The Evil Emperor's Beloved

"The territorial awareness of these monsters will probably be very strong, so we must be careful then." This voice belonged to Mo Feng.

Si Mojue's words aroused Jing Yueli's interest. "A divine beast? What kind of divine beast?"

The ten Jing family guards who heard Jing Yueli's question: ...Here we go again...

The last time I heard a similar topic was when they encountered the Wind Wolf.

Jing Liu's face was a little distorted, and he stepped forward fearlessly and asked, "Miss, you are not going to take advantage of this divine beast again, are you?"

Jing Yueli looked at him with an innocent look on her face, "No...Is it okay?"

Zhong Jing Jiawei: ...heart attack

Same environment, same lines.

They were afraid that they would not be able to return alive this time.

"It is said that it is a bird with a completely green body and very beautiful feathers. From its neck upwards it is colorful and its crown is golden in appearance. It resembles a peacock and a phoenix, and its tail feathers are particularly long." Ignoring the conversation between Jing Yueli and Jing Liu, Si Mojue continued as an expounder.

"Birds? Then they must be flying mythical beasts." Jing Yueli looked excited.

Is this to confirm that the bird is hers? The people around were speechless. Isn't it too early for you to be happy?

Si Mojue: "Well, yes, he should be able to control fire, and his body will be surrounded by flames naturally."

Jing Yueli's eyes were full of stars, and then her expression immediately became very determined.

Seeing Jing Yueli like this, the other Jings completely gave up hope. Their young lady was determined to get this bird.

I just hope they are still alive by then...

Li Feng, who was behind Jing Yueli, listened to their words thoughtfully. He seemed to have seen the bird they were talking about in a notebook.

Skipping this topic, the group continued walking forward.

Before, they had been walking on flat ground almost all the time, but now what appeared before their eyes was a forest of strange rocks.

Everyone stopped and looked ahead. There stood irregular boulders of various sizes in front of them. Some of them were as high as a hundred meters in the distance, like a small hill.

There are also some that are only a few meters or dozens of meters away nearby, with no pattern at all.

"Wow, so many stones, have we reached the stone forest?" Brother Mo Xuan shouted when he saw the large stone forest in front of him.

Jing Yueli: "The stone forest is too big and too high. Everyone should walk separately according to the teams we were divided into before to avoid being attacked by a group."

Hearing Jing Yueli's voice, everyone naturally returned to their respective teams and looked around with vigilance.

Not long after they entered the forest of strange rocks, an unknown wind blew around them, giving them a gloomy feeling.

Si Mojue: "Everyone, be careful and stay alert."

Against the wind, we walked for half an hour, but we had not yet walked out of one-third of the stone forest and were still walking in the shorter stone forest.

"Sister Yueli, it seems like we are back to square one!?" Si Moxuan exclaimed as he looked at a tree next to him.

Si Mowen quickly ran to his brother's side and said, "How could it be, did you see it right?"

Si Moxuan: "Absolutely not. Look at this tree. I just cut it with my sword."

Everyone followed his gaze and looked, and sure enough, there was a waist-thick tree to the right of Si Moxuan, and there was an obvious sword mark near the roots of the tree.

Jing Yi: "It seems that this stone forest is more troublesome than we thought. There should be a formation. What is waiting for us is still unknown."

Jing Yueli nodded in agreement and looked at everyone, "From now on, I and the captains will walk in the front, the one with the highest cultivation level in each team will walk in the back, and the rest will walk in the middle."

Everyone had no objection, especially the few with lower cultivation. They didn't want to drag the team down. Now was not the time to be strong. There would be many more opportunities for training later.

As soon as we lined up, the ground began to tremble and the cold wind blew even stronger, like the devil's laughter.

Everyone swallowed involuntarily and held their weapons tighter.

"Everyone, don't run around, keep your feet on the ground." As soon as Jing Yueli finished shouting, countless pieces of rubble fell on them from above.

There was no way to keep steady on one's feet now, and everyone began to dodge the falling rocks.

"Ah!" Everyone screamed, dodging the falling rocks and looking towards the place where the sound came from. They saw Li Xue waving her sword at the empty space in front of her, but no one saw anything in front of her.

Li Feng: "Not good, it seems she has entered an illusion, everyone be careful and stay calm."

"Ah!" Another scream, Si Mowen also fell into an illusion.

Jing Jiawei and Yueyingwei quickly went to look for their young lady.

Everyone was anxious, but Jing Yueli just stood there without moving and did not join in the fun.

Her eyes were closed, her ears were erected, and her brows were furrowed.

"Everyone close your eyes and use your spiritual sense to check your surroundings." Someone shouted and everyone did as they were told.

Jing Yueli, with her spiritual awareness and mental power both dispersed, was checking the surrounding environment inch by inch. If it was a formation, there must be a formation eye, and if it was an illusion, there must be a breakthrough.

Wherever the divine consciousness reaches, no matter how secretly hidden, it will soon be revealed.

Some of them closed their eyes, but because of their weak wills, they still could not escape the clutches of the illusion.

For those who are trapped in the illusion, various images appear in front of them.

Those who encountered monsters would start a fierce battle, with the weapons in their hands wielding fiercely.

Some see their loved ones, some are happy, some are sad.

The happy people laughed loudly over there. “Hahahaha…hahaha…”

Sad, she was crying loudly over there. "Wuwu..."

Seeing them like this, Jing Yueli knew that she had to speed up, otherwise they would be trapped in the illusion. In this situation, it was easy to reveal flaws and be attacked unconsciously.

Outside the illusion, there were gusts of cold wind and the sky was about to darken.

Seeing several people almost collapsing, Jing Yueli was anxious, "No, if we continue like this, the danger factor will be even higher when night falls."

Jing Yueli stopped looking at them and concentrated her attention, using her mental power to perceive.

After an incense stick of time, there was a loud "boom!" and the surrounding environment began to shake violently. The countless pieces of gravel that had just fallen to the ground began to gather rapidly, forming a huge stone ball, which smashed towards one corner fiercely and quickly. After a few breaths, the ground stopped shaking and returned to calm.

The few people who were trapped in the illusion felt their souls tremble. Those who were fighting stopped their manual movements, and those who were crying and laughing were all stuck in an instant, looking around blankly.

At this time Jing Yueli also opened her eyes. Li Feng quickly came to Jing Yueli, looked her up and down, and found that she was safe and sound, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

Jing Yueli looked at him, "I'm fine!"

"What happened just now? I felt like I was fighting with a saber-toothed tiger. So tired!" Si Moxuan was a little listless.

"Me too, I seemed to see my grandmother." Tears still hung on Si Mowen's face.
