Defying the Martial Way to Burn the Heavens

Chapter 2024: Unexpected Encounter

Only a small number of the warriors in charge of the Su Wang family who were responsible for the exploration had a flash of uneasiness in their hearts when they came to the old district in the north of the city, and then these people chose to retreat quietly.

This kind of scattered exploration task was not commanded in the form of a team, but everyone received the same order and carried it out separately. Everyone who explored in this way has absolute autonomy, and can choose to retreat at any time and anywhere, or choose to take risks and explore to the limit.

Therefore, some warriors who are also charged with stealth and espionage tasks are promoted quickly, and can become commander-level figures in just a dozen years, while others have been the same for more than ten years, without major mistakes or major achievements.

The former certainly has more opportunities for promotion, but also has to take greater risks, and high mortality is inevitable. The latter is safe and sound, and most of them can live for a long time, and of course they will not be valued by the people above.

At this moment, there is such a group of people outside the old city. They sensed the danger, so they did not go deep into the old city and quietly withdrew and went back to the Su family mansion to report the news.

Of course, there were still a large number of people who quietly began to lurk inside, while the periphery of the old district in the north of the city was also calm at this time. These people went all the way inside without discovering anything.

However, they did not realize that not far behind them, there were four people approaching quietly. Although the four of them were not very good at hiding, they were better at cultivation. The leader was even at the peak of the Naqi period, one level higher than Su Qiang, and almost the same level as Su Ming.

The leader was the elder Wu, and he was followed by three strong men in the middle stage of Naqi. Although the elder Wu was not good at hiding, he had studied the energy of mental power first.

He could vaguely judge the positions of several Su Wang family warriors in front, so they followed behind and explored forward, and the four of them did not encounter any danger.

Moving forward at a steady pace, these people finally gradually passed through the periphery of the old city, and then began to head towards the interior of the old city. To be precise, this is where the formation group of the Lin family's Shu family lineage is located.

However, after the attack by the Su Wang family and the subsequent pursuit by the ghost painter, the remaining formations in the old city have become very few. Moreover, the center of the main control formation has been destroyed, and the protective formation in the core area has been swallowed by the formation of the Nether Clan. Even if the formation group is still there, it will not pose a threat to any intruder.

After these Su Wang family warriors came here, their speed began to slow down. It's not that they don't want to increase their speed, but these people have no way to speed up in the thick fog.

The outer side of the old district in the north of the city is a circular fortress-style defensive building. This kind of building is very regular, and it is effortless to identify the direction. However, after entering the inner area, the buildings will decrease accordingly, and there are even small forests and lakes in many places, which also caused some trouble for the warriors to identify the direction.

Fortunately, everyone's goal has always been clear. In the process of moving forward, they always maintain a general direction, that is, to move towards the core position of the old district in the north of the city.

In the process of moving forward, the people in charge of the exploration of the Su Wang family were surprised to find something. There was not a single living person in the old district in the north of the city. Although there should be very few, there should not be no living person at all.

When they retreated from here before, in addition to the scattered warriors of the Su Wang family and the City Lord's Mansion, there were also the escaped Shu family strongmen. In addition, the ghost painter, the Mu family and the three major gangs should also have remnants left here.

Because the battle tonight was too intense, the rhythm was a kind of fast-beat fast, and the people from the three parties were racing against time. Some people were injured and unable to move, so they could only stay here temporarily.

But they didn't find a single living person along the way, and even didn't leave a complete corpse. When seeing such a scene, everyone felt that something was wrong, but everyone continued to explore and move forward.

These people could feel that they might not be far away from the final goal of their exploration, because if they continued to move forward, they would enter the core position of the old city.

Just as this group of warriors from the Su Wang family continued to explore and move forward, approaching the core area, suddenly there were faint flashes of light inside the core area. Because the light penetrated the fog, it was a white light in everyone's eyes.

As the light flashed, it was accompanied by waves coming from the inside. Some people were shocked after sensing it slightly, and at the same time, they hurriedly shouted "It's the teleportation array" and flew back with all their strength.

There was a hint of deep fear in their anxious voices, and the voice spread instantly, quickly transmitted in this empty area, and almost fell into the ears of every Su Wang family warrior present.

At this time, everyone naturally would not hesitate anymore. The teleportation array was in operation, and everyone knew without guessing that the Nether Beasts must have come from here. The danger was right in front of them. Not to mention that all kinds of information had been obtained, even if there was no gain, everyone would choose to leave quickly.

