Mortal's journey to immortality

Chapter 731 The thief never escapes

Wang Lu didn't know that he had stepped into the tightly guarded encirclement of the Kong family.

The cave he chose was relatively close to the small courtyard where the treasure was hidden, a few hundred feet away. With his current strength, as long as he was careful, he could enter and exit like a bag.

In all the big cities he went to, except for Tianhai City, which did not interfere in the operation of day and night, almost all other cities had set up formations to make the night as bright as day.

The same is true for Kongcheng. There is no time difference between day and night. However, there are indeed many fewer people coming at night.

Hey, forcibly reversing the laws of nature can be regarded as the most direct resistance for monks to go against nature.

As the sun set, the news about Wang Lu coming through the teleportation array from the Kong family's residence in Tianhai City was noticed by Kong Hu. He thought deeply and immediately made detailed arrangements.

He guessed that Su Quan, the incarnation of Wang Lu, was most likely here for that treasure.

However, now is not the time to launch a surprise attack so as not to alert the enemy. Besides, if the wrong person is accidentally arrested, not only will the target be exposed, but it will also arouse suspicion from the outside world and distrust of the Kong family.

To this end, he not only deployed many means, but also personally sat in a loft not far from Wanglu Cave Mansion. As long as the other party made the slightest move, it would be time to close the net.

At night, the inner and outer palaces are as bright as day with the blessing of the formation.

In the cave where Wang Lu was, he suddenly stood up from meditating. With a wave of his hand, a magical earth escape talisman was activated, and a yellow halo of light surrounded him, but the ground where he was was like frozen ice that had been frozen for thousands of years, unbreakable and helpless. It seems that the only option is to take it by force.

He thought for a moment, shook his head and did not move. It was not until dawn that he stretched out of the cave and walked slowly towards the "treasure hall" of the outer mansion.

"As expected, your reaction is really fast."

With a sneer, the moment he walked out, extremely weak formation fluctuations appeared outside the cave.

In the past, he wouldn't have been able to detect it at all, but now, even the slightest clues couldn't fool his Xue Tong.

Another thing that is very strange is that after practicing the Black Gang, his whole person became very different from before. Regardless of the body's perception of the outside world, the sensitivity of the spiritual sense, the induction of the soul, and all the senses, it suddenly increased linearly. I have a deeper view and understanding of people, objects and things.

I originally planned to try to get the treasure last night, but stopped immediately when the Divine Earth Escape Talisman failed.

Just as he thought, Kong Xin has been exposed.

However, the other party did not find this treasure, and the Kong family in Nancheng did not make any big splash, nor did they inform the family and the other two families that they wanted to keep the treasure for themselves.

Otherwise, with the strength of our family, we would have found it long ago.

This also confirms the authenticity of the treasure from the side, and also shows how precious it is.

In this case, I will stand still and play the game of "catching a cat" with you. When your patience is exhausted, I will strike with thunder and pull out the tiger's teeth.

Ha, it counts as collecting some interest for Kong Xin first.

He didn't just try to be patient with the other party without doing anything, a plan was quietly formed.

When he came to the treasure hall, Wang Lu looked around east and west. It was almost sunset before he bought a few thousand-year-old spiritual materials.

On the second day, the third day, and for more than twenty consecutive days, it was like this, and more than a hundred more precious treasures were purchased one after another.

In the next half month, his cave was opened again, and as before, he bought dozens more spiritual objects.

This was repeated four or five times, which made Kong Hu frown. What was the purpose of this person? What exactly were these spiritual materials bought used for? Alchemy, not formation, unlike weapon refining, impossible, talisman making. , it’s even more impossible, the other ones are also wrong...

This made him confused and thoughtful.

It had been more than half a year, and except for shopping and a short period of retreat, everything was as usual, and there was nothing strange at all that he expected.

What Wang Lu did was just like other monks, it was too normal, but it made him feel slightly uneasy.

It was as if the other party had done this deliberately, reflecting his every move directly into his eyes, and couldn't find any loopholes. The whole thing had a strange smell.

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation.

However, he could only endure it. The other party did not make a wrong step. For what reason should he be questioned or detained?

He felt extremely uncomfortable as if he had eaten a cockroach.

Kong Hu had never encountered such an opponent before. He knew that the opponent was here to get the treasure, but could not find any flaws. He could only watch him idle and swaggering through the market every day.

It was so frustrating for him.

Humph, don't let me take advantage of you, otherwise, your life will be worse than death.

For this reason, he increased the layout and strengthened the defense. Those involved were as if they were facing a formidable enemy. They were loose on the outside and tight on the inside, and were on guard at all times.

Soon, eight months passed by in a flash. Wang Lu's cave had not been opened for three months. Everyone's heart was tense and they were monitoring day and night, for fear that Wang Lu might accidentally take advantage of it. .

On this day, Kong Hu, whose face was as gloomy as if he was about to drip water, walked directly to the Wanglu Cave Mansion. The surveillance person hurriedly showed up, full of respect. Seeing the terrifying look of Kong Hu's extremely suppressed anger, he remained silent.

Kong Hu said nothing and punched the cave. The stone door was torn into pieces. To their surprise, there was no one inside. Wang Lu was like a magic trick, and the building was empty.

This incredible scene shocked everyone on the spot.

You must know that they are constantly watching without any slack. Under the protection of the outer formation, it is absolutely impossible to escape or break out of the wall from other directions. Once they do, they will immediately activate the formation.

Could it be that this man was a ghost so he could slip away silently?

"Hey, what is that?"

A sharp-eyed master in the early stage of Nascent Soul suddenly saw a jade slip left on the stone table and shouted loudly.

Kong Hu had already noticed it when he broke the stone door, but he just didn't move.

He was actually extremely shocked. After seeing the empty cave, his suppressed anger gradually subsided, and he was thinking about what went wrong.

After thinking about it, maybe the only mistake was not attacking him in a group and taking him down at the first time.

Now not only are the people running away, but the extremely important treasure that they couldn't find anywhere has also been taken away inexplicably.

It’s true that thieves never make mistakes and it’s impossible to guard against them.

It would be interesting to play against such a person.

As he opened his hands, the jade slip came into his hand and he immediately put it into the storage bag. Kong Hu left without saying a word, leaving everyone at a loss and dumbfounded.
