Chapter 41: Assault
Because of the smell of the headwind, coupled with the familiarity with the road just walked, the downward detection is much farther than the upward exploration, and you can perfectly "see" the scene more than 1,000 meters away. At this time, Zhou Aiping and his entourage were about 1,000 meters away.
Tian Xu whispered to Ziyan to pay attention to hiding her figure and breathing, and to restrain her breath to prevent her from being discovered by both parties. He himself can hide well, and it's not so easy to find. The large rock where they were hiding was less than 50 meters away from the way up the mountain. Although this distance could not delay the attack of a high-level Ning Dan master for a few seconds, it was enough to hide his aura, unless the other party also had a sense of smell like his.
Taking advantage of the time that Zhou Aiping and the others had not yet arrived, he probed the bottom of the cliff behind him again. The depth of this cliff is about 50 meters, and after going down, it is a relatively steep and smooth slope, and with his ability, if he is not injured, he can try to jump off to escape. However, at this time, his sternum and ribs were broken in many places, and if he jumped directly, it was not very likely that he would not die.
His "gaze" crossed the cliff and extended a little farther away, and found that from the edge of the cliff, thirty meters away, there was a long slope with a relatively gentle slope, which finally merged with the steep slope below the cliff. If he can get there, slide down a steep slope, and then control his body to move a few dozen meters into the distance, which is the saddle between this snow-capped mountain and a mountain next to it, and he can't detect the situation when he crosses this saddle.
"Maybe it's a way to escape. He told himself secretly.
At this time, Zhou Aiping and his entourage had already approached his hiding place, and then headed towards the mountain. He suddenly thought that judging from the coercion detected just now, the realm of the ambushers would not be lower than the middle level of Ning Dan, and the number of people was unknown, and didn't Zi Wuji and Ouyang Jie just pass by here? Could it be that they were going to ambush Aunt Zhou and the others? If this was really the case, then their main goal was about to come out, and only Zhou Aiping was worthy of them to carry out the ambush so deliberately. And if you want to deal with Ying Song and Daoxian monks, you only need Zi Wuji alone, and you don't need any ambush, you can easily win by shooting directly.
Do you want to remind Aunt Zhou? Tian Xu was a little hesitant. Before he could make a decision, Zhou Aiping suddenly stopped her figure and pulled the two people beside her: "It's not good, there's an ambush up there!" she reminded in a loud voice. At this time, she was probably less than 100 meters above Tian Xu and them, and her powerful spiritual power had obviously discovered the enemy above.
Ying Song and Monk Daoxian stopped by Zhou Aiping's side left and right, and when she focused her attention on the hillside again, a strange change occurred!
Ying Song and Dao Xian each slapped a palm, and hit her left and right sides at the same time, and with a bang, Zhou Aiping was unsuspecting and was knocked down. But Ying Song and Daoxian monk, who attacked her with their palms, fell almost simultaneously less than a second after she fell, and the three of them rolled down the hillside like gourds on the ground.
Tian Xu was stunned by this astonishing change, Ying Song actually attacked Aunt Zhou together with the Daoxian monk of Wutai Mountain! In this way, it must be Zi Wuji and Ouyang Jie who are ambushing on the mountain.
The place where Tian Xu and Ziyan are hiding is much lower than the path up the mountain. The three who fell to the ground rolled down for a short while, then turned around and rolled towards them, judging by the trend, they should have rolled to the bottom of the cliff next to the big rock. In this unconscious situation, even a cultivator at the high level or peak of Ning Dan could be directly thrown to death.
Tian Xu's olfactory image was no longer hidden at this time, and he nervously observed the three people who slid down above. He found that Ying Song and Dao Xian had completely lost their breath of life, and it was estimated that they had been killed by Zhou Aiping's blow. And although Zhou Aiping is weak, she is still conscious.
Just when he had just found out the approximate injury of Zhou Aiping, Zhou Aiping also felt his presence, and a cold divine consciousness was like a dagger, splitting along the divine consciousness that he had launched olfactory imaging, and the attack was extremely powerful. Tian Xu was shocked and shouted, "Aunt Zhou, I'm Tian Xu!"
As if hearing his voice, or sensing the kindness in his heart, the spiritual thorn sent out by Zhou Aiping stopped a few feet in front of Tian Xu's body, and then turned into nothingness. Under the deterrence of this thorn, Tian Xu was already covered in cold sweat.
Just when he shouted that, two people had already pounced out from behind the high hill on the hillside, with an indomitable momentum, and the terrain was downhill, the speed of the two was like an eagle diving attack, coming quickly, and in a blink of an eye, they were already close to Ying Song and Dao Xian, who were lagging behind.
One of the people who pounced down slowed down slightly, reached out and grabbed the two people who were rolling down, and was led down for more than ten meters before stopping.
The other person directly bypassed the two and threw himself at Zhou Aiping.
Just as he was approaching Zhou Aiping, suddenly a thousand catties fell to the ground, his body staggered, and he almost fell. The long sword in his hand slammed into the ground, barely steady. It is estimated that he has just been hit by Zhou Aiping's sharp and abnormal spiritual attack, but I don't know how badly injured he is.
After a slight delay, Zhou Aiping had already rolled down a few meters in front of Tian Xu. He didn't think much about it, jumped up, hugged Zhou Aiping, and shouted "Go!" and rushed to the end of the cliff in the distance.
The person who pounced on Zhou Aiping was less than twenty meters away from Tian Xu when he landed, and the smell on his body had clearly indicated his identity, he was the head of the Kunlun faction - Zi Wuji.
As Tian Xu jumped out, Ziyan also followed behind him, quickly running forward. Zi Wuji was injured by Zhou Aiping's spiritual attack, and he couldn't make any more moves for a while, so he could only shout briefly: "Stop them!"
At this time, Ouyang Jie, who was still stopping on the hillside to check Ying Song's situation, heard this, and his long body swooped towards Tian Xu like a flying eagle again.
Ziyan saw that Tian Xu was holding Zhou Aiping with both hands, unable to fight back, her black short stick appeared in her hand and pointed straight at Ouyang Jie's ribs. Ouyang Jie was about to knock Ziyan down with one palm, when he suddenly recognized her weapon, so he changed his palm to grasp, and as soon as his four fingers put on her short stick, he pulled the short stick to the side, and the blade of Ziyan's sword that popped out of the short stick also missed at the same time. With this grasp, his aura rushed into Ziyan's body through the short stick, knocking her down and sealing her meridians at the same time.
