"Whoosh whoosh!"

In a dense forest in the Death Mountain Forest, a black shadow shuttled freely through it. His movements were vigorous and seemingly very relaxed. However, the owner of the black shadow was gradually becoming sad.

This black shadow is Ling Yi. For more than ten days, he has been searching for the whereabouts of Zi Tian in the Death Mountain Forest. However, what makes him very disappointed is that in addition to the magical beasts that may appear at any time, there are also those bloody monsters here.

A cold-blooded mercenary with a strong smell, there is no outsider at all. On the contrary, he, a person who comes and goes freely in the forest of death, seems very conspicuous and unnecessary, and always attracts strange and wary looks from some mercenaries.

However, during this period of time, Ling Yi did not gain nothing. He was always able to gain experience in fighting with some ferocious monsters. His own strength was originally at a bottleneck. After more than ten days, he actually broke through to the Soul King level.

In the third stage, he can fight against some eighth-level monsters.

Moreover, Ling Yi also discovered that he was now deep in the Death Mountain Forest, but the number of mercenaries was still large, and there were even signs of moving deeper into the mountain forest.

The deeper the mountain forest means, the more ferocious and bloodthirsty monsters are hidden. In the past, these mercenaries were deeply afraid of them, but now, they are doing the opposite. Unless there is something deeper that can attract these mercenaries,

no other reason

Although he vaguely guessed the purpose of these mercenaries, Ling Yi didn't want to join in the fun. His first priority now was to find Elder Zitian, and wasting time on other things would not be worth the loss.

After sniffing the putrid smell that filled the air, Ling Yi picked up his spirits, lightly jumped onto the top of an ancient tree with his toes, and looked into the distance.

In the distance, there is a huge depression. The bare land forms a circle and is surrounded by lush green trees. It is extremely strange.

"Is this the central location? The terrain is weird, and there seems to be some extremely obscure and powerful auras hidden there. What could be there that attracts these mercenaries so much?" Ling Yi folded his arms, squinting his eyes slightly, and was about to jump down.

On the treetops, more than a dozen figures were running towards Ling Yi at high speed.

His movements stagnated, Ling Yi concentrated and held his breath, waiting for the figure to appear.

"Whoosh whoosh!"

Figures of people shuttled through the forest, and the weeds on the ground rubbed against the hems of their clothes, making very regular noises. It was obvious that these people were all well-trained mercenaries.

The leader was an old man with purple hair, small eyes, and extremely thick lips. His black clothes were stained with a few scarlet bloodstains. He held a big sword in his hand. Runes were carved on the big sword and flickered faintly.

The red flame, obviously, this big sword had been blessed with some kind of talisman array by the sigil master to have such effect.

Following the old man were fifteen young mercenaries, fourteen male mercenaries, and only one female mercenary, but their strength surprised Ling Yi. The lowest ones were all soul masters, and one of them looked like

The man who seemed to have some status was even more powerful at the sixth level of Soul King, and the old man who took the lead had unfathomable strength.

However, according to Ling Yi's estimation, this old man's strength is at most the same as Cheng Qian's. At least, this old man is not as powerful as Cheng Qian.

Slightly relieved, Ling Yi knew that these mercenaries were just passing through this place and should not be specially targeting him.

With the cover of the branches and leaves, Ling Yi hid behind the branches and leaves, and observed the mercenaries in the field through the small gaps in the branches and leaves.

"Have a rest here!" The old man raised his hand and ordered.

Everyone stopped as they were told and found a place to sit down, recovering their lost energy.

"Commander Mu Yingang, are we going to let their Heavenly Snake mercenary group go like this?" The man with some status stepped forward and said with a reluctant look on his face.

"Hey!" Mu Yingang let out a long sigh and said with a wry smile: "Yanwu, it's not that I don't want to, it's just that Tian Snake is too strong, and I am no match for him. This time I go to the center to seize the treasure.

