Early the next morning, ten men quietly approached the site where they had been in distress the previous night.

This time, Tang Ping and Li Jian flew in front, first, Li Jian's sense of power could detect danger in advance; Second, this time I came close here to verify Tang Ping's statement last night, the main thing is to find the existence of the three demon beasts, among the ten people, only Tang Ping is proficient in spiritual arts, so she also flew in front.

The rest followed closely.

The sun is shining in the daytime, the scenery of this valley is not like the weird and gloomy last night, the hills on both sides are densely wooded, the green is thick, the valley is overgrown with shrubs, dotted with unknown wildflowers and berries everywhere, the mountain wind blows, the branches and leaves rustle, and the wildflowers sway in the wind, it is also a good place, but ten people have experienced the terrifying illusion of last night, and it is extremely dangerous to enter it, so as several people go deeper and deeper into the small valley, The expressions on everyone's faces became more and more nervous.

"Stop!"

After flying for a while, Tang Ping stopped everyone, then pointed to the front and said:

"We were here last night in the illusion, right?"

A few people who were still conscious at the time looked carefully ahead, confirming that it was Lu Shuang's rattle, and then many people fell from the air, and they all nodded yes.

"Then be careful, I guess the farthest place ahead of you is what the illusion can affect."

The next thing is to look for possible traces of phantom butterflies, and if you find this demon insect, you can prove that Tang Ping's statement last night was correct. According to the records in the classics of the Imperial Spirit Sect, although demon insects such as phantom butterflies live in groups, they do not build nests, but only inhabit the leaves of trees, so after preventing everyone from moving forward, Tang Ping carefully searched for it little by little in the nearby woods.

However, it was Li Jian who first discovered the abnormality.

"Miss Tang," Li Jian raised his hand and said, "Oh, starting from that tree and going inside, there are a lot of things on each tree, I don't know if it's the kind of phantom butterfly you said, but it must be this kind of thing that was densely covered in the air last night." ”

Li Jian said this, immediately attracted everyone's attention, and they all looked there, Tang Ping leaned over even more cautiously and cautiously, and finally, not far from the tree, Tang Ping found that on the back of the dense leaves of the tree, there were many demon insects with green bodies, wings folded, and motionless, but it didn't look like a butterfly.

If you don't count the wings, the insect is only the size of a person's thumb belly.

"Not a phantom butterfly." Tang Ping said softly.

At this moment, I don't know if this demon insect was alert or who made a noise to alarm them, "whew", the branches and leaves of the tree flipped for a while, as if a strong wind blew away the leaves of the tree, a green wing flapped, and countless of that kind of demon insects flew out and came towards everyone!

Then, everyone noticed, and a pale green mist rose up along with the countless flying insects.

"Hurry back!" Tang Ping said hurriedly.

In the end, in the daytime, everyone was cautious, so under Tang Ping's order, ten people fled there quickly.

And those green demon insects couldn't catch up, and they had long lost the trace of the intruder, and after circling for a while, they fell back to the tree.

"Isn't that a phantom butterfly?" Luo Ying asked, she was naturally concerned about whether Tang Ping's inference last night was correct.

"It's not a phantom butterfly, it's a demon insect called the green charm moth, it's more advanced than the phantom butterfly, but the means of dealing with people are almost the same, the green mist we saw just now is the fine powder on its wings, if it is scattered, if the monk accidentally inhales it, it will also fall into its trick, although that kind of thing is not fatal, but it can also make people crazy, if there is an illusion in front of you, it will inevitably affect people's five senses, so ......"

"So what you said last night is true?" Luo Ying asked again.

"Not bad. I'm sure there's a mirage in there, and that's the nightmare underground, and somehow these three things can get together, and they've become a harmful accomplice. Tang Ping said.

"That means you can break them one by one?" Lu Shuang asked, she remembered that Tang Ping said last night that if it was really the same as what she said, there would naturally be a way to deal with it.

"Well, there is a way," Tang Ping said confidently, and then looked at Qian Chao, "Qian boy, it's up to you next." ”

And what can the money tide do?

Nature is the formation.

……

Tang Ping put her hand into the storage bag and rummaged through it, and finally took out a demon pill that was not very big.

There are many spirit beasts on her body, and all spirit beasts except Xiaobai and Rhubarb have to be fed with demon pills regularly to help them grow, so after the five people came out to hunt demon beasts, the demon pills all belonged to her, and she has saved a lot so far.

"Ah, boy Qian, you can arrange a formation to let the aura in the spirit stone quickly diffuse, then you should also be able to arrange a formation to let the aura of this demon pill also emit out, right?" Tang Ping asked.

"Hmm...... It should be about the same. Qian Chao replied.

