Chapter 681: Chapter 680: The Couple Meets
Within Yunwu Mountain Valley.
Zhuge Cang’s body shot up, the swirling spiritual energy formed a lifting force, suspending him in the air.
Amidst his laughter, he suddenly commanded, "Kneel!"
His gaze swept over the members of the Military Department in the valley.
As his voice drifted out, everyone in the valley felt an invisible force suddenly pressing down on them, weighing thousands of pounds.
Thud... Thud...
More than a dozen experts at the middle late stage of the Energy Transformation Realm couldn’t withstand this massive pressure and fell prostrate to the ground, unable to straighten their backs.
Qin Yanyang, Xiang Yunfei, alongside Chu Tianshu and others, also felt an immense pressure.
In the end, even Chu Tianshu knelt down.
The elite members of the Military Department holding special weapons were sweating profusely, their faces pale, and though they had not knelt, their legs trembled as they desperately resisted.
Merely the pressure from the valley’s array left these elites unable to fend for themselves, with no ability to resist.
Qin Yanyang was the strongest and in the best condition.
But she also felt that the pressure in the entire space had increased significantly.
It was as if the gravity within the entire Yunwu Mountain Valley had suddenly increased countless times, making a master of her level feel much slower in her movements.
Xiang Yunfei could also withstand this invisible pressure, but his face showed a look of horror.
How could there be such a terrifying divine skill?
Is this man even human?
In his mind, Yang Fei being able to construct a massive Spirit Gathering Array in Yunwu Mountain was already akin to an immortal.
But this old man in front of him could change Yunwu Mountain’s array, turning the entire mountain’s nature’s power elements to his use, which was too awesome.
At this moment, everyone in the valley had their understanding overturned.
It turned out cultivators could wield such terrifying divine skills.
...
One minute ago.
When Zhuge Cang shouted the words "Array, rise!"
Inside the Array Eye Secret Chamber.
The giant jade that was at the heart of the Array Eye suddenly lost its luster, and at the same time, the spiritual energy within the whole chamber ceased to replenish, as if in an instant the entire chamber was completely cut off from the outside world.
"Eh?"
Hu Lizhong immediately exclaimed, turning to Yang Fei and asking, "Brother Yang, what’s going on?"
He thought it was Yang Fei who had tampered with something.
Yang Fei, who was in the process of moving the fifth earth-element rune to the sixth position, also froze when he saw the Array Eye jade stone stop functioning.
Suddenly, as the arranger of the Spirit Gathering Array, Yang Fei immediately sensed that the entire Spirit Gathering Array had vanished.
The formations within the valley had lost their original effectiveness.
Yang Fei’s gaze fell on the Wooden Box, and with a smile curling at the corner of his mouth, he looked at Hu Lizhong and said, "They’ve finally made their move."
Hu Lizhong was startled, then alarmed, asking anxiously, "Mr. Yang, what do you mean by that? Are there enemies in this valley?"
Yang Fei nodded and said, "I don’t know if they’re enemies, but someone has interfered here. At first, I thought the other party had merely tricked you with a special Illusion Array and then sabotaged the Array Eye Foundation Stone, but now it seems they have tampered with the Spirit Gathering Array outside as well."
Hearing this, Hu Lizhong grew furious, "Such audacity to tamper with our Military Department’s vital base! I’ll go see what’s going on."
Yang Fei looked at the Six Changes Wood Box in his hand, where the other four runes previously attached to the sixth Ancient Rune began to stir back to life, returning to their positions.
Seemingly unable to wait for the appearance of the fifth rune, the Six Changes Formation on the Wooden Box restored itself.
This magical scene also astonished Hu Lizhong.
Yang Fei’s interest in the contents of the wooden box grew even more.
However, he didn’t plan on continuing to open the wooden box; he was equally curious about what was happening outside.
Although Yunwu Mountain’s Base had been handed over to Qin Yanyang’s Military Department, deep down, Yang Fei still considered it a Cave Heaven Blessed Land he had painstakingly created, the fruit of his labor.
Now, to find out that someone was secretly sabotaging it, even altering the attributes of the Spirit Gathering Array, was something he couldn’t tolerate.
