Song Zhui laughed heartily. "Seeing is believing. Fellow Cultivator Lu is really interesting."
Born in Abyss Rainbow Hall, he was well-read. Although he didn't cultivate Array Dao, he more or less knew some basic things about Array Dao.
The few names that Lu Ye casually mentioned were all earth-shattering Arrays. They were definitely not something that a Cloud River Realm cultivator could arrange.
It was impossible for there to be such Arrays in the Spirit Land in front of them.
But whether there were other Arrays, it was unknown …
The other party had put on such an attitude of inviting them into a trap. Obviously, he had nothing to fear.
"Is it interesting?" Lu Ye lowered his eyes. "Then let me show you something more interesting!"
As he spoke, an array flag suddenly appeared in his hand and he waved it gently.
There was a loud bang, followed by flames soaring into the sky. Somewhere in the Spirit Land, along with the violent surge of Spirit Qi, a hidden figure suddenly appeared and was enveloped by the flames. He screamed miserably and quickly retreated.
It was a Ghost Cultivator who was trying to sneak into the Spirit Land. This Ghost Cultivator was only a Sixth Order Ghost Cultivator, so it was unknown where he got the courage to do such a thing. At this moment, he was enveloped by the Explosion Array and his entire body was covered in flames. It was not easy for him to get out of the range of the Explosion Array, but he directly fell to the ground, gasping for breath.
This sudden change shocked the group of Myriad Demon Ridge cultivators. They all lowered their heads and looked at the Ghost Cultivator who had fallen to the ground.
Before they could react, Lu Ye waved the array flag in his hand.
* Hong Hong Hong … *
Violent noises continuously rang out from various parts of the spiritual land. Streaks of fiery light rose and fell one after another. Every sound that rang out was accompanied by a cry of surprise or a scream of agony. Within every explosion array, there was the figure of a ghost cultivator.
In a short time, more than a dozen Explosion Arrays were activated. More than a dozen Ghost Cultivators hiding in the dark were exposed. They were either killed or injured.
The group of Myriad Demon Ridge cultivators were dumbfounded.
Although they knew that there would be Ghost Cultivators hiding in the dark, they didn't expect there to be so many of them! And this was just the exposed ones. What about those that weren't?
This group of Ghost Cultivators … were really incapable of doing anything right!
What made them even more shocked was how many Arrays Lu Yiye had set up in the Spirit Land. Those ghost cultivators were scattered all over the spiritual land, but they still could not avoid the fate of being injured by the formation.
Within this spiritual land, every step was filled with traps.
In the sky, Song Zhui frowned as he sized up the ghostly cultivators that had revealed themselves. Although he knew that with Endless Shadow's ability, he wouldn't be exposed so easily, he was still a little worried. He swept his gaze over the dozen ghostly cultivators and didn't find any trace of Endless Shadow. Only then did he relax a little.
Somewhere in the Spiritual Land, Ying Wuji was hiding in the shadows, slowly approaching Lu Ye's location. He was silent, not retreating even when his dozen or so companions were exposed.
As an outstanding ghost cultivator, he naturally had some knowledge of the Way of Formations, especially the Way of Breaking Formations. This was because there were many times when ghost cultivators needed to sneak into some Formations to kill their targets.
There was a saying in the cultivation world of the Nine Prefectures that a ghost cultivator who did not understand the Dao of Arrays was not a qualified ghost cultivator!
In the Spirit Stream Tier and Cloud River Tier, Ghost Cultivators didn't have high requirements for the Dao of Formations. However, as their cultivation level increased, Ghost Cultivators also had higher requirements for the Dao of Formations.
This led to a bizarre phenomenon in the cultivation world of the Nine Prefectures. Some people appeared to be Array Masters on the surface, but were actually ghost cultivators who were proficient in concealment and assassination …
In terms of attainments in the Dao of Formations, Ying Wuji was inferior to Lu Ye, but he was different from those stupid ghost cultivators. He could more or less see some traces of Formations, so along the way, he didn't touch any Formations at all. He didn't even step into the range of a Formation.
"Is it beautiful?" Lu Ye put down the Formation Flag in his hand.
Song Zhui took a deep breath and praised, "I've long heard that Fellow Daoist Lu has extremely high attainments in the Dao of Formations. Now that I've seen it, it's really extraordinary. This Song admires you!"
He had easily forced out the traces of more than a dozen ghostly cultivators. Under such a deterrent, the other ghost cultivators hiding in the dark wouldn't dare to act rashly.
So, if he wanted to succeed, he would have to rely on Ying Wuji!
Although the current situation was unexpected, it was what Song Zhui wanted to see. He didn't need to do too much. He only needed to attract Lu Ye's attention here and create an opportunity for Ying Wuji to make a move.
Once Ying Wuji made a move, Lu Yiye would die without a doubt and the purpose of this trip would be achieved.
Thinking of this, he slowly shook his head, "But Fellow Daoist Lu, forgive me for saying too much, but this is meaningless. Today, hundreds of Fellow Daoists from my Myriad Devil Ridge have gathered here. I'm sure Fellow Daoist Lu also understands why. Under such circumstances, does Fellow Daoist Lu think you still have a chance of survival?"
"It looks like I'm dead for sure?"
Song Zhui said, "Does Fellow Daoist Lu still have some unrealistic fantasies? Naturally, even ants want to live, let alone cultivators like us. It's reasonable that Fellow Daoist Lu doesn't want to accept his fate, but is Fellow Daoist Lu willing to implicate others because of his own matters? "
Lu Ye narrowed his eyes slightly.
