Chapter 222 The oriole is behind
Chapter 222 The oriole is behind
"Let me see what you are going to use to make the trap. Could it be the Purple Mansion Divine Bamboo? Haha!"
Facing a group of people coming at them aggressively, the people on Xiangshan knew that things were not going well. Explanations were all bullshit because they had just ambushed the other party. Now they were caught red-handed by them again. They could only use all their strength to activate the half-finished magic circle and fight to the death.
The brilliant spiritual energy continued to explode.
However, the result was already doomed. The difference in numbers was too great, and coupled with the advance preparation, the few people on the mountain were beaten to pieces before long under the siege of a group of people.
Xiangshan, as the site of the gunfight between the two sides, was not spared. It was directly blown up, revealing the scene inside.
A vast purple air instantly swept across the sky and the earth, reaching far and wide.
Everyone present was intoxicated and entered the Tao gracefully.
"Purple Mansion Divine Bamboo!" Zu Mengran exclaimed excitedly.
The Purple Mansion Divine Bamboo had been hidden inside the mountain for many years. Its sudden appearance had an impact on Wang Xiao and the others who were hiding far away.
Not to mention the group of people in the center, the dazzling purple clouds made them almost lost in the dreamlike rhyme of Tao.
However, none of the people present were ordinary people. They quickly walked out of the lingering Taoist rhyme and rushed to seize the real opportunity.
A woman emitting a white halo was the first to wake up. She instantly appeared in front of the Purple Mansion Divine Bamboo and stretched out her arms to grab it.
"puff!"
A silver-white knife light flashed from far to near, and the woman's excited expression suddenly froze. Her entire arm was separated from her body at the shoulder, and the cut was as smooth as a mirror.
Then another red light exploded behind the woman, and the woman was blown several miles away by the impact of the explosion. She was covered in blood and lay listlessly in the pit, but no one cared about her anymore. They all attacked the people around them to seize the initiative.
A group of people who had just been cooperating suddenly attacked each other and fought fiercely. There was no trace of their previous unity. The momentum and means were even more violent than those used against them.
This is the Purple Palace Divine Bamboo, a divine object that practitioners of Taoism dream of. After refining it, not only can one get closer to the Tao and accelerate cultivation, but it can also prevent one from getting lost on the road and going astray.
Because of its mild medicinal properties, it can be directly absorbed by cultivators to increase their cultivation. It is many times safer than Wang Xiao's risky approach of absorbing the blood of gods.
"Bamboo grows into five sections, and we each take one section."
Wang Xiao, Bai Zhu and Ji De watched with drool and tried hard to resist the urge to attack.
All they have to do now is to hold back and let that group of people fight for a while!
After a while, the originally beautiful Xiangshan Mountain had already become dilapidated. The surrounding area had become bare, the land was full of deep pits and cracks, black smoke was lingering around the beacon fire, and the remains of humans and monsters were scattered everywhere.
After the flames shot up into the sky, only two teams were left confronting each other in the sky, with three people on each side. They gasped for breath with their chests heaving, stuffing elixirs into their mouths, trying to recover their spiritual energy as much as possible to sustain the next battle.
At this point, they are not only fighting for the sacred bamboo, but also for survival.
The commotion at the scene was too loud, and Wang Xiao knew they couldn't wait any longer. If they waited too long, it would only cause more trouble if more people came.
"There is no need for you to fight anymore. We want the Purple Mansion Divine Bamboo." Five figures, three men and two women, appeared near the remaining two teams.
"We have no grudges against you, so let's just leave." One of the thin men spoke up. He looked ordinary, the type that no one would pay much attention to if he were in a crowd, but from the attitudes of the four people around him, it can be seen that he is the leader of the team.
Behind the man was a woman whose dress style was different from the others.
"Shi Haoqian."
"Sato Reiko."
Wang Xiao and Li Jingyi exchanged a glance and then sent a message to Ji De: "When the fight starts, activate the magic circle and attack them by surprise. Remember to activate the magic circle to its maximum power, and it would be best if you can kill one or two of them directly."
"Why do you have a grudge against them?"
"Hey, Brother Ji, you don't understand this." Bai Zhu grinned evilly and kept winking at him.
"Oh..." Jide was also very smart and smiled meaningfully.
"Ahem, it's just a little hatred that arose when we first entered this world. We are ready to take action at any time."
With the appearance of the five of them, the atmosphere in the field changed subtly. The six people who were still alive felt that they shared a common hatred for the enemy. After all, after fighting for half a day, someone came out to pick peaches. Who could be angry?
"You little rat, is the only thing you humans can do to take advantage of others when they are in trouble?" The tall man with scales on his hands was cold and cruel, and his clothes were stained with the blood of various creatures.
"Oh, the human race has always been like this, cunning and treacherous." The woman on the other side who was proficient in magic circles mocked, but the jade pendant on her chest vibrated, her face changed slightly and then returned to normal.
“The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. We all thought we were the oriole, but we didn’t expect that.” After the woman finished speaking, she galloped away with the two people behind her.
"Oh, today's revenge will be avenged one day!"
Seeing this, the man in scale armor on the other side knew that he had no chance at all. He looked at the sacred bamboo in front of him reluctantly, and then withdrew from the fight for the sacred bamboo.
"A man who knows the times is a hero. You are wise enough to know your own limitations." Sato Reiko said in a poor accent.
She took a step forward and was about to hold the Purple Mansion Divine Bamboo in her hand, but in an instant, a black spear pierced through the space and was about to pierce through her body.
Shi Haoqian threw out a shield to protect her, as if he was prepared to deal with unexpected events or sneak attacks. He said lightly, "Do you want to be the scapegoat, too?"
"Forget the position of oriole. I prefer to be a hunter."
Wang Xiao, Bai Zhu, Ji De, Li Jingyi and Zu Mengran lined up and stood opposite them.
The atmosphere between the two sides was tense, only the sacred bamboo was floating quietly.
"It's Her Royal Highness the Princess." Shi Haoqian put away his wooden shield and looked at them with a slightly fluctuating expression. "The people next to the princess look a bit unfamiliar. Would you like to introduce them to me?"
"They are my friends from other countries, there is no need to introduce them." Li Jingyi walked forward slowly.
"In that case, let's do it." Sato Reiko immediately wanted to attack.
"slow!"
Shi Haoqian stretched out his hand to stop the four people behind him, and Ji De, who was about to activate the formation, also stopped.
"I said that I would retreat once I met the princess in this world. It was not an empty talk. Let's go."
"But the Purple Palace Divine Bamboo..."
Sato Reiko was unwilling to give up. The God-given opportunity was right in front of her. Was she going to give up just like that?
"I said, let's go, don't you understand?"
