Chapter 456 Contact
Kong Zhao and everyone else landed in front of the palace, and his expression suddenly changed.
The door of the hall was wide open, and corpses could be seen under the eaves of the door and inside the hall within sight. They were all wearing the clothes of the Leihuo Sect.
Everyone in the Shuihua Sect became increasingly nervous.
An elder said in a deep voice:
"It seems that the Thunder Fire Sect has really been attacked by its enemies. Could it be that they have been wiped out? No matter who did it, such cruel means definitely do not belong to a kind person!"
Another elder snorted coldly:
"These bastards are only doing things that are harmful to the world. I think they deserve to die. It would be better if their entire family is wiped out!"
The elder frowned and said:
"That being said, we still don't know where our sect's disciples are being held. What if they get caught in the crossfire? What will we do?"
"Hiss..." The elder behind also realized this problem, took a breath and stopped talking.
Kong Zhao stared at the hall with frowns, and after a moment, he said in a deep voice:
"Let's go in and take a look."
The group walked in cautiously, swords in hand.
As they continued on their journey, they still didn't see a single living person, but they would occasionally see the corpses of Leihuo Sect disciples.
There was dead silence all around, with only the sound of people's footsteps echoing, which made the atmosphere even more eerie.
Yun Qingqing had already brought Xiao Changheng into the hall first, and she was still within the range of the art of concealing the truth.
She followed Qianlong's perception and soon came to a hall in the palace, only to see Qianlong circling around a stone platform in the center of the hall.
Yun Qingqing's eyes flickered as she looked at the stone platform and frowned for a while.
Soon, footsteps were heard outside. Sect Master Kong Zhao, the elders, and senior disciples all rushed into the hall. After seeing the colorful phantom butterfly, they immediately surrounded the stone platform.
Kong Zhao was about to order a thorough search when he suddenly felt a strong fluctuation of spiritual energy coming from all directions.
The doors and windows of the hall closed in an instant, trapping everyone inside!
Immediately afterwards, countless runes on the walls, floor, and ceiling of the hall began to glow, forming a huge formation.
"Oh no, there's a trap!" an elder exclaimed in surprise.
"Break the formation first!" Master Kong Zhao gave the order quickly while rushing to the edge of the hall first, slashing with sword light, trying to destroy it before the formation was formed.
The elders and disciples immediately dispersed and each used their sword skills to try to break the formation.
However, the power of the formation far exceeded their expectations, and every attack was like a drop in the ocean, without causing any reaction.
The light of the formation grew brighter and brighter, and a strong sense of oppression enveloped the entire hall.
The people of Shuihua Sect sensed the danger and immediately retreated to the center of the hall, forming a circle with their swords facing outwards. They remained vigilant and waited for the sect leader's orders.
At this moment, a low laugh suddenly rang out in the hall. The sound echoed in the hall, but the source of the sound could not be found.
Kong Zhao's face was gloomy and he shouted:
"Who on earth is playing tricks on me? Come out and fight me head-on!"
The voice sounded again, with a hint of sarcasm:
"The Shuihua Sword Sect truly lives up to its reputation, able to break through my Leihuo Sect's mountain protection formation! What a pity... Today, all of you will become nourishment for this formation!"
"What?" Kong Zhao's expression turned stern.
Judging from the meaning of the voice, it is indeed the Leihuo Sect that is manipulating this matter behind the scenes.
What about the corpses of the Leihuo Sect disciples we saw along the way?
Everyone looked around but still couldn't find the person who was speaking.
Yun Qingqing sighed and had an idea.
The Thousand Long Illusion Butterfly responded to her thoughts and suddenly emitted a strong spiritual power fluctuation, attracting everyone's attention.
Kong Zhao looked at the colorful phantom butterfly and suddenly realized something. He rushed to the stone platform below the phantom butterfly, stared at the platform, and made an attacking gesture with his sword.
"Show yourself immediately, or I'll split this stone platform in half!"
Just as she finished speaking, she saw the surface of the stone platform suddenly emit light, and lines of array patterns appeared. Then the light became so bright that it made everyone's eyes go white and temporarily lost their vision.
When everyone's vision returned, they found that the scene before them had changed!
