This kind of scenario, this situation, is already quite obvious.

Yun Zihai held the brush and was ready to make a move.

But at this moment, Xu Bai grabbed him and asked him not to act for the time being.

"Don't you think it's strange that it's bare, as if they didn't see us?"

The surrounding trees were cut down, leaving only the stumps standing in the dirt, and in this kind of scene, the visual range was extremely high, but the other party didn't seem to see them.

It's not normal.

Yun Zihai put down the brush in his hand and fell into deep thought.

"It's a trick."

Xu Bai nodded and said, "Or the change of formation, it is completely enough to deceive people who don't understand this industry." ”

"Do you understand?" Qingxue said strangely.

Xu Bai swore by what she said just now, and she had doubts in her heart, in her opinion, Xu Bai should be a martial artist.

"I understand a little." Xu Bai said modestly.

The four-step method is not only a body method, but also combines the four-step formation, and the combination of the two makes up for each other, producing a strong effect and reaching the level of the third order.

Generally speaking, Xu Bai still understands a little bit about the formation.

As the saying goes, draw inferences.

"Xu Bai, you are extremely talented, your strength is strong, and your talent in martial arts is far beyond ordinary people, I don't recommend that you be distracted to learn others." Qingxue reminded.

Out of good intentions, she still felt that this kind of thing should be explained, after all, many people think that they are geniuses, so they choose a variety of ways to cultivate together, and as a result, nothing can be achieved.

This kind of thing is very common in history, if not a lot.

Although there are many examples in front of us, there are always some geniuses who are arrogant and arrogant, thinking that they can control it, so they forcibly cultivate more despite the dissuasion of others.

As a result, they were slapped in the face alive, and after one attempt after another, this conclusion finally came down.

The time cost of cultivating more is far greater than cultivating an ability alone, like the Zhou family, their main focus is still martial arts.

If you take care of everything, the end result is that everyone is lost.

It was Qingxue who felt that it was necessary for her to remind her, she didn't want to see Xu Bai go down that old path.

"Don't worry, I know it." Xu Bai nodded and said.

After saying this, he slowly raised his feet and walked in the direction of the group.

"Brother Xu, be careful." Clouds from the sea road.

Xu Bai didn't answer, and looked intently at the bare clearing in front of him.

When he stepped into a range, everything in front of him became magical.

The air around him began to twist and distort, as if he had been caught in a hallucinogenic place, dangling in front of his eyes all the time, trying to guide his thoughts.

Xu Bai closed his eyes and began to move his feet irregularly.

With each step, the air around him twisted more violently, and at the same time, from above his feet, a surging golden light emerged.

The traction of the True Yuan Force, combined with the four-step method, is destroying this formation from different directions.

From the outside world, in the eyes of Yun Zihai and others, nothing abnormal happened to Xu Bai.

They just saw that Xu Bai was moving around irregularly, and as for the distorted air, they couldn't see it at all, because they hadn't stepped into the range of the formation.

According to this law, Xu Bai probably walked for nearly a stick of incense before everything in front of him returned to normal.

The twisted air was gone, and the feeling that had been misleading him all the time was gone, but in its place, the scenery around him changed.

The stumps on the ground disappeared from view as if they had never appeared, and then one by one, trees suddenly appeared, and the clearing became a new forest.

The woods are dense and quiet in the moonlight.

Due to the sudden appearance of the woods, the man in black in front of him also disappeared.

Obviously, it is indeed a trick.

"It's broken." Xu Bai opened his eyes and said to Yun Zihai and the others.

Yun Zihai and Qingxue glanced at each other, ready to raise their feet and walk towards the woods.

Now that the formation has been broken, it's time to go to their target.

"Wait, don't go in yet." Zhou Qing didn't move, he stared at the woods in front of him, and it took about a long time before he slowly spoke.

Just as they were about to go to Yun Zihai and Qingxue stopped, Xu Bai, who was standing in front of the woods, also frowned, and their eyes focused on Zhou Qing.

Since everyone has formed a team for the time being, then everyone's opinions must be respected, and now Zhou Qing is obviously in trouble, and they are not in a hurry.

"There's a mechanism." Zhou Qing said solemnly.

As a gravedigger, Zhou Qing chose the profession he was most interested in.

