Chapter 275 - Bubbles

The owner of the cave was a female cultivator, which made Yang Junshan a little surprised.

At this time, the majority of the cultivators who entered with Yang Junshan had already gone deeper into the tunnel, and very quickly, they chose a different path at the fork in the road and disappeared withourace.

Hmm, could it be that the real entrance to the array formation should be at the intersection of the passageway?

A thought flashed through Yang Junshan’s mind, only then did he realise that there were three to four cultivators who were not in a rush to feel the difference, but were instead observing something carefully around the stone wall of the passage.

However, these people still returned in disappointment. The cave had already been open for three to four days, so if there was really something hiding inside the cave entrance, the cultivators that entered before wouldn’t be stupid. How could they give someone else a chance?

Unless they had the same formation master as Yang Junshan!

However, given the scarcity of formation masters in the cultivation world, there were probably less than ten cultivators that entered the cave and there were actually three to four formation masters around.

Yang Junshan similarly placed his hand on the stone wall of the cave. If it was before, even if he was also an array master, he would not have gained anything, but now, he could clearly feel the runes that were currently circulating inside the stone wall. Although he was unable to examine the runes, one thing made him convinced that the array in the cave was a living array, and not a dead array.

The so-called “Death Formation” did not refer to a formation that could not be activated, or a formation that had no one controlling it. It referred to a formation that could not be activated by its own power.

And the so-called “active formation” also referred not only to the large array that had cultivators controlling it, but also to the array that could continuously operate without rest. And this kind of array could operate on its own without the cultivators controlling it, actively attacking the cultivators entering the array.

Since this formation was continuously operating, it would require an extremely large amount of spiritual energy to operate, and since this cave had been able to hide in the ground for such a long time without anyone noticing it, then there was only one possibility. Under this cave, there must be a spirit vein, which would allow the entire cave to constantly operate for nearly two hundred years, and even if no one maintained the formation for such a long time, it would still be able to suppress the cultivators that entered the cave to explore.

However, Yang Junshan was not in a rush, he casually chose a fork in the path and felt his surroundings changing. Yang Junshan couldn’t help but praise the master of the cave’s brilliant formation, although he didn’t think much of it on the surface, when Yang Junshan turned his head back, he saw no fork in the path he had just entered from, and behind him was clearly a stone wall!

He pushed backwards with his hand, but the stone wall waeal, real thing. He pushed again, and this time, it weighed a thousand pounds, but the stone wall still stood.

He looked around, only to see that the cultivator who came in a few steps before Yang Junshan had already disappeared, and only a straight path was left in front of him.

Yang Junshan laughed and walked forward a few steps. “Ta ta”, only the sound of his own footsteps could be heard in the empty passage, and then, the sound of his footsteps suddenly stopped. Yang Junshan astonishingly discovered that the water vapor around him had become heavier, and a layer of faint mist had formed.

Yang Junshan raised his eyebrows. The tunnel ahead of him was already completely covered by the dense fog, and he couldn’t even see the path in front of him clearly. His spirit sense spread out in all directions, but he could only think of a three feet radius around him.

Right at this moment, Yang Junshan’s face suddenly changed, his entire body suddenly stopped, and a sharp howl instantly shot out from above his head, followed by a loud noise that came from over thirty meters away. The violent impact of the spirit energy forced Yang Junshan to revolve the spirit energy in his body to stabilize his body, and he felt a lingering fear in his heart.

It was a magical equipment!

Suddenly, an array flag appeared in Yang Junshan’s hand. Following the appearance of the array flag, the previously visible fog instantly cleared up, and all the fog around ten meters around him was pushed away.

After only three meters, Yang Junshan frowned!

But just at this moment, the mist at the left front suddenly churned, and a stream of light broke through the mist and rushed towards Yang Junshan’s chest.

Fortunately, there was a distance of ten meters between them this time, and’s vigilance did not decrease at all. This time, he dodged with ease, and at the same time, he could clearly see that this set of flowing lights was originally fragments of magical equipment.

But before the attack of the spirit artifact fragment, Yang Junshan did not feel the sound of the artifact shattering, nor did he sense the spirit energy in the air fluctuating during a battle. The surroundings were completely silent, and when he realized that danger was approaching, he was only ten meters away from Yang Junshan!

Where should I go?

Yang Junshan took a few steps forward, left and right, but everything around him was empty. And before the fog rose, this was clearly a stone wall passage.

