When the fire started on Longhu Mountain, Dustin also received the order to attack.

He immediately led a team and began to sneak into the forbidden area of ​​Longhu Mountain according to the original plan.

Because of the large-scale invasion of the Temple of the Gods, Longhu Mountain was in a mess at this moment, putting out fires everywhere.

As a result, the defense of the forbidden area in the back mountain was very empty, and some regular guards were all transferred away.

Only one mountain was left, standing there alone.

Of course, Dustin did not underestimate the arrangement of Longhu Mountain.

Even if there were no guards guarding it, not everyone could break into the forbidden area of ​​Longhu Mountain.

After all, in terms of formation attainments, Longhu Mountain is also among the best in the world.

When Dustin led people to the back mountain, two other teams had already arrived in advance.

These two teams were some external personnel hired by the Temple of the Gods, most of whom were evil demons.

Their character may not be guaranteed, but their strength is definitely good.

In order to avoid exposing their identities, everyone in this operation wore masks.

Dustin's team members all wore red ghost masks, and the other two teams were black and white.

In addition to the masks that concealed their identities, each person had a special badge representing the Pantheon.

This badge was used to determine whether they were enemies or friends.

The leader of the black-faced mask was an extremely burly man with two purple-gold hammers inserted on his waist. His eyes were wild and his aura was strong. He was not a good person at first glance.

The leader of the white-faced mask was an old man with a hunched back, gray hair, withered hands, and a few heavy coughs from time to time.

Although he looked like he was dying and would die at any time, the people around him showed him extraordinary respect.

He was obviously of good status.

"Old Ma, there is another team coming. Why don't we let them explore the way first?"

The burly man wearing a black-faced mask whispered to the hunchbacked old man.

The two of them had already met in advance and had some friendship.

After the exploration just now, they found that there were many formations and restrictions in the forbidden area. If there were no people who were proficient in Qimen Dunjia, it would be easy to die.

When they were hesitating whether to go in, Dustin arrived with the team to support.

The burly man naturally wanted to let him explore the way.

"Good idea, let that guy try first." The hunchbacked old man nodded.

As the saying goes, it is better them than me. Although everyone has the same goal, they can barely be called allies.

But in the face of danger, the so-called allies are just stepping stones.

"Brother, why are you here just now? We have been waiting for you for a long time!"

The burly man changed his cold whisper and greeted Dustin very enthusiastically, as if he was meeting an old friend again.

"Are you waiting for me?"

Dustin looked around and spoke calmly.

"Of course!"

The burly man smiled and said, "The mission of our two teams is to assist you in the treasure hunt in the mountains. There is no time to lose. Go in quickly and we will support you."

"Thank you for your hard work."

Dustin nodded slightly and did not refuse.

"No, no, we are all allies. You are welcome."

The burly man was enthusiastic on the surface, but sneered in his heart.

He thought he would have to spend some time talking, but he didn't expect that the man in front of him was a fool. He didn't doubt it at all and agreed directly.

It was really stupid.

"You all follow me closely, don't fall behind."

After Dustin turned around and gave a warning, he walked straight into the mountains.

With his eyesight, he could naturally see that there were all kinds of forbidden formations around here.

He knew exactly what the burly man was thinking. He just wanted him to be a scapegoat to explore the way.

Unfortunately, the other party underestimated him and the forbidden formation of Longhu Mountain.

When Dustin led the team into the forbidden area, a thick fog suddenly appeared around the mountain.

The thick fog came very suddenly and could not be dispersed. Even if it was pushed away with palm wind, it would quickly gather.

Under the cover of the thick fog, the surrounding scenery had completely disappeared, and it was impossible to tell the direction.

Everyone's line of sight was only three meters away.

The most terrifying thing was that the thick fog actually had the effect of shielding perception, and even the sound became extremely weak.

Even if you shouted loudly, it would be difficult for people ten meters away to hear.

"This thick fog is so weird, could it be some kind of formation?"

"I can't tell the direction anymore, we won't be trapped here, right?"

"The forbidden area of ​​Longhu Mountain is no less than a dragon's lair, everyone be careful and don't fall behind!"

"..."

After walking for a while, they still couldn't get out of the thick fog, and many people were already nervous.

Anyone who is not stupid can find that something is wrong around them. This thick fog that cannot be dispelled is equivalent to a maze.

If they cannot find the right way out, they will be trapped here forever.

At this moment, behind Dustin.

The burly man and the hunchbacked old man also led the team into the formation.

At first, they planned to let Dustin lead the expedition so that they could reap the benefits.

But after entering the mist formation, they were stunned in an instant.

The surrounding vision was blurred, the perception was blocked, and even the direction could not be distinguished.

Even before they knew it, they had completely fallen behind and could not even see the shadows of Dustin's team.

For a while, they were in a dilemma. - Ton

Interception

Li Guanglong’s fingers gently stroked the ornate box, the chill of its silken surface seeping into his fingertips, yet it could not mask the damp sweat pooling in his palm. He glanced at Murong Xue, who was locked in a drinking contest with Batu. Murong was tilting back his head, draining a large bowl of amber-colored liquor. His Adam’s apple bobbed as he swallowed, and in the corner of his eye he cast a fleeting glance toward the copper kettle in the corner of the igloo. That was where they had hidden the prepared knockout drug --- brewed from a poisonous herb of the icefields that gave off a sweet aroma. Once mixed into strong liquor, it was nearly impossible to detect. “Leader Batu truly has a mighty capacity for drink!” Murong Xue slammed his empty bowl down on the table, sending ice shards scattering. “This ‘ice-burn’ liquor cuts like a blade. Ordinary men collapse after three bowls, yet you remain unshaken. Truly worthy of being called the eagle of the snowfields!” Batu r...

Frozen Wasteland

The ice sculptures shimmered with a cold light in the biting wind, the soldiers’ twisted faces sealed inside the crystalized frost, as if still crying out from the agony of being frozen alive. Li Guanglong stared at those figures, his Adam’s apple rolling a few times as he forced down the tremor in his chest. He raised a hand to rub his still-stiff arm. The spot that had been swept by the white mist earlier was still faintly bruised with purplish-blue, the chill seeming to seep deep into his very bones. “Your Highness, that spirit deer carries a poisonous cold beyond imagination.” Wan Zhong leaned on his blade as he walked over, the wound on his lone arm having split open again from the cold. Blood seeped through the bandages, dripping scarlet dots onto the snow. He gazed toward where the deer had vanished, his eyes full of dread. “We’d best hold our camp steady for now, and not recklessly provoke the creatures of this island again.” Li Guanglong nodded silently. His earlier ...

Seeking Medicine for a Father

When Li Weimin’s decree was issued, reactions across the factions varied. At that moment, Li Wenxing was in his study, weighing the pros and cons of the recent trip to Southern Frontier. Although he hadn’t stood out much, compared to Li Guanglong and Li Juntang, he was still the more capable one. But this minor advantage clearly wasn’t enough to change the overall outcome. Just then, Qian Jin rushed in and reported, “Your Highness! A message from the palace --- His Majesty’s condition has worsened, and he has only a short time left. He has issued a special decree: any royal family member who can journey to Penglai Island and retrieve the elixir will become the future crown prince!” “Future crown prince?” Hearing this, Li Wenxing’s spirits lifted immediately. But soon after, he frowned. He had, of course, heard of Penglai Island --- but only in legends. Whether it truly existed in the East Sea, and whether it held any elixir that could extend life, remained unknown. ...
