Chapter 333 Ambush
The passage of Flame Mountain is a very important route, so although there are many robbers and are very dangerous, many monks and caravans will still come here every day. After arriving here, all monks will stay temporarily.
The caravan invites monks who seem to be fine to join in and improve the strength of the caravan. The monks will also look for teams to join. If they really can't find them, the monks will eventually form a loose team and cross this passage in the Flaming Mountain together.
Although this passage is occupied by robbers and is very dangerous, it must be encountered. This passage is hundreds of miles wide, and there are strange peaks, canyons, gullies, and caves everywhere. Various routes are crisscrossed, complex like a huge maze. The number of robber gangs is limited, and people cannot be arranged to stare at every place in this hundreds of miles wide passage.
Seven days later, the number of Jinhai caravans where Kong Fang was located increased to 61, and the cultivators who joined the Jinhai caravans also reached 16. Among them were early stage monks like Kong Fang, as well as mid- and late stage monks in the Spirit Transformation Realm, and there were one peak monks in the Spirit Transformation Realm. However, this peak monk in the Spirit Transformation Realm joined earlier than Kong Fang, and was one of the first monks to join the Jinhai caravans.
Except for the monks in the caravan, the other monks come from all over the place. Their dresses and personalities are very different. In order to let everyone exert their strength, the captain of the caravan, a extreme monk named Mo Liubai, who was named Kong Fang and others who joined the caravan, arranged a position in the caravan, and formed a defensive formation with the caravan members so that everyone could play a role.
However, this defensive formation is a very simple one. It does not increase the strength of each monk at all. It is just that when someone faces an attack, the companions next to them can provide timely assistance and jointly fight against the invading enemy.
In the end, this kind of formation depends on personal strength.
Like when the Qi Sect and Qianlonghu attacked the Jinyang Sect together, all the half-blooded demon dragons in the Spirit Transformation Realm formed a very powerful formation, allowing the attack and defense of all the half-blooded demon dragons to form a whole, and there is also an increase. That kind of formation is extremely advanced, and it is impossible for ordinary forces to have it.
There are not so advanced formations in the Artifact Sect.
During these seven days, occasionally there will be caravans or teams with almost the same number of people entering the passage and starting to cross the Flame Mountain.
Today, the Jinhai Caravan where Kong Fang is located has already collected enough people needed and is ready to set off across the Flaming Mountain.
The sixty-one monks at the very beginning of the Spirit Transformation Realm formed a huge spherical shape and flew into this huge passage hundreds of miles wide in the middle of the Flame Mountain.
The first route Mo Liubai, the captain of the caravan and the extreme monk of the Spirit Transformation Realm, chose was a canyon several miles wide, and everyone flew along the winding canyon to the depths of the Flame Mountain.
The passage in the middle of the Flame Mountain is very wide and the terrain is very complex. In addition, thousands of feet high are completely covered by the raging flames floating from both sides of the passage. Therefore, monks can only fly in this passage and dare not fly to too high places. You must know that the closer they are to those flames, the higher the temperature, even the monks in the Spirit Transformation Realm dare not get too close. Moreover, the flames keep churning, and sometimes the tongue of flames swept hundreds of feet in an instant. If monks get too close, they may be swallowed up directly.
In this passage, you may encounter attacks from robbers at any time, so the caravan’s flight speed is not fast.
Along this canyon, everyone flew for three days, and then turned into an underground cave. The underground cave was pitch black and there was nothing to see. Fortunately, everyone was a cultivator in the Spirit Transformation Realm, and could use the power of the soul to check it out, and was not worried about taking the wrong path or encountering a sudden attack from robbers.
Because the underground passage is not large enough, the caravan can only change its formation and form a long snake formation. Kong Fang's original cultivation level is only in the early stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm, so he flew at the end with other cultivators who are also in the early stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm.
The route in the passage of Flame Mountain is too complicated, and every caravan will not be able to follow the route every time, which makes the robber gangs active in Flame Mountain have no fixed place and they are plundering everywhere. Sometimes, when the robber gangs meet each other, they will fight and rob each other.
There was nothing wrong with the journey, Kong Fang and his team spent six days finally flying out of this underground passage. They had not encountered any robber gangs in the past ten days, which made the people in the caravan feel relieved. However, they didn't dare to relax too much, after all, they have only walked a short distance now.
Next, the route Mo Liubai chose changed again, and everyone flew along a narrow mountain.
This mountain is extremely high, but it is long. Kong Fang and his team flew halfway up the mountain. They could only see the steep peaks and could not see the peaks. They felt like they were flying in the abyss. Fortunately, there was a plain that was more than ten miles wide and hundreds of miles long on the other side of Kong Fang and his team, which made this feeling not so prominent.
