A devil's self-redemption

Luo Lai had no intention of taking out the array talisman before. It was his way of hiding the talisman. Not only could it resist attackers, it also had some functions that could not be shared with outsiders. If outsiders knew about it, he would be in great trouble.

But if he doesn't take it out now, not to mention that half of these disciples of the Lichen Sect will miss the opportunity in vain, and even he himself may not have time to practice because of dealing with the attackers, which is a bit more gain than loss.

Wen Ruyu understood Luo Lai's concerns after thinking for a while, and immediately volunteered: "Brother Luo, let me hold the formation talisman. As long as we find the spiritual spring, you can practice immediately. When your strength improves, maybe you can face that An attacker wouldn't have such a hard time."

The others did not interrupt. Those present were all smart people. Of course they knew what Luo Lai meant, and they did not ask for control of the formation talisman.

It's just that their eyes looked at the formation talisman in Wen Ruyu's hand that was extremely fiery. After hearing Wen Ruyu's words, Luo Lai shook his head and said: "With my current strength, if I practice, it will take too much time and is not cost-effective. You should come first."

Luo Lai was not afraid of that guy's sneak attack, and even vaguely hoped that the guy would sneak attack him. As long as that guy attacked him, the Donghuang Bell in his sea of ​​consciousness would teach him how to be a human being and hand over the formation talisman in his hand to others. The hand was also a bait, for someone hiding in secret. He believed that the person had been watching them secretly nearby, because he could always feel the feeling of being spied on. Ever since he got the black stone statue, no one would spy on him. be noticed.

After leaving a few people to keep vigil, the others began to sink into deep cultivation levels in order to recover their spiritual power as soon as possible.

At dawn the next day, when everyone in the Lichen Sect woke up from practicing, they were shocked to find that none of the disciples from other sects were there.

Wen Ruyu said with an ugly face: "What are the people watching at night doing? You don't give a warning when something like this happens?"

However, he soon got the answer. The people who kept watch in the second half of the night were the disciples of other sects. They quietly left while the Lichen Sect disciples were practicing.

Luo Lai opened his eyes and shook his head and said, "Don't worry, I noticed it when they left last night, but they didn't have any murderous intention towards us, so I let them leave, and the person who secretly attacked seemed to have left with them." , not a bad thing for us.”

After listening to Luo Lai's words, Wen Ruyu and others' expressions changed several times, and finally calmed down. Since Senior Brother Luo said so, they no longer struggled. However, Wen Ruyu still asked curiously: "Why did they leave so anxiously when they clearly have no means to deal with the people in the dark?"

Luo Lai smiled deeply and said, "Everyone has their own agenda!"

Wen Ruyu didn't understand, and when he asked again, he found that Luo Lai had stood up and walked aside, so he shut up and started packing his luggage.

A quarter of an hour later, everyone gathered and started on their way. Luo Lai had already felt the unusually strong spiritual energy far ahead yesterday, so he chose to stop and rest here. As expected, the other sects left in the middle of the night. Judging from their direction, they were sure He was heading towards a place with strong spiritual energy, but he didn't know how many people would die there.

Less than an hour after Luo Lai and his party were on their way, they encountered an extremely strange scene. The corpse of a monster beast lay across the front. The corpse of the monster beast was extremely huge, just lying on the ground, it was ten feet high. However, the corpse was now quite mutilated, with only a torso and no head. The monster's head seemed to have been blown open by a human being.

"What kind of being can destroy such a huge monster here?" Shan Ling gasped and said with a shocked face.

"It's not man-made. It should have been killed here after losing a fight with another powerful monster." Wen Ruyu said after observing for a moment.

Wen Ruyu was right. This monster corpse was covered in scars, many of which were caused by sharp claws and bites.

Luo Lai stepped forward and after careful inspection, he found that the monster's demon elixir was no longer there. It must have been taken away by the guy who killed the monster. Then he looked at the size of the wounds on the corpse and roughly estimated the size of the monster, and his expression became heavy.

"Everyone, cheer up. The monster that killed this guy may not have left yet, and is ready to fight at any time!"

When everyone heard Luo Lai's reminder, they immediately held the formation talisman in hand, preparing to deal with the attack at any time.

After standing up, Luo Lai led everyone to continue moving forward, but at a much slower pace. After walking for another two hours, a large piece of spiritual energy that was so rich that it could not be dissolved suddenly appeared in front of everyone, as if the mist formed by this spiritual energy fell from the sky, completely There is no induction from far to near.

