Qingyangzi and the other two fell into the cave one after another. Tiezhen put away his iron umbrella, and the swamp mud outside began to flow back, but it was completely blocked outside the formation by the Thousand Illusions Yuling Formation.
Yi Ming walked in front first. His formation skills were the strongest among everyone. Facing a secret cave that might be guarded by a formation, he was naturally the best choice to lead the way.
Behind him, Qingyangzi's flying sword was hovering and circling at his fingertips, ready to deliver a sharp attack at any time. Yujiao Sanren followed behind Qingyangzi, and Tiezhen was at the end of the team.
There was no light at all in the cave, but all of them were at the Nascent Soul stage, so their spiritual senses were not disturbed at all. Yi Ming's feet were suspended an inch in the air, and he did not step on the ground. Firstly, he was worried about whether there might be formation traps on the ground, and secondly, the ground was covered with mud, so he did not want to step on it.
The cave passage twists and turns forward, and seems to be half artificial and half natural. After walking for dozens of feet, the passage begins to slope upward and soon rises above the level of the swamp pool outside. The ground begins to become dry and dust is everywhere.
"There's wind." Qingyangzi said suddenly.
"Yes, it seems there is a passage leading to the outside world ahead." Yi Ming nodded.
The energy fluctuations of the nine formation flags soon merged with the energy of the protective formation. Under the control of Yi Ming's handprints, the power of the formation gradually influenced the energy of the protective formation, weakening the power of the formation nodes of the protective formation.
The correct content is in %六九% book'bar!
"Brother Yi is awesome!"
As they continued to move forward, the breeze in the cave passage became stronger and stronger, and there was even a faint light coming from the front.
Tie Zhen stared with wide eyes. Although he had collected many fragments of martial arts books, unfortunately, he did not have any formation books, so he did not know any formations. "Brother Yi, do you want us to attack the formation nodes?" Qing Yangzi asked.
Although if he was given a little more time, he would definitely be able to break the formation with his own power, but since Qingyangzi and the others could help and break the formation easily, there was no need for him to continue wasting time.
He threw out nine formation flags with a special technique and instantly stuck them on the ground within a range of one to three feet in front of the formation. It seemed messy, but in fact it contained a mystery.
Yi Ming had no interest in doing things that would only make him suffer for the sake of saving face.
At this time, the formation nodes had been completely exposed, and its protective force had been affected by Yi Ming's formation flag and fell to the bottom.
Yi Ming paused, and the seals in his hands changed rapidly. The nine formation flags suddenly lit up, and countless formation patterns emerged in the void, circling around the nine formation flags.
If you are unlucky, then the owner of the cave will die outside and no inheritance will be left in the cave.
"It's also a mid-level Xuan-level formation." Yi Ming stared at the formation in front of him, then said with a smile, "However, since no one is controlling this formation, and so much time has passed, all the nodes of the formation have been exposed. I think I can try to break the formation with the formation, without wasting energy on breaking it with force."
"This should be the mountain to the east of the swamp pool. We should be inside that cliff now." Yuqiao Sanren said after calculating the location.
In just a few breaths, the protective formation that was weakened to the lowest power by Yi Ming's formation was broken by Qing Yangzi and the other two.
"The first formation is to isolate the aura and the swamp pool, and the second formation is to isolate the enemy and strangers." Yi Ming said, "The back should be the residence of the owner of this cave."
Having said this, Yi Ming thought about it again and couldn't help but smile and said, "The owner of the cave can set up two formations like this. Even if he is not a formation master, he must have practiced formations and reached the middle level of Xuan level."
Good luck and inheritance.
Qingyangzi stroked his beard and smiled, "That depends on your luck."
As Yi Ming's hand seals continued to change, the fluctuations of the protective formation became more and more violent, but the formation's aura became weaker and weaker, and the power of the formation's nodes became more and more unstable.
In the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Yi Ming had cast hundreds of formation patterns. The nine formation flags went from being dim at the beginning to being faintly glowing now. The flagpoles emitted bursts of fluorescent light, showing the virtual shadows of the formation patterns. A mysterious aura was also faintly emanating from it. The nine formation flags echoed with each other and soon formed a whole. The fast and slow response of the qi energy gave off a mysterious sense of rhythm.
"Set up the formation!"
The nine formation flags were connected by the formation patterns into a whole. Under the fluctuation of Qi, they were connected to the middle-grade Xuan-level formation further ahead.
A breeze blew by, Yi Ming felt the high concentration of spiritual energy, and then looked into the depths of the cave.
They walked for dozens of feet, and the spiritual energy in the space fluctuated more and more violently. Several people were already prepared in their hearts. Sure enough, when they turned a corner, a half-damaged formation appeared in front of everyone.
Upon hearing this, Qingyangzi and the other two immediately retreated, leaving Yi Ming standing at the front.
Yi Ming stood in front of the formation and stepped repeatedly, making hand seals continuously. He made hand seals one after another, forming transparent shadows of the formation in the void, and then flew into the nine formation flags he had placed in front of him and merged into the formation flags.
Yi Ming stretched out his hand and wiped the magic weapon bag, and nine formation flags appeared in his hand. These were the nine general-purpose formation flags he had recently refined, which were specially used to break formations.
The three of them looked at each other, and Qingyangzi moved the sword in his hand. The Qingguang Xingsha Sword flew out, and with just one swing of the sword, two nodes of the formation guarding the formation were destroyed.
"What level is this formation?" Qingyangzi asked.
Although it is said to be half-damaged, in fact, the main body and power of the formation are still mostly there and have not lost its effect. It's just that due to the passage of time, the fluctuations of the formation are becoming increasingly difficult to hide, and its power is gradually leaking out. The amplitude of the spiritual energy fluctuations is extremely large, so it can be emitted from far away, allowing people outside the cave to clearly sense it. It was also because of this that Wan Qingying discovered this cave.
The glow of the protective formation flickered a few times, and the spiritual energy fluctuations spread out, showing an attitude of dying struggle, and then it suddenly disappeared like a popped soap bubble.
Tie Zhen and Yu Jiao San Ren also took action respectively. One of them held the Hunyuan White Jade Sword which was specially used to break restrictions, and the power of the protective formation had the least effect on him. The other one summoned the iron umbrella, and twelve flying blades spun and flew in the air, blowing up all the formation nodes along the way.
"Go!"
"Almost." Qingyangzi nodded, "We are almost there."
This time they only walked a dozen feet and turned two corners before they arrived at their destination.
"It seems we are lucky." Qingyangzi sighed.
Because on the stone bed facing them, there was a skeleton sitting cross-legged.
