A small casual cultivator!

Chapter 275 Small gains

Seeing that he was not in a good mood, Zhao Kaishan said, "There is nothing to be afraid of this ghost. Just treat it as an ordinary monster. Apart from being weird and being able to move freely on the island, it has no other advantages."

Lu Luan nodded and said, "It seems that I followed the right person, Fellow Daoist Zhao."

Zhao Kaishan added: "You are inexperienced. We have been here a few times before and have experience dealing with the dangers. You just need to follow in the middle."

"Thank you for your care, fellow Taoist."

Next, he walked at the back of the team. As for the front, it was naturally Zhao Kaishan who was leading the way with a black spear in his hand.

"Friend Lu, even though this island is dangerous, if you are lucky, your daily income can equal what you would earn in the sea for several months. To be honest, I still prefer to venture into Tianjue Island."

Han Yuan, who was close to him, said lightly.

"It would be great if the soul wasn't suppressed." Lu Luan responded.

"Yes, even the treasure-hunting discs and spirit beasts are useless here. Their abilities will be blocked by the special situation, and we have to rely on our eyes to find treasures. Of course, there are some illusion arrays, so what we see is not real. It is precisely because Tianjue Island is so special that some casual cultivators or demonic cultivators who have offended others will hide here, making it impossible to track them down."

Although several people were communicating, none of them let down their guard and were ready to respond to unexpected changes at any time.

"stop!"

As they walked, Zhao Kaishan suddenly stretched out his hand to signal everyone to stop, and looked forward with a serious gaze.

Several people also watched vigilantly, and saw that at a distance of forty feet, there were actually two figures of monsters shuttling through the woods.

"Brother, the monster in front is fake, an illusion."

Xiao Can said to him.

It has the advantage here. The truth and falsehood can be hidden from the eyes of everyone, but not from its perception.

"Illusion, it seems there is a natural illusion array ahead."

Lu Luan murmured in his heart.

At this time, Zhao Kaishan said: "Daoyou Lu, we have already gone deep into the periphery. There is a formation there. Follow us closely and don't get lost in it."

They have been here before, so they naturally know where the danger is.

Wu Yingyu also said: "Fellow Daoist Lu, this illusion array is very strange. Sometimes the soul is not restricted in it, but what the soul sees is fake. This is why many people cannot get out. However, we are familiar with this array, so we just need to move forward later."

"Fellow Daoist Lu, we may be attacked by some phantom monsters when we pass through the formation. After passing through this layer of formation, there will be an area with strong confinement force. If it were normal times, it would be very difficult for us to move in it, but today is the time when this confinement force is the weakest..."

Several people repeated the introduction to him, and before coming, they also told him about the conditions on the road.

They have been to this place before and spent a lot of time studying it in order to minimize the danger. Now they are familiar with its changes.

"Let's go."

The crowd moved forward again. Perhaps knowing the danger, they took out a defensive talisman and constructed a barrier to protect themselves.

"Hmm? Fellow Daoist Lu, don't you need it?"

Seeing that there was no defense, Sun Li frowned and asked.

Lu Luan explained: "The talisman is precious, and now is not the time to use it."

Sun Li added: "There may be some real monsters in the illusion array. Although the possibility is small, we must be on guard."

Lu Luan shook his head and stopped talking.

"Then Fellow Daoist Lu, please be careful. No matter whether what you see is true or false, you must take the initiative to defend yourself."

The others did not ask any more questions upon seeing this, as they knew that Lu Luan was also a casual cultivator and must be relatively poor, so he would be reluctant to use the talisman. After all, the lifespan of the talisman would be reduced every time it was activated.

In fact, Lu Luan’s storage ring is now very empty. Apart from the magic seedling, there are only some elixirs for restoring true essence and so on.

Of course, none of them had any intention of giving it. A defensive talisman costs dozens of intermediate spirit stones. For a casual cultivator in the early stage of foundation building, who wouldn't feel bad about giving it away?

Although they knew that the formation ahead might be dangerous, Zhao Kaishan and his companions did not plan to take a detour. They had opened up this road bit by bit and were familiar with the illusion formation. If they changed the route and ran into some unfamiliar formation, that would be really dangerous.

In fact, most of the casual cultivators who ventured on the island were like this, they had their own paths. Tianjue Island was not like the ocean where you could move around freely, otherwise you would definitely not survive.

Soon, everyone walked into the range of the illusion array.

"Ok?"

As soon as he entered, Lu Luan found that the other four people were gone, and in front of him was a sparse forest, as if he had been teleported to another place on the island.

At the same time, he expanded his soul and found that the power that restricted the spread of his soul was no longer there. Within the range of more than 400 feet that he could perceive, there was no trace of Zhao Kaishan and others.

He knew in his heart that what his soul saw were all illusions.

"Xiao Can, can you see clearly?"

