Chapter 291 Confrontation with the Enemy
After Huang Shengxin, who injured half of his arm, took a healing pill, the injury on his hand quickly improved. After standing up, he frowned and looked around.
"He has been injured and cannot run far. He must be hiding in this forest. Let's search together and never let this person go." Huang Shengxin just finished speaking and took the lead into the woods ahead.
He also felt that the opponent's injuries from the blow just now were not lighter than his own. Seeing that Cheng Yilong had already achieved a good deed, Huang Shengxin could not give him a chance to escape.
This forest was only five or six miles in radius. Song Qingming and the four of them divided into two teams and walked around in it several times. The strange thing was that they didn't see any sign of Cheng Yilong.
Seeing no one there, Huang Shengxin became a little anxious, and he and Huang Shengyue went to search on a hill not far away from the woods.
"Fellow Daoist Song, you keep searching here. I'll go see what's going on with fellow Taoist Gao. I'll also send some Qi Refining monks over to dig this place over again. I don't believe I can't find any trace of this guy."
Seeing that Cheng Yilong could not be found in this forest, Lu Yuanfeng needed to expand the search area. They just didn't have enough manpower, so he discussed with Song Qingming and went to mobilize manpower to come back to help. Song Qingming had no objection to this.
Unexpectedly, he had already severely injured this person, but he hid him again. Although Song Qingming and others had searched several times but could not find any trace of Cheng Yilong, everyone believed that this guy must have been hiding somewhere nearby before he had time to escape. It's just that it's not easy to search in the middle of the night, so he has the opportunity to hide. When dawn comes, Lu Yuanfeng will bring in people to pull the net to investigate, and he will definitely be able to find this guy soon.
After Lu Yuanfeng left, Song Qingming walked around the woods again but still couldn't find any clues. He wanted to find a high position where he could easily see the nearby place, and waited until Lu Yuanfeng brought people over to support him.
Just when Song Qingming wanted to find a place to rest for a while, he suddenly felt a wave of spiritual power coming from the lower left side of his body. This wave was only a slight one. If Song Qingming hadn't practiced the Soul Forging Art, his spiritual consciousness would be three points stronger than ordinary people. , it was difficult for him to capture this change.
After turning around and landing on the ground, Song Qingming took out the fire pattern sword and looked around cautiously.
There is a big tree in front that can be hugged by three people. The lush branches and leaves cover the entire area under its branches. There is a very empty place under the big tree with no shelter. Song Qingming also passed by here during the previous search. At that time, I even checked the tree carefully and saw nothing strange.
"Is there some monster hiding around here?" Song Qingming approached the big tree and checked again, but still found nothing abnormal. He also felt that he might have sensed it wrong just now.
Just when Song Qingming shook his head and turned around to leave, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a root extending out from the side of the big tree and realized something was wrong.
"This is a concealment formation."
Unexpectedly, Cheng Yilong is still a very high-level formation master. In such a short time, he actually arranged a set of formations to hide himself. The level of this formation seemed to be higher than his own. With the cover of night, no wonder they had previously He was passing by and didn't notice it. If he hadn't made some noise inside just now, Song Qingming wouldn't have noticed it at all.
After discovering Cheng Yilong's hiding place, Song Qingming had no intention of taking action. Although Cheng Yilong had been injured, this person's cultivation level was much higher than him, and he also had many life-saving spiritual objects on him. It was very possible for him to rush up there rashly. Will suffer the same loss as Huang Shengxin.
Anyway, this guy won't be able to escape for a while, so there is no need for him to take this risk. To be prudent, Song Qingming still plans to pretend that he didn't notice any abnormality, leave here first, and then notify the two Huang family members who are nearby. It would be a sure thing to deal with Cheng Yilong together.
Song Qingming deliberately looked around at other places with a calm expression, and then slowly walked forward with a calm expression, wanting to search through the big tree.
Just when Song Qingming was about to leave the area under the big tree, he suddenly felt a cold murderous intention coming from his body. He had been prepared for it and quickly used his strongest defensive weapon, the Bishui Bell, to kill his entire body. People are covered inside.
After a bang, Cheng Yilong revealed his figure, holding a sharp black long knife in his hand and looking fiercely at Song Qingming who was hiding in the Bishui Clock.
Cheng Yilong is worthy of being an old fox who has practiced for more than a hundred years. Although Song Qingming had acted very naturally just now, he still could not escape his sharp eyes.
When fighting several people before, Cheng Yilong was forced to have no choice, so he used his heart to use Tianxin Lei and Huang Shengxin fought to the death. He temporarily hid in the forest, borrowing the formation to hide himself, thinking that he had obtained it. With this glimmer of hope, he didn't expect that Song Qingming and the others were still not far away from here after searching for so long. He also understood that if he didn't find a way to escape before dawn, he would also be exposed.
Just when he thought there was no one around and wanted to leave the formation and escape secretly, Song Qingming, who was patrolling nearby, found a trace.
The only person he saw was Song Qingming, who had the lowest level of cultivation among the people. Cheng Yilong thought that he would not be exposed, but he did not expect that Song Qingming's formation level was not low either. After some inspection, he discovered the clues and saw that he had already Exposed, Cheng Yilong decisively stepped out of the formation and attacked Song Qingming.
Fortunately, Song Qingming was well prepared and did not let his sneak attack succeed. Both of them had their own plans.
After failing to hit him, Cheng Yilong did not give up. He once again ignored his injuries and concentrated his mana on the black knife in his hand to slash more than ten times with all his strength, hoping to break Song Qingming's defense with his higher cultivation.
However, the Bishui Bell in Song Qingming's hand was indeed not an ordinary item. Facing Cheng Yilong's fierce attack like raindrops, although Song Qingming's mana was not as strong as Cheng Yilong's, he was hit a little shaken, but it still covered Song Qingming's head firmly.
Seeing that the defensive magic weapon on Song Qingming was extraordinary, Cheng Yilong, who had been unable to attack, suddenly stopped attacking, took out a jade box from his body and threw it aside, and said to Song Qingming: "I don't have a deep hatred with you, so there is really no need to fight to the death. There is a third-level spiritual medicine in this jade box. Please don't force me anymore. What do you think?" Song Qingming took a look at the jade box thrown aside, and immediately turned his eyes away without being tempted by it. He didn't believe that Cheng Yilong was really going to use a third-level spiritual medicine to buy his life.
