Chapter 287: Sneak Attack from Behind
If it were before, perhaps Chen would have thought of this method immediately, but there would be no possibility of implementing it.
But now he really has the possibility of putting it into practice, which is the racial secret of the Phantom Bird.
Although he didn't have complete control, he could still create a certain illusion. Besides, the other party's cultivation was lower than his, so there was no way he could fail.
Chen Li's mind moved, and then he slowly circulated his power, condensing the illusion on the two people not far away.
Before Zhou Lin and Li Zhou knew what was going on, they found that Chen Li was already standing there and Li Zhou was still talking about something.
After that, the two of them began to look for something nearby in a mysterious manner, as if they were happy because they had found some mechanism.
Seeing their actions, Chen Li immediately put the token in his hand into the groove. All of a sudden, the wall made a rumbling sound.
Seeing that it was completed, Chen Li quickly took back the token and quickly returned to their side before dissolving the illusion.
Li Zhou looked at this scene with surprise in his eyes, "I didn't expect that we actually found the mechanism."
In their illusion, Chen Li was with them from beginning to end, and together they found the hidden mechanism and opened the wall.
Zhou Lin snorted coldly, "I thought he had some ability, but in the end he still relied on me to open the mechanism."
Chen Li sneered and said nothing, but his eyes kept staring at Zhou Lin, making his scalp tingle.
However, Chen Li did not argue with Zhou Lin. After all, this kid was kept in the dark and didn't even know it, so he had no right to say such things.
Fortunately, this wall has been opened, and the next step is to go deeper into it and take a look.
Just as the wall opened, the figure of a monster suddenly appeared in their sight.
"Be careful!" When Li Zhou saw the monster, he rushed to Zhou Lin immediately and blocked the attack for him.
At this time, Zhou Lin was breathing heavily and his heart was beating very fast. It seemed that he had not expected this result at all.
If Li Zhou hadn't discovered it quickly, he would have been targeted by the monster.
This was a demon beast in the early Nascent Soul stage, with a ferocious murderous intent. Although its attack was blocked by Li Zhou, it quickly prepared for the next attack.
Of course Chen Li did not give it a chance to attack. A few sword energies flew past, and the monster, which was originally so aggressive, fell to the ground and became a corpse.
Looking at the fallen monster, Chen Li didn't think much about it. He just turned his head and glanced at Zhou Lin, "After all, you can handle this monster by yourself, don't hold us back."
Zhou Lin's face turned very ugly. He didn't expect that Chen Li would mock him at this time.
"Hmph." He seemed not to intend to listen to Chen Li's words and walked straight into the innermost part. He had no intention of staying here any longer.
Li Zhou watched Zhou Lin walk inside and quickly stopped him, "Brother, you have to understand that this secret realm is very dangerous. If you are not careful, you will definitely be targeted by other monsters."
"You don't need to tell me, I know it naturally." After saying that, Zhou Lin passed Li Zhou and walked deeper without hesitation.
Seeing Zhou Lin walking straight into the depths, Chen Li had no intention of paying any attention to him. Instead, he walked slowly inside.
He just discovered that there was something wrong with . He always felt that there was a vague gaze staring at him.
He originally planned to catch the other person's sight, but it turned out that he had no way to catch it, and he didn't even know where the other person was.
"It seems I have to be more careful." Chen Li muttered to himself, quickly expanding his spiritual sense and observing everything around him.
Whether these people died or not had nothing to do with him, but if he died here, it would be a loss.
Even though doing so would certainly make the people of Xuantian Sect unhappy, he had already lost his life. Would he still have a chance to refute?
As they walked along, Chen Li and his companions did not notice any monsters around, which was indeed strange.
Clearly, a monster appeared in sight the moment the wall opened, but why is there no monster at all now?
It's impossible that there is only that one monster here, but the people from the Yunjian Sect are just joking when they do this.
Is it worth using this method to seal a demon beast in the Nascent Soul stage?
Not long after, Chen Li and the other two reached the deepest part. There was a high platform in front of them, and there were many broken swords around it.
"Broken sword and incomplete formation." Chen Li looked at the incomplete formation in front of him and said in surprise.
Zhou Lin snorted coldly, "After all, it's just a remnant formation. What's there to be afraid of?"
After saying that, he walked inside immediately. As soon as he stepped into the remaining formation, he felt a very strong sword intent, which made him look very uncomfortable standing there.
Chen Li frowned. Although this was a remnant of the formation, it was a formation left behind by the Yunjian Sect. How could he, who was in the early Nascent Soul stage, possibly withstand it?
