Chapter 171: Ambush Along the Way

c_t;The Shadowless Dragon has the innate ability to merge with space. As long as they pay attention to hiding their breath, even a strong person who is two realms higher than themselves will find it difficult to find their traces. [Fast updates, clean website pages, few ads, I like this kind of website the most, must give a good review]--

But the premise is that the distance cannot be too close, because the stronger the cultivation, the stronger the perception, especially the strong who have reached the realm of Martial King, have touched the mystery of space and controlled the power of heaven and earth. Once the distance is close, there is a great possibility of discovering the Shadowless Dragon that has merged with space.

So every time Luo Xiu faced a Martial King-level strongman, he would let Long Ming stay away to avoid being discovered.

In the Great Wasteland City, there are seven or eight Martial King-level strongmen, and a Martial Lord who is in charge of the Great Wasteland Auction House. Therefore, Long Ming still needs to be careful to hide when entering the city and control the distance to a few hundred meters away.

At the same time, Luo Xiu found out that the King of Martial Arts of the Fan Family, who was stationed in the Great Wasteland City, was named Fan Lingyun, the son of Fan Feiyang, and Luo Xiu was a close friend.

Fan Lingyun would not conceal his whereabouts, so Long Ming followed Luo Xiu's request and monitored his actions for a while.

The inn chosen by Luo Xiu was not far from Fan Lingyun's residence.

Seven days later, the Yuanqi Stones collected by the Fan Family were finally delivered, and Fan Lingyun personally traded with the Great Wasteland Auction House and obtained the jade slip of the ninth-grade martial arts, Senluo Dead Spirit Sword Art.

As soon as they got the jade slip, a group of people led by Fan Lingyun immediately set out to leave the Great Wasteland City to escort the jade slip of the ninth-grade martial arts to the palace of Tianwu City.

Fan Lingyun thought he had done all this in a relatively covert way, and disguised himself when he left the city, but all his actions were clearly observed by Long Ming.

Therefore, after Fan Lingyun and his party left the city, Luo Xiu followed closely behind, quietly following and hiding his breath.

There is no teleportation array in Dahuang City, mainly because the distance is too far, and ordinary teleportation arrays cannot achieve the desired effect. In addition, there are many restrictions on the arrangement of teleportation arrays, so to return to Tianwu City from Dahuang City, you must first leave the northern wilderness from Dahuang City.

Hundreds of miles away from Dahuang City, a group of masked black-clothed men appeared in front and blocked the way of Fan Lingyun and his party.

In a hidden place in the distance, Luo Xiu hid carefully, his eyes slightly stern.

"It seems that although the Fan family is the strongest in Tianwu, it is not that no one dares to offend it."

The appearance of this group of masked black-clothed men is obviously also to intercept and kill halfway and snatch the Senluo Dead Sword Art.

"Who are you? Dare to block the way of this king?" Fan Lingyun shouted sternly, and the aura of a martial king permeated his body.

"Haha, why is Prince Lingyun in such a hurry to leave the wilderness? Why don't you leave something behind before you go?"

The masked black-clothed man in the lead laughed loudly, his eyes flashing with a blazing luster.

"How dare you snatch the things of my Fan family's royal family, you ignorant thing!" Fan Lingyun was furious, he knew that the other party's goal was to come for the ninth-grade martial arts. 80s e-book/

"Hmph, Prince Lingyun, I advise you to hand over the things wisely. Although you are a martial king, you are the only one."

Beside the leader of the masked black-clothed man, two more figures appeared, each of them exuding the powerful aura of a martial king-level strongman.

Three martial kings!

Such a three-to-one situation made Fan Lingyun's face suddenly change.

"Retreat!"

Fan Lingyun roared, and then he was the first to turn into a stream of light and quickly fled towards the distant sky.

Many of the martial artists of the Fan family who were traveling with him also drew their swords and weapons, and their bodies were shining with the light of true essence. They were all martial masters in the realm of refining spirits.

"You stubborn people, go to hell, kill them!"

The leader of the masked black-clothed men gave an order, and many black-clothed men behind him also burst into aura, and the two sides rushed together.

At this time, three martial kings in black flew into the air and chased in the direction where Fan Lingyun fled at full speed.

