Some people fly and move, leaping and jumping across a forest sea, elegant and agile in the midst of snowy winds, their figures lively, while others break through the air with hastening speed, leaving a white streak across the cloudy sky, exhibiting no small momentum.
In other directions, people from hidden places are rapidly pursuing from behind, intent on seizing what is suspected to be a Fire Feather dropped by a Phoenix!
Even from a great distance, one can see pairs of sharp, fervent eyes!
"Quickly slay this blaze."
Six Colonels’ faces tighten. Together with Niu Bing’s loud shout, everyone’s True Qi surges wildly, and a white light blazes upon the huge Bone Spear, rapid cold quickly freezing the void, solidifying it where the enemy under the straw hat resides.
Following that, Niu Bing lets out a roar, his hands’ veins popping and even his skin tearing as he forces out greater power from the White Bone Spear, and thrusts violently towards the figure under the straw hat.
At this moment, the figure under the straw hat is immobilized by the spreading cold fog, his body rapidly covered with white frost. Out of desperation, he bites down and emits a fierce roar, bringing his hands together suddenly.
The snow and wind under his feet swiftly swirl upward, encasing him.
The next second, there’s a "boom."
The sharp tip of the White Bone Spear forcefully collides with what looks like a white spherical Ice and Snow Shield, then the figure is forced back by the spear’s tip, carving a long trench several dozen yards long in the snowy ground.
Subsequently, with a cracking sound, the Snow Shield shatters, the spear penetrating through, and the figure under the straw hat screams painfully, followed by a splash of bloodstained ice flowers, transforming into a streak of light, darting towards the east in a desperate escape.
Niu Bing, seeing he ultimately did not kill the target and chooses not to chase, urgently shouts. His body drops down and with a straddle, he lands on a swift horse racing like the flowing clouds. Lifting one hand, he shrinks the Demonic Soldiers back, whipping the stiff horse with the other hand, charging southward.
Without stopping for a moment!
The remaining five Colonels, their faces intense like raging fire, also land on horseback, galloping wildly on the snowy plains.
On the side, shadows move frantically in the sky and on the ground, among the snowfields and forests. With more people around, none takes the initiative to attack the six Green Armored Soldiers.
With more people present, there are more hesitations, fearing others might reap the benefits or becoming mere cannon fodder themselves.
But the treasure ultimately shakes people’s hearts, some shout loudly, enticing,
"We can’t let them escape!"
"The matters here will quickly alert that individual from the Ninth Mountain. If that person arrives, none of us will have a chance to play. I think everyone here also holds grievances against him, possessing the treasure by right, why should he seal and own that treasure mountain for himself."
These words travel far across the sky.
Soon, unable to hold back, someone unleashes Spirit Light, shooting towards the six Colonels.
Meanwhile, in the high skies four miles west, atop a three-zhang-tall green-furred strange bird, a middle-aged man with leopard-like eyes and disheveled hair looks downward at the six quick horses below, his eyes full of sharpness and fervor.
The rumored Fire Phoenix.
It’s not a living creature.
When it appears, the world boils over.
That must be the thing the Heir is looking for!
However, that object has fled, and General Mountain has lost its aura, leaving only a feather, which was firstly obtained by the Overseers’ Troops who sealed General Mountain.
That Fire Feather is crucial!
Right now, it’s in the hands of one of these six people!
This man is none other than Jin Taiyuan, who recently lost face considerably, and following the Heir’s orders from the previous days, began gathering information. His ten Guests spread out.
As General Mountain is close to Jinguan City and a significant anomaly recently erupted here catching many people’s attention, it was easy to gather information, and Jin Taiyuan was in charge of watching this area.
He didn’t expect that the mountain would suddenly burst out with such a dazzling heavenly phenomenon.
He vaguely sensed that the True Spirit Heavenly Phenomenon just now might be the thing the Heir was searching for.
"Uncle, how about what I just said?"
Just then, a slightly obsequious voice sounded nearby.
It was none other than the Jin Family’s Housekeeper Liu.
Jin Taiyuan found him useful, hence he kept him close. Despite Housekeeper Liu’s flattery, he actually possessed Profound Body Cultivation, otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to serve as the Jin Family’s housekeeper or maintain authority over others.
And those words that resonated between heaven and earth were just spoken by Housekeeper Liu according to Jin Taiyuan’s instructions. If it were before, this housekeeper, given his nature, would definitely not dare to be disrespectful to the Ninth Mountain, even referring to someone by name, after all, as a mere housekeeper, it was like courting death.
But currently, he had no choice, as the Jin Family originally had two Heavenly Passes, both of whom were being sent to the front lines by that Colonel.
Now the entire Jin Family was commanded by this Uncle, especially since the Uncle was backed by that illustriously positioned Heir.
"Not bad!" Jin Taiyuan smiled and nodded.
Housekeeper Liu was somewhat puzzled, "With Uncle’s Cultivation, why not act directly?" As he spoke, his head slightly tilted towards Jin Taiyuan’s direction, making a snapping gesture.
Jin Taiyuan snorted coldly, "No, I sense three or four presences around here no weaker than mine, I’m not confident. However, I’ve already used the Thousand-Mile Talisman to contact the Heir the first moment, I expect His Highness will arrive very soon."
The main worry being that Martial Vault Devotee!
Housekeeper Liu suddenly understood, yet his face immediately showed hesitation, "Aren’t you concerned that the Colonel might also come over?"
"There’s still two hundred li away, I suppose the Colonel is still dreaming,"
"But I’ve heard that this General has a Divine Skill!"
