Chapter 792 Trapped
Chapter 792 Trapped
However, just as they were about to climb over the courtyard wall, a subtle mechanical sound suddenly came from the top of the wall.
The three of them suddenly realized that something was wrong and quickly turned over and jumped back into the darkness.
With a "click" sound, countless iron spikes with barbs shot out from the courtyard wall and densely stuck into the ground.
"What the hell is this?" Li Xixi cursed.
She found that the iron spikes had a faint black aura, and it was obvious that they were not good things.
"Don't touch them!" Yan Zhen reminded him in time, "These iron spikes are attached with a highly toxic aura."
The three of them quickly stepped back and reassessed the situation.
At this moment, there was a burst of dog barking in the yard, and several huge black shadows rushed out from the yard. They were actually a group of vicious dogs with pitch-black bodies!
"These dogs don't seem simple." Yan Zhen narrowed his eyes and observed.
Those vicious dogs exuded a strong evil aura and were obviously not ordinary animals.
"It seems that Xiao Guangjun has put a lot of effort into preventing thieves." Chen Yile said with a wry smile.
He took out a jade talisman from his bosom and gently squeezed it. The talisman shattered with a sound, turning into a golden light that scattered into the air.
The next moment, the three of them chanted in unison and cast their own spells.
At the same time, they saw the true face of the vicious dog in the moonlight.
These are not ordinary dogs, but fierce dogs that have been transformed by some kind of evil magic!
Just as the three were dealing with the vicious dog, a sinister laugh suddenly rang out in the yard.
"Since the three fellow Taoists are here, why don't you come in openly?"
The sound came from all directions, as if echoing in my ears.
The three of them looked at each other and immediately became alert. They knew that the laughter must be the result of some kind of magic.
"Don't fall into their trap!" Li Xixi reminded.
The three of them quickly dispersed and looked for cover.
However, at this moment, the ground beneath his feet suddenly shook slightly.
"Be careful!" Yan Zhen suddenly shouted.
The three of them jumped up at the same time, and saw a crack in the ground, and countless steel needles with barbs shot out from it.
Wherever the steel needle passed, the air was filled with a pungent fishy smell.
Chen Yile recognized that this was some kind of poisonous aura: "These traps are specifically targeted at those who practice Taoism!"
The three of them did not dare to be careless at all. They quickly adjusted their bodies in the air and avoided the attack of the steel needles.
However, this was only the beginning. It seemed that there were similar traps every few steps in the courtyard. They had to move forward cautiously.
At this moment, an open space suddenly appeared in front.
A tall flagpole stood on the open ground, with a black flag fluttering on top.
The black flag moved without wind, casting a strange shadow in the moonlight.
"What is this?" Li Xixi asked in confusion.
"Not good!" Chen Yile suddenly shouted.
He discovered that there was an ancient rune pattern painted on the black banner!
The moment the three of them approached, the rune suddenly lit up with a faint red light.
In an instant, the ground in the open space began to shake violently.
Before the three of them could react, they felt as if they were in a void of space.
The scene before my eyes began to distort and overlap, as if I had entered a maze.
At this moment, a gust of cold wind suddenly blew from all directions.
The three of them subconsciously used their spiritual energy to protect themselves, but they felt that the spiritual energy in their bodies was suppressed by some force!
"What happened?" Li Xixi was horrified to find that her spiritual energy could not function.
"No! This is a restriction specifically designed to restrain ascetics!" Yan Zhen shouted angrily.
Before he could finish his words, a group of dark shadows suddenly rushed up from all directions.
They were a group of evil spirits of various shapes!
These ghosts are different from ordinary undead. Their bodies are twisted and deformed, and they emit a disgusting stench.
What’s even more terrifying is that their eyes are glowing blood red, as if they can penetrate the human soul.
Chen Yile recognized their aura: "The aura of these ghosts seems to be exactly the same as the vengeful spirits summoned by Ling Xuzi!"
The three of them quickly formed a defensive formation. Chen Yile drew the dagger from his waist, and a golden light suddenly appeared on the sword.
Yan Zhen formed seals with his hands, forming a black shield.
Li Xixi mobilized the power of Yan Jun's bloodline to form a purple energy barrier around her.
However, the power of these evil spirits far exceeded their imagination.
A huge ghost suddenly pounced on Chen Yile, opening its bloody mouth and trying to swallow him.
Chen Yile swiftly swung his sword, and the golden light instantly split the ghost in half.
However, more ghosts rushed over immediately.
"They are so powerful!" Li Xixi shouted while resisting the ghosts' attacks.
At this moment, Chen Yile suddenly remembered the efficacy of the gold and silver seals: "I will purify these ghosts!"
He raised his hand and channeled spiritual power into his palm.
The mark emitted a soft light, forming a barrier in the air.
However, to his surprise, these ghosts seemed to have great resistance to the purifying power of the gold and silver seals!
"They seem to have been strengthened by some force!" Chen Yile said gritting his teeth. He could feel that the power of the mark was being strongly suppressed.
At this critical moment, Li Xixi suddenly sensed a hidden presence: "Look!"
Following her guidance, the three of them looked up at the sky.
Suddenly, a dazzling red light burst out from the black banner, forming a huge vortex in the air.
A figure could be vaguely seen in the vortex—it was Ling Xuzi!
"So that's it!" Chen Yile roared.
Several people finally understood that Xiao Guangjun was just a pawn of Ling Xuzi, and these evil spirits were the means Xiao Guangjun used to restrain them!
However, at this moment, the vortex suddenly dissipated.
Ling Xuzi's voice came from all directions: "Why are you guys like little bugs, always clinging to me and I can't get rid of you!"
"Ling Xuzi, you have hurt Lord Yan and committed many evil deeds. We will never let your conspiracy succeed!" Yan Zhen shouted angrily.
The three of them quickly gathered their spiritual energy and prepared to launch a counterattack.
However, at this moment, Xiao Guangjun's voice suddenly came from behind: "You are late."
Xiao Guangjun appeared behind the three of them at some point. A strange smile flashed across his face. "Ling Xuzi has already achieved a breakthrough. There's no way you can stop him."
Before he finished speaking, a shadow suddenly fell from the sky, shrouding the entire house in darkness...
Ling Xuzi seemed to have broken through some restraints, and his aura was now extremely powerful, even stronger than before in the Mingyuan Forbidden Land.
The three realized that something was wrong, but it was too late to escape. The air around them seemed to become hard, and they were firmly trapped by Ling Xuzi's power.
At this moment, Xiao Guangjun suddenly spoke up, "Don't waste your energy. I think you guys are talented. Why don't you kowtow to Master Ling Xuzi and admit your mistakes? Join us, and you will surely receive countless benefits in the future."
