Chapter 383 Why is it our Qingyuan Sect?
"Master, something terrible has happened! Senior Brother Chen's soul tablet has shattered!"
"Senior Brother Li's soul tablet is also broken!"
"Senior Brother Zhang's soul tablet is also broken!"
……
A series of screams rang out, and the source of the sounds was none other than where the Qingyuan Sect members were.
As the screams spread, everyone in the entire Burial Immortal Valley looked over, their faces grave.
Even the disciples of Piaomiao Peak, who always regarded Qingyuan Sect as an enemy and were known for their sharp tongues, did not utter a single sarcastic remark.
Click, click, click...
One!
two!
three!
Four!
……
Like a machine gun, one soul tablet after another cracked open, until finally, almost dozens of soul tablets shattered at the same time.
The Qingyuan Sect brought several hundred disciples this time, including more than one hundred soul tablets for their key disciples.
In other words, these more than one hundred disciples are the core strength that the sect is focusing on cultivating.
But now, amidst the dense cracking sounds, sixty or seventy soul tablets exploded, accounting for almost half of the total number of soul tablets.
Including the previously broken soul tablets, more than a hundred soul tablets have been shattered, with less than a third remaining.
"How could this be?"
"How could so many of our Qingyuan Sect disciples suddenly die?"
All the Qingyuan Sect disciples, especially the elders leading the group, stared wide-eyed, their faces filled with terror.
"Puch!"
Suddenly, a muffled thud was heard, and Wu Yuanshan, the sect leader standing to the side, spat out a mouthful of blood, his body swaying precariously.
"Head!"
Someone immediately stepped forward to help him up.
Wu Yuanshan's face was contorted and his complexion was ashen; he had actually suffered internal injuries from anger.
"Why exactly?"
His heart was roaring, as if it were about to explode.
These disciples are the future and hope of the Qingyuan Sect.
If they all die, the Qingyuan Sect will be extinct, a burden the Qingyuan Sect cannot bear.
In fact, even Wu Yuanshan himself did not know why the sect's disciples suffered such heavy casualties.
Even if Wu Xuemei was eager to break through her cultivation level, she would never easily kill or devour the disciples of her own sect.
What exactly happened in this secret realm?
At this moment, the entire Burial Immortal Valley was filled with an atmosphere of panic and unease.
After Wu Yuanshan coughed up blood, everyone held their breath.
Clearly, an unpredictable and extremely dangerous entity has appeared in the secret realm, just as predicted by the Heavenly Secrets Bureau.
It can be said that all the major sects are now regretting not heeding the advice of the Heavenly Secrets Palace and sending so many outstanding disciples into the secret realm.
After a while, everyone stared intently at the unbroken soul tablet in front of them, silently praying: "Let the three days pass quickly, let the secret realm open soon!"
The wind whistled in my ears, like the whisper of death.
Shen Rugo pushed the speed of the four Swiftness Talismans to the limit, her petite figure transforming into a blurry streak of light in the forest, each touch of the ground covering dozens of feet.
However, the terrifying pressure from behind was ever-present and drawing ever closer!
The massive body of the Sky-Splitter Crocodile caused devastating destruction wherever it went, snapping ancient trees and carving deep furrows into the ground.
Its crimson eyes were fixed on the tiny figure in front of it, which exuded an aura of loathing, and it kept spewing out destructive breath.
"Simply running away won't get you caught sooner or later!"
Shen Rugo's mind raced.
The spiritual power and speed of the late-stage Nascent Soul demon beast far surpassed hers. Even with the aid of the Divine Speed Talisman, the gap between them was slowly narrowing.
"A direct confrontation is suicide; we must outsmart them and use these runes to maneuver!"
With a thought, Shen Ruge suddenly had three runes of different colors in her hand.
Without turning her head, she released a small amount of spiritual energy and activated one of the earth-yellow runes backward.
"Level 4 rune, Earth Rune!"
Rumble!
The earth trembled violently. Dozens of feet behind Shen Rugo, the ground suddenly rose up, and a huge wall, several feet thick and made of countless hard rocks, rose from the ground. Runes flowed on the wall, radiating a heavy earth-elemental spiritual energy.
