Chapter 397: Strange Phenomena Emerge, Official Crisis

Southwest of the temple.

In the dense forests and mountains, a team of people hid under the shade of towering vegetation, quietly and on high alert.

The team was led by a five-dimensional nobleman wearing golden battle armor, the Golden Eagle Martial Saint of the Feather Clan, who was known as the "Iron-blooded Law Enforcer".

A short call had just ended in the button communication prop in his hand.

"Team Two is trapped, the situation is not optimistic, I'm afraid we won't be able to arrive at the assembly point on time; the task force is temporarily unavailable."

"Got it."

The answer came from the back of the team, concise and to the point.

The Golden Eagle Martial Saint nodded silently.

He pressed his hand, signaling everyone to stand by, and looked up at the sky:

"The detection function of the Sky Eye has failed. For now, we can only try to see if a higher-dimensional perspective can see through the vast mountain fog."

As he spoke, he spread his magnificent golden wings from behind his special armor, and instantly turned into a flash of lightning, cutting through the thick fog and soaring into the sky!

That was his five-phase natural force, the power of light that could clear the fog and reveal the sun.

However, this "fog" was not something that could be easily traversed by ordinary natural forces.

Under the expectant gaze of his tribesmen, the Golden Eagle Martial Saint moved in the sky for a long time, and was finally forced to fold his wings and land.

He bent his knees and supported himself on the thick tree trunk, panting faintly.

The fog was too thick.

Not only could he not tell the direction, but he also consumed a lot of physical strength inexplicably.

Especially the process of taking off, it was like a mountain pressing down on the top of the head. Every inch of ascent was accompanied by excessive consumption. The higher he went, the more difficult it was.

He did not stop there.

Instead, he drew his sword and pointed it to the sky, instantly slashing out countless arcs of light, shooting out in all directions!

The countless birds that were startled fell quietly into the dust before they flapped their wings and flew away. No one was spared where the arcs of light passed.

The sword was sheathed, and a question came from the back of the team:

"What did you see?"

"The fog was too thick, and the edge could not be seen, and the light did not return."

The Golden Eagle Martial Saint said:

"The geographical environment here is very different from the intelligence, and we were ambushed."

...

The west side of the temple.

In the night sky, Ji Ming stared at the darkness in front of him and answered Mr. Lan's question:

"We have entered the opponent's maze, and the next journey will be more twists and turns."

"Maze, I guess you probably have a countermeasure?" Lan Junxian still maintained an elegant demeanor in the dark night fog.

I saw Ji Ming stretched out his hand and patted the griffin beast under his seat, holding the long-handled battle axe tightly, and reminded half jokingly and half seriously: "Please don't open your eyes for the time being."

...

In the deep forest southwest of the temple.

The beams of light shot by the Golden Eagle Martial Saint with all his strength were like a stone sinking into the sea, disappearing in the fog in all directions.

The cold fog not only obscured the team's view, but also devoured the energy and physical strength of the lawful cardholders on the scene like a hungry beast, causing continuous and endless consumption.

"Something is wrong, something is fishy!" The Golden Eagle Martial Saint frowned and looked coldly.

Just as he was about to continue to use the high-level props, a ball of flames broke through the air behind the team!

The flames jumped in the air for a while, quickly swept to both sides, and surrounded the feather tribe.

Under the dazzling golden light, the golden elder of the feather tribe, who was wearing a golden robe and often showed a mask, suddenly walked from the back of the team:

"That is the six-state concept power that only the priesthood cardholders have. The rank is above the sky eye. It is reasonable that you can't deal with it."

She was calm and confident.

The feather tribe cardholders on both sides gave way one after another, and were in awe of this senior priesthood elder. The Golden Eagle Martial Saint also bowed his head in front of the golden elder, restraining his majestic and domineering side.

"Elder Jin."

"Yes."

Elder Jin passed the Golden Eagle Martial Saint and came to the front of the team. He spread his hands and a transparent bowl appeared in his palm.

Seeing this, the Golden Eagle Martial Saint's pupils tightened and his brows frowned slightly: "Are you going to use the priesthood item Wuji Bowl? Why do you need to do this..."

Wuji Bowl is a high-level priesthood item held by the official. With a bowl in hand, the coverage of the priesthood concept power can be expanded several times. It is a weapon for attacking high-dimensional war areas.

"Don't be nervous."

Elder Jin let go of the bowl with both hands and let it float between his palms:

"Right now, this arrogant six-state concept power covers the entire mountain range, thereby weakening and blocking our army's way. Ji Ming and Yu Teng's team may also be deeply affected by it. Although my "purification" power is enough to take care of myself, it is ultimately difficult to do it alone. "

The Golden Eagle immediately understood: "You want to dispel the concept power of the entire mountain and open the way for Ji Ming and Yu Teng!"

