The droplets of blood shot onto the talisman like water droplets falling into a drought, instantly disappearing.
The talisman suddenly emitted a bright red light, as if the sun had fallen in front of them.
Everyone's eyes hurt, and they involuntarily closed them. When they opened their eyes again, the talisman had already disappeared. The red light spread and formed a huge sphere that enveloped everyone.
The sphere was about a hundred meters in diameter, and it seemed to be fighting against an invisible force. The red light kept flashing as if it had a life of its own. Everyone was on tenterhooks.
It seemed like it would not be easy to break this formation. The red light was fighting against the power of the formation. If the red light was defeated, the formation would not be broken.
"Pop!" There was a strange sound, and everyone felt their vision clear up. Instantly, the scenery changed, and they returned to the pine forest.
They immediately sighed in relief, knowing that the formation had been broken.
"Senior Brother Lu, let's go!"
Lu Wuji shook his head.
No matter how Chu Li knew that they would be here and set up an ambush, this was currently the safest place. The formation had just been broken, so it was impossible for him to set up another formation.
He glanced at everyone and saw that their faces were gloomy and somewhat shocked. They wanted to run away.
"Haha." Lu Wuji laughed and shook his head. "Formation or not, everything is useless against the Formation Breaking Talisman. If you have the guts, set up another formation!"
Setting up a formation could not be done in one go. It needed some time, and even the simplest formation would take half a day to set up.
Lu Wuji knew that their morale was low, so he needed to boost everyone's courage.
The place where they were at must have been set up beforehand, waiting for them to come in. It was scary to think about it.
First of all, they did not sense any danger, which meant that there was a treasure that blinded their instincts. Moreover, how could they coincidentally come here? Chu Li had set up a formation beforehand, so he could not have predicted that they would come here to rest, could he?
They would never have a traitor, so how did he do it?
This was the scariest part.
"Hehe." Chu Li's laughter came from all directions again. He laughed loudly. "I'd like to see how many Formation Breaking Talismans you have!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the scenery in front of everyone changed again. It was as if they were in a sea of bamboos. The surrounding bamboos swayed gently, and when a gust of wind blew, it was like a green sea.
As far as the eye could see, there was no end to it. No one knew where to go or when they would be able to walk out of it.
"Surnamed Chu, you're just relying on formations!" Someone shouted.
Chu Li's voice rang out faintly, as if it was coming from the clouds. "We'll talk after you've broken this formation."
"Chu Li, don't be too pleased with yourself." Lu Wuji saw the gloomy expressions on everyone's faces and knew that they had lost their spirit. He took a deep breath and loudly said, "Did you think that we were the only ones who came here? To tell you the truth, this time, we've split into three groups to take care of the House of High Dukes. You've only stopped one of our groups. I'm guessing that by now, they've already rushed into the House of High Dukes. There aren't many people left in the House of High Dukes! "
Chu Li's voice was filled with joy. "Thank you for telling me, but you don't have to worry about this. They're trapped in the formation just like you guys!"
"Impossible!" Lu Wuji shouted.
Chu Li laughed out loud. "One of them was you guys, another one was a yellow-faced shorty, and the third one was a fat old man, right?"
Lu Wuji's expression was as dark as steel.
He took a deep breath and said nothing else.
The people around them did not look too good either. They knew that Chu Li was right. Since he knew about it and was still calm, the other two groups might really be intercepted by him.
Chu Li said, "It's a pity that they didn't have a Formation Breaking Talisman. They couldn't even break a single formation. What a pity, we've prepared three sets of formations for them!"
"Three sets!" Lu Wuji laughed coldly. "You're bragging too much!"
Chu Li laughed out loud. "What's there to brag about? You'll know once you try it. It's a pity that you don't have a Formation Breaking Talisman anymore, so you can only stay here obediently."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Wuji heard a muffled groan.
He turned his head and saw a figure flashing past like a ghost. His two junior brothers had already fallen to the ground, their eyes wide open as they held onto their throats.
"Junior Brother Leng! Junior Brother Huang! "Lu Wuji shouted angrily." Surnamed Chu, you're despicable! "
Chu Li's laughter could be heard from all directions. "It's not despicable for the Sword Moon Sect to sneak up on the High Duke's Public House, but it's despicable for me to sneak up on you. Is reason on your side? Do you think that once the Sword Moon Sect shows up, everyone will submit to you and wait for you to kill them? How naive! "
As soon as he finished speaking, he flashed again and turned into a phantom that swept past everyone's eyes. Another two middle-aged men fell to the ground.
Being inside the formation, they seemed to have become blind and deaf. Their amazing intuition as Grandmasters had completely disappeared, and they could not sense danger approaching them. By the time they realized that a flying knife was already on their bodies, it was useless even if they had treasured clothing to protect their bodies.
In the blink of an eye, Chu Li appeared again.
"Everyone, back to back, defend with all your might!" Lu Wuji shouted.
They hurriedly retreated, but they realized that they were the only ones left. It was empty, and there was no one else around. Instantly, they panicked and shouted loudly.
Unfortunately, their voices could not be heard by others. They were separated from each other. Even if some of the smarter ones remembered their previous positions and slowly retreated, there was still no one around.
Chu Li's shadow drifted past and took care of them one by one.
Lu Wuji's martial arts was the strongest among them, and his reflexes were the sharpest. When the flying knife was about to hit his body, he reacted and raised his hand to block his throat. However, he did not expect the flying knife to hit his forehead instead of his throat.
The flying knife pierced through his sturdy forehead and came out from the back of his head. Chu Li sighed in relief. This knife was not an energy blade, so it was the most powerful one.
This Lu Wuji was quite difficult to deal with, but he was still a distance away from him. With the help of the formation, it was easy to defeat them one by one.
Among the three groups, this group was the weakest, so they were completely annihilated. As for the other two groups, about ten of them managed to escape, so only about half of them were killed.
The other two groups were even more cunning. At first, they did not use Formation Destruction Talismans, but at the last moment, they used Formation Destruction Talismans to break out of the encirclement in one go.
A white shadow suddenly flashed, and Xiao Qi suddenly appeared.
Her clothes were as white as snow, and her face was as fair as jade. Her bright eyes looked around, and when she saw the corpses on the ground, she shook her head and looked up at Chu Li. Then, she sighed and said, "We've become enemies!"
Chu Li was full of smiles.
The power of the perfected tenth level of the Heavenly Heart Technique was indeed amazing. With the addition of the Star Stone, he accurately predicted their movements and set up a formation in advance to wait for the three groups.
"You have to be careful. This time, they'll be anxious and determined to kill you. I'm afraid they'll send their top men," Xiao Qi said.
Chu Li smiled and said, "Don't worry, their top men won't dare to act recklessly. If they really break into the Ji Dynasty, the Tempest Temple's Enlightened Masters won't just stand by and watch!"
"That's good." Xiao Qi nodded.
She knew that Chu Li's current cultivation level was shocking. Not only was he the top young disciple, but he was also one of the top Grandmasters.
The fact that he was able to escape from the Sword Moon Sect in one piece was proof of that. Since the Sword Moon Sect's top master was in isolated cultivation, he was lucky enough to escape, which showed how powerful he was.
"Heh!" Suddenly, a cold laugh was heard.
Two figures slowly appeared. They were both white-haired elders with a ruddy complexion. Their eyes were like lightning, and their cultivation level was slightly higher than his.