Among the three black-clothed martial kings, one practiced the wind-based martial arts and was best at speed. It didn't take long for him to catch up with Fan Lingyun. He tried to stop him, and the two companions behind him also caught up.

In mid-air, Fan Lingyun took out a sword, his face was extremely gloomy.

The three black-clothed martial kings had cold eyes and murderous intent.

In an instant, there was no need for too many words, and the two sides fought each other, and the sound of the true essence waves and explosions echoed in the sky, without stopping.

Luo Xiu was too lazy to take a second look at the fight between the two sides' soul-refining martial arts sects, and his eyes were fixed on the four martial kings fighting in the air in the distance.

The light of the true essence was like a flame, completely covering the bodies of the four martial kings, and their auras were all turned to the strongest peak state.

With every move, the power of heaven and earth was mobilized, and with a punch, a sword, a finger, a knife, all kinds of martial arts above the seventh level were at hand, with unparalleled power, the void trembled and the space was distorted.

The three Martial Kings who besieged Fan Lingyun were slightly weaker than Fan Lingyun if they were taken out individually, but when the three of them joined forces, the continuous attacks came from all directions, making it impossible for him to deal with them calmly. After only a dozen rounds of fighting, the two sides began to retreat step by step, and their faces became paler and paler.

"Bang!"

Fan Lingyun knocked a black-clothed Martial King away with a martial arts move, but the attacks of the other two black-clothed Martial Kings followed one after another, forcing him to hastily use defensive measures and was immediately blown away, with blood flowing from the corners of his mouth.

"Yan Family, Lin Family, Ye Family..."

Fan Lingyun's eyes swept across the three black-clothed Martial Kings, and sneered: "You three families actually dared to intercept me halfway and rob the things of my Fan family's royal family. You will definitely pay the price for this!"

The three black-clothed Martial Kings did not seem surprised at all that Fan Lingyun could recognize their identities and origins.

After all, the ten great families know each other very well. After a brief fight, they can easily judge everything by the strength of the other party's true essence, the cultivation method, and the martial arts they use.

The black-clothed martial king who led the group practiced the fire-based martial arts. He was surrounded by flames. When he used martial arts, the flame true essence would condense into a phoenix form. At a glance, it was known that it was the eighth-grade inherited martial arts of the Yan family, the "Heavenly Phoenix Art".

Yan Yue'er was called the Heavenly Phoenix Martial Lord because of the "Heavenly Phoenix Art" that represented the Yan family.

The other two practiced the "Sevenfold Secret of Layered Waves" of the Lin family and the "Wind and Clouds Art" of the Ye family.

"Fan Lingyun, hand over the jade slip, or you will die!"

"Even if I destroy the jade slip, I will never give it to you!"

The two sides fought again, and each used various means. Fan Lingyun alone had more than a dozen fifth-level talismans, and he resisted the siege of the three martial kings.

He also activated a wind control talisman, and his speed soared suddenly, trying to escape from this place.

Luo Xiu was far away, and unless the four martial kings opened the range of their spiritual sense scanning to the maximum, they would not find his trace.

In this fierce battle, the four martial kings were highly concentrated, and naturally would not spread their spiritual sense to the maximum range.

"Let's go, get ready to catch up."

Luo Xiu stretched out his hand and patted the golden light spirit lion crawling under him, his eyes narrowed slightly, and saw Fan Lingyun rushing out of the encirclement of the three black-clothed martial kings, his figure turned into a stream of light, and flew towards the south at a very fast speed.

"Chase!"

The three black-clothed martial kings naturally refused to give up, and they also opened their speed to the maximum, desperately chasing.

The golden fire spirit lion under Luo Xiu's feet also received his order, stepped on the ground with all four limbs, flew into the air, and turned into a flame of light, like a meteor, breaking through the sky.

This golden fire spirit lion is an ancient species, and it is also a ninth-level cultivation of the soul-refining level. Naturally, it cannot match the speed of the martial king. Not long after, the figures of the four martial kings disappeared into the sky.

However, Luo Xiu's expression was very calm, and he was not in a hurry at all, because Long Ming had already been sent out by him, staring at Fan Lingyun and pointing him in the right direction at all times.

