After waiting in the guest room for two hours, Wu Chenlong came back panting. As soon as he entered the door, he asked: "Boss, I bought all the materials you asked for. It cost nearly 100 million. Those people are so enthusiastic and treat me like a master!"
Cheng Ling chuckled and said, "Does it feel good to be a master?"
"It's cool! As long as I sit there and talk, those guys will be jumping up and down everywhere, busy. But boss, what do you need so much materials for?"
"It's a secret for the time being. You can go back and rest first! If you're still not tired, you can go to the gambling house to play with your hands. But remember, you must return to the guest room before time tomorrow. Don't come out unless I ask you. Otherwise, you will get out. I don’t care about anything!”
Wu Chenlong was very depressed. Seeing that Cheng Ling insisted not to say anything, he had no choice but to go back to his guest room to rest.
Cheng Ling put a few restrictions on the door, sat down cross-legged, and began to refine the formation flags and formation pillars. He wanted to set up a formation to wrap up the entire inn, making all the monks in the inn lose their ability to resist.
In four hours, all the materials were refined. Looking at the weak and swaying meteor fire, a trace of guilt flashed in my heart. The power of the flames has become even weaker. Ever since I used the meteor fire to perform the extreme fire path in the Kendo Tower, it has become weaker by more than half.
Later, after a long period of alchemy refining, its own recovery ability could not keep up with the consumption. This time when I came to the south, I had to find some treasures to help it recover. It would be better if it could be upgraded. Otherwise, in its prime state, it would not take so long to refine.
At this time, it was just dawn, and the lighting in the dense forest was not good. Cheng Ling took out a bottle of wine, took a sip, sprinkled some on his clothes, pretended to be hungover, and staggered out of the room.
Arriving on the first floor, the gambling game in the hall was still in full swing. Cheng Ling walked towards the door and saw the original waiter taking a nap against the door. Hearing Cheng Ling's footsteps, he came to his senses and asked, "So it's Mr. Cheng who wants to go out early in the morning?"
"Well... I'm very dizzy. Come out and get some air. The female cultivators from your Ruyi Academy are really strong. Hehehehehe~~~!"
The waiter suddenly realized and smelled the smell of alcohol on his body again. He smiled obscenely and said, "Master Cheng is really tough. He actually played all night. But you have to go and don't fall into the river!"
"Fuck you, I can't see such a big river? Don't follow me, let me clear my head and continue at night, hehe~~~!"
The waiter secretly cursed, don't let them hollow out the body of your second generation ancestor. He ignored him and continued to meet Duke Zhou by the door.
Cheng Ling staggered to the door, looked around, and kept changing positions to deduce the formation nodes. At each node, the formation pillars were secretly laid down, and an hour later, the entire formation was set up. He also set up a control point outside. As soon as the time comes, the formation will be activated naturally.
After arranging everything, he staggered into the inn and went back to the guest room to rest. The guy next to the door didn't have any suspicion at all!
Late at night, at midnight, there is silence in the dense forests of the mountains. Only the breeze brings wisps of fresh air, and the sound of gurgling water from the river injects a touch of agility into the quiet space.
Suddenly, a brilliant circle of light flashed around the inn, starting from the ground and gradually spreading into the air. Gradually, the spreading space became larger and larger, and finally formed a semicircular transparent mask. After the last ray of light flashed, it completely stabilized!
Inside the inn, there was a lot of noise in the gambling room on the first floor and the Ruyi Courtyard on the third floor. As for the second floor, the auction has ended. There are only two auctions per month, so it is impossible to prosper every day.
Suddenly, the lights in the hall dimmed
, it turned into a gray space in less than a moment, hot, dry, and with dry yellow sand hitting my face.
"What's going on? Where are we? Am I not in a gambling house? Why did I suddenly come to the desert! No, why can't I see anyone else around? There were many gamblers before. Where have they gone?"
"Hey, where is the little lady just now? Where is she? If you dare to fool me, I will kill you if I catch you!"
"Something's wrong. The environment here has changed. No one around you can see it. There's only the vast yellow sand."
"No, my true energy is gradually dissipating. These sands are actually weakening the true energy."
"Master, master, where are you? This disciple is afraid!"
"Little lady, come here quickly. Can we play the game again?"
"Tornado, that turned out to be a salon scroll. What's going on? What is the Agni Cult doing?"
"We can't tell the direction here at all. Do the people from the Agni Fire Sect want to take action against us?"
All kinds of mixed voices sounded, including anger, shock, fear, and so on.
Cheng Ling, along with Jian Yinghao and others, were in the guest room, looking at the monitoring array and having a panoramic view of everyone's performance. The five-person guest room has long been banned and will not be affected by the formation.
Jian Yinghao stared at the scene in the array in stunned silence, speechless.
Bai Yiyi asked in confusion: "What happened to them? Are they all trapped in the formation?"
"Yes, the entire inn, except our guest room, is covered by the formation."
"Then what will happen to them? What kind of formation is this?"
"This formation is a killing formation. I named it Wanli Yellow Sand. When you see those sands, they will pass through the bodies of those monks and take away every trace of their true energy until they are turned into ashes!"
Jian Yinghao flashed his light and asked: "Unexpectedly, Brother Cheng is actually a formation master. Can you tell me what level of formation this is?"