Lu Luan asked.

Xiao Can said, "I can see clearly, brother. This illusion has no big impact on me. The people who came with you are only five meters in front of you. They are just isolated by the mysterious power in it. They can't see or sense it."

"This island is really strange," he couldn't help but sigh.

We didn't stay for long and just kept moving forward as they instructed.

"Roar!"

Suddenly, a giant green python hung on the tree in front of him, roaring at him and then biting him.

Lu Luan's expression remained unchanged as he walked forward on his own.

The giant python went straight through his chest and disappeared.

This is an illusion, Xiaocan reminded me.

Used to capture people's hearts.

But he still breathed a sigh of relief, thinking: "If there is a real monster in this formation, it will be difficult to distinguish the danger. It will be dangerous for ordinary people to encounter it."

This kind of truth and falsehood is the most difficult to deal with.

In the distance, Zhao Kaishan and four others moved forward slowly.

"Brother Zhao, do you think Fellow Daoist Lu will get lost in this illusion?"

Wu Yingyu asked with a hint of worry in her eyes.

The four of them knew how to avoid being disturbed by this formation, so they could see each other. This method was something they figured out bit by bit, and it was their secret, so they naturally wouldn't tell Lu Luan about it for no reason.

"There are no real monsters in this illusion array, so he won't be in any danger. But if he gets trapped in it, then he'll just have to hope for the best. If he can't even get through this, he'll just cause trouble for us later."

Zhao Kaishan had an indifferent expression.

"Friend Lu Dao seems to be a good person." Han Yuan said lightly.

"You know it in just a few days?" Sun Li looked at him.

"Is there any problem for you three to control the formation? If something unexpected happens to him later, you must be prepared." Zhao Kaishan asked.

"Don't worry, Brother Zhao, there won't be any big problems. If Fellow Daoist Lu comes along, the power will be greater." Sun Li said.

"That's good."

……

"Brother, there is a skeleton floating in the air over there. It seems to have been dead for many years."

After walking for a while, Xiao Can felt something and immediately reported it to him.

"Skeleton?"

Lu Luan stopped.

"Yes, it's human, and there's a storage ring on its finger."

"Where?" Lu Luan's mind suddenly moved.

It must be that someone who ventured into Tianjue Island died here, and to be able to reach this depth, his cultivation must be quite good.

"Two hundred feet to your left."

Xiaocan told him the location.

"I don't know what good stuff will be in there."

Lu Luan turned in another direction and walked over expectantly.

Although Xiao Can showed him the way, it still took him a long time to penetrate the illusion and get outside.

"Huh? How come?"

He discovered that after he came out, his soul could actually expand to a hundred feet, and the skeleton appeared within the sensing range.

It’s actually looser than outside!

Lu Luan didn't dare to be careless and asked softly: "Xiao Can, is there any danger around?"

After feeling it carefully for a while, Xiao Can said, "That's not the case, but there seems to be something strange around, brother, you should be careful."

"is it?"

Lu Luan frowned. He couldn't see anything, but he believed in Xiao Can. After thinking for a while, he set up rune defense and held the sword tightly in his hand. He told Xiao Can: "Pay attention to the surrounding situation and notify me if there is any movement."

"Ok."

They have not yet reached the center of Tianjue Island, and the danger they encounter is limited. He is still very confident in his own strength, especially with Xiao Can's eyes.

"Brother, be careful, there are changes around."

After walking only about thirty feet, Xiao Can suddenly reminded him.

But it was obviously too late. The next moment, Lu Luan felt that he had entered another area. A mysterious force descended on him, as if he was stuck in a quagmire and it was difficult to move.

"The power of confinement?"

Lu Luan did not panic, as he knew in his heart that this was another major danger on the island besides the illusion array and the ghosts, a restriction with the ability to imprison people.

He has now obviously triggered these restrictions.

Now, once it was triggered, he found that places where he had been before were suddenly covered by these restrictions.

It's like a trap.

After feeling it for a while, he shook his head and murmured, "It's really dangerous. If those who have just entered the foundation-building stage fall into this, I'm afraid they won't be able to escape."

Then he exerted all his strength, and the force that bound his body was broken like a rope.

His physical strength is now very strong, and these restrictions cannot restrain him at all.

After walking for another fifty feet in the "quagmire", passing through several large trees several feet wide, he found the skeleton floating motionlessly in the air under the green grass.

Perhaps it was because he had been dead for too long, his clothes had become gray and tattered, and the exposed bones had turned light black, with their essence lost.

These were not the focus of his observation. After a quick glance, he fixed his gaze on the withered finger.

"I wonder what treasures are in there?"

After making sure that the surroundings were clear, he walked over.

When he got closer, he opened his hand and sucked, and the solitary skeleton floated towards him.

With a flick of his finger, he took off the storage ring.