This scene was very similar to the time when he was chasing the third prince Fan Youli in the Xuanyou Secret Realm.

In terms of speed, the shadowless dragon has a unique advantage. Even the martial king cannot match the speed of a soul-refining shadowless dragon.

"Another martial king appeared!"

Through the connection of the soul ban, Long Ming's voice came from Luo Xiu's sea of ​​consciousness.

"During the escape of the man surnamed Fan, another martial king appeared. It seems that he is also from the royal family of the Fan family. The two of them fought with the three black-clothed martial kings together." Long Ming said.

Hearing this news, Luo Xiu could not help but frown. A ninth-grade martial arts technique had already involved five martial king-level masters. If this place was not a remote northern wasteland, it was estimated that the martial kings of the ten great families would have been dispatched.

Luo Xiu even suspected that the martial king-level masters of the Fan family might have been on their way here. The fifth martial king who appeared might have come from Tianwu City to pick up Fan Lingyun.

"It's time to take action, otherwise if the martial king comes, I won't have a chance."

When Luo Xiu arrived on the Golden Fire Spirit Lion, the battle between the five martial king-level masters had reached a white-hot level. Everyone had some injuries, and Fan Lingyun was the most embarrassed because he had a jade tablet of the ninth-grade martial arts technique on him and was attacked the most by the three black-clothed martial kings.

"I'll stop them, Prince Lingyun, you go first!"

Standing with Fan Lingyun was a Martial King who looked to be about 30 years old. To have reached the Martial King realm at this age, he was extremely talented.

"What a joke! Fan Jingguang, you have only been a Martial King for ten years. How can you stop us?"

Three Martial Kings in black all approached.

At this time, Fan Lingyun took the opportunity to turn around and escape, leaving Fan Jingguang behind.

But before Fan Lingyun left far, a blazing flame rushed towards him, as fast as a meteor.

"Who is it!"

Fan Lingyun's face changed, and his consciousness sensed that the flying flame was transformed from a monster beast, and on the back of the monster beast stood a figure in a black robe.

Boom!

The two sides collided with each other in an instant, and a monstrous vitality wave broke out.

Although the Golden Fire Spirit Lion had not reached the fifth level and was dizzy and staggering after being hit, its brute force was also amazing. It knocked Fan Lingyun away on the spot, and blood spurted out of its mouth.

In a flash, Luo Xiu also moved, holding the Tongxuan Tiger Fang Sword behind him in his hand, and directly used the 24 times power of Xuantian Change to chop it over.

The black Nether Death Flame condensed into a sword aura under the blessing of the Devouring Void Spirit Fire. Coupled with the 24 times power of Xuantian Change and the battle body comparable to the king level, Luo Xiu's sword was unprecedentedly powerful.

The black flame sword aura carried an oppressive aura, and the space was distorted wherever it passed, and even black marks were cut.

"Asshole!"

Fan Lingyun was furious and swung his sword to block it. A violent force surged, causing his body to fly backwards again, and he spurted out a large mouthful of blood.

And this surprise attack was not over yet, a silver-white dragon body appeared behind him as if teleporting, and a pair of sharp dragon claws with silver light flashing directly grabbed his crown.

After all, Fan Lingyun was also a martial king-level strongman. In the face of danger, he used his spiritual consciousness to control the vitality of heaven and earth to form a light curtain to protect his body and resist the attack of Long Ming's pair of dragon claws.

"Who are you?"

Standing on the sky and stabilizing his body, Fan Lingyun's face was extremely gloomy, revealing a solemn look.

The man in the black robe, the power of a sword was enough to repel him, but the true essence fluctuations were clearly only at the eighth level of the soul refining realm.

And the lion with flames all around was also an extraordinary alien monster, reaching the ninth level of the soul refining realm.

In addition, there was the dragon-shaped monster that appeared and disappeared like a ghost, as if it had the ability to teleport, which was also extraordinary. If it hadn't been for his control of the vitality of heaven and earth to defend, he would have fallen in the previous grab.

"A dying person doesn't need to know who I am."

Luo Xiu's face was covered by the black flames rising from his body. He had no intention of revealing his identity from the beginning, in order to avoid accidents and unnecessary trouble.
