Chapter 4262: Ghost fog formation

Translator: 549690339

In their eyes, there was nothing to be afraid of even if there were ghosts and monsters of the legends. Ghosts were just a form of the primordial spirit. No matter how powerful they were, they were far from being as powerful as cultivators.

Everyone cheered themselves on in this way. After walking for an entire incense stick’s time, there were indeed no accidents. They couldn’t help but feel more at ease, and their steps were no longer as timid as before.

However, after a while, Lin Yi felt that something was wrong. The Jade started sending out a faint warning. His heart jumped. Something was wrong!

“Xiao Tao!” Lin Yi subconsciously held Huang xiaotao’s hand tightly and turned around at the same time. He realized that other than Huang xiaotao, who he was holding, the others had disappeared.

Before, no matter how thick the fog was, they could only see a vague shadow because they were only one or two steps away from each other. But now, they couldn’t even see a shadow. Guo dengtao and Wang Feng, who were walking in front, and Chu bubai and Feng Hongyu, who were walking behind, had all disappeared in an instant.

There was indeed a problem! Lin Yi was shocked, but at the same time, he couldn’t help but feel lucky that he was holding onto Huang xiaotao. Otherwise, Huang xiaotao might’ve disappeared with him.

“What … What’s going on here … Why are the others missing …” Huang xiaotao finally realized that something was wrong. Her voice could not help but tremble. After all, she was a girl. Being in such a strange environment, she was still very nervous.

“Don’t act rashly. Let’s observe the situation first!” Lin Yi lowered his voice and looked around, trying to use his spirit sense to sense the area. It was the same as before-his tried and tested spirit sense didn’t react at all.

At this moment, a familiar voice came from behind. It was Chu bubai.

“This is the ghost fog formation! We can’t stay here for too long. Everyone, hurry up and charge forward. As long as we keep charging forward, we’ll be able to pass!” As soon as he finished speaking, a few swooshing sounds could be heard. It was clear that someone was rushing forward quickly.

Huang Xiao Tao subconsciously wanted to rush forward, but she was pulled back by Lin Yi before she could even take a step.

“Xiao Tao, calm down!” Lin Yi said in a low voice.

Although the sound was not loud, it was like an evening drum and a morning bell, directly hitting Huang xiaotao’s heart. Her body suddenly trembled, and then she suddenly woke up with a face of shock.

“What … What happened to me just now?” Huang xiaotao couldn’t help but shiver in fear. Chu bubai’s voice seemed to have some kind of bewitching magic that made her lose her mind, which was why she subconsciously followed his orders. If Lin Yi didn’t pull her back in time, she wouldn’t know where she would’ve run to.

“You must have been bewitched just now. Chu bubai is indeed strange!” Lin Yi said cautiously as he observed his surroundings.

It was only now that he finally understood Chu bubai’s intentions. All along the way, everyone had followed him and built up enough trust. At the same time, they had subconsciously let down their guard and began to follow his orders blindly.

This was especially true after they had entered the fog. They had followed Chu bubai’s instructions for almost every step they took, which further strengthened this subconscious habit. In addition, this person’s voice had used some unknown method, which clearly had the effect of confusing people’s minds. This was why everyone subconsciously followed his instructions.

This was a trap that had been set up from the very beginning. From the moment they agreed to join the group, everyone had already fallen into Chu bubai’s hypnotizing rhythm. Chu bubai was actually so scheming!

Fortunately, Lin Yi had his suspicions from the beginning and paid attention to all kinds of suspicions, so he didn’t take the bait like the others. Plus, he had a strong will, how could he be bewitched by ordinary people?

Although Lin Yi heard that something was wrong, he couldn’t see the situation clearly in this place. He didn’t dare to act rashly. At this time, he couldn’t care about the others and could only care about Huang xiaotao.

“Confuse the mind? “No wonder I couldn’t control my body just now …” Hearing Lin Yi’s words, Huang xiaotao was shocked. At the same time, she was secretly glad that Lin Yi was by her side.”What should we do now?”

“I can’t see the situation clearly, so I can only bide my time and stay here for a while.” Lin Yi said as he tried his best to listen in on their surroundings.

In this situation, his eyes and divine sense were useless. Only his ears were slightly better. If there was any movement around him, he could at least hear some sounds.

“Yes.” Huang xiaotao nodded with lingering fear. She held Lin Yi’s hand tightly and, like Lin Yi, was on guard against everything around them.

The two waited quietly for a while, but there was no movement around them. To Lin Yi, no matter what tricks Chu bubai was up to, Guo dengtao and Wang Feng were still true-blue mid-stage golden core cultivators. Even if they fell for some kind of trick, there should still be some room for struggle. They wouldn’t just be killed so quietly, right?

Of course, if one were to think about it in an extreme way, Chu bubai would not have left any room for them to turn things around given his shrewdness. It was not impossible for Guo dengtao and the others to disappear without a trace.

However, the problem was that Chu bubai had spent so much effort to bring these people who had nothing to do with him to this place and then killed them. What was the purpose of this?

Lin Yi couldn’t figure it out yet, but he had a feeling that it had something to do with the baby ginseng. After all, the baby ginseng’s scent couldn’t be faked, but he couldn’t tell what the connection was.

“Have they gone far? “Or …” Huang xiaotao held Lin Yi’s hand tightly and didn’t dare to continue. Even now, she could still see the ghostly figures flashing around her.

If nothing had happened to Guo dengtao and the others, Chu bubai would definitely have come up with a countermeasure when he realized that they had not followed him. Even if he did not come back to look for them personally, he would have thought of ways to send a signal or something. However, there was no movement at all in front of them.

If Lin Yi was right and Chu bubai really had ulterior motives, then Guo dengtao and the others would most likely be dead. Thinking of this, Huang xiaotao couldn’t help but feel her hair stand on end. If Lin Yi didn’t pull her back just now, she would’ve definitely been dragged into this!

“I don’t know. For now, we can only take one step at a time.” Lin Yi said in a low voice. He wasn’t sure what to do, so he could only wait and see. (To be continued.) ”
