Another person disappeared.

Chapter 65: Demonic Trap

General Xu, who was walking at the back, rushed over upon hearing the noise, and his face turned pale after hearing the situation.

Another person disappeared, and the situation was exactly the same as the previous one. He disappeared in the blink of an eye, without any spiritual fluctuations.

The remaining monks were in an uproar. Everyone felt insecure and dared not move forward.

General Xu thought for a long time with a gloomy face, and finally made the difficult decision to return the same way!

Rather than continuing to move forward and risking the monks disappearing again, it is better to withdraw first, support the other two teams, and then explore later.

After General Xu made the decision, he immediately led everyone back along the original path and walked out of this deep and strange cave.

"Oh no! Cheng Yun is missing!" someone exclaimed at this time.

"Yin You is missing too! He was right next to Cheng Yun just now!" Soon other voices were heard.

General Xu immediately counted the number of people and found that only Yin You and Cheng Yun were missing.

The situation was urgent, so he did not hesitate too much. After leaving two people to guard the cave, he led the rest to the other two teams, hoping to finish the matters on the other two sides as soon as possible, and then come back together to explore the cave and look for the missing monk.

After everyone left, the remaining two looked at each other, silently retreated, hid on a tree canopy, looked at the cave from afar, and waited for everyone to come back.

And somewhere in the cave, Yin You slowly opened his eyes.

He was now in a spacious and dark cave, with Cheng Yun and the two people who had disappeared before beside him, all of whom were unconscious.

Not far from them, several figures formed a circle with a bonfire in the middle, emitting a faint light.

These people did not notice Yin You's gaze and talked in low voices.

"It's really unlucky. In order to avoid the blockade of the top sects and the Taoist Alliance, we specially chose this dynasty to hide for many years. After making all preparations, we dared to invite the devil to come. How could we run into such a person?"

"Don't blame us. This imperial master has lived in the palace for many years. We got too little intelligence and underestimated him."

"In my opinion, this national teacher must be from a top force in the Southern Region, otherwise he wouldn't know so many magic skills against the demons."

"There is nothing much to say now. Since we have chosen to become vassals of the demons, we can only go down this path to the end."

"Yes, although the national teacher is very skilled, we are not without a chance of winning. Lord Tianmo has already laid a trap in the Liyun Mountains. We only need to destroy all the monks who are supporting Yunxi City, and we can lure the national teacher here. By then, even if he has supernatural powers, he will not be able to escape death."

"General Xu is also cautious. He retreated after a few people disappeared. He must have gone to support other teams."

"It doesn't matter. They can't escape even if they jump around." Someone sneered.

"Wait for the signal from others."

After discussing for a while, they gradually quieted down.

Yin You, who was standing by, listened to their discussion and understood what was going on.

This is a conspiracy!

The demons' actions in the imperial capital were severely suppressed, so they left some kind of trap in the Liyun Mountains in an attempt to lure the imperial master.

Yin You even thought of something deeper. During the previous discussion in Yun Mansion, some cultivators had wondered about the cause of this beast tide.

Yunxi City is backed by the Lieyun Mountains. Every few years, the number of ferocious beasts in the Lieyun Mountains will increase, forming a beast tide to attack Yunxi City. This is not a strange thing.

But this beast tide happened only three years after the last one!

The cultivator who raised the question said that although the time of each beast tide in Yunxi City was different, it was generally between ten and twenty years, and the shortest was only eight years. However, this time the beast tide occurred again only three years later. This was a very strange phenomenon!

After he raised the question, other cultivators also agreed with it. However, after discussing for a long time, they did not come up with any useful clues. In the end, they could only attribute this strange phenomenon to the increasingly rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Yin You originally thought so, but after listening to what those monks who had surrendered to the demons said, he had another guess.

There may be demons behind this beast tide!

The purpose is to attract monks to support Yunxi City. First of all, it can reduce the pressure of the demons in the imperial capital. Secondly, after these monks of noble status and extraordinary cultivation are buried in the Lieyun Mountains, it will definitely attract more powerful monks to come and find out the truth about their deaths. In the entire Tianyun Dynasty, only the National Master has such strength, and only the National Master dares to come and investigate the truth!

At this time, the demons in the Imperial Capital were almost completely wiped out, and the few remaining small fish and shrimps were hiding everywhere and dared not show up. The National Master would definitely let down his guard in the Imperial Capital and come to the Liyun Mountains, and then he would fall into the trap set by the demons!

Thinking of this, Yin You was shocked.

"How to do!"

Yin You’s mind was racing, thinking about how to break the impasse.

He happened to glance at the three unconscious people beside him, and especially when he saw Cheng Yun's figure, his eyes suddenly lit up!

That’s right, just do it!