Martial arts is his major, but in the gravedigger industry, he is most interested in the mechanics of things.

In those terrifying tombs, there are many traps one after another, which is a huge challenge for the gravediggers.

The so-called drawing inferences from one case to another, Zhou Qing can see the way out of the door in terms of organs, even if it is not from the tomb.

When the formation in front of him was broken by Xu Bai, Zhou Qing quickly discovered that something was wrong.

There was a formation blocking it just now, but he hadn't seen it yet, but now that he saw it, of course he couldn't let Xu Bai and the others move forward with their heads bored.

No matter how strong the strength is, those who walk the rivers and lakes must also guard against some indiscriminate tricks.

For example, poison, for example, beauty, or heavy organs.

The examples of people in the rivers and lakes being killed by three indiscriminate tricks can be said to be endless, and many people are alert.

"Everyone walk behind me, and I'll help you lead the way." Zhou Qingdao.

Xu Bai said: "Okay." ”

Since Xu Bai had already agreed, Yun Zihai and Qingxue didn't say anything, they lined up in a long line and walked behind Zhou Qing.

Zhou Qing did not grind, as the leader, he walked into the woods first.

Before he could take two steps, he stopped and tapped lightly on the tree next to him.

A translucent silk thread bounces off the ground, and if you can't see clearly, you're bound to trip to the ground.

Zhou Qing squatted down and gently flicked the silk thread, and then, at the height of the woods, a huge iron plate fell, and on top of the iron plate, there were sharp iron thorns.

On top of the iron thorns, there is also a color that does not belong to metal, and from Xu Bai's current vision, this is poisonous.

"Huh......" Zhou Qing let out a sigh of relief, turned his head and said, "Let's continue." ”

The group nodded and continued to follow.

Next, I saw countless mechanisms along the way, but they were all resolved by Zhou Qing one by one.

In fact, these organs are not a threat to Xu Bai, as long as the Vajra Heart Demon Body is opened, for now, the organs will be isolated.

But if it will have an effect on other people, then I don't know.

With Zhou Qing exploring the way in front, they walked very steadily, and after about another stick of incense, the woods in front of them finally opened up, and there was a feeling of spring in the willows.

This time it was a real open space, although this open space was not large, but in the middle of the open space, there were more than a dozen people in black standing.

The group of black-clothed people all covered their faces and couldn't see their faces clearly, but they stopped in the middle, obviously not wanting Xu Bai and them to pass.

"Kill them."

Among the men in black, there was one who was clearly the leader and spoke first.

There was no exchange, no scenes, and the meeting was about to go to war.

The man in black rushed over without hesitation, with a fierce momentum.

And the footwork and lineup they stepped on, Xu Bai saw his eyebrows.

"Formation, or a formation of four people." Xu Bai saw it at a glance, pulled out the ghost head knife, and rushed directly over, with bursts of black light rising from his body.

The group of men in black was divided into four parts, and each of them surrounded and killed the four of them.

Each one is not weak, and it also comes with a special formation.

Xu Bai and the others fell into a state of war.

When Xu Bai stepped out and rushed to the four black-clothed men for the first time, the scenery in front of him suddenly changed.

The ground moved, and in the blink of an eye, it had changed directions.

"It's a trap!"

The three words in his ears were Zhou Qing's voice, but in the blink of an eye, Zhou Qing's voice was getting farther and farther away, and gradually disappeared.

Xu Bai was very sure that in the moment just now, he had moved a long distance, as if the soil under his feet had changed dramatically.

"The technique of the mechanism is so wonderful, it seems that I will have to make a copy in the future." He thought to himself.

But obviously, now is not the time to think about this, the wind in his ears is even more violent, and the four of them have already attacked him in unison.

These four people are stepping on strange formations, and they have exquisite cooperation with each other, and they are very powerful.

"Boy, do you dare to come to the door at this time, do you really think that we don't dare to kill you?" One of the men in black made a disdainful sound.

They all knew Xu Bai, after all, the Eighth Prince had sent someone to assassinate him in the past, if it weren't for the fact that the Eighth Prince said that there was no need to assassinate again, they might still fight Xu Bai.

As for the assassination of Xu Bai, their idea was very simple, that is, the people who were sent out before were straw bales.

