Chapter 660 – Success
Breaking a restriction was like breaking a wall. Normally, there were only two ways to break a restriction, but for those who knew nothing about the restriction, they would just force their way through the wall until the entire wall was pushed over. For those who were familiar with the restriction, they would be able to easily find the wall’s weakness or directly break through the wall’s foundation.
However, regardless of whether it was forcefully breaking it or skillfully dismantling it, the two had one thing in common. They both had to push the wall that blocked their way to the end!
However, Yang Junshan’s method was completely different from the other two. He could find hidden backdoors one after another on the walls that blocked his path, and then easily push them open, then openly go through the walls. And behind him, layer after layer of restrictions were still well-preserved.
Yuxiao Sect’s group of four had joined hands, and at the start, they had left Yang Junshan far behind, but as they got closer and closer to the center of the cave, the restrictions here became more complicated, and it was hard to remove them. At this time, Yang Junshan’s progress had slowly caught up, and even started to surpass the four of them.
The Profound Constellation Realm Elder, who had some attainments in breaking restrictions, sighed lightly. He stood up and shook his head at Xi Menhu, indicating that he was powerless, but at this moment, Yang Junshan pushed a spot on the barrier wall in front of him and took another step forward. By then, Yang Junshan was already far ahead of him.
Xi Menhu’s face was still solemn, but his hands suddenly pushed forward, and a muffled sound reverberated in the cave, causing all of the array formations and restrictions in the cave to vibrate.
Yang Junshan, who was on the other side, was shocked. As he raised his head, he saw that as Xi Menhu’s divine ability smashed down, the other three Spiritual Masters had also launched their attacks. Very quickly, the surface of the barrier began to crack, knowing that it had been broken by the four of them.
When Yang Junshan looked at everyone in the Yuxiao Sect, his gaze was also fixated on Yang Junshan. Yang Junshan clearly saw the desire to win from their eyes.
could not help but curse silently. Once the other party started to forcefully break through the formation, the huge commotion would soon attract the attention of others, if it was the cultivators from other sects, then it would be alright, but the number of Alien Cultivator s in the entire Buried Sky Ruins had already surpassed the number of human cultivators.
Although the four Yuxiao Secad followed Yang Junshan’s progress closely, they were in a dilemma when facing this layer of restrictions. This layer of restrictions was something even the four of them combined could not break in a short amount of time, while Yang Junshan was facing the Chess s on the other side who were doing the same thing as before and were calculating the loopholes in the restrictions in an orderly manner.
Xi Menhu’s expression became even more unsightly, but right at this time, Yang Junshan raised an eyebrow, a look of joy appeared on his face. In Xi Menhu’s gloomy eyes, he repeated the same old trick, and set up a small and delicate array at a location of the restrictions, but he clearly used a much larger amount of jade coins than before. Afterwards, a light flashed within the restrictions, and a low door opened.
However, Yang Junshan had already made some modifications to the technique, and the source of the modifications was the “Formation Burying Secret Technique”. The Array Embedding Secret Technique itself required different types of arrays to overlap, so it could be used in the array bases, array discs, and the like as much as possible, to avoid the wastage of the array materials, and at the same time, increase the power of the array greatly. However, Yang Junshan obtained more inspiration from the foundation of the technique, and used the technique to modify the array stealing, which allowed Yang Junshan to have astonishing senses towards finding loopholes in various array formations.
When Yang Junshan was trying to break through the second to last layer of restrictions, the Yuxiao Sect cultivator had just forcefully broken through the fourth to last layer of restrictions. But when Yang Junshan began to look for the last layer of restrictions, the Yuxiao Sect cultivators were still powerless before the third to last layer of restrictions.
The few Spiritual Masters of the Yuxiao Sect became increasingly discouraged, and only Xi Menhu remained silent as he bombarded the formation array. On the other hand, the Adept Qing Feng on the other side, who had been observing from the outermost cave entrance, was extremely excited.
When Yang Junshan was activating the last layer of restrictions, under Xi Menhu’s unremitting efforts, the Yuxiao Sect had finally broken through the last two layers as well. However, it was too late, as there were still two more layers of restrictions in front of the Yuxiao Sect, and Yang Junshan had already reached the center of the cave. That strand of wind and strand of lightning, however, launched at Yang Junshan at almost the same time, as countless of green wind blades flew towards him, at the same time flashing and wreaking havoc amidst the wind blades.
