On the second floor of Diyan Mountain, the battle on Fire Crow Hill was extremely fierce.

Thousands of treasure-hunting monks swarmed onto the Fire Crow Hill and fought crazily with the Fire Crow in the middle of the hill.[..com]

During the Qi Refining Stage, the monks held spiritual knives and spiritual swords and chopped down the swooping fire crows, or used various spells to blast them into the air.

There are quite a few foundation-building monks among this group of treasure-hunting monks. Although the foundation-building monks can fly with swords, the sky is occupied by fire crows, and they dare not fly. They can only attack the fire crows with weapons.

Although there are cultivators from the Fire Worship Sect supervising the battle at the rear, this group of treasure-hunting cultivators is still very scattered.

Except for the cooperation between the familiar monks in the team, the entire group of monks almost fought independently without any rules at all.

As soon as they fought against the fire crows, the treasure-hunting monks suffered heavy losses, and many low-level monks were burned to death by the blazing fire.

The Foundation Establishment monks were full of resentment, but when they saw the leader of the Fire Worship Sect, Xu, standing not far from the hill watching the battle, they could only endure it and dared not speak out. To them, the Golden Core monks were

A terrifying existence that is impossible to contend with.

They did not dare to offend the Golden Core cultivators of the Fire Worship Sect, so they could only fight with the fire crows.

But the strange thing is that the fire crows also seem to be in some confusion. The entire fire crows are divided into several groups, and under the leadership of several fifth-level fire crow leaders, they fight against the treasure-hunting monks. The chaos of the fire crows makes their

The strength has also been weakened a lot.

"There is no Fire Crow King in this group of Fire Crows?!"

Headmaster Xu whispered to himself, his eyes were like torches, and he immediately saw something was wrong with the fire crows.

Fire crows are a race of low-level monsters with extremely high intelligence. Generally, there will be one most powerful fire crow king in the fire crow group, who leads the entire fire crow group. But among the thousands of fire crows in front of us, there is no fire crow.

King, there are only a few fire crow leaders with similar strength. Now the entire fire crow group has split into several groups.

"Master, these fire crows are weaker than expected. Do you want your subordinates to take action to wipe out these fire crows and rescue the young master?"

A confidant of the foundation-building monks behind him said.

"No rush. Use these fire crows to consume as much strength as possible from these treasure-hunting monks!"

Headmaster Xu asked with an expressionless face, "Have the exits of various passages in Diyan Mountain been sealed?"

"Reporting to the leader, Senior Brother Ma just sent someone back to report that the three passages have been sealed. Each passage is guarded by five foundation-building monks. Everyone is only allowed to enter but not to leave. The monk in the factory was shocked.

He quickly whispered, "Master, are you really going to take action and kill all the monks later?"

"Let's see how the battle goes."

Leader Xu pondered.

He brought hundreds of monks from the Fire Worship Sect here, including forty or fifty foundation-building monks, and the rest were Qi-refining monks.

There are a lot of treasure-hunting monks on the first and second floors of Diyan Mountain, no less than two thousand in total. And among the more than two thousand treasure-seeking monks, there are no less than thirty or forty foundation-building monks.

The Fire Worship Gate doesn't have many advantages.

Even if he takes action personally, he can only defeat this group of treasure-hunting monks. It is not an easy task to kill all the more than 2,000 monks without leaving any trace. These treasure-hunting monks are not beasts and will sit still.

Let the Fire Worshipers come and kill.

If it really succeeds, it will be great. The Fire Worship Sect can eliminate dissidents, monopolize the large spiritual land of Diyan Mountain, and gain a huge fortune.

Loose cultivators have nothing to fear. Even if there are monks from the Nine Great Immortal Sects tracking down, the Fire Worshiping Sect can still blame everything on the Fire Crow Group, claiming that the Fire Crow Group caused a disaster and killed all the treasure-hunting monks here.

.

If a small group of monks rush out of Diyan Mountain and escape, and the Fire Worshiping Sect massacres fellow monks in Diyan Mountain is leaked, this will definitely trigger public outrage and make the Fire Worshiping Sect become a notorious cultivating evil sect.

Being attacked by the Nine Immortal Sects would probably be a catastrophic disaster.

The risks here are too great.

Leader Xu was also hesitating whether to take action or not.

If the huge group of fire crows and the treasure-hunting monks in front of them have a fierce battle, both sides will suffer losses, and the treasure-hunting monks will suffer heavy casualties. The Fire Worship Sect has an absolute advantage and can encircle and annihilate the remaining treasure-hunting monks, so it is the best time to take action.

Fire Crow Hill, hundreds of caves.

Deep in one of the caves.

Ye Chen was meditating when his ears suddenly moved slightly. He vaguely heard the faint sound of groups fighting in the distance outside the cave.

The sounds from the outside world can be transmitted deep into the cave, which shows the intensity of the battle.

"Reinforcements are coming?!"

A surprising thought flashed through Ye Chen's mind.

Xu Wei, the young master of the Fire Worshiping Sect, once said that it would take a month for the Fire Worshiping Sect's reinforcements to arrive. After calculating the time, it turned out that after more than a month, the Fire Worshiping Sect's reinforcements should have arrived.

Unless the Fire Worshiping Sect is not interested in Diyan Mountain at all and does not take the life and death of the young sect leader seriously, then they will definitely come to the rescue.

