Mythical Cultivation

Chapter 408: The Cave Appears

The white-haired old man from the Zhang family said in surprise, "Huh, there really is something different! Fellow Daoist You's vision is truly extraordinary. He actually discovered the flaw in the formation so easily."

He originally thought that You Riyue was just speaking casually, but now he realized that he was just being arrogant because he was a formation master.

"Fellow Daoist Zhang, you are too kind! I was just lucky and happened to discover some clues about this formation. To really break the formation, I have to rely on the command of the two fellow Daoists!" Wu Ming waved his hands quickly and said humbly.

"Friend You, please don't say that. If it weren't for your keen eye, we would probably have to grope around in this formation for a long time!"

Another formation master from the Sun family also agreed with a smile, while gently stroking his beard.

Under Wu Ming's guidance, the two formation masters quickly studied the formation.

Sometimes they communicated in low voices, sometimes they made gestures, and before long, they seemed to have found the key to breaking the formation.

They were seen standing in front of the formation, commanding everyone to start the attack in an orderly manner.

Some people are responsible for attacking the weaknesses of the formation, while others are responsible for support.

Everyone performed their duties and cooperated with each other tacitly. For a moment, various spells and magic weapons intertwined in the air, forming a magnificent scene.

Time passed minute by minute, and after about an incense stick of time, suddenly, an invisible wave of vital energy came from the formation.

The fluctuation became stronger and stronger, as if the entire space was shaking.

Just when everyone was surprised, there was a loud "bang" and the originally extremely solid formation was broken!

As the formation was broken, a cave hidden within it gradually emerged.

However, at this moment, a dramatic scene took place.

Originally, when the cave formation was not broken, dozens of cultivators from the three forces were united and cooperated sincerely because they had the same goal.

They each used their own magic to attack the sturdy cave formation together, trying to break it open and find out the secrets within.

However, the moment the formation was broken, the situation changed dramatically.

A group of casual cultivators actually took action in advance without any notice.

The moment the formation was broken, more than ten cultivators from the independent cultivator group rushed towards the cave entrance like a group of hungry wolves. Their speed was so fast that it was astonishing.

This sudden change of events left the cultivators of the clans present somewhat stunned. They had originally thought that everyone would follow their previous agreement and enter the cave together, but the development of the matter was beyond their expectations.

The family monks looked at each other, but then a sarcastic smile appeared on their faces.

They seemed to have anticipated the behavior of these casual cultivators, but they did not expect it to be so unbearable.

So, they decided to stand by and watch these wandering cultivators explore the cave for them!

Sure enough, just after the group of wandering cultivators rushed into the cave, within a few breaths, all kinds of miserable screams were heard from the cave.

These cries came one after another, as if someone was suffering great pain.

Immediately afterwards, a faint smell of blood wafted out from the cave entrance, making people want to vomit.

"Fellow Daoist Xiang, Fellow Daoist Xie, why didn't you two follow them?"

The formation master of the Sun family looked at the two leaders of the wandering cultivators who did not take any action and asked in surprise.

He originally thought that these two people would rush into the cave as impatiently as other wandering cultivators.

But now it seems that they are not completely ignorant and actually have their own plans.

"Haha, Fellow Daoist Sun, you're really joking! We agreed before that after the formation is broken, we will all enter the cave together. I, Xie, am not the kind of person who goes back on my word or breaks my promise!"

After hearing the question from the old man Sun, the middle-aged man with a slightly thin build quickly responded with a smile.

However, the other wandering cultivator who came with him, a white-haired old man named Xiang, did not directly answer the question of the old man Sun.

The old man surnamed Xiang sighed softly, then said slowly:

"Oh, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you all! We, the independent cultivators, don't have family inheritance like you family cultivators.

If we want to continue on this long path of spiritual practice, we can only rely on our personal blessings and opportunities.

As for the rest, we can only leave it to fate!"

When the family monks heard what the old man surnamed Xiang said, they couldn't help but think of their own situation.

The ridicule on their faces gradually disappeared, and they secretly felt fortunate that they had been reborn into a good family and had a powerful family to support them.

Otherwise, they would probably be like these independent cultivators, relying on themselves to fight for opportunities in the cave and become a guiding light for others.

Wu Ming was also staring at the scene in front of him, and his eyes did not reveal the slightest contempt or disdain.

Although he was a disciple of the top sect Qingyun Sect and his status was far higher than these independent cultivators and family cultivators, he had a deep understanding and sympathy for their plight.

Because he knew the inner world of these wandering cultivators very well, their thoughts were exactly the same as his in his previous life.

At that time, he was also at the bottom of society and had a hard life. He could only sigh in envy at the things that the upper class took for granted.

Knowledge determines a person's height and achievements. Wu Ming feels that this sentence is not only applicable to the world of the previous life, but also to all the heavens and worlds.

And compared to ordinary people, the world of monks is undoubtedly more cruel.

Here, if you are not careful, even a wrong step, you may pay with your life.

The independent cultivators not only have to fight against the heavens, but also have to fight against people.

They must fight with their own lives to seize that slim chance of practicing.

Although Wu Ming empathized with the plight of these independent cultivators, he would not take any action because of it.

After all, everyone chooses their own path, whether it is the path of life or death, and they need to bear the consequences themselves.

However, at this moment, the shadow mouse suddenly became unusually active.

It stood on Wu Ming's shoulder and kept squeaking, as if urging Wu Ming to quickly enter the cave to look for treasures, as if fearing that the treasures would be snatched away by other cultivators.

When Wu Ming heard the cry of Shadow Mouse, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a faint smile. He touched the Shadow Mouse's little head to comfort it.

He turned to look at the other family cultivators, then said, "Everyone, now that the formation has been broken, it's time for us to go into the cave and look for treasures!"

His voice was not loud, but it was clearly heard by everyone.
