The next morning, Huang Erqian brought the spirit stones to the foot of Qianjimen Mountain.
Not only spirit stones, he also picked out some special materials he had received and prepared them for Ye Su.
"You're here so early?" Ye Su was squatting at the gate in deep thought, and was a little surprised to see Huang Erqian.
"It will only take one night to sort out the spirit stones." Huang Erqian looked much more energetic than before. Although he still looked a little tired, his back was straighter than when they first met, and he no longer looked skinny and thief-like.
It was rare to see Ye Su talking about something so seriously. Huang Erqian was worried that she would need it urgently, so he did not rest all night and searched for spirit stones everywhere, fearing that he would be late.
"Thank you." Ye Su stood up and took the spirit stone handed over by Huang Erqian.
"The other is the materials collected this year. See if you can use them." Huang Erqian sighed, "We ordinary cultivators can't deal with demons. We can only rely on powerful cultivators."
After delivering the spirit stones, he spoke a few words to Ye Su and then left in a hurry, as he still had a pile of materials to pack and store.
Ye Su stood in place, holding the bag of spirit stones, and poured out all the spirit stones, almost piling them up into a small hill. It was obvious that Huang Erqian had taken great pains to collect quite a few spirit stones.
She channeled them all into the core of the gate-guarding formation and triggered the formation with her spiritual power.
After a moment, the spiritual energy in front of Qianji Gate fluctuated violently, and the gate protection formation slowly rose, covering the entire Qianji Gate.
Zhang Fengfeng, who had been tossing and turning in the room and couldn't sleep, noticed something strange. He quickly got up from the bed, ran out, and saw the rising door protection formation.
Doesn’t the eldest disciple need to rest every day
Zhang Fengfeng rushed down from Jiuxuan Peak and happened to run into You Fushi who was stepping on the Blood-Crying Sword: "Fushi, can you let Master take the sword and go down with you?"
You Fushi shook his head and flew down on the Blood-Crying Sword, but the blood-crying floated out of the sword and remained where it was.
Zhang Fengfeng yelled, stepped back repeatedly, and instantly put up a spiritual power shield: "Who are you?!"
The evil aura of this red-clothed male demon looks like a demon, but it seems that he is not a demon.
Qixue directly punched through Zhang Fengfeng's spiritual power shield, grabbed the headmaster's waist, and led him down the mountain: "I will take you down."
Zhang Fengfeng's whole body was stiff. He heard a whistling sound in his ears and all he could see were the trees falling backwards: "..." What the hell
At the other end of the mountain, Elder Hu was also alarmed and came out.
As for Yu Shoumen, he sat at the table and just glanced outside, then looked away and began to organize the books.
After the gate protection formation was fully raised, in order to see all the loopholes clearly, Ye Su released his spiritual sense again, covering the entire formation, trying to find anything unusual.
"What happened?" Elder Hu murmured as he stood on the trial field.
Afterwards, You Fushi and Zhang Fengfeng also came down from Jiuxuan Peak one after another.
Zhang Fengfeng was terrified all the way, but finally landed safely. He pointed at Qixue and said, "You, you..."
"This is a sword spirit." Elder Hu said to Zhang Fengfeng, "Learn more, get in touch with it more, maybe you will be able to cultivate a weapon spirit in the future."
Zhang Fengfeng was shocked when he heard this: "Sword Spirit!"
He immediately grabbed Qixue and looked at him curiously, without any of the horror he had before.
Qixue raised his head proudly and let Zhang Fengfeng look at him. As an evil spirit unique in heaven and earth, he deserved everyone's attention!
You Fushi stood at the edge of the trial field, quietly looking at Ye Su in front of him, with the Blood-Crying Sword thrown at his feet.
After being stared at, Qixue immediately slid over, picked himself up, and blew away the dust on himself with a look of heartache.
Accepting a master who didn't cherish the sword was the most unfortunate thing that happened to Qixue in his life. Although he had instigated many things before, he had clearly turned over a new leaf!
…
Only after his spiritual sense covered the gate-guarding formation did Ye Su have a more complete understanding of the formation's layout and conditions.
