Volume 3 Tu Su Chapter 25 Empty Illusion Array
In other words, Hao Datong led the way, and after twenty miles, he turned into an entrance on the right side of the stone corridor. Walk another five miles and enter the winding sheep intestine path. The trail is a downward spiral, and the gravel on the road is all cobblestones, and the size is very uniform. It's like someone has been carefully repaired. Moreover, there are no more dead people, which is somewhat of a good thing. Unfortunately, the trail is unbelievably long, and it feels like a straight road to hell.
Yue Chen and the others walked for three days and three nights, and finally saw hope. The large disc area in front of you is like the end of the road. However, when they got closer to look at it, everyone's faces gradually became hazy. Because at the other end of the disc is the entrance to the mountain, and nothing else.
After a short rest, everyone continued on their way.
In this foggy stone mountain, any monk with some experience will not easily fly in the sky, and even walk too fast. But this long walk is inevitably tiresome. After all kinds of insults and curses, you still have to keep going.
As expected, the road up the mountain still lasted three days and three nights. In the past six days and six nights, the stone mountain was surprisingly quiet, and everyone was even more worried. If you fly in the sky, I'm afraid it won't take an hour.
The end of the road is also a circular area, but there are many exits. After Tu Lei and the others checked, they found that except for the road they came from, the others were all flat avenues. At this point, Hao Datong is no longer bright, he is back to the starting point, and he has to find a new direction.
When it comes to tracking ability, Zhong Zhen is unique. After questioning Hao Datong, he carefully inspected every exit.
After a long time, he said, "The direction we came from is the north. It seems that they will either take the first exit in the west or the last in the east. As for which one, it is impossible to determine. ”
Hao Dadao: "That must be this one in the east!"
"So sure?"
Hao Datong was a little jealous of Ouyang Xiu, moved his body slightly, and said, "I heard Pang Yuanwai say the last one!"
Zhong Zhen shrugged his shoulders and said, "You can go and see it first, at least half the chance!"
Hao Datong's face suddenly became a little uncertain, and he said with a little uneasiness: "Actually, with our strength, I'm afraid we won't be able to deal with Mei Ziwu and them! If they succeed in the siege, and we rush over again, wouldn't it be to let others wait for the rabbit!"
"If they were all like you, it was! Unfortunately, it's not like that!"
Ouyang Xiu choked a sentence and walked to himself.
Zhong Zhen said: "Little mouse, don't worry, there is no danger now." Those clowns who jump off the beam are not to be worried. ”
Zhong Zhen's words and deeds are indeed full of confidence, and he does not take the known dangers to heart at all. For Mei Ziwu and the others, Yue Chen didn't have any worries, but a few of his classmates became his "troubles". There's no guarantee that they'll do something at any time.
After a while, everyone walked into the last exit on the east side, and the speed was much faster.
This is a flat avenue, and it has an indescribable feeling. It is like a fluid pavement, and the person walking on it is like a flat boat floating on the sea. So, everyone flew in the sky and left the nasty stone road. A figure remained on the ground, and after watching the people who accompanied him leave, he slowly leaned down and touched the ground with his palm. In a moment, Edgeworth broke through the air.
When Yue Chen caught up with Ouyang Xiu and the others, everyone had already entered a forest. The greenery of this forest makes people shudder, and each green seems to have an endless demonic power, which is terrifying. As long as you wander your mind or turn around a few times, you can't tell the direction. Originally, there was no grass on the bare stone mountain, and the living soul was extinct. Inadvertently, a strange green forest appeared.
Yue Chen and the others thought of the words that claimed to be "Ghost Ancestor", and couldn't help but have the same question - what kind of existence is the Ghost Domain?
In short, what we have seen so far is that in this mysterious area, all kinds of things will be switched at any time.
Everyone's expressions became serious and solemn again. The foreboding strikes again. Ouyang Xiu also gave up his insistence, took out the flower fox marten from his arms, whistled lightly, and the little mink comprehended, and after a little discerning the direction, he quickly flashed into the green forest. Yue Chen and the others also understood and chased in the direction where the flower fox mink disappeared.
