Three Hundred and Fortieth Chapters Lured Into the Trap

The young man looked up at Shi Mu with hesitation in his eyes.

"I don't have time to waste with you. If you don't say anything, you will see the end!" Shi Mu said with a hint of impatience on his face.

"I said, can you promise to let me go?" The young man gritted his teeth and said.

"I have no interest in your life." Shi Mu said.

Hearing this, the young man breathed a sigh of relief, and said:

"We have received a mission from Zongmen to pick up a convoy. There are images of you in the mission, and it is said that we may meet you..."

Before he could finish his sentence, a yellow glow flashed on the ground, and a large number of sharp khaki light arrows suddenly drilled out, piercing densely at the young man.

Shi Mu was startled, and with one hand raised, several fireballs flew out, facing those yellow light arrows!

The roar is loud!

These light arrows collapsed one after another under the fireball attack.

It's just that these light arrows appeared too suddenly and were too close to the young man. Although Shi Mu reacted extremely quickly, a small part of them still penetrated the young man's body.

The young man let out a loud cry, his body fell limply to the ground, and the pupils of his eyes dilated immediately.

Shi Mu's eyes flashed golden light, and he suddenly turned around to look around.

"Stone, it's to the north!" Cai'er hovered in the air, and her voice sounded in Shi Mu's heart.

Shi Mu suddenly looked to the north direction, a gray figure was jumping out from behind a huge boulder hundreds of meters away, and was darting towards the distance with incomparable speed.

"Where to run!"

Shi Mu let out a low cry, and raised his hands to sacrifice the sapphire long shuttle, supported him and Zhong Xiu, turned into a blue rainbow, and chased after the gray figure.

Judging from the mana fluctuations emanating from the gray figure, this person should be a star-rank warlock. He did not know what spell he was casting at this moment, and the speed was quite astonishing.

This person seems to be very familiar with the terrain of this valley, and he specially looks for some narrow and remote paths, or paths with many obstacles, and jumps and changes directions from time to time, making it impossible for Shi Mu's flying spirit weapon to take advantage of its speed.

But You Cai'er was looking down on Pathfinder in mid-air, this person's tricks were in vain after all.

The two of Shi Mu chased closer and closer, and they were only more than ten feet away from the man.

A cold light flashed in Shi Mu's eyes, and with a wave of one hand, a golden sword light flew out, and in a flash, three sword lights transformed into three sword lights, cutting towards the gray figure.

Seeing that he was about to be cut off, a gray light suddenly appeared around the gray figure, and then the whole person turned into a blurry gray shadow, passing through the sword light dangerously, and then turned around, and flew away again. Into a small valley on the side.

Shi Mu snorted coldly, the cyan shuttle under his feet lit up, turned into a blue shadow, and flew in.

"Stone, be careful, you can't get in!" At this moment, Cai'er's voice sounded in Shi Mu's heart.

His face changed, it was too late to stop the long shuttle, his eyes blurred, the surrounding scenery changed drastically, a yellow light curtain appeared out of nowhere above his head and surroundings, enveloping the two of them, followed by a faint pressure It came out from the surrounding light curtain and squeezed towards the two of them.

"Array!" Shi Mu's face changed, and with a wave of his hand, he put away the blue long shuttle, and landed on the ground with Zhong Xiu.

The yellow light curtain looks extremely thick, and the yellow fog is misty, and the outside situation can only be vaguely seen from the inside.

But Shi Mu didn't need to look, he could see the situation outside the formation through Cai'er's vision outside.

He hurriedly kept Cai'er away from the valley to avoid being discovered, after all Cai'er had almost no fighting ability.

Outside the formation, a gray-robed man waved his hands, emitting streaks of yellow light, and entered the formation.

Around the magic circle, there were five other Mingyue Sect sorcerers in gray robes at some point, holding jade tablets, formation flags and other objects, and also chanting spells in their mouths.

As several people cast their spells, the khaki-yellow formation started to work, forming a huge egg-shaped light curtain, covering Shi Mu and the others inside.

The golden light in Shi Mu's eyes was flowing, and he looked around, and immediately had a panoramic view of the small runes that appeared and flowed in the surrounding magic circle.

Although he has limited knowledge of magic circles, he has dabbled deeply in talismans. After all, magic circles are nothing more than engraving complex and complicated talisman circles on the ground, and the two have the same root and origin.

After his observation, this formation should be just an earth-type trapping formation. Apart from being stronger, it has no other attack characteristics. As long as it takes some time, he is sure to be able to break it.

wait, take some time...

Shi Mu's heart flashed suddenly, and he understood the purpose of these people.

At this moment, Zhong Xiu's voice sounded:

"Brother Shi, this formation should be a pure confinement formation, with no lethal ability."

"That's right, the purpose of these people was not to kill us. The man in gray just now should have deliberately lured us here and trapped us with this formation," Shi Mu said.

"In other words, the Fuyun team should be nearby at the moment. They are buying time for the team. Once the team enters Youfeng Valley, things will be troublesome." Zhong Xiu's face changed slightly when he heard this, and he immediately understood.

"Break through the formation quickly, maybe we can still make it in time!" Shi Mu said in a deep voice, and pulled out the Meteorite Black Saber on his back with his backhand.

Zhong Xiu nodded, and waved out the white jade harp.

