Although no one noticed Du Dong's subtle movement, Chen Yun immediately focused his spiritual sense on this person as soon as he arrived here.
Naturally, Du Dong could not detect the spiritual awareness of a person at the Nascent Soul stage.
At this time, Du Dong lowered his head and sat quietly on the ground, but from the slight trembling of his lips, it was obvious that he was whispering something.
At this moment, the voice stone in Chen Yun's mind suddenly emitted the voice of Yin Yue.
"Master, the roots of this Spirit Eye Tree are also tightly protected by a light shield. Although I have the ability to forcibly break through the light shield, I cannot guarantee that I will not disturb the Jindan stage cultivators inside the shield."
Yin Yue asked respectfully.
"Don't be impatient. This place will soon fall into chaos. We can wait until then to take action. Yinyue, please go back first."
Chen Yun rejected Yin Yue's proposal without hesitation and summoned her back to him.
Hearing Chen Yun's instructions, Yin Yue did not resist at all, and the mini silver wolf quietly sneaked back into Chen Yun's body.
Then, Chen Yun gently closed his eyes, and apart from silently paying attention to Du Dong's movements, he did not make any other movements.
Time seemed to stand still. Du Dong finally stopped transmitting the message. He raised his head and looked around. There was an elusive and strange light in his eyes.
"Boom!"
At this moment, a deafening roar was heard like the collapse of the sky and the earth, and the entire cave shook violently in an instant.
All the monks who were meditating were frightened by the sudden vibration. They opened their eyes and showed expressions of horror on their faces.
The gray-robed old man and the other three monks also showed surprise on their faces. The yellow-robed monk frowned and thought for a moment, then immediately stood up and rushed towards the stone gate.
However, before he could get close to the stone gate, the door of the cave opened automatically, and a long-faced old man walked in with a gloomy expression.
"Brother Hu, what happened?"
The yellow monk asked anxiously.
"It seems that this place has been discovered! A group of mysterious monks suddenly appeared outside and are attacking the defense formation outside the valley. Not only are there Jindan stage masters, but there are even Yuanying stage monsters involved."
"Judging from their behavior, they are not from the Righteous Alliance, but more like members of the Six Sects of Demonic Path. Other forces definitely don't have such strong power."
“Fellow Daoist Yue, please lead these disciples to the quiet room for refuge. During this period, if anyone dares to enter the Holy Tree Cave, Senior Brother Wei, you don’t need to show mercy, just kill them directly.”
The long-faced old man finished speaking in one breath with murderous intent on his face.
"I understand, Brother Hu, you can go and deal with the enemy without worry, I will do my best to protect this place."
A calm and composed answer came from the old man with untied hair in the light shield.
When the long-faced old man heard this, his expression eased a little and he nodded. Then he hurriedly left the cave with the old man in gray and the middle-aged man from Baiqiaoyuan.
Seeing this, the yellow-robed monk turned to Chen Yun and the others and ordered in a serious tone:
"I've heard it all. The matter of marrow cleansing will be postponed for the time being. Follow me to the quiet room to avoid the limelight for a while."
After saying that, he left quickly without looking back.
The young monks did not dare to delay for even a moment and quickly followed the footsteps of the monk in yellow.
Chen Yun saw that Du Dong obediently followed the other disciples out of the stone forest and out of the cave, and did not show any abnormal behavior.
He sneered in his heart, but on the surface he remained calm and followed everyone else.
After a while, the ten curious disciples, led by the yellow-robed monk, walked around a group of buildings and were finally told to wait in a more spacious stone chamber.
Not long after, the monk in yellow gave them instructions and left quickly. It was obvious that there were more important things to deal with.
Hearing the more violent explosions in the distance and the violent shaking underfoot, it seemed as if telling everyone present that a fierce battle was taking place outside at this moment.
Although these fledgling disciples were filled with nervousness and anxiety, when the yellow-robed monk left, they immediately divided into several small groups according to their respective sects and began to discuss in low voices.
Chen Yun, Du Dong, Mu Peiling and Sun Huo naturally came together.
