Chapter 87 Lin Qingxue is arrested
After finishing his conversation with his senior brother, Ma Jian asked Gao Huohuo with a clear and innocent expression.
"Bai Qiang, isn't your third senior sister still a Golden Core cultivator?"
"I didn't say she reached the Golden Core stage! I only said she was going to surpass my second senior brother."
Okay, it seems he misunderstood; that's not what Bai Qiang meant.
After everyone finished their cultivation, they heard Bai Qiang say:
"I just chatted with my senior brother and the others about their recent situation. My senior brother asked me to give you his regards."
By the way, have your cultivation levels improved yet? My second senior brother and the others at home are making rapid progress.
Upon hearing this, Ye Lingyu, who had just emerged from her cultivation, immediately entered a meditative state once more.
The others didn't dare to delay either, and plunged back into their cultivation.
"Bai Qiang, you have a firm grasp on the art of speaking."
As Ma Jian spoke, he gave her a thumbs up.
"I'm just telling the truth."
What a truthful statement! If he hadn't heard it with his own ears, he probably would have been just as fooled as his senior brothers and sisters!
But their sect has genuine scrolls! No wonder they're all so powerful!
If every member of the Wind and Thunder Sect could be like that, they would probably have become a first-class sect long ago. They might not surpass the Azure Cloud Sect, but they would at least be on par with it!
This time, he cultivated for a whole night, and when Ye Lingyu woke up again, he immediately began his attempt to break through to the Golden Core stage.
The others quickly made way and formed a circle around her to protect her.
Gao Huohuo looked relieved. Third Senior Sister had finally reached the Golden Core stage. Next up would be Fifth Senior Brother and Seventh Senior Sister.
I've been using a lot of talismans and pills lately, so I'll ask them to restock.
When Ye Lingyu finally reached the Golden Core stage, Gao Huohuo happily stepped forward to congratulate her and asked Lou Chongxiao to give his third senior sister some pointers, ostensibly to consolidate her cultivation.
Thus, under Ye Lingyu's dimensional suppression at the Golden Core stage, Lou Chongxiao's cultivation also increased, and he finally entered the late Foundation Establishment stage.
The remaining fifth senior brother and seventh senior sister, seeing the pressure on their side, rolled up their sleeves and were about to continue, but were stopped by Gao Huohuo.
Let's leave here first. Third Senior Sister's advancement to the Golden Core stage was too commotion; I'm afraid that the demon beast from yesterday might come later.
She's not afraid when it comes alone, but it's a bit much when it brings the whole family.
The group had no choice but to leave together. Sure enough, not long after they left, the monster came looking for them with a group of relatives.
Seeing that the place was deserted, I was given another loving beating by all my aunts and uncles.
If this monster had any sense, it would have been on the list many times over.
"Bai Qiang, we can't even use our swords to fly up from here, how are we going to get up?"
Looking at the towering, steep cliffs shrouded in mist, Ma Jian asked anxiously.
This place seemed to be suppressed by a mysterious force, rendering their usual skill in sword control completely ineffective. The group was trapped in this deep valley, with no way out.
Bai Qiang remained calm and composed, glancing around lightly before speaking unhurriedly:
"What's the rush? Since the bottom of this cliff is designed this way, there must be some treasure hidden down there. Let's search around first."
Having said that, he crossed his arms, his eyes revealing an inquisitive interest.
Since she was already there, Gao Huohuo felt it would be a waste not to take something with her, especially since her third senior sister's cultivation had greatly improved.
Even if they encounter those ferocious monsters again, they certainly won't flee in such a sorry state as last time.
The group of six then began their exploration in the valley. Fortunately, it seemed that only the group of monsters from before were currently roaming around this area.
As they walked, they kept a close eye on their surroundings, not missing any clues.
"Seventh Senior Sister, look at this fruit, can it be used for alchemy?"
Gao Huohuo's eyes lit up, and he pointed to a strangely colored fruit on the branch and shouted.
Upon hearing the sound, everyone turned to look at Lin Qingxue behind them, only to find that there was no one there.
"Where is Seventh Senior Sister?" Lou Chongxiao's eyes widened instantly, his face full of questions.
Gao Huo's heart sank, and he quickly focused his attention to check Lin Qingxue's location on his storage ring.
Upon closer inspection, I broke out in a cold sweat. The red dot for positioning was like a frantically beating heart, constantly changing, and changing rapidly at that.
"Seventh Senior Sister has been captured by something and is moving very fast. Let's chase after her!"
Gao Huohuo roared and sprinted off in the direction of the change in location. Everyone's expressions tightened and they hurriedly followed.
Worried that Ma Jian was too slow and would delay their rescue of Lin Qingxue, Lou Chongxiao used the Seven-Step Lock to tie Ma Jian to his body.
"Over here, everyone watch your step. That thing was able to kidnap Seventh Senior Sister right in front of us without making a sound. It must know how to burrow underground."
Upon hearing this, Ma Jian quickly activated the location function on his supernatural power, since he didn't have a storage ring like theirs.
If he gets captured and there's no time to access his location, where will Bai Qiang go to rescue him?
Following the location indicated by the storage ring, the group ran wildly down the cliff.
That thing must have known that this place was off-limits to flying, which is why it was able to kidnap people so brazenly. I wonder how Seventh Senior Sister is doing?
Gao Huohuo and the others did not dare to rush through the Divine Pass, for fear that the thing would harm their seventh senior sister.
Finally, Seventh Senior Sister's location stopped moving; it seemed she had reached that thing's lair.
At this moment, in the deathly silence, Lin Qingxue slowly and quietly opened her eyes.
A trace of fear still lingered in his eyes as he cautiously surveyed the dim and mysterious surroundings.
By the dim light, she could roughly make out that this was a cave dug out from the ground, and the smell of damp earth mixed with the smell of decay wafted towards her.
She was filled with doubt, unable to figure out what kind of monster had captured her.
Memories flooded back; she was following closely behind her senior brothers and sisters, eagerly reaching out to pick the spiritual fruit.
Unexpectedly, a sudden change occurred, and in an instant, I felt my foot slip.
Immediately afterwards, it felt as if her ankle was being pulled by a brute force, and something slippery, cold, and incredibly tough instantly wrapped around her foot.
Without allowing her to resist, they dragged her straight into the dark depths of the earth like a dead object.
When she suddenly came to her senses and realized that she had been captured, she was about to open her mouth to call for help, but to her horror, she found that her throat was blocked and she could not make a sound.
Left with no other choice, he could only pretend to faint.
She secretly slipped her hand into her storage bag and tightly clutched the life-saving talisman her fifth senior brother had given her.
The touch of the talisman felt like a shot of adrenaline, giving her confidence that her junior sister and the others would not abandon her and would come to her rescue at lightning speed.
Lin Qingxue was still cautiously looking around when she suddenly spotted a pair of blood-red eyes, as if burning with ghostly fire, hidden in the darkness, staring intently at her.
The fierce and menacing aura that hit her so hard that she almost screamed out of control.
She quickly closed her lips tightly, bit her tongue hard, and used the pain to calm herself down before mustering the courage to continue observing.
The beast was enormous, its body covered in a thick layer of rough skin, like an indestructible suit of armor.
Two thick, sharp horns on its head gleamed with a cold light, seemingly capable of easily piercing through metal and stone;
The muscles in its four legs were taut and exceptionally thick, likely the result of years of running and chasing prey underground.
Strangely, it was completely bare behind it, without a tail.
At this moment, it crouched in place, breathing heavily, as if waiting for something, and the oppressive feeling emanating from its body became increasingly intense.
