The two of them didn't know where the people from the Jiuhua Sect were being held in the formation, so they could only walk around randomly along the edge of the ferocious beast formation.
But in the great formation, blood veins crisscrossed each other, connecting everywhere like a spider web. Many members of the Jiuli tribe were scattered among them. They closed their eyes and worked hard to convey the spiritual energy in their bodies, turning a deaf ear to the things around them. Among these people, disciples from various sects were also mixed in.
Mu Jingyu originally thought that the high priest would distribute them according to various factions, but unexpectedly, they were arranged separately. They must also be worried that they will gather together to resist under the leadership of the elders of each faction.
But this made Mu Jingyu's search more difficult. In addition, he only dared to search on the edge and could not go deep into it. It would not be easy to find the elders of Jiuhua Sect in a short time.
Yi Hong pointed to the monk of Lingjue Temple who was on the edge of the formation and said: "Junior Brother Mu, I think it's hard to find the elders of the master's sect. They must have been imprisoned by the high priest in the center of the formation. Otherwise, you can first talk to Could you please inquire about this disciple of Lingjue Temple?"
"No." Mu Jingyu shook his head and said: "Now that we are disguised, we cannot easily restore our true colors. Besides, I have never seen this master of Lingjue Temple. He rashly reveals his identity. Can he be allowed to do so?" I believe it is still unknown.”
"Hey, that's what you said. It seems that we can only find people we know well first." Yi Hong looked into the distance, but everywhere he looked, there were no disciples of the Jiuhua Sect.
"Let's look elsewhere." Mu Jingyu quickened his pace. The two of them found a reason to trick Nachuan. If they stayed here for a long time, it would inevitably make him suspicious. By then, if he couldn't find a way to break the formation and couldn't explain it clearly to the Jiuhua sect disciples, he would have no chance to rescue them.
The two of them traveled a few miles further and found that the situation was the same in another formation, and they did not find a disciple of the Jiuhua Sect. Just as Mu Jingyu was getting anxious, he suddenly saw two formations intersecting, and there seemed to be a familiar figure in the deep pit used to discard the disciples of each sect.
Mu Jingyu walked down the slope beside him and said at the same time: "Senior Brother Yi, I seem to see a familiar person. Please help me guard here first, and I will go down and take a look."
Yi Hong said something careful and looked in the direction where Mu Jingyu went down, and sure enough he saw a figure wearing Jiuhua sect clothing lying among the corpses.
Mu Jingyu kept his body short and quickly approached the man while trying not to expose his figure.
"Senior brother, senior brother?" Mu Jingyu came to this man, patting his back and calling softly. But no matter how he called, he got no response.
"Junior Brother Mu, maybe he is dead." Yi Hong said softly from above: "This is located in a large formation, and people from the Jiuli tribe will pass by at any time. Come up quickly."
Of course, Mu Jingyu knew that only those righteous disciples who died would be abandoned here. But he finally saw a disciple of his sect. Even if he was abandoned here, he still held a glimmer of hope in his heart.
Mu Jingyu called out a few more times unwillingly, but still received no response. Just when he sighed and was about to give up, he felt his chest rise and fall slightly.
"You still have breath!" Mu Jingyu not only screamed with joy, but also hurriedly pressed his left hand on the back of his heart, and a pure innate spiritual energy flowed into it.
"Ahem!" The man coughed loudly several times, followed by a few heavy breaths.
Mu Jingyu carefully turned him over so that his face was facing up. After holding his sleeve to wipe the blood that had just spurted out on his face, he couldn't help but exclaimed: "Zhao Yi, Senior Brother Zhao!"
Zhao Yi was originally in the Zhishou Hall with Mu Jingyu, and was one of the guards. Originally, Mu Jingyu had completely forgotten about him after he jumped down from the jade flute stage. If he hadn't returned to the mountain to deliver a message on behalf of Liu Jian half a year ago, and was recognized and rescued by Zhao Yi when Yuan Fang took the opportunity to kill him, how could he have recognized him at a glance at this time.
