Chapter 286: This is...an evil formation?
Listening to Lu Feng's words, Bai Bing suddenly remembered the moving stones along the wall before and hurriedly said: "Could it be related to those stones? The end of the stones... No, it's too far away and it's too dark to see clearly. .”
Lu Feng's eyes condensed and he looked into the distance. Purple light appeared in his eyes again. He took out the Netherworld Bow and got ready to go.
"What is Lu Qian doing?" Bai Bing saw Lu Qian suddenly moving and couldn't help but said in shock: "Is this the unique skill he practiced? Why haven't I heard that the Dujing Formation Association has this skill? Is this what those people do? Did you die because of your famous stunt?"
Lu Qian was surrounded by seven cone-shaped air blades formed by condensed cyclones. They were pointed directly at the weak spots on his body. Depending on the situation, they would plunge into them in an instant.
"Found it," Lu Feng released his right hand and shot the arrow out at the critical moment.
The arrow feathers instantly sank into a wall in the distance, and then bursts of "click, click, click..." noises of the machine being stuck came from the wall, and the stones along the walls on both sides began to collide.
The black fog around Lu Qian began to recede, and he gradually regained his consciousness from the chaos. After noticing the air blades beside him, he shivered with fear and dispersed the air blades in panic.
This is a set of skills he has practiced, and it is also the most lethal one. Being stabbed by an air cone like this, his current defense will definitely not be able to withstand it.
Lu Feng was relieved when he saw that Lu Qian was fine, "Fortunately, those machine-type mechanisms were in disrepair and their strength has lost, otherwise it would be difficult to break open today."
"Thank you, Brother Lu, for saving me," Lu Qian clasped his fists gratefully, then looked back at the arrow feathers that were mostly embedded in the wall and wondered what he was thinking.
Bai Bing walked to Lu Qian's side and reminded: "Check quickly to see if you have lost anything? Just now I saw you took out a lot of things from the luggage, and they were all swallowed up by the black mist."
Lu Qian looked at his bracelet, and then said with a sad face, "I understand why those people are so poor. I'm probably even worse than them now. All the valuables are gone. Alas, it's such a pity. It’s an earth soul-level treasure, without it, the road ahead will be difficult.”
Bai Bing was shocked and confused, "You actually have an Earth Soul-level treasure?"
Lu Feng's expression also showed some emotion. It would be fine if it were an Earth Soul-level Horcrux, but treasure weapons are different from Horcruxes. Although most Horcruxes are stronger than treasure weapons, in terms of functionality, treasure weapons are better than treasure weapons. Tools are obviously better.
Just like a long sword and soul weapon of the earth soul level, the person who holds it can increase his strength by at least 30 to 40%, but if the long sword is successfully engraved with various patterns, inlaid with various gems, and turned into a treasure In the end, although it still only improves so much strength, its fighting style can undergo huge changes.
Take Lu Feng now as an example. He has the strength of the Five Elements and One Qi Realm and only has the Golden Qi in his body. When facing earth-attributed soul beasts or soul masters who major in earth-attributed Qi, he does not have much advantage. If he can have wood-attributed treasures, With the weapon close to his body, he can use the metal energy and at the same time add a trace of wood energy. Wood can overcome earth, and the advantage will be greatly improved. This is the effect of the treasure weapon.
Lu Qian looked at Lu Feng and asked, "Did I accidentally enter the illusory formation just now? The black mist seems to be quite similar to the Shadow Killer Beast."
Lu Feng explained: "If it were the Shadow Killer Beast, I'm afraid you would be dead right now. Those are just the qi excreted by the Shadow Killer Beast, which were used by others to form an illusory array." Lu Qian suddenly said: "I've heard about the Shadow Killer Beast for a long time. The shadow beast's energy has the ability to confuse the mind and disturb the soul. I didn't expect it to be so terrifying after being arranged into a formation."
Lu Feng explained: "This formation itself was supposed to be used for sacrifices in remote places, so that the reluctant believers could sacrifice themselves willingly. After being infused with the shadow-killing beast's energy, it evolved into a wealth-gathering treasure formation. Let you willingly and unknowingly give away your treasures one by one."
Lu Qian pouted and looked around, "I wonder where the stolen treasures have gone."
Lu Feng thought for a while and guessed: "Since it is the Shadow Killer Beast's Qi, it is very likely to be related to the Shadow Killer Beast's lair. Finding there may not only be able to recover the Earth Soul level treasure you lost, but also maybe The treasures that have been confiscated over the years are all there."
"But what should I do if I encounter a Shadow Killer Beast?" Lu Qian worriedly asked. Without the treasure card as a trump card, he had no confidence in dealing with the Shadow Killer Beast.
"Don't stay too far away from me. I have a way to deal with it," Lu Feng explained: "The shadow-killing beast is afraid of sunlight. Although the sunlight cannot penetrate here, it can be replaced by other objects, such as the Flame Crystal."
Yanyang Crystal is a kind of crystal stone born naturally from heaven and earth. As a formation material, its value is not expensive and can only be regarded as a medium material. However, it contains the essence of the sun that other jade stones do not have. Although the content is not enough to kill the Shadow Killer Beast, there is no problem in forming a protective barrier to protect itself.
"Hearing what you said, I suddenly felt relieved," Bai Bing looked visibly relaxed.
