Chapter 1636 - Luring a snake out of its cave (2)
In just ten short breaths of time, four figures had already gathered outside the entrance of the arched cave on the east side of the Holy Spirit Castle.
They were the four powerhouses that were guarding this castle. They were respectively from the Eastern Emperor Region and the Western Emperor Region. Each of these two regions had twenty-six Death Spirits and twenty-five Death Spirits.
One of the powerhouses at the 26th step in the Western Region was called Gu Rui, and he had been the general director of the Holy Spirit Castle for many years. As for the powerhouse at the 25th step in the Western Region, his name was Yuan Chi. As for the two level 26 and 25 death spirits from the Eastern Emperor Region, they were called Jia Sheng and Wan Zheng respectively.
Both Yuan Chi and Gu Rui had been in charge of the castle for many years.
On the other hand, Jia Sheng and Wan Zheng came to the Western Region two years ago when the Four Great Alliance came. Three months ago, after the departure of the elder, Hua Yu took their places in the Holy Spirit Castle.
The four of them knew very well what the next mission would be.
However, they did not have high expectations for the prince of the Eastern Emperor Region, Nine Spirits, to appear in the Evergreen Mountain Range again. After all, those nine spirits had already been missing for two whole years, who knew if they were still alive. Even if they were alive, they probably wouldn't appear for a short period of time.
The reason why he was still guarding this place was that he had no intention to continue chatting.
However, what they didn't expect was that in the short span of three months since the elders from the Eastern Emperor Region and the Western Emperor Region had left, that Nine Spirits fellow had appeared.
The moment they received the news, the four of them were wild with joy.
They looked at each other and immediately began to move. Among them, the two powerhouses of the 25th step, Yuan Chi and Wan Zheng, without hesitation soared into the sky, flying east like lightning. The two powerhouses of the 25th step, Gu Rui and Jia Sheng, flashed and disappeared from where they stood.
After waiting in the "Holy Spirit Castle" for almost two years, the thoughts of the elders from the two empires, such as Wu Yu, had greatly changed.
Before leaving the castle, they had warned Gu Rui, Jia Sheng, and the others to capture the Nine Spirits without any hesitation.
So when he went to the east with ten thousand battles, he captured the nine spirits.
After all, two years ago, Jiu Ling was said to be only at the fourteenth step. No matter how strong she is now, she shouldn't be a match for a powerhouse of the 25th step. Furthermore, she is also a companion of two powerhouses of the 25th step.
Even if she was lucky enough to avoid Yuan Chi and Wan Zheng at the moment, there were still Gu Rui and Jia Sheng, the two powerhouses of the 26th step, guarding the entrance of the castle. By now, the other three entrances to the castle had been completely closed, and there were many undead guarding them. The eastern entrance was the only entrance.
If the nine spirits wanted to enter the castle, they had to pass through the east entrance.
With Nine Souls' strength, it was impossible for her to break through Gu Ruoyun's defenses. If the Nine Spirits' target this time wasn't the "Holy Spirit Castle", then so be it. Unlike last time, they had made preparations long ago. Since the nine spirits had appeared, they could always find traces of her presence.
"Whooosh."
At this time, several hundred miles above the river in the west of Chao Yang City, the black mist surrounding Nine Spirits' body quickly converged. As Pang Shuo's body shrunk, he swooped down from the sky. When her body became small and exquisite, she had already landed on the shoulder of the black figure by the river.
"Big brother, can you really draw the undead spirits from the castle over like this?" Jiu Ling was lacking in confidence.
"It's indeed impossible to lure all four of them out."
The black figure was naturally Tang Huan, and said with a slight smile, "However, one or two people shouldn't have any problems … Don't worry, we'll wait here for now. " With that, the "Myriad Sword Heavenly Diagram" appeared, and the painting scroll extended toward the nine spirits and sucked them in.
After a moment, using the "Heavenly Invisibility" ability, Tang Huan's figure disappeared from the riverbank.
"Whoosh!" "Whiz!"
Yuan Chi and Wan Zheng were like two black flowing lights, quickly crossing the sky, their Perception Ability had already risen to the extreme.
Suddenly, the two of them exclaimed in a low tone almost at the same time. Their figures paused in the air, and their four gazes landed on the riverbank below them. A strange look flashed across their eyes. Soon after, they exchanged glances, then simultaneously dove down from the sky, landing gently on the riverbank.
"The remnant aura is so majestic, it must be those nine spirits."
Yuan Chi frowned, his voice slightly shrill.
"This is indeed the aura of nine spirits!" Wan Zheng said in a low voice. He came from the Eastern Region, and had personally felt the auras of the nine spirits back in Dongming City.
"That's good."
A hint of joy appeared on Yuan Chi's face, before he asked doubtfully, "However, her aura suddenly disappeared here. I wonder why?"
"Could he have dived into the river?"
"..."
"The two of them are at the 25th step. It looks like the two at the 26th step are still guarding the 'Holy Spirit Castle'."
Ten kilometers away, Tang Huan's figure was hidden in the void.
Although Yuan Chi and Wan Zang did not sense Tang Huan's existence, Tang Huan had actually seen their figures flying above the river.
With just a thought, Tang Huan unleashed her "Void Evasion".
At the moment, Tang Huan did not hold back, he had to rush to the castle as fast as she could before the two level 25 undead warriors could react.
To Tang Huan, travelling thousands of kilometers through space while using her full strength was merely a matter of the blink of an eye.
After a while, Tang Huan saw the "Holy Spirit Castle" with his own eyes.
The two Level 26 Death Souls, whether they were guarding inside or hiding outside was unknown to Tang Huan, and he did not need to know. After quickly circling around the "Holy Spirit Castle", Tang Huan stopped outside the closed arched entrance at the west side of the castle.
Three of the four entrances to the castle had been sealed off, leaving only the eastern entrance.
Unfortunately, if Tang Huan wanted to enter the castle, she basically didn't need to go through the entrance. In the blink of an eye, Tang Huan had already revealed his figure. Boundless and boundless immortal spirit energy, like an ocean, roared out from within his body, and then, under Tang Huan's deliberate activation, he swept towards the east like a hurricane.
"The will of a Immortal!" "What a dense will of Immortal spirit!"
"An immortal treasure actually appeared in the west side of the castle?"
Outside the eastern entrance of the castle, two black shadows suddenly appeared. They were the two powerhouses of the 26th step, Gu Rui from the Western Emperor Region and Jia Sheng from the Eastern Emperor Region.
The two of them looked at each other with eyes full of shock.
But soon after, the greed in their eyes uncontrollably surfaced.
The depths of the Evergreen Mountains were already an extremely mysterious region. It wasn't impossible for an Immortal treasure to suddenly appear! After a short moment, Gu Rui and Armored Victory could no longer suppress the impulse in their hearts. They both rushed up to the sky towards the west side of the castle, using their full speed … …
