Chapter Forty-Nine: In vain

Today, Xiaoyaomen has long disappeared into the dust of history. The craftsmanship of the various scrolls has also disappeared, and only a very small part has survived.

And the space scroll that Wang Mianjian just used can be said to be the lowest type of space scroll, which can only span one state.

If it is the highest level space scroll, it will not be a problem to cross thousands of miles in an instant.

The sun was sinking in the west, and the sky was getting darker.

Wang Mianjian and his entourage carefully hid in a mountain forest. After feeling it silently for a moment, there was nothing abnormal, and everyone couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief. The atmosphere is so oppressive that there is even a feeling that the grass and trees are all soldiers.

Inevitably having a long night and dreaming a lot, Wang Mianjian looked around cautiously, rolled up his sleeves, and was about to rush to Zezhou Taiping Mansion with the Xianguo group at full speed.

"Not good!"

Wang Mianjian suddenly changed color, screamed, and stopped in the air in an instant. Then, the essence of dark spiritual power instantly erupted, and black flames swept out.

"Palace Master, what's wrong?"

Seeing that Wang Mianjian was like a great enemy, he kept looking at the four directions with a solemn expression, Zheng Xiumin couldn't help but lean closer to Wang Mianjian nervously.

"Our whereabouts have been revealed, and there are people around us who are trapped!"

Wang Mianjian didn't speak, and Yu Rongyue behind him said with a cold expression. At this time, the pupil of Yu Rongyue's right eye turned into a regular diamond shape again, and the pupils that trembled violently continued to overflow with purple streamers.

"What?

Zheng Xiumin exclaimed in horror. No matter how stupid he was, he realized the seriousness of the problem. You must know that they borrowed the space scroll and instantly crossed tens of thousands of miles away, and directly appeared in Changning Mansion on the border of Yongzhou. At such a long distance, even if a powerhouse above the Nine Heavens of the Heaven Realm could fly at full speed without using the law, it would take four to five days, how could anyone be faster than them? Moreover, their choice to enter Zezhou from Changning Mansion in Yongzhou was all a temporary decision. This route should not be known at all.

How could there be people, as if they had appeared here early, as if they were sure that they would definitely enter this place.

Zheng Xiumin's forehead couldn't help but be covered with cold sweat. Thinking about it, at present, there are only two possibilities for the other party to be able to trap them here silently.

First, there is a strong person in the opposing team who has completed the Heaven Stepping Realm. The Heaven Stepping Realm Consummation-level powerhouse is almost already a figure standing at the top of the continent at the moment.

Once a cultivator reaches this level, it means that his application of a certain law of heaven and earth must reach the point where he has reached the point of reaching the hundred veins and being in harmony. All kinds of means have reached the point where they are unpredictable and incomprehensible to others. If he was really targeted by a Heaven Treading Realm Perfection level powerhouse, it would naturally be difficult to detect Wang Mianjian's cultivation that had just stepped into the Heaven Treading Dual Heaven.

If this is the case, it can only mean that the other party's divine thoughts have already firmly locked on them. Even if he entered the spatial rift and crossed thousands of miles, he still didn't get rid of it. And the other party had already calculated the location where they fell out after the spatial transfer, and used unknown magical means to trap them here.

It's just that no matter how you think about it, Zheng Xiumin doesn't think it's possible. After all, there are only a few known Heaven Stepping Realm consummation powerhouses on the continent at present.

The four noble generals of the Wutian Dynasty and the protector of the country, why not recover, the commander of the Immortal Kingdom to win Guangqi, the head of the sword master Yang Chaoyue, the Qin Demon Zhuge Qingtian; the Buddha of the Buddha Kingdom sat down as a big disciple, the head of the Seven Buddhas, Fa Junbin, and the front of the hall did not empty the Buddha Ming Mengzhe; the two protectors of the Witch Kingdom, Visha and Shiva, the head of the eleven sages, Fuwei! Then there is the White Night Witch Jingqi Xiuying, who is said to be in the Western Soil but has not appeared for hundreds of years!

With the status and fame of these people, they don't bother to do such things at all. After all, these people are related to the stability of the mainland, and they affect the whole body. Once someone makes a move, it will inevitably attract the attention of all forces, and the impact will be incalculable.

One carelessness could plunge an entire continent into war.

Moreover, if the Heaven Treading Realm Consummation-level powerhouses really wanted to deal with them, they didn't need to be so troublesome at all, there was no need to let them enter the spatial passage, and before that, they could be pinched to death like an ant. Instead of just locking them up here, as they are now. There doesn't seem to be a rush to kill them.

And if it is not this possibility, it can only be the second possibility.

That is, their opponents come from an extremely powerful organization. At least the sphere of influence covers the territory of Wutian Yongzhou. After getting the news, they laid a net of heaven and earth throughout the border of Yongzhou early, and no matter which direction they went from, they were destined to fall into their trap.

It's just that if this is the case, it's even more impossible.

Nowadays, the major forces divide the fortune of the world and admit the people of the world into the dynasty, which is clearly distinguished. How is it possible that an organization has grown to such a point under the noses of various forces and has never been noticed?

