The core area of the Landscape Phantom Land.
Bai Luming curled up on the ground and trembled, his clothes were soaked, his muddy bun had already spread out, sticking to his face randomly, looking like a beggar.
Obviously, Bai Luming had just endured unbearable severe pain, so much so that the dignified third-order martial artist didn't even have any dignity at all.
At this time, he was panting heavily on the ground, but his messy hair covered his face, making it difficult to see his expression at this time.
"In just a moment, Shang Xia has disappeared! Bai Luming, I underestimated you!"
Chu Jia pursed his mouth tightly, it was he who activated the "Three Intentions Lock" on Bai Luming's body just now.
And beside her, Sun Haiwei, who came over after hearing the news, also looked worried, and at the same time, her eyes looking at Bai Luming had faintly revealed murderous intent.
"I...... I said, with ...... It has nothing to do with me, he walked around and left the core area!" Bai Luming said while panting on the ground.
Sun Haiwei said in a deep voice: "So, do you know that he left the core area?"
"That's right!"
Bai Luming did not deny it, and he knew that it was useless for him to deny it.
The phantom spirit bead can trace back the image of his behavior in the past, as long as Chu Jia takes back the phantom spirit bead after Shang Ke absorbs the phantom spirit demon, he will immediately be able to discover what he has done.
Moreover, even without the phantom spirit beads, Chu Jia could still see the location of Bai Luming at that time through the central formation map.
In fact, it is precisely because of this that at the moment of Shang Xia's disappearance, Chu Jia found Bai Luming as soon as possible, and without saying a word, he activated the "Sanyi Lock" to torture Bai Luming to death.
"Why don't you stop him?" Sun Haiwei's words were chilling.
Bai Luming lifted the messy hair in front of him and asked with a strange face: "Why should I stop him? In fact, when he came out of the stone chamber where Shang Ke was in retreat, Miss Chu had already warned him."
Sun Haiwei still reluctantly said: "So you also intend to see him leave the core area? Although you didn't directly kill him, you were still sitting back and watching him go into danger!"
"Dangerous...... Environment?"
Bai Luming barely showed a mocking smile, but did not continue to respond to Sun Haiwei, but instead set his sights on Chu Jia: "Who would have thought that the entire Coral Realm Mysterious Realm would be fully mobilized, and it just so happened that at that time, even the spaces with the four spiritual lands began to interact with each other? Miss Chu, can you think of it?"
Chu Jia was silent.
Bai Luming turned around and continued to look at Sun Haiwei and said: "In fact, even Miss Chu was able to make the judgment that space transfer might occur in the four spiritual lands, which was based on my prior understanding of the Coral Forest Mysterious Realm. Miss Chu's formation path attainments and talents are far above Bai's. How could Bai know something that even Miss Chu could not think of?"
Sun Haiwei was speechless and didn't know how to refute.
Chu Jia suddenly raised his chin at this time and said with a hint of savagery: "Even if this matter really has nothing to do with you, it is not unjust to say that you have ulterior motives."
This time, Bai Luming was silent, in fact, he never denied it from the beginning.
"Then do you know why I insisted on saving your life before?"
Chu Jia's face suddenly showed a smile that looked very clean.
Bai Luming saw the smile on her face but his heart trembled for no reason, this smile made a deep impression on him.
Even Sun Haiwei next to her was slightly startled, suddenly recalling the experience of sitting in the underground passage watching Bai Luming break the formation, and couldn't help but move her steps slightly to the side.
"It's difficult...... Isn't it because Miss Chu needs someone to help her?" Bai Luming whispered.
Chu Jia covered his mouth and laughed, only to hear Leisurely say: "If you are obedient, then you will naturally be my assistant. After returning to Tongyou Peak in the future and enlightening it to several senior teachers in the academy, with your formation attainments, with the school spirit of Tongyou Academy's 'eclectic, tolerant is great', it is recommended that you be a teacher. If you break away from the Yuejihui and the Ouyang family, you will also have your own academy to provide you with protection."
"Lot...... Thank you!" Bai Luming's expression changed slightly.
Chu Jia was noncommittal and continued: "But if you have ill intentions......"
Speaking of this, Chu Jia's voice suddenly paused, but his face was like a smile, but his gaze towards Bai Luming was like looking at a good-looking toy: "With your knowledge of formation, you must have heard of 'Array Spirit', right?"
Bai Luming's expression changed drastically: "This is a forbidden technique, it is spurned by all the warriors of the Formation Dao lineage, how dare you do this? If the news spreads, it will definitely cause an uproar in the entire Cangyu world, and Kou Chongxue may not be able to protect you!"
"Forbidden technique?"
Chu Jia let out another chuckle like a silver bell, as if he had heard some big joke: "Do you know what I'm going to do? How could he be so scared when he heard the word 'array spirit'? Don't you think I'm going to make you into a 'Formation Spirit'?"
Bai Luming's face became more and more pale.
Chu Jia looked at it and felt more and more funny: "What are you thinking? Although I do know this kind of forbidden technique, and I really want to study it, I can't easily touch this kind of hurtful thing!"
