Chapter 371: The Mystery of the Strange Gate

When he finally climbed to the entrance, he found that the white mist had stopped abruptly here, and it was quite strange to look at it from the outside world.

Su Qiubai found the spirit stone of the formation according to Dongfang Rui's instructions, and after cracking the formation, he used light skills to run in the direction where Dongfang Rui was.

When he returned to the middle of the valley, he found that Dongfang Rui was gone!

What's going on? What happened to him? Did you also inhale the white mist and fall into a hallucination? Or is it ...... Arrested by the people of Taiyi Gate?

If it is the former situation, it is okay, he can always find him, but if he is arrested by the people of Taiyimen, he does not know the route behind him, whether he can find the location of Taiyimen, not to mention, Dongfang Rui may also fall into great danger because of this, after all, his identity is a person who defected from the division.

Because he was worried that there were people from the Taiyi Gate nearby, Su Qiubai carefully concealed his breath and voice, and began to look for Dongfang Rui in all directions, but until he finished searching for the remaining half of the valley, he didn't see him.

Just when Su Qiubai wanted to continue looking, he suddenly saw a sandalwood bead in the grass, and then recognized that it was originally a string of Buddhist beads on Dongfang Rui's hand, why was there only one left at this time?

But he quickly figured out that this Buddha bead must have been deliberately left by Dongfang Rui! The purpose is naturally to leave a mark for himself, firstly, to tell himself that he has been arrested, and secondly, to use the Buddha beads to guide himself on the way to Taiyimen.

Presumably, the people of Taiyimen thought that Dongfang Rui came alone, so they did not continue to search for their whereabouts and took him back to Shimen.

In addition, the luggage brought by Su Qiubai and Dongfang Rui has also disappeared, and there are many magic weapons of Su Qiubai, most of which have now fallen into the hands of Taiyimen. Fortunately, for the sake of prudence, he has been keeping the Xuanyuan Sword and Shennong Ding close to him, so that he will not have nothing. As long as he had these two artifacts in his hands, he wouldn't be too worried.

At present, Dongfang Rui's whereabouts must not be found, so he can only continue to walk along the road in front of the valley, carefully watching for the Buddhist beads left by Dongfang Rui on the road.

Because this place has entered the realm of Taiyi Gate, it is not far from its real location, so the mountain road behind it is not difficult. Dongfang Rui really left the Buddha beads as a mark along the way, and where he left the Buddha beads, Su Qiubai would definitely be able to find the trap laid by Taiyi Gate, this smart old man not only used this method to show him the way, but also marked the trap for him, so that he could be on guard in advance and not be trapped.

After walking for half a day and collecting a total of eighteen Buddha beads, Su Qiubai suddenly felt an inexplicable aura, as if he had stepped into a special place, where spiritual power was abundant and the aura was unique, he quickly realized that this was the breath that only existed in the place where cultivators gathered!

It seems that Taiyi Gate is close at hand, and after stepping into this place, Su Qiubai has to be more careful to restrain his breath, otherwise he may be discovered by the people of Taiyi Gate if he is not careful.

Su Qiubai found a high ground, looked around, and wanted to find the location of Taiyi Gate, but found that there was no other part of the surrounding area except for mountains, rocks, grass and trees, and there was not even a trace of human activity!

Could it be that I miscalculated, in fact, I haven't entered the territory of Taiyi Gate yet? But the aura here is so strong, it is impossible for me to feel wrong. It seems that the entrance to the Taiyi Gate is too deep to be hidden, and it is not something that can be found lightly.

With such a famous family with a long history, it is easy to hide itself, so that it will not be known to the world for thousands of years.

Although there seemed to be nothing here, Su Qiubai knew that they had either used some tricks to block the entrance, or they were using the terrain to confuse people's vision, so that people could not see where the entrance was at a glance.

If it is a trick, there will inevitably be a similar arrangement of formations, and you can always find clues if you look carefully. But if you take advantage of the terrain, it's a lot more troublesome. The power of nature is always more magical than man, and sometimes the exit is right in front of you, but because of the obscuration of a stone or a tree, it blinds people's vision.

Su Qiubai first followed the trail of the aura and searched around, but found nothing except for two traps.

At this moment, he was even more sure that the entrance to Taiyi Gate was hidden nearby, but since there was no obstructive formation, it was naturally blocked by something.

Because it was not done by man, Su Qiubai had no way to speculate, so he had to search for it honestly, and even used his divine sense to explore the surrounding environment, but he still didn't find where the entrance was.

The structure of this place is too much to be created by heaven and earth, and even the divine sense can be hidden, what kind of miraculous workmanship is it?

Su Qiubai tried to calm down, carefully staring at every stone and tree nearby, trying to find a connection between their locations. And this look at it, I finally found the clue.

