Linggen Civil Engineering only wants to build roads
Chapter 37 Attacking the Mountain
The night passed quickly, and Fang Chen successfully mastered the advanced level of the Fire Serpent Talisman.
Furthermore, he crafted five more in a row, and although all of them failed, his proficiency had increased, and he gained new insights from each failure.
Early the next morning, just as the military supervisor was arranging the attack on the Mengshishan family's formation, the supervising officer began.
Fang Chen's team did not go up the mountain, but was instead assigned to guard the key points at the foot of the mountain to prevent the enemy from escaping.
However, if the other side wanted to escape, they would have escaped long before the encirclement was completed. Those who remain now are probably all those who will fight to the death. Even if they manage to escape, it will be when the magic formation is about to be broken.
So Fang Chen and the others are quite relaxed right now.
He summoned Wu Feng and instructed him not to guard the place, but to go out and search for traces of monsters around Mengshi Mountain.
Fang Chen has just acquired three new talismans. He has enough materials to refine the first-level talismans to perfection, but he doesn't have enough blank talisman paper for the intermediate and advanced levels.
This attack on Mengshi Mountain will likely take quite a while.
Fang Chen couldn't possibly just sit here and waste his time.
Wu Feng accepted the order and left. He also wanted to wander around, as it would be too uncomfortable for him to stay here and hold out.
After Wu Feng left, Fang Chen took out a light blue talisman with mirror-like runes drawn on it. It was a low-level talisman, the Water Mirror Talisman.
This water mirror talisman, as the name suggests, can be used to view distant reflections, much like the camera in my previous life.
However, the greater the distance between them, the higher the level of the water mirror talisman required.
Fang Chen is currently at the foot of the mountain, so even a beginner-level Water Mirror Talisman can be used to observe everything happening at the summit.
The Spirit Eye of Dream Stone Mountain is located at the summit. The advantage of the high-grade protective array is its wide coverage, thus encompassing most of the mountain. According to Fang Chen's observation, Shen Wen is currently standing in front of the array with three other teams of cultivators, seemingly talking to someone inside the array.
"This esteemed disciple of the Tianbi Sect, I beg you to show mercy and spare the lives of our small Yu family. If you are willing to withdraw, I swear that the entire Yu family will never be an enemy of the upper sect."
"Not to be an enemy?" Shen Wen sneered.
"The right thing to do is to open the formation honestly and surrender to my Tianbi Sect. I can guarantee that your entire Yu family will not become slaves."
"Does your esteemed disciple intend to drive the Yu family to its doom?"
"So what?"
Shen Wen shouted loudly, then took out a spiritual artifact shaped like a command flag. With a slight urging, a blue ice dragon crashed fiercely into the Yu family's formation.
The elder of the Yu family instantly activated the magic array.
A colorful dome enveloped the space between the old man from the Yu family and Shen Wen.
The icy dragon and the five-colored jade shield collided with a deafening roar.
The entire formation was on the verge of collapse; this attack almost created a breach in Yoga's protective formation.
"This sect disciple Shen Wen is too strong. This attack is almost as powerful as a top-tier spell," Fang Chen exclaimed.
Top-tier spells can only be used when one has reached the peak of Qi cultivation.
It's unclear what methods Shen Wen used, but the blue flag-shaped magical artifact in his hand is quite extraordinary.
Seeing Shen Wen's strength, the cultivators of the Yin Hu Camp instantly gained momentum and took out their spiritual weapons, unleashing spells at the Yu family's protective formation.
On the other hand, the old man who had spoken was suddenly startled.
He then called upon his clan disciples to guard the formation and repair any gaps in it promptly.
At the same time, with the continuous spiritual power support from the Spirit Eye Land, the clan-protecting formation was able to barely hold on.
"Sigh, we still couldn't break this great formation in one strike," Shen Wen shook his head.
The cultivator beside him immediately flattered, "Your Excellency is truly awe-inspiring! Although you didn't break the formation, you must have damaged its foundation. Presumably, we can break it much faster now."
Shen Wen glanced at the cultivator, considering himself a disciple of the sect.
Although I don't understand formations, I still have a good eye.
The formation wasn't broken immediately; it could be gradually restored using spiritual energy. His attack was merely impressive in its sheer force.
However, it wasn't a good time to say anything that would dampen morale, so he nodded and said...
"Each team of cultivators must take turns contributing their strength. We must not allow this great formation any time to be repaired, otherwise all our efforts will be in vain. Everyone, work hard. Once we break through this formation, in addition to military merits, you can take any of the various spiritual materials and treasures of the Yu family within this Spirit Eye Land at will."
Shen Wen's words greatly inspired the cultivators around him.
After all, that's what everyone's aiming for.
And so, the cultivators from each team took turns attacking the magic array, while Shen Wen, standing to the side, also launched attacks from time to time.
The situation turned into a tug-of-war.
After observing for a while, Fang Chen removed the water mirror from his face.
This attack was all within Fang Chen's expectations, nothing special. The only thing that impressed Fang Chen was Shen Wen's strength. He had originally intended to hunt down the disciples of the Tianyou Sect on the other side.
Judging from this, it seems that disciples of sects should not be underestimated.
Spiritual roots inherently enhance spells. For example, Fang Chen is more adept at using earth-based spells, and their power is also greater.
As disciples of the same sect, they naturally possessed advanced cultivation techniques as well.
In particular, some advanced cultivation techniques have their own unique characteristics, such as those that accelerate recovery, those that enhance the power of spells, and those that cultivate profound spiritual energy.
With spiritual roots, cultivation techniques, and special methods such as spiritual artifacts, talismans, and secret arts, sect disciples are indeed not to be trifled with. No wonder the sect sets such a high military merit for killing Tianyou Sect disciples.
After much deliberation, Fang Chen decided to deal with these small families honestly.
As for those sect disciples, I'll avoid them if I can.
Time passed day by day, and seven days had passed in the blink of an eye.
The Yu family's grand formation was already crumbling, and the once colorful light shield had become murky and difficult to withstand each attack from the Yin Hu Camp cultivators.
"This formation is about to collapse, everyone give it your all!"
Finally, after another powerful attack, the Yu family's protective formation was broken by Shen Wen's powerful spell.
At this moment, Fang Chen, who was at the foot of the mountain, also received the news.
The monks in the messenger team were instructed to be on high alert.
Unfortunately, until the entire Dream Stone Mountain was captured, and the Yu family cultivators were either dead or captured, not a single person appeared at the foot of the mountain.
Wu Feng was furious. "I didn't get any benefits this time."
"Yes, all those treasures are going to end up in the pockets of the cultivators on the mountain for nothing," Xu Qian'er said, heartbroken.
Long Eyebrows laughed and said, "You envy them, but they risked their lives. Although those small families may not have much prestige, they can be quite resourceful if they really fight to the death. I think those three teams of cultivators gained a lot, but there were definitely casualties as well."
Fang Chen watched them complain without getting annoyed.
During this time, they were attacking the formation on the mountain, while I sent Wu Feng out to find out the distribution of some monsters around Dream Stone Mountain.
We can wait until the team is rested before making our move; that would be a small gain.