Next, he couldn't wait to sink his soul into it.

Over the years, the restrictions that had been blocking the way have long since disappeared.

After looking at it for a while, Lu Luan said with some disappointment: "Alas, what a pity."

He discovered that there were actually a few good spiritual herbs in the ring, but because no one had taken care of them for a long time, the restriction that prevented the medicinal power from dissipating was broken, and the medicinal effect had evaporated and turned into dead grass.

Of course, it was not without gain. Although many things had become ineffective, some spirit stones and mineral materials were still there. All in all, they were worth more than forty intermediate spirit stones.

“Although it’s a little less, it’s still pretty good. This person should have reached the initial stage of foundation building, but his physical strength is weak. I think he was trapped in this restriction and couldn’t get out. He must have died in here for some reason.”

After putting all the things into his storage ring, he smiled. After all, it was like picking up spirit stones for free, how could he not be happy?

After taking one look at the skeleton, he turned and left.

"Brother, the power around here is very strange. I want to come out and feel it. It will be very useful."

Xiao Can suddenly said, I figured it out.

Lu Luan smiled and let him out.

"ah."

However, as soon as it left the Huangting, it was frozen in the air, unable to move.

Its thin arms and legs are white and tender, and it has no physical strength, so it cannot escape the constraints of the surrounding forces.

He quickly called out, "Brother, help me, I can't move."

Lu Luan suspended it between his palms, and finally used his true energy to condense a barrier around it, and the power that imprisoned it began to weaken.

"Luckily, my brother is here, otherwise I would be doomed."

Xiao Can stretched his muscles with difficulty and looked at him with a smile.

Although it has reached the Foundation Establishment stage, the combat power of a Six Qi Refiner is really hard to describe. Without Lu Luan's protection, this restriction alone would make it helpless.

"What do you want to feel?"

Lu Luan asked.

Xiao Can said: "I want to feel the mystery of this natural restriction. Once I understand it, I will create it within the scope of my small world. This way, when my brother fights in the future, I will be able to help him. Oh, and there is also the illusion array from before."

Lu Luan rubbed its little head and asked, "Did you feel anything?"

After Xiao Can closed his eyes and sat for a while, he shook his head and said disappointedly: "No, it's too complicated and mysterious. I don't understand it at all. But it should be possible when my cultivation level is higher."

"Let's go back to Huangting first."

"No, I need to study more. Although I can't create it, I should be able to infer its strength through abnormal perception. This way, I can remind you which places you can go and which places you can't go."

Xiaocan sat on his shoulder and looked around.

"There will be plenty of time for research later. I have things to do now."

Lu Luan looked at it with some complexity.

"Okay then." Thinking that Lu Luan still had something to do, Xiao Can went back obediently.

However, Lu Luan looked ahead and thought to himself:

"Having Xiao Can here seems to be enough. Is it necessary to be with Zhao Kaishan and the others?"

He found that he had not obtained any useful information from Zhao Kaishan and others along the way.

"Well, let's go and have a look. They are going to a deeper place. Maybe we can learn more. It won't take much time anyway."

After thinking about it, he walked in the direction he came from.

Outside the illusion.

"Could it be that Fellow Daoist Lu is lost in there?"

Seeing that Lu Luan had not yet walked out of the illusion, Han Yuan frowned and said.

"Brother Lu is on the island for the first time and lacks experience. It is still a bit difficult for him to come up with this kind of illusion array."

"Brother Zhao, how about we go in and look for him now?" Wu Yingyu asked.

"Let's wait a little longer. It's also a way to see what he's capable of."

Zhao Kaishan said calmly, with no fluctuation in his eyes.

After waiting for a while, Zhao Kaishan looked up at the sun, and knowing that he could not delay any longer, he took out a talisman and prepared to go in.

But at this moment, Lu Luan came out.

"Friend Lu, you finally came out."

The four of them were immediately overjoyed.

Lu Luan said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I got stuck in there, but luckily I got out. I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long."

"I'm glad that Brother Lu is okay."

"Let's go."

Zhao Kaishan turned around and led the way.

Han Yuan walked beside him and said, "Next we have to go through a place full of restrictions to reach our destination. Today is when the restrictions are at their weakest. Otherwise, if it were normal times, we would not be able to get through at all."

After a while, he arrived at the place they mentioned.

Looking around, there were corpses of birds and animals floating in the air. Although there was wind, they were motionless, and the scene was weird.

As soon as I walked in, the restraining force appeared.

After Lu Luan felt it briefly, he found that the power of the restriction here was not as strong as what he had experienced before, but it should be about the same before it weakened.

"Friend Lu, be careful. Passing this place will test your physical strength. It is best not to use your magical powers, as this will only sink you deeper and deeper."

Wu Yingyu reminded.

Lu Luan nodded.
