Chapter 431: Ice Sparrow’s Sneak Attack
Chapter 431: Ice Sparrow’s Sneak Attack
Ling Xiao walked at the back of the team, which made it easier to observe the situation of the entire team.
Fairy Linglong walked in the middle of the team, and the stern-faced martial artist was always guarding beside her.
Not only that, but this woman was surrounded by martial artists above Rank Four Transcendent Realm. It could be said that she was tightly protected like a myriad of stars surrounding the moon.
Fairy Linglong didnt seem to feel that this was improper.
In the Sand Family Fortress, she had always been the aloof and remote queen. The matter of these people willing to protect and follow her was very normal in her eyes.
She had good looks. Her very frown and every smile could make people men go crazy;
She had an unusual technique that could easily heal the injuries of martial artists, which made martial artists admire her even more;
She, furthermore, had strength. Her cultivation base had already reached Peak Rank Four Transcendent Realm. Although it was not considered too strong, it was still enough to be a giant among dwarfs in Sand Family Fortress.
In addition, she also possessed an incomparably powerful martial soul. She could even defeat Rank Five Transcendent Realm martial artists easily using this martial soul.
All of these made her feel that she was superior, and others should kneel and lick her feet.
But that hateful kid surnamed Ling actually dared to refuse her request in front of so many people.
If she didnt teach this kid a lesson, then it would truly be hard for her to swallow this grievance in her heart.
Having pride in itself was not wrong, but thinking all men in the world should kneel and lick her feet, that was troublesome.
Running into Ling Xiao was truly her bad luck.
The stern-faced martial artist seemed to be discussing something with Fairy Linglong, but their voices were very low, moreover, they had intentionally used the true essence barrier to block the sounds. Therefore, unless Ling Xiao revealed his true strength, he truly couldnt hear what they were saying.
Leng Mian, what do you think?
That kid is indeed a bit tricky. He actually knows formations, but it doesnt matter. His cultivation is too lacking. As long as we seize a chance, we can easily subdue him.
Its enough if you are confident, but dont be anxious to make a move first. That place we are going to this time is very likely to be the cultivation place of an ancient martial artist. There should be good things inside, but the troublesome thing is, there are formations to protect it, and this kid just happens to know formation techniques. We should let him crack the formation first.
Originally, Fairy Linglong planned to use force. She had brought so many people because she wanted to directly dig into the ancient martial artists cave-dwelling to avoid the formation.
But this approach was not only coarse, but it might also not succeed. The most troublesome thing was, they might need to use things like thunderbolt balls and so on, and once the movement was too big, it might attract powerful fierce beasts, which would be troublesome.
Therefore, after learning Ling Xiao knew formation techniques, she changed her plan.
Originally, she wanted to find a chance to kill Ling Xiao along the way, but now, it was changed to letting Ling Xiao crack the formation before killing him.
Understood!
The stern-faced martial artist also had the same thoughts. Since there was a person who knew formation techniques, why not put him to good use?
Increase your vigilance! The deeper we go, the greater the danger. Although we have taken this path more than once, it is best to not play with fire, otherwise, we might capsize in a drain, and there might be a crisis of total annihilation!
The stern-faced martial artist suddenly shouted loudly, which entered the ears of all martial artists.
Understood!
The other martial artists responded.
Although Ling Xiao didnt know the content of this stern-faced martial artist and Fairy Linglongs discussion, looking at the changes in their expressions, he could guess something in his heart.
It seems this woman truly wouldnt shed tears before seeing the coffin, shes stubbornly insisting on her own ideas! Since that is the case, I also dont need to be polite!
At the beginning, the team didnt suffer any attack. Perhaps, because the aura of the thirty martial artists was relatively strong, the lurking fierce beasts in the Crouching Dragon Mountain Range didnt attack rashly.
However, as they went deeper and deeper, powerful fierce beasts began to appear.
Some just observed, whereas others ferociously launched attacks.
This was not the first time Ling Xiao had encountered a fierce beast, but every time he saw the scene of a fierce beast fighting, he couldnt help frowning a little.
The fierce beasts had no mercy at all. They killed people completely out of instinct. They were cruel and straightforward, absolutely not sloppy.
The fierce beast that attacked the team was an Ice Sparrow.
Although it was just a rank three fierce beast, and it was not considered powerful, the issue was, it could fly!
The build of Ice Sparrow was very small, about the same size as sparrows, and it was entirely blue in color, moreover, it could release a very terrifying cold poison.
Using the high-speed flight, as long as it scratched or pecked the target, it could inject the cold poison into the opponents body.
Even a target that was several times or even dozens of times larger than its size would gradually become stiff once hit with the cold poison and eventually die because of frozen blood, becoming its food.
The Ice Sparrow was lying in ambush among the leaves.
Because it was too small, the martial artists didnt even notice its existence.
Only after it carried out a sneak attack, instantly injuring four or five martial artists, did everyone detect the danger.
Those four or five injured martial artists fell to the ground after a while, then trembled as if they were lying in the ice house without any clothes.
After noticing the Ice Sparrows attack, the martial artists began to take action in an organized manner, forming a tight defensive net.
It was a pity that the Ice Sparrow was too cunning. Upon seeing that it had no way to attack again, it disappeared into the dense forest, and the martial artists had no way to chase it.
If Ling Xiao got rid of the Refine Arrow Stone or used his Sword Controlling Technique, then he could have killed this Ice Sparrow.
However, he didnt forget Venerable Yuans teaching. After entering the depths of the Crouching Dragon Forest, he had to do his best to fight with the Refine Array Stone with him unless it was absolutely necessary.
As for the Sword Controlling Technique, it was a deadly weapon at the bottom of his box. He wouldnt use it easily.
Huh?
Ling Xiao suddenly saw Fairy Linglong taking action to help those martial artists infected with cold poison. This wasnt surprising, but the problem was, he could vaguely see a dragon shadow behind her.
Furthermore, there was also that very familiar dragon aura.
Want it?
Ling Xiao even felt that the Ancient Golden Dragon was roaring within his body.
If his guess was correct, then it was very likely that Fairy Linglong had a dragon-type martial soul, which, however, was a very rare martial soul.
Without using any medicine, Fairy Linglong easily resolved the cold poison, and those martial artists expressed their gratitude and loyalty to her. Ling Xiao was too lazy to listen to their flattering words.
After suffering the Ice Sparrows attack, the team became more cautious.
However, entering the depths of the Crouching Dragon Mountain Range, it was basically wishful thinking if you wanted to avoid fierce beasts attacks, because it was absolutely impossible. Only if you could completely restrain your aura, and completely become invisible, it might be possible.
Ling Xiao could naturally do this. His Blood Shadow Martial Soul had fused with Ancient Golden Dragon, and its ability was also absorbed by the Ancient Golden Dragon, therefore, as long as he could control the Ancient Golden Dragon, he could easily do this.
Now, although it was a bit difficult, he could do it.
However, like that, it would lose the meaning of going into the mountains to train.
