Chapter 261: Great Victory
Ji Tianxing, Yun Yao, Feng Min and others met on the grass outside the entrance of the magic cave.
Everyone looked at each other a few times, and they were relieved to see that they were only slightly injured.
"I don't know if the disciples of the four teams have completed the task at this moment?"
"This is an excellent opportunity. Let's join forces to hunt down the high priest and the witch. Maybe we can kill them today!"
"Let's follow up and have a look, we can't let them escape!"
Hao Meng, Feng Min and Wu Yu discussed a few words, all of them were full of urgency, wanting to rush into the magic cave to chase after the high priest and the witch.
And at this moment, over the jungle a thousand meters away from everyone, there were two screams of '咻咻' signal arrows.
Everyone turned their heads and looked towards the sky, and they all showed gratified smiles when they saw the two signal arrows rising into the sky.
"Very good!"
"They have completed their mission and evacuated the magic cave from other exits!"
"The four teams have all evacuated the magic cave and returned to the meeting place we agreed upon."
Feng Min, Wu Yu and the others were shocked, showing joyful expressions.
Yun Yao frowned and thought about it, then ordered in a deep voice: "Let's not rush to chase the high priest and the witch, first go meet the disciples of each sect, and learn about the battle situation in the magic cave!"
Everyone had no objection, so they followed her through the jungle and rushed to the agreed meeting place.
After a while, Ji Tianxing and others arrived at a clearing at the foot of the mountain.
The disciples of the four sects were waiting in the open space, when they saw Yunyao and others arriving, two of them rushed up to meet them and clasped their hands to report the situation.
"Senior Sister Yunyao, we have completed our mission and successfully evacuated!"
"Fortunately, we have wiped out all the demon guards in the demon cave. Even if there are a few fish that slip through the net, they will be either maimed or injured..."
Hearing the news reported by the two disciples, Ji Tianxing, Hao Meng and others were all uplifted and smiled with relief.
However, the two disciples continued to report: "Senior Sister Yunyao, just now we fought bloody battles and killed hundreds of demon guards."
"However, we also suffered heavy casualties, and almost everyone suffered serious injuries."
"There are six other juniors and younger sisters who died in this battle, and we brought out their bodies as well."
The faces of Ji Tianxing, Yun Yao and the others changed slightly, and they quickly looked at the disciples of the four sects.
I saw that the 30 or so surviving disciples were all blood-stained and disheveled.
The white robes of many were in tatters, stained dark red with blood.
Every disciple was seriously injured. Several disciples had their arms or legs cut off. The injuries were very miserable and they kept groaning in pain.
On the grass behind the disciples, there were still six cold corpses lying side by side. They were the disciples who died in this operation.
Among the six disciples who died, one belonged to Qingtian Sect, one belonged to Xinyue Sect, and there were two each from Liuhe Sect and Danding Sect.
Seeing this scene, the hearts of Yun Yao, Ji Tianxing and the others became heavy, and their joy was also diluted a lot.
However, at the cost of this level of casualties, the disciples of the four sects wiped out hundreds of demon guards in the demon cave.
This is definitely an exciting victory, a real big win!
Seeing that everyone was seriously injured and urgently needed to find a place to heal their injuries, Yun Yao said solemnly: "Everyone, brothers and sisters, thank you for your great help!"
"Everyone has been seriously injured, and there is no time to delay here. Everyone, hurry back to the foothold of the opposite mountain now, and deal with the injuries as soon as possible!"
"The next thing, leave it to the five of us."
The two leading disciples clasped their hands together and saluted Yunyao, then followed her order and quickly left with more than 30 disciples.
The crowd helped each other, took the corpses of the six disciples, crossed the grand canyon between the two mountains, and returned to the opposite mountain peak.
After the disciples had left, Yun Yao, Ji Tianxing and the others rushed into the entrance of the magic cave and continued to chase after the High Priest and Princess Xueyue.
Half a quarter of an hour later, everyone passed through the dark and winding passage and entered the magic cave.
Just entering the magic cave, it was an empty and dark cave.
Holding their swords, everyone walked through the cave on guard, looking around with keen eyes, searching for traces of the High Priest and Princess Blood Moon.
The cave was filled with a strong smell of blood, and there were many corpses of demon guards lying on the ground.
Ji Tianxing counted silently, and there were as many as eighty corpses of demon guards in the cave alone.
However, everyone searched around the cave, but they couldn't find the high priest and Princess Blood Moon.
Yun Yao frowned, looked at the several stone gates around the cave, and said in a deep voice: "There are several stone gates there, and there are many passages and secret rooms behind the gates."
"We will divide into two groups to search, and once we find traces of the high priest and the witch, we will immediately send a signal to notify the other party."
Everyone immediately nodded in agreement and divided into two teams to search.
Yunyao and Feng Min acted together, Ji Tianxing, Hao Meng and Wu Yu were in the same team.
Everyone opened the stone doors around the cave one after another, entered the passage and secret room behind the door, and searched carefully.
Three quarters of an hour later, Ji Tianxing, Yun Yao and the others searched carefully the passages and rooms behind several stone gates.
Everyone retreated to the cave to gather and exchange news with each other.
Hao Meng said to the crowd: "Junior Brother Ji and I have already checked the two stone gates on the left, but we didn't find the high priest and the witch, and we have killed a few who slipped through the net."
Feng Min followed up and said: "We also checked on the right side, but we didn't find the high priest and witch."
Yun Yao frowned slightly, looked at the biggest stone gate ahead, and said, "Only that stone gate has not been checked."
"If I remember correctly, only the High Priest and the Witch can enter and leave that door. It should be the secret place of the Demon Cave."
After finishing speaking, she led Ji Tianxing and others to the tallest stone gate.
The stone door was tightly closed, with a dark red light shining.
The pattern and symbols of the formation are engraved on the door frame, which is obviously protected by the formation.
Yun Yao, Feng Min and Wu Yu joined forces, and within a hundred breaths of time, they deciphered the formation on the stone gate.
After opening the stone gate, everyone held their swords tightly, stepped through the stone gate carefully, and carefully searched every room and secret room.
Soon, a quarter of an hour passed.
The people searched six rooms and secret rooms in a row, but did not find the high priest and witch.
Yun Yao led everyone into the last secret room.
This secret room is relatively large, like a sacrificial place.
There is an altar in the room, and a huge pool of blood.
In the pool of blood stands a statue of a demon god, which is particularly ferocious and terrifying under the light of blood.
There are stone tables, stools and cabinets in the secret room, and hidden compartments for storage are cut on the surrounding walls.
However, the high priest and the witch are not in this secret room.
Everyone searched every corner of the secret room, even the blood pond, but found nothing.
