Chapter 1046: Retreat to Advance

A negligence put the Thunder God in a passive position.

However, Xiao Mian and the Thunder God did not take action again, only because they both noticed that there were latecomers lurking in the eight passages.

The Thunder God naturally detected it through his divine consciousness, while Xiao Mian saw the clues through the feedback of the Divine Mirror and the Spirit-Seeing Eyes - the divine consciousness that Xiao Mian used to kill the Thunder God last time was also thanks to the Spirit-Seeing Eyes, otherwise, he might not have succeeded.

Sure enough, seeing that Xiao Mian and the Thunder God did not seem to have the intention to continue the fight, a burst of applause emanated from a certain passage.

Following the applause, the black-robed Demon Seal walked out.

At the same time, more people walked out of the other passages - Yan Mo, Li Jingnian, Ye Piaoling, Zi Yi Hou, Yu Wushuang, Fu Xigui...

These were still people Xiao Mian knew, and there were more people Xiao Mian did not know.

Obviously, after the breakthrough in the previous period, more and more cultivators successfully passed the test of the Eight-Gate Golden Lock Array and entered the space of this palace and four halls.

"I was a little upset that I didn't get there first! I didn't expect to see such a wonderful fight. It's worth the trip!"

Moyin, smiling.

The others looked at Xiao Mian and Lei Shen with awe, surprise, emotion, and confusion...

Just like Yu Wushuang, looking at Xiao Mian, she was confused.

As early as after hearing that Xiao Mian did not die in Zulongju, Yu Wushuang had thought about going to Chu County to meet Xiao Mian, but in the end, due to the complexity of many things, she failed to go.

I didn't expect to see Xiao Mian again in Lei Peng's demon mansion today. Xiao Mian has grown to a point that Yu Wushuang dare not underestimate...

Fortunately, Yu Wushuang has not wasted these years, otherwise she would be ashamed to see Xiao Mian actually force Lei Shen to retreat.

As for Xiao Mian, his eyes swept over everyone one by one, and after finding that Gui Hai and others were not there, Xiao Mian's eyebrows frowned unconsciously.

But after thinking about it again, he was relieved.

Now, there are only about 20 people entering the space of one palace and four halls. Compared with the total number of people entering the Lei Peng Demon Mansion, it is probably less than half. It is not a bad thing that Gui Hai and others failed to arrive here at this time. Xiao Mian didn't expect that when Gui Hai's impatient scolding came from a passage, and under Xiao Mian's expectant gaze, he saw Gui Hai carrying a ghost-head knife and walked out of the passage with a gloomy face.

"Damn it! Who said that the Lei Peng Demon Mansion is full of treasures? Come out! I promise not to kill you! Except for the passage, there are passages, except for the door, there are doors. I almost got dizzy... Huh? So many people? Good morning, everyone! Brother! Good morning to you too!"

"..., big brother, good morning!"

Seeing Gui Hai waving at him, Xiao Mian had to wave back.

Besides, the passage where Gui Hai appeared was far away from where Xiao Mian was. Just when Gui Hai wanted to come to Xiao Mian's side, a figure blocked Gui Hai in front of him.

Xiao Mian actually recognized that person, it was Mo Tong!

Turning back, seeing that Mo Yin ignored him, Xiao Mian just let it go.

Although Mo Tong was the founding disciple of Wei Changtian, the Demon Emperor of Beiweizhou, and had already condensed his spiritual consciousness, it was hard to say who would win or lose against Gui Hai!

After several years of seclusion in the Xuanwei Cave Secret Realm, it was not only Xiao Mian who had made progress.

Especially under the big locust tree that day, after hearing Ni Dongliu explain the four ways of killing the sword demon by Dugu Jianmo, Gui Hai's combat power was further improved.

"You, are Gui Hai?"

"Who are you?"

The two big guys refused to give in to each other.

When their eyes met, Gui Hai and Mo Tong shouted at the same time.

Then Gui Hai swung his arm, tightly grasped the ghost-head knife, and chopped it over. At the same time, Mo Tong also tightly grasped the giant sword in his hand and slashed at Gui Hai.

These two people are both masters of both magic and body, and are born with supernatural powers.

The swords collided, sparks burst out, and a shocking sound resounded.

