritual jade!!"

As soon as the wounded slave soldier said this, the other slave soldiers, even the old slave soldiers, looked ugly.

The hidden shadows of some missions, their old slave soldiers know better than anyone else.

But on weekdays, it doesn't involve your own safety, and you can make more profits with other people's lives, so you will turn a blind eye.

However, if Nu Yingge was going to hit them with his mind, then it wouldn't work.

So an old slave soldier looked at Slave Yingge, his eyes flashed with coldness, and he said in a deep voice, "Lord Yingge, you can't do anything too much...... We are not weak lambs to be slaughtered!"

Seeing that his authority and credibility began to waver, Nu Yingge's face was gloomy as if it were about to freeze.

He looked at the wounded slave soldiers behind Slave Thirteen, and his eyes flashed with murderous intent.

The wounded slave had already been released, and he shouted, "What?!, do you want to kill me?!, come, don't hide and play tricks! Do it now?!......"

Although he shouted loudly, he hid deeper behind Slave Thirteen.

At this moment, Nu Thirteen frowned and turned his head, and said in a deep voice to the wounded slave soldiers behind him, "Don't say any more. ”

Seeing that his backer had spoken, the wounded slave soldier had no choice but to nod with a smile on his face, "Okay thirteenth brother, I'll listen to you!"

Stopping the wounded slave soldiers, Slave Thirteen looked at the murderous Slave Yingge and said, "Before the mission is completed, everyone is suspicious of each other and causes infighting, which is really an unwise move. As a team leader, Lord Shadow Ge has a lot of experience, and we all have to rely on you. I hope that Lord Ying Ge can be magnanimous and not worry about the juniors, and everyone will work together to deliver this car of spirit jade ore to the Refining Valley as soon as possible. ”

Nu Thirteen's words gave Nu Yingge a step down. It also eases the atmosphere that has fallen to freezing.

Although he understands that the purpose of the wounded Slave Soldier tearing his face with Shadow Slave is to hope that he can kick Shadow Shadow and become the new backbone of the team.

But after all, it was the first time for Slave Thirteen to participate in the mission, and he had not yet figured out some things, if there was a mistake and the mission failed, he would not only end up complaining, but also not get the due reward of the spirit jade.

Therefore, although Nu Thirteen performed very well in this mission, the limelight even overshadowed the leader Nu Yingge.

But he didn't want to replace Nuyinggo.

He came to participate in the mission this time with only one purpose, and that was to earn two thousand spirit jades.

......

Seeing Slave Thirteen talking like this, Nu Yingge's face softened slightly, and said, "What Brother Thirteen said is right! We can't engage in infighting on our own and affect the completion of the task......

With that, he continued, "But...... I also admit that in predicting the crisis of the mantis spirit beast, there is no thirteen brothers in time for you...... I hope that you will use the "Listening to the Wind" skill to detect the crisis during the rest of the journey, and let everyone know immediately if there is any trouble. ”

Nu Thirteen nodded lightly and said, "Lord Yingge, please rest assured, I will do my best." ”

Nu Yingge nodded and said, "Okay!"

Then he shouted to the crowd and the slaves, "It has been a long time!

After saying that, Nu Yingge stepped on the back of the ironclad ox, pulled the reins of the iron chain that pierced the iron ox's pipa bone, and then ordered the slaves to drive the ox cart forward.

The remaining fifty-five slave soldiers also mounted their horses and followed around the ox cart.

Slave Thirteen also stepped on the horse's back and walked slowly behind.

At this time, he was silently looking at his dantian.

After discovering that the brain marrow spirit spirit beast was devoured by the spirit spirit beast's brain marrow spirit elemental qi, the third cyclone of the dantian spirit qi in the body began to appear a white cyclone prototype, which was more condensed than when it was in the middle of Langling.

As long as he obtained enough spirit jade, he could break through to the third layer of the Naling realm in one fell swoop!

I didn't expect that the spirit yuan qi in the brain marrow of the spirit beast could be of such great help to the advancement of cultivation.

In fact, Nu Thirteen didn't know that the brain marrow and inner pill of spirit beasts and demon beasts were the top-grade materials used to refine pills among the immortal clans.

It's just that these alchemy materials must go through the complicated refining methods of the immortal alchemists before they can become pills that cultivators can absorb and refine.

......

Just as Slave Thirteen was concentrating on the cyclone of the dantian aura, the wounded slave soldier drove his horse close and ran to talk to him.