"You...you are...who..." Zhao Yi was obviously seriously injured. Even if he was awakened by Mu Jingyu's spiritual energy, he was still weak and didn't have much strength left.
"I'm Mu Jingyu! Have you forgotten?" Mu Jingyu hurriedly lifted the human skin cotton mask from his face, but after Zhao Yi took a look, he hurriedly covered it back.
"Junior Brother Mu, you... you are finally here." Zhao Yi just glanced at him and had no doubt about Mu Jingyu's identity. I struggled to sit up, but my body was too weak, so I tried several times but failed.
"Senior Brother Zhao, don't move." Mu Jingyu quickly supported Zhao Yi and said, "You are too weak to move. It's not too late to talk after I heal your injuries."
"No need." Zhao Yi knew his situation, because he had consumed all his energy in the fierce beast formation and was already in a state of exhaustion. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been thrown into a pit as a corpse. If Mu Jingyu hadn't arrived in time, he might have lost his life in a coma.
"What are you talking about? As long as I, Mu Jingyu, am here, you won't die." Mu Jingyu didn't care about that, and forcefully entered the spiritual energy, hoping to extend Zhao Yi's life.
However, after he personally explored Zhao Yi's internal meridians, he realized that what Zhao Yi said was true. The meridians in his body have long since withered and shrunk. Where is the trace of true energy flowing? Even in the dantian, there is no true energy generated. If he hadn't used spiritual energy to forcefully keep him alive, he might not even have the strength to open his eyes.
"Hey, if Brother Qin is here, there may be other ways." Now, Mu Jingyu regretted not bringing Qin Yunchuan in with him. With the help of his medical skills, Zhao Yi might be able to be saved.
But he also knew that all regrets were useless at this moment. Putting aside whether Qin Yunchuan could successfully follow him in and infiltrate, the situation in front of him was beyond his expectation.
"How... well, senior brother, I am... right." Seeing that life has come to an end, with no possibility of turning around, Zhao Yi did not show any sadness: "I can... can I die before I die?" Once I see you, I will be satisfied.”
Zhao Yi said so many words in one breath and felt that the life in his body was passing faster. He coughed a few times and continued: "Ahem...Junior Brother Mu...you...if you have anything to ask, just ask quickly. I...I'm afraid I can't hold on...for much longer."
Mu Jingyu looked at Zhao Yi's increasingly pale face and felt the fire of life that was about to be extinguished in his body. He didn't have time to feel sad for him and quickly asked: "Brother Zhao, do you know where the elders in our sect are? I There is a way to rescue them all in one visit.”
"The master, the master, and several leaders are all...all imprisoned in the stone statues in the temple. And the many uncles and uncles...ahem...they are imprisoned in the ferocious beast array."
Seeing Zhao Yi say so many words in a row and his breath getting weaker and weaker, Mu Jingyu once again mobilized the spiritual energy in the Jiuyao Xuanguang Chain to extend his life.
"I know everything you said. However, I haven't found any uncle or uncle among the elders of the sect. Do you have the exact location?"
"Others...I don't know about the others...I only know...Master Zhou Rong...she is trapped in the black turtle...in the ferocious beast formation. It's not far from here...you should be able... If we can find her, we must rescue all the fellow disciples...and disciples from all sects..."
After Zhao Yi finished speaking, his head tilted and he was completely lifeless. No matter how Mu Jingyu called or used his spiritual energy to save him, there was no response at all.
"Senior Brother Zhao, don't worry, I will definitely rescue them." Since childhood, too many people have passed away before my eyes. He had long since learned to hide his sadness and turn it into motivation.
Gently putting down Zhao Yi's body, Mu Jingyu watched him close his eyes, with a peaceful look on his face. Knowing that before he died, he could see himself and hope to rescue his fellow disciples, there would be no regrets.
"Is he... dead?" When Yi Hong saw Mu Jingyu walking up from the pit with heavy steps, he knew that his fellow disciple was hopeless.
