… …
The Heartless Sea had become an ocean of chaotic battles. The sounds of fighting were so loud that even Qin Fang and the others, who had gone far away, could still faintly hear it … If they had good eyesight, they could even see those supreme experts fighting fiercely in mid-air.
"Uncle Yun, is that Wild Secret Realm very far away?"
Of course, Qin Fang did not care about that now. That level of fierce battle was not something he could get involved in now. It was better to be safe. At least now they were much safer. Out of boredom, Qin Fang asked Yun Lan beside him.
Even though Yun Lan still looks like a middle-aged man, he is actually not young. He is at least 60 or 70 years old. He is of the same generation as Taoist Qing Xu so naturally Qin Fang has to call him martial uncle.
"It's not too far away. According to the current speed, it'll take about 10 minutes …"
Yun Lan's face was very stiff, as if he had not smiled for a long time. He just replied mechanically.
Perhaps because he had basically lived in the Kunlun Sect all his life, Yun Lan's concept of time was still the old-school calculation of "30 minutes", "10 minutes", "2 hours".
Regarding this, Qin Fang had already gotten used to it … It was enough for him to understand it in his heart.
"In the time it takes to brew a cup of tea …"
Qin Fang calculated the distance silently and had a rough idea in his mind …
At present, the team was moving very fast. Basically, they could walk one kilometer per minute. According to the calculation of 15 minutes, the distance between the Wild Mysterious Realm and the Heartless Sea was about 15 to 20 kilometers.
In such a vast wasteland, this distance wasn't particularly far. If they were on a flat terrain, they would be able to see it at a glance … Of course, it wasn't very close either. Because they had stepped into a hilly area filled with potholes, their field of vision was at least a few kilometers in the vicinity.
Looking back at the direction of the Heartless Sea, if Qin Fang did not guess wrong, that should be where the Wild Secret Realm was … It was relatively safe in this way.
"Stop!
Stop … "
Qin Fang casually glanced at the front. Immediately, his gaze froze and he cried out in surprise.
"What's wrong?"
The scale of this team was not large, and Qin Fang, as the champion of the Grand Competition of the Five Sects, not only the Kunlun disciples would give him face, even the disciples of the other four sects would also give him face. Even the Supreme Master leading the team was the same. At this time, he stopped the team and looked at Qin Fang strangely.
"We've been ambushed, people from the evil sects …"
Qin Fang pointed at the relatively narrow slope in front of them and said with a slightly ugly expression.
"Hm?"
Sovereign Wang was also slightly taken aback as he looked in that direction. "You guys stop here, I'll go over and take a look …"
"I can feel it. The other party also has a Supreme-Being expert. Supreme-Being, be careful!"
At this moment, Qin Fang could not help but remind him. He was afraid that Venerable Liu would be too careless. If he were to be plotted against, none of them would be able to survive … After all, none of them were able to contend against a Supreme-Being expert.
Even if they had three half-step supreme experts, it would still be useless …
"Mm!"
Venerable Wang looked deeply at Qin Fang, then snorted and immediately headed towards the slope in the distance … It was just as Qin Fang had said, if there was an ambush here, the narrow slope on both sides would definitely be the best spot.
As for Qin Fang and the others, they naturally stayed where they were and waited while remaining vigilant …
Once the people from the evil sects showed themselves, they would immediately fight!
Boom!
Perhaps Qin Fang's words were effective, because before Venerable Wang even reached the slope, he swung his palm and viciously attacked the huge rock there … With a loud bang, the huge rock that weighed at least ten thousand kilograms was forcefully pushed away by Venerable Liu's palm.
Rumble!
The huge rock immediately rushed down from the top of the slope, making a deafening sound. The entire ground was violently shaking …
"Ahhhhh!"
Of course, this was not completely without benefits. When the boulder rolled over, even a master of the Great Grandmaster Realm would not be able to withstand the crushing force of such a heavy boulder. A series of screams immediately came from the other side of the slope.
As expected …
It was just as Qin Fang had said, there were indeed experts from the evil sects hiding there!
Whoosh whoosh whoosh ~
Not only that, when the huge rock rushed down, a group of experts rushed out from behind it. One of them even leaped into the air and hovered a dozen meters above the ground.
This person had definitely reached the Supreme realm and his cultivation was incomparably terrifying. Otherwise, Yun Lan, Shadow, and the other half-step supreme experts would not have been so shocked.
The remaining evil sect experts who were lucky enough to survive all popped their heads out from the top of the slope. In the blink of an eye, there were close to twenty of them …
Although their numbers were less than half of Qin Fang's side, there were still many experts … Not only were they all experts above the Great Grandmaster realm, even the weakest of them was at the mid-stage of the Great Grandmaster realm.
