Chapter 194 - 421

Chapter 421 - Scarlet Blade Mane

  His eyes swept over this Jindan Cave Mansion in front of him.

  Looking at the lush spiritual fields and medicinal gardens in front of him.

  He Song frowned slightly.

  It always felt as if he had forgotten something.

  Soon, after some pondering, a glimmer of light gradually flashed under He Song's eyes as well.

  Spiritual qi!

  That's right!

  It was aura!

  Between the sweep of He Song's gaze, he had already discovered a problem.

  In this cave, apart from the Big Dipper Divine Thunder Formation that he had laid down, at a cursory glance, there were no other formations.

  However, those spiritual rice that had been growing in the lush green fields and medicinal gardens, as well as the spiritual medicines, the spiritual qi that they absorbed on a daily basis, where did it come from?

  To say that the previous Jindan Defense Formation, which had completely dissipated, had its own spirit gathering effect, He Song's eyesight would have been able to see it a long time ago.

  However, with He Song's previous three months of study, that Jindan Defense Formation is specialized in defense and has no other effects.

  The effect of spirit gathering, naturally, is also not.

  This point, He Song is very sure.

  Moreover, even if He Song was not well educated, he did not see through that Jindan Defense Formation's effect of gathering spirits.

  Then today.

  That Jindan Defense Formation has completely dissipated, and its spirit gathering effect should also disappear.

  He Song stepped into the cave here, and several hours had already passed.

  In such a long period of time, the concentration of spirit qi in this place will surely begin to slowly dissipate.

  But what about today?

  He Song's eyes looked around, but his heart reinforced the speculation in his mind.

  Nowadays, in True Lord Xingyan's cave, the concentration of spiritual qi is still the same as when He Song just stepped in, without the slightest decrease.

  In such a situation, the question arises.

  This place spiritual qi, and why is able to in the absence of the existence of gathering spirit array condensation and not scattered it?

  With a hint of suspicion in his heart, He Song explored his divine sense and soon began to continuously scan the Jindan cave, as well as the situation around the cave.

  At first, He Song found nothing.

  After all, previously, he had already used his divine sense to scan the entire cave, and did not find any abnormalities.

  However, as time passed, as He Song continued to scan carefully, he found some clues.

  "What a Star Rock True Lord."

  "What a small spirit gathering formation."

  "A good Foundation Establishment Concealment Formation."

  "If I hadn't sensed something wrong before I left, I'm afraid I would have really been concealed."

  Divine sense swept through the entire cave, and after sensing a hint of clues, He Song quickly followed the trend and sought out the reason for the abnormality of this place.

  Inside True Lord Xingyan's cave.

  In addition to a Jindan Defense Formation as an external defense, there was also a small Spirit Gathering Formation.

  There was also a small Spirit Gathering Formation, which was used to gather spiritual qi to supply the spiritual fields and medicinal gardens in the cave.

  At the same time, in order to hide the existence of the small Spirit Gathering Formation, True Lord Xingyan had also purposely placed a Foundation Establishment Concealment Formation in the cave mansion.

  It was as if back then.

  When He Song was in the Bamboo Mountain Immortal Workshop, he would cover the miniature Spirit Gathering Formation in the middle of his house with a Misty Tracer Formation to prevent it from being probed by others.

  This True Lord Xingyan was doing the same thing in his own cave.

  At the same time, after realizing the reason for this place's abnormality, He Song's heart also gained some more understanding about the reason why this cave had not been found for a long time.

  I'm afraid that most of the reasons why this cave was not discovered by Meng Guan and Wei Fan until five years ago should lie in this Foundation Establishment Realm's concealment array.

  With that Jindan Realm's defense formation already having a layer of concealment for the cave.

  In addition to this Foundation Establishment Realm's concealment formation, there was a deeper layer of concealment.

  It was the fundamental reason why the cave had not been discovered for a long time.

  At the same time, He Song also had a number in mind about the concealment effect of the Luo Smoke Formation and other Foundation Establishment Realm concealment formations.

  He himself was now a Jindan True Lord, but without careful examination, he was still basically unaware of this kind of Foundation realm concealment formation.

  Only in the case of a careful search would one be able to detect the existence of a Foundation Establishment Realm concealment formation in this place.

  Therefore, as long as he had laid down the Luo Smoke Formation, it was basically impossible for a Jindan True Lord to be able to detect the Luo Smoke Formation, as well as the existence of other things under the Luo Smoke Formation's shroud.

  In other words.

  As long as he was not particularly unlucky, the medicinal gardens that He Song had set up outside would basically be unlikely to be discovered by a Jindan True Lord by chance.

  After realizing this point, He Song had a better idea of whether or not to replace the medicinal gardens he had previously built with the Heavenly Dipper Divine Thunder Formation to guard them.

  It seemed that with the Luo Smoke Formation covering those medicinal gardens, it could almost be called foolproof.

