Chapter 309: The Mountains Are Thick and the Roads Are Deep, and People’s Hearts Are Complicated
"It's strange. We are about to reach the top of the mountain. Why haven't we seen a disciple of Songshan Temple? Could it be that they are so scared that they don't even dare to leave the Taoist temple?"
"I don't know, but I always have a bad feeling..."
"You must be overthinking it. In addition to our disciples from Biluo Temple, there are also monks from Liuyun outside this mountain."
"Not to mention that there is only one Nascent Soul cultivator in Songshan. Even if they are given one more, they still have no chance of making a comeback in this fatal situation."
On Xinsong Mountain, several disciples of Biluo Temple said this.
At this time, an hour had passed since they entered the mountain.
And during this time, they didn't even meet a disciple of Songshan Temple.
Not even a living person was seen.
This is undoubtedly very strange.
But out of their confidence in the coalition forces of the two temples, the disciples of Biluoguan didn't think much about it in the end.
People who thought it was Songshan Temple were too scared to come out.
But what they didn't notice was that just after they went up the mountain, the fog in the entire Xinsong Mountain began to thicken at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Soon, it reached a point where people couldn't even see their fingers.
If it is just an ordinary fog, monks above the Foundation Establishment stage can rely on divine sense to detect it and easily crack it.
But if these fogs can even block the monk's spiritual consciousness, then this will be troublesome.
Because this means that by this time, even the monks in the foundation building stage will not be able to grasp the surrounding situation.
It's easy to fall into an unknown ambush.
This is the case with the fog currently appearing on Xinsong Mountain.
"ah!"
In a forest somewhere in Xinsong Mountain, several disciples of Biluo Guan were walking when they suddenly heard a scream not far away.
Without any hesitation, under the leadership of a Foundation Establishment Stage disciple, and followed by ten Qi Training Stage disciples, a group of people rushed toward the source of the screams.
When they arrived, the scene in front of them made everyone look solemn.
What came into view were the corpses of dozens of Liuyun Temple disciples.
The death conditions of these guys were very miserable. Some were beheaded and some were cut in half.
Others had their vital points penetrated.
It can be said that everyone has his own way of dying.
Among these people, there are surprisingly two disciples in the foundation building stage.
Even they died inexplicably, not to mention that their team only had a team of foundation-building monks.
For a moment, everyone present became worried.
"Senior Brother Luo, how about we find a way to get in touch with the elders in the temple first?"
"Right now, everything in Songshan is full of weirdness. We haven't even seen the shadow of the enemy, but already so many brothers and sisters have been poisoned."
"If we continue on this path, we will follow in the footsteps of these brothers and sisters."
"Shut up!"
The leading senior brother named Luo scolded, then squatted down and began to observe the wounds on the corpses.
After some careful observation, he actually found some clues.
The wounds on these corpses and the remaining spell fluctuations were all very familiar to him.
It's obviously Biluo Guan's method.
If it was just a corpse like this, it could be explained by accidental injury.
But after looking at all the corpses, he found that the wounds on each corpse were like this.
This also allowed him to roughly understand the cause and effect of the matter.
"These brothers all died in the hands of their own people."
"ah?"
Facing the exclamations from the surrounding disciples, senior brother Luo did not pay attention, but continued to analyze: "To be able to enchant so many people at once, either a monk at the golden elixir level took action, or some kind of arrangement was arranged here. Big array.”
"Personally, I prefer the latter. After all, I haven't heard of any magical powers similar to enchantment among Songshan Temple's methods."
"I think they knew they couldn't defeat us out of the mountains, so they hired people to set up such a large formation on the mountains."
"Don't worry, everyone. Even if I can find something, the elders in the temple must have also discovered it."
"As long as the elders break this formation, Songshan will be like a turtle without its shell and can only be slaughtered by others."
"Everyone, be careful. If you encounter an enemy later, don't rush to take action. Maybe the opponent is not an enemy, but our fellow disciples."
Listen to Senior Brother Luo's well-founded analysis.
The Bi Luo Guan disciples present gradually became calmer from their original nervousness.
And their situation was all seen clearly by the little white deer in the mountains.
"Hey, I thought these guys would find out later. It seems that the master's formation won't last long."