Even if it is the so-called Thousand-Faced Poison King, once his toxin is restrained, then everything else is mediocre.

But the four of them are different, each of them is a real seven-grade realm.

When the four of them become one, and after the formation bonus, even the sixth rank has to avoid its edge.

It was easy to kill the Jianghu man in front of him.

Thinking so, the attack has come.

All four of them were martial artists, but one of them had minored in the formation.

Just now, the dozen or so black-clothed people were divided into four parts, and they were all paired with people who were minor in the formation.

Due to the bonus of the formation, when they attacked, their power had already increased a lot.

But......

I have to say that sometimes people are too confident and not very good.

Xu Bai didn't even take out the ghost head knife, and a burst of black light rose from his body, blocking all the attacks of the four people outside.

The sound of gold and iron clashing came, and the four of them felt that they had been subjected to a powerful counterattack, and they all took a step back.

"His defense is very strong, everyone be careful, slowly grind with the formation." The man in black said to his three companions.

As soon as the words fell, Xu Bai's voice was heard.

"How is the strength of the four of you compared to the Thousand-Faced Poison King?" Xu Bai said mysteriously.

"What do you mean?" The man in black frowned.

"Your formation can improve in attack, defense, and speed, so that a few of you can have the possibility of defeating the strong with the weak, but your own inner is still the original internal." Xu Bai stretched out his hand, groped in the belt around his waist for a while, and soon found a small porcelain bottle.

After the man in black saw Xu Bai's movements, a bad feeling rose in his heart, but the next moment it was too late.

I saw Xu Bai open the cap of the bottle and raise a burst of powder.

Immediately after, under the encouragement of his true yuan power, he pulled out the ghost head knife on his waist and slammed it at these four people.

This was a volley, but due to the blessing of the True Yuan Force, a strong wind was generated, sweeping the powder in front of him towards the four black-clothed people.

The formation cooperates with their own strength, and they can prevent and dodge, but this is powder, and there is powder in the air, so they can't hide from the air, right?

At the beginning, the Thousand-Faced Poison King was specially prepared to do it on a windy day, which shows the importance of the wind.

The poison bears the wind, and the power increases suddenly.

In an instant, the poisonous powder had stuck to the man in black.

In less than a breath, the four men in black suddenly felt a sharp pain coming from their skin, which poured into their bodies from their skin and rampaged through their bodies.

They couldn't control it anymore and rolled on the ground, screaming as they rolled.

A hundred poisonous poisons, seven products will die if they are touched.

This is a trick in the full-level hundred poison true solution, but it is not the poison used by the half-baked poison king of the thousand faces.

The pain followed, and immediately after, the group of men in black died completely, leaving no breath behind.

The corpse's face was covered with blood, which seeped through the black cloth on the face and wet a large patch.

Xu Bai didn't want to use anything to change the stars, the true yuan power in his kidneys had to be kept in case of emergency, and now it seemed that this hundred poisonous poisons were the best way to break the game.

After all this, the surroundings fell silent again.

Xu Bai raised his head and looked at the moonlight in the sky.

They had already dispersed from the operation just now, and they were in the woods, and he couldn't tell what the current direction was.

After all, in the dense woods, it is the easiest place for a person to get lost, and the sense of direction here will be seriously weakened.

But...... Not a big problem.

When a person is lost in the wild, it is easy to get out as long as they find a reference.

Before this mechanism, Xu Bai had already set a position from the moon in the sky, and now he was a little east from the position of the full moon, and he only needed to walk back to his original position.

Thinking of this, Xu Bai pulled out the ghost head knife, and after identifying the direction, he walked in a straight line in the simplest and most direct way.

As long as there are trees in the way, they will be cut down.

Along the way, there were broken trees everywhere, and Xu Bai had cut a path.

……

The other side.

Yun Zihai, Qing Xue, and Zhou Qing were also isolated, and they were also caught in the battle.

Among them, the easiest and easiest to break the game is Yun Zihai.

After all, he is a real six-rank master, and after easily cracking the formation, he is also a smart person, and he uses the same method as Xu Bai to rush towards his original position.

In addition to Yun Zihai, Zhou Qing is not very difficult.

Layers of white mist appeared around Zhou Qing, and at the same time, all the sights around him were isolated.

