Chapter 292: In the End, They Are a Group
At first, he even suspected that the rest of the magic weapons had fallen into the hands of Shi Chun and others. However, he changed his mind and realized that the formation had collapsed at that time, and those magic weapons had been blown in all directions in the explosion. They had long been buried by large and small ice blocks, so it was impossible to find them all easily.
He also doubted whether Shi Chun really had a way to find the divine fire quickly, but he had just seen two more divine fires. How could so many divine fires appear by chance?
He denied all his suspicions, but he seized on this one suspicious point and interrupted to ask.
Shi Chun said: "If you break your promise, I can at least destroy your magic weapon and cause you some losses. Of course, you can also use other things as collateral. I think the value of your master is not less than that magic weapon. It's up to you to use you as collateral or another magic weapon as collateral."
Yuan Yao: "If that's the case, do you guys have to offer someone as collateral?"
Shi Chun agreed immediately, "Sure, as long as you are willing to be a hostage, I will also give you two people as hostages."
He glanced at the people on Xu Anchang's side and counted them quickly. There were still six of them, so two less wouldn't be a big problem.
Yuan Yao's mouth tightened, and as he was thinking, Gu Lianni threw something to Shi Chun, ending the bargaining directly.
It was none other than the activation compass of the Locking Yuan Array.
For Gu Lianni, there was no need to consider this choice at all. The only remaining compass was of no use at all and was far less important than Yuan Yao's safety. It was impossible to take risks with Yuan Yao's safety.
Then he swore directly: "I swear, as long as you can hand over the quick method to find the divine fire as agreed, I promise to give you the full set of lock element array, and promise not to embarrass you again afterwards. If you break this oath, I, the head of Shudao Mountain, will not die a good death!"
Then he put his hands on his hips and changed the subject, "Shi Chun, my sincerity is here, you'd better not play any more tricks, otherwise I guarantee that you will die miserably!"
There were many people with different expressions in the group at Shudao Mountain. It seemed a bit strange that a daughter would always swear such a poisonous oath with her father's safety.
Wu Jinliang couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth. He found that the simplest principle in doing business is to make the other party feel that it is profitable, then it will be difficult to fail.
Shi Chun looked at the compass in his hand. Although he didn't know whether it was real or not, he had seen it on the ice field before and believed that it could not be faked in a short time.
Gu Lianni: "Why, do you think there is something wrong with the thing?"
Shi Chun asked suspiciously, "Why do I feel like you agreed too easily? Are there any traps waiting for me?"
Gu Lianni said coldly: "If you feel relaxed, you can try a more difficult method, as long as you can fight your way out!"
Shi Chun stopped talking about this topic and turned his head to give Wu Jinliang a look, "Jinliang, where did they take the magic weapon? You know the location. You lead the way."
Wu Jinliang understood, said "oh", and took out the wind scales.
Yuan Yao's gaze fell on Wu Jinliang, and a trace of vigilance flashed in his eyes. His fellow junior brother had reported that he saw with his own eyes that Wu Jinliang killed two disciples of Shudao Mountain, and he killed them in an instant with one move. Moreover, more than one person saw it, so it was definitely not false.
Those were two junior brothers who were at the highest level of martial arts. If they were to be killed easily without the use of magic weapons, not only him, but even my junior uncle couldn't do it.
It was only after receiving the report that I found out that Wu Jinliang was actually a hidden master, whose strength was probably even greater than Shi Chun. He didn't even make any appearance during the Meteor Rain Conference, he was hiding too deeply.
This kind of person is the most terrifying!
An idea flashed through his mind, and he suddenly intervened: "You thirteen people will ride on one wind scale!"
So Shi Chun, who had just put away the compass, waved to his people and said, "Do as he says."
Well, whether it was Xu Anchang's side or Mingshan Sect's side, they all quietly cooperated with Shi Chun's decision, which seemed to prove that Shi Chun had a very decisive status among these people.
They are not stupid. They all know that Shi Chun is up to something. How could they have any magical weapon that can quickly find the sacred fire? How could there be another group of people holding the magical weapon and using it? It is obvious that he is trying to trick the people of Shudao Mountain.
I don't know how they are trying to trick me. If I don't understand, I can only cooperate quietly.
However, the Mingshan Sect members who had seen the Locking Yuan Formation on the ice field all knew that at this time, the entire set of Locking Yuan Formation instruments brought in by Shu Daoshan had all fallen into the hands of the eldest leader.
The wind scales swept up thirteen people and took them into the air.
All around, the people of Shudao Mountain were also divided into ten groups, surrounding Shi Chun and others from all sides and accompanying them in their flight, keeping a close eye on their every move along the way.
Shi Chun allowed himself to be monitored without saying a word.
Before leaving the Iron Forest, Gu Lianni looked back at the terrain, memorized the route, and prepared to get the magic weapon to find the sacred fire, and then rush here as soon as possible to find the sacred fire.
On the way, Xu Anchang wanted to ask several times where the other group of people with magical weapons came from, and wanted to ask Shi Chun how to end the situation.
However, seeing the people from Shudao Mountain approaching and watching him with a fierce look in their eyes, he could only keep his mouth tight and said nothing.
The group first flew towards the exit. When they were about to reach the exit, Wu Jinliang changed the flight route and flew in the direction pointed by Qi Yuannong, the leader of the Ao Yan Sect. He flew higher and higher to have a wider field of vision for observation.
After a while, I saw a large handprint-like terrain appear on the ground. I felt that I had gone astray, so I made appropriate adjustments.
