Chapter 273 – abode
Along with Yang Junshan’s increase in cultivation and strength, although the Snake-Necked Bow had only appeared in his hands for a short period of time, it was already slowly becoming weaker, but from start to finish, Yang Junshan had not used his new life tool, Mountain Monarch Seal, against his enemies.
Seeing the corpses of the cultivators, Yang Junshan thought back to the battle. Then, he stomped on the ground, causing cracks to appear, and the corpses fell into the cracks in the ground. The cracks then closed, and the ground returned to normal.
As Yang Junshan went deeper and deeper, the fog that permeated the entire Sunset Ridge became denser and denser. Furthermore, the ground would occasionally shake more and more frequently, until they were a few kilometers away from the location of the last great war that broke out in the Sunset Ridge’s Pass.
From the news brought by the cultivators who had entered this area, the area covered by the fog could be considered as the exterior of the cave. This place was already affected by a strange power, not only did the cultivators who entered have their line of sight blocked, even their spiritual sense was affected as well, causing mistakes among the cultivators.
Yang Junshan was currently standing outside of this stretch of fog. He was not in a hurry to enter, instead, he thoughtfully observed the area in front of him that was already shrouded in dense fog, even though his gaze could not see through a distance of thirty meters.
After a while, Yang Junshan started to walk slowly, but he still did not enter the array, but instead walked around the densest fog s, observing them as he walked, his fingers occasionally making calculations, as though he was calculating something.
Yang Junshan walked around the fog’s edges for an incense’s time. Originally, he had no intentions of stopping, but right at this moment, he seemed to have sensed something, he suddenly stopped in his tracks, the fog rolled, and a short dagger suddenly flew out in front of him. If he had not stopped before, the dagger would have stabbed into his body.
When the dagger missed its target, it had already instantly returned, and the sound of angry curses could be heard from within the fog. But right at this moment, Yang Junshan’s face turned cold, and without him knowing, his hand had already drawn the Snake-Necked Bow.
The bowstring trembled like thunder, the Spirit Light Arrow disappeared from the center of the fog, suddenly, a scream and a few screams of rage came out from the fog, Yang Junshan sneered, the Snake-Necked Bow disappeared from his hands in an instant, at the same time, he also quickly left the place.
Just as he was about to leave, several other techniques and abilities broke out from the fog and landed at the place where Yang Junshan was previously at. They exploded with a great momentum and caused the nearby fog to tumble and churn, but they did not harm Yang Junshan at all.
With no one controlling the operation and nearly two hundred years of time, no matter how powerful the formation was, it would still be riddled with holes. No matter how meticulously it was laid out, it would inevitably be riddled with loopholes.
The person who had hidden amongst the fog and ambushed Yang Junshan earlier, had obviously unintentionally discovered a loophole within the fog. In this small area, the fog that originally had the ability to affect cultivators’ spiritual awareness actually could not affect the cultivators in the formation to probe outwards, thus, he had an evil thought in his heart.
Unexpectedly, they met Yang Junshan who was an expert in formation, this flaw was accidentally found by them, but to Yang Junshan, it was clearly found out. Those people’s sneak attacks were dodged by Yang Junshan, and he had even used their negligence to injure one of them heavily with the Snake-Necked Bow.
However, the other side still had many people, so Yang Junshan did not want to waste any time. After counterattacking, he escaped, and at this time, the existence of the fog stopped the people from chasing him.
Yang Junshan walked forward for another five to six kilometers before stopping as he muttered to himself, “Based on my calculations, it should be here!”
Although the formation was still active, there were still loopholes. For others, they could only rely on luck to discover loopholes, but for formation masters, they could easily deduce the loopholes.
Yang Junshan pressed his palms to the ground and closed his eyes to focus, as if he was searching for something. After a while, he suddenly opened his eyes and said: “It’s here, rise!”
The hand that was already pressed on the ground suddenly stopped, and the ground seven feet to his right suddenly turned over. A small triangular flag that was one foot long and covered in dirt rose up from the ground, its surface completely black and covered with mud.
