“What’s wrong?”
Li Xiaobai was puzzled, since when did the Pudong Rooster have this function?
“As a powerful being, my instincts remind me that there is danger ahead.”
Ji Wuqing spoke gravely, the atmosphere inside the car immediately tensed, and Ouyang Shuanger’s heart was once again suspended in unease.
“Speak human language…” Li Xiaobai was full of confusion.
“Cackle, after dying once, my sense of crisis is exceptionally sharp, there is definitely danger ahead,” Ji Wuqing said.
Li Xiaobai nodded, what Ji Wuqing said should be true, it’s better to be cautious.
He parked the sports car at the edge of the jungle, ready to observe first. Just from the environment alone, this isolated straw hut seemed to indeed have some issues.
Minutes later, several streaks of light flew across the sky and landed next to the straw hut.
These were cultivators drawn by the golden column of light.
“This must be the Small World!”
“That’s right, Beichen Feng is a Confucian Path sage, his Small World must contain many treasures, let’s hurry in before all the valuables fall into the hands of others.”
A few cultivators entered the straw hut and disappeared from sight.
Li Xiaobai witnessed the entire process, inside the straw hut there was another world altogether, concealing a Small World left by a great being, truly extraordinary.
But looking at this situation, it seems there are no issues, right?
“Xiao Ji, is it that you sensed the dangers within the Small World? It’s a place of treasures, it’s normal to have dangers,” Li Xiaobai said.
“Cackle, lad, you must trust me, the danger is right ahead, I dare say, as soon as you enter the Small World, something bad is bound to happen,” Ji Wuqing said coolly, with a hint of perplexity flashing in its small eyes. It didn’t see any danger, but its instinct told it that entering the straw hut would be a dead-end road.
The two of them and the rooster continued waiting inside the car.
Before long, another large group of cultivators arrived.
After eyeing each other hostilely, they rushed into the straw hut.
More streaks of light continued to descend from the sky, all of them cultivators attracted by the phenomenon.
Li Xiaobai saw many familiar faces, among them the Golden Spear Overlord he had encountered in the Holy Demon Sect, and several other foreign-chosen ones, not wanting to fall behind, entered the Small World one after another.
After waiting another two hours, the descending lights gradually became less frequent.
Eventually, after a few more figures entered, there were no more people appearing in the vicinity.
“Xiao Ji, do you still sense the danger?” Li Xiaobai turned his head and asked.
“Yes, and it’s getting stronger, something terrifying is approaching!” Ji Wuqing said.
Li Xiaobai held his breath and focused.
Meanwhile, in front of them, next to the straw hut, several figures emerged.
Looking at the hut, a cold smile appeared on their lips.
“Sect Leader, there’s a total of six foreign chosen ones, and some cultivators of the Divinity Transformation Stage, should be enough for you to accumulate fortune and ascend to the Mahayana Realm,” a withered old man said.
“Good, our Sect has not produced a Great Crossing Realm expert for decades, it is finally time,” another spoke.
“By absorbing the fortune of these geniuses, your path will only become smoother and more prosperous,” they affirmed.
The leading middle-aged man showed a faint smile, “Months of planning and preparation come to a head tonight. This matter concerns the fortune of the Holy Demon Sect, we can only succeed, not fail.”
“Understood!”
The old men quickly dispersed, using spirit stones as focus, they started carving a Formation around the straw hut out of thin air.
The sky-piercing golden column slowly dissipated, to be replaced by a blood-red totem that firmly enveloped the straw hut within.
“`
The intricate patterns reached their zenith in complexity as they continued to be etched into the void, spreading an overwhelming power that set hearts trembling.
Inside the sports car, both passengers and the rooster were trembling uncontrollably.
“Cluck cluck, kid, that guy up ahead, he looks somewhat familiar, isn’t he the Sect Master of the Holy Demon Sect?”
Ji Wuqing looked ahead with terror in his eyes and spoke about the people who were moving around in front of them.
“That’s him. This treasure land, damn it, was crafted by this guy. He deliberately created this treasure land to lure numerous cultivators into it, probably planning to wipe them all out at once!”
Under the pressure of the Formation, Li Xiaobai felt his body begin to tremble.
Seeing what was happening, he completely understood in his heart.
Their Sect Leader had concocted a fake little world to attract a large number of cultivators, then he would block the exit and wipe out all the cultivators inside, claiming all the resources for himself.
This tactic felt all too familiar. He himself had played this game before!
Only, he never went to the extremes like Ou Yezi did, taking the concept of a trap to a whole new level.
The several elders up ahead continued to inscribe the Formation, apparently not noticing Li Xiaobai and the others.
Li Xiaobai felt the urge to retreat and made a gesture to his companions to prepare to get out of the car quietly and sneak away. The engine of the sports car was too loud and might alert Ou Yezi.
Even though he was a disciple of the Holy Demon Sect, who knew if the Sect Leader would attempt to kill him without hesitation?
The day he killed the straw-cloaked man, his opponent did not even blink an eye. It was always better to be safe than sorry when away from home.
But it was at that moment.
Ou Yezi, with his hands clasped behind his back, slowly turned around, his eyes firmly fixed on the sports car’s location, burning with an intensity as if to see through one’s Primordial Spirit.
A chilling presence swept over them. In just an instant, Li Xiaobai felt his hair stand on end and a foreboding aura brushed past, causing his Attribute Points to suddenly leap.
[Attribute Points +2000…]
Hiss!
Merely being swept by his presence had forcefully increased his Attribute Points by two thousand. This Ou Yezi was far too terrifying!
Ji Wuqing and Ouyang Shuanger by his side also had their complexions change drastically. Could it be that they had just escaped the tiger’s den only to enter the wolf’s lair?
“Is it Xiaobai?”
A faint voice came through, Ou Yezi was the one who initiated the conversation.
Li Xiaobai knew they had been discovered, rolled down the window, and nodded.
“Indeed, Sect Leader, I didn’t expect to see you here, what a coincidence.”
“Heh, this is no coincidence. I have been preparing for this day for a long time. The real miniature world is in the southeast direction, just go straight, and you’ll see it. But the good stuff inside has already been taken by me. You don’t need to waste your time searching. Just head back to the sect.”
Ou Yezi spoke indifferently.
“You’re willing to let me go?”
Li Xiaobai was somewhat astonished. He had already bought the Thousand Mile Transmission Talismans from the mall.
“Do you think I’ll kill you to keep you quiet?”
Ou Yezi looked at Li Xiaobai with some amusement, as Li Xiaobai’s expression turned a bit awkward, seemingly overthinking it.
“As a disciple of the Holy Demon Sect, as long as you do not betray the sect, I will only protect you, not harm you.”
“This place is soon to become a battlefield, no place for you to meddle. Best leave quickly. As for today’s events, let them not be spread outside.”
“Understood!”
Li Xiaobai quickly got back into the car, turned it around, and floored the accelerator. The Lamborghini tore away, vanishing into the depths of the forest in an instant.
Ou Yezi shook his head: “Am I really that terrifying?”