Tengyun hand, the martial arts of the Zhou family, is still very insidious to say.

This kind of martial arts is very serious for the senses, and it is not that kind of hard-core martial arts at all, but it is a surprise to hit people.

The senses are not only visual, but also auditory and tactile.

In this layer of white mist, the four people on the opposite side were useless.

The senses were blocked, they didn't even know where the other party was, and they were blind to the power of the formation.

Immediately after, there were bursts of sounds in the white mist, and by the time the white mist slowly dissipated, the four men in black had turned into corpses.

Zhou Qing touched the cold sweat on his head, looked at the deep wound on his arm, and let out a sigh.

"I almost planted it here, but fortunately I restrained you."

Thinking of this, he quickly took out a medicine bottle from his arms and sprinkled the medicine on the wound.

The blood stopped, the wound was slowly healing, and this bottle of medicine was much better than the medicine of Yinyi.

After doing all this, he tore a piece of cloth from the hem of his clothes and tied the wound to prevent it from collapsing.

Next, he used a method similar to Xu Bai, using the full moon in the sky as a positioning and rushing towards the original position.

The three of them are no longer in danger, but the situation on Qingxue's side is different.

Qingxue is already in crisis.

The four black-clothed people in front of him combined, after using that kind of formation, they were already able to defeat the sixth-rank master, while Qingxue was only a seventh-grade master.

She doesn't have the strength of Xu Bai and Yun Zihai, nor does she have the ability to restrain the formation like Zhou Qing, she is just tough.

But because of this tough form, it makes her more and more dangerous.

The battle was scorched, and Qing Xue was holding a pair of silver thorns, always on the defensive.

At first she could attack, but then, as time went on, it was just defense.

But blind defense is the beginning of falling into a disadvantage, and once there is a mistake, it will be doomed.

Cold sweat appeared on Qingxue's forehead.

There was a moment of trance just now, and she almost caught the other party's way, if she hadn't reacted quickly and turned around in time, I'm afraid she would have been a corpse by now.

"If it goes on like this, it's really going to be buried here." Qingxue lowered her head and looked at the silver thorn in her left hand.

There is a pair of silver thorns, which are held in the left and right hands.

And the stabbing technique she learned was obtained from the royal family.

But few people know that there is a unique trick to this stabbing method.

"Just use one." Qingxue thought.

In the current situation, there is indeed no question of reluctance, and it is important to survive first.

Thinking of this, Qing Xue took a step back slightly, dodging the opponent's wave of attacks, and then, raised the silver thorn in her left hand and rotated her wrist at the same time.

With the movement of her wrist, the silver thorn in her left hand suddenly burst open, and countless silver needles as small as cow's hair shot out like a heavenly maiden's scattered flowers.

These silver thorns are actually composed of silver needles.

The sky is full of cow hair and silver needles.

The four blacks who were attacking hurried to defend.

But there were too many needles, and in just a moment, the four black-clothed people were penetrated by the silver needles and fell to the ground with a brush.

Qingxue breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the silver needles all over the ground, and smiled bitterly.

If the silver thorn was to use the silver needle, it would not be able to be recovered, and she only had one silver thorn left.

In fact, before she came, when she was assassinated by the Yun family, she was ready to use this trick, but then she thought about it.

Because the killer from the Yun family at that time was proficient in the technique of hidden weapons, and after the silver thorn rotated, it turned into a silver needle, and it was also launched in a hidden weapon technique, but it was just replaced with a mechanism as a carrier.

At that time, she didn't know if she could deal with it, but she tried to run away first, but she didn't expect that the escape was successful, so she didn't use this trick.

Now it seems that this trick has succeeded.

"I'll have to go find them, and if they spread out like this, they'll definitely be broken one by one." Qingxue said secretly in her heart.

Thinking so, she raised her head, looked at the circle in the sky, and with the full moon as a reference, rushed towards her original position.

She doesn't have Xu Bai's destructive power, and when she passes by some obstacles, she can only choose to bypass them to save her physical strength.

But fortunately, with the full moon in the sky as a reference, it is getting closer and closer to the destination.

The four of them were rushing to their original positions, and in a clearing not far from the four of them, a man in black was standing there, his eyes closed.

