Cultivation begins with planting techniques

Chapter 124: Complete Destruction
"Have you figured out anything?!"

Xie Yushu stared at Tu Zhiyong with a fierce look in his eyes. He unconsciously gripped the folding fan with increasing force, and the whiteness of his joints became more and more obvious.

"This kind of formation, with its own master and control, is so flexible and adaptable that it's far beyond my ability to analyze..."

Tu Zhiyong wiped the sweat from his forehead, looking helpless.
"No matter how much you urge me, I can't do anything to him!"

"Didn't you just vaguely see the formation almost being breached from the inside?"

Xie Yushu questioned, "Why didn't you take action in time to break the formation at such a good opportunity?"

"That brief moment of slight flaw was immediately made up for. I'm not a Foundation Establishment cultivator without divine sense support, so how could I have spotted the problem so quickly?"

Tu Zhiyong's face looked even more aggrieved, and he was almost unable to hold back and turned against Xie Yushu.

He saw it clearly just now.

The formation did suffer a huge impact from within, but even though the power was enough to kill a foundation-building cultivator, it was unable to break the formation and create a passage.

In his opinion, the stability of the formation set up by Li Ye seemed to have exceeded that of ordinary second-level formations, reaching a strength that he could not even imagine!
Having achieved this point, it was obvious that they had already used all their trump cards. Xu Pingyang had not yet been able to escape from this formation. In Tu Zhiyong's mind, the two of them would most likely die in it while building their foundation.

In this situation, he was intercepted here by Xie Yushu and forced to break the formation that he could not break at all. Wouldn't this be the end of him?
Without waiting for Xie Yushu to say anything else, Tu Zhiyong simply gritted his teeth and lowered his voice,

"Brother Xie, please listen to me! Given the current situation, Li Ye has most likely already broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage and is using his spiritual sense to unleash the full power of this formation... The Alliance Leader and Senior Ma are in grave danger. Rather than continue to stay here, it's best for us to escape and return to make preparations!"

As he expected, the look of fear and shock did not appear. The anxiety on Xie Yushu's face faded, and he just asked in a deep voice,
"How sure are you?"

"At least 70%!" Tu Zhiyong said solemnly, "Even if he's wrong, compared to the inevitable death we'll face once Li Ye finishes dealing with those two, and then comes out to take care of us...what does the subsequent accountability from the Alliance Leader mean?"

"go!"

Without saying a word, Xie Yushu summoned the spiritual crane and was about to sit on it and leave.

The other monks from Pingyang Mountain who had always followed him also set up their flying magic weapons.

As the deputy leader of the Qunshan Alliance and Xu Pingyang's trusted subordinate, Xie Yushu believed that everything he had just done was worthy of this status.

Even if Xu Pingyang managed to escape, he would at most be unhappy, but he would not be held responsible for this matter.

Since that was the case, now that Youtuzhi had used this person to clearly state that the situation was not good and was blamed for leading others to flee, he had no more concerns...

If you don't leave now, when will you leave?
With his action, Tu Zhiyong breathed a sigh of relief and quickly set up the flying boat to catch up.

"Thank you, Alliance Leader, you are..."

The other people who were still trapped here immediately asked questions when they saw what they were doing.

But Xie Yushu, as the first one to move, had already soared into the sky and fled out of the mountain without looking back.

The group of people who immediately realized something couldn't help but panic, and some of them reacted extremely quickly and immediately followed their actions.

"It's a little too late to leave now!"

When Li Ye's voice came, everyone's hair stood on end.

Especially the Lan family, young and old, had already had bad guesses in their hearts and their expressions became terrified.

Hua Hua Hua——

Suddenly, the spiritual energy surged.

Without any warning, the formation set up in the inferior spiritual vein at the foot of the mountain began to resonate with the green vine and green wood formation, and the spiritual energy was drained away.

The entire formation expanded rapidly, covering the entire Changcui Mountain in a blink of an eye. It even continued to expand a little further, and continuously extended thick vines to sweep towards the fleeing people.

With the cooperation of the two spiritual veins, the speed was astonishingly fast. Even though Xie Yushu moved fast enough, he could not escape the fate of being caught up and was swept back by the formation.

Pfft!Pfft!Pfft!
The monks who flew into the air to escape were like dumplings falling down one after another. Those who flew low had bruises on their faces and noses, while those who flew high had broken bones and tendons, and their lives were half gone.

