Chapter 176 Are you two hiding so deeply?

Li Xiu had seen this posture often, and originally thought that Pu Hua was setting up a trap to kill people and seize the treasure.

But listening to Pu Hua's voice transmission, it doesn't seem like it.

With the cooperation of the two formation masters, the formation left an exit for them. Li Xiuchang and Chen Changsheng found the exit and escaped without waiting for Pu Hua to remind them.

Looking back now, the situation is clear.

There were nine people in the group, six of them were outside the formation, and only three were trapped inside.

Outside the formation were Li Xiuchang, Chen Changsheng, Pu Hua, the bald monk, and two mid-stage formation masters.

Inside the formation were three late-stage foundation-building monks.

It was obvious that Pu Hua and the others were causing this incident to target the three people in the formation.

At this time, the three people in the formation were responding to the attack of the flame puppet, while attacking the formation and looking for a way out. They all looked angry and asked: "Pu Hua, what do you mean?"

Pu Hua ignored the three people and apologized to Chen Changsheng and Li Xiuchang: "I hid something from you two before. I had no choice but to blame you."

Chen Changsheng guarded Li Xiuchang behind him cautiously and asked in a deep voice: "What is going on."

Seeing that Chen Changsheng cared so much for Li Xiuchang, Pu Hua showed a look of nostalgia on his face and said: "Once upon a time, I also had a big brother like Daoyou Chen who cared for me, but he was robbed and killed by these three people in the formation. In the past fifty years, I don’t think about revenge all the time..."

The three people in the formation said angrily: "Pu Hua, don't stop spewing blood. The three of us are all from well-established families, how could we do such a thing!"

The bald monk on the side scolded: "Shut up! You three idiots, even if I turn into gray, I will recognize you. Today, I will sacrifice the lives of three of you idiots to honor my elder brother's spirit in heaven!"

The three of them shouted to Chen Changsheng: "Fellow Daoist Chen, don't be deceived by them. When they get rid of the three of us, they will definitely turn against you!"

Pu Hua said quickly: "Fellow Daoist Chen, don't be deceived by the three of them. These three are all heinous cultivators who will not hesitate to die!"

If anyone is in the same situation as Chen Changsheng and Li Xiuchang in the late stage of foundation building, they must carefully distinguish the rhetoric of both sides. There are risks in taking sides.

But neither Chen Changsheng nor Li Xiuchang were in the late stage of foundation building.

So there was no sense of urgency between the two.

Chen Changsheng was even able to find time to teach Li Xiuchang a message: "Remember, the best choice in this situation is not to help both parties, and retreat immediately. If one party doesn't let you go, you can escape if you can. If you really can't escape, Then help the other party.”

Li Xiuchang: "I understand, do we want to escape now?"

Chen Changsheng pondered for a moment and said, "There doesn't seem to be any danger, so let's stay and watch the excitement."

He coughed and said, "You guys, please stop arguing and tell me one by one, Taoist Pu, please start from the beginning."

Seeing Chen Changsheng so calm and calm, everyone present was a little surprised.

Pu Hua nodded, with a look of reminiscence on his face, and talked about the past.

Pu Hua, the bald monk surnamed Ni, and the "eldest brother" they call all come from the same village. They have an irreversible friendship and are sworn brothers. As the eldest brother, the "eldest brother" has always taken good care of the two younger brothers.

Including the two of them embarking on the path of spiritual practice, it was also because the boss obtained the spiritual practice skills by chance and selflessly shared them with his two brothers.

The three of them were loose cultivators and supported each other along the way. The eldest brother and the second child, Pu Hua, both struggled to build the foundation in their seventies.

The youngest Lao San is even more talented, with half a hundred foundations.

After the three people built the foundation, they came to settle in Yueluo Oasis. Because the spiritual energy here is rich, it is a rare place for casual cultivators to practice.

Moreover, the surrounding desert sand sea produces many unique resources, which can be exchanged for spiritual stones from the outside world.

It wasn't until fifty years ago that the three brothers discovered this cave. The three of them explored all the way to the entrance, which is where Li Xiuchang and the others are now.

