Shen Xiang chose a hill and then told everyone about his plan. They were going to dig some caves in the hill and hide inside. After some time had passed, in order to ensure their safety, they would dig a tunnel in the hill leading to another place. In case they were unable to defend, they would escape through the tunnel.
"We will arrange a large array. If we encounter a powerful guy, we will open the array and support them for some time, allowing everyone to escape through the tunnel." Shen Xiang said.
Everyone here had received help from Shen Xiang, so they had no objection. They were very supportive of Shen Xiang.
"Good, let's start now. We will divide the work. Those above the 4th level of the Mortal Martial Realm will patrol to avoid being ambushed. Xianxian and Youlan will arrange the array. Others will dig the tunnel. Female disciples don't need to dig, they will help arrange the large array." Shen Xiang said.
Zhu Rong pursed his lips and said, "Younger brother Shen, you can't be lazy. You have to dig the tunnel with us."
Yun Xiaodao nodded and said, "Yes, elder brother Shen, you have to be fair!"
With 4th or 5th level True Martial Realm martial artists protecting them, they would feel relieved to dig the tunnel, so they didn't oppose.
Shen Xiang grinned, "Hei hei, I am already in the 5th level of the True Martial Realm, so there is no need to dig!"
Everyone was surprised. They had always believed that Shen Xiang was in the 2nd or 3rd level of the True Martial Realm, and only by relying on a powerful treasured blade and mysterious martial arts, he was very powerful. But now Shen Xiang said he was in the 5th level of the True Martial Realm. Then, wouldn't his strength be comparable to the 6th or 7th level?
"Really?" Zhu Rong didn't believe it. He knew that Shen Xiang could impersonate a 5th level True Martial Realm martial artist with the strength of a 3rd level True Martial Realm martial artist.
Yun Xiaodao also didn't believe it. Everyone also didn't believe it. Xue Xianxian and Leng Youlan had always trusted Shen Xiang. But now, Shen Xiang had suddenly come to this step, which made it somewhat difficult for them to accept.
"Have you heard of Wei Hongdao? It was slaughtered in the forest just now, "Shen Xiang said with a smile.
Wei Hongdao was a very famous young man in the devil path sects. However, he had a bad reputation. His strength was in the 5th level of the True Martial Realm, but he was able to kill a 6th level True Martial Realm martial artist.
"I killed him with one slash. If you don't believe me, do you want to try?" Shen Xiang laughed.
Wei Hongdao was chopped to death with a single slash. Everyone sucked in a mouthful of cold air. Previously, they had heard a loud noise coming from the forest. Of course, they knew that it was caused by Shen Xiang, but now they had no choice but to believe it.
After knowing Shen Xiang's exact strength, everyone was relieved. Furthermore, there were several Alchemist here who could help them recover quickly.
"Brother, aren't you going to look for the Beast Martial Sect and the Proud Sword Sect?" Leng Youlan asked.
Shen Xiang sneered, "There is no need to look for them. Those guys were all chopped up by me. In order to save them, I had to fight with a powerful Devil Beast. In the end, I was seriously injured. However, those guys coveted my treasured blade and turned around to kill me. Fortunately, I still have a little bit of strength left."
"Brother Xiang, are you alright?" Xue Xianxian hastily ran over and pressed on Shen Xiang's wrist. She wanted to check Shen Xiang's injuries.
"I'm alright. Because of that, I entered the 5th level of the True Martial Realm." Shen Xiang pinched her face and said with a smile.
Yun Xiaodao coldly snorted, "Those guys deserve to die. After we go out, tell the Dean and let them destroy the Beast Martial Sect and the Proud Sword Sect."
The disciples of the other sects were all shocked. Before they came, Gu Dongchen had already said that no one dared to touch Shen Xiang.
If Shen Xiang dared to touch them, their sects would be finished. After they went out, there would definitely be a reign of terror. Gu Dongchen had already chopped up the Beast Martial Sect's Dean. It would not be difficult for him to destroy the Beast Martial Sect. On the other hand, the Proud Sword Sect and many other sects were not on good terms. Some time ago, they had colluded with the devil path and wanted to occupy the crystal stone lodes of the Taiwu Gate. They had long been hated by the Taiwu Gate.
In the middle of the hill, a relatively large stone room was dug out. After that, many small stone rooms were dug out. This hill was made of stiff black stones, which was very difficult to dig out. However, if they encountered an attack, they could resist for a longer time.
The escape passage led to a forest in the distance. This was decided after many discussions, because opposite the forest was the canyon that had disappeared. Moreover, the trees in the forest were relatively large, and the ground was relatively solid. It was made of very stiff stones. If they encountered a group attack, the dense trees inside could also block it.
Among the forty people, only seven were women, which was relatively small. Thirteen of them were in the 4th level of the True Martial Realm or above, which was relatively large. That was why there were only twenty people digging the hole. Even if those stones were hard, for the True Martial Realm martial artists, it was a piece of cake. They used their vigorous True Qi and spirit tools, so digging the hole was not too difficult.
Leng Youlan and Xue Xianxian led five women to arrange the array. This kind of meticulous work could only be done by women.
From time to time, Shen Xiang also looked at them arranging the array. They also had to do a lot of hard work. For example, on the stiff stone walls, or on the ground, they had to dig out very fine lines. There could not be any deviation. Furthermore, Xue Xianxian and Leng Youlan released some cold Qi on the ground to make marks for the women to dig. After they were done, they would also join in.
"Qianqian, your flame is very powerful. It can be so easily solved, and so quickly done." Xue Xianxian exclaimed. She saw that Wu Qianqian was only using one finger to draw on the stiff ground, as if she was drawing on an ordinary muddy ground. Although there was no flame on Wu Qianqian's jade finger, everyone could feel the heat emitted from it.
"Hehe, my flame is just better! Unlike you, Xianxian, not only do you know how to arrange arrays, you are also very strong. "Wu Qianqian laughed and said.
Leng Youlan said, "Qianqian, your flame is not simple. I can also use fire, but I can't use it like you!" She poured her flame into a spirit tool dagger, and carefully engraved some lines on the ground.
The other women were also doing the same, all of them using spirit tools and True Qi.
"Is it enough to carve the lines according to those marks?" Shen Xiang walked over and asked.
"En, it will take a long time. We still have to go around the entire mountain from top to bottom." Xue Xianxian said.
"This old lady is not a person to do this kind of meticulous work, but the Valley Master insisted on giving it to me." Leng Youlan lightly snorted. Looking at her appearance, she could not wait to take out the big sword on her back and ruthlessly hack at the ground.
