Chapter 609: Unfathomable
In the second half of the night, after some rest, Gu Chen had already regained enough energy, so he replaced the vigil task of the Ghost Sword Venerable.
At this time, the fire under the mountain had been completely extinguished, and Gu Chen could only roughly see the outline of Qiu Yuan and the others with a little starlight.
Suddenly, a man got up and walked towards the stream.
I saw that there were four ripples in the place where he walked.
Gu Chen knew that it should be caused by passing through the formation.
This shows that the person has completely stepped out of the scope of the formation.
Although he couldn't see the man's face clearly, he was rickety, holding a cane, and he thought it was the formation mage Qiu Yuan.
Gu Chen was worried that Qiu Yuan would be in danger if he was left alone, so he quietly followed.
......
Qiu Yuan stopped by the stream and looked up at the sky, as if in a daze.
Gu Chen stayed fifty meters behind Qiu Yuan, under a low tree.
It stands to reason that with Gu Chen's strength, coupled with the hidden aura of the "Luminous Blue Jade", shielding the soul fluctuations, even from the Saint Realm masters, may not be able to find out, but Qiu Yuan seems to have discovered something......
I saw that Qiu Yuan suddenly said thoughtlessly: "Your Excellency has been with you all night, don't you feel tired?"
Gu Chen was shocked in his heart, and said in his heart, Qiu Yuan is worthy of being a formation master, although his cultivation is low, he can discover his existence, which is really unexpected.
Just as Gu Chen was about to appear, there was a burst of laughter in the darkness: "Hahahaha, I deserve to be a formation master, my means are not small!
The man's voice was slightly hoarse, as if he had deliberately changed his original voice, and it was impossible to tell whether it was a man or a woman, or an approximate age.
When Gu Chen heard this, a figure wearing a black robe and a grimace mask appeared fifty meters to the left of Qiu Yuan.
"Sikong Changye?" Gu Chen's heart was shocked, and then he felt a little weird, "No, it's not Sikong Changye! It's just that the outfit is about the same, this person's strength has definitely not reached the Holy Realm!"
Qiu Yuan turned to face the man and said, "Although the old man is not good at force, he still has some means to save his life, otherwise he has died many times over the years!"
"Hmph!" The mysterious man snorted coldly and said to Qiu Yuan: "Do you still want to survive tonight? If you don't go out of the formation, you may still have some chances, but now that you take the initiative to go out of the formation, you are asking for your own death!"
"Why did you come to kill me?" Qiu Yuan asked the mysterious man with a calm expression.
"Cut, ask knowingly! It's useless to delay time! Without the protection of the formation, even if those three wastes find out, they won't be able to save you!" said the mysterious man with a sneer.
Qiuyuan Gujing said without waves: "Are you afraid that I will break the formation? It seems that you don't have the slightest confidence in your formation! Come to think of it, the person who set up the formation is just a third-rate commodity! Hehe, the old man is probably going to be disappointed this time! I thought I could meet the opponent in chess, and I encountered a more difficult formation, but it's a pity that ......."
When the mysterious man heard this, he immediately became angry, and shouted at Qiu Yuan: "Shut up! How can you speculate about my master's ability? Let me tell you, my master is not only at the peak of his strength, but also the way of the formation is superb, just because you want to break his big array?"
Qiu Yuan said with a smile: "Oh, why did he send you to kill me? And you, since you are so confident in your master's formation, why are you in a hurry to kill me for him?"
"Hmph!" the mysterious man snorted coldly and said, "I'm too lazy to waste a tongue with your mortal man, suffer death, old thing!"
After the mysterious man finished speaking, he flipped his palm, summoned a black short sword, and wanted to stab at Qiu Yuan.
"Why be so impulsive?" Qiu Yuan shook his head and smiled, and then pointed at the mysterious man with a cane like a tree root.
I saw that the head of the crutch suddenly flashed with white light, and at the same time, the stars in the sky suddenly flourished, and the ten thousand stars turned into a cage and appeared around the mysterious person.
