Chapter 322 Collusion
“Where are you going!”
Yue Rong pinched her hands together, and the remaining flags of the thick earth two-phase formation on the ground below her body glowed yellow, forming a huge yellow halo, covering the one-horned man and a tall and thin old man beside him.
At the same time, Gu Sanniang also sacrificed a small golden axe, which turned into a large axe shadow of several feet, and chopped down the one-horned man.
The one-horned man suddenly turned around, shook his sleeves, and a small green flag flew out of it. After shaking in the wind, it suddenly turned into several feet in size. Countless blue clouds appeared and supported the yellow halo.
The horn on his forehead shot out a yellow light as thick as a bowl, which collided with Gu Sanniang's golden axe.
With a loud "clang", the golden axe was shaken away, and the sharp axe blade turned into a gray-white color like a rock.
"Petrification magic!" Gu Sanniang was startled, and hurriedly retracted the axe to check.
The tall and thin old man hurriedly stopped his body, sacrificed a short black thorn, turned into a black light, and hit Gu Sanniang.
But at this moment, the old man's eyes suddenly became blurred, and then he immediately regained consciousness.
The direction of the black short thorn suddenly changed, and it went straight to the one-horned man's waist.
The one-horned man was horrified and immediately moved to the side to avoid the short thorn, and at the same time a layer of yellow light rose from his body.
But then there was a "puff" sound behind him, and the yellow light was torn, and his waist was cold, and a black short gun pierced through his abdomen, and blood flashed!
All this happened in a flash, and the distance was very close. Even though the one-horned man's cultivation was slightly higher than that of the tall and thin old man, he still couldn't defend against this sneak attack.
"Lin Po, what are you doing?" The one-horned man turned his head angrily, and a yellow light shot out from his horn, piercing the old man's chest, blooming a bowl-sized blood flower, and a piece of skin and flesh nearby turned into gray-white stone.
However, the tall and thin old man seemed to be unconscious. He did not retreat but advanced. A white light flashed in his hand, and seven or eight more red talismans appeared. After the red light flashed, they all shattered. Seven or eight millstone-sized firebirds appeared out of thin air. They were the first-level upper-level firebird talismans.
The firebirds shot out like arrows from a bow, and all hit the one-horned man who was so close that he could not dodge.
The sound of "boom boom boom" rang out, and the one-horned man was drowned by the exploding flames.
"Brother Fang!" The other disciples of Guiyuan Sect finally reacted and exclaimed.
The tall and thin old man did not attack the one-horned man again, but turned around and ran straight to the red gold centipede.
"Stop Lin Po!" The weak voice of the one-horned man came from the exploding flames.
The other Guiyuan Sect monks originally ran to the one-horned man, and heard the words and rushed to the tall and thin old man.
However, the ground in front of them suddenly cracked, and a figure of Huazhi emerged and waved his hands. Two long purple-black vines with purple flowers on them shot out from his sleeves, sweeping over like a long whip.
The fragrance spread, and the Guiyuan Sect monk felt sore all over when he approached. Recalling Zuo Qinghui's words just now, he dodged like a snake or scorpion.
Manager Liao, the Wang brothers, and Cui Wuran also tried to come over, but were stopped by Yue Rong, Ishikawa, Zuo Qinghui, and Gu Sanniang. For a while, various magic weapons and spells in the air collided fiercely, colliding with fierce flames, and Manager Liao and others were also stopped aside.
The tall and thin old man had already pounced in front of the red gold centipede, and the black short thorns hit one of the red gold centipede's eyes.
The red gold centipede was furious, and it opened its mouth and sprayed a dark green poisonous mist, drowning the tall and thin old man's body.
The tall and thin old man did not dodge, and his body quickly rotted, and he fell down.
The red-gold centipede opened its mouth and bit the tall and thin old man's body directly, swallowing him in one gulp.
Seeing this scene, everyone present was shocked, and the disciples of Guiyuan Sect were stunned.
