C73 Strange Beasts
No matter how determined a person is, they will still starve when it's time to starve.
Even if he could control his body, he still couldn't control his mind.
The two disciples of Qing Liu Peak who were chewing on wild fruits could not help but feel that the fruits in their hands were unusually bland and tasteless.
As for the two disciples of Rock Peak, they were looking at the grilled venison in Ye Heng's hands with eager eyes. They kept smashing their mouths, as if they were imagining the scene of eating the delicious food in big mouthfuls.
Just as they were eating the meat and smelling the smell.
From the dense forest on the left side of the cliff, the sound of hurried footsteps could be heard from afar.
At this moment, everyone put down the things in their hands and silently raised their vigilance.
The sound of footsteps did not seem to be human footsteps. And it was far more than one.
"Bang! Bang!"
The sound of footsteps became even more rapid, as if it was being played in everyone's ears.
In the next moment, in the dark forest, dozens of Shadow Wolves in the late stage of the Wisdom Opening Realm jumped out of the forest like dumplings.
This number was too terrifying. Everyone's face flashed with a trace of gloominess.
However, they did not have much fear.
After all, all of them were Eighth Layer of Essence Vortex Stage and above experts. Any one of them was ranked in the top 50 of the Outer Sect.
Although it was somewhat troublesome, it wasn't a difficult problem.
"Everyone, prepare for the battle. " Luh Yixun let out a loud shout and slapped his Inventory Bag. He took out two large sabers and held them tightly in his hands. He looked like he was ready to fight.
However, in the next moment, a scene that stunned everyone appeared.
They saw the dozens of Shadow Wolves. It was as if they couldn't see this group of people. Their speed didn't slow down at all as they flew past them, not stopping for even a second.
Who can tell me what's going on? Could it be that the Shadow Wolf has changed from vegetarian to vegetarian?
Everyone had blank expressions on their faces, not understanding what had happened.
At this moment, the sound of restless footsteps could be heard once again.
Everyone who had just relaxed their vigilance subconsciously tightened their grip on the weapons in their hands.
"Bang. . . Bang!"
Accompanied by the dull sound of footsteps, more than ten thirty feet tall single-horned rhinos rushed out of the dense forest. As if they did not see this large group of people, they continued to run forward without stopping.
A trace of uneasiness spread in Ye Heng's heart. Judging from the unusual behavior of the Strange Beast just now, it was very likely that they were hiding from something.
In an instant, the white skeleton of the Shadow Wolf that Ye Heng had found in the forest appeared in front of his eyes. A strong sense of crisis emerged from the bottom of his heart.
"These Strange Beasts seem to be hiding from something. Let's hurry up and leave. " Ye Heng's gaze fell on Luh Yixun. He asked.
After all, he was the leader of the second team, so his opinion was very important.
He thought Luh Yixun would agree immediately, but he made the opposite choice.
"No, we can't leave. Maybe the disciples of the Ghost Sect are there?" Luh Yixun said righteously with a matter-of-fact expression on his face.
"Removing the Ghost Sect is the duty of Hao Yuan Sect. If we let them go here, how would we have the face to meet them? Why would we hand over such an important task to our inner sect elders?" Luh Yixun spoke in an unusually passionate manner. Spittle shot out in all directions, as if he had already determined that the disciples behind them were the disciples of the Ghost Sect.
The worst situation had occurred. Ye Heng sighed in his heart.
If this Luh Yixun had pulled out the flag of the sect, then if Ye Heng fled by himself now, even if he returned to the Hao Yuan Sect alive, he was afraid that he wouldn't have a good ending.
"Let's go and investigate the situation there now. Is there anyone who is against it?" Luh Yixun asked the crowd as if he knew the answer.
Under such circumstances, no one would stand out to refute him. After all, the sect's flag was really stressful.
Even the enthusiastic Junior Brother Luo didn't stand out to refute Luh Yixun at this moment.
Thus, under Luh Yixun's lead, the group began to search in the direction of the Strange Beasts that had fled earlier.
Luh Yixun was walking at the front. Behind him were the two disciples of Rock Peak, and behind them were the people of Qing Liu Peak.
Ye Heng, Xe Xingyi, and Bai Yun followed behind the disciples of Qing Liu Peak. They were in the middle of the group.
Behind them were the disciples of Fist Peak and Sword Peak.
As if they had already made an agreement, the four disciples of Fist Peak and Sword Peak walked side by side. Their Qi locked onto Ye Heng who was walking in front of them.
Are they ready to attack?
Ye Heng's heart trembled. All the pores on his body had shrunk. His eyes were shining with a sharp light, and faint Yuan energy was hovering around his body.
It was impossible to make Ye Heng surrender obediently. This was something that would never happen even if he was beaten to death.
Moreover, if the Illusion Devouring Tapir that was sleeping in his tattoo could be awakened, the situation would be reversed instantly.