Although I want to teach this guy a lesson, it would be a waste of time if he really died here.
So Chen Li circulated his spiritual energy and pulled him out at the first opportunity, which brought Zhou Lin back from the brink of death.
"You are so arrogant. Do you really think you are so powerful in the early stage of Nascent Soul? Control your temper, otherwise you will bring other people into danger. After all, the responsibility is yours." Chen Li stood beside Zhou Lin and said coldly.
Zhou Lin gritted his teeth and looked very unwilling. He was obviously just an elder of an inferior sect, so what qualifications did he have to teach him a lesson.
Even Li Zhou was very surprised. He did not expect Chen Li’s strength to be so terrifying. He was not far away from him one second, and pulled Zhou Lin back the next.
"Li Zhou, you keep an eye on your useless senior brother, and leave the remaining formation to me." Chen Li's voice was very cold, and he turned to Li Zhou and said.
There is no way to count on them this time. After all, this kind of thing is no joke.
If I let them disturb me, I would probably be in big trouble. Moreover, as long as I absorb the sword intent in this remaining formation, if nothing unexpected happens, I should be able to condense a lot of sword spirit.
When you reach the realm of Heart Sword, you will be able to successfully fight against cultivators in the late Nascent Soul stage.
Thinking in his heart, Chen Li slowly closed his eyes, circulated his spiritual energy, and began to explore the remaining formation in front of him.
There are a lot of sword intents in the remaining formation, and they come from different broken swords. If you want to break this remaining formation, you must eliminate all the sword intents on these broken swords.
It seems that this is a delicate job. It cannot be absorbed all at once, but can only be done one handful at a time. Otherwise, it will cause the sword intent to be disordered and cause irreparable consequences.
As time passed, Chen Li had begun to gradually break down the remaining formation.
Zhou Lin stood aside and watched Chen Li's movements, with a hint of murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
This guy just belittled me again and again. He must be taught a lesson.
He slowly condensed the spiritual energy in his palm, then quietly approached Chen Li and suddenly slapped him.
Originally, Chen Li was concentrating on fighting against the sword intent and didn't pay any attention to the situation around him. As a result, before he knew it, he was hit by a palm.
Although the power of this attack was not low, there was still a gap in realm. Unfortunately, Chen Li's spiritual energy was disordered, and suddenly he spat out a mouthful of blood on the ground.
He suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes revealed a murderous aura, staring at Zhou Lin in front of him, "You are looking for death!"
A terrible pressure suddenly came over Zhou Lin, causing his legs to tremble uncontrollably. He did not expect that Chen Li, who had taken a palm strike from him and was already deeply trapped in the remnant formation, could actually release such terrible murderous intent.
"Hmph, just wait for me!" Zhou Lin made up his mind, turned around and ran outside, with no intention of continuing to take care of the place.
Li Zhou looked at this scene, feeling torn. After thinking for a moment, he finally clasped his fists to Chen Li, turned around and followed Zhou Lin's footsteps.
Chen Liben wanted to chase after him, but the surrounding sword intent suddenly attacked and entangled him tightly. If he did not resolve the sword intent, he would probably die here today.
His breath was disrupted just now, so he couldn't chase after the enemy and could only endure the suppression from the sword intent.
It seems that I can only concentrate on absorbing some of the sword intent, otherwise there will definitely be big problems.
He quickly sat down cross-legged and redirected the recovery of his spiritual energy. Although his rhythm was disrupted, he was still able to keep steady.
As time went by, Chen Li gradually calmed down. Fortunately, the opponent was not at the same level as him, otherwise the palm strike just now would have taken his life.
At the same time, Zhou Lin and his companion were escaping on the other side. To be honest, Zhou Lin had no idea about this at all.
He was not worried at all that Chen Li would retaliate, because with his background, how could a mere elder of the Nanli Sect have the qualifications to fight against their Xuantian Sect.
"Senior Brother Zhou, what you did just now was really too much." Li Zhou looked at Zhou Lin and questioned him.
Zhou Lin glared at Li Zhou fiercely and said, "Shut up! Keep this to yourself when you go back. If I find out that you've told anyone, you'll be in big trouble."
Li Zhou nodded. After all, Zhou Lin was the disciple of the Fourth Elder. If he really provoked him, he would probably have a hard time in Xuantian Sect.
Just as they were about to approach the portal, the ground began to shake violently, causing them to stop immediately.
When they turned around and looked around, their faces became very ugly, "Damn it, what's going on."