The flames around the one-horned man had gone out, and he fell to the ground. Nearly half of his body was burned black, but his life was not in danger.
"General Jin Centipede, kill all these people, don't leave any!" The one-horned man took out a green talisman and stuck it on the wound on his lower back, slowly stood up, and said in a cold voice.
A trace of strangeness flashed in the eyes of the red-gold centipede, and then it recovered as before, and its huge body flew towards Zuo Qinghui, Yue Rong and others.
The monks of Guiyuan Sect took out the detoxification pills and held them in their mouths, and took out the masks to protect their mouths and noses, followed closely behind the red-gold centipede, and surrounded them.
Ishikawa's eyes were filled with fear, and he suddenly got out of the battle group and sacrificed a fiery red flying sword to hold up his body.
The flying sword turned into a long red rainbow, and in the blink of an eye it flew dozens of feet away, intending to escape from the battlefield.
Gu Sanniang couldn't help cursing when she saw this, and Yue Rong frowned.
"Don't worry about him, you two should also prepare to retreat." Zuo Qinghui's somewhat indifferent voice transmission made Yue Rong and Gu Sanniang stunned.
As soon as he finished speaking, something strange happened!
The red gold centipede that pounced on Yue Rong and others suddenly changed direction and went straight to Manager Liao and others, opening its mouth to spray out a dark green poisonous mist.
Manager Liao and the other four were caught off guard and were immediately submerged by the poisonous mist, screaming in pain.
The red gold centipede penetrated into the poisonous mist like lightning, bit Cui Wuran who was desperately resisting the poisonous mist, and swallowed him in the same way as it swallowed the tall and thin old man just now.
The centipede twisted its body and its thick and long tail swept towards the people of Guiyuan Sect.
The ground nearby suddenly cracked, and thick vines shot out, covered with purple poisonous flowers, and swept towards the Guiyuan Sect monks, forcing them to retreat again.
The one-horned man was shocked, but no matter how he called, the red gold centipede ignored him. Yue Rong and Gu Sanniang were surprised and happy when they saw this scene.
"Go!" Zuo Qinghui sent a message to the two girls, and waved his hand to shoot out two sword-shaped golden lights.
Golden light passed over Yue Rong and Gu Sanniang, and two hair-thin transparent thread-like insects were rolled out.
Gu Sanniang looked surprised, obviously not knowing when these two insects appeared on their bodies.
"Zuo Daoyou, what are you going to do?" Yue Rong asked with gratitude.
"I have my own way to get out of this, you guys go!" Zuo Qinghui urged.
"Thank you, Zuo Daoyou, for your kindness today, I will definitely repay you in the future!" Yue Rong didn't say anything more, bowed to Zuo Qinghui, and offered a silver flying car in the shape of a flying bird.
The two women jumped into the car and started it together.
The bird-shaped flying car shot out and turned into a brilliant silver light that rushed into the sky.
Zuo Qinghui's figure flashed, and the next moment he appeared beside Hua Zhi.
The red-gold centipede swam over quickly. Zuo Qinghui and Huazhi jumped onto the back of the red-gold centipede and waved their hands to cast several green talismans, which were attached to the red-gold centipede. They were all light-body talismans, wind talismans and other acceleration talismans.
The red-gold centipede's body became light, and its 100 feet moved very quickly. Its long body turned into a blurred golden shadow, not much slower than Yue Rong's bird-shaped flying car.
This series of changes happened quickly, and Zuo Qinghui and others ran away in the blink of an eye!
"Damn it, don't worry about the others, chase the red-gold centipede!" The one-horned man shouted anxiously.
However, at this moment, a large area of thick white fog emerged from the nearby void, instantly submerging all places in all directions, and the power of spiritual consciousness could not be released.
Several people were already frightened by Zuo Qinghui's many strange methods, and they subconsciously stopped for fear of being ambushed if they continued to move forward.