What kind of formation was it this time? It was so close to the ends of the world? Painting a place arison? “Mount Innerheart?”

Swoosh, another whistling sound came up, just as Yang Junshan was about to dodge, he suddenly realised that the flying speed of the snake kiss bow in the Imperial Censor’s hand was not fast, and was about to shoot it down.

Unexpectedly, with a “pa da” sound, the flying object landed in front of Yang Junshan. It was a severed arm dripping with blood, and blood splattered onto Yang Junshan’s body, but was blocked by an invisible force, and then fell out of thin air towards the ground.

Even so, Yang Junshan could still feel the warm Qi from the blood drops, it was a severed arm that had just been chopped off!

In other words, the danger was right beside him, but he couldn’t see, hear, or feel it. The array flag had already opened a 10 meter gap, but at any time, there was the possibility of killing someone 10 feet away!

However, this was still an underground cave!

Yang Junshan stepped down, but there was no sound. Yang Junshan was startled, but then he laughed!

Seeing that, Yang Junshan brandished the Chess once again, and another ray of spiritual light entered the ground. The Chess in Yang Junshan’s hands continued to wave, and six rays of spiritual light shot out, and in the instant the sixth ray of spiritual light hit the ground, it bounced back!

There was also the magnetic force in the earth!

Yang Junshan laughed, and once again raised his foot to fiercely stomp down three times, this time, a low rumbling sound finally came from deep underground, followed by the ground suddenly shaking, the surrounding mist rolled and trembled, Yang Junshan once again suddenly waved the Chess in his hand, and shouted: “Back!”

The dense fog around him suddenly dissipated, and everything became clear once again. Yang Junshan was still standing in the middle of the cave, with walls on both sides about three feet away.

Although Yang Junshan was already prepared for it, at this moment, he had no choice but to lay down three consecutive defensive techniques in panic around him. Then, he suddenly pulled the Snake-Necked Bow to the side, and a ray of light that flew over from there was shot out.

It was only at this time that Yang Junshan finally let out a sigh of relief, and looked towards the sky above him, only to see a dozen or so gigantic bubbles wrapped in white mist, floating around in the air above the pathway.

At this time, Yang Junshan also understood that after stepping into this passage, when the fog rose, a bubble would be formed around the cultivator’s body, and then the bubble would rise up without him knowing, so no matter which direction the cultivator went in, the bubble would only revolve at the same place, while the cultivator himself would not know.

When a cultivator felt that something was amiss or that he had lost his patience, he would try to use a magic technique to randomly shoot in all directions, and his magic tools to the surroundings, but his magic technique and magic tool could all pierce through the bubble. However, the cultivator would not be able to hear any sound coming from the bubble, and thought that his magic technique and magic tools were like mud thrown into the sea, but he did not know that the random magic techniques and magic tools could very possibly fly into the other bubbles and cause harm to the cultivators inside.

At this moment, the angry roars of cultivators could be heard from within the bubbles from time to time. Sometimes, there were even some venting techniques and abilities, and sometimes, magic tools and treasures would be thrown out and fly in all directions. Some of them would even charge into other bubbles, letting out a miserable scream before the bubbles would explode and a corpse would fall from the sky.

Other than this corpse, there were a few other cultivators’ corpses on the ground. Moreover, it was clear that these cultivators had been searched multiple times.

Yang Junshan laughed, and it seemed like there were quite a few people who broke out of the bubble, naturally, he did not hold back, and searched the corpse of the recently fallen cultivator for a moment, after that he played with the red crystal in his hand and walked back, laughing: “My luck is not bad, red vein crystal iron, this iigh grade spirit material, giving it to Hu Niu to refine his own life demon weapon is suitable, but right now he is obviously not in need of it.”

Yang Junshan raised his head to look, there were only a dozen or so cultivators that entered the cave with him before, and the passage he was in only had four or five people in total. It was likely that the cultivators in these bubbles were not the only cultivators that entered this time, but there were also the people who had been trapped here since they entered the cave a few days ago.

But what were these bubbles? Was it a sacred art or a formation technique? However, there were indeed some similarities between this formation and the one used in the painting arison. It was likely that the owner of the cave had a new use for formations.

At this moment, another bubble slowly landed on the ground, and the white fog surrounding the bubble slowly dissipated. At this time, another bubble slowly landed on the ground, and the white fog surrounding the bubble slowly dissipated.