"Huh... let's go." Mu Jingyu didn't answer, and walked first towards the black turtle and beast array that Zhao Yi pointed to.
"Hey, hey, hey, Junior Brother Mu, please wait for me." Yi Hong didn't expect Mu Jingyu to leave immediately, so he quickly caught up with him and asked, "What did he tell you? Are you coming again?" Where to go?"
Because Mu Jingyu and Zhao Yi were some distance away from Yi Hong, and because Yi Hong's cultivation level was not high, he only vaguely heard a little bit, but did not hear the whole conversation clearly.
"Go to the black turtle formation and rescue Master Zhou." Mu Jingyu said without looking back.
Yi Hong asked in confusion: "Is Master Zhou among the black turtles? But did he tell you?"
"Yes." Mu Jingyu nodded and said, "Senior Brother Zhao Yi told me the location of Uncle Zhou before he died."
"Zhao Yi?" Yi Hong hesitated for a moment, obviously not remembering who Mu Jingyu was talking about Zhao Yi.
"Senior Brother Zhao is the guard of our Zhishou Hall. He has been studying with us for three years, so you won't forget him." Mu Jingyu frowned and looked at Yi Hong in confusion.
At first, because of his poor qualifications and because of Mo Yunshen, he was often ostracized and ridiculed by his fellow disciples, and he only interacted with a few people such as Qin Yunchuan, Zhou Yan, Su Yingying, Shen Mengdie, etc. And it will be three years later, when he jumps off the jade flute platform, that he will no longer remember Zhao Yi.
But Yi Hong has been in Jiuhua Mountain from beginning to end. Even if he is following Han Yao, he should not forget Zhao Yi.
"Hahaha, it turns out to be Senior Brother Zhao!" Yi Hong touched his nose, laughed twice and said: "After the entrance disciple examination, I worshiped at the foot of Jin Yuan Peak, and Senior Brother Zhao worshiped at the foot of Feilu Peak. We usually have less Because of the contact, I didn’t think of him for a moment.”
Mu Jingyu nodded, knowing that Yi Hong was right. The entire Jiuhua Sect not only has nine peaks, but also has thousands of disciples. Unless they belong to the same lineage, they rarely see each other.
Mu Jingyu turned around and continued walking in the direction of the Black Turtle and Ferocious Beast Formation. As he walked, he explained: "Senior Brother Zhao told me that he does not know the whereabouts of the other senior uncles. He only knows that Senior Uncle Zhou In the black turtle formation. Let’s go there now to find her, then check her condition and make the next plan.”
"Okay! What are we waiting for? Let's go quickly." With his goal in mind, Yi Hong obviously felt much more relaxed. He walked side by side with Mu Jingyu and passed through the formation of ferocious beasts in front of him.
It's not that Mu Jingyu wants to find the Jiuhua disciples, it's because he hasn't found a way to break the formation yet. After discussing with Yi Hong, he decided that if he still couldn't find it, he would first contact the disciples of the Jiuhua Sect and tell them that he would take advantage of the weak defense in the temple to go to the temple to destroy Chi You's body in person. Use brute force to break the formation so that they can all be rescued.
If the righteous disciples had not received the news in advance, how would they have prepared themselves if something unexpected happened during another physical battle with Chi You.
Walking along the winding road of the ferocious beast formation, except for the people in the formation who had their Qi absorbed, there were only a few Jiuli tribesmen who brought some food to the tribesmen in the formation. Therefore, the figures of the two people walking in a hurry seemed particularly abrupt.
Fortunately, he didn't attract the attention of the Jiuli tribe until he got close to the formation of black turtles and ferocious beasts.
Standing at the head of the black turtle, looking at the large formation with a radius of four to five miles, Mu Jingyu was momentarily troubled. There are probably no less than two to three hundred Jiuli tribesmen and disciples from various sects here, and they are more than ten feet apart from each other. He only knew from Zhao Yi's mouth that Zhou Rong was trapped here, but he didn't make it clear where he was. Where should he find it?
Some people died, but not completely...
