Chapter 271 - Sunset Clouds



Chapter 271 – Sunset Clouds

“At the beginning, people thought that it was just a cave for formation masters. However, from the information that I received today, the owner of this cave was most likely a realms of life cultivator before he passed away, and I’m even a formation master!”

Formation master, of course!

Ouyang Xulin was still talking nonstop, but Yang Junshan was almost certain that the Sunset Ridge’s cave must have come from a formation master.

Maybe it would be difficult for a formation master to use an array to hide the spirit materials mine beneath the Sunset Ridge, but Yang Junshan knew that this Master Xu Xia was probably the mysterious cultivator who had mastered the “Formation Burst” technique. If he could use this kind of technique on a large-scale array formation, he could usrray formation that was two to three times stronger than the original one, and that would not necessarily exceed the limits of a normal formation master.

“Where is Senior Brother Liu Zhifei now? This one will first reunite with the third team, then decide on the next step!” Yang Junshan said casually.

Ouyang Xulin was startled for a moment, then said: “third team, I’m afraid it has already dispersed long ago, at that time, third team was also one of the first sects to discover the cave’s appearance, but when they attacked Tan Xi Sect, they still failed and returned with two cultivators. After that, as the competition for the cave dwelling escalated, Senior Brother Liu Zhifei and a few other disciples of our sect broke into the cave dwelling together yesterday.

Speaking to here, Ouyang Xulin smacked his forehead and said: “Oh yeah, there’s one more thing. When Senior Brother Liu was entrusted by you to deliver those strange bone artifacts, he even made me afraid of death demons.

Yang Junshan was slightly startled, he opened the nameplate on his body and saw that there were indeed more than ten human heads inside. If he only needed another two, he would be able to exchange them for a Middle Ranked Spirit Weapon from the Heaven-Shaken Sect.

After bidding farewell to Ouyang Xulin, just as Yang Junshan was about to leave, he saw Ouyang Xulin chasing after him from behind, and said: “I forgot to tell you, according to the news obtained from the sect, Sunset Ridge’s cave had already caught the attention of Junior Master Chen Ji, and the cave is no longer just terrifying because of the formation traps, Adept Realm Cultivator can enter at any time.”

After leaving Sha Tian Village, Yang Junshan thought for a while, but didn’t rush to Sunset Ridge immediately. Instead, he first released two sound transmission talismans and waited outside the village for around the time it takes to brew a cup of tea. In the end, only one talisman in the sky returned.

An hour later, Wu Shuo’s coarse voice came out, and said: “Your cultivation has advanced?”

Yang Junshan nodded, and laughed: “I originally thought that I wouldn’t be able to contact you, but you are actually nearby, and I didn’t expect that I would actually be able to find the Sound Transmission Talisman.”

“The group I am in is currently passing by,” Wu Shuo said. “Are you planning to go to the cave where the Sunset Ridge was born?”

“That’s right, I’ve already heard the general information about that place, but I still plan on asking for your opinion. From what I see, that cave should be the resting place of a formation master, and there should be some inheritance there. I want to try my luck.”

“That place is very dangerous,” Wu Shuo said cautiously. “Although my cultivation has only recovered to the second stage of the Power Wu Realm, my fourth stage vision and feeling is still there. Even when my cultivation is at its peak, I would not dare to barge into that cave.”

Yang Junshan knew that the Witch Clan members had a natural instinct for danger. When Wu Shuo’s cultivation was at its peak, he was an existence that could use the power of resentment to imprison the Adept Realm Cultivator for an instant, and even he felt danger from it. This made Yang Junshan even more cautious in his heart, but from start to finish, he had never wavered his resolve to explore the cave.

Yang Junshan changed the topic and laughed: “Brother Wu’s entire body is surrounded by dense Qi, it seems like the third layer of cultivation is just around the corner.”

Wu Shuo knew that Yang Junshan had made his decision, and did not try to persuade him anymore, but instead praised Yang Junshan a little more, and laughed: “Actually, I can recover to the third stage at any time, it is just that the natural increase in my cultivation is too shocking, I might reveal my identity, or when I have time, I will also take a long leave and return to Xishan Village to train.”

Yang Junshan nodded and said: “Advancing iuge matter. Oh right, what’s the situation with Jiu Li?”

Wu Shuo laughed: “Not bad, that crazy girl, if it weren’t for the fact that she was recently about to finish refining her life witch weapon and focus all her energy on it, she would have earned more than five meritorious human heads. Her team is still considered sensible and did not bring anyone to participate in the exploration of the Sunset Ridge’s cave, they should be on patrol at the border right now.”

“That’s good!”

Right, now that Jiu Li has four people’s worth of contribution points, I also have three here. The items that we got from the Heaven-Shaken Sect are useless to us, I heard that there are people who can figure out the way in secret, and gather the contribution points of everyone.

