The wind and snow continued.
The elders did not speak.
They were communicating with their eyes.
Perhaps it was their unique tacit understanding.
Chen Xi did not understand, nor did he bother to guess.
He stood in the square with his sword in hand, quietly waiting for their reply.
More and more people gathered around, but no one dared to approach the square.
Zhao Xinghuai and Lee Ho-an had already retreated to the small house where they were drinking.
The cold wind whistled past, and the square was a scene of desolation.
After about two minutes, the elder with the dragon-headed cane finally turned his head and glanced at Chen Xi.
But then, he shifted his gaze away.
The expression on his face was very complicated, as if he was still struggling with something.
In fact, on the day when Chen Xi took away Qin Ruoying, they had already discussed it.
At that time, they chose to compromise.
But what they did not expect was that Chen Xi would actually come back and want to take back Xuan Nu's ghost …
Everyone handed the right to make the decision to him, which put a lot of pressure on him.
After looking at the elders again, seeing that they all nodded at him, the elder frowned and finally made the final decision.
"We agree to your request."
Hearing this, Chen Xi could not help but nod, very satisfied with his answer.
The elder slowly walked down the stairs with the dragon-headed cane, then went straight to the giant bronze cauldron.
"The ghosts of Xuan Nu have been sealed in this giant cauldron for generations, I will now release them …"
After explaining to Chen Xi, the elder suddenly jumped up and inserted the dragon-headed cane in his hand into the giant bronze cauldron.
Ka.
The sound of metal colliding was suddenly heard.
Immediately after, a golden light suddenly emerged from the giant bronze cauldron.
The golden light was as small as the light from a laser pointer at first.
But in the blink of an eye, the light had become as thick as a bucket.
The golden light burst into the sky.
A crack was instantly torn in the gloomy sky.
The clouds in the sky churned.
As if affected by something, with the golden light as the center, a huge cloud vortex gradually condensed in the clouds.
What was even stranger was that the cloud vortex was rotating at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The old man standing beside the giant cauldron became excited when he saw the scene in front of him.
Suddenly.
A faint fluorescent golden barrier appeared above the village, instantly enveloping the entire valley.
Then, a strong vibration came from the ground, as if there was an earthquake.
Immediately afterward, a golden light pillar as thick as a bucket rose from the four corners of the valley.
These five pillars of light seemed to be the pillars of the barrier.
When the light pillars rose from the four corners, the barrier in the sky became even more dazzling.
The barrier was like a golden tortoise shell, encircling the valley where the village was located.
The wind and snow that filled the sky suddenly stopped.
The sun broke through the clouds.
Almost instantly, everyone felt their eyes light up, and their vision widened a lot.
"Formation array?"
Seeing this, Chen Xi couldn't help but frown.
He still remembered that there was a stone tablet at the entrance of the village, with the word "Fang Cun" written on it.
So he turned his head to look at the entrance of the village, only to find that the stone tablet was located at the place where the light pillar rose.
He originally thought that this village only had a simple concealment formation, but after it was activated, Chen Xi found that this formation array was no small matter.
There were only a few functions of the formation array: trapping, killing, illusory, and some non-offensive auxiliary formations, such as breath concealment and spirit gathering.
This formation array was arranged according to the terrain of the Dragon Vein, and could be said to be very expensive.
After the five light pillars rose, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the entire formation suddenly swept over like a tide, wave after wave.
Chen Xi hadn't felt this surging spiritual energy of heaven and earth for a long time.
But it was a little strange.
With the conditions of the earth, even if it was a Spirit Seizing Formation set up by a Dongxu Stage cultivator, it was impossible to set off such a strong spiritual energy tide in such a short time.
Chen Xi thought for a while.
Then he suddenly understood …
The formation in front of him was not a Spirit Seizing Formation, but a composite formation with both spirit gathering and spirit binding functions at the same time!
The formation used the valley as the base, the four stone tablets in the four directions as the formation door, the giant bronze cauldron in the center of the square as the formation eye, and the valley terrain as the formation pattern. After the formation was set up, it would continuously seize the spiritual energy of heaven and earth from the Qinling Mountains, and then bind the spiritual energy within the formation.
To seize such a large amount of spiritual energy of heaven and earth from the earth, this formation array was set up at least five hundred years ago.
The Spirit Binding Formation was a one-time use formation. After it was activated, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth accumulated over the years would burst out at once.
In the Heavenly Jade World, cultivators above the Golden Core Stage would usually set up a Spirit Binding Formation in their cave abodes, in case of emergency.
This was like rain from the sky!
So, Chen Xi hurriedly sat cross-legged on the ground, taking advantage of the surging spiritual energy tide, and began to cultivate crazily.
The opportunity couldn't be missed, so Chen Xi didn't want to investigate why the old man suddenly activated this one-time auxiliary formation array.
However, not long after he sat down cross-legged.
The four light pillars in the north, south, east, and west suddenly turned into rainbows, like a rainbow bridge, and suddenly connected with the main light pillar above the giant bronze cauldron.
The five light pillars suddenly gathered together, and the main light pillar immediately became very thick.
Just by looking at its diameter, it was almost the same as the giant bronze cauldron.
At this moment, the old man standing below the giant cauldron's face suddenly changed, and a burst of ecstasy appeared on his face.
Then, he suddenly knelt on the ground and shouted respectfully, "Welcome, Divine General!"
Before he finished speaking, a figure walked out of the light pillar.
It was a burly man who was almost two meters tall. His upper body was bare, revealing his strong muscles.
The man called Divine General was floating in mid-air.
After slowly scanning the surroundings, he slowly opened his mouth and said, "Heaven's Opening Line, you only have the time of an incense stick. Speak."
The old man knelt on the ground and looked up at the Divine General in the sky very sincerely.
It seemed that he was so excited that his lips moved for a long time, but he didn't say a word.
The Elder Ancestor's words were true …
At this moment, Chen Xi suddenly opened his eyes.
He looked at the man flying in the sky, then looked at the old man kneeling on the ground.
Then, Chen Xi's lips suddenly curled into a faint sneer.
"I thought you were really going to return Xuan Nu's spirit to me …"
"I didn't expect that you just wanted to ask for help …"
"Forget it, since you don't want to give it to me, I'll find it myself."
As he said that, he slowly stood up from the ground.
After hearing Chen Xi's words, the Divine General lowered his head and noticed him.
One was in the sky.
One was on the ground.
