Chapter 179 – Assault
“I knew I was tricked by you father and son. I had only been registered in your Xishan Village for one day, and now I have already become a strong man. If I knew earlier, I would have been a rogue cultivator myself!”
Lin Chengsi held the compass in his hand as he continuously calculated and searched for something. At the same time, he was still complaining on the inside, and with every confirmed location, Yang Junshan immediately went up and began setting up the next suggested formation.
Yang Junshan first madow of holes in the ground, and then stuck down a carved rune stick, and then buried a dozen or so stone coins around. After that, he used a thin thread to connect the stone coins with the rune stick, and then set up a recommended warning array.
Lin Chengsi squinted at the simple array and said: It’s that simple? Even cultivators in the late stage of the martial arts realm can be discovered when they pass by? ”
Yang Junshan stood up and nodded: “It shouldn’t be that simple, I have senior’s pointers on this, as long as senior can find the spirit source earth vein accurately, these warning arrays will definitely be effective.”
Lin Chengsi’s face suddenly changed: “Brat, you dare not believe in this old man’s methods?”
Yang Junshan immediately smiled and said: “How would I dare? If it wasn’t for senior, it wouldn’t be so easy for junior to set up this warning formation.”
Lin Chengsi’s face became a little better, and said: “In a short period of time, this old man can only confirm these few relatively clear earth veins, but these few earth veins are far from being able to account for the entire village. At that time, if the thieves infiltrate from other directions, the warning talisman array will be used as a decorative device.”
Yang Junshan nodded his head: “This has always been a matter of luck. If we had discovered this in advance, we would have had time to prepare.”
Lin Chengsi laughed: “I hope my luck isn’t too bad, if it was an early stage cultivator from the martial arts realm, then it would be fine, but even if I wasn’t discovered early, I wouldn’t be afraid with Xishan Village’s strength, but if I were to meet a late stage martial arts realm cultivator, I would probably suffer some losses.”
Yang Junshan laughed: “Senior, have you forgotten that this junior has set up a formation in the village’s merchant group warehouse?”
Lin Chengsi said: “You haven’t even finished setting up the formations, who knows how useful it is, are you sure that even cultivators in the late stage of the martial arts realm are able to trap it?”
had originally thought that Yang Junshan was only an early stage formation master, and wouldn’t have much experience. However, after these few days of interaction, he was unable to continue to underestimate Yang Junshan, and in terms of knowledge and views on certain things, Yang Junshan’s experience and insight seemed to be above his.
A bounty was posted on top of the stage of the Xishan Village. It said: “Once the bounty for the early stage of martial arts realm was confirmed, Sky Wolf Fei Xiu alone will be rewarded fifty stones, and once the reward for the middle stage of martial arts realm is confirmed, Sky Wolf Fei Xiu alone will be rewarded fifty stones, and once the confirmation for the middle stage of the martial arts realm will be rewarded, a hundred stones, a hundred Jade Coins will be rewarded, and five middle grade spirit materials will be rewarded; once the reward for the late stage of martial arts realm will be rewarded, and once the reward for the latter stage of the martial arts realm is confirmed, spiritual valley will be rewarded three hundred stones, three hundred Jade Coins, ten spirit materials, and one bottle of Spirit Containment Pellet. Other than the bounty above, whatever Heavenly Wolf Fei Xiu looted from will be found by the person who took it. ”
After the bounty was announced, everyone in the Mengyu County became excited. Not to mention the bounty for killing Heavenly Wolf Fei Xiu, all of the things that the Heavenly Wolf Fei Xiu had belonged to the people who captured them, who didn’t know that the cultivators of the Sirius Gate were plundering and looting in the Mengyu County during this period of time.
However, in the next few days, several villages in Mengyu County found out about the harassment and destruction of the Sirius Gate’s wandering cultivators, causing death, injuries, and the loss of houses to become even more serious. Although the Martial Realm Cultivator s in various towns and villages tried to encircle and annihilate them, these wandering cultivators were all very cunning, if they found out that it was not right, they would immediately leave.
Moreover, these few days had passed, and the cultivators who were initially defeated now showed signs of joining hands. Yesterday, Wangqiu Town’s hill village was attacked by three cultivators.
Previously, Yang Tiangang and the others were only thinking of a way to eliminate Sky Wolf Fei Xiu and prevent the Xishan Village from raiding, but now that they received the reward from the county magistrate’s order, the entire Xishan Village was rubbing their hands together, thinking about how they could earn a rich reward from the county magistrate, especially the middle ranked spirit materials to be rewarded, they did not specify which ones were there. It was obvious that they wanted to receive the reward and picked them on their own, of the twenty-eight spirit materials listed by Lin Chengsi, they still lacked four middle ranked spirit materials, which was an excellent opportunity.
As for the sixty-seven different spirit materials that could ensure that the Spirit Source Land would continue to expand after being repaired, the gap was even bigger, but these Heavenly Wolf Fei Xiu had plundered the warehouse of the Wangshan Town’s garrison, if they could get the location of the hidden items from their mouths, then they would be able to gatheortion of the sixty-seven spirit materials.
