375: Xiaobai takes action

Song Zhan's killing intent was palpable, his only thought was to eliminate the opponent first.

But Shangguan Qianxue spoke, "He seems to have found the key to breaking the Formation. We can wait for him to open the tomb before we act."

If the opponent could truly break the Formation successfully, then with the two of them working together, taking down the opponent would definitely not be a problem.

Moreover, this could save them a lot of effort.

Hearing this, Song Zhan said coldly, "Didn't you notice that the woman of royal birth who was following him isn't here?"

From beginning to end, only Zhou Luo appeared.

He didn't believe that the woman named Long was dead. If she were truly dead, the opponent wouldn't have been able to escape.

The only explanation was that the opponent wasn't dead, but might have been restricted by something.

Delay breeds change.

If they waited until the opponent broke the Array Formation and that person also came here, it would be a two-on-two situation.

Shangguan Qianxue stared at that figure, silent.

She had to admit that Senior Brother's words were correct, but she suddenly felt in her heart that the opponent would definitely succeed in breaking the Formation.

In that case, they wouldn't have to expend effort breaking the Formation themselves.

While she hesitated, Song Zhan had already approached the opponent.

He held a large saber in his hand, its snowy white blade reflecting his face filled with killing intent. His sharp eyes were fixed on the back of the opponent's neck.

As long as the opponent hadn't entered the Nascent Soul Realm, losing their head would result in immediate death, and even a Grand Luo Immortal wouldn't be able to save them.

Seeing that he was already one foot behind Zhou Luo, and sensing that the opponent truly had no reaction, Song Zhan raised the large saber in his hand without hesitation and fiercely struck down.

Meow—

Just then, a cat's meow sounded in his ear.

The next second, the scene before him began to twist and deform, followed by a giant beast roaring out. Its gaping bloody maw felt as if it were right in front of him, filled with a scent of blood.

A trace of panic flashed in Song Zhan's eyes, but he determined that this was an illusion, so the movement in his hand did not stop, and he struck down heavily.

Roar—

When the large saber struck the giant beast, the opponent let out a deafening roar, and waves of hot air surged out, pushing Song Zhan's entire body back several steps.

He immediately realized that he was already in an illusion.

This startled him.

One must know that he was a Second-Order Formation Master, with powerful Divine Sense.

If someone were to make him enter an illusion, he would likely be able to react.

But why did he not sense anything just now?

Could it be a method left by that Golden Core True Person?

Song Zhan felt instant regret, regretting his carelessness, that he had been silently invaded by an illusion again.

It was also somewhat related to his recent recovery from poisoning.

If not for the poison confusing his mind and damaging his Divine Sense, he would have been able to sense it.

He wouldn't have become so passive.

At this moment, the condensed giant beast was already rushing towards him, its ferocious power seemingly capable of destroying the sky and the earth.

Song Zhan didn't dare to be careless and immediately activated his magic power to resist.

Generally, illusions in an illusionary realm can be ignored, but since the opponent could make him silently enter the illusionary Array Formation, it indicated that the level of this illusionary Array Formation itself was very high.

Often, in such illusionary Array Formations, the illusions inside cannot be ignored.

Although it is fake, if you are injured under the illusion, your mind will also be impacted.

Therefore, Song Zhan had to fully focus on dealing with it.

Meanwhile, in the outside world, Shangguan Qianxue's pupils constricted as she watched her Senior Brother suddenly become motionless, and the white spiritual cat that appeared on Zhou Luo's shoulder.

She sensed a powerful aura on the opponent.

That aura was even stronger than hers.

This was a Second Order spiritual beast, and the power it contained far exceeded imagination.

Especially those crystal blue eyes flowing with strange light, the vast illusionary power they emitted suddenly gave her a sense of déjà vu.

In an instant, she felt as if she had returned to the Magic Forest back then.

"Was this left by that Golden Core True Person, or is it Zhou Luo's?"

Two thoughts popped into Shangguan Qianxue's mind.

Bai was also staring at her, its entire body covered in a faint spiritual glow, and streams of illusionary power continuously surged towards Song Zhan, preventing him from escaping the illusion.

Shangguan Qianxue pursed her lips, feeling that things were becoming a bit troublesome.

She took a step forward, preparing to interrupt the opponent first.

Meow—

At this moment, Bai let out another cry.

The crisp sound caused ripples in the air, and a vast wave of illusionary power surged out, about to envelop Shangguan Qianxue.

The illusionary power came suddenly and with fierce power. Without Cultivation Methods or treasures that could clear the mind and dispel illusions, there was no way to resist.

She tried to tightly lock her mind, silently reciting Cultivation Methods to clear her mind.

But when that illusionary power surged towards her like a tide, her Sea of Consciousness was immediately greatly impacted.

And under that impact, she almost lost control of her mind and fell into the illusion.

She quickly retreated, and the opponent did not pursue relentlessly, but those crystal blue eyes kept staring at her.

Shangguan Qianxue realized that this might have been left by the Senior who bestowed the great Opportunity upon Zhou Luo.

She didn't expect the opponent to still have such a trump card.

Shangguan Qianxue's beautiful eyes flickered slightly.

If she forcefully acted, she could indeed rescue her Senior Brother and then cooperate with her Senior Brother to defeat the opponent.

But the cost involved in this was immeasurable.

Especially the sudden appearance of this Second Order spiritual beast made Shangguan Qianxue realize that the opponent likely had other trump cards.

At this time, all aspects must be considered.

Because the opponent also had a group of children in the Immortal Sect.

Perhaps these people currently didn't have much influence, but what about in the long run?

If they formed a grudge with the opponent at this time, it might be difficult to get along in the future.

"We won't harm him, you release my Senior Brother."

But Bai didn't believe her and still stood there, releasing illusionary power.

"How about this, you can trap my Senior Brother, but you are not allowed to harm him, otherwise, even if I exhaust all my strength, I will kill your Master."

Helplessly, Shangguan Qianxue had to take another step back.

Meow—

At this moment, Bai lightly called out, choosing to agree.

Shangguan Qianxue could only stand to the side, quietly waiting.

Time slowly passed. Under the influence of Bai's illusionary power, Song Zhan remained unconscious, but his breathing was steady, and he didn't seem to be in any danger.

On the other side, Zhou Luo had already broken through four levels of the illusionary Formation and reached the fifth level.

At this time, Zhao Zhixuan was only one step away from the Golden Core Realm.

He had just emerged from the Secret Realm, a smile on his face, seemingly having just obtained some treasure.

And at this moment, he saw Zhou Luo not far away at a glance.

"Daoist friend, I didn't expect to meet you again."

The next moment, his steps were like wind, and in the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of the opponent.

Zhou Luo showed vigilance, and the Fuyao Magic Sword appeared in his hand.