Without waiting for Bai Luming to breathe a sigh of relief, Chu Jia's clean smile suddenly changed his tone again, and he said with a hint of longing: "But then again, isn't the so-called 'forbidden technique' just fine as long as you don't let others know? Under the guardian formations of those great forces in the states of the Cangyu Realm, how many are there who do not have a few formation masters who do not have blood sacrifices? Even if they are discovered, don't they all claim that those killed are all hostile mages with 'ulterior motives'?"
The word "ill-intentioned" was just said by Chu Jia, but Bai Luming did not refute it at the time, but acquiesced to silence.
Bai Luming sighed and said helplessly: "Two, as long as you don't really let Bai go to the formation to be a puppet-like 'formation spirit', but there is an explanation, Bai will obey everything. Besides, the disappearance of Young Master Shang was really an accident, and he might not be dead......"
Chu Jia smiled and said: "So you are still alive now, if he dies, you will definitely have to die too! Senior Shang is about to advance to the fourth heaven, once he leaves the customs and finds that Shang Xia has been killed...... you understand, I always have to give an explanation to his old man and the Shang family behind him. Instead of letting you die easily, it is better to become a 'formation spirit' who cannot live or die, maybe the merchant will feel relieved!"
Bai Luming, who had just recovered a little bit of vitality under the torture of the "Three Intention Lock", collapsed on the ground again at this time.
"So, I don't need to say more about what to do next, right? Junior Sister Sun......"
After Chu Jia finished speaking, she turned around and was about to beckon Sun Haiwei to leave, but found that her face was not good, and she couldn't help but laugh: "Junior sister Sun? What are you thinking? Let's go!"
"Huh?"
Sun Haiwei was startled at first, then barely showed an embarrassed smile, and said repeatedly: "Oh, okay, okay ......"
…………
"Hey, what kind of swordsmanship is this, so weird power!"
With a curious voice, it came from behind Shang Xia.
Shang Xia turned around suddenly, protecting him with the Jade River Sword in front of him, and at the same time his figure flew backwards, widening the distance from the person behind him.
"Third Order!"
Shang Xia looked at the person who had just shot at him more than twenty feet away, and felt a little bitter in his mouth.
Opposite Shang Xia was a young warrior in his twenties, only to see that this person was well-dressed and looked like a handsome young man, but it was somewhat similar to Shang Xia's original demeanor.
It's just that Shang Xia went in and out of the waterhole several times before, especially after there were no water beads, although he could dry the soaked clothes with the vitality in his body every time, but after a few times, the originally decent clothes also became stiff and stiff, looking a little more embarrassed, how could he be compared with the person in front of him.
Moreover, the person in front of him had reached the martial arts artistic realm with extraordinary self-cultivation, and there were two second-order martial artists following behind this person, one on the left and one on the right.
Seeing Shang Xia's quick reaction, he distanced himself from everyone the moment he was attacked, and the two people behind the young warrior wanted to outflank him from the left and right to intercept Shang Xia's retreat.
Unexpectedly, the young warrior raised his hand to stop the two of them: "A second-order warrior, he can't escape. It just so happens that my new set of Zhu's swordsmanship has just been practiced, and I am in need of a handy sparring partner, but this person's swordsmanship is weird, and it happened to be sent to the door."
After Shang Xia saw the strength of the other party, his first reaction was to turn around and run away.
Although the terrain here is flat, it looks like a wasteland.
But there were still coral-like rockeries on this wasteland, and with these rockeries as cover, Shang Xia felt that he might still have hope of escape.
It's just that the young warrior obviously saw Shang Xia's plan, and the moment he stopped the two people behind him, a sword light like autumn water suddenly appeared, directly crossed the distance of twenty feet, and went straight to Shang Xia's door.
"Why are you in a hurry to leave? Your swordsmanship is peculiar, why don't you compete with me?"
The two of them exchanged shoulders dozens of times in an instant, and Shang Xia retreated one after another, while the young warrior still had time to speak.
However, Shang Xia also noticed that the person in front of him seemed to have deliberately suppressed his cultivation to the level of a second-order martial artist, maintaining a cultivation level roughly equivalent to his, and just greeted him with the long sword in his hand.
"You are a student of Tongyou Academy, right? Such a cultivation is undoubtedly a scholar, and it is not a nameless person. Dongfang Mingyu from the Lower Oriental Family, I don't know what you call it?"
Shang Xia was silent, just using the strongest set of swordsmanship in his hand, the "Rigid and Soft Sword Technique", to resist the opponent's attack.
At this time, Shang Xia already had an understanding of each other's swordsmanship during the short battle between the two sides.
This person's swordsmanship suddenly surpassed the mountains, although it was not as strong and invincible as Fang Gang's sword technique, but it was more heavy and calm, overwhelming with its power.
Sometimes this person's swordsmanship became as light as a feather, although it was not as flexible and changeable as the invisible sword technique, but it always gave people a sense of danger, even more so than his previous heavy sword style.
