Chapter 722 â Double line
Only when good things are left in oneâs own nest would one be safe. The Heaven-Shaken Sect back then was no exception!
The entire Heaven-Shaking Peak had been run by the Heaven-Shaken Sect for thousands of years, and had been attracted by countless spirit veins and mines over the surrounding area. This was one of the true reserves of the Heaven-Shaken Sect, and it could even be said that there wauge mine surrounded by all kinds of land veins!
In the first round of raids, the most important mission of the various sects of Yuzhou wasnât to loot all kinds of treasures in the Heaven-Shaking Peak, and wasnât even about looting all sorts of heritage troves, but rather, to gather all sorts of veins in the surrounding regions. This was one of the main reasons why after the activation of the forbidden array, the Heaven-Shaking Peak collapsed, and was also one of the reasons why today, when the ancestor of the Profound Origin Sect reconstructed the Heaven-Shaking Peak, the main peak of the Heaven-Shaking Peak was shorter than it was before by half, and it was also the reason why the ancestor of the Profound Origin Sect still occupied the Heaven-Shaking Peakâs own dao field after being raided by the various factions of the Yuzhou for two rounds.
Unless they had gone through many years of exploration, no one would know how many lodes the Heaven-Shaking Peak and its surroundings had concealed. Those who were led away by the various sects were the easiest to discover, and as for how many were deeper underground, even the Heaven-Shaken Sect himself might not be able to find out.
Even if the were to become more and more prosperous in the past few thousand years, and even up to the day before they were chased away from the Heaven-Shaking Peak, there was no doubt that their strength would be the strongest in the entire Yuzhou.
Just like the crystal mine that Yang Junshan had discovered. Even though it had low and middle grade ore reserves, the power of the ore deposit was still producing crystals!
Perhaps at the peak of Heaven-Shaken Sectâs power, such a vein was insignificant to the Heaven-Shaken Sect, so even if the Heaven-Shaken Sectâs Great Divine Cultivator were to pull it to the vicinity of the Heaven-Shaking Peak, it could only be buried deep underground. In the end, they could only draw a few lines on this scroll that had been sealed for an unknown period of time, and then they would leave it at the back of their minds, perhaps the original intention of the Great Divine Cultivator was to stay here for the future, but later on, the Heaven-Shaken Sectâs cultivators were to extort the entire Yuxian under the lamplight.
Setting up a formation underground was undoubtedly a challenge for Yang Junshan, not to mention that it was under the watchful eye of a Dao Ancestor.
Perhaps it was because of this pressure that ignited Yang Junshanâs fighting spirit. With his mastery of the Earth Escape Spirit Art, Yang Junshan relied on the powerful nine man true energy in his body to work underground and complete the formation before the ancestor of the Mystical Yuan Sect could use the vein to reconstruct and solidify the Heaven-Shaking Peak.
âGo, quickly leave this place!â
Yang Junhao and Yan Qinxi rode one of his arms each, bringing along a light with them as they fled towards the south. When the three of them had just disappeared into the horizon, the large formation beneath the ground was immediately activated.
âReturn to the Xishan Village first?â Yang Junshan asked tentatively.
Even though Yan Qinxiâs personality was cheerful and generous, for a moment, she was a little embarrassed, but she quickly pinched Yang Junshanâs arm and said: âYou actually asked me that? Shouldnât you be the one to directly invite me? â
Even though Yang Junshanâs body had been successful in training, he nearly cried out from the bone-piercing pain, and immediately said: âInvitation, of course weâre inviting, and itâs a sincere invitation at that.â
Yang Junhao said in disdain: âFourth brother, we should be the ones to take the initiative in this kind of matter. Why do I feel that your attitude towards me has long been there, but you still bashfully want Big Sis Yan to force me to ask again?
Yang Junshan had already used the source of his dantian to slowly replenish his excessive true essence a moment ago. After hearing what was said, he immediately escaped from the twoâs support, and hit Yang Junhao on the head with a chestnut, saying, âWhat do you know!â
Yang Junhao snickered: âHehe, brother, maybe I know more than you!â
Yang Junhao looked back and forth between Yang Junshan and Yan Qinxi, immediately enraging the two of them.
âThose of a young age do not learn!â Yang Junshan acted as though he wanted to fight.
âYour broâs two eyes are so annoying. Do you need me to help you teach him a lesson?â Yan Qinxiâs eyes curved up once again, a cold light actually flickering in his squinted eyes.
Yang Junhao was so scared that he directly rode on the light horse and escaped, leaving two people behind to slowly escape.
Even though Yang Junshan had recovered, it was not convenient for him to control the light at the moment. If Yan Qinxi wanted to take care of him, he naturally wouldnât have the time to chase after the Yang Junhao who escaped first.
Without Yang Junhao to play along with them, the two of them were left at a loss as to what to say.
In the end, Yang Junshan was the first to break the silence. He thought for a while and said, âOld Thirteen might be right.
After hearing Yang Junshanâs words, she just smiled faintly, and then concentrated on controlling the light to escape. Yang Junshan stood beside her, and from time to time, he would look at her face from the side, but suddenly realised that the woman in front of her, was actually more impressive than the one in front.
âNo matter what, you have to inform the Tan Xi Sect that youâre safe and sound!â
Yan Qinxi thought, and after a moment of hesitation, nodded her head.
