Just then, the Longbrow True Man’s voice rang in Ye Qiu’s ear. “Little brat, open your eyes wide and watch. This poor Daoist is about to break the formation.”
Ye Qiu withdrew his thoughts, turned his head, and saw the old thing take two steps forward and flick his long sleeves.
He knew the old thing was about to start showing off.
“Pfft!”
Ye Qiu could not help but burst out laughing.
“Little brat, what are you laughing at?” The Longbrow True Man turned back and looked at Ye Qiu with dissatisfaction.
“You seem to have forgotten that right now you are pretending to be a servant, not showing your true face,” Ye Qiu said. “If you were in your real appearance and wearing that Daoist robe, you would actually have some immortal and ethereal aura. But now, it just looks mismatched and ridiculous.”
“Hmph!” The Longbrow True Man gave a cold snort and said, “This poor Daoist is about to break the formation. Today I will let you witness my prowess.”
With that, the Longbrow True Man took out a spirit stone.
This spirit stone was even smaller than a copper coin.
“Go!” With a wave of his hand, the Longbrow True Man sent the spirit stone flying towards the stone wall. With a soft “pop”, the spirit stone seemed to be swallowed by the wall and vanished without a trace.
Ye Qiu stared in astonishment. “Is that how you break formations?”
“Tsk tsk tsk, as expected of a generation’s sect leader from Dragon Tiger Mountain. Truly impressive!”
“Such a method of breaking formations is truly unheard of and unseen before!”
The Longbrow True Man could tell Ye Qiu was mocking him. He gave a disdainful smile and said, “How could a little brat like you possibly understand this poor Daoist’s greatness?”
“Little brat, just wait and see.”
“This poor Daoist will break this formation very soon.”
After saying that, the Longbrow True Man took out more spirit stones.
This time, he pulled out more than a dozen spirit stones, held them in his hand, and then suddenly swung his palm.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh.
One after another, the spirit stones flew out like celestial maidens scattering flowers and struck into the stone wall.
After doing all this, the Longbrow True Man raised his right hand, pressed his index and middle fingers together to form a sword finger, and circulated his true qi.
“Chi!”
The Longbrow True Man extended his sword finger and pointed it at the stone wall.
Immediately, ripples appeared on the surface of the stone wall, just like a pebble dropped into the centre of a lake.
In less than three seconds, specks of light began to manifest on the stone wall.
Ye Qiu saw the spirit stones the Longbrow True Man had thrown earlier. Those spirit stones were now distributed across different light points, shining with crystalline clarity.
“Break!”
The Longbrow True Man let out a deep shout. In an instant, the densely packed light points shattered all at once. Then, a cave entrance appeared before the two of them.
“How about that, little brat? Is this poor Daoist impressive or what?” The Longbrow True Man boasted smugly.
Ye Qiu was somewhat surprised. “You actually broke it.”
The Longbrow True Man leaned close to Ye Qiu and shamelessly said, “Little brat, this poor Daoist put in a lot of effort to break this formation. I even lost quite a few spirit stones in the process. Shouldn’t you give this poor Daoist some compensation?”
Ye Qiu cursed, “Do you have any shame at all? You broke the formation so easily and only used a dozen or so spirit stones. How dare you ask me for compensation?”
The Longbrow True Man said, “I will not bother arguing about the consumed spirit stones.”
“But in order to break the formation, this poor Daoist expended a great deal of true qi. You saw how effortless it looked, but in reality I suffered internal injuries…”
“Damn it, what are you pulling out that broken whip for?”
“Put it away quickly!” The Longbrow True Man suddenly shouted in panic, because he saw Ye Qiu take out the God-Beating Whip.
He knew the power of this whip all too well.
“No compensation, but I do have a whip,” Ye Qiu said with a smile. “Old thing, if your skin is itching, I can help you scratch it.”
“No, no, put that broken whip away quickly,” the Longbrow True Man said with a forced smile. “We are so close, how could I possibly ask you for compensation? This poor Daoist was just joking earlier. Do not take it seriously.”
Shameless bone.
Ye Qiu cursed inwardly and asked, “What is the deal with this formation?”
The Longbrow True Man said, “To be honest, this formation is extremely profound and definitely surpasses a Saint-level grand formation.”
“You still dare to fool me?” Ye Qiu raised the God-Beating Whip.
“Listen to me finish,” the Longbrow True Man said quickly. “Little brat, I am not lying to you. This formation truly surpasses a Saint-level grand formation.”
“I am not bragging. If this formation had not been damaged, even a powerhouse like the Infinite Heavenly Venerable would probably need to spend a lot of effort and time to break it.”
“The reason I could break it is entirely because this formation was already damaged.”
“And it has been damaged more than once.”
“While I was studying this formation earlier, I discovered that the person who set it up was definitely a peerless powerhouse.”
“However, although the array master had extraordinary cultivation, he set it up in great haste, leaving several flaws.”
“At the same time, this formation has suffered two instances of damage.”
“The first damage was extremely severe. The one who caused it should also have been an unrivalled powerhouse.”
“As for the second damage, it was not as serious. The traces are still very fresh. I guess it was Chen Tianming and the others who entered through here using some method.”
“That is precisely why I was able to break the formation.”
“Although it looked effortless to you, in reality it was not so simple.”
“You know that back in the mortal world, this poor Daoist liked to study unorthodox paths. Moreover, I recently obtained a formation manual from Wu Qinghao’s spatial ring. The reason I could break this formation is entirely because this poor Daoist’s attainment in formations has already reached a very high level!”
At the end, the Longbrow True Man did not forget to praise himself.
Ye Qiu frowned slightly. “Old thing, if everything you said is true and this formation has suffered two instances of damage, does that not mean that a long time ago, some powerhouse had already come here?”
“Mm,” the Longbrow True Man nodded. “That is what I think too.”
Ye Qiu said, “If that is the case, is the Dragon Emperor inheritance still inside?”
“Hard to say,” the Longbrow True Man said gravely. “Perhaps someone already obtained the Dragon Emperor inheritance long ago. Or perhaps it is still inside.”
Nonsense.
It is either there or it is not.
Only those two possibilities.
“Never mind. Since we are already here, let us go in and take a look!”
Ye Qiu said, “Even if the Dragon Emperor inheritance is gone, I still need to kill those divine sons. Especially Qi Tian. I absolutely cannot let him live.”
With that, Ye Qiu stepped into the cave.
The Longbrow True Man followed closely behind.
The cave was not deep, only a few thousand metres long. Just as Ye Qiu and the Longbrow True Man were about to exit the cave, they suddenly sensed several powerful killing intents.
Ye Qiu and the Longbrow True Man immediately slowed their steps and advanced cautiously.
Finally, they reached the exit.
A thick, pungent smell of blood assaulted their faces.
Ye Qiu looked up and saw a vast flat area ahead. Right in the centre of the flat ground was a massive blood pool.
At this moment, inside the blood pool, a dragon head larger than a house was soaking!
