Chapter 887: The Story of Being Trapped
“When we heard his words, we were naturally overjoyed. In our joy, we didn’t bother to ask any more questions and followed him to this place. At that time, these Infernal Mirage Flowers were just some low plants that hadn’t bloomed yet. Moreover, their young plants were very similar to the non-toxic Flaming Paper Kite. At that time, we were in a hurry to find the enchantment barrier, so we didn’t examine them carefully. We thought that it was just Flaming Paper Kites, so even though we thought that there were a lot of them, we didn’t consider them a threat.
However, when we entered this place, those ‘Flaming Paper Kites’ grew buds at a rapid speed and bloomed into Infernal Mirage Flowers. In an instant, a rich fragrance pervaded the air.
Fortunately, Elder Qi reacted quickly and told us to quickly activate an isolation array. At the moment we entered the isolation array, a large number of demonic beasts rushed over here. Despite being in the isolation array, we soon fell under the illusions of the flowers.” Elder Qu briefly recounted what had happened.
“Elder Zhang of the Heavenly Gates Sect? The Elder Zhang who framed me for killing his grandson?” Yun Chujiu asked.
“That’s right, it’s him!”
“Then where is he?”
“That bastard didn’t wait for us to settle the score with him. He bit his index finger and used a secret technique. After the image of a Red Spider Lily formed in mid-air, he disappeared! I never thought that he was actually from the Red Spider Lily faction!”
“The Heavenly Gates Sect again? I caught a person from the Godly Devil Hall in the West Valley. Oh, so that’s the name of the Red Spider Lily faction. It seems that the Godly Devil Hall has already embedded a spy amongst the four great sects.” Yun Chujiu briefly told everyone what had happened in the West Valley.
The elders of the Heavenly Gates Sect looked ashamed. They had not expected that the spies from the east and west valleys to be from the Heavenly Gates Sect.
“Little Jiu Girl, you have always been resourceful. What should we do next?”
Following Elder Qu’s words, everyone looked at Yun Chujiu with anticipation. Yun Chujiu was now their last hope. They placed all their trust in Yun Chujiu.
Yun Chujiu touched her nose and said, “Everyone, I don’t have any good ideas. I only have three methods that worked so far. The first one is the same one I used in the ancient sword tomb. It involves drawing out the rune spirit’s Wu Yun to attack me. Doing so will consume its Spirit Stones. We will look out for the fluctuations in spirit energy to help us find the enchantment. The second is to split up and look for a place where the fluctuation of spiritual power is abnormal. The third is the same method that I used in the West Valley. I will let the Demon Beasts help us look for it. They are more familiar with the terrain here. Maybe they might find something.”
“Little Jiu, the second method is basically useless. We have almost run all over this place, but we haven’t found any abnormal spiritual power fluctuations. We can only try the first and third moves.”
“Okay! Then I’ll try to lure out the Wu Yun by cursing it!”
After saying that, Yun Chujiu began to curse at the rune spirit with her hands on her waist. Her cursing was so dry that it did not have any effect. Yun Chujiu asked everyone to help her curse it, but it still did not have any effect. Apparently, the rune spirit here did not fall for her trick.
Yun Chujiu had no choice but to let out the demon beasts from the spirit beast bag. After waking them up, she told them about the incident. The demon beasts were even more intelligent than the ones in the West Valley. They immediately understood Yun Chujiu’s meaning, but one by one, they shook their heads. It meant that they had lived here for hundreds or even thousands of years without discovering any abnormal spiritual fluctuations.
Everyone was discouraged. It was over. The Little Devil’s three methods had all failed. Could it be that they could only await their deaths here?!
