Chapter 387: The Power of the Formation
As soon as the two landed, a large area of fire suddenly appeared around them, and quickly condensed into giant fireballs the size of water tanks, which came towards the two with rolling heat waves.
At the same time, a large area of fire appeared out of thin air above the valley, and quickly condensed into a red cloud of more than ten feet in size, and the area of the red cloud was constantly expanding.
"Not good, formation!" The middle-aged Taoist's face changed, and he said in surprise.
He never thought that the valley was actually set up with a formation. He didn't know if there were people living in the cave. If no one lived, it would be fine. If someone lived, it would be troublesome.
He didn't have time to think about it, and several giant fireballs the size of water tanks hit him.
The middle-aged Taoist snorted lightly, and the green whisk in his hand shook suddenly. The green whisk suddenly emitted a green light. After a muffled "puff" sound, countless slender green hair flew out and greeted it.
With a few loud "booms", several giant fireballs the size of water tanks were smashed into pieces, turning into tiny flames that dissipated, and not a single ray of flame could touch the middle-aged Taoist priest.
At the same time, several giant fireballs also arrived in front of the woman in the red skirt.
The woman in the red skirt did not change her expression, and slapped the red gourd on her waist with her jade hand. The red gourd sprayed out a red light and turned into a thick red light shield, covering her inside.
Several giant fireballs hit the red light shield, which did not move at all. The giant fireballs flashed wildly for a few times and dissipated.
At this time, the red cloud above the valley was already a hundred feet in size, rolling like lava, producing inverted bubbles.
"Damn it, this is an intermediate spell, the Fire Rain Spell. Each drop of fire rain is equivalent to a blow from a foundation-building cultivator. There is actually an attack formation here." The middle-aged Taoist priest's face sank and said seriously.
"If no one is controlling the formation, we can still resist it. If someone is controlling the formation, we are afraid that we will be in danger." The woman in the red skirt said with a gloomy face.
"Let's not talk about this for now. Let's work together to block the Fire Rain Spell. I can't block this large-scale intermediate spell by myself." The middle-aged Taoist said this, and slapped the storage bag on his waist with his palm, and a palm-sized blue pot flew out of it.
The middle-aged Taoist pinched his fingers with one hand, and a spell hit the small pot. The small pot suddenly emitted a blue light. A blue light flew out from the spout of the pot and turned into a blue light curtain several feet in size, covering him and the woman in the red skirt.
The woman in the red skirt raised her jade hand, and a palm-sized red jade bowl flew out of her hand and flew over the heads of the two.
She pinched her hands with a spell, and several spells hit the red jade bowl.
The red jade bowl then shone brightly, and a red light shot out from it, turning into a larger red light curtain, covering the two people.
The red-skirted woman changed her spells, and a spell flashed on the red porcelain bowl.
A crisp bird cry sounded, and a palm-sized red firebird flew out of it. After a sway in the wind, it drilled into the red light curtain and kept wandering on the surface of the red light curtain.
As soon as she finished all this, bean-sized red raindrops poured down.
Dense red raindrops hit the red light curtain and disappeared in a flash. The red light curtain did not move at all, but the size of the red firebird continued to grow.
The red raindrops fell on the ground, and a puff of green smoke rose from the ground. The hard stones were melted by the fire rain. Even the stone walls on both sides of the valley showed signs of melting.
Outside the peach blossom forest, a silver light flashed, revealing the figure of Ma Yunfei. He looked at the red fire cloud above the valley, and his face was uncertain.
"Attack the formation! It seems that there is really an ancient cultivator's cave here. Let those two guys break the formation first, and then I will do a mantis catching a cicada. However, the distance is too far, so I need to observe it closer." Ma Yunfei muttered to himself in a low voice.
After that, he raised his foot and walked forward.
As soon as he stepped into the peach blossom forest, the environment in front of him suddenly changed.
He suddenly appeared in a spacious hall. A middle-aged man with a majestic face sat on the main seat, and on the left and right sides, there were more than a dozen middle-aged men and women.
Ma Yunfei's hands and feet were locked in shackles, making it difficult for him to move.
"Why am I back to the family? Is this an illusion?" Ma Yunfei was stunned at first, and then he realized that he had stepped into a certain illusion formation.
Although Ma Yunfei knew that everything in front of him was an illusion, with his attainments in the formation, he could not break out of the formation immediately, so he could only follow the illusion to find flaws.
"Ma Yunfei, you killed your own people, do you admit your guilt?" The middle-aged man asked seriously with a serious face.
"Killing people of the same clan!" Ma Yunfei's heart sank.
In his early years, he did kill a member of the same clan in order to snatch a three-hundred-year-old spiritual medicine, but he did it very secretly, and there was no second person present. How did the clan leader know?
"Clan leader, I am innocent! I never did this." Ma Yunfei shook his head and said seriously.
Although he knew it was an illusion, he still did not dare to admit that he had killed people of the same clan.
"You can't deny it. If someone can prove that you did this, bring the person up." The middle-aged man said coldly.
A beautiful woman in a green dress walked in, with a calm look on her face.
"Qing'er, why is it you!" Ma Yunfei's face changed drastically, and he said in disbelief.
The woman in the green skirt was none other than his Taoist partner in dual cultivation.
"Liu Qing, tell us what happened! So that this rebel will give up." The middle-aged man ordered.
The woman in the green skirt nodded and said, "That day he went to a private party with his cousin and got drunk. When he came back, he talked nonsense and accidentally told the matter. I have the echo bamboo as a witness."
After that, she took out a piece of green bamboo about an inch long from the storage bag.
She slapped the green bamboo with her jade hand, and a man's voice suddenly sounded: "Qing'er, I'll tell you a secret. When I was at the tenth level of Qi Refining, I and a tribe member discovered a 300-year-old moonlight grass at the same time. In order to keep the moonlight grass for myself, I killed him. I have never told anyone else about this. You are not allowed to spread it. If the tribe leader knows about it, it will be a big trouble."
"Impossible, impossible, this is all fake, all fake, you are all fake." Ma Yunfei's face turned pale, his legs softened, and he fell to the ground, muttering to himself, his face full of disbelief.
"Humph, there are witnesses and evidence, and you still want to quibble. Come on, put him in the dungeon and imprison him until he dies." The middle-aged man sneered and ordered.
Two guards immediately walked in from outside the hall, carried Ma Yunfei and walked out.
"Let me go, this is an illusion, it can't be real, let me go." Ma Yunfei suddenly thought of something and struggled hard, but it was useless, and he was carried out by two guards.
After a cup of tea, Ma Yunfei appeared in a dark and damp dungeon.
