Chapter 343: Lured into a Trap

The young man looked up at Shi Mu with a look of hesitation in his eyes.

"I don't have time to waste with you, if you don't say it, you will see the end!" Shi Mu said with a hint of impatience on his face.

"I said, can you promise to let me go?" said the young man, gritting his teeth.

"I have no interest in your life. Shi Mu said.

When the young man heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief and said:

"We received the task of the sect to pick up a convoy. There are images of you in the mission, and it is possible to meet you......"

Before he could finish speaking, the ground flashed yellow, and a large area of sharp earthy yellow light arrows suddenly drilled out, stabbing densely towards the young man.

Shi Mu was startled, and with a wave of one hand, several fireballs flew out and met those yellow light arrows!

Boom!

The arrows of light were scattered under the fireball attack.

It's just that these light arrows appeared too suddenly, and they were too close to the young man, and although Shi Mu reacted extremely quickly, a small half still penetrated the man's body.

The young man let out a loud cry, and his body fell limply to the ground, and the pupils of his eyes immediately dilated.

Shi Mu's eyes flashed with golden light, and he suddenly turned around and looked around.

"Stone, in the north!" Cai'er hovered in mid-air, and her voice sounded in Shi Mu's heart.

Shi Mu suddenly looked in the direction of the north, and a gray figure was jumping out from behind a boulder a hundred zhang away, and swept towards the distance with great speed.

"Where to run!"

Shi Mu let out a low snort, turned his hand and sacrificed the green jade shuttle, held him and Zhong Xiu up, turned into a cyan rainbow, and chased after the gray figure.

Judging from the mana fluctuations emanating from the gray figure, this person should be a star-level warlock, and he doesn't know what spell he has cast at this moment, and his speed is quite amazing.

This person seemed to be very familiar with the terrain of this valley, and specially found some narrow and remote paths, or paths with many obstacles, and jumped from time to time to change directions, making Shi Mu's flying spirit weapon unable to exert its speed advantage.

However, there is Cai'er looking down in mid-air to explore the way, and this person's trick is in vain after all.

Shi Mu and the others chased closer and closer, and saw that they were only more than ten zhang away from the man.

The cold light flashed in Shi Mu's eyes, and with a wave of one hand, a golden sword light flew out, and in a flash, three sword rays appeared, slashing towards the gray figure.

Seeing that he was about to be cut off, a gray light suddenly appeared around the gray figure, and then the whole person turned into a blurred gray shadow, passing through the sword in a dangerous way, and then turned around, and flew into a small valley on the side.

Shi Mu snorted coldly, and the cyan shuttle under his feet lit up, turned into a blue shadow, and flew in.

"Stone, be careful, you can't enter!" At this moment, Shi Mu's voice sounded in Shimu's heart.

His face changed, it was too late to stop the long shuttle, a flower in front of him, the surrounding scenery changed greatly, and a layer of yellow light curtain appeared out of thin air above his head and around, enveloping the two of them inside, and then a faint pressure came out of the surrounding light curtain and squeezed towards the two.

"Formation!" Shi Mu's face changed, and with a wave of his hand, he put away the cyan shuttle, and Zhong Xiu and the two fell to the ground.

The yellow light curtain looks extremely thick, and the yellow mist is so thick that you can only faintly see the situation outside from the inside.

However, Shi Mu didn't need to look, through the outside Cai'er is field of vision, he could see the situation outside the formation.

He hurriedly asked Cai'er to stay away from the valley so as not to be discovered, after all, Cai'er had almost no combat ability.

Outside the formation, a gray-robed man waved his hands and emitted yellow rays that disappeared into the formation.

Around the circle, at some point, there were five other Stygian Moon Sect Warlocks in gray robes, holding jade cards, array flags and other things, and they also chanted incantations in their mouths.

As a few people cast spells, the earthy yellow formation worked, condensing into a huge egg-shaped light curtain, enveloping Shi Mu and the others inside.

The golden light in Shi Mu's eyes flowed, and he looked around, and suddenly took in the small runes that appeared and circulated in the surrounding magic circle.

Although he has a limited understanding of the magic circle, he has a deep understanding of the talismans, after all, the magic circle is nothing more than the intricate talisman engraved on the ground, and the two have the same root and origin.

After his observation, this array should be just an earth-attribute trapped array, except for being stronger, there are no other attack characteristics, as long as it takes some time, he is sure that he can break it.

Wait, take some time......

A flash flashed in Shi Mu's heart, and he understood the purpose of these people.

At this moment, Zhong Xiu's voice sounded:

"Brother Shi, this formation should be a pure trapped and forbidden formation, and it has no killing ability. ”

"Yes, these people weren't meant to kill us in the first place. The man in gray just now should have deliberately lured us here and trapped us with this formation. Shi Mu said.

"In other words, the Floating Cloud Convoy should be nearby at the moment, they are trying to buy time for the convoy, and once the convoy enters the Valley of the Wind, things will be in trouble. When Zhong Xiu heard this, his face changed slightly, and then he also understood.

"Hurry up and break the formation, maybe you can catch up!" Shi Mu said in a deep voice, pulling out the meteorite black knife on his back with his backhand.

Zhong Xiu nodded and waved his hand to take out the white jade harp.