  There was no need for him to spend a huge amount of money to set up the Jindan Formation and consume a large amount of spirit stones for nothing.

  After realizing this point, He Song pondered for a moment, and ultimately did not dismantle the two formations.

  Instead, he looked towards the Jindan Defense Grand Formation that had completely dissipated, but whose array discs and flags were still buried deep in the ground.

  This small Spirit Gathering Formation.

  As well as a concealment formation of the Foundation Establishment Realm.

  For He Song, it was basically not very useful.

  However, for Meng Guan and Wei Fan, it was a rare opportunity.

  It was impossible for He Song to expose his own formation cultivation and personally go and lay down formations for his two best friends.

  However, he could take out the spirit stones in these two formations and leave them here.

  Perhaps, it would also be possible for Meng Guan and Wei Fan to use this place as their cave residence and operate more in this place.

  An original Jindan cave, with Meng Guan and Wei Fan's current cultivation of Foundation Establishment Great Perfection, I'm afraid it wouldn't be too shabby to use this place as their cave.

  If the two of them had the intention, I'm afraid that these two formations would also be able to be utilized by them.

  A formation like this that had dissipated due to a lack of spirit stones could be activated by placing spirit stones in the formation.

  Although it was only activated and not manipulated by a person, the functions that it should have would still be activated along with it.

  For example, gathering spirit, concealment, defense, etc. These functions do not need to distinguish between enemy and self.

  As for the attacking and destroying functions, they would not be activated because no one would be able to manipulate them.

  These two formations, with their Spirit Gathering and Concealment functions, only needed to be activated and could be used, so there was no need to worry about anything.

  Thinking of this.

  He Song looked at Meng Guan, who was still continuing to break the formation.

  He also looked at Wei Fan who was still recovering his magic power.

  A thought soon flashed through his mind.

  Perhaps, he could leave the Heavenly Dipper Divine Thunder Formation that he had previously set up in this place for Meng Guan and Wei Fan.

  As for himself, he would take away that Jindan Defense Formation in this place.

  In this way, by exchanging the two, one would not be at a disadvantage to these two close friends of his.

  With the Heavenly Dipper Divine Thunder Formation sheltering them, the two of them would not need to worry about safety even if they were to break through their Jindan right here.

  Moreover.

  Meng Guan and Wei Fan, who had obtained this Big Dipper Divine Thunder Formation of theirs, were also unable to take it away.

  They did not know the way of formation, even if they took away the formation disk and the formation flag, they could not restore this formation at all.

  Without the formation method, if there were only the formation disk and the formation flag, this Big Dipper Divine Thunder Formation would not be able to be sold, and no one would buy it.

  In such a situation.   

  Either they would rely on this Big Dipper Divine Thunder Formation and make this place their future cave residence.

  Either that, they would destroy this Heavenly Dipper Divine Thunder Formation, as well as the two formations in the cave, and leave this place completely.

  Other than that, there was no other way.

  As for He Song.

  On the other hand, he had used this to obtain a Jindan Defense Formation.

  As long as the array disk and array flag hidden in the ground are taken away, and then with the previous three months of his own research on this array, he restored this array in another place.

  If you study it later.

  I'm afraid that I will be able to quickly master this formation, making it the second Jindan formation that He Song has learned.

  With this formation in his body, and the Big Dipper Divine Thunder Formation to complement it, He Song is afraid that he will be able to build his own Golden Dan Formation.

  He Song was afraid that he would be able to build a real Jindan cave for himself.

  Thinking of this.

  He Song's mind moved, and a formation disk, as well as several formation flags, quickly appeared in He Song's hands.

  This was the array disk and array flags of the Jindan defense array that True Lord Xingyan had laid down.

  Since He Song had already mastered the Heavenly Dipper Divine Thunder Formation, a Jindan Grand Formation, even after only three months of study, He Song was already confident that he would be able to rearrange such a Jindan Defense Grand Formation elsewhere.

  Because of this, He Song would immediately collect all the array disks and flags after making a decision in his mind.

  After placing the Jindan Defense Formation's array disk and array flag into the storage bag, He Song also secretly put them into the storage bag before.

  He Song also secretly wrote down the location where they were previously located.

  He only waited for the time of subsequent formations, then carefully recalled, and was sure to be able to restore this formation.

  After doing all this, He Song concealed himself.

  Only then did He Song hide himself, then took a step out and left the Big Dipper Divine Thunder Formation he had set up from another direction.

  Moreover, he also put all the spirit stones in the Big Dipper Divine Thunder Formation into his own storage bag.

  And also with He Song's departure.

  As well as the sudden disappearance of the spirit stones in the Heavenly Dipper Divine Thunder Formation.

  The light shield that had originally been resisting the burning of Meng Guan's Spirit Flame also violently dissipated at this moment.

  At the same time.

