Because he didn't use his Divine Sense to probe, Du Feng didn't know the other party's Cultivation Level. But to be able to take on the task of landing on the island, one had to be at least at the first level of the Golden Immortal Stage. Judging from the size of their team, these people were probably not as simple as the first level of the Golden Immortal Stage.
The four men and four women in front walked straight ahead, while the eight people behind them were much more vigilant. They fanned out and kept observing their surroundings. Their right hand was on the hilt of their saber, ready to draw it and attack at any time.
Du Feng lay motionless in the water, waiting for the 16 people to go further away before going ashore. He looked into the water when he had nothing to do, and what he saw scared him so much that he shivered. Because not far away from him, there was also a person lying motionless in the water, observing the 16 people on the shore.
Noticing that Du Feng was looking at him, that person made a shushing gesture, meaning not to make any noise, lest the people on the shore hear.
Du Feng nodded lightly, then continued to observe the 16 people on the shore. It seemed that he was not the only one who liked to act alone and sneak into the water. When he turned his face again, he was shocked again, because the person just now had disappeared.
Thinking about it, because he couldn't expand his Divine Sense at this time, and that person had restrained his aura and swam silently, he might have inadvertently left.
Du Feng didn't care too much, and seeing that the 16 people had gone far away, he quietly went ashore. After coming ashore, he could finally breathe freely. In order not to expose himself in the water just now, he didn't use the Water Repelling Art or the True Essence Shield, almost like a mermaid.
Since this was the island where the River Demons lived, they should be on guard. After all, they were River Demons that had taken human form, so their intelligence wouldn't be too low. But Du Feng didn't see any defensive measures from the shore to the shore. Not to mention things like the Apocalypse Cannon, he didn't even see the city walls or the city-guarding crossbows.
There were only bare riverbanks, and further in, there were weeds, and then there were low shrubs. When he walked into the forest, he heard the sound of water breaking behind him. He hurriedly made his way into the depths of the forest and hid in the crown of a tree. Then, he squatted on a branch and looked out.
Another boat was rowed over from the river. Du Feng counted the number of people on the boat. These 16 people wore different clothes, and there was a mix of men and women. Thirteen male martial artists and three female martial artists. One of the male martial artists was a white-bearded old man.
Du Feng had never seen these people before, which meant that they were not in the same batch as him. Because his mechanical dragon was too fast, it probably caught up with the previous two batches of martial artists who were doing the mission. If he continued to wait, he should be able to meet the batch of martial artists who registered at the same time as him.
Of course, Du Feng wouldn't just stand there and wait like an idiot. Taking advantage of the fact that the group of people had yet to reach the shore, he used his movement technique to leap between the trees. In order to better conceal himself, he purposely changed his white clothes and wore a dark green one. In this way, it was close to the color of the dark forest. Even when he disappeared into the distance, the group of martial artists who came ashore did not notice him.
Eh, strange!
Du Feng discovered one thing. He had dashed forward for so long. Logically speaking, he should be able to catch up with the group in front. But when he looked into the distance, he actually did not see that group of people. Even if they were killed, there should at least be some corpses left. Even if there were no corpses, there should at least be some traces of a fight.
Looks like I have to be careful. River Demon Island is not as simple as I thought. That group of martial artists in front, if they were not killed, they might have fallen into the array formation. That's why I can't find them. Since they fell into the array formation, then what about me?
Du Feng suddenly realized that he seemed to have been isolated too. He looked into the distance. Indeed, other than a dense forest, he could not see anything. Be it the previous batch of martial artists or the later batch of martial artists, there was no trace of them. Not only that, the way back for the two of them had also changed.
Just now, they clearly came from the direction of the river. But looking back now, they could not see the Sky River at all, nor could they see the way back. All around were lush trees. It felt like falling into a sea of trees. In theory, this was just an island. It should be surrounded by river water on all sides.
But now that they looked out, they could not see the river water in all directions. The surroundings were covered in mist, and it was hazy. Other than the dark green trees, they could not see anything. Looking down from the canopy, they could not even see the weeds on the ground clearly. They could only see a hazy green.
Du Feng was an array formation master after all. If he really fell into someone else's array formation, how could he not know it at all? He calmed down and observed carefully. He did not find any traces of array flags or array discs. This was strange. If they wanted to set up an array formation, they definitely could not do without array flags and array discs. At the very least, they would have to get some stone pillars engraved with runes. Otherwise, they would not be able to set up an array formation, let alone such a large-scale array formation.
Got it! Originally, Du Feng was about to give up. He suddenly realized something. The trees on the island grew in a regular pattern. That's right. This was not an array set up by someone. It was a natural super array formation. The trees here all grew according to a certain pattern, and then became a natural super array formation.
It could be said that the entire island, except for the bare part of the riverbank and the beach, as long as one stepped into the area with trees, it was equivalent to being included in the array formation. Combined with the Heavenly Xuan Water on the periphery, it could be said to be a natural barrier.
Tsk tsk tsk … No wonder the river monster chose to hide here. Large human ships could not get close, they could not fly in the sky, and there was a natural array formation to protect them. There was simply no better choice than this.
Waves of martial artists came to the island in small boats. It felt like they were not here to do a task, but to die.
For a moment, Du Feng had an idea. It did not matter even if he did not want the points. It was more important to save his life. However, even if he wanted to retreat, there was no way out, because he could not find the way back to the shore.
In theory, this was an island. If he kept walking in the same direction, he would always be able to walk to the water. But in this natural array formation, he thought he was walking in a straight line, but in fact, he had been walking in circles. As an array formation master, Du Feng knew this very well. Unless he found the array formation and figured out the array formation here, he would never be able to get out.