Among the two disciples of the Sword Peak who were walking in the back. . . The cold-looking young man called Hanyu impatiently said to his senior brother, "Senior brother Mu, when can I make a move? I want to go back and practice my sword. "
"You think I don't want to? We must wait until he's alone before making a move, and we can't let the other disciples realize that it was our Sword Peak that did it. When the time comes, we can frame the Fist Peak for the crime. " Mu Zipei's handsome face revealed a trace of ruthlessness.
"Senior brother Mu, this isn't good," Hanyu said with some hesitation.
"Hmph, are you senior brother or am I senior brother?" Mu Zipei glared at Hanyu and said with a trace of anger.
Hearing this, Hanyu shrank his head and did not dare to say anything more.
On the other side, Sun Yi, who was practicing fist techniques, was also having a secret meeting.
"Sun Er, when the situation is in chaos, we will take the opportunity to kill that Ye Heng, and then throw the blame on those people from the Sword Peak. " Sun Yi said with a sinister smile on his face.
"You can even think of such an evil method, Sun Yi. That's amazing. Alright, I have to admit that you are a little smarter than me. " Sun Er said with some admiration. He gestured with his fingers, and it was only an inch long.
"That's for sure. I have long seen through their evil intentions. When the time comes, we will follow them and let them fight half to death with that Ye Heng. Then, we will sit back and reap the benefits. " Sun Er's praise made Sun Yi feel a little smug. He subconsciously revealed all of his plans in advance.
These two burly men were unexpectedly careless. Although they deliberately suppressed their voices, they did not use Yuan energy to cover their voices. Naturally, Mu Zipei and Hanyu, who were not far away, could hear them clearly.
"Haha, you want to sit and reap the benefits? What a foolish dream. These two big idiots don't even know how to keep their conversation confidential. " Mu Zipei glanced at Sun Yi and Sun Er with disdain from the corner of his eye and said to Hanyu in a low voice.
Of course, Mu Zipei's voice must have been wrapped with Yuan energy, and only Hanyu could hear it.
"En, they are really stupid. They don't even know such a basic thing. In other words, can senior brother go back now? I still need to practice my sword. " Hanyu nodded in agreement, then tilted his head and said to Mu Zipei.
Hearing this, the veins on Mu Zipei's forehead popped up, and his anger slowly rose.
This was the 30th time Hanyu had told him on the way that he was going to practice his sword.
My god, why is my junior brother a sword fanatic? Three sentences without leaving the practice of the sword, this is crazy.
Oh my god, hurry up and slash down a bolt of lightning, splitting my bullshit junior brother's head open.
Mu Zipei was a little crazy. He took a deep breath and calmed down his anger. He said lightly, "When we go back, I will ask Master to let you practice for ten years. No one will disturb you. "
"Really? Then I will thank Senior Brother Mu first. I will definitely complete this task properly and then go back to practice for ten years. " Hanyu said firmly, his eyes shining with excitement.
Mu Zipei wiped the cold sweat off his forehead and forced a smile.
His junior brother Hanyu's strength and talent were all top notch. But why did it feel like his brain was lacking tendons? He would always say those words that would make people furious.
Just as Fist Peak and Sword Peak were having their own thoughts, under Luh Yixun's lead, they passed through the group of countless Strange Beasts.
Just like the previous Strange Beasts, they also fled in panic.
After a few breaths, they almost didn't see a single Strange Beast.
It seemed like they were gradually approaching the thing that caused these late stage Zhi Kai Strange Beasts to escape with their lives.
"Haha, disciples of the Ghost Sect, prepare to die!" Luh Yixun looked delighted as he shouted loudly. Yuan energy surged wildly around his body, and his Qi soared. His speed suddenly increased by another level.
The people behind Luh Yixun had no choice but to increase their speed as well.
Ye Heng, who was in the middle of the crowd, only felt that the surroundings were strangely quiet. There wasn't even the sound of insects. The atmosphere was very strange.
In the next moment, his field of vision suddenly widened.
It turned out that he had walked to the side of the raging river at the outer perimeter of Gloomy Jungle.
However, at this moment, there were countless skeletons of Strange Beasts lying on the side of the raging river.
Ye Heng and the others didn't see wrongly. It was those ghastly white skeletons. Looking at them, there were over a thousand of them? Or more than ten thousand of them?
Furthermore, what was even more shocking was that all the meat on the Strange Beast's body had been eaten clean. Not even a trace of meat was left behind.
This was exactly the same as the Shadow Wolf skeleton that Ye Heng had seen in the forest.
At this moment, everyone was stunned.
They had no choice but to be shocked by the scene in front of them.
Even Luh Yixun, who was charging at the front, felt the strange atmosphere. He couldn't help but stop in his tracks, and look at the sea of Strange Beast bones in front of him in astonishment.
"Hu!"
Suddenly, a whistling sound of wind came from the sky above everyone's heads.
