In fact, li xiaonian's strength was only at peak three-star and was still a distance away from four-star. It was just that the power in his body was too overbearing, giving people the illusion that he was a four-star expert.

Even so, when the crowd heard Qiao Fenglin reveal li xiaonian's strength, they still whispered to each other.

I was wondering how strong he was. I didn't expect that he was only a four-star expert. Compared to our Captain, the gap is not small.

tsk, tsk. Just where did this guy come from? he's so mysterious that even Captain Mountbatten has to listen to him.

four-star? I'm only a two-star now. I don't know when I'll be able to become a four-star expert.

……

In the crowd, Lu Coco heard Qiao Fenglin's words and couldn't help but think, " it seems that this guy isn't an Ying himself. An Ying's strength is only one-star. After two years, no matter how strong his talent is, he can only enter the ranks of two-star at most.

Muntbatten gave Qiao Fenglin a warning look, then turned to li xiaonian."Senior, are you sure there's danger ahead? More importantly ... There's only one path in the graveyard. If we take a detour, we'll enter an unexplored area."

No matter how others looked at li xiaonian, Mountbatten didn't dare to show any disrespect. After all, he was the only one who knew that li xiaonian was a member of the demon Slayer Pirates.

The demon Slayer Pirates represented the ruling power of an era. Compared to the eight Mansions, the demon Slayer Pirates had a very low sense of existence. However, they were existences that no one dared to provoke. One had to know that the demon Slayer Pirates were known for their unity. Each and every one of their members was a super genius.

In his mind, li xiaonian might only have the strength of a four-star now, but as long as he didn't die in the middle of his journey, his growth limit would definitely surpass everyone present.

Li xiaonian quietly sensed the forest in front of him.

As the Earth Star Lord, he currently didn't have the true combat power of a Star Lord. As long as his feet stepped on the ground, his perception ability was definitely not comparable to that of ordinary people.

He could sense a large group of unknown monsters lurking in the dark forest ahead. They could be zombies or other monsters.

There were many of them, and many powerful individuals were hidden among them.

Looking at the black demon Manor's elites, who had looks of disdain on their faces, li xiaonian shook his head. perhaps I'm thinking too much. You'll be in charge of the rest of the journey. I won't interfere.

The monster in front of him was very strong, and it gave li xiaonian a feeling that it was going to be fatal. However, he had two six-Star Warriors with him. Perhaps they could handle it, but no one could say for sure.

As for the one-star, two-star, and three-star players, since they wanted to die and become cannon fodder, it was fine if they died.

After a moment's hesitation, muntbatten waved his hand and said, keep moving forward. Scouting team, be on high alert. If there's a situation, remember to report back to me immediately.

whoosh, whoosh, whoosh ~"

The elites of the hidden blade type were all very agile, and they charged forward like ghosts, disappearing into the dark forest. As for the main group, they slowly followed behind.

Creak ~ creak ~

The large group moved forward slowly.

Even though the group looked down on li xiaonian, they still kept the matter in mind since he had warned them about the danger. They looked around vigilantly while they were on their way.

He even took out the surveillance radar from time to time to check the situation in the surrounding area.

After walking ten miles in one breath, there was nothing but dead silence in the surroundings.

This time, everyone couldn't help but ridicule again.

hehe ... That faceless guy really thought that there was some great danger. I didn't expect that he was just a Blabbermouth. Luckily, the captain didn't listen to his suggestion. If we really had to take a detour, I don't know when we would be able to complete this mission.

"He probably said those words to make his presence known."

……

However, just as everyone's words fell ...

Muntbatten's face changed, and he shouted coldly,"Everyone, get ready for battle!"

Just a moment ago, he had lost contact with more than 20 of the scouts he had sent out. In this place, losing contact meant death.

Everyone's face froze, but they still held their weapons tightly and looked around with a serious expression. At the same time, high-illumination equipment illuminated the dark forest.

Exhaling ... Inhaling ...

Exhaling ... Inhaling ...

Everyone was ready for battle. In the quiet forest, only the sound of each other's breathing could be heard.

Muntbatten looked at li xiaonian, who was beside him, and said in a serious tone,"Senior, do you really sense danger? What kind of monster is it?"

