After deciphering the runes on the ground, Shu Jianyue discovered that although they seemed similar to those on the stone pillar, they were quite different.
The one on that stone pillar is more profound and complex.
Thinking that Chong Jiu would need to recover his cultivation to subdue the people here, he realized that he would need to do so.
Otherwise, with only half a level of cultivation, what can I do?
She couldn't change the runes here and didn't want to destroy them for the time being, so she wanted to try to inscribe a rune array that could suppress the power of these runes.
The so-called rune array is a combination of talismans and arrays to create a new rune array.
To break this rune array, one needs to be proficient in both talismans and array formations.
Shu Jianyue happens to be able to do all of these; while she can't be said to be an expert in formations, she can certainly create them with ease.
Her skill in making talismans was only slightly inferior to that in crafting weapons.
Chong Jiu walked to her side and watched her inscribe runes.
After she finished carving the piece in her hand, he took out several pieces of fine iron and gave them to her, saying, "This will work even better."
Shu Jianyue's eyes lit up when she saw the fine iron in his hand, and she took it and started carving.
Chongjiu tossed the already engraved talisman plaque directly to Kongxuan.
Without a second thought, Kong Xuan handed it to Jiang Yiqing.
Now that Jiang Yiqing no longer has the Servant Seal, he naturally has no resistance to the suppression of this magic.
He is now no different from those who came after him.
Jiang Yiqing stared blankly at the talisman in her hand, then looked at Kong Xuan and murmured, "Why did you give it to me? Don't you want to use it yourself?"
“My cultivation level is lower than yours, you can keep it.”
Kong Xuan glanced at him. "Stop talking nonsense. Here, take it." He was waiting for the next better one.
Didn't you hear someone say that the effect of carving with refined iron is better?
Jiang Yiqing's attention wasn't on that at the time, so when Kong Xuan gave him the talisman, he was incredibly moved.
With the success of the first one, the second one was much faster.
Once Shu Jianyue had finished depicting one character, she passed it on to Chong Jiu.
Seeing that Kong Xuan had given the first one to Jiang Yiqing, Chong Jiu then passed the second test subject to him.
Kong Xuan accepted it this time and hung it on his waist.
Seeing this, Jiang Yiqing also hung the same piece around her waist.
After Shu Jianyue finished engraving the talisman plaques for everyone, Jiang Jingyi arrived with the members of the Yi tribe.
The elder followed behind her with a pale face.
Although Jiang Yuan's expression was somber, there was a hint of a smile in his eyes.
He had just received a message that the venerable one above would arrive soon.
Unfortunately, the jade pendant shattered after receiving the news.
When the venerable one arrives, Jiang Jingyi and the others will have to stay here, and because of his merits, he is very likely to become the next clan leader.
Who says the chieftain of a tribe has to be a woman? Those women just have one more function; they are better than the men in other aspects.
He heard quite a few things from the people who came in from outside.
It's not necessarily better outside than here; it's just that there are more people and more land.
Several of the women who came in didn't want to leave, which means this place is better than outside.
There were two ungrateful people who kept thinking about leaving.
Jiang Jingyi walked up to Chong Jiu and said with a smile, "Your Excellency, these are all my people."
Chong Jiu looked around, then his brow furrowed as he saw Jiang Yuan, whose eyes were full of calculation. "Those I have pointed to, stand behind me."
Chong Jiu looked at the people and pointed them out one by one.
There should have been eight or nine thousand people in total, but in the end, only fifty-six remained, including the Grand Elder and Jiang Yuan.
The Grand Elder's situation is understandable, since he has always been against going abroad.
But Jiang Yuan has never shown any signs of this, so why is he still here?
Jiang Yuan asked, "Venerable One, why have you excluded us?" Had you discovered something?
On second thought, the venerable one above is coming soon, so it doesn't matter whether he notices it or not.
The Grand Elder also looked at Chong Jiu, but he was not as optimistic as Jiang Yuan.
Once these tribesmen left the Abyss, the Abyss Tribe scattered.
Ultimately, he was the root of the clan, and even if he wanted to claim credit, he didn't want the Abyss Clan to disintegrate.
Chong Jiu glanced at them, then looked at Jiang Jingyi and said, "We don't need the rest of these people. They have too many thoughts. I'll remove their service marks from them later."
“Once the servitude mark is removed, the suppression here will take effect on them.”
Have you figured out how to take them out?
Jiang Jingyi nodded, "The way to get out is to activate the formation in our Yi clan. We can use the formation to get to the island outside, but I don't know how to leave the island."
"Jiang Jingyi, do you know what will happen if you activate that formation?" the Grand Elder demanded.
Jiang Jingyi glanced at him. "What could possibly happen? How many people have managed to escape through formations over the years?"
"Isn't this exactly how Jiang Yiqing got you to get it out?"
The elder was speechless; he thought she didn't know.
The tribespeople all said that they had fallen into the lake in their territory.
Chong Jiu glanced at them and said, "I'll handle how to leave the island. You just need to take them out." With that, he began to remove their service marks.
He couldn't possibly remove the service marks from each of them one by one; that would take forever.
Therefore, they were divided into five groups, and Jiang Jingyi was the first to step forward. Those who were close to her and supported her naturally stood behind her.
The Grand Elder and Jiang Yuan had been thinking about removing the service marks from each of them one by one.
Unexpectedly, moxibustion could remove the blemishes from so many people at once!
This startled him greatly, and he wondered, "Why hasn't the Venerable One from above arrived yet?"
But their anxiety was useless; the jade tablet they had contacted was broken, and unless another one was sent from above, they could forget about contacting anyone there again.
Shu Jianyue looked around and, seeing that there was nothing more for her to do, walked down the steps and into the street.
Seeing this, Jiang Yuan rolled his eyes and followed.
Yu Chuan raised an eyebrow and followed behind him.
Shu Jianyue walked around looking around, and she had to admit, the Yi tribe's architecture was quite unique.
The carved beams and painted rafters are quite interesting. They look like crows, but upon closer inspection, you'll find they have three legs, so they are three-legged golden crows.
The residents of the Yi tribe had all gone to the main square in the center, so there were few people on the streets.
Everyone who passed by glanced at her.
Shu Jianyue didn't mind and walked slowly, stopping frequently, until she reached the end of the street.
At the end of this street is a small lake. It doesn't look very big, but you can tell from its dark, deep color that the water is very deep.
Jiang Yuan leaned closer and said with a smile, "Venerable One, this is a forbidden area for our Yi clan, because many people have drowned here."
Seeing her face made his heart beat faster. If he hadn't been so determined, he would have already rushed forward and hugged her.
From the moment he saw her, his eyes would involuntarily drift towards her.
So when she left the main square, he immediately followed her.
Shu Jianyue glanced at him and raised an eyebrow. "Someone drowned?"
Can cultivators really drown?
As if they had found common ground, Jiang Yuan began to tell the story.
