Chapter 82: Fog Ghost Shadow, Hunting (1)
After making the decision, Su Mu and Liu Leqing set off again.
At this moment, the drought in Jizhou was even more severe.
It was truly a barren land, a land full of starving people!
Hanba’s strength was increasing continuously!
This made Su Mu’s sense of crisis grow stronger and stronger.
In addition, Su Mu and Liu Leqing encountered many demons on their way to the place recorded in the secret letter.
There were skeleton demons, undeads, and some unrated ghosts.
In their eyes, these low-level demons and ghosts were naturally nothing.
However, in the eyes of ordinary people, they were terrifying existences that could take their lives!
The more commoners died, the more demons there were in Jizhou.
The more demons there were in Jizhou, the more people would die.
As a result, it became a vicious cycle!
The difficulty for ordinary people to survive this disaster was even higher than ascending to the heavens!
Su Mu had personally experienced it in the first instance dungeon.
Now that he thought about it, it still shocked him!
This further strengthened Su Mu’s belief in becoming stronger and climbing higher!
Only with power could one survive in this chaotic world and protect the people they loved!
Vaguely, Su Mu seemed to have understood the meaning of the words “Dao Heart”.
※※※
A few days later, Su Mu and Yue Qing arrived at their destination.
This was a summer resort built deep in the mountains.
Not only was it hidden, but its defensive strength was also very high.
Just from the outer layer, Su Mu had already discovered several Xiantian Realm warriors patrolling back and forth.
Just by looking at this formation, one could tell that there must be some kind of secret hidden in this villa!
“Brother Xiao Mu, wait for me. This time, let me help you find out.”
Liu Leqing stopped Su Mu, who was about to sneak in. He took out a talisman and folded it into a small paper crane.
“Heaven and Earth are boundless, Heaven and Earth borrow laws. Go!”
Liu Leqing made a hand seal, and the paper crane flapped its wings and came to life.
Then, he concealed his figure and quietly sneaked in.
As the paper crane snuck in, many bright lines appeared in front of Liu Leqing.
These lines quickly interweaved, and they actually showed the places where the paper crane went!
It felt like a holographic projection.
Su Mu was surprised.
It also made him more curious about Qi Practitioners.
When the opportunity arises, Su Mu must become a Qi Practitioner!
..
After the Taoist technique paper crane entered, the structure of this summer resort gradually appeared in front of Su Mu and Liu Leqing.
Even the defensive forces inside were marked out!
However, just as he was about to enter the inner part, Liu Leqing’s expression suddenly changed, and he quickly formed a hand seal.
“Not good! A very powerful martial artist has discovered my little crane. He should be a martial arts grandmaster!”
As he spoke, Liu Leqing wanted to control the paper crane to escape.
However, the next moment, her body trembled slightly, and the holographic projection dissipated.
“Are you alright?”
Su Mu asked worriedly as he supported Liu Leqing.
In this life, he had turned into a corpse halfway through his life and could now speak.
Other than that, their bodies were softer than ordinary zombies.
After advancing into a flying zombie and shedding its fur, he might be able to disguise as a normal person.
“It’s fine. It’s just a small Daoist technique. It won’t do much harm if it backfires.”
“However, there is a martial arts grandmaster in this villa. He is very strong! Very strong!”
“My little crane was discovered when it was a hundred meters away from him, and it was destroyed by him in less than half a breath.”
Liu Leqing said as he adjusted his breathing.
From the looks of it, she was indeed fine.
Su Mu relaxed and said to Liu Leqing:
“It’s okay. I’m looking for a martial arts grandmaster! Let’s see if he will send someone to look for us.”
“If we do, we’ll deal with these people first.”
Hearing this, Liu Leqing’s eyes suddenly lit up.”
“Brother Xiao Mu, if they really send people out to find us, I have a way that might work!”
“Oh? What is it?”
“It’s such a thing,”
※※※※※※
Su Mu and Liu Leqing’s guesses were correct.
Not long after, a group of elite warriors charged out of the manor.
The leader was a Xiantian Realm warrior. He looked a little annoyed.
“Damn it, I can’t even see a sow in this lousy place, let alone a woman! When would this life end?!”
Zhou Tianyang cursed as he led his men out of the villa and started searching the area.
Hearing this, a soldier beside him immediately leaned over and whispered,
“Brother Zhou, keep your voice down! If the person inside heard it, it would be bad!”
Zhou Tianyang shrunk his neck when he heard that. A look of fear flashed across his eyes.
However, he still forced himself to maintain his face and pretended to be indifferent as he said,
“Isn’t he just a martial arts grandmaster? I’ll cultivate for a few more years and become a martial arts grandmaster.”
“And stronger than his old bones!”
“Don’t you think so?”
At this time, they were already quite a distance away from the manor.
Everyone thought that the person in the villa probably wouldn’t listen, so they nodded repeatedly and flattered him.
As a result, Zhou Tianyang’s face looked a little better.
He was originally a general guarding a large city, and his days were very carefree!
In the end, he was inexplicably transferred to this godforsaken place a few days ago, and all his food, drink, and fun were gone!
Forget it.
What was worse was that there was a martial arts grandmaster in the villa who was above Zhou Tianyang!
This made Zhou Tianyang, who was used to being free and undisciplined, extremely uncomfortable.
If not for the fact that the other party was terrifyingly strong, Zhou Tianyang would have rebutted him.
But now…Zhou Tianyang only dared to make a fuss when he was far away from the grandmaster.
..
This group of people began to search the forest around the villa.
After searching for a long time, they did not see a single person. This made them relax.