Li xiaonian shook his head. my sixth sense is quite strong. I can vaguely sense that there's danger ahead. As for what kind of danger it is, I'm not too sure.

Li xiaonian's perception was several times stronger than that of a six-star expert. No one would believe him if he told them about this. Therefore, he chose to keep it a secret and gave an ambiguous explanation.

"Captain, what's going on?"

One of his subordinates couldn't help asking.

"We lost contact with our Scout Vanguard at the same time without any warning," muntbatten said with a grave expression.

“……”

“……”

“……”

Everyone's expression changed.

The vanguard Scouts might not be very strong, but they were all experts at escaping. If they died at the same time, one could imagine the strength of the monster that attacked.

Qiao Fenglin was silent for a moment before saying," is it possible that they've only entered a special area and can't be contacted?"

However, just as Qiao Fenglin finished his words ...

In the depths of the forest.

Crash ~~

A flock of crows flew out from the forest and surrounded the thousands of people in an instant.

The crow's entire body was dark black, but its eyes were a dull red. Overall, it didn't seem to have any life. Such a monster was clearly dead.

Undead Raven

Strange undead creatures.

[ combat power: ??? ]

……

The undead Ravens did not attack immediately, but everyone's faces turned pale and their foreheads were covered in cold sweat.

A soldier in the logistics team quietly took out a combat strength detector and examined the [ undead Crow ].

Di ...

The detector's value rose crazily. With a 'Peng', the detector's value was too high and it exploded.

The warrior swallowed his saliva and said with a trembling voice, " Captain ... The crow's battle ... Has exceeded the detector's value by 10000 points.

Buzzzzzz!

Everyone's face turned pale.

More than 10000 points was enough to prove that there was at least a terrifying Star Lord-tier monster hidden among the undead monsters.

Mountbatten took a deep breath and said to the strange undead crows around him, Senior Spirit, we've disturbed your sleep. If you have any orders, please let us know. Please let us live.

Since the undead Ravens did not launch an attack immediately, it meant that there was still room for negotiation.

Crash ~~

The crows on the tree gathered together and gradually formed a human shape. A moment later, they fused into an old man with dry skin and dull eyes.

"It's not impossible if you want to live," the old man said in a hoarse voice.

As the old man's voice fell, the surrounding crows once again condensed into a lifeless puppet. The puppet was a burly man holding a battleaxe and wearing tattered and decayed clothes.

The old man pointed at the puppet and said,"this is a puppet I created. If any of you can defeat it at the same cultivation level, I'll let you all leave alive. Otherwise, you'll all die! Of course, you can also refuse now."

As he spoke, the old man stretched out his hand in the air.

A four-star team leader beside Coco flew towards the old man uncontrollably.

Puchi!

&Nbsp; in an instant, the captain's chest was pierced by a dried hand, and a large amount of blood was drawn out. In the blink of an eye, he had become a dried corpse without any signs of life.

The old man licked his lips and said in a hoarse voice, " "If you refuse, he will be your role model."

The team leader of the four-star team didn't even have the chance to fight back against the old man. In fact, he didn't even have the chance to speak. Everyone felt their scalps go numb.

how could ... How could such a powerful monster appear? "

what kind of creature is this old man? he's so powerful. Do we still have a chance to live? "

"I'm done for. I knew it. The simpler the mission, the harder it is."

……

Mountbatten stared at the mysterious old man and said,"Senior, please keep your promise."

After saying that, Mountbatten pointed at an unremarkable one-star Warrior in the group."Gong Yi, go up and meet that puppet."

Gong Yi's face turned pale, and he forced a smile that was uglier than crying. "Captain, I'm only a one-star Warrior. My strength is at the bottom."

"Of course I know that your strength isn't that great," said Mountbatten, his face darkening."But the seniors have said that the puppets used in the battle will have their cultivation base suppressed to the same level as you. "Among the one-star Warriors, your battle prowess is the most outstanding. Whether you live or die ... Go up. If you succeed in the challenge, you will be our Savior. If you fail ... Our black demon Palace will help you take care of your family."

Gong Yi's face turned ashen. He held the soft sword in his hand tightly and said, " "I'll go."