And I saw several familiar figures on the edge of the fog, but now there were only three people standing, and the others were already lying on the ground, not knowing whether they were alive or dead.

These three people were Lian Xinnu, Ding Xiaojia, and Song Hongzhuang. Even Yu Cai'e of Fuyao Sect had fallen to the ground.

The three people stood in a rather strange position. Although they all had smiles on their faces, they were relatively far away from each other, as if they were afraid of being attacked.

They also saw the arrival of Luo Lai and others, with different expressions on their faces, and they didn't know what they were thinking.

Luo Lai was keenly aware of what was wrong with the three of them, so he stopped moving forward. Instead, he changed direction, bypassed the location of the three of them, and approached the place where the spiritual mist was.

Suddenly Wen Ruyu screamed and quickly came to Luo Lai's side. The surprise on his face could not be concealed: "Brother Luo, this mist can help us escape from the womb."

His voice was not quiet, and everyone listened to it, and the expressions on his face became wonderful. I originally thought that this time there was a sudden change in the secret realm, and someone else was waiting for an opportunity to attack, and everything would be fine if they could get out safely, but I didn't expect happiness to come. So sudden, as long as they practice here for a period of time, their cultivation, which was originally on the verge of rebirth, will definitely complete three rebirths in a very short period of time, and even four rebirths are no longer a luxury.

However, Luo Lai shouted loudly: "Be alert!" As soon as he finished speaking, the Yin-Yang Fish Formation Talisman in Wen Ruyu's hand had been activated, and the black and white light alternated and shrouded everyone.

Several sharp and abnormal sounds sounded in the light. It was at this moment that everyone saw clearly that there were several streaks of black smoke surrounding them, and they fled in confusion under the busy light.

The expressions of surprise on the faces of the disciples of the Lichen Sect were replaced by panic before they faded away. If Wen Ruyu had activated the formation talisman just a few seconds later, several of them would have died. After thinking about this section, they couldn't help but be frightened and confused.

The three people in the other direction had different expressions when they saw that there were no casualties among the Lichen Sect disciples.

Lian Xinnu and Ding Xiaojia had disappointment in their eyes, but Song Hongzhuang's eyes were calm and expressionless.

"Senior Brother Luo, what should I do?" Wen Ruyu's face tightened and he asked in a trembling voice.

Luo Lai glanced at the three people in the distance and said: "Continue to inject spiritual power into the formation talisman. If the spiritual power is insufficient, hand it over to Shan Ling and let her continue to control the formation talisman."

Wen Ruyu nodded to express that he heard it, and then followed Luo Lai into the mist.

Ding Xiaojia and the others held weapons and carefully entered the mist from another direction.

After Luo Lai entered the fog, he immediately saw a spiritual spring in front of him. The fog above the spiritual spring was particularly thick. It was obvious that the spiritual spring was of a high level. However, the moment he turned his head, there was a spiritual spring there. There is actually a spiritual spring next to it. It seems that the mist floating above is higher than the spiritual spring in front.

What made him stunned was that as far as he could see, there were at least seven or eight spiritual springs located in this location, with the lowest level being the intermediate spiritual springs. And there must be a large number of spiritual springs in places that are out of sight.

He had thought of many ways to encounter the spiritual spring, but he had never thought of such a surprising way.

The other people's expressions were dull when they saw such a scene. They were shocked on the spot. Lan Xin even murmured unconsciously: "So many... so many..."

However, at the moment when everyone was in a daze, a scream sounded from behind the team, waking everyone up from their daze.

Luo Lai immediately looked at the place where the scream came from. A Lichen Sect disciple slowly fell to the ground, clutching his chest. He twitched twice on the ground and then lost his voice.

Luo Lai leapt to the side of the Lichen Sect disciple who had become a corpse. He looked at the horrific wound on his chest. A bloody hole the size of a fist penetrated the man's chest. His heart was shattered, and even the spine on his back was broken. Broken together.

The remaining disciples of the Lichen Sect drew their swords and stood on guard with fearful expressions. The two female disciples Shan Ling and Lan Xin were protected in the middle, forming a circular defensive formation.

Luo Lai had activated his consciousness to the extreme and scanned the surrounding environment, trying to find the attacker. However, after a moment, he opened his eyes in disappointment and found nothing.

"Has anyone seen the attacker?" Luo Lai asked in a deep voice.

No one answered. Luo Lai didn't have much hope. He didn't even notice anything strange, let alone his fellow disciples who were worse than him.