"That's right. "

After saying that, Elder Jin exerted force with both hands, and the invisible power poured into the bowl, emitting a strong and dazzling white light!

Elder Jin behind the mask looked directly at the white light, and a brief command slowly poured out from his mouth:

"Extremely clean, disperse--"

Her fingertips flicked the bowl.

Immediately, white light burst out from Elder Jin's palms, and the bright light directly pressed the light of the flame, pouring into the mountains, rivers, and the world!

Like a rushing river, magnificent and magnificent! Wherever it passed, the fog and clouds cleared, and everything was clear.

And all this happened in just a few moments.

The fight of conceptual power often does not require too much complicated preparation and brewing, it is as difficult to know as the shadow, and it moves like thunder.

The flames surrounding the team calmly gathered.

The clouds were cleared and the sun was seen, and there were still followers who were secretly amazed by what they saw: "This is the six-state conceptual power... It has been solved in one breath..."

However, just when everyone's attention was focused on Elder Jin, several commotions outside quickly aroused alarm!

"Ugh, be careful!"

Following the sound, some colleagues were fluttering their wings and leaping into the air with expressions of surprise on their faces, while below them, someone was being dragged by something underground and was sinking uncontrollably.

Looking more closely, except for the ground that was originally surrounded by flames, the surrounding soil has become a man-eating swamp, surging with greedy sounds, like a devil about to eat.

A golden light flashed and split open the swamp, allowing the Yu clan card holder trapped in the swamp to escape.

The Golden Eagle Martial Saint waved his hands expressionlessly and ordered: "Stay alert!"

Then face the front of the team, where the swamp surge is most intense.

Waves of cold laughter have reached everyone's ears through the swamp, and the voice belongs to an old woman:

"Huo Laoya, I never thought that you and I would meet again in this way today!"

As soon as these words came out, all the Yu Clan card holders were shocked.

Not because they recognized the owner of the voice, but because they recognized the three words "Fire Old Crow"! It is the common name of "Bifang", the mythical beast identity card held by Elder Jin!

Golden Eagle Martial Saint secretly looked at Elder Jin beside him.

Although he couldn't see Elder Jin's expression at this situation through the mask, he could be sure that the other party would never be happy about this.

However, the next moment, Elder Jin's slightly hesitant voice came out from behind the mask:

"Crazy python, sister?"

Unexpected response.

The Golden Eagle Martial Saint was shocked by Elder Jin's reaction, and quickly looked at the short, rickety figure emerging from the depths of the swamp.

The figure gradually became clear in front of everyone, and turned into a sixty-year-old woman with a vicissitudes of life but a tough expression. She was dressed in coarse linen clothes and sneered at everyone:

"long time no see."

"you are……"

The sharp eyes of the Golden Eagle Martial Saint gradually widened, and he faced the scene that was happening in front of him with a rare and unbelievable expression: the deceased, the former senior, was currently standing on his hostile side.

Elder Jin quickly regained his composure, skipped the formalities, and directly asked the python old woman:

"If I remember correctly, my old sister should have been killed in a mission more than ten years ago. What happened? Why are you near the Holy Mountain Temple?"

The old python woman snorted coldly, and her smile gradually deepened: "Sister, do you really not know, or are you asking knowingly?"

As she spoke, the swamp under her feet expanded several times in the blink of an eye, firmly surrounding the place where everyone stood. At the same time, the surrounding dense forests have all withered and are being slowly and irreversibly swallowed up by the swamp.

Elder Jin was silent.

The years of more than ten years ago, before and after the God War, are mixed with the history of the internal struggles of the ten official clans. Judging from her many years of experience as an elder, if the experience of the Crazy Python old woman is involved in a certain battle, then it will be difficult to explain the turmoil and entanglement.

Especially since this place is located in the west, it is difficult for colleagues in the Sichuan-Tibet branch to be disconnected.

"Sister, don't you want to talk? Okay, let's wait for a while. Whenever I want to say something, sister, I'm all ears."

Elder Jin always responded with a gentle attitude, and then changed the subject and returned to the topic:

"It's just that the Holy Mountain Temple is of great importance today. As the speaker of the Yu Clan, my sister has to go. For the sake of being a colleague for many years, can I make it convenient for us to go there?"

As expected, the python old woman didn't have much emotional change.

On the contrary, her attitude was extremely firm: "Absolutely impossible."

"What's the reason?"

"It's inconvenient to disclose."

"Then..." Elder Jin frowned slightly, "Sister, do you want to confront me tit for tat?"

