The wind gradually died down, and after the last scream, tranquility returned to the pond illusion.

Chen Xiao frowned and focused on the direction where the sound came from. After a while, Xi Yunting's figure slowly appeared and approached them.

"Brother!" Chen Xiao shouted.

Xi Yunting glanced at him and saw that he was not injured at all. His frosty eyes warmed up a little. He said, "Yan Hai has not surrendered yet, so don't move."

Chen Xiao stood on the mat made of vines, wondering why Xi Yunting didn't come over. A gust of hot wind blew, bringing with it a faint smell of blood.

As if he noticed the change on Chen Xiao's face, Xi Yunting immediately changed to a weak position. This made Chen Xiao a little bit amused. How delicate was he in his elder brother's heart? He couldn't even stand the smell of blood.

But he didn't know that this had nothing to do with being delicate or not. He cared about his face in front of his lover, and Xi Yunting also cared about his image in his eyes.

Tang Ru said: "The illusion has not disappeared yet, so Yan Hai is hiding underground and it is difficult to find him."

After venting his anger, Tong Nuonuo calmed down. He thought for a moment and said, "Unless someone takes this magic weapon away, the only way to eliminate this illusion is to find a way to break it."

Xi Yunting put one hand behind his back and with the other hand held the wide-brimmed hat that had fallen off during the fight and put it on Chen Xiao's head. Chen Xiao then noticed that he had accidentally dropped the wide-brimmed hat. Although the veil blocked his view a little, he still had to guard against the harsh sunlight.

Chen Xiao raised his hand to straighten his hat and said, "How can I break the magic weapon?"

Tong Nuonuo shook his head worriedly: "One way is to find the location of the magic weapon and capture Yan Hai; the other way is to attack with all our strength and defeat the opponent with force. Both methods are a bit difficult."

Chen Xiao thought for a moment and said, "I'll try to use Feng Shui to see if I can find the flaw."

The others were surprised and expectant, and nodded one after another.

Chen Xiao didn't think of this method at first, because there was really no Feng Shui in the wilderness. This place was very desolate and barren, there was no water, and there was no good Feng Shui.

The pond in front of him was slightly rippled, which Chen Xiao originally thought was normal. Now that he knew it was a magic weapon, he could tell something was wrong. Following the faint ripples, he found a node in the sparse woods.

Giving Tang Ru a wink, she immediately used magic. Energy vines as thick as her wrist drilled into the ground of the grove and stirred violently, turning up everything underground.

Yan Hai was thrown up into the sky, his face covered in dust. He adjusted his direction before landing and tried to escape into the ground again. All his men were slaughtered by the killing god-like Jindan sword cultivator. Yan Hai no longer dared to have the fluke of a comeback.

Even if Chen Xiao and the others didn't take action, after a while Yan Hai would escape from the illusion of the pond, and the illusory scene would naturally dissipate. But if they wanted to catch him at that time, it would be difficult.

Xi Yunting's figure flashed, and the image of the heavy sword in his hand flashed. A golden sword light flew out and hit Yan Hai's back fiercely.

"Puff——" Yan Hai spurted out blood again, fell to the ground from the air, and rolled a few times in a mess.

"A Rou, tie him up!"

At Chen Xiao's command, Tang Ru skillfully used the spiritual plant Tengman to tie Yan Hai up like a dumpling with only his head exposed.

Tong Nuonuo took a few big steps forward and kicked Yan Hai: "Let's see how you can run away this time!" He was poisoned by the Yuan Yuan powder and didn't dare to use his true energy at this moment. He kicked Yan Hai several times before stopping angrily.

Tang Ru ran to him, used magic to control Yan Hai to turn over, and shook him violently. The things on Yan Hai's body fell to the ground with a clang. Tang Ru squatted down and turned over the things he had taken from Yan Hai. Yan Hai pleaded with Tang Ru: "Fellow Daoist Tang, I know what you are looking for. I do have the antidote for the Poison Yuan Powder. Untie me and let me give it to you. Don't get your hands dirty."

To be honest, Yan Hai was really dirty now, just like when he suddenly appeared in front of Chen Xiao and the others that day. Not only was his head and face covered with yellow sand, but his hair and body were also covered with it.

This dirty and disheveled appearance, coupled with his timid and powerless look, makes him look very honest. No wonder he always manages to deceive people.

Tang Ru was not a soft-hearted person. She raised her eyes and snorted coldly: "Who is your fellow Taoist? Don't try to make connections!" Tong Nuonuo came over, and Tang Ru handed him a storage bag. "I don't know how many practitioners you have harmed. I guess this storage bag was not originally yours, right?"

The storage bag is the same as the storage box. As long as the spiritual mark is left, others cannot open it. Unless the owner dies, or someone who is proficient in rune array destroys the spiritual mark.

Sweat dripped down Yan Hai's forehead, and streaks of mud flowed down his dusty face. He said, "I was rude, I deserve to die. Miss Tang, three gentlemen, take this storage bag. The antidote to the poisonous Yuan powder and my money are inside. Not only that, I can also tell you what I have gained and the treasures I have obtained over the years. As long as you are willing to let me go, I can give them to you."

