A small flame naturally can't make any difference to a master. However, it brought a lot of pressure to everyone's hearts: just outcropping and taking a look at the situation in the sun, it was actually sunburned?

Soon, just as everyone feared, the poisonous sunlight through the gaps in the leaves scorched the grass on the ground with green smoke, and countless flames "soared" and ignited. Not only that, but the spots of light that fell on the people also burned through the clothes, and several people screamed in unison, rubbing the skin that was burned by the sun. Clearly, the sun is getting hotter and hotter. The forest could not stay any longer, there was fire everywhere, and the canopy of the trees that shaded the sun had been burned off a lot, and more and more beams of light were shining into the woods.

"Run!" Chu Fanghua immediately made a decision and ran wildly towards the south, "Protect your eyes, don't look up!"

Everyone understands that Chu Fanghua wants to rush to the edge of the island and plunge into the sea, and when he reaches the deep area where the sun can't shine, he will naturally be able to avoid danger.

Xiao Tianhe ran unhurriedly at the end of the line. The clothes on his upper body were burned to the point that only a few rags remained, revealing a sturdy body, but he was not embarrassed in the slightest. Because even when the sun shone on him, he didn't feel any burning pain. "It's worthy of the 'body protection divine power', it's really invulnerable!" Xiao Tianhe secretly rejoiced. He looked up as he ran with his companions, not quite believing that the sun could be so frighteningly hot, even in the middle of a circle.

"Be careful!" Chu Fanghua, who was running at the front, suddenly roared, raised his knife and swung it, and shot a large number of "hidden weapons" with light points in front of him, which was the kind of tree branch before, but now the branch has been burned by the sun. The force of the branches flying was still very amazing, after Chu Fanghua blocked dozens of "hidden weapons", the magic knife was knocked away, and in an instant, several branches pierced her body, but fortunately, the injured parts were all on the legs, arms, and shoulders, and they were not critical.

The current situation is very critical, if Chu Fanghua avoids it, then Ye Linglong, who is closely behind, will be pierced into a honeycomb by the branches; if he doesn't avoid it, no matter how strong his strength is, if he only relies on his flesh and blood to resist the branches, he will not be able to last long.

It was too late, it was fast, and a figure flashed in front of Chu Fanghua, blocking all the branches. It turned out to be Yang Yuemei, who erected a Huayan shield in front of her, and all the branches hit the huge shield with a sonorous sound. She looked back at a few people and grinned, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

The "hidden weapon" doesn't have to worry about it for the time being, but the threat overhead has not been lifted. Xiao Tianhe ran to the front from the end, ignoring all the branches, and after the branches hit him, they bounced away, and several people were stunned.

Xiao Tianhe's clothes were burned all at this time, even half of his pants were burned off, he ran with his pants in both hands, and when he saw everyone staring at him, he smiled embarrassedly, "You guys hide under the shield, follow me!"

Xiao Tianhe bore the brunt of the tree branches, replacing the role of Hua Yandun. Yang Yuemei raised her shield to shade the light, and the other people all held their shields and hid under them, and the group walked through the woods in this strange way.

Everyone thought that out of the woods was the sea, but they found that it was just a small clearing. Xiao Tianhe in front of him suddenly stopped, and in the middle of the clearing, there was a person standing. There was a strange disc spinning and floating above the man's head. On closer inspection, the disc was actually made of countless branches! The diameter of the disc was more than two zhang long, to say the least, and the thickness was seven or eight feet, and the dense and criss-crossing branches blocked all the light for the man. With a wave of his right hand, the branch at the top of the disc, which had been burned by the flames, broke away from the disc and flew towards the crowd. At the same time, the man's left hand was doing a similar motion to his right, only in the opposite direction, and an unburned branch flew out of the surrounding dense forest and gathered on the bottom of the disk.

What kind of trick is this? One hand controls the branches to be fired into hidden weapons, and the other hand absorbs new branches to fill the disk. Due to the shadow of the huge disk, everyone can't see this person's appearance clearly, could it be that he is Bi Jiuying?

