Chapter 273 Trapped

However, after the great earthquake, the lightning array showed no signs of collapse.

On the contrary, the array, which was like an inverted green bowl, roared like an enraged beast.

"Zila la"

A series of lightning burst out from the array, turning into several green lightning whips, whipping Yuan Ming and the other two in the depression.

Yuan Ming quickly took out the Cold Star Sword and waved it to resist.

Elder Lu Shen pressed the ground with both hands, and when he stood up again, three earth walls rose from the ground to surround his body, blocking the lightning whip.

Bai Ye also sacrificed a golden long sword, lingering around his body to resist.

After a round of lightning whips, the lightning stabilized again.

"Elder Lu Shen, how are you, are you okay?" He Wendao shouted outside with an anxious tone, his vision blocked by the fierce lightning.

"It's just a trap array, it can be broken at will." Lu Shen and Yuan Ming Bai Ye looked at each other and snorted coldly.

"Daoyou Bai Ye, can you see the roots of this magic array?" Yuan Ming approached Bai Ye and asked.

"I don't know. It seems that it is not easy to break it. You just said that there is something wrong with He Wendao?" Bai Ye shook his head and replied in a low voice.

"His performance when facing the second-level monster before, and his ability to exit the trap in time, are very abnormal." Yuan Ming said.

Bai Ye's face became more complicated when he heard this.

While the two were whispering, Lu Shen had taken out a vajra as thick as a child's arm. The whole body was dark yellow, and the surface was covered with a layer of yellow halo.

He was seen holding the vajra with both hands, and the magic power in his palms rolled into it. The originally dim vajra suddenly became bright, and a powerful earth-attributed magic wave suddenly surged out of it.

"Break!"

Lu Shen shouted, holding the vajra with both hands, and smashed it heavily on the ground.

The vajra fell to the ground with a bang, and a more magnificent earth-yellow light burst out from it, triggering the power of mountain collapse, trying to destroy the magic array underground.

With Lu Shen as the center, the surrounding ground was hit by this force, and the soil and rocks suddenly cracked, and smoke and dust rose.

Yuan Ming and Bai Ye were also affected, and they all used magic tools to resist.

In the rolling smoke and dust, there was no intact land in the entire range of the magic circle, and the ground seemed to have been turned over by a plow.

However, outside the magic circle, there was no impact at all.

Before the smoke and dust completely dissipated, thunder roared again, and lightning pillars as thick as bowls suddenly shot in from all around. The blazing electric light even dispersed all the smoke and dust, and bombarded Yuan Ming and the other two.

"Be careful." Yuan Ming hurriedly reminded.

While speaking, he raised his hand and waved it violently, and a black inkstone flew out immediately, quickly growing and hanging above his head, blocking the falling lightning pillar for him.

After Bai Ye blocked the first lightning column, he was hit by the second lightning column that followed closely. His body was directly shaken and fell out. Half of his body was charred and smoke rose. He was obviously injured.

Elder Lu Shen sacrificed a bright round mirror. Although it blocked the bombardment of the lightning column, the mirror surface was also severely damaged and was already half useless.

The attacked formation not only showed no signs of damage, but the lightning on it became more and more dense.

"Elder Lu Shen, how are you?" He Wendao's anxious voice came from outside.

"Strange, I used the top-grade magic weapon Fudichu to attack with all my strength, but I couldn't destroy it." Elder Lu Shen said after a moment of hesitation.

"Maybe Elder Lu's Fudichu is not worthy of its name. Why don't you three work together to break it in one fell swoop." He Wendao outside heard this and offered suggestions to the three people.

Elder Lu Shen heard this and looked at Yuan Ming and Bai Ye who fell to the ground.

Bai Ye took a long time to stand up from the ground. After coughing, he looked at Yuan Ming.

Yuan Ming suddenly said: "Fellow Daoist He, tell me what conditions you have? We can talk about them."

"No, no, no, you misunderstood. How about you all attack the formation together at the same time, maybe it will work." He Wendao smiled and said.

Seeing that He Wendao did not make any conditions, Yuan Ming had already understood in his heart, and shouted loudly to the disciples of Shengye Sect who were gathered outside: "Disciples of Shengye Sect, listen, He Wendao is a spy, you should immediately disperse and flee from here, and don't come back."

The disciples outside the formation were at a loss for a while, looking at each other, and no one moved.

Xu Tian said loudly: "Disciples will not leave, disciples want to rescue the master."

Luo Xing'er also said: "Yes, Senior Brother Xu, we will not leave."

The other disciples were even more confused and at a loss.

Yuan Ming scolded Xu Tian: "Xu Tian, ​​I was specially arranged by your grandmother to protect you, believe me. If you can go back alive, tell your aunt Qu Jiang that Ming'er can't fulfill his filial piety. Leave now."

Xu Tian was shocked when he heard this and immediately understood who this Ha Gong who was trapped in the mine array in the depression was. Luo Xing'er looked at Yuan Ming in disbelief.

Elder Lu Shen heard this and his eyes flashed with surprise, but he quickly woke up.

"Disciples of Shengye Sect, listen to my order and flee from here immediately. Those who disobey will be regarded as traitors." Elder Lu Shen shouted.

After hearing his order, more than a dozen disciples of Shengye Sect fled in all directions.

Xu Tian gritted his teeth, grabbed Luo Xing'er, took out a talisman and slapped it. With a flash of yellow light, he took Luo Xing'er and disappeared underground.

