Night Walker under t works

Chapter 780: Escape Method

    

""It's just how the illusions of my Ginger Clan work. It only allows me to appear as your grandfather.""Well, I wouldn't say I'm pretending either. After all, at my age, calling me your grandfather wo...Feeling the violent shaking of the earth, and looking ahead at the crack that was charging towards him like a giant dragon, Jiang Yun instantly made his decision.

"Brother Hou, while the formation hasn't been broken yet, I'll go out and lure him away. Then you can find a chance to leave quickly. He has his sights on me, so even if he finds you, he shouldn't make things difficult for you."

Just as Jiang Yun spoke these words, beneath the earth of Taoyuan City, beside the mountain wall covered in black vines, Jin Cunyao, the patriarch of the Golden Toad Clan, paced back and forth with a look of anxiety on his face.

However, every time he went around, his gaze would secretly glance at Ye Tianstone soaking in the wooden tub, his eyes tightly closed.

He is truly anxious right now.

Because calculating the time, Jiang Yun had already been inside for five or six days, but after he brought his ancestor here, the ancestor just let him wait.

...to the point where he didn't even know what his ancestor was waiting for.

Others may not know, but Jin Cengyao is the chieftain of the Golden Toad clan, and Ye Tian shi, as the disciple of the Pharmacist God, naturally knows that the world behind this mountain wall is not an exit from the Dao Prison at all, but a place where a tremendously powerful demon race is suppressed!

For countless years, who knows how many cultivators entered its depths with hope, but never emerged again.

Regardless of Jiang Yun's strength, the ancestor said that Jiang Yun's entry this time must be related to the Dao Shen Temple. They came here for the purpose of saving Jiang Yun, but they always stayed outside and didn't go in. So how can they save him

In a state of anxious anticipation, Jin Cunyao couldn't help himself any longer. He cautiously opened his mouth and said, "Ancestor, what if I go in first to take a look"

After a brief silence, Ye Tian shi's voice finally echoed in his mind: "Stay calm. Neither the blood demon nor the envoy of the Dao Shen Dian has made their true move yet!"

"My time and strength are limited, I can only make a move once at most, so I have to wait until they make their move before I can act!"

Jin Cunyao hurriedly continued, "But, Ancestor, besides these two, there are others inside!"

Ye Tian shi slowly opened his eyes and faintly said, "If even Jiang Yun can't handle the others, then I won't even make this one move!"

Although Ye Tian Shi's words were harsh, they immediately shut Jin Cun Yao up.

Because he knew the ancestor was telling the truth.

Ye Tian Shi saved Jiang Yun not because they were close friends, but simply because Jiang Yun was also a descendant of the Medicine God.

Only if Jiang Yun is kept alive can he have the possibility of saving Yaoshhen.

If even those cultivators who are obviously not in Ye Tian Shi's eyes can't be dealt with, then there's no need to expect him to save Yaoshenshen.

Meanwhile, the beggar who had already awakened also left the Golden Toad clan and once again embarked on a journey with no purpose or direction, searching for his younger apprentice.

……

Seeing Jiang Yun turn and walk out of the formation, Hou Muran suddenly reached out and grabbed him. "Brother Jiang," he said, "it's not time to fight desperately yet. Walking out of the formation now is a bit too early, isn't it"

"Besides, even if you manage to lure him away, do you really think he'll let me go"

Although my strength may not be great, don't forget that I am quite proficient in formations.

Hou Muran's words made Jiang Yun's eyes light up immediately. "Could it be that Brother Hou has a better way out"

Hou Muran nodded and said, "I don't have absolute certainty, but it's slightly stronger than you directly fighting him to the death!"

"Alright, if there's anything you need, just let me know!"

Unless driven to a corner, Jiang Yun certainly wouldn't want to face Yue Qing head-on. So now that he heard Hou Muran had other options, of course he was willing to give it a try.

Hou Muran said in a low voice, "This method indeed requires you, and this method also carries enormous risks. Even if it fails, you may still fall into his hands."

Ginger Yun smiled faintly and said, "What if it's successful"

Jiang Yun's question elicited an admiring expression from Hou Muren. In this situation, anyone else would have first asked about the risks involved.

But Ginger Cloud asked what would happen after success.

This shows that Jiangyun not only doesn't care about any risks at all, but more importantly, he obviously trusts himself very much.

"If we succeed, at least we'll have three days to escape!" Hou Muran also smiled.

Three days' time, although not long, yet it also adds countless possibilities. So Jiang Yun readily nodded and said: "Brother Hou, please tell me, what is the plan"

"It's very simple, I give you a stone tablet, inside which I have already set up an illusionary array!"

"I'm not bragging, but this formation can be said to be the strongest one I've ever set up in my life. Therefore, I am confident that even if Yue Qing still possesses the cultivation of Dao Realm, it will be enough to trap him for three days."

After hearing this, Ginger Cloud immediately understood Hou Muran's plan.

Illusory formations, or illusion arrays as they are sometimes called, are certainly not unfamiliar to Jiang Yun. As the name suggests, they utilize the power of formations to create an illusory realm and trap enemies within it.

However, to trap the enemy, the most basic point is to have them enter the illusion array. So, they are all set up beforehand and then lure the enemy into it.

As Hou Muran said, if the illusionary formation was hidden within the formation stones, even if they were crushed, as long as there was a slight distance between the enemy and oneself, the other party would not fall into the illusionary formation.

In short, this method requires maintaining an extremely close distance between oneself and Yue Qing.

However, Hou Muran continued, "My illusion array is a little different from what you imagined."

Whatever the formation, or how high your mastery of formations is, there will always be a varying amount of time it takes to activate them.

"This is unavoidable by anyone."

Although this time is almost negligible, with Yue Qing's strength, he still has enough ability to widen the distance and escape the coverage of the illusion array.

Besides, since Yueqing has fought with you before, he will naturally be wary of you. It is highly unlikely that he would want to get close to you.

Therefore, the illusionary array I've set up only requires you to maintain a distance of one zhang from him. However, you will still need to endure one of his attacks.

"Once his power hits you, you must crush the formation stone immediately, neither too early nor too late."

Only then will you and he, or rather the illusionary array and he, be connected by his power as a single thread, drawing him completely into the illusionary array!

Jiang Yun finally understood, no wonder Hou Muran said his method was only slightly better than fighting with his own life!

It was already dangerous enough to simply maintain a one-zhang distance from Yue Qing, but I never expected to endure his strike, and even have my formation stone crushed under it.

Although Jiang Yun believed Yue Qing shouldn't make his death so painless, what if the time he crushed the formation stone was earlier or later Then not only would his strike be in vain, but he wouldn't even have a chance to resist.

If I were to charge directly at Yue Qing and fight him to the death, the result would be certain death. But following Hou Muran's plan, the outcome would be a nine out of ten chance of death!

A ray of hope!

Looking at Jiang Yun's silent and unspeaking visage, Hou Muran didn't continue. He knew very well what risks his method posed for Jiang Yun.

However, he also knew that Jiangyun had to make a decision as soon as possible, because the current formation, under Yueqing's nearly insane attacks, could not hold out for long.

Just after a few breaths, Jiang Yun extended his palm and said, "Brother Hou, give me the formation stone!"
