The female ability user, who was controlling the two fire dragons to attack Jin Shi, instantly felt a bone-piercing chill spreading from the ground up along her legs. Just as she lowered her head, her eyes widened in disbelief.
Ice?
Her legs were actually sealed by ice? Moreover, the ice was spreading to her upper body at a terrifying speed? How was this possible? Weren't the enemies cultivators? Were there also ability users among cultivators?
Puff …
A sword light flashed past, and the female ability user's neck was instantly severed. Her vision kept tumbling, and she saw her own headless body spurting blood.
Massacre!
It was also a massacre!
Apart from Si Wu and his three other companions, more than a dozen ability users were all killed in just two or three minutes. Among Tan Xiu's men, only Jin Shi had a cut on his arm, while the others didn't even lose a few hairs.
"What the hell is this place?"
Si Wu had already discovered the strange situation in the Four Symbols Array. He desperately launched attacks and even triggered lightning to wreak havoc, but there was still no way to destroy everything. What he could find was that his men were constantly being killed, while he could only helplessly resist the attacks of others, powerless to do anything.
"Big Brother Si Wu, activate the Blood Curse."
The cute girl staggered to avoid the attacks of several flying swords and took out a paper talisman from her bosom.
In an instant.
Si Wu and the other two also took out paper talismans. When the four of them used their abilities to activate the paper talismans, a rudimentary aura suddenly burst out and a strong bloody light fused together to form a bloody storm.
At the eye of the array.
Tan Xiu's pupils suddenly shrank. After sensing the violent aura, he instantly used the Four Symbols Array to roll up Mo Awu and the others. As his body frantically retreated, everyone had already withdrawn from the Four Symbols Array. Even when Tan Xiu retreated, he suddenly felt the surroundings of the Four Symbols Array crack like glass, and then it was shattered by the impact of the bloody storm.
"Puff …"
Four figures rushed out of the broken Four Symbols Array, but at the moment they sprinted, they simultaneously opened their mouths and spurted out a bloody mist. Immediately after, the four of them looked like frosted eggplants, their spirits dispirited as they fell to the ground 100 meters away.
Tan Xiu looked at the place where the Four Beasts Formation was set up with lingering fear. A huge pit with a radius of a hundred meters had been blasted out, and it was more than two meters deep. He couldn't imagine how many of Mo Awu and the others would have survived if he had retreated a few seconds later.
"This is the power of the Blood Curse?"
The killing intent in Tan Xiu's eyes intensified. Like lightning, his figure rushed toward Si Wu and the other three. Just as the four of them jumped up, he brandished his long sword and ruthlessly slashed at them.
"Boom …"
The four of them hastily set up their defenses, but they crumbled under the might of the sword. Moreover, the four of them were sent flying tens of meters away by the monstrous Sword Qi before crashing into the ground once again.
This time.
Except for Si Wu, who was struggling to get up, the other three had already fainted.
"Pu! Puff! Pfft!
The sword light flashed, and the heads of the three fainted paranormals were separated from their bodies. Si Wu, on the other hand, was silently slashed into two halves by Feng Yang, who drilled out of the soil.
The dust had settled.
Tan Xiu looked at the aftermath of the battle, as well as Mo Awu and the others who were sprinting over. He nodded with satisfaction and said, "We didn't even figure out the identity of this group of enemies, yet we killed them all. That's really interesting. Feng Yang, stay here. The rest will immediately clean up the mess. "
Feng Yang came to Tan Xiu's side. He rolled his eyes and whispered, "Do you want to set up a trap, Boss?"
"What do you mean?" asked Tan Xiu, confused.
"Let's kill all these people. There must be someone more powerful behind them," said Feng Yang. "If we set up the scene, we can make them mistakenly think that it's the Stygian Club's people who did it. Perhaps, a war will break out between these two forces. "
Tan Xiu raised his hand to touch his chin and thoughtfully said, "You mean … framing them?"
"That's right, framing them." Feng Yang nodded. "The Stygian Club can't get along with us, so we'll give them one more enemy. The people we killed were all Adepts. If I also use my ability and leave some clues, then we'll throw the vampires' corpses there. I believe the people behind these ability users will definitely target the Stygian Club. "
Tan Xiu's eyes lit up as he smilingly said, "It seems that my men are indeed talented! Feng Yang, your suggestion is good. Let's do it like that. "
"Do you have any instructions for me to stay here, Boss?" asked Feng Yang.
"Let's not talk about it for the time being." Tan Xiu waved his hand and said, "You and the others will arrange it first. We'll enter the mountain half an hour later."
Half an hour later.
After everything was arranged properly, Tan Xiu led everyone to the place shrouded in white mist. He released his spiritual sense, yet it couldn't penetrate the white mist. It was as though the white mist in front of him had a viscous substance that strongly obstructed his spiritual sense.