"Who are you?" Xiao Tianhe asked, taking out a belt and tightening his pants.

The man didn't reply, even if he saw that the dead branch didn't work at all after hitting Xiao Tianhe's body, he still repeated the same action monotonously.

Xiao Tianhe took out the Chang Geng knife and took a step forward, but the man did not react.

Xiao Tianhe rushed forward abruptly and stabbed the man in the chest, but he didn't even snort, and the movements of his hands never stopped.

Xiao Tianhe was very surprised, drew his knife out, and brought out a ...... Gray "blood" splashed all over him. He saw the man's appearance clearly: he was not tall, his cheeks were thin, his eyes were dark, the whites of his eyes were not visible, his lips were bloodless, and his face was blue, as if he had been poisoned.

"Unload his arm!" Chu Fanghua reminded behind.

The strange man didn't hide or hide, so he let Xiao Tianhe calmly raise and drop the knife. When his arms fell to the ground, he naturally sprinkled gray blood. After breaking his arms, the disc above the strange man's head suddenly scattered and fell, like a "rain" of branches, piling up more than half a person on the ground. At this moment, the strange man opened his mouth wide, raised his head and roared into the air, writhing his body to get out of the pile of branches. It looked like a whistling ghost, and it was terrifying.

How could Xiao Tianhe let him break free? With a horizontal swing of the knife, he cut off his head, and another stream of gray blood sprayed into the air. After the strange man's death, the sky suddenly darkened, the blazing light finally disappeared, and the sky returned to a cloudy state.

A crisis was resolved so simply? Xiao Tianhe didn't seem to believe it himself, and looked back at his companions. Except for Chu Fanghua, who was slightly injured, everyone else was unharmed.

"Girl,

Have you been secretly following us?" Liu Qinglian asked Yang Yuemei curiously.

Seeing that she was suspicious, Xiao Tianhe hurriedly explained: "I used the Yuan Spirit Orb to call her to help last night, and the timing was just right." ”

"Oh. Childe really has a wide range of friends, admired, admired. Liu Qinglian smiled.

Xiao Tianhe smiled and sighed secretly, it is inconvenient to have outsiders present, the demon clan has come out one by one, and the general fabrication of similar lies will inevitably make people more and more suspicious; "You can only take one step at a time. He thought helplessly.

"My injuries are fine, let's go find the exit of the island formation. Chu Fanghua said.

Yang Yuemei suddenly shouted: "Ah, I seem to have a bottle of pill dropped in the place just now, I'll look for it." With that, she ran back with a puff of smoke.

Liu Qinglian looked at her back, thoughtful.

The group continued south through the woods in the direction they had set, and encountered no further danger. After a while, Yang Yuemei also caught up. When they arrived at the shore, they found that the sea ahead was foggy again, and this time they couldn't even see the outline of the island.

"Here...... It's not like the exit of the island formation!" Liu Qinglian said.

"Maybe Bi Jiuying is playing tricks?" Cheng Yufei still believed that this was the "open door" among the eight gates, "I'll go ahead and explore!" He grabbed Si Yun's stick and went into the water, cautiously moving forward. But before he could go deeper into the fog, the fog seemed to suddenly "come to life", enveloping him from all directions.

"Not good!" Xiao Tianhe was about to go over to rescue, but was stopped by Chu Fanghua. She said: "Don't panic! Those smokes should be the 'masterpieces' of Su Yuejiang and Su Yuehe's brothers, just to envelop the entire island formation, so that the people who break into the formation do not know the direction." What's more, now that the two of them are dead, smoke can't do any harm. ”

After Cheng Yufei noticed the abnormal movement of the smoke, he suddenly accelerated and rushed forward for a large distance, turned around in the air and waved his stick, and a surging wave of fire gushed out from the tip of Si Yun's stick, burning head-on towards the chasing smoke. With a "hula" sound, the smoke was steamed away.