In front of the man in black, there was a clay pot, and inside the clay pot was yellow and clear earth.

The crockpot is very tall, about a meter high.

"They're all dead." The ghost sculptor looked at the soil in the bamboo basket and sighed, "Good death." ”

Inexplicable words came out of his mouth, and he didn't see any movement, just stretched out and took out the dirt from the crockpot with both hands.

The earth seemed to come to life in his hands, and with his continuous pinching, in the blink of an eye, sixteen small figures appeared on the ground.

These villains are very rough in their pinching, and they don't even have facial features, and if they weren't for the appearance of human beings, they might not be able to distinguish them.

The ghost sculptor looked at the clay figure on the ground, stood up, bowed in one direction, and said: "Your Royal Highness the Eighth Prince, the grace of the day will be repaid today, if you die, I hope that if Your Highness can remember it in the future, you will give me a pillar of incense." ”

Not far away, the Eighth Prince and the Thousand-Faced Fox glanced at each other and nodded at the same time.

"If you die, if my plan succeeds, I will make you a hero of history."

"That's for the best." The ghost sculptor said: "My daughter, please ask the Eighth Prince to take care of it." ”

The Eighth Prince continued to nod his head, indicating that there was no problem.

After the ghost sculptor got the answer, he didn't say anything more, picked up the clay pot and sixteen clay figures in front of him, and walked in the direction of Xu Bai and them.

When he walked farther and farther away, until the figure disappeared, the thousand-faced fox couldn't help but chuckle.

"What's so funny about that?" The Eighth Prince frowned.

"I'm just laughing, he's all in the dark from you to the end." The thousand-faced fox smiled: "You were the one who killed his whole family that day, and you were the one who saved his daughter, so I made a plan in exchange for a loyal person, but unfortunately, he didn't know until now that his daughter had already entered the coffin." ”

"This is the real emperor's technique, if you are not ruthless, how can it be done." The Eighth Prince's tone was unwavering.

"What an emperor's technique, I originally thought that the emperor was too ruthless to you royal members, but at least he still cares about the people, you are a person, after becoming the emperor, I am afraid that this common people will suffer with you." There was sarcasm in the Fox's tone.

"Isn't that what you monsters mean?" The Eighth Prince was equally sarcastic.

The thousand-faced fox didn't want to say more here, so he hurriedly asked him to prepare.

Seeing that the Thousand-Faced Fox did not argue with him, the Eighth Prince felt particularly bored, and looked up at the full moon in the sky, waiting for the time to come.

……

In the woods.

Xu Bai met with the other three, and was a little relieved after he was sure that everyone was not injured, and only after Zhou Qing had a color on his body.

"This star really wants to retire"

Especially when he saw that Qingxue's waist was only a handful of silver thorns, revealing that you really have a back hand.

"Let's move on." Qingxue stretched out her white and slender fingers and rubbed her forehead.

She also understands Xu Bai's personality, and sometimes she seems to be out of the ordinary, so she doesn't want to drift the topic at this time.

Xu Bai didn't chat, he just teased, and after hearing Qingxue's reply, he looked at the woods in front of him.

"It shouldn't be far, right?"

This sentence was said to Yun Zihai.

Yun Zihai recalled the place described in the history of Shengxian County, pointed ahead, and said, "This is the direction, and after walking for about half a pillar of incense, we will reach our destination." ”

"Then let's go, when I find that guy, I'll have to let him see how awesome." Xu Bai retracted his gaze and prepared to move in that direction.

But at this moment, voices sounded around him.

"Whoa...... Wow...... Whoop ......"

The sound came from all directions, like the grinding sound of someone walking in the woods.

"Be careful." Xu Bai pressed his hand on the handle of the Ghost Head Knife, and his eyes narrowed.

Yun Zihai and the others did not hesitate, and made a defensive posture one after another, looking around.

The strange sound sounded only for a moment, and after a while, the sound stopped, and the person who made the sound appeared in front of them.

Sixteen men in black, no more, no less, were the same people who had fought them separately before.

These men in black have lost their breath of life and have become corpses, but they still retain their human movements.

Around their necks, there was a clay figurine that was pierced by red thread and swayed from side to side as they walked.

When the men in black appeared, they stopped where they were and surrounded the four of them.

