Chapter 257: A Hairs Breadth (First Update)

  He Xiang's face was gloomy, but in fact, his mood wasn't as bad as he seemed. The continuous gathering of outsiders also allowed the big shots of various forces in Nan Sheng Town to witness the strength of the outer hall with their own eyes.

  For a time, everyone was in danger.

  In this tense atmosphere, the alliance reached by the big powers behind the scenes collapsed one after another. They all chose to surrender and He Xiang soon got what he wanted.

  Now, as long as he can catch those troublemakers, he will have achieved a great success. Looking at the cultivators covering the sky above Nansheng Town, He Xiang's heart cleared up. The outer sect cultivators now number a terrifying three thousand people, and Nansheng Town is originally small. Three thousand cultivators flying in the air are like dark clouds. In his opinion, such a huge force is enough to sweep across Xiaoshan Boundary. If it weren't for Laozu's own strategy of containment, he would have suggested that the entire Xiaoshan Boundary be included in the Mingxiao Sect's pocket.

  But now, it doesn't make much difference, he thought with some satisfaction. He dispatched a large number of search teams to scour the area for any sign of those people, and as soon as they had a lead, they could use absolute force to tear those damned guys to pieces.

  I believe there will be news soon.

  Just then, an elder swooped down in front of him and exclaimed excitedly: "Found that gang! Two or three hundred people, to the north, about two thousand miles away from here. Our people have them under surveillance."

  He Xiang was overjoyed and said in a loud voice, "As long as we find them, they're dead for sure. Tell the scouts ahead to be vigilant and not lose their trail. Now it's our turn to take action!"

  "Haha, let them see the power of our outer hall." The elder also burst out laughing.

  "Sweep them away!" He Xiang's chest was filled with heroic passion: "Come back and celebrate with you!" This elder was another ally he had won over.

  "Haha! Wait for my good news!" The elder laughed proudly and then flew away.

  Practitioners from all over the sky began to gather quickly.

  Like Wei Ran, there is also Nian Lv who is also unhappy.

  He stepped on the lotus flower, riding the wind and walking. His original snow-white clothes were now covered in dust, and his handsome face had been blown by the wind for over ten days, looking somewhat dispirited. The curve beside him also had an unpleasant expression: "These hanging ghostly shoes are really annoying! They have to greet us every day, but no matter how many times they count, it's still just a few old faces, no freshness at all. However, they're not easy either!"

  The last sentence was full of emotion.

  He turned his face and shouted at the cultivators beside him: "All of you, get your spirits up! Whoever doesn't listen, don't blame my flying sword for not recognizing people."

  By his side, apart from the cultivators under him, there were nearly two hundred unfamiliar cultivators. These cultivators all looked dispirited and lacking in energy. They were all captured by them after they had spent time sweeping away two forces. The task of sweeping away was completed together with Lei Peng, Zong Ru, and this small team. Nian Lv's luck was the worst, he lost in the draw, and the most depressing task of luring the enemy also fell to him.

  These captives looked as neat as Ling Jia and the like, but except for Ling Jia, all other magical artifacts and flying swords were confiscated.

  Year Green like this, with a song repairer, wrapped around the whole two hundred names repairer, vast and powerful to the north fly go.

  In order not to lose their tracks, they also have to maintain a moderate speed. The most frustrating thing is that thinking of oneself can't participate in the upcoming war, but just keep running on the road.

  The greatest tragedy in life is this. Yan Lü was filled with grief and indignation, saying: "Slow down, slow down, don't let them lose us."

  At the foot of a mountain peak about four hundred miles away from Nansheng Town, there is an extremely hidden cave.

  "What are we waiting for? Every day stuck in this godforsaken place, when can we finally do something?" Lei Peng asked loudly.

  No one paid attention to him. Zongru was sitting in his meditation, Xieshan was closing his eyes to cultivate his spirit. The other Quwei knew their place and didn't dare interrupt, with so many big shots around, it wasn't their turn to speak.

  Ma Fan couldn't help but raise his head in frustration. Who made him the one to come up with ideas, anyway? It was really troublesome. He muttered under his breath, "Hurry up, hurry up."

  Lei Peng chuckled and said: "Little Year is probably enjoying the breeze right now."

  Others passed on a few snickers, and even Zongru, who was meditating, had a hint of a smile at the corner of his mouth.

  Since they last intercepted a small force of the enemy, they took advantage of that extremely short period of chaos and quietly reunited to lie in ambush.

  This hiding place was good for seven days. They were lucky to find a very deep cave in the mountains, and with some camouflage, it became an excellent hiding spot. Moreover, it was close to Nan Sheng Town, right under their noses, which could be considered a classic case of "hiding in plain sight".

  Xie Shan suddenly opened his eyes, and everyone else immediately looked alert. Xie Shan said softly, "It's here."

  All the cultivators immediately fell silent, and even the faint glow of the mountain cave's top was extinguished by Shan Xie's wave of his hand. The cave instantly plunged into darkness. After a while, everyone felt a series of divine senses and strange spiritual powers sweeping over their bodies.

  Everyone's heart is secretly delighted!

