BXBX NOVEL Chapter 283 - Five Elements
Chapter 283 – Five Elements
A cultivator about thirty years old, who was around the same age as Yang Tiangang, yet much more handsome, stood in front of a stone pavilion which was almost turned intile of rubble. His expression was even a little anxious, and behind him, other than a few other cultivators from the same sect, there was also the Yang Tianchen who just came out of the Cold Wind Great Formation.
After a moment, two figures flew over from the distance. When the cultivator saw that there were only two people, he could not conceal the disappointment on his face. However, he still went up and asked, “How is it? Where is my nephew now?”
Senior Brother Wu glanced at Yang Tianchen behind him, not concealing the disgust on his face in the slightest, “It should be because he’s with Junior Brother Zhang Yueming and the rest, and from what the Heavenly Wolf and Opening Spirit School cultivators guarding the entrance of the Cold Wind Great Formation said, he seems to have left with Zhou Beseng. Fuck, if he’s really an array master, and Senior Brother Wang your nephew, then he’s definitely not giving his hand to someone else!”
Spirit Master Wu’s lips moved, he seemed to feel that he could not quell his anger and wanted to curse, but he saw that the expression of the man in front of him was strange. In the end, he suppressed his curse and said in a muffled voice, “I will go back and guard the Cold Wind Great Formation’s exit.”
Wang Yuan’s face was currently extremely ugly to behold. He did not expect his third brother’s son to have such potential, to actually be able to inherit the inheritance of an array master.
As the direct descendant of Wang Qian, when his grandfather became the Chenyu County, the amount of cultivation resources at his disposal greatly increased. In addition to that, due to Wang Yuan’s father’s mediocre cultivation aptitude, he was unwilling to put all his heart into training Wang Yuan, causing Wang Qian to almost put all his effort into nurturing Wang Yuan. In the end, during the recent few years, his cultivation rose all the way to the late stage of the martial arts realm.
When he heard the news of Mengyu County being born again, he immediately rushed over from the Chenyu County. He wanted to compete with the few heirs of Heaven-Shaken Sect for the position of the Heaven-Shaken Sect’s Successor Disciple this time.
Even though his grandfather, Wang Qian, was intending to separate himself from the Heaven-Shaken Sect and establish his own clan, the position of the Heaven-Shaken Sect’s Successor Disciple was not something that could be let go easily. Back then, Spiritual Master Wang was also a Successor Disciple, so he naturally knew that a Successor Disciple could obtain benefits that others could not, not to mention, obtain the position of a Successor Disciple from him.
However, when Wang Yuan rushed to the Sunset Ridge’s cave abode, he realized that both he and Spiritual Master Wang Qian had underestimated the value of this cave abode. Within the first three array formations of the cave, almost all the cultivators, including the ones he brought along, who had not reached the late stage of the martial arts realm were blocked outside the cave abode.
Although Wang Yuan and the rest had already passed through the Cold Wind Great Formation and were beginning to come in contact with the exterior of the cave, with a great harvest, the next array formation was actually able to stop 90% of the cultivators that entered.
Just when everyone was at a loss for what to do, his first uncle, Yang Tianchen, who was previously abandoned in the colossal storm area due to the burden of his burden, actually followed someone else and broke through the Cold Wind Great Formation. He even brought over news that he found it unbelievable: His wife’s third brother’s son was actually an array master!
However, the surprise had yet to arrive, and immediately after, a bucket of cold water was poured over his head and face, clearing the small fire ignited in his heart. His first uncle had only cared about himself as he ran over to meet him, and actually did not bring Yang Junshan, his nephew over as well.
When he first came to the Mengyu County, he didn’t know where this eldest uncle of his got the news, but he shamelessly found out that he wanted to follow after them. He was unwilling in his heart, but was afraid that in the past few years, the Lao Yang family had been oppressed to too much, so he gave him this chance.
But on the way, Wang Yuan realised that he had brought along a burden with him, and after much difficulty, he managed to get rid of him at the Cold Wind Great Formation. Not only did he manage to catch up with him, he even gave his precious disciple array master nephew to someone else!
The more Wang Yuan thought about it, the more furious he became.
Inside another cave that was opened up in the middle of the mountain, when Liu Zhifei heard that Zhang Yueming and Yang Junshan had rushed over, he was immediately overjoyed. He shouted “The heavens are on my side” repeatedly as he ran out of the cave to welcome Yang Junshan and the rest.
As Liu Zhifei brought Yang Junshan and the others into the cave, he introduced the situation inside the cave to them.
This is the situation inside the cave, after passing through three layers of array formations, we have now reached the outer perimeter of the cave, and the treasures of the buildings like the cave, stone platform, and stone pavilion have all been divided among the various cultivators who have barged in. This brother here brought a few seniors and juniors to occupy this cave, and use this aemporary base to temporarily set up the array, while also pondering about how to break into the fourth layer of array formations!
“What?! There’s still a fourth formation?” Zhang Yueming and the rest looked surprised, and said: “Could it be that senior is unable to enter with his cultivation?”
