Chapter Ninety-Three: Yuntong Hill

Under the leadership of Shuiyue Daoyou, the treasure hunting team, which was full of condensing qi nine-layer cultivation, headed towards the destination "Cloud Copper Hill" at the fastest speed. Because they were worried that the secret of the cave would be discovered by others if the time dragged on, the entire team hurried along the way without any delay except for rest, and it took them seven days before they finally arrived at the "Cloud Copper Hill".

The "Yuntong Hill" is about two thousand miles in radius, located in the southeast of Tiemufang City, and the entire hill is rich in some earth and gold monsters, and there is nothing of value except for some earth and gold monsters. I heard that in the past, Yuntong Hill was a treasure land for cultivating immortals, and various immortal cultivation resources were abundant, especially famous for its abundance of high-grade refining materials "Ziyun Copper". Of course, such a treasure land for cultivating immortals must have been occupied by a great sect of ancient monks at that time. But all this was destroyed in a great war that broke out later, and the cause of the war is of course unknown. After the battle, the entire sect was wiped out, and the entire sect headquarters and the underground spiritual veins were all wiped out by the final self-explosion, leaving only the desolation at this time.

Today's "Cloud Copper Hill" has long become a paradise for low-level demon beasts. Because with the excavation of the "Purple Cloud Copper" vein, the Cloud Copper Hill that had lost its spiritual vein had long become a wasteland in the eyes of the monks, and no one would be willing to come here except for the low-level casual cultivation of the low-level refining material "Cloud Copper" who wanted to try their luck.

Five days later, Lin Quan and the others had already penetrated deep into the middle of the Yuntong Hill under the leadership of Shuiyue Daoyou. With the leadership of Shuiyue Daoyou, everything is going well. In addition, with the help of Lin Quan's maze, he will not be harassed by demon beasts at all when he rests at night, which makes everyone very satisfied with Lin Quan.

"Jin Daoyou, I've been hearing Qingyun Fairy say how good the formation you arranged before, and I didn't believe it very much at first, but this time I was really convinced. You are indeed a master of formations!" In the early hours of the morning, after seeing Lin Quan skillfully retract the formation he had arranged, the Shuiyue Monk couldn't help but open his mouth and praise.

After hearing the words of the Shuiyue Monk, Jin Xiasan, who was not far away, also nodded and smiled politely at Lin Quan. Although he didn't speak, it seemed that Jin Xiasan was extremely satisfied with Lin Quan's contribution.

"Shuiyue Daoist praised it falsely, this simple formation can only be used to confuse low-level demon beasts. The name of the formation master, Jin is really ashamed. When he heard someone praise his formation method again, Lin Quan also explained it humbly.

Anyway, Wang Qingyun knew that he would lay out some simple formations, so Lin Quan didn't plan to hide anything. Besides, instead of hiding and making others suspicious, it is better to take the initiative to show some of what you have learned, so that others can be relieved. After all, what you can't see is what worries people the most, and it's safest to show your clumsy formation technique in front of everyone. In terms of Lin Quan's current formation attainments, it was still very easy to arrange a formation that could not only effectively confuse low-level demon beasts, but also reveal obvious flaws.

"Yes, yes, although there are still many flaws in your formation, Jin Daoyou, but this time we were able to avoid the demon beast so smoothly, but it was all thanks to you. In particular, we are given more time to meditate and rest. Han Daoyou was also smiling.

..................

"Just turn over the hill in front of you and you'll be there, and the cave is in a rift not far behind the hill. After rushing again, Shuiyue Daoyou, who had carefully compared the map, breathed a sigh of relief.

When they saw the expression of Shuiyue Daoyou, everyone's eyes lit up. After so many days of hard work, it's finally coming to an end!

Sure enough, after everyone easily climbed over the hill and dived into a hidden mountain stream not far away, Shuiyue Daoist finally stopped. At this time, a large white fog had completely blocked the way.

