Chapter 434: Escape
At this time, Xu Ziyue was indeed lost.
As a spiritual practitioner at the eighth level of Qi Refining, she has occasionally been involved in formations and has some familiarity with them.
But I have never been able to feel the existence of the formation.
Only when he saw with his own eyes that the flying spiritual weapon could not take off did he believe Qin Shaochen's judgment.
The group of them had already unknowingly stepped into the enemy's trap.
However, she still couldn't agree with Qin Shaochen's method of breaking the formation.
How can we dig it out from the ground?
I have never heard of anyone using that method to break the formation.
Therefore, she still wanted to try to see if she could get out.
Xu Ziyue's personality has always been cautious.
Decided to give it a try though.
But he still strictly followed Qin Shaochen's instructions. Every time he passed a few big trees, he would carve a sign on the trunk.
In this way, at least it won't be impossible to return.
But as she walked, she suddenly realized that she had only been walking for an unknown amount of time while carving marks.
Ten minutes?
Or twenty minutes?
Or, has it been an hour?
Xu Ziyue was shocked.
That's when it felt like something wasn't right.
She actually completely forgot about time, and she even forgot that she couldn't go too far.
"Oops!"
Xu Ziyue turned around quickly.
Looking at the mark carved with a knife on the big tree next to her, she quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
But the next second, I was a little confused.
The markings here are clearly visible though.
But looking around, I couldn't see any other marks.
"What's going on?"
Xu Ziyue was suddenly at a loss!
She clearly remembered that every time she passed a few big trees, she would stop and leave marks on the trees.
And make sure that when you stand at the new mark, you can always see the previous mark.
But now...,
"Strange?"
"Can those big trees run away?"
"Where are all the markers?"
Xu Ziyue couldn't help but become a little anxious.
He quickly searched everywhere.
Looking around in the woods.
After spinning for a while, I felt dizzy.
Not only was no new mark found, the previous mark was no longer visible.
"Oops!"
"Where am I now?"
Xu Ziyue became more and more anxious.
What you see in your eyes are towering trees.
I have long lost any sense of direction.
For a moment, I didn't know what to do.
While he was hesitating, he suddenly heard Qin Shaochen's voice coming from behind.
"Just stand where you are and don't go any further."
"I'll come to you right away."
Xu Ziyue was overjoyed when she heard this. She felt excited and turned around quickly.
But there are still tall trees behind him.
There is half a figure somewhere.
What made her even more unexpected was that two minutes later, Qin Shaochen walked out from another direction.
Just the opposite direction of the sound.
"Follow me!"
Qin Shaochen made a gesture to Xu Ziyue and led him through the woods.
The walking route is strange.
Keep going around and around.
Basically don't walk in a straight line.
Sometimes it seems that there is no road, but when I walk to the big tree, I see a path right in front of me.
Just like this, I wandered around in the woods and returned to my original place after a while.
Xu Ziyue looked at the dark hole on the ground not far away and couldn't believe her eyes!
"Qin Shaochen, you actually dug a big hole?"
"Not a hole."
Qin Shaochen nodded.
"It's an authentic one."
"typical?"
"Of course. How else would we get out of here."
After saying that, he jumped down from the hole and went straight in.
Xu Ziyue hesitated for a moment.
Finally, he had to bite the bullet and crawl into the hole.
After crawling for more than a hundred feet, he emerged from the ground covered in dust.
But he saw Qin Shaochen already standing not far away, with a smirk on his face.
Xu Ziyue couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
But it's not good to really get angry.
He quickly used a water flow technique to comb himself clean.
Then, just pretend like nothing is wrong.
The two discussed what to do next.
In the end, it was determined that the City Lord’s Mansion could no longer be trusted.
It was Xu Ziyue who rushed directly back to the Demon Slayer Alliance branch to report the situation and seek assistance.
Qin Shaochen stayed in Shuofeng City and watched the changes.
Secretly observe whether the city lord's mansion has colluded with the demon clan and rebelled against the human race.
After making a rough plan, Xu Ziyue took out the moon boat and prepared to set off.
Unexpectedly, the Zhuyue boat only rose to a height of a few feet before it began to shake.
Apparently this is because this place is still on the edge of the forest and is still affected by the flight ban.
It can be seen that the large formation in the forest covers a very wide area.
Xu Ziyue had no choice but to accept the flying boat.
He mounted his horse and ran two miles further.
I took out the flying boat and tried it again, and finally it could be used normally.
Finally got rid of the impact of the flight ban.
"It seems that the reason why the city lord insists on riding on horseback is because he is worried that we will find that there is a flight restriction over the forest."
Xu Ziyue lowered the flying boat and walked in, but did not take off immediately.
"Judging from this incident, City Lord Cao has probably rebelled."
"Qin Shaochen, it might be more dangerous for you to stay, so why don't you come back to the branch with me?"
Qin Shaochen shook his head firmly.
Declined politely.
Xu Ziyue had no choice but to repeatedly tell Qin Shaochen to be careful.
Then he drove the flying boat and quickly disappeared into the horizon.
After Xu Ziyue left, Qin Shaochen did not waste time and immediately returned to the cave outside the forest and went back in.
Since he knew that the maze in the forest would not be difficult for him, he certainly had to investigate it carefully.
Now it seems that there should be many second-grade demon hunters trapped in this forest.
Maybe there are still many second-grade monsters in it.
In short, the situation is very complicated.
It is not clear what happened in the forest?
However, the more chaotic the situation is, the more opportunities there are.
Once you seize the opportunity, you will definitely benefit.
After returning to the forest, he walked several miles again.
But walking around, all he saw were tall trees.
Not only did he not see a person, he didn't even see a few animals.
"This is not a solution!"
Qin Shaochen was also a little helpless in the face of this situation.
I can only blame myself for not having enough formation skills. Facing such a large formation, I am completely helpless.
"Why not go back underground and use the tunnels to find people."
"Although that method is a bit stupid, it is worse than wandering around here and making no progress at all."
"It's just a little tiring."
"If you dig a few more tunnels, you can always find some clues."
Thinking of this, Qin Shaochen was refreshed and immediately started to use the Nine Transformations of the Divine Dragon.
This time, he not only changed his hands and feet, but also his tail.
His tail has now grown to nine feet.
Although it still can't let him fly into the sky.
But with a tail, the coordination of the whole body is much better.
The movement of the power around the body is more smooth and smooth.
Even if it is used for digging holes, it should be much easier.
After the body transformation was completed, he didn't waste any more time. He immediately lowered his body, waved his claws wildly, and dug with all his strength.
The mud was flying, almost covering the sky and the sun.
In just a few seconds, his figure had disappeared.
Hidden in a big hole!