Although they were blocked by the entrance formation, the three of them also gained a lot and were ready to find ways to break through the formation in the future.

But on the way back, the three of them were attacked by robber cultivators. There were four robber cultivators in total, including three at the early stage of foundation establishment and one at the peak of foundation establishment. This was something that the three brothers who were only at the early stage of foundation establishment at that time could not withstand.

In the end, the boss fought tooth and nail to create an escape opportunity for the other two brothers.

After the two Pu Hua brothers escaped back to Yueluo Oasis, while searching for the murderer, they used the resources found in the cave to increase their strength.

After a long period of probing, the two brothers finally identified their enemy. However, among the original four tribulation cultivators, the peak foundation-building tribulation cultivator failed to attack the golden elixir and died.

Pu Hua and his two men planned this revenge operation and spent a lot of thought to introduce the remaining three robbery cultivators into the situation.

Having said this, Pu Hua looked at the three people in the formation and sneered: "You probably don't remember us brothers anymore. After all, we are just three insignificant people among the many monks you have robbed and killed."

Li Xiuchang on the side interjected: "So you are here for revenge this time, so why did you invite us here? Have you explored the ruins of this cave a long time ago?"

The bald monk surnamed Ni took a step forward and said: "The ruins of the cave are real. You have also seen it. My second brother and I have not explored it. The distribution of spoils promised before still counts. I invite you to come. I really need you." Only with help can we break through the formation, but there is one thing I didn’t explain to you in advance.

"After many years of research, we have discovered that this entrance formation is actually a magic formation. This cave must have been left behind by a strong blood demon formation. If we want to forcefully break the formation with brute force, it is simply not something we can do with our strength during the foundation building period. If you arrive, you need to sacrifice the blood of three foundation-building monks, and then gather three late-stage foundation-building monks to attack the three weak points of the formation to break it."

Obviously, the two Pu Hua brothers planned to blood sacrifice the three tribulation cultivators, and then join forces with Chen Changsheng, who happened to have three late-stage foundation-building cultivators who could break the formation.

"Chen Moulue knows the Formation Dao, but you are not talking nonsense." With Chen Changsheng's Formation Dao attainments, one glance at Chen Changsheng's knowledge of the Formation Dao revealed that what the two Pu Hua brothers said was true.

With the strength in the late stage of foundation building, if you want to forcefully break through this fourth-level residual formation, the only way is blood sacrifice.

Blood sacrifice is a demonic method, but Chen Changsheng is not a pedantic person. The two brothers Pu Hua have discovered this cave for fifty years. In these fifty years, they have not deceived other foundation-building monks in order to crack the formation and open the cave. At this point in the blood sacrifice, he is already considered a person with a conscience and a bottom line.

Pu Hua apologized again: "Fellow Daoist Chen, Fellow Daoist Pang, I did something wrong by concealing it before. If you two are willing to help me kill these three tribulation cultivators, I am willing to give an additional 20% of the harvest in the cave as thanks." .

"If you don't want to and don't force it, you two just need to wait for a while. After my brother has sacrificed his blood to these three people, please ask fellow Daoist Chen to help us break the formation. I am willing to give an extra 10% of the harvest as an apology afterwards."

Although Pu Hua and others used formations to trap the three tribulation cultivators and gained the upper hand, they did not have the upper hand in terms of strength.

Pu Hua and the bald monk were only two in the late stage of foundation building. The other two formation mages in the middle stage of foundation building had to maintain the formation and control the flame puppets summoned by the formation, and could not provide any other assistance.

The flame puppet's combat power is equivalent to that of a late-stage Foundation Builder, but it is a little more resistant to beatings. If it is destroyed, it can be summoned again through the formation.

In other words, the two Pu Hua brothers plus the Flame Puppet were equally matched against the three Tribulation Cultivators.

Even with the advantage of the formation, it is not easy to kill three tribulation cultivators, and it takes a lot of effort.

So I really hope Chen Changsheng can help, and would rather pay an extra 20% of the loot for this.

