The grand formation here was a concealment grand formation and a defensive grand formation. The two grand formations were perfectly combined. It could be seen that the person who set up this grand formation had quite a high level of attainment in the Dao of Formations. He was more powerful than Xie Yunhan, but there was still a gap between him and Xie Yunhan.
Therefore, it was not difficult for Lu Ye to sneak into such an array.
At the place where the array flags were embedded, the spiritual power completely stopped flowing. Lu Ye raised his hand and put away the array flags. His figure flashed and rushed into the array.
After he left, without the interference of the array flags, the spiritual power on the light screen of the array began to flow slowly.
After entering the array, Lu Ye immediately hid his figure and looked around vigilantly.
There was no danger. Everything in this forbidden area was clear at a glance.
This was because this space was not too big.
In a radius of about twenty feet, there was a lone grave. In front of the grave, there was a stone tablet. Not far from the grave, there was an ancient and simple thing that was only a few feet tall. It looked like an altar.
This was the forbidden area?
Lu Ye frowned. Under the enhancement of the Insight Spirit Inscription, he did not see anything particularly noteworthy.
He strolled forward and walked to the stone tablet of the grave. Under the moonlight, the words on the stone tablet were imprinted in his eyes.
"Master, Lei Zhengyin's Tomb."
With only this line of words, Lei Zhengyin should be the name of the person buried in this grave. However, the word "master" inevitably made him think.
From what Xie Yunhan said before, this forbidden area had existed for at least a dozen years. The person in the grave must have died for a long time.
However, the tombstone looked very clean and there was not a speck of dust on it. There was not even a weed on the grave. It seemed that someone often came to pay their respects and clean the grave.
In the entire Fox Immortal Valley, the only one who could enter here was the fox demon.
Lu Ye's eyes flickered for a moment. He no longer paid attention to the grave and looked at the altar.
Lu Ye could tell at a glance that this altar was something that had been around for a long time. It was very simple and unadorned. Lu Ye walked up to the altar and looked around, only to see that the altar was covered in complicated lines. The entire surface of the altar seemed to be covered in a profound array. Lu Ye stared at it for a moment, but still couldn't figure out what this array was.
He more or less had some attainments in the Array Dao. No matter how complicated an array formation was, even if he had never come into contact with it, he would still be able to see some things.
He couldn't see anything. Either these complicated patterns weren't formations, or the profoundness of the things on them was completely beyond his understanding.
Looking carefully for a while, Lu Ye suddenly found that there was a groove in each of the four sides of the altar.
Lu Ye was no stranger to this item.
Generally speaking, these kinds of grooves needed to be filled with spirit stones, such as the Spirit Gathering Array in many sects.
Therefore, if he wanted to figure out what this altar was for, all he needed to do was to place some spirit stones in the groove.
Naturally, Lu Ye would not be so rash. If he were to do so, it was highly likely that he would alarm the cultivators within Immortal Fox Valley. When that happened, he would definitely be caught red-handed.
He could not help but feel a little disappointed.
The fox demon had designated this place as a forbidden area. He had thought that there was some incredible secret hidden here. Who would have thought that there was only a lone grave and an ancient altar. He had no way to determine what the altar was used for.
It was a wasted trip!
Just as he was about to leave, there was suddenly a strange movement. Lu Ye's expression changed and he immediately cast the concealment and aura concealing spirit inscriptions on himself. He stood on the altar and did not dare to move.
A seductive figure suddenly appeared in front of him. It was the fox demon.
Lu Ye secretly cursed his bad luck. He had seen that the tombstone was spotless and there was not even a blade of grass on the grave. He knew that people often came here to offer their condolences. Who would have thought that he would bump into it in the middle of the night?
Now that he was blocked, if not for the support of the spirit inscriptions, he would definitely have been exposed.
Under the moonlight, the fox demon quietly walked to the tombstone and looked down. Her face was slowly shrouded in sadness.
A moment later, there was a soft sobbing sound. Tears flowed down the corners of her eyes, leaving deep marks on her face. The fox demon threw herself on the tombstone and cried out sorrowfully. Her mouth was mumbling something.
Lu Ye only heard the words "Master", "Xian 'er" and "I'm so tired". As for the rest, he could not hear clearly.
He could not help but feel lucky. The fox demon was in a mournful mood at the moment, and she probably did not expect that someone in the Fox Immortal Valley would disobey her orders and come here in the middle of the night. Otherwise, at such a close distance, even if Lu Ye had cast the concealment and aura concealing spirit inscriptions on himself, it was not impossible for him to be discovered.
After crying for a long time, the fox demon raised her hand to wipe the corners of her eyes and carefully wiped the clean tombstone. She took a deep breath and her full chest rose high.
The sorrow on her face disappeared and was replaced by endless resentment and resentment. Even her originally gentle tone became extremely eerie. "Master, it won't take too long. In another month, I will be able to avenge you. This time, I will not fail!"
As if because she was too excited, when she said these words, her demon essence surged all over her body. Under the moonlight, a few hairy tails condensed from demon essence suddenly appeared behind her coquettish figure, swaying gracefully. From Lu Ye's point of view, this scene revealed a gloomy beauty.
