Chapter 1528: The Eternal Grand Formation

Sure enough, Ye Liuyun's clone found several acceleration and defense talismans in each soldier's storage ring.

"Thanks to your reminder,"

"Otherwise I would have thought those soldiers had nothing good on them! These soldiers are quite wealthy!"

Ye Liuyun took out all those talismans, distributed them to everyone, and didn't keep any for himself.

"Of course, the soldiers of the Nan Xiang Empire who can ride war elephants are all the empire's elite troops."

"Absolutely the core unit!"

Meng Zhangxing laughed happily holding the talismans he received.

"These talismans are not low-grade!"

A Ya knows how to make talismans, so she understands this better.

After obtaining so many talismans for free, nobody held back on using them.

Immediately, each person used an acceleration talisman and rushed toward the big mountain ahead.

That big mountain looked close, but at their walking-and-chatting pace, they still needed at least half a day to get there.

But with these talismans, their speed increased greatly, and they reached the foot of the mountain in half an hour.

Although the talismans were still effective, nobody continued forward; instead they all stopped to curiously examine the big mountain.

From a distance, the mountain didn't look particularly special.

But when they got closer, they discovered that the mountain's front and back were sheer cliffs, and only the sides could be climbed.

It looked as if someone had artificially cut away a portion from each of the mountain's two faces.

On both cliff faces, many caves had been dug, inside which hung many coffins.

On both sides of the mountain, tombstones were scattered everywhere, yet they were all blank.

Around some of them, a gloomy yin energy rose.

Although the mountain is tall, it is shrouded in dark clouds; sunlight seems unable to reach here, making it even more gloomy than the surroundings.

"Look, doesn't this mountain resemble a tombstone?"

Guo Da, versed in formations, upon seeing the mountain's shape, immediately wondered if it had something to do with a formation.

Ye Liuyun and the others didn't rush up the mountain; instead they circled around it.

When they reached the mountain's rear, Guo Da became even more certain that this place was a natural formation.

"Look, the entire graveyard behind the mountain forms an arched rise."

"Obviously this mountain was arranged as a tombstone, and the arched mound behind it must be the burial mound."

Guo Da confirmed.

Everyone released their divine sense and also felt Guo Da made sense.

"How huge is this tomb!"

Meng Zhangxing sighed.

Ye Liuyun also said: "Not bad! This is indeed a large tomb designed according to the terrain."

"It's not only large, but also well concealed."

"The expansive land at the back serves as the tomb's mound, while the large mountain in front serves to draw people's attention."

"Using small mounds to conceal a large mound — this designer really came up with something!"

"Brother Ye, could I borrow your evil dragon for a bit?"

Guo Da asked Ye Liuyun.

"Huh?"

Ye Liuyun didn't understand what Guo Da meant.

"I want to go up into the air to get an overall view."

"Since it's a large tomb, there must be an entrance and exit."

"I want to see if I can locate the tomb's opening."

Guo Da explained.

"No problem!"

Ye Liuyun immediately released the evil dragon.

Everyone also wanted to go see the excitement, so they all mounted the evil dragon and flew up high.

Martial cultivators can fly on their own, but Guo Da demanded the evil dragon fly extremely high, beyond his capability.

The higher they flew, the more the terrain shrank, making it easier to observe the whole scene.

Flying the evil dragon very high was no problem.

But here the yin energy is thick; the higher they flew, the more they felt the yin energy forming a thin mist that obscured vision.

So Ye Liuyun used his Golden Pupil to record the terrain he saw, then transmitted the information to Guo Da.

Guo Da also asked Ye Liuyun to focus on certain spots, but after receiving the information, Guo Da furrowed his brow.

"Could we fly a few more circles around here?"

"I'll tell you where to look, and you send the information back to me."

Guo Da asked Ye Liuyun.

"No problem!"

Ye Liuyun said, controlling the evil dragon as he began to circle the great tomb.

This time Guo Da observed not only the tomb's condition but also the surroundings.

Gradually, he seemed to discover something, and instead had Ye Liuyun fly outward.

At their current altitude, looking down they could clearly see the great tomb below.

As for the other small grave mounds, they could only be seen after Ye Liuyun's Golden Pupil refocused.

&

Moreover, Guo Da's expression became increasingly solemn.

He even seemed somewhat obsessed, constantly urging Ye Liuyun to look this way and that!

Ye Liuyun, on the evil dragon's back, had even seen Luo Tianming and others, who were exploring from the edge of the graveyard inward.

But they couldn't see Ye Liuyun.

Here in the air, yin qi permeated; ordinary people's sight could not see what was happening high up at all.

Guo Da then had Ye Liuyun focus on observing the four peripheral areas of the entire graveyard in the southeast, northwest, etc.

This time, even Ye Liuyun could see the clues.

"Are the graves on the east side laid out in the shape of a dragon?"

Ye Liuyun asked Guo Da.

"Not bad!"

Guo Da nodded in praise, at this point seeming to finally let out a slight sigh of relief.

"The ordinary graves here, felt from below, are completely without pattern."

But from high above we could see that they were arranged according to the shape of the star constellations spread across the sky.

Now the east side is a dragon, the west side should be in the shape of a tiger, the north side should be Xuanwu, and the south side should be Zhuque.

It is laid out according to the Four Fierce Beasts, meaning the four beasts guard it.

Take another look.

Guo Da's meaning could not be clearer; this formation is not simple.

"Good!"

Ye Liuyun immediately looked in the other several directions, and finally all confirmed Guo Da's statement.

"Holy shit! Who went to such trouble to set up such a huge formation?"

Meng Zhangxing couldn't see the situation below, but hearing Guo Da and Ye Liuyun talk, he felt the graveyard's layout was indeed terrifying!

"Fly toward the mouth of the White Tiger on the west side!"

Guo Da told Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun, while controlling the evil dragon to fly over, also asked him what he meant.

"This formation is extremely dangerous.

One could say that anyone who enters can hardly ever get out again! It can be called an Ancient Great Array!

Guo Da's first words startled everyone.

Even before he said that the ordinary graves here were laid out according to the star constellations, Ye Liuyun already knew this formation was not simple.

The person who laid out this formation went to great trouble to create such a great formation—how could they let people leave easily!

Guo Da's second words also shocked everyone: "If it weren't for the evil dragon and Brother Ye's Golden Pupil, we would also lose our direction in this misty yin qi, and ultimately, whether above ground or below, we could not escape this Ancient Great Array."