The black light on Shi Mu's chest shone brightly, and he completed the totem transformation in an instant, holding the knife with both hands, urging the true qi in his body to frantically inject into the blade.

However, the next moment, his face changed.

After these true qi were injected into the Meteorite Black Knife, the Black Knife did not have the slightest special reaction, and it did not light up the previous crystal sword as expected.

Shi Mu looked stunned, a little stunned, he wanted to try to use the black knife ability like he had done before against the corpse Mo Yunyang, and broke out of the formation in one go, but it didn't get his wish.

On the other side, Zhong Xiu had already begun to play the guqin, and with the crisp sound of the qin, blue ripples like water ripples emerged, and turned into blue spears and rushed towards the yellow light curtain.

Clusters of bright yellow-blue light appeared one after another on the surface of the circle, causing the yellow light curtain to begin to vibrate.

"Work harder, trap them!" Outside the light curtain, the gray-robed man shouted when he saw the change in the magic circle.

Then the aura flashed behind his head, and four points of starlight phantom appeared, and the movements in his hands immediately accelerated a few points, and one or two points of starlight appeared behind the heads of several people around him.

Under the joint efforts of the six star-rank warlocks, the circle was immediately stabilized.

In the magic circle, after Shi Mu tried several times, the black knife in his hand still didn't have any special reaction, and he couldn't help frowning.

"Was that success just a coincidence?"

Shi Mu's thoughts turned sharply in his heart, but he immediately suppressed the anxiety in his heart, now is not the time to be obsessed with this matter.

He let out a loud shout, and immediately waved the black knife in his hand, turning it into a black light and slashing at the yellow light curtain.

The earthy yellow light curtain suddenly shook violently, and a large area of yellow light was slashed down by the black knife, turning into a yellow mist and drifting away.

Then Shi Mu's whole person turned into a black figure, **** back and forth in the light curtain, while frantically attacking the formation prohibition like a thunderbolt, and at the same time waving his hand to send out fireballs.

Seeing Shi Mu's move, Zhong Xiu's attack suddenly accelerated, and the blue ripples condensed into a spear short sword, slashing at the light curtain, and the other hand waved his hand to release ice picks.

Both of them are dual cultivators in martial arts, and their martial arts attainments are not weak.

After Shi Mu beast transformed, he already had the strength of the ground level, and Zhong Xiu was even a moon-level warlock, and under the joint attack, the light of the Wutu Yellow Armor Great Array flashed wildly, and the thickness of the light curtain gradually became thinner.

In less than a stick of incense, the light curtain has become extremely thin.

"They must not be allowed to break out!"

Outside the magic circle, the gray-robed man roared wildly, and among the three points of starlight behind his head, a little starlight shone brightly, and it immediately exploded.

The other five people agreed at the same time, and they also urged the starlight phantom behind their heads to burst.

As the gray mist submerged into the bodies of several people, the mana fluctuations on these people's bodies suddenly increased, and their hands glowed like wheels.

The yellow light curtain shone brightly, and a trace of yellow light continued to be generated on it, filling in the missing place of the light curtain, making the magic circle stable again.

In the formation, Shi Mu saw this scene, and his face was difficult to look at.

Seeing that he was about to break the formation, there was a change again, and it was impossible to break through the formation in a short time.

And after such a long delay, eighty percent of the floating cloud convoy has already entered the Valley of the Wind.

He was upset in his heart, causing the heat in the dantian in his body to surge, and he let out a low cry, and the black knife in his hand flipped and slashed horizontally towards the light curtain.

At the moment when the black knife was swung, a faint layer of crystal light suddenly appeared on the surface of the blade.

The blade of the black knife cut deep into the light curtain.

Shi Mu looked stunned, then showed a look of ecstasy, and hurriedly urged the true qi in his body to frantically inject into the black knife.

The crystal light on the black knife rose sharply, and it rose to more than two feet.

He held the knife in both hands and twisted his wrist vigorously.

There was a dull sound of "click", and a deep trace was cut on the light curtain.

The originally sturdy light curtain was like an ordinary earthen wall in front of the black knife at this moment, and a large piece could be easily cut.

Shi Mu took advantage of the situation to dance the black knife into a knife flower, and slashed wildly on the light curtain.

In a few breaths, dozens of deep marks were cut out on the light curtain in front of Shi Mu, and the thickness of the light curtain was weakened by nearly half.

"Xiu'er, don't worry about other places, join me in attacking this place!" he turned to Zhong Xiu and shouted.

Zhong Xiu looked at it, and his pretty face was suddenly happy.

Zheng Zheng Zheng!

The sonorous sound of the piano sounded, and blue ripples appeared, and then they converged together, condensing into a thick blue spear shadow that was a long length.

Rumble!

The blue spear shadow slammed into the light curtain, and the light curtain flashed wildly, and it was immediately weakened by another layer.

"How is that possible?"

Outside the light curtain, the gray-robed man's face changed drastically, and he didn't understand what was going on inside.

At this moment, a little white light appeared on a black jade bracelet on his wrist, and then immediately dissipated again.

The gray-robed man's face relaxed, and he turned to shout to the others.

"Mission accomplished, let's retreat!"

When the others heard this, they were all relieved, stood up, and were about to leave.

At this moment, a "click" sounded coming!

A large crack appeared on the light curtain, and a blade that emitted a crystal sword light stabbed out of the light curtain. (To be continued.) )
