Chapter 535 - Catch Up



Chapter 535 – Catch Up

Senior brother Yu suddenly rushed towards the array formation on the ice slope, his figure created a long shadow in mid air, and the afterimages separated themselves in an instant, as if they had their own consciousness, they rushed into the Five Elements Lightning Light’s spirit formation from different directions.

This was one of the secret supernatural powers of the Purple Wind Sect, “Phantom Evasion”. It allowed one to use the extremely fast speed to create illusions that were exactly the same as one’s real body. It would attack the opponent from different directions, or even escape, making it difficult to guard against it.

The originally calm array formation was instantly filled with lightning. Bolts of thunder and lightning flashed on the surface of the array, but the thick lightning bolts were unable to illuminate the interior of the array.

Hou Fengyu’s facial expression changed, but in the end, he still decided to help out. But right at this moment, two gigantic palms made of origin energy rose from the formation first, and then the two palms clashed in midair with a loud bang, causing invisible ripples to spread out in all directions. Even the flashing lightning on the barrier disappeared in an instant.

Hou Fengyu recognized that one of the palm strikes was the Purple Wind Sect’s inherited “Phantom Palm”. This spiritual art and “Phantom Escape” had been passed down under the same Precious Techniques and Divine Powers.

This Phantom Palm could instantly transform into countless palm shadows to attack the enemy, and every palm shadow carried a certain amount of power, making it extremely difficult to capture. At the same time, it could gather all the palm shadows together, and at the same time, it would stack the power of each palm shadow together, pushing the power of this ability to the limit.

Previously, Senior Martial Brother Yu had obviously used the latter method in an attempt to condense his full strength and defeat his opponent in one fell swoop. Unfortunately, he had underestimated his opponent’s methods.

“Senior Brother Yu, you …”

Hou Fengyu looked in shock at Senior Brother Yu as he asked in disbelief.

The Senior Martial Brother Yu before him looked extremely pathetic. His clothes were tattered and his body was covered in scorched black holes. Smoke was still rising from his body, and from time to time, there would even be crackling sounds of electricity flashing.

Senior brother Yu reached his hand out and pinched a lightning bolt, causing it to explode in his hand. Then, he let out a sigh and said, “Don’t worry, I just met the palm from the person in the formation. Although this person’s technique was slightly weaker than mine, his palm strike was powerful and extremely powerful.

Hou Fengyu’s spirit shook as he said, “Then I’ll join hands with senior brother. Let’s break through the formation again!”

Senior brother Yu glanced at him, then shook his head, “I’ve sparred with master array masters in the sect before, and the feeling this formation gives me is not inferior to the spirit array that master array masters had. And just now, when I exchanged blows with others, it was also because I didn’t go deep into the formation that I was able to retreat in time.

“Senior, you mean to say that this person is able to use formations to block our alliance?”

Senior brother Yu shot him a glance and said, “What I’m saying is that if that brat truly falls into the hands of the people in the formation, that person can be threatened like this, and not willing to fight with me.”

Seeing the unwillingness on Hou Fengyu’s face, senior brother Yu said in a deep voice, “We are here to look for someone, not to destroy this formation. In a situation where we are not sure if that kid is in their hands, we cannot make too many enemies. Junior brother Hou, you must know, this is the extreme north ice plains, not the Xi Zhou.”

As he spoke up to here, a trace of doubt appeared on Senior Brother Yu’s face. Hou Fengyu observed his expression and asked, “Senior Brother, is there something amiss?”

Senior brother Yu shook his head and said, “It’s nothing. I just feel that this formation is a bit familiar and seems to be similar to the inheritance of our sect’s formations. It’ity that neither of us know the formation, otherwise we might be able to see the source of this formation.”

Jia Hui who was in the array was already prepared to fight a big battle with Yu Jie. Previously, when she was fighting with Yu Yu, she used the power of the array to actually suppress Yu Shi Xiong whose cultivation was one level higher than him, and that was while Jia Hui was still trying to control the array.

If he could completely unleash the power of the formation, Jia Hui would very much like to know if he could defend against the combined attacks of two Gangli Accumulation Realm cultivators by himself.

Unexpectedly, after the person who charged into the formation had retreated, he said something to the other person. In the end, the cultivator that came first seemed to forget about the formation and the two of them actually left without looking back.

Monk Jia Hui’s raging fighting spirit was extinguished by a bucket of cold water. She could not help but be suspicious, could it be that the two of them still wanted to ask for help?

But what Jia Hui did not know was that, the reason why the two of them left was because he did not use the cultivators she had captured previously to threaten the two of them. Instead, the two of them thought that the person they were looking for was not here, and if Jia Hui knew what the two were thinking, she did not know how she would react to it.

