Chapter 88 I Hate Formations
The people from Danxiang Pavilion stood at the entrance with a dazed look on their faces. What was going on? It was simply like a swarm of locusts. There was not a single blade of grass growing on such a good mountain. No, it was not a question of whether there was grass or not, but even some pieces of land were lost.
Ji Bochao rushed up the mountain first, and at the obvious dividing line between the loess and the dense forest, he took out the list in his hand for comparison.
"They took away two kinds of spiritual plants. Let's chase them and get them back."
"Okay, not only should we take back the spiritual plants, we might as well send them all away and let them trip us up!"
Jing Boxhao looked coldly at the indignant Li Qiufei, as if he was looking at a pig.
"Our goal is to be number one, and what we lack most right now is time. Don't get entangled with the people from Taiqiong Sect. Get the things and come back as soon as possible. We will settle the account slowly in the future."
The others nodded and immediately followed him. Li Qiufei's face turned red with embarrassment, with a look of grievance and unwillingness in his eyes.
In the past, the eldest senior sister didn't care about anything, and the younger brothers all listened to him and had the final say in all actions. Now that an outsider has come, he is nothing. This makes him feel resentful, a resentment that is even stronger than the resentment he has towards the people from Taiqiong Sect, and he has the urge to kill everyone.
Ji Bochao brought his fellow disciples to Intersection No. 8, but just as they took a step, a gorgeous array pattern rose up and the five of them were trapped in the array again.
Ji Bochao was so angry that he hammered the formation wall with his hand. It was the formation again, this damn formation. One day, he would definitely kill Zhong Ling'er to see if she dared to use the formation to plot against him again.
"Don't you know the formation? See if you can break it."
Ji Bochao was extremely angry and his attitude towards Li Qiufei was naturally not good.
Li Qiufei did not say anything, but observed the formation. This formation was not difficult, it was just a trap formation, and it was an elementary formation that would automatically disappear after a quarter of an hour. He could solve it, but why should he solve it just because Ji Bochao asked him to?
Holding a branch and writing and drawing on the ground, Li Qiufei had a hard time breaking the formation.
"Can you do it?"
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Ji Bochao became even more impatient.
"Don't make any noise, I need some quiet time."
Li Qiufei glared at Ji Boxhao in reproach, and Ji Boxhao had no choice but to hold back his temper, shut up and calm down.
Feeling that the time was almost up, Li Qiufei drew his sword and slashed at a wall of the formation, and the formation was broken. The others cheered softly.
"I thought we would be trapped for at least an hour, luckily my second brother is here."
Li Qiufei shook his head proudly, "I only know a little bit. Next, I suggest you go separately. There must be more than one formation along the way. If you encounter one, it will be faster to break it from both inside and outside."
"Then I will form a team with Fifth Junior Brother, and the three of you will form a team. We must quickly catch up with the people from Taiqiong Sect, grab what you have and leave without stopping."
After Ji Boxhao finished packing his lunch box, he left first. The other three, led by Li Qiufei, walked up the mountain along the other side.
In Li Qiufei's opinion, the Taiqiong Sect did not have the time to set up a too complicated formation, so why should he be afraid of a simple formation? Therefore, they moved very quickly along the way without any worries, until they were trapped by a wind-killing formation.
Ji Bochao and his companion on the other road did not walk far before they were trapped by another formation. Ji Bochao pounded the formation wall with his fists. He hated the formation master, the formation plate, and everyone and everything related to the formation.
The people outside the secret realm were delighted.
"The people from Danxiang Pavilion are really stubborn. They went up the mountain even though they knew there was a trap. What's going on? They are trapped again!"
"They have no choice. If they can't get the spiritual plants on the list, they won't get any results even if they reach the top of the mountain."
"How can Junior Sister be so smart? She really doesn't leave any chance for the people from Danxiang Pavilion to survive. I think Danxiang Pavilion will be ranked last again in this round."
"I counted and my junior sister has lost more than a dozen formation disks. Danxiang Pavilion is in a bad situation."
Master Yuying felt that his eyes were darkening. Even if he replaced two Nascent Souls, would the situation of the battle not be changed?
Ji Bochao did not remain discouraged for too long. He then began to chop at the walls of the formation, hoping to exhaust the spiritual power of the formation as soon as possible.
On the other side, Xiao Rui helplessly took out a small sword, activated his spiritual power, and the sword intent raged. While countless sword qi resisted the wind blades, they also attacked the formation wall that was flashing with runes.
"This is a self-defense sword power my father gave me. If it can't break this formation, let's crush the token."
Xiao Rui was helpless. They were unlucky. This was a killing array. With the strength of the three of them, even if they were not killed, they would be seriously injured. They were bound to be the last. So why bother struggling anymore?
Fortunately, the sword intent was strong enough. After a quarter of an hour, the sword intent dissipated, and the Wind Killing Formation was broken and disappeared. Xiao Rui and the other two were just a little embarrassed, but their injuries were not serious. They found Ji Bochao and the other two, who helped them attack from both inside and outside, and the trap was broken.
"Do you want to continue going up?"
Facing Xiao Rui's question, Ji Bochao gritted his teeth and said nothing. Wen Jinyan said helplessly: "But the spiritual plants we need are in their hands."
Ji Boxhao took out the list and read it again. He seemed to have made up his mind and his eyes became sinister.
"They are not the only ones who have the spiritual plants we need. The Heartless Fruit is also on Route 15, and the Snakehead Ganoderma is not far from Route 24. Divide into two teams and look for them. If you can't find the things, go find the people. You must get them back no matter what."
"So what are you going to do, Big Brother?"
"I'm going to make it difficult for them. They are so far ahead of us. What's the point of comparing like this?"
Xiao Rui didn't understand what Ji Bochao was going to do, but now was not the time to ask, so he discussed it with Li Qiufei, and then each of them took one person to look for spiritual plants.
Jing Boxhao came to the foot of the mountain, walked around the mountain, and then came to entrance No. 12 to wait for his fellow disciples to come back.
Xiao Rui went to Route 15, which happened to be the road that led to the Tianyu Sect. Not long after they walked, they met Li Senting and others. They told them that they needed the Wuxin Fruit, and Li Senting gave it to them directly, so Xiao Rui and the others returned quickly.
Li Qiufei and his companion went to Route 24, which was the route chosen by Fengming Sect. They chased for a long time before they caught up with the person. It was another big battle. Wen Jinyan took great pains to capture a hostage, and only then did they get the snake head Ganoderma lucidum in exchange.
However, their return was only met with Ji Boxhao's unpleasant snort. It was obvious that he thought they were too slow and he was too lazy to pay attention to them.
Then he stepped into the air, reached high in the sky, used his spiritual power, and struck three swords in succession at the black fog surrounding the mountain. Careful people could see that his three swords were very elaborate, one sword was horizontal, and two were vertical, but they fell in the center of the black fog. Then the fog surged, and the roar of monsters came from the mountain.
