This was not Jiang Chao's first time dealing with a tricky monster like the Bloody Cuckoo. Combining actual combat experience, he also figured out countermeasures to deal with this monster.
In the previous battle, Jiang Chao penetrated some weak thunder and lightning marks into the vines without leaving any trace. As the battle continued, the thunder and lightning marks continued to superimpose, and finally at this moment he sensed the hiding place of the bloody cuckoo.
at.
Well aware of the cunning of the bloody cuckoo, Jiang Chao did not show too much obviousness. Instead, he changed the direction of the attack at the moment when he faced the purple and black vines. He swung his spear in his hand and the purple thunder and lightning roared like a dragon coming out of its cave.
I saw that he had spotted a spot, and the spear stabbed hard towards the gray ground.
"Hi!" It was like thunder piercing the sky, and the spear with purple thunder pierced deeply into the ground. As it approached, a thick burning smell came from below the ground.
"Hoo--" A strange cry of pain rang out. After a moment, there was no movement, and no more purple-black vines emerged from the wall and floor. It was obvious that Jiang Chao's shot directly killed the bloody cuckoo.
Jiang Chao pulled out his spear, and the hole in the ground quickly returned to its original state, with no trace of damage visible.
"The manager is really powerful!" One of them complimented, but it was also true. After all, Jiang Chao's power was obvious to all.
Hearing this, Jiang Chao turned around, his eyes passed directly over the two of them, and landed on the short, fat old man at the end. He said slightly apologetically: "Wang Fukeqing, I'm sorry just now."
The three people present all knew what Jiang Chao's apology meant, and it was nothing more than a sacrifice to save two. Thinking of this, they couldn't help but look a little embarrassed on their faces.
At this time, it was Wang Fu who showed a clear understanding of justice: "The situation was critical before, no wonder Manager Jiang. And speaking of it, if I were not facing a life and death crisis, I would not be a blessing in disguise and break through to the Eight Marks realm."
As he spoke, Wang Fu showed a look of satisfaction on his face, as if he didn't take Jiang Chao's abandonment of him seriously at all.
"Jiang would be very grateful for your understanding. Oh, I almost forgot to congratulate Wang Keqing for improving his cultivation to a higher level!" Jiang Chao chuckled.
"Yes, congratulations to Wang Keqing!" The other two people also praised him repeatedly.
Wang Fu nodded with a smile and returned the favor.
Looking at his performance, the doubts in Jiang Chao's heart only increased instead of decreasing. He could be so open-minded and clear-minded in the face of a life and death crisis. Such a state of mind was definitely not what a mere guest should have!
"Is he from the Feng family?" A thought flashed through Jiang Chao's mind.
Wang Fu looked at Jiang Chao with respect, not seeing anything unusual.
Jiang Chao took a deep look at him, then withdrew his gaze and looked down at the induction talisman in his hand.
"The frequency of these monsters appearing is getting higher and higher. It can be seen that we are getting closer to the formation eye, so hurry up!"
He could sense faint light points one by one, ranging from far to near, but the gathering directions of most of the light points were quite similar. Apparently they also discovered some patterns.
"Well, the spiritual energy fluctuations seem to be a little stronger?" A seven-line life master suddenly said.
Jiang Chao also discovered this.
"It's possible that someone touched something or found the formation eye. Don't waste time, let's go!" After that, the four of them didn't waste any more time and headed straight into a straight alleyway.
…
Throughout the maze, the originally thin spiritual energy fluctuations suddenly became a bit stronger. Although the degree was not obvious, the respective teams
There are several strong men with advanced cultivation in the group, how could such a change escape their perception.
"Without further delay! Follow the spiritual energy fluctuations!" Lin Qianshan ordered. Their team has a large number of people and is the strongest to some extent. Lin Yunqing, the old man Huaishu and an eight-year-old from the Life Spirit Palace
Elder Wen has four top powers, and the remaining five are either Seventh Line Life Masters or Wang Chen, a genius who can fight across levels.
Therefore, even in the dangerous maze, they never lost anyone.
Deep in the maze, a figure in yellow clothes walked forward quietly. His cultivation was not weak and he had reached the realm of eight lines. With some means, even Jiang Chao and others could not do anything to him for a while. So along the way he
Although we encountered some crises, we managed to save the day.
Following the increasingly intense fluctuations of spiritual energy, he became more and more cautious, but he was extremely excited in his heart.
If nothing else happens, after turning a few forks, you will see the formation eye ahead.
Finding the formation eye is equivalent to finding the exit, and he will be able to get the Xuanhe Pill he dreams of.
"Although this maze is troublesome, it is also good for me. There are so many masters entering the maze this time. If I fight head-on, I will definitely have no hope, but this maze has given me a chance. Who would have thought that this maze formation would
I, a casual life cultivator, got there first!" A sneer appeared at the corner of the man in yellow's mouth, and he glanced down at the induction talisman. Those light spots were still some distance away from him, and it was obviously impossible to reach the formation eye before him.
After turning three forks in succession, at the corner, a strong spiritual energy suddenly hit his face, making the man in yellow feel refreshed. He opened his eyes and looked directly, only to see the gray ground thirty meters away.
