Light and shadow appeared on the right, and a man wearing a Chongxu Taoist robe appeared. His face was a little embarrassed, but he said:

"I was looking at Xiao'er. I didn't pay much attention to other things."

"how?"

The elder of Chongxu Sect looked at Xun Ziyou, pretending to be indifferent and said, "Have you lost me?"

Xunziyou was too lazy to pay attention to him.

The two of them each let go of their consciousness and searched the mountains and forests, and then both frowned.

"It's really gone..." Elder Chongxumen also became serious, looking puzzled:

"What methods does that demon cultivator have to hide from the spiritual consciousness of our two golden elixir cultivators?"

"Concealment technique? Concealment of spiritual weapons?"

Xun Ziyou shook his head.

The world of cultivation is vast and there are many types of martial arts, Taoism, spiritual weapons, and it is difficult for him to determine at the moment.

Logically speaking, with such a huge difference in realm and consciousness, even if there were some means of concealment or masking the aura, it would be impossible to hide it from their perception.

Moreover, there is a more important question.

Xun Ziyou frowned and said:

"How come there are demon cultivators in Demon Refining Mountain?"

The elder of Chongxu Sect also looked solemnly:

"There are formations all around to seal the mountain. At the mountain gate, there is an formation to monitor the aura of demons. Every disciple who enters the mountain has been examined with an evil spirit mirror. We elders will also patrol the mountain continuously..."

"There will only be sect disciples in this mountain. Apart from us Jindan elders who patrol, there can be no other monks."

"Why are there demon cultivators?"

"How did it get into the mountain, how did it hide in the mountain, and what is its plan?"

Both of them looked a little solemn.

"Do you want to search the mountain?"

"If there is too much noise, it will make things worse, make people panic, cause trouble, and it may not be possible to find..."

After all, the demon cultivator disappeared under the noses of the two golden elixir cultivators.

"Stare here for a while?"

Xun Ziyou shook his head: "Not that much time."

Their first priority is to protect Mo Hua and Linghu Xiao.

Both of them sighed.

Elder Chongxumen looked at the forest in front of him again, becoming more and more confused as he looked, and murmured in a low voice:

"What method was used to blind you and my consciousness..."

Xun Ziyou also stared at the mountain forest, frowning in confusion.

After watching for a while, Xunzi was startled and his eyes were solemn:

"Xuanjian, you have been in the Demon Refining Mountain for so long, have you ever seen this forest?"

Elder Chongxumen was stunned for a moment, then looked at the forest in front of him, his brows slowly furrowed.

"It does seem... a bit strange..."

Demon Refining Mountain is very big and has many mountains and forests.

But as an elder, he has been stationed at Demon Refining Mountain for a long time and has been to most places.

But the mountain forest in front of us, although it looks like an ordinary forest, is very different from other mountains and forests. At most, it is a little wider and the edges cannot be seen at a glance, but in comparison, the atmosphere is indeed too unfamiliar...

"What you mean is that it's not that the demon cultivator is clever at hiding, but that... there's something fishy in this forest?"

Elder Chongxumen asked.

Xunzi nodded slowly.

Elder Chongxumen let go of his consciousness and scanned around.

However, although they have golden elixirs and powerful spiritual consciousness, they have not undergone qualitative changes, their perceptions are not sharp enough, they are not proficient in formations, and they have no experience in related formations.

When his consciousness swept away, the surrounding mountains and forests were still empty.

The elder of Chongxu Sect couldn't help but ask: "What's so fishy?"

Xun Ziyou shook his head.

He hasn't figured it out yet.

Xun Ziyou frowned and thought, and suddenly thought of ink painting.

He remembered that Mo Hua had just stared at the forest for a long time, his eyes getting brighter and brighter, as if he had discovered something.

After that, he took steps to enter the forest, but hesitated for a moment and did not go in. Before leaving, he turned back and took a meaningful look at this strange dense forest.

Xunzi thought about it carefully and found it a little unbelievable.

The kid in Mo Hua... won't see anything, right?

"But how is that possible?"

Even the two dignified Golden Core cultivators couldn't tell. How could he, a Foundation Establishment cultivator, tell it?

Xun Ziyou frowned.

But if it is true...

If the child in Mo Hua really saw something.

That means that the secret of this forest involves something that I am very proficient in ink painting, but I am not good at it.

That is... the formation!

This dense forest has been set up with a formation, so it can unknowingly block the spiritual consciousness of the Jindan cultivator and provide a hiding place for the demon cultivator?

What kind of formation?

Xun Ziyou looked at the ordinary forest in front of him. There was no trace of the formation, no clues at all, and his expression was a little dazed.

What kind of formation can this have?

How did you figure out the child in Mo Hua?

No matter what, he is also a golden elixir.

He who has lived for more than two hundred years cannot see it, but this child, who is less than twenty years old, can see it...

Xun Ziyou sighed deeply.

Geniuses just hate it.

Especially the genius in formation.

The formation is too obscure and the water inside is too deep.

For some formation geniuses, you don’t even know what makes them so good, let alone how big the gap is between you and them...

The elder of Chongxu Sect on the side saw Xun Ziyou's expression change, sighed, and frowned and asked:

"Do you know something?"

Xun Ziyou was startled for a moment, then came back to his senses. After thinking about it for a while, he felt that these were just his own guesses, so it was better not to tell them out yet.

"No, I just lamented that we elders were negligent and allowed a demon cultivator to sneak in." Xunzi sighed leisurely.

Hearing this, the elder of Chongxu Sect also nodded.

Xun Ziyou said again: "This matter is quite weird. After reporting it to the sect, we can discuss a solution. Please don't press it for now, so as not to let the news leak out..."

"That's fine." Elder Chongxumen nodded.

After the two discussed it, they prepared to leave.

But before leaving, Elder Chongxumen suddenly remembered something, felt a little palpitated, and asked:

"By the way, what's going on with that 'sword-riding' thing?"

Xun Ziyou pretended to be stupid and said, "What's the 'sword'?"

The elder of Chongxu Sect was not angry, "Don't pretend to be stupid for me. I saw it with my own eyes. Even though the child was a hundred to tens of feet away, he didn't gather his sword energy. His consciousness was shocked, and a spiritual sword hit him directly.

It flew out with brilliant golden light, exploding a ball of sword energy, crushing the demon cultivator's demonized arm, and staining half of his body with blood..."

That kid named Mo Hua is only in the middle stage of foundation building.

A sword at this level has such sharp techniques, such a long distance, such a fast speed, and such a powerful power...

Elder Chongxumen is still frightened when he thinks about it now.

Xun Ziyou looked "shocked" and shook his head:
To be continued...