Chen Xiao laughed and said to Xi Yunting, "Does he think we are all fools? These people just said that if they slaughtered us fat sheep, they could go to Yingxian Island and enjoy themselves for a while. It can be seen that even if they had any treasures in the past, they have squandered them all."

Xi Yunting nodded: "They are just a group of bandits. They have no Ming Dynasty, so naturally they don't have any treasures."

Seeing that they didn't believe him, Yan Hai said anxiously, "I'm telling the truth! I really have a treasure. Every time I sell the spiritual beads and equipment I robbed, I will take out one-third of the proceeds and hide them. These are for my future enjoyment, and I will naturally not share them with my men."

Tang Ru was very interested in what he said. "Oh? Then where did you hide the treasure?"

Yan Hai's eyes flickered, and he said, "That place is hard to find. I can show you the way."

Chen Xiao was too lazy to continue entangled with Yan Hai. He could see that Yan Hai was looking for a way to escape, and might even set a trap for them next.

He took out a small bottle from the storage box and poured out a pill. He handed the pill to Tong Nonuo and asked Tong Nonuo to force Yan Hai to drink it.

Yan Hai thought it was poison and was scared out of his wits. After all, he was a cultivator, so he blocked his throat with his true energy, and the poison got stuck and didn't fall down at all.

What Chen Xiao gave Yan Hai was not poison at all, but a drug bought from Li Yuzhou that could make people fall asleep immediately. Seeing that he had no reaction, Chen Xiao exclaimed in surprise.

Tang Ru pinched his jaw open and directly used the spiritual plant Tengman to push the pill down. Yan Hai thought he was going to die, and he regretted why he had to show off his cleverness. If he told the truth, he might be able to save his life... Before he finished thinking about this, he fell asleep with his head tilted.

Chen Xiao took out a bottle of medicine and rubbed it under Yan Hai's nose. As he breathed, the powder was inhaled into his body. Chen Xiao asked him, "Where did you say you were going to take us?"

Watching Chen Xiao asking questions, the other three people remained silent. To be honest, Tong Nuonuo and Tang Ru were both impressed by Chen Xiao's brain. This strange drug developed by Li Yuzhou that makes people talk in their sleep was used by him to torture and interrogate!

Xi Yunting looked at Chen Xiao with a proud look. His sweetheart was so smart.

This potion that makes people talk in their sleep is very powerful. Even if a cultivator is in a dream, he will say whatever he is asked, as if he has been poisoned by truth serum. Yan Hai's voice sounded like a dream, saying, "It is a huge stone formation deep in the southeastern mountains. The place is now controlled by a group of evil cultivators. Anyone who dares to approach will be killed."

This answer was something the four of them had never expected! The Southeast Mountains were exactly their target.

Xi Yunting sensed something strange in the conversation, so he asked, "You said there is a Stonehenge there. Did you see it with your own eyes?"

Yan Hai spoke slowly, and he said: "Yes. I said before that many weapon refiners were killed there. These evil cultivators seem to specifically target weapon refiners. As long as a weapon refiner appears in Su Xuan, he will not escape their pursuit. After catching the person, they will take the weapon refiner to the Stonehenge. Because of this, we have to reduce our territory and have been hiding in the wilderness. We have to sleep in the open air and be covered in yellow dust all day long. Even when we went to Yingxian Island, the female cultivators disliked our earthy smell..." In the dream, Yan Hai was unaware of the threat and actually complained.

Xi Yunting asked again: "How long has this group been entrenched in Stonehenge? Do you know what their purpose is?"

"I don't know their specific purpose, nor do I know where they came from. As for how long they have been here, I remember it very clearly, about two or three years..."

Xi Yunting looked a little serious. Chen Xiao asked Tang Ru to continue the interrogation while he and Xi Yunting went to the side to talk. "Brother, something is not right. I don't know if this group of evil cultivators has anything to do with the inheritance of the weapon refining grandmaster?"

Xi Yunting said: "From the perspective of them targeting weapon refiners, it is unlikely that it has nothing to do with the secret collection of the weapon refiner grandmaster."

Chen Xiao was puzzled: "But this bark map is not in their hands, so how did they know this?"

Xi Yunting shook his head gently: "The lack of a bark map does not mean that the Grand Master of Refining has left behind a secret treasure that no one knows about. There is no impenetrable wall in the world. When the Grand Master of Refining hid it, perhaps his relatives and friends knew about it and passed it on to future generations. It is also possible that the person who holds the map accidentally leaked the secret, and it was known to others as a result."

Chen Xiao felt a little heavy-hearted. He had originally thought that it was just a simple adventure to find treasure, but he had never expected that it would turn into a fight to rob someone of their treasure. And the person involved was an evil cultivator who killed people without blinking an eye.

Unable to get anything useful out of Yan Hai, Tang Ru simply killed him. Without the owner, the magic weapon was naturally ineffective, and the poisonous Yuan powder in the storage bag was taken out.

What Yan Hai said was not entirely false, he really had secretly hidden a batch of treasures behind his back. However, the place was not in the southeastern mountains, but in an oasis in the wilderness.
