The old man in gray didn't understand why so many people gathered at the door of the formation shop in the corner of the imperial city instead of knocking on the door and asking the boss to open it and go in.
But he wouldn't just stand there stupidly, he went up and knocked on the door.
He had just taken two steps when he was stopped by the Golden Horn King: "Fellow Daoist, since the boss hasn't opened the door yet, it means something is wrong. If you are not in a hurry, why not wait here? If you are in a hurry, you can also go to other houses first."
The Golden Horned King spoke to the old man in gray in a kind tone.
The old man in gray took a look at these people and asked, "Who are you?"
The Golden Horned King said, "I am a guest too."
The old man in gray said, "My young lady is in a hurry to buy a special array disk. She has already gone to many places. If it is not available here, we have to go to other places to look for it. How can we have the time to wait here for him to open the door? Moreover, as a businessman, how can he not open the door at this time? What is the status of my young lady? How can she wait here?"
The old man in gray spoke frankly, and his words and deeds showed that he had a great background and noble status. It was impossible for him to stand here stupidly and wait for the formation shop to open before going in to buy things.
The Golden Horned King said, "Then please do as you please."
Since the other party was in a hurry, they would not stop him. Moreover, King Jinjiao and others believed that the teacher must have left some defensive measures for themselves since he opened a shop in this busy city.
The Golden Horned King stepped back, and Xiao Huang also looked at the old man in gray.
The old man in gray walked up and knocked on the shop door, but after a long time, there was no movement from inside.
The gray-robed old man was puzzled and said, "Hmm?"
Could it be that the boss was not at home? He used his spiritual sense to investigate and found that there was indeed a breath of life inside.
Why don't you open the door when you hear someone knocking at home? Are you pretending to be dead?
The old man in gray was slightly angry and used his cultivation to transmit sound. The sound waves were transmitted in, and the souls of ordinary foundation-building cultivators were shaken when they heard it.
"Fellow Daoist, there are guests coming to your door, why don't you come and open the door?"
The voice traveled inside for a long time, and the old man in gray waited at the door for a while. He was sure that the person inside definitely heard what he said, but after half a day, there was still no movement.
The old man in gray became even angrier.
A formation shop in a corner, pretending to be mysterious, is it okay to show off here? He couldn't help but increase the sound waves, turning it from a sound transmission into a slightly aggressive attack.
"Boss! Open the door!"
This time, Lu Yuan finally replied.
He was concentrating on carving an eleventh-order formation plate. The plate in his hand was only half completed. When it came to the most troublesome moment, Lu Yuan originally wanted to devote himself to it, but he was interrupted by this gray-clothed old man. He originally wanted to ignore him and let him leave, but he didn't expect that this guy's voice was getting louder and louder.
Lu Yuan felt a little annoyed and casually dismissed him, "The store is closed today and we won't be doing business. You guys can go now."
He opened the formation shop just to make formations and sell some of the formation products he made, not really expecting to make money.
He is busy now, so how can he entertain the so-called guests? Lu Yuan directly asked him to leave and closed the store today.
The old man in gray was stunned when he heard this.
What does this mean? People are in the store, but customers are outside. You said you were closing the store? Was this intentional or accidental? The old man in gray had never been turned away like this before, and he angrily said, "You are shameless. Do you believe I will smash your stall?"
It was obvious at first glance that the man in gray was of a noble status. The lady he followed was from an aristocratic family and her dress and aura were extraordinary.
How could he endure being humiliated in such a small place? The old man in gray immediately prepared to attack.
Just then, Wang Yue and his wife heard the noise and came out to dissuade them.
"Senior, senior! No, no, no, don't be angry. This young man doesn't know his place and has offended you. Don't bother with him. We apologize on his behalf and on behalf of you all."
The gray-clothed old man glanced at Wang Yue and his wife and said, "Who are you? Do you have the right to speak here?"
At this time, the sound of a sword was heard from the sky. It was Wang Qingying from Beizhou Academy who had returned.
Wang Qingying saw her parents step forward to dissuade the troublemakers, but were instead shouted away by them. Wang Qingying was furious. After all, they were her parents. How could they be so rude?
Wang Qingying's cold voice sounded: "Who are you? Are you causing trouble here? Don't you know that this is the imperial capital of the Chen Kingdom?"
The old man in gray and the young girl in green looked at Wang Qingying. Feeling Wang Qingying's cultivation level, the old man in gray looked down on her.
Xiao Xiao Jin Dan should be a student of the Beizhou Academy here, but it is too much to be restricted with such a small level of cultivation.