After flying all the way and passing the terrain pointed out by Qi Yuannong several times, the vast loess wasteland finally appeared in the high-altitude vision. After flying into the country and searching for a while, they carefully flew to the central area that Qi Yuannong mentioned.
After circling in the sky, Wu Jin lowered his flying altitude and said to Shi Chun, "That's it. I can't remember clearly. You think about it." Shi Chun understood what he meant. He had activated the special ability of his right eye and carefully looked at the environment below.
He was really worried that the people from Qianyan Sect had already found the sacred fire and ran away.
After careful identification, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and discovered that his judgment was correct. The sacred fire was indeed not so easy to find.
He raised his hand and pointed to where there were more people, indicating the landing site.
So Shi Chun immediately controlled the wind scales and descended there, finally landing on the edge of a pit.
Yuan Yao waved his hand, and the personnel landed quickly, surrounding Shi Chun and his gang again.
Gu Lianni floated in the air and observed for a while, but she didn't see anyone. After landing, she asked Shi Chun, "Where is the person you mentioned?"
Shi Chun pondered and said, "Miss Gu, you have troops and I have methods. It would be beneficial for both of us to cooperate. I hope you will consider the cooperation again. I really have two sacred fires and I am willing to offer them to you as a token of my sincerity."
As soon as these words came out, Gu Lianni instantly became extremely alert, pointing at Shi Chun and warning, "Don't try this on me, don't play tricks on me again, where is the person, where is the person you mentioned?"
Not only him, but the people in Shudao Mountain also became highly alert.
Shi Chun was speechless. He didn't know what these people were thinking. They believed the roundabout things, but would never believe the divine fire.
He wanted to fight for it one last time, but since he couldn't communicate, he had to give up. He suddenly cast a spell and shouted loudly: "Gong Shixi, Brother Gong, don't hide. We are one. Come out and see us."
The reason why he knew the name of the leader of Qianyan Sect was that when he first entered the Divine Fire Domain, he asked Wu Jinliang and others to inquire about it.
The loud voice echoed in the surrounding area, but no one responded.
Gong Shixi, who was hiding in an underground passage, was listening at a light-transmitting hole as big as his head. Upon hearing the words, he looked at the people around him with a puzzled look, his eyes asking for advice.
Why did he hide? Of course, he discovered a stranger falling from the sky.
He thought he was just passing by, but he actually called him by his name, which confused him on the spot. What's going on? What do you mean he's one of us? Do you know him?
Several accomplices around him shook their heads slightly, indicating that they didn't know him.
One of them whispered faintly, "Glancing at the color of their clothes and the number of people, they look like they are from Shudao Mountain."
"Shudao Mountain..." Gong Shixi muttered, becoming more and more confused. What did it mean that the people from Shudao Mountain came to call themselves their own people? Did they think he was stupid?
Shi Chun used his right eye to see a group of people hiding underground like grandchildren, not daring to move, and immediately said to Gu Lianni: "They must be scared after seeing so many people and not knowing what's going on."
He raised his hand and pointed to where the group of people were hiding. "They should be hiding underground. Just blow up the ground and you'll know."
Gu Lianni immediately tilted her head to signal.
Yuan Yao swung his hand and a black light flew out, hitting the place where Shi Chun pointed. Bang, yellow earth exploded and the ground collapsed.
Amid the exploding smoke, a metal sphere as big as a fist flew back, spinning around and was put into Yuan Yao's sleeve with a wave of his hand.
Shi Chun and others' eyelids twitched as they watched, and then they saw another glowing magic weapon.
The collapsed ground then cracked, and five figures jumped out from it. They were Gong Shixi and others.
Shi Chun chose the location quite accurately. Among the people who dispersed on the 20th, it was more likely that there was a leader in the place where people were more concentrated, not to mention that he had obvious demonic energy.
Sure enough, there were people there. Gu Lianni and others immediately waved their sleeves and cast spells to sweep away the yellow dust that was floating over.
Gong Shixi and others who were not far away looked at the group in front of them with gloomy faces. After a careful look, they found that they were indeed people from Shudao Mountain.
There was no grudge in the past, and no resentment today, so I don't know what the meaning of blocking the door is.
Of course, they also discovered Shi Chun and his gang who were surrounded by Shu Daoshan's gang. After a little identification, they recognized them. The big guy Wu Jinliang carrying a gourd was too obvious.
The Qianyan Sect was completely confused by this situation.
Shi Chun spoke first, "Brother Gong, no matter how well you conceal your identity, it's useless. Now that you've found us, there's no point in hiding. Let your people come out. If this matter is not resolved today, I'm afraid none of us will be able to leave the Divine Fire Region alive. The exit is controlled by the elders of Shudao Mountain.
In the final analysis, we are in the same group. Now that we have fallen into their hands, it is up to you to decide whether we should go with them or you should work with us to solve the problem."
Upon hearing this, Gong Shixi's face was moved, and his heart was in turmoil. The sentence "It's useless to conceal your identity on the surface" has already hit the point. He realized without hesitation that the identities of his group had been exposed.
Therefore, the sentence 'after all, we are in the same group' also made him realize that the above concerns were not unreasonable. Shi Chun was indeed also from the magic path, but he didn't know which lineage he was from.
With this awareness, it is not difficult to understand the meaning of Shi Chun's words. Is it to let us fall into their hands and say something we shouldn't say, or to help us get out of trouble, it's up to you.