“What invaders? I think that old thing doesn’t like me and is deliberately playing with me!”
“Don’t f * cking search anymore. Let’s gather together and rest. We’ll go back later so that we don’t have to listen to his nonsense.”
Zhou Tianyang slumped to the ground, plucked a blade of grass, and started chewing.
The boss took the lead and the soldiers below naturally followed suit.
They gathered together with a smile and chatted casually, occasionally telling a few dirty jokes.
However, when everyone arrived, Zhou Tianyang suddenly realized that something was amiss.
Including him, there were a total of 20 people on their team.
But now, why were there only 19 left?
“Where’s Little Six? Where did Xiao Liuzi go? Did anyone see him?”
These people were all Zhou Tianyang’s old subordinates. He knew who was missing at a glance and immediately asked loudly.
“Little Six? I didn’t see it!”
“Oh yeah, why don’t you see the little sixth?”
“Did this kid go to the toilet?”
“Xiao Liuzi, Xiao Liuzi!”
Everyone communicated with each other and realized that the soldier nicknamed ” Little Six ” had really disappeared!
Zhou Tianyang stood up immediately, and the others followed suit.
Everyone had a bad feeling!
In this place, in front of a martial arts grandmaster, they were just small fries.
However, before this, each of them had held an official position and were generals with extraordinary strength!
That “Little Six” was a First Rated Warrior.
But now, it had disappeared without a sound. This was too strange!
..
“Everyone, gather around me! Hurry up!”
Although Zhou Tianyang was lazy, he was not an idiot.
After realizing that something was wrong, he immediately wanted to gather the rest of the people to his side.
However, at this moment, a thick fog suddenly rose from the forest and instantly swallowed everyone.
The strange fog made Zhou Tianyang feel even more threatened!
As soon as the thick fog rose, he reached out to grab one of the people in front of him, thinking that he could keep one person alive.
However, after grabbing it, the figure dissipated into a cloud of fog and fused with the surrounding environment.
“Bewildering Formation!”
Zhou Tianyang thought to himself. His expression darkened.
At this moment, he finally understood that the person in the villa was not teasing him. An enemy had really invaded!
To be able to cultivate to this stage, Zhou Tianyang had naturally experienced countless battles. It was just that he had relaxed a lot in recent years.
Xiao Liuzi disappeared, a maze appeared, and everyone was separated.
He suddenly felt the tension he felt when he first entered the battlefield, and his entire person became energetic.
Zhou Tianyang’s Stellar Energy was ready to be unleashed. His sharp eyes scanned the surroundings, searching for anything suspicious.
At the same time, his breathing was very stable, without the slightest panic.
Zhou Tianyang knew very well in his heart
As long as this dragged on, the victor would definitely be them!
This place was not far from the villa.
As long as they discovered something unusual, reinforcements would come to help them.
Even that person might be dispatched!
No matter what kind of person was behind this maze, they were definitely not a match for that martial arts grandmaster.
Otherwise, the person behind the scenes wouldn’t have used such small tricks.
..
Zhou Tianyang was calm, but his subordinates were not.
There was no other reason but the difference in strength.
As a Connate Warrior, Zhou Tianyang did not panic.
However, the soldiers under him were all First Rated Warriors.
Little Six, who was also a First Rated Warrior, had disappeared without a trace. How could they not panic?
“Brother Zhou, Brother Zhou! Old Huang and Ma Zi? Where are you guys? Where is he?”
Jiang Cheng shouted loudly, but he received no response.
He seemed to be the only one left in this dense forest!
This sense of loneliness was somewhat unbearable.
The worst thing was that Jiang Cheng vaguely felt a strange gaze staring at him like a poisonous snake.
Every time he searched, he couldn’t find a trace!
This feeling made his mouth dry, his scalp numb, and his breathing quickened.
Just as Jiang Cheng was getting more and more panicked, a familiar figure suddenly appeared in the thick fog in front of him.
He focused his eyes and couldn’t help but be overjoyed.
This figure was none other than the missing Little Six.
At this moment, she was even waving at him!
“Where did you go, kid? You scared us so much that we thought you…”
Jiang Cheng said as he walked towards the figure.
But when he got closer, the smile on his face froze, and fear filled his eyes.
He saw that Little Six was bleeding from his seven orifices, his eyes were white, and there were four bloody holes on his neck. Black blood was flowing out!
He was clearly dead!
However, at this moment, he was still waving at Jiang Cheng, as if he was calling him to die together!
“What the hell is this?”
Jiang Cheng felt his scalp explode, and he retreated in terror.
However, before he could take a few steps back, he crashed into something.
He felt as if he had crashed into an iron wall, and his entire body went numb from the shock.
Jiang Cheng trembled as he turned his head to look behind him. What he saw was a terrifying zombie covered in corpse hair!
The terrifying corpse claw was raised high!
” Ahhhhh!!!”
Jiang Cheng let out a shrill scream.
Then, he felt a sharp pain in his neck. It had been pierced!
※※※
The shriek reverberated in the dense forest, causing Zhou Tianyang’s face to darken.
No matter how loudly they shouted, they could not summon their companions.
This meant that the Bewildering Formation had soundproof abilities.
But now, he could hear this scream. What did this mean?
It was clearly the person who had set up the formation who had deliberately let them hear it so that they would be confused!
If Zhou Tianyang could hold his ground, could his subordinates?
Even if they could hold on, could they resist the enemy hiding in the fog?
At the thought of this, Zhou Tianyang broke out in a cold sweat.
He had a vague feeling that this group of people had become prey in a cage!
An invisible ghost was hunting them!
