Chapter Nineteenth: Chaotic Slaughter of the Five Elements
"Let's go, we'll continue on, it shouldn't be much further." The second eldest brother urged his two younger brothers.
"Ancestor of the Tuan Jia Gate? I'll follow them and take a look." Lu Yu Feng maintained his natural state, following the three people from the Tuan Jia Gate.
"Second Brother, we've been walking for three more days. How much longer do we need to walk? Is this map even accurate?" Sixth Brother said to Second Brother who was leading the way.
"Don't worry, we're almost there," said Second Master to Sixth Master.
"Who is it? Come out!" The leader, known as Second Master, suddenly turned his head and shouted towards the back.
"What? Have I been discovered? Impossible, unless someone is several realms higher than me, otherwise it's impossible to detect me." Lu Yu Feng heard the leader shout towards his direction and thought he had already been discovered, preparing to reveal himself.
"No way!!" Lu Yufeng suddenly realized that the leader's line of sight had shifted to another direction, "He didn't discover me after all!" Lu Yufeng quickly hid again, holding his breath and not revealing a single thread.
"Let's go." After waiting for a while and seeing no one come out, the leader said to the two junior brothers.
"Big brother, was someone just here?" Sixth Brother asked Second Brother.
"I don't know, probably not," said the second eldest brother who was leading them.
"What was that just now?" Sixth Brother asked with a puzzled expression.
"I'm not sure if there's anyone, for safety, just pretending to be one, if there is someone, he'll think we've already discovered him, this time we're here to find treasure, can't help but guard against being followed." The second brother in the lead had a serious face.
"Oh, it's Second Master who thought of everything."
"It turned out to be a trick, fortunately I didn't come out earlier, it seems that we need to be even more careful. The leader of the two brothers is extremely cautious." Upon hearing their conversation, Lu Yu Feng let out a sigh and retracted his aura before following them again.
"We're here, this is it, Wang Tian Feng." A day later, Lu Yu Feng heard a voice coming from up ahead.
"What a tall mountain!" Lu Yufeng raised his head and sighed at the peak in front of him.
What appeared before Lu Yu Feng's eyes was an extremely tall mountain peak, very steep, like a sword, piercing the sky. "Wan Tian Peak, lives up to its name, just like a person looking up at the sky."
Luyu Feng has been in the Demon Forest for so long, but he has never encountered such a high mountain peak.
"Big brother, Mount Wangtian is so high, where is that place?"
"On the north side, about 700 yards away, let's go." The three of them quickened their pace.
"It's here, what a powerful illusion array. It's been nearly a thousand years and the formation is still operating, our predecessors' cultivation was truly very strong." The leader sighed in admiration.
Lu Yifeng followed and saw several extremely tall trees. As for the formation, Lu Yifeng only knew about it but didn't understand it, so he didn't notice anything unusual.
"Let's go, we're entering the formation. Everyone be careful, this doesn't look like an ordinary illusion array." The leader's face was stern.
"This should be the teleportation formation. After entering, we will encounter different formations. Everyone be careful." With that said, he stepped into several giant trees.
Lu Yu Feng suddenly discovered that several people had disappeared near the big tree. "What to do, whether to follow or not, if there really is spiritual liquid, it would be extremely useful for me to break through the Huayuan boundary, but I'm not familiar with the formation at all. Never mind, wealth and honor are sought in danger." Lu Yu Feng made up his mind and also stepped towards where the three people had disappeared.
Lu Yu Feng had just stepped in when he found his vision blurring, and suddenly the scene before him changed completely. The tall trees and mountain peaks vanished, replaced by a sea of yellow sand stretching out as far as the eye could see.
"It's a mess, it's the Five Elements Chaos Killing Formation!" Although Lu Yufeng wasn't very familiar with formations, he could still recognize some of them from books. The scene before him was unmistakably the Five Elements Chaos Killing Formation. This formation was extremely troublesome, as it could create five different illusions - metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. In each illusion, if one couldn't forcefully break through, they would have to endure three attacks from each illusion. After enduring them, the formation would automatically break apart.
