Cultivation begins with planting techniques

"Be careful, you two!"

Li Ye's low shout was still on his lips when a Chaos Mirror appeared behind his head, quickly sweeping away the chaotic dark golden light and enveloping the three of them.

There were only a few ripples below. The sea surface, which had been normal a moment ago, suddenly churned, and the evil spirit rising into the sky was revealed.

All kinds of fish surged out, sweeping the sea water, raising huge waves, and quickly formed a formation to trap Li Ye and the other two inside.

I don’t know what kind of secret method this is.

Before they took action, Li Ye's [sensing] instinct was only slightly activated, but it was far from the level of facing an ambush attack of this scale, and he was unable to make a correct judgment at all.

You must know that Du Yian probably had some plans for him back then, and he had sensed it and taken precautions in advance.

The siren didn't make him realize something was wrong until she took action.

If not for this, this demon formation would not be able to trap him, and there would be no chance for him to even activate it!

Li Ye swept his spiritual sense and found that the style of this formation was different from what he had known so far.

Even in the formation inheritance left by Master Han Tao, who was also a master of formations in the East China Sea, there was no corresponding record.

Either it is some unique secret that is rarely seen in the world, or... this formation is not the formation of human cultivators!

Blah blah blah!

The waves surged, and a large number of low-level sirens used the sea water as a medium to connect each other's demonic energy, almost forming a whole, thus forming a living formation.

During this quick observation, Li Ye discovered that the power of this formation was slightly stronger than most fourth-level formations. The demonic energy was condensed and had a somewhat corrosive effect on the three of them who were in the formation.

At this time, the three of them had already put away their flying boat and were looking around to find any flaws and guard against any attacks.

"Brother Li, what should we do?"

Zhang Wanjun asked immediately, and Cheng Zhe also looked at Li Ye.

They had all witnessed Li Ye's mighty power with their own eyes, so they naturally knew that he had great magical powers. Especially when they were trapped in the enemy's formation, they had to rely more on his attainments in formation to find a way out.

Li Ye did not answer, but asked in return:
"Brother Cheng, I've never seen this formation before. Do you have any clues?"

Although he had a vague idea of what was going on, he was not completely sure.

Especially this formation composed of many sea monsters, although there is a core of the formation, it is very flexible. Without a complete understanding of it, it is even more difficult to grasp the key points to break the formation.

Even if one wants to use the forbidden talisman, the person behind the scenes only needs to make the sea monster change its formation to negate a considerable amount of its effectiveness, and it may not be possible to successfully break the formation and escape in one fell swoop.

"This... this seems to be a demon formation. Cheng has only seen a few similar records, but I have never seen a demon formation of this scale in my southern border, so it is difficult to understand the specific changes in this formation!"

Cheng Zhe smiled bitterly.

He is also from southern Xinjiang, and has never seen such a scene!
I can only distinguish a few things based on the characteristics revealed by this formation, and I can't see much deeper. How can I expect Li Ye to make an accurate judgment!
It seems that this person's array inheritance does not have anything related to the demon race's array formations...

Li Ye listened and thought to himself.

His eyes were silver-purple and flickering, and he was still observing the changes in the demon formation and did not act rashly.

Because they were unfamiliar with the formation, the three of them were unsure of what tricks were waiting for them in this formation and the person who set up the formation to ambush them. If they acted rashly, they might fall into the other party's trap.

It is better to observe first, and wait until more flaws are found, or even until the person in the dark takes the initiative to attack.

As this great formation was formed, huge waves surged, and many strange and ferocious sea monsters evolved, lined up around it, staring at it hungrily.

Zhang Wanjun and Cheng Zhe both looked solemn, but Li Ye just turned his eyes expressionlessly, and no one knew what he was thinking. He suddenly spoke,
"Fellow Daoist, you have commanded a swarm of demons to create this formation to surround us, but you haven't been able to kill us yet. Aren't you prepared to come out and meet me?"

"If this continues, once the war breaks out, you might not get a chance to say anything more!"

The two people beside Li Ye looked at him with a little surprise.

"What a loud tone!"

A sinister and cold snort was heard, and three figures emerged from the waves.

Although they are in human form, some characteristics of monsters still remain on their bodies.

The leader looked middle-aged.

He is short, fat, slightly hunched, and exudes a strong demonic aura, as if he has already stepped half a foot on the threshold of the late Nascent Soul stage.

Just in terms of cultivation, it is enough to suppress anyone present.

However, apart from this, he had a vague wild aura, as if he had extraordinary blood and hidden special qualities.

The remaining two people were both tall and thin, with pointed heads and bulging eyes, as if they were carved from the same mold.

He was only at the early Nascent Soul stage, but there was a faint connection, and something was amiss.

As they appeared, the power of the formation constructed by the monster suddenly rose to a higher level.

The various giant sea beasts that appeared moved closer to Li Ye and the other two, as if they would be struck by thunder if they made the slightest movement.

However, Li Ye only looked at the fat and short transformed monster in the lead, and smiled with a hint of realization.
"It turns out that the target wasn't my island or the teleportation array, but me..."

"I was wondering why they retreated when their numbers increased, and didn't force an attack. Furthermore, Lingbie Island also deployed their formations and encountered no obstruction..."

"So you don't care whether the teleportation array is built or not!"

"Ok?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Wanjun and Cheng Zhe were both stunned.

When had Li Ye actually provoked such a powerful demon clan? They actually came all out to kill him!
Then, wouldn't they have suffered an unexpected disaster here?
The short and fat demon laughed, "Fellow Daoist Li is indeed very intelligent! Since you already know why I'm here, then just hand over the treasure and I'll spare your lives!"

"If not...it has been a long time since I tasted the flesh and blood of a cultivator in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul Realm!"

He licked his lips, looking determined to win.

As he finished speaking, the power of the evolving formation approached Li Ye and the others even more, and the suppressing force became even stronger.

Treasure? What kind of treasure could attract such a demon king so much?

Zhang and Cheng were thinking about this, and their thoughts were surging in their minds, but they were frightened by Li Ye's past achievements and the fact that he didn't look panicked at all at the moment, so they didn't dare to have any delusions.

Just looking at the aura of the three big monsters, they were no match for them, not to mention that they were now trapped in the formation and it was difficult for them to find a way to break the formation.

Even if this disaster was entirely aimed at Li Ye, if they wanted to escape with their lives now, they could only rely on Li Ye to have a chance!

Li Ye glanced at the various strange beasts approaching, then looked at the short and fat middle-aged man with a strong and heavy aura. With a flip of his hand, a dark green tortoise shell with dull gold patterns appeared in his hand.

"Is this the golden-patterned tortoise shell that you want, Daoist friend?" (End of this chapter)
