C2176 Fear of the Night(part Ii)
However, no one noticed anything out of the ordinary. Even the most powerful master could not detect anything out of the ordinary.
However, they did not dare to lower their guard, because judging from the Black Wolf's performance, this place definitely had some powerful vicious beast.
It was at this time that a large tree in front of Grandmaster Zong was suddenly ripped apart by several roots. Afterwards, a huge black shadow impressively appeared in front of him.
Grandmaster Zong hastily stepped back. Focusing his gaze, he discovered that there was a giant python in front of him.
"Huala!"
Suddenly, the python's thick tail swept towards the person closest to it.
Caught off guard, that person was sent flying.
This giant python was not weak. Grandmaster Zong and the rest hurriedly activated the Cold Symbol paper in their hands. In an instant, streams of cold Qi swept towards the giant python.
No matter how large this enormous python was, it was unable to withstand the powerful icy energy. In the blink of an eye, it had already been frozen into an ice cube.
The moment the giant python was frozen into ice, the originally trembling black wolf was no longer afraid.
"Looks like the black wolf is afraid of this enormous python." Someone could not help but nod.
"I'm afraid this python has the ability to conceal its aura. Even at such a close distance, we were unable to sense it." Some people sighed.
Grandmaster Zong looked at Wang Tongtian and said, "Wang Tongtian, can the black wolf still sense the Winged Bird?"
Judging from the current situation, Master Zong felt that the appearance of this giant python was an accident and shouldn't be with the Flaming Winged Bird.
Wang Tongtian shook his head, "The black wolf can no longer sense the Flaming Winged Bird's aura. It seems that it took advantage of this time to escape."
"Continue searching the area!" Grandmaster Zong was not willing to just let this opportunity slip by, so he immediately issued an order.
Wang Tongtian could only allow the black wolf to continue searching the area. However, after spending half a day, they still could not find any traces of the Flamewing Bird. Clearly, the Flowing Winged Bird had already escaped.
"I can only wait for another Flamewing Bird to appear." Master Zong said helplessly.
Saying that, he led everyone back.
Before they even reached the Imperial City, they saw four to five people rushing towards the southwest.
"What's going on with all of you? Don't tell me there's another Flaming Winged Bird?" Grandmaster Zong immediately shouted.
Those few people turned around to find Grandmaster Zong and the others nearby. One of them hurriedly said, "Grandmaster Zong, just now, there was a Flamewing Bird that was fleeing in this direction. We went there to provide support.
Upon hearing these words, Grandmaster Zong's eyes immediately lit up as he immediately said, "Let's chase after him!"
Then he brought Wang Tongtian and the others to chase in the southwest direction.
Half a cup of tea later, they heard the sound of a battle not far in front of them. From what they heard, it seemed to be the sound of someone battling with the Flaming Winged Bird.
"Quickly go!" Grandmaster Zong's spirit shook, after which he increased his speed and dashed forward.
Elder He, Wang Tongtian, and the others followed closely behind him.
When they felt the place, they saw scorched marks on the ground surrounding the weeds. A person with half of his body burnt was lying on the ground. This person was constantly moaning in pain.
There was no need to ask, this person must have been injured by the Flaming Winged Bird.
Master Zong did not stay there any longer, because the sounds of fighting could be heard from not too far away. It was clear that the remaining people had caught up and started fighting with the Flaming Winged Bird again.
Grandmaster Zong immediately headed in that direction, with the others hurriedly following behind him.
They quickly arrived there, but this time, three or four injured people were lying on the ground. It was obvious that they were all injured by the flames of the Flamewing Bird.
"Grandmaster Zong, you ? It's here! " Seeing Master Zong and the others coming over, one of them could not help but feel extremely happy.
This person's injuries were obviously relatively light.
With a single glance at these people, Grandmaster Zong could tell why they were injured. It was because their strength was relatively weaker.
"Where did the Flamewing Bird run off to?" Old He asked directly.
"Over there... "They ran over there!" That person hurriedly pointed to his left front.
"Chase!"
After saying this single word, Grandmaster Zong immediately headed in that direction.
The crowd followed closely for a while, but what caused Master Zong's expression to turn ugly was that they were quickly lost.
Grandmaster Zong and the rest could only turn to look at Wang Tongtian.
Wang Tongtian looked at Black Wolf, who was standing next to him. Black Wolf circled around this area for a while before chasing in the right direction.
Grandmaster Zong and the others hurriedly followed behind it.
This time, after chasing for a good quarter of an hour, the black wolf stopped in front of a dense forest. This time, the black wolf once again appeared to be terrified.
Could it be that there was another giant python like the one before? This thought flashed through the minds of Grandmaster Zong and the others.
"Let's go in!" With that said, Grandmaster Zong immediately headed inside.
Naturally, everyone followed closely behind him.
After searching for a while, they still could not find anything.
They could only look at the black wolf.
