Chapter 997: Talking about Teng Lie, the Underground Lost City
"What happened to the sect? I just saw several deacons and elders flying to the sect leader's peak, and now we are summoning us..." Zou Xingyun asked while flying.
"It should be a combat mission," Shangguan Jifeng also analyzed while flying, "Long Jianqiu and Jia Guang, the two junior brothers, have a slightly lower realm, and have not received any notification."
"But, Xu Yang received the peak of Xuanjun..." Zou Xingyun said.
While speaking, the four of them had already flew to the sect leader's peak and quickly entered the hall.
Xu Yang walked into the hall and then saw dozens of senior brothers and sisters of the Emperor, each of which was at least in the late stage of King Xuan.
These senior brothers and sisters have already known Xu Yang. They are not self-reliant, but come with a smile and say hello to Xu Yang.
"The elder brother is here too!"
Someone said that, and Dugu Yun, with a pale face, slowly walked into the hall. He was still handsome, but in Xu Yang's opinion, he always felt that Dugu Yun had lost the demeanor of being calm and guiding the country.
"Senior Brother, have your body recovered?" Shangguan Jifeng asked.
"It's much better." Dugu Yun said quietly.
"Dugu Yun, you should rest for a while. You should not go to this mission. With Li Yang here, it is enough to take charge of the overall situation." Elder Liang Qiulu, who was sitting on the deputy seat, spoke.
Dugu Yun took a breath: "Elder Liangqiu, with the help of my fourth junior brother's pill, my injury is not hindered. I must participate in this mission."
Liang Qiulu was still about to speak, but suddenly, Elder Wu on the master seat said lightly: "Then let him go. Dugu Yun is a talented general, and he is more suitable than Li Yang in terms of coordination."
Xu Yang understood what Elder Wu meant that Senior Brother Dugu Yun was very charming, and he could control dozens of fellow disciples and exert his maximum combat power. Although the second Senior Brother Li Yang was not much inferior to Senior Brother Dugu Yun, he was more suitable to be an assassin walking in the dark night. He was not suitable to command a large number of subordinates.
Liang Qiulu didn't insist and quickly got to the point.
"To be honest, I didn't expect to call you again so soon," Liang Qiulu said. "This incident happened in the Western Desert. Teng Lie, who had been missing for several years, finally sent a message."
"Senior Brother Teng Lie!"
"What, it's the third senior brother. He has been missing for four or five years, right?"
"God is really open to his eyes. Senior Brother Teng Lie has finally heard from him."
In the hall, dozens of disciples who ranked among the top in the imperial sect were both surprised and happy.
Dugu Yun frowned slightly: "Elder Liangqiu, what message did Junior Brother Teng Lie send? Does it explain what happened to him over the years?"
"Teng Lie sent a short message. He only said that an underground maze trapped in the Western Desert was able to escape recently." Elder Liangqiu said, "According to Teng Lie, that underground maze is full of treasures everywhere, but the danger is also very high. He is alone in many places and cannot be heard. Therefore, he suggested that the sect send masters immediately to the underground maze and sweep the treasures inside."
"Why didn't Senior Brother Teng Lie come back? It should only take about a month to return to Middle Earth by taking the Domain Gate of the Western Desert." Shangguan Jifeng asked strangely.
"According to him, in the underground maze, he also encountered an expedition team, composed of disciples from the Star Courtyard and Kunlun Immortal Sect! Although this team does not have masters at the level of the Invincible Xuan King, there are several peak Xuan Kings. With the joint efforts, Teng Lie could only retreat, and as a result, he fell into the illusion in the maze with this team, and he was trapped for several years."
"Junior Brother Teng Lie is careless. He should have sent a distress signal from the Heavenly Eye Talisman at the beginning so we can go and support him." Dugu Yun said.
"Otherwise, there will be no way to send messages outside in the underground mysteries," Liang Qiulu said. "Teng Lie was able to control the Sky Eye Talisman to send messages after he came out accidentally. However, the Star Courtyard, which was trapped with him, and the Kunlun Immortal Sect exploration team also sent a message of help to their respective sects. The soldiers are very fast, and whoever arrives at the battlefield first will get the lead."
Elder Wu continued: "In addition, there is not good news. Outside the mystical city, Teng Lie also found traces of disciples of the Sword House... This mystical city treasure is probably difficult to cover, and it is very likely to evolve into an early battle between top disciples of the top ten sects!"
"Did you warm up in advance in the Immortal Sect Conference?" Li Yang's eyes burst out with excitement. This assassination master, known as the ghost slash, had his fighting spirit ignited.
"I understand, let's set off now," Dugu Yun said in a deep voice, "My brothers, for the sake of the Emperor Sect, we must win this time!"
"We didn't lose last time... Don't worry, senior brother, with junior brother and you, our Emperor Sect will never be defeated." Zou Xingyun said with a smile.
Dugu Yunmeifeng frowned slightly: "Junior brother, your realm is too low after all, and it is not suitable for such a battle of top inner disciples. This time... you should not go."
"Huh?" Xu Yang was slightly surprised.
"Brother, junior brother is very powerful and has many methods, so he will definitely play a great role." Zou Xingyun said.
Liang Qiulu said: "Dugu Yun, this time, recruited Xu Yang because he had extremely high achievements in formation. In the underground maze, in addition to fighting with various talents, he also needed to break the maze of the earth veins in order to find treasures. Therefore, Xu Yang's role is irreplaceable."
"Well... OK!" Dugu Yun said lightly, "My junior brother, please pay attention to protecting yourself. Dear classmates, prepare for one stick of incense, gather in front of the secret gate, and go to the Jietian Peak Domain Gate!"
A group of people agreed and dispersed one after another.
"How is Dugu Yun's situation?" Liang Qiulu said slowly after everyone left.
"It's okay... I haven't been destroyed by failure." Elder Wu said.
"That's good, I'm worried that he can't stand the blow." Liang Qiulu breathed a sigh of relief.
It was said that it was a stick of incense to prepare, but in fact, many people's belongings were carried with them in the storage ring and did not need to return. Therefore, most people went directly to the gate of the Secret Realm of the Emperor Sect to wait.
Soon, Dugu Yun led everyone to open the gate of the secret realm, came to the domain gate on Jietian Peak, and directly chose to teleport to the Western Desert.
Central China is divided into five places. Except for the densely populated Middle Earth, the other four major areas are remote and desolate. From their names, you can see one or two: the East Wild, the West Wild, the South Wild, and the North Wild.
The western desert has a dry climate and shortage of water sources. People here often have slightly dark skin, which is slightly different from the fairness of the Middle-earth people.
There are three thousand countries in the western desert, half of which are controlled by Kunlun Immortal Sect, and the other half are divided up by the sects in the southwest and northwest directions such as Xingchen Courtyard, Bailian Mansion, Ancient Zen Courtyard, Jian Mansion, etc. (To be continued...)
