The black shadows were extremely fast, but what was even more strange was their movement, which was as blurry as a puff of smoke, making it impossible to discern their figures.

Looking at the dark figure rushing toward him, Zhou Shu raised his hand, and two thunderstorm talismans suddenly appeared and exploded in front of him.

At the same time, he jumped back suddenly.

On the other side, You Jing was at a loss, carrying a huge bucket on his back, as stunned as a log.

"Little tricks."

The black shadow sneered, walked straight through the lightning, and grabbed it out of thin air.

Zhou Shu's whole body was stagnant, suppressed by the sudden huge pressure, and he could not use his spiritual power. The ivy talisman in his hand became a decoration, and he had to let the black shadow lift him up, and then he lost consciousness.

I don't know how long it took, but Zhou Shu slowly woke up.

He had a splitting headache and suppressed the sound. His body was numb and his feeling was a little dull. It seemed that he had been drugged. But fortunately, it was within control.

The air was cold and the surroundings were dark, like late at night, but considering the time, he definitely didn't faint for that long, and he should be in a cave somewhere.

A huge bucket was placed in front of him. You Jing was lying beside the bucket, motionless, not knowing whether to live or die.

Thumb, thump——

A few light footsteps came from not far away.

Zhou Shu, whose Qi channels were fully opened, had much stronger eyesight and ears than ordinary cultivators. As soon as he heard the sound, he immediately held his breath and concentrated without moving at all.

The two mask cultivators approached slowly, glanced at Zhou Shu who was lying on the ground, and said disdainfully, "It seems like this is the third time we have met this guy. He was very alert, but he still caught him, haha."

"It's ridiculous that a mere casual cultivator on the second level of the Qi Refining Realm can escape from our Wuzhishan."

"The last time I saw you, I was still at the first level of Qi Refining Realm. I was practicing pretty quickly. By the way, have you fed me the God of Eclipse Pill?"

"certainly."

The cultivator looked up and saw many cultivators lying down not far away. They were all pale, unconscious and unconscious.

"You have to feed it every day to maintain the effectiveness of the medicine. This Eclipse Pill is not as effective as those pills from the Demon Sect, and the effect is not that good."

"Know."

"Catch three more, and we will have a total number of people. When the time comes, the master will set up the fire refining formation and collect their souls. We will all benefit greatly."

"Haha, the hard days are coming to an end. I'll work harder these days and try to get everything together."

The two laughed for a while and followed the way they came.

After the two of them were far away, Zhou Shu quietly sat up, looked around, and was suddenly shocked.

The cave was dark and very vast. If you looked closely, the ground was filled with unconscious cultivators. There were nearly 80 people, both male and female.

shocking.

Being here inexplicably makes one's hair stand on end.

But Zhou Shu didn't react much and thought quietly.

"Most of these people are missing casual cultivators. Unexpectedly, they were all caught here. So what is the fire refining formation that the masked cultivator said..."

Thinking about it, you know that it is definitely not a good formation. These casual cultivators, including yourself, will all be in trouble.

We must find a way to leave quickly.

You Jing was still asleep next to him. Zhou Shu fiddled with it a few times, but nothing happened. When he opened his eyelids, he saw that his pupils were dull and dull, indicating that he had temporarily lost consciousness and could not wake up at all.

"It should be because of the Eclipse Pills. Taking them every day has caused these cultivators to temporarily lose their minds and cannot wake up. But why did I wake up?"

Zhou Shu didn't feel it was strange, but after a little use of his spiritual power, he came to some understanding.

He could feel the remaining medicinal power in his body, but the amount was very small and not enough to lose his mind. Apparently most of the medicinal power was lost in the broken Qi meridians and had no major impact on him.

"I didn't expect that the Qi veins are damaged, but it is a good thing at this time..."

The damaged Qi meridians made it difficult for him to absorb spiritual energy, so taking elixirs without control would be in vain, but at the same time, poisons and medicines had no effect on him.