"Please follow me, the white mist in front of you is formed by the small maze outside the cave. Although there is no danger for us to really fall into the formation, this kind of thing is still quite troublesome for people who can't understand the way of formation, and it may take a lot of effort to break free from it. Last time, I was chasing a demon beast and accidentally got trapped in this maze, and I couldn't get out after fourteen days of groping. In the end, it was only by reluctantly relying on the 'Phantom Light Bead' that he forcibly opened a shortcut. Looking at the white mist in front of him, Shuiyue Daoyou's face was a little complicated.

"In this way, there will be a friend of Lao Shuiyue, and I will definitely follow. Lin Quan and the others hurriedly nodded yes.

Judging from the romance and demeanor of Shuiyue Daoyou, it seems that he has really suffered a lot in this maze. There are still lessons from the past, and everyone naturally does not want to repeat the mistakes of the past.

"Well, let's go, then. After Shuiyue Daoist calmed down a little, he casually took out a bright pearl-shaped magic weapon. With the infusion of spiritual power, the bead suddenly emitted a circle of bright white glow.

Under the illumination of this pearl light, Shuiyue Daoyou slowly disappeared into the fog in front of him step by step. And this 'Phantom Light Bead' magic weapon does have some power, even if the Water Moon Daoist has entered the mist, the rest of the people outside the array can clearly see the white glow emitted by the 'Phantom Light Bead'. This discovery gave everyone a boost of confidence. After all, going deep into the formation laid out by a condensation stage monk would be very risky, even if it was a phantom formation.

"I'll catch up as soon as I can. Wang Qingyun smiled and was the first to follow.

Han Daoyou and Jin Xiasanren didn't say much, and after secretly glancing at each other, they followed without hesitation. After everyone entered the formation, Lin Quan also hung unhurriedly at the back.

In the mist, everyone was in good spirits. The four people, including Lin Quan, in addition to carefully sacrificing the body protection shield, also put their spiritual sense to the maximum, and while they were paying attention to the direction of the Shuiyue Daoist, they were also carefully observing the situation around them.

Lin Quan, who fell at the end, secretly took out a small mirror magic weapon, and fiddled with various directions in the phantom array from time to time. He had never been so naïve as to think that he could ignore the heroes of the world after learning the way of the 'Weixuan' formation for a few years, not to mention that nine out of ten of the maze formations here were from the hands of a condensation stage ancient monk. Although this formation is just a maze that has been idle for many years and has long been unhosted, it is always a good idea to be careful.

It wasn't until he actually entered the center of the formation that Lin Quan discovered some of the wonders of this formation. It turned out that the white mist in the array could not only affect people's vision, but most importantly, it could also affect the monk's spiritual consciousness at the same time. Imagine that in this case, it is naturally difficult for monks who do not understand the formation to go out of the formation. Fortunately, this formation has long been abandoned for an unknown number of years, and without a monk presiding over it, many of the real changes in the formation have not been shown at all. However, even so, the spiritual sense released by Lin Quan with all his strength could only barely sense the situation within five zhang of his body.

"It's no wonder that even an old ninth-layer cultivator like Shuiyue Daoist would accidentally be trapped in the formation for as long as fourteen days. This unknown maze is really powerful!"

Such a situation made Lin Quan secretly frightened. The strength of his spiritual consciousness is more than twice as strong as that of ordinary cultivators of the same rank. In other words, if the other Qi Condensing Ninth Layer cultivators had not particularly cultivated their spiritual sense, then he would probably be able to sense a range of two or three zhang around his body at most in this maze. In this case, it would indeed be difficult to get out of it without a special magic weapon for formation mages like the 'Phantom Light Bead'.

The only good news is that this maze should be just a small means for the ancient monks to hide the entrance to the cave, so its enveloping scope is not too large. After about two cups of tea, everyone finally successfully passed through the maze under the leadership of Shuiyue Daoist and came to an ancient cave.

When everyone's eyes were focused on the other layer of prohibition in front of him, Lin Quan was also secretly relieved. In just a short period of time, he had barely memorized the passage of the phantom array with the help of the small mirror magic weapon. In this way, it doesn't matter what happens next, he has no worries.