The little white deer sat on the white jade crown of the main body, with a sad look on its little face.
There are currently four Jindan monks in Songshan, as well as hundreds of foundation-building and Qi-training monks.
Fortunately for these guys, even without relying on Lu Chen's formation, Guang Xiaobailu was confident that he could deal with them one by one.
The real trouble is actually the two skeleton boats parked outside Songshan.
Although Little White Deer has not left the mountain, it does not mean that she cannot sense the situation outside the mountain.
As the mountain god of Xinsong Mountain, every plant and tree on this mountain can become the eyes of the little white deer.
Therefore, she could clearly sense the terrifying dangers hidden on those two boats.
That was an existence that she could never fight against on her own.
But it was hard to return, so Little White Deer never thought of backing down.
At present, the master has gone to an unknown place. She is the only one who can be the master of the huge Biyou Palace.
If she doesn't stand up at this time, who else can stand up?
Thinking of this, the little white deer stood up, clenched her fists hard, and showed a determined look.
"Master said that if there are cultivators above the Nascent Soul stage, let me hide well."
"But now those Nascent Soul stage cultivators are still hiding outside and dare not come in. Only cultivators below the Nascent Soul stage come in."
"In this case, I don't think we need to hide."
"Otherwise, once they come to the top of the mountain and find that there is no one in Songshan, they will sooner or later follow the clues and find the Biyou Palace in the mountain."
"At present, I am the only one who can protect the Biyou Palace!"
The tone of the little white deer was very firm, as if the entire Biyou Palace was on her shoulders at this time.
Thinking of this, the little white deer made a decision that went against the master.
She... is going to take action!
Soon, the little white deer relied on the natal sword as a carrier and left the Biyou Palace quietly in the form of a clone.
What she didn't know was that at this time, Lu Chen had already returned to the original Songshan Temple on the top of the mountain and saw her actions in detail.
Looking at the little white deer who was so "reckless", Lu Chen shook his head.
He thought that after three months of teaching, the little white deer had deeply understood what "stability" meant and what "planning before deciding" meant.
But now it seems that the little white deer is still too young.
Even if the innate spiritual body has a high level of comprehension and a strong learning ability.
But in just a few months, she still can't learn too much life experience.
After all, some things can't be truly learned just by hearing or reading from books.
You must experience it once in person.
Thinking of this, Lu Chen was not in a hurry to take action.
It was just the right opportunity to teach the little white deer a profound lesson.
Let her know that it is better not to expose herself to the enemy before she is absolutely sure.
The reason why Lu Chen is not worried about the safety of the little white deer.
It is because he has already established a connection with the disciples of Daqian Mountain who are in charge of this place.
And reached a certain deal with the other party.
This is why he came out of the mountain some time ago.
It can be said that with the conclusion of the deal, the ending of Liuyun and Biluo has been determined.
They thought they were chess players, but they didn't know that they had become chess pieces on Lu Chen's chessboard.
Even the Yuanying stage cultivator of Daqian Mountain was just one of the chess pieces on Lu Chen's chessboard...
At the top of Xinsong Mountain.
Although there are not many Liuyun Temples here at this time, there are only four people.
But these four people are all Jindan-level cultivators without exception.
Otherwise, they would not be able to break through the formation left in the mountain to come here.
The four looked at the Songshan Temple with its doors closed, and they were not in a hurry to take action.
Because along the way, they have learned a lot of the methods of "Songshan Temple".
Whether it was the fog array that covered the entire mountain or the extremely lethal sword array in it.
They all caused them a lot of trouble.
If the four of them had not gathered together early and had good means.
Perhaps they would have been killed by the array before they even arrived here.
Having suffered such a big loss, the four of them naturally became cautious.
Moreover, they were just the vanguard troops who came in to investigate the situation. Their mission was just to find out the distribution of the monks in Songshan Temple and to roughly explore the dangerous places in the mountain.
There is no doubt that they have almost completed their mission when they came to the top of Songshan Mountain.
Therefore, they only need to pass on the information here.
But just as the four of them were about to go down the mountain, something unexpected happened.
The environment around the four of them began to change rapidly.
Songshan, which was originally shrouded in fog, disappeared.
