At around four o'clock in the morning, on the main peak of Daomen, Taixuzi stood quietly at the stargazing platform.
His hands were clasped behind his back, his eyes were filled with frost, and his murderous intent was uncontrollable.
The third elder and the sixth elder were by his side, their expressions unprecedentedly solemn.
"Elder brother, did you really sense that someone broke into the forbidden area behind the mountain?" The Sixth Elder said doubtfully: "It doesn't make sense, the Shocking God Formation is intact. There are dozens of mountain guarding disciples patrolling the entrance. How did the other party sneak in?
?”
"During the day, the killing array on the main peak was activated for no reason. We checked carefully and found no ghosts, let alone humans."
"The formation has been in disrepair for a long time, and it is normal for accidental flaws to occur occasionally."
"Let me see, the same is true for the forbidden area in the back mountain. It's almost the same."
The third elder nodded and agreed: "Yes, in August of the year before last, the defensive formation on the steps of the mountain gate was closed out of control."
"Afterwards, Lao Qi and I spent more than a month thinking about it. Guess what? The problem lies in the formation."
"We were both exhausted and it turned out to be a false alarm."
Taixuzi said solemnly: "The situations are different and cannot be generalized."
"Before Jiang Yuezhong rebelled against Taoism, he secretly entered the forbidden area behind my back and stole the Seven Talisman Book that can only be practiced by the master."
"In order to avoid making the same mistake again, I quietly set up the illusion array at the third and fourth steps of the entrance to the Shocking God Array."
"Even if a master from the semi-immortal realm breaks in, he will be forced into the battle if he is slightly careless."
"What I arranged with my own hands is connected with his mind, and there is no way it can go wrong."
"It's a very important matter. I have to be on guard. I have to go there myself."
After saying that, the lean old man with hair as silk as snow stepped out and turned into a stream of light and rushed straight towards the back mountain.
The third elder and the sixth elder looked at each other, helpless to follow.
...
I stood there on the dark "Yellow Spring Road".
The extremely realistic illusions around him continued, and the cries of ghosts and wolf howls were heard endlessly.
I watched silently. While my mind was clear, my thoughts gathered bit by bit and connected in series.
Array within array.
The entrance to the defensive array covered by the mountain behind Daomen was actually set up with a phantom array.
Needless to say, it must be Tai Xuzi's "masterpiece".
With such a sophisticated and just-in-place layout, even if I were at the seventeenth level of martial arts and fled in a hurry, I wouldn't have time to react in those short two breaths.
Unless I knew in advance that there was a phantom formation waiting for me at my feet, it would be almost impossible to avoid it.
The phantom formation is different from the killing formation and defense formation. In terms of power, it is not offensive.
The so-called confusing people's ears and eyes and charming their minds is false, but trapping the enemy and delaying time is true.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but smile.
The "devil" is one foot high, and the "Tao" is one foot high. I was self-righteous and cautious, and fell into a disadvantage at the first step.
At this moment, through the connection with the illusory formation, Tai Xuzi must know my existence.
Then he must be on his way to the back mountain.
As for me, there is not much time left for me.
At least I have to break out of the formation before Tai Xuzi appears.
Taking a deep breath, he took a picture of his hanging right hand from the air.
Spiritual power is released in all directions, rising and falling like huge waves.
Everywhere he went, smoke and dust filled the air.
All those false illusions collapsed and disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In the dark, the sound of cracking sounded.
The next moment, barren mountains and ridges came into view, and I returned to the real world.
Going forward, there is a forbidden area that I want to explore. Maybe there really is an earth spirit hidden there.
Unfortunately, the timing was wrong and I couldn't stay longer.
"boom."
I flew out from the entrance majestically, and I punched dozens of disciples guarding the mountain, knocking them off their feet.
As Third Uncle warned me, I will not harm anyone's life unless absolutely necessary.
But in order to prevent these guys from chasing me, I felt it was excusable to let them rest for a few days with minor injuries.
"Thieves don't run away."
In the distant night sky, Tai Xuzi's figure gradually enlarged.