"Haha!" Cheng Yufei laughed loudly, and was about to turn around, when the surrounding sea water suddenly "rattled" a layer of ice, and his feet were firmly frozen in the seawater. Cheng Yufei was shocked, and endured the strong biting cold air and pulled his legs out, but he couldn't move at all. Immediately afterwards, a cold wind blew against the surface of the sea, not only rolling the smoke over, but also condensing the droplets of the smoke into ice needles. Cheng Yufei sent out a wave of fire again, melting all the ice needles, but several ice arrows flew out of the sea a few feet away, shooting towards his head. Cheng Yufei secretly said badly, raised his arms to protect his throat and forehead, who knew that the ice arrow flew in front of him and suddenly exploded, countless ice picks slashed his head and covered his face, Cheng Yufei screamed, and blood flowed all over his arm.

Chu Fanghua hurriedly went into the water and rushed over to ride the waves, slashed the ice under Cheng Yufei's feet with a knife, brought him back to the shore, and said eagerly: "Quick! The ice is poisonous, give him a Guiyuan Pill!"

Xiao Tianhe hurriedly took out the pill and stuffed it into Cheng Yufei's mouth. Cheng Yufei put down the arm blocking his eyes at this time, his cheeks were full of small wounds, and his left eye was bleeding nonstop, and it seemed that he was blind. Yang Yuemei exclaimed in surprise when she saw this and covered her mouth.

"Damn!" Cheng Yufei spat angrily.

"It looks like it's not an exit, it's the outer edge barrier of the island formation. Liu Qinglian said.

Xiao Tianhe asked her, "Barrier, are you the boundary of the Fa Array?"

Liu Qinglian shook her head slightly, crossed her arms and paced, as if she was talking to herself, and analyzed: "The barrier is much more powerful than the 'border'. In fact, after being caught by the pirates, I escaped once. At first, I was imprisoned in the island with my fellow villagers, and a few villagers who were still a little bit of strength seized an opportunity to kill the pirates who guarded them, and everyone broke through the prison door and scattered, because everyone only wanted to leave the waters of Yuanming Island as soon as possible, so they didn't take into account the pattern of the entire sea area, and blindly swam in the direction of the open sea. A few of us had not swam far after entering the water when we encountered almost the same situation as before—the sea suddenly froze, the smoke shrouded in, and the cold wind swept by, freezing the fog into ice slag. At that time, the first few people died on the spot. However, we were not as strong as the wounded brother, and before we could shoot the ice arrows from the water, we were already frightened and began to swim back, only to be caught again by the pursuing pirates and imprisoned in the dungeon of Smoke Island, where there was no way into the sky. ”

"As Liu Linfeng revealed to me, Nineteen Xiu Island has been laid out into a single-line spiral layout that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, except for a waterway leading to Yuanming Island, all other waters have been laid with various mechanisms and magic circles. Chu Fanghua said.

Liu Qinglian said: "Exactly. Since the sea water is frozen and the situation of the wind and ice needles are the same, I guess that there is also a circle of the same barrier around the perimeter of the 'Bagua Tianluo' island array, except for the two entrances and exits, which are safe, there are dangers in other places, so it also eliminates the possibility of breaking out of the formation from other directions. After a pause, she added, "If you can't find the exit, you'll just be trapped inside." ”

"Hey, if you can't find the exit, you can still exit from the entrance, wait until you gather more good hands and then come to the battle, why do you want to be trapped?" Yang Yuemei said.

Liu Qinglian smiled slightly embarrassedly: "That's what I said." So how do we go now?"

"We enter through the Shengmen, and the opening is not the exit, so we have to go to the last Jimen, the Humen Gate. Chu Fanghua was helpless, "You can't go to the murder door, right?"

Xiao Tianhe agreed: "That's all it takes." Hugh Men corresponds to the Kan hexagram, which is in the positive

The West is up. We are now on the island of Qiangua due south, so the second island to the northwest is the Gangua. ”

The corners of Liu Qinglian's mouth raised a subtle chuckle, but she didn't know that Xiao Tianhe had already seen it in her eyes.