Gui Hai and Mo Tong both took three steps back. The ghost-headed knife and Mo Tong's giant sword trembled at the same time, and even the arms of the two people could not help but tremble violently.

This is the best performance of the two people fighting evenly...

Gui Hai and Mo Tong glared at each other. Just when everyone thought that these two big fools would continue to fight until one of them died, the two laughed out loud.

"I am the first disciple of the Demon Emperor of Beiwei Prefecture - Mo Tong! Swordsman Gui Hai! I heard about you when I was in Beiwei Prefecture, but I was always hunting down the holders of blood spirit roots, so I had no chance to meet you. Today, I feel sorry for meeting you too late!"

"I won't talk about these big principles, but I'm determined to make you my friend!"

"Okay! If there is time in the future, you and I can fight!"

"That's it!"

Carrying the ghost-head knife, Gui Hai walked past Mo Tong - the two were only a few feet apart, but they were not on guard at all, as if they were friends for life.

You must know that these two people were fighting to the death just now?

Even Xiao Mian could only watch and laugh...

My elder brother actually made friends with Mo Tong. If I face Mo Tong in the future, won't I have to consider Gui Hai's face?

Fortunately, it was Mo Tong, not Mo Yin!

From then on, until Gui Haixing came to Xiao Mian, no one dared to attack recklessly. Everyone at the scene was discerning. Although Gui Hai and Mo Tong had just fought back, the amazing fighting power they showed made everyone dare not underestimate them.

At this gloomy moment, no one wanted to make an enemy for nothing.

Besides, the swordsman Gui Hai was fine, but Xiao Mian of Nanyue was a problem...

As for Xiao Mian, he suddenly became bolder after Gui Hai stood beside him.

That means: Xiao Mian can now trust Gui Hai with his back.

At the same time, Zheng Tingjian had also shrunk behind the Thunder God, and three or five cultivators gathered around the Thunder God. This is not difficult to understand. After all, among the eight thunder feathers that entered the Thunder Peng Demon Mansion this time, the Thunder Zhen Palace alone got three, so the number of cultivators who entered was naturally the largest.

Looking at the entire space, the forces of all parties are complicated. It will not be easy for Zheng Tingjian to break the ban calmly...

Even if Zheng Tingjian successfully breaks the ban of the Thunder God Palace, how much benefit can the Thunder God and the Thunder Zhen Palace get under the watchful eyes of everyone?

Moreover, Xiao Mian knew very well that to break the Thunder God Palace, he must first break the four side halls. Although he has broken the Feng Heng Palace, there are still three halls that have not been broken.

Xiao Mian is not in a hurry. After all, only Gui Hai has arrived successfully.

The Thunder God is not in a hurry either. After all, the large army belonging to the Thunder Zhen Palace has not arrived yet.

So, everyone went around in the palace and four halls. Although there were occasional frictions, all parties maintained restraint and had no intention of intensifying the conflict.

After all, the prey had not appeared yet, and it would be bad to show one's claws for nothing...

There were those who understood Xiao Mian's character, such as the Demon Seal. Seeing that Xiao Mian was as still as a mountain, they were too lazy to look around, but came to Xiao Mian.

Xiao Mian's aura tightened - it was not that he was afraid of the Demon Seal, but that this old guy had a deep understanding of human nature and understood him like a life-and-death friend.

Okay!

Maybe Xiao Mian was still a little afraid of the Demon Seal...

Just as everyone was wandering around like headless flies, but got nothing, more and more monks entered here through the eight passages.

Seeing Yin Jiansheng and Jing Chu gather around him one after another, Xiao Mian was secretly happy. When he saw Tuoba Lan walking out of the passage, Xiao Mian even went to meet him.

After all, Tuoba Lan is only at the middle level of Jindan now. If he is not careful, he may be attacked by someone. Besides, Tuoba Lan's identity is also very special.

As a descendant of the Tuoba clan, the descendant of the Eight Veins, Tuoba Lan's identity may be crucial in the subsequent game of Lei Peng Yaofu!

Privately, Xiao Mian threw a small porcelain bottle to Yin Jiansheng, and at the same time, through the Lingxi tail feather, he conveyed a message to Yin Jiansheng: Target - Water Solution Hall!