She affectionately and reluctantly stared at the tombstone for a moment. When her mood and demon essence calmed down, she turned and left. She passed through the array that enveloped this place and disappeared.
Lu Ye stood quietly on the altar, motionless.
It was not until a full hour later that he softly called, "Yiyi!"
Yiyi's figure appeared. "It's safe outside."
Lu Ye nodded and immediately walked out.
When he came in from the outside, he had to use some means to sneak in, but when he left, there was no obstruction from the array.
After a while, he quietly returned to his pavilion.
Recalling the scene he had just seen, Lu Ye frowned. Previously, through the name of the Immortal Fox Valley, he had speculated that the lord's true form was a fox demon. Today, after seeing the strange phenomenon caused by the other party's demon essence rampaging, he was even more certain of his original speculation.
That was indeed a fox demon, but it was not an ordinary fox demon because the other party did not only have one tail, but a total of six!
Was it the Heavenly Fox Race? And it was a six-tailed Heavenly Fox!
No wonder it had the strange ability to control people's minds. If the other party was the Heavenly Fox Race, then it made sense.
Although the Heavenly Fox Race could not be compared to the Four Sacred Beasts, it was also a strange beast with innate Mystical Powers. According to Lu Ye's knowledge, Heavenly Foxes at the Cloud River Tier generally only had two or three tails. Thus, even if they had special innate Mystical Powers, they could not reach the level of controlling people's minds. At most, they could slightly confuse people's minds. As long as one's mind was strong enough, one could quickly escape.
A fox demon with six tails was an anomaly in the Heavenly Fox Race. Under normal circumstances, a six-tailed Heavenly Fox's strength was comparable to the Divine Ocean Tier!
Although this trip did not yield any practical gains in the Forbidden Land, they had coincidentally seen the true body of the fox demon, so it could not be considered as a complete loss.
However, this kind of gain was not particularly useful in the present situation.
"Lu Ye," Yiyi suddenly spoke up in the darkness. "That fox demon seems very pitiful."
"How is she pitiful?" Lu Ye asked in exasperation. "The pitiful ones are the cultivators who have been trapped here. Their minds have been controlled by her, and they are dead set on following her."
"Her master is dead." Yiyi's eyes were red. "She wants to avenge her master."
Lu Ye turned to look at her, only to feel that this little girl's emotions were too sensitive. The fox demon's master had been dead for at least a dozen years, so what was she crying for?
Yiyi wrinkled her nose, and said, "If you also die one day, Hu Po and I will definitely think of a way to avenge you!"
Lu Ye could not help but laugh. "Hu Po and I have formed a Life Origin Technique. If I die, Hu Po will also be finished, and you will also be finished. What's there to avenge? Everyone will go to the Yellow Springs together, and the journey will not be lonely."
Yiyi's cheeks puffed up. "Anyway, that fox demon is so pitiful."
After saying that, she stomped her feet and plunged into Hu Po's body, unwilling to pay any attention to Lu Ye.
Lu Ye was speechless. In the darkness, his eyes slowly sank.
The fox demon had said that she would be able to avenge her dead master within a month, but the question now was … who was the enemy?
Lu Ye originally did not know why the fox demon had gathered so many cultivators, but now it seemed that the situation was very clear.
She had always been thinking of ways to avenge her master, but it was impossible to do so with her own strength, so she needed to gather cultivators who had entered the depths of Great Mang Mountains.
Moreover, so many years had passed, so the fox demon must have acted more than once. She must have acted before, but unfortunately, all of them failed. The deaths of the cultivators under her command must be related to this matter.
Right now, there were more than eighty cultivators in Fox Immortal Valley, and fifteen of them were at the Ninth Order. Besides Lu Ye and Li Baxian, the rest were all at the Sixth Order and above.
If such a force were to be brought out, even if they could not sweep through the Cloud River Battlefield, they could at least occupy a part of it and dominate it.
However, the fox demon had not acted yet. Either she was not confident, or she was waiting for an opportunity.
No matter which, her enemy's strength was not to be underestimated. Looking at the entire Cloud River Battlefield, there was only one possibility for her enemy to be so cautious!
Lu Ye hurriedly took out the map and checked the label on it. After a short while, his eyes fixed on a line of labels.
Overlord Monster Beast, Berserk Giant Ape!
Lu Ye's eyelids twitched.
If things were as he thought, then it would be troublesome.
He did not know how strong a Cloud River Overlord Monster Beast was.
However, he had experienced the strength of a Spirit Stream Overlord Monster Beast. It was a strength that completely exceeded the scope of the Spirit Stream Realm.
He himself was an overlord existence as a cultivator. It could be said that under the same realm, he was invincible.
The strength of Fox Immortal Valley was indeed extraordinary, but it was hard to say who would have the last laugh against an overlord Monster Beast.
One month … Lu Ye suddenly felt a headache coming on.
Should he try to knock Li Baxian out and directly take him away? However, not to mention whether he had a chance of succeeding, if he failed, he would definitely expose some of his things. At that time, no one would be able to escape.
Even if he really knocked Li Baxian out, the Soul Secret Technique would always be a hidden danger.
