Chapter 325: The Mist Formation, the True and False Black Bear Demon
He originally thought that this so-called ancient cave dwelling would be located in some secret place, and would only be discovered after someone broke in unexpectedly.
Unexpectedly, this ancient cave dwelling was located in the mountains and forests, and from a distance, one could see the extraordinary atmosphere inside.
In a situation like this, it should have been discovered long ago. How could it have waited until now?
"This is because we destroyed a key point of the formation when we escaped last time.
This caused the aura in the cave to leak out.
However, there were only a few strange phenomena before, but I didn’t expect that in just less than half a year, the leaked signs have become so obvious.
I just hope that during this time, no one else will come in and snatch away the opportunity."
Violet noticed the confusion on Chen Yushu's face, and first explained, then a hint of worry appeared on her face.
“It shouldn’t be that case.
This place is remote and desolate.
The nearest county is our Tianling County. The other side is a hundred miles away from here, with mountain roads full of ferocious beasts and more than one ghost mountain. Ordinary people dare not go deep into it."
The God-favored One beside him shook his head, with a hint of hesitation on his face, and said, "But judging from the current situation, we really need to act quickly and get the things.
Otherwise, sooner or later, others will find out."
"yes.
Although there are few people living around here, it is not completely uninhabited.
There is a small town dozens of miles away.
There's no guarantee that the old man who was collecting herbs might stumble in here and spread the news."
The wine gourd is also open.
As soon as the words came out, everyone's heart tightened, and without hesitation, they hurried over quickly.
Chen Yushu looked at the scene in the distance, his brows slightly furrowed.
soon.
The group arrived at the entrance of the canyon.
Rustling...
In the dense woods, poisonous snakes are lurking around.
After sensing people approaching, several of them were startled and rushed over like lightning.
The one favored by God was quick-eyed and quick-handed. He swung the ruler in his hand and chopped the heads of the poisonous snakes in two.
"When did so many poisonous snakes gather here?"
Jiuhulu said in surprise.
"It must be the spiritual energy leaking out of the cave that attracted these beasts.
But this is a good thing.
The gathering of poisonous snakes forms a natural barrier.
This proves that no one has entered.”
As Violet spoke, he slapped his waist and a packet of yellow paper immediately appeared in his hand. He opened the yellow paper and revealed a piece of yellow powder. It didn't spill out, but a strong smell was already coming out.
When the surrounding poisonous snakes smelled the scent, they immediately retreated and fled as if they had met their natural nemesis.
"Let's go.
Go in first.
I hope there are no changes to the formation inside.
Otherwise, it would be troublesome to find the center of the formation again and break through it."
Violet said as she took the lead and walked in.
Naturally, other people had no objections.
Soon the group entered the canyon.
Looking into the canyon now, they found that the previous strange vision was gone. The vegetation and trees were just more lush than in other places, and there were more wild beasts and ferocious beasts lurking there.
Even Chen Yushu didn't notice anything too obvious.
It wasn't until they had gone three or four miles deeper into the canyon, and reached between two huge rocks, that Chen Yushu let out a surprised sound and said, "This is actually a formation within a formation?"
"Fellow psychic, have you also studied this formation?"
Upon hearing this, Jiuhulu couldn't help but reveal a hint of surprise on his face.
Chen Yushu nodded without saying anything.
Instead, he carefully examined the formation.
This entire formation is obviously extremely sophisticated.
Only around this huge rock are there some traces, and if you don't walk in, you can hardly find them.
Chen Yushu observed carefully and soon relaxed his mind. He had already seen a clue of it.
After all, he had studied the formation for a period of time before, and his understanding of the formation had reached a very high level. Now looking at this large formation, he quickly figured out the clues by following the clues.
"how?
Is there a way to crack it?"
Violet asked curiously.
“This method of getting in and out is not difficult.
The difficult part is that after entering, there is a maze.
If you can't get out of the maze quickly, you'll easily fall into a killing array. Even if you can get out, it will take a lot of effort."
Chen Yushu pondered for a moment and then spoke.
“That’s right.
The last time we entered, we were very passive because of the fog.
