Chapter 621
"Rumble..."
Sword energy raged in the canyon, and the attacks of Lin Tianfeng and Lin Tianhu collided with each other.
For a moment, the canyon burst into flames, and the powerful impact uprooted the surrounding towering trees.
As the smoke dissipated, the fire also extinguished, and the earth was temporarily given some time to calm down.
The days of fighting like this continued, almost every few days.
Such large movements occur frequently, but they have never attracted the attention of others, and no one has come here.
The reason for this is also because this is the dark night forest, one of the two most dangerous places in Jinfeng Kingdom.
In such a huge and dangerous place, the probability of monks appearing in the outer areas is not small.
But in this inner area, there are many third-order monsters, and even the Golden Core Stage monks don't dare to wander in at will.
The location of the retreat place for Lin Tianfeng and the others is remote and very hidden. It happens to be in a corner of the dark night forest and is neither an internal area nor a peripheral area.
In order to find a suitable retreat place, Lin Tianhu spent a long time and traveled to many locations before finally finding such a place.
Here, right between the inner and outer areas, it is easily overlooked.
Under such circumstances, they could stay here for several years. During this period, only a few second-level monsters entered the place by mistake, and they were quickly killed by Lin Tianhu.
As for some monks who came here, they were all in the foundation-building stage. Under Lin Tianhu's dealings, it was basically impossible to find their traces.
However, these peaceful days were completely broken with the appearance of several monks.
On this day, in the dark forest at night, two monks, a man and a woman, passed by a hilltop.
Looking around, the two people looked panicked. The middle-aged man among them was pale at the moment, and there were a lot of blood stains on the Taoist robes on his body.
It was obvious that the man had suffered serious injuries.
As for the other female cultivator, although her condition at this time seemed to be better than that of the man, she was also seriously injured.
At this time, the two of them fled in panic, heading in the direction of the canyon where Lin Tianfeng and others were.
As the two of them ran away, the man's mana consumption became less and less, and his injuries became more and more serious.
Soon, the man's face turned extremely pale, looking as white as snow.
Seeing this situation, when the woman helped the man escape, she asked with concern: "Brother, how are your injuries?"
Hearing this, the man pretended that nothing was wrong, and then replied: "Zhuo Shi, I can still hold on."
"It's just that the guys who are chasing us will catch up to us soon. It will probably be even more difficult for us to escape by then."
After the man said this, his face couldn't help but turn a little paler. He obviously understood how unfavorable the current situation was to the two brothers and sisters.
When the woman heard her brother's words, she also turned pale, and the expression on her face gradually became serious.
At this moment, the man let out a long sigh, a look of determination flashed across his face.
"Zhuo Shi, Uncle Jiu and the others have tried their best to hold down these old guys in order to let us brothers and sisters escape. They even risked their lives."
"Now, both of us have been injured, and our strength has been greatly reduced."
"But even if we are at our peak, we cannot be their opponents."
"In this case, once we are caught up by them, we are probably going to die here."
Speaking of this, the man's face was extremely angry, and his eyes showed a look of deathly gray.
Then, the man paused and said resolutely: "Zhuo Shi, it doesn't matter if our brother and sister have died. The key is that the treasure must not fall into their hands."
"You must know that our family has been secretly plotting for this treasure for a hundred years."
"It's this thing, but the only chance for Second Grandpa and his old man to reach the Nascent Soul stage is fundamentally related to the fate of tens of thousands of members of our family."
"As long as the second grandfather successfully enters the Nascent Soul stage, all the crises before us will be solved."
"But if we lose this opportunity, our Liang family will fall into a situation of no return."
"Therefore, even if we die, we must bring this treasure back to the family, otherwise we will become the sinners of the family."
The man said firmly, already prepared to die.
As for the woman who heard these words, she nodded, and she also understood how difficult the current situation was.
But she knew better in her heart what this thing they had fought so hard to obtain meant to the entire Liang family.
Seeing the woman's serious expression, the man continued to speak.
"Zhuo Shi, if we catch up with them in a moment, you can just run away with the treasure. Brother Wei, try your best to stop them for a while and try to buy some time for you."
