Late at night, Lu Xuan was meditating and refining his true qi when the door suddenly rang.

"Big brother, something happened!" Yang Chong's somewhat anxious voice came from outside the door.

"What's wrong?" Lu Xuan frowned, got up and opened the door, and looked at Yang Chong.

"None of the brothers sent out have come back until now!" Yang Chong said with a solemn expression.

"Come in and say!" Lu Xuan brought the person into the house and frowned, "What's the matter?" ”

"I sent a total of ten people, a team of two people for each person, let them go along the road to investigate, if there is any abnormality, report it immediately, if not, come back before dark, now it's almost time, but none of them have returned!" When Yang Chong said this, his face was a little ugly.

"Tell the brothers to get together, don't run around, I'll go out and have a look." Lu Xuan got up, none of his brothers were weak, and they weren't together, they could wipe people down silently, they were already extraordinary powers.

"I've got them together, I'll go with you!" Yang Chong also followed.

The two immediately went out and went straight out of the city.

An hour later, outside the city gates.

"Big brother, what's going on? It's back here again!? Ghost hitting the wall? Yang Chong looked at the city in front of him in shock, looking at the normal city during the day, but it was very gloomy at night, with more than 3,000 families living there, but it was as quiet as a dead city.

But most importantly, they are clearly running in the opposite direction.

"Formation!" Lu Xuan rubbed his temples, after staying in the mortal pile for a long time, he almost forgot that this world was actually a world with a high ceiling.

"Formation? Big brother can break the law? Yang Chong looked at Lu Xuan expectantly.

"I learned all my internal skills from you." Lu Xuan glanced at him helplessly, but now Dan Chenzi is not at home, so he has no place to ask.

"So what should we do now?" Yang Chong said dejectedly.

"Since people don't want us to leave, then go back, it's best to find the old county order." Lu Xuan also encountered this kind of thing for the first time, this should belong to the scope of cultivation, he thought that he would meet those immortal cultivators in the future, but he didn't expect to encounter it so soon.

This is obviously beyond Lu Xuan's cognition, he can only wait for Lao Dao to come back, and then see if Lao Dao has any way?

The two of them crossed the city walls and entered the city, but when they left, the city was empty, and when they returned, the only main road was already crowded with people.

But the strange thing is that so many people gathered together, without a sound, one by one, like puppets with strings, holding white candles, mechanically wandering around a specific trajectory in the city.

"Big brother, this ......" Yang Chong felt that his scalp was a little numb, and when he saw these people during the day, he only felt that their qi and blood were a little lacking, and his eyes were too dull, but at night, under the imprint of white candles, it was like a lonely ghost wandering in the city, this scene was really a bit terrifying.

Lu Xuan didn't speak, he jumped on the roof, and walked all the way in the direction of these people, he has always been bold, when he encounters this kind of thing, it is not his style to stay still, he wants to see what is going on?

Following the direction of these people's actions, Lu Xuan did not deliberately hide his figure, and finally came to the county office!

In the courtyard in front of the hall, a blood-colored three-legged tripod stands in the center, and a sharp short knife hangs above the three-legged tripod, and the people who bypass the three-legged tripod will wipe their hands on the short knife, and let the blood fall into the tripod along the tip of the knife.

Those who have donated blood will leave on their own and return to their homes, still looking numb, as if they have no pain.

"No wonder the people here are all deficient in blood and energy." Yang Chong came to Lu Xuan's side, looking at this strange scene, he felt a little chill in his heart: "Big brother, don't we hide?" ”

"Such a big battle, it should be a higher-grade monk, our every move, it may be under the noses of others, hiding ...... It doesn't make sense! Lu Xuan shook his head and sighed, "Let's go, go back." ”

Now the only one who can help is the old Taoist, Lu Xuan doesn't expect to be able to kill the people behind him, he only hopes to escape from here with people.

Back at his residence, Lu Xuan sent Yang Chong to rest, while he continued to meditate and practice qi, and at the same time waited for Lao Dao to come back to see if he had a way to crack it.

When the time here is almost dawn, on the other side of the starry sky, Dan Chenzi has only returned, and it seems that it is still dusk.

"Senior, something happened!" Mao Xuan sat at the door with five big characters on his head, looking at Dan Chenzi with blank eyes.

"What's wrong again?" Dan sat down, and the sorrow on his face couldn't be hidden.

"Seniors seem to have a hard time?" Mao Xuan asked curiously with a barrage.