If we hadn't been able to communicate in time with the sensor disk, we would have lost one or two people."
The eyes of the gods' favored ones were full of amazement when they looked at Chen Yushu.
He didn't expect that Chen Yushu actually knew a lot about formations.
"yes.
If it weren't for Fellow Daoist Violet's profound attainments in the art of formations, we might have been trapped in the mist formation and unknowingly led into the killing formation."
When he said this, Jiuhulu still showed a trace of lingering fear on his face.
At that time, he was only a few steps away from reaching the range of the killing array.
However, he was not sure he could break through the ancient monk's killing formation.
Not to mention, the power of the previous formation was at its peak, and he did not have the strength of the peak of the Dao and the Out-of-Body Realm at that time. If he really stepped into it, he might not be able to escape safely.
“Since fellow psychic also understands formations, our confidence in this trip will be even greater.
The known threats in this cave are not so serious.
It is this ancient formation that is extremely difficult to deal with.
It will take time for us to break the formation, and if we get caught in it carelessly, we will be in a very embarrassing situation.
Plus there's the black bear demon watching closely.
After all, the other party is familiar with the formation. If they use the formation to attack us, it will be bad.
It's okay now.
With the help of a fellow psychic, we will be able to break the formation faster than last time."
Violet's tone was also filled with joy.
Then, her expression became serious, and without hesitation, she said directly: "Let's go in.
We followed the same method as before, walking in between the two huge rocks and then walking out.
At that time, you will directly enter the fog formation.
But once you're inside, don't move around casually.
It's best to stand still and wait for me or my fellow psychic to see through the mysteries of the formation, and then we'll naturally guide you out."
Then, Violet said with a serious face.
"Don't worry!"
"The rest of the journey will depend on Fellow Daoist Violet and Fellow Daoist Psychic."
Jiuhulu and the God's Favored One both nodded.
Upon hearing this, Chen Yushu naturally didn't say much, knowing that they had already figured out how to enter and exit the formation.
The reason why he showed his mastery of formations was actually to demonstrate his strength appropriately.
After all, they were all nice to him, so he naturally wouldn't back down if he could help.
So, several people did not speak, but their minds were silently connected with the sensor disk.
Following Violet's method, several people walked in and out of the boulder.
And then the moment you step out.
Chen Yushu felt his body flash and his eyes blurred.
The surroundings immediately turned into endless white mist.
Even with Chen Yushu's eyesight, he could only see a few feet around him, and everything farther away seemed a little blurry.
His spiritual sense was probed out, but it was like mud entering the sea, and was being consumed rapidly. Although it could increase his perception range from the original ten feet to about three feet, the speed at which his spiritual sense was consumed was indeed not slow.
With the strength of his mental power, he can only maintain it for about an hour.
“Everyone, don’t move.
This fog array will change with every step, and will unknowingly lead people into a deadly array or a killing array.
My fellow psychic and I will break the formation as quickly as possible and lead everyone out."
Soon, Violet's voice came from the sensor disk.
The fog array affects the eyes and perception, which can easily make people panic. Even a strong person in the Dao realm will feel helpless in such an environment and walk around in a panic.
But if they move forward, the changes in the formation will soon push them into a desperate and killing formation.
By then, the danger level will be extremely high.
"rest assured!"
"We are all very alert."
Jiuhulu and the God's Favored One were both veterans. After receiving the warning, they would certainly not move. The sound was also transmitted from the sensing disk in time.
At this time, Chen Yushu also began to observe this formation carefully.
“The mystical aspects of this formation are truly extraordinary.
The fog array affects people's perception, and there is also a magic array of bewitching souls and illusions embedded in it.
Even if you stand still, you will be affected, and illusions will appear to guide the monks inside to move..."
Chen Yushu was in the formation and saw many of the changes more clearly. He soon made a discovery and quickly said, "Even if you hear or see any illusions, don't move.
This formation also contains illusion formations and bewitching formations, making it impossible to defend against them."
As he spoke, Chen Yushu had already seen a clue to the key point in the surrounding magic circle and took a step forward.
