The threat in the middle-aged scholar's words was self-evident. The other party was only at the first level of Jindan and had just arrived. A sensible person would naturally know how to make a choice.
But Xu Chunniang is a person who doesn't play by the rules.
The other party set a trap first, and she was just giving an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. Why should a deal that was made by her own ability be voided
In a word, it is impossible to ask her to spit out the spirit stones to them!
Xu Chunniang glanced at the two people opposite her coldly, "After saying so much, are you going to take action or not? If you don't take action, I will really leave!"
The middle-aged scholar and the beautiful female cultivator were extremely angry, but they did not dare to take any action.
There are always Nascent Soul cultivators on this island. If you act rashly, you will be thrown out of the island.
They were counting on selling a few more Immortal Palace Orders to make money, so how could they be willing to be kicked out
"Very good, I will remember you! We will meet again, and I hope that by then, you can be as tough as you are now."
The middle-aged scholar said this calmly, looked at her deeply, and signaled the beautiful female cultivator to make way.
The beautiful female cultivator curled her lips, reluctantly stepped aside, and watched the other person leave.
"Third brother, are you just going to let her go like this?"
"Fighting is prohibited on the island, so let her be proud for a few days. You follow her secretly to prevent her from running away."
The middle-aged scholar snorted coldly, and a hint of cruelty flashed in his eyes.
"Since she has the Immortal Palace Order, she will most likely go to the ruins. Sooner or later, we will have a chance to get back at her for what happened today."
"Yes, Third Brother!"
The beautiful female cultivator nodded slightly, and without hesitation, she used the art of concealment, and continued to follow the other party while he was still there.
Not long after Xu Chunniang left the teahouse, the uncomfortable feeling of being followed appeared again.
The other party did not give up and followed again.
However, fighting was prohibited on this island, so it would be useless for them to follow her.
Xu Chunniang walked on the street and headed towards the center of the island. She entered an inn and asked for a room. After the routine inspection and formation, she stayed in the room with peace of mind.
I have bought almost all the things I need. Now that the ruins are not opened yet, I should quickly refine some formation plates and enhance my strength.
In addition to the materials for the Spirit Gathering Array, she also had a set of materials for refining the Taiyin Dragon Devouring Array.
The Spirit Gathering Array can greatly enhance the recovery effect of meditation and is a must-have for spiritual practice.
The Taiyin Dragon-Devouring Formation is a water-based trapping and killing formation. If it can be successfully refined into a formation plate, it can also add a lot of help.
Xu Chunniang took a deep breath and put aside all distracting thoughts. After her mind was clear, she took out all the materials for refining the spirit gathering array and began to refine them on a blank array plate.
Outside the inn, the beautiful female cultivator stood guard for a long time, but no one came out.
She hesitated for a moment, then walked into the inn and asked the innkeeper indirectly.
"The female cultivator in green just now is my senior sister. I did something wrong and angered her, so she refused to talk to me. Would you like to tell me the room number of my senior sister?"
The innkeeper looked hesitant. According to the rules, he was not allowed to reveal the room number to the guests.
Upon seeing this, the beautiful female cultivator threw out a small bag of spirit stones and placed it on the table.
"As long as you tell me, these will be yours. Don't worry, no one else will know."
The guy's spiritual sense swept over the spirit stones in the bag, a look of joy appeared on his face, he looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to what was happening here, so he quickly put the spirit stones away.
He lowered his voice and said, "I can only tell you, Senior, that your sister wants a floor-level room. I can't say more."
The beautiful female cultivator's heart moved slightly, and she took out another small bag of spirit stones from her storage ring.
"Be more specific."
But the clerk refused to accept it, "Senior, please don't embarrass me. I've already taken a risk by saying this."
The beautiful female cultivator had no choice but to put away the spirit stone and leave along the same route she came.
Third brother is right, there is a long way to go, so let’s wait and see.
If anyone dares to plot against them and their siblings, they will get revenge sooner or later!
Xu Chunniang, who was completely immersed in refining the formation plate, naturally had no feeling about this.
She had successfully set up a third-level spirit gathering array twice, but although the principles of setting up the array and refining the array plate were the same, the specific techniques were very different.
If you want to place the formation on a small formation plate and formation flags, the changes involved are more delicate and complicated, and the requirements for spiritual awareness are also higher.
If there is a slight mistake, at best the spiritual energy will run wild and the position of the formation will be disordered; in more serious cases, the formation plate may even be damaged, resulting in all previous efforts being wasted.
Xu Chunniang did not dare to be careless and concentrated all her attention on the formation plate in her hand. She would rather go slower than rush for quick results.
During the first few days after she moved into the inn, the beautiful female nun would come over and keep an eye on her from time to time.
But as time went by, she came less and less frequently, from every day to once every ten days.
In the end, it even evolved into only coming once a month.
Xu Chunniang knew nothing about this, and even if she knew, she wouldn't care.
After more than four months of hard work, she has successfully refined the spirit gathering array.
After failing three times and destroying the formation twice, he finally succeeded.
Xu Chunniang put the formation plate aside, took out a small blank flag, and began to refine the Eight Directions Formation Flag.
With the formation plate, it is much easier to refine the formation flag.
In less than a month, she completed the refining of the eight formation flags.
After Xu Chunniang left her spiritual imprint on the formation plate and formation flags, she thought about it and the eight formation flags flew towards eight directions.
The formation plate is located in the center, and the eight flags are located in eight directions, each in its place without interfering with each other.
As the formation was running, the flags in the eight directions kept shifting and changing positions according to a certain pattern, gathering energy and creating life.
At this point, after five months, the spirit gathering array was completely completed.
Xu Chunniang nodded with satisfaction, waved her hand to put away the formation plate and flags, pushed the door and walked out of the room.
The spirit gathering array plate has been refined, but the Taiyin Dragon Devouring Array plate is slightly more difficult to refine.
She planned to repair the broken array plate in her hand before refining it and accumulate more experience before starting.
In addition to the newly refined spirit gathering array, she also had three third-level arrays in her hand, all from Zhan Yingluo. They were the Five Elements Trapping Array, the Five Elements Defense Array, and the Five Elements Killing Array.
All three array plates are five-element arrays, and the refining techniques of these three array plates are exactly the same, so it is very likely that they were made by the same person.
Among them, the Five Elements Trapping Array and the Five Elements Defense Array suffered varying degrees of damage, and their effectiveness was compromised.
The Five Elements Killing Formation was the most severely damaged. Not only did a very deep crack appear on the formation plate, but the formation flag was also damaged on all four sides, making it completely unusable.
The Five Elements Killing Formation was so badly damaged that she was afraid it might not be repaired. After all, she did not have the complete diagram of the formation.
This thought flashed through Xu Chunniang's mind, but she immediately put it behind her and decided to try to see if it could be repaired first. If it didn't work, then forget it.
She stepped out of the inn and walked into the street, but saw that the usually bustling and prosperous street had become a deserted alley.
The shops that were usually packed with people were now unusually closed. At a glance, there was not a single person in sight on the entire street.
Xu Chunniang frowned slightly. This situation might have caused something unusual to happen.