"It's really shocking. It turns out that Uncle Bai from the Ancient Sword Sect is actually the traitor of the Righteous Alliance! I always thought that he was a Jindan cultivator who came from a casual cultivation background, and I respected him very much!"
Sun Huo seemed to have been holding it in for a long time. He first sighed and expressed his thoughts.
"Junior Brother Sun, do you really think that a casual cultivator can easily achieve the Jindan stage? Without a strong family as a backing, how many people would have the opportunity to enter the Jindan stage?"
Mu Peiling looked at the young man coldly and said without any emotion.
"Haha! I don't think so. Immortal cultivators don't necessarily need a family background to form a pill. I consider myself mediocre, but I won't choose to join any family."
The young man with a resolute face sneered and said with great passion.
Then he subconsciously looked at the beautiful face of the gorgeous woman, and a warm light flashed in his eyes.
However, Mu Peiling seemed to not care about it at all and did not say anything more.
"However, this Master Bai is indeed a person who deserves sympathy."
Du Dong suddenly interrupted.
"Sympathy? Junior Brother Du, what do you mean by that?"
When Sun Huo heard this, he was stunned for a moment, with a hint of confusion on his face.
There was a green light flashing in Mu Peiling's bright eyes, and she looked at the burly man in front of her with the same surprised expression.
"Did I speak to you?"
Du Dong glanced at the young man, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and his expression suddenly became ferocious.
"Who are you anyway?"
Mu Peiling finally realized that something was wrong. Her face darkened, and she quietly placed her slender hand on the storage bag, questioning in a cold tone.
The disciples from the other two sects also noticed the difference between them at this time and cast surprised glances at them.
"Haha! I am a direct disciple of the Demonic Thousand Illusions Sect. Are you two junior brothers satisfied with this answer?"
Suddenly, a man's voice came from outside the house, his tone full of sarcasm.
Then, with a loud bang, the door of the stone chamber instantly broke into countless pieces, with stones flying everywhere.
The disciples in the room were horrified and took out their magic weapons, taking a posture of alert.
A familiar male figure appeared at the broken door. "Uncle Bai!"
A disciple of the Ancient Sword Sect couldn't help but scream out loud when he saw this person. Then his face changed drastically, and he was filled with shock.
When the other disciples saw the green-robed scholar who suddenly appeared, they were also stunned and at a loss.
They had witnessed with their own eyes how this person was subdued and imprisoned. Why was he here now? And looking at his energetic appearance, it didn't look like his magic power was sealed.
"Why are you so late? If you don't show up soon, we'll take action."
When Du Dong saw the monk named Bai appear, there was no surprise on his face. Instead, he questioned coldly.
"Haha, you don't know the power of the Fire Dragon Boy's sword. Even though I was well prepared, it still took me some effort."
The monk surnamed Bai responded without any concealment.
"Haha! Actually, we didn't expect this either, but everything is within our expectations. Uncle Fen and Senior Qin from your pavilion will definitely be able to buy us enough time."
After hearing the two's questions and answers, the young disciples present, although not sure what had happened, realized that the situation was probably not optimistic.
A disciple from the Ancient Sword Sect reacted quickly and immediately turned into a dazzling red light, controlling his magic weapon and rushing towards the stone gate, trying to find a way to escape.
However, as soon as the disciple passed by the monk surnamed Bai, a terrifying murderous look appeared on the scholar's face, and a dazzling white light flashed by.
There was a sharp scream immediately afterwards, and the disciple and the magic weapon he was controlling were instantly cut into two pieces. The corpse fell heavily to the ground with a "thump".
Seeing that their companions who had just fought side by side suffered heavy casualties in an instant, the other monks all turned pale as paper and released various protective shields and defensive magic weapons. Most of them stared at the Confucian scholar, not daring to look away.
At this moment, no one dared to act rashly.
Mu Peiling's expression suddenly became extremely solemn. She immediately moved away from Du Dong and used her silk ribbon magic weapon to protect her whole body.
As for the cultivator named Sun Huo, the moment the Confucian scholar appeared, he quietly retreated a few steps, his eyes wandering back and forth between the Confucian scholar and Du Dong, his face looking extremely ugly.
Chen Yun moved quietly to a corner of the quiet room, staring at everything in front of him with flickering eyes, as if he was thinking about something.
