The anger in his brows and eyes had not subsided. He looked at Yu Shu, paused, and said, "Did you find anything about that matter?"
The thing Huo Yan was talking about was the seal on Ji Jue.
Yu Shu pursed her lips and said slowly, "When I was in the secret realm, I met a Xuanwu beast. It said it was several formations mixed together."
Huo Yan frowned. Indeed, this formation was indeed not an ordinary formation. He looked through all the formation books but could not find this formation.
Huo Yan's heart sank a little, and suddenly, Yu Shu's cold and crisp voice rang out again.
"However," Yu Shu blinked her eyes and continued softly, "Xuanwu Beast said that the inheritance of the Soul-Eating Beast clan is [formation]. If we can find the Soul-Eating Beast, we may be able to find a way to break the formation."
A glint flashed across Huo Yan's eyes, and he murmured, "Soul-eating beast?"
The Soul-Eating Beast Clan is good at setting up formations, and he knows this. The fate of the Soul-Eating Beast Clan is roughly similar to that of the Fire-Gold Rock Bird.
They Fire Gold Rock Birds are good at alchemy methods, but they themselves are also excellent materials for elixirs, so they have been persecuted by cultivators.
Demonic beasts like the Soul-Eating Beast that can form formations will be sought after by them, and the Soul-Eating Beast is also good at hunting for treasures. Their blood can refine spiritual weapons. There is no weapon refiner who does not want a Soul-Eating Beast.
.
In this environment, the Soul Devouring Beast clan was even worse than the Fire Gold Rock Bird. They hid early and have not been seen for hundreds of years.
Huo Yan couldn't help but let out a long sigh. Finding a soul-devouring beast would probably be more difficult than unlocking the formation that trapped Ji Jue.
Huo Yan's sigh reached Yu Shu's ears. Looking at Huo Yan's frowning eyebrows, she could probably guess something.
She hesitated and said, "Isn't it difficult?"
Huo Yan lowered his eyes and his expression became gloomy, "The soul-devouring beast has not shown its traces for hundreds of years. Maybe it has been exterminated."
"Even if they have not been exterminated, it is difficult to find traces of them."
Huo Yan's straightforward words made Yu Shu's heart freeze.
This time, both of them were silent.
"Then what should we do?" Yu Shu frowned, her eyes filled with disappointment.
Do we want Ji Jue to be trapped here forever?
Huo Yan's eyebrows were tinged with sadness, "There will always be a way."
He seemed to have remembered something, "Since this formation was improved by the formation master, maybe some formation master will know about it?"
"We can grab the best formation master and ask him."
Huo Yan spoke very seriously, his eyes lit up for a moment.
"This..." Yu Shu listened and hesitated for a few seconds, but then thought about it again, "This is also a way!"
It is said that three cobblers are equal to one Zhuge Liang. Although there are only two of them, they can still equal one Zhuge Liang!
"Right." Huo Yan raised his eyebrows proudly.
He cheered up again and took Yu Shu to start making plans again.
Little did they know that the appearance of the two of them had already fallen into the eyes of Ji Jue, who was standing far away.
He looked at the two muttering people and couldn't help but complain, "What a bad idea is this."
The best formation master in the entire Cultivation Continent, how can I catch him just by catching him?
He sighed and couldn't help but shook his head.
Ji Jue walked over slowly and interrupted the two people who were conspiring quietly, saying, "Huo Yan."
A low voice sounded, and Yu Shu and Huo Yan looked at each other with shock in their eyes.
Both of them turned around with a guilty conscience. Huo Yan's eyes wandered. He touched his nose and then quickly said, "Well, um, I won't disturb you two chatting. I, I'll leave first.
Already."
Huo Yan left resolutely under Yu Shu's condemning eyes.
Before leaving, he gave Yu Shu a look to tell her not to spill the beans.
Ji Jue took Huo Yan's small movements into his eyes. He glanced at Huo Yan lightly and saw that Huo Yan immediately shuddered and ran away like a child.
Only Yu Shu and Ji Jue were left in place.
Yu Shu looked at Ji Jue and couldn't help feeling weak in her heart. She looked away and whispered, "Master..."
"Is the injury healed?" Ji Jue looked at Yu Shu with his eyes half closed, and asked softly.
Yu Shu nodded, "I'm fine now, thank you Master."
Ji Jue didn't reply immediately. He looked at Yu Shu carefully. After a moment, he suddenly said, "Yushu, do you have anything to ask me?"
This sentence left Yu Shu confused. She raised her head and met Ji Jue's rippling eyes, and was dazzled for a moment.
Her eyes flickered, her expression was a bit unnatural, the corners of her mouth raised in a curve, and she said with an awkward smile, "What do I want to ask?"
She pretended to be stupid on the face, but in her heart she began to speculate, did Ji Jue just hear what she and Huo Yan said?
Yu Shu was in a state of confusion when she suddenly heard Ji Jue say, "Okay, then I have something to tell you."
There was a bit of surprise in Yu Shu's eyes. She looked at Ji Jue's serious expression and felt panicked again.
Ji Jue looked at Yu Shu with unclear meaning in his eyes. He opened his thin lips and spoke slowly.
"I know that you and Huo Yan are looking for a way to break the formation."
Yu Shu was shocked when she heard Ji Jue's words. She was about to explain, but Ji Jue kept talking to herself.
"Yushu, stop looking, don't keep looking."
Yu Shu felt as if someone had poured a basin of cold water over her head, cooling her heart to the core.
The hands hanging by her side were quietly clenched into fists. Yu Shu's face turned a little pale, her lips trembled, and she asked in confusion, "Why..."
Ji Jue looked forward, with a faint light in his eyes, as if he was recalling something, "I was trapped by the formation voluntarily."
Yu Shu bit her lower lip lightly, frowning, her eyes full of confusion, "I don't understand."
Ji Jue's eyebrows were furrowed, as if he was struggling with something.
After a long while, he said, "Do you remember what you saw in the retrospective mirror?"
Yu Shu raised her eyes and looked at Ji Jue. A few glimmers of light flashed in her eyes, as if she was keenly aware of something. She said with a trembling voice, "So... it's really the same as nine hundred years ago."
Is it related to that incident?"
Ji Jue exhaled, his voice slowed down, and he said in a deep voice, "Nine hundred years ago, Demon Lord Le Zhenggeng broke through and joined forces with demon cultivators to attack various sects."
"The righteous path failed, and they were defeated continuously. Many small sects were merged into the Demonic Sect. For a time, the Demonic Sect's power increased sharply, and its momentum was so strong that no one could stop it."
"The demonic skills practiced by Demon Lord Le Zhenggeng are even more powerful. Several encirclement and suppression campaigns have all failed."
"Most of the entire continent of cultivating immortals is controlled by the Demon Cult, and the flames of war have even spread to the mortal world."
The sect was washed with blood, severed limbs could be seen everywhere, corpses stacked on top of each other, and the strong smell of blood lingered in the air for a long time.
Those who encounter the Demon Cult can only die or be surrendered.
Ji Jue's brows furrowed into the word "Chuan". Thinking of the scene nine hundred years ago, his expression was a little painful, and he spat out a few words.
"Corpse strewn across the land, hell on earth." This chapter has been completed!
