Chapter 12: Heading Towards Tiger Mountain (Part 2)

  His words had barely fallen when Ye Fashan suddenly swung his duster and shouted: "Halt!"

  Only the rocks above the head were surging like waves, and from among them, stone pillars rose up like long cones, shining with a metallic luster in the darkness, "hissing" as if ice pellets were pouring down from the sky.

  "Hsss——" The dust was blown away, and the rockets shot out into the sky. Each rocket was condensed and refined by Ye Fashan's pure Yang energy, dense as needles, bursting with anger.

  "Boom boom boom!" The pure Yang fire rocket nailed into the golden stone cone, bursting into flames and exploding into a dazzling array of light, like fireworks blooming in mid-air. In an instant, hundreds of golden stone cones turned to dust and smoke, without harming Diao, Ye, or Tang in the slightest.

  "Good, a pure Yang true skill, exactly the innate nemesis of this Tianyun Jin formation! Could it be that someone from the Zhongnan Five Truths has arrived?!"

  Suddenly a Lüluo exclaimed: "Mr. Bo Er, that little guy has entered the hidden door and is heading straight for the Liwei!"

  "Open the Li Gate and let him in. The two people beside this kid have extremely high cultivation, ordinary array changes are no longer effective. Activate the Kun position upper six changes, and use the Dragon to fight in the wild to kill the intruders!"

  "That controlling and separating halo hesitated and said: 'But Mr. Bo Er, the door leads to Qian position, not Kun position.'"

  Ba Suan Zi snatched the drumstick from Naluo's hand without saying a word and struck it with force.

  "Boom, boom!" With a loud drumbeat, the rocky screen-like walls slid open to reveal a narrow and winding path before Xiao Si. On the stone wall, a faint green light flowed and formed a character "Li".

  Xiao Si pinched his fingers to calculate, thinking: "'Li Xiang Liu Bian, Ming Er You Ming', the old blind man deliberately led me into Li Wei, isn't he afraid that I will walk up to Sheng Wei and turn out of Qian Men?"

  Why bother to calculate the number of times the hexagrams have appeared, still unable to deduce anything unusual. Suddenly, he snorted: "The more the old blind man wants to open the door and welcome me, the less I will give him face! He sees through my intention to escape from Qian position, so I'll kill two birds with one stone and turn back to walk out of Kun position!"

  Nian Ju and Xiǎo Sì suddenly turned around and went back to the hiding place, heading in a direction completely opposite to before.

  The nurse who was hiding behind the golden drum shouted: "Mr. Bo Er, that little guy really fell for it and went straight to Kun position!"

  "Block him!" Bu Suanzi remained calm and gave the order: "Six changes in position, Ming Sheng is on top!"

  "Dong dong dong......" The golden drum sounded, and the formation changed rapidly.

  The ground under Xiaosio's four feet suddenly bulged, lifting the three people rapidly upwards, getting closer and closer to the top of the cave, as if to crush them alive.

  Ye Fashan was about to intervene when Xiaosan shouted: "Don't move, this is Old Blind Man trying to scare us!"

  Sure, here is the translation:

  As expected, no matter how much the ground beneath their feet rose and the top of the cave pressed down, there seemed to be an eternally unreachable distance between them that could never be closed. The three people ignored the various illusions around them and suddenly rushed out of the ascending position into the Gate of No Desire.

  In the unpredictable position, the four people encountered more and more frequent and intense ambushes and killings. Layer upon layer of golden arrays lay in wait, one after another, wildly bombarding the three people. They relied entirely on Ye Fashan's shocking and astonishing cultivation to repeatedly turn danger into safety, narrowly avoiding being buried within the array.

  But the more it was so, the more Xiao Si believed that his judgment was correct, and as long as he opened the Qian Gate, he would be able to escape from the four-sided cave smoothly.

  In about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the three of them turned a corner and saw a glimmer of daylight several dozen feet ahead.

  Xiao Si's heart leaped with joy and he said, "Old blind man, Xiao Si is about to make a big move, see if you can stop me after I've made my drumbeat!"

