“I’ve said it before, but if anyone doesn’t want to participate in this, you may leave now,”

Master Lie Feng, the cultivator with the highest cultivation level among the group, spoke to the other three Late Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators in front of him.

However, he did not truly believe that anyone would choose to leave.

These three Late Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators were all from Foundation Establishment Clans in the Eight-vein Immortal City.

Some of these three Foundation Establishment Clans were inherited from their ancestors, while others were newly established by themselves.

Although their fighting strength might not be as strong as that of disciples from Upper Sects, they were much stronger than ordinary loose cultivators.

They could certainly hold off a Late Foundation Establishment Stage Upper Sect disciple for some time.

Moreover, with a Foundation Establishment Great Perfection cultivator like him leading the attack, once they encircled the Late Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator mentioned by Xu Jie, there was no way to escape.

It was precisely because these three people’s strength was passable that, after receiving Xu Jie’s message, he thought of them and quickly invited them for discussions.

Now, the plan had been mostly discussed, and the allocation of benefits was clear.

Next, it was time to set out and find that Late Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator with a fortune on his back.

Seeing that the other three Foundation Establishment cultivators at his side had no intention of leaving, Master Lie Feng nodded satisfactorily.

Then, he stood up and turned into a tunneling light, heading towards the distance.

Following behind him,

The other three Foundation Establishment cultivators quickly turned into tunneling lights and left the Eight-vein Immortal City as well.

Eight-vein Immortal City.

As five tunneling lights left the city one after another,

Xu Jie, who had been observing all this, expressed his joy. With a clap of his hands, he laughed and said “Good!”

Not long ago, He Song left,

Turning into a tunneling light and shooting towards the sky, heading into the distance.

Now, led by Master Lie Feng, a total of four cultivators at least at the Late Foundation Establishment Stage followed He Song’s direction.

It seemed that the upcoming events were almost guaranteed to succeed.

With a glint in his eyes, Xu Jie could not help smiling, as if he had already seen the victorious return of Master Lie Feng and his team.

Xu Jie felt certain about this in the Eight-vein Immortal City.

However, He Song, who was a hundred miles away from the Eight-vein Immortal City and hidden in the valley, also felt confident this time.

After arriving in the valley where he had arranged a Golden Elixir Array, He Song had released all four Golden Armored Guards to ensure his safety.

In addition to this, He Song also set up a wide-ranging Sea-Stabilizing and Spirit-Orienting Array outside the Golden Elixir Array.

The existence of this Sea-Stabilizing and Spirit-Orienting Array was not to help He Song withstand attacks from the outside world.

It was a means to attract his enemies.

As a Foundation Establishment cultivator who had struggled through hardships to reach his current level, He Song had a good understanding of cultivators’ psychology.

If a cultivator stayed still in the same place, knowing he was being watched, there would be only one possibility.

He had a trump card.

And the Sea-Stabilizing and Spirit-Orienting Array set up by He Song was the trump card he displayed to other people.

The Sea-Stabilizing and Spirit-Orienting Array was not a Smoke Array, it had no concealment effects.

So, when the Sea-Stabilizing and Spirit-Orienting Array was activated, the surrounding people could see the light emitted by it.

Soon, they would know the specific effect of the Sea-Stabilizing and Spirit-Orienting Array.

It was a large-scale defensive array skill, but it had no offensive capabilities.

With the Sea-Stabilizing and Spirit-Orienting Array by his side, the Foundation Establishment cultivators who would come to attack He Song later would probably unconsciously think that this was where He Song’s trump card lay.

At the same time, they would have a sudden realization:

It was because he had set up such a large-scale defensive array here early on that He Song dared to stay in this place.

With a defensive array like this, He Song could naturally maintain an unbeatable position.

Even if an enemy comes to attack, there would be no danger to He Song before the spirit stones on his body were exhausted.

But who knew how long it would take to exhaust his spirit stones?

However, He Song had never sold a single bottle of medium-grade Earth Spirit Elixir in the Eight-vein Immortal City.

Considering He Song’s behavior in selling medium-grade Earth Spirit Elixirs, it must have been a long seclusive cultivation before he had recently left in hopes of selling the spirit elixirs in his possession.

In other words,

He Song probably didn’t have too many spirit stones on him.

It could even be guessed that the number of spirit stones on He Song might have reached its limit, and he was urgently in need of replenishment.

Otherwise, why would He Song be in such a hurry to sell his medium-grade Earth Spirit Elixirs, and bring so many at once?

In this case, the number of spirit stones on He Song, without being replenished, might not be enough to support him hiding behind the Defensive Great Array for too long.

Hence,

When He Song pretended to run out of spirit stones and suddenly dissipates the Sea-Stabilizing and Spirit-Orienting Array after being attacked for a while, it should not arouse suspicion.

When those enemies rejoiced over the sudden disappearance of the Sea-Stabilizing and Spirit-Orienting Array and entered He Song’s valley, or launched attacks at him from outside the valley,

The Golden Elixir Array, which had been arranged here in advance, would instantly unfold and envelop everyone within the array.

By then… wouldn’t it be a guaranteed success?

In this way, putting on a show to make attacking Foundation Establishment cultivators feel that they had seen through his trump card, lowering their guard and entering his trap,

Would also prevent them from being scared away by He Song’s presence, or being overly cautious and probing multiple times.

The Golden Elixir Array also had its limitations.

Although it covered a large area, if the enemy didn’t enter it at all, it naturally wouldn’t be of any use.

Therefore, after thinking of an excellent plan to lure the enemy in, He Song also felt that everything was under control this time.

He Song didn’t have to wait long:

Master Lie Feng and the other three Foundation Establishment cultivators, who left the city one step later, quickly arrived at He Song’s location under Xu Jie’s guidance while keeping their movements hidden.

He Song’s previous guess was correct; Xu Jie had secretly left a tracking mark on him without his knowledge.

Just as He Song had also unknowingly left a tracking mark on Xu Jie’s body.

Now, He Song’s long stay in the valley was already known to Master Lie Feng through Xu Jie.

Thus,

Feeling that there must be something amiss, Master Lie Feng brought the other three Foundation Establishment cultivators to He Song’s location in secret instead of coming directly in the open.

Knowing that there was something wrong with the situation, Master Lie Feng naturally wouldn’t just rush in blindly.