"As long as you rush into the depths of the dark night forest, even if their group is powerful, they will not dare to run rampant in the inner area."
"And you are running for your life alone, with a relatively small target. If you rely on some dangerous places or the cover and obstruction of some third-level monsters, you may be able to get rid of their group."
"As long as you can get rid of them, the probability of survival is not small, and there is hope of returning to the family safely."
"After analyzing it this way, you must do what brother Zai Wei said. Do you understand, Zhuo Shi?"
After the man said this, he looked at the woman seriously, fully prepared to fight.
When the woman heard these words, her face turned pale.
I saw Ta shook his head and said: "Brother, I should be the one who wants to stay, and you should run away with the treasure."
As soon as he finished speaking, the man on the side yelled angrily: "What time is it, Shi'er, what nonsense are you talking about?"
"It hasn't been long since you broke through the Golden Core stage, and your own strength is not strong. If you stay behind, I'm afraid you won't be able to buy any time."
"Brother Wei has been breaking through the Golden Core stage for decades, and brother Wei himself has been seriously injured. Even if he escapes by chance, he may not be able to escape their pursuit in the future."
"On the other hand, Shi'er, although you are injured, the impact of your strength is not great. Your chances of running away from them are higher."
"From this point of view, it is most appropriate to leave a divorced wife for my brother."
"This... how does this work?"
After hearing this, the woman was speechless for a moment. Although she wanted to refute the man, she had no entry point and could only speak intermittently.
At this moment, the man saw the woman's hesitation and immediately began to urge her.
"Stop hesitating and act on brother's plan later!"
The man said this in a firm tone, and his face looked like he couldn't refuse.
At this moment, when Liang Zhuoshi heard her brother Liang Zhuoying's words, her eyes suddenly turned blood red, and she finally nodded while crying.
At this time, seeing her sister Liang Zhuoshi agreeing to her plan, Liang Zhuoying finally breathed a sigh of relief, and a reluctant smile flashed on her pale face.
But in his heart, he was ready to die generously.
But he also knew very well that for the future of the Liang family and for his sister to survive, he could only sacrifice himself for a chance.
If he didn't do this, the Liang family would probably be destroyed by his enemies, and his sister would die in front of his eyes.
Of these two possible things, neither one of them was what he wanted to see.
As for his death, it will at least have a certain value, and it may even be an opportunity for the entire Liang family to stand up.
Understanding this, Liang Zhuoying did not hesitate at all. Whether in his heart or within himself, he was ready to explode the golden elixir at any time to delay the enemy's time.
However, before the enemy could catch up with them, the speed of the two brothers and sisters did not slow down at all. They were thrown away by them as soon as they came out of the mountain behind them, and finally disappeared from their less than half a quarter of an hour, the brother and sister Liang Zhuoying fled all the way, and finally came to a canyon with dense vegetation.
The two looked at the scene in front of them, and just when they wanted to take a breath, they heard a burst of sarcastic laughter from behind.
"Haha...Look where are you two brothers and sisters going to escape?"
"Haha... Let's see where you run away this time!"
As soon as he finished speaking, four figures appeared behind Liang Zhuoying.
This group of people wore Taoist robes of different colors, and the embroidery patterns on their chests were different, obviously from different forces.
In fact it is.
Moreover, these four people are all in the Golden Core stage, and one of them is in the middle stage of the Golden Core.
It's just that this person's face is pale and his breath is a little sluggish. He is obviously seriously injured.
At this moment, when Liang Zhuoying and his sister saw the visitor, their faces suddenly became paler, and they secretly complained in their hearts.
"You old guys, you came so fast!"
Liang Zhuoying said coldly, the murderous look on his face was obvious.
In his heart, they thought it would take at least half an hour, or even longer, to catch up.
However, less than half an hour had passed and the enemy was already pursuing them.
Now that their brother and sister are once again trapped in a tight siege, what awaits them next is probably to be surrounded and killed.
Understanding this, the brother and sister Liang Zhuoying were ready to give it a go.
At this moment, the four people opposite looked at each other.
