Having made their decision, the two didn’t hesitate.
They retreated in the direction they came from.
In fact, the moment the formation broke, Su Jingzhen had already used his divine consciousness to probe the general location of the exit.
“Let’s find out exactly where we are first, and then figure out how to proceed.
Maybe we’ve been teleported far away by this void passage.”
Luo Yuebai nodded.
As they walked in the direction they came from, Luo Yuebai noticed that the spiritual energy weakened as they moved towards the outer perimeter.
However, this was only relative.
The spiritual energy within the entire space was comparable to, if not stronger than, that of the Evil Moon Sect’s headquarters that she was familiar with.
At this point, the two of them hadn’t walked for long, only a distance of less than three hundred zhang, when they seemed to reach another dead end.Su Jingzhen reached out and patted the front, which was a solid stone wall.
“Yuebai, step back.
This must be the exit, but it’s sealed.
We can only break through with brute force.”
Su Jingzhen patted the stone wall again and said to Luo Yuebai.
The next moment, the black brick in his hand glowed with a fierce black light.
At that time, four figures stood on the top of a mountain.
“Second Brother, are your two formations really able to deal with the two of them?
I have a bad feeling.
It is said that Su Jingzhen performed brilliantly in the Dantai Ruins this time, and his combat power is not comparable to that of an ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator.
There are even rumors that his combat strength has already reached the Soul Formation stage.
We’ve prepared for so long, don’t let our efforts go to waste in the end.”
This person was none other than one of the four remaining Six Heavenly Generals under the command of Second Elder.
The speaker was a stocky man built like a tower.
He looked at the white-robed scholar in front of him and asked.
This sturdy man was codenamed ‘Mountain’, and the middle-aged scholar was the mastermind behind this event, ‘Forest’.
Upon hearing this, Forest smiled slightly: “You’ve all seen this spirit vein, right? It’s a spirit vein that produces liquid spirit energy.
And the liquid spirit energy has already accumulated into a lake.
Originally, this would have been a great fortune for us, a great opportunity for advancement. If we reported this spirit vein to the sect, our status would probably be on par with many people in the Elders Council. Ꞧ𝙖𝐍ȏʙЁṧ
Even if we didn’t report it, if we just relied on that spiritual avenue, the four of us who are practicing inside would probably be able to break through to the Soul Formation level quickly.
But what’s the point? We, the six brothers, have risen from humble beginnings. Now that the eldest and fifth brothers have fallen…
This revenge must be avenged. My heart is restless, and I doubt that I can achieve great things in this life.
And with this spiritual vein as the foundation, the formation we have built…
Even if it’s a cultivator of the Soul Formation level, I’m afraid that in time he’ll be blasted to death by the thunder and fire within.
“Even if the Thunderfire Killing Formation is broken, they will never be able to break through the second layer of the trapping formation.
“As long as they can’t break out of the formation, the spirit energy from this spirit vein will be enough to maintain the formation for thousands or even tens of thousands of years.
We’ll trap them to death!”
As he spoke, Forest’s voice was filled with arrogance.
However, before the other three could respond, a loud bang suddenly echoed from the mountaintop they had been watching intently.
Countless rocks shot out from a cliff face that seemed to have been sliced by a sword.
The arrogant smile on Forest’s face instantly froze.
“This… this is impossible!
Impossible, absolutely impossible!
Even if there is a Soul Formation level cultivator, we may not be able to trap them for a thousand years, we can still trap them for atleast three or five days or even a month.”
After muttering to himself, Forest rubbed his eyes frantically.
However, the dust and smoke were still billowing, and a gaping hole had appeared on the cliff in front of him.
Two figures burst out of it.
The facts were right in front of his eyes, and Forest had no choice but to believe them.
It had taken less than two hours from the time Su Jingzhen and Luo Yuebai were trapped into that space through the black hole passage to the time they escaped from the formation.
This completely overturned the understanding of Forest and the other three.
“The formation built by Second Brother shouldn’t have any problems. Could it be that Su Jingzhen is still pretending to be weak, still hiding his strength?”
Thunder, who had a rather rugged face, also spoke in shock.
“Let’s go!
No matter what the situation is inside, since the two of them are alive, we have to expose this spiritual vein.”
The one who was most incredulous was Forest At this moment, he was aslo the first to regain his composure.
When he saw Su Jingzhen and Luo Yuebai emerge from the black hole and stand on their flying instruments in the void, he immediately said so.
The four of them then quietly left without attracting the attention of Su Jingzhen and Luo Yuebai.
“This… this place still seems to be on Clear Wind Mountain!
When I was looking for monsters, I think I came here before.”
Su Jingzhen and Luo Yuebai rode their flying instruments to a high altitude and looked around, and Su Jingzhen’s expression showed a hint of surprise.
Back then, when Su Jingzhen’s mouth was watering, he searched everywhere for higher-level monsters. He had practically explored most of Clear Wind Mountain.
Clear Wind Mountain was huge, and there were no less than a hundred places with cliffs like this.
However, a cultivator’s memory is amazing. As long as they were there, they wouldn’t make a mistake.
Without waiting for Luo Yuebai’s response, Su Jingzhen continued, “This place is deep inside Clear Wind Mountain, but it’s not far from the canyon where it’s located.
It’s probably only about ten miles away.”
At this, Luo Yuebai’s expression was once again shocked.
“In that case, this place is also not far from our Linjiang branch of the Evil Moon Sect.
This place should be frequently visited by cultivators, but during the years the Huayang Sect occupied this area, they didn’t discover this spirit vein.
We have even passed by here several times without noticing anything unusual. It’s really strange.
I think the Six Heavenly Generals are watching us somewhere right now.
Maybe they already know that we’ve escaped. If that’s the case, it will be impossible to hide this spirit vein.
This is even bigger than what happened at Dantai Ruins. Once the news gets out, even with the support of the main sect, we won’t be able to escape.”
Luo Yuebai clearly understood what this massive spirit vein meant better than Su Jingzhen.
There was even a hint of panic in her eyes.
But at the same time, both Su Jingzhen and Luo Yuebai shared a common confusion.
Linjiang City was considered a rather wild place in Qingzhou, and most of the major sects looked down on it. The spiritual energy wasn’t particularly scarce, but it was also quite average.
But here, there was a spiritual vein of this magnitude.
Normally, with this spiritual vein, the spiritual energy within a radius of five hundred miles around Linjiang City should be quite dense.
It should even be among the best in the entire Qingzhou region.
Based on their current understanding, they seemed to be unable to solve this mystery.
At that moment, a slightly surprised voice suddenly rang out in Su Jingzhen’s ear.
“That place you went to earlier… I have a strange feeling of familiarity.
I feel quite fond of it, a feeling of familiarity.
But I can’t quite remember what it is, as if an important memory has disappeared from here.”
Upon hearing this, Su Jingzhen’s heart skipped a beat.
The voice belonged to Bai Suzhen, who was talking to him telepathically.
