As soon as he stepped on the magic weapon, Xiao Hua flew to the lake.
When he arrived at the lake, Xiao Hua discovered that the small island in the center of the lake was actually a volcanic crater rising high from the ground, and magma was slowly flowing out of the crater.
There is an open space in the eye of this volcano crater where no magma has flowed.
There were three middle-aged men in strange clothes in the open space, each holding an apricot-yellow triangular flag and working together to trap and kill a large level seven silk-winged demon moth.
"Senior Brother Ruan, there are other monks here. What should we do now?"
A middle-aged man with a blue scarf on his head asked the eldest of the three.
"Now is the critical moment. Ignore him for now. If this person wants to take advantage of the situation, Junior Brother Li and I will hold the monster back. You go kill him and then come back to help us. He is only in the early stage of the Golden Elixir, so don't worry."
The oldest brother Ruan is in the late stage of Jin Dan, and the other two are in the middle stage of Jin Dan.
These three middle-aged men seemed to be activating some kind of formation together, and the entire island was shrouded in a thin layer of black mist.
The seventh-level silk-winged demon moth was firmly locked in the center of the formation by countless mana chains transformed from black energy.
Under the silk-winged demon moth, at the center of the formation, there is a strange pattern shining with black light.
The three people kept waving apricot-yellow flags and murmuring words, while black energy from the flags continued to fly out and merge into the mana chain locked on the silk-winged demon moth. The mana chain was getting thicker and tightening.
The silk-winged demon moth in the magic circle seemed to have lost its vitality. It struggled with all its strength but could not move. It could only watch the magic chain on its body tightening and let out bursts of whines.
"Huh? What kind of formation are they doing? Can they actually make a seventh-level monster unable to fight back? It seems that these chains made of black energy can seal the magic power in the monster's body."
Xiao Hua was curious.
Ever since he used the magic circle to leapfrog monsters in Lingshan, he had become very interested in the way of magic. He had previously planned to go to Qiuye Valley to find Juan'er as soon as he could exchange the items he needed.
One is that he wants to hand over the "Tang Pear Blossom" to Juan'er's master, and the other is that he wants Juan'er to help him repair the "Tiangan Liujia Formation".
Of course, he also wanted to learn more about formations from Juaner.
"It's almost time. The mana of this silk-winged demon moth has been exhausted. Junior Brother Kang, be prepared."
Senior Brother Ruan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the demon moth in the formation had slowly stopped struggling.
"Okay, I'll start grabbing the soul now."
After finishing speaking, Junior Brother Kang took out a round jade jar engraved with runes from his storage bag, placed it on the formation pattern in front of him, and opened the lid smoothly.
"Kaom Zhebeini, Surata Tacho, Kaum Zhedongtuo, Suta Dodoni, Om... well...".
An obscure incantation came from Junior Brother Kang's mouth.
The formation pattern under the silk-winged demon moth began to change from black light to five-color fluorescence, and the black mana chains locked on the silk-winged demon moth also glowed with bursts of five-color fluorescence following the spell.
The seventh-level demon moth in the formation suddenly let out a strange cry, "hiss...wu..." and began to shake violently.
Countless tiny golden dusts shook violently with the demonic moth, and soon filled the entire magic circle.
"Hey, what's going on?".
Junior Brother Kang, who was casting a soul-seizing spell, felt the scenery suddenly change.
The silk-winged demon moth in the formation and the lake near the surrounding hills disappeared, and the three of them were on a desolate mountaintop full of whirlwinds.
"No, we've been hit by the silk-winged demon moth's vision. Everyone, please hold your breath."
That senior brother Ruan also realized that something was wrong,
It turns out that this silk-winged demon moth does not have powerful physical attack capabilities like other demonic beasts, but it can cast a "phantom dust" that can cause illusions.
This kind of illusion caused by visionary phantom dust is very different from the illusion in the ordinary illusion array.
The illusions produced by ordinary illusion arrays are composed of external mana, and can be broken as long as you find the eye of the array. After all, you are awake.
But the illusions produced by the phantom dust are generated by one's own spiritual thoughts, which is equivalent to taking a drug. It is impossible to distinguish what is true and what is false, so how can it be broken?
"What should we do? Senior brother, what should we do?"
Junior Brother Kang was a little panicked.
"Don't panic, we just need to hold our breath and quickly refine the phantom dust that has been breathed into the body, and this illusion will disappear."
Senior Brother Ruan sat cross-legged as he spoke and immediately began to practice the exercises.
"Huh? What are they doing?".
Xiao Hua stood by the lake and was a little puzzled.
He clearly saw that the silk-winged demon moth was about to be crushed by the black chain, but these people suddenly stopped casting spells and began to meditate.
There was no one controlling the magic circle, and the black chains locked on the silk-winged demon moth began to slowly fade.
Not long after, the silk-winged demon moth broke free from the shackles of the mana chain, flapped its wings and flew out of the center of the magic circle.
On the top of a mountain filled with whirlwinds, three big men were collectively exercising their skills to refine the visionary dust in their bodies.
Suddenly, a red light flew out of the whirlwind and headed straight for Junior Brother Li, who was silent among the three.
Junior Brother Li was refining the phantom dust in his body when his eyelids suddenly twitched and he felt that danger was approaching him. He didn't have time to get up and rolled on the spot to avoid the red light.
"Pfft, chila chila...".
The red light dug a deep hole into the ground, and earth and rocks flew everywhere.
"Brother, this, this is not an illusion, how can there be an attack?"
Junior Brother Li looked embarrassed.
"No, we are only focusing on refining. The demon moth must have escaped from the magic circle. Everyone, be careful."
Brother Ruan only now remembered that they were only focusing on refining the visionary dust in their bodies and had stopped casting spells.
"What should I do?".
Junior Brother Li is even more anxious. They are blind now.
"There is nothing we can do now. We can only get rid of the illusion by continuing to refine. In this way, Junior Brother Li, you will protect me and Junior Brother Kang first. After we get rid of the illusion and go out to trap the demon moth, you can refine again."
"This? Okay, then I will protect the two senior brothers first, and you will step up the refining."
Junior Brother Li raised his right hand, and a golden short sword appeared in his hand, and he began to protect the two of them.
At this moment, the seventh-level silk-winged demon moth suddenly flapped its wings toward the three people on the ground.
For a moment, the wind roared, sand and stones danced wildly, and the clothes of the three people were blown away.
In the strong wind, wind blades formed by mana flew out from time to time, making a "pop" sound on the armor or shields of several people, making everyone unable to concentrate.
Not long after, "swish", another red light flew out of the whirlwind and hit Junior Brother Li who was protecting the law. This was the silk-winged demon moth's long tongue and mouthpart, and it was also the silk-winged demon moth's only physical attack method.
Junior Brother Li swung his sword to block it, and there was a crisp sound. The sword in his hand almost flew away. After all, this silk-winged demon moth was a seventh-level monster, and its attack power was comparable to that of the late Golden Core.
The silk-winged demon moth missed a hit, put away its long tongue, flapped its wings, and quietly flew behind Junior Brother Kang. Unfortunately, the three big men who were caught in the illusion were unable to detect the silk-winged demon moth's actions.
Hearing "Dang, poof...", a long tongue emitting red light flew out of the wind and penetrated Junior Brother Kang, who was very close to the silk-winged demon moth.
Junior Brother Kang's shield was shattered, and red light penetrated his chest from his back, bringing out a large piece of blood mist.
