The Sacred Ding Chapter 290: Living
Chen Hai suspects that the Demon Temple has more elite combat power lurking near Lucheng, but on the northern **** of Wushaoling Mountain, he and Qi Hanjiang are dotted with Tsing Yi Taoists and Hei Jiao in the direction of escape, chasing eastward Two or three hundred miles, it was soon discovered that there was no trace of the black dragon flying by.
Hei Jiao such spirit beasts, even if they don’t have huge scale wings or wings, only rely on their innate ability to fly through clouds and fog, the speed of Yufeng flying is not weaker than ordinary spirit birds, and wants to get rid of Chen Hai and Qi Hanjiang. , It’s really easy, just moving and fighting in a narrow space, not as flexible as some powerful martial artists, but there are several martial artists who dare to learn from Chen Hai, and fight head-to-head with Hei Jiao for two hours. Without exhaustion?
Chen Hai is a freak that cannot be measured by common sense.
Chen Hai and Qi Hanjiang can chase two or three hundred miles eastward, mainly because Hei Jiao and Chen Hai were not lightly wounded in a fierce battle. You can't worry too much about running away in a hurry. The huge monster body will fly across the sky. Only when the strong airflow is driven, and the hot blood is spilled, will it leave some traces on the immortal glacier at the top of the northern slope.
When Taoists in Tsing Yi thought of hiding their traces, they only needed to raise the flying height of the black dragon for more than a thousand meters, or follow the wind to fly across the mountains, and there would be no more clues left.
When Chen Hai and Qi Hanjiang returned to Lukai Gorge, they saw Du Linan carrying a dozen riders, anxiously inspecting the traces of yesterday's fierce battle in front of the stone bank under Lukai Gorge.
Seeing Chen Hai and Qi Hanjiang coming back, Du Linan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Last night, Lucheng was closed and no one could get in or out. We stayed in the guild hall all night with fear and rushed over when the city gate opened at dawn—what? The envoy was not in Luheyuan last night?"
Du Linan only discovered the cultivation base of the later stage of the spiritual realm. Unlike the five surnames of Lucheng, who have so many eyes and ears outside the city, when the stormy night sees the thunder and lightning on the Luheyuan side, he only guessed that there is a fierce battle here, but Without confirming, Chen Hai must have been ambushed by a powerful enemy, and at the dawn of the day, he rushed over to see what happened.
Seeing that Chen Hai and Qi Hanjiang are safe and sound, Du Linan breathed a sigh of relief, mistakenly thinking that Chen Hai was not in Luheyuan yesterday and that the fierce battle last night had nothing to do with Chen Hai.
"It's not us, who is it?" Qi Hanjiang said irritably, thinking that the battle last night was really dangerous, even if it wasn't for Du Linan to inform him, he felt that Du Linan was oversight.
Du Linan didn’t have time to pay attention to Qi Hanjiang’s rejection of him. He was shocked when he heard Qi Hanjiang say that yesterday’s battle was indeed Chen Hai’s encounter with a powerful enemy in Luheyuan. It's hard to suppress, it's hard to imagine how intense the battle last night was.
When Hei Jiao escaped, his injuries were not too serious, but Chen Hai's huge body was also chopped by Chen Hai in many places, leaving mottled bloodstains among the rocky cliffs, as well as blazing sun demon elements, which is not difficult. Imagine how powerful Chen Hai and the others met yesterday.
"The demon temple may have more elites lurking nearby."
Chen Hai saw that there were several people nearby to observe the traces of yesterday's fierce battle. He would not blame Du Linan for his oversight at this time. He asked Du Linan to talk about things in a corner where he could avoid others' eyes.
Firstly, Du Linan is a disciple of Taiweizong, and there is no need to be responsible for him. Secondly, there are various signs that the demon temple has so many elite disciples lurking near Lucheng, mainly targeting Taiweizong and Dong family. Du Linan himself only In the later stage of the Spirit Realm cultivation base, the manpower that can be deployed in Lucheng is extremely limited, and it is normal for the Demon Temple to be able to hide Du Linan.
Chen Hai told Du Linan about the appearance of the Black Jiao and Taoist Tsing Yi.
"Yue Yiran!" Du Linan did not find out the details of the two powerhouses lurking in the Demon Temple in Lucheng, mainly because they did not show up in public after entering Lucheng with the caravan of the Changle City Lord’s Mansion, but Du Linan was right. The important figures in the Demon Temple still knew everything well, and said, “Yue Yiran is a direct disciple of Zhou Nan, the master of the Demon Temple, who was originally a child of the Yue family from the small clan of the Great Oasis in Tahe. Entering the Demon God Temple to practice, it is said that at the age of twenty, he opened up the Ancestral Aperture Consciousness Sea and stepped into the Ming Aperture Realm. He was regarded as the candidate most likely to continue to be the master of the Demon God Temple. , But it is also an alien species that has been difficult to see in Dajinshan for thousands of years. I didn’t expect that the one who ambushed the state envoy yesterday was actually Yue Yiran and his beast.
It was precisely because he knew the details of these important people like Yue Yiran, Du Linan was even more shocked. Unexpectedly, Chen Hai and Qi Hanjiang would be able to repel Yue Yiran and the next demon dragon. This is something that people in the Dan realm can't do. what.
The Yue clan is a small clan in Tahe. In the early years, he was bullied and abused by a large clan and almost died. After Yue Yiran's cultivation was successful, a single Yu Jiao broke into this enemy's clan land, beheaded the opponent's Patriarch of the late Ming Aperture Stage and fled all over.
