Inside the mirage realm, Lu Ye's eyes were closed as the enemy wrapped in fog moved around him. However, no matter how the enemy attacked, Lu Ye's saber would accurately block them.
This battle had lasted for a full incense stick's worth of time.
If Lu Ye wanted to, as long as his heart force and spirit force were not exhausted, he could continue like this.
After cultivating in the mirage realm for half a month, his Heart's Eye Secret Technique had finally reached a minor accomplishment.
He entered the mirage realm a dozen times a day to cultivate, spending one or two thousand merit points. In this half a month, he had spent more than 20,000 merit points in the mirage realm.
The price he paid was not small, but the harvest was also great. If Xia Liang knew that Lu Ye had cultivated the Heart's Eye to this level in just half a month, his jaw would drop.
Back then, he had spent an entire half a year before barely reaching the threshold.
But now, Lu Ye had not only reached the threshold of the Heart's Eye Secret Technique, but the range of his defense was also twice as large, a foot wide.
He would be able to clearly sense any danger that came within a foot of him and counterattack accordingly.
The unforgettable memories brought about by his repeated deaths were one reason, and the other was due to the strength of Lu Ye's Soul.
In the fierce battle, Lu Ye, who had been standing motionless, suddenly took a step forward and slashed down with his saber.
This saber erupted with an extremely powerful aura, directly splitting the fog-wrapped enemy in two!
A single enemy could no longer pose any threat to Lu Ye, so it was time to increase the difficulty of his cultivation.
After waiting for a moment, the surrounding fog tumbled and two figures attacked from the left and right.
Although there was only one more enemy, the difficulty had more than doubled.
After a short while, Lu Ye was killed out of the mirage realm.
There was a slight tingling sensation in his mind, but it quickly disappeared without a trace.
He was about to enter the mirage realm again when Yi Yi suddenly said, "Lu Ye, there are people waiting for you outside."
Lu Ye frowned and walked to the window to look down. He found Zhou Yuntian and Xie Yunhan.
When he cultivated in the mirage realm, he opened the array formation of the pavilion every time, so Zhou Yuntian and Xie Yunhan just waited below and did not disturb him.
He didn't know why the two of them had come together.
Sensing Lu Ye's gaze, Zhou Yuntian looked up and cheerfully said, "Fellow Daoist Lu!"
Lu Ye said, "I was cultivating just now. Sorry to have kept you waiting. Please come in."
With that said, he turned off the array formation.
A short while later, Zhou Yuntian and Xie Yunhan entered together. As the host and guests sat down, Lu Ye served them tea before asking, "Is there something you need from me?"
Zhou Yuntian didn't say anything. He simply took out a storage pouch and pushed it in front of Lu Ye.
Lu Ye was suspicious. He picked up the storage pouch and inspected it. He found that there were many materials inside. Moreover, they were all materials used to refine array flags.
His heart sank, and he suddenly had a bad feeling.
Sure enough, Zhou Yuntian said, "His Honor has ordered the two of you to make more formation flags in case of an emergency."
Refining more array flags was obviously to be used to set up arrays. The number of materials in the storage bag was huge. If all of them were to be refined into array flags, at least a few hundred array flags could be refined. By then, the number of arrays that could be set up would definitely be large.
Combined with the information he had before, Lu Ye knew that the fox demon was about to make a move.
Although he had guessed in his heart, Lu Ye still asked, "Fellow Daoist Zhou, why does His Honor suddenly want to refine so many array flags?"
Zhou Yuntian hesitated for a moment, then sighed slightly and said, "Let Fellow Daoist Xie explain it to you. I still have things to do. I'll leave this place to the two of you. The two of you must be ready in ten days at the latest!"
It was unknown if he really had things to do or if it wasn't good to tell Lu Ye these things.
After Zhou Yuntian left, Lu Ye looked at Xie Yunhan.
The latter smiled bitterly and said, "Brother, although you haven't been in Fox Immortal Valley for long, have you never thought about why His Honor wants to gather so many people in Fox Immortal Valley?"
Lu Ye nodded, "Naturally, I have thought about it. However, His Honor must have her reasons for doing things."
Xie Yunhan sighed and said, "Actually, His Honor wants to gather so many people mainly for revenge!"
"Revenge?"
"That's right." Xie Yunhan nodded, "Although I don't know what kind of enmity His Honor has with that person, I can be sure that it is an unforgettable hatred that cannot be resolved. Moreover, our Fox Immortal Valley has already carried out this kind of revenge action more than once. "
Lu Ye had a surprised expression, "There are so many talents in the valley, what kind of enemy can't be killed?"
Xie Yunhan's eyes flashed with a trace of reminiscence, his body trembled slightly, then he stared at Lu Ye and said word by word, "An overlord-level monster beast!"
Lu Ye showed a shocked expression and cried out, "An overlord-level monster beast? Could it be that Berserk Giant Ape? "
Although he had already guessed it, guesses were only guesses. Xie Yunhan's words undoubtedly confirmed Lu Ye's previous guess.
The target of that fox demon's revenge was indeed that Berserk Giant Ape.
Xie Yunhan wasn't surprised that Lu Ye knew about the existence of the Berserk Giant Ape. After all, it was marked on the map. He nodded with a dignified expression, "It is that beast!"