"You can't help after saying it, let's talk about it, the old way may be counting on you for the rest of my life!" The old man shook his head decadently.

At this time, in fact, it is best not to disturb others, but the current situation is a little critical, and Mao Xuan can't manage it so much, so he immediately used the method of image to replay what he experienced tonight in front of Lao Dao's eyes.

"What you encountered before was the Lost Trace Formation, although there are slight differences, but this kind of rough and shallow formation is almost the same wherever it is placed, but what kind of thing does he use to set up the formation?" Dan Chenzi stroked his beard and frowned.

"Isn't it a spirit stone?" Mao Xuan remembered that Lao Dao had told him.

"This formation is actually the same as practice, people absorb the qi of heaven and earth, and finally return to the dantian through the meridians and quench it, or use it to quench the body, different practice routes, the effect is also different, just like you who practice martial arts, some of the exercises are cultivated with their own sharpness, and some are extremely hot, and the attack techniques adapted to these exercises are also different, but one thing remains the same, that is, you need to absorb the aura of the outside world."

"No matter what kind of Tao you cultivate, you have to keep absorbing power, and this formation is the same, some formations can operate on their own, which has the effect of gathering spirits, but even so, there needs to be something to control its circulation, the human body controls the meridians, and the formation does not have this, so it needs foreign objects to help."

"The most common is the spirit stone, you can also form a formation with your own true element, or some spiritual objects, such as magic weapons, spiritual weapons, if you have the ability, you can use immortal weapons, among which the spirit stone is the most common and the easiest to obtain, although I can't feel your maze array, but the evil spirit is forested, and there is no sense of spirit stone, it should not be a spirit stone."

"What are they doing here?" Mao Xuan put the picture on the three-legged tripod.

"Blood Sacrifice!" Lao Dao glanced at it and said disdainfully: "It should be some kind of evil cultivator nearby, who controlled these mortals with secret methods and let them provide them with blood food, this person is smart, you shouldn't feel the existence of luck here, right?" ”

Lu Xuan nodded, the influence of the Unified Religion is extremely great, and the believers are all over Kyushu, even in the cities of the imperial court, they can feel a trace of luck belonging to the Unified Religion.

But in this Xizhuang, he didn't feel it at all, he thought that it was isolated from the world, and he didn't know the existence of the Guiyi Sect, but now it seems that it is not.

"Senpai, how do I get out?" Mao Xuan asked.

He doesn't care about any evil cultivation here for the time being, his current goal is to exterminate Sun Fang's army and completely control Shangyang County, and the matter of evil cultivation can be talked about later.

"It's not hard to get you out alone." Dan Chenzi didn't care.

"I mean break the formation!" Mao Xuan hurriedly changed the barrage.

The most elite men and horses under his command are all here, what's the use of running out with a bare-bones commander?

"It's not difficult to break the formation, there are not many things used in this Lost Array array, find one and destroy it, and the array will be broken, but the evil cultivator will also detect it, and the Ten Thousand Blood Sacrifice is at least an evil cultivator in the Jindan Realm, are you sure you want to break it?" Dan Chenzi examines Lu Xuan.

Six products?

Mao Xuan was silent, if it was the Confucian Six Grades, Lu Xuan could say loudly that the Six Grades were rubbish, but for the Six Grades of Martial Arts or the Six Grades of Taoism, Lu Xuan, a seventh-rank martial artist who had just broken through, was still self-aware, but if he didn't break it, it would be equivalent to asking him to give up these brothers who were born and died?

After a moment of silence, a line of words flashed in Mao Xuan's head: "Please teach me senior!" ”

"Huh?" Dan Chenzi looked at Mao Xuan with some surprise.

"These brothers of mine were born and died with me, fought on the battlefield, and lived and died, but if these brothers who were born and died were abandoned in order to survive, Lu would rather die!"

Mao Xuan raised his head, and a pair of cat's eyes actually made Dan Chenzi feel a posture of looking at death as home.

"Is it worth it?" Dan Chenzi frowned and said, he has practiced for many years, and most of the things he has seen are unscrupulous for the sake of profit, brothers kill each other, father and son are against the goal, and it is the first time I have seen someone like Lu Xuan who is willing to sacrifice his life for his brother.

"It's not worth it, Lao Tzu rebelled, I didn't think about how long I could live, I might be able to live if I left my brother, but I'm afraid I won't be able to get through this hurdle in this life!" Lu Xuan's body pulled the placket of his clothes, got up, and held the Fang Tian Painting Halberd in his hand.

