Chapter 212: Catching a Turtle in a Jar

“What is this thing?”

“What happened?”

“When did this wall appear?”

When the people of Ping City woke up, they realized that there were four tall white walls outside the city wall. These four white walls seemed to reach into the clouds and surrounded the entire Ping City in the middle, turning the originally very wide Ping City into a small box.

The people inside could only see the sky above the city wall. As for the sky outside and the land, they could not see anything.

The humans, who were originally calm and composed, finally felt a trace of fear.

“When did they erect these walls here?”

“What’s going on? Where’s the City Lord? The City Lord must have a way, right?”

“I believe the City Lord and the Sword Immortal will definitely have a way!”

But there were other voices. They ran everywhere, shouting.

“It’s over, it’s all over!”

“If the City Lord is reliable, we wouldn’t be in such a predicament now. Others have already built the high wall in front of us. Where is the City Lord now?”

“That’s right. The City Lord has long disappeared. It’s impossible to rely on the City Lord!”

Rumors spread throughout Ping City. Most of them blamed Hu Jiujiu for not appearing and not blocking this danger outside. If Hu Jiujiu had a way, they would not be surrounded like birds in a cage.

A huge elephant Dharma Idol appeared in the sky. In the gray sky, such a pure white sacred elephant was actually so dazzling.

“Everyone in Ping City, surrender early and submit to our Black Dragon Saint. The Saint will forgive your ignorance. Don’t resist unnecessarily. Your defeat is certain.”

After the giant elephant finished speaking, the Dharma Idol slowly disappeared. The huge Dharma Idol that covered the sky and sun only appeared for a moment before disappearing. However, the dignified aura and huge power revealed made the humans in the city tremble.

They had never seen such power before. They only thought that no matter how powerful those people were, they would not be a threat with the Sword Immortal around. However, the strength of these Great Lords seemed to have exceeded their imagination.

“We don’t even know where the City Lord has gone. She must have disappeared long ago!”

“Impossible. How could the City Lord run away? The City Lord will definitely stay behind and guard us until the end!”

“Why are you still being stupid? She’s already run away. Who’s guarding such a city that can’t be defended like a fool with you? I think everyone should quickly think of a way to run. If you really can’t run away, go to the other side and surrender.”

Under such an environment of gossip, even people who were very determined at the beginning began to doubt themselves. There were many people surrounding the City Lord Manor.

“City Lord, what’s going on outside? Why are we surrounded like this?”

“City Lord, what should we do?”

Minglun stood on a platform outside the City Lord Manor and looked at the people below the stage. “Everyone, don’t panic. The City Lord will give everyone an explanation. We have a powerful city protection array to protect everyone. We must work together to tide through this crisis. We can’t panic at a time like this.”

Minglun’s words immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of the people below.

“General Minglun, it’s useless for you to say anything here. Where did the City Lord go? Did she run away long ago?”

“Is there a need to think about it? The City Lord must have run away long ago. There’s no way to fight at all. Do you think the City Lord is a fool and is guarding the city like you?”

“Don’t talk nonsense. The City Lord has done so much for our Ping City. We must believe in the City Lord. How could there be such an unreasonable guess?”

Minglun frowned and looked at them. “Everyone, don’t spread rumors here. The City Lord is currently in the City Lord Manor with the generals to make various arrangements for guarding the city. She doesn’t have time to come out and see everyone now. She might be able to meet everyone when there’s time.”

While they were arguing, on the other side, a figure quietly passed by the ruins of the old city wall of Ping City.

Li Yuanqing left Ping City and arrived under the high wall. He looked up at the high wall that led straight to the sky.

It was covered in dense patterns. It could be seen that the four lords were planning to use this stable method to trap Ping City and ban the people inside with this array. This was like catching a turtle in a jar.

This idea was not bad. It looked quite grand to create such a big box and surround everyone in the city.

Li Yuanqing reached out and touched the wall.

The Blood Vine suddenly ran out of the domain and transformed into a half-human form beside Li Yuanqing. After two days of rest, the form he had transformed into seemed to have become more corporeal. Now, he had a nose and eyes, and his facial features were clearer. In the past, they were simply a pile of flesh and blood. Now, he was barely human.

“Master, this position is too dangerous. If we’re not careful, we’ll be discovered by them. In this imprisonment array, the four forces from the four sides are gathered together and are extremely powerful. Moreover, those are four Formation Arrangement Realm experts. If they cast it together, it can be said to be destructive. They can even destroy the entire city with a single attack.”

After the Blood Vine came out, he carefully studied the wall. He gasped and reported to Li Yuanqing.

Li Yuanqing nodded slightly. As he observed the patterns on it, he asked, “How is it? What is this thing made of? It seems that the patterns on it have a certain connection attribute. If one of them is destroyed, the other places should immediately sense it.”

The Blood Vine explained, “This is made of a special gel. This gel is produced from an ancient tree. The size of this gel can be changed at will, and it has very good energy circulation. An array made of this thing can increase the power by about thirty percent.”

“It looks like a good thing.”

The Blood Vine clicked his tongue in wonder and looked at the thick wall in front of him. “This thing is very precious. Even a small piece of it will cost an astronomical price. Moreover, these four walls are a complete set. They used a lot of materials.”

