When Li Zhaoyan thought of this result, his body shuddered again. The jade box was just a spiritual treasure-grade box with an illusion array and was slightly stronger. Its defensive power was limited.
A series of images immediately emerged in Li Zhaoyan's mind. They were some familiar "scenes" and Li Zhaoyan screamed subconsciously.
"mother!"
With a scream, she shot out like an arrow. At the same time, a token appeared in her hand. As the token flashed, the formation restrictions in the courtyard suddenly emitted white light.
Li Zhaoyan's movements of flying away and opening the restriction were done in one go, as if he had practiced it many times before.
Just as she shot out of the courtyard and the white light of the formation restriction lit up, a loud noise came from behind her.
"boom!"
Li Zhaoyan, who was flying in the air, felt the ground beneath her feet shaking violently. Her body also shook violently for several times in the air. After she desperately mobilized her magic power, she avoided falling from the air.
At this moment, after that loud noise, everything in the rear returned to calm.
Li Zhaoyan immediately turned around and found that except for a few flashes of white light in the sky above her family's yard, everything else was normal. She couldn't help but pat her already plump chest with her jade hands.
"It scared me to death!"
After saying this, she quickly covered her mouth with her hand, then looked around quickly. Seeing that there was no one else nearby, she stuck out her pink tongue.
In such shock, she actually blurted out a catchphrase that Li Changting often said to her uncle.
But the next moment, Li Zhaoyan seemed to have thought of something, and her pretty face immediately frowned. Then her eyes rolled and she comforted herself softly.
"Maybe it's okay? It's trapped in the jade box. The illusion array is also an array, so it can resist it to some extent! Or maybe the 'Red Sore Bee Gu' has been corroded by the poison, and the power of its self-destruction has been greatly reduced..."
As she was thinking in her mind, she had already flown back to the courtyard and waved the token in her hand towards the formation restriction again.
Then, the white light in front of her eyes disappeared, and then... Then she saw a scene that was somewhat familiar, but made her stunned.
The courtyard was in a mess. The stone tables and benches, the emerald green trees, and the spiritual plant garden were all gone, and the soil looked like it had been renovated.
A big pit appeared at the location of the stone table in the yard. The dark pit looked like a big grinning mouth, smiling at her, and the black hole spread out in all directions in a scattered manner!
As for the rows of houses near the front yard, only a few ruins were left, and some places were still emitting wisps of smoke...
"This is bad..."
Li Zhaoyan suddenly became very upset and stared blankly at everything in front of him.
At this moment, just above her head, the space fluctuated slightly, and a burly man appeared.
The big man looked at everything in front of him, his whole face darkened, and he instantly realized how accurate his previous feeling about his heartbeat was.
"Zhao Yan, what did you do?"
Li Zhaoyan, who was in a daze, was startled when she heard someone shouting at her. She quickly dodged to a distance and then saw who was coming.
A smile suddenly appeared on her pretty face.
"Second Master, it's your turn on duty again!"
The big man was Wei Chituo. Although he and Li Wuyi were brothers in the same sect, Li Zhaoyan called him by a different name.
As for Li Wuyi, Zhao Min asked him to call him uncle, which obviously meant that he regarded him as Wei Chongran's adopted son. However, Wei Chituo and the others followed the seniority principle from Li Yan's side.
"Of course, it's me on duty again!!"
Wei Chituo stared at the ruins below with his big eyes, feeling depressed, and gritted his teeth in his heart.
How could this little ancestor cause such troubles again when I was in charge of the main hall? This kind of thing has happened to me three times.
He was also scolded by his master for this, saying that he did not take full control of the situation in Xiaozhu Peak when he was not in charge.
Wei Chituo looked at everything in front of him and had to say that the defense of the formation and restrictions in the courtyard of a Nascent Soul cultivator was quite good. It never affected others. But this thing could only defend against the outside and not the inside. It destroyed the little junior brother's home.
"I can't let the expense be levied on me just because I'm in charge.
Not only was he scolded by his master the first time for not explaining clearly, but later on, his eldest senior brother also withheld a lot of spirit stones from him to repair the houses of his brother-in-law and junior fellow apprentice.
When I received the monthly spiritual stones, I found that the amount was wrong. I went to reason with him, but he beat me up. He said that I was in charge of the main hall, but I couldn't even explain a small matter clearly, so I should remember it for a long time! "
Seeing that Li Zhaoyan didn't answer his question, he just blinked his beautiful big eyes and looked at him somewhat aggrievedly.
Wei Chituo did not continue to ask questions and thought to himself.
"Why are you feeling wronged? When your uncle beat me, I saw you smiling happily beside me..."
He then stretched out his empty palm in the air, and a big hand immediately appeared and grabbed Li Zhaoyan.
"Second... Second Uncle, Second Uncle!!"
Li Zhaoyan couldn't help but panic when he saw this. Wei Chituo didn't say much and took Li Zhaoyan away.
Then, Wei Chituo’s very sad voice was heard above Xiaozhu Peak.
"Master, Master, your granddaughter has gotten into trouble again!"
Wei Chituo was a careless but not rude person. He never said the word "granddaughter" in front of Wei Chongran and Zhao Zhi, but he called her "granddaughter" all the time.
His voice instantly resounded throughout the entire Xiaozhu Peak. In a bamboo courtyard, Wei Chongran's body suddenly shook. "She... what did she do? There hasn't been much movement at Xiaozhu Peak for a few months. I was wondering why the vibration just now felt a little familiar!"
… …
The lost continent was shrouded in darkness. The few stars seemed to be insignificant and the grassland was pitch black.
The long thatch is half a person's height and sways gently in the night wind, raising up and down the sea of grass, giving people a sense of tranquility and seclusion.
