Chapter 177 Jiang Xinbai, betrayal again?
Just when most people were feeling discouraged, someone from the past whispered:
"Look! Isn't that Jiang Xinbai, the chief disciple of Shangshan Sect?"
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw Jiang Xinbai, dressed in a light brown suit, walking calmly and calmly on a small path in the deserted village.
Behind him was a mobile prison van that could automatically follow him.
The people imprisoned in the prison van were none other than the four direct disciples who had disappeared since their secret exploration of the Demon Realm.
The four disciples were staggering at this time with their eyes closed.
A wandering cultivator in the Spiritual Transformation Stage quietly spread his consciousness over, his expression slightly changed. In order not to disturb Jiang Xinbai, he posted a comment in the Jade Slip Live Room:
"The four disciples in the cage are all dead!"
After a brief silence in the live broadcast room, it exploded:
"Dead? What do you mean?"
"literal meaning!"
"Fuck! How is that possible! They are geniuses! Who would kill them?"
"They are the pride of our righteous cultivators, not the pride of the evil and demonic sects!"
"Then why did Jiang Xinbai bring their bodies with him? And he looked so calm? What exactly was he planning to do?"
"I don't know if you remember, when the results of the sect competition were announced a year and a half ago, Chu You questioned Shangshan Sect's Li Sect Master about why he took her in at Xinghewan. The expression on Li Sect Master's face at that time was truly intriguing!"
"Now that you mention it, I kind of remember something! First, there was the news that an evil cultivator was summoning spirits in Xinghewan, and then there was the news that a direct disciple of the Shangshan Sect showed up with the corpses of four direct disciples from the other two major sects, claiming that the Shangshan Sect had no connection with the evil cultivators. Tomorrow I'm going to perform a handstand drinking show!"
"The Jade Slip Circle isn't devoid of memories. Think about Mu Ling'er, who was once hailed as a genius. She's been involved with evil cultivators and demons, so which one hasn't she had?"
"So, could it be that Jiang Xinbai is also colluding with the evil heretics?"
"I feel like the entire Shangshan Sect is filled with weirdness!"
"Then let's capture Jiang Xinbai and interrogate him first?"
……
Seeing the Taoist friends in the Jade Slip Live Room eager to try, Sun Lei and Li Liang were worried that Chu You would also suspect Jiang Xinbai, and they hurriedly explained beside her Yuanshen:
"Second Senior Sister, Senior Brother must have been controlled, or he was forced to do it!"
"That's right! Second Senior Sister! No matter who the eldest senior brother betrays, he will never betray you! And he will definitely not hurt you!"
She could understand and agree with the first sentence, but what did the second sentence mean, "I will never hurt or betray her"?
Worried that they would lose their souls due to anxiety, Chu You's soul quickly comforted them:
"No problem, let's observe first."
After saying this, Chu You's real body used a jade slip to pin a message to the top of the live broadcast room:
"Please be patient, everyone. Xinghewan is full of strange things. The spirit of a deceased disciple of Shangshan Sect told me that this might be the base where the evil cultivators make puppets. We have been searching for so long but have not found any clues. It would be better to follow Jiang Xinbai in secret. We might find something."
The casual cultivators present had another discussion in the live broadcast room, and finally decided to follow Chu You's suggestion and quietly follow Jiang Xinbai at a distance that was neither too far nor too close.
Xinghewan is a coastal village. Jiang Xinbai stopped when he reached the beach, stood there for a long time, and suddenly took out the jade slip.
Not long after, Chu You received the Morse code he sent through the jade slip:
"I'll go in first to test the situation. If there's any danger, don't follow me!"
Now the arrow is on the string, and so many independent cultivators are watching. It’s not like she can just not follow it!
The reason why Jiang Xinbai changed his decision temporarily was because the journey was unusually smooth.