What made them helpless was that the black wolf was already scared to the point of not being able to move. Its entire body was shivering, no matter how much Wang Tongtian scolded it, it was unable to take another step forward.
"Wang Tongtian, your black wolf is way too weak, isn't it?" Master Zong said with a frown.
This black wolf actually dropped the chain like that at such a crucial moment, how could he not feel depressed?
"Grandmaster Zong, this is a matter of bloodline suppression. There's no other way." Wang Tongtian said with a bitter face.
"Then, can it still sense the Flamewing Bird?" Master Zong asked.
Wang Tongtian shook his head, "With its current state, there's no way to sense it."
"How can we let this go? How can we let such a good opportunity slip by just like that?" A sullen expression appeared on Grandmaster Zong's face.
In the end, he could only give up because no matter how angry he was, he could not change the Black Wolf's state.
"Grandmaster Zong, let's give up this time. Next time, I guarantee that Black Wolf will definitely catch up to us." Wang Tongtian could only reply in this manner.
"Alright, hopefully next time your black wolf will try its best." Master Zong said with a frown.
Saying so, he could only bring everyone and leave this place.
"Grandmaster Zong, it looks like the Flamewing Bird has deliberately lured us to this sort of place." Someone said.
"The same thing happened twice in a row. It must have been deliberately done by the flamingos. The only difference is that we don't know what scared the black wolf the second time." Old He said.
"I can only hope that this situation doesn't happen again. Even if it does, we'll be able to find it and continue tracking it!" Master Zong said with a serious expression.
After that day, there were no more Flaming Winged Birds. At noon the next day, two Flaming Winged Birds appeared in succession, all in different places.
Upon hearing the news, Grandmaster Zong quickly brought Wang Tongtian and the others to chase after the nearest Flaming Winged Bird. This Flaming Winged Bird was also located in the south.
After chasing for a while, they found that they had arrived at the same place as yesterday.
After that, they chased the Flaming Winged Bird and brought it to the second jungle from yesterday.
In front of the dense forest, Grandmaster Zong and the others subconsciously stopped.
"From the looks of it, there's something else that made Black Wolf afraid." Old He couldn't help but say.
"Looks like it." Master Zong said with a frown.
After saying that, he looked towards the black wolf beside Wang Tongtian. When he looked at it, his expression immediately became ugly. This was because the black wolf's body had already started to tremble. It subconsciously hid behind Wang Tongtian.
"That thing is still there!" Grandmaster Zong's frown deepened, then he said fiercely, "Today, my Zong Nameless will definitely find you!"
After he finished speaking, he took the lead and rushed towards the dense forest.
The others followed him.
Just like that, the group of people searched the dense forest. What made their complexions turn ugly was that no matter how they searched, they couldn't find anything. And because Black Wolf couldn't sense anything, they lost sight of the Flaming Winged Bird.
"Could this be the place where the flamingos came from?" Someone suddenly asked this question.
"That's very possible!" Hearing this, Elder He couldn't help but say.
Although there was such a possibility, no matter how they searched, they couldn't find anything wrong with it.
"Could it be that there's some hidden spatial crack here, and it's hidden so deeply that it's hard for us to find it!" After searching for a while, Old He raised this question.
"Yes." Grandmaster Zong nodded. He thought that the possibility of this happening was very high.
"If there really is such a spatial crack, with our abilities, I'm afraid we won't be able to find it. The only thing we can do is have someone who is proficient in this path come here." After which, Grandmaster Zong said this.
After confirming that they couldn't find him, he could only leave with the rest.
As soon as he returned to the Imperial City, he immediately went to find the Emperor and told him the truth about what had happened.
"I can only look for people who are proficient in this field." The emperor nodded and immediately sent for such a person.
There were specializations in the arts, and there were also people in the Ice Mountain Kingdom who specialized in this area.
In next to no time, two middle-aged men who were proficient in this aspect arrived before the Emperor and Grandmaster Zong.
These two were not weak, and were able to trigger the rank 4 Ice Magic Talisman paper. This made Grandmaster Zong more satisfied.
Afterwards, Grandmaster Zong immediately brought these two people, along with Wang Tongtian and the others, to the forest.
Before long, they had reached the dense forest.
Wang Tongtian naturally brought Black Wolf along, but what confused them was that this time, Black Wolf no longer felt fear. Clearly, the thing that made Black Wolf feel fear was not in the forest.
"Could it be that that thing isn't guarding this place at all times?" Elder He asked doubtfully.
"Let's not worry about him for now. Let them investigate if there are any spatial rifts here." Grandmaster Zong said.
With that, he led the group into the forest.
As soon as they entered the forest, the two began to investigate.
Grandmaster Zong and the others were standing right next to the two of them. These two people hadn't yet activated the level five Ice Talisman paper, but they were afraid that an accident would cause them to lose their lives here.
After all, it was not so easy to find a person who was proficient in this path.
