Chapter 897 Hidden Crisis
While speaking, Xu Hei was also observing secretly.
The middle-aged monk looked around, his consciousness constantly sweeping underground, as if searching for something.
As for the old man in front of him, he looked at Xu Hei and said, "Is there anything unusual here?"
While speaking, waves of strange rhythms came into Xu Hei's ears. This is a kind of rhythm that affects the mind, which can make low-level monks inadvertently tell the truth and cannot lie.
Xu Hei subconsciously said, "There is a strange sound underground..."
Before he finished speaking, the middle-aged monk immediately said, "Found it!"
"Swoosh! Swoosh!"
The two disappeared at the same time, like a light and shadow, drilling deep into the ground. That position was exactly where Xu Hei had dug before.
The next second——
"Boom!!"
A violent explosion sounded, and Xu Hei and the horse were directly blown away. The horse turned into blood mist on the spot, deader than dead.
Xu Hei was also shocked and flew thousands of feet away, spitting blood. He ignored his injuries and forcibly called on the spiritual power he had recovered before, absorbed it on his feet, and ran wildly towards the distance.
Fortunately, the movement over there did not affect him, but gradually went away.
Not long after, he disappeared at the end of the desert.
"What the hell?"
Xu Hei panted heavily, with lingering fear.
The appearance of the cultivators from Feilingtai here is probably related to him, but the two people just now seemed to be tracking something and ignored him.
And the mysterious monster underground is likely to be the thing being tracked.
"Don't worry about it for now, it's important to escape."
Xu Hei rolled and crawled, fleeing in the direction he came from.
Losing his horse, Xu Hei could only walk and take Xu Bai away. But his physical strength could only support the time of an incense stick.
At this time, Xu Bai on Xu Hei's neck suddenly emitted a faint green light, and in this green light, Xu Hei's tired body automatically recovered.
This recovery speed is much better than eating sandworms!
"Life Law!"
Xu Hei felt the power of the law and ran faster, escaping thousands of feet away in one breath.
But this green light did not last long and dissipated.
Xu Hei stopped where he was, looking at the unconscious white snake on his neck, and said: "Xu Bai, thank you!"
Xu Hei took a step, dragging his tired body, and moved towards the direction of Qingshan Gate.
This time, it took Xu Hei three days to find the people of Qingshan Gate.
After four days, this group of people was still waiting for him.
"Brother Xu, you are finally back!"
Gu Qianqian hurried over and was relieved to see Xu Hei safe and sound.
Although it was said that they would only wait for two days, they still waited for four days. One was Hei Huang's strong request, and the other was that with Xu Hei there, their safety factor could be greatly improved.
"What happened?" Xu Yanran asked.
"We were attacked by sandworms and lost our horses..." Xu Hei made up a reason and said, "I will compensate you according to the price."
"It's good that the people are fine."
The crowd reorganized themselves and set off immediately to the target city.
They had been out for too long, so they had to speed up the progress to avoid any accidents.
"What happened?" Hei Huang sent a voice message.
Xu Hei took a deep breath and said, "Fei Lingtai."
He gave Hei Huang a rough description of what happened before.
"I'm afraid they are here to catch us." Hei Huang said.
"What will happen if we are caught by Fei Lingtai?" Xu Hei asked hurriedly.
"Those who ascend from the mortal world have to register at Fei Lingtai and then be sent to mine or something. This is the standard procedure." Hei Huang said.
"What?" Xu Hei's face changed at first, and then he looked strange and asked, "No! How did you know?"
"From the ancient books."
"What ancient books?"
"Jiang Liuyu's ancient books."
"..."
Xu Hei was speechless.
Logically speaking, Feilingtai doesn't look like an evil force, and the old man's questioning was just spiritual induction, not soul-searching.
It can be seen that even if he is caught, his life will not be in danger!
However, Xu Hei's cultivation has not yet recovered, and he doesn't want to have too much contact with people of high realms!
You must be on guard against others.
What's more, he has a magical object like the Demon God Cauldron on him. The Jiang family has set their sights on him and will definitely focus on investigating people who ascended from the mortal world.
The Jiang family has repeatedly descended to the mortal world and wantonly destroyed the rules of the mortal world. There may be Jiang family pawns in Feilingtai.
When he thought of this, Xu Hei was determined that he must not contact people from Feilingtai. This is a big trouble!
Heihuang also realized something. He has been meditating and practicing these days to recover with all his strength.
For the next seven days, everyone did not encounter any trouble.
Seven days later, a magnificent ancient city appeared at the end of the sight.
This city, called Tiandou City, is located in the west of the human territory and is an inconspicuous small city.
There are many families, sects and forces in the city. Qingshanmen is just a very inconspicuous small sect. The most powerful sect leader Jiang Qingshan is only in the early stage of Yuanying.
If you want to gain a foothold in Tiandou City and occupy a piece of land, you must have at least the cultivation of the God Transformation Stage.
It is said that the city lord of Tiandou City is a virtual cultivator who will only appear when the city encounters a disaster.
After learning about the information of Tiandou City, the group entered the city.
…………
Deep in the golden desert.
Two figures with disheveled hair and blood all over their bodies hovered in the air, gasping for breath.
One of them had a broken arm, which was slowly growing. The other was not much better. The ancient seal magic weapon in his hand was full of cracks, and his breath was weak. He was taking the pill and refining it quickly.
"Brother, why don't you ask for support? We have been chasing and killing this beast for seven days, but we have not been able to kill it. Instead, our souls have been injured. If this continues, I am afraid that something will happen, or even be exhausted to death!" The middle-aged man next to him panted.
Half a month ago, Feilingtai received an order to go to the place where the space storm occurred to investigate whether there were any mortal ascenders.
But as soon as they arrived here, they were attacked by a void beast, and the first batch of investigators died on the spot.
Afterwards, Feilingtai sent the two of them to reinforce and hunt down the void beast.
Who knew that the strength of this beast was far beyond their expectations. Even they, who were in the middle stage of breaking the void, burned their souls and failed to take it down repeatedly, but were injured instead.
As for the investigation of the suspected mortal ascender, it had long been forgotten.
"This beast was injured by my Soul-Breaking Seal. It can't hold on for much longer. Let's fight again. I'm 80% sure I can kill it." The green-shirted old man said fiercely.
The two discussed for a while and soon established the next plan.
"This space storm is really harmful. No ascenders appeared, but a void beast appeared instead." The green-shirted middle-aged man shook his head, distressed.
At this time, the old man's mind flashed, and he suddenly thought of something.
"Wait! An ascender from the mortal world?"
The green-shirted old man's pupils shrank, and he quickly recalled the previous scene.
