Shortly after Liuli and the group of divine beast youths fell into the golden light in the mountains, more than a thousand Buddhist disciples flew out from various corners of the mountains and gathered in the air.
One of the older monks looked at an old monk in gray robes and asked in a low voice, "Elder Zhimo, did you see clearly just now that the one who followed the evil fox into the formation was indeed Shichan?"
Zhimo's expression was grim. He nodded and sighed softly, "It is indeed him."
Upon hearing Zhimo's words, the faces of the more than one thousand Buddhist disciples in the air all darkened.
After a moment of silence, Zhimo turned to a young monk behind him and said in a deep voice, "Shili, go into the formation and try to persuade Shichan to come out. This time, we Buddhist disciples have mobilized ten thousand disciples to set up this formation, vowing to kill the evil fox. We must not let Shichan ruin things!"
Shi Li nodded in agreement, and his body quickly descended, soon disappearing into the vast golden light above the mountains.
Zhimo looked around at the more than a thousand Buddhist disciples in the air and said, "Everyone, please take action as soon as possible and kill all the demonic birds within a thousand miles. We must not let them send news back to the demon race that the evil fox has fallen into the formation."
More than a thousand Buddhist disciples nodded in agreement and dispersed in groups of three or five, flying off in all directions.
Soon enough, the demonic birds scattered in the sky above the mountains were all killed by the Buddhist disciples. As a result, even if Li Molin summoned all the demonic birds scattered in the Central Plains, he would not be able to find out about Liuli.
When Shi Li found Liu Li and Shi Chan in the formation, the two, one human and one fox, were still silently staring at each other. The slight whooshing sound of Shi Li descending startled them. When Shi Chan turned his head and saw him, his subconscious action was to pull Liu Li and protect her behind him.
Liuli peeked at Shili from behind Shichan, then turned her gaze away and looked around, taking in the scene around her.
They were in a valley filled with lush greenery, and hidden beneath the vegetation were mountain springs that gurgled and flowed gently. A thin layer of golden mist shrouded the valley, obscuring Liuli's vision, so when she looked into the distance, she could only see the blurry silhouettes of endless, undulating mountain peaks.
It's unclear whether it was due to the formation, but before Liuli fell, there were many divine beast boys around her, but after she landed on the ground, not a single divine beast was with her.
Liuli's expression changed slightly as she thought to herself that they were probably separated by the formation after they fell.
At this moment, Liuli's demonic power had been restored, but the abundant spiritual power around her had all turned into Buddhist power, which made her extremely uncomfortable.
Upon landing and seeing Shi Chan's actions, Shi Li's expression darkened. He looked Shi Chan up and down, a hint of regret flashing in his eyes, and said, "Shi Chan, what Master said is indeed true. You are the most insightful and the most suitable person to cultivate Buddhism among all our fellow disciples. Now even I, your senior brother, can't see your level anymore. You must have at least reached the mid-stage of Nirvana, right?"
Shi Chan bowed and replied, "What you say is correct, senior brother. I, Shi Chan, am only at the mid-stage of Nirvana."
Shi Li shook his head and sighed, lamenting, "It's such a pity that such an outstanding disciple of our Buddhist sect was ruined by that wicked fox!"
Shi Chan lowered his eyes and did not answer, but he still firmly protected Liuli behind him, without moving an inch.
Shi Li's expression turned cold, and he said in a deep voice, "Shi Chan, Uncle Zhi Mo sent me into the formation to persuade you. This formation is about to be activated, so you should leave as soon as possible!"
