Peerless Tang Sect's Splitting Claws Tearing the Sky

Everyone chose a bare hilltop as their base. The terrain here is higher and they can have a panoramic view of the surrounding environment. Looking into the distance, they can also see a small town looming between the mountains.

After confirming the location, everyone set up the camp with clear division of labor, and finally lit up a small bonfire before the night fell completely.

Nights in the mountains are always accompanied by thick fog and cold and damp weather.

However, since everyone has the lowest cultivation level and is the Soul King, there is no need to worry about the ordinary cold and heat, and the bonfire in front of them is generally more formal than practical.

After running around for two days, although he was not physically tired, he was always a little tired mentally. Therefore, Ye Ming lost interest in barbecue and simply ate some dry food with others before joining the vigil team.

The vigil is divided into two groups, divided into four groups, among which Ma Xiaotao, the captain, is alone. Perhaps out of concern, Ye Ming and Dai Yueheng were divided into a group in the latter half of the night.

After meditating in the middle of the night, the fatigue on his body had been swept away. When Ye Ming opened his eyes, he found that Dai Yueheng had woken up first. He was standing in front of the camp and looking at the night in the distance.

Ye Ming walked slowly to Dai Yueheng and said, "Senior Dai, Fenglangling should be located not far from the garrison guarding the border, right?"

"It's indeed not far." Dai Yueheng glanced at Ye Ming unexpectedly. He had already guessed the junior's doubts.

"Fenglangling not only serves as part of the border between the two countries, but it is actually also a buffer zone for the armies of the two countries. I don't know about Dou Ling, but the defenders on our Xingluo side are fully sufficient to protect the safety of the people."

"It's like that small town in the distance." Dai Yueheng proudly raised his hand and pointed forward, "That's the area under our actual control of the Star Luo Empire. Since the two countries reached a truce and reconciled, the Star Luo Empire has not been like Dou Ling." We will also withdraw most of our troops. If a disaster breaks out, the border gate not far from here will rush to help immediately. I think there must be something wrong with the Douling Empire."

It turned out to be the case.

Ye Ming's eyes were clear. Although Mu Tao, whom he was apprenticed to, was a general of the Douling Empire, he had to admit that Douling was the weakest country in the mainland.

Its only advantage is that it does not share a border with the Sun and Moon Empire, but neither its territory nor its internal resources are as good as those of the same sect's Heavenly Soul Empire. This also results in it being the country with the smallest standing troops, otherwise it would not be defeated by a Soul Empire in the future. When the Guiding Corps reached the vicinity of the capital, a level nine soul guided artillery shell was dropped and the country almost perished as a result!

Therefore, what Dai Yueheng said didn't make sense. Then the two of them talked for a while. Seeing that it was almost time for the changing of the guard, there was a sound of footsteps behind them.

"Sister Xiaotao..." Ye Ming turned around and saw Ma Xiaotao. He was about to say hello but suddenly stopped because he found that the girl's soul power was surging around her, as if she had just made a breakthrough.

"Have you broken through to level sixty-eight?" The one who spoke was Dai Yueheng. He frowned and asked, but his tone was affirmative.

"Yes, when I broke through just now, I felt a large amount of fire elements gathering in that direction." Ma Xiaotao admitted generously, but then pointed in the direction of the thick fog.

It was late at night, the fog was thick, and the visibility was naturally extremely low, but the two of them instantly understood that Ma Xiaotao was referring to the small town before.

"A lot of fire elements? Did something happen there..." Ye Ming murmured.

As soon as these words came out, Dai Yaoheng instantly felt that he was losing face. He had just boasted about the tranquility of the Star Luo border. If something unexpected happened, it would be a slap in the face too quickly.

"There is no point in guessing. Wake up the others and let's go take a look." Ma Xiaotao calmly gave the order. Regardless of whether it was an evil soul master who was responsible for the trouble, they would never sit idly by if they encountered it.

……

Most of the small towns located on the border are nameless, because they may be destroyed one day when the two countries go to war. Even if they have names, they only exist among the local population for a short time, and the country often does not pay too much attention to them.

This town is different from other places. Thanks to the truce and reconciliation between the two countries, its superior geographical location has made it the best choice for business exchanges between the two places. After decades of development, it has become There is the prototype of an ordinary small town.

Xinghe Town, this is its name.

The inns in the town were full every day, and the goods and belongings brought by merchants were piled from inside to outside, which shows its prosperity.

The reason why merchants gather here is not just geography, but the main reason is that the mayor of Xinghe Town is rumored to be an experienced old soul sect.

You must know that soul masters at the soul king level are generally the bottom line of ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts. They can serve as the master of a small city and can be called a strong person even if they look at the entire continent. However, this old soul sect's strength is only in the soul. Under the king, he is very disciplined. It can be said that half of the prosperity of Xinghe Town comes from this patron saint!

But tonight, the sky has changed.

A battle in the center of the town broke the tranquility. Before people went out to see what was happening, they saw a large number of men in black pouring in from all directions.

They held long knives of the same style, marched in an orderly manner, and quickly harvested all life in sight. Even if it encounters resistance from a spiritual master with advanced cultivation, he can be killed quickly with skillful cooperation!

Soon after, desperate wailings spread throughout the town. People with scared faces wanted to escape but found that the road had been blocked by fire. Their humble pleas for mercy were drowned in the roar of the fire, and the fire illuminated the area. In the center of the town square.

The protector's head was stuck on the flagpole as if he was being provoked. There was still a trace of rage and confusion on his face. The dripping blood dyed the flag with the Star Luo Empire logo underneath red, as if he was mocking the opponent. of incompetence.

When the seven people arrived with the flying soul guide, they happened to see this scene. As the eldest son of the White Tiger Duke, Dai Yueheng's face turned livid to the naked eye. Before anyone could react, he transformed into a violent white tiger and charged. Go into the queue of men in black.

The expressions of the remaining six people were also filled with anger. They understood that no matter what the identities of the men in black in front of them were and whether they were the target this time, what they did was no different from the evil soul masters.

"Xixi, you are good at speed and are responsible for rescuing survivors. Gongyang Mo, you assist Ling Luochen in controlling the fire."

Ma Xiaotao made arrangements with a face as cold as frost, while the others knew that the situation was critical, nodded in agreement, and joined in the rescue.

"Chen Zifeng, Ye Ming, you two come with me to kill people!"

After saying this, Ma Xiaotao finally could no longer suppress her furious emotions, turned around and rushed angrily downwards. Ye Ming and Chen Zifeng looked at each other, and each summoned their martial spirits to follow...