After about a moment, the flower fox marten stopped under a boulder, as if closing its eyes to recuperate.
Ouyang Xiu gently picked up the little mink and said, "It should be in front! Let's go over and take a look!"
In front of it is a depression, and at the top of the depression is a huge boulder. Yue Chen and the others walked up to the boulder and looked down, the sword shadow was vertical and horizontal in the thick fog, and the center of the sword shadow faintly emitted a golden light. This depression also looks very strange, because it is impossible to perceive the situation in the depression without walking on this stone and looking down. At the same time, people in the depression could not detect the situation outside.
Through the light in the dense fog, it can be vaguely seen that this depression is a regular triangle area, and the edges and corners of the walls of the depression are all inverted sharp stones. There were slight gaps between the sharp stones, and the thick fog in the depression poured in through these cracks.
Lao Qianxing said angrily: "This group of waste!"
Hao Datong smiled and said, "It seems that there is no defeat for both sides or a rout for the other side!"
Zhong Zhen chuckled softly, shook his head and said, "I'm afraid someone is going to miscalculate!"
Lao Qianxing snorted coldly and said, "Are you two righteous men and gentlemen?"
Lao Qianxing and Tian Chang's plans, even if the people present didn't understand it before, they also understood it at this moment. However, compared with which old rivers and lakes, it is still too far behind. For example, these black-clothed men besieging the Maha Temple in front of them.
Each of the people who attacked the Maha Temple dressed themselves as night walkers. Then, will they really go all out?
Of course not!
This kind of behavior like these loose cultivators pays attention to winning a blow, dividing up the treasure and leaving. These top casual cultivators will never be untargeted, but how can the disciples of the Maha Hall deal with it if they want to?
As a result, one of the most worrying results for the casual cultivators happened—they couldn't hold each other!
To form an alliance and advance and retreat together is to be driven by interests. Since it is driven by interests, no one likes to work in vain, and if you don't do it, you will take a life. So, in a stalemate situation, who wants to go all out?
Going all out means a great consumption of the spiritual power of the Jade Mansion, and at the same time, it means the weakening of one's own power. In this way, even if the target is captured, it is difficult to guarantee that it will not - the praying mantis catches the cicada, the yellow finch is behind, and let the other person hug the grass and beat the rabbit with the nest. It is even common to be bitten back by someone in the alliance who intends to retain strength.
Therefore, Yue Chen and the others saw that at least five hundred people were besieging the Maha Hall disciples, but everyone was at the touch of a button, and none of them were going all out. More than 500 people in black are slowly wasting time, praying for other miracles.
Miracles, as far as they come. Just as they were in a dilemma, there were three more swords in the air.
A thunderbolt roared: "Mei Ziwu, eat the sword of the master!"
After hearing the sound, some of the black-clothed people shuttling through the depression quietly disappeared into the thick fog, some were stunned and hurriedly looked into the sky, and some simply whistled and flew to the top of the depression on the other side and hidden.
The three sword rays were originally bluffing, but after drawing an arc in the air, they quickly returned. These three people are Tu Lei, Lao Qianxing, and Tian Chang.
At the same time, the man in black did not have a love affair and left inexplicably. Yue Chen and the others knew that if they suddenly attacked their own group first, they would definitely suffer a big loss.
"Hmph! Even if they know each other, they recognize Brother Yue and his party coming! Otherwise, most of these 500 people will die here!"
"Brother Jiang Dao, how can you see it? I think that if they attack us first, we will be the ones who die!"
"Brother Yue is indeed rare to have the power of the world but not to be delicate! To put it mildly, they are indeed not afraid of your cultivation strength, but they are afraid of your elixir resources! With the support of the elixir, coupled with the counterattack of the trapped disciples of the Maha Temple, with the strength and magic weapon of scattered cultivation, how can they compare with the disciples of the Maha and Chengming sects?"