Then, the monk who was in the middle stage of Golden Core spoke first.
"Three fellow Taoists, now that we have caught up with them, let's kill them both as soon as possible, lest things change later!"
Hearing this, Xie Xiong among the three nodded, and then spoke in agreement.
"Fellow Daoist Luo is right!"
"We'd better deal with them as soon as possible, or rush to the Liang family's mountain gate to help as soon as possible. I think we can break through the Liang family's mountain defense formation faster."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Ying on the other side took over.
"Well... let's do it!"
As soon as these words came out, Xie Xiong and his party nodded to each other and then prepared to take action.
Seeing this situation, the expressions of Liang Zhuoying's brother and sister changed and they took a few steps back in a hurry.
After stabilizing her body, Liang Zhuoying looked at her sister Liang Zhuoshi, and the color in her eyes already explained her plan.
As for Liang Zhuoshi, although she didn't want to do this at all, she could only nod helplessly, which was regarded as a response to Liang Zhuoying.
Seeing this scene, Liang Zhuoying was about to take action and made a gesture of giving it a go.
At this time, waves of roaring sounds came from the canyon behind the two brothers and sisters Liang Zhuoying.
At the same time, bursts of faint light flashed across the slightly gloomy sky.
Although the sound sounded intermittent and the firelight was very weak, it seemed that it was not that clear due to the distance.
However, several people present were at the Golden Core stage, and relying on their own spiritual consciousness, they felt the movement immediately.
At this time, Liang Zhuoying felt such a change, and her expression suddenly changed.
At this moment, although Liang Zhuoying's face was still ugly, it was obviously better than before.
Immediately afterwards, Liang Zhuoying quickly sent a message to Liang Zhuoshi in secret.
"Zhuo Shi, there seems to be monks of the same level in the canyon behind us."
"In this situation now, we are at the end of our rope."
"In this case, we might as well find a way to get into it and see if we can ask that fellow Taoist for help, or drag them into the water directly."
After hearing Liang Zhuoying'en's message, Liang Zhuoshi immediately understood his brother's plan, and even more understood his good intentions in doing so.
And Liang Zhuoshi is not a dull person, he is even very smart.
In her heart, whether it was for herself or to keep her brother Liang Zhuoying alive, she was willing to try any vicious method.
Although such a plan to divert disaster to the east was not so glorious, she didn't care about that much at this time.
So, Liang Zhuoshi immediately took Liang Zhuoying's arm and rushed towards the inside of the canyon.
Liang Zhuoying was not to be outdone. As he retreated, he immediately patted his storage bag. Then he saw a fiery red bead come out of his hand and hit the location where Xie Xiong and others were.
At this time, Xie Xiong and the other four saw the movements of Liang Zhuoying and his sister, and then combined with the commotion coming from inside the canyon, they also understood their specific intentions.
Under such circumstances, Xie Xiong immediately jumped after him.
Behind him, Li Ying and the other three were shocked and angry, and they also reacted in a short time.
Immediately afterwards, Li Ying and others also took a step forward, trying to prevent Liang Zhuoying and others from escaping.
Just when the four of them took a step forward, the fiery red bead that Liang Zhuoying smashed exploded in front of the four of them.
"boom……"
There was a loud noise, accompanied by flames rising into the sky, and soon a sea of fire was formed.
At that moment, a powerful impact spread in all directions.
The four people who had just leaned out to pursue Liang Zhuoying were blocked for an instant by the sea of fire caused by the bead explosion.
Although the power of this sea of fire is not very strong, the area of the sea of fire is not small, and the impact of its central area is also lethal to a certain extent.
Faced with such methods, even the Golden Core Stage cultivators had to avoid their sharp edges for their own safety.
And in the eyes of the four of them, the actions of the two brothers and sisters Liang Zhuoying were just hanging on and delaying time.
Even if the two of them entered the canyon and were helped by the unknowing monk, they could not change the final result.
As a result, the four of them stopped their pursuit and planned to wait until the sea of fire dissipated before pursuing the escaped Liang Zhuoying brother and sister.
