Chapter 18: The Vanished Man
"The elixir is in the valley, but ...... I just don't know, do you have the ability to take it!"
"Haha...... Do you think that the five of you can make any big waves?" laughed and laughed.
"Hehe, I want to ask you this sentence too!" A chuckle came from Taniguchi, and Jiang Yuan took Zhengyi and a group of people back and forth.
"You didn't leave?!" the soul panicked suddenly, and sure enough, the hunch in his heart was right.
Zhengyi took the lead and instantly surrounded everyone in the valley, and the situation in the field suddenly changed.
The disciples behind him were in an uproar, "Senior brother, we have been tricked! What should we do now?"
"What else can I do, I can only fight! Hmph! I was raided by them last night, and today let these so-called famous and decent people see the methods of our Corpse Sect!" slapped his palm on the corpse hall in front of him, shaking the lid of his coffin away, revealing the "things" inside.
"Hiss~" Qi Yue saw this kind of thing for the first time, and his appearance was no different from ordinary people, the only difference was that the pupils of this "thing" were completely dark and deep, and his whole body exuded a strong aura, without a trace of the breath of a living person, which was very intimidating.
"This ...... This is "The disciples of the Purple Sun Sword Sect around seemed to be seeing this kind of thing for the first time, and they couldn't help but feel a little worried in their hearts, and they each took two steps back.
"Don't be afraid, everyone! This is just a puppet manipulated by evil laws! As long as the head is cut off, it will definitely die!" Zhengyi's effect at this time was revealed, and a group of outer disciples were very convinced of it, and when they heard him say this, they immediately stabilized the formation, re-maintained the sword formation, staring at this corpse, ready to attack without hesitation.
Seeing this scene, Jiang Yuan was even more satisfied with Zhengyi, and smiled slightly, "It's just a corpse, I thought that you evil sects could make any progress after so many years, it seems that I look down on you!"
From the moment they entered the valley, Yan Soul had already focused on Jiang Yuan's body, "Your Excellency is ......?"
In order to make things easier, Jiang Yuan had already changed out of the disciple clothes that showed his identity when he went down the mountain, so Yan Soul was a little uncertain at the moment and didn't dare to do it easily.
Slowly stepped forward, and after scanning the eyes of the Soul and the others, he sneered, "It's okay to tell you, who are about to die. I am Jiang Yuan, a disciple of Qingyang Peak!"
"What! He is ......" "This is impossible!" "How can he come to pass on the disciple in person?" As soon as these words came out, the disciples of the Yan Corpse Sect who were present blew up the pot, and they all showed a look of horror, as if Jiang Yuan was such a terrifying person.
Even the Yan Soul, who seemed very calm before, was cold all over his body at this moment, and he was covered in a cold sweat, "It's a big trouble!" The fighting intent subsided, his eyes fluttered around, and he was half a step behind his feet, ready to run away at any time.
"Uncle Shi, kill or not, please give an order!" Thinking that he was about to be promoted to an inner disciple, his years of perseverance had finally paid off, and Zhengyi couldn't wait to solve the other party quickly.
"Leave a living mouth" didn't mean to do anything at all, just instructed such a sentence, and stepped aside to watch Zhengyi's performance.
After getting Jiang Yuan's permission, he didn't say much, and said with a sword trick in his left hand: "All disciples listen to the order! Form a sword formation! Don't let go of a single person!"
"Yes......" The disciples present listened to the order at the same time, and the sword formation changed from defense to attack, and every group of two attacked each other at the same time, and each group attacked and defended each other, and immediately switched directions with the side if the blow missed, without giving the other party a chance to counterattack.
The sword shadow flashed in the field, the figure flew over, and only one round of the disciples of the Yan Corpse Sect were in a hurry by the combination of the inside and outside, and they had no power to fight back, and a few of them who had almost cultivated did not even come to the corpse to be released, and they were stabbed to death on the spot by a sword, and the power of the Ziyang Sword Array was terrifying.
"Everyone be careful! pay attention to blocking the attack with the corpse, and move closer to me!" The tragic death of the same disciple in an instant aroused the desire of the Yan Soul to survive, knowing that if they were not united at this time, they would definitely not be able to get out of the valley today.
This Yan Soul didn't know what evil method he had practiced, his body was as hard as iron, and the ordinary disciple's long sword was completely unable to cause damage to him, and he waved his arms again and again to block the sword qi of the seven or eight sword paths shooting at the disciple beside him, bringing a little respite to his own people.
Taking advantage of this, all the remaining disciples used their own corpses as shields to forcibly block a wave of attacks, and gathered around the Yan Soul one after another.
"Senior brother, what should we do now, everyone's corpses are almost unbearable!" a disciple took the opportunity to ask.
"I'll count to three, and everyone will put their corpses in front of them, and we'll rush out together!"
"One, two, three! Run!" Yan Soul relied on his own invulnerability, and took the lead in knocking the sword-wielding disciple in front of him away, leading everyone to rush out of the valley.
