Chapter 1871 Let's Die!
A sharp pain shot through him, but the falcon used the force to lunge forward and roll into the crevice, with the owl following closely behind like a fish!
"Chase!"
Yue Wuhen's expression darkened; he hadn't expected the other party to be so decisive and well-prepared.
His figure blurred, and he appeared at the entrance of the crevice, chasing after it without hesitation.
Two Darkmoon elites hurriedly followed.
The fissures do not lead directly underground, but rather meander downwards with numerous branching paths, clearly forming a naturally formed network of underground rock fissures. It is dark, damp, and filled with jagged rocks.
The falcon clutched his bleeding left shoulder, his face deathly pale. The power of the moonlight raged within him, chilling him to the bone, making even the flow of his spiritual energy sluggish.
Night Owl supported him as they moved swiftly through the darkness. She seemed to have an extraordinary sensitivity to this complex terrain, always managing to find relatively wide or hidden paths.
"Captain, your injury!" Night Owl's voice was filled with anxiety.
"I won't die! Run! We can't let him catch up!" Cang Jun gritted his teeth and swallowed a few more pills to forcefully suppress his injuries and the chill.
Yue Wuhen is right behind us; if we get blocked in a dead end, we're doomed.
“Turn left, there’s a pool ahead, and there’s an underwater passage!” Night Owl whispered.
The two quickly turned left and sure enough, they saw a small underground pool with dark, murky water.
Without hesitation, he leaped in!
The icy, bone-chilling underground water instantly enveloped my entire body.
Led by the owl, the two followed an undercurrent and dived deeper into the water.
A few breaths later, Yue Wuhen appeared by the pool. He scanned the water with his divine sense and frowned slightly.
The underwater currents are complex and the disturbances are intense.
"Split up and chase them! They're badly injured and can't have gone far! We must kill them and prevent them from getting the news back to Wan Chuan Sect!" Yue Wuhen coldly ordered.
The two Darkmoon elites nodded, and one of them chose a side path to pursue them.
Yue Wuhen stared at the pool, pondered for a moment, and then transformed into a beam of moonlight, shooting into the water!
He actually went into the water to chase after them!
The underwater world is dark and gloomy, with swift currents and countless jagged reefs and underwater caves.
With the help of the owl's guidance and an underwater breathing talisman, the falcon and the owl struggled forward.
But the falcon was too badly injured and its speed was getting slower and slower. The ripples in the water behind it were becoming clearer and clearer as the pursuers drew closer!
"Captain! There's a small side cave ahead, but it might be a good hiding place..." Night Owl transmitted telepathically.
"No! Yue Wuhen's divine sense is too strong, we can't hide from him!" Cang Jun gasped, a resolute glint in his eyes. "Night Owl, listen! I'll give you the Blood Soul Communication Talisman and the jade slip recording our discovery of the unusual location and our encounter with Yue Wuhen! Take them and use the Shadow Escape Talisman to leave alone! I'll stay here and lure them away!"
"Captain! No!" Night Owl cried out in alarm.
"This is an order!" the Falcon roared, shoving a crimson talisman and a jade slip into the Night Owl's hand. "Our mission is to deliver the intelligence back! It's more important than our lives! Go!"
Night Owl's eyes reddened; he knew this was the only way to possibly preserve the intelligence.
She nodded emphatically, no longer hesitating, and took out a talisman covered with mysterious shadow patterns, slapping it on her body. Her figure instantly became blurry and transparent, as if she had truly melted into the shadows of the undercurrent, and silently slid away in another direction.
Almost at the same moment the owl disappeared, the water behind them churned violently, and Yue Wuhen's figure shot forward like a white swordfish!
He spotted the falcon leaning against the rocks, its breath weak and its blood staining the surrounding waters red.
"He's got a tough nut to crack." Yue Wuhen stopped a few feet away, looking at him coldly. "Where are your companions? Did they abandon you and run away?"
