Chapter 71 Hand of Death
After three hours of meditation, everyone's fatigue was gone, and the consumed soul power was also fully recovered.
After seeing that everyone had rested, Wang Yan said: "Everyone change your clothes, Supervisor Shrek is ready to take action."
With that said, a group of fifteen of them set off towards the Mingdou Mountains.
As everyone moved forward, the surrounding trees became thicker and thicker.
"Stop!" Wang Yan suddenly said, and then walked to a broken tree trunk, which had been hollowed out.
"This is the Wenlan tree." Wang Yan said after observing for a while: "The heart of the Wenlan tree is dark blue. The heart of the Wenlan tree has been hollowed out. Judging from the traces, it should be what humans think. Because, it’s difficult for a soul beast to leave such traces.”
"What do you mean?" Ma Xiaotao's tone was a little annoying. The disciples in the inner courtyard always spoke in terms of their cultivation. Although Wang Yan was a teacher, he only had the cultivation of a Soul King, so it was obviously difficult for Ma Xiaotao to respect him.
"The tree heart of Wen Lanshu not only has an auxiliary function for soul masters with cold and cold attributes, but also enhances the tolerance of the internal organs to the power of cold and cold souls.
For evil soul masters whose martial soul attributes are mostly cold, Wen Lanshu Xin is a rare treasure. "Wang Yan didn't seem to hear the impatience in Ma Xiaotao's tone, and introduced carefully.
"Teacher Wang, you mean that the Death Hand's lair is near here." Dai Yueheng said after listening, and all the disciples present understood what Wang Yan meant.
"Yes, even if it's not near here, it's not too far away." Wang Yan nodded. "Trouble, everyone spread out and search the surrounding traces carefully to see if there are any clues."
"Okay." Everyone responded, spread out, and carefully searched the surroundings.
Wang Yan watched the crowd disperse and couldn't help but think of Huo Yuhao who was far away in the horizon. If Huo Yuhao were here, they wouldn't be in such trouble.
Huo Yuhao launched a mental detection and had a clear view of the surrounding situation.
Fortunately, the search didn't last long, and from time to time, students found some clues, such as trampled branches and shallow footprints left on the ground. Rags left on tree branches, a little blood stains left on thorn spikes, etc.
Following the clues, the trees around them became more and more detailed. As everyone moved forward, the traces became more and more obvious, and everyone's speed became faster and faster.
But even so, it still took everyone more than an hour to get out of the woods.
They came out of the forest and hid behind a large stone that was as tall as a man. Following the scattered sight lines on the ground, they could see from the sparse branches that there was a raised hillside about 200 to 300 meters away from the crowd.
The footprints on the ground also disappeared at the foot of the hillside.
"That should be it." Wang Yan took out the supervisor's ring and said, "Change your clothes. Supervisor Shrek is ready to take action."
Everyone also took out the Overseer's Ring and poured soul power into the ring. A strange green light suddenly flashed across the green ring surface.
Green light flashed suddenly, and a set of inner armor made of an unknown material instantly covered the whole body. If you look carefully, you can see that there is a layer of fine scales on the surface of the inner armor.
After the scales covered his whole body, he was followed by a dark green outfit, then a dark green mask covering his cheeks, and finally a dark green cloak covering his entire body.
After everyone finished dressing, Wang Yan said in a deep voice: "Get ready to go. Xiao Tao, it's you who will lead the battle. You lead the formal team up, and I will be responsible for commanding the reserve team at the rear."
"Okay, no problem."
Ma Xiaotao nodded in response, then ducked slightly and jumped out. Dai Yueheng and Chen Zifeng were on both sides of her and followed him out. The other four inner courtyard disciples also moved quickly.
Maintaining a strict formation, they followed.
After waiting for a while after they left, Wang Yan raised his hand and followed with the reserve team.
On the reserve side, Ning Tian, as the auxiliary soul master, was naturally protected by everyone. Beibei and Xu Sanshi, who had the highest cultivation level, were one behind the other, followed by He Caitou and Jiang Nannan, and the remaining Wang Dong and Wu Feng stood on both sides of Ning Tian.
Ma Xiaotao and the others were very fast. By the time the reserve team arrived at the foot of the hillside, the members of the official team had already disappeared.
The eight people rushed to the cave entrance covered by many vine curtains at the foot of the hillside. In front of the cave entrance were the corpses of six bandits. The black medals on the chests of the corpses were clearly the exclusive badges of the Hand of Death.
Before a few people had time to examine the body, a dull explosion suddenly came from the cave, followed immediately by noisy shouts and curses, as well as a muffled sound and strong soul power fluctuations.
Wang Yan glanced at the dark entrance of the cave and said in a deep voice: "Let's go in, and Ning Tian will use his soul skills."
"Okay, the Seven Treasures are famous. One is: Speed, and the third is: Control." Ning Tian finished his words. The colorful Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda in his hand shone with dazzling light. The first and third soul rings on the soles of his feet lit up at the same time, invisible. Waves of waves swept through everyone on the field.
Everyone who received the buff's blessing entered the cave under the leadership of Wang Yan.
As soon as they entered the cave, the strong smell of blood hit their faces, and they endured the discomfort and continued to move deeper.
Snap! Snap! Snap!
The sound of dripping water rang in their ears, and the group walked slowly along the cave wall.
call out!
Water droplets streaked through the humid air, and accidentally landed on Jiang Nannan's hood.
She reached out and touched it, and her hand felt sticky.
This is blood!
What was dripping was not water, but blood. Thoughts flooded into Jiang Nannan's mind, and she couldn't help but look up.
"Ah -" screams sounded, and Jiang Nannan's body couldn't stop shaking when she saw the scene above her.
Everyone in the team was attracted by Jiang Nannan's scream and followed her line of sight. At this sight, everyone's faces instantly turned pale.
On both sides of the cave walls, there were more than a dozen human skins hanging, and there was even a baby's body that had been impaled and hung on a stalagmite.
The blood that fell on Jiang Nannan's hood earlier came from the corpse.
"Bastard." Everyone couldn't stop yelling when they saw the scene above them. These damn bandits didn't even spare a newborn baby.
"Calm down and move on." Wang Yan shouted lowly, not because he was indifferent, but mainly because he had seen such a scene many times. Now is not the time to be angry, the most important thing is to eliminate the bandits as soon as possible.
Continuing forward, the corpses of bandits finally began to appear on the ground. As the number of corpses increased, the sound of fighting in their ears became more and more intense.
boom!
Suddenly there was an explosion, very close to them.
Hearing the sound, everyone hurried forward, and the scenery in front of them suddenly opened up, and they also saw a massacre, and various brilliant soul skills flashed.
Every flash of soul skill will take away the lives of a group of thieves. The seven people who are Shrek's official team members obviously cooperate with each other in a tacit understanding.