The excitement on Adept Qing Feng’s face froze, while the Yuxiao Sect Cultivator on the other side revealed a look of anticipation.
However, at this time, Yang Junshan’s voice could be heard clearly from within the wind and thunder, “Subdue!”
A huge golden jade seal appeared on top of Yang Junshan’s head. Like a waterfall, the magnetic precious light flowed out, instantly eliminating the wind and lightning energy that pervaded the area around them.
Yang Junshan looked at the corpse of the cultivator on the ground, he saw that the wind and lightning had already destroyed one of the storage tools on the corpse earlier, and half of the items inside should originally have been able to survive. Unexpectedly, most of the items were destroyed by the power of the wind and thunder, and other than a few scattered Jade Coinnd crystal coins, there was only a two foot long, double-sided axe that had fallen onto the ground.
Without hesitation, Yang Junshan picked up the double-sided axe. With the spirit weapon in hand, Yang Junshan was overjoyed, just as he was about to refine it, he suddenly heard the Adept Qing Feng at the edge of the cave cry out: “Be careful!”
Yang Junshan was shocked, he raised his head to look, only to see that Xi Menhu had taken out a few talismans that flickered with purple light.
“Seal Breaking Talisman!”
Yang Junshan cried out in alarm, and was about to reclaim the two Essences.
But Xi Menhu, who was in front of them, unhesitatingly activated a Breaking Rune, and the penultimate Inhibition Formation that was in front of them was immediately filled with cracks. The moment the other three Yuxiao Sect Dao Masters attacked, the entire barrier instantly shattered, and at this time, Yang Junshan had just suppressed the strand of wind essence.
Seeing that, without saying a word, Xi Menhu threw out the remaining two Runes to break through the last barrier. Although the last barrier did not completely collapse, it immediately opened up a one meter wide hole in the middle of the array.
“Jade Forging Artifact!”
Without waiting for his fellow sect members to make a move, Xi Menhu’s Precious Techniques and Divine Powers had already flooded into the center of the cave like a violent tsunami.
And at this moment, just as Yang Junshan was about to retract the source of the last lightning glow, he saw that Xi Menhu had already taken the initiative to attack.
Although the power of this divine ability was not as great as the Earth Shaking Mountain Technique, it was clearly an attack that Xi Menhu had planned for a long time. As for Yang Junshan, most of his energy was currently focused on recovering the two types of origin laws, and he did not have the time to think about anything else.
Although his Precious Techniques and Divine Powers was powerful, it was not aimed at Yang Junshan. His goal was merely to force Yang Junshan to retreat, at the very least, he could not let Yang Junshan take back that ray of lightning. Yuxiao Sect had already wasted too much time here, so naturally he was not willing to work hard and return empty-handed.
However, in the end, Xi Menhu still underestimated Yang Junshan’s strength. Even though Yang Junshan currently had no time to use any other protective abilities to defend himself, in order to suppress the two origin laws, the Mountain Monarch Seal had still been floating above his head the entire time, and the magnetic treasure light had instantly weakened Xi Menhu’s divine ability by one third. Then, Yang Junshan once again turned to the Mountain Shrouding Spirit Art, and a series of cracking noises could be heard from the void, and the collapse of the Mountain Shrouding Spirit Art once again weakened the power by one third.
Yang Junshan had not expected that Yang Junshan would choose to take his Precious Techniques and Divine Powers head on for the sake of that lightning origin, and furthermore, he had not expected that would not be harmed in the slightest!
When he rushed to the center of the cave, Yang Junshan had already withdrawn from the first layer of restrictions. But at this time, the restrictions Yang Junshan had left behind had instead become an obstacle for Yuxiao Sect to use against him, let alone the fact that Xi Menhu no longer had the Inhibition Talisman in his hands, even if he did, he wouldn’t be able to use it here. Because, in the instant that Xi Menhu was stunned, he had already flown back and broke through three restrictions in a row.
At the edge of the cave, after meeting with Adept Qing Feng, whose face was mixed with shock and joy, Yang Junshan turned his head and looked at Xi Menhu who was in the middle of the cave with a smile and nodded. Then, the two of them left through the tunnel.
In the end, Yang Junshan and Adept Qing Feng arrived outside of the cave, and the Adept Qing Feng only took over a strand of the Wind Source from Yang Junshan’s hands. As for the middle ranked double-sided axe that Yang Junshan had obtained from the Thunder Source, he did not even question it.