There is no one here, only the occasional roar of some monsters can be heard in the darkness, which spreads far into the night, adding a sense of solemnity and murderousness.
Suddenly, the long thatch shook rapidly, drawing a long straight line, but only in a moment, the grass waves came together again, and everything returned to normal.
Just two breaths later, a white light flashed in the sky, and then the space twisted slightly, and a tall figure appeared out of thin air in the void.
The man was wearing a silver cloak and long patterned combat boots. He had long curly hair that fell on his shoulders like waves. His facial features were rough, and he had his hands clasped across his chest, his tiger eyes darting around.
"Mu Sha, you are so brave! As a captain of the Black Demon Clan, you dare to come here alone. Now that your whereabouts have been exposed, you still want to escape from someone's hands. You are really wishful thinking!
I'll give you three breaths of time. Either come out and die, or understand yourself. Then, because you are a man, I will leave some corpses for you.
How about I just cut off your head and bury the rest of you to prevent you from falling into the belly of those monsters?"
The big man in the silver cloak spoke as he scanned the surroundings with his spiritual sense.
Mu Sha was really bold. As a captain of the "Demon Blade Camp", he did not send other people to gather intelligence, but came here alone. After entering his own sect, he still found nothing.
But the other party was so bold that he actually wanted to take the opportunity to assassinate him after getting the information. If it weren't for the protective jade talisman to warn him, the outcome would be hard to predict.
This made the big man in the silver cloak furious. After all, he was an early Nascent Soul cultivator and had just defected to the White Demon Clan, but the news had leaked out so quickly.
Moreover, a mere Jindan-level captain of a thousand men did not even take him seriously and even wanted to assassinate him.
"There is a traitor among the higher-ups in the sect, otherwise the 'Devil Blade Camp' wouldn't have been spying on us so quickly, and it's the most ferocious centurion commander in recent years!"
The big man in the silver cloak had his mind racing, thinking quickly about what happened tonight.
He decided to kill the person in front of him quickly. After returning, he would search the souls of the few people in the sect whom he suspected, and then immediately take the border defense map of the Black Demon Clan that he had obtained and flee to the White Demon Clan.
He was originally a sect under the jurisdiction of the Black Demon Clan. He would take turns to guard and assist the Black Demon Clan in defending a section of the fortress on the border. In the past few years, monks from the White Demon Clan had secretly contacted him.
As long as he could secretly provide the other party with military intelligence, he would be given the cultivation resources he had always dreamed of. He was shocked at the time.
Some even thought of directly reporting that someone from the White Demon Clan had contacted them, and then setting a trap to capture the other party. After that, they could follow the clues and lead to a large group of enemy thieves, and they could also be rewarded for it.
But when he thought of the conditions offered by the other party, it was difficult for him to make up his mind. If he could get the resources promised by the White Demon Clan, there would be a 50% chance that he would be able to break through to the middle stage of the Nascent Soul within 300 years.
This made the big man in the silver cloak hesitate for a long time, but he finally decided to give it a try. "People die for money, birds die for food." As a cultivator, he is already walking on a path that goes against the will of heaven.
But he never expected that his close confidants or disciples would actually betray him, leading to an investigation by the terrifying "Demon Blade Camp".
Although he could no longer provide the White Demons with a steady stream of military intelligence, the border defense map in his hands would still bring huge benefits to the White Demons.
However, this period of time is only half a month at most. Any longer will be useless. Even if the Black Demon Clan does not find any problems, they will redeploy regularly.
Soon, three breaths passed, but the grassland below was still dead silent, with no movement at all.
"'Immortal Demon Vine', huh?? Today I will turn you into a dead man!"
The big man in the silver cloak sneered. He knew that the other party was hiding below, but because his breath was hidden too well, he really couldn't find it for a while.
Mu Shadu came to find him in person. He didn't believe that the other party didn't have any backup plan. Therefore, he could not delay any longer to avoid any changes. He had to go back early and prepare to escape.
"Get up for me!"
The big man was sneering one moment, and the next he shouted loudly, and at the same time, he curled his fingers into claws and slammed down on the ground below.
As he stretched out his hands downward, two giant claws, each ten feet long, immediately appeared below the void where he was standing, with dark green light flashing between the ten fingers of the claws.
In the dark night, it was like two ghost claws falling from the sky, grabbing the ground and pressing down a large area of tall thatch.
“Ka-ka-ka…”
With a series of sounds like bowstrings breaking, ten long sharp fingers cut through the roots of the weeds while digging deep into the ground.
The ground of the grassland is very soft because of the large areas of green grass, but because of this, even if you insert a sharp blade into the ground, it will be blocked by the roots that are several feet deep and tangled underground. It is extremely difficult and will often be blocked after entering the ground for just an inch.
Just as the big man in the silver cloak shouted, huge green claws had already gripped the ground, and he suddenly raised his hand.
With a rumbling sound, the Nascent Soul cultivator's tremendous supernatural power burst out instantly.
A piece of ground with a radius of five hundred feet was lifted up like a pot lid and flew into the sky, revealing a large conical pit a hundred feet deep on the ground.
The huge piece of grass that was pulled into the sky was like a hill that flew up with a strange roar and shot towards the sky.
The next moment, it was swept away by a huge force and turned into powder in the sky.
The big man in the silver cloak, like an ancient giant god, stood in the air, his hands never stopped, clapping down continuously and grabbing at the deep grass on the ground.
He kept pulling up and crushing pieces of earth that were hundreds of feet thick... pulling up and crushing them again... and from the huge pits below that were hundreds of feet deep, streams of water gushed out.
A lake thousands of feet in size soon appeared on the ground with him as the center, spreading out in all directions!