Xiao Mian secretly told Yin Jiansheng how to enter the four side halls, and asked Yin Jiansheng to enter with Tuoba Lan, who had awakened the thunder spirit root. Yin Jiansheng himself is a cultivator with water spirit roots, and with Tuoba Lan's identity as a descendant of the Eight Veins, it seems that as long as he enters the Water Solution Hall, there will be no danger even if he does not gain anything.

Therefore, the group gradually changed their direction and came to the front of the Water Solution Hall.

At the same time, more cultivators gathered around Lei Shen.

Seeing that the time was almost right, Lei Shen led those people to the front of Lei Shen Palace.

"Everyone!" After shouting loudly and attracting everyone's attention, Lei Shen faced Xiao Mian and asked directly: "When I came here last time, there was no one here. May I ask Xiao Mian, the Taoist friend from Nanyuezhou, where did you come from?"

"When I came here, there was no one here, but the palace gate of Fengheng Palace was opened, so I walked around inside..."

"Could it be that the palace gate of Fengheng Palace was opened by Taoist friend Xiao?"

"No! No!"

Xiao Mian just denied it, but did not explain it - anyway, it's useless to explain it!

Believe it if you want, forget it if you don't want!

What can you do to me?

"In that case, I wonder if Fellow Daoist Xiao has made any discoveries? Or has Fellow Daoist Xiao found a way to open the Water Dissolution Palace? Otherwise, why does he occupy the Water Dissolution Palace?"

"Thunder God, you asked a good question! You now occupy the Thunder God Palace. Could it be that you have a way to open the Thunder God Palace? Could it be that the Thunder God Palace is your palace?"

"You!"

"Let's go!"

Just when Thunder God wanted to refute, Xiao Mian suddenly shouted.

Yin Jiansheng and Tuoba Lan had already stood in front of the two palace gates of the Water Dissolution Palace. When Xiao Mian shouted, the two of them input their true essence into the palace gates.

The palace gates opened, and Yin Jiansheng and Tuoba Lan entered the Water Dissolution Palace.

In this way, the crowd was excited and wanted to attack the Water Dissolution Palace.

Some of the brave ones even launched flying swords, seemingly attacking the palace gates of the Water Dissolution Palace, but in fact, they covered Xiao Mian and others in the attack range.

That meant that they wanted to kill the people and the gates at once!

Since Xiao Mian dared to carry out such a sneak attack in front of everyone, he had naturally made full preparations. At that moment, Xiao Mian, Gui Hai and Jing Chu did their best to form a defensive array in front of the huge Shuijie Palace.

Xiao Mian was also unceremonious about the flying sword that flew towards him.

The Xingci Sword chopped it off, and with a crisp sound, the sword light broke...

"Everyone! Xiao is willing to exchange the method of entering the four side halls for the ownership of this Shuijie Palace!" Xiao Mian's words were quite begging for mercy. Now the situation was stronger than the person, and he had no choice but to show weakness. Besides, once Xiao Mian said this, the people who were originally united would definitely fall apart. Who doesn't want to dominate a side hall?

Xiao Mian's seemingly compromising concession allowed him to firmly occupy the Shuijie Palace.

Almost in an instant, several people stood on Xiao Mian's side.

The situation changed suddenly, and Xiao Mian was already in a position of defeat.

"Hmph! Fengheng Hall is empty, Shuijie Hall is behind you, and there are only two side halls left, Huosui Hall and Diyu Hall. How do you want us to divide them?"

"Take it easy, Thunder God! After listening to me, you will know that it is not possible to enter these four side halls by force. You might as well try it!"

"..."

"Okay! Okay! Brother Xiao! You might as well tell us how to enter the side halls first. As for whether we can get in or not, that's our business!"

It was the Demon Seal who came out to smooth things over.

Xiao Mian no longer kept it a secret and told the whole story - after all, everyone at the scene was a hero for a while, and after a long time, they would definitely be able to see through the strangeness.

Just like this Demon Seal, his eyes flickered, and it was obvious that he had doubts...

After listening to Xiao Mian's words, everyone was thinking.

Putting aside Fengheng Hall and Shuijie Hall, to open the remaining Diyu Hall and Huosui Hall, wouldn't it be necessary to have one earth and one thunder or one fire and one thunder monk?

Among the many monks present, there was no shortage of thunder attribute monks, but earth and fire attribute monks were a little hard to find...