"That's good, this demon pill is actually similar to the spirit stone, but it has a strong attraction to demon beasts and demon insects, and then it depends on your formation to get rid of all the green magic moths here."

"How attractive is this thing to those demon insects?" Qian Chao pinched the demon pill and asked.

"Well, it's like having a thick book on your desk that you haven't read!" Tang Ping's analogy is very appropriate, which makes several partners who are familiar with Qian Chao's preferences laugh when they hear it.

"Alright, I'll set up the formation."

Qian Chao also thought for a while before he started, but instead of arranging the formation, he took out his table and began to make the talisman used in the formation under the gaze of everyone.

The formation designed by Qian Chao is divided into three layers, which are interlocked.

The most central is a small formation, just like the one they used when they cooperated to open the first ruin, in the place where the spiritual energy is poor and thin, the formation cannot run, Qian Chao arranged a formation at that time, and replaced it with the spiritual energy in the spirit stone, but now what is used in this small formation is not the spirit stone, but the demon pill that Tang Ping handed over to him. Qian Chao tried and changed at the same time, and after a few times, it was done, that small formation could emit the breath of the demon pill far away, and the last time it almost caused those green magic moths to pounce directly in groups, so frightened that he hurriedly stopped the formation.

The second layer of the formation is a locking spirit array, the range is not small, this kind of formation money tide is used the most, so I won't say more.

And the third layer of the formation is the largest, including the first two formations, Qian Chao's plan is to wait for those green charm moths to be attracted by the demon pill breath and gather over, they will be forbidden by the lock spirit array, and they will not be able to move there, and then after all the green magic moths are attracted over, it is when he launches the third formation, this formation has also been used, that is, when Yan Shuang was attacked for the first time, the formation used by Qian Chao to get rid of the huge blood puppet, as long as it is launched, the formation is a place of fire, scorching heat, In an instant, all the demon insects inside can be turned into ashes.

After finding a vacant lot, not far from those green moths, Qian Chao began to arrange it.

In this process, Tang Ping also felt that it was inappropriate several times, not that there was anything wrong with Qian Chao's formation, but that the formation was a little small, she felt that the number of green magic moths here must be amazing, and urged Qian Chao to change it a few times, so that the formation was arranged bigger and bigger, until she felt satisfied.

Tang Ping made a request on the side, and Qian Chao modified the formation according to what she said, and even made some talismans for the formation to Tang Ping's satisfaction halfway, this situation shows that Qian Chao and Luo Ying are different in the formation technique, simply put, Qian Chao's arrangement of the formation is very flexible, and the corresponding changes can be made due to time, place, and matter, so as to achieve the best effect, and Luo Ying's formation is much more rigid, and she can only arrange the formation she has learned according to the original arrangement, if there is any need for change, it is not what Luo Ying is good at.

"Okay," Tang Ping saw that the Qian Chao formation was properly arranged, so he said to everyone, "Let's all retreat again, so as not to startle those demon insects, and also pay attention to the surroundings, the aura of this demon pill is strong, but there can't be demon beasts from other places who are also attracted to make trouble." ”

……

The formation is activated.

Except for Tang Ping, the other nine people could only watch, and the little guys in the spirit beast bag on Tang Ping's body noticed the tempting aura outside, so they refused to settle down one by one, which made Tang Ping feel appeased for a while.

Soon there was movement.

The demon insects closest to the formation were the first to feel the temptation of that breath, and they flapped their small wings impatiently, and flew over from the trees in a hurry, without even circling, and fell straight towards the demon pill in the center of the formation, and then as long as they landed there, they immediately remained motionless.

And then, as the aura of the demon pill strengthened by the formation continued to spread, the sound of "whooshing" became denser and denser, from the formation almost all the way to the place where the ruins were, in the air as high as a tree, like a green stream rushing over, it was all green moths, flying in front of one by one can still see a distinct, to the back can only see a piece of green tumbling and pounced, I can't tell how many such demon insects there are, It was as if the leaves of a hundred and ten trees were blown off their fingers by the wind at the same time, and then gathered together and flew over. Among them, there are some green moths that are significantly larger, the usual ones are only the size of a thumb belly, and the big ones are actually the size of a palm, which also looks very amazing.

Followed by a puff of green smoke that began to thicken, and when Tang Ping saw it, he immediately asked people to find an upside position to hide.

Whenever this kind of demon insect fell, it was immediately affected by the Locking Spirit Array, and it was immediately motionless, but there was a steady stream of green charm moths falling down behind it, so in the very center of the formation, where the demon pill was located, a cloud of green charm moths was quickly piled up. Although the lock spirit array is powerful, it also has shortcomings, that is, it will only be affected if you step into it, and now the demon pill is full of green charm moths, and the demon insects that fall on the top of the pill are actually not affected by the formation, but it is precisely because of this that they can't touch the demon pill that is buried under the body of their companions, so they are anxious one by one, crawling around quickly, trying to find a gap to drill down from between the same kind, but if they drill down, they will immediately be affected by the formation, and they will be motionless as if they are dead, In this way, at the center of the formation, the pile of green demon insects will pile up more and more, and after a little time, the pile of green will gradually rise.

