Volume 2 Whose Era Chapter 50: Walking into a Trap
Qionghua is the sacred peak that specializes in making elixirs, Xuanji Peak.
At this moment, outside Xuanji Peak.
There were two groups of people confronting each other.
If there were any cultivators here, they would be so surprised that they would be speechless.
Because there are only two groups of cultivators, consisting of more than ten people, all of them are young cultivators with great reputations in the cultivation world.
Two of them had extremely strong auras, they were Long Xiao and Pang Bai.
Standing in the air behind them were Lei Xinggang, Yue Hexuan, and Yan Potian, all of whom were captain-level figures.
Even the top deputy captains such as Liu Wushang and Tang Yu could only be ranked last without any arrogance.
Not to mention some of the top team leaders behind them who have no temper at all.
"Pang Bai, I'm sure you also know that there are some strange things about this trip to the ruins of the Ancient Immortal Sect. Even the beast tide seems to be controlled by someone."
"Just half a day ago, someone disguised himself as you and me and raided our cultivators. Both you and I had captain-level figures who were seriously injured and had to evacuate." Long Xiao said calmly.
"Long Xiao, are you afraid?" Pang Bai's white hair fluttered, his face full of arrogance. "No matter who he is, in front of absolute power, all conspiracies are useless."
"Captain Pang, our captain told me before he was seriously injured and retreated that the person who attacked him was a ninth-level Nirvana figure who used poison skills."
"Aren't you worried that the fisherman will benefit from the conflict between the snipe and the clam?" Yue Hexuan still had a cold expression on his face, with his long hair hanging down and his clothes neat and tidy, as if no battle had ever taken place.
"Ninth Nirvana? Could it be Zhui Ming? When did Huo Mingxue's people sneak in?" Pang Bai frowned. As rebellious as he was, he had to think about a ninth-time Nirvana enemy hiding in the dark.
"Moreover, I suspect that there is more than one Ninth-Nirvana enemy sneaking in this time."
"What do you mean?" Pang Bai frowned.
In the entire Northern Territory, the number of geniuses who have achieved nine nirvanas can be counted on , and they have even known each other for a long time.
Just like the nine-time Nirvana genius who used poison skills mentioned just now, Pang Bai could instantly realize his identity. He was Zhui Ming, the number one cultivator under Master Xue and the core disciple of the Miao Du Sect among the ten major sects.
"The other person was lying in ambush on the side and ambushed our captain. If the captain had not arrived in time, the captain would have died." The person Yue Hexuan was talking about was Fang Qingzhuo, the captain of the Qinglong Army.
“The captain recognized that this is a ninth-time Nirvana cultivator who is good at concealment and assassination. It seems that he has just entered the ninth-time Nirvana not long ago.” Yue Hexuan said.
"What do you mean?" Pang Bai looked at Long Xiao.
"Let's cooperate temporarily and find the ancient immortal foundation-building pill, and then we can rely on our own abilities." Long Xiao said.
"I'm afraid of you." Although Pang Bai spoke arrogantly, he had obviously agreed to the proposal.
Even he didn't dare to deal with Zhui Ming while guarding against the Ninth Nirvana master who was good at assassination.
As he spoke, Pang Bai took the lead and flew towards the main hall of Xuanji Peak.
He kept a safe distance from Long Xiao.
After a while, the group flew away into the air.
~~
"It's incredible that Xuanji Peak is so well preserved."
Just after Long Xiao and the others left for a while, Wang Chen also arrived at Xuanji Peak. He looked up and was amazed.
For some reason, this sacred peak has remained intact.
The entire peak is dotted with quaint buildings with blue roofs and bluestone . Some buildings are built against the mountain, intersecting with the main building on the peak. The winding mountain trails are looming in the white mist, appearing to be indifferent to the world, yet full of layers.
After looking carefully from afar for a while, I saw only a group of palaces surrounded by clouds and mist, but no one was there.