The falcon grinned, revealing bloodstained teeth, its smile grotesque: "Yue Wuhen, the Palace Master of Longyin Temple... has personally come to the Spirit Realm to act like a rat, heh, too bad, the news has already spread..."
Yue Wuhen's eyes turned cold, and without further ado, he raised his hand and unleashed a Moonlight Sword Qi!
He wanted to kill this person quickly before chasing after the other one!
A fierce glint flashed in the falcon's eyes. Instead of retreating, it advanced, facing the sword aura head-on, frantically pouring all the remaining spiritual power in its body, along with some of the burning life essence, into the last few of the most offensive Gengjin Thunder Fiend Beads in its hand!
"Let's die together, you son of a bitch!"
Boom!!!
A violent explosion occurred underwater!
The energy of Geng metal, the power of thunder and evil, and the spiritual power from the self-destruction of the Azure Falcon mixed together to form a destructive turbulent current that completely muddied and tore apart this body of water!
Yue Wuhen snorted coldly, and the moonlight around him condensed into a shield, blocking all the aftershocks of the explosion. His figure only swayed slightly.
But his expression turned even uglier. The other party's self-destruction not only destroyed the body and destroyed the evidence, but also completely disrupted all the aura and energy traces in this place, causing him to instantly lose his sense of the other person's whereabouts!
Damn it!
Yue Wuhen unleashed his full divine sense, searching through the chaotic waters, but found only a few tattered fragments of a cloak and bits of flesh and blood; there was no trace of Night Owl.
That woman, who was like a shadow, actually slipped away right under her nose? And she even took the information with her?
A surge of anger welled up in Yue Wuhen's heart.
He underestimated the decisiveness and professionalism of these people.
"Contact the fairy immediately and report the situation here." He said in a deep voice to the two Dark Moon elites who arrived later, "The Wan Chuan Sect has noticed our actions, and one of them may have escaped. The plan needs to be accelerated, and we need to prepare for the Wan Chuan Sect's counterattack."
He took one last look at the murky waters that were gradually calming down after the explosion, his eyes filled with malice.
"Wanchuan Sect... Mingchuan... It seems I'll have to play along with you for a while."
The moonless figure transformed into a streak of light, bursting out of the water and disappearing into the night sky of the mountains.
At the end of another extremely hidden tributary of the underground river, a night owl, soaking wet and extremely weak, struggled to crawl out from an inconspicuous crevice in the rock.
With trembling hands, she took out the crimson Blood Soul Communication Talisman, spat a mouthful of her own blood onto it without hesitation, and used her last bit of strength to activate it!
The talisman transformed into a barely perceptible stream of blood-red light, ignoring the obstruction of layers of rock and water veins, and followed the preset spatial coordinates, disappearing in a flash towards the Wan Chuan Sect!
……
Wanchuan Sect, Guantian Mirror Platform.
Mingchuan stared intently at the energy map of the Western Regions, at the several monitoring nodes in the Black Wind Ridge area that were abnormally high in brightness. After reaching its peak, the brightness of one of the nodes suddenly went out!
Ji Zhou rushed back, his face ashen: "Brother Ming, we can't get in touch with the Hidden Edge Squad! Their last life lamp showed... Captain Cang Jun's life lamp... just went out!"
"The vice-captain's Night Owl Soul Lamp is extremely faint, but it's still lit! The other team members' soul lamps are normal, but all communications are cut off!"
Mingchuan clenched his fist tightly, his knuckles cracking.
The soul lamp went out; the person had perished!
Almost at the same time that Ji Zhou finished speaking, from one corner of the Observation Mirror, an extremely faint stream of blood-red light ignored all the restrictions, directly pierced through space, appeared on the platform, and transformed into a chaotic but information-rich blood-red light screen, which flashed and disappeared into Ming Chuan's brow!
Blood Soul Message!
This was the last intelligence sent out by the Hidden Edge Squad members at the cost of their lives and blood when they faced certain death!
