The next day, the sky was just beginning to brighten.
More than ten rays of light cut through the sky and landed outside the entrance of the grave. The entrance was dark and gloomy, like a bottomless hole.
"My three friends, let's not waste any more time. Let's go in and set up the matrix, then search carefully." Fiery Dragon Zhenren Zhong Qiuping was a handsome but serious middle-aged man. He wore a red dragon robe and a crown of nine dragons playing with pearls.
The white-bearded, tiger-eyed and lion-like, Hui Tong, the Hundred-Hand Enlightened, was unwilling to pass on the responsibility and was about to rush in first. But at this moment, a purple light flew over from the horizon and landed behind them in the blink of an eye. It was a petite and beautiful female Taoist priest. The purple Daoist robe clung tightly to her body, revealing her beautiful body that undulated up and down.
"My four friends, why did you leave without saying goodbye? I almost couldn't make it in time." Yun Congyue complained slightly and greeted them as if they were old friends.
Hui Tong, who had a bad temper, shouted at Yun Congyue, "Yun Congyue, how did you know we were here? Let me tell you, don't even think about taking advantage of us! "
Yun Congyue covered her mouth and chuckled. "I say, Old Huitong, use your brain and think about it. You can hide your tracks from others, but you can't hide it from me. I'm a Dharma Adept after all! As for now, this grave doesn't belong to your family. Are you going to stop me from going in? At most, I'll wait for you guys to go in, and then I'll go in openly. Do you want to keep blocking the entrance? "She saw that Hui Tong didn't give her face, so she didn't care and started to mock him.
Hui Tong made a mistake and was mocked by Yun Congyue. He was about to make a move with a dark face, but was stopped by Zhong Qiuping. "Friend Yun, if you want to go in, you can go in. But let me warn you, it's very dangerous inside. If something happens to you, don't blame anyone else."
Yun Congyue giggled. "Even if something happens to Congyue, no one from the same sect will come to seek justice, so you four Dao friends can be at ease." It looked like she did not take Zhong Qiuping's threat seriously at all. As a Dharma Adept, even if she could not win, she was confident that she could escape.
Hui Tong snorted coldly and ignored Yun Congyue. He turned around and fled into the cave. The ten or so Fahua Sect Jindan Grandmaster followed closely behind him.
Zhong Qiuping took a deep look at Yun Congyue, then brought Song Renjie and the other twelve Jindan Grandmaster into the grave. Pu Yannian and Miao Yin also brought their respective sects' Jindan Grandmaster into the grave.
Yun Congyue, on the other hand, was unhurried. After a quarter of an hour, he turned into a purple ray of light and entered the abyss. After passing through the gloomy fog, he felt his whole body shake. The black fog in front of him turned into a pale white fog, but the effect of blocking divine sense was even stronger than the black fog.
In the pale white fog, the four Dharma Adepts, with the help of ten or so Jindan Grandmaster, were setting up four complicated and mysterious formations that surrounded the entrance.
Yun Congyue took a look. It was a formation that prevented a person with a specific aura from leaving the grave. When that person was trapped here, it also had the function of long-distance communication and teleportation. He could not help but sigh to himself. The four sects had really put in a lot of effort this time. The materials for this formation were not much worse than the materials used to achieve Dharma.
However, Yun Congyue's expression did not change. He found a small hill at the entrance and sat cross-legged at the top, smiling as he watched the people of the four sects set up the formation.
After a full six hours, the formation was finally completed. Then, Zhong Qiuping and the other three Dharma Adepts used a secret technique and sent a bit of aura into the center of the formation.
"Young Master Duotian, Fang Qi's aura? Hehe. "Yun Congyue laughed as if he was watching a show.
However, after sending in the aura, the four Dharma Adepts did not relax. Instead, they each activated the formation seriously. As the bit of aura in the center of the formation gradually became bright green, there seemed to be an aura in the depths of the white fog that resonated with it. As it breathed in and out, it was as if it had a life of its own.
Yun Congyue was slightly surprised. This formation could actually break through the fog, lock onto auras, and search for traces. The secret technique of the four Dharma Adepts, with the support of the four formations, easily saw through the aura concealing technique of the other party.
"This formation is indeed extraordinary. The only flaw is that it can only search within a ten-thousand-mile radius, and it cannot cross two worlds." Zhong Qiuping nodded in satisfaction at the formation provided by the Seven Mountain Alliance.
Pu Yannian stroked his short beard and said modestly, "You flatter me, Brother Zhong. There is actually another flaw, and that is that the materials used to set up the formation are too precious." He looked like an old tutor from a village. If he did not say so, no one would believe that he was one of the twelve famous Dharma Adepts.
"Since we have already locked onto Fang Qi's aura, let's split up to prevent him from escaping." Hui Tong could not wait to absorb the green aura that he had locked onto into his palm.
Seeing that the formation was effective, the other three Dharma Adepts did not want to delay either. Thus, the strongest Zhong Qiuping and the weakest Miao Yin went together to outflank the Three Trunk Elephant Pit.
Hui Tong and Pu Yannian went through the path that they had explored more than the others. Yun Congyue followed far behind them.