Buzz buzz buzz
The surroundings shook slightly, and the fog seemed to dissipate a little.
And his mental perception also followed suit, and his eyes looked ten feet away.
But at the same time, he felt a flash before his eyes, and suddenly a terrifying figure with a green face and fangs appeared and pounced towards him quickly.
"One step, one illusion?"
Seeing this, Chen Yushu was not moved at all.
Because he knew that this was the effect of an illusion, the revelation of light and shadow.
In front of him, there was nothing at all. If he took a step back because of the illusion, the formation would be deployed immediately, thus triggering the killing formation and ushering in the real murderous intent of the formation.
So, Chen Yushu's expression remained unchanged, and he just calmly watched the ghost with a green face and fangs rushing towards him, and then it quickly broke into pieces like a piece of cloth and disappeared without a trace.
Chen Yushu suddenly realized and took another step forward.
Suddenly, his visual range and spiritual perception power expanded a little bit again.
“Fortunately, my accumulation of formation skills is quite solid.
Although this formation is complicated, it is not difficult for me."
Chen Yushu followed suit and took a few more steps, feeling suddenly relieved.
After a few steps, the fog around him had dissipated for the most part, and even the power of his spiritual perception had expanded to a distance of ten feet.
In the distance, he even saw Violet's figure, just ten feet away.
At this time, the other party seemed a little confused, and was about to lift his feet, as if hesitating about where to take the next step.
"Fellow Daoist Violet, move one foot to the left."
Seeing this, Chen Yushu quickly used the sensor disk to notify.
In the formation, the space is distorted, and his voice may not be heard, and it may also be affected by the distortion of the formation. Therefore, the most correct approach is to use the induction disk to transmit messages.
“It’s a fellow psychic.
Thank you, fellow psychic, for your guidance!"
Violet was a little hesitant at first, but she could also feel the direction of breaking the formation. After hearing Chen Yushu's explanation, she understood it almost instantly and took the next step.
Then, with its perception range greatly increased, it immediately noticed Chen Yushu's whereabouts and a smile immediately appeared on its face.
Chen Yushu nodded slightly, as a greeting, and quickly took another step forward, one step, two steps, three steps...
Suddenly, the fog around him dissipated as he took step by step, and the range of his spiritual sense also increased greatly, until it enveloped the figures of the God-Followed Person and Jiuhulu.
At this moment, they looked nervous, as if facing a great enemy, as if they were resisting the temptation of the illusion array and the bewitching array in the formation. Although they were tormented in their hearts, they always remembered the instructions of Chen Yushu and Ziluolan and did not dare to move.
"Um?"
However, just as Chen Yushu took this step, he suddenly noticed that there was an extra figure in the formation.
A figure about ten feet tall, but completely black and covered with thick hair.
Black bear! Black bear!
It’s that black bear demon!
In an instant, Chen Yushu realized that the figure was the black bear demon guarding this place that Violet, the God's Favored Ones and others had mentioned before.
Obviously, their plan directly alarmed the other party, who then rushed out and wanted to attack them.
Its first target at this time was the wine gourd that was relatively close.
"Be careful with the wine gourd."
Upon seeing this, Chen Yushu quickly used the induction disk to connect with the wine gourd and quickly instructed him: "Take three steps to the left, then one step forward, and then three steps back..."
"Ah? Is this Black Bear Demon real?"
In fact, Jiuhulu also saw the black bear demon.
But he instinctively thought that all this was the influence of an illusion.
Because he had encountered illusion attacks more than once before, if he had not remembered the reminders of Chen Yushu and Ziluolan, he would have almost been unable to restrain himself and take action.
This time, he thought it would be the same, so although he was nervous, he still forced himself not to move.
Hearing Chen Yushu's reminder at this time, he knew that there was something wrong with this black bear. It was actually the one in the medicine garden. He reacted quickly and quickly followed Chen Yushu's instructions and moved quickly.
Just as Chen Yushu said, he seemed to be moving forward, backward, left and right, but in fact he was flying backward. In the blink of an eye, he had opened up a distance of several feet between himself and the black bear demon.