After a while, a voice rang out.

"You may not be able to leave."

The ghost sculptor carried the clay pot and walked out of the darkness.

At this moment, the ghost sculptor has changed.

He was no longer clean, but a thick layer of dirt had floated on his body, and the crockpot in his hand was empty, and there was no dirt in it.

"Ghost Sculptor!" Yun Zihai saw the dirt and frowned when he thought of the identity of the person in front of him.

"Smack!"

The ghost sculptor didn't even want to say a word, he raised the crockpot in his hand and slammed it on the ground with a snapping sound.

With the sound of shattering, the crockpot shattered and exploded on the ground.

At this moment, the corpses of the men in black moved.

The clay figurines around their necks are melting.

The melted clay figurine melts into the corpse's body, wrapping the corpse's chest.

In just a moment, a thick layer of mud floated at the place of their hearts.

An eerie aura emanated from the corpse, chilling.

"Capture the thief and capture the king first!"

Xu Bai didn't wait for the other party's big move to swing forward, reached into the money bag, grabbed a handful of copper coins, and used the technique of maple leaves like rain.

The copper coin was wrapped in black light, and directly pierced the ghost sculptor's whole body.

Blood flowed down and on top of the dirt on his body.

The next moment, Xu Bai took two steps forward and cut off the head of the ghost sculptor with one sword.

Everything happened so fast that in the flash of lightning, the ghost sculptor had fallen to the ground, without the breath of life.

The headless corpse was bleeding, and the head was gurgling and rolling with an eerie smile on its face.

It's quick and easy.

But all this happened too easily, which made Xu Baizhi frown, feeling that something was wrong.

There is always a sequence in everything, and there is also a clear hierarchy.

This man appeared later than the group of men in black at the beginning, and was obviously stronger, but now he was easily beheaded, all this is too abnormal.

Sure enough, as soon as he had this idea, the headless corpse on the ground moved.

Blood and dirt mixed together, detached from the headless corpse, surging on the ground as if it were alive.

Immediately afterwards, the corpses of the men in black also began to move, but they did not attack Xu Bai and the others, but collided with each other.

After the initial changes, the corpses of the men in black became particularly fragile, like ceramics.

After a violent collision, a puff of dirt came out of the fragments, and then as if it was alive, it merged together, and surged towards the dirt on the headless corpse.

It all happened so fast, from just moving to fusing together, there was only one breathless time.

In the blink of an eye, a huge clay sculpture with a height of three meters appeared.

"Be careful, the ghost sculptor's method of changing his life, he will always kill the life in front of him until he runs out of dirt." Yun Zihai shouted.

He has read a lot of books and understands more, so he naturally knows what the situation in front of him is.

The so-called method of changing lives is a method of dragging the enemy into death together when faced with a desperate situation.

The Ghost Sculptor is dead.

But to live in another way, this is the secret method of the ghost sculptor.

This kind of secret method is extremely uncommon.

Except when life and death are really at stake, there is no chance to even escape, so the ghost sculptor will use this secret method and die with the enemy.

"When you meet, you die as a respect, right?" Xu Bai smacked his lips and said, "It seems that he is quite loyal." ”

When the enemy in front of him, which was more than three meters tall, took shape, a huge pressure crushed towards everyone, like a sea of mountains, which made people's hearts heavy.

This is the clay figure after fusing all the men in black, and even fusing the strength of the ghost sculptor before his death.

At this moment, the strength of this clay figure is increasing at an extremely terrifying speed.

Jiupin ...... Eight Grades...... Seven Grades...... Six products!

Six products are the pinnacle.

This is the strength of the pinnacle of the real six grades, not relying on the so-called formation, which is made up randomly.

"Guys, don't hide anything anymore, and do your best." Clouds from the sea road.

At the peak of the six grades, even the strength of the six grades of Yun Zihai felt that there was a huge pressure sweeping over.

Yun Zihai threw the book in his hand into the air, and the pages circled around him.

Qingxue pulled out the silver thorn and acted on guard.

Zhou Qing raised his hands, and bursts of clouds and mist surrounded his whole body.

Xu Bai used the true yuan power in his body, black light emerged from him, and the Vajra Heart Demon Body was urged to the extreme.

He looked around and said slowly, "Up!" ”
