The sect asked me to marry, and I cultivated to the pinnacle of martial arts!

"Lu Ye...where are you? Lu Ye?"

A moment later, a sense of unease crept into Xiao Qingyin's heart, and she called out softly.

Unfortunately, the sound traveled around but received no response.

"Strange, how did it suddenly disappear? Could it be some kind of illusion?" Xiao Qingyin wondered to herself.

She felt that this mountain range was indeed a bit strange, but the last time she came, the white fog didn't seem to be this thick.

After a moment's thought, Xiao Qingyin quickened her pace slightly.

Then reach out and touch it.

She felt that if it was an illusion, it would at most give her eyes the illusion that she couldn't see what was in front of her.

But in reality, as long as Lu Ye is still there, he should be able to reach out and touch him.

However, when Xiao Qingyin actually did it, she found that there was still nothing in front of her.

"No... I was wrong? If this is a trick, then it's quite something."

At this moment, Xiao Qingyin was actually quite calm.

She knew that staying put at this point wouldn't do much good.

Perhaps Lu Ye has already noticed this situation. What she needs to do is to create as much noise as possible, or find some loopholes in the deception.

At the same time, Lu Ye was also making this attempt.

He stopped slowing down and began using his movement techniques to accelerate, speeding off in a certain direction...

A moment later, when Lu Ye found that the surrounding scenery had become familiar again, he knew that there was indeed a mist formation in front of him.

He returned to the same spot.

"This is yet another formation..."

Having obtained information that it was an array formation, Lu Ye began to use his knowledge of array formations to observe the surrounding movements.

Meanwhile, out of Lu Ye's sight, two figures were hiding behind a large tree, watching a certain place.

These two people looked like normal humans, but their ears were clearly very different from those of ordinary people, more like... those of the Spirit Rabbit clan.

"Second sister, that human seems to have... discovered something. Could he really come out and into our territory, capture us all, and... roast us? I don't want to be roasted!"

The one called Second Sister was an older rabbit. She glared at Third Sister when she heard her words.

"You still dare to talk! What if they're just passing by and you suddenly activate our clan's outer formation? What if they get really angry? I bet you'll be braised, or at least extra spicy!"

This mountain range is actually the habitat of the Spirit Rabbit clan.

Therefore, deep within the mountains, there also exists a large formation of the rabbit race.

Lu Ye is currently trapped in the outer maze, which has no offensive capabilities and simply makes it difficult to distinguish directions.

The cause of this incident left the late-stage Innate Realm rabbit clan member, who had rushed over, speechless.

Simply because another long-eared rabbit happened to be playing there.

Suddenly, two people came in from outside the mountain, heading towards what seemed to be the tribe's territory.

These two humans gave the Long-eared Rabbit Clan the feeling of being just as terrifying as the clan's elders!
In a sudden panic, he found the hidden emergency activation device for the formation on the outer perimeter and immediately opened the maze.

Another older rabbit heard the news and rushed over. Upon seeing this scene, he immediately felt dizzy and his vision went black.

Who locks someone in a maze before even showing hostility?! "Ah?! I really don't want to become braised meat, Second Sister, how about... how about we go and close the maze now?" The long-eared rabbit trembled with fright upon hearing this and quickly said.

The older rabbit was about to say something when his expression suddenly changed, and he whispered, "This human... seems to know about formations too! He actually found the location of a formation's core."

Such an advanced maze cannot have only one key point, otherwise it would be easy for someone to solve the whole thing.

However, as long as a key point in the formation is found, the impact can be significantly reduced.

Sure enough, Lu Ye, inside the formation, arrived at a seemingly ordinary rock and struck it with his hand...

Bang!
The stone shattered instantly, and as a result, the surrounding scenery seemed to become much clearer, and the surrounding white mist also dissipated by half at this moment.

At this moment, in Lu Ye's spiritual sense, Xiao Qingyin's figure reappeared, actually about seventy or eighty meters away from him, cautiously probing something.

When Lu Ye looked over, she was marking a tree.

Judging from her appearance, Lu Ye guessed it too. She also realized that something was wrong with this place, like an illusion array, which was why she took the step of making a mark.

When she sensed that the surroundings had changed compared to before, Xiao Qingyin glanced to the side...

"Lu Ye?!"

Overwhelmed with joy, Xiao Qingyin stopped making marks and rushed over.

"I thought you had disappeared."

"This should be a maze. I just happened to break one of its key points, which weakened its effect considerably and reduced its shielding ability," Lu Ye nodded and explained.

"It really is a maze. I knew something was wrong when I suddenly couldn't see anyone anymore." Upon hearing this, Xiao Qingyin's expression turned somewhat serious.

"It's alright, I've already figured out some of the patterns in this formation, it'll just take some time." Lu Ye shook his head, just as he was about to head to the next location.

A slightly anxious voice suddenly came from the side...

"Hold on, hero!"

At the same time, the surrounding white mist began to retreat rapidly into the mountains behind.

That feeling of being trapped in a maze has completely disappeared.

Hearing the voice beside him, Lu Ye raised an eyebrow. He always felt that someone was watching him.

So, it really does exist.

Xiao Qingyin was full of surprise. When she saw two figures on the road that were clearly not normal humans, her eyes widened slightly.

"The rabbit race?!"

The older rabbit led the long-eared rabbit over, looking apologetic: "I'm sorry, fellow Daoists, what happened just now caused you trouble..."

"However, we really didn't mean any harm. This is just a fog trap, an outer defensive formation of our clan. My third sister was playing outside just now, and she's a bit timid."

"When I saw you coming into the mountains, I was so frightened that I immediately activated the maze, causing you both trouble. I'm really sorry."

The young long-eared rabbit clansman lowered his head in shame; the Hui clan would surely be punished.

Upon hearing this, Lu Ye pondered for a moment.

His senses are now very sharp, and he can usually detect if someone has ill intentions towards him.

Indeed, no malice was detected in these two rabbits. (End of Chapter)