The Starlight Cage may seem as fragile as crystal, but it won't hurt the mystery man to punch, kick, or stab him with his sword.
"Damn old ghost, what kind of means are you, how can you be a mere Heavenly Rank First Realm cultivator who can trap me from the Holy Realm master?" the mysterious man suddenly shouted at Qiu Yuan in annoyance.
Qiu Yuan smiled faintly and said: "The old man has studied the formation for many years, and the formation he has arranged has long been not limited by the terrain, terrain, materials and other things, and the exquisite large arrays are carved in the crutches with me, as long as I wave my hand, I can lay out a large array! Although your strength is strong, but the old man occupies the right time and place, and he laid down this 'Zhou Tian Xingchen Great Array', summoning the power of starlight and turning it into a cage to trap you! No matter how strong you are, you are just a mortal in the flesh, how can you compete with heaven and earth?"
"Damn!" the mysterious man scolded angrily, and said angrily, "So, you deliberately lured me out?"
"Since we have discovered the danger in the shadows, it is naturally better to eliminate it earlier! The old man is not used to being in danger all the time!" Qiu Yuan stroked his beard and smiled.
The mysterious man said disdainfully: "Elimination? Just because you want to kill me, it's a big joke! I just stand still and don't move, and it's not something that you, a first-realm cultivator of the Heavenly Rank, can hurt! So, don't think that you can control my life and death by trapping me with the formation!"
Qiu Yuan nodded and said, "Yes, most of the formations in the old man's crutches are used to trap the enemy and defend himself, and there are no offensive and powerful formations, it is really difficult to kill you!
"Help you, just those three Ling Xiao Sword Guards, stinky fish and rotten shrimp, and dare to be my enemy?" said the mysterious man again with disdain.
"You are not afraid of the three of them, then, are you afraid of Gu Chen of the Pantheistic Sect?" Qiu Yuan said with a smile.
"What?Gu Chen?" The mysterious man was suddenly startled, and then pointed at Qiu Yuan and said, "You don't scare me, how can Gu Chen come here! Even if someone picks you up, it is also a member of the Lingxiao Sword Sect! What does it have to do with the Pantheistic Sect?"
Qiu Yuan said lightly: "The old man knows that you will definitely monitor the every move of the master of the Lingxiao Sword Sect, so he took the initiative to ask the sect master to let the Gu sect master of the Ten Thousand Gods Sect come to answer! Seeing that you are so surprised, you must not care too much about the whereabouts of the Gu sect master, right? In this way, the old man is right!"
Only then did Gu Chen know that it was Qiu Yuan who named him to pick him up! No wonder Luo Shenji didn't give himself a chance to refuse at all, it turned out that he knew that the masters of the Lingxiao Sword Sect were easy to be monitored, and he was more loose with himself, and he had a "Faint Blue Jade" body, and it was not easy to be noticed along the way! It seems that taking the Shura Hall is still secondary, and Luo Shenji's goal from the beginning is himself! However, it's not that Luo Shenji doesn't believe in the strength of the Shura Palace, but that he is still a little worried about their behavior!
The mysterious man said coldly to Qiu Yuan: "You old thing is really cunning!But even if Gu Chen is in person, what if I am afraid that he will not succeed?"
Qiu Yuan shook his head and smiled, and shouted at Gu Chen's hiding place, "Sect Master Gu, this person seems to be doubting your strength!"
Gu Chen was suddenly a little surprised, he didn't expect Qiu Yuan to really know that he had arrived, and he could accurately know his location! How did he know about it? It stands to reason that the faint blue jade can perfectly cover the master's aura and soul fluctuations, unless he looks at it with his eyes, otherwise, even if he is standing behind others, he may not be able to perceive it! Moreover, Gu Chen is behind Qiu Yuan's side, and there is also the cover of the big tree, Qiu Yuan can't see Gu Chen!
Although he was puzzled, Gu Chen still walked out.
