Volume 1: Rebellion in Chang'an Chapter 116: Change of Formation
…
Cai Heng and his two companions, who were already close to breaking out successfully, successfully got rid of those crazy monsters and moved to a safe place with the cover of the Yinhu team and the protection of Lu Qingshan.
The three people who escaped from danger all felt like they had survived a calamity, but the loss of essence and blood caused by Cai Heng taking the blood-clotting pill was already irreversible.
The belief that they had upheld in protecting mortals was destroyed by the monsters, and all the beast pets they had deep feelings for were killed, but Shi Youling and her son managed to escape from danger temporarily.
Cai Heng, who was breathing weakly, no longer had many worries. At this moment, he only had one last thought in his mind.
Cai Heng looked at Lu Qingshan with a hopeful look in his cloudy eyes. "Was that sword move you just used the Wind Slashing Move?"
The reason why he passed the skill of Cutting the Wind to Lu Qingshan was not only to express his gratitude to Lu Qingshan, but also because he saw that Lu Qingshan was very talented and hoped that the skill of Cutting the Wind would shine again in Lu Qingshan's hands.
But according to his thinking, even if Lu Qingshan could really master the Zhan Feng technique, it would definitely be many years later, and he would definitely not have the chance to witness it.
But he never expected that in less than a month, he would actually see the Wind-Cutting Technique in Lu Qingshan's hands.
Lu Qingshan nodded gently to Cai Heng, who was already at the end of his life.
"Great! Great! I didn't expect that I, Cai, would be able to see my family's Wind-Cutting Skill before I died. I will die without regrets... I will die without regrets..." Cai Heng couldn't help but burst into laughter.
What does it mean for a swordsman to be able to master the secret sword technique within a month?
Cai Heng already had a clear answer in his mind.
True Kendo!
In Lu Qingshan's hands, the family's wind-cutting skill will surely shine with even more brilliance, and this is what really makes him happy.
Cai Heng's laughter became weaker and weaker, and finally there was no sound at all.
The dry and thin hands hung down weakly, and the weak breath completely disappeared.
"Grandpa..." Cai Xingchao held Cai Heng's gradually cooling hand tightly, unable to utter a word.
…
"Brother Lu, where did these ferocious beasts come from?" Cai Xingchao bit his lips tightly, his eyes filled with hatred.
The shy boy in front of me, whose once very childish face was now filled with a determined look.
This is the growth that comes from suffering.
"Underworld." Lu Qingshan slowly uttered a name.
"Hell... Hell..." Cai Xingchao kept repeating these two words, as if he wanted to engrave the name deeply in his mind.
In order to rescue them, the Yinhu team has wasted a lot of time.
Although Xu Hao and others did not urge him, Lu Qingshan also knew the priorities of the matter and did not dare to delay any longer.
With a slight sigh, Lu Qingshan took out two talismans from his storage ring and handed them to Shi Youling, who also had red eyes.
"This is a breath-suppressing talisman. If you are careful, it should be able to protect you. Hide well and don't fight these monsters head-on. If everything goes well, it won't be long before Zhenjiang City is restored to its original state."
Patting Cai Xingchao's hand, Lu Qingshan said softly, "Take good care of your mother."
…
A secret place in Zhenjiang City.
Complex lines converged to form an extremely mysterious formation diagram, with hundreds of dark crystals inlaid in the nodes of the formation diagram.
Standing in the formation diagram was a burly middle-aged male cultivator.
"Master Shura, six more auxiliary array points are damaged." Luosha reported to the middle-aged male cultivator in disbelief: "There are a total of twelve main array points in the Shura Blood Transformation Array, and one has been destroyed. Thirty-seven of the three hundred and sixty auxiliary array points have also been destroyed. However, the city is so chaotic at this time. How did the monk guarding the tower find the array points of the Shura Blood Transformation Array?"
Shura's face was gloomy. "If we don't act decisively and take action immediately, our hundred-year plan would have failed, right?"
Luosha's dry face looked extremely ugly, and he said ashamedly: "My Lord, you are wise. It was I who underestimated Zhishoulou."
It is unimaginable how much energy the underworld has expended in planning the reincarnation of the demon.
Not to mention the hundred years it took to infiltrate an entire prefecture, not to mention the humiliation they had to endure during that hundred years, just the magical beasts that filled the city had cost them countless resources to cultivate.
These magical beasts were originally ordinary monsters that were born and bred in the human territory.
They spent all their efforts, either taming or purchasing, to gather such a large number of monsters.
When the Shura Blood Transformation Formation was activated, they used the unique methods of the demons to intensify the killing instinct and savagery in the hearts of these monsters, turning them into demon beasts.
When these monsters fell into a state of insane eating , they would quietly release them, spread them throughout the city, and frantically attack and devour the humans within their sight, causing one massacre after another.
Shura waved his sleeves and said, "It's not important how Zhishoulou found the location of the formation. We don't have extra time to waste on exploring these meaningless things. The key now is how to stop Zhishoulou from breaking the formation."
"Lord Shura, at least 40% of the Shura Blood Transformation Array's array points must be destroyed before the array will collapse. And now the blood energy we have collected has reached 50% of the planned amount. At this rate, we will definitely be able to reincarnate a demon child before the Shura Blood Transformation Array is cracked. It seems there is no need to worry too much." Luosha said.
Shura looked at Luosha with contempt and said in a grim tone, "Only fools would have such a lucky thought. The closer you are to success, the more cautious you should be. I will not let a moment of negligence lead to a complete loss at the last step."
If the operation fails this time, the human race, who has been prepared after this incident, will not fall in the same place twice. At that time, the difficulty of taking action again will increase exponentially.
Therefore, for the underworld, this plan can only succeed and cannot fail.
"Give the order to let the monks guarding the main formation point withdraw from the main formation point and move to the auxiliary formation point." Shura's eyes were full of gloom.
Luosha's heart skipped a beat, frightened by Shura's boldness, "Won't the main formation point be left in an empty state with no one guarding it?"
The importance of the main array points far exceeds that of the auxiliary array points. As long as more than half of them are damaged, even if all the auxiliary array points are intact, the Shura Blood Transformation Array will be declared collapsed.
Shura had no expression on his face, and said in a deep voice: "During this period of time , auxiliary array points have been breached by Zhishou Tower. However, the major main array points have not been attacked since the first main array point was breached. What does this indicate? This shows that apart from the first main array point, Zhishou Tower's intelligence does not involve the positions of the remaining main array points!"
"In that case, let's just empty the main formation point and concentrate our manpower on the auxiliary formation point to catch them off guard at Zhishoulou."
"Yes!" Even though he felt that Shura's idea was too risky, Luosha did not dare to disobey Shura's order and could only respond respectfully.
