Chapter 141 Character determines destiny
The group quickly headed towards the Mingdou Mountains.
Although Bei Bei and the others' soul power cultivation is much worse than that of the regular players, because Ma Xiaotao and the others are running on the ground, while the reserve players are flying in the air, they can ignore the terrain and greatly improve their mobility efficiency.
Therefore, they can still keep up with the speed of the starting players.
All of them were soul masters with good cultivation. They traveled at lightning speed all the way, stopping to rest every three hours to recover their soul power, eat something and then continue on their way.
A day later, they finally arrived at the border between the Tianhun Empire and the Xingluo Empire.
Below is a military camp covering a large area.
Dai Yuheng signaled everyone to stop, and went to the military camp alone to borrow several standard military flying soul guides and distributed them to the regular team members.
Then he retrieved information about the "Messenger of Death" from the military camp and set off again, heading straight for the Mingdou Mountains.
On the way, in order to ensure that he could attend the Fighting Spirit Conference on time, Master Xuan also showed off his twelve-turbocharged high-speed flight, making a big splash amid the exclamations of the students.
It was almost dawn, the night was still dark, and suddenly a white light appeared in the dark sky.
The white light left a brilliant tail flame in the sky and landed at the foot of the mountain.
The students endured the physical discomfort caused by the extremely fast flight, and sat down cross-legged as soon as they landed, quickly adjusting their condition.
Elder Xuan glanced at them, took out his wine gourd and took a sip, then said, "Look at what you have accomplished. Xiao Tao, you will be in charge of the next move."
After saying this, Master Xuan disappeared instantly.
Seeing that Master Xuan was leaving like this, Xiao Xiao asked in surprise: "Master Xuan is not going to come with us?"
Ma Xiaotao smiled confidently and said, "According to the intelligence, although the leader of this gang of bandits is an evil soul master, he is only at the Soul King level. With our strength, we are more than enough to deal with him."
Dai Yueheng was also a little proud: "Yes, Xiaotao and I are both Soul Emperors. As inner courtyard disciples of Shrek, if we need the protection of our master to deal with a Soul King-level evil soul master, how can we grow?"
As he spoke, Dai Yueheng glanced at Huo Yuhao intentionally or unintentionally.
Xu Sanshi, Xiao Xiao and the others looked at each other. They could naturally sense that this was Dai Yueheng's previous remark directed at Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao uttered a “huh” and said to Qiu’er and the others as if he was unaware, “Qiu’er, you guys will follow me for a while. Elder Xuan said before that evil spirit masters have strange abilities and cannot be judged by the standards of ordinary spirit masters. Your cultivation is not good enough, so you must be cautious.”
Xiao Xiao, Wang Dong, Ning Tian, and Qiu'er naturally had complete trust in Huo Yuhao and agreed immediately.
Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi saw how serious Huo Yuhao's expression was, and then thought about the gap between themselves and Huo Yuhao.
Since even Huo Yuhao was so cautious, they had no right to be arrogant, so they nodded slightly.
No matter what, it is never a bad thing to be careful when facing those vicious evil soul masters.
Yao Haoxuan laughed: "Little brother, you haven't seen much of the world after all, you can rest assured that we will lead the way ahead."
"Alas, character determines destiny. No wonder he ended up in such a bad situation." He muttered to himself.
At this time, Wang Yan suddenly said, "Yuhao, can't your eyes provide other people with better vision? In a moment, activate this skill to provide assistance to everyone."
Before Huo Yuhao could say anything, Dai Yueheng refused calmly, “No need, Teacher Wang. This is not the first time we have done an inspection mission. We can handle a group of bandits led by a Soul King. Huo Yuhao just needs to take good care of Ning Tian and the others.”
Huo Yuhao gave him a strange look and said with a smile, “Okay, then I’ll watch your performance.” Ma Xiaotao glanced at Huo Yuhao and did not refute Dai Yueheng’s words. She continued, “According to intelligence, the main activity area of this gang of bandits is in the central area of the Mingdou Mountains. Not only is the terrain there complex, but the bandits are also extremely cunning.”
"This is the entrance to the mountain shown on the map. From now on, we can no longer use the flying soul guide to avoid alerting the enemy."
“Dai Yuheng, Chen Zifeng and I will be in the front, 10 meters apart. The control and auxiliary systems will be in the back. Huo Yuhao will be in charge of taking care of Xiao Xiao and the others who have lower cultivation levels. Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi will be the rear guard. Let’s set off!”
Ma Xiaotao simply assigned the responsibilities and led the way.
Chen Zifeng's martial soul is the Soul-Chasing Sword. Thanks to the sharp nature of the Soul-Chasing Sword, his role in clearing the way is particularly evident.
With one sword in front, all the thorn branches were cut off, and with the Soul Emperor-level strength of Dai Yueheng and Ma Xiaotao, a path was easily opened up.
As the sky gradually brightened, they had already gone deep into the Mingdou Mountains.
But after traveling for half a day, they still didn't find any trace of the bandit group, so Ma Xiaotao asked everyone to rest on the spot and recover their spiritual power.
During this period, Wang Yan suddenly left the team and sneaked out.
When Huo Yuhao saw Wang Yan’s leaving back, his eyes moved slightly.
According to the plot in the original novel, after Wang Yan began to survive in the wilderness, it meant that they were very close to the hiding cave of the bandit group.
Huo Yuhao glanced at Dai Yueheng who was sitting not far away, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
The good show is about to begin!
Sure enough, after a while, Wang Yan came back.
"Everyone come here, I have a new discovery."
Everyone gathered over, but the top students in the inner courtyard all looked a little indifferent.
Especially Dai Yuheng and Ma Xiaotao, they even looked down on him a bit.
After all, in their eyes, Wang Yan, who was in his thirties, was just a Soul King, and even had a very ordinary martial soul.
How useful can such a mediocre teacher be?
"I just explored the surrounding situation, coupled with my observations along the way, I have discovered a few things so far."
"There are already Wenlan trees around here. Wenlan trees are a relatively rare species. The heart of the tree can be used as medicine, and the trunk is as hard as iron, making it the most suitable for making various types of furniture."
"Its growth requirements for air are extremely high, and only places with extremely rich vegetation are suitable for its survival environment."
"I once read in an ancient book that where Wenlan trees grow in clusters, the area must be at least fifty miles deep into the dense forest."
"At the same time, the Wenlan tree likes coldness, and its tree heart is very helpful for soul masters who cultivate coldness-type martial spirits."
"According to the intelligence we have obtained, the leader of the bandit group is most likely an evil soul master, and just now, I discovered this."
As he spoke, he took out a piece of tree trunk from his storage soul guide.
There is a cylindrical cavity inside the trunk, as if something has been dug out.