Looking at the man's wounds, Luo Lai realized that someone was approaching him from behind, and then punched him in the back and heart, and then left instantly before the man screamed. How much speed and strength was required? ! The most deadly thing is that it comes and goes like the wind, without being noticed by anyone.

Thinking of this, sweat broke out on Luo Lai's forehead, and his heart felt cold. This person was too terrifying, and maybe they would all tell him here.

"Luo...Senior Brother Luo, what should we do now?" Shan Ling's lips turned a little white. Faced with the threat of death, anyone would inevitably feel fear.

"The attacker didn't kill us all at once, so he probably wasn't very strong, but his concealment method and attack speed were quite powerful. He probably used some kind of magical power, and he immediately escaped after a successful attack. And from the time this person took action until now, there are some Time has passed, and there is still no second round of attacks. It should be that there are some limitations in the use of this magical power." After speaking, Luo Lai took out a pile of formation talismans from the Qiankun bag, distributed them to everyone and said, "This is a defensive formation talisman. , I made it overnight last night. After activation, it will form a layer of defensive light on the surface of the body, which lasts for an hour and is activated immediately."

Everyone's expressions calmed down a little after hearing this. Senior Brother Luo's formation talisman has always been able to turn decay into magical means, and this time it should be possible to turn danger into safety. After activating the formation talisman in their hands, the disciples of the Lichen Sect saw the corpses on the ground, their faces full of sadness. They were about to enjoy the fruits of success, but they died miserably here. It was a pity.

Luo Lai and others waited in full formation for an hour, but still did not receive the expected attack. During this period, everyone was highly nervous, always on guard, and both physically and mentally exhausted.

Luo Lai ordered everyone to take turns to practice in the middle, and they had already arrived at the spiritual spring. Lan Xin was the weakest, and the mid-level spiritual spring was enough for her to use, so she was allowed to enter the spiritual spring to practice.

In just half an hour, Lan Xin had already completed her third rebirth, and had taken a big step forward. Only then had the special spiritual energy in the spiritual spring been completely absorbed.

The moment Lan Xin walked out of the spiritual spring, Luo Lai felt an extremely subtle wave rushing towards Lan Xin who had not yet stood firm, and no one else noticed at all.

And he didn't react too much. He just activated the talisman in his hand and stood in front of Lan Xin.

"Pfft!" There was a soft sound of a sharp blade entering flesh.

A not particularly sharp pain spread into Luo Lai's mind. He breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the location where the waist was stabbed, feeling trance-like for a while.

Fortunately, with the blessing of the formation talisman and the terrifying body that had been reborn for the sixth time, he was only slightly injured by this blow.

If this blow hits Lan Xin, serious injury is inevitable, and it is also possible that her newly advanced cultivation level will fall short, and she will fall back to the second stage of rebirth.

The attacker had already fled far away, but Luo Lai had already seen the figure, and he was quite familiar with it. He should be an acquaintance.

"Haha! I caught you..." Luo Lai sneered after activating a healing talisman, and made two consecutive sneak attacks, finally allowing him to catch the clues. Next time she takes action, she will never come back.

"Senior Brother Luo, thank you. If it weren't for you, I...I..." Lan Xin said with a pale face.

The faces of the others were not good-looking either. The blow just now, let alone Lan Xin, would have caused any one of them to be seriously injured or even at risk of death.

Luo Lai regained his composure and returned with a smile: "There is no need to be so polite between fellow disciples. Now I will control the formation talisman. Everyone can practice in the nearby spiritual spring. I will protect the law!"

After saying that, he took the Yin-Yang Formation Talisman from Wen Ruyu's hand. The Yin-Yang Formation Talisman was much more powerful in Luo Lai's hands than in Wen Ruyu's hands. The light shone within a radius of fifty meters, directly illuminating no less than eight spiritual beings. spring.

The others excitedly walked towards a spiritual spring, but Wen Ruyu said hesitantly: "Senior Brother Luo, is there really no problem?"

Luo Lai gave him a reassuring look to reassure him, and Wen Ruyu chose an empty spiritual spring and walked into it to start practicing.

Only Luo Lai and the newly promoted Lan Xin were left at the scene. Luo Lai said: "Hurry up and stabilize your cultivation. Try to practice before leaving the secret realm. This is a rare opportunity."

"Okay!" Lan Xin followed her words and sat cross-legged on the ground and began to practice.

Luo Lai also began to think about some of the things he encountered after entering the secret realm. He noticed a different meaning and planned to take the opportunity to straighten out his thoughts.
