Chapter 1460 Betrayal
Lin Nan saw the miserable situation of Li Axie and Xue Ren, and his legs were so scared that he still dared to ask for the demon core?
“My fellow Taoist has great supernatural powers, and this little girl is willing to be inferior. As for these demon cores, they were all hunted by my fellow Taoist through hard work. How dare I have such delusions?”
Lin Nan’s voice sounded. Trembling, he took three steps back, bowed to Liang Yan again, and then ran deeper into the woods without looking back.
Looking at the woman's retreating figure, Liang Yan shook his head and did not choose to pursue her.
Random killing is prohibited in Langhuan Continent. At the foot of Longding Mountain, Lan Li and Situ Wen were examples. Even if they were the heads of a clan, they could not violate the iron law of Shennong Mountain.
Liang Yan had just hit the target. Although he knocked two people away, he did not make a fatal move.
"This level of strength should be about the same."
Liang Yan thought to himself, looking towards the shadows in the woods intentionally or unintentionally.
There, a few leaves fell, and it seemed that someone had been there before, but now it was empty.
"Messenger Shennong. Interesting!"
A subtle smile appeared on the corner of Liang Yan's mouth.
In fact, when the three people just came to fight for the demon core, he could completely ignore them. He only needed to use the Taixu gourd to collect the demon beast's body, then pat his butt and leave.
With the magical powers of Li Axie, Lin Nan and others, there is no way they can catch up with Liang Yan.
The reason why he chose to take action was because he sensed someone hiding in the dark.
And this person is Shennong’s envoy, Tang Zhen!
Before the competition, Tang Zhen had shown a strong interest in him and wanted Liang Yan to join Shennong Mountain, and stated that he would observe his performance during the hunt.
Liang Yan did not expect that this person would keep his word and find his place just after entering Longding Mountain.
Knowing that Tang Zhen was hiding in the dark, Liang Yan naturally had to show some tricks to the other party, so that the other party could recognize him.
Liang Yan handled the battle just right.
Using the divine power of the Vajra to deal with several monks in the early stages of the Golden Core was simply overwhelming, but no sword energy was used during the entire process, so that Tang Zhen would not be suspicious.
"He should be quite satisfied with me, right?"
Liang Yan looked at the place where Tang Zhen had been before, with a thoughtful look on his face.
If this competition goes well and enough five-color soil is obtained, Tang Zhen will take him into Shennong Mountain after he recovers his cultivation.
This way, you can save a lot of trouble
Thinking of this, Liang Yan turned around and looked at the corpse of the monster in the open space. He took out a black cloth bag from his sleeve, opened the mouth of the bag, and cast a spell at the same time.
As the spell was played, demon cores of different sizes and colors flew out from the corpses of these demon beasts. There were as many as one hundred and thirteen, and finally they all fell into the beam. In Yan's black cloth bag.
Liang Yan tied the mouth of the bag and weighed it in his hands, with a look of satisfaction on his face.
“With these monster cores, I can equal the harvest of a tribe by myself. If I go to the top of the mountain to hunt a few Jindan realm monsters, I will be able to securely enter the top three in this competition. ”
Although the current situation is very good, Liang Yan does not take it lightly, because there is still an uncertain factor hidden in the dark, and that is the "Ye Ming Sect".
Thinking of "Ye Ming Sect", Liang Yan also thought of Gu Xingyun.
This person has been on the Ye Ming Cult’s assassination list. Is he still alive?
Thinking of this, Liang Yan pinched his fingers with his right hand and calculated silently for a moment, then quickly raised his eyebrows.
"Huh? It's not far from here. I'll go over and have a look. Maybe I can save his life."
To say that Liang Yan has fallen into a state of decline, it is impossible to sense Gu Xingyun's However, he had done some tricks on "Mu Ying" beforehand and found that "Mu Ying" was not far away.
According to Ye Ming Sect's method of assassinating Gu Xingyun, "Muying" is definitely a very useful chess piece.
In other words, wherever "Muying" appears, it is likely that Gu Xingyun is also there.
Liang Yan did not hesitate. He carefully put away the demon core, then activated the Tianji Pearl to cover his aura and walked towards the direction of "Mu Ying".
Somewhere in the woods of Longding Mountain, there is an empty dirt land.
A young man and woman are standing back to back.
The man's face was fair and handsome, but unfortunately his left eye was injured and left a scar, which made him look a little imperfect.
Behind him is a woman in palace attire, in her twenties and eighties, with good looks.
At this moment, the two of them were surrounded by a group of red monsters.
