The night was hazy, and it was even pitch black above the vast sea.
At this time, an old man in gray robe was using the flying sword to escape at high speed. It was obviously extremely cautious. While flying away, its consciousness was wide open, and it scanned the surroundings from time to time, especially behind it.
"You're quite careful." About dozens of miles away, there was another escaping light flying at a constant speed. It was Mo Juren who had left Miaoyin Island and was chasing after him at top speed.
At this time, he was wearing a strange gray robe, which exuded a dull gray light, shrouding his entire body in it.
This treasure is called the 'Hidden God Robe'. It is an ancient treasure specially used to defend against the detection of divine consciousness. It is also one of relatively good quality among the many ancient treasures in his hand.
Its function is relatively simple, but its defense ability is not low. Even the early Yuanying monks are extremely difficult to detect.
Not long ago, when he was in the secret room, he suddenly sensed that someone was going out secretly. It was one of the two elders of the Miaoyin Sect.
This couldn't help but arouse his interest. At this time, the other party suddenly left the island secretly. What on earth was he planning to do? Or to meet someone?
When he came to Miaoyin Island before, he had explored it more than once on the road. I thought I could find out something, but unfortunately I found nothing.
"Could it be that some kind of formation to mask the aura was arranged in advance?" Mo Juren secretly guessed, but he didn't think much about it and continued to chase. No matter what the reason is, it will surely be revealed soon.
After flying for several hours, it was already late at night.
Finally, when approaching a small and unfamiliar island, the gray-robed old man's escape speed dropped sharply, and then stopped.
He did not enter the island immediately, but once again let go of his spiritual consciousness to explore for a moment. Only when he was sure that there was nothing abnormal, did he look relaxed. Immediately afterwards, a communication talisman suddenly appeared in his hand. After whispering, he threw it out and turned into a stream of fire that shot towards the island.
The strange thing is that when the magic talisman flew halfway, it was blocked by a transparent light curtain that suddenly appeared for a moment, and then disappeared into it.
The old man in gray robe was not surprised by this and waited calmly.
After about a moment, a faint light suddenly lit up in a certain area of the light curtain, and a narrow crack appeared.
Seeing this, the old man in gray robe did not hesitate any longer, and immediately used his flying sword to escape into it, and the crack slowly recovered as before.
Tens of miles away, somewhere over the sea.
Mo Juren, who was flying at high speed, withdrew his consciousness, but there was a trace of surprise in his eyes, and then he pursed his lips and laughed secretly.
Sure enough, as he had expected, the opponent had already ambushed halfway, and even set up a mysterious formation on the island.
The location here is also chosen very well, only about fifty miles away from another 'Purple Pine Island'. And there is the only way from Miaoyin Island to Tianxing City.
After confirming the opponent's position, Mo Juren was naturally overjoyed. In this way, he could make more targeted arrangements.
However, he is now more and more curious, who is the enemy ambushing ahead? Could it be that he is a monk from Jiyin Island just like in the original destiny line?
Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated and immediately increased his speed again, approaching the front at great speed. He operated the God-Hiding Robe to the extreme, and the magic power around him quickly converged to avoid any unexpected situations.
The journey of dozens of miles is not long, and it only takes a moment for a monk in the Dan Formation stage.
However, out of caution, when he was about thirty miles away from the unknown island, he changed direction and submerged under the sea.
During the next journey, he directly used the water escape technique and continued to move forward at a high speed. He did not stop until he was about a hundred feet away from the island.
At this moment, the entire island appeared in his sight. And at such a close distance, the mysterious formation hidden in the dark could not escape his perception.
After letting go of his consciousness and exploring again for a moment, Mo Juren couldn't help but feel secretly happy. Sure enough, the power of this formation has its limits, and it may be able to block the detection of monks in the Danjie stage. However, it is somewhat powerless against the consciousness of the Nascent Soul stage.
Mo Juren's spiritual consciousness was already strong, and after taking a drop of Xuanyin liquid, he also practiced the third level of "Dayan Jue" to the last step. He was no longer weaker than the early Yuanying monks.
After just trying, although the situation inside the island was not completely clear, I could still sense the aura of a lot of monks. There were more than thirty people in total, most of whom were monks in the foundation-building stage, and six of them had reached the elixir-forming stage. .
One of them should be Elder Zhao. However, being able to dispatch five Danjie monks at once shows that the other party attaches great importance to this operation.
