Yao Yue activated the energy of the formation runes, and Yuan Qi walls condensed from the yuan qi of the Earth Boundary pressed down on Gui Lair from all directions.
It was like a prison, trying to trap the Ghost Lair inside until he died.
Gui Lair roared. He took out a Ghost Axe and slashed in all directions.
Rumble!
Powerful moves bombarded these earthen walls, causing deafening noises.
Gui Lair thought he could break out of the formation, but he found that the walls did not collapse and were still pressing down on him.
"Impossible, even if it's a Yuan Qi formation, I, Gui Lair, can't break it!" He screamed in horror, and continued to swing his Ghost Axe in all directions.
Unfortunately, all of his efforts were in vain!
Yao Yue had set up the Earth Prison Formation, which was comparable to a quasi-emperor grade formation, and had consumed a lot of yuan stones to set it up.
Unless Gui Lair forcibly destroyed the formation, or waited for the power of the yuan stones to be exhausted, he would be able to escape!
However, this Half Monarch level formation was not something that could be broken so easily.
No matter how Gui Lair struggled, he was faced with the possibility of being crushed into meat paste and blood by the Earth Prison Formation!
If it weren't for the fact that he was wearing a quasi-emperor grade armor, Gui Lair would have already become a real malicious spirit!
"Spare, spare me!"
Gui Lair finally couldn't hold on any longer. He already had old injuries, and now he was injured by the formation. His strength had been greatly consumed, and he was about to be crushed to death by the power of the formation!
"Didn't you want to kill me and steal my treasures?
Why are you begging for mercy now! "Yao Yue coldly watched from the sidelines.
Gui Lair was not Gao Yu. Even if Gui Lair was stronger than Gao Yu, as long as Gui Lair was not a member of the Cangxuan Hall, Yao Yue would not show mercy!
Under the influence of the Earth Prison Formation, Gui Lair was killed!
Even in death, he still roared with great unwillingness.
He had killed many experts in his life, but he had never thought that he would die in such a cowardly manner. He was killed before he could even touch the corner of his opponent's clothes!
He would not be satisfied even if he became a ghost!
When Gui You was completely dead, Yao Yue stopped the formation.
Aside from a corpse and a pool of blood on the ground, many of the old stones were still in place. They had not been destroyed by the Ghost Lair. It was just an illusion.
This was the powerful effect produced by Yao Yue combining the Bewildering Array and the Earth Prison Trapping Array!
While Yao Yue was collecting the spoils of war, Solitarius's voice rang out, "Well done. You've actually learned how to link and fuse the arrays. You've finished your apprenticeship!"
"This is all thanks to Master's guidance!" Yao Yue replied.
"You don't have to belittle yourself. With your current achievements, you are much more powerful than many famous Origin Seeking Formations!"
Solitarius praised. He then sighed, "Unfortunately, I won't be able to see the day when you become a Heavenly Master."
Hearing his master's words, Yao Yue felt an inexplicable sadness in his heart. Master, I'll definitely let you live!
In the city lord's manor, the new city lord, Gao Yi, was looking at his youngest son with a pained expression. Beside him was a crying woman.
"God damn it! Who is so ruthless to break my son's legs?!
Old Gao, you must tear the culprit to pieces! "the woman cried.
Needless to say, this woman was Gao Yu's mother, Chen Cui!
When she was young, Chen Cui had been an inner disciple of Cangxuan Hall. However, due to her limited talent, she had been stuck at mid-grade Yuan King.
Unfortunately, she had found a decent man, Gao Yi.
Gao Yi was only in his seventies. Compared to powerful cultivators, he was not very old. Moreover, he was already a low-grade Yuan Emperor, so he had a much longer lifespan than ordinary people.
He was an ordinary elder of Cangxuan Hall's Earthen Peak. He could be considered one of the many followers of Peak Lord Mo Sen.
Due to Mo Yunfei's accident, Mo Sen held a grudge against the He Clan. Therefore, he used his authority to seize the He Clan's weakness and removed the position of city lord from the He Clan, replacing it with Gao Yi.
Gao Yi was a smooth and slick person. He had already found out who had injured his son.
He said to Chen Cui with a cold expression, "You can't take revenge for now!"
"What did you say? Gao Yi, can't you see that your son's legs are crippled?
If we can't find a recovery spirit herb, he will be like this for the rest of his life!
How can you be so heartless to not care about your son?! "Chen Cui looked at Gao Yi with grief and indignation.
"Even Peak Lord can't do anything to that brat. What can a mere city lord like me do?" Gao Yi said unwillingly.
Others might not know Yao Yue's background, but Gao Yi was very clear about it.
If Yao Yue was an ordinary person from the secular world, Gao Yi would have crushed him like an ant.
However, Yao Yue had crippled his Peak Lord's son, Mo Yunfei. Moreover, he had even captured two elders. How could an ordinary person be capable of such a feat?
Moreover, Yao Yue had been accepted as a disciple by that old fart. Gao Yi had heard from his Peak Lord that only the old fart could not be offended in Cangxuan City.
It was because of this that Gao Yi had made such a decision.
Chen Cui was not stupid. Her expression immediately darkened when she heard Gao Yi's words.