When the two sides were at war with each other, the Yu Clan card holders clenched their weapons one after another.

But I heard the Golden Eagle Martial Saint yelling at everyone: "Don't take action against anyone! The person in front of you is a master with an evolutionary level of at least five states and complexes. There is no need to die in vain here."

As for him, he had quickly adjusted his mentality and was ready to face the attack.

The old python woman was his instructor when he was promoted to a powerful person. When she disappeared thirteen years ago, she had already reached the peak of her five forms! If he keeps improving over the years, he may have reached the high level of the six-state priesthood. When the Golden Eagle Martial Saint considered this, he was already prepared to die.

However, Elder Jin reached out and held his shoulder.

"Golden Eagle, take a closer look. The Crazy Python Senior in front of you has not broken through the Heavenly Tribulation and reached the priesthood."

The identification between priests is an indescribable gift in the super-species world. An instinct that determines identity based on energy perception alone.

As he spoke, Elder Jin had already opened a net of flames, covering the swamp in sight in an instant!

"It is said that most of the license holders of the Holy Mountain Organization are degenerates who are troubled by mutations... Old sister, it is still hard for me to imagine that you would stick to this place for such a reason."

Seeing the water in the swamp being quickly evaporated and dried by the flames! The good situation was about to be ruined. The old woman laughed a few times and took a step forward.

On the old face, the smile was banned by coldness:

"Then there's no other way... Since you want to know so much, I might as well show you the desperate measures of the 'Degenerate'."

The moment he finished speaking, Elder Jin's expression changed!

She was keenly aware that in the process of the other party speaking these words, his evolutionary stage miraculously showed the energy state of the six-state priesthood!

"Old sister?"

Just as Elder Jin was about to speak, a painful and suppressed groan came from behind him...

The younger generations of the Feather Clan fell down one after another, holding their throats, including the Golden Eagle Martial Saint, who stared at the front with a painful expression, as if he was suffering from suffocation.

"Hehe... Fire Crow, are you sure you want to pass me?"

The old woman of the Crazy Python spread her hands and calmly made a "pinching" gesture.

Concept power? She has actually reached the position of a god... Elder Jin finally convinced himself of his perception and quickly resisted with an equal concept power!

The Feather Clan license holders behind him got rid of the crisis of dying and breathed a sigh of relief from the pain of "suffocation"...

"Elder Jin, the fog is coming again..." The Golden Eagle Martial Saint panted and looked at the night sky.

When Elder Jin transferred the "purification" concept power to aim at the "suffocation" of the Crazy Python old woman, the restraint with the "lost" concept power carried by the fog naturally dissipated.

The rise and fall of concept power follows the simple "one-to-one" rule. There is no situation where one concept power restrains multiple concept powers at the same time. Unless with the help of the same level of priestly props.

At this moment, the fog rose again, and the blessing effect of the bowl was invalid.

The whole mountain forest will be completely covered by the fog again.

Seeing the blazing flames engulfed by the "suffocating" concept power, and the quagmire spread again, Elder Jin had to deal with the "old friend" in front of him with all his strength, and let the thick fog with the "lost" concept power rage in the mountain again.

...

West side of the temple.

The griffin beast rushed out of the thick fog with a hurricane and flapped its wings in the night sky!

"Caught up."

Ji Ming muttered in his heart.

He wanted to use the "mind's eye" that was about to break through to the concept power to break through the fog, but the gap in the rank was still extremely difficult to cross.

Fortunately, the fog suddenly faded a lot in the middle of the way, giving him the opportunity to concentrate on breaking through. It was also with this opportunity that he and Lan Junxian rushed out of the thick fog in one breath!

Seeing the real temple with my own eyes.

"It was a close call!"

Lan Junxian couldn't help but sigh. He looked at Ji Ming and praised sincerely: "I don't know if I should congratulate you at this time. Your vision is about to enter the realm of conceptual power, right?"

"Thank you for your good words. Let's get through this level first."

Ji Ming held the battle axe in his hand, and the axe blade approved the three black shadows flashing in the darkness.

Lan Junxian's mouth corners raised, and the sword was unsheathed.

However, when the three figures approached, when he saw the other party's face clearly, he couldn't help but retract the blade:

"You are... predators?!"

After a moment of hesitation, the black claws instantly left cuts on Lan Junxian's spotless suit, and blood overflowed from the body surface, and then turned into a transparent fluid and fell into the darkness.

...

At this time, inside the temple.

Under the earnest gaze of the guardian centipede of Yu Shenshan and the maid of the Virgin Mary, the pure white Virgin Mary statue shattered!