At this moment, Du Dong's aura suddenly exploded, his whole body was shrouded in a dark light, and black runes appeared on his face and neck.
Then, his figure expanded rapidly in the light, and instantly turned into a giant two meters tall, with a hideous and terrifying face, his eyes showing a strange green color, and his cultivation level suddenly rose to the middle stage of the Jindan realm.
"When it comes to the art of concealment and transformation, the Qianhuan Sect is second to none in the Tiannan region. No one can surpass them. The Daluo Qianhuan Jue is indeed worthy of its name and can be called the treasure of your sect."
When the monk surnamed Bai saw Du Dong showing such an amazing change, he was not surprised. Instead, he clapped his hands in praise with joy.
"Humph!"
The giant transformed by Du Dong snorted coldly and did not make any response. Instead, he scanned the people present with cold eyes.
"The disciples here cannot be slaughtered at will. Several of them have deep backgrounds. One of them is the direct descendant of that old monster Tianhen. Be careful!"
Seeing Du Dong behaving so strangely, the Confucian scholar hurriedly spoke out to remind him.
"Humph! I get it, but we can't let them mess around. Just let them lie down for a while."
As soon as he finished speaking, Du Dong spun around on the spot. The black light on his body splashed everywhere like a violent storm, covering the sky and the sun, completely enveloping the entire quiet room.
After hearing their previous conversation, the monks felt a little relieved, but were instantly enveloped by the black light.
Suddenly, everyone felt dizzy and lost consciousness.
Looking at the scene where all the disciples in the room had fainted, the scholar nodded slightly, revealing a look of satisfaction.
"We must act quickly without delay."
"clear."
The two of them chatted with each other, then started walking and headed straight for the door.
After the two left, the quiet space immediately returned to silence, as if even the birds and sparrows were silent.
Chen Yun slowly stood up, his eyes as sharp as torches as he swept over the people lying unconscious on the ground, and finally stopped at Meng Di, a young man in a black robe.
Yin Yue seemed to have sensed Chen Yun's thoughts. After a few jumps, she landed steadily on the young man.
A little bit of silver light flashed, and he quickly pulled off the storage bag from his waist. Then he turned into a silver light and returned to Chen Yun, respectfully handing over the storage bag.
Chen Yun smiled slightly and took the storage bag without hesitation.
Then, he used his spiritual sense to scan lightly and found the jade box containing the Dingling Pill.
Then, he casually put the storage bag back on the young man.
After all, this item might not be so practical for the young man, so Chen Yun accepted the gift without hesitation.
"Let's go! Those two friends should have already reached the cave of the Spirit Eye Tree. Let's catch up with them and see what the situation is."
Chen Yun carefully put the jade box into his pocket, gently stroked his beard, and called softly.
Then, he waved his hand, wrapped the little white fox tightly, and turned into a dazzling golden rainbow, rushing out of the quiet room.
At this time, the sound of explosions outside continued without stopping for a moment.
When Chen Yun arrived at the entrance of the cave, the stone door was wide open, the restriction had been lifted, and the two men had already entered.
Moreover, from deep within the cave, there were faint sounds of angry and surprised conversations.
"Brother Wei, what do you mean? Things have come to a critical moment, why do you suddenly change your mind? You have been in Luoyun Sect for too long. Have you really forgotten your identity as a disciple of Tiansha Sect?"
At this time, Du Dong's extremely dissatisfied voice came from a distance.
Chen Yun did not enter rashly. Instead, his spiritual sense surged and he immediately explored the entire cave.
There were actually seven or eight people hiding in the cave, one of whom was a master in the Nascent Soul stage, and there were several cultivators in the Core Formation stage. They all hid quietly under the ground of the cave, as if they were waiting for something to happen.
So Chen Yun quietly sneaked into the cave, hid far away in a corner, and observed everything in front of him calmly.
Several Jindan stage cultivators underground were shrouded in a faint yellow light. Chen Yun was familiar with the person who cast the spell. It was the boy named Lan who was supposed to be outside resisting the enemy's attacks.
Because of this, the three people above never discovered the ambush underground. (End of this chapter)