“In that case, we have to protect this thing well.”

Li Yuanqing had originally wanted to destroy the wall, but after what the Blood Vine said and his observation just now, he realized that this thing was indeed a treasure. His heart would ache if it was destroyed just like that.

Moreover, Li Yuanqing had been practicing his knowledge of array formations recently. If he could obtain such a good gem and expand the array formation on it, he would definitely forge a new Dharma artifact.

Li Yuanqing muttered to himself. The Blood Vine beside him frowned. “Master, isn’t it a little too abrupt for us to be here? It’s bare beside us. If we’re discovered by them, we won’t be able to bear the consequences.”

The Blood Vine looked back timidly in the direction of Ping City. There were only the two of them in this vast empty space. As long as someone looked over, they would be able to find their traces.

The Blood Vine did not want to come out at first, but Li Yuanqing had summoned him. He had no choice but to come out.

However, Li Yuanqing had such a huge treasure in his hands. With such a domain, he could escape at any time. This was a life-saving trump card.

The Blood Vine also knew why Li Yuanqing was so bold. With such a domain, no one could attack him. In any case, he would not die no matter what. It was normal for him to be bold.

Li Yuanqing had no intention of leaving. These people had actually erected such a wall in front of him. If he did not teach them a lesson, they would not know who they had provoked.

There was an array formation on each of the four walls at the four corners. This array formation was set up. A huge light lit up on the disc and soared into the sky, filling the gaps between the walls and connecting the patterns of the two walls.

This way, the entire wall would be complete.

Every array formation was guarded by a demon team.

The four array formations were guarded by the demon teams of the four tribes. Their captains were all experts at the peak of the Spirit Transformation realm. They led six sixth and seventh-grade Spirit Transformation realm subordinates to guard this place to ensure that nothing went wrong.

This array formation was the most important thing in their entire plan. Nothing could happen to it.

Although the defense team they had set up was not strong, there was a defense mechanism from the beginning of the design of this array formation.

If someone wanted to attack from inside, as long as a Spirit Transformation Realm expert was guarding outside, they would be able to gather a huge amount of energy. Even if it was a Formation Arrangement Realm expert inside, it would not be easy for them to escape.

The demon team did not dare to be negligent. They obediently focused all their attention on the array formation and did not dare to slack off at all.

“It’s already been said that today is the most important day. If the people inside can’t take it anymore, they will surrender early and we’ll take down Ping City. Everything will be fine. But if anything happens to us, we will die without a trace.”

This was the guard team of the Bear Clan. They were guarding the array formation. Their boss was circling around his brothers and telling them the importance of it.

The captain had two furry ears on his head and black fur vaguely sticking out of his face. His mouth was wide open, emitting a fishy smell. Even though his subordinates were already dejected and had gloomy expressions on their faces, he did not seem to be moved at all. He was still repeating his words.

“Did you all hear that? I’m talking to you nicely here. If anything goes wrong this time, we won’t be able to keep our heads. Do you know that this is our four clans acting at the same time? If anyone doesn’t do it well, Boss won’t let us off when we return!”

At this moment, one of his subordinates finally couldn’t take it anymore. He looked at him with a bitter expression and said, “Boss, we all know. You don’t have to say it so many times.”

Originally, this big bear was just complaining to them. In the end, this person who stood out and dared to speak nonsense here attracted his attention. He glared at the guy with his two bear eyes and white mist coming out of his nose. “Why? Are you unhappy just because I said a few words to you? Do you understand what I’m saying? I told you to be careful. Why are you still dissatisfied?”

“Boss, how can you say that? We’re not dissatisfied. The few of us understand. Moreover, we’re guarding here well. Nothing will go wrong…”

The brothers’ faces were like bitter melons as they looked at the captain gloomily. However, the captain was not moved at all and replied to them righteously. However, at this moment, a deafening roar attracted their attention.

Inside the array, outside their small array, a majestic giant bear stood there with a small bear beside it.

This giant bear was clearly their Patriarch, Xiong Batian!

The moment the captain saw the giant bear, he hurriedly ran up and knelt on one knee. “My lord, why are you inside?”

Xiong Batian looked at them angrily and said, “Since you know I’m here, quickly open the door and let me out!”

The guards looked at each other. They did not know what their boss was up to.

The captain was about to instruct his subordinates to open the array formation a crack and let his boss in, but he vaguely felt that something was wrong. He turned to look at Xiong Batian awkwardly. “My lord, why are you inside? Aren’t you going to control this array formation with the other lords outside? How can that be?”

Xiong Batian slapped the pillar of light emitted by the array formation. With just a casual slap of his bear paw, the entire pillar of light trembled.

This power was enough to shock them.

Xiong Batian looked at them angrily and said, “Bastard, if not for you, why would I be here?”

Xiong Batian’s words stunned the small team of bearmen.

They were clearly doing their duty here and guarding it well. Moreover, their boss was nagging them repeatedly. There was no end to it. They did not have any space to do anything that broke the rules. How could he push the blame to them?

Just as they were feeling puzzled, Xiong Batian continued, “It’s because there was a problem when you were setting up the array formation that there was a crack in the wall we were guarding. If the people in Ping City discover this and they escape because of this, can you bear the responsibility?”