"Oh my God!" Yan Xuan was stunned to see the rising pile of green, seeing that the thickness was almost half a foot from less than a foot, and it happened in a short period of time, "How many demon insects are there here!" ”

Tang Ping looked at Qian Chao and said:

"Isn't it still a little small?"

"It's okay," Qian Chao said, "as long as it's in the third formation, even if it's flying in the air, it can be dealt with." ”

It is already six or seven feet high, like a large pile of green leaves piled up together, and it is still rising, this scene makes Luo Ying and the others also surprised, so many demon insects, if they surround everyone, flutter their wings in unison, under the influence of that green mist, I am afraid that ten people can only hold their breath and flee, but now with the help of this formation, they will be like moths throwing fire into the trap, this formation is still wonderful! Luo Ying thought so, even if she was not as good as the money boy around her, it seemed that she would have to study it in the future.

"Look there!" Yan Shuang suddenly pointed with his hand.

Everyone's eyes looked over, and when they saw it clearly, they couldn't help but gasp, and what Yan Shuang was pointing to was actually a huge green moth with a body like a fat goose, which almost flew at the back, flapping its wings and flying to the top of the formation.

"Money boy, it's almost over, the biggest one should be their leader, if it dies, this group of green moths will be scattered as birds and beasts." Tang Ping said.

"Good!" Qian Chao responded.

As the green charm moth the size of a fat goose flew in, Qian Chao's hand made a trick and waited.

Obviously, the largest green moth has an identity, since it flew closer, many green moths have avoided it, although they are reluctant to fly away, but obviously do not dare to compete with it.

Then the big moth swooped down.

"It's now!" Tang Ping said.

Qian Chao's trick also changed at the same time......

The scorching waves are coming!

However, the scorching wind that ten people could feel was already the overflow of the power of the formation, and they were far away, so they would naturally not be harmed, but at the same time as Qian Chao's technique changed, a red light suddenly rose in the formation with a radius of more than 20 zhang, like a pillar of light, if it was at night, the sound was bound to be very amazing, even if it was in the daytime, this red light was enough to make people stunned, and within the scope of the entire formation, all the red flames were boiling, shining into the sky like hot light.

And at the moment when the formation was activated, the ten people seemed to hear a sharp chirp, but it was only for a moment, and it was estimated that it was the scream of the leader of the green charm moth the size of a fat goose before he died.

Although there are countless green charm moths, under the power of Qian Chao's formation, they can't support it for even a moment, let alone flap their wings and escape, together with the leader of the green charm moth, they almost all turned into ashes in an instant.

There is a piece of terracotta in the formation, and there is nothing left!

Then Qian Chao continued to change his tricks and stopped the formation.

"Good guy, good boy, it's all gone, hehe!" Lu Pingchuan endured the residual high temperature there and took a closer look.

Not only are the green moths that were either flying or piled on the ground from before now gone, but even the previous grass and trees and stones in the formation are gone, all of them have turned into powder, and there is only a piece of fine sand within the range of the formation!

"That's amazing!" Wen Yuan whispered.

"Well done, money boy!" Luo Ying praised.

唐萍 says:

"The method we set last night to break them one by one is now halfway there, get rid of these demon insects, and then go find the mirage."

"Let's go!"

……

Ahead is the location of the brightly lit and lively manor last night.

But as far as the eye can see, it is just a mess of rocks and grass, and there is a shadow of a manor there.

"Is there a nightmare under our feet?" Yan Xuan looked at his feet and said with some worry.

"Don't worry, Sister Yan, although that nightmare has become the climate, but it is naturally afraid of fire and light, and it does not dare to show itself in the daytime, now, the top priority is to find the mirage." Tang Ping said.

"Won't it really come out?" Lu Shuang also asked, and it could be seen that she was also a little afraid of the nightmare.

"Don't worry."

"Senior Brother Qian just got rid of so many demon insects, do you think the nightmare down there will notice it?" Wen Yuan was equally worried.

"Naturally, it will perceive it, but it is by nature, and it can only lie dormant in the ground during this day." Tang Ping said.

Li Jian had already sensed the mirage's hiding place, stretched out his hand, and said:

"Ah, there it is."

"No......" People stared in the direction of Qian Chao's finger for a while, there was only a mess of rocks, and there was no place to hide.