Yin You tried to untie the ropes on his body. These shiny black ropes should be some kind of spiritual weapons. Not only were they tied very tightly, but they also had a mysterious power that imprisoned the spiritual energy and divine thoughts in his body.

Fortunately, Yin You learned a lot of secret methods of breaking the ban from Yin Ci. The secret method of breaking the ban, as the name suggests, is to break the ban. After he tried many secret methods of breaking the ban, he finally slowly untied the rope.

After quietly untying the rope, Yin You released his divine consciousness, slowly extending it towards the people around the campfire.

Yin You's divine consciousness method was extremely mysterious. Those people did not notice anything unusual and continued to sit by the campfire, seemingly practicing.

A moment later, Yin You learned about the cultivation levels of these people. They were all cultivators in the late seventh realm!

These people posed no threat to Yin You. Even without using the method of divine possession, he was confident that he could kill them easily.

But Yin You did not alert the enemy. He stared at the people sitting by the campfire, and with one hand behind his back, he quietly cast a spell.

With Yin You's special method of hiding his aura, those people didn't notice anything unusual.

Upon seeing this, Yin You performed a few more spells and secret methods, and when he found that they were still sitting by the campfire, he smiled quietly.

Then Yin You whispered in his heart: "Isolate the world."

In an instant, only Yin You and Cheng Yun were left in the entire cave, and the rest of the people disappeared.

Isolating heaven and earth, this is a domain magical power that Yin You learned from Yin Ci. Just as its name suggests, it can drag the caster into another space. Of course, the caster can also drag other people in.

They were still in the cave at this time, but in a different space from other people, so they could not see each other or sense each other's breath.

After doing all this, Yin You used magic to wake up Cheng Yun.

When Cheng Yun opened his eyes, he saw Yin You’s smiling face.

Chapter 66 Identity

Cheng Yun was startled at first, and subconsciously looked around. Seeing no one, he turned his gaze back to Yin You.

"Fellow Daoist Yin You, where is this?"

His simple and honest face was full of confusion. He seemed to not understand how he suddenly arrived here when he was just walking in the pitch-black cave.

Yin You smiled and said, "Guess."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Yun's face darkened slightly: "The other two teams are still waiting for us to support them. Daoist Brother Yin You, do you still want to joke around here?"

"Oh?"

Yin You asked curiously: "How do you know they need our support?"

Cheng Yun was stunned for a moment, then hesitantly said, "We followed the guidance of the disaster avoidance disk into the cave, and encountered a strange phenomenon that even Elder Xu could not detect. Several monks disappeared right before our eyes. If we had not turned back in time, I am afraid that the entire team would have been buried here."

"Look, even we are in such a dangerous situation here, so the other two teams will definitely encounter some strange phenomena. If we don't go to support them quickly, they may..."

Cheng Yun kept talking, but seeing that Yin You was smiling the whole time and didn't interrupt him, he slowly stopped talking.

"When did you find out?" He had a gloomy face and a grim tone.

Yin You was not surprised at his change at all, his expression remained the same, and he said, "I noticed it from the beginning."

Cheng Yun was silent, not knowing what he was thinking. After a while, he asked coldly, "Where are the others?"

He was obviously referring to the unconscious monks in the cave and the monks who were watching over them by the campfire.

Cheng Yun didn’t know that those people were still in the same cave with him, but they couldn’t see each other because of Yin You’s magical power that isolated the heaven and earth.

Yin You did not explain to him, but asked: "How much do you know about this plan?"

Cheng Yun's expression changed: "What plan?"

Seeing that he was still trying to play dumb, Yin You said directly: "It is the plan to set a trap in the Liyun Mountains to lure the national teacher here."

"Where did you hear that?" Cheng Yun's eyes, which were faintly tinged with dark energy, stared at Yin You's face, as if he wanted to infer some clues from his expression.

Yin You sighed: "Don't answer questions with questions."

Before Cheng Yun could say anything, he saw ripples in Yin You's eyes, attracting his attention.

Soon, Cheng Yun felt dizzy and lost consciousness.

When Yin You saw his dull face and lifeless eyes, he knew that the secret technique had been successful.

The secret technique he used was called Bewitching the Soul, which, as the name suggests, was to control people's souls and make them speak the truth and answer any questions.

This secret technique involves the soul, and the conditions for performing it are more difficult than ordinary secret techniques. To be honest, Yin You is not sure if he can perform it successfully.

He had planned to hear it from Cheng Yun himself, but this man was suspicious and always avoided questions. He would definitely not tell the truth in a short period of time. Time was pressing at this time, and Yin You had no time to argue with him. In desperation, he could only use his magic to confuse the mind. Fortunately, he succeeded.

