When the first thunderbolt fell, Fengjiu came out of the cave. She went to the several spirit gathering arrays in the barrier and took a look. Finally, her sight fell on the spirit gathering array with surging spiritual energy around it.
The person inside was Duan Ye. His talent was the most outstanding among the others, so it was not surprising that he was the first to advance. She came to his spirit gathering formation and sat cross-legged to protect him.
At this time, some monks in the forest outside quickly found that place due to the surge of clouds in the sky and the striking of thunder. However, when they arrived there, they were shocked to find that this area was actually covered with formations and barriers.
Many of them were walking outside, clearly moving forward. Seeing that the place where the thunder struck was just in front of them, they found that after they walked forward, they turned back and returned to the original place after a while.
"Hiss! Who set up this formation? It's different from the ordinary maze formation."
"I couldn't break it even if I walked in. It was right in front of me, but I couldn't get inside. The person who set up the formation must be an expert."
"There are people who have advanced here? I'm really curious about who is the one who has advanced here. It's a pity that no one can break this formation."
The people outside were discussing, and although they were curious and wanted to know who had advanced inside, no one could enter the formation. That was right, if someone could break it, they wouldn't have stayed outside for so long, and no one had walked through this formation in this area.
If it weren't for the clouds and thunder in the sky today, they probably wouldn't have discovered this place.
After some casual cultivators realized that they couldn't enter the formation, they turned around a few times and left. Since they couldn't get in and couldn't see, there was no point in staying here.
Some people thought that this person's advancement might be an opportunity for them. So they looked around and thought of a way to go in and take a look. Even if they couldn't get in, it wouldn't hurt to disrupt the advancement of the person inside.
However, just when they were thinking that since there was no way to get in, they might as well use fire attack, an old man among the wandering cultivators walked out.
"I can break this formation." The old man, dressed in a gray robe, stroked his gray beard with one hand and looked at the people around him with a bit of pride.
"Can you crack it? Seriously?" someone asked.
"Of course, this formation is just a maze formation with some minor changes. Others may not understand it, but I have studied formations for many years and I am good at setting up and breaking formations. I have just walked into this formation and if I say I can break it, then of course I can break it." The old man spoke with confidence.
When the people around saw it, they immediately said, "Since we can break it, what are you waiting for? Break it quickly! The person inside is advancing, and this is the best time to disrupt his advancement. What are you still hesitating about? In this place, even a random person has a lot of treasures. If the person here dies, we can divide his things equally."
Hearing this, the old man nodded and said, "You can ask me to break the formation, but you have to promise to give me at least one or two magic weapons. If that person has elixirs or liquid medicine, they must also belong to me."
After hearing this, the group of casual cultivators looked at each other and nodded: "No problem! We'll do as you say!" They probably agreed, but in the end, would this man really be able to leave alive with his things