"It's not big or small, who is it with!?" As soon as the words fell, Mao Xuan was bounced out by Lao Dao's finger and hit the wall, it hurt, but he was not injured, Lao Dao was obviously not really angry, but he had a bag on his head.

"Slip of the tongue, habit." Mao Xuan stretched out his cat's paws and wanted to rub his head, but found that he couldn't reach it, and a barrage appeared on the bag on his head.

"Okay, this will help you break the formation, don't blame me if you die!" Dan Chenzi sighed and said.

"Senior, why don't you just help me find that evil cultivator?" Lu Xuan's heart moved, and he typed.

"What do you want to do?" Dan Chenzi looked at Lu Xuan unexpectedly.

"I'm thinking about it, since the other party is at least a Jindan realm cultivator, and it's easy to catch me, why do you have to bother so much? Just arrest me, why hide in the dark and dare not come out to meet people. Lu Xuan squinted and said, "Could it be that he was injured?" ”

"It's possible, for some evil cultivators, the Blood Sacrifice Method can not only improve their cultivation, but also speed up the recovery from injuries!" Lao Dao nodded and pondered: "It is true that some evil cultivators will use this way to recover their injuries, and if they are injured, they will require a long-term blood sacrifice of ten thousand people, and the injuries may not be light, but what if not?" ”

"Then gamble your life! If so, I live, if not, I die! Mao Xuan looked up, his eyes flashed with excitement, he liked this feeling of playing with his life.

"You're really crazy!" Dan Chenzi looked at this kitten, shook his head and sighed, he pinned his hopes on this kid, and he didn't know if he could get back to his roots.

But only with this kind of character can there be a slight possibility of becoming a star master!

At that moment, Lu Xuan returned all his consciousness to his body, but the jade plate was pasted on the door of Mao Xuan's brain, and Dan Chenzi could directly see the scene in front of Lu Xuan through Mao Xuan, and at the same time inform Lu Xuan of his judgment through Mao Xuan.

Yang Chong was not notified this time, Yang Ao was here, and the two could join forces, but Yang Chong's words, he couldn't interfere with this level of battle.

Under the guidance of Dan Chenzi, Lu Xuan ran all the way and came to the position of the county government again.

The blood sacrifice is over, and the city is once again in its ghostly form.

"Senior, are you sure you're here?" Lu Xuan frowned and came to the three-legged tripod and looked inside, but there was not a trace of blood in it.

"This tripod is a magic weapon, and it is also one of the array eyes, you move it three feet to the left!" Dan Chenzi affirmed.

"Good!"

Lu Xuan came to the right side of the three-legged tripod, held down the three-legged tripod with his left hand, and suddenly exerted force.

Lu Xuan's acquired realm is nourished by the Quenching Pill, and when he is in the acquired realm, he can wrestle with Guo Chang of the innate realm without falling behind, and now he has stepped into the transformation realm, and the strength of one arm is enough to ten thousand catties, even if it is a solid bronze tripod, it is enough to lift it easily, but the three-legged tripod in front of him does not move at all.

"Idiot, this is a magic weapon, you find Xun and use your true qi to push!" Dan Chenzi looked at Lu Xuan's operation a little speechlessly.

"Where's the Tatsumi?" Lu Xuan was at a loss.

"Listen to my command, walk three feet forward, and then one foot to the left, and that is the position of the Xun position! When you come here, you are equivalent to integrating into the formation, and you can use the power of the formation to promote this tripod, otherwise with brute force alone, you will be difficult to push with the other party. ”

Lu Xuan came to the Xun position according to his words, and once again urged the true qi to enter the three-legged tripod.

In an instant, he saw that the blood on the three-legged tripod was flourishing, and wisps of blood and qi continued to surge into Lu Xuan's body, and in an instant, Lu Xuan only felt that the qi and blood in his body were not under his control, and flowed towards the tripod.

"Bloodthirsty, swallow this!" Dan Chenzi took out a pill and stuffed it into Mao Xuan's mouth.

In an instant, wisps of pure qi were born from the dantian, and those blood rays that had not entered Lu Xuan's body encountered this green qi like snow in a furnace, and it dissipated with just one touch, and the uncontrolled qi and blood also returned to calm.

"Your medicinal power is a little scary after it has been transformed!" Dan Chenzi was a little jealous, after the purification of the cat clone, the medicinal power is fifty percent stronger than normal swallowing, and it is a pure energy form, which can be absorbed almost without side effects, he wants to have such a clone, and constantly purify the true element in the body, maybe it will be combined a long time ago, obviously it was made by himself, why is this little ghost cheaper!?