"Don't stop! Otherwise, the red-gold centipede will be kidnapped, and we won't be able to survive. Chase it!" The one-horned man barely stopped bleeding from his wound, and he chased after it first.
Seeing this, the others gritted their teeth and chased after it. They didn't encounter any danger and quickly chased it out of the white fog.
However, the red-gold centipede had disappeared after the delay just now, and there was no trace left on the ground.
"The red-gold centipede can't fly, how could there be no trace? Has it been put into the spirit beast bag? This is impossible!" The one-horned man's eyes revealed an unbelievable look.
"Brother Fang, what should we do now?" A square-faced man next to him looked at the one-horned man with a panicked look.
They came here today on someone's order to capture the monks in Xiansha City. Now that all the targets have escaped, they have lost three people, and the red-gold centipede has also been controlled and taken away by the enemy with strange means. If they go back like this, they will definitely die ugly.
Others also looked at the one-horned man, who was at a loss at the moment.
Manager Liao and the Wang brothers also flew over. The three of them were covered with poison spots, and their eyes were filled with a bit of panic after surviving a disaster.
The one-horned man glanced at the three people and ignored them.
"I still have one tobacco worm attached to the bearded boy from the Huoyuan Sect." A short female cultivator next to him suddenly said.
"Chase, catch this person no matter what!" The one-horned man ordered decisively.
The red-haired young man summoned a white flying boat, lifted a group of people and rushed forward, chasing the direction where Ishikawa fled.
...
After the one-horned man and others left, the ground rippled slightly, the condition of the sand changed drastically, and the traces of two rows of centipedes walking appeared.
The ground not far away suddenly cracked, and the red gold centipede slowly drilled out.
A yellow light flashed on the sand, and the figures of Zuo Qinghui, Huazhi, and Yuan Ming also appeared.
"Master, since you are here, it is easy to capture these people, why let them go?" Huazhi looked at Yuan Ming and asked puzzledly.
"These are disciples of Guiyuan Sect. Killing them all will have a huge impact. I don't have time to clean up the mess. My target is the red gold centipede. It is enough to catch this beast." Yuan Ming said lightly, turning to the red gold centipede.
The red gold centipede opened its mouth and spit out two people, the tall and thin old man and Cui Wuran.
Yuan Ming had something to ask the two people, so he did not let the centipede melt the two people with venom. Instead, he managed to extract the poison from the two people in his stomach.
The two people are still alive at this moment, but their breath is extremely weak.
Yuan Ming came to Cui Wuran, put his palm on his head, and performed the soul-searching magic.
Cui Wuran obviously had colluded with these people a long time ago. Yesterday's exchange meeting was a conspiracy set up by this person in advance. So what he said at the exchange meeting might be false.
It is about the formation of the elixir, and he must find out whether the two methods are true or false.
A trace of black light appeared in Yuan Ming's palm, and he quickly found the memory of the two secret methods that assisted the formation of the elixir and breathed a sigh of relief.
Judging from Cui Wuran's memory, the two methods are true, but the content of the "Transplanting Flowers and Grafting Trees" is missing a lot.
This secret method was indeed obtained from a corpse in the desert, but it was not found by chance, and it also came from these Guiyuan Sect monks.
Cui Wuran had long been in collusion with the Guiyuan Sect monks. For some reason, those Guiyuan Sect monks have been arresting monks in various places in the Black Wind Desert, mainly those in the Foundation Establishment Stage.
The Black Wind Desert is already chaotic and lawless, and the disappearance of monks is commonplace, so even if someone is caught from time to time, it still does not attract anyone's attention.
Cui Wuran joined them by chance a few years ago when he was poor and destitute.
This person has average strength, but he is eloquent and is known for his righteousness in dealing with people. After gaining trust, he uses various temptations to lead some monks into the Black Wind Desert and send them to the Guiyuan Sect monks to earn rich rewards.
Just like today, if Yuan Ming had not been here, the other party would have succeeded.