Yang Junshan had been cultivating his Dianthus for two whole days already, and the difference between the auras around his body had already been maintained at a steady pace, but the rising and falling frequency was getting faster and faster. Jia Hui had never trained in this technique, so she did not know if this was a good or bad thing.

When the third day arrived, the first thing Jia Hui felt was that her surroundings seemed to have become a lot warmer, which made him a lot more interested. However, he quickly discovered the reason;

When Jia Hui found the stone bottle that Yang Junshan had made with the thousand-year Frozen Ice Stone, she discovered that the ice silkworm was actually spitting silk inside.

After this ice silkworm was caught by Yang Junshan, he searched everywhere on the ice plains for the nests of savage beasts and desolate beasts. It was true that Yang Junshan had obtained quite a few heaven and earth treasures from them, but the ice silkworm had also absorbed a large amount of ice origin energy from all kinds of ice holes. This time, it had also absorbed all of the ice spirit energy contained in this piece of profound ice for tens of thousands of years.

According to legends, the ice silkworm would spin silk and form a cocoon every fifty years, but this continuous absorption of ice elemental energy accelerated its growth.

It was said that the thousand-year Ice Silkworm could at most spit out a single Ice Silkworm that was five hundred feet long, but in reality, most of the time, it would be unable to do so due to the lack of Essence. To be able to spit ouundred feet long Ice Silkworm was already considered good.

Of the five balls of Ice Silkworm silk in Yang Junshan’s hands, the longest two were only sixty meters while the other two were only thirty meters. It could be seen that before Yang Junshan was killed, this ice silkworm’s growth wasn’t going to be very good either.

When Shi nationality’s cultivators reached the Grand Scholar Realm, they wished to have the cassock protecting them. Furthermore, there were many sacred arts that were passed down in the Shi nationality that were mostly related to the cassock, as the disciple of Shi nationality, Jia Hui naturally wished to have her own cassock as well.

In fact, before Jia Hui had advanced to the Grand Warrior Realm, she had already started preparing for wearing the cassock. Now that she had obtained Yang Junshan’s promise with the thousand-year Ice Silk, not only would his cassock be completed soon, its quality would also improve due to this.

However, Jia Hui’s good mood did not remain for long. A streak of cold light broke through the void and directly slashed across the Five Elements Lightning Light’s spirit formation. The sword light was like a fish swimming, and before Jia Hui could react, it had already exited the great formation.

This person’s cultivation was not inferior to the Purple Wind Sect cultivator who tried to charge through the formation earlier!

Jia Hui instantly made her judgement, and when she looked towards the outside of the array, he saw three beams of light flying out from behind the ice mountain, directly landing outside the array.

Qi Min and the other two looked at the array, their expressions became serious. The three of them were the Successor Disciples of the Snow Wind Sword Sect, and their experience was not inferior to the two Purple Wind Sect cultivators from before. Adding on their probing from before, they knew that the array was not to be underestimated.

“It should be here, I’ve long heard that Yang Junshan is proficient in array formations, this array has five elemental energies circulating, and the array also has lightning nurturing it. It’s exactly the same as the array that Yang Junshan built in the clan encampment, it’s definitely Yang Junshan’s work!”

Junior brother Zhao said loudly: “Then what are we waiting for. Since this guy is setting up the array here, he has obviously found the Profound Ice Stone. He might be cultivating the Dianthus right now, so we should take this chance to kill him to prevent him from escaping again.”

Junior Brother Qiao became more cautious, and said: “Previously, when Senior Brother Qi was probing, he also saw, that the formation did not seem to operate on its own, but was actually being controlled by someone. If that Yang Junshan is really cultivating his Dianthus, then that means that there should be one of his companions in the array right now.”

Junior Martial Brother Zhao was startled and said, “This kid is quite lucky.”

Junior Brother Qiao did not know whether he was saying that it was considered good luck that Yang Junshan had been able to find the Great Frozen Tears, or if there was someone protecting him and helping him to cultivate a secret technique.

Qi Min said coldly: “Since we have already found it, then there is no reason for us to leave here, regardless of whether or not someone is taking charge of this array, we will still have to fight. At the very least, the array formation still means that one person inside cannot escape because of training in a secret technique, like what Junior Brother Zhao said, this is a great opportunity!”

Junior Brother Qiao wanted to say something, but Qi Min had already brought his Imperial Sword Technique down onto the large array, causing a rainbow colored light to suddenly appear, followed by thunderous sounds. The ice mountains in the surroundings started to collapse due to the loud sound, forming a large range of landslides.

Without saying a word, Junior Brother Zhao followed Qi Min and entered the array. Seeing that, Junior Brother Qiao no longer had any other choice, he waved the feather fan in his hand, and floated into the Five Elements Lightning Light spirit formation like a feather.

At the same time, the numerous savage beasts and desolate beasts gathered outside the glacier seemed to have received some sort of order. They howled in unison and charged into the glacier like tidewaters.