"Thirteen Brothers......

Slave Thirteen was interrupted from his mental state, so he frowned and opened his eyes.

This wounded slave soldier relied on his own support to openly turn his face with the slave Yingge, and he was really deliberately making trouble for him.

Therefore, Ling Nu Thirteen was slightly displeased with it.

But since you promised to protect him, it's not good to give up halfway.

Besides, Nu Thirteen really couldn't get used to Nu Yingge's practice of exchanging human lives for spirit jade, so he could only continue to protect this person.

At this moment, when he saw the wounded slave soldiers coming over, he asked lightly, "What's the matter?"

The wounded slave soldier walked a little closer and said, "Thirteenth brother...... What a good momentum the little brother has created for you, everyone is already convinced of you, you can kick out the slave Yingge in one fell swoop and become the leader. Brother Thirteen, why didn't you seize this opportunity?......"

Nu Thirteen glanced at him and said, "I have no intention of being a "team leader", you don't have to worry about it for me. ”

The wounded slave soldier continued to lower his voice and said, "I know that the thirteenth brother has a good heart...... But as the saying goes, you can't have the heart to harm people, and you can't have the heart to defend people! You see that Nu Yingge does not save him when he sees death, and hides the casualties of the slave soldiers and greeds for spiritual jade, you will know that he is by no means a good type...... Now Brother Thirteen, your method of predicting spirit beasts in advance seems to have also attracted the attention of Nu Yingge! You are tantamount to roasting yourself on a blazing fire, this up-and-coming bird deserves it, and it is likely that he will end up with his life!"

He knew that if he wanted to rely on Slave Thirteen to protect himself, the most important way to do it once and for all was to get rid of Slave Shadow Ge by the hand of Slave Thirteen.

Then, the best strategy is to sow discord.

Slave Thirteen's nature doesn't have much of a city.

But he's not stupid either.

Otherwise, living in the slave cave all these years, I would have been knocked out of my bones and sucked the marrow a long time ago, and I would not even have any slag left to eat.

Slave Thirteen didn't want to be a knife used by the wounded slave soldier to borrow a knife to kill people, and he also had to guard against the hidden arrows of the slave who had been wounded, as the wounded slave soldier said.

A good person can do it properly, but he must not be a stupid person who is gullible and trusts others!

This is the survival of Slave Thirteen.

So, Nu Thirteen really cared a little about the words of the injured slave soldiers.

After a long time, Slave Thirteen asked in a low voice, "Then you say, what should I do?"

Although this wounded slave soldier has scheming, he is definitely the one who is wholeheartedly on this mission and does not want Slave Thirteen to fail.

Because Slave Thirteen is his backer.

With this level figured out, Slave Thirteen planned to listen carefully to the words of the wounded slave soldier.

Maybe it might help.

The wounded slave soldier lowered his voice and said, "Nu Yingge is a villain who is jealous of his talents...... Thirteenth brother, the combat skills you have cultivated, as well as the perceptual wind listening technique, are all above his strength. Nu Yingge will definitely be jealous of you, Brother Thirteen!"

Slave Thirteen pretended not to have any city and asked, "So what?"

Seeing this, the wounded slave soldiers were helpless. "Haven't you heard of Huai Biqi's crime, I'm worried that Nu Yingge will kill you to maintain your prestige, or force you to say a way to perceive danger, which is not good for you!"

Slave Thirteen thought for a moment, "What you said also makes sense...... It's just that I guess he still needs me along the way, not only will he not hurt me, but if there is danger, he may take the initiative to protect me. However, it's hard to say when you're in a safe place. ”

The wounded slave soldier saw that he had moved Slave Thirteen, so he continued to hit the railroad while it was hot: "Sooner or later, you have to get to a safe place, why don't you plan ahead and start first?!"

Nu Thirteen stared at him, his eyes flickered, and he thought to himself, "You really can't underestimate anyone...... This guy looks greedy for life and afraid of death, and his strength is too weak, but the scheming and ruthlessness in his bones are really not ordinary......"

Slave Thirteen became interested, and he asked in a low voice: "Could it be that you have any plans, you might as well tell me about it." ”

The wounded slave soldier smiled mysteriously, "If the thirteenth brother can trust me, don't worry about it for the time being, and I'll talk about it when the time comes." ”

This guy actually sells off.

So, Slave Thirteen had no choice but to nod silently.

......
