The current situation did seem a bit ridiculous. When the fog had just appeared, the cultivators of the Earth Camp in the city had been paying attention to it.
A crescent moon hung high in the sky, and the green fog became thicker and thicker, looking very strange.
Especially when the Mirror-Moon Heaven disciple appeared later and said that the crescent moon was the soul-bound talisman of Yan Xuan, who should have been injured, it made everyone more vigilant.
— No matter how down and out Yan Xuan was after being injured, his reputation as a genius was real. He gradually rose to fame from sparring with his peers, and became the undisputed number one among the young cultivators in the three thousand worlds.
But now, looking at the green fog that was blocked outside the city by the barrier light screen.
Looking at the fog that was lying softly on the light screen as if it was acting coquettishly, many people couldn't help but laugh.
Even the tense atmosphere from before seemed to have lightened a bit.
Some Earth Camp cultivators even looked at Meng Qi, who was standing in the same place after the fog flew away, and even smiled at her, waving their hands as a greeting.
Although it was a great battle of Ten Extremes Mountain, for everyone, at least now, there was no cruel and heartless feeling of a life and death battle.
Meng Qi's expression didn't change, and she focused on the fog.
Her Five Spirit Cauldron was inside, and a soul-bound talisman could communicate with its master's mind. With her current medical skills, although she couldn't precisely control every bit of poison that was sent into the fog.
But through the Five Spirit Cauldron, she could still sense the minute changes in the defensive formation.
"You can draw formations on the ground." Yun Qingyan suddenly said, "You can only use formations in the fog."

"Hm?" Meng Qi stilled, and suddenly reacted. "You mean …"
"Try it." Yun Qingyan nodded at her.
"Okay." Meng Qi didn't hesitate anymore.
She took a deep breath, and her consciousness was withdrawn. She and the Five Spirit Cauldron were inextricably linked, and a soul-bound talisman would naturally listen to its master's orders, but she never thought that it could be done like this.
Now that Meng Qi's Divine Sense was restrained, she simply closed her eyes and the Five Spirit Cauldron seemed to be right in front of her.
She could feel all the movements of the Five Spirit Cauldron and knew the existence of the thick fog.
Even the poison that she had sent into the thick fog earlier appeared incomparably clear.
"Buzz", Meng Qi's Five Spirit Cauldron suddenly moved.
The dark green fog was torn apart, and wherever the Five Spirit Cauldron passed, it left behind a trail.
Meng Qi moved so fast that Qin Xiumo and Yan Xuan, who were standing beside her, could only watch as the thick fog seemed to be cut apart by a complete array in an instant.
The pattern looked a little strange, but it was so strict and beautiful.
"What are they doing?"
"I don't know."
"It feels a little weird."
"Ha … Hahaha, is it because you can't break in, so you're just drawing for fun?" Someone said half-jokingly.
However, no one laughed at his joke. There was not even a single unnecessary laughter on the city wall.
Instead, the moment that person's voice fell, it became incomparably quiet.
In everyone's eyes, the thick fog that was still lying softly outside the defensive array of the city wall as if it was acting coquettishly had completely changed its appearance at this moment.
The green fog started to burn as if it would turn into a ball of flames at any time and swallow the light screen released by the defensive array.
"So he chose Departing Fire …" Yun Qingyan nodded slightly.
He raised his hand, and seven or eight sparkling and translucent spirit stones that emitted dazzling ling light flew out from his palm and flew towards the array.
"Earth Spirit Stones!!!"
This time, the cultivators inside and outside the city exclaimed in unison, especially the Earth Spirit Stones.
Especially those Earth Barracks xiuzhe, it wasn't like they didn't notice the white robed male standing beside Meng Qi.
However, everyone's attention was attracted by Ling Ji who suddenly appeared in Ten Extremes Mountain, and Yan Xuan who seemed to have become stronger again.
Secondly, the cultivators here had never truly seen Yun Qingyan. They simply did not expect that other than Ling Ji, the Earth Spirit Stones could actually find such a powerful helper.
Although Yun Qingyan did not directly attack them, it was still earth spirit stones!
If it was Xuan Spirit Stones, the Earth Barracks xiuzhe wouldn't be so surprised. It wasn't like they couldn't take it out. Before coming to the Ten Extremes Mountain, the sect had prepared some Xuan Spirit Stones for everyone to bring with them in case of emergency.
However, this was earth spirit stones!
The value of one earth spirit stone, even if the cultivators who could reach here were almost all from the ten great sects, they did not know how to measure it.
Because in the sect, everyone usually used Xuan Spirit Stones as the standard to measure the value of a treasure or treasure. It was enough to show that the item was incomparably precious.
