Chapter 565

~8 min read 1,514 words

Xu Yang had heard of the Zhang brothers, disciples under Elder Gongshu, both at the Marrow Cleansing Major Success cultivation, and were extremely strong experts.

If these two had also had an accident, he must be careful. Maybe some old monster at the Heavenly Origin Realm would pop up.

"Senior Brother Gao, what is our task?" Hong Lei said.

There were eight people in total, and he had the lowest cultivation.

Although Xu Yang and he were both at the Marrow Cleansing Minor Success Realm, Xu Yang had a half-spiritual weapon Red Blood in his hand and could kill the Marrow Cleansing Major Success Guan Du. Only he had neither a half-spiritual weapon nor the Marrow Cleansing Major Success cultivation.

"First find out the reason for their disappearance, and see if they were harmed or if something else happened." Gao Lin said.

With so many experts, if Heavenly Origin didn't appear, basically there wouldn't be any problems.

If there really was a Heavenly Origin powerhouse, he could only admit he was unlucky.

"I'm afraid it's a trap!" Xu Yang thought to himself.

Last year, the Profound Heaven Sect killed so many experts of the Blood Lotus Sect. What he was most worried about was that this matter was related to the Blood Lotus Sect.

If it was the Blood Lotus Sect's handiwork, it was very likely that a big net had already been spread, just waiting for them to rush in.

It's just that for this kind of thing, he had no right to speak, and it was impossible for a Heavenly Origin Elder to personally investigate every time something happened.

If that were the case, the Heavenly Origin Elders of the Profound Heaven Sect wouldn't have to cultivate, and they would have to run around every day.

"Chirp!"

Suddenly, an eagle cry resounded in the sky. Xu Yang subconsciously looked up and saw a giant eagle flapping its wings between the clouds.

Saying it was a giant eagle was a bit inaccurate, because compared to the Green-Scaled Eagle he killed, this eagle was much smaller, but compared to an ordinary eagle, it was much larger.

Lu Chuping's eyes condensed and said: "It's that strange beast of Cui Mingchong, how did it appear here?"

He recognized the origin of this giant eagle; it was a strange beast raised by Cui Mingchong of Beast King Peak.

Gao Lin smiled and nodded: "I was worried that this matter was some kind of conspiracy trap, so I let someone notify Cui Mingchong. If there is any abnormality, it will quickly return to the Profound Heaven Sect to help us report and ask for help."

As soon as these words came out, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. With this kind of strange beast, there was another layer of safety guarantee.

The trees on the side of the road gradually became tall, and everyone entered the Yunling Mountain Range all the way, rushing to where Camel Peak was.

Running for two hours in a row, there was no discovery on the road, and there were no traces of fighting anywhere.

"Could it be that something happened to the mine?" Gao Lin frowned.

In two hours, with their footwork, they had run hundreds of miles, and unexpectedly there was still no discovery.

"Don't worry, Camel Peak is at least a thousand miles away from the Profound Heaven Sect. Maybe the place where the accident happened is still ahead." Lu Chuping said.

A journey of hundreds of miles could be said to be the sphere of influence of the Profound Heaven Sect. Ordinary people would not dare to move the Profound Heaven Sect's transport convoy in this range.

Continuing to run forward, until evening, there was still no discovery.

"Can't continue on the road, find a place to rest." Lu Chuping said.

The night in the Yunling Mountain Range was not safe. Although they were in a hurry to find out the truth, they couldn't be reckless. They had been on the road for a day, so they had to find a place to rest and restore their physical strength.

Everyone agreed. After such a long time, if something really happened, people were probably already dead. Their rushing on the road at night wouldn't help.

"There is a place ahead that is very suitable for rest, let's go there and stay for a night." Gao Lin said.

He had clearly been to Camel Peak and was very familiar with the places along the way.

Everyone's footsteps slowed down, and soon they walked to the place Gao Lin mentioned, a cave at the foot of the mountain.

This place should be where the Profound Heaven Sect disciples who often walked this road stayed overnight, so there were ashes and bones everywhere.

"Senior Brother Gao, change to another place, I don't think it's safe here." Xu Yang frowned and said.

Under normal circumstances, this place was fine.

Now the situation, if someone had the heart to be unfavorable to them, it was not difficult to calculate that they would stay overnight here.

"What's unsafe about it? Senior Brother has his own considerations in doing things. You go and hit a wild beast for everyone to have dinner, and we will go and pick up some firewood." Tian Kuan said.

With so many Marrow Cleansing Major Success experts, it's fine if the enemy doesn't come. If they come, it's just right to send them merit.

Xu Yang was too lazy to pay attention to him, but looked at Gao Lin.

"No harm, no matter how you change, it's all in this vicinity. If there is really an enemy, it's unavoidable. This cave is easy to defend and hard to attack, and it's the best place to rest nearby." Gao Lin shook his head.

It's not that he didn't think of these things, but staying in the wild instead of the cave was even more dangerous.

If the enemy touches the wind and poisons you, you don't know how you died. No matter how dangerous it is, you have to choose a place to avoid the wind. This is the most important rule for survival in the wild.

Xu Yang nodded helplessly, immediately understanding that his ideas were different from Gao Lin and the others.

His idea was to avoid fighting if possible, and Gao Lin and the others' idea was to fight, choose a place favorable to them, and then fight.

"Junior Brother Hong, Junior Brother Xu, you and Junior Brother Tian Kuan go to the vicinity to see if you can hit a wild beast to satisfy your hunger. The situation is unclear, remember not to act alone." Gao Lin said again.

This time it was Gao Lin's order, so Xu Yang had to obey, and immediately entered the mountain forest with Hong Lei and Tian Kuan.

"You go over there, we go over here!" Tian Kuan pointed in a direction at will, meaning to separate to find wild beasts.

"Good!"

Xu Yang nodded, plunged into the mountain forest, and scattered his mind, like a big net spreading out. After a while, he found a few wild deer in the forest.

His movement technique unfolded, he rushed over, pointed out from the air, and the neck of the largest stag was immediately shot through. The remaining wild deer ran away in all directions.

Xu Yang floated down like a breeze, holding the stag that had died of breath in his hand.

"Ah……"

Just at this moment, a shrill scream tore through the mountain forest. Although it was very far away, he still heard that this was Hong Lei's voice, and the voice contained fear and pain.

"Something happened!"

Xu Yang's expression changed slightly, and the mind he had put away was scattered again, covering the surroundings.

"Eh……"

He was planning to touch over to see what Hong Lei and Tian Kuan had encountered, but suddenly found that in the place covered by his mind, a hundred feet away from him, there was a place where trees were broken, knife marks were everywhere, and it was clear that experts had fought here. A piece of soil was dyed red with blood, and it had dried up, appearing black.

Xu Yang rushed over. The traces here were very new, and it should be a matter of these few days.

The battlefield full of cracks, a few pieces of clothing were very conspicuous.

He bent down to pick it up and saw that it was a piece of clothing of an Inner Sect disciple of the Profound Heaven Sect, all stained with blood.

"Is it the Zhang brothers, Zhang Heng and Zhang Quan?"

Xu Yang's gaze swept over and found that besides human footprints, there were some huge claw marks on this battlefield, which were very terrifying. If you didn't look carefully, you would think it was chopped out by knives and swords.

"Boom boom……"

Violent collision sounds came from the distance, accompanied by huge roars and Tian Kuan's angry roars. Xu Yang held Red Blood in his hand and touched over in that direction.
