Chapter 2192 Pounce

A vast jungle grows on the vast water surface. The heart lake is so deep that you can’t see the bottom. The trees in the jungle can actually take root at the bottom of the lake, emerging from the water to form a green island.

This place was originally the nest of ferocious birds. The ferocious birds had been entrenched here for tens of thousands of years. Many alien monks would choose to avoid it when passing by here. No one could get rid of this group of ferocious birds.

However, the jungle was dead silent at this time, and the group of ferocious birds had disappeared, but there were still traces of their activities in the forest.

'rustle……'

Mist flowed through the woods, the leaves swayed gently, and at the edge of the jungle, a figure appeared on a treetop.

This person was sitting cross-legged on the treetop, as light as a swallow. He swayed with the tree. If you looked closely, you could see that his body seemed to be connected to the tree trunk, with his lower body and the trunk indistinguishable from each other.

He faced the lake with his eyes closed, as if he was sensing something.

Suddenly, his eyelids trembled slightly, and then the skin on his body quickly turned gray, and in an instant became like old bark that had lost water. Finally, his whole body turned into a withered old vine and hung down.

A voice echoed from deep in the jungle.

"Elder Yuan's information is correct. That Master Qin is indeed here, and was sent in by Hong Tian..."

Soon another voice sounded, asking, "Has Elder Yuan arrived?"

"Elder Yuan was detained by that old man Yuan Xiang, and Yuan Ren was sent in. They wouldn't have noticed anything, right? However, those reckless men of the Zhuyan clan really don't like to use formation restrictions," said the first voice.

Another voice asked solemnly: "The man surnamed Qin is with Yuan Ren?"

"No, the man surnamed Qin brought in a female Taoist priest. Hongtian asked for two people to form a group. He went with the female Taoist priest, and Yuan Ren went another way. By the way, the female Taoist priest's cultivation seems to be only in the initial stage of refining emptiness. There are many masters there, and I dare not use my magic power at full power. I wonder if she has hidden her cultivation level."

"In the early stage of refining emptiness, Master Qin brought her with him. It seems that this pair of adulterers have a close relationship!" A third voice interrupted and said excitedly, "Why not try to capture the female cultivator first and threaten Master Qin to surrender!"

"inappropriate!"

The owner of the second voice interrupted quickly, "Qin is ruthless. What if he is selfish and doesn't care about the lives of his companions? Wouldn't that give him a chance to escape? Elder Yuan couldn't get in, so we can only rely on you two brothers!"

"No problem! No problem! Back then, I almost failed. Thanks to you, I asked your ancestor for that whale bone bead. Your senior brother is also my brother! However, no one expected that you, Shi, would die outside after listening to the ancestor's teachings for many years, and was killed by an outsider."

The first voice sighed.

“It’s all because senior brother was too arrogant and underestimated the common people outside the holy land,” the second voice lamented. He was obviously the fairy boy who was chasing Qin Sang.

Although Yuan Jian was blocked, he still had no shortage of helpers. The holy land saw strange changes, and some of those who were brought into the holy land by the ancestor were driven down the mountain with tasks assigned by the ancestor himself.

Because of this, although Hongtian and the other two acted wildly, they did not force them out of Xinhu.

"As expected, Hongtian and the other two have strict restrictions on these people. This is the route chosen by Master Qin. Unless he is not afraid of being punished by Hongtian, he will definitely not dare to deviate too far." The first voice paused, "Brother, have you decided where to ambush them?"

"Humph! After receiving the message from Elder Yuan, I searched around the Heart Lake. There happens to be a secret place in the direction this person is heading, which is suitable for setting up the Mystic God Nine Hua Formation. Let's go there without further delay!"

The fairy boy gritted his teeth, and also felt a little relieved that his revenge was about to be achieved.

Hearing this, the third voice could not help but wonder, "What? They are actually setting up the Mysterious God Nine Hua Formation! Isn't Qin Zhenren's cultivation only at the middle stage of the Refining Void Realm? He relied on an altar formation before? He couldn't possibly bring the altar formation in, so why is he being so cautious?"

"This man massacred the people of the Siyou clan, but was treated as a guest of honor by the Si Huang and the Young Master. They spared no expense to ask him for help. This cannot be judged by common sense. Moreover, this man is best at the art of thunder escape, and his escape speed is said to be rarely matched. If Elder Yuan is not exaggerating, Brother Qi's escape technique is three points inferior," the fairy boy said in a serious tone.

It is difficult to kill a cultivator of the Void Refinement Realm, and even more difficult to kill a cultivator of the Void Refinement Realm who is good at escaping quickly. This is recognized in the world of immortal cultivation. The opponent must be firmly restricted. Once a flaw appears, the opponent may break through the blockade and all efforts will be in vain.

