Volume 1 Chapter 676 There Is a Sect
Chapter 676 There is a sect
A fairy boy said, "Tell me, what happened?" The first gray-robed Taoist priest recounted what he had said to the red-robed ghost messenger to the two adults.
The two fairy boys didn't take it seriously: "In such a large desert, who knows what powerful monsters or passing cultivators will be encountered? It's normal to be destroyed." However, according to their duties, they still searched carefully and went to the place where the wind puppet and the ghost soldiers disappeared, but they still found nothing.
Perhaps they were careless and didn't expect that there would be someone lurking in the sky. They didn't find Fei Zhi parked at an altitude of 100 miles.
A fairy boy said, "That's it, you are unlucky, nothing serious." The two returned to Feisha Valley, and the three Taoist priests bowed and saw them off, and then returned to the underground.
This time Zhang Pa didn't go back with him, he wanted to discuss with Fang Jian. Flying into the clouds in the sky, Zhang Tianfang lay down and slept, Fang Jian hugged a bag of sand bears, and was fully alert.
Zhang Pa entered Feizhi and told Fang Jian about the situation in the Sand Valley. He asked Fang Jian, "I want to destroy them." Zhang Tianfang was very happy: "Okay." Fang Jian thought for a while and asked, "Where is Tiexian Valley?"
Zhang Pa was stunned. He didn't look at the jade slip because he decided not to cause trouble. After hearing Fang Jian's question, he took out the jade slip and looked at it. He was surprised: "Is Tiexian Valley in the desert?"
When in the Holy Kingdom, someone was crazy looking for Tiexian Valley, but he couldn't find it. Who would have thought that Tiexian Valley was not in the Holy Kingdom at all, but in the boundless desert.
Fang Jian took the jade slip and read it, flew out and turned around, and said, "Look at the terrain, it should be in the north."
"It's the same on all four sides, which side is north? Besides, what terrain is there here? Isn't it all sand?" Zhang Tianfang asked.
"You are so ignorant." Zhang Pa said to him and flew out to observe. Fortunately, the sun was high and it was easy to identify the direction. He estimated his position first, and then confirmed the location of Guigu according to the map. It was in his north and far away. Fly back and ask: "What should we do now?"
"What should we do? Kill!" Zhang Tianfang's answer is always direct.
Fang Jian is not as stubborn as Zhang Tianfang. He understands what Zhang Pa asked and smiles: "I don't know if you are too lucky or unlucky. You can encounter anything. You decide."
Let's not talk about anything else. Just talking about the beast tide, if it happens frequently, there must be cultivators who have discovered it long ago. Of course, cultivators may also be killed by these Taoists in red, white, black and gray, but there should always be a few people who escape. As long as someone can escape, the Holy City will definitely know about it. But why did they send people all over the world to hunt down the 32 places of rebellion, but no one talked about the desert beast tide?
Also, there are monsters in the desert, and nineteen sand bears can be caught in a row, but these bear catchers didn't see the beast tide? If there is nothing strange, what a good luck it is.
Zhang Pa said, "Let's go to Tiexian Valley. If we can find the five great monks, we can ask them. Maybe we can find out what's going on."
From what he saw, this unknown sect had many people, and the hierarchy was strict. There were many masters. Zhang Pa couldn't kill them all no matter how powerful he was. He asked Fang Jian what to do. He asked if he should just kill as many as he could? Or should he wait and see if it was possible to wipe out the enemy completely.
At the same time, there was another problem. This strange sect was located in the desert. It was unknown whether it had any relationship with Tiexian Valley. This was a very critical point. We must figure it out before we can deal with these Taoists with confidence.
Just when he was about to urge Feizhi, a man flew over from the direction of Shagu. He was wearing a black Taoist robe and was tall. He was the venerable who had just displayed his divine power but failed to find Zhang Pa. He stopped in front of the sand cave where the gray-robed disciples were hiding and shouted, "Come out."
It was a pity that the three gray-robed disciples came up again not long after they went down. They bowed and greeted each other, which was much more respectful than the two fairy children.
The big man said coldly: "Tell me what happened."
The gray-robed Taoist told the whole process for the third time. After listening, the big man looked at the three people carefully and said softly: "The cultivation level has improved very quickly."
After these words, the three gray-robed Taoists turned pale and trembled and couldn't stand up.
"Tell me, who took the lead?" The big man said coldly.
The three gray-robed Taoists just trembled and dared not speak. The big man sneered: "I will only ask once."
The three people finally couldn't hold it anymore and knelt down one after another. One of them said in a trembling voice: "The disciple has been practicing hard for several years without progress. It's a rare opportunity to go out to collect blood essence, so..."
"So, you took the lead?" A cold light flashed in the big man's eyes.
"Yes, it's the disciple." The man gritted his teeth and admitted it on the spot.
"Very good, very good, daring to act, worthy of my disciples of the Holy Gate, you go." The cold voice easily judged the life and death of others.
The disciple probably couldn't escape. If he didn't kill himself, he would be in endless pain. He stopped talking nonsense, looked back at his two companions, and reversed his whole body skills. With a bang, his heart and brain exploded at the same time, blood flowed from his mouth and nose, and he fell forward and died instantly.