Flying forward along the mountain that was as high and low as waves, no one noticed that at a higher point in the mountain, a team of more than 70 robbers were staring at Kong Fang and the others in a sunken position.
"Chief, although there are many casual cultivators in this team, judging by their familiarity with the terrain and some unintentional tacit understanding, they should be a caravan." A monk with a bearded face and short and strong face curled up slightly and said with great joy, while his eyes were full of greed.
In fact, before entering the passage, the people in the caravan changed their clothes and dressed differently, just to reduce the possibility of being targeted by robbers. After all, the caravan is generally much richer than the casual cultivator team.
The leader in the monk's mouth looked like a white-faced scholar, with fair skin, and didn't look like a vicious robber at all, but his narrow eyes looked particularly evil.
"It's indeed a caravan!" The white-faced scholar nodded with a faint smile. Suddenly, the white-faced scholar's eyes turned slightly and he looked at the short and strong monk beside him. "But the number of people on the other side is not much smaller than ours. He attacks rashly, but it's making my children bleed and fight to the death. What's your intention to say this?"
The white-faced scholar still had a smile on his face when he said this, as if he was telling a joke, but the short and strong monk was frightened when he heard this, and his body suddenly trembled, and his face immediately turned pale. The short and strong monk immediately knelt down on one knee, and his voice trembled and explained: "Chief, I have absolutely no intention of the leader. I said this just to let the brothers get more gains. I have no other ideas."
Cold sweat appeared on the forehead of the short and strong monk. The others were also serious at this time, looking quietly at the white-faced scholar and the short and strong monk.
"Haha!" The white-faced scholar smiled relaxedly, reached out and helped the short and strong monk up from the ground. "See what you said, I didn't say you have any intention of me."
"Absolutely not!" The short and strong monk shook his head and denied that his fear of this leader had penetrated into everyone's bones. Because their leader was too moody and if something was wrong, he would face punishment. If he said something that would touch the leader's bottom line or did something similar, it would be even more life-threatening!
However, this leader also has an advantage, that is, he is generous enough, otherwise his subordinates would not be able to stand his personality and run away.
"My sons!" The scholar in white suddenly looked at all the monks and said loudly: "This is a caravan, which must have a lot of wealth and treasures. Although the number of people on the other side is not much smaller than that of us, what are we?"
"Hungry wolf!"
The white-faced scholar raised his arms and shouted, "We are a group of hungry wolves, but they are just a group of sheep. How can we be afraid of wolves?"
The white-faced scholar's mouth curled slightly, and his eyes became even more evil, "Do you dare to follow me to slaughter this caravan and steal their treasures?"
"Dare!" everyone answered immediately.
The short and strong monk also replied loudly, but he felt a little uncomfortable. Just now, he proposed to steal the treasures of the caravan, but the leader asked him what he was thinking. But now, the leader took the initiative to take everyone to steal. Are you not afraid of bleeding and fighting hard now?
He was dissatisfied, but the short and strong monk dared not say it, otherwise he would never have the chance to snatch the treasure, because he was already a corpse at that time.
"My boys, come with me!"
More than seventy robbers immediately flew forward along the upper part of the narrow mountain peak and chased the caravan where Kong Fang was.
On the narrow and long mountain peaks, two teams, one high and one low, are flying forward, but the robbers are faster. The robbers are not worried about other people's sneak attacks. This is the base camp of these robbers. Generally, no one dares to provoke them except other stronger robber gangs. There are not many robber gangs stronger than them.
More than twenty minutes later, the robbers had quietly flew to the front from the mountain above Kong Fang and his head. After the robbers surpassed Kong Fang and his team, they did not stop, but continued to rush.
After leaving Kong Fang and the others far behind, the robbers flew down quickly from the top of the mountain and arrived at the mountainside. Then, they immediately dug and hid.
The white-faced scholar stood on a stone behind and watched the subordinates quickly hide into the earth. He couldn't help but smile with satisfaction. The white-faced scholar waved his hand, and the blue wind-type magic power surged out, wiping out all the traces left by the subordinates on the ground.
Then the white-faced scholar jumped off the stone and stood behind the stone. He looked up at the surging flames in the sky, and the white-faced scholar's face once again showed an evil smile.
Mo Liubai flew at the forefront with two peak monks in the Spirit Transformation Realm. One of these two peak monks in the Spirit Transformation Realm was a member of the original caravan, and the other was invited by the side of the Flame Mountain, named Quero!
Behind the three were cultivators in the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm and the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm. At the end of the line were cultivators such as Kong Fang and others in the early stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm.
