Chapter 497: The Unconscious Elder (3)
The core group had long secretly integrated into the Great Mountain Alliance and become the main branch of the Hidden Rock Army.
As long as they spent some time, they would develop even more than before.
After all, they were all seniors who had made huge contributions to the Great Mountain Region. Jiang Li still did not want Situ Wuchang to hear the bad news of the sect’s destruction.
The collision continued, and Jiang Li’s sword light became more and more visible to the naked eye.
This day should have been cloudy, but under the collision of the two huge sword lights, it had long been torn apart by the aftershock.
It was not until the sun rose in the sky that Jiang Li slashed out with his sword. Two almost identical sword lights collided, and they were in a stalemate for a long time before dissipating together.
Jiang Li finally successfully grasped this sword move that split open the domain.
Although he needed to borrow the power of the Earth-rank flying sword to resist Pei Zhong, who had held back his Sword Heart, to be able to do this in a mere twelve hours meant that his comprehension was already beyond understanding.
“It’s time to go. Jiang Li, you must be careful. The Blood King has a way to let the dead leave Tragic Death City and use this to rope in a large number of minions.”
“When all the dead leave the Death City, they will be bound by a contract. They can’t be trusted.”
“Try not to fight them head-on. The Great Mountain Region will rely on you in the future!”
After saying that, Pei Zhong looked at the sun above his head. His figure gradually transformed into a white light and disappeared into the horizon.
The other three former leaders below also turned into white light and disappeared, leaving only ashes that originally formed a body that scattered in the wind.
Jiang Li had used three different methods to imprison those three, but he was actually unable to capture them.
However, Sword Head Pei Zhong had left him with important information.
The Blood King did not completely control Tragic Death City....
He only grasped a passage to let the dead enter and leave Tragic Death City. He used it as a bargaining chip to rope in many wild experts who wanted to return to the world of the living.
For example, the ten people from Ink Scar Academy were in this situation.
As for the four former leaders of the Great Mountain Region, they had a contract set under the rules of Tragic Death City. They could only return to the main world for a period of time and had to act according to the contents of the contract.
In this chaos, the other dead people who appeared in their true bodies were probably like this.
In that case, since Tragic Death City was not united, did that mean that there were also dead people they could rope in?
…
That night, Jiang Li reopened the Gate of Hell and returned to the Netherworld Illusion from the Great Mountain Region.
This Gate of Hell was good in most situations. It was much faster to travel by himself.
However, it could only be opened at night. In many emergencies, it was rendered useless.
Fortunately, Fengdu City was not attacked again.
When he left earlier, Jiang Li controlled the city and directly burned three earth veins.
Using this as energy, he had been moving crazily in the territory illusion. Not to mention those ten guys, even he might not be able to catch up to his city.
Moreover, although that Grand Secretary was a scholar, every Earth Immortal was tough. They could not be beaten to death easily.
In a day and night, there was a high chance that no one would win.
Those ten guys probably did not have the time to find trouble with them.
However, when Jiang Li entered the city, he discovered that the female ghost, Qin Shuman, was leading thirteen Ghost Kings to surround an unconscious old man as if they were facing a great enemy.
It was the Earth Immortal from Ink Scar Academy, Grand Secretary Meng Gu.
“How… how did this guy find this place!?”
