Gou Zai Yao Wu Simulated Immortal

Time flies, and several months have passed in the blink of an eye.

"Outside Mount Leize, the wind grows stronger day by day."

"In recent days, Sima You and Lady Qingyu have not made any rash moves, while secretly making arrangements and waiting for the right time."

"On this day, a strange change occurred."

"Deep within Mount Leize, a beam of light shot into the sky!"

"Bright and clear for thousands of miles, it turned half the sky silvery white."

"Thunderous energy surged up in layers in the mountains, and the booming sound was incessant."

"It comes quickly, and it goes quickly."

"In just a few breaths, the towering pillar of light was tightly contained by the great formation that came from all directions."

"Master Liu squinted and gazed into the distance."

"After the sunlight was forced back into the formation, he shook his fan and said calmly, 'It's time.'"

He looked at Sima You, his words resolute.

"The loose cultivators are almost ready."

"These past few days, the rumors circulating, both openly and covertly, have been enough to make those stray dogs outside, drawn by the smell of blood, envious. Now that the signs of thunder have appeared, they're even more restless."

"Gongsun You, it's time for you to take action as well."

Sima You lowered his head meekly and said, "Don't worry, Master Liu."

"Everything is ready. We've been waiting for this moment."

Master Liu nodded and said no more.

"Sima You will drive all of you filthy puppets onto the flying boat."

"That flying boat is much larger than the one in Lüliang."

"The hull is covered with intricate patterns that conceal one's presence; once activated, even a Foundation Establishment cultivator's divine sense would find it difficult to detect."

"This is something I borrowed from the Liu family to cover my tracks."

"The flying boat moved silently, skimming along the shadows of the mountains."

"You stand on the boat, letting your body drift along numbly."

He thought to himself, "The Liu family has made such thorough preparations."

"One link leads to another."

"If the Wu family is careless, they might lose everything, even their underwear."

……

"In less than half a day, we were already close to the outskirts of Lei Ze Mountain."

"Sima You dared not get too close, and hid the flying boat behind a shady slope covered with rocks and ancient trees."

"Leading you filthy puppets, we quietly disembarked and crept up along a familiar path."

"Further ahead, the outline of a large formation can be seen in the distance outside the Lei Ze Mountain secret realm."

"A giant bowl, upside down, firmly seals the entrance to the secret realm."

"Its light is not obvious, but its momentum is as heavy as a mountain."

"Occasionally, arcs of lightning would wander outside the formation, crackling and making the surrounding rocks tremble slightly."

"When Sima You saw that scene, a strange look flashed in his eyes."

"What a fine formation! The finer the formation, the greater the chance of breaking through the restrictions and advancing in the cultivation of talismanic arts!"

He ordered all the filthy puppets to lie down in the positions they had previously rehearsed.

"He then made a hand seal to activate a high-grade spirit communication talisman and flicked it lightly."

"The talisman, devoid of fire, dissolved itself and merged into the wind."

"This is to deliver a message to the Liu family."

With everything arranged properly, Sima ordered everyone to remain in hiding.

"The mountain wind swept across the ground, and all the grass and trees bowed down."

"You lie prone behind a cliff, your body in the most suitable position for exerting force and casting spells, your mind racing."

"The bow for Mount Lei Ze is ready."

"Next..."

"Just waiting for the strings to be released!"

……

"On the other side, outside Zilanfang."

"The market, which had been peaceful for many days, was suddenly engulfed in a storm one day."

"Outside the walls of the compound, a beam of light shot through the sky, and several figures arrived simultaneously."

"The leader stood in mid-air, his robes fluttering in the wind; he was none other than a Foundation Establishment True Person from the Qingyu Liu Clan."

"This person appears to be around thirty years old, with thin eyebrows and a jade-like aura behind him that forms the shape of branches and vines."

"Standing alone in the air, his spiritual energy suppressed all the cultivators in the workshop, preventing them from raising their voices."

He looked down into the neighborhood from his high vantage point, his voice booming, "People of the Wu family, get out here!"

"You've occupied this land in Zilanfang for far too long."

"The great formation in the neighborhood trembled with the sound, and a moment later, a powerful aura rose from the center of the formation."

"A person also stepped out of the air from inside the workshop. It was Wu Lingshan, the foundation-building expert of the Wu family who was stationed in Zilan Workshop."

"This person is tall and broad, with a heavy and dense earth-yellow spiritual light around him. Standing behind the formation, his aura is like half a mountain rising from the ground."

"The moment he appeared, he stared directly at the Liu Clan Master, his eyes blazing with fury, 'Liu beast!'"

"You've gone too far! You failed to seize Zilanfang back then, and now, taking advantage of my Wu family's distraction in guarding Leize, you're resorting to such insidious tactics!"

"Master Liu smiled calmly, his expression carrying the composure and disdain befitting a Foundation Establishment Immortal."

"Those whose virtue does not match their position will surely suffer calamity."

"Your Wu family comes from outside the town! You've monopolized Zilan and occupied Leize, making your fortune this way for so many years. It's time for a local to take over."

"No sooner had he finished speaking than a strange change occurred within the market!"

"Several beams of spiritual light shot out simultaneously from the direction of Danxiang Tower."

"The Purple Orchid Fragrance Array, originally used to maintain the outer defenses of the Purple Orchid Pavilion, is now in disarray."

"In the midst of the battle, the flowing incense mist paused for a moment, and then several key points went dark one after another."

Wu Lingshan narrowed his eyes and suddenly turned around.

"Danxianglou?"

"On the high tower of Danxiang, a familiar figure slowly walked out from behind the window; it was Liu Yaoyan."

"She wore a light gauze dress, still alluring as ever, with a cold smile playing on her lips."

Behind him stood several managers and servants from Danxiang Tower.

"Everyone held a formation flag, forcibly disrupting the flow of spiritual energy in the Purple Orchid Fragrance Formation."

"Wu Lingshan roared like thunder, 'My Wu family has treated you well! How dare your Danxianglou collude with outsiders and turn around and bite the hand that feeds you?!'"

Inside the Danxiang Pavilion, a middle-aged, overweight cultivator cupped his hands in a respectful gesture, his tone devoid of any remorse, and said, "Master Wu, I apologize. Compared to the Liu family, you are the outsiders."

"Besides, what Madam Liu gave was far too much."

"Upon hearing this, all the cultivators still remaining in the monastery were in uproar."

They all pulled out their escape tools and fled.

"No one expected that Danxiangdao, the most shrewd and worldly-wise sect in the Zilanfang and Qingyushi area, would betray the Wu family at this critical juncture."

Wu Lingshan laughed in fury, "Good! What a fine outsider! What a generous one!"

"However, you still underestimate the Wu family!"

“Master Xunyi, please step in to quell this calamity.” After Wu Lingshan finished speaking, the gaunt shopkeeper, who had been sitting idly in the pavilion and was usually half-dead, walked out from inside.

"The man held the array plate, and the array patterns around his body sprouted from the ground like bamboo shoots after a spring rain."

"In an instant, it merged into the entire Purple Orchid Fragrance Array."

He glanced up at the Liu Clan Master in mid-air, his brow furrowing slightly with impatience. "What a nuisance."

"I finally came up with something new today, and you guys ruined it."

"Then he looked at the Wu family's Foundation Establishment cultivators, his voice filled with excitement: 'Wu Lingshan, there are quite a few people this time.'"

"You need to pay more!"

Upon hearing this, Wu Lingshan burst into laughter, his voice echoing through the neighborhood, exclaiming, "That's only natural!"

"If we can hold out today, I'll accept this favor, not just extra money!"
