Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

Now that Qiao Baiyang had left on his own, he had instead left behind two children.

This indicates that whatever is inside will trigger a strong reaction when touched by a cultivator.

Ordinary people with no spiritual power or mana, on the contrary, will not trigger it.

As for the array, it should have been left behind by Qiao Baiyang's companion; the reason for doing so is probably to prevent outsiders from approaching.

After understanding the ins and outs inside, Xu Zhangqing said with a half-smile: "Fortunately, my array mastery has reached the level of Miao Shou, allowing me to see through everything."

If it were Sun Peng and the others, someone would definitely die."

Since that was the case, he was instead not in a hurry.

He prepared to play the mantis stalking the cicada, with the oriole waiting behind.

There was something in the mountain; Qiao Baiyang would definitely not give up easily.

This time he left, there must be other matters; he would return sooner or later.

Of course, he could not waste time here; he had to make full preparations.

Xu Zhangqing used his Divine Sense to scan back and forth, then said thoughtfully: "Using the mountain as a prison, the vein as a chain, the miasma as a labyrinth—this is a common Lock Mountain Array."

To break it silently would be somewhat difficult.

Array Masters of the initial, middle, and high three grades basically cannot do it.

Fortunately, he was different; not only was his array mastery top-tier, he was also a Heaven-grade Golden Core.

Therefore, after pondering for a while, he already had a countermeasure, and immediately flew around it.

Since the other party used the mountain as a prison, the vein as a chain, and the miasma as a labyrinth.

Then Xu Zhangqing would change the terrain, reverse the vein, transform the turbid miasma, and finally make it his own.

Put simply, it was to silently change the master of the array that originally belonged to the other party.

Thus, as long as Qiao Baiyang and the others returned, once they stepped into the array, they would instead be trapped; unless a Nascent Soul True Monarch-level existence took action, not a single one would escape.

The main peak of Cangyan Peak was like an eagle's beak pecking down, with two winged rock walls like eagle claws gripping the earth, belonging to a naturally formed man-eating layout.

Qi flowed backward within the mountain's belly, causing various auras to be chaotic.

Miasma grew thick below the mountain; even during the day, it could not be dispelled.

After circling around, Xu Zhangqing found the locations of three array eyes.

In a triangular locking formation, embedded in three key nodes of the entire mountain peak.

One was at the eagle's beak on the mountain peak.

One was at the Cold Pool below.

Another was more hidden, concealed within the miasma.

Because he could not enter the mountain, he could only start from the outside.

Therefore, Xu Zhangqing circled around and around, roughly figuring out the positions of the spiritual energy nodes outside.

The one at Yingzui Cliff was in the mountain valley outside.

The one at the Cold Pool was in the mountain depression on the west side.

The one at the miasma was in the depression on the south side.

Xu Zhangqing first came to the mountain valley outside; using his ability to control Earth Spirit Qi, he built a semi-circular arc dam, diverting the stream water into a new channel, thereby forming a reverse-bow water momentum.

As the saying goes, Qi is the mother of water; a reverse bow can dispel killing energy.

Next, he found seven weeping willows, inserted them into the bank beside, then used the Four Seasons Classic to forcibly speed up their maturation.

As spiritual energy continued to gather, dense roots followed the reverse-bow water momentum, rapidly extending toward the direction of the mountain's spiritual vein.

When it was about enough, Xu Zhangqing immediately looked toward the mountain peak; indeed, the man-eating layout of that azure eagle, especially the killing energy formed, had already been neutralized.

Seeing it was effective, he immediately rushed to the mountain depression on the west side.

Upon arriving, he discovered the temperature here was very low, completely different from the surroundings.

After roughly examining the terrain and feng shui, he once again used his earth-control ability to quickly dig open the surrounding soil, discovering that below was all black sand.

Faintly permeating a weak fishy stench; though not pungent, it smelled unpleasant.

Seeing this, Xu Zhangqing controlled the surrounding soil, directly forming a three-tiered terrace above these black sands, each tier higher than the last.

Then he planted sunflower seeds all over it, and next operated the Four Seasons Classic again, forcibly ripening them so they grew quickly.

The attracted Yang Qi flowed down the terraces tier by tier, constantly seeping into the black sand below, causing the cold and yin aura here to gradually dissipate.

Along with it, even that weak fishy stench disappeared.

Originally, there were no plants at all around here, not even a blade of grass.

However, as the temperature and soil changed, they actually began to emerge.

Going against the trend would be useless; this counts as breaking the second node.

Next was the third one; compared to the previous two, the last one was quite troublesome.

The formation of miasma had multiple factors; it could not be born from just one cause.

Therefore, solving this depression on the south side was comparatively complex.

Xu Zhangqing first confirmed twenty-four positions, then dug a deep pit at each.

Next, he activated the Golden Core in his Qi Sea, releasing weak mana, controlling the surrounding soil, and pinching out twenty-four ceramic urns.

In each urn, sulfur seven taels and cinnabar three taels were mixed according to the ratio, to generate metal from fire and earth.

Found the Pure Yang Grass, mugwort.

Yang within Yin, rhododendron.

Rhododendron planted, mugwort ignited.

This changed the Qi inside the Miasma.

However, reaching this step was not the end; in fact, a fourth step was still needed.

That is, using the three positions Outside to form a Three Momentum Array outside the Mountain, resonating with the Array Eye inside the Mountain.

Xu Zhangqing took out three Jade Stones, engraved Spiritual Runes on them, and finally placed them one by one into the Stream Valley, mountain hollow, and depression.

As long as he moved in his heart, the Lock Mountain Array that originally trapped and guarded against Outsiders would reverse and become a Three Momentum Array.

Finished with everything, the time had already arrived at Evening; Xu Zhangqing grinned: "This feeling of using a higher technique to Crush the opponent is simply too refreshing."

From beginning to end, he did not trigger the other party's Spiritual Array.

He merely modified the feng shui, terrain, and Qi.

When Qiao Baiyang returns, he will definitely bring this fellow an unexpected Surprise.

Of course, it might also be a fright.

……

……

In a flash, five days passed in a row.

During this time, Li Muyao and Sun Shangxiang in the Mountain kept trying to nurture to death this Tree that one look told you was not simple.

Try this way, try that way.

It seemed only Sun Shangxiang could do it; as long as she made Contact, she could make this Tree shake continuously, the luster of the Leaves above dimming at a speed visible to the Naked Eye.

Along with the whole Tree, it became increasingly withered.

Suddenly, a lotus Leaf drifted over from Yuan Chu.

On it was not only Qiao Baiyang, but also a female Xiuxian Zhe.

She looked forty or fifty years old; of course, she might just be well-maintained.

Her figure was not tall, but quite plump.

A pair of slightly round apricot eyes, the corners drooping slightly, three wrinkles born at the Eye Corners.

Hair tied in a low bun, two strands of loose hair left at the temples.

Each Ear wore a jade pendant, engraved with fine Spiritual Runes.

Wearing a yellow long dress, with patterns resembling flowing water on it.

Qiao Baiyang's attitude was Extremely ingratiating: "Dao Friend Shi, that Rong Long has most likely already died; why must you wait for him?"

Shi Qingyan raised her brows at the words: "If not for him, I could not have become an Array Master; having both the affection of master and disciple and the reality of husband and wife, how could I forget?"

Qiao Baiyang appeared slightly unconvinced: "But he is dead after all, while I am still alive!"

Shi Qingyan sized her up and down, then revealed a disdainful Expression: "Is your mouth the only thing left that's hard on you?!"