Gu Chen walked straight to Qiu Yuan's side and said to him, "I've seen Master Qiu Yuan!"
Qiu Yuan hurriedly replied: "Sect Master Gu is polite, with your identity, the old man should salute you!"
Gu Chen waved his hand and said, "I have always admired strange people and strange people, and I am also extremely interested in the way of formation, and now when I see a grandmaster-level formation mage like Master Qiuyuan, I should treat him with courtesy!"
Master Qiuyuan looked at Gu Chen with great interest and said, "Oh, I didn't expect that Sect Master Gu not only has a very high cultivation talent, but is also interested in the way of formation?
"I don't dare to discuss, I only know a little bit about the way of formation in the next formation, I should ask Master Qiuyuan for advice!" Gu Chen arched his hand at Qiuyuan again.
"It's easy to say!" Qiu Yuan stroked his beard and looked at Gu Chen with a satisfied expression.
Seeing that Gu Chen was in a high position and cultivated to a high level, but he was so humble and polite, it immediately aroused Qiu Yuan's favor.
When the mysterious man saw Gu Chen and Qiu Yuan chatting as if no one was around, he immediately became angry and shouted at Gu Chen: "Hey, are you Gu Chen, do you dare to let that old ghost let me go, let's have a fair fight! I want to see if you are worthy of your name or your fame!"
Gu Chen shook his head and smiled: "It doesn't matter if it's worthy of the name, it's not in vain, you are just a subordinate prisoner now, why should this seat accept your challenge?"
The mysterious man couldn't help but scold Gu Chen angrily: "Phew! I didn't expect that the dignified Pantheistic Sect Leader didn't even have the courage to fight, I think you are just a person who sells your reputation and reputation! It's really a shame for my generation!"
Gu Chen shook his head again and smiled, ignoring the man again.
"According to Sect Master Gu's opinion, what should be done with this person?" Qiu Yuan suddenly asked Gu Chen.
Gu Chen touched his chin and looked at the man carefully, and then whispered to Qiu Yuan: "This person should be related to the mysterious forces in the Yunqing Plain, and now we don't know their origins, details, and specific strength. And this person has the cultivation from the Holy Realm, and I think he also has a certain status among the mysterious forces, if he can get some useful information from his mouth, he will also be able to know himself and the other when he meets them in the future!"
Qiu Yuan nodded and said, "Sect Master Gu is reasonable! However, I'm afraid he may not be willing to say it! A person with such cultivation must be a person with a firm will, and he will never betray easily!"
Gu Chen said with a smile: "Asking such things as a question naturally has to be done by professionals!"
Qiu Yuan was thoughtful when he heard this, and then asked Gu Chen, "Oh, I don't know which one of the Shura Hall came with Sect Master Gu?"
"It's the Ghost Sword Venerable!" Gu Chen replied, Gu Chen was not surprised that Qiu Yuan knew that someone from the Shura Hall had also come, even if Luo Shenji did not send a message to him, it was not difficult to guess according to Gu Chen's words. Shura Hall is not only good at assassination, but also knows the essence of torture and interrogation, and the forces of all parties are beyond their reach!
"That's very good!Then let's invite the Ghost Sword Venerable!" Qiu Yuan said to Gu Chen.
Gu Chen couldn't help but be curious, and Master Qiuyuan asked alone, "Does Master Qiuyuan have no scruples about the Shura Palace?"
Qiu Yuan stroked his beard and said: "Although the old man is not involved in disputes, he has also heard a little about major events in the world. Although the Shura Hall behaves perversely, has a murderous nature, and likes to solve problems by killing, it is not evil! Under the leadership of Tuoba Qianfeng, although the Shura Hall has grown stronger and stronger, it has always been at odds with the Daomen, but it has rarely taken the initiative to infringe on the forces of all sides. Now, since the Sword Immortal has chosen to cooperate with the Shura Palace, then he naturally trusts the Shura Palace!"
