In the night, as a spiritual treasure exploded, a spiritual light suddenly appeared, lighting up half the sky.
Accompanied by a loud roar, the whole ground shook, and various sounds were mixed together, as if the sky was shattering.
A hundred or so people rushed towards the mountain quickly, as if they were afraid that they would be left behind.
It was obviously a small mountain, but everyone seemed unable to reach the top. Whenever they looked up, the top of the mountain was still at the same distance from them.
"Junior Brother Li, something seems wrong." A disciple ran to Li Xiuping, looking at the top of the mountain, panting.
Li Xiuping nodded and said, "Stop for a moment."
The disciple shouted loudly: "Wait a moment."
Everyone stopped and gathered here.
Being able to be selected by various sects to participate in this Immortal Ascension Conference, no matter how weak the people present are, they are not ordinary people, so they can naturally feel the weirdness of this mountain.
A disciple from Jiuyuan Mountain said at this time: "There seems to be some kind of phantom formation in this mountain, so it may not be that easy to reach the top of the mountain."
Li Xiuping didn't even fully understand the basics of cultivation, let alone formations, so he naturally didn't speak.
A disciple asked: "What should we do? If we continue like this, let alone two days, we may never reach the top of the mountain."
Another disciple said: "Since the formation is blocking it, it is natural to break the formation first."
The Jiuyuan Mountain disciple from before said: "I'm afraid it's not that easy to break the formation."
Everyone fell silent, thinking about countermeasures, and finally looked at the Jiuyuan Mountain disciple.
Jiuyuan Mountain is the authentic sect of Taoism and the number one sect in Yunzhou. The disciples of Jiuyuan Mountain are naturally highly respected outside. Now that they encounter obstacles that they cannot solve, they will naturally put their hope in the disciples of Jiuyuan Mountain.
After the Jiuyuan Mountain disciple thought for a while, he said: "In this way, all those who know the formation will come forward first. Let's try to join forces to see if we can break the formation with the formation. Even if it doesn't work, we should be able to find it." The origin of this confusing formation. Only by knowing the origin and function of this formation can we think of the corresponding method to break the formation."
Everyone nodded, and then those sect disciples who knew the formation stepped forward one after another, as many as twenty-two.
"We all know some formations and we all follow Senior Brother Lu's orders."
Everyone said in unison.
The Jiuyuan Mountain disciple surnamed Lu nodded and said to Hou Yongping, who is also from the same sect: "Junior brother Hou, you lead ten people to be responsible for the west side, and I will lead ten people to be responsible for the east side. We will form a Liangyi formation and use the operation of the formation to see if we can We cannot let the formation here appear."
Hou Yongping nodded and led a dozen or so people towards the west while briefing them on the Liangyi Formation.
As both sides got ready, the Jiuyuan Mountain disciple gave an order, and people on both sides formed seals at the same time. Then a breeze appeared out of thin air on the ground, and then everyone moved at the same time, each stepping on the formation, causing a figure similar to a Pisces figure to appear in the field. thing.
After this thing appeared, it slowly rotated, and the majestic yet gentle power continued to spread out in all directions, causing ripples in the night.
Suddenly there was a low muffled sound in the night sky, like something colliding together, and then invisible barriers appeared directly, and golden runes flickered alternately, entwining each other to form a huge rune that repeated itself.
Everyone was looking at the huge rune at this moment, frowning.
"Senior Brother Lu, have you seen this formation before?" Hou Yongping asked directly.
The Jiuyuan Mountain disciple named Lu stared at the huge rune and shook his head.
These people themselves have little attainments in formations. Although they have successfully activated the Liangyi Formation in Jiuyuan Mountain, they cannot hold on for long and are expelled by the formation after a while.
As more and more people were expelled, the flashing runes slowly disappeared, and the surrounding area quickly returned to its original state, silent.
Everyone stood there, with no way to deal with it.
At this time, several disciples happened to run over panting. One of them frowned and asked, "Why are you still here?"
Everyone turned around and saw that the person coming was a disciple of the Huayang Sect, and the person asking the question was Xu Bansheng.
Li Xiuping glanced behind Xu Bansheng and others, frowned and said: "There is a maze set up in this mountain, and we can't get through it at all. Why is Senior Brother Xu here? Did you solve that mysterious beast?"
Xu Bansheng shook his head and said: "It's been delayed for the time being, but it can't be delayed for too long, so let's come over and have a look."
Xu Bansheng said, looked around, and then said: "I have seen this formation in the library. It is not a powerful formation. It only needs..."
Probably due to time constraints, Xu Bansheng directly changed his words and said: "Forget it, I'll take you in."
After that, he walked directly forward, but not towards the top of the mountain. Instead, he took a few steps to the left, then walked a few steps down, then to the right, then up, and so on, heading towards the mountain.
Everyone looked confused, and the disciple named Lu from Jiuyuan Mountain said, "Follow him."