The old man in gray snorted coldly and released a powerful aura, which directly shook Wang Qingying off the flying sword. Even the golden elixir in Wang Qingying's body was shaking.
Wang Qingying fell to the ground with a blue face. Wang Yue and his wife were shocked and hurried to check.
"Qingying, are you okay?"
Wang Qingying said: "I'm fine, this person has a very high level of cultivation!"
Just from the first encounter, Wang Qingying could basically judge that the other party's realm was extremely high, at least above the Spirit Transformation Realm, and most likely at the Void Refinement Realm.
This level of Void Refining Great Power, if placed in the Chen Kingdom's Imperial Capital, could be on par with the dean of the Beizhou Academy, how could he appear on the streets like this? Wang Qingying asked, "What is your identity, and why are you here?"
The grey-clothed old man said, "You don't need to know who I am. Even if the dean of your Beizhou Academy comes, he has no right to ask about me. Since you are a student of Beizhou Academy, I won't bother with you today. Go aside."
Wang Qingying knew that these people had extraordinary backgrounds, but she remembered Lu Yuan's previous methods and couldn't help but kindly remind him: "Senior, the owner of this formation shop also has an extraordinary background, so it's better not to mess around."
The old man in gray sneered: "The shop owner in this small place also has a background? I want to see who he is."
The old man in gray was disdainful in his heart. He knew that the power behind him was so terrifying that even the core high-level figures of the Northern Continent Alliance had to give him face. Big figures? No matter how big they were, could they be bigger than the big figure behind him? The old man didn't bother with Wang Yue and his wife and Wang Qingying, and told them to go aside and not get in the way.
Then they prepared to force their way into the store.
Just now Wang Qingying said that the boss of this place has an extraordinary background and must be a man of some ability. There might be something the young lady is looking for inside. Since the boss won't open the door, he can only use some rough means. The worst that can happen is that he will have to pay some money for repairing the door afterwards.
The old man in gray took a step forward, releasing a terrifying aura of emptiness, and crashed directly into the door of the shop.
What door can stop the Refining Void Master from attacking? However, with a muffled sound, something unexpected happened to the gray-clothed old man. The seemingly ordinary door of the shop was not damaged at all. The Refining Void attack he had just released was bounced away by something before it even touched the door.
Gray-robed old man: "What's going on?"
He was a little surprised. What was that power just now? The gray-clothed old man didn't believe it, and slapped him again with his backhand, this time a little more seriously.
The power of this palm already carried some strength of refining the void, but this palm was pressed in the void, and before it could touch the shop, it was blocked outside by a layer of void wall that suddenly appeared outside the shop, and then suddenly bounced back.
Then, a terrifying formation took shape.
"Formation? Defensive formation?" The old man in gray and the girl in green were both surprised. They didn't expect that this unremarkable corner shop would have such a formation.
As a formation shop, it is not uncommon to set up defensive formations in the store. After all, the store owner is a formation master himself, and it is normal for him to set up some formations to protect his own shop.
However, a formation with this kind of aura... is truly extraordinary!
The old man in gray couldn't help but gasp when he looked at the defensive formation.
"What a terrifying defense."
This formation could actually block the attack of a Void Refining Master? And the most terrifying thing was that this was not an ordinary defensive formation that could resist a Void Refining Master.
The scary thing is that this formation not only blocked his attacks, but also his attacks didn't even cause any ripples. The level of this formation was extremely terrifying.
The old man in gray took a deep breath. It seemed like there was something there, but he didn't believe it.
"I want to see how powerful this formation is!"
The old man in gray turned over his palm, and a mini square seal appeared in his palm. The square seal was shaped like a small mountain, very unique, and exuded an ancient and heavy atmosphere.
Then the old man in gray threw the seal in his hand out.
"go!"
The square seal was only the size of a palm, but at this moment it burst out with terrifying power, and it crashed into the formation like a Mount Sumeru.
This thing is the magic weapon of the old man in gray, the Green Mountain Seal.
The Green Mountain Seal is of immeasurable weight, and its power when used to impact is extremely terrifying. Even ordinary cultivators at the ninth level of the Refinement Void Realm would shudder at the sight of it. The old man in gray is confident that even if he is facing a powerful being in the upper fusion realm, if he uses the Green Mountain Seal to attack, the powerful being in the fusion realm will have to temporarily avoid him.
But its disadvantage is also great, that is, the Qingshan Seal is too slow. It has great power but is easily unable to hit the opponent when fighting in the same realm, let alone fighting across realms.