  He was about to take a step forward when Tang He Shuang suddenly reached out and stopped him, saying coldly: "Not right!"

  Xiao Si was stunned for a moment, and then Ye Fashan let out a loud sneeze and said: "This is not good, whenever I sneeze, disaster will strike. I need to drink some wine to warm myself up first."

  Xiao Si knew that the two men's conversation was filled with an undercurrent of sinister and abnormal energy, but their extraordinary cultivation gave them a nearly instinctual sense of foreboding and warning. Since they both sensed something, there must be ghosts ahead.

  But this is unreasonable - I have clearly deduced it and can escape through Kun position. Is there still something missing?

  Just as he was hesitating, the cave suddenly shook violently, as if the sky had collapsed and the earth had cracked open. The stone walls on all sides lit up with a golden red glow, and from within, a fierce wave of air surged out, with countless symbols rising and falling in a dense forest.

  A flash of inspiration struck Xiao Si's mind, and his face turned pale as he exclaimed: "We're done for! Long Wai has been defeated!"

  Ye Fashan was much calmer than him and asked slowly: "Wuliang Tianzun, how should we respond?"

  "Damn it, the old blind man has tricked me. When the enemy comes, we'll defend; when the flood comes, we'll dam it. Don't panic, everyone, listen to my orders - run!"

  A "run" word exit, four small heads turned around and scattered their feet, desperately rushing back and forth, even faster than a rabbit.

  Ye Fashan and Tang Hechuang were both stunned, and then they heard a loud humming noise. The stone walls on all sides suddenly boiled and turned into rolling bright red magma, with a scorching temperature that almost melted gold and stone.

  Under the four feet of Xiao, the ground suddenly burst into flames, and in an instant, the hard-as-iron surface transformed into a bubbling pool of magma. If one fell in, even turning into a roasted suckling pig would be a luxury.

  Suddenly he tightened his arm and was lifted into the air by Tang He Shang, the three of them turned their heads and flew back in retreat.

  Unexpectedly, the magma spread rapidly like a great tide, and wherever it passed, the mountains melted into waves of heat, as if pursued by a relentless plague.

  Suddenly, a loud roar was heard, and a golden red fire dragon forged from molten lava plunged down from the top of the cave, its sturdy body stretching out of sight, with two fiery claws reaching out to grab Ye Fashan and Tang Hechuang.

  "Boundless Heaven Venerable, I have never tasted dragon meat in this life. Today, I will use you, this wretched creature, to break my fast!"

  Ye Fashan suddenly drew out the immortal sword "Wind and Dust", and under the infusion of pure Yang true power, the sword's edge radiance surged like a torch supporting the sky, and clashed with the giant claws of the magma fire dragon that had fallen from the sky.

  "Clang!" The flames splashed and the sparks flew as Ye Fashan's Wind Dust Immortal Sword chopped down on the dragon's claw, producing a loud, metallic ring. It turned out that this magma fire dragon's bones were like gold and iron, and even an immortal sword found it hard to cut through.

  Almost simultaneously, Tang Hechuang held up a small four and flew sideways, dodging with his body, the engraved knife in his hand shot out violently.

  This time, Xiao Si finally saw the knife light, but it was only a flash in his eyes, as if the flying knife's time in mid-air had been mysteriously taken away. One moment the knife was still on Tang He's fingertips, and the next it had already been inserted into the neck of the Lava Dragon.

  "Boom!" The dragon's head exploded with a loud crash, splashing out clusters of dazzling flames.

  Before Xiao Si could even applaud, the magma dragon's broken neck suddenly glowed bright red and a new head emerged, letting out a mighty roar as it spewed out a wave of flames that swept towards the three like a tsunami.

  Tang Hechu lifted his hand to retrieve the carved knife, but felt it was too small and cumbersome. He shook his arm and threw it out, saying: "Ye Huzi, you come!"

  Ye Fashan smiled and said, "Heavenly Lord Wuliang, do not impose on others what you yourself do not desire." With a gentle press of his left palm on Xiao Si's chest, he pushed him backward.

