"Master, the temple's protective formation is activated."
Since the Xunfeng Secret Realm is located within the territory of the Tiancan Temple, the distance from the Xunfeng Secret Realm to the Tiancan Temple is not actually far.
In addition, Liu Yu used several high-level teleportation talismans, and they arrived outside the Heavenly Silkworm Temple in just a few hours.
Looking at the protective array of the temple with its flowing spiritual energy, Xu Ruoyun turned to look at Liu Yu, waiting for him to make his move.
This temple-protecting formation, like the sect-protecting formation, is an extremely high-level formation that cannot be easily opened.
Xu Ruoyun was also one of those who couldn't open it, so she simply looked at Liu Yu, waiting for him to make a move.
Liu Yu naturally heard Xu Ruoyun's words as well. Seeing her impatient nature, he glanced at Gu Borong and signaled him to keep an eye on Xu Ruoyun later.
After receiving Gu Borong's nod, he took out a hook-like object and a token from the Heavenly Silkworm Temple, and placed them together on the temple's protective array.
The temple's protective formation was about to sound an alarm and attack the moment the hook was placed, but it stopped after sensing the token.
After that, the protective array of the temple, which was filled with spiritual light, quietly cracked open, and then slowly grew larger until it was large enough for one person to enter before stopping.
Seeing this, Xu Ruoyun knew it was time to go in and was about to be the first to go in when Gu Borong pressed her head down from behind.
Then, Fu Ziang, who was standing to the side, quickly darted past her and squeezed inside, leaving Xu Ruoyun staring wide-eyed at Gu Borong.
She was clearly criticizing him for holding her down, otherwise she would have been the first one.
Meeting Xu Ruoyun's angry eyes, Gu Borong was not annoyed at all. He calmly took her hand and went over to her before letting her come in behind him.
He also secretly passed her a message: 'Third Junior Sister, the situation at Tiancan Temple is unclear. I'm not comfortable with you going in first. Stay behind me, and I can protect you if anything happens.'
With just one sentence, Xu Ruoyun's eyes went from wide-eyed to smiling broadly, and her originally heroic demeanor softened considerably.
They stared wide-eyed at Shushu, who was nestled in Lu Li's arms behind them.
She didn't hear Gu Borong's words, so she naturally didn't know why her third senior sister had suddenly stopped being angry. She was still a little confused as she looked at the two holding hands.
Is Second Senior Brother really that charming? He only held hands and he was able to win over Third Senior Sister. Tsk tsk tsk, Third Senior Sister is too easy to please, Shushu muttered to himself.
Lu Li and Liu Yu, standing to the side, guessed that Gu Borong, who was full of bad intentions, was probably trying to gain favor again, just like his name suggests. The two of them were speechless.
However, since one of them liked to coax and the other liked to be coaxed, they were too lazy to be the ones to ruin the atmosphere. After Xu Ruoyun went in, Lu Li quickly followed, followed by Liu Yu.
The five members of the group, along with the rat, entered the Heavenly Silkworm Temple without a sound. Liu Yu even took the hook and token with him.
In a short while, the crack closed up again, leaving no trace.
Perhaps due to some unfortunate event, Tiancan Temple is now almost deserted, even in broad daylight. The vast temple is completely empty, giving it a strange sense of loneliness and desolation.
Seeing this, the master and his disciples exchanged glances, and after confirming once again that their invisibility talismans and concealment talismans were in good working order, they quickly headed in one direction under Liu Yu's guidance.
As for why Liu Yu knew the direction, it was naturally because Hui Qing gave him the route.
Soon, the group arrived at the cave where the abbot of Tiancan Temple was in seclusion. They also spotted the people hiding in the shadows, wanting to go up but not daring to, as well as the people patrolling back and forth at the cave entrance.
At first glance, there were quite a few people on patrol, and they were all of considerable cultivation level. Their auras were also somewhat strange, unlike Buddhist cultivators, but more like demonic cultivators, clearly the work of the Demon Lord.
Seeing Cheng Yuan lying there, his eyes fixed on the cave entrance, Fu Zi'ang's gaze shifted, and he volunteered, "Master, I'll go and bring Cheng Yuan over."
Liu Yu was well aware of his fifth disciple's restless nature, and having an acquaintance to guide him would be much easier. Seeing that he wanted to go, he didn't stop him, but still gave him a word of caution: "Go ahead, but be careful, don't make a scene."
"Don't worry, Master, I promise I won't alert them."
Having received permission, Fu Zi'ang immediately rushed out, stealthily approaching the place where Cheng Yuan and the others were hiding, and immediately set up an isolation array.
"who!"
As soon as the isolation array was activated, Cheng Yuan noticed it. He glanced at the patrolmen who were not reacting and first protected his fellow disciples who were also on guard behind him before whispering a command.
Fu Zi'ang noticed that he had noticed him so quickly, and sighed that he was indeed worthy of being the chief, before he showed himself in a generous manner: "Fellow Daoist Chengyuan, it is I."
"Fellow Daoist Fu? What brings you here? No, how did you get in?"
Cheng Yuan knew Fu Ziang. Upon hearing Fu Ziang's voice, he was immediately stunned, and then realized something was wrong.
If I remember correctly, their Heavenly Silkworm Temple is still closed, so how did this guy get in? Could he also be a demon spy?
Thinking of this, Cheng Yuan looked at Fu Zi'ang with a wary gaze, staring at him as if he were an enemy.
"Fellow Daoist Chengyuan, don't be nervous, we're here to rescue people..."
Seeing how nervous he was, Fu Ziang didn't tease him inappropriately, and quickly explained everything in general terms.
He also said that if he didn't believe him, he could ask Cheng Yuan telepathically, as long as he didn't reveal that they had already come here.
There was nothing we could do; those spies were keeping a close watch on us all the time.
At this point, Cheng Yuan naturally wouldn't believe whatever he was told. He quickly and subtly inquired with Cheng Yuan via telepathy and learned that the Liuyue Sect was indeed trustworthy.
In addition, he suddenly remembered that his master had once said: "If something happens to him, remember to go to Liuyue Sect." He himself had known Fu Zi'ang for many years.
So in the end, Cheng Yuan chose to believe him and was no longer as tense as he had been at the beginning.
Actually, among the foreign aid they originally wanted to seek help from, Liuyue Sect was their first choice.
Moreover, Cheng Yuan has a special way to contact his master. As long as he can get through the sealed cave entrance and enter, he will be able to contact his master, provided that his master is still alive.
Therefore, it wouldn't be a bad idea to go there by taking advantage of his influence, Cheng Yuan thought.
The Liuyue Sect members were unaware of his little schemes. Seeing that he had nodded, Liu Yu on the other side also began to take action.
With a light tap of his finger, a large illusion array encompassing the mountain cave was set up in no time.
Upon seeing this, Fu Zi'ang immediately led Cheng Yuan and his fellow disciples back to Liu Yu's side, waiting to go inside together.