Lu Xuan didn't answer, and after those blood lights were useless, the three-legged tripod was really slowly pushed.

"Hum~"

The next moment, black light began to glow on the three-legged tripod, and the surroundings seemed to be darker, the yin wind between heaven and earth shouted, Lu Xuan's eyes were dizzy, the surrounding environment seemed to have changed, and there seemed to be ten thousand ghosts dancing in front of him.

"This is an illusion, eat this reassuring pill, continue!" Seeing this, Dan Chenzi took out another turquoise pill and threw it into Mao Xuan's mouth.

The illusion in front of him disappeared again, and the three-legged tripod slowly moved three feet sideways under the impetus of Lu Xuan.

"Woo~"

"Boom~"

At the moment when Lu Xuan pushed the three-legged tripod to the designated position, a strong yin wind suddenly blew between the heavens and the earth, and at the same time, the sky was covered with dark clouds at some point, and faintly, there were golden electric snakes dancing among the clouds.

Lu Xuan looked at the sky solemnly, this scene was a little scary! Is it really Jindan?

"It's a catastrophe, retreat! The farther away the better! Dan Chenzi's face became unusually serious when he saw this scene.

Lu Xuan didn't ask much, and his figure exploded.

"Bastard thing!" With an angry roar, a blood-colored figure appeared above the three-legged tripod, and a pair of blood-colored eyes stood out in the darkness.

I saw him stretch out his hand and grab it, a blood-colored big hand suddenly appeared, and Lu Xuan, who was running, was grabbed by the blood-colored palm without accident and flew towards the county office.

Lu Xuan couldn't even resist.

"Boy, I don't know if you're lucky or not! Now there's good news and bad news! Dan Chenzi stared at the picture, shook his head and sighed: "This is the Vajra Body Protector Pill, eat it!" ”

"Senior, say it quickly, let me be a ghost." Lu Xuan couldn't struggle, and the cat clone hurriedly swallowed the pill handed by Dan Chenzi, and said helplessly.

"He's Jindan, pinnacle, no injuries! You guessed it wrong! Dan Chenzi sighed.

"And what about the good news?" Lu Xuan felt that the power coming from the giant hand was getting bigger and bigger, and his body seemed to be about to be pinched and exploded, and a faint golden light lit up around his body, and the bloody palm touched the golden light, making a strange sneering sound.

"He's going to cross the catastrophe, and he's riddled with karmic fire, just the power of this heavenly tribulation, I'm afraid that he will die and be lifeless! It is estimated that this is why you will use this method to cover your own breath, in order to avoid the catastrophe, but you just removed the magic weapon that others used to avoid the catastrophe! Dan Chenzi sighed: "According to his situation, even if you break the maze formation, he probably won't come out and attack you directly." ”

As long as the body leaves this range, it will be killed by the Heavenly Tribulation, if it is not for the body to make a move, as long as Lu Xuan breaks through the outer maze array, this person will still not be able to stop Lu Xuan with some small spells.

"A seventh-grade martial artist, how can he have this body-protecting magic skill!?" In that cold voice, with a bit of disbelief, he wanted to pinch Lu Xuan to death to vent his anger, but who knew that his bloody handprint could not kill the other party in an instant, he hated Lu Xuan very much, and urged the bloody handprint with all his might, wanting to pinch this reckless man who exposed himself to death before the catastrophe came!

It seemed to confirm the old way, and just when Lu Xuan felt that he was about to be pinched and exploded, a golden thunderbolt fell, slashing fiercely at the blood-colored figure.

"Ah~"

In a miserable scream, the blood-colored hand that grabbed Lu Xuan dissipated out of thin air, followed by a series of heavenly thunders falling endlessly, hitting the blood-colored figure, Lu Xuan wanted to leave, but an inexplicable heavenly power pressed down, making it difficult for him to move.

"Don't bother, this is Tianwei, I was able to walk just now, and now I ...... Wait with peace of mind, the catastrophe will disperse, and the power of the sky will also disperse! Dan Chenzi admired this scene and said with relief.

Lu Xuan could only reluctantly stand up straight, looking at the blood-colored figure that gradually disappeared under the bombardment of the golden thunder, but the strange thing was that with such great power, except for the cracking of the ground under the blood-colored figure, other places were not affected......