Lu Qian also calmed down a lot, "Then... shall we continue walking?"
The two women looked at Lu Feng and signaled him to take the lead.
Lu Feng looked at the dark corridor in front of him, and while holding the lighting crystal, he took out a few pieces of jade.
Although Lu Feng has only learned half of the Yanxing Jue, and the actual combat effect is very average, it is just right to use it to explore the path at this moment. He controls the pieces of jade to slap against the wall or stick to the ground, and the spiritual power fluctuations contained in each place are All the mechanisms were detected.
"咻咻咻... bang bang bang..."
Seeing the various arrows and spears that suddenly appeared in front of them, Bai Bing and Lu Qian all froze on the spot. If it weren't for the jade pieces controlled by Lu Feng who took the lead and activated these poisonous weapons, at this moment I'm afraid they have been turned into hedgehogs.
Carefully bypassing the arrows and spears on the ground, Lu Feng suddenly said: "It's a bit cold ahead, be careful, the Shadow Killer Beast is very likely nearby."
As he spoke, he took out the Flame Sun Crystal and held it in his hand.
Threads of black mist clung to the wall and rushed toward them, but before they could gather together, they were frightened away by the Flame Crystal in Lu Feng's hand, and they fled back along the original path in despair.
Lu Feng originally wanted to follow the Shadow Killer Beast back to its lair, but the latter was too fast. Considering how many dangers were hidden here, he had to give up temporarily.
"We have to hurry up, I'm afraid there will be more danger if we delay it until night," Lu Feng said. Night is when the essence of the sun is at its weakest, and it is also when the shadow-killing beast's combat power is at its strongest. The lines on the foundation previously verified this. at this point.
"There seems to be some movement ahead?" Lu Qian frowned.
Lu Feng said solemnly: "I heard it too, it seemed like someone was screaming miserably."
The three of them walked forward cautiously and came to a fork.
"It seems to be Lanyin and the others?" Bai Bing said with a hint of wonder, "Didn't they go in another direction? How come they appear in front?"
Lu Qian suddenly realized: "I understand. This corridor is a circular path. No matter whether you go left or right, it is always going in a circle, and you will eventually come to the gap in front, which is the fork we see now."
Lu Feng agreed with Lu Qian's view, "Those people left a lot earlier than us. If they are still staying there, they must be in trouble. Let's go and have a look."
The three of them looked at the crowd gathered in front of them. They saw that it was much smaller than the number of people who had gone to the secret realm before. They all had expectations in their hearts. They had sacrificed a lot along the way.
Lan Yin saw Lu Feng and the others approaching, took a few steps forward, his face flushed a little, and said excitedly, "That's great, you are all still alive."
Lu Feng glanced at the remaining people, "What danger did you encounter?"
Lan Yin still had some fear in his heart, "If Lan Gu hadn't been in charge, I would have died." Lan Yin coughed twice as he spoke, with a faint trace of blood on the corner of his mouth. "This place is a hundred times more dangerous than we expected. Not only is there terrible poison, Fog, and man-eating beasts.”
"Qiao Xuan, he..." Lan Yin said as he suddenly noticed that Qiao Xuan was no longer beside Lu Feng. His face instantly turned pale, and his tone was full of worry.
Lu Feng hurriedly said: "Mr. Qiao did not go deep and stayed above to take care of the situation."
"Huh~ That's good," Lan Yin took a long breath, "I don't know if I will have a chance to see him again and discuss with him again."
"Did everyone encounter something while staying here?" Bai Bing asked curiously. Although he saw a red light not far away, he didn't know what it was.
Lan Yin explained: "This place is really weird. We all made sacrifices along the way. We no longer have the capital to be careless. There is a vicious formation at the fork in front. As soon as the soul master steps in, within a moment, all the spiritual power in his body, blood, Then it will be drained and turned into a mummy, and the wrinkled skin is terrifying to look at."
"Ah~"
A miserable cry came, and Lu Feng turned around and saw a soul master holding a floodlight treasure weapon shouting in a red light. Because of the treasure weapon, the soul master could resist the red light at first. But he didn't hold on for a moment. The treasure's light gradually turned red and was assimilated and absorbed by the red light. Finally, it turned into a piece of scrap metal and fell to the ground. The soul master could no longer hold on. He was covered in red light and his spiritual energy was scattered all over his body. After leaving the body, the blood was instantly evaporated and sucked up, and finally fell dry to the ground.
"Is this...an evil formation?" Lu Feng looked stunned.
"What? You said that red light is an evil formation?" Lan Yin was surprised with a hint of joy, "Do you know how to break it?"
The conversation between Lan Yin and Lu Feng attracted everyone's attention. Among them, a sturdy middle-aged man wearing a tiger skin cloak and a coat jumped over. After looking around, he shouted: "Since you saw that formation, Mingtang, please go and untie it quickly, otherwise none of us will be able to get through."
"I can't explain it," Lu Feng looked at the man. He felt a hint of the aura of a wild beast from the man. Perhaps it was because of the tiger fur coat on his body, or perhaps because the man lived with wild beasts all year round.
A trace of displeasure flashed across the man's face.
Upon seeing this, Lan Yin hurriedly said: "Little friend Lu Feng, let me introduce to you. This is the master of Xingluan Hall of the Beast Control Manor, and he is also one of the best beast control masters."
