Although it was daytime, it was dark and damp in the Primeval Forest. The dense leaves overhead covered the sky, while thick piles of dead branches and fallen leaves were piled on the ground, creating an uneasy feeling when one stepped on them.
This was because no one knew what was hidden beneath the leaves.
All the members of the Bloodsucker Team spread out in a V-shape and carefully searched and advanced. The Master who had occupied Blackface's body was at the very front.
This ancient forest was full of danger, including beast zombies and the Shushan Resistance.
They didn't care if Chen Gou supported them or not and would definitely kill him if they met him.
At that moment, Violent Bear's disgruntled voice suddenly came from the headset. "You are going slow! Double your speed!"
Chen Gou's eyes flashed, but he could only order his team members to speed up.
According to his plan, he would wait until most of the senior teams of the Blood Umbrella Organization entered the forest and attracted the Shushan Organization's attention before following them in to see if he had a chance to take advantage of the situation.
Safety came first, and the Philosopher's Stone was indeed tempting, but not tempting enough to put his life on the line.
Plus…
Before they had even left, the entire Bloodsucker Team had been drafted by the Blood Thorn Team, the team Violent Bear was a part of!
In fact, the Bloodsucker Team existed as a reserve team for the Blood Thorn Team.
Now that something big had happened in Region A7, all the people who had heard the news coveted the important treasures that included the Philosopher's Stone.
Without waiting for Chen Gou to lead the team and set off, the Blood Thorn Team had asked him to follow them.
This was cooperation on the surface, but in reality, they were just cannon fodder for exploring the road.
The crunching sound of leaves being trampled was heard!
Then, there was a beast roar!
Hissing and wiggling sounds were made by certain reptiles as they moved…
When these sounds were mixed, they stimulated everyone's taut nerves and made them alert to all the possible dangers in their surroundings. As they went deeper and deeper, the feeling of being watched grew stronger and stronger.
However, no matter how much Arrowhawk probed the area with her Hawk Eyes, she couldn't see any trace of their enemy.
"Something's not right! Stop!"
The uneasy feeling in Chen Gou was very strong, so he firmly made the crowd stop and raise their guard.
"I can't see anything… Is it invisible?"
"That's unlikely. Arrowhawk's Hawk Eyes have a certain probability of seeing through hidden things, and Little Panda's sense of smell is so well-developed that it would be hard for someone to remain undetected if they've been following us stealthily for so long."
"If it's not invisible, it's either underground or… in the sky!"
Chen Gou looked up abruptly, as flying in the sky was easier to do compared to traversing underground for long periods.
Sure enough, the moment he raised his head, two grey figures approached like swords descending from the sky.
They were two cranes with zombie features!
On the back of each zombie crane sat a human reciting an incantation and making odd finger gestures.
"The light of Heaven, the light of Earth…
"The light of the sun, moon, and stars shines in all directions.
"Great Golden Light Incantation, obey my orders!"
Whoosh—
When this sound was heard, golden flares entwined with different colors instantly shot from the hands of these two people one after the other.
Terrifying whistling sounds were constantly produced in the void as if the air was being torn apart.
Ah!
Roars were heard, and a beam of golden light with a red flare shattered the light shield that Aman had raised over his head in advance.
Then, it pierced his left shoulder blade, causing a fist-sized hole to appear and a stench of burned flesh to be emitted.
At the same time, a beam of golden light with a green flare headed straight for Kelly.
Danger!
The power of this golden light was so terrifying that even Aman had only narrowly escaped, so how could Kelly withstand it?
Whoosh!
A golden chain with a silver flame around it flew out, and the hand grabbed Kelly's clothing from the back.
As it pulled the clothing back abruptly, Kelly's body was pulled along with it.
The overall power of Rocket Grab was fully displayed at that moment.
However, the danger had yet to be averted.
After all, the golden light was like a tracking missile that came after her relentlessly even after taking a turn!
"Arrow of Agility!"
