Chapter 209: Barrier
Just as Dong Shilang controlled these flying creatures and they began their diving charge,
Inside the Stone Ninja outpost, within a spacious stone building located at the central position,
"Liangxiong! When will the barrier master from the main camp come to inspect our sensing barrier? We've reported it two days ago!"
"If we keep having false alarms like this, our sensing personnel will have a hard time working normally!"
In the center of the room, on a cylindrical platform about three meters in diameter, a middle-aged Stone Ninja around thirty years old was seated upright.
At this moment, this middle-aged ninja, because of several flickering light points appearing on the platform, was complaining to his colleague in the same room.
This position has had problems more than once or twice!
I don't know what's wrong with this sensing formation; these past few days it keeps triggering false alarms, causing our sensing personnel to lose face many times.
After checking it themselves with their colleagues, they found no issues, but they were not surprised, since something this precise and advanced is far beyond what these sensing personnel could figure out.
Left with no choice, they could only seek help from the main camp!
It's not that the Stone Ninja have no talent in sensing barriers; it's just that such talent is extremely scarce.
Moreover, the stability of this small sensing barrier is not great, so the few barrier masters available are overwhelmed, making it impossible for them to come to this outpost in a short time.
"Stop complaining about this; having a sensing barrier at all is already a blessing! As for getting a barrier master to come take a look, don't even think about it unless it's three to five days!"
"The colleague named Liangxiong responded with a sentence, and without forgetting to ask: 'Which direction is the problem in? Or is it the usual spot? I also need to report to the watchtower team so they can observe the situation here properly, to prevent a sneak attack by Leaf Village and Cloud Ninja!'"
Although he said that, the colleague named Liangxiong felt no urgency at all; instead, he rose leisurely, with an air of calm composure.
This isn't Liangxiong being negligent; it's just that this sensing barrier is prone to problems, especially these past few days.
At first, they were nervous, but after many false alarms, he inevitably became somewhat negligent.
And let's not even mention the current time!
"Those barrier masters really love to brag, boasting at first about how mighty the barriers they set up are, and the result……"
"As far as I know, it's not just our outpost that's having problems; several other places are in a similar situation~"
"Hmm! It's always the southwest side that keeps having problems……"
Just as he hadn't finished saying that, the few flickering dots that had appeared on the platform corresponding to the southwest direction stopped flickering.
The light spots on it changed from flickering to steadily glowing, and the glowing spots grew larger, the emitted light gradually becoming glaring.
"Something's happened!"
The two people who almost simultaneously noticed the anomaly almost simultaneously thought that something might have happened outside.
This type of standard barrier, although it has many minor flaws, a chakra reaction of this magnitude being a false alarm is practically impossible.
Such a barrier could not detect such a strong reaction from ordinary animals; only ninjas, and a large number of them, could produce this result.
Otherwise, the Stone Ninja wouldn't have equipped this kind of sensing barrier!
But before they could even cry out in surprise, a wave of howling noise pierced through the thick walls into the room, turning the faces of these two deathly pale.
……
"Disperse!"
As the five flying creatures broke into the outpost, Dong Shilang seized the moment, controlled them to make a turn, flipping the people on their backs onto the ground, including himself.
Then he controlled these chakra constructs, lengthening their necks, and rammed them headfirst into the tallest buildings inside the outpost.
It wasn't that Dong Shilang didn't want to use these chakra constructs to help himself against these Stone Ninja; it's just that when building the outpost, the Stone Ninja had made those walls far too thick. Moreover, they were downright crazy, having placed a 'one calamity' strengthening seal in the walls of some buildings.
Without sacrificing them, merely blasting a few of them would not allow us to break through the defenses of many buildings in a short time.
And for Dong Shilang and his crew, if they wanted to raid an outpost with no fewer than sixty people, any delay could cause them to be surrounded by the Stone Ninja.
At this point, Dong Shilang also had his own business to attend to.
Still in midair, just as his feet left the backs of those flying creatures, Dong Shilang's hands had already begun forming seals.
When his feet touched the ground, five clusters of blue chakra on the fingers of his right hand emitted light like blue flames, which he pressed onto the ground.
"Barrier·Uchiha Mist"
With his soft shout, a square transparent barrier began to rise at extreme speed around the perimeter of the Stone Ninja camp, enclosing the camp within the barrier.
In just a short one or two seconds, the barrier's transparent surface began to turn murky; from afar it looked like a mountain mist enveloping the entire camp.
This made the inside of the camp and the outside world seem like two separate worlds; outside sound and light could not penetrate in, and inside light and sound could not escape out.
Dong Shilang employed this highly chakra-consuming barrier technique precisely for this effect; otherwise, during their assault on this outpost, any wandering Stone Ninja nearby would immediately notice the commotion.
What they faced was not just the Stone Ninja inside the outpost!
If things went poorly and they got entangled by the Stone Ninja inside the outpost, their entire group would be in danger.
Now, with this barrier in place and it still being night, it can help them better conceal their operation, allowing them to use any means without restraint.
Just as the barrier began to rise, the flying creatures under his control happened to stretch their necks, concentrating all the momentum from their diving and flight onto their sharp, long beaks.
When Dong Shilang created these chakra constructs, he chose a form similar to a crane; now it was perfect, allowing them to use their long, sharp beaks to breach the outer walls of the buildings.