Suddenly, a loud rumbling sound shook the air, and the yellow sand scattered in all directions towards Lu Yu Feng, with an extremely majestic momentum. If Lu Yu Feng didn't defend himself, he would definitely be beaten into a sieve.
"The Five Elements are in disarray, and the Illusory Formation is combined with the Killing Formation. With my current strength, I simply can't force my way through it. The only option is to endure three waves of attacks, then wait for the formation's self-destruction." Lu Yufeng gazed at the scattered yellow sand rushing towards him, knowing that these small particles were not to be underestimated. He circulated his internal spiritual energy, covering his entire body with it, and curled up into a ball, reducing the surface area exposed to the incoming sand attacks.
"Hsss...hsss...hsss..." The yellow sand hit Lu Yu Feng's body, making a rustling sound.
Although he had blocked the yellow sand's attack, Lu Yufeng still felt a wave of pain. The spiritual energy membrane that had formed was also becoming increasingly dim.
"Boom..." Lu Yu Feng heard the explosion sound coming from the original place and knew that the second wave of attack had come again.
Lü Yu Feng accelerated the circulation of his spiritual energy once more, and the layer of spiritual energy covering his body grew thicker.
This time the yellow sand came even more fiercely, Lu Yu Feng tightly curled up into a ball, and the spiritual membrane dimmed again. It seemed that the spiritual membrane was about to shatter. Fortunately, the second wave of attacks passed quickly.
"Rumble...." Another rumbling sound came from afar, much louder than the previous two times.
Lu Yu Feng hastily increased his spiritual energy output, but this time the yellow sand came extremely fiercely. As soon as it made contact, the spiritual energy membrane was about to shatter.
"This is terrible, my spiritual membrane has shattered. I can't withstand this yellow sand's attack at all." Lu Yufeng was in a great hurry and increased his spiritual energy output even more.
As Lu Yu Feng's spiritual energy output increased, the yellow sand and spiritual membrane became deadlocked, and Lu Yu Feng was also beaten back by the yellow sand.
Suddenly, Lu Yufeng felt that the scene in front of him had changed again, and everything in front of him was flames.
"The yellow sand should be the Earth Formation, so what's in front of me now should be the Fire Formation. Just now, my spiritual energy was consumed by at least three layers. Fortunately, I have reached the Great Perfection of Qi Refining, and the spiritual energy inside my body is much more abundant. Other Qi Refining cultivators will definitely not be able to pass through."
As Lu Yu Feng pondered, the flames once again assaulted him. Looking at the situation, it seemed as if they were going to burn him alive. Lu Yu Feng hastily released his spiritual energy membrane, which managed to block the flames' attack, but he also felt an intense heat that made him feel like he was being roasted dry. Although the spiritual energy membrane prevented the flames from passing through, the temperature still could penetrate.
Lu Yu Feng felt that this fire array was still much better than the Yellow Sand Array, at least in terms of consumption of spiritual energy. The yellow sand of the Yellow Sand Array directly physically attacked Lu Yu Feng's spiritual membrane with his spiritual energy, while the fire array only scorched it.
Finally, after Lu Yu Feng spent two more layers of spiritual energy, he passed the fire array, which was even easier than the yellow sand array.
Luyu Feng's eyes changed in front of him, and this time the scene didn't have too much strangeness. Luyu Feng appeared on the banks of a large river.
Lu Yufeng, who was thinking about what attack he would encounter this time, suddenly saw the water in the river spinning rapidly and then condensing into a water column that pressed down on him from the air. The front of the water column did not disperse, but instead condensed into a flat circular shape.
Lu Yu Feng was about to dodge when he suddenly found himself unable to move.
"This is going to be tough!" Lu Yufeng let out a loud roar and immediately stared intently at the water pillar, thinking of ways to break through it.