  A surprised cry also quickly sounded in He Song's ears.

  "Brother Wei quickly get up and take pills to restore your mana, this formation is broken!"

  With Meng Guan's soft voice crying out, He Song obviously sensed Wei Fan, who was sitting on the ground to recover his mana, tremble, and then he took out the pills from his own storage bag and took them.

  On the side, Meng Guan also took the pills and restored his mana.

  After the two of them had recovered all of their mana.

  Only then did the two of them enter the Jindan Cave, which had long been explored by He Song, and was no longer in much danger.

  In the outside world, He Song also did not leave.

  Although there was no longer too much danger within the cave.

  With Meng Guan and Wei Fan's strength, the two Jindan guards that He Song deliberately left behind to give them some difficulty would not pose too much of a threat to them.

  He Song also checked that there was no one else around.

  But having come, He Song was in no hurry to leave.

  He might as well wait until the two of them had finished exploring this place and put spirit stones into the Big Dipper Divine Thunder Formation to start the formation before leaving.

  With this thought, He Song hid himself in a faraway place, but his divine sense kept an eye on the situation inside the cave.

  As expected by He Song, Meng Guan and Wei Fan entered the cave.

  After entering the cave, Meng Guan and Wei Fan were quickly attracted by the large amount of spiritual rice as well as spiritual medicine in the cave.

  However, the two of them knew their priorities.

  Therefore, they only looked at the spirit rice and spirit medicines for a few more moments, and then quickly began to explore the rest of the cave.

  Very quickly.

  Under He Song's close attention.

  The two of them opened the quiet room, and with that, they encountered the two golden-armored guards that He Song had deliberately left behind.

  The two golden-armored guards had battle power comparable to a Foundation Establishment Great Perfection cultivator.

  But in the end, they were only comparable.

  In the face of two cultivators whose cultivation was actually Foundation Establishment Great Circle, and whose combat strength was considered top-notch among the Foundation Establishment Great Circle, the two golden-armored guards were also considered top-notch.

  The two golden-armored guards quickly fell into a disadvantage.

  However, the Golden Armored Guards being puppets, their bodies were incredibly sturdy.

  Even Meng Guan and Wei Fan were unable to destroy the two golden-armored guards very quickly.

  As such, the commotion of the duo's fight with the gold-armored guards immediately spread out to the surroundings.

  In response, Meng Guan and Wei Fan, who were fighting the gold-armored guards, glanced at each other, each seeing a trace of gravity in their respective eyes.

  These two golden-armored guards still had to be disposed of as soon as possible, otherwise if they continued to drag on, I was afraid that the consequences would be hard to predict.

  After the two sides exchanged glances.

  Under the close attention of He Song's divine sense.

  The figures of Meng Guan and Wei Fan suddenly approached rapidly, and the gold-armored guards that were entangled with the two of them, also gathered together.

  As the distance between the two golden-armored guards gradually drew closer, Meng Guan's figure lurched.

  The long sword in his hand suddenly disappeared.

  Immediately afterward.

  When the two golden-armored guards, one after the other, pounced in Meng Guan's direction.

  The corner of Meng Guan's mouth, however, hooked into a sardonic smile.

  "A mere puppet, how dare you act recklessly!"

  With those words, a blood-colored long knife appeared in Meng Guan's hand.

  The blood-colored blade was as if it was made of blood, and it was incomparably scarlet.

  As soon as it was taken out, He Song, who was watching this place from afar, even detected a hint of a heartbeat.

  When he realized that this blood-colored long knife was extraordinary, He Song's heart also shook, completely removing the original feeling of fear and trembling.

  However, in his heart, He Song had a trace of curiosity about this blood-colored long knife.

  This knife could make a Jindan True Lord's heart inexplicably rise a sense of fear, I'm afraid it's not a mortal object.

  Where did Meng Guan get this item?

  In his heart, He Song was puzzled, but he quickly suppressed this thought in his heart.

  Because within the cave, Meng Guan had already struck.

  Holding the blood-colored long sword in his hand, Meng Guan looked askance, distantly looking towards the two golden-armored guards that were pouncing towards him in the distance.

  Even though the distance between those two golden-armored guards and himself was rapidly closing.

  Meng Guan still didn't make any movements.

  Closer!

  Closer!

  Seeing the golden-armored guards getting closer and closer to Meng Guan, He Song slightly wrinkled his brows.

  Until a certain moment.

  A flash of blood suddenly flashed violently.

  In that instant, the heavens and earth seemed to change color at that moment, as a flash of blood-colored light completely covered the entire cave.

  By the time the blood aura dispersed, the two golden-armored guards that had originally pounced on Meng Guan one after the other also collapsed to the ground only tens of meters away from Meng Guan.

  The appearance of this scene in front of him caused a trace of consternation to appear on the face of He Song, who was still far away at the moment.