Although the power of the formation inevitably dropped to the first level due to such expansion, it was more than enough to deal with this group of people.

shhhhh--

Vines stretched out and bound their hands and feet, suppressing their magic power.

Then they would pierce the chest with vines or wooden thorns, or simply corrode it with wood energy, dissolving the person's flesh, blood, and magic power, destroying his life force.

For a moment, there were screams everywhere.

"Li Ye! I'm innocent!"

"I haven't attacked you yet, please let me go, ah——"

"Li Ye! I was wrong, please let me go! I'm willing to work like a slave for you!" "You dare to kill me! I curse you to die a miserable death!"

Blood, screams, and curses continued to emerge from this group of people.

Li Ye was enveloped in a light green aura, suspended in mid-air, his gaze remaining unchanged from beginning to end.

Since these people are cooperating with Xu Pingyang to attack him, they are his enemies and it would be no pity to kill them!
"My attainments in the art of formations are second only to yours... I still have value... Li Ye! I am willing to offer all my accumulated knowledge in the art of formations... to be your slave from now on... Please don't kill me!"

Tu Zhiyong was pierced through the chest by a vine, and his whole body was hanging in the air, blood gushing out, and he was still begging for mercy from Li Ye.

At this moment of life and death, he no longer had any pride in his heart and just wanted to survive!
But Li Ye just glanced at him, and the formation did not stop working at all.

Swah——

A silver light suddenly appeared, and a talisman with complex seal characters was activated, shaking the formation slightly.

All the vines and trees around Xie Yushu that evolved from the formation were eliminated, but no loopholes could be found.

Xie Yushu, who had already slapped out a wind talisman and was wrapped in the breeze, finally bumped into the barrier of the formation and was pulled back by a vine.

Without giving Xie Yushu a chance to struggle, the vines surged up again and pierced his chest and dantian.

"Li Ye...I really regret it..."

He looked at the man who was shrouded in pale green spiritual light and as high-spirited as a jade-like young man. Regret appeared in his eyes, and the next moment his life was gone.

I don't know whether he regretted not taking the opportunity to keep Li Ye, or regretted rashly becoming Li Ye's enemy and ending up like this...

As life passes away, what this person thinks is no longer meaningful.

During this moment of distraction, Tu Zhiyong, who did not get a response from Li Ye, died.

"Li Lang!"

With a puff, Lan Xinyi rushed out from the side and grabbed the vine that pierced Lan Ming.

This woman was the only one present who was not restrained or harmed by the formation.

Li Ye knew about her actions from beginning to end.

She had never betrayed herself on her own initiative, and she had even always been worried about herself, but she was just restricted in many ways and couldn't do anything.

Li Ye would naturally not do anything to Lan Xinyi.

But he wasn't going to let any of the other members of the Lan family go!
Those frail old men could not hold out for too long under this situation, and by this time they were dead beyond death.

Only Lan Ming was left with half a breath.

"I beg you! Li Lang... don't kill Xiao Ming. I will definitely make him reform..."

Lan Xinyi kept clinging to the extremely stable vines and pleaded with Li Ye.

"Rehabilitation?"

Li Ye shook his head calmly. "If I hadn't been prepared, I'd have been captured and killed by this brat in collaboration with Pingyangshan in the name of justice. How could we be here today... Anyone involved in this must die!"

As he was speaking, the invasion of wood energy intensified and Lan Ming was on the verge of death.

"Sister...sister..."

Lan Ming, with a pale face, tilted his head and looked at Lan Xinyi, whose hair was disheveled and in a state of disarray. Somehow, he seemed to recall the days when the brother and sister were being hunted by the adulterer and had to hide from him.

At that time...my sister also stood in front of him like today.

But if you take the wrong path, there is no going back...

Thinking of the mistakes he had made under the instigation of the old men of the Lan family and various voices from the outside world, Lan Ming held on to his last breath and said intermittently,
"Sister...I'm sorry..."

As he finished speaking, the boy's last bit of life was exhausted, the light in his eyes faded, and his head drooped weakly.

Lan Xinyi groaned and fainted from grief.

At this point, all the enemies were slaughtered...

Li Ye's eyes were calm. He landed on the ground, picked up Lan Xinyi, turned around and slowly walked back to the top of the mountain.

Behind him, the formation followed and pushed forward inch by inch, sweeping away the corpses on the ground.

Wherever he passed, only stains of blood remained to tell of what had just happened.