"It's just a trick," Li Jian moved forward a little more, and then pointed again, "Ah, the largest mountain rock at the foot of the mountain is the innermost one, and the stone is conjured by it, and I don't know if there is no demon insect to help it or if there are many of us, it probably wants to be able to fool the past now." ”

This time, people saw clearly the big stone that Li Jian was referring to.

"I'm afraid this thing should also become some climate, how can I get rid of it?" Lu Shuang asked.

"A sword?" Yan Shuang said that he was going to do it.

"Hmm......" Tang Ping thought for a while, turned his head to Lu Pingchuan and said, "Brother Lu, you once said that you have the means to deal with this kind of thing?" ”

Indeed, as early as the first time everyone went out on the third floor of qi refining, they encountered the big and small wind snakes that could make illusions, and although there was no danger in that fight, it was also chaotic, and after going back, Kang Pu heard that he specially taught Lu Pingchuan a means of breaking illusions, called "Suppression Roar", and took him out to find a mirage for Lu Pingchuan to practice, and as a result, under the roar, the mirage was killed immediately (see Volume IV: Test Feather, Thirty-Seven: Suppression Roar Killing Mirage). However, this method can break the illusion, but it can't prevent the illusion, and the fragrance of wine and coriander in the illusion at that time is what Lu Pingchuan likes, how did he know that it was the fine powder on the wings of the green charm moth, and he couldn't help but sniff hard, so he hit the trick, and the result was that he couldn't use the means, Tang Ping heard Lu Pingchuan talk about the mirage that he roared and killed the mirage, and he was very curious at the time, but now he didn't mean to let Lu Pingchuan show off, he just wanted to see it seriously.

"Hey, hey, I'm coming!" Lu Pingchuan became excited: "Which stone?" ”

"I'll go over with Brother Lu." Li Jian said.

In Lu Pingchuan's opinion, it was a stone the size of a small house, but Brother Li said that it was the mirage illusion, so it must be, after all, Lu Pingchuan had the experience of mirage illusion earlier, and knew the means of that kind of demon beast, so he took a sharp breath after standing still......

The people watching from behind heard a "hissing" inhalation sound from a distance, Qian Chao and the others were not surprised, but Luo Ying and the others were wondering, and suddenly heard a loud roar!

"Whew!"

A cloud of sand and dust rolled out with the sound and spread in all directions!

The big stone disappeared after a few moments, revealing a small hole in the mountain wall.

"Hey, hey!" Lu Pingchuan's cheerful voice came: "Dead!" ”

When the people heard this, they hurriedly flew there.

The hole in the mountain wall is not deep, and there is only one dead beast in it, but this thing is not small, it is nearly two feet higher than Lu Pingchuan, it is a dark brown, wet and sticky, ugly big toad-like demon beast, the two big eyes in front of it are like bowls, the belly is miserable white, and the dark brown, sticky back is actually full of dense eyes of different sizes, but after receiving Lu Pingchuan's roar, all the eyes of this thing in the body burst open, When everyone rushed to see it, all the eyes had black sticky juice flowing out, and they felt uncomfortable when they saw it.

"Enough of it?" Lu Pingchuan said and pulled the head of the big toad down, and a short knife with cold light in the other hand stabbed it, and cut it in the middle of the top of the guy's head, and immediately the colorful inside flowed out, Lu Pingchuan didn't care, and with the other hand, he reached in and groped carefully, seeing that Luo Ying, Wen Yuan, Lu Shuang, Yan Shuang and others felt uncomfortable in their stomachs, and quickly turned around to avoid it.

"Hehe, hey, it's not small!" As Lu Pingchuan spoke, everyone turned around and saw him take out a goose egg-sized demon pill from the mirage's head, full of fishy sticky dirt, Qian Chao hurriedly handed over a piece of linen, Lu Pingchuan wiped the demon pill with the linen cloth and threw it to Tang Ping, and Tang Ping took it with a smile.

Luo Ying eased her senses, and then said:

"Now that there's only that nightmare left, what should we do about it?"

Tang Ping was wiping the demon pill with a finer linen cloth, and after listening to Luo Ying's words, she asked puzzledly:

"Why do you have to deal with the Nightmares?"

"What...... What about the three demon beasts, now that they have eliminated two, there are only Earth Nightmares left? ”

"The Nightmare didn't dare to come out to make trouble during the day, and now that everything that can threaten us has been eliminated, it won't be long before the money boy opens the ruins?"

When Lu Shuang heard this, he hurriedly asked:

"That'...... What if? ”

"Don't worry, well, if you're still worried, then let the money kid arrange a fiery formation around here to suppress it, and take care of the nightmare that the nightmare won't dare to come out......"

Seeing that Luo Ying, Wen Yuan and the others still looked incredulous, Tang Ping added:

"I dare to pack a ticket!"
