the periphery of the North and South Theaters;

Shao Jie and the two Jindan nuns walked cautiously along a small stream.

"Shao Zhenjun, Senior Brother Xue disappeared here before. One of the nuns pointed to the blood stains on a large boulder with a nervous expression.

Shao Jie approached, reached out and tapped the blood on the boulder, and found that the blood had not dried up.

"How long have you been gone?"

"Less than a pillar of incense. Before, the three of us noticed that there was movement in this direction, so we chased after it with all our might. Senior Brother Xue was faster than us, and he didn't know what he saw here, so he screamed miserably, and when we arrived—"

As the nun spoke, she suddenly felt a pain in her abdomen, and the whole person fell backwards quickly, she looked down and screamed in shock.

"Ahh

Shao Jie was shocked, this black shadow came too fast. She didn't notice the divine consciousness she released at all, and the nun in front of her was swept away.

"Liu Xia!"

"Senior Sister Liu!"

Shao Jie flashed and chased after her, but she didn't want to take a few steps out, and there was a scream behind her.

"Shao Zhenjun save me!" the screams of the other female cultivator stopped abruptly.

Shao Jie turned around and didn't see anything.

A panic that had never existed before came out of her heart, and Shao Jie rushed in the direction where the previous female cultivator had disappeared, but found nothing.

What frightened her even more was that the trail of dragging on the ground always stopped abruptly.

She didn't know if the shadow was a monk or something.

"Liu Xia, Danluo!" Shao Jie circled around and returned to the side of the stream, the river gurgling and crystal clear, reflecting the white clouds that made her dizzy.

Suddenly, Shao Jie felt a movement under her feet, and she flew up.

The place where she was standing suddenly exploded, and a black shadow shot out.

Shao Jie sensed unprecedented danger and entered her space as fast as she could.

Through the space, she could see a large, wriggling tongue shooting up from outside.

The purple tongue was densely covered with slime, and it shot like a sharp arrow, piercing into the air and then sinking into the earth as fast as it could, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Shao Jie's face turned pale, and when she came back to her senses, she found that her palms were sweaty.

She hadn't been so scared in years.

At this time, another person appeared by the creek.

The person who came was a clear man wearing a blue robe.

He rushed to the hole in the ground, and was about to jump down when Shao Jie suddenly came out of the space.

"Kiyoki!"

Qingmu was startled by the sudden appearance of Shao Jie, and just as he was about to attack, he saw Shao Jie's face clearly.

"Xiaojie, why are you here?"

"It's dangerous here, you come with me first. Shao Jie motioned for Qingmu to leave the place.

Kiyoki glanced down at the large hole in the ground and nodded.

The two of them moved away from the place and came to an open meadow.

Shao Jie said: "You also came here because you heard about the North and South battlefields?"

"Yes, word has spread that the four Town Guardian Spirit Monarchs were attacked here. A friend of mine's sister is also missing here, so let's look for it. Qingmu handed over a piece of jade slip: "Xiaojie, have you ever seen her?"

Shao Jie took the jade slip and saw the delicate and lovely female cultivator on the portrait.

"She's Dongfang Jia'er?"

"You know?"

"I don't know her, but I know your friend Dongfang Zhuo. ”

"It's him!" Kiyoki asked again, "Have you seen his sister here?" ”

"Nope. The two Jindan disciples of my fellow sect were also arrested. Even I'm almost—" Shao Jie frowned, a little apprehensive when she thought of Fang Cai's scene.

"Take, you see?"

"Yes, that thing is underground. All I saw was an extremely long tongue, and I guessed that its body should be a high-level demon beast. Shao Jie looked in the direction of the North and South Battlefields, and she faintly felt that this thing seemed to be coming from the fairy spirit of the North and South Battlefields.

Following Shao Jie's gaze, Qingmu also guessed a little.

He was just about to speak, but he saw something suddenly appear on the ground behind Shao Jie.

"Xiaojie, be careful!" Qingmu teleported over, pulling Shao Jie and flying up.

Shao Jie reacted and attacked downwards suddenly.

"It's that big tongue!" exclaimed Shao Jie, this time, she was closer, and she could clearly see the flesh and dense barbs on the tongue.

"Woo-" The big tongue below was hit by Shao Jie's spell, and an extremely sharp cry suddenly came from the ground.

This scream was harsh and unpleasant, and it also caused a sharp pain in the consciousness of Shao Jie and Qingmu.

Qingmu only felt that his brain was in chaos, and the whole person was in front of him, and he fell from the sky all of a sudden.

"Qingmu!" Shao Jie covered her head, and she grabbed Qingmu.

But he didn't want the big tongue under him to jump up again, and he rolled up the clear wood and dragged it down as quickly as possible.

Shao Jie, who was pulling Qingmu, sank, slammed into the ground, and was dragged on the ground to slide at great speed.

Shao Jie subconsciously wanted to hide in the space, because she found that the 'big demon beast' below was extremely good at divine sense attacks, and her head began to be chaotic.

But Shao Jie didn't let go, Qingmu was her and Zhaozhao's young friend, and she couldn't leave him alone and hide in the space at such a time.

The head hurt more and more, and Shao Jie screamed.

Kiyoki's body sank and was dragged into the ground.

At this moment, the void was suddenly opened.

The white light flashed.

An even sharper, piercing sound rang out from underground, and the big tongue broke in two, and the lower half instantly retracted into the ground and disappeared.

Shao Jie narrowed her eyes, and against the light, she saw a female cultivator in colorful clothes running towards her at great speed.

"Zhao, Zhao!" Shao Jie's tense spirit relaxed, and she fell into a coma.

Cheng Zhaozhao and Shao Feng rushed over and helped Shao Jie.

"Xiaojie, wake up!" Shao Feng's eyes were full of worry, and he hurriedly gave her the pill.

Cheng Zhaozhao got up, came to the huge hole, and dragged out the monk who was hanging upside down with half of his body.

"It's Kiyoki!"

Cheng Zhaozhao didn't expect this person to be Qingmu.

Since she learned that something had happened in the northern and southern battlefields, she said goodbye to Jun Xin and left the Suiyang faction. On the way to the north-south battlefield, he met Shao Feng, and he and Shao Jie made an appointment to meet here in advance.

But they didn't want to, as soon as they came, they saw such a thrilling scene.

Cheng Zhaozhao gave Qingmu the pill, so he had time to look at the things he had chopped down.

A scarlet color into the eyes, fishy and disgusting.

"This big tongue can't be the 'culprit' that attacked the four Town Guardian Spirit Monarchs, right?"

Shao Feng glanced at it, stabbed it with his sword, and heard a 'squeak' sound from his tongue, and then it shook violently.

Cheng Zhaozhao felt sick to his stomach and got goosebumps.

The next moment, I saw a white gas emanating from this big tongue.

"Shao Feng, be careful!" Cheng Zhaozhao quickly pulled Shao Feng behind him and erected a barrier of immortal qi in front of him.

When the white gas dissipated, the big tongue withered at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in the blink of an eye, it became something as dry as a rattan.