Yin You wasted no time and asked, "Who planned to set a trap in the Liyun Mountains to lure the Imperial Master here?"

Cheng Yun's face was dull, and he said calmly, "Lord Xuankui decided it."

"Who is Xuan Kui?"

"Lord Xuankui is an Eighth Realm Demon who came to the Tianyun Dynasty ten years ago. He is responsible for all matters concerning the Demon Realm in the Tianyun Dynasty." Cheng Yun said.

A guess came to Yin You's mind, and he asked, "You said in the cave that the Imperial Master had fought with an Eighth Realm Demon this morning. Was the Eighth Realm Demon that was seriously injured and escaped Xuan Kui?"

Cheng Yun nodded stiffly: "Yes, Lord Xuankui, but the illusion of escaping with serious injuries is just to confuse the national teacher. Lord Xuankui has long known that there is a powerful formation in the imperial capital. The national teacher is blessed by the formation and has great strength."

"Master Xuankui had already sent out cultivators to lay a trap in the Liyun Mountains long before the action was taken. He then caused a stir in the imperial capital and pretended to fail in order to lower the vigilance of the imperial master. After destroying the team that came to support Yunxi City, he sent out cultivators to tip off the emperor, falsely claiming that an eighth-level beast had appeared in the Liyun Mountains and that the imperial master would come in person. By then, when he stepped into the trap, he would be unable to escape."

Yin You pondered for a moment, then asked, "Why is he so confident that he can lure the Imperial Master here? There is no way that such a huge Tianyun Dynasty has only one cultivator of the eighth realm, right?"

Cheng Yunzhi answered all the questions: "Besides the Imperial Master, the Tianyun Dynasty is the only one in the Tianyun Royal Family who has an Eighth Realm cultivator. However, that Eighth Realm cultivator is nearing the end of his life, his Qi and blood are declining, and he has been hiding in seclusion in the Imperial Palace for many years, and it is unknown whether he is alive or dead."

"Only the Imperial Master can take action in this matter. It just so happens that the situation in the Imperial Capital has been determined. Even if the Emperor does not want to send the Imperial Master, under the pressure from other forces in the Imperial Capital, he will definitely send him to deal with the Eight Realms Ferocious Beast."

Yin You nodded and asked, "What dangers are there in the other two places?"

Cheng Yun's face seemed to twitch: "The team led by Yun Motian is heading to a psychedelic forest. There is a natural formation in it. It was originally just a trap formation, but after being transformed by Master Xuankui, it became an evil formation with killing means."

"The team led by Peng Qing is heading to a sea of ​​man-eating flowers, which is full of ancient flower-like beasts with ferocious temperaments. When they are still, they are inconspicuous and the scenery is beautiful, but once prey walks into the sea of ​​flowers, they will suddenly attack and tear the prey to pieces."

Yun Motian is the real name of Master Yun, and Peng Qing is the leader of the other team.

Yin You asked Cheng Yun some more questions, and Cheng Yun answered them one by one.

Seeing that Cheng Yun's face was not only distorted, but even his eyes seemed to twitch slightly, Yin You knew that he was about to break free from the control of the bewitching mind, and asked him the question that concerned him the most: "Is the Eighth Realm Demon in the Liyun Mountains now?"

Cheng Yun's face and eyes were trembling: "Yes."

Yin You quickly asked, "Where is he?"

Cheng Yun's face was covered with sweat, and he said with difficulty: "Just..."

The next moment, Cheng Yun suddenly fainted and his whole body fell forward.

Yin You leaned over and found that Cheng Yun's spirit was as weak as a candle in the wind and he was close to death.

"The way of the spirit and soul is indeed dangerous and unpredictable." Yin You sighed, knowing that it was caused by the loss of mind due to the bewilderment.

He was not proficient in the art of the soul, and although he performed it successfully, something must have gone wrong, which continued to drain Cheng Yun's soul.

Yin You personally ended Cheng Yun's life.

Then he used some secret technique and transformed into Cheng Yun's appearance, while Cheng Yun, who was lying on the ground, transformed into his appearance.

Yin You condensed ice in front of him as a mirror. After seeing that there was no difference, he put Cheng Yun, who had been tied up again, back to his position, and then he came to Cheng Yun's position.

The next moment, Yin You lifted the barrier that isolated heaven and earth and returned to the cave.

Chapter 67: Blending in

Because when Yin You used the power to isolate heaven and earth, he also left behind illusions of himself and Cheng Yun in the original place, so the people around the campfire did not notice anything unusual, and they did not know that Yin You had killed Cheng Yun and replaced him right under their noses.

Yin You did not act rashly, but continued to pretend to be unconscious.

About half a day later, the two monks who had disappeared in the cave before them woke up.
