Chapter 268: eavesdropping

Translator: 549690339 

this was the first time bai wushang had encountered resonance.

a phenomenon that should have been extremely rare had suddenly appeared beside him. he was indeed caught off guard.

xiao ci didn’t even know what it was, and had no way of knowing what kind of divine being it was that had formed a connection with her.

but it was inexplicably excited, an indescribable sense of excitement.

after bai wushang asked in-depth questions, he looked up at the lightning blade mantis’s big eyes and rubbed his eyebrows, speechless.

after repeated probing, the answer he got was that xiao ci thought it was something to eat, something very delicious.

it was even more delicious than the red lightning scorpion!

“is this just your imagination or your instinct?”

“thunderbolt …”

as if a basin of cold water had been poured on her head, xiao ci was at a loss and could not answer.

“there are too few clues …”

bai wushang began to think. what should he do? should i go and take a look?

there was enough time. there were still three days left, so it wasn’t a tight schedule.

however, the “thing” that xiao ci resonated with was definitely not an ordinary thing.

if it was a heavenly treasure, it might face a very terrifying guardian monster.

if it wasn’t, but a living person, then it was still terrifying!

there was no such thing as a free lunch in the world. there were gains and losses.

exploration, acquisition, and safe return. this kind of easy and perfect result was automatically erased by bai wushang.

it was too unreal, the possibility was infinitely close to zero!

however, after thinking about it over and over again, he still couldn’t refuse this temptation.

in the end, the greater the risk, the greater the reward.

the mystery of unknown was a wonderful opportunity.

let’s go take a look! go and investigate before making a decision!

with the great teleportation talisman, bai wushang had the confidence to ensure the safety of his core.

in addition, it was said that the resonance was mutual.

since xiao ci could sense it, it would be fine if the other party was dead.

if it was a living creature, it could also sense xiao ci’s existence.

even though that mysterious state only lasted for a moment.

but imperceptibly, bai wushang had already been placed on the edge of danger, in the whirlpool of wind and waves.

the front was dangerous, and the back was dangerous.

he might as well take the initiative and face the difficulties!

he informed ah zhou and milky way of his decision, reminding them to be on their guard.

bai wushang began to use the positioning tool to lock on to the direction he had obtained during the resonance, and then took a detour.

they passed through the winding tunnel and stepped on the messy and disorderly gravel.

he was surprised to find that he was walking up the hole and getting closer to the ground.

as if sensing that the destination was right in front of him, bai wushang recalled xiao ci.

the movement of its flight was too big, and it would easily alert the enemy.

he stayed where he was for a minute, waiting for the cooldown of the pet space to end.

this was to ensure that he could immediately summon the lightning blade mantis again if he encountered any problems.

bai wushang held his breath and continued to move forward.

the three-eyed demon ape also switched from walking to stealth mode.

he would rather consume more physical strength to ensure that there was no sound.

only the little rabbit peeked out from the metal bag, peeking around sneakily.

“what?”

bai wushang stopped in his tracks.

there were things buried one meter underground in the tunnel ahead, like some kind of alarm trap.

in theory, as long as a living being stepped on it, the trap would be activated.

it might cause a loud noise and alert the master of the trap.

it could also trigger other binding devices, indirectly trapping or threatening the safety of the prey.

” the skill of setting up this trap is far superior to mine. it’s so natural that all traces of human activity are hidden … ”

” but this undoubtedly proves that there must be a human master in front of us. ”

bai wushang thought for a moment and then used climbing tools to climb up the wall.

he did not expect to encounter all kinds of special devices in every section of the area.

there were light detectors hanging on the top of the wall, and there were also sound wave detection talismans hidden in the soil and rocks. there were all kinds of methods and methods.

if it was an ordinary soul servant-ranked master, no matter how experienced he was, he would have fallen for the trap in just two moves.

bai wushang relied on his spatial perception. wherever there were ” foreign objects ” around him, he would be able to detect them in advance and avoid them with precision.

just like that, they passed through five or six checkpoints and approached a very wide passage.

they could see a very bright yellow light shining from the inside of the cave on the wall outside, which was very eye-catching in the darkness.

it was accompanied by a continuous sizzling sound.

these days, bai wushang and xiao ci had stayed for a long time, and they subconsciously judged that this was the sound of electric arcs colliding.

after listening for a few seconds, he was more certain.

even though it was not particularly strong, there was no doubt that this was the elemental energy of the lightning series!

“strong light and electric arcs … what could they be?” bai wushang pondered.

he didn’t dare to breathe too loudly. his entire body was covered in herbs to conceal his aura, and he was extremely careful.

immediately, he gently leaned his ear against the stone wall.

the helmet part of the lightning-controlling armor had already been removed.

just now, he could vaguely hear human voices, but they were mixed in with the sound of electric arcs, so he couldn’t hear clearly.

bai wushang had no choice but to use this stupid method to try and obtain more information.

” jie … this crazy woman is really something … it’s been almost an hour … i’m a little worried … ”

” second uncle and fourth grandpa … will be fine … besides, there’s also little jie … don’t worry … we’ll definitely be able to kill her! ”

“by the way … do you guys have any food … share some with me … i’m so hungry …” he said.

at least three or four people started to speak.

bai wushang could barely make out that they seemed to be hunting together, jointly killing a person, a woman.

that woman should be extremely powerful, and the descriptions of her included ” crazy woman “, ” demoness “, and ” fierce woman. ”

these few people could talk or chat.

all of them were surrounding the man named ” ah jie ” and ” xiao jie “, with him as the center.

” from their tone, some people are slightly anxious, but more people are certain that they can defeat that woman. ”

” however, they are clearly ‘spectating’, but i can’t hear any battle sounds. why is that? ”

bai wushang turned it over and over again, drawing out a few low probability results, and then locked onto one of the most likely reasons, the suan ni formation!

if a formation used to trap an enemy came with functions like “silence,””isolation,” and “concealment,” it could achieve a similar effect.

” this yellow light and the sound of electric arcs … could it be a lightning-attribute array?! ”

bai wushang was secretly shocked. this thing couldn’t possibly be cheap, it was definitely outrageously expensive.

at the very least, it would cost at least a few hundred thousand gold coins, and a set of formations would be comparable to an egg of an ancient species, or even more.

even if it didn’t have any attack power and only had the effect of sealing, it could be called a great killing weapon.

in that case, how strong was the woman they wanted to kill?

bai wushang said thoughtfully.

then, he thought of the one hour that he had mentioned.

looking at the time, it matched the point of xiao ci’s resonance. could this be the source?