Song Zhui continued, "No matter how many Formations Fellow Daoist Lu has laid down in this Spiritual Land, since the cultivators of my Myriad Devil Ridge have come here today, they won't return empty-handed! But if we force it, I'm afraid both of us will suffer losses. The biggest possibility is that we will pay a certain price and your side will be completely wiped out! "He raised his eyebrows," Fellow Daoist Lu, how about I make a deal with you? "
The corners of Lu Ye's mouth suddenly curled up, revealing a trace of a smile, "What a coincidence, I also want to make a deal with you."
Song Zhui was surprised, "Oh? What kind of deal does Fellow Daoist Lu want to make? Why don't you tell me? "
"Tell me yours first."
Song Zhui didn't beat around the bush and said bluntly, "As I said just now, if there is a conflict, both of us will have to pay the price. How about Fellow Daoist Lu just surrender?"
"Are you still asleep?"
Song Zhui said, "As long as Fellow Daoist Lu is willing to surrender, I can make the decision to let the three companions behind you leave this place safely. If Fellow Daoist Lu doesn't trust me, I can make a heavenly oath!"
"So that's how it is!" Lu Ye understood what he meant, "A very sincere proposal."
Using himself to ensure the safety of Li Baxian and the others, if Lu Ye really didn't have any backup plans, this was indeed a proposal worth considering. Of course, Li Baxian and the others definitely wouldn't agree.
"Then what does Fellow Daoist Lu think?"
"I …" Lu Ye just opened his mouth when he suddenly turned his head to look to the side. The Spiritual Runes of Insight instantly strengthened his eyes. Then, he quickly raised the array flag in his hand and waved it down.
He had done this before, which resulted in the explosion of more than ten ghost cultivators. Now that he suddenly did this again, it was obvious that he had discovered traces of ghost cultivators.
But this time, the hidden ghost cultivators were only ten feet away from his position!
This was already an extremely dangerous distance, and the only ghost cultivator who could sneak in to this extent under the previous deterrence was only Ying Wuji!
When Lu Ye looked over, Ying Wu Ji's heart was filled with surprise. He instinctively felt that he had not been exposed, but Lu Ye's gaze was fixed on his position, so it was obvious that he had sensed something.
How was this possible?
Two months ago, even that True Lake Stage cultivator didn't sense his approach, how could this Lu Yiye detect him?
He also didn't trigger any traces of Spirit Arrays, or was this guy's Soul even stronger than the dead True Lake Stage cultivator?
In that instant, Ying Wuji reacted, his whole body turning into a black shadow as he rushed towards Lu Ye at an extremely fast speed.
Although he wanted to sneak up to Lu Ye and kill him in one strike, since he had been exposed, he could only attack head-on.
With a distance of ten feet, it was impossible for a Ninth Order cultivator to dodge!
Lu Ye didn't dodge, he just waved the array flag in his hand.
In the next instant, a curtain of light that covered an area of several meters appeared out of thin air, completely enveloping Ying Wuji.
Ying Wuji's heart thumped. The moment he saw this light curtain, he realized that something was wrong, because this light curtain gave him the feeling that it was … an Entrapment Array!
The next moment, his whole body was wrapped in a fierce aura as he slammed into the light curtain.
Unsurprisingly, it was indeed an Entrapment Array, and even with his full strength as a Ninth Order Ghost Cultivator, he was unable to break through it.
A sense of horror flooded his body and mind, and inside the Entrapment Array, violent and chaotic Spirit Qi fluctuations surged as a bright burst of fire appeared in Ying Wuji's vision.
* Hong Hong Hong Hong … *
The Explosion Array erupted with power, and it wasn't just a single Array. Just by looking at the movement, it was obvious there were at least three or four Explosion Arrays superimposed.
And inside the Entrapment Array, the power of the Explosion Array was further amplified.
Outside the Spirit Land, the eyes of many Myriad Demon Ridge cultivators twitched. This scene … was painful to watch.
Amidst the flames, a muffled groan rang out.
The light curtain of the Entrapment Array only lasted a breath of time before it broke …
It wasn't that the Entrapment Array arranged by Lu Ye wasn't strong enough, but rather that even a powerful Ghost Cultivator like Ying Wuji couldn't break through it.
It was just that the superimposed power of several Explosion Arrays had exceeded the limits of the Entrapment Array's light curtain.
Almost at the moment the Entrapment Array's light curtain broke, a black shadow rushed out, but instead of rushing in Lu Ye's direction, it went in the opposite direction.
The speed was far faster than before, and the surface of the black shadow was even covered in a thick layer of blood-red light. It was unknown what kind of Secret Technique it had used.
The black shadow flashed and rushed out of Returning Heaven Valley in the blink of an eye, disappearing without a trace.
From beginning to end, no one saw his true appearance.
Only Lu Ye vaguely saw something the moment the other party's figure was exposed. However, the other party was wearing a black cat mask on his face, so Lu Ye couldn't see his appearance. He could only infer from the Spirit Energy fluctuations that this person was a Ninth Order Ghost Cultivator.
In the sky, Song Zhui watched this scene speechlessly.
Ying Wuji … failed!
Not only did he fail, but he was also seriously injured!
This was truly the biggest joke in the world … (To be continued)