Sensing imminent peril, Arrowhawk shot the fastest arrow of the Three-Phase Arrow, which collided with the golden light halfway.
With a bam, the two went down together, simultaneously exploding like fireworks.
However, Kelly's back had been affected by a small number of blue light waves, and her whole body immediately jerked as she let out a miserable scream.
Chen Gou flipped her over to have a look and gasped.
He saw barbed thorns growing wildly on her back. In the blink of an eye, her entire back was covered in blood, creating a ghastly sight.
"A wood-element blood print characteristic!"
This blood print characteristic was a short form of the Bloodline Magic Print Power Characteristic.
It was a passive special ability when human Awakeners awakened their bloodline at Level 10 and activated their magic attribute with their MP.
Demon Huntress Arrowhawk's Magic Condensation was part of the wind-element blood print.
The blood print characteristics of the blue light that had invaded Kelly's body would undoubtedly produce thistles and thorns that would destroy any living creature's body when it entered.
Fortunately, Kelly hadn't been infected by a lot of blue light. Although she looked miserable, her life was not in danger.
"Hey, they seem to be below Level 10. How dare they enter the Wolong Mountain Region?"
"What's there to say to these evil bandits? Hurry up and finish them off before they make contact with the outside world."
The two young men on the white cranes looked down at the Bloodsucker Team indifferently, their eyes filled with disgust and hatred.
"Six Jia Soul Condensation, Six Ding Body Condensation."
The man whose magic attribute was fire suddenly made that strange finger gesture again as he chanted the incantation.
As the incantation was heard, 12 beams of rainbow light flew from his hand in succession, weaving in the void.
"The Six Ding Jade Maidens and the Six Jia Generals descend and exterminate evil… Obey my order!"
Boom!
12 rainbow rays intertwined and landed on the ground before turning into a golden-armored celestial soldier over two meters tall with a long blade in hand.
Upon looking at the shocked eyes of the Bloodsucker Team, the young man couldn't help but raise his head slightly, revealing a proud look.
The skill of summoning the Ding Jia Heavenly Soldiers was called Six Ding and Six Jia Incantation. It was at the gold grade and had great potential. One could summon a total of 12 of the Daoist Six Ding Jade Maidens and Six Jia Generals at the highest level.
Although he could only condense one at his current level, he was confident that none of the vicious bandits from the Blood Umbrella Organization below would be able to stop him.
The golden-armored celestial soldier was expressionless, as if he was in the sky looking down on the most insignificant people on earth.
He was holding a four-foot-long light sword in his left hand as he raised his hand to slash at Chen Gou.
There was no way to describe the speed of that sword. He saw a crimson line of fire spreading from the blade, and Chen Gou's body felt the impact as the hitting sounds continued.
Three out of the five Shields of Moonlight of the Deathwalker Armor shattered because of the sword.
One Shield of Moonlight absorbed 200 magic damage, and three 600 points!
Therefore, if he hadn't worn this armor, he would have lost half of his life due to the sword energy.
This caused Chen Gou to shiver. He did not hesitate for a moment and immediately controlled the Radiant Dawn and made her raise her longsword before a beam of radiant sunlight landed on the young man.
The Wrath of Solari poured down with a silver flame, but the young man sneered and the golden-armored celestial soldier raised his longsword for the second time.
The sword light was gone in a flash and actually intercepted the Wrath of Solari directly overhead!
This was the first time Chen Gou had encountered such a situation, and the Daoist skills of the Shushan Resistance were considered an eye-opener. It was no wonder this organization had been able to fight with the Blood Umbrella Organization for so long.
The young man raised his chin once again. "You have such insignificant skills, yet you're still trying to…"
Boom!
Before he could finish his sentence, the light of the Wrath of Solari that had been intercepted above his head suddenly condensed and turned into a three-meter-tall giant.
With only one punch… it made half of his face crooked, pushing his pitiful body off the white crane's back.