Each of these strange insects is about the size of a fist, shaped like a centipede, and has a bright red carapace on its body. Some magical spells fell on them and were immediately bounced away by the carapace, causing only superficial injuries.
"Brother Xingyun, this is not the way to go. There are too many of them and I can't kill them all!" The woman in palace clothes sounded anxious and asked the man behind her for help.
"I didn't expect that I would encounter the 'Floating Gold Demon Ant' here!" The man looked solemn, looked at a cave in the distance, and said urgently: "There should be an insect mother born, so these 'flowing gold demon ants' Only the Golden Demon Ants become so crazy, If my guess is correct, the insect mother is directing the battle in that cave. "The insect mother of the Gold-flowing Demon Ant? Why is she here?" A look of surprise appeared on the woman's face.
"It should be that we happened to break into its territory shortly after the breakthrough and were treated as blood food by it." The man said helplessly.
"Then what should we do?"
The face of the woman in palace clothes turned pale, she took the initiative to lean against the man, and said almost sobbing: "Brother Xingyun, Mu Ying I don’t want these disgusting things to crawl on me, so you must find a way to save me.”
"Don't worry, I won't let you get hurt."
A calm voice came from the man's mouth. This man was Gu Xingyun, one of the "Three Red Clouds" of the Shiling Tribe!
And the woman in palace attire who was protected behind him was naturally the granddaughter of the leader of the Shiling Clan, "Muying".
At this time, Gu Xingyun has been surrounded by gold-flowing demon ants. The individual strength of these demon ants is not strong, but they can connect their auras together. In front of such a huge ant colony, even if Gu Xingyun, who was in the Jindan realm, was also a little constrained.
In fact, with his strength, even if he cannot defeat the golden demon ants, he can still escape from the ant colony.
But now there is one more person around, Mu Ying.
This woman's cultivation level is too low. Gu Xingyun alone is still confident of escaping from the ant colony. If Mu Ying is brought along, it will be difficult to say.
Despite knowing this, Gu Xingyun still had no intention of giving up on Mu Ying.
He unfolded his body-protecting spiritual light and enveloped Mu Ying.
"Yingying, don't worry, as long as I, Gu Xingyun, are here, these magic ants can't get close to you!" "Brother Xingyun, you are so kind!"
Mu Ying leaned against Gu Xingyun again, and suddenly said softly: "Brother Xingyun, we can't escape from this situation. Only by killing the insect mother can we leave safely. "
"I also want to kill the insect mother, but..." Gu Xingyun looked at Mu Ying beside him, with a look of hesitation on his face.
"Brother Xingyun, I know what you are thinking. You are afraid that when you go in to duel with the insect mother, I won't be able to resist these golden demon ants alone, right?" Mu Ying blinked. Blinking.
"Yes." Gu Xingyun nodded slowly: "I don't want to leave you here alone."
"Silly brother, I know you are the best to Ying'er." Mu Ying smiled sweetly and said in a soft voice: "But have you forgotten something? In fact, you can kill the insect mother without entering the cave."
“No need to enter the cave?”
Gu Xingyun was fending off the golden demon ants around him. Hearing Mu Ying’s words, he was slightly startled at first, and then he immediately reacted.
“You mean, use the magic weapon given to me by the high priest?”
“Yes, have you forgotten this trump card?” Mu Ying said with a smile.
"But. But I can only use this magic weapon once a day. The high priest Qian Dingzhuwan has told me to use it at the critical moment when competing for rankings. If I use it now," Gu Xingyun's eyes showed hesitation.
"Humph, if you don't have to do it now, why don't you just watch these ants eat me?" Mu Ying's tone suddenly became a little cold.
"Ying'er, you know that's not what I meant." Gu Xingyun saw her angry and hurriedly explained.
"Silly brother, you are so stupid!"
Mu Ying smiled sweetly, and her tone gradually became softer: "The insect mother in the cave has probably broken through to the golden elixir realm. , if you kill it with the 'Fudi Golden Bowl', won't you get a golden elixir realm demon core? This will not only save Ying'er, but also contribute to the ranking of the Stone Spirit Clan, isn't it killing two birds with one stone?" br>
"This"
Gu Xingyun's face was a little shaken. Although Yi Yin told him many times that he would never use that magic weapon until the critical moment, but now his beloved begged softly, Gu Xing Yun Ye finally made up his mind.
"Okay, let's use the 'Folding Golden Bowl' to kill that insect mother!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Xingyun raised his hand and pinched a magic formula, and followed it in his sleeve There was a flash of golden light, and an earthen golden bowl flew into the air.
