A moment later
Ji Pingbo, who was in contact with other town guards, returned.
His face was extremely solemn, and this expression immediately made everyone nervous.
"What's going on?" Gu Mingyue asked in surprise, "Could it be that something happened to the other town guards as well?"
"That's right!" Ji Pingbo nodded and replied, "You won't know until you check. I was shocked. Today, seven garrison guards had accidents. If Senior Brother Wei hadn't asked me to negotiate, I'm afraid no one would have known about it."
"What? Seven?"
"No way?"
Everyone was in an uproar, and their faces changed drastically.
"The news cannot be wrong." Ji Pingbo said seriously, "Among the seven garrison guards, as few as two or three are missing, and as many as seven or eight. A guard from the Holy Land of Litian rashly went out to search for the missing disciples, and as a result, more than a dozen people disappeared one after another!"
"The total number of missing disciples has now reached 53, including two Nascent Soul cultivators. The leaders of the two holy places were very angry when they learned about this. They have just ordered all the garrison guards to be on martial law and implement the most stringent blockade order."
The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became solemn.
Everyone subconsciously took out their identity jade cards to check, and indeed found that the sect's latest emergency mission message had appeared on it, requiring all major garrison guards not to leave their posts without permission, not to go out searching at will, and to carefully seal off their respective garrison areas.
Obviously, this is the highest state of alert.
The entire mining area may be worried about this matter.
Everyone even sensed a few terrifying auras flashing by. It was obvious that the powerful people in the Divine Realm who were secretly guarding the mining area had already started to investigate the whole matter.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this.
If the sky falls, there is someone taller to hold it up. Even the powerful people in the spiritual realm have taken action. What else do they have to worry about? There should be investigation results soon.
But as time went on, everyone soon discovered that something was wrong.
Because the powerful people in the divine realm had been out searching but to no avail, everything in the entire mining area came to a halt. Everyone was looking forward to it, and the atmosphere was extremely weird.
Although we are not suffering from more attacks now, this silent atmosphere still makes people feel tight in their hearts and they can't help but feel nervous.
If someone with bad intentions were to cause trouble at this time, there would probably be big trouble.
However, the two holy places attached great importance to the mining area. Lights flashed on the teleportation array one after another, and high-level monks from two sects were teleported over continuously. It was obvious that they had not relaxed their vigilance at all.
As for Wei Han, he finally ended the search!
There was a hint of weirdness in his eyes, and he frowned as he looked towards somewhere in the deep sea.
Seeing this, Gu Mingyue couldn't help but tell him what had just happened, and asked, "Did your search yield any results? What should we do now?"
"Follow orders and wait and see what happens!"
Wei Han glanced around and found that the mining area formation had been fully activated.
This proves that the top leaders of the two gangs attach great importance to this matter. They must have a specific plan on how to search, so I won't say any more about it for the time being.
However, he did find some clues during the search just now.
“Two seniors!” Wei Han looked at Yun Sanniang and Xu Qing standing beside him, and asked through telepathy, “Do you know of a flat monster that lives in the deep sea, about a hundred feet long? No, no, no, it’s probably not a monster, maybe a fish creature.”
"this?"
The two looked at each other and couldn't help but be surprised.
What does Wei Han mean? Could it be that he discovered something else?
"There are countless species of monsters under the deep sea. What we, the human cultivators, have recorded over tens of thousands of years is only one-tenth or one-twelve of them." Yun Sanniang frowned and said, "The characteristics you described are too few. I really can't think of them for the time being."
"It is a hundred feet long and wide, flat like a disk, dragging a long tail, and its body is transparent and can change color at any time. It is difficult to scan and capture it with spiritual sense!" Wei Han added his judgment word by word.
Yun Sanniang and Xu Qing's faces changed drastically when they heard this.
They all whispered in unison: "Could it be the Skyfish?"
"What is this?" Wei Han was surprised.
"The Skyfish is a very rare fourth-level fish. They are not considered demonic beasts because they are not very intelligent." Yun Sanniang explained quickly, "It is rumored that this is a kind of fish that was born in the deep sea trench. They cannot be seen or checked. They have a strong ability to hide. In the deep sea, they can change into the color of the surrounding area at any time. It is difficult for the spiritual sense to scan them. Even if they swim past you, you won't be able to detect them!"
"That's right!" Xu Qing took over the conversation and said, "Its strength is not that strong, but it has outstanding stealth ability and can release an electric current that is difficult to see with the naked eye. This current can kill prey instantly, or put the prey into a deep paralysis state, and it will swallow it as food without noticing."
"In a special area like the deep sea, you are unlucky to encounter it, and it often appears in groups..."
Xu Qing hesitated to speak!
Wei Han knew what he wanted to say.
There were so many disappearances just now. If it was really because of the Kongming fish, then there must be more than one. It is possible that something attracted them here.
No wonder so many people disappeared just now without causing any big commotion!
No wonder the monsters in this sea area are almost extinct, it’s because they are scared by them.
"If it's really the Sky-Dark Fish, we're in trouble!" Yun Sanniang frowned, "I don't know what attracted them here. We won't dare to step out of the formation until they leave."
"What's the trouble?" Wei Han asked in confusion, "Isn't it okay if we don't go out? We are mining inside the formation, not outside it. If the Kongming fish is outside, other monsters won't dare to come over. Doesn't that save us a lot of trouble?"
"It's not that simple." Yun Sanniang sneered, "What if someone deliberately lured the Kongming fish here? If we give up the patrol area outside the formation, wouldn't that be playing into their hands? Then they can arrange it however they want, and we will be the ones who suffer in the end."
Wei Han opened his mouth but couldn't refute!
Because this possibility cannot be ruled out.
The patrol area outside the formation is considered a buffer zone. If it is controlled by others, it would be very easy to cause other troubles.
Now all the major holy places, the Demon Sect, and the deep-sea monsters are eyeing this place. It is rumored that all parties are eyeing the source crystal veins, so it is never too careful.
So the best option right now is to kill the Kongming fish?
The Kongming fish is notoriously invisible and untraceable. It is extremely difficult to find their traces in the deep sea where visibility is extremely poor and spiritual awareness is suppressed.
"Report it first!" Yun Sanniang sighed and suggested, "No matter whether the young master's discovery is right or not, it's always right to report it."
"Um!"
Wei Han nodded and immediately took out the jade token for communication.