Shaking his head, Zheng Xiumin leaned towards Wang Mianjian again with an uneasy expression. At this time, only Wang Mianjian, who was a powerhouse of the Heavenly Ladder Realm, could bring him a sense of security.

Zhang Yingke, another leading teacher of the Immortal Kingdom, also stood back to back with Zheng Xiumin with a worried face, and the current situation had faintly exceeded his prediction. The moment he set off from the Heavenless Martial Arts Arena, he couldn't help but cast a shadow on his heart.

Jiahe Yuexin had a calm face, and stood next to Yu Rongyue without saying a word, her right hand tightly holding the hilt of the sword, and her white fingertips trembled slightly because of the excessive force.

Wang Mianjian looked around vigilantly, and at the same time turned around and glanced at Yu Rongyue with flickering eyes.

Time passed bit by bit, and Wang Mianjian and his party did not act rashly. And the surrounding trap is becoming clearer and clearer. It can be faintly seen that hundreds of miles away from the surroundings of everyone, including the head and feet, there is a layer of cyan barriers in all directions, firmly sealing everyone inside.

The surroundings were quiet, and each other could hear each other's breathing.

Zheng Xiumin, who was faintly a little broken, couldn't help but look at Wang Mianjian and asked in a trembling voice: "Palace Master, why don't we try to break through the big formation?"

When Wang Mianjian heard this, he narrowed his eyes slightly, glanced around from afar, and slowly looked at his mouth.

"Do you know what kind of formation this is? This formation is called "Dead Wood Spring Formation!", once it is laid down, it can rotate yin and yang, change the heavens and the earth, and use the power of the people in the formation to feed back to themselves, greatly enhancing the power of the formation. As soon as you enter this formation, if you have no way to do it and forcibly break the formation, the more you resist, the more useless it will be! This formation can be described as one of the most difficult trapping formations in the cultivation world. The only thing we can do now is to wait!

"What??" Zheng Xiumin and Zhang Yingke were full of surprise, and then their faces showed despair. They didn't expect to see this trapped formation that could be described as thunderous in the entire cultivation world in such a situation.

Once this array is laid down, unless it instantly bursts out with a force that is unbearable for the big array and breaks the formation in one fell swoop!

Therefore, if you want to break the formation, unless you reach the level of cultivation of the Heavenly Gui General, everything will be in vain.

When Jiahe Yuexin and Yu Rongyue heard this, they also showed a moved face. If we stay like this, who knows what the situation will turn out to? So far, it seems that everything is going in a bad direction.

Just when everyone is thinking about it and worrying about it. Outside the large array, a cloud-piercing arrow suddenly broke through the sky.

"Boom!" the sky left a long howl that did not disperse. The Cloud Piercing Arrow instantly exploded in the air, and a huge torrent of bright white spiritual power swept across the sky, lighting up the night sky and shattering the tranquility.

"What is this?" The expressions of everyone in the formation changed drastically! With this arrow, their whereabouts were undoubtedly exposed to the people of the world. The purpose of this group of people is self-evident.

They're going to borrow a knife to kill!

This can also explain why they have taken great pains to lock them here, all in order to prevent them from returning to the immortal kingdom and buy time for those with bad intentions in the Quartet.

It's just that what is the purpose of their doing this? Since they have been sealed up here without knowing it, why don't they take matters into their own hands? Instead, they have to spend time and effort to delay their time.

The light in the sky lingered for a long time, and Wang Mianjian and his party finally saw what the enemies in the Quartet looked like.

I saw that on the four corners of the large array, there were four black-robed people.

All four of them looked lifeless, without any vitality, as if they were not living creatures. The robe on its hood is embroidered with a large skull that extends from the front to the back. Nothing else could be seen, and the wide black robe covered them tightly, without a trace of suspicion.

In the big array, Wang Mianjian looked at the outfits of these people, and suddenly an electric current crossed his mind, and his body subconsciously took a step forward, and exclaimed in horror.

"Black robes cover your faces, skeletons wrap your bodies! you are 'Remnants of the Apocalypse!'"

Although Wang Mianjian's tone was affirmative, the suspicion in his expression could not be concealed.

As far as he knew, there had been a rumor circulating on the mainland.

That is, from ancient times to the present, there seems to have been a group of strange people hidden deep on the continent.

They seem to have an endless lifespan, and whenever there is a great change in the mainland, they can be faintly seen from behind it.

They call themselves "Remnants of the Apocalypse!", and they are dressed in black robes, like dead people, never exposed to the sun.

Hearing Wang Mianjian's words, the heads of the four black-robed people around the big array were slightly deflected under the black robes, and after glancing at Wang Mianjian, they stopped moving, as if they had never moved.

Although he did not receive a reply from the black-robed man, Wang Mianjian had already affirmed the identity of the black-robed man in his heart. After all, the outfit of this group was exactly the same as the rumored remnants of the Apocalypse. The black robe that covered his head and body looked old and rough, and no matter how he looked at it, he felt extremely weird.

At this time, Zheng Xiumin and the others didn't think so much, through the big array, looking at the bright night sky, their hearts sank to the bottom, the previous efforts were in vain, and everything seemed to have returned to the original point.

Even, worse than before!