At this time, the three calamity cultivators in the formation no longer tried to hide their secrets, and shouted as if they were confident: "That's right, your eldest brother was killed by us, what can you do to us?"

"If you have the guts, come in and fight with us!"

"Let's see how long your formation can last!"

The two Pu Hua brothers had fire in their eyes: "You dare to speak harshly even when you are about to die!"

The two of them were still calm and looked at Chen Changsheng: "Fellow Daoist Chen, we have said everything we need to say, would you like to help us?"

Chen Changsheng pondered for a moment and said, "I want 50%."

"What!" the bald monk said angrily, "I didn't expect you to be the one taking advantage of the situation!"

Chen Changsheng said calmly: "What I mean is that I can break this formation without needing to sacrifice these three people. When the time comes, these three people can be left to you to deal with as you please, but I want 50% of the harvest in the cave, and they Everything on the three tribulation cultivators belongs to me."

Pu Hua and the bald monk looked at each other with disbelief in their eyes.

They have studied this formation for decades, and they know that if they want to break it, they must either rely on blood sacrifices, forcibly break it through late-stage Jindan monks, or break it through the formation masters at the peak of the third level.

The two felt that it was unlikely that Chen Changsheng was a late-stage Jindan cultivator. The only possibility was that Chen Changsheng was a third-level peak formation mage!

Level 3 formation mages are not uncommon in the Fairy Dust Sect, but among the casual cultivators, they are a big figure that many people can fawn over.

Pu Hua smiled and said: "If Fellow Daoist Chen can really do it, why not give you 50%! To be honest, I am reluctant to sacrifice the blood of these three beasts. If I can imprison their souls and torture them day and night, this will relieve the hatred in my heart!"

Both Pu Hua and the bald monk's eyes flashed with piercing hatred.

Everyone was waiting for Chen Changsheng to show off his skills, but saw Chen Changsheng pointing at the three robbery cultivators and saying to Li Xiuchang: "Go and capture these three people."

Li Xiuchang: "Me?"

Pu Hua and others also looked astonished: "He?"

They all suspected that they heard wrongly.

Chen Changsheng nodded: "Experience without fighting is incomplete. Go up and stretch your muscles."

Li Xiuchang didn't care. It was easy for him to deal with three people in the late stages of foundation building.

At this moment, noisy footsteps suddenly came from the corridor behind. The expressions of Pu Hua and others changed drastically, and they sensed that a group of people was quickly approaching them.

The three tribulation cultivators trapped in the formation laughed and said, "You have no chance, our people have already arrived!"

"Did you call someone else?" Pu Hua said with an ugly face.

"As I said a long time ago, we come from a well-known and upright family, so of course we have fellow students to support us!"

Chen Changsheng turned around slowly, threw out a few formation flags, and instantly deployed a small formation to block the corridor.

When the two formation mages saw this hand, their pupils could not help but shrink, and they were shocked.

After a while, four or five late-stage foundation-building monks appeared in the corridor, and the leader was an early-stage golden elixir monk!

However, these people were blocked by the formation arranged by Chen Changsheng. No matter how they attacked, they could not move forward.

Li Xiuchang didn't pay attention to what was happening behind him. He came to the entrance formation and said to the two formation masters: "You two, please take down the formation."

The two of them had just been restrained by Chen Changsheng's showing of his hand. At this moment, they looked at each other and saw that Pu Hua and the two of them did not stop him. They stopped and removed the enemy's trapped formation.

Without the formation restriction, the three robbery cultivators were about to attack Chen Changsheng.

They all saw that this person had a very high attainment in formation, and if they wanted to break the situation, they had to control this person.

But Li Xiuchang's figure flashed, and he punched each of the three people in the chest, and the three robbery cultivators immediately vomited blood and collapsed on the ground.

This was because Li Xiuchang held back, otherwise he would have been killed with one punch.

A foundation-building cultivator allowed a third-level physical cultivator to get close to him, which was no different from sending himself to death.

Pu Hua and the others were stunned, and at this time, looking at Li Xiuchang with a simple face, his clear and stupid eyes suddenly changed.

No, you two are hiding so deeply?