Occasionally, there would be people who heard the elders in the sect mention how many earth spirit stones an item would be sold for in the Sky Beyond Heaven's Sky Auction House.
However, that was still a little far from them. Furthermore, an item with such a price would definitely be helpful to the entire sect's inheritance.
Now …
On the city wall, the Earth Spirit Stones cultivators could only stare blankly at this scene, their emotions fluctuating. In the blink of an eye, those earth spirit stones had already flown above the thick fog, directly scattering and embedding themselves into the thick fog.
They actually forgot that they were on the city's defense side. What they should do now was to immediately stop Meng Qi and the others' actions.
Some people even faintly anticipated in the depths of their hearts, wanting to see how this item that required earth spirit stones would look like.
Actually, it was not just them. Even Ling Ji, Yan Xuan, and the others outside the city wall were somewhat shocked.
Especially Ling Ji, he turned back and glanced at Yun Qingyan.
Unlike the Earth Spirit Stones cultivators who were further away, he completely heard the conversation between Meng Qi and Yun Qingyan.
This guy was really teaching Meng Qi.
Ling Ji quickly came to a conclusion. Furthermore, their actions seemed to be very natural. One taught, one learned. The trust and tacit understanding between them made others unable to interfere at all.
Ling Ji thought silently. Meng Qi's trust in this Yun Qingyan was definitely above his trust in himself.
He looked strangely at Yun Qingyan and then looked at the ball of thick fog.
Earth spirit stones … … it wasn't that he couldn't take them out. As a sword xiu elder who had been famous for a long time, and the sect leader of Broken Space Sect, he had earth spirit stones.
But to casually throw out seven or eight Earth Spirit Stones like this, even he would hesitate.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye.
Just as everyone was dazed, outside the light screen of the defensive formation on the city wall, the ball of thick fog boiled even more violently.
It was no longer a ball of thick fog now. After those earth spirit stones were embedded, the ling energy that gushed out of the stones seemed to cause the entire thick fog to boil.
Green flames shot into the sky, burning fiercely. The tongues of fire swept towards the light screen formed by the defensive formation.
"Quick!" On the city wall, the Earth Spirit Stones cultivators instantly recovered. "Quick, stop her!"
In an instant, four or five lifebond longswords whistled as they flew towards that direction.
At the same time, three or four techniques landed behind that thick fog, wanting to stop it.
"Ha — —" Yun Qingyan laughed softly. "It's too late."
His tone was certain, his gaze bright. He stood calmly beside Meng Qi and looked at the Earth Spirit Stones cultivators on the city wall.
Clearly, the Earth Spirit Stones cultivators were on the city wall, and he was the one below the city wall.
But when those cultivators met Yun Qingyan's gaze, they actually felt as though they were being looked down upon by this man.
"Ah — —" Inside the city, near the southern city wall, a few muffled groans mixed with screams suddenly sounded.
Following those muffled groans, the light screen of the formation that was originally protecting everyone outside the city wall slowly dimmed.
"What happened?"
"What happened?"
"What happened?"
"This is … …"
… …
The Earth Spirit Stones cultivators quickly realized that something was wrong.
At this time, a cultivator suddenly leaped onto the city wall and shouted, "Where are the medical cultivators? They're poisoned. Come over, three medical cultivators! "
This person had stayed beside the defensive formation on the city wall to protect the cultivators that were continuously injecting ling energy into the defensive formation.
"What happened?" Someone immediately asked.
"I don't know, they were suddenly poisoned. Where are the medical cultivators? Come with me to see them first. "
The medical cultivators on the city wall immediately followed that cultivator towards the formation.
The remaining cultivators were slightly shocked and uncertain. They looked at each other, and then looked at Meng Qi outside the city.
In the end, everyone's gaze landed on that ball of green fog.
Now that the defensive formation was no longer obstructing them, the entire city wall was exposed in front of Meng Qi and the others.
The Earth Spirit Stones cultivators had originally been curious as to how their companions were poisoned.
At this time, when they looked at Ling Ji and the others outside the city, their expressions suddenly changed — —
"Not good!"
Someone suddenly exclaimed. They had been too careless. They shouldn't have let the majority of their attention be drawn by a ball of strange green fog!
Right now, the ones outside the city were Ling Ji, Yan Xuan … … even Qin Xiumo was an outstanding figure among his peers.
They weren't people they could easily deal with.
They had been too careless! Because there was the help of the defensive formation, this little city was easy to defend and hard to attack, and they had more than ten times the number of people on their side.
From the beginning, they had been certain that their side would win. Many of the xiuzhe on the city wall, even though they were standing here to defend the city, had never thought that the other side would have a way to attack the city.