Individuals could only use their own battle achievements to exchange items from the Heaven-Shaken Sect. If their battle achievements could be compared to the pieced together, then the like would be fine. But if seven or eight people could gather eighteen battle merits, and then exchange it for a set of spirit arts to be passed on to each other, wouldn’t that mean that a set of spirit arts would be passed down to seven or eight people?!

However, Yang Junshan had obtained three military achievements from Liu Zhifei before he had even reported his military achievements to the sect, which was why he had transferred them onto Yang Junshan. As an inner disciple of the Heaven-Shaken Sect, he had almost confirmed who the direct disciple would be, and he assumed that Liu Zhifei had a way to help him get rid of the other person’s military achievements, so it was up to him to decide if he was willing or not.

Wu Shuo’s group also had a mission. The two quickly separated and Yang Junshan headed in the direction of the Sunset Ridge.

The low hills, the chaotic spiritual energy, the heavy fog, the occasional explosions of spells and divine abilities coming from an unknown direction, the clashing of magic tools, the sound of metal colliding with metal, the hurriedly rushing Martial Realm Cultivator who were all on guard, and one or two miserable screams rang out, causing the cultivators who entered the Sunset Ridge to be on tenterhooks.

When Yang Junshan rushed to the Sunset Ridge, it was already in the afternoon. The Sunset Ridge’s range was extremely large, but the strange atmosphere that pervaded the entire region of the Sunset Ridge made Yang Junshan secretly wary.

However, Yang Junshan did not rush to the location of Sunset Ridge’s cave from the start. Instead, he frowned and looked at the faint mist that was enveloping Sunset Ridge.

Furthermore, the chaos of spiritual energy in the Sunset Ridge was not only because of the cultivators’ secret battles. It was because of the chaos of spiritual energy that had a certain effect on the cultivators’ Spiritual Sense detection. This was also because the array had gone out of control.

Under the situation where the array had lost control, the fog could cover more than half of the Sunset Ridge, and the disordered spirit energy could affect the cultivators’ spirit sense. If the array had not lost control, then what degree of power would the array reach?

Yang Junshan’s fear grew even stronger. In the process of going deeper into the Sunset Ridge, Yang Junshan encountered three to four cultivators rushing towards him, each of them looking at him with a cautious and greedy gaze. The experiences from two lives told Yang Junshan, even if he showed a shred of relief, they would probably kill him immediately!

After passing througill, suddenly there was the sound of fighting. Yang Junshan’s expression froze, seeing that the two sides were in a battle, one side was supporting two cultivators with difficulty, it was obvious that they were from the Mengyu County, and the other four that were constantly approaching were obviously Ling Zhang County’s cultivators. There was another cultivator on the ground that was seriously injured and on the verge of death, similarly from the Mengyu County’s side.

Seeing that Yang Junshan had suddenly turned around from behind the hill, the offense of the two parties was obviously delayed, the two cultivators of Mengyu County were overjoyed and immediately shouted for help, while one of the cultivators of the other side immediately took out one of them and went to guard Yang Junshan’s location.

Yang Junshan stretched out his hand and clenched his fist, causing the Snake-Necked Bow to fall into his palm. The bowstring opened up, and a golden arrow appeared in his hand, indicating that the power of the Snake-Necked Bow had increased yet again.

The bowstring let out a startled cry, the Spirit Light Arrow had already reached the front of his body. The Ling Zhang County cultivator who was on guard was obviously shocked, he did not expect the magical equipment in Yang Junshan’s hand to attack so quickly, and the range of his attack had far exceeded the range of an ordinary Martial Realm Cultivator’s magical equipment envoy.

All of a sudden, this cultivator used almost all his strength to defend against this spiritual light arrow, but unexpectedly, it exploded the moment it came into contact with the spiritual light arrow. Although the power of this spiritual light arrow was not weak, it was far from what he could imagine.

The Ling Zhang County cultivators immediately became more confident, and couldn’t help but look down on Yang Junshan. With greed in his heart, they rushed forward, thinking that if they could kill Yang Junshan, they could at least obtain a magic tool!

Unexpectedly, before he could even take a step forward, another spiritual light arrow had already come whistling towards him, along with a soul-stirring howl.

The Ling Zhang County cultivator exclaimed in his heart, he was fast, he struck out and destroyed the Spirit Light Arrow once again, but the screaming in his ears did not stop, he raised his head to look, and his heart immediately broke. He saw the Snake-Necked Bow in Yang Junshan’s hand unceasingly opening and closing, and one Spirit Light Arrow after another flew over, without even his time to catch his breath.

The Ling Zhang County cultivator quickly retreated, but did not dare to turn around. He could only block Yang Junshan’s continuous spirit light arrows while shouting for his comrades to help.