That was already three years ago. At this time, Yue Yiran's cultivation base would only be more unpredictable.
Of course, apart from Chen Hai’s repulsion of Yue Yiran, which was shocking, Du Linan was more troubled by his previous misjudgment. He suddenly felt thorny and said: “Yue Yiran has arrived in Lucheng. The Demon Temple is definitely not the only one lurking in Lucheng. There are three to five hundred elite!"
Du Linan's investigation for so long has generally confirmed that there are three to five hundred elites in Lucheng, who are directly controlled by the Demon Temple or the Tibetan and Qiang Kingdom, but these three to five hundred elites are mainly based on the martial arts of the Tongxuan realm. It is only equivalent to three to five hundred Dao Ya soldiers.
This part of the elite, it seems that it can still affect the situation of Lucheng, especially there are two figures from the peak of the Aperture Realm or even the half-walking Dan realm hidden behind the scenes, but they are really waiting for the elite army and Ye Qinglin When the Xiqiang King Clan Army arrived at Lucheng City, the role that these three to five hundred elites could play would become extremely limited.
So, in the previous strategy, Du Linan also wanted to help Chen Hai win the support of the Zhao clan or the Zhou clan, so that he could win Lucheng with lightning speed.
At this moment, it seemed that the elites lurking near Lucheng in the Demon Temple were far beyond their imagination.
The Demon Temple did not make an advance. It was probably because they believed that Taiweizong and Dong would definitely interfere in the civil war in the Western Qiang Kingdom. They wanted to use Lucheng as a trap and waited for Taiweizong and Dong’s reinforcements to step into this trap. Ambushed!
To understand this, Du Linan was also frightened in a cold sweat.
Even if Taiweizong and Hexi Daduhufu will not send troops directly, if Jingjuejun and Ye's royal army were ambushed in Lucheng and suffered heavy losses, he should not think about getting ahead in Hexi and Taiweizong all his life. day.
The biggest question right now is where is the elite of the Demon God Temple hidden, and how did it lurk to the vicinity of Lucheng?
Taiwei Guild Hall has eyeliner in other cities of Pinglu, Du Linan did not find too many clues.
"The five surnames of Lucheng, there must have been someone who has already cast into the Demon Temple to help hide the elite disciples of the Demon Temple!" Qi Hanjiang said grimly.
The fact that the five surnames of Lucheng remain neutral is the result of the five surnames restraining each other. Not every family wants to remain absolutely neutral. Du Linan also suspects that the Zhang family of Lucheng might have already secretly fallen to the demon temple, but was restricted by the other four. He could not express his position publicly, but he still didn’t feel that these elites of the Demon Temple were hidden in Zhang’s farm outside the city, and said: “The Demon Temple is not famous for refining weapons, alchemy, and seals, but they all have imperial beasts. Almost every elite disciple will train a soul-communicating beast or bird to follow since childhood—just like the black dragon in front of Yue Yiran. The Zhang clan also has several farms outside the city, with more than It’s easy to hide two to three hundred people in a 100,000 mu of grain field, even two to three thousand people. But if you want to hide from others’ vision and hide two or three hundred ferocious monsters, it’s impossible to hide them. Clues are revealed."
Speaking of this, Du Linan saw Chen Haizheng frowning and looking towards the peaks south of Lukaixia. He was also shocked and asked uncertainly: "The state envoy also thinks that the elite disciples of the Demon Temple are very likely to be Lurking in the mountains south of Lukai Gorge?"
Chen Hai nodded, he thought of Chimeijiao's uprising in Qin Tongshan.
At that time, Qin Tongshan gathered millions of refugees, but in the eyes of the court ministers and the children of the eight ethnic groups in Beijing, no matter how large the number of refugees, they are all vulnerable mobs, but few people would think of it. Tianshi Gongliang led more than a thousand elite disciples of the red eyebrow teacher to sneak into Qintong Mountain long ago.
At this time, the Black Swallow Army, which competed in Heyang, Lichuan, and Jiyang against the Xiyuan Army and the Huben Army, was based on the integration of millions of refugees based on the thousands of elite disciples of the Chimei Sect.
The barren mountains to the south of Wushaoling~IndoMTL.com~ are steeper and steeper than the Qintong Mountains. The Xuefeng glaciers above 10,000 meters are everywhere, even the Hexi Daoyabing and Yitong Xuanjing The disciple’s elite combat power can't easily traverse nearly ten thousand miles, and most of them are above the snow line. However, if the demon temple dispatched at this time, they are at least the most capable of spiritual realm cultivation. What about elite disciples?
Such speculation can also explain why Taiweizong's eyeliner lurking in Pinglu and Tahe has not found any clues. The Demon Temple did not borrow troops from the tribes of Tahe Oasis (Tibet and Qiang Kingdom), nor did it borrow from Tahe and Pinglu Oasis. Who can find clues?
The most important thing now is not to persuade the Zhao or Zhou clan of Lucheng to vote for Taiweizong, but to first confirm how much elite combat power is lurking in the Demon Temple in the mountains south of Lukaixia.
If the Demon Temple gathers three to five hundred elite disciples above the Spirit Realm, plus the hundreds of ferocious monsters and birds it guards, even if Hexi dispatches tens of thousands of elite yamen to help Pinglu, or not No matter what to watch out for, it's hard to escape the bleak end of the catastrophe.
The Demon Temple has not forgotten the blood feud 20 years ago, in addition to secretly supporting Zhang Xiong and Kong Peng to subvert Ye's royal power, destroying the marriage of Dong and Ye's, and even want to directly seduce the elite soldiers in Hexi!
