#159 - Chapter 159 The Blood-Red Figure in the Cage

Outside the dense forest.

Su Qingwan sat to Ye Kong's left, asking all sorts of questions.

"Uncle Ye, did you encounter any danger when you came in?" Su Qingwan asked.

"Danger? Not really," Ye Kong said indifferently.

In his eyes, the ghosts and the Peach Blossom Spring they encountered didn't count as danger.

Lin Yaoyao, Xiaobai, and the other three were speechless when they heard their master say there was no danger.

Encountering two fierce ghosts doesn't count as danger?

Accidentally entering an illusion and almost being eaten doesn't count as danger?

Master is really daring to lie for the sake of flirting!

If the three of us weren't strong, we would have been wiped out long ago.

Xiaobai lay on Erha's back, not wanting to listen to his master's nonsense anymore.

The disciples of Wanhua Peak surrounded Xiaobai, chatting with her.

Lin Yaoyao sat to Ye Kong's right, not saying a word from beginning to end.

Fang Wu sat next to Su Qingwan, trying to talk to her, but Su Qingwan ignored him.

The scene was very harmonious.

They chatted all night, and it wasn't until dawn the next day that everyone continued into the dense forest.

The tremor last night only lasted for half an hour.

But everyone was afraid of something happening again, so they didn't go in all night.

It wasn't until dawn the next day, after confirming that there was no danger, that everyone stepped in again.

Ye Kong originally wanted to act alone with his three disciples, but Su Qingwan insisted on bringing her disciples along. Ye Kong was helpless and had to protect Wanhua Peak as well.

After entering the dense forest, the disciples of the Tianlong Sect followed behind not far away.

There were many traps in the dense forest, but Su Qingwan and the others had already walked through them once, so the traps were gone.

The atmosphere in the dense forest was very strange, and there was no sound when walking on the ground.

And the plants here were only towering ancient trees, without weeds, and the tree species were single.

Looking up, it was impossible to see the top, all ancient trees, without a single fallen leaf.

Ye Kong released his divine sense, and as soon as his divine sense flew up to a distance of three thousand meters, he felt a suppressive force.

It was as if there was a large net covering the dense forest.

Ye Kong walked and silently broke through the net, his divine sense spreading out.

The scenery above three thousand meters appeared in Ye Kong's mind.

Above, there were no trees at all, but wooden stakes, connected by spiritual power, forming a large net.

The net enveloped the dense forest, isolating the world.

Rather than calling this a dense forest, it was more like a cage.

Ye Kong used his powerful divine sense to see everything in the dense forest clearly.

The traps and checkpoints in the dense forest all had a line buried underneath, leading to the main hall.

That is to say, the flesh and bones of the people who died here would flow into the main hall along that line.

Just as Ye Kong was observing, a bloody shadow suddenly appeared and flashed past.

"What was that thing?" Ye Kong frowned slightly.

Just now, he seemed to have seen something.

"Master, that's a checkpoint," Xiaobai said unhappily.

Isn't it obvious that there's a checkpoint ahead?

There's no road ahead, it's blocked, there's only an underground passage, the underground passage is the checkpoint.

Isn't this obvious thing that Master can't see?

Ye Kong restrained his divine sense, looked at the checkpoint in front of him, and said: "I know."

If you know, why are you still asking?

Xiaobai was speechless in his heart.

Ye Kong looked up at the sky and murmured in his heart: "Could it be that it ran out of the palace?"

"Let my Martial Peak open the way," Fang Wu said, leading the Martial Peak disciples forward.

They had broken through about halfway through this checkpoint before, but because of the tremor, they ran back.

"My Wanhua Peak will guard the rear," Su Qingwan said, leading Wanhua Peak to walk behind.

Xiaoyao Peak was in the middle, protected.

Ye Kong looked back at the Tianlong Sect following behind, secretly praying that they better not follow in.

If they follow in, they won't be able to get out.

Ye Kong followed behind the Martial Peak disciples and walked into the underground passage, which was the checkpoint.

Stepping into it, the oil lamps on both sides instantly lit up, illuminating the dim passage.

Most of the traps inside had already been destroyed by the Martial Peak disciples, and some traps had not been triggered.

"The passage is very dangerous. Follow the pace of my Martial Peak closely later. Don't walk around. This is a maze, and it's easy to get lost."

"If you really get lost, don't walk around. Stand in place and wait. If you meet disciples of the righteous sect, act with them. If you meet the Demonic Sect, then run!"

The maze in the passage is connected, and it is easy to get lost.

"Also, don't touch anything randomly, it's easy to trigger mechanisms!" Fang Wu emphasized.

Ye Kong touched the wall with one hand, and suddenly a stone door fell behind him, cutting off their retreat.

Fang Wu turned his head to look at the stone door, then looked at Ye Kong, his expression stiff.

"I just finished saying..."

Lin Yaoyao and others supported their foreheads with one hand, their faces full of helplessness.

Master, you are not only going to坑死 your disciples, but also the disciples of the Xinghe Sect!

Master is too坑了, I will never go out with Master next time!

Su Qingwan tried to attack the stone door, but the stone door was unusually hard and could not be broken.

"Forget it, we have to continue to move forward anyway, it doesn't matter if the stone door falls, it's not a big problem," Su Qingwan said to defend Ye Kong.

Fang Wu then continued to lead the way, and when he walked, he reminded Ye Kong: "Uncle Ye, don't touch anything randomly again. If you trigger a powerful mechanism, we will all be finished!"

"I know, I didn't touch anything randomly," Ye Kong said truthfully.

Just now, he touched the wall and triggered the stone door and the mechanism behind it.

If the Tianlong Sect is lucky, they can retreat, if they are unlucky, they can only lie down and go out.

The opportunity is left to you, whether you live or die, decide for yourself... Ye Kong thought to himself.

Behind,

Yunlong and the others were walking when they suddenly triggered a mechanism.

Dense sword energy instantly attacked.

"Defense!" Yunlong shouted and lay on the ground.

The disciples of the Tianlong Sect urged their spiritual power to avoid the sword energy attack.

A wave of sword energy had just subsided, and some flying blades came again.

Those who reacted quickly turned around and dodged, and those who reacted slowly fell to the ground and turned into a pile of bone ashes.

People who die here will not have corpses left behind.

Flesh and bones, all disappeared.

"Be careful," Yunlong said, looking back.

He couldn't figure out why the Xinghe Sect disciples were walking in front, why didn't they trigger the mechanism?

Logically speaking, the road that has been walked once will not form a new mechanism in a short time.

Yunlong led people to walk, walking, walking, and walked to the stone door.

Everyone looked at the stone door in front of them, stunned.

"Where did the stone door come from?"

Yunlong looked at the stone door in front of him, how could he chase it?

There is a dead end ahead. Although there are forks next to it, if he takes the wrong path, his Tianlong Sect will all be lost here.

Yunlong closed his eyes and took a deep breath, thinking to himself: I'll bet, the people of Xiaoyao Peak didn't walk into the stone door.

I'll bet, they took the left path!

"Go to the left!" Yunlong led the Tianlong Sect disciples towards the left passage.
