203 Sinister

On the second floor of Earth Flame Mountain, the battle situation in Fire Raven Hill was extremely tragic.

Thousands of treasure hunters flocked to the Fire Raven Hill and fought wildly with the Fire Raven in the middle of the hill.

The Qi Refining Stage cultivators held spirit swords and spirit swords, slashed at the swarm of fire crows that swooped down, or cast various spells, and blasted them into the air.

Among this group of treasure hunters, there are many foundation building monks, although the foundation building monks can fly with a sword, but the sky is entrenched by a flock of fire crows, and they don't dare to fly, so they can only attack the fire crows with their weapons.

Although there were fire-worshipping monks in the rear, the group of treasure hunters was still very scattered. Except for the monks who were familiar with the team, the entire group of monks was almost fighting on their own, and there was no discipline to speak of.

As soon as they engaged the fire crow group, the treasure hunters suffered heavy losses, and many low-ranking monks were burned to death by the raging fire.

The Zhuji monks were angry, but when they saw the head of the Fire Worship Gate who was standing not far from the hill and watching the battle, they could only endure it, and they dared not speak out. Monk Jindan was a terrifying existence for them, and it was impossible to contend with it at all.

They didn't dare to offend the Jindan monks who worshiped the Fire Gate, so they could only fight with the fire crows.

Strangely enough, though, the fire crow flock also seems to be a bit chaotic. The entire fire crow group was divided into several groups, and under the leadership of several fifth-order fire crow leaders, they fought against the treasure hunters. The chaos of the fire crow flock has weakened their strength a lot.

"This group of fire crows, there is no fire crow king?!"

Master Xu whispered to himself, his eyes were like torches, and he immediately saw that something was wrong with the fire crow group.

The fire crow is a low-level demon beast race with extremely high intelligence, and generally there will be the strongest fire crow king in the fire crow group, leading the entire fire crow group. However, among the thousands of fire crows in front of him, there was no fire crow king, only several fire crow leaders with similar strength, which split the entire fire crow group into several shares.

"Boss, this group of fire crows is weaker than expected. Do your subordinates want to do it, clear out these fire crows, and rescue the young master?"

Behind him was a confidant monk who built the foundation.

"There's no hurry. Use these fire crows to consume the strength of these treasure hunters as much as possible!"

Xu Zhangmen was expressionless and asked, "The exits of the various passages of Earth Flame Mountain have been sealed?"

"Boss, Senior Brother Ma just sent someone back to report that the three passages have been sealed, and each passage is guarded by five foundation building monks, and everyone is only allowed to enter but not out."

The monk's heart sank, and he hurriedly whispered, "Master, do you really want to kill all the monks later?"

"Let's see how the battle goes. ”

Master Xu groaned.

He brought hundreds of monks from the Fire Gate to this place, there were forty or fifty foundation building monks, and the rest were Qi refining period monks.

There are quite a few treasure hunters on the first and second floors of this Earth Flame Mountain, and there are no less than 2,000 in total. Moreover, among the more than 2,000 treasure hunters, there are no less than thirty or forty foundation monks.

There weren't many advantages to the firegate.

Even if he took action himself, he could only defeat this group of treasure hunters. It was not an easy task to kill all of these more than 2,000 monks. These treasure hunters are not beasts, and will sit and let the fire gate kill.

If it really succeeds, then of course it is very good, the Flame Gate can eliminate dissidents, monopolize the large spiritual land of Flame Mountain, and harvest a huge amount of wealth.

There is nothing to be afraid of. Even if the monks of the Nine Great Immortal Gates track it down, the Fire Worship Gate can push everything on the Fire Crow Group, saying that the Fire Crow Group has caused a disaster and killed all the treasure hunters here.

If a small number of monks rushed out of the Earth Flame Mountain, escaped, and the matter of the Worship Flame Gate massacring fellow monks in the Earth Flame Mountain was leaked out, this would definitely cause public anger and make the Worship Fire Gate become a notorious cult of cultivating immortals, and it would be a catastrophe to be attacked by the Nine Great Immortal Sects.

There's too much at stake.

Xu Zhangmen is also hesitating whether to start.

If the huge group of fire crows and the treasure hunter monks in front of them fought a fire, both sides were defeated, and the treasure hunt monks suffered heavy casualties. The Fire Gate has an absolute advantage, and it is the best time to surround and annihilate the remaining treasure hunters

Raven Hill, hundreds of caves.

The depths of one of the caves.

Ye Chen was meditating, his ears suddenly moved slightly, and he vaguely heard the faint sound of a group of fighting in the distance outside the cave.

