Chapter 287 What did the other party learn while under control?
"Also, please provide the research data on the Seven Star Tombs from the Tianyan Association."
"This information is crucial to stopping the Heavenly Gu Sect Master."
Lin Tianyan agreed without hesitation: "No problem, I'll arrange for someone to prepare the materials right away."
"And dispatched his most elite disciples to assist Mr. Jiang in heading to the Illusion Forest."
After Jiang Mo thanked him, he asked, "President Lin, do you remember what the Heavenly Gu Sect Master saw through you while you were under his control?"
Lin Tianyan tried hard to recall, but shook his head: "My memory is very confused; I only know that I paid close attention to the Seven Star Tomb and the timing of the Seven Star Alignment."
"It seems the alignment of the seven planets will occur earlier than we expected, possibly within the next two months."
Jiang Mo's eyes gleamed: "Two months? Then we must hurry."
"Once the seven stars align, the seal on the Seven Star Tomb will weaken."
"The Heavenly Gu Sect Master will likely take this opportunity to break the seal and return to the mortal realm."
Lin Tianyan nodded: "Mr. Jiang is right. Time is of the essence, and we must plan ahead."
The "Heavenly Eye Society" will immediately activate the "Eye of Prophecy" to attempt to predict the exact time of the seven-star alignment, assisting Mr. Jiang in making preparations.
After expressing his gratitude, Jiang Mo left the Star Palace with Feng Baobao and the other two girls, preparing to head to the Illusion Forest to find the "Golden Cicada Envoy".
However, just as they stepped out of the observatory's gate...
Jiang Mo suddenly stopped, a hint of alertness flashing in his golden eyes.
"What's wrong?" Feng Baobao asked with concern.
Jiang Mo whispered, "Someone is following us."
He continued walking as if nothing had happened, while secretly gathering a wisp of golden light in his palm.
"The Golden Gu's divine power tracks and seeks its trail!"
A tiny golden flying insect flew out from his palm.
It flew away silently, tracking the mysterious stalker.
Soon, the golden flying insect brought back the message, and Jiang Mo's expression immediately became extremely solemn.
"What's going on?" Wei Duoduo asked nervously upon seeing this.
A cold glint flashed in Jiang Mo's golden eyes: "The one following us is a mysterious figure dressed in a black robe with seven-star markings around his eyes."
"Based on the Golden Gu Divine Might's perception, this person possesses extremely powerful Gu energy fluctuations, and is very likely a master of the Heavenly Gu Sect!"
"Not good!" Chen Duo's expression changed drastically. "Could it be that the Heavenly Gu Sect Master has already sent people to deal with us?"
Jiang Mo shook his head slightly: "They don't seem to be here to fight; they seem more like they're here to monitor our actions."
"This means that the Heavenly Gu Sect Master already knows we've discovered the secrets of the Seven Star Tomb and is closely monitoring our every move."
Feng Baobao asked worriedly, "What should we do next? Should we notify the company?"
Jiang Mo pondered for a moment, a glint of light flashing in his golden eyes: "No, we'll proceed to the Illusionary Forest as planned to find the 'Golden Cicada Envoy'."
"However, we must be careful; the people from the Heavenly Gu Sect will definitely be following us."
"If they dare to make a move, then I'll see just how strong the experts from the Heavenly Gu Sect really are!"
As he spoke, Jiang Mo's eyes shone brightly with golden light, and his whole being exuded a powerful aura, as if he were a god descending to earth!
"The Heavenly Gu Sect Master wants to know my background, doesn't he? Then I'll show them the true power of the Gu God's successor!"
After leaving the observatory, Jiang Mo and his group did not immediately head to the Illusion Forest.
Instead, he returned to the company headquarters and reported his findings at the Tianyan Club to General Manager Zhao.
Inside the meeting room, after listening to Jiang Mo's account, General Manager Zhao's expression turned grave.
"The Heavenly Eye Society has been controlled by the Heavenly Gu Sect Master for so long; no wonder their actions have become increasingly strange in recent years."
