The two groups of people, one in front and one behind, seemed to have made an agreement long ago. In the plan that Xiong Ba and Dugu Yifang had decided on, it was to prevent any mishaps, but it still couldn't change the pain and loss they suffered.
No matter how meticulous the plan was, it was impossible to predict the unknown danger. The Fire Qilin had existed in the Soaring Cloud Cave for countless years. Although he had calculated that the Fire Qilin was the safest passage in the Soaring Cloud Cave, how to get past the defense of the Fire Qilin had become a thorny problem.
No one was more familiar with the Lingyun Cave than the Fire Qilin, and the Fire Qilin was a very powerful divine beast. It had existed since ancient times, and no one had ever killed it.
Unless you were a Divine level expert, you could sneak past it and be careful not to let it discover you.
The origin of the Fire Qilin was very mysterious. There were no historical records, and no one knew who raised it or how it lived in the Numinous Cloud Cave. For thousands of years, the Fire Qilin rarely left the Lingyun Cave. What did it eat? Beasts needed food, but the Fire Qilin had lived here for thousands of years.
No one knew about this secret, and no one had considered this question. The world only knew that there was a Fire Qilin here. Every time it appeared, there would always be a miracle in the sky. It was a sign of chaos in the world, or a flood, or a natural disaster.
In any case, once the Fire Qilin appeared outside the world, it would definitely not be a good thing. Now, it was also due to human factors that angered the Fire Qilin. A battle between humans and beasts broke out. From the degree of devastation, it was equivalent to a large-scale martial arts world war.
After all, the people who could come to the Lingyun Cave were all first-class experts in the Jianghu. They were elites who could fight against a hundred people alone. The power created by thousands of people pouring into the cave was not weak. However, from the roar of the Fire Qilin, one could feel that the Fire Qilin was not afraid. It seemed to have the will to fight.
The Fire Qilin could not be described as an ordinary beast. It was no different from the legendary phoenix and dragon. It was a true divine beast, not a strange beast that existed in the world. It had human intelligence, but it was not as calculative as humans.
Luo Tian took a deep breath. His expression was very serious, as if he was not facing a beast, but a super intelligent person. The Fire Qilin was engaged in a fierce battle with the heroes of the world. Luo Tian was happy to see this situation.
However, Luo Tian was extremely careful. He wondered how many people had died and how many were injured. Even Xiong Ba wasn't spared and was heavily injured. Dugu Yifang wasn't doing any better.
It could be said that the people brought by the World Association and Peerless City had almost all been lost. The two sides added up to almost a thousand people. Xiong Ba and Dugu Yifang couldn't accept this fact, and they had underestimated the Fire Qilin's strength and ferocity.
The Fire Qilin was an existence of a Divine level expert. Its strength was incomparably shocking, and it was difficult for knives and spears to injure it in the slightest. The weapons that struck the Fire Qilin could only see balls of sparks. There were no signs of internal injuries.
The Fire Qilin became more and more excited as it fought. It often attacked places where the crowd was dense. Its body carried scorching flames. The flames on its body alone could turn people with slow cultivation or reaction speed into ashes and burn them to ashes.
Those who had all kinds of thoughts had now lost them. They all wanted to leave alive. The way they came was blocked by the Fire Qilin, so it was impossible to retreat.
Stepping on the hot ground and facing the scorching air, everyone's faces were flushed red and their bodies were drenched in sweat. However, they were helpless and their eyes were filled with panic and fear. They were no longer as excited as they were when they entered the cave. They were mentally exhausted, but they had to force themselves to be alert, worried that the Fire Qilin would attack them.
All the schemes they had made in advance were useless. The only thing they could do was to unite and deal with the threat from the Fire Qilin.
Xiong Ba was covered in blood. He was at the front and had suffered great damage. Under the protection of Qin Shuang, Nie Feng, and the others, they slowly moved in. Nameless, Sword Saint, and the others opened up a path ahead.
The people from the various sects and gangs behind him no longer had the same thoughts as before. They all followed behind him. Now that they had no way out, they could only walk forward. The sudden disappearance of the Fire Qilin made everyone feel relieved.
Perhaps the Fire Qilin felt that its life was in danger, so it suddenly retreated. Seeing the fire in the deep part of the cave and the angry roar of the Fire Qilin, Dugu Yifang suddenly stopped and glanced back at Xiong Ba. He snorted coldly, and his eyes revealed a cold smile and ridicule.
Although he was also injured, compared to Xiong Ba, he was much better. He had never felt such pleasure before. As long as Xiong Ba was in a disadvantageous position, it would be a blessing for him.
Looking at Dugu Yifang's smug expression, Xiong Ba ignored him as if he didn't care about Dugu Yifang at all. His expression was extremely calm, and there wasn't any fluctuation in his emotions.
Bu Jingyun's eyes suddenly flashed with a trace of ruthlessness, but he quickly retracted it. He wasn't sure if he could kill Xiong Ba now. With his understanding of Xiong Ba, he wouldn't tell everyone so blatantly that he was injured, seriously injured.
He even suspected that this was Xiong Ba's scheme. He did not want to lose the people brought by the World Association here, but to destroy the remaining forces of Peerless City here. This was probably the greatest scheme in his heart!