A black light radiated from Shi Mu's chest, and he completed the totem transformation in an instant, holding the knife with both hands, urging the true energy in his body to crazily inject into the blade.

However, the next moment, his complexion changed.

After the true energy was injected into the Meteorite Black Knife, the Black Knife did not react at all, and did not light up the previous crystal light as expected.

Shi Mu's expression was stunned, a little stunned, he wanted to try to activate the black knife's ability like he did with Mo Yunyang before, and break out of the formation in one go, but he didn't get what he wanted.

On the other side, Zhong Xiu had already started to play the guqin, and with the clear sound of the piano, blue ripples like water ripples emerged, and turned into phantoms of blue spears, rushing towards the yellow light curtain.

Groups of bright yellow and blue light clusters emerged one after another on the surface of the magic circle, causing the yellow light curtain to vibrate.

"Come on, trap them!" Outside the light curtain, the gray-robed man saw the abnormal change of the magic circle and shouted.

Then the spiritual light flashed at the back of his head, and four phantom starlights appeared, and the movements of his hands immediately accelerated a bit, and one to two starlights also appeared behind the heads of several people around him.

Under the joint spellcasting of six star-level warlocks, the magic circle immediately stabilized.

In the magic circle, after Shi Mu tried several times, the black knife in his hand still had no special reaction, so he couldn't help frowning.

"Is the previous success just a coincidence?"

Thoughts in Shi Mu's mind turned sharply, but he immediately suppressed the anxiety in his heart, now is not the time to be obsessed with this matter.

With a loud shout, he decisively swiped the black knife in his hand, turning it into a black light, and chopping it on the yellow light curtain.

The khaki light curtain suddenly trembled, and a large piece of yellow light was chopped off by the black knife, turning into a piece of yellow mist and drifting away.

Then Shi Mu's whole body turned into a black figure, moving back and forth in the light curtain, attacking the barriers of the formation crazily like lightning and thunderbolts, while waving fireballs one after another.

Seeing Shi Mu's actions, Zhong Xiu immediately accelerated his attack, blue ripples condensed into long spears and daggers, slashing on the light curtain, and waved out ice picks with the other hand.

Both of them are both masters of martial arts, and their attainments in martial arts are not weak.

After Shi Mu transformed into a beast, he already had earth-level strength, and Zhong Xiu was even a moon-level warlock. Under the joint attack, the Wutu yellow armor array flashed wildly, and the thickness of the light curtain gradually became thinner.

In less than a stick of incense, the light curtain has become extremely thin.

"We must not let them break out!"

Outside the magic circle, the gray-robed man saw that the magic circle was out of support, and roared wildly. Among the three starlights behind his head, a little starlight radiated brightly, and immediately exploded.

The other five people agreed at the same time, and they also urged the starlight phantom to burst in the back of their heads.

As strands of gray mist sank into the bodies of several people, the mana fluctuations on these people suddenly increased, and their hands shone like wheels.

As soon as the yellow light curtain shone brightly, traces of yellow light continuously formed on it, filling in the missing parts of the light curtain, making the magic circle stable again.

In the formation, Shi Mu's expression turned ugly when he saw this scene.

Seeing that the formation was about to be broken, there was another change, and it was impossible to break through the formation in a short time.

And after such a long delay, the Floating Cloud convoy has probably entered Youfeng Valley.

He was bored in his heart, causing heat to surge in the dantian in his body, he let out a low cry, flipped the black knife in his hand, and slashed across the light curtain.

The moment the black knife was swung out, a layer of crystal light suddenly appeared on the surface of the knife.

Click! The blade of the black knife cut deeply into the light curtain.

Shi Mu was stunned for a moment, and then revealed a look of ecstasy, and quickly urged the true energy in his body to crazily inject it onto the black knife.

The crystal light on the black knife swelled up to more than two feet.

He held the knife in both hands and turned his wrist vigorously.

With a blunt "click", a deep mark was drawn on the light curtain.

The original solid light curtain was like an ordinary earth wall in front of the black knife at this moment, and a large piece could be easily cut off.

Shi Mu took advantage of the situation and danced the black knife into a blade, slashing wildly on the light curtain.

Within a few breaths, dozens of deep marks were cut on the light curtain in front of Shi Mu, and the thickness of the light curtain was weakened by nearly half.

"Xiu'er, don't worry about other places, join me in attacking this one!" He turned his head and shouted to Zhong Xiu.

Zhong Xiu looked over, and her pretty face immediately beamed with joy.

Clank!

The sonorous and chilling sound of the piano sounded, blue ripples appeared, and then gathered together, condensing into a thick blue spear shadow about Zhang Xu long.

boom!

The blue spear shadow fiercely bombarded the light curtain, and the light curtain flashed wildly, and was immediately weakened by another level.

"How can it be?"

Outside the light curtain, the grey-robed man's face changed drastically, and he didn't understand what happened inside.

At this moment, a white light appeared on a black jade bracelet on his wrist, and then dissipated immediately.

The grey-robed man's face relaxed, and he turned his head and shouted to the others.

"The mission has been completed, we retreat!"

When the other people heard this, they also breathed a sigh of relief, stood up, and were about to leave.

At this moment, there was a "click"!

A thick crack appeared on the light curtain, and then a section of blade exuding crystal light pierced out of the light curtain. (To be continued.)
