Cultivation begins with planting techniques

Chapter 142 You are not the ancestor!

whoosh-

A faint blue cloud passed through the mountains, with a clear mark, and fell straight to the seemingly ordinary mountain top shrouded in light clouds not far away.

Then he rushed into it and disappeared.

"The elder from the Yuquan family has arrived. Quickly open the passage and let him in!"

The Ma family members who had been trapped in the mountains for a long time, immersed in anger and panic all day long and dared not take a step forward, immediately showed joy on their faces and urged the old man who had achieved perfection in Qi training.

The old man also had a look of surprise on his face. He waved the formation flag and quickly opened a gap in the formation that was blocking the light blue clouds.

Ever since that day when Li Ye ambushed him, the ancestor fled Sanhui Market overnight with a group of clansmen. The ancestor has been in seclusion and has not shown up until now. The situation is entirely maintained by him, a cultivator who has reached the perfection of Qi training.

If the ancestor had not given clear instructions and no pursuers from Pingyang Mountain had appeared so far, perhaps the tribesmen would have been unable to hold on and would have chosen to go out and explore!

And now that another foundation-building cultivator has arrived in the clan, even though the ancestor has not yet come out of seclusion, they all have a backbone.

Even if Li Ye came to kill him, he would not be afraid of him at all!
The light blue cloud escaped into the formation through the gap, and then disappeared in a moment, transforming into a handsome middle-aged man.

"Greetings to the Elder of the Yuquan Family!"

Leading a group of clansmen, the old man who had completed Qi training immediately stepped forward to pay his respects.

"No gift!"

Ma Yuquan waved his hand, glanced at the crowd, and immediately asked,

"It's really too hasty to summon me here. How is the ancestor?"

"Reporting to the Yuquan family elders, since the ancestor was ambushed by Li Ye that day, he gave instructions to everyone and went into seclusion to recuperate. We don't know how he is doing..."

The old man who had reached the perfection of Qi training looked hesitant, "But since the ancestor has already planned to counterattack and occupy these red mountains, it should be no big deal!"

"Is that so..."

Ma Yuquan nodded, his expression slightly relieved. He immediately came to the cave sealed by thick mud and asked loudly:
"We have arrived at Yuquan. I wonder if the ancestor is well?"

After a while, a dull sound slowly came from the cave, and the thick mud that had been sealing the cave also slid away, revealing the inner passage.

"My injuries have mostly recovered. Please come inside and discuss this matter."

Hearing this, Ma Yuquan's expression became serious. He turned his head and looked at the people behind him and gave instructions.

"I have something important to discuss with the ancestor. Please be on high alert. Report any abnormalities immediately!"

Everyone in the Ma family quickly responded.

Ma Yuquan nodded and immediately walked into the cave. After taking a few steps, he frowned slightly when he saw the simple environment.

However, in the open area of the cave, the figure of the ancestor of the Ma family sitting upright was already visible. He did not dare to delay and walked in quickly.

"Ancestor..."

As he stepped into the cave, he was about to salute the old man, but his expression changed in an instant.

The moment he entered this place, a formation restriction was suddenly activated, sealing the cave and evolving into a stream of blazing fire that swept towards him.

The formation set up by the old man who had reached perfection in Qi training in the outside world also suddenly changed, and the formation restrictions in the cave also changed in response.

Giant trees rose up, vines intertwined, and blazing flames ignited, turning the entire mountain into a burning forest. Wood and fire coexisted, and the power of the entire formation instantly reached the upper-middle level of the second stage!
puff!
Light blue clouds rose up and condensed into waves surrounding his body, but how could this hasty defense withstand the full-strength attack that had been planned for a long time?
The flowing flames surged, surrounding it from all directions, crushing the waves with absolute power and evaporating them completely.

Ma Yuquan could only resist for a moment before the spiritual light on his body shattered, and even the robes he was wearing were mostly damaged. He flew out of the cave like a burnt sack and fell among the fleeing Ma family members.

Seriously injured on the spot!

"Old Man Yuquan!" The Ma family screamed and shouted, intending to step forward to support him.

But the streams of fire that kept falling from the sky and the burning vines and huge trees that were interspersed with them did not give them any chance at all.

The formation had only been activated for a short while, but they had already lost several of their clansmen.

They didn't even understand. This was clearly a formation that was set up by the ancestor himself and assigned to an old man who had reached the peak of Qi training. How could it have turned out like this?

"Ancestor! Elder of the Yuquan family! Help me, I don't want to die!"

"What the hell is going on! Is it Li Ye calling?!"

The power of the formation was simply not something a group of Qi-cultivating monks could withstand. They kept fleeing within the formation, but could not get out of the range of the formation.

They were like a group of ants on a hot pan, struggling in vain before death.

"That man is not the ancestor... he is Li Ye!"

It was not until this time that the old man who had completed Qi training reacted and pointed at the person who walked out of the cave and shouted in despair.

"I realize it now, but it's too late!"

Li Ye walked slowly, and after taking a few steps he had restored his original appearance.

He held a battle flag in one hand and a yellow sand gourd in the other.

Under his command, the endless burning vines of the giant tree ruthlessly strangled all members of the Ma family and continued to suppress Ma Yuquan.

The yellow sand gushed out continuously, changing unpredictably, and condensed streams of liquid sand blades penetrated the formation to take lives.

Even though Ma Yuquan had been practicing for many years in the early stage of foundation building and his magic power was much stronger than Li Ye's, he was seriously injured in the first encounter and was no match for Li Ye no matter what!

However, after holding on for a short while, the jade bottle he had used to spew out condensed water was suppressed by the surging yellow sand, and death was imminent.

"All three of my Ma family's foundation-building masters died at your hands. It was my Ma family who underestimated you..."

Ma Yuquan was covered in burns and looked like a ghost. He stared at Li Ye's completely unfamiliar face.

"Li Ye! My Ma family perished because of greed, and you might not be much better off... Let's see how long you can keep the lava palace secret and occupy it!"

"My entire Ma family is waiting for you downstairs!"

"Li Ye! I curse you to die a miserable death!"

The other members of the Ma family who were still alive cursed in despair.

Boom! Swoosh——

A stream of fire came crashing down, breaking the man's last weak defense. A wisp of fine sand suddenly came and pierced through his eyebrows, killing him with one blow!
At the same time, without suppressing the foundation-building cultivator, the formation, which had released most of its power, easily killed the last few members of the Ma family.

"You're so long-winded... If you hadn't come to me first, why would I have gone through so much trouble, even resorting to a show to kill you?"

Li Ye shook his head expressionlessly, collected the spoils, and let the formation burn all the bodies of the Ma family members, leaving no trace.

As for Ma Yuquan's body, it must be taken back to be used as fertilizer for the Sky Realm Tree.

Although doing so is somewhat like the ways of perverted and evil cultivators, the stronger the Sky Realm Tree is, the more stable his territory will be.

Perhaps the efficiency of giving feedback will also increase.

Compared to what we have obtained, the style of doing things is all empty!

Everything was burned to ashes. Li Ye collected his gains and left.
