Chapter 328: Ambush
Chapter 328: Ambush
The City Lord’s Office and his party were chased by the Red Phosphorus Rattlesnake, but Xu Chuniang had avoided the risk early on.
After the female of the Red Phosphorus Rattlesnake appeared, she realized that it was not good, and without hesitation chose to go around the road.
With those people in front of her, she got away smoothly and circled around the road to arrive near the exit of the secret realm.
She was about to go forward when her divine sense swept over the empty exit in the distance, her brows furrowed slightly, and she quietly stopped walking.
This place had been set up with a chain formation, and the real exit had been concealed.
The grades of these formations were very high, in addition to a Grade 2 Illusion Formation and a Grade 2 Killing Formation, there was also an extremely powerful Concealment Formation that had even reached Grade 3.
With her current ability, she could easily crack the illusion formation and killing formation, but this grade three concealment formation was very tricky.
After Xu Chuniang thought briefly, she retreated instead of advancing.
Those who could lay such a chain formation at the exit to ambush and kill other cultivators were afraid that more than one person had done it.
She found a place to gather her breath and conceal her figure, and only quietly released her divine sense to secretly check.
Did not wait long, there are two cultivators came together, they are about to step into the range of the formation, one of them seems to have sensed something.
“Wait, there’s something wrong here. The surroundings are a little too quiet.”
The other person released his divine sense to probe, but found nothing.
“Since this is the exit, it’s normal to be a bit quieter. It’s better to leave this secret realm earlier to avoid a long night.”
With that, he took a step forward.
Seeing that his companion was fine, the one who had spoken earlier thought that he had been overly vigilant, so he relaxed his mind to follow.
However, after the two of them stepped into the formation together, the situation around them changed, the exit that they had seen earlier had disappeared, and was replaced by a life-threatening blow.
Xu Chuniang’s divine sense perceived all of this, and the two cultivators broke out into a brief but intense battle since they entered the formation.
It didn’t take long for that commotion to disappear, and the formation once again fell silent.
Of those two cultivators, one had a mid Foundation Establishment cultivation and the other had only reached the late Foundation Establishment stage.
From the time they stepped into the formation to the time they died, it was only half a cup of tea.
She was secretly glad that she didn’t step into the formation hastily, daring to set up a formation at the exit and hunt down all the cultivators who entered the secret realm, either they were arrogant and cocky, or they were strong and powerful.
Xu Chuniang was more inclined towards the latter, arrogant and cocky people usually died early.
She withdrew her body back a bit and chose a more secluded position to hide.
Two days passed, and in the past two days, five or six groups of people stepped out of the formation, and have never come out since.
Among them, there were two groups of people who had recognized the formation in advance and wanted to leave, however, the group of people who had laid down the formation refused to give them a chance and took the initiative to attack and kill these two groups of people.
It was these two times that allowed Xu Chuniang to see part of the other party’s strength.
Just by showing up, there were six or seven late stage Foundation Establishment cultivators, and there were several more hidden in the formation.
In this situation, Xu Chuniang was even less likely to act rashly.
Although she thought she had a few strength, but the other side of the crowd, but also has a formation to help, occupying the geographical location and people, rashly rushed in is looking for death.
She could only wait for some more powerful cultivators, and when they were fighting with the people who set up the formation, that was the opportunity to take advantage of it.
After half a day like this, two more figures arrived nearby, it was the duo of You Sinniang and Tan Lang.
They stopped early at a place extremely far from the exit.
A delicate smile appeared on You Sinniang’s face as she swept her gaze from the vicinity of the exit.
“This place is a treasure of feng shui, but it’s a pity that we came late and it was occupied by someone else.”
Tan Lang glances at his own Dao Couple with a smile, “What’s the harm in being late, just kill those people and take it over again.” Saying this, he is about to cast a spell, but is stopped by You Sinniang.
“Why rush out and cheapen the others? Anyway, there are still a few days before the secret realm closes, we’ll just wait.”
The two of them discussed a bit, and actually looked for a place to hide their forms, just like Xu Chuniang.
I don’t know what method they used, even the divine sense couldn’t detect the slightest.
Xu Chuniang also did not care, after all, the purpose of everyone is the same, only secretly the two left the direction of the note.
After You Sinniang and Tan Lang, the pair of Evil Cultivator couples, concealed their forms, there were several air-breaking sounds coming from them.
Immediately after, five or six sword cultivators came with their swords.
The first one was an old man in a golden robe, his divine sense probing for a week, his brows slightly furrowed as he forced down his flying sword in advance.
Several cultivators behind the old man saw this and stopped behind him, looking around with a slightly austere expression.
“Senior uncle, is something wrong?”
“This place has been set up with a chain formation, the exit is fake, the real exit should be hidden within the formation.”
The old man looked calm, “Prepare to break the formation with me!”
“Yes!”
The flying sword underneath the old man let out a “clang” sound and slashed at the formation in front of him with an unstoppable momentum.
At the same time, the five people behind him raised their sword duel, and the five swords followed closely behind them towards the formation.
In the old man’s flying sword is about to hit the formation, a small brass-colored clock from the formation floated out, dripping and spinning to meet the flying sword.
The small clock just appeared when only the size of a palm, every spinning circle will be several times larger, to finally meet the flying sword when, has been the size of a three-person embrace.
“Clang!”
The flying sword was draped on top of the copper clock, making a huge impact sound, the copper clock vibrated, in the end, the flying sword blocked down.
The remaining five flying swords were also blocked by other spiritual weapons respectively.
The old man coldly grunted, the whole person exuded a stern sharpness, the flying sword lightly vibrated, emitting a sword sound, once again towards the formation to chop.
The big brass bell once again blocked in front of the formation and met the flying swords, only this time, it was lifted off its feet by the even more powerful flying swords.
The flying sword’s momentum was slightly reduced, and it landed on top of the invisible formation, causing ripples.
“Do a few fellow Daoists still want to continue watching the battle?”
After the strike worked, the old man didn’t rush out his sword, but instead said this.
Although leading his disciples could break the formation, he had no intention of doing it for others.
Xu Chuniang’s gaze flickered slightly, and she was hesitant to show up and break the formation together, when she saw two figures emerge on the opposite side of the room, which were none other than You Sinniang and Tan Lang.
You Sinniang covered her mouth and laughed softly, “We are evil cultivators, do you want to join forces with me and my wife? Aren’t you afraid that we will deal with you in turn?”
Hearing this, those sword cultivators behind him didn’t look too good.
The old man’s face was unchanged, his voice smooth, “In that case, then I will kill you two first.”
Seemingly not expecting such an answer, You Sinniang’s skin jerked, her face uncertain.
Tan Lang coldly swept over the several sword cultivators, his voice resounded sorrowfully, “Wanting to kill the two of us, it’s not that easy.”
For a while, the atmosphere was tense with swords, seemingly threatening to strike at any moment.