The Sky-Splitter Crocodile was in hot pursuit, a hint of disdain flashing in its eyes. Without dodging or avoiding, the giant head crashed directly into it!
"Bang!!!"
With a deafening roar, the thick earthen and stone walls shattered as if made of paper, sending rocks flying and dust billowing everywhere.
But this slight obstruction caused the Sky-Splitting Crocodile to slow down for a moment.
It's now!
Shen Rugo's eyes flashed, and the other two talismans were activated at the same time; these were illusion talismans.
A mirror image of ice, a deep blue color, appeared.
In an instant, more than a dozen figures, identical to Shen Rugo and possessing the same aura, appeared around her!
Among these figures, some were formed from solidified ice, crystal clear, while others were composed of wind elemental power, elusive and unpredictable.
After they appeared, they immediately scattered and fled in different directions.
Just as the Sky-Splitting Crocodile smashed through the rock wall, a dozen or so "Shen Rugo" suddenly appeared before him, causing him to be momentarily stunned.
A flicker of confusion and rage flashed in his crimson eyes, and he instinctively exhaled a breath toward the clone with the densest aura.
"Crack..."
The Xuanbing mirror image and its clone were instantly frozen and torn apart, turning into spiritual energy and dissipating.
Taking advantage of this precious opportunity, Shen Rugo once again pushed the Divine Speed Talisman to its limit and fled towards the more complex and deep canyon.
The canyon is filled with jagged rocks, dim lighting, and narrow passages that can only accommodate a few people walking side by side.
This is undoubtedly a limitation for the massive Sky-Splitter Crocodile.
Shen Rugo, like a nimble swift, darted through the narrow gaps.
The Sky-Splitter Crocodile chased into the canyon, and its speed indeed decreased significantly.
It roared and slammed its massive body against the mountain walls on both sides, causing boulders to rumble and tumble down.
"Earthquake and Mountain Shaking Talisman!"
Shen Rugo seized the opportunity and photographed a rune with a mountain pattern drawn on it.
boom!
The rock wall where she was standing shook violently, and a large number of boulders poured down into the canyon passage below like a torrential rain, instantly burying half of the Sky-Splitting Crocodile's body.
"Roar!"
The Sky-Splitting Crocodile was stunned by the impact. With a sudden burst of spiritual energy, it shattered the boulder pressing down on it into dust.
But in that short delay, Shen Rugo's figure had already disappeared around the corner ahead.
The Sky-Splitting Crocodile grew increasingly enraged, no longer holding back its power. Its terrifying demonic energy erupted in full force, and a dense, icy mist enveloped its body, freezing even the air in its wake.
It no longer relies on its physical strength to charge around, but begins to use its innate supernatural abilities.
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Dozens of seemingly solid ice spears condensed in front of it, accompanied by a piercing shriek, and rained down on the area where Shen Rugo was hiding like arrows.
"Vajra Talisman!"
Shen Rugo threw out another rune.
A layer of solidified golden light enveloped his entire body.
During this time, she took the time to draw a lot of runes, each of which was a level four superior or top-grade rune.
With her current strength and talisman-making skills, she can easily draw a level four talisman. To her, talismans are truly like waste paper, worthless.
"Flowing Cloud Escape Talisman!"
Shen Rugo's speed increased again, and her figure became elusive.
Ice spears rained down in dense formation, some striking the rock walls and blasting open huge ice craters, while others struck Shen Rugo's golden protective shield, producing crisp clanging sounds.
Although she failed to break through the defenses, the enormous impact still caused her blood and qi to surge, and she threw out two more Vajra Protection Talismans.
The shield's light flickered rapidly.
"I can't just stick to defense, I have plenty of runes!"
Shen Rugo suddenly turned around, flicking her hands in quick succession. Several flame and lightning runes shot towards the Sky-Splitting Crocodile like meteors, targeting its slightly open maw and relatively vulnerable parts such as its eyes.
"Explosive Flame Talisman!"
"Geng Metal Thunder Talisman!"
boom!
Crack!
A blazing fireball and golden lightning bolts exploded on the head of the Sky-Splitter Crocodile.
The sudden high temperature and the numbing sensation of lightning caused the Sky-Splitter Crocodile to let out a painful roar and instinctively close its eyes.
