Chapter 131: Blazing Sword Sect
Seeing this, Chu Qingxuan followed without hesitation. The other disciples did not dare to be negligent and they all used their skills, their robes fluttering in the wind, like flashes of lightning, to catch up.
Among this group of people, Shangguan Jiannan and Chu Qingxuan were the strongest. They took the lead. Although the others were unwilling, they had to grit their teeth and follow closely.
The seven-man team quickly disappeared into the dense jungle.
There were thick fallen leaves under my feet, and every step was accompanied by a slight depression. The air was filled with an ancient and decadent smell that made people involuntarily slow down their breathing.
Shangguan Jiannan and others were speeding through this area where almost no one had ever set foot, and they had brought their respective lightness skills to the extreme. Their figures were seen jumping lightly between the treetops and the ground, leaving almost no trace, only a few fallen leaves that were lifted up and slowly fell.
As we go deeper, we are surrounded by endless green, as if we are in a green ocean, and our sense of direction gradually becomes blurred.
Fortunately, Shangguan Jiannan had a good memory and secretly wrote down several key marks along the way to avoid getting lost.
In this mysterious jungle, an unknown adventure quietly kicked off... After some quick observation and judgment, everyone quickly locked on a direction and stepped into the depths of the dense forest with towering ancient trees and fallen leaves covering the ground.
The forest was unusually quiet. Apart from the occasional whistling of the wind blowing through the forest, there was not even a shadow of a monster to be seen, which made Shangguan Jiannan feel suspicious.
You know, this deep old forest should be a paradise for monsters, but now it is dead silent, without even the sound of insects.
"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh", the seven people took advantage of the wind and moved flexibly among the thick ancient trees. In a blink of an eye, they had gone deep into the forest for more than an hour.
Suddenly, Shangguan Jiannan paused and revealed an unconcealable joy on his face: "Here it is!" In the bushes ahead, the leaves were scorched yellow, obviously having been burned by the high temperature, and a few hurried footprints were vaguely visible on the ground.
Seeing this, the others also stopped, showing the same excitement on their faces, and then they all rushed towards the top of the mountain.
In the woods, several figures passed by like ghosts, and the air currents they brought were hot enough to scorch the leaves, leaving behind a string of scorch marks and wisps of smoke along the way.
They were dressed in fiery red robes, which made them particularly conspicuous in the lush green jungle, like burning flames jumping among the mountains and forests.
It seemed that no monsters dared to approach this mountain range, and everyone unleashed their speed without reservation. The spiritual power in their bodies surged, emitting a powerful aura that shook the world.
Walking in the front was a man in a fiery red robe, his sleeves fluttering in the wind, like a spirit in a blazing fire.
This person was none other than Wang Feng, the number one person of the Fiery Sword Sect, who had fought with Shangguan Jiannan at the edge of the Netherworld before.
His eyes were sharp as he scanned the surroundings, his face full of vigilance, and he would occasionally glance into the distance, as if he was on guard against something.
"Brother Wang, if we make such a big show like this, will it cause unnecessary trouble?"
A disciple at the side lowered his voice and asked with concern, "If this matter gets out, the consequences will be disastrous!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Feng simply glanced at the other party, his tone revealing an unquestionable firmness: "My Fiery Sword Sect has its own secret methods to protect us, so why should we be afraid of others spying on us? We just need to act cautiously and make a quick decision."
After saying this, he continued to lead everyone and rushed towards the target, his fiery red figure drawing dazzling tracks in the jungle.
At Wang Feng's command, our disciples on the mountain gathered together immediately.
You tell me, even if other teams are faster, can they compare to us in terms of numbers? Besides, they may not be able to find this place.
Wang Feng walked with great speed and spoke easily as he spoke.
Don't worry, as long as we succeed this time, the Flame Sword Sect will definitely be among the top three.
Wang Feng was so confident that Wang Feng next to him couldn't help but nod in agreement, his face filled with joy.
Speaking of which, this time it was so smooth, all thanks to Brother Wang’s exploration last time.
Wang Feng added.
Brothers, work harder and keep up! When the disciples behind him heard this, they immediately became energetic, their faces filled with excitement and anticipation, and they followed Wang Feng's steps closely, feeling at ease in their hearts.
Suddenly, the air around them seemed to be ignited. Powerful breaths surged out, bringing with them gusts of wind, and the leaves rustled, as if playing music for their march.
After running for more than two hours, Shangguan Jiannan stopped and looked at the lush jungle in the distance with a sharp gaze.
That should be the location of the Flame Sword Sect.
He muttered to himself, then moved, took a deep breath, accelerated, and rushed away following the vague but discernible trail.
As he went deeper, Shangguan Jiannan's judgment became more and more firm, and his speed became as fast as lightning.
Everyone followed closely behind, shuttling through this desolate mountain range without seeing even the shadow of a monster. It seemed that the people from the Fiery Sword Sect had not expected that someone would track them, so the traces they left behind were not deliberately hidden.
Judging from the footprints and traces, there are quite a few of them, at least more than ten people.
Shangguan Jiannan analyzed carefully and made quick judgments.
Although the mountains were empty, everyone remained highly alert, taking every step carefully and not daring to slack off in the slightest.
Shangguan Jiannan led the way, moving quickly but steadily. He knew that as long as they followed these clues closely, they would be able to get closer to their goal step by step.
In this vast mountain range, they were like hunters tracking prey, and the Fiery Sword Sect was the target that was about to fall into the net.
The shadows of the trees on both sides whizzed backwards, so fast that it seemed like a dream.
We ran all the way and more than an hour passed.
Suddenly, Shangguan Jiannan stopped abruptly, his face tense, as if he was guarding against something.
"What's wrong?" Chu Qingxuan saw him suddenly slow down and finally stopped moving. She was puzzled and asked softly.
"Look at the footprints. They are deep and steady."
Shangguan Jiannan pointed at the marks on the ground and said, "We are probably about to reach the destination."
He stared at the pile of rotten leaves in front of him for a long time before he slowly spoke.
"We're there? Is this true?" Chu Qingxuan also lowered her head to look, but couldn't see anything. There was a look of confusion on her face.
"Really! There's no doubt about it!" Shangguan Jiannan nodded affirmatively, feeling a little helpless in his heart.
Chu Qingxuan was an expert among experts in the Tianjian Sect, but once she arrived in this forest, she was like a lost kitten.
If he hadn't led them, it would have been difficult to find those people from the Fiery Sword Sect! He sighed, turned around and said to everyone, "Walk slowly, we have to be careful."