"Let’s go, let’s go out and take a look." Yang Fei stood up, taking the Six Changes Wood Box with him towards the secret chamber’s door.
Hu Lizhong immediately went over and took the initiative to open the secret chamber’s door for Yang Fei.
No sooner had he stepped out of the secret chamber’s door, a terrible oppressive force swept over them.
Hu Lizhong’s expression changed, feeling somewhat strained, he exclaimed, "What’s going on?"
Yang Fei also felt this inexplicable oppressive force, but his Realm was far higher than Hu Lizhong’s, so this level of pressure was not a big problem for him.
However, Yang Fei immediately frowned, a trace of shock appearing on his face, "Five Elements Thousand Mechanism Formation?"
Hu Lizhong said in surprise, "What?"
Yang Fei’s expression turned a few degrees more solemn.
The Five Elements Thousand Mechanism Formation wasn’t exactly an incredibly awesome Array, but it wasn’t something anyone could successfully create either.
The key was that once the Array was formed, the person controlling the Five Elements Thousand Mechanism Formation would be like a god within it.
The Array’s creator could manipulate all the Power Elements within the Array, even change the power laws of the place, making the entire covered area their own domain world.
Although knowledgeable in the art of Arrays, Yang Fei was currently unable to set up such a Formation.
Yet, he had never imagined that there would be someone in the world capable of doing it.
Yang Fei felt inwardly startled and cautious.
Indeed, there are higher heavens and people beyond people.
Recovering from his shock, Yang Fei immediately sent a mental message to Hu Lizhong, "Old Hu, you remember the locations where I buried the talismans when I set up the Spirit Gathering Array, right?"
Hu Lizhong’s heart tightened. Seeing that Yang Fei was communicating with him through a mental message, he immediately nodded and didn’t speak.
Seeing his nod, Yang Fei continued to transmit mentally, "Later, go and sabotage those talismans. As long as nine talismans are destroyed, I will be able to break this Formation."
Hu Lizhong nodded emphatically, indicating he understood.
After giving instructions, Yang Fei strode out of the building.
Once outside, they saw an old man laughing arrogantly and triumphantly ten meters above the ground.
Opposite him, Qin Yanyang and Xiang Yunfei and others had serious expressions, confronting the old man.
Seeing Qin Yanyang, Yang Fei was momentarily stunned, then immediately overjoyed, "Wife, when did you get here?"
Qin Yanyang had known that Yang Fei was here; otherwise, she would not have rushed into the valley after giving the order to retreat.
Although Qin Yanyang kept telling herself inwardly that she entered the valley to capture Chu Tianshu and Chu Ling, two suspicious enemies, and to take away the Six Changes Wood Box, she couldn’t deceive her own feelings. She was somewhat worried about this scumbag who had betrayed her.
However, when Yang Fei called her ’wife,’ Qin Yanyang didn’t respond at all, even turning cold as frost on the spot.
Seeing that she not only ignored him but also intentionally put on a cold face, Yang Fei felt a wave of disappointment.
Damn it, women really can hold a grudge, it’s been so long, and she’s still angry.
But now wasn’t the time to be concerned about that; he looked at Qin Yanyang and asked, "What happened?"
Qin Yanyang snorted coldly, not bothering with him, and instead shouted loudly, "Retreat!"
Indeed, she had wanted to capture Chu Tianshu and Chu Ling before, but now, seeing the enemy displaying such strong and strange abilities, she knew there was no chance of capturing them. Moreover, with Yang Fei and Hu Lizhong coming out, she decisively ordered a retreat.
In the sky, Zhuge Cang had also seen Yang Fei and Hu Lizhong appear at the first moment.
Hearing Qin Yanyang’s order to retreat, he immediately laughed, "Hahaha, on my territory, do you really think you can leave? Utterly delusional!"
Then his gaze fell on the Six Changes Wood Box in Yang Fei’s hands, and he said loudly, "Boy, you really are a genius in the Rune Tao, hahaha, as long as you join the Zhuge family, I promise you a life of wealth, honor, and overwhelming power!"