Things happened too fast, and Shoichi didn't expect it, and when he reacted, the first few people were already about to rush out of the valley.
The valley mouth in front of him has become the hope of the Soul and the others, and as long as they rush out, they can jump off the cliff next to them to save their lives.
Hope is in front of him, and the Yan Soul has faintly heard the chirping of the lark outside the valley, but at this moment, Jiang Yuan made a move.
A long sword snatched from the disciple next to him drew a graceful arc in the air, followed by a few "poof!poof~" A few sounds, the four people who ran at the back covered their necks that were bleeding like pillars, their eyes widened, and they slowly fell, and they didn't seem to believe that an ordinary iron sword could easily pass through their throats.
He didn't have to look back to know what was going on behind him, and at this moment he had no choice but to be able to jump off the cliff in front of him before the next sword came.
Closer, closer, the rest of the people have heard the sound of the water flowing at the bottom of the cliff, "The sky is endless, there is water below! Everyone jump...... Uh!" Before he could finish his rejoicing, another long sword pierced straight through his chest, and when he turned around to die, he saw that the disciple from before was already standing behind him, and his contemptuous eyes were the last sight he had ever seen in the human world.
"Hmph! want to run?" pulled out the long sword, and didn't see him make any movements, the three people in front of him, including the Soul Spirit, all had an extra sword mark on their chests, the only difference was that the other two had been divided into two sections in mid-air, while the Soul Spirit's body was extremely hard, just a mouthful of blood spurted out, just falling off the cliff with this power, life and death unknown.
Several people died tragically one after another, and it seemed that a long time had passed, but because Jiang Yuan's movements were too fast, everything happened in a short moment, and when Zhengyi chased after him with his disciples, he only saw that the corpses all over the ground had already died.
"Uncle forgive me! Blame me for the unstable sword formation, I was run out by these evil ways, and I bothered Uncle Shi to take action in person!"
"Forget it, don't take it as an example!" With a wave of his hand, he exempted everyone from responsibility, turned to look at the cliff in front of him and said: "The person who took the lead seems to be practicing kung fu in order to get it, just now my sword didn't kill him, you hurry up and take people down to see, you want to see people alive and corpses when you die!"
Zheng glanced at the cliff below, although it was bottomless, but he could faintly hear that there was a river below, and he didn't dare to slack off at the moment, so he waved his hand and took the three disciples down the cliff on another road.
Qi Yue was late at this time, in fact, he didn't blame him, as soon as the battle began, he knew that he couldn't intervene at all, so he could only stand aside and watch quietly, until the gang broke through and everyone rushed out, and he also followed him to the outside of the valley.
"Eleven...... Twelve, huh, why are there two missing?" counted the corpses of these people all the way to Jiang Yuan's side, but unexpectedly found that there were two missing.
"What's missing two?" Jiang Yuan's attention was attracted by Qi Yue and asked in surprise.
"That group of people just now is obviously fourteen people, but I came all the way to the tree, how come there are a total of twelve corpses in and outside the valley?" explained him, pointing to the corpse lying on the ground.
"No, only one person fell into the valley just now, and the rest are here, how can there be less?
Seeing that Jiang Yuan didn't believe him, Qi Yue looked left and right, stretched out his hand and pointed at the remaining disciples and said, "I don't believe you ask them, I was indeed fourteen people when I first entered the valley."
Seeing that Qi Yue's strict words were not fake, he motioned for a few people to come over and ask. The stakes were very high, and several disciples did not dare to slack off, and exchanged with each other to confirm the report: "Uncle Hui, there were indeed fourteen people who entered the valley before, and there were a total of twelve corpses here, plus one person who had just fallen off the cliff, a total of thirteen people."
Hearing the report, Jiang Yuan's face sank like water, and someone actually fled under his nose, and he didn't even notice it, which he couldn't bear, "Go and check, is that one missing?"
He believed that the disciples who were able to enter the Ziyang Sword Sect were very human, and they should still be able to remember the appearance of the fourteen people.
After receiving the order, several disciples began to check one by one, and they didn't have time for a cup of tea, so a few people came back and reported: "Uncle Yu, it's the extremely ugly disciple of the Corpse Sect who followed this group of people before!"
"It's him!" Qi Yue and Jiang Yuan exclaimed at the same time, and they instantly recalled in their minds that there was indeed a cowering and ugly-looking young man following behind that group of people, but because the rivers and lakes only focused on strength, that person was ugly but his martial arts were extremely poor, and everyone didn't pay attention to it after a little glance.
"So many of you actually let a big living person run away under your noses?
"I seem to have seen him!" Just as the disciples didn't know how to answer, Qi Yue relieved them, "When he rushed out before, he seemed to disappear near the mouth of the valley!"
trotted all the way over, squatted down and stretched out his hand to push away the grass, "This is ......!" There is actually a secluded path between the gaps in the boulders in front of him, and it is often hidden in such a conspicuous place without being discovered.