The trees and stones seemed to have grown naturally, and there was no sign of manual transport, but there were faint traces of Qimen formations in their locations.

The Qimen formation is different from the ordinary formation, and it can't work hard, but it can confuse people's eyes the most.

Su Qiubai searched the Qimen formation he knew, but he didn't see which formation it was, there may be a few stones in the arrangement similar to the arrangement of a certain formation, but when he arrived at the next place, he suddenly looked like another formation, and under such a mixture, it was impossible to crack it with any of the formation's cracking methods.

With such a Qimen formation spread across half of the mountain, Su Qiubai believed that no one in the world could deploy it, presumably this place was born with such a shape, and I don't know how the ancestors of Taiyimen discovered such a treasure land.

Dongfang Rui's Buddha Bead Guidance was no longer visible at this time, but he must have known that there was such a powerful formation here, if there was no guidance, it would be extremely difficult for Su Qiubai to break the formation, could he really be so relieved not to leave any instructions? Su Qiubai thought to himself that this was impossible, he had come to this point, Dongfang Rui would never be willing to see him give up, and he was not a person with a fluke mentality, and it was impossible for Su Qiubai to break the formation by luck.

After thinking about this, Su Qiubai went to find the tallest tree, climbed to the top of the tree and looked down.

He originally wanted to go to the top of this mountain to see, but he found that he had only been wandering halfway up the mountain for half a day, and he had never been able to go up half a step further. It seems that the top of the mountain is the real location of Taiyi Gate, and it is also the place where this natural Qimen formation is hidden.

Looking down from the top of the tree, although the surrounding scenery is not fully visible, it is much clearer than from below, but even if you look here, you still can't see the slightest trace of the entrance, or a hint of a star.

Could it be that I guessed wrong, Dongfang Rui really didn't leave any hints? Su Qiubai thought dejectedly.

It was almost evening, but Su Qiubai still couldn't find a way up the mountain, even if he kept walking to the high ground with his eyes closed, he could still go back to the same place. It seems that this formation not only has an impact on vision, but also interferes with all five senses.

In the time he hesitated, it was already dark, and he couldn't find the way during the day, let alone at night. Because this place was too close to Taiyi Gate, Su Qiubai didn't dare to light a fire, so he had to find a stone nest nearby, planning to shrink inside and make up for a night.

Tonight is the first day of the new year, there is not even moonlight, and the scattered starlight cannot illuminate the night on the mountain at all.

Su Qiubai hid in the dark, still thinking about where the exit might be in his mind, but there was still no result.

Because the night was so thick, it was easy to spot as long as there was a little bit of light around, and Su Qiubai quickly saw the little green light in the distance.

Su Qiubai suddenly had a puzzle in his heart, looking at the color of the light, it could never be a flame, and there could be no light in this deep mountain and old forest. Could it be a ghost fire? He was not afraid of this, so he carefully moved to the place where the light was shining.

When he got closer, he saw that it was a large mass of fireflies!

The fireflies seemed to be attracted by something, and they all gathered in one place, and the original tiny light was magnified countless times because of this, and the surrounding scenery was clearly illuminated, comparable to a huge light bulb.

Before he had time to think about what was going on, Su Qiubai sensed that something was wrong.

He'd searched the neighborhood countless times during the day, and this place didn't seem to be what it was during the day. He frowned, tried to take a few steps forward, and carefully looked at his surroundings again, and finally realized that something was wrong, and an inconspicuous path appeared in front of him!

He clearly remembered that during the day, he saw that there was a big rock blocking it, where did this path come from?

But when he looked back and saw the group of fireflies behind him, he immediately understood what was going on. It turns out that the method of cracking this Qimen formation is so simple! Just under the light of fireflies, you can break a qiē obstacle.

But how did these fireflies come here for no reason? Su Qiubai felt a little strange, maybe this was the hint that Dongfang Rui left?

Thinking like this, Su Qiubai walked to the fireflies, and as soon as the fireflies saw him approaching, they scattered to the side, but soon regathered around him, and they didn't seem to be too afraid of people.

Su Qiubai rummaged under the grass where the fireflies gathered, but found that there was a huge light cluster in the grass, which should be a bunch of fireflies on top of something.

Su Qiubai stretched out his hand to remove the firefly, but found that it was just a stone inside.

Holding the stone in his hand and playing with it, Su Qiubai didn't see anything special about this stone, and was wondering, when he suddenly smelled a strange fragrance, which seemed to come from the stone.

Su Qiubai approached the stone and sniffed it, and found that there was a strong honey fragrance on the stone, which was also mixed with the fragrance of unknown flowers, and the mixture was very good.