The warriors of the Su Wang family quickly retreated and rushed to the back, and almost everyone exerted their speed to the extreme.

At the same time, in the core position of the light, gray and slightly bloated figures emerged one by one. There was no difference from before, they were all Netherworld beasts with blood-red eyes staring at them.

After emerging from it, those Netherworld beasts immediately noticed the aura of human warriors around them. Without any order or hesitation at all, the Nether Beasts that walked out of the formation rushed out before they could gather together.

The sense of smell and perception of the Netherworld beasts far exceed those of humans. After they broke out of the formation, they immediately chased after them. The subsequent Netherworld beasts continued to walk out of the formation and chased after them one by one.

The warriors and the Netherworld Beasts fled and chased each other, and began to leave the core area at a terrifying speed. The warriors of the Prince Su family were all nervous and frightened. They did not expect such a coincidence that as soon as they and others arrived here, they would encounter the Netherworld beast that had just teleported.

Not only were the human warriors caught off guard and fled in fear, but each of the Netherworld beasts that had just appeared were also caught off guard, and what they felt in their hearts was not fear, but fear.

Because the formation was in operation just now, the same people on the other side were constantly entering it. If there was a problem with the teleportation formation here during this process, or it was directly destroyed. The Nether Beasts on the other side continue to enter it without knowing it. The result will be that the formation is distorted, and the distorted space force after the collapse sends them into the space turbulence unknown how far away.

Therefore, they, the Netherworld Beasts, were equally afraid, and then vented all their anger on these human warriors who were close to the formation. As a result, the pursuit became more intense. The first dozen or so Nether Beasts that rushed out from the formation were chasing the surroundings at full speed.

At the same time that the Su Wang family warrior issued a warning, Elder Wu and his three subordinates who were not far behind them also heard it clearly. And while the three of them were shocked, they even started to retreat first.

In particular, the cultivation of the four of them was much higher than that of the warriors of the Suwang family, so they fled with all their strength and soon succeeded in leaving behind the humans and the Netherworld beasts.

In just a few breaths, the Netherworld Beast had already caught up with the two human warriors. Although the first Nether Beasts to arrive were only at the fourth level, their ability to control the air was stronger than those of Qi-sensing stage warriors, and their speed was also faster.

In the pure white mist, the billowing black mist rolled in from behind and directly enveloped the fleeing Su family warrior who was at the peak of his sense of energy.

The Su family warrior, who was wrapped in black mist, suddenly moved slowly and had difficulty in moving his spiritual energy. The Netherworld Beast waved its sharp claws and struck hard at the warrior's body.

Although the Su family warrior was trapped in the black mist, he still struggled to fight back between life and death. The sound of metal collisions continued to be heard in the black mist, and it seemed that the Su family warrior was not at a disadvantage.

Until another Netherworld beast broke in, there were angry shouts and roars from humans. The sound was loud at first, then gradually became quieter, until it finally disappeared completely.

This was the first human being that the group of Netherworld Beasts encountered after teleporting in. After the two Netherworld Beasts killed him, not a single bit was left. Apart from broken clothes and weapons, the flesh, flesh and bones on his body were all gone. All were devoured.

The killing had already begun, and the battle here had just ended. Not far away, there was the sound of clashes, and the warriors' angry shouts and roars came one after another, and finally turned into horrified howls.

Warriors were killed one after another, and the cruel aura of the Netherworld Beast spread out unbridled, and it quickly started to chase them from behind.

Of all the humans present, the one with the clearest perception of the Netherworld Beast's situation was Elder Wu. He could feel that in the thick fog, the harder he and others flew, the more clearly the Netherworld Beast would be able to determine his position.

Especially when the four of them gather together, the aura released is stronger and easier to be captured by the Netherworld Beast. If you don't want four people to escape in separate ways and narrow down the target, then you can only choose to hide.

As soon as he thought of this, the elder named Wu immediately whispered: "Speed ​​up and see if there are any damaged houses in the distance. Enter them and lurk. Don't show your face without my order. Remember, do your best to restrain your anger." Breath, don’t bring trouble to everyone.”

After Elder Wu finished speaking, he pointed to three nearby houses, and then rushed towards a half-collapsed house alone. This place has entered the outskirts of the old city, and the three men immediately spread out and took cover without any hesitation.

And not long after they dispersed and lurked, a small group of more than a dozen Netherworld beasts roared past here. Although they lost the aura of tracking, they still continued to chase in the original direction without giving up.