At the three checkpoints he needed to go to, he just checked to see if Jun Mohan and others were "dead". Jiang Xinbai just casually explained the reason why Sun Lei and Li Liang were not in the team, and they all believed it. They also combined the three sections and told Jiang Xinbai the magic and magic weapon that could open the secret room mechanism by the sea in Xinghewan.
No matter what, it feels like I'm inviting you into a trap!
Having come this far, Jiang Xinbai couldn't retreat anymore.
But he didn't want Chu You to put himself in danger.
After the jade slip message was sent out, Jiang Xinbai took a deep breath, and a trace of solemnity flashed across his usually indifferent and calm face.
He quickly formed seals with his hands in front of him, and dozens of dark golden nails flew out from his arms, forming a complex totem in mid-air and flying into the sea in front of him.
As Jiang Xinbai chanted, the originally calm sea water suddenly became turbulent.
A huge vortex gradually formed in the area where the nail flew into.
Under the astonished gazes of the crowd, the water in the whirlpool suddenly seemed to be drained away, revealing a staircase leading to the depths of the sea, with sea pearls illuminating both sides!
Everyone suddenly realized that it was no wonder that they had searched Galaxy Bay almost thoroughly but still couldn't find any suspected barriers.
It turns out that it’s not a barrier at all, but a mechanism!
Or it’s a mechanism hidden on the beach of Galaxy Bay!
At the same time, everyone felt a sense of fear in their hearts.
Building an underground mechanical city on flat ground is definitely not something that an ordinary weapon cultivator can design and refine.
This mechanical city is located in the sea. What great talent and ability does it require!
Chu You and other disciples of Wuji Mountain all had terribly gloomy expressions.
This old bastard Li stole Zhu Yan's talent in weapon cultivation. If it weren't for him, how talented would Zhu Yan be now!
But when I think about the fact that the sinister old man Li had cast a "same life curse" on Jiang Xinbai, if I kill him, Jiang Xinbai will also die.
But if he is not killed, the seal on Zhu Yan's spiritual roots cannot be lifted.
For a moment, Chu You was in a dilemma.
Ji Chen reminded her:
“Junior Sister, Jiang Xinbai has taken Jun Mohan and the others inside.
Shall we follow?"
After pondering for a while, Chu You said:
"with!"
If they don't follow, how can they reveal the secrets of the evil cultivators here? How can the Cultivation World Federation be able to take precise action?
only……
Chu You took out a new loudspeaker:
“Fellow Daoists, we from Wuji Mountain have decided to follow the mechanical city in the sea and find out what’s going on.
But the road ahead is unknown and filled with dangers. Fellow Daoists, you can enter with us, or wait here for the cultivators from the Cultivation World Federation to arrive for reinforcements. It is up to you to decide!"
The scattered cultivators discussed it briefly, and most of them decided to go with Chu You and the others.
Chu You didn't know that Jun Mohan and the others had already contacted the Cultivation World Federation, so he once again appealed to the live broadcast camera of the jade slip:
"Disciple Chu You of Wuji Mountain, I earnestly request the Cultivation World Federation to take charge of the situation and head to the Xinghewan coast as soon as possible to help us eliminate the evil cultivators!
I'll go in and explore the way first!"
After saying that, Ji Chen and Ning Luo took the lead and walked in the front, Chu You walked in the middle, and Shen Tu Yin and Situ Yuner followed behind.
Further back are the independent cultivators.
At first, everyone was very cautious when going down the spiral staircase, wary of various traps they might encounter.
But after walking for nearly an incense stick of time, they didn't encounter any traps, and the wandering cultivators gradually relaxed.
The next moment, the stairs under their feet suddenly disappeared, and they all fell down, standing or falling in a hurry.
Amidst the chaos, a sinister voice was heard saying:
"Jiang Xinbai, you did a great job. Not only did you send me the corpses of my four direct disciples to make puppets, you also gave me more than a thousand ready-made living puppet cultivators. Hahahahaha!"