Not long after, a golden light broke through the dense fog and took the lead in front of Yue Chen and the others, who were the high monks. Obviously, he also came up first to investigate the truth. After a while, a low whistle sounded into the depression, and all the disciples of the Maha Hall left the depression.
This time, the number of disciples sent by the seven major sects was relatively large, but they were basically about 100 people. There are more than 20 disciples in the Maha Temple, which is equivalent to a great reduction in combat power. Even so, under the leadership of the high monks, the more than 500 scattered cultivation alliances did not succeed in the siege. It vividly shows a sectarian heritage with a 10,000-year-old heritage.
Master Lidu clasped his hands together, chanted the Buddha's chant, and said, "Thank you Senior Brother Yue for coming to help!"
This flower, the stamen has nine cores, the leaves have nine petals, each petal is a nine-color ripple, the stem is like bluestone, and the root is like a dragon's whisker. The gaze of the eyes seems to reflect the fairyland of Qiongyu, smelling like the dew of the sky, and the leaves moving like the wind and clouds.
Yue Chen exclaimed in amazement: "Nine Palace Yun Xun Flower!" After a pause, he continued: "Master, this strange treasure is the Nine Rank Spiritual Material declared by the Antiy Society. If you cultivate it well, there are still a lot of opportunities for promotion. This junior can't afford it, so he asks the seniors to take it back. Besides, there is no help in any way. ”
"The poor monk is an ascetic, and he has nothing of value on him. Fortunately, I was lucky on this trip and came across two Jiugong Yunxun flowers. In addition to being grateful for the accident, the poor monk also wanted to exchange for the elixir of Chengming Sect, not only in case of emergency, but also in need to treat several seriously injured disciples. I also hope that Senior Brother Yue will be fulfilled. ”
Yue Chen glanced at Jiang Zhongqi, knowing that this person has excellent intelligence, and he is quite disciplined, if the people here only talk about their minds, I am afraid that only Zhong Zhen and Ouyang Xiu will compete with him. After a little hesitation, he completed a major deal with Lidu. Although the Nine Grades of Spiritual Materials are expensive, their value in this region is still discounted, not because of the change in their own value, but because of whether the person who owns it can leave alive. Therefore, Yue Chen still secretly weighed it and completed a very fair transaction.
He put the elixir into his sleeve, and gave dozens of pieces to a thin little monk beside him, and sighed: "Chengming Sect has produced so many alchemy wizards, I am afraid that there will be more Jindan Realm monks who can be gathered in the future!
Yue Chen went straight to the point and directly talked about everything he had encountered. When he heard about the pretending to be a disciple of the Maha Temple, the disciples of the Maha Temple exclaimed, "Senior brother, it's them!"
Master Roudu nodded, signaling silence. Yue Chen kept talking about the depression before it ended.
"The Eastern Emperor Ghost ......!"
Master Lidu muttered to himself, kept repeating these four words, and suddenly his eyes flashed, and he said in a deep voice: "As far as the poor monk knows, the Eastern Emperor Ghost Snake should be from the Demon Light Continent, and it itself is an empty illusion alien formation, mysterious and dangerous. It seems that the vine gate we walked into at the beginning was the Eastern Emperor Ghost Gate recorded in the book, and it was also called the Demon Emperor Gate by the predecessors. ”
Ouyang Xiu said with some understanding: "If this is the case, then it will also be able to explain what we encountered! Since it is a formation, it is not a dead place, just break this ghost formation!"
He nodded and said, "What Senior Brother Ouyang said is indeed reasonable! But there are no ancient books that record the specific situation of the Eastern Emperor Ghost Snake, if it is really an empty illusion array, it is extremely difficult to find the eye of the array!"
Zhong Zhen said: "As long as we want to get out alive, there will always be a way to find it!"
At this moment, everyone has a further understanding, at least a lot of doubts in their hearts have been removed. However, there is still an important question that haunts those present, and that is where to go next?
Perhaps it was the favor of the Heavenly Dao, and just when everyone was at a loss, a sword appeared directly south of the depression. This sword light slowly transformed into an infinite sword dome, enveloping an area.
"Taiyi Sword Array!"
