Chen Xuan and Yang Yunshan can only stay inside forever. If only one person is left outside, that person will always leave to look for food, so that Chen Xuan and the others have a chance to escape.
"Hmph! I think you two are deliberately trying to go against us two brothers. Just wait and see me break this formation. You will be able to see it when the time comes."
Chen Xuan shut up. He didn't want to listen to the nonsense of the man with the knife anymore. The only way to survive now was to kill the man with the gun and make the man with the knife feel apprehensive.
At this time, the man with the gun finally calmed down, because he found that relying on brute force could not break through the constraints of the formation, so it was better to rest first and then think of a solution.
"I'm just sitting here and wasting my time with you. What do you do to me?" The man with the gun put his gun on the ground and sat down.
Before he finished speaking, a long sword pierced through the light curtain and headed straight for the gunman's heart. The man's hair suddenly opened, and he rolled over. He barely avoided the long sword, but the sword still cut a long gash in his arm, and the blood immediately dyed his clothes red.
The light curtain flashed by, and when the man tried to pick up his spear, he found that the spear had disappeared.
Outside the light curtain, Chen Xuan was holding a sword in his right hand and the spear in his left hand.
"How dare you, you bastard!" the man with the knife shouted outside.
What answered him was that the long sword passed through the light curtain again and pierced the throat of the man in the formation.
The man was covered in blood, dripping with cold sweat, and looked highly nervous. He was almost stabbed by a sword just now. It's no wonder that in the Spectral Killing Formation, you don't know where the sword is coming from or who is stabbing it, so it is of course very difficult to guard against it.
"I surrender, don't kill me. Big brother, please help me, I can't hold on any longer!" Five minutes later, the man in the formation had been struck by seven or eight swords all over his body. The only thing he could do now was to always pay attention to the tip of the sword to avoid stabbing him. It hit the vital point, and the protection of the arms and legs had long been given up.
"Ah! I'm so angry. Second brother, hold on, watch me break this dead formation." The big man with the knife could only yell outside, unable to think of any solution. And he was secretly glad in his heart that he did not step into this formation.
Another five minutes passed, and Chen Xuan was already able to skillfully manipulate the light screen to coordinate with the long sword he thrust out. Now he was about to complete the decisive blow against the middle man.
In fact, a few times just now, Chen Xuan had the opportunity to stab the big man in the vital part, but due to hesitation in his heart, he slowed down his movements and allowed the big man to escape his life.
But at this point, both sides were fighting to the death, and Chen Xuan finally made up his mind to kill the men in the formation.
"Little ancestor, have mercy on me!" The man had completely lost his confidence now. The only thing he could do was to shout for mercy. But a sword stabbed through the air, and his throat was pierced. A look of fear appeared on his face, and then he fell to the ground with a thud, dying.
Chen Xuan put away his sword and gently wiped it on his clothes until all the blood on it disappeared. This sword was given to him by his master Du Zisong. He didn't have a space ring before, so he couldn't keep it with him, but after he came back last time, he received it together with the dagger bought by Yang Yunshan.
"You killed my second brother! You, I'm going to skin you." The man with the knife howled.
The big man roared fiercely, but he was actually very frightened in his heart. He even had the idea of running away. Both of them were cultivators at the eighth level of the mortal realm. They had experienced many storms and waves. Unexpectedly, this time they were chasing an old man of the same realm, and the second brother actually lost his life. What's even more annoying is that the person who killed him was just a fourth-level mortal child.
Chen Xuan and Yang Yunshan can only stay in the large formation now. They rely on this large formation. Without the large formation, their strength is not worth mentioning.
In terms of spiritual power alone, Chen Xuan's ability to control this light-splitting tribulation and killing formation has actually reached a very high level. Only a cultivator at the seventh level of the mortal realm can do it. But until now, Chen Xuan has not deliberately learned various techniques, which are commonly known as fighting methods. In this way, when facing the enemy, he can only rely on instinctive strength. If Chen Xuan had learned a set of swordsmanship, it would have taken less than ten minutes to kill the man in the formation just now. He could have eliminated the enemy in one or two blows.
It's not that Chen Xuan doesn't want to learn techniques, but generally speaking, learning techniques only starts from the fifth level of the mortal realm. At least the Shenxin Sect stipulates that the disciple's authority to obtain techniques is the fifth level of the mortal realm.
