Volume 1: Stepping into the Immortal Fate Chapter 42, Ambush and Facing the Enemy
In the early morning of the next day, a thick fog floated in the dark canyon, and the four of them slowly walked forward in the canyon from the cave with the help of trees, Song Kuan's compass lost its effect after entering the canyon, and the pointer kept rotating like a top, fortunately, the valley was narrow, and it was only necessary to distinguish the front and back. On both sides of the road are towering peaks, blocking the rays of the sun, and the valley is full of old trees, walking under the trees is like the light after dusk, and you can only see the surrounding situation clearly, and more than 20 steps away is the shadow and shadow.
After walking in the forest for a long time, the light became more and more dim, and the speed of the four of them was getting slower and slower. After continuing to move forward for a while, I saw Zhu Cailiang suddenly stop and bow down, and the three people behind followed closely and lowered their bodies to check together.
Zhu Cailiang pointed to the footprints on the ground, and a few strips of cloth hanging on a thorn, and said in a low voice: "There are people passing by here just now, about six or seven people, and among them is a tall man. It seems that his steps are steady, and they should all be cultivators, most of them are Phantom Sect cultivators. ”
Hou Zhiyuan: "The skills of the junior brothers to trace and discern the traces are really amazing, and you can find a lot of detailed clues with the clues. ”
Yi Xuan said: "Senior brothers are really powerful, you can deduce the height and posture of the other party based on your footprints, this is really incredible!"
Song Kuan said: "Even if the traces of the Demon Gate monks have been discovered, we must be more careful not to be discovered by them!"
Yi Xuan and the others walked slowly along the forest path, and unconsciously walked out for half a day. After night fell, the forest could not see its fingers, and the four of them were afraid of bumping into the Phantom Sect monk, so they left the woods and approached the mountain peak on the left to find a place to rest.
In the middle of the night, Yi Xuan suddenly woke up from his dream, his heart throbbed, and he hurriedly found Song Kuan, who was on duty at night, and said, "I was suddenly frightened, somehow, Senior Brother Song, do you know what's going on?"
Song Kuan frowned and said, "I don't think it's a good sign, it's better to wake up the two of them and be careful!"
Woke up the other two, and the four of them gathered together after arranging the formation around them, and after a while, there was a heavy footstep in the distance, and there was a bang...... Boom...... Knock, from far and near.
Song Kuan found that the formation had been touched, and shouted in a low voice: "It's here!"
Although the opponent had already touched the Phantom Formation Formation, it was not affected in the slightest, and still walked straight towards the hiding place of the four people. I faintly saw that it was a tall figure striding forward, but the footsteps were sluggish and heavy, and I could see the face of a person by the moonlight, his face was blue, his eyes were dry, and he did not look like a living person.
Hou Zhiyuan screamed strangely: "It's bad, it's actually an iron corpse that builds the foundation, I'm afraid it's more auspicious this time, three junior brothers, I can't do anything for a while, I'll resist for a while, you guys scatter and escape, one person can go!" Hou Zhiyuan, who usually acted steadily, panicked after seeing this iron corpse, presumably the situation was extremely critical.
Yi Xuan recalled that when he chatted with Hou Zhiyuan the night before, he talked about the content of the Phantom Sect, most of the monks of the Phantom Sect were on the ghost thing that subdued the imperial envoy, and this corpse refining was a highly respected ghost thing, the spirit period could make the walking corpse, the qi training period was upgraded to the jumping corpse, the foundation building period was the iron corpse, and the upper part was the bronze corpse, the silver corpse and the golden corpse. In other words, encountering an iron corpse is equivalent to facing two foundation building period monks at the same time, and Yi Xuan's four people are no more than practicing qi cultivation, which is extremely dangerous.
Song Kuan shouted: "What is the panic, the enemy has not arrived, we have messed up the formation first, this refining corpse is mostly not affected by the phantom array at all by virtue of its sensitivity to the smell of the living, and the other Phantom Sect monks will be affected to some extent, so we still have a glimmer of life!"
As he spoke, the iron corpse got closer and closer, followed by five Phantom Sect monks, and a middle-aged man in the middle said loudly: "You little mice, I have been waiting for you here for two days, and I have only found you now, hahaha......"
Yi Xuan's heart was hot, he jumped out of the hidden place, and shouted loudly: "I am a disciple of the Talisman Pavilion of the Jade Academy, and I have not committed any crime with your sect, so why bother to kill the killer and cause disputes between the two sects in the future!"
The middle-aged man shouted: "Wait for the disciple of the Jade Academy, you meet me and you should never offend, if you offend someone who should not be offended, remember to be a little longer in the next life!
Seeing this, Yi Xuan slapped a magic talisman on his body, glanced at Hou Zhiyuan and the others behind him, and then rushed towards the exit of the canyon, the iron corpse strode and followed closely, while the middle-aged monk of the Phantom Sect frowned, and gave an order to the other four, and also followed the iron corpse to hunt down Yi Xuan.
Zhu Cailiang was about to jump in after him, but was held down tightly by Song Kuan, and said in a low voice: "Don't live up to the thoughts of the little junior brother, we will use the phantom array to kill the remaining four people of the Phantom Sect as soon as possible, and then help him, or I am afraid that they will all be planted here today......!"
Yi Xuan fled towards the valley mouth in a panic, the heavy footsteps of the iron corpse behind him seemed to be in his ears, and he casually threw out a spirit rune in the middle of the iron corpse, and the spirit rune turned into a fireball and hit the iron corpse, but it was unharmed. Yi Xuan hurriedly threw out another quicksand talisman, and the iron corpse was defenseless, and fell on the spot as soon as he stepped into the quicksand. Yi Xuan immediately woke up, stopped and added a few quicksand talismans, and all the areas within a radius of a few zhang turned into yellow sand, and the iron corpse couldn't move for a while, and Yi Xuan continued to run forward.
The Illusory Sect Zhuji Monk rushed to the side of the iron corpse, a sinister smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and a stream of black gas spewed out of his mouth and soaked into the head of the iron corpse, the iron corpse's eyes flashed with a strange red light, and a pair of giant hands became longer and longer, pulling the trunk of the tree on the side to borrow strength, and jumped up from the quicksand to continue to chase.
Yi Xuan escaped for another half a mile, and with an idea in his heart, he threw out five earth shield talismans to tightly surround himself up and down, and immediately released a quicksand talisman at his feet, and the originally hard ground in the forest immediately turned into quicksand, plunging Yi Xuan's whole person into the ground, and then the ground returned to its original appearance.
The foundation building monk of the Phantom Illusion Sect followed the iron corpse to chase here, and found that the iron corpse had lost Yi Xuan's traces in the same place, and he secretly wondered in his heart, could it be that this little disciple of the spirit period could still have any life-saving spirit talisman around him, and the whole person could escape in an instant.
Yi Xuan sank into the ground, hiding in the narrow space between several earth shield talismans, listening to the footsteps coming from the ground with his ears, one was dragging and calm, and the other was light, and he could accurately distinguish which was a monk and which was a corpse. Yi Xuan didn't dare to use his spiritual power, but just held the Chihong You harpoon that he had taken out in advance in his right hand, and held the Xuan Turtle Refining Shield in his left hand to protect the vital point on his chest, with a spiritual hidden blade as thin as a cicada's wings in his mouth, and he was engrossed in distinguishing the voice above his head and preparing to give the Phantom Sect Foundation Cultivator a head-on blow.