If he could, he really wanted to turn around and run. Unfortunately, military orders were like mountains. He could not run, and he could not run. If he ran, his family would definitely be implicated.

Under everyone's gaze, Gong Yi braced himself and walked to the front of the puppet warrior. He cupped his hands and said,""Please give me your guidance."

Just as the elder had said, the puppet warrior would suppress those of the same cultivation level. The originally violent puppet's aura gradually weakened. In the end, it was equal to Gong Yi's, and it was hard to tell who was stronger.

Whoosh ~

Gong Yi took out the software and his body split into two. He attacked the puppet warrior from the left and right.

The puppet warrior had also unsheathed a soft sword and was now clashing with Gong Yi.

Ding dang ~

Ding dang ~

BOOM!

Crack ~

BOOM!

The puppet warrior was not very strong, but it was more agile than Gong Yi.

Gong Yi realized that he had a chance to defeat his target, his eyes were filled with killing intent,"There's a chance, shadowthorn!"

whoosh, whoosh, whoosh ~"

The two bodies, one from the left and one from the right, stabbed at the puppet's head and lower body at strange angles ...

Seeing that it was about to hit, the puppet turned its body 180 degrees and barely dodged the fatal attack. At the same time, the soft sword gently slashed.

Puchi!

Gong Yi's head was separated from his body, and blood spurted out. The spurting blood was pulled by a force and spun in the air, floating towards the mysterious elder and seeping into the elder's body.

The old man groaned in pleasure as he looked at Mountbatten,"It's obvious that your teammate's strength isn't that great. Arrange for the next person."

Everyone, including Mountbatten, fell silent.

It wasn't that Gong Yi wasn't strong, but that the puppet warrior was cheating. No ordinary person would be able to turn 180 degrees so nimbly.

Gong Yi's death woke everyone up.

They were facing spirits of the dead, not humans of flesh and blood. Everything could not be judged according to the conventional way.

Mountbatten turned to look at his subordinates, and wherever his gaze passed, they would lower their heads, afraid that they would be called to die.

This mysterious undead elder was clearly treating their lives as entertainment. If he wasn't absolutely confident, he wouldn't have suggested such a rule.

He looked around, and to everyone's surprise, Mountbatten stopped looking at li xiaonian and said calmly, " "Senior, although we're the elites of the black fiend mansion, we're still no match for your Demon Slayer Pirate team. Therefore, our lives and deaths are in your hands. Please help us."

At this moment, it would be a lie if muntbatten said that he wasn't angry. Li xiaonian clearly knew that there was great danger ahead, but he didn't stop him. From the beginning to the end, li xiaonian had been watching the show from the side, acting as if it was none of his business.

The demon Slayer Pirates?

The despairing faces of the black demon Manor's elites came back to life once again. Their expressions became somewhat strange, but also somewhat joyful.

"No wonder ... No wonder the captain is so obedient to this guy. He's a member of the legendary Demon Slayer Pirates."

"When did our black fiend Palace get so close to the demon Slayer Pirates?"

I heard that the demon Slayer Pirates are capable of fighting those of a higher level. Although this guy is only a four-star, he's at least a five-star or even higher.

……

Li xiaonian furrowed his brows when he heard Mountbatten's suggestion. He could tell that although he seemed to be negotiating, he was actually giving orders.

Li xiaonian ignored Mountbatten's suggestion and quietly looked at the mysterious old man in front of him, quickly analyzing the situation.

He could sense that the mysterious old man was very strong, but he was definitely not like what the support staff had said, whose combat power had exceeded 10000.

Li xiaonian didn't speak for a long time, and Mountbatten's face darkened."Are the demon Slayer Pirates all so gutless?"

Li xiaonian's eyes brightened up. He said calmly,"Captain Meng, if you trust me, we shouldn't fight among ourselves. Instead, we should work together and kill this old man who has already died once. If I'm not wrong, this old man only has looks. At most, his strength is about the same as yours, or even a little stronger. He's just stalling for time. The more we die, the stronger he'll become."

"Hehe ..."

The mysterious old man revealed a strange smile."Little guy, you're very good at guessing. Since you want to see my strength, I'll fulfill your wish."

&Nbsp; " condense!   the mysterious elder pointed, and a black ball of light condensed at his fingertip.
