Chapter 456 - 456 Things Are Bad
456 Things Are Bad
Jiang Ming had chosen to go deep alone. However, soon, many people came in from behind. The leader was the Holy Son Gu Chi.
This made Jiang Ming’s lips twitch.
Jiang Ming did not know what these people’s purpose was, nor did he know what the purpose of these people from the Ancient Kingdom Blessed Land was, or what they wanted to obtain.
However, the black sword had some guesses.
“These guys are probably looking for an opportunity to take control of this ghostly mystic realm. Firstly, ghostly mystic realms have their own laws. Once one can control them, it will be a huge boost to one’s strength. Most importantly, if Gu Chi wants to secure his position as the top Holy Son and become a Holy Lord, he will need to increase his stakes. It is difficult to control other mystic realms. However, it is easy to control a ghostly mystic realm.
“Secondly, Gu Chi and the others’ goal is very likely to reach into the Feather Kingdom. No one knows what the situation outside the Feather Kingdom is like. It might be very chaotic. Although the Ancient Kingdom Blessed Land is high and mighty in the eyes of the people of the Feather Kingdom, no one knows what position it has in the outside world.
“Once they can extend their hands into the Feather Kingdom and continuously infiltrate all aspects of the Feather Kingdom, they will indirectly control the entire Feather Kingdom. This will be of great benefit to Gu Chi in the future.”
It had to be said that the black sword was indeed a being that had survived from countless eras ago. Even though it had been asleep for many years, its horizons and knowledge were still not something that ordinary people could compare to.
Jiang Ming agreed with the black sword and said in a deep voice, “In that case, let them be, as long as they don’t touch the devil fire.”
However, this was very difficult.
Once these people realized that the devil fire was not affected by the laws, they would definitely try to get their hands on the devil fire.
After all, the people of these sects were extremely ambitious. They were very likely to do it for their own selfish desires. In their eyes, this mystic realm was destined to be theirs.
Who would be willing to share their things with others?
Jiang Ming took a deep breath. He knew that his enemies were not just the laws and the traps here.
Gu Chi and his fellow sect members were his enemies too.
Therefore, Jiang Ming gave Wu Hen and Ying Sha a look, hinting to them that once any unrest broke out, they must remember to choose to retreat at the first moment. At the very least, they had to protect themselves. Without them, he could retreat more easily.
Wu Hen and Ying Sha received this hint and nodded.
Even Wu Hen would not be too stubborn on this matter. After all, although their strength wasn’t bad, they still couldn’t withstand a single blow from the Ancient Kingdom Blessed Land.
Jiang Ming was fine alone. He could retreat if he wanted to.
However, if Wu Hen was too stubborn, not only would he not be able to help Jiang Ming, but he would also be a burden to Jiang Ming.
At this moment, Gu Chi said, “Ning Caichen, I’m a little worried about you. So, I still plan to go with you.”
It was not that he did not want to take the other path; it was because of Rao Wuqing’s words.
“The Flowerfruit Mountain is too mysterious, and this kid knows too many things. It’s very likely that he lied. For example, we don’t know what those ancient words mean.”
It had to be said that this Rao Wuqing was indeed worthy of being able to accompany the previous generation’s top Holy Son. He was very meticulous.
“Your actions really make me admire you greatly. As expected of a Holy Son!”
Jiang Ming flattered him while Gu Chi kept speaking modestly. However, both of them had their own agendas and naturally understood that the other party was definitely not on their side.
Soon, the group went deeper. This time, some monsters appeared. However, they were quickly dealt with by Rao Wuqing. He knew very well that he could not let Jiang Ming continue to show off. Otherwise, everyone would stand on Jiang Ming’s side.
In addition, if he displayed his power appropriately, he would be able to intimidate everyone, including Ning Caichen.
Right at this moment, a sound that sounded like a beating heart rang out, causing everyone to be unable to help but be shocked!
What happened?
Some people revealed suspicious expressions, not quite understanding what had happened at this critical moment.
In the next instant, a cultivator was directly taken away by a bloody mouth and turned into a cloud of blood!
“Aaaaaaah!”
A few cultivators immediately let out miserable screams. They wanted to escape. However, they were quickly taken away by another bloody mouth and eaten.
The entire place was deathly silent.
At this moment, these cultivators could not remain calm.
It was also at this moment that a powerful force spread out.
Explosions rang out. Many cultivators were killed. Jiang Ming could clearly sense that the power of the laws in this ghostly mystic realm was constantly increasing.
“Damn it! Where did this monster come from?”
Gu Chi could not help but grit his teeth.
He did not care about their lives. However, he could not ignore the fact that the power of the laws was increasing. Once it reached a terrifying level, they would all die here.
The more they thought of this, the more they could not help but gasp.
Jiang Ming was naturally very worried about this. His brain was working crazily to find a suitable solution. However, he was stunned the next moment.
“It’s an illusion!”
Jiang Ming only realized this after the black sword’s reminder. He immediately woke up and found that there was no blood at all. However, some people still died.
They died from killing each other!
Those cultivators wanted to resist the so-called monster. Thus, they attacked.
However, their wounds were actually from other cultivators!
