Chapter 1532: Chapter 1532 Ancient Formation
Indeed, in every soldier’s Interspatial Ring, Ye Liuyun found several acceleration and defense runes.
"Thanks for the reminder. Otherwise, I would have thought those soldiers didn’t have anything good on them! These soldiers are quite wealthy!" Ye Liuyun took out the runes, distributed them to everyone without keeping any for himself.
"Of course, the soldiers who can ride Dragophant in the Southern Empire are the empire’s elite troops. They are the core forces!" Meng Changxing happily commented as he held the runes he received.
"The level of these runes is not low!" Arya, who could craft runes, had a good understanding of these items.
After obtaining a bunch of runes, everyone didn’t hesitate to use them. Each person immediately activated an acceleration rune, rushing towards the looming mountain in the distance.
Although the mountain seemed close, at the pace they were chatting and walking, it would still take at least half a day to reach.
However, with the runes in effect, their speed increased significantly, and they arrived at the foot of the mountain in just half an hour.
Although the runes were still effective, everyone didn’t continue forward but stopped to curiously examine the mountain.
The mountain didn’t look particularly special from a distance.
But as they approached, they discovered that both sides of the mountain were sheer cliffs, and it could only be ascended from the side.
It seemed as if a portion of the mountain’s two sides had been deliberately carved away.
On both sides of the mountain, many rock caves were chiseled, with numerous coffins hanging inside.
On the mountain’s sides, tombstones were scattered, all without inscriptions. Some of them emitted a chilling aura.
Although the mountain was tall, it was shrouded in dark clouds. It seemed like sunlight couldn’t reach this place, making it even gloomier than its surroundings.
"Look, does this mountain look like a tombstone?" Guo Da, proficient in Formations, immediately associated the mountain’s shape with a possible Formation.
Instead of rushing up the mountain, Ye Liuyun and the others circled around it.
When they reached the back of the mountain, Guo Da became more convinced that this was a natural Formation.
"Look, on the backside of the mountain, the entire graveyard is elevated in an arched shape. Obviously, this mountain was arranged to be a tombstone, and the arched bump at the back should be the tomb." Guo Da confirmed. freewёbnoνel.com
Everyone released their Divine Sense and felt that Guo Da’s explanation made sense.
"How big is this tomb!" Meng Changxing exclaimed.
Ye Liuyun also commented, "Indeed! This place is designed as a huge tomb according to the terrain. It’s not only large but also well-concealed. The large piece of land behind, serving as the mound for the entire tomb, and the mountain in front, attract attention. Concealing a big grave with a small one, the designer really thought it through!"
"Liuyun, can I borrow your evil dragon for a moment?" Guo Da asked Ye Liuyun.
"Huh?" Ye Liuyun didn’t understand Guo Da’s intention.
"I want to go up to the sky to get an overall view. Since it’s a big tomb, there must be an entrance. I want to see if I can find the direction of that entrance." Guo Da explained.
"No problem!" Ye Liuyun immediately released the evil dragon.
The others also wanted to witness the excitement, so they all boarded the evil dragon and soared into the sky.
Although martial practitioners could fly on their own, Guo Da requested the evil dragon to fly extremely high and it was beyond his own capabilities.
The higher they flew, the smaller the terrain became, facilitating observation of the entire view.
The evil dragon could fly high without a problem. However, as they ascended, they could feel a layer of mist formed by the chilling aura, blocking their vision.
Therefore, Ye Liuyun used the Golden Phantom Eyes to record the terrain and transmitted the information to Guo Da.
Guo Da also asked Ye Liuyun to focus on specific locations, but when he received the information, Guo Da furrowed his brows.
"Can you fly a few more circles around here? I’ll tell you where to look, and you transmit the information to me." Guo Da asked Ye Liuyun.
"No problem!" Ye Liuyun controlled the evil dragon and began to fly around the large tomb.
This time, Guo Da not only observed the situation of the tomb but also the surroundings.
Gradually, he seemed to have discovered something, prompting Ye Liuyun to fly away.
At their current altitude, looking down, they could clearly see the large tomb below.
As for the other small mounds, Ye Liuyun’s Golden Phantom Eyes needed to refocus to see them.
However, Guo Da’s expression became increasingly solemn. It seemed like he had noticed something significant, urging Ye Liuyun to fly elsewhere.
Now, Ye Liuyun had even seen Luo Tianming and the others exploring from the edge of the graveyard.
However, they couldn’t see Ye Liuyun. The atmosphere in the air was filled with a chilling aura, making it impossible for ordinary people to see what was happening in the sky.
Guo Da instructed Ye Liuyun to focus on the southeast, northwest, and the edges of the entire graveyard. freeωebnovēl.c૦m
This time, even Ye Liuyun could see the clues.
"Are the tombs to the east arranged in the shape of a dragon?" Ye Liuyun asked Guo Da.
"Exactly!" Guo Da nodded appreciatively. At this point, he seemed to have relieved a bit of tension.
"These ordinary graves below feel completely irregular from down there. But looking from above, it’s clear they are arranged in the shape of constellations. Currently, the east resembles a dragon, the west should be a tiger, the north is likely the Vespra, and the south is the Vermilion Bird. It’s arranged according to the four feral beasts, signifying the protection of the four beasts. Take a look."
Guo Da’s meaning was clear. This formation was not simple.
"Alright!" Ye Liuyun immediately looked in the other directions, confirming Guo Da’s explanation.
"Damn! Who would go through so much trouble to set up such a huge Formation?" Meng Changxing couldn’t see the situation below, but hearing Guo Da and Ye Liuyun’s conversation, he felt the graveyard’s arrangement was terrifying enough!
"Fly toward the mouth of the white tiger to the west!" Guo Da instructed Ye Liuyun.
While Ye Liuyun controlled the evil dragon to fly over, he asked Guo Da what he meant.
"This Formation is extremely dangerous. It can be said that anyone who enters may find it almost impossible to leave! It can be called an ancient Formation!" Guo Da’s first sentence startled everyone.
Ever since he mentioned that the ordinary graves were arranged according to constellations, Ye Liuyun already knew this Formation was not simple.
The person who set up the Formation went to great lengths to create such a massive Formation. How could they let people easily escape?
Guo Da’s second sentence also shocked everyone: "If it weren’t for the evil dragon and Liuyun’s Golden Phantom Eyes, we would have been lost in this mist-like chilling aura. Ultimately, regardless of heaven or earth, we wouldn’t be able to escape."
