Chapter 1523: Chapter 1523 Traps
Stone City collapsed in front of everyone and turned into a pile of rubble.
However, Ye Liuyun had many questions in his heart.
"Is the dark power an illusion? Why is there no reaction from the Universal God Token? Is the illusion of Buddhism more powerful than the Universal God Token?"
"Is that monk a human being or is he originally a statue?"
"Are those martial practitioners that turned into dust real, or are they part of the illusion? Could it be that it is what was mentioned by the monk, saying that the bodies of humans will eventually turn into dust? If what we see are all illusions, then what is the truth? Can the Divine Soul exist forever?"
"In the end, when I looked at the Buddha statue and listened to the chanting, why did I lose my mind? Where did the foreign race go? Where was the dark power? How did I get so much power of the Buddha’s halo?"
"Then why did the monk give me the power of the Buddha’s halo, not killing the foreign race himself, and let me do it instead?"
The entire matter had become a complete mystery in Ye Liuyun’s heart.
Looking at the pile of rubble that had collapsed into ruins in front of him, Ye Liuyun used his Golden Phantom Eyes and his Divine Sense to repeatedly scan the place, but he could not find the wooden statue. He could not even find anything useful. All he could find were some crushed stones.
Arya was as puzzled as Ye Liuyun. However, she had obtained an even higher-level incantation and was filled with joy. Thus, she did not care too much.
Only Ye Liuyun seemed to be a little preoccupied and had been thinking about what had happened before.
At this moment, Guo Da reminded Ye Liuyun, "It has been almost two days since you entered the city. If we do not hurry up, Luo Tianming and the others will catch up with us!"
Only then did Ye Liuyun come to his senses. He rode on the feral beast with the others and travelled at full speed.
The further they went, the hotter it became. When they passed through a mountain entrance, Meng Changxing suggested setting up some traps.
"We are not as fast as them. Why don’t we drag them down here? If we work together, we can get rid of some pursuers first!"
Ye Liuyun thought about it and agreed. They were now at most two days away from Luo Tianming. They were indeed a little close.
Originally, Ye Liuyun’s plan was to destroy most of the people brought by Luo Tianming through the natural barrier of Somerset Mountain.
However, Luo Tianming had not gone on an adventure yet. It was indeed troublesome for him to keep chasing them.
So Meng Changxing and the others began to get busy.
Guo Da set up the Formation, Meng Changxing set up the traps, and Luo Yun made all kinds of poisons and knockout drugs to cooperate with their arrangement.
Ye Liuyun cooperated with Meng Changxing to refine metal into various shapes he needed to facilitate his construction of traps.
Arya also helped Meng Changxing dig a hole and set up rolling stones on the mountain wall.
Meng Changxing mobilized all the people and everyone worked hard.
Half a day later, the overall arrangement was completed.
In the beginning, no one could see his overall design. They felt that making spears, arrows, and other tools was not very useful for martial practitioners.
But in the end, looking at the traps one after another, they all felt that they could at least kill some martial practitioners and delay the progress of Luo Tianming and the others.
Ye Liuyun also decided to stay behind. He wore the Sky-walking Boots and made sure that he could catch up with the pursuers. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓
When all kinds of traps were launched, he could also shoot arrows with his clone.
Both of their arrows could almost shoot one arrow at a time. It would be a pity if they did not take the opportunity to ambush Luo Tianming.
So the others left first.
Ye Liuyun could use the Sound Transmission Talisman to locate them after that.
Ye Liuyun first returned to the Xuankong Stone to train. A day later, he stood on the cliff and saw Luo Tianming’s team from afar.
In particular, the two thousand soldiers at the back of the team, riding on Dragophant, stirred up a gust of dust, shaking the ground with rumbling sounds.
Ye Liuyun and his clone used the Xenocide-hidden Skill to hide their figures in the darkness in case they discovered them.
Luo Tianming had a large number of soldiers, and he had never encountered an ambush by Ye Liuyun and the others. Therefore, he was a little careless and entered the Formation that had been set up in the valley.
The traps set up by Meng Changxing were designed according to their number and formation.
Due to the narrow entrance, the Dragophant army behind changed their formation before entering the valley. There were originally eight people in a row and now they changed it into three people in a row. They were ready to pass through in turn.
At the very front of Luo Tianming’s team, there were several martial practitioners of the Sacred Majesty realm leading the team, followed by a group of martial practitioners of the Sacred Terra realm, and then the martial practitioners of the Sacred Majesty realm and Luo Tianming.
It was not until the few Sacred Majesty realm martial practitioners at the very front were about to walk out of the valley that the Dragophant army at the very back entered the entrance of the valley.
Ye Liuyun was also secretly admiring Meng Changxing’s schemes.
The Formation he set up was not activated immediately but depended on the martial practitioner at the front.
Ye Liuyun stared at his footsteps and watched as he activated the Formation.
"Boom!" The Thunder Fire Pill that was buried around the Formation burst out and blew up the martial practitioner, but he was not dead.
This was the signal to start all the other traps.
Then, the rocks on the top of the mountain rolled down.
Luo Tianming glanced at the falling stone with disdain.
"What a cheap trick. You want to use this kind of trap to ambush us?"
"Haha, I guess we have caught up with them, making them nervous and there is nothing they can do!" Many martial practitioners at the Sacred Majesty realm beside him laughed.
Then, a few martial practitioners took action, blasting towards the falling mountain rocks, blasting them into fine powder.
The knockout powder made by Luo Yun also scattered with the powder and drifted into the valley with the wind. Then, various Formations burst out one by one, separating the whole team apart.
The combination of the Formation and the traps was very clever. Some of the Formations were gravitational Formations, but dense spears were protruding from the ground, with the spear tips rushing up.
Some martial practitioners who were caught off guard fell into the trap. The sudden pressure made them all lie on the ground, with holes all over their bodies.
Some Formations, once attacked by martial practitioners, would immediately emit black smoke and kill all the people inside.
All of the Formations were not particularly large, lest more people were trapped, they could break through them in one go. There were many series of Formations that cooperated with the various traps set up by Meng Changxing.
Many martial practitioners were drugged and their minds were not clear. There were also many of them who were shot to death by crossbow arrows.
The sound of people screaming, the roar of Dragophant, the explosion of Thunder Fire Pill, and the sound of falling stones were all in a mess in the valley.
The poisonous smoke at the bottom of the valley also began to spread, becoming thicker and thicker.
The combination of multiple injuries caused Luo Tianming’s team to suffer heavy losses.
Especially for the Dragophant army behind them. Their cultivation realms were relatively low, and their ability to resist danger was slightly weaker. There were even some Dragophants that were frightened and trampled on!