This great formation is in a dilapidated state, with many traces of repairs, and several places are of only average quality. No wonder it has to be repaired every hundred years.
The gate-guarding formation was too complicated, and Ye Su could not fully understand it at her current level, so she focused on studying those places that showed signs of repairs. Following these places, she found an formation within an formation as expected.
Someone had indeed tampered with the sect. The Qianji Sect's members were all weapon refiners who were not familiar with formations. They would never have thought that someone would hide such a formation within the sect's protective formation.
This array within an array was very carefully hidden. If Ye Su had not speculated on it with a suspicious look, she would not have discovered that it could extract spiritual energy. There were also several arrays within arrays that she could not even see.
Ye Su opened her eyes, turned around and saw that the three people and one spirit in the trial field were all looking at her.
"What happened?" Zhang Fengfeng asked nervously.
"The gate protection formation has indeed been tampered with." Ye Su said, "There are many things I don't understand and can't repair."
Zhang Fengfeng's face was grim: "Over the past thousands of years, there have been quite a few people who came to Qianjimen to repair the formation."
"I heard that in the past people from the Ten Thousand Buddha Sect were usually invited?" Ye Su asked. She still had a four-sided lotus staff in her Qiankun bag, and combined with the direction of the spiritual energy she had tracked before, it was hard not to suspect that it was related to the Ten Thousand Buddha Sect.
“During the heyday of Qianji Sect, the leader of Wanfo Sect was always invited to repair the protective formation. Later, he became the grand elder, and finally the elder. Five hundred years ago, no one took over the position.” Although Elder Hu was not sure what had happened, he still wanted to tell him some of the things he knew.
In fact, the Qianji Sect had not been as powerful as it used to be more than two thousand years ago, but it was normal for all the major sects to have ups and downs. Until more than five hundred years ago, the Qianji Sect had clearly gained momentum, but because there were too many geniuses and the level of their refining equipment was too high, their spiritual veins dried up completely. Being too rare became the final label of the Qianji Sect.
"The Ten Thousand Buddha Sect is the most proficient in formations." Zhang Fengfeng sighed, "You don't understand either. How can we remove this formation that protects the gate?"
It was a waste of time that he had to use his last bit of spirit stone to operate the gate-protecting formation after all these years.
Ye Su said calmly: "If the formation is broken, just get rid of it directly."
Zhang Fengfeng's eyes lit up immediately when he heard this: "My eldest disciple, you have a good brain!"
Ye Su did not fully understand the formation and could only resort to brute force to break it, but she obviously underestimated the power of this gate-protecting formation.
They can destroy the formation at any time. They know where the center of the formation is in advance, which makes it easier to destroy it.
Zhang Fengfeng immediately gathered his spiritual power and struck at the center of the formation, filled with anger for being deceived for so many years.
It’s just that the gate-protecting formation may no longer be able to completely resist external attacks, but it’s not that easy to destroy it.
The power of Zhang Fengfeng's late stage of fusion was not small, but when he hit the center of the formation, he was counterattacked by the formation, causing damage to himself, and he was directly knocked to the ground.
"Master?" Elder Hu immediately stepped forward and helped Zhang Fengfeng up.
"The center of the formation..." Zhang Fengfeng struggled to get up and looked at the center of the formation, "Why is it still fine?"
Ye Su frowned. Was it possible that she had to study the formation thoroughly first
At her current level, some things about the formation are completely incomprehensible to her, and she needs to advance to be able to feel the flow of spiritual energy in the formation.
You Fushi tilted his head to look at Ye Su's frowning brows, and suddenly stretched out his hand towards Qixue.
Qixue was still hugging himself, and when he saw his master stretch out his hand, he reluctantly put the sword in his hand.
The moment You Fushi lowered his eyes and drew out the Blood-Crying Sword, the Blood-Crying sword also returned to the sword body. The blood-red sword faced the first ray of golden light from the rising sun, and the moment he raised his eyes, it slashed towards the Qianji Sect's gate guarding formation that had stood for ten thousand years.
—The center of the formation suddenly shattered.