According to the map of Qionghua Sect seen in the trial formation, Xuanji Peak is the place where Qionghua disciples practice and refine elixirs.
And the Immortal Refining Formation is among them.
Some people in the cultivation world may know something about the existence of the Immortal Refining Array, but not many know the detailed information.
Among the formations left by the ancient immortals, the teleportation formation is the most common. Because the principle is similar to the ordinary teleportation formation in the cultivation world, the ancient immortal teleportation formation is also the most used. However, apart from the teleportation formation, other formations are too complicated and few people can comprehend their use, not to mention the extremely mysterious immortal refining formation.
Therefore, after cultivators explored the uses of ancient immortal formations and lost a large number of formation geniuses due to various restrictions, trial mechanisms, and sudden attacks of ice and fire, few people were involved in the exploration of ancient formations. Most cultivators focused on refining pills, and at least the biggest loss in case of failure was materials, not life.
If Wang Chen had not seen the legend about the Immortal Refining Array in the Guangyuan Tongjianlu, even if he saw the Immortal Refining Array, he would not have known its purpose and how to activate it.
Therefore, he was very sure that, except for him, no one else would be interested in the formations located on both sides of Xuanji Peak.
Although the three are not far apart, as long as he is careful, he should not encounter too much danger.
The only thing to worry about is that if Xuanji Peak is intact, whether the mountain protection formation is also intact. If so, it will be difficult for him to enter.
While thinking, he flew towards Xuanji Peak.
After flying for a while, they arrived at the gate of the palace complex on Xuanji Peak. Tall stone pillars stood in the sea of clouds. The ancient stone gate, built with white jade pillars, had coiled dragons and carved phoenixes on it, and looked simple and majestic.
The entire mountain was peaceful and tranquil, but in the calm air, there was a slight distortion from time to time. That was the mountain protection formation of this spiritual peak.
If someone trespasses without checking, they will be attacked by the mountain protection formation in an instant.
But at this moment, someone used some unknown means to break a hole in the stone gate of Xuanji Peak that was only big enough for one person to enter.
"Sure enough, the mountain protection formation of Xuanji Peak has been opened." Wang Chen frowned and carefully investigated with his spiritual sense.
"It seems that both Qi Tian and Wei Wuji's people have already prepared for this trip."
"This mountain protection formation is open, could there be an ambush?"
"Based on the time, Long Xiao and Pang Bai should have been in the formation for at least half a day. I should be safe now."
Wang Chen didn't want to wait any longer, because the Qionghua Sect could disappear into the void at any time, and it would be too late to regret then.
Moreover, this mountain protection formation was slowly repairing itself, and the tiny gap was slowly shrinking.
Fortune and wealth are achieved through risk.
Wang Chen was secretly alert, and with a determined heart, he rushed into the formation.
Behind the stone gate is a flat and solid path.
The surroundings were quiet and deserted.
Walking along the flat path, we gradually arrived in front of the Xuanji Palace.
The vermilion stone pillars, as thick as two people can hug, support the towering palace. Every brick and tile is much larger than those outside. The green glazed roof is dazzling and clear, and the vermilion lacquered gate is topped with cloud-patterned eaves, giving it an antique style.
However, although this place is beautiful, it is too clean and tidy.
It's like newly built.
This feeling made Wang Chen feel inexplicably uncomfortable.
It was like the illusion that a dead person suddenly appeared in front of him alive and well.
"Is it true that Xuanji Peak is well preserved because it has not been affected by war?" he pondered secretly.
At this moment, the gap in the formation in the white mist behind him was restored silently.
The formation has completed self-repair.
At this moment, Wang Chen's face became extremely ugly.
"I wanted to catch a big fish, but I ended up catching a small shrimp."
A frivolous and defiant voice came from behind.
This was a naked trap. Everything he saw was a man-made illusion. He was so stupid as to fall into it. Wang Chen understood everything.