The Xishan Village caravan on the ground in front of the stage had long since built a simple warehouse. The reason why they chose this place was because it was empty, and the reason was that once they fought, they would be able to minimize their losses. And secondly, it was because Yang Junshan had mentioned to Lin Chengsi that there was a major Feng Shui line that traveled across the Western Mountain from here, which was just nice for setting up the array.
In the past two days, a few villages in Wasteland Town also found traces of these roaming cultivators, and a few villages had already been attacked at night. Perhaps it was because the combined strength of the two villages made the attackers feel troubled, so they never appeared near the Xishan Village.
“This is not right!”
Yang Tiangang gathered all the Martial Realm Cultivator s in the village once again and said: “According to the information I obtained, the last time there were no more than twenty Sirius Gate cultivators that entered the Wangshan Town, after being destroyed by the border guards, about half of them survived. At most, there are a dozen of them.
Blacksmith Zhang was unconcerned: “That’s nothing, the dozen people are split into three groups and took turns attacking. Each wave attacked five or six different villages, and after three days, there were more than ten people who were attacked.”
Yang Tiangang shook his head: “That’s not the case. Firstly, it is very difficult for these people to form an organized attack after they have been destroyed; secondly, there are indications that they are trying to gather together, so it is even more impossible to create such a large-scale destruction; thirdly, there are some injured people among these people, so there is no guarantee that they will attack the village again.”
Shi Nansheng said: “Maybe the Sirius Gate and other cultivators have sneaked in.”
Yang Tiangang nodded his head: “That is possible, but under the twin attacks of the border martial law and the bounty, even if someone from the Sirius Gate infiltrates, it should be to help the cultivators who have been defeated and escaped, how can they continue to go against the wind?”
An Xia said in disbelief, “Third brother, you’re saying that someone is fishing in troubled waters?”
Yang Tiangang nodded, and said: “To be more precise, it should be someone deliberately creating chaos here!”
The official forces that the Heaven-Shaken Sect represented were fighting fiercely with the local forces. The only ones that were slightly calmer were the two counties, Jin Yu and Meng Yu. The Jinyu County was wiped out by the Heaven-Shaken Sect because the local forces were weak in the first place, while the Mengyu County was wiped out later on because of Spiritual Master Chen Ji’s pacification policy.
However, after the incident at the Xishan Village Village, the local forces in the Mengyu County seemed to have noticed the shadow of the county magistrate taking the initiative to attack, and coupled with the Dream Yoga Guards suddenly provoking them, it made the local forces sense the danger, so there was no guarantee that these people would add fuel to the fire.
Xu Sanniang asked: “Then what should we do?”
Yang Tiangang pondered for a moment, but did not answer Xu Sanniang’s question. Instead, he turned around and asked Yang Junshan: “How is your array layout, can you trap the cultivators at the late stage of the martial arts realm?”
Yang Junshan answered: The warning runes have already been placed at the edge of the terrain around the village entrance, but these runes are unable to take care of the entire village’s surroundings. The formation over at the fake warehouse is already set up, so it’s impossible to trap a late stage martial arts realm cultivator, but it’s noroblem to weaken his strength.
When Yang Junshan was speaking, all the Martial Realm Cultivator in the room listened attentively. The position of an array master was pretty high in the cultivation world, and Yang Junshan had already proven his identity as an array master. Even if Xu Sanniang, Shi Nansheng and the rest had doubts in their hearts, they did not dare to directly refute him.
At this time, Lin Chengsi, who was at the side, smacked his lips and said: “I have some understanding of formations, and the formations that this guy has set up is very rare. At the very least, if he were to personally control the formations, I think we should correct the words he had just said, that is, even if the peak of the fifth stage cultivators were to come, we would still be able to use formations to tangle with the enemies.
If one were to say that Yang Junshan’s previous words had been looked down upon because he was a junior, then as a Spiritual Seeker with a considerable reputation within the Mengyu County, his words would inevitably be believed by others.
Whether it was the formation master or the Spiritual Seeker, it only showed that Yang Tiangang’s control and authority over the Xishan Village had reached a level that was far beyond their reach.
The night wind was slightly cold and the two cultivators who were at the second level martial arts realm, Blacksmith Zhang and Shi Nansheng, were on duty at the fake warehouse tonight. Eight wind chimes were hanging down from the roof of the temporary warehouse, but even though the night wind was blowing, these wind chimes didn’t move at all.
An oil lamp, a few dishes, and a jar of old wine were enough for the two of them to exchange cups.
But at this moment, the wind chime hanging from the southwest corner under the eaves suddenly jingled. The two people who had just raised their wine glasses froze at the same time. A look of surprise flashed in their eyes at the same time, and they each put down their wine glasses.
Blacksmith Zhang stood up, holding the hammer in his hand, while Shi Nansheng poured an oil lamp on the table, the oil of the lamp flowed onto the ground and ignited a green flame, following that, a dim yellow light flashed on the ground, and the array formation beneath his feet was ignited by the green flame.
In the Yang Mansion, Yang Junshan suddenly sat up from the bed. After putting on his clothes, he entered the courtyard.