"Finding an overlord-level monster beast for revenge, His Honor, she …"
"His Honor naturally has her reasons for doing this. As subordinates, the only thing we can do is to follow His Honor's orders. However, Fellow Daoist Lu, you don't have to worry. The two of us are formation cultivators, so we don't need to fight against that Berserk Giant Ape. We only need to help everyone with the formation, so there is still some guarantee of safety. "
Lu Ye finally understood why Xie Yunhan could live for twelve years in Fox Immortal Valley.
Although Fox Immortal Valley could gather quite a number of cultivators, from the beginning to the end, the number of formation cultivators was extremely scarce. Every time they took action against the Giant Berserk Ape, Xie Yunhan would only activate the formation that he had set up in advance to help. He did not need to fight the Giant Berserk Ape head on. Therefore, even if his revenge failed, Xie Yunhan could still survive.
As for the others … they were not so lucky. Every time they took action, a large number of cultivators died.
"Is it very dangerous?" Lu Ye asked seriously.
Xie Yunhan laughed bitterly: "In the twelve years I have been in Fox Immortal Valley, I have seen this kind of operation six times … Almost every time, more than eighty percent of the people in the valley would be lost. In the entire Fox Immortal Valley, other than me, Fellow Daoist Zhou has lived the longest. He came six years ago. You have never seen the might of that Berserk Giant Ape, so you don't know how powerful an overlord-level monster beast is. If you really see it, you will understand how dangerous it is to fight against it.
Lu Ye frowned and said: "Since that beast's strength is so great, why doesn't His Honor accumulate enough strength in one go and take revenge on it? Instead, we lose the people in the valley time and time again! "
"His Honor naturally has the same thought, but this place is located in the depths of Great Mang Mountains. Usually, very few cultivators set foot here. Gathering people is not as easy as you think. Last time, after Fellow Daoist Zhou brought you all back, there hasn't been a single newcomer. So, to accumulate enough strength is easier said than done."
"Then this time … in Brother Xie's opinion, do we have a chance of success?"
Xie Yunhan said: "This time, the number and strength of the people in the valley are much stronger than before. Moreover, there is Brother Lu, a formation cultivator, so I feel that the chances are very high. However, we can't lower our guard. What we need to do now is to refine as many formation flags as possible and set up more formations. With the power of the formations, we can weaken that beast's strength. Only then will His Honor have the possibility of taking revenge."
Lu Ye said: "It seems that we have a long way to go!"
Xie Yunhan laughed: "So, Brother should understand why His Honor values you so much, right? To be honest, to deal with that kind of enemy, the strength that we formation cultivators can display is what His Honor relies on the most. "
"I understand." Lu Ye nodded and said in a deep voice: "I will not disappoint His Honor!"
"Then hurry up and refine the formation flags."
As if because the operation was about to begin, the atmosphere in the entire Fox Immortal Valley became somber. Many cultivators did not know the specific details of the operation. They only knew that there would be a fierce battle in a few days. Under the orders of the fox demon, a large number of cultivation resources were distributed. Everyone was cultivating intensely, trying their best to increase their strength.
Lu Ye and Xie Yunhan spent every day either recovering their spiritual power or refining formation flags.
A large number of resources were consumed, and formation flags were freshly produced. After six days, all the materials were used up, and the number of formation flags refined had reached more than five hundred.
With so many formation flags, it was enough to set up hundreds of formations. If they could not do anything to the Giant Berserk Ape with the help of so many formations, then the cultivators of Fox Immortal Valley could only stretch out their necks and be stabbed. When that time came, who knew how many would die.
The Fox Immortal Valley was intensely preparing for revenge. At the same time, Feng Yuechan and Giant Armor, who had received Lu Ye's message, led the wolf pack out of the spiritual land and rushed in the direction of Fox Immortal Valley.
Feng Yuechan and Giant Armor alone might not have the ability to go too deep into Mount Tai Mang, but it was different with a wolf pack. Even if they encountered any powerful demonic beast, the wolf pack could deal with it.
Now, the size of the wolf pack had expanded to more than three hundred. Aside from a few dozen wolf cubs that had not yet grown up, the rest were all demonic wolves with strength comparable to the Cloud River Tier.
Regardless of whether the fox demon's operation against the Giant Berserk Ape was successful or not, after this battle, Fox Immortal Valley's strength would definitely be greatly reduced. This was also the golden opportunity that Lu Ye had been waiting for for a long time.
If the fox demon died in the battle against the Giant Berserk Ape, that would naturally be the best. At that time, everyone's divine sense secret technique would be removed.
If it did not die, then the wolf pack would attack Fox Immortal Valley and kill the fox demon!
There was no overly complicated plan, but often, the simpler the plan, the higher the possibility of success.
Now, the only problem that Lu Ye had to consider was Li Baxian's safety.
He and Li Baxian had the lowest cultivation in Fox Immortal Valley, but as a formation cultivator, he did not need to fight the Giant Berserk Ape head-on. However, Li Baxian was different. No matter how strong his foundation was in the Spirit Stream Tier, against a Cloud River Tier overlord, the effect that Li Baxian could play was extremely limited.
