Chapter 499: Constant Attempts

~7 min read 1,305 words

The array connecting the Yinjian and the Cangming Jie was called the Descent Shuttle Array. Its core was an array disk created by several True Monarch-level Shen Gui that had been specially refined.

The spatial power mastered by these True Monarch-level Shen Gui allowed this Descent Shuttle Array to achieve cross-boundary travel. For a large sect, such an array could be said to be an extremely important wealth.

In fact, it was quite difficult to manufacture such an array; at least Lin Feng had not obtained the relevant manufacturing method from Han Ji.

Wang Qijiang drove his artifact and hurried along, finally arriving at the location of the Descent Shuttle Array. There were also several sect powerhouses guarding this place, but their strength was still a gap away from those Guixian.

"Stop!"

Just as Wang Qijiang flew here, an eerie voice immediately rang in his ears, causing his body to tremble instinctively, but he calmed down immediately afterward.

"Disciple obeys!"

"Why did you return alone?"

Then the voice sounded again. Wang Qijiang immediately organized his emotions, then made an expression of hatred and replied to the other party: "Disciple Wang Qijiang was betrayed by fellow disciples and almost died. If it weren't for good luck, I would have already been buried in the mouth of a Zai Gui!"

"This time, the disciple returned to report this matter to the sect, hoping that the elders and others will make the decision for me!"

Although his elders had a certain status in the sect, he knew when to bring it up and when to endure it. For example, he could not mention his elders' identity at this moment.

"Hehe, exploring secret realms is a matter of nine deaths and one life. Life and death are determined by fate, and opportunities are determined by heaven. If you are not skilled enough and die, then you die!"

As expected, the other party's tone did not change in the slightest; instead, they said these words coldly.

"Yes, disciple is wrong!"

However, Wang Qijiang knew very well that the other party was not specifically saying this to him, but to everyone present. Only by understanding the danger here could one survive.

"Forget it. Seeing that you are still honest, you can leave now. However, opportunities only come once. You cannot come again after leaving. Do you understand?"

Finally, the voice seemed a bit tired and asked Wang Qijiang directly.

"Yes, disciple understands. I hope the elder will grant it!"

How could Wang Qijiang dare to stay in the Yinjian? Before coming, he was full of confidence, thinking that he could have a harvest with the magic treasure in his hand. As a result, he encountered a Zai Gui due to a moment of carelessness. God knows what else he would encounter next.

What if he encountered even more terrifying Jie Gui or even Shen Gui next? He heard that several teams had been wiped out. He did not want to follow in their footsteps.

"Go!"

Then he only heard the voice ring in his ears, and then a brilliant light enveloped him. A moment later, his whole person was constantly elongated like a stretched noodle and flew to another place.

He didn't know how long it had been, but he finally felt that the despairing darkness and distortion before his eyes were gone. After standing firm, he had already left the Yinjian and returned to the Cangming Jie.

But at this moment, a huge bronze treasure mirror above his head suddenly bloomed with infinite light, instantly enveloping him!

"Ah! Spare my life!"

Encountering this situation, he almost instinctively began to beg for mercy, but then the light suddenly disappeared, leaving him completely unable to understand what had happened.

——————

"Sister, no, we were discovered!"

"Yes, possessing a person directly definitely won't work!"

"Tell Master!"

"Hmm, we can try other methods next!"

"..."

In a place in the Yinjian, the Shuangzi Gui slowly revealed their figures and began to communicate. The moment they left the Cangming Jie, they felt an extremely strong sense of crisis, and then they withdrew their incarnations almost without any hesitation.

"Hmm, I know."

"If you can't possess them directly, then try attaching yourselves to the Guiyi they capture. If that really doesn't work, find an opportunity to change the memories and will of some Guidao Xiushi, so that after they leave, they will find a way to summon you to the Cangming Jie."

Lin Feng was not surprised by the result reported by the Shuangzi Gui. After all, if those large sects in the Cangming Jie didn't even have this bit of ability, they should have been wiped out long ago.

So he thought for a moment and told them two other plans. Those Guidao Xiushi were here to capture Guiyi, so they would naturally bring those Guiyi out. By mixing in with the crowd, they might be able to deceive that kind of secret treasure.

Another way was to directly change and twist the memories and will of those Guidao Xiushi, making them work for him unknowingly, and then summon the Shuangzi Gui to the Cangming Jie through a special ritual.

Relatively speaking, both methods were safer, but whether they could succeed in the end still needed to be tried one by one.

"Understood!"

Hearing Lin Feng's arrangement, the Shuangzi Gui agreed without any hesitation. For them, no matter what method it was, it would only cost some time.

"Hmm, go. Still the same words: if you are discovered, do not hesitate to withdraw your incarnations immediately!"

Seeing that they understood what to do next, Lin Feng did not say anything more. After such a long time of learning and training, the Shuangzi Gui could now be said to be subordinates Lin Feng was very reassured about.

The only pity was that their current strength was not strong enough, especially after being promoted to Shen Gui, their growth rate had slowed down a lot. Even with enough offerings, it would take a considerable amount of time to grow up.

Lin Feng was also reluctant to use the method of pulling up seedlings to help them grow forcibly through sacrificial rituals, so he could only cultivate them slowly. However, it seemed now that this cultivation method was correct.

Compared to the Tou Gui or other Guiyi with diverse abilities, although they only specialized in their own abilities, their mastery of this ability had reached an extremely high level.

At the very least, even a Guixian could not easily discover their existence without them getting close!

Soon, the Shuangzi Gui found some Guidao Xiushi again and began to try a new smuggling plan. This time, for the sake of safety, they specifically selected a few waves of people to try.

Those captured Guiyi would be sealed into various artifacts. The Shuangzi Gui naturally looked down on these artifacts; with their ability, entering or leaving was an easy task.

So soon their incarnations followed some Guidao Xiushi out of the Yinjian. However, this time it still triggered the reaction of that secret treasure, which forced the Shuangzi Gui to abandon this method.

"Sister, it seems we can only capture people!"

"Yes, I hope this works, otherwise it will be troublesome!"

"That's right, I think that secret treasure can definitely detect whether a Guiyi has intelligence, otherwise how could we not deceive it?"

"It should be like that. Alright, hurry up and capture people, be quick!"

After failing again, the Shuangzi Gui had to start trying the third plan. Capturing Guidao Xiushi was not difficult for them, and they could even do it without anyone noticing.

Soon they found a team of Guidao Xiushi, and then an invisible force instantly spread out, and this team of Guidao Xiushi instantly disappeared as if they had never appeared. ===== CHAPTER 500 =====