After all, the strength of Miaoyin Sect is really not that great. Even though there were more than a dozen monks from other sects who were invited by his disciples to accompany him this time, they were only in the foundation building period.
It would be okay if the two guest elders didn't betray. However, this is obviously not the case. Those two people have turned against each other. By then, whether they are still pretending or directly turning against each other, it will no longer be possible to point out.
In order to get more information more clearly, Mo Juren continued to move forward, and soon approached the island under the sea, and then escaped directly into it.
After all, the range covered by that formation is limited, especially under the island, which can only go deep about three feet.
】
Mo Juren fled for a moment, and when he reached a certain location, he stopped again. He glanced at the transparent light screen not far above, couldn't help but smile, and then explored his consciousness again.
Different from before, the formation at this time could no longer stop his exploration, and everything on the island was under his 'panoramic view'.
"Wu Chou, it is indeed him!" In just a moment, Mo Juren recognized one of them, who was his 'old friend' Wu Chou. It was not difficult to guess the rest of them, and they were all probably the same. The monks in Jiyin Island.
The gray-robed old man and Wu Chou were not far away, and the two sides were constantly communicating at this time. However, all this had been heard clearly by Mo Juren, who was hiding in the dark.
As he heard more and more, Mo Juren suddenly felt a little bored.
Obviously, Wu Chou, as the commander, was extremely confident about this operation, and his words were full of disdain. He was not idle when explaining some specific arrangements to the old man in gray robe, and he kept teasing with the two concubines beside him from time to time.
The old man in gray robe did not dare to be dissatisfied at all. Instead, he listened to the other party's instructions more respectfully, for fear of making any omissions.
"Okay, that's all there is to say. You can go back first. Another thing you must remember clearly is that you two should not reveal your identities during this operation. I will have other arrangements soon."
"By the way, there is one more thing. The hundreds of little beauties on the island have been kept under my watch. After this matter is over, I will pick some of the best and send some over secretly, hehe..."
"Young master, don't worry, my subordinates will definitely make arrangements." The old man in gray robe did not dare to have the slightest objection, and immediately replied respectfully.
"Okay, okay, let's go back, remember to remind you when you set off..." After the business was explained, Wu Chou became a little impatient and waved his hand directly.
"My subordinates, please retire!" The old man in gray robe bowed again, then turned around and left respectfully.
When the old man's figure disappeared, Wu Chou suddenly sneered and said to a black-robed man with a dull look beside him: "This old guy is quite aware of current affairs, and he has made great contributions this time and next time. Give it proper training..."
"Young master, please don't be careless!" The big man in black robe frowned and continued,
"I have done a detailed investigation on this person, and he is definitely not the kind of grateful person. Wang Ying, the master of the Miaoyin Sect, is not bad to the two of them, but he still chooses to betray for the sake of profit without hesitation. This shows that he The nature of a jackal. If the young master really wants to cultivate it, he must have enough control measures to avoid being bitten back one day."
"That's true." Wu Chou nodded and continued,
"As for the control methods, I still need you to remind me. Naturally, I know it well? But right now, I still need to use the other party, so I will put it aside for now. It will not be too late to make up for it later."
"The young master is famous!"
"Hey!" Hearing the compliment, Wu Chou had a look of surprise on his face, and then he hugged the slender waists of the two concubines beside him and said with a smile,
"Look, Tu Gang has learned to flatter people just like everyone else?"
"Young Master, is this a famous name? Senior Tu didn't lie."
"Whether it is qualifications, background, or vision, who in the chaotic sea of stars can compare with the young master?"
The two concubines, one on the left and the other on the right, praised her sweetly one after another, which immediately put Wu Chou in a good mood. Even though I know it's a bit exaggerated, I still feel elated.
"You sisters are so good at talking." Wu Chou hugged the two girls and laughed, making his already ugly face even more ugly. However, the two women did not dislike each other at all. They stayed beside each other and kept acting coquettishly. It was called making out.
"That's right!" Suddenly, Wu Chou suddenly thought of something and turned to look at the big man in black robe again.
"I asked you to investigate the man named Mo before. Is there any progress?"
"This person is indeed something special, or rather mysterious." The big man in black robe said, then took out a jade slip in his hand, handed it to him respectfully,
"Since the young master's instructions, my subordinates have been paying attention to this person, and all the information related to him is in the jade slips."