Knowing whether it is life or death, we need to conserve our strength. If we get that treasure by then, we can destroy the Sky Snake mercenary group and kill the Sky Snake, it will be no problem!"

"Was the snake really that powerful that day?" Iwatake frowned in disbelief.

"Sky Snake can single-handedly establish the Sky Snake mercenary group, and in the past few years it has developed into a mercenary group that can compete with us. How can we underestimate its ability? The more caution, the more safety.

!" Mu Yingang sighed

"Brother Yanwu, my father must have a reason for saying this. You must never go against his will!" A purple figure moved forward and chuckled. Although his tone was kind, it contained a warning.

In response to this, Yanwu grinned helplessly and gave a wry smile. He wanted to argue with Mu Yingang again, but when facing this woman, he honestly closed his mouth with a feeling of admiration, and inadvertently

coming out of eyes

"Yan'er, go and tell the other brothers to look around carefully. I'm worried that the Sky Snake mercenary group is still determined. Some people may be willing to take big risks and want to seize this big sword from me." Mu Yingang's expression

Seriously, holding a big sword in his hand, he said in a deep voice

Glancing at the big sword in Mu Yingang's hand, Mu Yan'er immediately retracted her gaze, smiled slightly, and then gave the order.

After that, the group of mercenaries rested here, but most of them were looking at all directions. Mu Yingang sat with his eyes closed, his legs crossed.

The big sword was lying flat, but what they didn't expect was that a pair of eyes on the ancient tree were staring at them closely.

"This big sword is a bit strange. Could it be related to the Sky Serpent Mercenary Group?" Ling Yi's mind was spinning, and his eyes remained on the big sword.

After looking for a long time without seeing any story, Ling Yi gave up and continued to ponder. He quietly stretched out his head and saw that the person under the tree was unconscious, so he tiptoed and the treetops trembled slightly. His body,

Just like a locust, it lightly jumped onto another ancient tree.

After jumping to another ancient tree, Ling Yi was not in a hurry to jump out again. Instead, he immediately moved his body motionless and gradually moved his gaze to the bottom of the tree. When he saw that the mercenaries did not feel anything unusual, he felt relieved and jumped forward.

, jumped to another tree again, and was about to leave here like a monkey, but a burst of energy came out of thin air.

"Not good!" Ling Yi immediately realized something was wrong. He twisted in the air and narrowly avoided the energy. He jumped down to the ground and immediately drew out the ice-cold Luanyun Sword. He calmed down and was on guard.

In front of him, the purple-haired old man held the big sword in his hand and looked at Ling Yi coldly. In his eyes, a cold murderous intention floated.

"Who are you?" Mu Yan'er, who was wearing a purple gauze skirt, walked a few steps, feeling quite cold, and her jade hands were flying, condensing a handprint.

"Haha!" Ling Yi laughed dryly. Knowing that these mercenaries had misunderstood, Ling Yi quickly said: "Junior passed by here, please don't take offense, senior."

This sentence was obviously meant for Mu Yingang, but after hearing this, Mu Yan'er's pretty face turned into ice, she let out a sweet scolding, and her handprints came out.

"Frost Flying Sky Seal!"

"Boom!" The handprint that was still flying in Mu Yan'er's hand just now is now pushed into the air, but it is rapidly expanding, suppressing the air in front, making a roaring sound, and the momentum is amazing.

Thousands of lights and shadows!

With a sharp look, Ling Yi slashed with his sword. Thousands of countless sword lights rushed out, across the sky, landed down, and struck hard on the handprint.

boom!

After the loud bang, the handprints shattered into pieces, and the rest of the sword light came with a blast, flying directly towards Mu Yan'er.

"Damn brat!" In a flash, Yan Wu was the first to come forward with a sword. Seeing that Mu Yan'er was about to die at the hands of Ling Yi, he couldn't bear it anymore and stepped heavily on the ground with the sword in his hand.

Down with a bang

"The Sky Eagle kills with all his might!"