So theory is just theory after all. If a real fight comes, the gray-clothed old man's Qingshan Seal may not even be able to touch the corner of the clothes of the powerful man in the combined state.
But at this moment, the defensive formation used to deal with this formation shop is enough.
Because this defensive formation would not run away, he was confident that he could break it with this one strike.
However, there is often a huge difference between imagination and reality. At the moment when the powerful Qingshan Seal and the void wall composed of defensive formations collided with each other, the strong collision that the gray-clothed old man imagined did not occur.
Instead, a strange scene occurred. The Qingshan Seal that the old man in gray was proud of was swallowed up by the defensive formation at the moment of impact.
And the moment it was swallowed, the Qingshan Seal lost contact with the gray-clothed old man, as if it had been absorbed by the formation.
The old man in gray was horrified. How could this happen? What kind of formation was this? The old man in gray thought that he had seen a lot of big scenes and was well-informed, but he had never seen such a strange formation.
Isn't this a defensive formation? Logically, it only has defensive capabilities, so how can it also have the ability to swallow magic weapons?
Even his own Qingshan Seal could be swallowed? Damn it! The gray-clothed old man was anxious. He had spent a huge price to get this magic weapon, which he had always regarded as his lifelong magic weapon. Now that the magic weapon was lost and even the connection with him was cut off, the gray-clothed old man was anxious and chased after it directly.
"Give me back my magic weapon!"
The old man in gray turned into a gray light and crashed into the defensive formation, reaching out to grab it.
The young girl in green behind him saw this and shouted, "Elder Chen, be careful!"
But it was too late. The old man in gray above was swallowed up like the magic weapon the moment he touched the formation and directly entered the inner space.
The girl in green was shocked.
What kind of weird formation is this? Elder Chen is a very powerful elder in their family, and his cultivation is almost at the peak of the Refining Void Realm.
This formation can not only swallow up Elder Chen’s natal magic weapon, but it can also swallow up a peak Void Refinement Peak cultivator in one gulp?
What level is this?
The girl in green has been very interested in the art of formations since she was young. It is not easy for her to become a fourth-grade formation master at such a young age.
I thought I was a young formation master, but after seeing this formation today, I realized that what I learned was just the basics. The formations I had set up before were not good enough in front of this formation and were not worthy of being put on the stage.
"This formation is at least above the seventh rank."
The girl in green couldn't imagine how such a small place could have such a high-level formation master. It was simply outrageous. She didn't know how Elder Chen was doing in there now.
The gray-robed elder only felt a flash before his eyes, and before he could react, he was sucked into the formation.
The space within the formation was filled with gray fog, and visibility around was extremely limited.
The gray-robed elder cursed: "Damn, what kind of crappy place is this? I was also sucked into the formation? What is this gray fog?"
The gray-robed elder tried to explore with his spiritual sense, but found that his spiritual sense could only explore an area of less than five meters around him.
The gray fog in the formation can obviously restrict the exploration of spiritual consciousness. The gray-robed elder snorted coldly and spat out a mouthful of soul fire, trying to burn the gray fog with the fierce flame of the soul fire, but after spitting out the soul fire, he found that it didn't work at all.
Although this gray mist could be ignited, it could not be burned. He burned it for a long time but there was no sign of the gray mist melting.
"Damn it!" Elder Chen gritted his teeth and decided to fight.
He simply rushed forward headfirst, wanting to fly out of the formation space. At the same time, he activated the immortal clothes he was wearing, which released immortal light and formed a layer of protection, wrapping Elder Chen inside.
Elder Chen stepped into the air, trying to pass through the gray fog, but unfortunately he was knocked down by the terrifying gravity just as he took off.
There is a force of rules within this formation space that prohibits flying, so he cannot fly.
As I was walking on foot and just entered the gray fog, the protective shield on my fairy clothes began to make a crackling sound. It was the gray fog that was corroding me.
Elder Chen was horrified, shocked and frightened, and turned back after taking only two steps.
The corrosive power of this gray fog is too terrifying. If I had taken two more steps, I would have been directly transformed into the space of this formation.
Elder Chen was already regretting it now. If he had known, he would not have rushed in. Impulse is the devil! Now he was trapped here. Not only did he not find his Qingshan Seal, but he couldn't even move an inch. The gray fog around him was too terrifying. It was like being in prison.
Elder Chen was afraid: This formation might not be a ninth-level formation, right?
Is there really such an awesome person in this tiny Qingzhou? This time I hit a wall. (End of this chapter)