The sound of the outside world can be heard in the depths of the cavern, which shows the fierceness of the battle.

"Reinforcements are coming?!"

A surprise thought flashed through Ye Chen's heart.

Xu Wei, the young master of the Flame Gate, once said that it would take a month for the reinforcements from the Flame Gate to arrive. After calculating the time, it has been more than a month, and the reinforcements from the Pyorogate should almost come.

Unless the Flame Worship Gate is not interested in the Earth Flame Mountain at all, and does not take the life or death of the young sect master seriously, he will definitely come to the rescue.

It shouldn't be the reinforcements of the Heavenly Void Immortal Gate.

The Heavenly Void Immortal Gate sent five inspectors to the Ulan Empire, and he was trapped in the Earth Flame Mountain on the border of the Ulan Empire, and the other four brothers were all in the hinterland of the imperial capital of the Ulan Empire. The Heavenly Void Immortal Sect should not know the specific situation of the Flame Mountain, let alone know that he is trapped in this Flame Mountain, and he will definitely not send people to come in a big way. Besides, the distance from the Heavenly Void Immortal Gate to the Earth Flame Mountain on the border of Ulan is a bit far, and the journey is not so fast, and it will not be possible to come without two or three months.

No matter which immortal gate it is, it's good that reinforcements are coming.

Ye Chen thought for a moment, stood up, moved away from the huge rock blocking the cave, held a low-level flying sword magic weapon in his hand, and walked out along the cave passage.

Ye Chen quickly saw the other monks in the cave.

The treasure hunters who were trapped in the various caves heard the shouts of killing from the outside world, and they came out of their hiding places one after another, looking at each other in disbelief.

"Are reinforcements coming?"

"Let's go, go out and have a look!"

Most of the monks who survived after being trapped in the cave for more than a month were in rags, and they fought with the fire crows in the cave for nearly a month, almost all kinds of supplies were exhausted, and they were covered with scars, blood stains and dirt on their clothes, and they were more embarrassed than beggars.

If it had been placed a few days ago and there were no reinforcements, they would have fought to snatch the supplies from each other. But now that reinforcements are coming, they don't have to kill each other either.

Soon, the treasure hunters came out of the cave.

The living monks came out of the cave and saw the treasure hunters fighting with the hordes of fire crows outside, and their faces could not help but show joy.

There were only about twenty people, five of whom were foundation building monks.

The monks glanced at each other, shocked and embarrassed.

More than a month ago, more than 200 monks besieged the Hill of Fire Raven Hill and were trapped in the cave of Fire Raven Hill, and now there are only more than 20 of them who have escaped from death. At the beginning, more than ninety percent of the monks were killed by the fire crow, and they were almost killed and wounded.

The hills of the Fire Raven were full of corpses, and the battle was extremely fierce.

Xu Wei, the young master of the Worship Fire Gate, came out of the cave, a little disgraced, and there were less than five or six monks left beside him.

"Daddy!"

Several monk protectors Xu Wei left the Fire Raven Hill and flew to the vicinity of the hill, with a little shame on his face, to meet Master Xu.

He was sent by the Flame Worship Sect to preside over the excavation of the Earth Flame Mountain, but he was trapped in the underground of this cave, and instead he needed the head of the Fire Worship Gate to personally bring a large group of monks to the rescue, which was considered to be a loss of face to the home. The disciples of the Fire Worship Sect looked at him, the young master, with a little ridicule.

Xu Zhangmen snorted coldly, didn't say anything, didn't even look at Xu Wei who was worshipping on the ground, obviously very dissatisfied.

"Head, the young master sent someone to open up the second floor of the Earth Flame Mountain, and found that the scale of this Earth Flame Mountain is huge, which is a great achievement. Although there were some mistakes afterwards, and he was trapped in this fire crow hill, the flaws were not concealed, and the merits could be overcome. ”

A foundation building monk hurriedly said.

Xu Wei couldn't help but glance at his father's confidant monk gratefully. His father was angry, and he needed someone to help him get rid of his anger.

"Okay! ”

Master Xu shook his head.

Of course, he won't really punish Xu Wei, he will only be angry, but even if he is angry, he still has to bring someone to the rescue in person.

The disgrace was just a trivial matter, and what really disappointed him was that the battle between thousands of treasure hunting monks and nearly a thousand fire crows in front of him, because the fire crow king was nowhere to be seen, and several fifth-order fire crow leaders were killed by dozens of foundation building monks among the treasure hunting monks, the fire crow group without a leader began to become extremely scattered.