"Boss, are you going to break this array?"
Mo Awu, who was at Tan Xiu's side, asked with a curious expression.
Tan Xiu shook his head and took out a piece of paper from his interspatial ring. He quickly engraved the runes on it and then folded it into a kite. The moment he loosened it, the kite seemed to have its own intelligence and flew into the white mist. Tan Xiu then led Mo Awu and the others to follow it and entered the white mist.
"This is a guide kite. As cultivators, you need some spells and divine abilities. You have cultivation, but you don't have the ability to cast spells and divine abilities. You'll be at a disadvantage once you encounter other cultivators in the future. I'll slowly teach you some spells and divine abilities when we return to Demonic City. "
"Understood!"
Mo Awu and the others looked happy and respectfully replied.
It was a guide kite.
It was a small spell that was easy to cast. It didn't have much effect, but it could move forward in a straight line according to the master's intention. If one followed it into the mist, they wouldn't lose their way inside. As their footsteps continued to move forward, they went about 100 meters deep inside and couldn't even see their own fingers. Furthermore, a special air pressure was blocking them, preventing Jin Shi and the others from going any further.
"The pressure is too much, Boss. We can't bear it," said Jin Shi in a deep voice.
With his keen eyesight, Tang Xiu was able to clearly see everyone's faces. He found that their faces were pale and obviously strenuous. He immediately halted his pace and released a huge aura from his body to contend with the pressure.
Puff …
Tan Xiu's body trembled and he retreated a dozen steps in an instant before he staggered and stabilized his body. However, he still coughed up a mouthful of blood. Just as he released his aura to contend with the pressure, a vast ocean-like power whizzed over and instantly crushed his aura.
"Are you alright, Boss?"
Mo Awu and the others retreated one after another and surrounded Tan Xiu with worried faces.
Tan Xiu raised his hand to wipe off the blood on his lips. He shook his head and forced a smile. "I'm fine. I was just careless just now. I didn't expect this array to be so powerful that the pressure it emits can injure me. However, I've figured out the principle of this array, so it'll be easy to crack it. "
"You can crack it?" asked Mo Awu with a pleasantly surprised expression.
"I can crack it, but I can't," said Tan Xiu. "We don't know what's inside this array, so there may be some unexpected changes if we crack it rashly. Therefore, you must follow behind me and pay attention to my footsteps. You can avoid the pressure in the white mist as long as you follow my footsteps. "
Ye Shisan suddenly asked, "We haven't seen you comprehend the mysteries of this array, Boss. How did you comprehend it?"
Tan Xiu glanced at him and smilingly asked, "Do you want to learn something about arrays?"
"Yeah, I do," said Ye Shisan with a dry smile.
"I'll write a book about arrays after we return to Shanghai." Tan Xiu nodded and said, "I'll teach you some things when the time comes. As a matter of fact, I've been secretly observing the situation inside and analyzing the mysteries of this array all the way here. I just resisted the pressure in the white mist and peeked at the last part that I couldn't understand. The result was out of my expectation and I got a bit injured. However, I've already peeked at the final profundity, so I can crack it if I want to. "
Ye Shisan suddenly understood and said with admiration, "You're really amazing, Boss."
"Don't flatter me, Boss." Tan Xiu smilingly scolded him. "You may become an array grandmaster as long as you work hard in the future."
"Yeah!"
Ye Shisan nodded with expectation.
Tan Xiu then retrieved the kite again. Under its lead, the group passed through the white mist for more than 600 meters and finally reached the foot of the mountain.
"It's so beautiful!"
Even these people who had killed people like scything flax couldn't help but be attracted by the beautiful scenery at first glance. The mist inside was very light, just like a fairyland with immortal energy lingering around it. The flowers were beautiful, the trees were full of vitality, the beasts were docile, and the beautiful scenery was hazy.
What surprised everyone the most was that there was a gurgling river flowing upstream toward the mountainside. This scene defied gravity, as well as the colorful fishes that jumped out of the water from time to time, was an eye-opener for everyone.
There were many antique and small bridges on the river, each of which had a different shape. Some were arched, some were straight, some were meandering, and some were even half-moon-shaped.
"Let's go up the mountain."
Tan Xiu strode forward and quickly walked up. When he crossed the bridge and stepped on the ground, an invisible force pressed down on him. Despite his formidable strength, he was still shaken by the pressure.
"Be careful. There's something strange going on."
Tan Xiu squinted his eyes and said without looking back. At the same time, he resolutely strode forward and walked inside again. With every step he took, he felt the pressure increase and each step was more strenuous than the previous one. Just like that, Tan Xiu led everyone forward.