  Xiao Siyi suddenly rose up in a cloud of mist, and let out a mournful cry: "You two are just a couple of fools! I won't be able to control the wind!" Thinking about falling into the molten steel pool and having his soul extinguished and his bones destroyed, he couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine.

  Suddenly, a stream of spiritual energy was generated in his chest, deeply entering the meridians and the Twenty-eight Constellations Array, blending with the water and milk. His body suddenly became light, like a leaf floating in mid-air.

  Xiao Si suddenly felt a strange sensation and looked down to see that there was an additional dirty and crumpled talisman on his chest.

  "Fourth Brother, this Imperial Wind Talisman can only last for the time it takes to burn an incense stick. Use it sparingly!"

  "Save a bit?" Xiao Si looked at the rolling magma under his feet, and his scalp felt numb: "Thief Lao Dao, do you have any more to spare for me?!"

  Ye Fashan had no time to respond, he and Tang Hechuang were each entrenched on one side, exchanging blows from a distance and clashing with the fiery dragon in a fierce battle that was hard to separate or resolve.

  At this time, Bo Suanzi's two hands grasped the drumsticks, and beat them on the drumhead, using the Kun position golden drum to urge the magma fire dragon to strangle Ye Fashan and Tang He Shang.

  Unfortunately, Ye and Tang's cultivation was exceptionally high, and they fought the magma fire dragon to the point where the sky was dark and the sun and moon lost their light, yet they didn't fall behind in the slightest.

  Bu Suanzi furrowed his brow, and with each strike of the mallet on the drumhead, he could sense the various changes on the battlefield. His heart grew increasingly shocked at the terrifying strength of Ye Fashan and Tang He Shuang.

  Just then, a gloomy voice came from behind: "Mr. Bo Er, would you please order someone to open the passage? I'm going to kill that little brat with the surname Diao!"

  It turned out that he had been stabbed by Chu Lie and had to lie in bed for more than half a month after sneaking into the Jiangzhou branch last time. Also because of this, when Bu Suanzi dispatched troops this time, he did not arrange specific tasks for Yin Shengyang, but only let him sit in Hu Gezhai to respond.

  But just now he heard that his senior brother You Xiran had fallen in battle at the Heavenly Sky Array, and he couldn't help but rush over to avenge him. Seeing Xiao Si being trapped inside the Four-sided Cavern, with both old and new grudges surfacing in his mind, he couldn't bear it anymore and volunteered to take the field.

  Divination child calmly said: "Just a mere little kid, why bother Young Master Yin to personally take action?"

  Yin Sheng Yang Leng snorted, "I know you've taken a liking to this little guy and want to use him to pass on your legacy. But this person plotted against me in the past and harmed Brother You in the future, I won't let him stay!"

  Ba Suanzi's face rose with anger, but he remained calm and said, "This little brat has two powerful masters protecting him. If Yin Gongzi goes alone, it will be more likely to end in disaster than success."

  Yin Sheng Yang Ao said calmly: "No need for Mr. Bo to worry, I can retreat safely on my own!"

  Divination child coldly smiled in his heart and said: "Alright, I'll help Yin Gongzi entangle those two experts, you quickly decide the battle don't be greedy for merit and rashly advance."

  Yin Sheng Yang Bao Quan said: "Thank you so much, Mr. Bo Er!"

  Bu Suanzi said coldly: "No need to thank me - move the formation and open the gate of separation, send Yin Gongzi into the array!"

  The drum sounded, and a tiger skin guard led Yin Shengyang into the formation. He said, "Young Master Yin, later on you just need to remember to return by the original route, and I will be waiting for you outside the gate!"

  Yin energy surged as Yang nodded calmly and stepped across the threshold, the rocky walls in front of him parting to reveal a passageway.

  At the end of that passage, he saw Xīao Sì's back floating in mid-air, nervously observing the battle situation, without noticing that someone had quietly approached from behind.

  A dark and powerful aura surged forth from the corner of his lips, a cold smile spreading across his face as he crept stealthily closer to Xiao Si's back!