Yang Junshan’s expression became happy, he extended his hand and sucked, causing the small flag to fly back into his hand. The mud fell off revealing the bronze colored flag pole, following that, he shook his hand, causing the mud on the flag to corner up, instantly becoming clean and revealing the pale yellow flag.
As expected, the best equipment to set up the array, to be able to sustain the operation of the array for two hundred years, was undoubtedly the Chess, and this light yellow Chess was one of the key points to forming the fog array, it was also a crucial point.
Yang Junshan took out the small flag. Although it did not cause the entire fog formation to collapse, he was able to hold onto the small flag and enter the fog formation easily.
However, Yang Junshan was not in a rush to enter the array after he received the small flag. Instead, he held the small flag in his hand and studied it carefully, the expression on his face becoming more and more impressed, just from the quality of the small flag, it could be seen that the quality of the array master who made the array flag was much higher than Yang Junshan.
But what made Yang Junshan even more surprised, was that the runes and seals that Yang Junshan had seen on the small array flag was not jusype of fog array, the wondrous inscriptions on the tip of the array flag was actually just a foot long, the surface of the triangle flag was only five inches wide!
This small Chess was not only the base point of the mist array, but it was also the fulcrum point of another type of array formation. As for what kind of array it was, Yang Junshan had never been able to see it, and would probably only be able to notice it after meeting with it.
However, it had been three or four days since the birth of the abode, and quite a few cultivators had entered and exited the mist formation. However, they had never heard that there was another type of formation within the mist formation.
As soon as Yang Junshan entered, the dense fog began to roll and surge from the eight directions on the ground towards him. However, when it had just made it within thirty meters of him, it was as if it was obstructed by an invisible force, and formed a blank space within thirty meters around Yang Junshan.
Yang Junshan seemed to have already expected it, seeing that he just smiled, he slightly moved his mind, his Spirit Sense extending out in all directions, but this time he was not affected by the fog, all the movements in a 60 to 70 meter radius were all captured.
Holding the yellow array flag, Yang Junshan walked towards the depths of the fog without obstructions. Along the way, he had met a few cultivators who were wandering around the fog s, so Yang Junshan did not want to cause trouble.
Even so, Yang Junshan still searched around the area of the fog for two hours before finally finding a cave that was located near the mountainside.
At leasundred meters away, the cultivators could vaguely see each other. But after discovering all of these, Yang Junshan immediately put away the array flag, and also wondered why so many mid and late stage martial arts realm cultivators had gathered around the cave entrance, yet not a single one of them had entered into the cave to investigate?
After exiting the fog, someone immediately shouted: “Another one has arrived. His luck is pretty good to be able to find this place from the fog. Oh, he’s so young, I wonder which family’s young hero he is!”
Everyone’s eyes were focused on Yang Junshan, but he was currently very calm. He did not greet anyone, and only looked foemote place to quietly listen in on the discussions of the people who had come earlier.
“Stay far away from that kid. Maybe he’s a disciple released by some big power for training, so don’t provoke him!”
“Can he compare with the one the day before yesterday? That’s the real God of Slaughter, and it seems like he’s even younger than this brat, and his cultivation has even advanced to the fourth level of martial arts realm. ”
“Shut up, do you want to die? That is one of the top cultivators in the younger generation in Heaven-Shaken Sect. That person rushed into the cave the day before yesterday, perhaps he will come out today. If that person heard your words, would you think of any consequences? ”
Alright, alright, let’s not talk about that anymore. The sun is about to set, and when the sun rises in the sky, the protective magical formation will have the time to open the passage to the immortal cave. Before that, many people have already entered the immortal cave.
Yang Junshan quietly listened to the discussions of the crowd, and understood the news of the cave’s birth more and more, at the same time, he understood the true meaning of the few words he wrote in the jar with the double array.
It was only at this time that someone suddenly shouted that the hour was almost up, and with that said, all the cultivators present started to prepare. It was only at this time that Yang Junshan noticed that although the surrounding area was covered by fog, but in the air above the entrance of the cave, there was not a single bit of fog, and in the clear sky, one could even see the sunset glow.
The ground suddenly began to shake violently. Layer after layer of blocked light curtains were like flowers blooming again, revealing the entrance to the cave.