After countless deductions, Zhou Shu knew his body very well. It took him more than half an hour to force out the remaining medicinal power from his body. His mind became much clearer and his body returned to normal.

He lay back as he was and began to think.

There is only one exit to the cave, and it doesn't look far away, but it doesn't seem that easy to escape.

The two black figures who captured him and You Jing before were obviously much higher than him. They were at least cultivators of the sixth level of Qi Refining Realm or above. Not to mention that the master they said was only stronger than them.

, if you go out rashly, you will probably be discovered. If you are caught again, the consequences will be disastrous.

Moreover, when he was arrested, all the talismans and other things he carried were searched cleanly. Except for an ivy talisman in his hand, there was nothing else.

If you meet the mask cultivator head-on, you have almost no chance of winning.

But there is still time. Judging from the words of the mask cultivator, it seems that they will not start to set up the formation until they have gathered the number of people, and it will not take a day or two.

After thinking for a while, Zhou Shu slowly stood up and followed the unconscious cultivators one by one.

"Don't blame me. I'm looking for a way to escape. After I escape, I will find someone to rescue you."

After searching around, I found very little. They were all casual cultivators, and they had all been searched by mask cultivators. Basically, there was nothing left. Except for three hairpins that looked like gold and jade, there was nothing else.

He put away the gold hairpin and lay back down. After a while, he came up with some ideas.

Those mask cultivators would come every day to feed these casual cultivators Eclipse Pills to maintain the efficacy of the medicine. At that time, there seemed to be only one cultivator, maybe...

Time gradually passed, and the dark and damp cave became as quiet as night, with only the sound of dripping water from time to time breaking the silence.

Thumb——

The sound of footsteps gradually came, and sure enough, there was only one person.

The mask cultivator who came in scanned it with a sinister look and found nothing unusual, so he took out a jade bottle, walked in from the door, and fed every cultivator lying down with Eclipse Pills.

Zhou Shu held the golden hairpin tightly in his right hand, relaxed his whole body, and waited for the opportunity to come.

Not long after, the mask cultivator walked up to Zhou Shu.

"snort."

He glanced at Zhou Shu disdainfully, lowered his body, and placed his right hand on Zhou Shu's chin. The mandible opened in response, and a bright yellow pill was immediately thrown into Zhou Shu's mouth.

Just as the mask cultivator was about to stand up, a sudden change occurred!

Two golden hairpins suddenly flew up and flew towards his eyes at an extremely fast speed.

The distance was too close, and the mask cultivator never thought that Zhou Shu was actually awake and could still use spells and even weapons.

Although his cultivation level is several levels higher than Zhou Shu's, he is not at the foundation-building level after all. He cannot release his spiritual consciousness and is unlikely to predict danger.

In panic, he tried to put up a protective shield to defend himself, but was ultimately too late.

The golden hairpin went directly into his eyes, blood spattered, and his eyes were already blind.

"ah--"

The exclamation was not even halfway out.

There was a sudden blockage in the mouth, and something was blocked in the throat and went straight into the abdomen.

But it was Zhou Shu who used his mouth to cast the Cloud Expelling Technique and returned the original Eclipse Pill that he had not swallowed.

The mask cultivator was extremely angry. He put his palms together and used all his spiritual power to strike out flatly. At the same time, he jumped back and tried to escape.

But at this time, the Eclipse Pill had taken effect, and his movements were much slower.

Zhou Shu was well prepared and dodged as soon as possible. In an instant, a strange green vine appeared faintly under his feet.

The green vine talisman required a long time to activate, but before the mask cultivator fed the medicine, Zhou Shu calculated the time to issue the talisman, and at this time, it just took effect.

Green vines emerged from the ground, like flexible green snakes, and quickly wrapped themselves up. In just one breath, they wrapped the mask repairer like a rice dumpling.

With a pop, the mask repairer fell to the ground.

All arrangements have been calculated long ago, and there are no omissions.