They should not be reinforcements from the Tianxu Immortal Sect.

Tianxu Xianmen sent five patrol envoys to the Ulan Empire. He was trapped in Diyan Mountain on the border of Ulan. The other four brothers were all in the hinterland of the imperial capital of Ulan Kingdom. Tianxu Xianmen should not know the location yet.

I don’t know the specific situation of Yanshan, let alone that he is trapped here in Diyanshan. He will definitely not send people here in large numbers. Besides, the distance from Tianxu Xianmen to Diyanshan on the border of Ulan is a bit far, and the distance is not that big.

Come on, it won't come until two or three months.

No matter which fairy sect it is, as long as the reinforcements come.

Ye Chen thought for a moment, stood up, moved away the huge rock blocking the cave, held a low-level flying sword weapon in his hand, and walked out along the cave passage.

Ye Chen soon saw other monks in the cave.

The treasure-hunting monks who were trapped in various caves heard the shouts of killing from the outside, and one after another came out of their hiding places, looking at each other in surprise.

"Are reinforcements coming?"

"Let's go out and take a look!"

Most of the monks who survived being trapped in the cave for more than a month were in ragged clothes. After fighting the fire crows for nearly a month in the cave, all kinds of supplies were almost exhausted. Their bodies were covered with scars, and their clothes were stained with blood and dirt.

The beggar is still embarrassed.

If there were no reinforcements a few days ago, they would definitely fight over each other's supplies. But now that reinforcements are coming, they don't have to kill each other.

Soon, the treasure-hunting monks came out of the cave.

The living monks came out of the cave and saw the treasure-hunting monks all over the mountains and fields outside fighting with the large group of fire crows. Their faces couldn't help but reveal joy.

There are only about twenty people, five of whom are foundation-building monks.

The monks looked at each other, shocked and sighing.

More than a month ago, more than 200 monks besieged the hills of Huoya Mountain and were trapped in the cave of Huoya Mountain. Now there are only about 20 of them. The monks who survived after escaping from death were killed by Huoya Mountain.

More than 90% of them were killed, almost all of them were killed or injured.

Fire Crow Hill was full of corpses, and the firefight was extremely brutal.

Xu Wei, the young master of the Fire Worship Sect, came out of the cave with a somewhat gray face. There were only less than five or six monks left beside him.

"father!"

Xu Wei, several monk guards, left Fire Crow Hill and flew to the vicinity of the hill. With a bit of shame on their faces, they paid homage to Master Xu.

He was sent by the Fire Worship Sect to preside over the excavation of Diyan Mountain, but ended up being trapped underground in the cave. Instead, he needed the leader of the Fire Worship Sect to personally bring a large group of monks to rescue him. This was really embarrassing. The Fire Worship Sect disciples looked at him like this

The young sect leader's eyes were filled with a bit of ridicule.

Headmaster Xu snorted coldly and said nothing. He didn't even look at Xu Wei who was prostrating on the ground. He was obviously very dissatisfied.

"Master, the young sect leader sent people to get through the second floor of Diyan Mountain and discovered that the Diyan Mountain is huge. This is a great achievement. Although there were some mistakes afterwards and got stuck in the Fire Crow Mountain, the flaws cannot be concealed. The merits are great.

It’s worth it.”

A foundation-building monk said quickly.

Xu Wei couldn't help but glance at his father's confidant monk with gratitude. His father was angry and needed someone to help reduce his father's anger.

"Okay! No need to explain."

Leader Xu shook his head.

Of course he would not really punish Xu Wei, he would only be angry, but even if he was angry again, he would still have to personally bring people to rescue him.

The embarrassment was just a small matter. What really disappointed him was the fierce battle between thousands of treasure-hunting monks and nearly a thousand fire crows. Because the Fire Crow King was nowhere to be seen, several fifth-level fire crow leaders were among the treasure-hunting monks.

After dozens of foundation-building monks joined forces to kill them, the fire crow group began to become unusually scattered without a leader.

The fire crows lost their group advantage, and the monks clearly had the upper hand. Casualties were greatly reduced. It was only a matter of time before the fire crows were defeated. This large group of fire crows alone could not significantly weaken the strength of the treasure-hunting monks in Diyan Mountain.

He had previously considered killing all the treasure-hunting monks in the cave, but he did not dare to give the order easily. He was still wavering and unable to make a final decision.

Half a day later.

The fight between the treasure-hunting monks and the fire crows on the second floor of Diyan Mountain gradually subsided, and the fire crows were wiped out. In this battle, the treasure-hunting monks only paid the price of more than one or two hundred monks, and the remaining number was still quite large.

.

The strongest group of fire crow demon birds entrenched on the second floor of the Diyan Mountain cave were wiped out. The remaining demon beasts were weaker, scattered, and easy to deal with. There was no need for large groups of monks to be dispatched.

Ye Chen left the cave in Fire Crow Hill and soon left the second floor of Diyan Mountain and headed to the first floor. Those monks who were in the early stage of Qi refining who did not dare to enter the second floor stayed on the first floor.

He didn't want to deal with the monks from the Fire Worshiping Sect. The Fire Worshiping Sect had occupied the spiritual land that originally belonged to the Tianxu Sect, and even tried their best to cover up the news here. Sooner or later, there would definitely be a conflict with the Tianxu Sect over this land of flames and mountain light.