"Oh?" Wu Chou was obviously interested, and he immediately took the jade slip and began to examine it. In just a moment, his originally calm expression suddenly turned as gloomy as water.
"Is your conclusion accurate?"
"90% sure." The big man in black robe solemnly nodded and continued,
"At the beginning, my subordinates did not pay too much attention to this person, and just wanted to get to know him briefly. I never thought that he had extremely terrifying qualifications, and his cultivation could be described as a thousand miles. It is not just cultivation. His speed and talent in making talismans are also extremely amazing. The new style of talismans that suddenly appeared in the inner sea in recent years was made by this person."
"Did he refine the spiritual talisman?" Wu Chou couldn't help but be a little surprised. The brand-new spiritual talisman was indeed of extremely high quality and even more powerful. Even he had a lot of it in his storage bag.
"It's absolutely true!" Hei Pao nodded seriously and continued,
"It is precisely because of this that my subordinate became interested in this life, and conducted a detailed investigation in the following time. Although he acted extremely low-key, he still left a lot of information in Tianxing City.
Through analysis, I can basically confirm that this person is the strange monk who offended you at Fengle Auction House in the past..."
…
"Sure enough, it was still exposed!" Mo Juren couldn't help but sigh. He didn't expect that the problem actually lay in the 'Taiyuan Pavilion'. Although I was disguised at the time, my changed appearance was still recorded by the other party. Later, I purchased Snow Spirit Water, Sky Fire Liquid, Tianyun Pill and many other resources needed to break through the pill formation stage in this pavilion. .
Although the monk he was following was successfully thrown away by him, during the subsequent investigation, he learned about this situation from Taiyuan Pavilion by chance.
Just such a few clues can be used to infer enough useful information. At least one thing can be determined, that is, the buyer has most likely reached the realm of fake elixirs and is ready to form elixirs.
Following this clue and continuing to infer, there must be two situations. One is that the buyer leaves Tianxing City and forms elixirs outside, and the other is that the buyer stays in Tianxing City. The place of breakthrough must be at the Holy Mountain.
The outside is vast and boundless, so it is naturally impossible to investigate, but the Holy Mountain is different. In the next period of time, the number of monks who will break through the pill formation is very high, and it can be easily grasped.
As for whether it is the target we are looking for, it is not important to Jiyin Island. As long as there is enough suspicion, we can directly take action.
It was at that time that the other party's investigation suddenly went awry.
A monk whose appearance and figure were almost exactly the same as Mo Juren who was in disguise at that time appeared outside Tianxing City and happened to be seen by the monks from Jiyin Island.
One can imagine what happened next. After having a clear target, Wu Chou immediately sent his men to hunt him down. Unfortunately, that man was extremely powerful and escaped without a trace in the end.
Mo Juren knew very well that all of this was Ling Yuling's handiwork. It was she who led Jiyin Island astray and prevented his information from being exposed.
Unexpectedly, after many years, the big man in black robe once again sorted out the previous information, and finally noticed his head.
It has to be said that this person's intelligence is truly extraordinary, and his reasoning and analysis abilities are even more terrifying. If it hadn't been for the repeated interference from Ling Yuling in the following time, I'm afraid he would have succeeded long ago.
He was not too flustered by this result. In fact, he had already been mentally prepared after Ling Yuling specially reminded him last time.
Even if the extremely yin old monster comes in person, he is not afraid.
One thing is certain, for these people in front of him, the murderous intention in his heart is getting stronger and stronger.
Now that it has been exposed, it will have to be faced sooner or later. As the saying goes, strike first to gain strength, let the old monster of Jiyin suffer first.
Putting away his thoughts, he turned to look in the direction where the gray-robed old man had left, and sneered again in his heart.
"These two people are stupid enough to choose to join a force like Jiyin Island. They probably think that as monks in the alchemy stage, they will have greater development prospects by joining the past. Unfortunately, they are just two chess pieces after all.
Of course, the two of them may not have thought of this, or they may have been mentally prepared. However, facing Jiyin Island's "wooing", he didn't have the courage to refuse. "
He was not surprised by this. In the world of cultivation, strength must speak for itself. Otherwise, even if you know the danger, you still can't help yourself.
After continuing to inquire for a while, he did not stay any longer, but left quietly. From beginning to end, Wu Chou and others inside the formation were not aware of it at all.