Yang Junshan laughed: âDonât worry, if you donât want to leave, unless itâs the Daofather who acts personally, no one can bring you out of Xishan Village!â
After Yan Qinxi sheard this, he finally regained her usual cheerful mood. âHeheheâ he laughed: âSpiritual Master Jun Shan is powerful, I heard from your cousin that the Spiritual Master Jun Shan was using her power in the Yu Cheng to suppress Lin Canghai and Zhang Yueming by herself. She was so angry âŠâ
Yan Qinxi noticed that something was amiss and she immediately shut her mouth, while Yang Junshan who was at the side immediately became spirited, and joked: âWhy are you getting angry? For her? For whom? âWhoâs a beauty?â
Yan Qinxi was staring at Yang Junshan until her pretty face turned hot, suddenly, her natural instinct flared up and she extended her leg to kick Yang Junshan, just in case Yang Junshan reacted quickly and dodged her kick.
Yan Qinxi gouged him out fiercely and said: âIf you continue to talk so glibly, do you believe that I wonât throw you down here?â
Within the Yu Cheng, the Adept Chang Li that had already returned almost at the same time as Yan Dazhi received the news that Yan Qinxi had safely escaped danger and was heading for the Mengyu County, however, both of them revealed a trace of a smile at the same time. The only difference was, other than that smile, Yan Dazhi also felt as thougeavy burden had been lifted from his shoulders.
However, the two of them did not leave the Yu Cheng immediately. In fact, most of the cultivators from the various sects in the Yuzhou had yet to leave the Yu Cheng, and practically everyone was attracted by Grandmaster Xuan Yuanâs efforts to reconstruct the Heaven-Shaking Peak, so there was not much opportunity for them to personally witness him using the sacred art, but more importantly, the various sects wanted to know the purpose of why Patriarch Xuan Yuan was in charge of the Heaven-Shaking Peak. After all, although the Yuzhou had three Dao Patriarchs in charge, they acted more like guardians.
Seeing Yan Dazhi rushing over, the Adept Chang Li immediately asked in a low voice: âHow is it, is there any news?â
Yan Dazhi said in a deep voice, âIt is almost certain that the Rogue Cultivator Alliance is backed by the Xuan Yuan Dao Ancestral, Lin Canghai is currently leading the Rogue Cultivator Alliance to the Heaven-Shaking Peak!â
âCrack.â The pair of jade eggs in Adept Chang Liâs hands instantly shattered into powder, but a look of helplessness appeared on his face as he sighed: âFrom now on, Yuzhou will be troubled once again!â
Yan Dazhi hesitated for a moment, and then said: âI believe the Sect Leader should already know of the news of my daughter escaping danger, right?â
Adept Chang Liâs expression regained its calmness, he nodded and said: âThatâs right, Taoist Little Yang has already informed you the first thing. She is now a guest at the Yang family in Mengyu County, you can be at ease!â
Yan Dazhi shook his head: âThis disciple is not reporting this matter, but actually sent my daughteiece of Message Talisman, it is about Taoist Little Yang telling her about the news, the matter of Alien Cultivator preparing to destroy Yuzhouâs entire clan.â
The Adept Chang Li was slightly startled as he said: âI, little Taoist Yang, have actually specifically mentioned this to the various sects in Heaven-Shaking Peak. Could it be that it is true?â
âThis kind of thing, itâs better to believe itâs true than not!â
Adept Chang Li nodded, and said: âThatâs right. Right, what other sects and powers do Yu Cheng have left?â
Yan Dazhi said: The people from the Zhuge family have already left, there is no need to mention the people from the Heaven-Shaken Sect. The people from the Yuxiao Sect and the Purple Sun Sect have also left.
The Adept Chang Li asked in surprise: âIncluding Yang Junshan, all of the five great formation masters of Yuzhou have left?â
After the Adept Chang Li had reminded him, Yan Dazhi also said, âThe Purple Sun Sectâs Daoist Master has been following the Yuxiao Sect all this time and An Taiqing has also been very close to Brother Zhuge!â
The Adept Chang Li sighed: âWithout a doubt, if these five people did not obtain the greatest benefit in the Heaven-Shaking Peak, they had probably caused the greatest disaster in the Heaven-Shaking Peak, so they all anxiously rushed back to their own nests. At the very least, the forbidden flood that covered the entire region in the Heaven-Shaking Peak was definitely done by someone other than Yang Junshan, if not for that forbidden flood weakening the entire forbidden array, Iâm afraid that Daoist Xuan Yuan would not be able to break into the forbidden array and reconstruct the Heaven-Shaking Peak!â
Yan Dazhi did not participate in this trip to the Heaven-Shaking Peak, so when he heard this, he couldnât help but ask: âWhy canât it be Yang Junshan?â
Adept Chang Li glanced at him, and said: âBecause when forbidden flood erupted, Lin Canghai, Qi Yang, and I were together with him!â
Yan Dazhi thought for a while, then said: âDuring this trip to the Heaven-Shaking Peak, every sect had nearly lost their martial arts realm formation masters, while the other sects had a few who had low cultivation bases that returned with heavy injuries. Since thatâs the case, do we leak the news of who ignited the forbidden flood? â
âLetâs wait first!â