In order to deal with Qin Sang, Xian Tong had prepared more than one method. However, if Qin Sang could be led into the Xuanshen Jiuhua Formation, it would be the easiest and safest.

"Oh? In that case, I'd like to see how advanced your Thunder Escape Technique is," the first voice smiled indifferently.

A breeze blew by, dispelling all the sounds, and the jungle returned to its original state.

……

Not long after, above the water surface, the void twisted and three blurry figures, two tall and one short, emerged.

The short man looks like a child, and he is the fairy boy.

The fairy boy pointed his finger downward and said, "It's right here!"

The two looked down at the water and were surprised to find that the water was actually a golden red color. More than ten feet below the water surface, the lake water turned into magma and flowed under the water.

The range of this magma is very wide. The strange thing is that there is not the slightest sense of heat here. The lake water is above the magma and will not be affected.

"The secret realm is below, and it can conceal the aura of the Mysterious God Nine Hua Formation. If they happen to pass by from above, we will attack them immediately. Otherwise, we can also design a plan to lure them over..."

After the fairy boy finished speaking, his figure fell rapidly into the water.

After a while, the magma splashed a bunch of "water", and the fairy boy escaped into the secret realm, followed by the other two. After entering the magma, they felt that the environment suddenly changed, and a sense of scorching heat was everywhere. With their cultivation, they felt that the heat was unbearable.

After the strange change happened in the Heart Lake, the secret realm and the ruins in the lake changed more or less. Most of it became more chaotic, but at the same time, the forbidden formation inside was also damaged, and it did not take much effort to slowly crack it.

The fairy boy had been here before, and moved around in it with familiarity. He stopped somewhere in the secret realm, then activated his mental spell and summoned his companion beast.

Each companion beast held a piece of jade in its mouth and ran in all directions. Then the fairy boy sat cross-legged on the ground, took out one exquisite formation tool after another, handed them to his two companions, and worked together to set up the formation.

Ripples appeared on the surface of the magma, and then gradually calmed down without any abnormality.

At the same time, Yuan Ren and his companions were rushing towards here.

"Brother Yuan Ren, I remember that the foggy place was an ancient ruins. Over the years, countless predecessors have come here one after another. It is said that the true teachings inside have not been obtained by anyone yet. Why don't you go in and take a look?"

Yuan Ren's companions were in deep distress at this moment.

He thought that following Yuan Ren would mean he had a strong backer, but he didn't expect the reality to be completely different from what he imagined.

It is obvious that the deeper you go into the Heart Lake, the more dangerous it is. Lord Hongtian gave them the jade bracelets, but it is impossible to keep an eye on everyone. It is better to stay outside for a few more days and have a reasonable explanation in the end. Maybe you can get some opportunities.

Given Yuan Ren's status, Lord Hong Tian would surely not blame them.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Ren seemed to be energized and rushed forward.

"No! No!"

Yuan Ren shook his head repeatedly, "What kind of maze is this? I don't like it!"

The companions were angry and helpless. They did not dare to leave alone and could only try their best to catch up with Yuan Ren's speed.

……

"Come so fast!"

In the secret realm, the three immortal children vaguely sensed the fluctuations in the distance and couldn't help but secretly rejoice.

They didn't expect the opponent to be so fast. They had just set up the spiritual formation and almost missed the opportunity.

‘Whoosh! Whoosh! ’

Two beams of light broke through the spiritual mist and came closer and closer. Judging from the direction they were heading, they would definitely fly through this secret realm.

The three of them were secretly delighted and were about to activate the formation when they finally sensed the breath coming from the escaping light and were stunned.

"Why is it them!"

The fairy boy's face changed drastically.

They took great pains to set up a large formation, thinking that the enemy would fall into the net, but what they got was Yuan Ren. How could they not be angry?

The black-robed monk sitting cross-legged on the left side of the fairy boy looked calm, his eyes flashed, and he said, "Brother, please be patient. I did see them take this road with my own eyes. Now it seems that they should have changed their route later."

"It seems that Master Qin has already been alerted. It may not be easy to ambush and kill him later. We can only surround and kill him openly," said a man in green clothes on the right of the fairy boy with a frown.

"not necessarily!"

The black-robed monk shook his head slightly, as if remembering something. "Before, when the ancestor was playing chess with others, I was serving tea beside him and heard some secrets. It seems that our clan's holy land has some connection with the human race's Taoism. Therefore, every time the holy land is opened, some Taoist monks will be sent in. They seem to be looking for something, and their target is a secret place in the heart lake. This time, I did see a few human cultivators, all of whom are from the Taoism. Elder Yuan also said that Master Qin has some background, which is why he is so valued by the Zhuyan clan..."

"Oh? There is such a secret. How could our holy land be related to the Taoist sect of the human race?" The man in green shirt was puzzled. "Brother Qi, do you mean that they switched routes with Yuan Ren because they wanted to go to that secret place?"