The other ten or so Jindan Grandmaster followed behind their respective Dharma Adepts. They spread out within a radius of a few hundred miles and rushed there to avoid brushing past Fang Qi.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Wen Nixi and Song Renjie reported the situation to Shi Xuan at the same time.
It was not until an hour after the people from the four main sects had left that the lone practitioners who had received the news finally arrived. They searched for Young Master Duotian, Fang Qi, in all directions. No one noticed that a young man with an overbearing aura had mixed in with them and entered the Wild Beast Tomb. He scoffed at the formation that only screened people who left and not those who entered.
…
Three days later.
A giant black elephant raised its head and neighed. From its three thick trunks, it spat out an ice dragon and a water dragon towards the fire dragon that was baring its fangs and claws. At the same time, it also spat out a fire dragon, which clashed with the gentle moon-like sword light in the air.
Around it, there were twenty to thirty different kinds of techniques and lights from spirit weapons that kept hitting its body. However, they were all blocked by its protective techniques. However, these attacks that were like tickles enraged the giant elephant. It stamped its foot, and instantly, a violent earthquake seemed to have occurred within a radius of a hundred miles. The earth and fog shook, and the huge impact caused the Jindan Grandmaster to sway back and forth.
Wen Nixi and Song Renjie were unable to stabilize their bodies as they swayed, and the techniques they shot out were far off. They were secretly anxious. This remote path seemed to be closer, but the endless stream of powerful spirits had already greatly slowed their movements. Now, there was even a three-nosed elephant spirit at the peak of the Dharma stage. They did not know if the Fahua Sect and the Seven Mountain Alliance, who had taken the main path and were much further away, had already surrounded Fang Qi.
Thinking about the spirit weapons, treasures, materials, spirit herbs, and elixirs that were about to fall into the hands of the Fahua Sect and the Seven Mountain Alliance, the practitioners of the Huo Mu Clan and the Water Moon Sect were all extremely anxious. They wanted to kill this three-nosed elephant spirit immediately.
However, the peak of the Dharma stage was not easy to deal with. It could also absorb the surrounding Yin Qi to nourish itself. Even with Zhong Qiuping and Miao Yin's full strength, it took them a full two hours to kill it and collect the spirit pearl that was condensed from the Yin Qi at its core.
"We are not far from the aura. We will arrive in another two hours." Zhong Qiuping looked at the aura in her hand and frowned.
Miao Yin said in a low voice, "There are not many powerful spirits on that main path. Hui Tong and Pu Yannian should be here soon, right? We cannot delay any longer. "
These words made all the Jindan Grandmaster nod their heads. Thus, they all used their techniques and sped up towards the aura.
…
This was a vast valley. In the thick white fog, there were all kinds of flowers and spirit herbs. There was even a trickle of warm water that flowed past.
However, on both sides of the valley, there was dark purple soil of extreme Yin. It gave off an eerie aura, and only a few kinds of Yin spirit herbs could grow on it.
"This is actually a place where extreme Yin produces extreme Yang!" Miao Yin said to Zhong Qiuping in surprise.
Zhong Qiuping did not dare to be careless either. With a serious expression, he said, "Then we have to check carefully. This place is the best place to set up a formation. We cannot let an eighty-year-old mother kill a three-year-old child and fail miserably."
"Fellow Zhong is right. Fellow Hui Tong and I have just checked the surroundings and did not find any traces of a formation." Pu Yannian's voice came from the white fog behind them.
The practitioners of the Huo Mu Clan and the Water Moon Sect immediately turned their heads and saw that the people of the Fahua Sect and the Seven Mountain Alliance had all passed through the white fog and were coming from behind. It did not look like they had already succeeded. Thus, they secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
"Fellow Pu and Fellow Hui Tong are here so early?" Miao Yin asked.
Pu Yannian chuckled. "Not that early. It was only a quarter of an hour. I thought that you two would take the small path earlier. I did not expect that we would be here first. "
Miao Yin shook her head and smiled bitterly. "There were many powerful spirits on the small path. It took us too long."
"Alright, since there are no formations, let's go into the valley." Hui Tong saw that the target was in sight and did not want to waste any more time talking to them.
Thus, under Hui Tong's lead, the practitioners of the four sects carefully went into the depths of the valley. From time to time, they would stop to check if there were any formations.
The journey was smooth. When the four Dharma Adepts led the dozens of Golden Core Grandmasters to the depths of the valley, they suddenly felt that it was a vast green field. In the middle, there was a small hill that was filled with Yin Qi and turned into spring water.
"Fellow Daoists, you are late. Sorry for making I wait for a long time." A clear voice came from the top of the hill.
Only then did the four Dharma Adepts realize that there was an unfamiliar young practitioner sitting cross-legged on the top of the hill. He was wearing a Taichi robe and a Seven Star Crown on his head. He was leisurely playing with the storage bag in his hands.
The aura that they had locked onto was that storage bag! Most importantly, when they had scanned the area with their divine senses, they had not discovered this young practitioner!
Strange, suspicious, and bad thoughts rose in the souls of the Dharma Adepts at the same time. On the other hand, the dozens of Jindan Grandmaster did not have much fear. Although that young practitioner looked mysterious and powerful, there were four Dharma Adepts on their side!
