After only twelve breaths, no monsters in the white mist shrouded the area survived.
Except for Jing Yingrong who still stayed in place to kill the monsters that were pouring in one after another, the other four people all withdrew in time, leaving the place to the formation masters of Zuimeng Peak.
When retreating, Wu Yaochen set a fire and burned the corpses of monsters everywhere, thus cleaning up the place.
Zuimeng Peak Formation Master entered the fog lock. Each person holds a wine jar in his arms. After the wine jar is opened, the fragrance of the wine, which may be refreshing, mellow, or elegant, spreads out, and different illusions appear faintly above the mouth of the jar.
Jing Yingrong saw a little curiosity in her eyes when she saw them setting up formations using wine as a medium.
Ninety breaths away, the formation master finally completed the formation. One of them came over to inform Jing Yingrong, and Jing Yingrong came out of the white mist with them and joined the others.
When the fog dissipated, what was originally a mountainous area turned into a vast lake with no edges visible. The sparkling water of the lake breaks up the skylight and cloud shadows, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.
Facing this lake that appeared out of thin air, many monster beasts behind them were at a loss for a while, and then, several monster birds tentatively flew over the lake.
The figures of these demonic birds gradually faded away from countless sights until they disappeared, but soon reappeared. They flew up and down, swaying from side to side, just like a person in a state of confusion. When they reached the shore, they fell to the ground exhausted, but fell asleep.
There was a hint of commotion in the herd, and then, a level three monster, a frozen-blooded toad, jumped out of the herd and jumped into the lake.
The frozen-blooded toad jumped forward in the water, rising and falling dozens of feet away, and soon it was far away from the herd on the shore. It continued to jump, and all it could see was the infinite color of the water. It felt a little dizzy without realizing it, and just kept jumping forward. For some reason, it actually saw the previous herd of animals again.
However, it had no time to think about it at this moment. After jumping ashore and returning to its companions, it fell asleep.
The commotion among the beasts became even worse, and a few bold monster beasts went down to the lake to swim in the water, but all of them turned back inexplicably.
The beast herd without the leader of the high-level demonic beast suddenly felt fearful, and they all moved away from the lake, shunned by this strange lake.
Low-level monsters have limited intelligence. When faced with such situations, they will instinctively seek safety and avoid danger unless necessary. For the vast majority of them, there is nothing particularly attractive to them in front of them. They just inadvertently became part of this small branch of the beast tide. It can be said that they blindly follow their companions and have no choice but to move forward. reasons.
Therefore, under such circumstances, many monsters retreated.
One by one, the monsters turned around and returned. Except for a few who still tried to cross the lake and stayed in place to watch, most of the monsters chose to return along the original path.
The monsters at the back who had no idea what was going on saw the monsters returning from the front. Although they were confused, they followed them as if they had followed them in a daze.
As for the monster beast that was already walking in front, it didn't notice the changes behind it at all. Only the group at the end of the team found that there was nothing behind them and no companions were following them. They were a little confused at best.
The two teams, Taichuguan and Zuimengfeng, who witnessed all this, breathed a sigh of relief.
Shu Pinghui: "In this way, the total number of monsters attacking Fenglang County will not increase. By the way, that lake is an illusion created by the formation, right?"
Ran Kui was about to answer when he suddenly heard a voice full of doubts: "Which lake?"
Everyone looked at the person who asked the question.
Jing Yingrong looked back at them blankly.
Shu Pinghui said in surprise: "Rong Rong, can't you see that it turned into a lake? It's a very big lake."
Jing Yingrong shook her head.
Shu Pinghui: "Then...what do those swimming monsters do in your eyes?"
Jing Yingrong: "Climbing."
Shu Pinghui: "..."
Jing Yingrong: "I only saw them turning in circles in the mountains and finally turning back to the starting point."
Shu Pinghui: "...Eh?"
Ran Kui coughed lightly, attracting everyone's attention to himself, and said: "This formation is not perfect yet. If it exceeds a certain level of cultivation, it will be automatically seen through, which is equivalent to treating it as nothing. For example, Fellow Daoist Yu cannot see it even if he thinks about it. To that lake.”
Yu Xian, who had lowered his head since Jing Yingrong opened his mouth and rested his forehead on his hand as if he had a headache, said dullly: "Yes."
Ran Kui looked at Jing Yingrong, who only had Nascent Soul cultivation level on his face.
"Fellow Taoist Mirror..."
He hesitated to speak and looked at the other people on Taichuguan's side.
Yu Xian raised his head and was about to help Jing Yingrong find compensation when he heard four different voices saying:
"She was kidding me."
"She has practiced the secret eye technique."
"She was born with a special constitution."
"She's talking nonsense."
Yu Xian: "..."
Yu Xian's head hurt even more.
Ran Kui, the direct disciple of Zuimeng Peak, was no fool. He had already figured out what was going on. He laughed and said, "I see." Then he decisively changed the subject: "Fellow Daoist Yu, to guard against monsters. The detours and high-level monsters are coming, and we will stay here to perfect and expand the formation. I will help you with supporting Fenglang County."
Yu Xian was happy to get down the steps and said: "Then we will take a step forward. You should be more careful."
The two teams parted ways. Ran Kui took the people to work in the formation, while Yu Xian and others chased in the direction of the movement of the beasts in front.
Not long after, they caught up with the severed tail end of the mighty beast herd, but they did not take action immediately, but rushed on faster than the beast tide.
"Generally speaking, the formation of this kind of beast tide branch must be led by at least one or two high-level monsters. The news that Head Fan gave me is that an eighth-level and a ninth-level monster appeared in Fenglang County , This is reasonable. But I see the traces of the beast tide raging in the territories under the jurisdiction of those two sects, and I kind of suspect it is more than that."
Yu Xian casually released a bolt of lightning, killing a level six demon bird flying in front of them into ashes, and said this at the same time.
Huo Xiumao: "So, Senior Sister Yu, you mean to go behind the beast tide in Fenglang County to observe the situation first, see if there are any high-level monsters hiding, and then formulate a battle plan?"
Yu Xian: "That's what it means to me."
Wu Yaochen: "Will there be a level ten monster?"
"No," Yu Xian said without hesitation, "Zuimeng Peak's high-end combat power in Fenglang County only has one Return to the Void and four Transformation Gods. If there really were tenth-level monsters, they would have finished playing long ago. How could they have persisted for so long? .”
Wu Yaochen was stunned: "The four transformed gods cannot gain the upper hand once they return to the void?"
Yu Xian glanced at him: "Brother Wizard, do you think you are our sect's cultivator of returning to the void and transforming into gods?"
Wu Yaochen: "..."
