At the same time, in the headquarters of the Rainstorm Mercenary Group, several experts were holding an emergency meeting.
The sudden movements of the rookie mercenary group in the west of the city made them extremely nervous.
A man seemed to be extremely disdainful of this tense atmosphere. He said, "There's no news from the Demon Plain. I think the rookie mercenary group's matter in the west of the city is just a ploy to confuse us and confuse us. If Young Emperor Hao Lian really broke through to Emperor Wu, they wouldn't need to do this, they could just directly attack. "
"Wu Wei is right, but we still have to guard against them. Can the incident in the west of the city be seen as a signal? Before this, no matter how much we push our luck, the rookie mercenary group could only passively defend, and constantly reduce their range of activities. But ever since Hai Lin's merchant group returned to the city, they suddenly became arrogant, and killed many of our group's experts. Ye Xin's whereabouts are unknown, and Zhao Yu was captured. Now they want to hold a hero assembly, it seems that they suddenly have a lot of confidence! "
An old man said in a deep voice, his face flashed with a dim light, and his eyes were slightly cloudy. He swept across everyone's faces, and said: "If it is a diversion, then it will be fine, it will not take long to see through. I am afraid that they have really found a trump card to fight against us without Young Emperor Hao Lian! "
"Hmph, if there really is. They will not always be cowering! " Another man seemed to disagree with the old man's words, and said: "Unless Hai Lin brought back something this time. But as far as I know, they are already very lucky to be able to return to the Light Song Forest this time. On the Demon Plain, they have been intercepted by the Skeleton people several times. "
Wu Wei revealed a heavy dissatisfaction, and snorted: "Shen Feng and those people, we have sent people to befriend them several times, and together with the rookie mercenary group, they actually did not give us face! After we destroy the rookie mercenary group, the next one will be their turn! "
The old man said: "Do not underestimate Shen Feng, I feel that his degree of danger is even higher than Young Emperor Hao Lian! Moreover, the origin of the Skeleton mercenary group is somewhat mysterious, after so many years of investigation, we still can't find anything! I feel that we need to slightly change our plan, from taking the initiative to provoke to watching! "
Wu Wei said disdainfully, "Zhang Feng, you're too cautious. The leader had already led the three elders to the Fey Plains to track down Young Emperor Hao Lian. The probability of him returning was extremely low, let alone advancing to Emperor Wu. In my opinion, we should take advantage of this opportunity to annihilate the rookie mercenary group in one fell swoop and annex their territory. After that, we will wait for the leader to return, then we will launch an attack on the Skeleton Mercenary Group and unify the Light Song Forest! "
Zhang Feng frowned and shook his head, "Wu Wei, you're too young. If it was that simple, the Soft Song Forest wouldn't have been in chaos for so many years. Caution is the parent of safety. You must not act rashly! "
The other old man also nodded and said, "That's right, I agree with Zhang Feng's opinion. Furthermore, there was a rule in the west of the city that no faction was allowed to send a Martial Venerable or above to enter. In terms of core strength, the rookie mercenary groups have the advantage. "
"Hmph!"
Wu Wei stood up in dissatisfaction and said with hostility, "Since all of you have decided to be cowards, then what's the point of having a meeting now?"
He patted his butt and left the venue, too lazy to pay attention to the crowd.
The rest of the people frowned. It was obvious that they were thinking further. This time, Young Emperor Hao Lian was advancing to Emperor Wu. His sudden disappearance had brought too many variables to the future of the Light Song Forest. Perhaps it was the time for a complete reshuffle. But who would have the last laugh? No one had the confidence and certainty.
… …
Li Yunxiao called for the members of the eighth squad to inquire about the situation of the Fire Dragon's geographical vein.
Very quickly, they found the entrance. Below the treasured gourd building, there was a huge compartment. Inside the compartment was actually a huge formation that was used to gather Positive Yang Qi and continuously transport it to the top.
The squad member Li You explained, "This formation was set up by a formation master hired by Leader Hao Lian with a huge sum of money. The Fire Dragon's geographical vein was also sealed underneath the formation. If the leader wants to go down, I'm afraid it will be very difficult. "
He secretly glanced at Li Yunxiao and muttered in his heart. He did not understand how such a young man could be promoted to a squad leader.
The eight squad leaders of the Rookie Mercenary Group were all Martial Emperor Realm experts. Some of them were even at the peak of the Martial Emperor Realm. They could step into the Martial Honorable Realm at any time. All the brothers in the group were convinced. Now that a Martial King Realm young man had suddenly appeared, many people were secretly gossiping about him.
Moreover, he was also very unhappy to be called over by Li Yunxiao. But Squad Leader Zhou Xiang had ordered that he must obey this squad leader 100%. That was why he reluctantly followed.
Li You continued, "When the formation was set up, Leader Hao Lian personally went down to test its power. He returned empty-handed."
His meaning was clear. Even Leader Hao Lian would have a hard time breaking it. Don't count on him. Just take a look and leave.
