Chapter 752 Understanding the Situation
Feng Yuxuan is now a level 8 ancient warrior. Although he has not transformed into a cultivator, his fighting ability is not weak.
In fact, ancient martial artists are the closest to practicing Taoism.
Before reaching the innate level, one cultivates the lower dantian. As long as one reaches the king level and opens up the middle dantian, one can practice the cultivation techniques, then it will be a natural progression to transform directly into a cultivator.
The third one was Huo Lian who rushed forward.
The little girl's strength is the strongest among the younger generation. When she moves, a wave of fire and heat appears all over her body.
Lu Wei, Yu Wenshang and Su Ling also wanted to step forward, but were stopped by Jingtian.
The fighting power of these three people is not enough, so if we want them to train, we have to find some people whose realm is not too different from theirs.
On the battlefield, with the joining of Tong Yue, Huo Lian and Feng Yuxuan, the situation suddenly turned around.
After all, Tong Yue’s current combat power is extremely strong, and his fire-based cultivation attack is much more powerful than his previous supernatural attacks. A ray of flame can burn away most of the combat power of a mutant hyena.
Feng Yuxuan's movements were even more decisive. He slashed the beast-man past with a dagger in his hand and a ray of light. The beast-man, who Cindy could not seriously injure, was killed directly with one blow.
The Fire Lotus's combat power is obviously the strongest.
Although she and Tong Yue both have the fire attribute, the lethality of her flames is obviously stronger than Tong Yue's.
There were only a dozen mutants originally, but after three powerful younger ones joined in, they were all killed in less than thirty seconds.
After these beast-men died, they no longer had the energy to maintain their mutant abilities, and they all reverted to human form. Each of them died in an extremely miserable way.
Cindy was a little depressed. She thought she was still too weak!
"It's not satisfying. I haven't used any of my special skills yet." Tong Yue felt a little depressed as he looked at the people around him who were killed.
"They are just outer patrol personnel." Xuehua said with a faint smile.
Snowflake’s meaning is very clear. These dozen mutants are just minions. The truly powerful ones should be in the city.
"Let's go into the city and see how powerful the existence inside is!" Tong Yue waved his hand heroically, pretending to be a general.
Jingtian was speechless. This eldest disciple was becoming more and more naughty.
But this is a good thing. Jingtian doesn’t want all his disciples to be lifeless.
After all, except Jin Long and Long Aotian, the rest of the disciples are children.
Unable to obtain anything from these beast-transformed humans, Jingtian and his group slowly walked into the county town.
Jingtian and others naturally didn't know the name of the small county town abroad.
Even if Su Ling understood the language here, she still didn't know the name of this small place.
Fortunately, when we entered the county town, we saw a dilapidated signpost with the place name in English.
"Po Ke County?"
Jingtian’s English is pretty good, at least he has no problem recognizing words and place names.
"What an ugly name. It would sound better if you remove the middle word." Tong Yue said with a curled mouth.
The other little guys all nodded.
In fact, when it comes to place names, no matter how you hear them for the first time, most people will find them unpleasant to the ear, but they will become more so after you get used to them.
There were very few people on the edge of the county town. The group went in and walked hundreds of meters without encountering another person.
The streets were very messy, with all kinds of garbage everywhere and a foul smell.
After going a little further, Jingtian and others slowed down their pace.
They found that there were people secretly watching them in the houses on both sides.
These people are somewhat different from the previous mutants. Although they have dark skin, they do not have those complicated tattoos on their faces and bodies.
"Did you see anything?" Jingtian asked Xuehua.
"Those hiding are ordinary people. They are very frightened, but they are not entirely afraid of us." Xuehua said.
At this moment, only Jingtian and Xuehua are at the strongest level, followed by Jiuxiao. Since Aoshui does not come out, all problems have to be handled by Jingtian and Xuehua.
This can train Sedum's ability to handle some things.
