Chapter 221
Everyone obeyed and walked carefully to the holy spring to get water. Gu Shihan took the lead in taking out a special container and filled it with the required amount of holy spring water. The others followed suit.
The holy spring water finally fell into the hands of Gu Shihan and others, but before the smiles on their faces could fully bloom, they suddenly felt a powerful and irresistible force sweeping over like a gale.
In the blink of an eye, several people were thrown away like kites with broken strings.
"Ah! It hurts!" Wen Xin couldn't help but scream. She felt as if all the bones in her body were falling apart. Others were also in a state of distress, groaning in pain.
After finally getting up from the ground, Gu Shihan and the others looked around hurriedly, trying to figure out where they were.
However, the unfamiliar scene before them made them all look confused, and they all asked in unison: "Where is this?"
After thinking for a while, Gu Shihan quickly called out Xingbai and said, "Xingbai, go check the situation and see where we are now."
After receiving the order, Xingbai immediately spread out his body and shuttled around quickly like a flash of lightning.
Not long after, it returned to the crowd and said solemnly: "Hanhan, I know a thing or two about this place. This is the famous Wuwang Forest. Your luck this time is really not good. This is a notoriously dangerous place. Anyone who can appear here is either a vicious demon, a sinister and cunning ghost, or someone who has committed heinous crimes. So everyone must be extra careful!"
Hearing Xing Bai's words, Situ Tinglang on the side couldn't help but frowned, and muttered to himself thoughtfully: "Wuwang Forest? I once heard someone mention something related. It is said that the mysterious Shadow Pavilion headquarters is hidden here. I didn't expect that we would be so unlucky to accidentally come to such a dangerous place!"
"No way, isn't the Wuwang Forest in the first level of the immortal world? Have we come to the immortal world? Doesn't that mean we have left the mortal world? What is going on?" Mo Jian's face was full of suspicion, his brows were tightly furrowed, his heart was full of confusion and surprise.
Mo Jian on the side seemed quite calm. He crossed his arms and said calmly, "So what if it's the Immortal Cultivation World? Since you're here, just accept it calmly. Besides, we are not the kind of people who can be bullied."
Hearing this, others echoed it.
"Yes, no matter where we are, we have the ability to survive."
Xing Bai rolled his eyes and said, "You better be careful. He is an immortal and you are just mortals!"
"Xing Bai's words made everyone silent. Just as everyone was discussing, a black shadow suddenly flashed across the sky.
The black shadow was extremely fast, and it flashed across the sky in an instant like lightning, and at the same time, a creepy and eerie laughter was heard.
When everyone looked closely, they realized that they could not see through the black-clothed man's cultivation level. Seeing that he could fly in the air, he was probably an immortal.
The man in black had a fierce look on his face and cold eyes. He shouted at everyone fiercely: "Hand over the holy spring water quickly if you know what's good for you, or today will be the day you die!"
Faced with the fierce enemy, everyone did not dare to be negligent and quickly approached each other, forming a tight circle with their backs against each other.
Everyone had a solemn expression, staring intently at the uninvited guest in front of them, holding their weapons tightly in their hands, ready to fight the enemy at any time.
Gu Shihan's heart was moved. When did this person keep an eye on him and his group? Why did he know about the Holy Spirit Spring? What was the trick?
Gu Shihan sneered, "What is the Holy Spirit Spring? We have never heard of it!"
"Oh! You still dare to quibble, I am not so easily fooled! Thousands of years ago, our master had already carefully arranged the powerful tracking mirror light array on the Tianshan Mountain. You can successfully arrive here, all relying on the power of the master's teleportation array. So, your every word and action, every move, can not escape the master's eyes! Be smart and hand over the things quickly, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless, and let you taste what it means to be worse than death!" The man in black said with a cold face, and his words revealed a strong threat.
"Hmph! Stop trying to scare people here. Who's afraid of who? If you have the guts, start fighting now. Don't be so fussy and block our way!" Situ Tinglang showed no sign of weakness. With his eyes wide open, he shouted at the man in black.
The man in black snorted coldly, raised his right hand with a cold look, waved it lightly, and made a gesture.
In an instant, nine humanoid puppets appeared beside him. After receiving the order, the puppets quickly dispersed, formed a tight encirclement, and pounced towards Gu Shihan and his companions.
It happened in a flash. Mo Yu shouted in a low voice, "You've come just in time!" Then he took the lead and rushed towards a puppet who was coming towards him like an arrow.
In the blink of an eye, the man and the puppet had come into close combat, and they were fighting each other in an instant. For a moment, the flashes of swords and sabers were intertwined, and sparks flew everywhere.
On the other side, Gu Shihan took advantage of the chaos and quietly handed the Holy Spring Water to Xing Bai beside him, and whispered in a low voice: "Xing Bai, this Holy Spring Water is very important, you must preserve it well.
It was really frustrating for everyone. The Holy Spirit Water could not be put into any storage magic weapon, and even into any space. So everyone had to give it to Gu Shihan and let her keep it.
Fortunately, Gu Shihan’s robe was a space product and had an inner belt to hold it, otherwise he would have to hold it in his hands.
As time went on, the fierce battle became more and more intense. Both sides fought back and forth, neither side gave in, and the fight was difficult to resolve.
Gradually, everyone began to feel overwhelmed and it became increasingly difficult to cope.
At this critical moment, Gu Shihan had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and suddenly remembered the mysterious jade pendant that Fairy Lingyue had given him. She said that it contained other powerful abilities that had not yet been discovered.
She concentrated her mind on communicating with the jade pendant, and in an instant, the jade pendant burst into a burst of strong light, temporarily forcing the enemy back. Taking advantage of this gap, Xingbai quietly slipped into the dense forest next to her.
The man in black was furious when he saw this and attacked Gu Shihan himself. Gu Shihan gritted his teeth and fought back, dancing the Seven-Star Silk Sound Sword in his hand tightly.
Just when the leader of the men in black thought he was about to succeed, a melodious flute sound came from afar. The man in black's face changed drastically, he waved his hand, put away the puppet and fled in panic.