  This time in Nansheng Town, there were at least over 2,000 cultivators who made a move! From this, it can be seen that in order to eliminate them, the Outer Sect had indeed invested heavily.

  No one dared to move, all the signs of life on their bodies disappeared, breathing and heartbeat stopped, even body temperature dropped, they were like a pile of rocks. This hiding and scouting technique was taught by Ma Fan, who was well-versed in the art of concealment and stealth.

  The camouflage outside the cave, in order not to attract the enemy's attention, they did not use any talismans or arrays. Arrays are most suitable for camouflage, but that is only for masters, not array masters, setting up camouflage arrays, on the contrary, makes them more conspicuous.

  They just used rocks and grass to camouflage, trying to minimize human traces. They even caught a few small animals like rabbits and raised them in the cave.

  There are countless caves in this area, and Ma Fan is sure that the other party will definitely not check each cave one by one.

  A wave of exploration lasted for a whole hour, including Xie Shan, who had the highest cultivation, and he couldn't help but feel shocked by Wai Tang's power. From the divine sense and spiritual energy that swept past him, there were as many as ten cultivators of the third heaven of the Condensing Pulse Realm. He dared to confirm that in the entire Xiaoshan boundary, seven out of ten cultivators of the Condensing Pulse Realm had been caught by Wai Tang's net.

  One person with a strong pulse in the three realms is not to be feared, but if there are ten people, it becomes an extremely powerful force. If he is the commander, he will definitely arrange these ten people together. Such a powerful cultivator, once concentrated and used, has extremely terrifying power, invincible. Why would these cultivators who understand the sword intent be arranged together? He didn't understand before, but after following Xiaonan for a while and experiencing it personally, he understood the benefits of this.

  However, he now admires Ma Fan's caution. Under Ma Fan's insistence, they dug the cave extremely deep and sealed it with large boulders on top. These thick rocks, which were as much as 30 feet thick, nearly killed them at that time. The entire cave was isolated into two layers, where those small animals lived in the upper layer.

  At that time, some people grumbled about Ma's trivial matters, but now it seems that these measures saved their lives!

  Little did they know that Ma Fan was also secretly worried, if there was a slight deviation in this, then they would become fish in a barrel, not one of them could escape.

  Until all the scouts disappeared, they didn't dare move, everyone was frightened by the previous momentum.

  It wasn't until after five whole periods of time had passed that they finally recovered from their state of apparent death.

  "Good grief, this is too terrifying! There are at least two thousand people!" Lei Peng's tongue was tied and his face turned pale.

  "It's three thousand." Zongru suddenly spoke up: "There are still ten Triple Heaven."

  Everyone's face looked a bit unsightly, but Xie Shan unexpectedly took a look at Zong Ru, and was surprised by Zong Ru's keenness.

  "You really look up to us!"

  "Haha, just now I was really scared, now my whole body is still a bit soft."

  ……

  Everyone was discussing it with seven mouths and eight tongues, some were frightened afterwards, but more were excited. The outer hall mobilized so many people, which shows how much they value them. In Xiaoshan boundary, those who can do this are only their family, except for them, there is no one else. These people are mostly fugitives, like Lei Peng, such a passionate fighter, the more so, the more energetic.

  Mafan didn't go crazy like them, barely calming his heartbeat, wiping away cold sweat, having been the core for so long, but he had never encountered a situation as thrilling as this before.

  "When are we making our move?" Le Peng rubbed his hands excitedly, his eyes shining brightly as he stared at Ma Fan.

  Ma Fan barely restrained himself from killing the guy with one sword, rolled his eyes: "Don't you think you're dying fast enough? Others haven't even left yet, and you come back to kill us, none of us can escape."

  Lei Peng realized that his question was a bit provocative, especially when he saw the gaze of those around him looking at him like an idiot, and he quickly smiled awkwardly: "You see, they scared me so much that my brain is not working properly."

  "Five days." Ma Fan's calmness returned: "We only need to wait for five more days, and even if they want to turn back, it will be too late."

  "Everyone should take advantage of these five days to recharge and sharpen themselves, don't be a coward when the time comes and watch everyone else show their strength." Xie Shan said with a smile.

  In the cave, the noisy sound disappeared, and everyone suppressed the excitement in their hearts, sitting still. They were like a group of seasoned hunters making final preparations before closing the net.

  Jiang Wei took the jade slip handed over by his subordinate. He sent out his most skilled cultivator in stealth and concealment to secretly follow Wei Ran's group from a distance, finally succeeding in finding out where their lair was located.

  He swept his gaze over the jade tablet, and his body stiffened.

  Jade tablet, the peak of the mountain, a city like a turquoise sun. The sunlight is like a sharp sword, piercing through the clouds and falling on this city. The small town emits a faint golden light, like sunshine, bringing warmth to people.

  Jiang Wei's heart seemed to be suddenly grasped by an invisible hand and stopped beating in an instant.

  It wasn't until much later that he slowly came back to his senses. The desolate small city, the sparse cultivators, all the blood in his body suddenly rushed to his head, and with one glance, he saw through the weakness of the small city! Even the team escorting the prisoners had abandoned the prisoners at the camp and immediately returned.

  Insatiable greed and desire permeated every hair on his body!