After a short rest, the group returned to the north shore of the island along the road they had come, and went into the water to travel in a northwesterly direction. Although the sea area of the eight islands is also full of smoke, it is not as dangerous as the border barrier, and everyone slowly relaxed their vigilance.

Almost as we reached the central part of the sea, a loud and terrible sound was suddenly heard from the southwest, like a thunderbolt before a summer rainstorm, which shook people's eardrums. It was always in a quiet environment, and everyone was taken aback.

"What's going on over there?" Yang Yuemei raised her eyes to look, but could only see the outline of a small island faintly in the fog.

Liu Qinglian proposed: "Why don't we go over and have a look?"

"No, you can't. "Xiao Tian River Road," the southwest direction is the Xun hexagram, corresponding to Dumen. 'Du', which means blocked, is a door that is more vicious than the middle level, so it's best not to go. ”

"That's right. Maybe Bi Jiuying's guy deliberately made some movement to lead us there. Chu Fanghua said.

Mentioning the name "Bi Jiuying", Xiao Tianhe asked Cheng Yufei: "The strange person who died on the island just now shouldn't be Bi Jiuying, right?"

Cheng Yufei laughed out loud: "Of course not." Bi Jiuying is cunning and shrewd, but look at that guy just now, he was dumbfounded, and he didn't even know how to hide when he cut a knife, how could it be him?"

Xiao Tianhe himself felt that the question just now was a bit silly, smiled, and asked again: "Then do you remember the gray traces in the Emperor Cliff Realm?" After coming out of the Burning Heaven Palace, the demon clans of the Meng Zhang Realm, the Prison Realm, and the Lingguang Realm had a night battle with the enemies led by the fierce demon Qu Shuoheng. At dawn the next day, only large and strange gray traces were left on the ground. The gray color was exactly the same as the blood of the strange people on the island.

Cheng Yufei said: "Of course I remember." In fact, he also learned from Hua Qingyu that the gray blood was also related to the strange poison in the Heavenly Star River of the Divine Jade Valley, but now was not the time to discuss this matter.

Xiao Tianhe muttered to himself: "How can a pirate have anything to do with a fierce demon...... Could it be that the Sea Jiao Gang is also under the command of the demon? It seems unlikely......"

"Ahead is Kangua. Chu Fanghua said.

Xiao Tianhe put his thoughts back and looked ahead. Kanguai Island is also similar to the two islands of Gen and Qiangua, and the island is full of forests.

"It seems that the size of the eight islands should all be similar, and the appearance is similar, and what is even more commendable is that they are exactly in the eight directions, no wonder Bi Jiuying fell in love with this feng shui treasure at a glance!" Chu Fanghua sighed.

"Hmph, it can be his grave!" Cheng Yufei waved his fist.

Xiao Tianhe reminded everyone: "Although Xiumen is Jimen, judging from the situation of opening the door, the island may not be safe. ”

After everyone went to the island, the sky suddenly cleared, the sun hung obliquely on the treetops in the west, the sky was flooded with burning clouds, and the shadows of the trees were stretched very long under the reflection of the red glow in the middle of the sky, like a beautiful scenery of the sunset and sunset. However, everyone has no intention of appreciating the three islands, and the sunshine changes three times, which is obviously not a natural scene.

Walking through the woods, the group came to the middle of the island, where there was also an open area with no trees. The place was much larger than the clearing on Qiangua Island, covered with a layer of brownish-red, unknown dead grass, and a small hill in the middle. The group did not stop here, but continued to the west in search of an exit. But after arriving at the west shore of the island, everyone's hearts were half cold. Just like the situation on the south shore of Qiangua Island, the west side of Kanguai Island is also full of smoke, and it is obvious that this is not the exit of the "Bagua Tianluo Island Array".

Cheng Yufei was annoyed: "It's the same with Humen. Where else can I go next?"

"Don't be too discouraged, at least it's sunny here, and we can go to the top of the hill and make a decision. Liu Qinglian proposed.