The big man looked at the other two people, who kowtowed and cried, "Your Excellency, spare me, Your Excellency, spare me." The Excellency bowed his head and thought, then asked, "Do you know what's wrong?" The two hurriedly replied, "We didn't follow the sect master's rules to collect the souls and blood one by one."
The big man said: "Our Saint Sect has been secluded here for ten thousand years, and we don't want the world to know. Even if we use puppet magic to collect the souls necessary for cultivation, we can only collect them one by one slowly, because we are afraid of being discovered by the cultivators. In the past ten thousand years, there were also disciples who were disobedient and liked to be lazy. They drove the insects and beasts to one place and collected them in groups. The speed was fast, but it also brought danger to the Saint Sect. Therefore, anyone who did this must be killed. But you dared to go against the rules of the sect and concealed the essence and blood for your own cultivation. Alas, go with you."
When the two heard this, they were going to die too? They cursed themselves for being unlucky. Many disciples who were sent out did this, but the three of them were discovered. They stole a glance at the big man, who was staring at them coldly. The two knew that it was over and they had no chance of survival. The last ray of hope disappeared, and they were determined to die. Like the first gray-robed Taoist, they committed suicide.
The big man looked at the three dead people, raised his sleeves, and threw the three bodies far away. They exploded into pieces and fell into the desert. As long as there was a gust of wind and a layer of yellow sand, it would easily cover the three bodies without leaving any clues. This was the simplest way to destroy the bodies.
Then he went into a cave under the sand layer and came out soon. He held a bronze tripod in his hand, which was much larger than the one Zhang Pa had snatched back from the skull zombie. The mouth of the tripod was also black. It might contain souls or blood essence, which could not be seen from the outside. He held it and flew back.
Zhang Pa listened to the conversation just now in full, which helped him solve the doubts in his heart. No wonder no one had discovered it after many years. They caught insects and beasts one by one. As long as they were not greedy and did not form a beast tide, who would care? The appearance of a small wind roll in the desert was really nothing special. The wind puppet in it was lifeless. Ordinary cultivators could not find it at all, so they naturally would not come to find out. This group of people could continue to hide.
It was just unexpected that this black man was very careful. The story of the gray-robed Taoist was told three times. No one could find the problem in the first two times. Only the black man noticed something wrong, rushed to ask, and then convicted them, and asked them to commit suicide to apologize.
When the big man disappeared, Zhang Tianfang asked: "Go to Tiexian Valley?" Zhang Pa nodded. He had to go and see it anyway. There is a saying that only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win every battle.
Fei Zhi flew north and took out the map and looked at it again and again. This is the only bad thing about the desert. Except for the sun, there are no landmarks. Everything looks the same, just like in the sea. It all depends on experience to lead the way.
While flying and looking for the way, the speed was not too fast. Soon a day passed, and he did not find Tiexian Valley, but saw several small wind rolls spinning and raging in the desert. There was no life in the wind rolls, and one or more wild beasts were running wildly around the wind rolls. Zhang Pa looked at it and nodded secretly. Those Taoists were really scheming. As long as the people below were not greedy and did not hunt crazily, and did not form a beast tide, they would not attract the attention of the cultivators. No wonder such a large sect could hide for thousands of years without being discovered.
With his nature, he would try his best to rescue even ants, so he cut off the wind scroll, refined and burned the wind puppet, saved lives, and then continued on his way. He also knew that the wind puppet could be refined at will, but saving a life was a life, and other things would be discussed later.
The night in the desert was cold, and there would be sandstorms during the wind season. Zhang Pa was not afraid of the storm, but it was really troublesome to travel in the storm. There was no need to fight against the power of heaven and earth and tire himself out, so he landed and rested that night.
After landing, he released the sand bears, a lot of living things, and they couldn't be trapped in the cloth bag every day. The nineteen little guys had different natures. Some of them didn't want to move, so they crawled to Zhang Pa's side and lay down to rest after they came out. More sand bears were lively and active. They had just come to this world and were curious about everything. They especially liked sand by nature and ran around and had a lot of fun.
In order to take care of the sand bears, Zhang Pa did not put out the tent and sat in the dark night. Zhang Tianfang did not like to be locked up in the house alone, so he did not put out the tent. Fang Jian followed them and the three of them sat on the yellow sand.
The little sand bears were having fun. Some of them were smart and knew how to push the sand in. They were clumsy at first, but soon they became smart and quickly got in and out of the sand. They were completely different from their usual clumsy and cute appearance. No wonder they were called sand bears. It was their nature to be with the sand.
Seeing them happy, Zhang Pa felt a little sorry. Sand bears should live in the desert. Should he really take them away to a place without sand? Thinking of asking Fang Jian if he should do this, the ground suddenly shook slightly, so slightly that it was almost imperceptible. But this kind of vibration was no match for a Yuanying master. Zhang Pa and Fang Jian looked at each other, stood up, and with a few leaps, they had already caught all the sand bears.
Five monsters were rushing towards them from underground. Although they could not figure out their intentions, Zhang Pa did not want to embarrass them. He put the sand bears into his big bag, lifted himself up, and flew up five meters into the air, looking down. Zhang Tianfang and Fang Jian followed him up.
