Chapter 1268 Unknown Danger

Shen Xiuyuan really wanted to separate from Ao Hen.

But now Ao Hen suddenly disappeared, and it was hard for him not to be surprised.

"What's going on?" He turned around and asked Yu Sinian in a panic, "Have we fallen into some unknown formation again and moved to a different place?"

He still remembered the trap that Yu Sinian had set up before.

Break one layer, and there is another. It doesn't seem difficult to create the same scenery.

Yu Sinian immediately went to look for the mark he had left on the tree: "The mark is still there, it should not be trapped in the formation..."

"What if the formation also includes your marked tree?" Du Xingyu always likes to contradict Yu Sinian, but this is also what Mu Jingjing wanted to ask.

"..." Yu Sinian thought for a moment, "If those people from Lingzhen Pavilion came here and adjusted the formation, then this is possible."

"Why didn't I think of this?!" Du Xingyu clapped his hands with his fist.

They treated so many souls last time, what connection do they have with the ancient times? If it is said that the formation was deliberately set up by Lingzhen Pavilion, it is to cover the door of the treasure house...

Wait! The treasure house seems to be related to ancient times...

"Not quite right." Shen Xiuyuan shook his head. "If those souls really wanted to stop people from coming, it doesn't make sense that now that their keys are gone, they would take away the formation and let people pass through unhindered..."

"It may not be smooth sailing," Mu Jingjing shook her head, "Maybe we are trapped now and are no longer in the original world."

"But this place looks no different from before, except for one person missing." Ling Yichen frowned, "How can we be sure whether it is us or that guy who is missing?"

"Wait a moment." Lin Fan released her drone army again. "One of the functions of the formation is to block. If the Clairvoyance can't fly out, it's likely that we are trapped. If there is no obstacle, it proves that everything is normal."

"But what if it's a very powerful formation with a very large boundary?" Mu Jingjing asked, "Shouldn't the formation master be able to sense the formation?"

Yu Sinian shook his head: "It depends on the specific situation. It is limited by the level of the formation itself and the skills of the person who set up the formation. Sometimes it is indeed possible to identify the formation quickly, but sometimes it is not easy."

"Logically speaking, if we were able to identify the formation last time, then even if it has changed this time, the level wouldn't improve much, right?" Ling Yichen asked.

"Not necessarily." Shen Xiuyuan frowned. "This time, Lingzhen Pavilion didn't want to catch the one who got the key... The leader of their treasure protection team is a Jindan. Based on this, it is highly likely that the key is in the hands of a Jindan or higher level of cultivation. So it makes sense to upgrade the formation level."

"If," Mu Jingjing asked, with her hands on her hips, "I mean if, ha, if it wasn't us who got lost, but Senior Brother Ao, does that mean he's been captured?"

Everyone was silent for a while.

If even Ao Hen, who was at the high level of Jindan, could be taken down silently, it would be quite scary indeed.

But if that's the case, it doesn't make sense that nothing would happen to them when they're together.

They are indeed innocent, but can Lingzhen Pavilion distinguish right from wrong so well and not doubt them at all?

"They have already flown out of the swamp." Lin Fan kept staring at the controller. "The fastest one has already broken through the edge of the swamp. Theoretically, this formation will not break through the geographical restrictions, so it should not be us who are lost."

"So fast?!" Ling Yichen stretched his neck to see.

"That's right." Du Xingyu puffed out his chest with pride, "Our Lin Fan's Clairvoyance is small and agile, and it flies so fast... So that means Aohen is missing?"

When I knew the person was missing, I didn’t even call him senior brother at the first moment.

"It's highly likely." Lin Fan was still staring at the other drones. "Just in case, let Clairvoyance go to the town we came from. No matter how powerful the formation is, it can't include the nearby towns and conjure up the living people inside."

Lin Fan had a good impression of several people in the town. She didn't believe that any formation could make the people she just met look exactly the same.

"Generally, formations rarely extend beyond the regional area. Not only does it consume a huge amount of energy, but a formation that is too large beyond the scope of the swamp forest will attract attention and backfire." Yu Sinian also said, "So judging from the situation, Aohen did encounter some unexpected situation."

The fact that Aohen has disappeared is itself a cause for celebration.

But the problem is, no one knows what happened to him, a person with high Jindan level, who disappeared without a sound. For others whose cultivation is lower than his, the uncertain danger still exists.

They don't necessarily need to find Ao Hen, but they hope to know what happened to him.

Moreover, if Ao Hen had an accident near the lake... does that mean that the formation that triggers the soul may not have been changed? But why couldn't they trigger it? So is there something wrong?

"Senior Brother Ao?" Shen Xiuyuan took a few steps forward and shouted.

But he only dared to walk to the parting position, and did not dare to move forward any further.

Squatting down and looking, I saw that the ground was covered with a lot of fallen leaves. It was not like a sandy ground, so it was easy to see traces.

Shen Xiuyuan looked around but couldn't figure out what was going on. He turned around and asked the others, "Is there any way to find out where he disappeared from?"

"Who knows?" Du Xingyu spread his hands. "His talent is only possessed by demon cultivators. Who would practice that for a normal person?"

Lin Fan's nose was sensitive, but it was far from being as sensitive as Ao Hen's, which was comparable to a dog's.

Now her nostrils were filled with all kinds of grass, decay, and earthy smells, but no human smell.

To be honest, unless a normal person smells particularly bad or smells particularly good, it is really hard to notice the smell when you are very close to them.

Despite this, Lin Fan still lay on the ground and smelled it carefully.

"How is it?" Shen Xiuyuan asked.

Lin Fan shook his head: "It smells like damp heat and rot. I can't smell the smell of Aohen at all. So, what does Aohen smell like?"

Shen Xiuzhong was stunned and looked at the others blankly.

"Hahaha," Du Xingyu slapped his thigh, "Alright, alright, we just say we don't have that kind of dog nose, so let's not take on that porcelain job. Or you can smell me, who knows when it might be useful?"

As he spoke, he lifted the sleeve of his upper arm and put it under Lin Fan's nose.

Lin Fan was just crawling up from the ground when he wasn't paying attention and someone approached his face.

Although Shen Xiuyuan quickly reached out and pushed him away, the smell still rushed into her nostrils.

The smell of sweat, herbs, and fire... It wasn't that bad, but it wasn't pleasant either. Lin Fan took two steps back.

Next to him, Yu Sinian held a scented pill in his hand and fanned Lin Fan with a fan.

Du Xingyu saw it and immediately clenched his fist towards him: "Yu..."

"Alright, alright!" Shen Xiuyuan carried the person and pushed him away, "Don't move here, or else the person will disappear again and we won't be able to find him."

Anything that can destroy them is more dangerous to them.

Du Xingyu immediately stopped struggling, rolled up his sleeves and raised his fist at Yu Sinian.

"Let's go back to the forest first." Lin Fan said, "Our main goal is to return to the soul formation. If we try the original route a few more times and the speed is still not enough, we can wait a little longer."

Yu Sinian nodded: "We didn't stay here for long before, and now there is no need to stay in this known dangerous situation."

Everyone had no opinion.

Jin Tong seemed to feel a little sorry for Ao Hen's disappearance, and looked back several times on the way back to the forest. Shen Xiuyuan saw it and said that the little girl was young and kind after all. He comforted her many times.

It gradually got darker and soon it was pitch dark in the forest.

For safety reasons, everyone set up camp on the spot and tried again at daybreak.