Instead, there was a huge sky-high white jade tree.
Looking at the magnificent white jade tree in the distance, the four people with a broad vision left and understood what happened.
"Oh no, it's the sword domain, everyone be careful!"
A Jindan-stage cultivator said as he began to retreat.
He looked like he was going to use the others as bait to buy himself time to escape.
But two of the other three had the same idea as him.
They all started to retreat at the first opportunity.
Only one person seemed to be stunned and stood there motionless.
Looking at the Jindan-stage cultivator who was standing there, the little white deer who used the sword domain also instinctively felt that the other party was frightened by his sword domain, so he didn't pay too much attention to him.
He directly attacked the other three Jindan-stage cultivators of Biluo Temple who wanted to escape.
But when the countless sword energy branches transformed by the little white deer's sword domain swept towards the three Jindan-stage cultivators.
A majestic momentum was released from the ordinary Jindan-stage cultivator.
"Law of Heaven and Earth?!"
The little white deer looked at the giant snake that appeared in front of him in an instant, and the expression on his face was stunned on the spot.
She had clearly observed the people who came up the mountain carefully and made sure that there were no Yuanying-stage cultivators before she took action.
But she never thought that the other party was so insidious.
He actually used a secret method to conceal his own cultivation and disguised himself as an ordinary Jindan-stage cultivator.
No wonder the master said that the outside world is very complicated and many things cannot be solved by cultivation alone.
She has only lived for more than three months, how can she beat these old guys who have lived for hundreds of years!
At this time, the Yuanying stage cultivator of Biluo Temple, Lv Zhiwei, was shocked as much as the little white deer.
A spiritual body in the foundation building stage has already mastered the sword domain of the Hedao realm.
And he can also see that the child is definitely not very old.
It is very likely that he was born not long ago.
When he thought of this, Lv Zhiwei's eyes were full of greed.
If he could swallow the little white deer, even if he could not fully obtain the other party's talent.
But even if he obtained one tenth, he could still achieve the effect of rebirth.
Maybe it can also increase his success rate in the future.
"I never thought that I could get such an unexpected harvest when I quietly went up the mountain. God really treats me well."
Lv Zhiwei laughed while smashing the sword domain displayed by the little white deer.
For ordinary Jindan stage cultivators, the Hedao realm sword domain of the little white deer is unsolvable.
But for Lu Zhiwei, who was in the Nascent Soul stage and had mastered the Law of Heaven and Earth.
The Hedao Realm Sword Domain of the Foundation Establishment stage was still too fragile.
It was simply unable to trap a giant like the Nascent Soul stage.
Looking at Lu Zhiwei who was quickly attacking her, Xiao Bailu had no intention of fighting at this time.
She turned around and ran without hesitation.
The direction she ran was not the Biyou Palace in the mountain.
But it was outside the mountain.
Although the situation was dangerous, Xiao Bailu knew that she must not expose the existence of the Biyou Palace.
Without her natal flying sword, her foundation was damaged and her vitality was seriously injured.
But if Lu Zhiwei found the Biyou Palace and discovered her true body.
That would not be as simple as being injured.
But Xiao Bailu still underestimated the means of the Nascent Soul cultivator.
Almost at the same time when Xiao Bailu wanted to escape, the scales of the Tongtian Giant Snake at the center of its eyebrows not far away burst into a strange green light.
Under the green light, the little white deer felt her body become stiff, and it became difficult to circulate the spiritual power in her body.
Not long after, she fell directly from the air and hit the ground heavily.
The little white deer raised her head and looked at the giant snake above her head with fear.
She regretted not listening to her master Lu Chen.
The master clearly said that we should not only look at the present, and we should never take chances.
She should not be naive to think that only the Jindan stage was among the people who went up the mountain.
She should have made the worst plan, based on the premise that there were cultivators of the Yuanying stage or even higher cultivation, and made plans based on this.
Naive, she was indeed too naive.
Seeing that the giant snake above her head had opened its bloody mouth and was getting closer and closer to her.
The little white deer closed her eyes in despair.
But the next second, a familiar voice came from her ears.
"After this incident, you should understand the truth that your teacher said before."
Little White Deer turned around in surprise and found that Lu Chen had come to her side without her knowing when...
