C1058 The Truth Is Clear
Lin Yuqian was confused by her words, but she had a confused look on her face as she looked at his big brother: "What is he saying?"
Since Chu Yan had pointed it out, and adding the current situation, most of the cultivators present already understood what was going on.
Lin Yushan's expression was extremely ugly at this moment.
Hearing his sister's question, he did not answer, but pulled out his blade and slashed towards Xia Shang who was in the crowd.
Xia Shang did not move, as if he did not sense it at all.
"Big brother, what are you doing? Are you crazy …"
Lin Yuqian screamed involuntarily.
However, before she could finish her words, she opened her eyes wide in shock as she looked at the scene before her.
Right in front of her, although Xia Shang's body was split into two, not a single drop of blood flowed out.
After a moment, the two halves of his body, which had visible cracks in them, gradually became faint, faded, and disappeared like a painting made of ink.
Lin Yuqian felt that her brain was no longer sufficient.
"What … What is going on?" she stammered.
"A mirror image created by a formation." The one who spoke out was the white robed cultivator that Chu Yan had met before in the tavern.
The white robed cultivator squinted his eyes, looking at Xia Shang with killing intent.
"He used this mirror image to lure us here, while he himself was hiding on the other side.
If I'm not wrong, the place where we're standing right now is probably a killing formation.
His own place, however, is the safest. "
What the white-robed cultivator was saying at this moment was what most people were guessing in their hearts.
"But … But why would he do that?" Lin Yuqian still didn't understand.
Even though they had only interacted with each other for a short few days, the feeling Xia Shang gave her before was that of a big brother who cared for everyone at every turn.
He gathered everyone to search for the treasure.
He hoped they wouldn't have to fight.
He hoped that everyone would get something out of it.
He even prepared a defensive formation to protect them from the purple fog.
"Maybe he wants the treasures here." Chu Yan looked at Xia Shang and said, "But just with his strength alone, he won't be able to obtain any treasures.
So he needed to draw a pie and trick a bunch of people into taking the bait.
One must know that other than him, no one else could understand what was written on the stone slab.
It may be that there are treasures here, but there are dangers as well.
He needed some people to die before the danger would be resolved.
So he brought us here.
When we were his scapegoats, he would be free to hunt for treasures.
After all, once we return, who would know what would happen here? "
"Yes …" Is that right? " Lin Yuqian was gradually coming back to reality.
"But I have some doubts. When did he set up the formation that you spoke of earlier?" The white robed cultivator asked Chu Yan.
"Water Mirror Suspending Moon Formation." Chu Yan repeated himself and then continued, "It might be when he was activating the defensive wave diagram.
As long as the array formation is hidden in the array and the light of the defensive array is used to hide it, then he can hide his body without a hitch. "
When everyone heard Chu Yan's explanation, they suddenly remembered.
At that time, everyone was very anxious, and almost no one noticed Xia Shang.
Furthermore, that yellow light was indeed very dazzling, attracting everyone's attention. Who would have noticed that what Xia Shang activated was not a single array, but two?
"Xia Shang, you are so vicious, you actually want us to be your scapegoats!" The killing intent on the white-robed cultivator's face grew even stronger.
When the others thought about how they were treated like pawns and how they nearly died without knowing the reason, all of them gritted their teeth and wished that they could slice Xia Shang into a thousand pieces.
However, the current Xia Shang, was no longer as calm as when he had been exposed by Chu Yan earlier.
He looked at Chu Yan and said lightly: "I believe that in these few days, I did not reveal the slightest bit of flaw, so I want to know, when did you figure out my problem?
Or could it be, where did I make a mistake and you found me? "
Chu Yan snorted coldly, and did not reply.
Of course he wouldn't tell the other party. In truth, he already knew that this so called Great Demonic Palace was a massive illusion array.
Almost everything inside was fake.
It was true that an illusion array could be made to look fake.
However, if you display a bunch of specific text and pattern information that even the original owner of this place doesn't know, then it would be very suspicious.
Seeing that Chu Yan was not going to speak, Xia Shang just sneered: "It doesn't matter if you don't speak, as long as I take care of you, the treasure that I deserve will still be mine."
"There's really a treasure here?" Chu Yan focused his gaze.
"Why do you think I trapped them there?" Xia Shang sneered, "Could it be that you think I randomly picked a place to surround them?"
Chu Yan immediately turned his head and looked in the direction of everyone.
The formation emitted a faint yellow light.
The purple smoke that continuously gushed out seemed to be afraid of the light coming from the defensive formation. Even the human-shaped figure that sucked in blood did not dare to approach it. It only dared to slowly circle around in the distance.
Chu Yan looked carefully.
The surrounding space was shrouded in a faint yellow light, as if it was covered by a curtain.
Not above, not on the left, not on the right, not behind, and certainly not in front.
Then the only possibility …
Below!
Chu Yan's line of sight, immediately focused on the area beneath everyone's feet.
Before, Chu Yan had never paid attention to them, but the main reason was because that group of people were squeezed together. There was basically no space for him to observe.
However, because Xia Shang's illusion was broken just now, everyone was worried that there was anything strange, so the place where the illusion stood was left empty.
From that area, Chu Yan immediately saw a slight change in the ground.
The black stone slab that had been lying on the ground earlier had now melted like wax.
In one of the areas, there was a bronze color.
"There's something down there!" Chu Yan's eyes flashed.
Once again seeing the stone board that was slowly melting, Chu Yan instantly understood everything.
"You want to use their blood to melt the stone!" Chu Yan shouted loudly.
When the people in the formation heard this, they were stunned.
"You're half right!" Right at this moment, Xia Shang made his move.
Liu Ming flicked his wrist and a folding fan that was half the height of a person appeared in his hand.
On the surface of the folding fan, lightning crackled, illuminating his face.
"The stone slabs are made of special materials and require a large amount of cultivator's blood to melt.
In addition, I also need to use their blood to feed those demon souls so that they will no longer pose a threat to me.
However, it's too late for you to know all this.
Because you are about to become a dead man! "
In the next moment, Xia Shang's entire body surged with killing intent, like a tide, it surged towards Chu Yan.