"Fortunately, Mr. Jiang discovered and purified them in time; otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable."
Jiang Mo nodded: "Lin Tianyan has regained his senses, and the Tianyan Society has expressed its willingness to cooperate with us to fight against the Heavenly Gu Sect Master."
"However, I suspect the Heavenly Gu Sect Master anticipated this, which is why he sent people to monitor our actions."
Mr. Zhao raised an eyebrow: "You mean, someone from the Heavenly Gu Sect has infiltrated our company?"
Jiang Mo shook his head: "Not yet, but they've been monitoring my movements."
"On my way to the company, I noticed at least three different people following me; they were all disciples of the Heavenly Gu Sect."
"It seems the Heavenly Gu Sect Master is paying close attention to my every move."
After a moment's thought, General Manager Zhao asked, "Should the plans regarding the Illusionary Forest and the Golden Cicada Envoy be adjusted?"
Jiang Mo's eyes flashed with golden light: "No need to adjust. We can just have the Heavenly Gu Sect people follow us and lure them into a trap."
"I'm confident I can set traps in the Illusionary Forest to capture these trackers and learn more about the Heavenly Gu Sect's secrets from them."
General Manager Zhao nodded: "Since Mr. Jiang is so confident, the company will certainly give him its full support."
"I've already had someone compile all the information about the Hallucination Forest, and I'll give it to you later."
"In addition, the special forces are also ready and can cooperate with the operation at any time."
After expressing his gratitude, Jiang Mo began to carefully study the information about the Hallucination Forest provided by the company.
According to records, the Hallucination Forest is located deep in the Qinling Mountains. It is a mysterious bamboo forest covering an area of about ten square kilometers.
The most distinctive feature of this bamboo forest is that it can produce various auditory hallucinations, confusing those who enter, making them lose their sense of direction, and ultimately causing them to get lost in the forest.
Over the years, hundreds of people have disappeared in the Hallucination Forest, with none surviving.
The company has sent special forces teams to investigate multiple times, but all attempts have failed.
The only clue is that someone once saw a small golden pavilion in the middle of the bamboo forest, and there seemed to be a humanoid creature chanting inside.
But before he could get close, he was knocked unconscious by a strong auditory hallucination. When he woke up, he had already been taken out of the bamboo forest.
&34;金色的小亭，吟唱的人形生物...&34;姜墨若有所思，&34;应该就是&39;金蝉使&39;了。&34;
"It seems to differ from other carriers of dark bloodlines; it doesn't actively harm intruders, but rather sends them out of the bamboo forest."
This perhaps confirms what Lin Tianyan said: the Golden Cicada Envoy does indeed possess independent consciousness and is not entirely controlled by the Heavenly Gu Sect Master.
Feng Baobao asked worriedly, "Will the auditory hallucinations in the Hallucination Forest affect us?"
"If even the special forces can't hold them off, how can we?"
Jiang Mo smiled confidently: "Don't worry, I was prepared."
He took out four small golden beads from his pocket and handed one to each of the three girls, including Feng Baobao.
"This is a 'Hearing-Avoiding Bead' that I refined using the divine power of the Golden Gu. It can block the auditory hallucinations of the Illusionary Hearing Forest."
"Put it in your ear, and you can hear real sounds clearly, without being disturbed by hallucinations."
The three women took the bead, amazed by its exquisite craftsmanship and powerful energy fluctuations.
"Jiang Mo, when did you refine this?" Chen Duo asked curiously.
Jiang Mo smiled slightly: "On the plane back to the company, while everyone was resting..."
"I had a premonition that the Hallucination Forest would be a crucial turning point, so I made preparations in advance."
Wei Duoduo exclaimed in admiration: "No wonder he's the reincarnation of the Gu God! Such foresight and preparation are simply beyond the capabilities of ordinary people."
After studying the materials, Jiang Mo and his group decided to set off for the Illusion Forest in the early hours of the next day.