The "Floating Golden Bowl" grew in the wind. In an instant, it was ten feet wide and as big as a roof. Gold and black intertwined. It kept spinning in the air, bringing up strong winds.
"Go!"
Gu Xingyun recited a spell, stretched out his hand, and the "Fudi Golden Bowl" flew through the air, and instantly got into the cave in the distance.
There was a steady stream of gold-flowing demon ants pouring out of the cave, but when they were hit by the "Floating Golden Bowl", they immediately fell apart and couldn't resist it at all.
Gu Xingyun continued to control the "Fudi Golden Bowl", rushing left and right in the cave, and soon found the mother of the Golden Demon Ant.
This mother insect has reached the early stage of the golden elixir, but her aura is very unstable. It is obvious that she just broke through not long ago, otherwise it would not be possible to appear halfway up the mountain.
"Hmph, you're the beast here to stir up trouble and trouble!"
Gu Xingyun snorted coldly, and without saying much, he controlled the "Folding Golden Bowl" to hit the opponent.
The insect mother had already given birth to spiritual intelligence. Seeing the ferocious power of the "Folding Golden Bowl", she knew it was a magic weapon that was not easy to mess with, so she did not dare to take it directly. She drilled into the cave and disappeared without a trace. No trace.
“Still want to run?”
A fierce light flashed in Gu Xingyun’s eyes, and he pinched the magic with both hands.
He knew that the Golden Demon Ant was good at escaping into the ground and building burrows, and the Mother Insect was an expert at it. Once it escaped underground, it would be even more difficult to find it out.
At this critical moment, Gu Xingyun used the formula taught by Yi Yin and used half of his earth spiritual power to strengthen the "Fudi Golden Bowl".
As his seal took shape, huge earth spiritual power poured into the "Fudi Golden Bowl", causing the magic weapon's glow to skyrocket.
Brush!
A yellow light shot out from under the golden bowl and penetrated into the ground. In just a few breaths, it pulled out the insect mother that had just escaped.
"Death!"
Gu Xingyun didn't hesitate at all. With a pinch of the magic formula with his right hand, the "Fudi Golden Bowl" slowly rotated in mid-air. The powerful force was like an invisible millstone, turning this insect away. The mother's body was ground into powder.
As soon as the insect mother died, the surrounding Golden Demon Ants immediately lost their command and no longer attacked the two people. Instead, they faded away like a tide and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
Seeing that the crisis was over, Gu Xingyun also breathed a sigh of relief.
He raised his hand and cast a spell, taking out the demon core from the broken corpse of the insect mother, with a smile on his face.
"Yingying, with this demon core, it should make our tribe's ranking higher, right?"
"Of course, my brother Xingyun is the best." Mu Ying said at this moment She doesn’t have the airs of a dignified lady either. , buried his head in Gu Xingyun's chest, and said in a tired voice: "Brother Xingyun, did you spend a lot of spiritual energy just to kill the insect mother?"
"Yes."
Gu Xingyun nodded and said : "The insect mother wants to escape into the ground, so I can only use the seal taught by the high priest to forcibly activate the magical power of the 'Fudi Golden Bowl' to catch the insect mother out of the ground. However, in this way, the spiritual power in my body will At least half was lost. "
"It's really dangerous to lose half of your spiritual power!" Mu Ying looked worried and asked after thinking about it: "What about the 'Fudi Golden Bowl'? Use it again? ”
Gu Xingyun sighed softly and said: "I can't use it anymore because the 'Fudi Golden Bowl' is not my magic weapon. After reluctantly refining it, I can only use it once a day. If I use it forcibly a second time, my soul may be destroyed." The magic weapon backfired, and she finally went crazy and died.
Mu Ying buried her head in Gu Xingyun's chest, her long hair like a waterfall covering her face. Know what she is thinking.
The two hugged each other for a moment, and Mu Ying's voice suddenly sounded: "Since brother Xingyun has reached this stage, let Ying'er give you a ride."
"Well ?”
Gu Xingyun was stunned for a moment. Before he could react, he felt a tearing pain in his chest.
Looking down, he saw a bright dagger stuck in his heart, and the other end of the dagger was the lover he had longed for.
“You!”
Gu Xingyun seemed to have seen the most unbelievable thing. His eyes widened, his steps staggered, and he took a few steps back.
He didn’t understand what was happening. The woman he loved most, the woman he was willing to protect with his life, actually inserted a dagger into his chest.