Even though Ling Ji had the upper hand and sent away two of them with one move. But after the defensive formation was activated, even he couldn't do anything, so everyone felt it wasn't a big deal.
But now, the defensive formation was suddenly gone.
Outside the city, there were Ling Ji, Yan Xuan, and Qin Xiumo who were watching covetously.
There was also a white-clothed male who, other than throwing out a few earth ling stones, hadn't made a move.
Some of the Earth Spirit Stone Camp xiuzhe who reacted quickly waved their hands. Their soul-tethered talismans or longswords instantly floated beside them.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh." The sounds didn't stop. They might not be as good as Yan Xuan and the others, but they were outstanding among their peers, and their reactions were extremely fast.
— — Since the defensive formation was gone, they could still defend the city!
"Whoosh — —" That ball of green mist still hadn't disappeared.
Without the defensive formation, the green flames instantly became even more rampant, and swept towards the xiuzhe on the city wall.
With the help of those earth ling stones, Meng Qi raised her hand. Thick mist flew out of her five ling cauldron, and floated side by side with the crescent moon above the thick mist.
Inside the five ling cauldron, a few green ling herbs turned into medicinal liquid and quickly boiled.
The mist slowly rose from inside, and connected with the green flames below. Faintly, it seemed to have the presence of covering the sky and the sun.
Yan Xuan turned his head to look at Meng Qi. He raised his hand, and a gust of wind blew past, causing his sleeves to flutter.
That crescent moon suddenly flashed a few times, disappeared, and then reappeared.
If one hadn't been looking at the crescent moon, they wouldn't have noticed the small changes of the crescent moon.
After the third flash, the crescent moon was even brighter than before. The green mist that covered the sky had already covered the crescent moon, but the silver moonlight poured down at this time, and seemed to put a veil over the green mist.
At the same time, Ling Ji's lips curled slightly. The tip of her lifebond longsword suddenly tilted, and turned into a bolt of lightning as she charged into the city.
Qin Xiumo's gaze became even deeper. His finger tapped lightly, and a patch of dark green light rippled between his fingers that wrapped around his longsword.
That patch of green light, with his lifebond longsword as the center, suddenly spread out and turned into a net.
The green net floated above the longsword, and looked slightly eerie. This was a characteristic of the Cloud Treading Peak. They cultivated both sword and art. When the longsword moved, it would be accompanied by spells.
Qin Xiumo's finger flicked, and the longsword suddenly charged towards the city wall.
The xiuzhe on the city wall had originally been very sure that Meng Qi and the others were few in number, and could not attack.
In the blink of an eye, the advantage seemed to have reversed.
The green flame was still burning furiously above the city wall, the five ling cauldron hanging high above.
Meng Qi's expression looked very serious. The lifebond talisman was connected to her mind. She could clearly feel the direction of each thread of green mist.
The defensive formation on the city wall was activated by the cooperation of four xiuzhe.
At this time, the four people were standing at the four corners of the formation, their expressions grave as ling energy continuously poured into the formation.
On the ground beside them, there were four xiuzhe sitting cross-legged. These were the other four xiuzhe who had used up all their ling energy and were resting.
After the Earth Camp entered the city, they had calculated carefully. Eight xiuzhe of similar cultivation would be enough to support the continuous operation of this defensive formation.
These four had just replaced the previous four. They could also see the hubbub on the city wall from where they were.
However, no one was too worried. No matter how strong the people on the other side were, they had more people. They were all elite disciples of the ten great sects. Even if they could not compare to the top geniuses, they were not far behind.
They had almost twenty times the number of people on the other side, and the difference in strength was not that great. What's more, they were defending the city with the help of so many formations in the city.
Therefore, they believed that as long as there were not too many mistakes, there was basically no problem in defending the city.
The four people's expressions were serious, but their hearts were still calm.
Ling energy continuously poured into the formation. The few people sitting cross-legged on the ground resting were also very calm. They had no intention of going to the city wall to help. They only focused on recovering their ling energy.
Compared to the hubbub on the city wall, the surroundings of the formation near the city wall were so quiet that there was not a trace of nervousness that a great battle had already begun.
"Ugh — —"
Just at this time, a xiuzhe who was pouring ling energy into the formation suddenly groaned.
The four people sitting cross-legged on the ground all looked at him. They saw that the xiuzhe who was also at the perfect level of the Spirit Severing stage suddenly clutched his chest and fell backwards.
"Fellow Daoist." One of the people sitting on the ground quickly jumped up and rushed over to support that person.
It shouldn't be!
He had some doubts in his heart. The eight of them had similar cultivation. These four had just replaced the four of them not long ago. Logically speaking, their ling energy should not be exhausted so quickly.