The fire raven flock had lost its group advantage, the monks had clearly gained the upper hand, the casualties were greatly reduced, and it was only a matter of time before the fire ravens were defeated. This large group of fire crows alone could not greatly weaken the strength of the treasure hunters in the Earth Flame Mountain.

He had thought about killing all the treasure hunters in the cave, but he didn't dare to give the order to do it easily, and he was still wavering, unable to make up his final decision

Half a day later.

The fight between the treasure hunters and the fire crows on the second floor of the Earth Flame Mountain gradually subsided, and the fire crows were wiped out. In this battle, the treasure hunters only paid the price of more than one or two hundred monks, and the remaining number was still quite large.

The strongest group of fire crow demon birds entrenched on the second floor of the Earth Flame Mountain Cave were cleared, and the remaining demon beasts were weaker and scattered, which was easy to deal with, and did not require a large group of monks to dispatch.

Ye Chen walked out of the cave of the Fire Raven Hill, and soon left the second layer of the Earth Flame Mountain and went to the first floor. Those early stage Qi refining cultivators who did not dare to enter the second layer stayed on the first floor.

He didn't want to deal with the monks of the Fire Gate. The Worship Fire Gate occupied the spiritual land that originally belonged to the Tianxu Gate, and even tried desperately to cover up the news here, sooner or later it would definitely clash with the Tianxu Gate.

This Earth Flame Mountain has two layers of caves just as it is known. The first layer of Earth Flame Mountain is one or twenty miles, and it belongs to a small spiritual land. The second layer is more than a hundred miles, belonging to a large spiritual land, and the resources of various fire-based spiritual objects are extremely rich. In order to compete for such a spiritual land, the various immortal sects are definitely at any cost and use all means.

He, a true disciple of the Heavenly Void Immortal Sect, is not safe here.

A month ago, the situation was slightly better, and the strength of a small group of foundation-building monks such as the Young Sect Master of the Flame Worship Gate in the Earth Flame Mountain was not strong, and their control over the entire Earth Flame Mountain was very weak.

But now, the head of Jindan of the Flame Gate has personally brought a large group of foundation building monks to settle in the Earth Flame Mountain, and the strength of the Flame Gate here has become outrageously strong, and the danger has increased greatly. This made him even more worried and wanted to leave as soon as possible.

He didn't think that if the head of the Jindan of the Fire Worship Gate found out that he was a true disciple of the Tianxu Sect, he would have much to worry about killing him. Killing him, and then pretending to be killed by a demon beast, that is not a problem at all.

Ye Chen had just arrived at the first floor of Earth Flame Mountain when he met Immortal Master Kong and Venerable Wu.

A month ago, Immortal Master Kong and Venerable Wu were almost stunned when they heard the news of the Fire Crow Catastrophe on the second floor of Earth Flame Mountain, and they were so frightened that they fled from Earth Flame Mountain on the spot. After receiving news today that the reinforcements from the Flame Gate worshipped, the two of them re-entered the Earth Flame Mountain to listen to the news and see if Ye Chen survived.

They were all very surprised to see Ye Chen coming out of the second floor of the cave unharmed. Ye Chen is their financier, and they are still counting on being able to run errands for Ye Chen, collect intelligence, and earn more spirit stones.

"Let's get out of here first!"

Ye Chen didn't have time to say more to the two of them, and after saying a word with a calm face, he hurriedly walked towards the exit of the first floor of Earth Flame Mountain.

Immortal Master Kong and Venerable Wu were confused, but they still followed out.

Along a rock cave, the three of them arrived at the exit of the first floor of Earth Flame Mountain, only to find that the five foundation building monks and more than a dozen Qi refining period monks from the Fire Worship Gate had blocked the exit passage and forbade all the monks from entering and leaving.

There were dozens of treasure hunters who wanted to go out, but they stopped them and were arguing.

"Why aren't you allowed to go out?"

"When did this Earth Flame Mountain become the private territory of the Fire Gate, and it was not allowed to go out!"

Several of the treasure hunters shouted angrily, but they didn't dare to rush. Most of them were Qi refining stage cultivators, and it was easier for a few foundation building cultivators to kill them than to chop vegetables.

"This is my order from the head of the Fire Gate, in order to work together to rescue fellow monks trapped on the second floor of the cave, the exit is temporarily closed, so that no one is unwilling to contribute to the elimination of the fire crows. Why, if you are not convinced, go and reason with the master, as long as the head agrees, I will let you out! Before the order, all the monks are allowed to enter but not to leave. ”

Several of the Tsukiji monks from the Fire Gate glanced at each other, but they just sneered.