Li Yunxiao pretended not to hear him. He only looked at it carefully. It was about a hundred meters wide. The lines were well-defined and looked very grand. The Positive Yang Qi below was continuously being absorbed and condensed into a huge force that rushed up to the ground.
"I told him to learn formations, but he refused. Now I have to pay a lot of money to set up a simple Energy Gathering Formation. What a shame! "
Li You was speechless.
Li Yunxiao stepped into the formation. Immediately, a red light shot toward him. He snorted. A golden light flashed in his hand and he grabbed the red light. Immediately, it disappeared in his hand. Then, he took another step.
"Buzz, buzz!"
Suddenly, there was a buzzing sound in the air. The lines of the entire formation started to light up. Beams of red light shot up and illuminated the entire compartment red.
Suddenly, a white light appeared on Li Yunxiao's body. It was as if he was covered with luminous pearls. The light penetrated through his body and formed a white barrier around his body, blocking the red light.
He made a hand seal. A golden tadpole character flew out and flickered in the sky above the formation. Then, it descended.
As soon as the formation came into contact with the golden tadpole character, the buzzing sound died down. The red light also dissipated by half. Li Yunxiao also retracted the white light around his body. He started to make hand seals to dissolve the formation's power. Under the continuous smashing of the hand seals, the Dazzling Energy Gathering Formation started to dim. The light became weaker and weaker, as if it would be extinguished at any time.
Li You's mouth was wide open. His eyes were bulging.
This Dazzling Energy Gathering Formation not only absorbed Positive Yang Qi, but it also had an extremely strong defense. The members of the eighth squad often came here to test their cultivation when they had nothing to do. They used the formation's power to attack themselves to see how long it could last. As a three-star Martial Ancestor, he could only last for about ten breaths inside.
Now, not only did Li Yunxiao block all the attacks, he also dissolved them one by one. From the looks of it, the formation was about to stop functioning.
"Leader, you can't!"
Li You was covered in cold sweat. He hurriedly stopped him. "This formation is the foundation of the eighth squad! The reason why we are in the west of the city is also because of this formation. If it was broken, it would affect the refining and training of every Arcane Master. The consequences will be unimaginable! "
Li Yunxiao looked at him indifferently and said, "I'm just temporarily undoing it. I'm not destroying it."
Temporarily undoing it … Could he be a formation master? Li You thought to himself. He was still very nervous, afraid that he would cause a disaster.
As Li Yunxiao slammed the last hand seal, the entire formation finally stopped functioning.
Li Yunxiao walked back and forth, frowning. He mumbled to himself, "There's actually a layer of Divine Sense sealed below. This is interesting." He took out the Purple Shadow Green Rope Sword and used it as a stick. He kept hitting the ground.
"Brat, you're too disrespectful!"
Roars came from the Genryu. Demonic Qi was constantly emitted from the body of the sword. There was also the flickering of a dragon, showing its extreme dissatisfaction.
"Ah!"
Li You, who was at the side, let out a startled cry. His eyes were filled with terror as he stared at the treasured sword in Li Yunxiao's hand. The demonic energy contained within the sword caused his heart to tremble. That kind of power that could pierce through his soul caused the color of blood to drain from his face, as he felt waves of terror.
Li Yunxiao smiled. "There's nothing for you to do here. You can go back first. I might have to stay for a while."
Li You rolled and crawled out. He did not want to stay inside for a moment longer. The pressure that the treasured sword gave him was too great. It was as if he would be sliced into pieces if he looked at it.
"This formation has completely sealed off the earth vein. There's not a single entrance left. Looks like I have to dig. "
Li Yunxiao knocked on a few possible spots, but he didn't find any signs. He was a little surprised.
"Hey, hey! Brat, you can't be forgiven! "
The Genryu roared again, as if its dignity had been greatly insulted.
Li Yunxiao actually used the treasured sword as a tool and started to dig the ground. He did not care about the Genryu's roars. Very soon, he dug a big hole. Suddenly, he slapped the ground with his palm. A big piece of soil collapsed. There was actually a tunnel underneath! A large amount of Yang Qi rushed out from the tunnel. It made people feel dry and hot.
He directly jumped into the tunnel and started to explore.
The tunnel was very rough. The four walls were dry. It was obvious that it had been abandoned for a very long time. However, the Yang Qi was very abundant. It flowed in the tunnel like True Qi flowing in the meridians. Li Yunxiao walked in the direction where the Yang Qi came from. It was very uncomfortable. Because he was only half a person tall, he had to bend his waist and walk slowly.
After the time it took to drink a cup of tea, he finally arrived at a spacious big cave. However, there was a problem. There were actually three forks in the road. Yang Qi gushed out from each fork. It seemed like they were all sources.
"What's going on here?"
Li Yunxiao spread out his Divine Sense. However, it was blocked after only a few meters. He started to look around the small cave. Other than being slightly bigger, it was no different from the tunnel. It was still very rough. Moreover, there were many gravel scattered on the ground.
He casually picked up a piece. With a pinch of his hand, it turned into red powder and scattered. A wave of pure energy spread out.