Although that was what he thought, that person still quickly caught the xiuzhe who fell down with a groan. He prepared to take over that person's place and continue to pour his ling energy into the formation.
"Ugh — —"
Who knew that just at this time, another groan sounded. Another xiuzhe suddenly fell backwards.
Immediately after, without giving anyone time to react, one of the remaining two xiuzhe clutched his chest. The other even screamed out and fell to the ground together.
"Poison!" The xiuzhe who screamed out even fell to the ground with a "bang".
He clutched his chest with one hand and raised the other hand. He pointed at the formation with trembling fingers: "There's poison … …"
"Poison?!" The four xiuzhe who were recovering their ling energy were stunned: "The formation is poisonous?!"
They could not understand what this meant, but they could see that the lips of the four people had turned pitch-black. It was obvious that they were poisoned.
"Let's ask for help first." One of the xiuzhe was also decisive. With a flick of his finger, a small spiritual energy firework flew up.
This was the signal they had agreed on from the beginning. This city was not big. The xiuzhe of the Earth Barracks were scattered all over the city. If a place could not hold on, they would use this kind of spiritual energy firework to send a message.
The four people released the spiritual energy firework as they laid the four poisoned xiuzhe on the ground.
At this time, the battle on the southern city wall was fierce. The few people did not dare to delay and quickly took over the positions of the four people. They planned to also maintain the defensive formation on the city wall.
"Don't!" The person lying on the ground suddenly raised his upper body, "The formation … …"
He panted and repeatedly stopped them: "That formation is poisonous!"
"Ah?" The four people were stunned.
They did not need to guess what was going on. The four people's ling energy was not enough to begin with. The moment they sent their ling energy into the formation, an extremely cold presence suddenly rushed along their meridians to their spiritual seas.
That presence came from the formation and instantly froze their spiritual seas.
"Ah — —" Before the voice of doubt disappeared, it turned into a scream.
The four people suddenly fell backwards. Like the previous four xiuzhe, they fell to the ground.
Their lips also turned black. One of them was a medical xiu. He barely managed to raise his upper body. Trembling, he reached towards his storage brocade pouch, wanting to take out a dan that could cure the poison.
At the same time, on the southern city wall, Ling Ji and Qin Xiumo's two long swords had already attacked.
The xiuzhe of the Earth Barracks on the city wall were a little nervous, but they were not afraid as a whole.
No matter how powerful Ling Ji and Qin Xiumo's long swords were, they were still just FenShen xiuzhe.
It had to be known that the defensive formation on the city wall was activated by four FenShen xiuzhe. It was enough to block the attacks of two people.
In comparison, it was the flame-like green mist under the moonlight of the crescent moon that made them a little nervous.
The crescent moon was Yan Xuan.
Everyone had seen the green mist released by the earth spirit stone with their own eyes.
They looked nervously at Meng Qi, and then at Yun Qingyan.
The sword xiu's lifebond long swords were already floating beside them. The tips of the swords were pointed at Meng Qi, ready to attack at any time.
The magic xiu's lifebond talismans were already in action. They flickered with a faint light, as though in the next moment, there would be earth-shattering spells attacking Meng Qi's group.
They hadn't attacked yet because the defensive formation was still there.
They were accumulating power. When they attacked, they would give the xiuzhe of the Heaven Barracks a powerful wave of attacks.
Just at this time, a spiritual energy firework flashed in the air. It flashed three times in a row, and then exploded and disappeared.
"It's from the formation." Someone immediately said.
"What's going on over there?"
"Someone's sneak attack?"
"They seem to only have five people. Where are the other four?"
… …
The xiuzhe on the city wall had noticed that there were only five people on Meng Qi's side. However, they had been shocked by Ling Ji's sudden appearance. Later, it was Yan Xuan's lifebond talisman that attracted everyone's attention.
At this time, everyone finally reacted. Meng Qi's group only had five people attacking the city. There were still four people who hadn't shown up yet.
Among these four people, there was also the pavilion master of Falling Star Pavilion. He was the leader of the younger generation of sword xiu. He was definitely a strong person that couldn't be ignored, Pei Mufeng.
"Alright." Meng Qi raised his hand lightly. The Five Spirit Cauldron spun in the air.
She exhaled. The ling ocean in her body had almost become empty.
However … …
"Defensive formation!" Someone on the city wall suddenly shouted. "The defensive formation has disappeared!"
Yan Xuan's crescent moon flashed again. The moonlight became even brighter and shone down on the city wall.
Just at this time, outside the city wall, Ling Ji and Qin Xiumo's long swords that had been waiting for a long time suddenly turned into two cold lights and charged into the city wall like cheetahs that finally found their prey.