Chen Xuan and Yang Yunshan stayed in the formation in fear, while the men outside were even more anxious. He knew that the boy in front of him was a disciple of the largest sect in the area. Now he was trapping this boy here. If his senior brothers came to find him, he would not be able to eat and leave. "No, I can't expose myself too much. Even if I want to seek revenge, I can only do it in secret."
As night fell, Chen Xuan found that the man with the knife was missing.
Chen Xuan and Yang Yunshan stayed in the formation until the first light of dawn the next morning before trying to get out of the formation. They walked around the formation for a few times, but found no trace of the big man, and then they rushed into the city in a panic.
They did not dare to go directly to the place where Yang Yunshan lived, and they were also afraid of encountering a man with a knife on the road, so they hid until noon, when they returned to their residence.
Xian'er and Old Man Hu finally showed smiles on their faces when they saw the two coming back. They had been worried all night last night.
"How's it going? Have you dealt with those two boys?" Old Man Hu asked.
"Ahem! Bad luck, only one was solved." Chen Xuan replied. Later, he recounted this experience, and finally asked with confusion: "Why did that man disappear out of thin air? He should be keeping an eye on us!"
"Do you think he is very strong? He is just an eighth-level mortal cultivator. Any of your senior fellow apprentices can strangle him to death with one hand." After all, Old Man Hu is an experienced man, so he caught him immediately The reason why that man disappeared.
Chen Xuan suddenly realized, and then became worried again, "Now that the enemy is hiding in a dark place, we should pay more attention."
"It doesn't matter! If the enemy doesn't move, I won't move. As long as we are careful, when my injury gets better, we can control the large formation outside. Then we will have no worries about protecting ourselves." Old Man Hu said.
"Then when will your old injury be healed?"
"At most half a month, as long as you replenish your energy and blood, you'll be fine."
"Okay, you should pay more attention in the past half month and don't reveal your whereabouts. After Father Hu is well, we will formulate the next action plan." Chen Xuan finally said, "I am going back to the sect today, and you must Be careful with yourself.”
This time Chen Xuan helped Old Man Hu, but Old Man Hu never mentioned the five hundred top-quality wood spirit crystals he promised. But Chen Xuan would not deny his account. Before leaving, he confessed to Old Man Hu that in a month and a half, he would deliver these spiritual crystals to Old Man Hu.
Old Man Hu didn't ask the reason for one and a half months, but he thought that this time should be just right. If there is still no trace of the man with the knife after one and a half months, it means that he has returned to Iron Lion City, and then Old Man Hu and Xian'er must move their places. , at this time, those spiritual crystals are very important.
Chen Xuan didn't think so much. He still had to pay off the 100,000 spiritual crystals he owed to the sect this month. There was really no way for him to make them for Old Man Hu.
On the way back to the sect, Chen Xuan was always cautious, but in the end he was just too worried. He didn't meet many people on the way, let alone such a powerful-looking man.
Chen Xuan delayed his return to the sect for a day this time. According to the sect rules, he had to accept the punishment of a one-month suspension of resources. Twenty ordinary wood spirit crystals, this was the resource he deserved for a month as a third level of spiritual power. Chen Xuan just smiled.
Chen Xuan felt very unsatisfied with what he did during this outing. One is not, and the other is putting Yang Yunshan in danger. These are the consequences of his not planning clearly in advance.
But at the same time, there are still gains. This time he not only realized the power of the formation, but also exercised his own abilities.
Among all the problems, what Chen Xuan thought about the most was how to get rid of the big man with the knife. He even thought about the possibility of posting a mission to kill a big man with a knife on the sect's mission list. If this works, Chen Xuan believes that the big man will never survive three days.
But after thinking about it, I felt that this was inappropriate. How could the sect's mission list allow disciples to issue such missions casually? Unless it can be proven that the person killed was a very evil person, or made a huge mistake that harmed the sect. Like Chen Xuan, who kills other people just because he wants to protect his friends, this kind of behavior is unlikely to qualify for a kill order on the mission list.
If both of the two are not feasible, then there is the last one that is feasible, and that is to rely on personal feelings to ask someone to kill the man. If you do this, the sect will probably not interfere if they find out. But here comes the problem again. Chen Xuan knows a lot of people, but he doesn't really have any close friends!
Sect Leader Huang has gotten close to me during this period, and if I promise some benefits, I might be able to persuade him. Unfortunately, the Huang Sect Master is concentrating on breaking through the ninth level of spiritual power.
As the days passed, Chen Xuan's number of top-quality wood spirit crystals increased.