He understood Xiong Ba too well, and he didn't dare to reveal the hatred in his heart. He was afraid that Xiong Ba would be alerted and lose his chance to take revenge. Moreover, there was an expert like Nameless in front of him. Once he made a move, Qin Shuang, Nie Feng, and even Duan Lang, whom he had never dealt with, would use this opportunity to stand out.
Duan Lang sneered when he saw the change in Bu Jingyun's aura. He had always suspected that Bu Jingyun wasn't a simple person. Unlike Nie Feng, Nie Feng was a gentle person who could interact with anyone. He had always treated people with sincerity and was his only friend in the World Association.
He felt that Bu Jingyun was luckier than he was. A small fry left behind by the Huo Clan was actually favored by Xiong Ba and accepted as a disciple. As the son of the Nan Lin Sword Head, Commander Duan, he could only be a servant in the World Association.
His hatred towards Xiong Ba wasn't any less than Bu Jingyun. This was the greatest pain in his heart in the past ten years, and also his greatest humiliation. He silently endured it so that one day, Xiong Ba would see his power and replace him.
Only in this way would he be able to give some comfort to the unbearable memories of his childhood. Suddenly, Bu Jingyun and Duan Liang's eyes met in the air, sparks flying everywhere.
Both of them were extremely proud people. Bu Jingyun had never put Duan Lang in his eyes. He had always thought that Duan Lang was a loser who would always be trampled under his feet. There was only one Bu Jingyun, and he was unique.
He didn't need friends. In fact, there was one thing about his hatred towards Duan Lang that no one noticed. Nie Feng treated Duan Lang very well, and their relationship wasn't any worse than his. When Duan Lang was injured, Nie Feng was also very careful and often took care of the servants in the World Association.
The colder and more arrogant a person was, the more persistent they were and the more they needed friends. Bu Jingyun was a little jealous that Duan Lang could get Nie Feng's friendship. Looking at Nie Feng and Qin Shuang's concern, he sighed at Xiong Ba's good luck to have taken in such two good disciples.
However, Bu Jingyun knew that Xiong Ba had always suspected that he had ill intentions in the world. Although he had received Xiong Ba's Cloud Striking Palm, Nie Feng had obtained the Godspeed Legs, and Qin Shuang's Skyfrost Fist, he knew that in Xiong Ba's eyes, the most loyal and reliable person was still Qin Shuang, followed by Nie Feng. He would not be Xiong Ba's trusted aide.
Ever since Xiong Ba was injured, he had been taken care of by Nie Feng and Qin Shuang, while Bu Jingyun and Duan Lang could only be used as guards to defend against external attacks. His life had never been in the hands of Bu Jingyun and Duan Lang before.
Xiong Ba had just discovered Duan Lang and Bu Jingyun's secret battle, and he felt a trace of joy in his heart. Duan Lang was a chess piece that he used to restrain Bu Jingyun. He had been suppressing Duan Lang not because he didn't know Duan Lang's talent and ability, but because he needed Duan Lang to be Bu Jingyun's opponent so that Bu Jingyun would have to risk his life for him.
In the World Association, he recognized two people. One was Qin Shuang, the other was Nie Feng. Qin Shuang was too honest, and she was not good at scheming and scheming. She followed orders and did not have complicated thoughts.
Nie Feng, on the other hand, did not like to be in the limelight. He did not like to fight and kill, and was even more indifferent to power. Treat people with sincerity, do not fight for power, do not seek profit, and do not murder others.
The two people he thought highly of couldn't achieve the balance of power in his heart, so he could only make Bu Jingyun and Duan Lang his opponents. He was confident that he could control their fates. Bu Jingyun's thoughts were the only thing he couldn't guess, but Duan Lang's thoughts were something he could grasp.
Bu Jingyun had a secret that no one knew about. Although Xiong Ba had been investigating him, he still felt uneasy. Bu Jingyun had been filled with a violent aura since he was young, and he was extremely murderous.
"Follow them, don't delay.”Xiong Ba ordered weakly.
Initially, they thought that the Fire Qilin would not appear again. However, when they reached a very deep fork in the road, the Fire Qilin suddenly attacked. The Vile-Emperor, Nameless, Sword Saint, and the others were all injured.
No one could compare to the few top experts in terms of crisis awareness. The few of them joined forces and used all their strength to attack the Fire Qilin. The Fire Qilin let out an injured scream. Many of the people around him bled from their noses as they died from the Fire Qilin's thunderous roar.
The Fire Qilin used both its head and legs to attack furiously. Bang, bang, bang! Wuming and the others spat out blood, but their swords remained on the Fire Qilin's body. Hot blood spurted out from some of the wounds like fountains.
The blood was like molten iron. When it touched a person's body, that person would instantly turn into a person on fire. Some of them covered their eyes and cried out in pain. Some of them covered their stomachs as if they were suffering the most terrifying torture in the world.
Suddenly, a few drops of blood that were hard to notice flew towards Xiong Ba and the others. Everyone who had been paying attention to the tragic battle in front of them suddenly felt as if their bodies had suffered a heavy blow from an expert, and they were all stained with Qilin's blood.