A loud roar came from Iwatake's mouth. He looked like a giant eagle swooping down, and the long sword in his hand turned into a black eagle, and was thrown into the air. Immediately, he fell down hard, with a sound that broke through the air.

The explosion sound was actually countless rays of sword light that broke through Ling Yi and swept towards Ling Yi.

Everyone was shocked. Even Mu Yan'er was covering her red lips with her beautiful hands and her beautiful eyes were wide open. Only Mu Yingang had no expression change from beginning to end, just looking at Ling Yi coldly.

The long sword transformed into a black eagle, causing Ling Yi's face to become serious. He could feel the ferocious energy hidden in this long sword. This eagle killed people, and he must not be underestimated easily.

"Seize the Soul and Tear Hands!" He shouted in his heart, Ling Yi pushed with both palms, and a strange strong wind erupted violently, as if to tear the world apart.

"Boom!" The two collided violently, and the huge wind pressure slapped the surrounding air, causing the air to distort.

Mu Yin's tightly squinted eyes suddenly widened at this moment. Mu Yan'er also looked at this scene in disbelief, her pretty face covered with a layer of deep surprise, and the surrounding mercenaries were even more stunned.

Iwatake is a fifth-level soul king. That kid doesn't seem to attract much attention, but he is actually able to withstand Iwatake's strongest killing move!

"Asshole!" As the person involved, Yanwu was even more furious. His most powerful move was actually easily cracked. How could he be willing to do so?

Raising the common weapon in his hand, Iwatake was about to rush away. With a loud roar, his movements instantly stopped on the spot.

"Yanwu, stop!" Mu Yingang roared in a deep voice, his eyes immediately fixed on Ling Yi, and finally stopped on the Luanyun Sword in Ling Yi's hand, his eyes flickering in surprise.

"Your Excellency is quite capable, but if you don't give me an explanation today, our Yinyan Mercenary Group will not be able to let you leave here," Mu Yingang said coldly.

"I said, I'm just passing by here. If senior doesn't believe it, I can't do anything about it!" Ling Yi spread his hands, feeling helpless.

"You!" Mu Yaner gritted her teeth tightly, but she was so angry that she couldn't speak.

"Did you hear the conversation between me and my subordinates?" Mu Yingang asked with a cold expression.

Frowning, Ling Yi smiled and said: "Listening means you heard it, but if you don't understand, it means you didn't hear it."

"Hmph! Now that I heard it, why should I let you leave?" Iwatake said angrily, clenching his fists tightly and making constant explosions.

"Yanwu, don't be rude!" Mu Yingang glared at Yanwu and turned around, with a smile on his cold face.

However, in Ling Yi's eyes, this smile had a different feeling.

"Since my little brother heard the conversation between me and my subordinates, it should be clear that deep in the Death Mountain Forest, there is something that our Yinyan Mercenary Group wants to get, so please come with us, little brother!

"Mu Ying smiled politely.

Ling Yi sneered in his heart. Naturally, Ling Yi knew that Mu Yingang wanted to win over him. The stronger he was, the more likely he was to succeed. However, Ling Yi didn't buy it.

"Captain Mu is too flattering to me, and my strength is low. It's better not to drag everyone down." Ling Yi cupped his fists and said

"Dad, since he doesn't want to go, just kill him!" Mu Yan'er sneered.

"Yan'er, what you said is wrong!" Mu Yingang shook his head, smiled at Ling Yi, became more polite, and said: "Little brother, do you know why the Sky Snake mercenary group is chasing after him?"

Are you down?"

"I don't know" and shook his head. Ling Yi really didn't understand what Mu Yingang was doing, so he had to answer as he said.

Raising the big sword in his hand, Mu Yingang smiled and said: "This big sword is a spiritual weapon that our Yinyan mercenary group snatched from the Heavenly Serpent mercenary group. It has the talisman array of the talisman master on it.

, take it and take a look.”