"If they are not afraid of us, then are they afraid of people from the same city?" Wang Lian was a little confused.
"It's very likely. We'll know the details if we ask." Jingtian nodded, then walked straight towards a courtyard.
Obviously Jingtian wanted to investigate the situation here. Asking someone with special abilities might not give the truth, but it would obviously be better for ordinary people.
When he arrived at the gate of the courtyard, Jingtian sensed that two people in the room quickly lifted a board and hid inside.
Jingtian raised his eyebrows and explored further, only to find that it was just a cellar with no other passages at all.
"Boss, I'll go and catch him."
Although Cindy's perception is poor, as a mutant spirit beast, its sense of smell is extremely sensitive, and its perception is not worse than that of ordinary people at close range.
"You'd better forget it. I was scared to death before you caught the person. Su Ling, you and Yu Xuan go."
Jingtian stopped Cindy and asked Su Ling and Feng Yuxuan to go and bring the person out.
A woman with a child is a relaxing combination, especially since Su Ling understands the language here.
Su Ling nodded quickly, and she and Feng Yuxuan climbed over the wall into the yard.
Jingtian and his group also followed him into the courtyard and waited inside.
In less than a minute, Su Ling and Feng Yuxuan pushed a young black man and woman out of the room.
The black man and woman were both in their twenties. They were dressed in extremely tattered clothes and were very thin. However, the woman's belly looked a little big, as if... she was pregnant!
The two men were pushed in front of Jingtian and others with a look of panic. They knelt down immediately and kowtowed, obviously begging for mercy.
"Sir, the women are pregnant and begged us not to eat them." Su Ling translated from the side.
"Eat them?" Jingtian raised his eyebrows.
The expressions of Tong Yue and others also changed. They had never really experienced cannibalism.
Jingtian had experienced this in Qingyan Town, but when he heard the news, he still found it difficult to accept.
Even though these people were black, they were still human beings, and Jingtian found it difficult to accept that they were being eaten.
Wang Lian stared at the black woman with a strange light in her eyes. She and Jingtian had experienced the same things in Qingyan Town.
"Tell them that we don't eat people, and you will be let go if you answer our questions well." Jingtian said to Su Ling.
Su Ling nodded, and after letting the two men stand up to ease their fear, she started to communicate with the black man and woman in a chattering manner.
Su Ling knew what information Jingtian needed to know, so she didn't ask Jingtian any more questions and just started questioning the two of them.
It seems that this black man and woman are quite cooperative. They basically give a response to whatever Su Ling asks.
It took Su Ling five minutes to stop asking questions, and she seemed satisfied with the results.
"Sir, I have a general idea of what's going on here. There's something really special about this place..."
Su Ling directly told Jingtian and the others the information they were asking about.
"Beast King Sacrifice? Capturing humans for sacrifice?"
In Su Ling's message, everyone paid attention to these two words.
This place is obviously under the rule of those beast-men, and it is usually pretty good.
However, there will be a Beast King Sacrifice ceremony every month, and those beastmen will capture a certain number of ordinary humans and send them away.
As for the fate after being sent away, everyone knows it: being eaten.
Later, Jingtian and his companions also found out that the so-called Beast King was in a valley a few hundred miles away from the county town, called Beast King Valley.
Today is the day of sacrifice. In the past few days, the humans here have been hiding all the time, fearing that they will be chosen as sacrifices.
Why not leave here?
First of all, the humans who were sacrificed were mainly those captured from outside.
Only when there is not enough fish caught from outside will some be selected from within the county to fill the gap.
In addition, anyone who dares to leave the county without permission will most likely be caught by patrol personnel, and their fate will be even more miserable.
There is basically no one who escapes by luck.
Another point is that it would be difficult for these humans to find food if they left the county town. If they stayed here, they would get enough food distribution.
To put it bluntly, these people are equivalent to livestock.
Those who are lucky can live longer, but those who are unlucky may be eaten one day.
