Chapter 175 - Fruits of A Hundred Year Old Plan, Reaped By Ye
In the Juetian Mountain Range.
Wan Boxiang had just flown out from the underground exit with his people when he felt a scorching aura approaching.
Looking up, he saw a massive meteor, burning with flames, descending towards them.
Wan Boxiang’s eyes widened in shock.
He rapidly retreated.
However, the others following him were not so fortunate.
Among dozens of demon cultivators, only a few with better luck, who were slightly farther away, survived. The rest died instantly, their bodies reduced to ashes.
Wan Boxiang was deeply shaken.
Suddenly, he heard a cold, clear voice.
“Are you from the Crimson Yin Cliff?”
At these words, Wan Boxiang looked up.
He saw a stunningly beautiful woman, like a fairy descending from the heavens, looking down at him with icy disdain.
Wan Boxiang responded evasively, “Who are you?”
The woman was Yun Wuci, who was not known for her patience.
Especially when she was unable to find Ye Yu.
Seeing Wan Boxiang’s reluctance to answer honestly, a hint of murderous intent flashed in her eyes.
Her right hand lightly tapped, and a streak of silver light appeared instantly.
Even though Wan Boxiang tried to dodge, it was too late, he did not avoid it completely.
Wan Boxiang’s shoulder was instantly pierced through with a bloody hole.
The powerful impact caused him to lose his balance. He crashed heavily to the ground.
Seeing Wan Boxiang was not dead, Yun Wuci sneered, “I didn’t expect you to be so fortunate. But remember this: answer my questions honestly. Understand?”
Wan Boxiang, lying on the ground, coughed up a mouthful of blood, struggling to get up.
He had never felt so humiliated.
After all, he was a peak Integration cultivator, only a step away from the Tribulation Crossing realm.
He had dominated the Juetian Mountain Range for a thousand years, and had never suffered a defeat.
Yet now, he was so easily wounded by a woman.
This was an utter disgrace!
Moreover, the most crucial point was, this was his own domain!
All great formation masters have a common flaw: they are highly self-assured.
In their eyes, if they are well-prepared, even those just a few realms above them can be easily killed.
But this is not merely arrogance, it is a fact.
Once the grand formation is activated, killing enemies across realms is not a dream!
Wan Boxiang activated the nearby formations with his mind while buying time by speaking, “Fairy, I am Wan Boxiang, the sect leader of Crimson Yin Cliff. May I ask what brings you here?”
Yun Wuci’s cold voice cut through, “Where is Ye Yu? Hand him over, and I will leave immediately!”
Hearing this, Wan Boxiang was stunned.
Who is Ye Yu?
Is he so important?
Find him and you will leave?
If that were the case, you should have said so earlier. Had you mentioned this before, I would have truly given him to you and avoided this current state of injury.
Seeing that Wan Boxiang did not respond immediately, Yun Wuci’s impatience flared again!
The full pressure of Tribulation Crossing realm was unleashed, causing Wan Boxiang to kneel on one knee on the spot.
“What’s there to think about? Release him and I will leave. If you don’t, I will kill you now!”
Her icy voice echoed throughout the area.
Wan Boxiang’s breathing became rapid.
A man who had always prided himself on his strength, could not bear the humiliation of kneeling before a woman!
He immediately slammed his fist into the ground.
Though the Juetian Mountain Range had already turned into a sea of fire, most of the formations were still intact.
From the center of Wan Boxiang’s punch, brilliant light spread out at an incredible speed.
On the surface of the Juetian Mountain Range, countless strange formation patterns appeared.
Then, the light gathered once more and came together under Wan Boxiang’s feet.
“You should feel honored. This Dragon Vein Annihilation Array was intended for the leader of the Azure Cloud Sect. But unexpectedly, it’s being used on you. You can take pride in that!”
A sinister grin appeared on Wan Boxiang’s face.
Immediately after, countless giant dragon phantoms surged out from the ground formations.
They circled around, glaring at Yun Wuci with eager intent.
But that wasn’t all. As the dragons moved, starlight began to flicker around them.
Under the glow of these stars…Yun Wuci could clearly feel the spiritual energy within her body seemed to have solidified.
Even immobile.
Yun Wuci raised an eyebrow slightly.
Is this the power of formations?
It can even harness the veins of an entire mountain.
Interesting!
…
Meanwhile, inside Crimson Yin Cliff.
The wails of countless restless souls echoed throughout the sect. It was as if the scene of hell itself.
Surrounded by the souls, more than eighty percent of the demonic cultivators were pressed to the ground, having their flesh devoured.
Ye Yu strolled leisurely through the Crimson Yin Cliff, observing everything around him.
Tsk tsk tsk.
To be honest, there aren’t many people here in Crimson Yin Cliff. It looks like there are only around two hundred or so.
If there are only this few, it might not be enough to satisfy Slaughter Immortal’s hunger for a meal.
In fact, Ye Yu didn’t consider. Just now, the Second Elder Qiao Jin and Third Elder Deng Yuanqiu of Crimson Yin Cliff had taken over three hundred demonic cultivators to ambush Li Nian’an and the others.
As a result, they suffered heavy casualties. Less than one-tenth returned.
And then, Wan Boxiang took away several dozen more.
With only two hundred or so remaining in the sect now, it was already quite good.
The underground space of Crimson Yin Cliff was not very large.
Ye Yu quickly made a round, finally stopping outside a room.
Inside were three layers of barriers.
And judging by the looks, the craftsmanship seemed quite good. Much better than that Wu Renbi of the Lan Kingdom.
To set up so many barriers in this place, there must be something valuable.
Ye Yu immediately began to dismantle the formation barriers.
With the completion of the Eternal Star Diagram, there were no barriers that he could not break.
In just a few breaths, the three layers of barriers were all breached.
Ye Yu walked straight in, only to find it was a room.
On the shelf were a dozen or so storage rings.
Just as Ye Yu was about to approach and inspect them, the ground began to shake violently.
After a long time, it slowly stopped.
Ye Yu couldn’t help but look up, thinking to himself: Are things up there getting that intense?
Perhaps it’s better to wait before going out, to avoid getting caught in the crossfire.
Ye Yu waved his hand to disperse the dust raised by the tremors.
Then he walked over and picked up the storage rings, infusing them with spiritual energy.
Upon examining them, Ye Yu was instantly astonished.
Among the dozen or so storage rings, except for one containing spirit stones and cultivation techniques, the rest were filled with rare materials and treasures.
Among them, Dark Abyss Flowers, Soul-Steel Bamboo, and Black Demon Mushrooms were countless.
Ye Yu guessed these items were likely all from Baizhang Dao. Wan Boxiang must have painstakingly acquired these from there.
Tsk tsk tsk.
He probably never imagined in his dreams that all the precious treasures he accumulated over a hundred years would all end up in the hands of someone named Ye in a single day!
Ye Yu was very pleased, clearing the shelf of all the storage rings.
Then he searched the room.
After confirming there was nothing else of value, he prepared to leave.
Unexpectedly, the door to the room suddenly opened.
Wan Boxiang strode in.
The two locked eyes.
Both were utterly surprised.
Not a trace of defense!