Seeing this, He Wendao waved his hand, and a flying sword shot out from his sleeves, attacking the scattered and fleeing disciples. Several people were injured and fell to the ground. Fortunately, the disciples fled in different directions, and most of them escaped from the valley.

"Stop!" Lu Shen's eyes were about to burst.

"He Wendao, do some good deeds." Yuan Ming sneered and said.

"It would be better if you cooperated a little more. It's a pity that so many small fish slipped through the net." He Wendao stopped chasing the fleeing disciples and walked to the edge of the magic circle with a gentle smile on his face.

"You are not alone." Yuan Ming asked.

"It's useless to delay time. You have to accept your fate. You will all die here today." He Wendao looked at Yuan Ming and said with a smile.

"The cultivators who died inexplicably in Xiaohu City recently were all tricked and killed by you in this way?" Yuan Ming asked.

"You think too highly of them. Those people are not worthy of my going through so much trouble. You should feel honored." He Wendao replied.

"He Wendao, why are you like this?" Lu Shen shouted angrily.

"Elder Lu Shen, what you are asking is not professional, isn't it? It is normal for people to kill people and rob treasures in the immortal path, and those with virtue will get it. Why make such a fuss?" He Wendao couldn't help but sneer and asked back.

"You..." Elder Lu Shen was speechless for a moment.

"Your accomplices should come out too, right?" Yuan Ming raised his lips and said with a sneer.

Before he finished speaking, two figures came from the direction of the valley entrance in the distance.

One of them was a white-clothed teenager with a stern face and a pale face, with a white goshawk on his shoulder.

The other one was a tall bald man, his body was as strong as an iron tower, his muscles were as sharp as a knife and an axe, and he carried a bronze giant sword about one foot wide and five feet long on his back, which looked very oppressive.

"Fellow Daoist He, you've worked hard. This time we have a good harvest, three foundation-building cultivators, plus a group of Qi-refining cultivators, this time we have enough time to rest." The young man in white laughed loudly.

"It's still thanks to Brother Sha Hao's exquisite illusion." He Wendao said. "Did the flying boat stop it?"

"It's still a step too late. As soon as the magic array here was activated, the flying boat over there probably received Lu Shen's message and ran away." Sha Hao said.

"It ran away, it doesn't affect Pu Zhengqing's great reputation, and your reward will increase." He Wendao smiled.

Hearing the names "Sha Hao" and "Pu Zhengqing", Yuan Ming couldn't help but be slightly startled.

Although he had never seen this person, he knew his name. When he thought about the previous illusion, it was not difficult to determine his identity.

What he got from the storage ring of the great elder Xi Cangqiong when the Biluo Cave was destroyed was not worthy of his identity as the leader of a sect.

And Sha Hao, as Xi Cangqiong's direct disciple, disappeared, so he was naturally the most likely person to inherit his legacy.

In this case, the soul cultivator who was recently offered a reward of 100,000 spirit stones in the Loose Cultivators Association of Xiaohu City was his alias, and the previous illusion was also created by this person.

"There has been no reward for me so far, which is a bit boring." At this time, the iron tower giant said in a muffled voice.

"How can you compare with Brother Sha Hao. Just now, the guy named Ha Gong was a little clever and wanted to negotiate with me, which is quite interesting." He Wendao pointed at Yuan Ming through the lightning of the magic circle and said.

"Ha Gong? Sounds like he is from southern Xinjiang?" Sha Hao frowned a little warily when he heard this.

"Who cares where he comes from? Why bother? Kill him first." The iron tower giant said.

"Okay! So as to avoid more trouble at night." Sha Hao also nodded in agreement and said, "Shi Dian, do it."

"Okay." The iron tower giant named Shi Dian responded, took out the bronze giant sword from his back, walked a few steps to an inconspicuous pile of stones, and inserted the giant sword along the crack of the stone.

After a series of "chi chi" friction sounds, half of the bronze giant sword was inserted into the ground, with only half exposed outside. A purple spiritual stone inlaid on the hilt emitted a burst of light, and a steady stream of spiritual power was injected into it.

Yuan Ming's eyes focused, knowing that the center of the formation should be there.

A sharp bird cry pierced the sky.

A black bird about ten feet long was hovering in the sky. It was shaped like a falcon, with a hooked beak, slender claws, and shiny black feathers dotted with some purple patterns. It was the winged bird named "Thunderstorm" by Yuan Ming.

Thunderstorm just flew from a distance. Although it flew as fast as lightning, it was still a step late. If it was a step faster, it might be able to break the thunder trap.

At this moment, Thunderstorm rushed down to the formation, and its slender claws flashed purple electric sparks.

"Huh?" Sha Hao said in surprise: "Go, catch it alive."

The white eagle on Sha Hao's shoulder spread its wings and turned into a white light to quickly meet it. In a blink of an eye, they started fighting in the air. Although Lei Yu flew as fast as lightning, his strength was far inferior to that of this level 2 peak white eagle. In a blink of an eye, the two of them disappeared into the distance.

Lei Yu was still in his infancy after all. Although he had been well fed by Yuan Ming and placed in a place where thunderstorms were frequent for training, he was only a level 1 monster. With Bai Ying, Sha Hao and the other two around, it was like a moth flying into a flame with an egg hitting a rock.

Yuan Ming was thinking about countermeasures, and he looked up with horror. He saw that in the center of the lightning array above the three of them, a green lightning ball the size of a human head was condensing. There was a flash of lightning and thunder in it, and it contained an extremely powerful spiritual pressure.