, inlaid with crystal clear red crystals, emitting a faint crimson light, illuminating the surroundings, and also allowing him to see clearly the dense and complex formation veins on the ground, and in a circle of red crystals
In the very center, there is a circular halo that looks like a light source. It is difficult to distinguish between reality and reality, but it releases strange fluctuations of spiritual energy.
"This is the formation eye!" The man in yellow was overjoyed.
As long as these crystals are removed and the light source in the middle is destroyed, the maze formation will be self-defeating.
The man in yellow couldn't hide his excitement, but he was still rational. His soul perception kept scanning this space, for fear that there might be some monster lurking in it.
"Hiss~" A colorful little snake slowly swam out from his sleeves, spitting out a red letter, and a pair of cold eyes also looked at the space.
"Can you sense the danger lurking here?" The man in yellow asked the little snake. This is a heart-eating snake. It is just a low-level monster. It does not have much combat power, but its perception of danger is far beyond
Some high-level monsters, the man in yellow relied on their abilities to avoid many dangers.
"Hiss~hiss~" The Heart-Eating Snake made a small sound. Hearing the sound, the man in yellow looked happy. He knew from the Heart-Eating Snake's cry that there was no danger here.
"After all, it's just an assessment. After passing many previous tests and coming here, maybe I am the one destined for Xuanhe Dan!" The man in yellow thought smugly, and his figure rushed towards the formation eye.
"Charming~" At this time, a laughter that was cold enough to freeze the soul rang out.
The face of the man in yellow changed drastically, and the heart-eating snake got into his sleeve in an instant, not daring to show its head.
I saw a long crack suddenly opened up on the gray ground. From it, a withered and pale arm suddenly stretched out. The white shadow flashed, and a tall and thin humanoid figure appeared in front of him. It turned out to be a
Insect corpse.
man in yellow
The moment he saw the insect corpse, his face suddenly twisted in horror.
Speaking of which, this insect corpse is not special, and its aura is not too strong. The only difference from other insect corpses is its empty blood-red pupils.
However, the moment he saw these pupils, the man in yellow seemed to have fallen into an abyss of blood. He was surrounded by countless insect corpses, rushing towards him with their teeth and claws, biting and gnawing at his flesh and blood.
His bones, no matter what he did, it was of no avail. He could only watch his body being eaten away cleanly.
"Charming~" The blood-eyed insect corpse looked at the human beings in front of him who were in endless fear. There was a hint of greed in the empty pupils. The white shadow flashed and completely engulfed him...
At the fork in the road, Xiao Che and others were moving forward quickly. Ever since they discovered the changes in the spiritual energy fluctuations, they rushed towards the source of the spiritual energy non-stop.
It is strange to say that since rescuing Teng Qingshi, they have not encountered attacks from black insect corpses and bloody cuckoos again, and their progress has been smooth, as if all the monsters have been eliminated.
"Something's wrong!" Xiao Che was suspicious. Suddenly he caught a glimpse of a light spot on the induction talisman that suddenly disappeared, and his heart suddenly froze.
According to his inference, the location of the light spot was roughly the eye area, and the light spot had never moved, which reflected his guess, but now it suddenly disappeared.
"Did we encounter some danger?" Apart from this guess, he couldn't think of any other reason.
While he was thinking about it, the spiritual energy in the alleyway had become very strong. Hearing it made people feel refreshed, and the energy they had consumed gradually recovered.
"The formation is ahead!" Xia Mengling said happily. Being trapped in this dark and lonely maze for several hours made her eager to leave.
Not only her, but several others also held this idea.
"Be careful. The owner of the ruins has been planning for so long and will definitely not let us escape easily. The place of formation is definitely full of unimaginable dangers." Xiao Che said in an unusually solemn tone, combining the disappearing light spots and
With the increasingly violent spiritual energy fluctuations, he had almost guessed the danger at the center of the formation.
"What should we do?" Teng Qingshi asked anxiously.
In this regard, Xiao Che felt helpless. The owner of the ruins had set up a conspiracy. Even if he knew the danger ahead, he could only step forward because breaking the formation was the only way for them to get out of this maze.
"You guys wait for me here, I'll go find out the truth first." The top priority was that he had to find out the situation.
"Be careful." Xia Mengling said worriedly.
"Yes." With a slight nod, Xiao Che turned into a shadow and sneaked into the alleyway quietly.
He followed the fluctuations of spiritual energy and turned a fork in the road. What appeared in front of him was a huge white light source, surrounded by a circle of red crystals, emitting a hazy crimson light.
Xiao Che recognized those crystals as the Lingluo Life Crystals. The spiritual energy in the Life Crystals was continuously input into the light source, and the energy in the light source flowed into the array below. It can be seen that this light source is the maze array.
There is no doubt that the law has an eye.
Feeling the majestic energy in it, Xiao Che narrowed his eyes slightly. Such a rich aura was almost comparable to the Swamp Demon King and Dark Nightmare Beast he had seen. In other words, this light source was equivalent to a strong Fusion Realm.
The one constantly supplies strength.
Thinking of this, a flash of relief flashed in Xiao Che's eyes, and he murmured: "If this is the case, then there is still a chance!"