The man in black robe frowned slightly, unsure.

At this moment, the man in green shirt exclaimed, "Why did he stop?"

They looked outside the secret realm, only to see the leading light coming to the edge of the secret realm and suddenly stopping. Yuan Ren appeared, staring at the secret realm below with a burning gaze.

The three of them couldn't help but feel nervous. They had no grudges against Yuan Ren, so they would not launch a large formation to offend the Zhuyan tribe. This place was still considered the outer periphery of the Heart Lake, and their actions could not be done without anyone noticing. Even if Hongtian could not monitor the entire secret realm, some clues could not be hidden from him. Once the Zhuyan tribe was angered, Hongtian would not cover up for them.

Moreover, Yuan Ren was not so easy to kill. After a fierce fight, the real enemy might have entered the depths of the Heart Lake. The depths of the Heart Lake were far more dangerous than the outside. There were too many variables to besiege Qin Sang there. If Qin Sang saw that the situation was not good and went into a secret place, he might escape.

"Brother Yuan Ren?"

When his companions caught up with him and saw that Yuan Ren had stopped moving forward, they thought that Yuan Ren had finally figured it out and were secretly delighted.

"I don't know why, but I just don't like this magma! I want to give it a stick!" Yuan Ren scratched the back of his head, his eyes a little confused. It was his intuition that was playing tricks on him, and the Zhuyan clan's combat intuition was much sharper than that of ordinary people.

Yuan Ren was too lazy to find out the reason, so he flipped his hand and swung the purple gold stick.

'boom! ’

The long stick broke through the lake water and smashed into the lava.

The magma sank deeply, and a long gully appeared on the surface, which could not be closed for a long time.

The restrictions in the secret realm were quite strong and could not be broken through by the stick. However, Yuan Ren felt better after venting his anger. He put away his long stick and continued to fly forward, leaving his companions puzzled.

Shortly after they left, three embarrassed figures flew out of the lava.

"Bah bah bah...this monkey!"

Black smoke came out of the green-shirted man's mouth. Fortunately, the robes he was wearing were of high quality, otherwise he would have been burned to ashes.

They were afraid of exposing their tracks and getting into trouble, so they did not dare to activate the large formation to resist. They could only withstand the impact of the secret realm on their own. Fortunately, no one was injured.

The black-robed monk sighed, "Forget it. The Zhuyan clan is reckless and reckless! We have wasted too much time here and must hurry over as soon as possible, otherwise we can only wait for them to come out before taking action."

"Just let him live a little longer," the fairy boy said coldly.

The next moment, the three people disappeared from the spot.

……

The spiritual fog was so thick that Qin Sang could only see places more than ten miles away when he activated his divine power of heavenly eyes.

"I wonder if Yuan Ren met the fairy boy?" This thought flashed through Qin Sang's mind.

If the fairy boy had been keeping an eye on him, he would definitely set an ambush along the way. As for whether this plan could deceive the other party, Qin Sang was not sure.

It was not that he wanted Yuan Ren to take the blame for him. He had reminded Yuan Ren of this before he left, and the other party should not dare to attack Yuan Ren. Qin Sang's purpose was to delay time so that he could make some arrangements.

The success of this plan was still fifty-fifty, and Qin Sang was prepared for the other party to see through it.

The biggest variable now is how many helpers Xiantong can find besides Yuan Jian.

If the enemy is too strong, he will not fight it head-on, but will immediately return and cry to Lord Hongtian, saying that it is not that he does not want to help, but that he is being stopped.

Otherwise, the root of the problem will naturally be eliminated!

This move is undoubtedly risky and they must be cautious.

"Fellow Daoist Qin chose this route. Is there a secret realm that we can use?" Liuli saw through Qin Sang's plan, but did not know the whole picture yet.

Qin Sang nodded. "Both feng shui maps record a special secret place that I can use. I hope that secret place has not been destroyed. If we can get there smoothly, I can make some arrangements in advance. When we meet them, I can show weakness to the enemy and lure them into the trap..."

As he was speaking, Qin Sang paused and looked up to the left.

I saw a mountain peak emerging from the water. The mountain was steep and rugged, as if cut by a knife. There were no ordinary plants on the top of the mountain, only aquatic plants that should have lived under the water.

There is no record of this mountain in feng shui, and it obviously grew out of the water.

"There is the breath of life on the top of the mountain. It's still alive!" Liuli said.

The two figures flashed and successfully reached the top of the mountain, where they saw a monster with a duck beak. It was a ferocious beast with a strong aura, comparable to that of a Void Refining cultivator.

The ferocious beast was lying on the stone slab, soundly sleeping, completely unaware of the approaching outsiders.

Qin Sang and Liuli looked at each other with serious expressions. It seemed that what Hong Yue said was true.