Based on their strength, they had an absolute advantage over Qin Fang's side …
"Shi Songyun …"
Although Venerable Wang's attack had succeeded and killed many evil sect experts, when he saw the Great Grandmaster hovering in the air, his expression instantly turned abnormally ugly. Even his voice was trembling when he spoke.
This was because the Great Grandmaster who had appeared was the Evil Emperor Shi Wanxie's eldest disciple, Shi Songyun, who had chased after Chu Feiyun for thousands of miles … He was an absolute expert who had long reached the peak of the mid-stage of the Great Grandmaster realm.
It could be said that in the current martial arts world of Long Province, Shi Songyun's strength could definitely be ranked in the top ten … or even the top five.
Among the evil sect and the five great sects, aside from the Evil Emperor and the Evil Emperor, the only other Great Grandmasters who could fight against Shi Songyun were the head of the Shaolin Temple's Dharma Hall, Zen Master Kong Zhi, the Tantric Sect's Dharma King Luosang, and the nameless monk from Dali's Heavenly Dragon Temple.
These were all old seniors who had been famous in the martial arts world for a long time. They had been stuck at the peak of the mid-stage of the Great Grandmaster realm for a long time, and there were even rumors that they had long since broken through to the late-stage of the Great Grandmaster realm. Their cultivations were no weaker than the 'Four Emperors', but no one could prove it.
It could not be helped. These four were monks who did not care for fame and fortune. They did not care about rankings and had not fought for many years …
However, there was one thing that was certain. Although Shi Songyun was abnormal, it was not very likely that he would be able to kill these three …
The problem was that although Sir Wang was a famous figure in the martial arts world and had long since stepped into the Great Grandmaster realm, he was only at the early stage of the Great Grandmaster realm. He was much weaker than the Sect Masters of the five great sects, or else he would not have been sent to escort Qin Fang and the other disciples who had been shortlisted.
However, the evil sect had sent Shi Songyun, the strongest person under the Evil Emperor, to deal with him. It would be strange if Sir Wang had a good expression …
"Wang Lin, as long as you retreat now, I won't make it difficult for you …"
Shi Songyun seemed to have noticed the difficulty that Wang zun-zhe was in as he stood proudly in the air. Not even the slightest bit of aura leaked from his body. He merely hugged his sword with both hands as he spoke in an incomparably calm tone …
At this moment, Sir Wang was very conflicted.
With his strength, he had no chance of winning against Shi Songyun. If he fought against Shi Songyun by force, not only would he be injured, there was also the danger of dying … Now that Shi Songyun was willing to let him live, he was truly moved.
Everyone was afraid of death, and the stronger one was and the older one was, the stronger this thought would be. Sir Wang was like this.
However, if he left just like this, it would be very difficult for him to continue living in the martial arts world … The five great sects would definitely not forgive him. They might even join forces to destroy him and the sect behind him that was not very big.
Everyone knew very well that while Evil Sect had come with a menacing aura, both sides might suffer heavy losses in the battle against the five great sects, but they would definitely be able to control their losses to a certain extent. It was impossible for either side to be wiped out.
The thirty disciples of the five great sects who had been shortlisted were the future hope of the five great sects. Once he abandoned them and ran away, they would all fall into the evil sect's hands. Not many of them would be able to survive …
When Sir Wang thought about the fury of the five great sects, even though he was a Great Grandmaster, he still felt a chill run down his spine …
"I'm sorry, but I'm only doing what I'm told …"
Sir Wang was afraid of death, very afraid of death. However, now that things had come to a head, he could not only care about himself … If he fought now, he might be injured or even killed in battle, but the five great sects would definitely remember his kindness and give an explanation to his sect and clan's descendants.
On the other hand, it was a completely different story …
He might be able to survive for the time being, but he would have to face the joint pursuit of the five great sects. His sect would also be annihilated, and his clan would also be completely shattered … Then, how could an old man like him survive?
After much consideration, Sir Wang gritted his teeth and said.
Buzz ~ ~ ~
Although he knew that he was no match for Shi Songyun, he still activated the Earth Qi in his body and activated his Earth Qi Domain. He was ready to fight … He did not want to kill or injure Shi Songyun. All he wanted was to stall him.
The five great sects would naturally make arrangements for the rest …
Moreover, he knew that the Insane Emperor, Chu Kuangren, who had been in hiding all this while, was at the entrance of the Wild Barren Secret Realm not far from here … As long as he caused a commotion here, this Four Emperors, one of the strongest cultivators on Earth, would definitely intervene!
Of course, the Insane Emperor would not intervene to protect him, but to protect the younger disciples of the five great sects …