How could they afford to offend someone that even the Peak Lord of Wood Xuan Peak did not dare to offend?
At this moment, Gao Yu had just woken up. He said with resentment, "Father, did you break my legs for nothing?
That brat has gone too far!
Who doesn't know that you are the new city lord? How could he break my legs in front of so many people? Where is your face as the city lord?! "
"Hmph, you brainless fool!
You didn't even know who he was, yet you went to find trouble with him!
Face is nothing. Your life is more important! "
Gao Yi scolded with disappointment. He then continued, "If we can't do it openly, we'll do it secretly. You don't have to worry about this matter. I'll get someone to arrange it!
As long as he's alone, I'll make sure that he dies without anyone knowing! "
As Gao Yi spoke, a chilling killing intent flashed across his eyes. He thought to himself, 'A fierce dragon will not cross the river!
In our Cangxuan Hall's territory, even a dragon will have to lie low! '
Yao Yue naturally did not care about the trouble he had caused. He was thinking of a way to mature the Phoenix Grass!
Once the Phoenix Grass matured, it would definitely become a high-grade king medicine. Its medicinal effects would definitely be many times stronger than the blood lotus.
Yao Yue wanted to borrow the Phoenix Grass to save his master's life!
Yao Yue was in another stone house. This stone house had been built by his grandfather.
He set up an Array Formation in the stone house to isolate all Qi before taking out the Phoenix Grass.
Yao Yue had harvested the Phoenix Grass from the Blaze Domain. He had stored it in a jade container. It was shaped like a Phoenix, and the warm energy it emitted was similar to a phoenix's cry. It had a very strong spirituality!
The Phoenix Grass grew after being stained with the blood of a phoenix. It had the special characteristics of the Phoenix Clan, allowing one to undergo nirvanic rebirth. However, the prerequisite was that it had matured to the level of a high-grade king medicine.
It was only a low-grade king medicine at the moment. It might have the effect of nirvanic rebirth on an ordinary person, but it was not enough for a powerful expert like his master.
Therefore, Yao Yue planned to use a special method to accelerate the maturation of the grass and allow it to reach the level of a high-grade king medicine. That way, his master might have a chance to recover from his injuries!
What method did Yao Yue have to accelerate the maturation of the Phoenix Grass?
He had purchased some blood replenishing elixirs because he wanted to use his own blood essence to accelerate the maturation of the Phoenix Grass!
He had already fused with the blood of the Phoenix Clan, but ordinary blood could not achieve the effect of accelerating the maturation of the grass. Only by forcing out the true blood essence from his heart would it be possible to accelerate the maturation of the grass!
Yao Yue placed the old stone that contained the mutated mid-grade primeval stones in a corner. Then, he planted the Phoenix Grass on the surface of the old stone. At the same time, he set up a small elemental gathering formation to gather elemental energy from the surroundings around the old stone. This allowed the Phoenix Grass to have enough elemental energy to absorb.
Other than that, Yao Yue poured the spirit spring water on the Phoenix Grass to irrigate it.
The Phoenix Grass had a strong vitality. After absorbing the elemental energy and the spirit spring water, it immediately took root on the old stone. The grass vines even penetrated the stone to absorb the mutated mid-grade primeval stones.
This old stone contained at least two blocks of mid-grade primeval stones, which was enough for it to absorb for a long time.
"There's only one Phoenix Grass. It's such a pity!
It would be great if I could cultivate a few more! "Yao Yue sighed as he looked at the Phoenix Grass.
With that, he pointed his finger between his eyebrows and directly released a drop of Phoenix blood.
Although Yao Yue had already fused with the blood of the Phoenix Clan, every drop of blood essence between his eyebrows would consume a large amount of his lifespan. It would also weaken the power of his bloodline, which was extremely detrimental to his future growth!
However, Yao Yue did this without any hesitation. Everything was for his master. He hoped that his master would be able to recover!
Only when his master recovered would he not have to fear the Cangxuan Hall and learn more elemental searching techniques!
When he forced out the drop of blood essence, the Phoenix Grass seemed to want to fly away from the old stone. It emitted a flame that resembled a Phoenix and wanted to absorb the drop of blood essence. It showed an extremely eager and intelligent side!
"Don't worry!
It's yours!
Absorb it as much as you want! "Yao Yue muttered as he dripped the drop of blood essence onto the Phoenix Grass.
The Phoenix Grass instantly wrapped around the drop of blood essence and greedily absorbed it.
As it swallowed the drop of blood essence, its shape became slightly larger and the power of fire became more vigorous. Its life force also became stronger!
However, the Phoenix Grass clearly had not reached maturity yet. It needed more blood to help it grow.
After all, Yao Yue's Phoenix blood was not pure enough. Although it was the blood of his heart, it was not enough to mature it with a single drop!
Yao Yue did not hesitate and dripped another drop of blood essence onto the Phoenix Grass.
The second drop only made the Phoenix Grass grow slightly larger, but it was not obvious enough!
Yao Yue forced out another drop of blood essence. One drop, two drops, three drops … a total of ten drops.
Yao Yue's face was extremely pale and he felt dizzy. If the Phoenix Grass was not enough, he was afraid that he would not be able to hold on!