"Level 5!" He didn't tell the truth because he was afraid that if he told Level 6, Jian Yinghao would ask him to break the mountain-protecting formations of various sects and families, which would not be fun. His current strength is still too weak to compete with the seven major forces.
Besides, he also had to consider the Wuxiang Sword Sect. If things got serious, it would be easy to find out his origin. By then, the Wuxiang Sword Sect will also suffer disaster. In name, he is still the leader of the Wuxiang Sword Sect, so of course he does not want to cause trouble!
"Are you going to kill them all in the formation?" Gu Youlan asked.
"No, I will only let them run out of true energy and lose the ability to resist, and then stop the operation of the formation. By then, these people are not yet under our control. With a little interrogation, we can know the lair of the Agni Cult and the major The stronghold of power!"
Jian Yinghao nodded and said: "I'm really glad that I brought Brother Cheng here to complete the mission this time. Otherwise, the academy doesn't know how long it will take to understand their conspiracy, and the losses will be greatly increased!"
Wu Chenlong felt very happy when he saw it, and he laughed and said: "The boss is the boss. Once he takes action, the opponent will be unable to resist. Fortunately, they are all elites of the major forces, and they can't display their cultivation and superb swordsmanship!"
Jian Yinghao laughed loudly, Bai Yiyi giggled, and only Gu Youlan showed a hint of appreciation in her eyes but did not speak.
An idea flashed in Cheng Ling's mind, yes! These people are not simple things, especially those monks who have perfected the Nascent Soul. Their inheritance and swordsmanship are among the elites of several major forces. He suddenly remembered a scene from "The Legend of Heaven and Dragon Sword".
The masters of the six major sects were trapped in Wan'an Temple by Zhao Min, who wanted to learn their martial arts by sparring with each other. Although it is a big mistake in the world of cultivation to learn martial arts secretly,
Ji, Cheng Ling didn't intend to learn their techniques, but it was feasible to improve the strength of the five of them by fighting them.
Now among the five, Jian Yinghao, Bai Yiyi, and Gu Youlan have reached the level of Nascent Soul. It is no longer easy to improve their cultivation, but they can hone their sword skills. As for myself and Wu Chenlong, their swordsmanship can be improved. Isn't this a target for them?
Moreover, the Agni Fire Cult and the seven major forces chose this place as the place to sell dirty things underground. It was obviously hidden enough. As long as the news was not leaked, who would have known that they would occupy the magpie's nest? As long as I and others control the Agni Cult disciples in the inn, they can delay it for a long time.
At that time, it is estimated that reinforcements from the academy will be arriving soon. The five of them retired with great success and gained infinite glory, and then became core disciples and even direct disciples. Top-notch sword skills, body skills, and body training techniques are all beckoning to him. The more he thought about it, the more beautiful it became, and gradually drool began to flow from the corners of his mouth.
It wasn't until Wu Chenlong shook him awake that he realized what was going on and asked, "What's going on?"
"Boss, what were you thinking about just now? You're drooling!"
"What!" Cheng Ling hurriedly wiped the corner of his mouth, which was indeed slightly moist. He coughed dryly, covered up his ugly appearance, and said, "Well, I was thinking about how to annihilate the Agni Fire Cult and how to improve our combat power!"
"Oh!" Jian Yinghao perked up and asked, "Brother Cheng, do you have any good ideas?"
"Wait a minute, one of you can go in and grab a few tongues, understand the situation clearly, and then make a plan!"
Bai Yiyi was very excited and said hurriedly: "I'll go!"
"Okay, relax, I will teach you the formation layout, and you can come and go freely!"
Bai Yi followed what he said and relaxed her mind.
Cheng Ling pointed at her forehead and poured the entire layout of the Wanli Yellow Sand Formation into her mind. After finishing, he said: "Don't look for high-level ones first, look for those monks at the Golden Core stage. It's best to grab one from each sect."
Jian Yinghao smiled and said: "Brother Cheng, let's go together. You can host it here, which saves Yiyi from running back and forth!"
Cheng Ling nodded and transmitted the formation layout to several people's minds one by one. Just when I touched Gu Youlan, I felt his body tremble slightly, and I was surprised. This girl's body is so sensitive? It was just a touch on the forehead!
After the four people understood the structure of the formation, they rushed into it one by one and captured the monks in the formation. Those monks could not find other companions in the formation at all. They could only run around in the void space and were easily controlled by them.
In less than a moment, eight monks were arrested. Cheng Ling nodded with satisfaction and asked them all to be taken to his guest room.
Eight monks lined up in a row, slumped on the ground. I was finally out of the horrible yellow sand. In just a short while, my cultivation level dropped from Golden Core Perfection to the middle stage. If I continue like this, I will soon become a useless person.
But who are these people in front of me? There are three men and two women, all of whom are very beautiful. For example, the female nuns from the Yiyuan Academy are even more beautiful. The three men were also sitting upright, with a formidable aura on their bodies.
But the way they looked at me was so awkward and playful, as if they were looking at meat in a pot that they could swallow at any time! What's even more uncomfortable is that there is still endless silence, no words, just watching them quietly.
Time passed slowly and the silence continued. Cold sweat gradually began to break out on the heads of the eight monks, and then their whole bodies began to tremble, the more they trembled, the more frequent they became!
In the end, none of them could stand it any longer and screamed in their hearts, "What on earth is going on?" Is it life or death, to be honest, if I continue to look at it like this, I will vomit bile!
