Chapter 979 Magical Weapons and Incidents

It was midsummer, but there was no sign of vitality in the Hexi Corridor. Strong winds, carrying rolling heat waves, swept in from the endless yellow sand.

At dusk, the setting sun was as red as blood, and the huge sunset dyed the entire sky a deep red. The afterglow poured down on the endless sand dunes, and the yellow sand seemed to be ignited. The dazzling red-gold light was so dazzling that it made people almost unable to open their eyes.

The howling wind was like the screams of thousands of evil spirits, blowing up gravel and making people's faces hurt like a knife.

No...it's not like that, there really are thousands of evil ghosts roaring!

On the yellow sand, the Xishuo army was densely packed like locusts, surrounding a hill of earth without any escape. The military flags fluttered in the strong wind, and the camp was filled with a thick murderous atmosphere.

At the foot of the earthen mountain, outside a cave, hundreds of ghost cultivators sat in a circle, emitting faint green ghost fire all around them. Countless wronged souls surrounded them, making shrill and terrifying screams and constantly crashing into the cave entrance.

The entrance of the cave was covered with a thin layer of black gauze, and several figures could be vaguely seen in the cave. The black gauze was so thin that it seemed that it could be pierced by a finger, but it blocked the countless wronged souls and ghosts.

The people in the cave were Tang Jiao and others.

Tang Jiao, Xuanyi Zhenren, Zhusha Zhenren, Yu Elder, Hua Xiaolan, Kua Ye and the others all had solemn expressions, and the atmosphere was so depressing that it made people feel breathless.

They originally had a companion... Wu Yue, but Wu Yue had been separated from them during the previous escape when he was trying to lead a group of enemies away.

Not to mention Ding Shuanghe and others whom they had rescued before. Those people had their cultivation destroyed and could not help at all. They could only be dismissed and asked to find a place to recuperate on their own.

True Man Xuan Yi, True Man Zhu Sha, and Elder Yu, the three of them sat at the entrance of the cave, pinching their hands to make magic gestures, and their true energy continuously flowed towards the black gauze, supporting the existence of this magic weapon.

Kua Ye huddled in the corner of the cave, coughing up blood continuously - in the previous escape battle, because three Cave Heaven Realm powerhouses were trapped by the ghost cultivators, he managed to break into the enemy formation of the Xishuo Army and forcibly killed the enemy general, but was also injured.

Hua Xiaolan looked at his appearance, sighed helplessly, took out a small pill from her sleeve, and stuffed it into his mouth.

“This is the last one.”

She said, "You have to hold on a little longer. If you can't hold on, there will be no leader left in Wandu Mountain."

Kua Ye swallowed the pill, his face turned slightly redder, and he said with a sad smile: "It doesn't matter if I can't hold on, as long as you can hold on, this position of sect master... was originally yours."

Hua Xiaolan's face darkened slightly and she turned her gaze to Tang Jiao who was standing beside her.

Strictly speaking, they were able to survive all this time thanks to Tang Jiao.

The three Cave Heaven Realm masters were very powerful, but those ghost cultivators of the Xishuo Army were also very strange. The three Cave Heaven Realm masters didn't even dare to take the three juniors with them to escape. Before they reached the Xuanxing Realm, they couldn't fly silently in the air, which was equivalent to making themselves targets.

On the contrary, it was Tang Jiao who, like a magician, produced magic weapons from the Qiankun Ring on her wrist, breaking through the siege of the ghost cultivators and the pursuit of the Xishuo Army time and time again, and hiding her figure with everyone time and time again...

Even the black veil at the entrance of the cave was a magic weapon she obtained.

At this time, Tang Jiao was sitting on the other side of the cave, holding an extremely old copper coin sword in her hand. She had half of it inserted into the ground, and she kept chanting something.

It was obvious that it was very difficult for her to use this magic weapon. The knuckles of her hands had turned white and her temples were wet with sweat.

Hua Xiaolan knew that Tang Jiao was trying to use this magic weapon... to dig a tunnel to escape!
"You take a break, I'll do it."

Hua Xiaolan walked over to Tang Jiao and whispered, "At least my spiritual acupoints have been opened, so I can hold on for a little longer."

"it is good."

Tang Jiao didn't say anything nonsense. She breathed a sigh of relief and loosened her hands.

Hua Xiaolan immediately took over her position, knelt down on the spot, and grasped the hilt of the copper coin sword with both hands. In an instant, the true energy in her body suddenly rushed to the copper coin sword, and the twists and turns under the ground that had been quietly dug out by the sword energy also appeared in her mind.

After letting go, Tang Jiao immediately collapsed to the side, gasping for breath. "Ms. Tang, how long will it take for us to escape?" Kua Ye asked weakly.

Tang Jiao glanced at him, was silent for a moment, and slowly said, "At least two days."

"Two days?"

Kua Ye looked worriedly at the three cave-heaven warriors who were supporting the magic weapons at the entrance of the cave.

It was also two days ago that they had run out of food and water.

At their level, not eating or drinking for a few days is naturally a small problem, but Kua Ye is already injured, and if he does not eat or drink for a few days, his injuries will probably become more serious.

"It seems that I really need to explain."

Kua Ye smiled bitterly and said, "Life is so hard. Why do I feel like I have been constantly injured these past few years?"

At this moment, the three powerful cave masters at the entrance of the cave suddenly let out a muffled groan at the same time!
Not only that, the black gauze also began to tremble violently. It was no longer as smooth and smooth as before, but floated like waves, shaking extremely violently!
"What's wrong!"

Tang Jiao had just sat down when she suddenly jumped up again.

"They...are coming again..." Xuan Yi Zhenren gritted his teeth and said, "I'm afraid they are...ghost cultivators from the Cave Heaven Realm!"

A ghost cultivator from the Cave Heaven Realm? !
Tang Jiao felt a chill in her heart.

There are only so many cave realm cultivators in the martial arts world, and I have never heard of a ghost cultivator in the cave realm before. Where did this one come from? !
More importantly, in order to catch me, even such a master was dispatched? !
"He is from the Demonic Cult."

Elder Yu's voice was calm, yet deep enough to make one's heart palpitate: "A few days ago in Hualan County, when you were dealing with the Xishuo Army and I was dealing with the people from the Demon Sect, we discovered that there were some very powerful ghost cultivators among them..."

"In Hualan County, I have already sent the letter, and it will definitely reach Big Brother."

Tang Jiao interrupted her and whispered, "He knows we will come to the Hexi Corridor and will definitely come to rescue us."

"..."

The only response she got was silence.

Even if Fu Qingzhou could come, could he rescue people when surrounded by so many Xishuo soldiers and so many ghost masters?
Frankly speaking, even if a Xuanxing master came at this moment... he might not be able to save people!

"Ha ha……"

Zhu Sha Zhenren suddenly laughed: "If I had known that this journey would be so dangerous, the head sister should have sent more people."

"Ahem..." Kua Ye said helplessly, "Then we have to send the entire Xuanmeng."

As he spoke, the black veil began to tremble even more violently. The bodies of the three Cave Heaven Realm masters also trembled, and blood began to seep from the corners of their mouths!

The atmosphere in the cave became even more depressing.

In this situation, I am afraid...

At this moment, a loud shout suddenly came from outside the cave!
"Urgent report! Urgent report!"

The sound was so loud that it even drowned out the noisy voices of the Xishuo army and the howling of thousands of ghosts!
"Fu Qingzhou is trapped more than 200 miles away! Our army has surrounded him, but we can't catch or kill him! I am following the general's order to dispatch troops to surround and kill Fu Qingzhou!"