When he had rushed out of the Cold Wind Great Formation earlier, he had sensed something. He originally thought that it was because of the connection between the first three layers of the formation, but now it seemed like it was because of the fourth layer.
Liu Zhifei said with a bitter smile: “This fourth layer of array formation is not some strange array formation, it is just a normal fifth layer array formation, but it is this kind of array formation, the people with us who have cultivated to the fourth stage of martial arts realm are all blocked, only a few cultivators with the cultivation of the perfect fifth stage charged in, among them include our sect’s two Successor Disciples.”
Zhang Yueming looked surprised and asked, “A Successor Disciple from our sect has rushed here, who is it?”
By the side, senior brother Zhou said: “It’s the disciple of Junior Master Chen of the Mengyu County, Senior Brother Song Wei, and Senior Brother Xiong Xiying!”
This person was the direct descendant of the Xiong Family’s Patriarch, Adept Chang Feng. The two of them had once had a grudge in the field Exchange Market, and the other disciple of the Xiong Family, Xiong Xiliang, had also died in his hands. The conflict between the Lao Yang family and the Xiong Family had been formed since the time the Tuqiu Village merged with the Earth Stone Village.
“It’s him!” Zhang Yueming did not say anything, and his expression was relatively calm. Behind him, Senior Brother Gao did not conceal the expression on his face, as the discontent in his tone could be heard by everyone.
Liu Zhifei quickly changed the topic and laughed: “Originally, we were helpless and helpless, but with Little Yang’s help, I think we can go through the Five Elements Formation too!”
A few of the Heaven-Shaken Sect cultivators looked at Yang Junshan with excitement, only to see him smiling bitterly.
Five Elements Formations could be said to be one of the more common and popular array formations. Five Elements Formations had a broad heritage and had a low starting point for array formations. It was almost as if one could rely on the essence of the five elements to set up a simple array formation.
However, these five element array formations also had a very high growth rate. Although their starting point was low, they could improve as the array master’s attainments in array formations increased, improve upon the details of setting up the array, improve the quality of the array setup tools, expand the scale of the array, and increase the strength of the array master’s cultivation.
A single Five Elements formation could be set up with the lowest level formation, could be used as a spirit formation, and could even be upgraded trecious formation. Even the legendary great Dao array was left behind by the inheritance of the Five Elements formation.
Therefore, within array formations, the Five Elements Array could be considered a standard to measure a formation master’s attainments. They were also spirit rank array masters, and because the inheritance of array formations they grasped was different, they could set up a Five Elements Array, and see who could display a more thorough understanding of array formations within the Five Elements Array. Then, without a doubt, the master’s attainments in array formations would be slightly higher.
From entering the underground cave until now, the power of the first three arrays had been increased by one. Even though the third layer of the Cold Wind Great Formation was also a spirit formation, the power and mysteries contained within had already far surpassed the legacy of the formation that Yang Junshan had currently mastered. If Yang Junshan could pass it, it was simply impossible for him to break it.
Now, as the fourth layer of array formation, how could Yang Junshan compare to the array formation that was set up by a array master?
Hearing Yang Junshan’s explanation, everyone looked at each other, and senior brother Zhou could not help but ask: “Are we really going to just watch as the Five Elements array takes action?”
and the others were a little discouraged, but Yang Junshan laughed and said: “We will have to give iry eventually, after all, Senior Brother Liu had previously said that several cultivators at the Great Perfection of the martial arts realm had already charged into the array. It can be seen that although this Five Elements Formation is created by a formation master, it’s still a Spirit Ranking Array.
Hearing that, everyone relaxed, Yang Junshan laughed: “So it’s like that, I’ll go take a look at the Five Elements Great Array first!”
Most of those who were able to pass through the third stage of the Cold Wind Great Formation were cultivators at the late stage of the martial arts realm, and all of them were divided into different small groups. The small group of disciples that Yang Junshan belonged to, which was an Inner Court Disciple of the Heaven-Shaken Sect, plus Yang Junshan and the others, had a total of nine people, and other than Yang Junshan, Zhang Yueming and the other four people who were at the Third Stage, the rest of the four were at the Fourth Stage of their cultivation.
Other than Liu Zhifei and the others, there was another group of inner sect disciples led by Wang Yuan, while the true inheritor of the Heaven-Shaken Sect, Xiong Xiying, and a few other cultivators from the Xiong Family had already charged into the Five Elements Great Array, and it was said that among these cultivators from the Xiong Family, there was one other formation master whose cultivation was only at the early stage of the martial arts realm.
Although the three small powers had their own schemes for each other, in the end, they all belonged to the Heaven-Shaken Sect s in name. At the very least, they could still maintain their coordination on the surface in front of outsiders.
There were seven cultivators from the Sirius Gate side, including five fourth stage cultivators. There were four fourth stage cultivators from the six cultivators from the Opening Spirit School side, and two small forces that were temporarily formed by wandering cultivators from unknown places. There were also about three or four people from each side, and the last group was the first group of people from the Tan Xi Sect who found and barged into the Sunset Cave.