The rest of the people moved forward according to Xu Bansheng's pace. After a while, everyone was surprised to find that the top of the mountain was getting closer and closer. It was not like before. No matter how they walked, the top of the mountain was always not far ahead.
Just when everyone was filled with joy, Xu Bansheng in front suddenly stopped and shouted: "Back off!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he flew backwards and almost lost his balance after landing on the ground.
On the way forward, a huge stone pillar appeared out of thin air, blocking the entire mountain road.
Li Xiuping walked up to Xu Bansheng, looked at Xu Bansheng who looked slightly pale, and asked, "Are you okay?"
Xu Bansheng said bitterly: "I didn't expect there to be more than one formation. It seems that this first round of assessment is not as easy as we thought."
Hou Yongping said at this time: "We can break this formation, but we need a strong person to destroy those stone pillars. The person who breaks the formation not only needs to destroy the stone pillars that keep appearing, but also needs to follow our instructions. If you make a mistake, you will be It’s very likely that they will be evicted and severely damaged.”
Countless people looked at each other, but no one took the initiative to stand up.
It's not that these disciples are afraid, but destroying those stone pillars is not an easy task. Not only does it require strong strength, but it must also be powerful enough to destroy those stone pillars.
“How much destruction does it take?”
A voice sounded, and everyone followed the voice and looked, it was Li Xiuping.
Hou Yongping frowned and said, "At least five."
To say who among these people has the ability to destroy those stone pillars, I am afraid it is only Li Xiuping.
Although there are many disciples who went up the mountain this time, the strongest ones are only in the late stage of foundation building. But even in the late stage of foundation building, they can only destroy two stone pillars at most, and then they will face the end of physical exhaustion, and then Being expelled from the formation.
But Hou Yongping had seen Li Xiuping's ability with his own eyes, because even a monk in the middle stage of foundation building couldn't withstand Li Xiuping's sword. The spiritual treasure of a previous foundation building disciple was even directly used by Li Xiuping with that stick. The knife split in half.
Hou Yongping has always been curious about Li Xiuping's hatchet, but he couldn't take it from Li Xiuping and study it, so he has been thinking about it until now.
Li Xiuping thought about it in his mind and said, "I can give it a try."
Hou Yongping nodded and said: "I will give you guidance outside in a while. You must do what I say. If it doesn't work, quit immediately."
Li Xiuping nodded and walked forward with the hatchet in hand.
He didn't stop until he reached the place where Xu Bansheng was repelled earlier.
Li Xiuping looked back at Hou Yongping, and Hou Yongping said: "Go forward seven steps, pay attention to avoid the attack of the stone pillars, and then attack the first stone pillar that appears on the right. Be sure to destroy it!"
Li Xiuping nodded, his feet suddenly exerted force, and his body rushed forward.
Just as Li Xiuping moved, countless stone pillars suddenly appeared on the originally empty ground, hitting Li Xiuping.
Li Xiuping ignored these stone pillars and kept avoiding them. He soon walked seven steps away, and then two stone pillars appeared on the left and right at the same time, colliding towards Li Xiuping.
In this situation, Li Xiuping had no place to hide. Without any hesitation, he used the hatchet in his hand to influence the sword intention in his body and swung it directly towards the stone pillar on the right.
The sword energy was flowing horizontally, and the stone pillar on the right was split open by Li Xiuping's sword, and then the entire stone pillar exploded.
The stone pillar on the left was still hitting Li Xiuping.
"Go to the right, destroy the fourth pillar that appears on the front, and continue moving forward." At the same time, Hou Yongping's voice came to mind.
Li Xiuping raised his hand and pressed on the stone pillar on the left. With the help of the impact of the stone pillar, he flew out to the right. Then he used his body skills to the extreme, constantly avoiding those stone pillars that appeared out of thin air. After the fourth pillar appeared, Li Xiuping Shuhei swung his sword again.
Before the fourth pillar was fully revealed, it exploded instantly and filled with dust, making it impossible for people outside to see what was going on inside.
"Go forward and destroy the sixth pillar." Hou Yongping's voice sounded.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on the field. No one noticed that Hou Yongping was sweating profusely at this moment, but his eyes were fixed on the stone pillars that were constantly appearing in the field, and he did not even dare to blink.
In the dust, Li Xiuping followed Hou Yongping's guidance and activated the sword intent in his body again and again, destroying all the stone pillars Hou Yongping said.
When reaching the fifth stone pillar, Li Xiuping already felt a little exhausted, but he managed to destroy the fifth stone pillar and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
However, those stone pillars did not stop attacking, and one of the stone pillars hit Li Xiuping directly.
Li Xiuping, who had no time to react, was instantly hit by the stone pillar. Like being hit by a heavy hammer, his body flew backwards. The stone pillars along the way were constantly smashed into pieces by Li Xiuping's body.
But even with the resistance of those stone pillars, they still couldn't offset the huge power on his body, and blood continued to overflow from his mouth and nose.
