Crossing the Cultivation Realm: Two Souls Coexist

At this moment, two monks jumped down from the rock nearby.

A man wearing red clothes, a mask on his face, and holding a formation flag in his hand. It was obvious that this formation was set up by him.

The other one was carrying a Guandao. Although his face was also covered, the reflective top of his head could still be seen, and his exposed eyes were full of greed.

It is obvious that these two are here to rob people. Such skillful operation cannot be achieved in just one or two times.

"Hand over all your thunder beads and we will spare your lives." The monk carrying the Guandao said coldly.

Hu Qing and Gu Yang looked at each other. This was really troublesome and the situation was extremely unfavorable for them.

They were imprisoned by the formation and unable to move, while the opponent had an absolute advantage.

But they are not stupid. The thunder beads are extremely important to them and they must not hand them over easily.

Even if we hand it over, these two might not keep their word, and the consequences will be even worse.

"We don't have thunder beads."

Hu Qing tried his best to make his voice sound calm. He tried to delay time and look for an opportunity to break the formation.

"Humph, don't think I don't know. You killed a lot of thunder beasts along the way, so you must have a lot of thunder beads."

The monk carrying the Guandao sneered, with a hint of cunning in his eyes.

Hu Qing and Gu Yang felt a sinking feeling in their hearts. The other party had already been eyeing them and would not let them go easily.

They must now find a way to break the formation, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous.

Seeing that Gu Yang and Hu Qing had no intention of handing over the thunder beads, the man holding the formation flag raised his hands and drew a new symbol on the formation flag.

As this symbol merged with the formation, light instantly shone everywhere, and the lines of the formation were like chains, tightly binding their bodies.

In the distance, the impatience on the face of the man carrying the Guandao became more and more obvious.

"Aren't you going to hand over the Thunder Pearl? Then you can only wait for death." The man was still threatening them.

Hu Qing's eyes swept across the formation under his feet, his brows furrowed.

He could feel the power flowing through the formation, but he couldn't find any point of the formation.

This was completely inconsistent with the formation arrangement principles he knew, which made him full of doubts.

The last time Fang Ming set up the formation, he was there. Large formations of that level are composed of formation points.

It is very strange that this confinement formation cannot be found.

His gaze finally fell on the man holding the battle flag.

The man stood behind the man with the Guandao sword, motionless, like a sculpture.

His eyes were a little empty, without any expression, and he just held the flag quietly.

Hu Qing's heart moved, and he realized that the key to the problem might lie with the man holding the formation flag.

He put his hands behind his back and quietly gave Gu Yang a signal.

Gu Yang immediately understood and began to chat with the man with Guan Dao about family matters, telling him about the difficulty of killing the thunder beast, trying to attract his attention.

"Brother, we finally killed the Thunder Beast and earned a few Thunder Orbs. Could you at least leave some for us?"

"Stop talking nonsense. I've seen the strength of both of you. Just based on the clothes you're wearing, how can you still make less money?"

The man with the Guandao sword didn't think much about it and squatted next to the formation to chat with Gu Yang.

Seeing this, Gu Yang took out more than two hundred thunder beads from his storage ring, held them in his hand, and said:

"That's all we have, brother, please leave some for us!"

……

Hu Qing took advantage of this opportunity, his soul flew out of the puppet and turned into a phantom.

He held the royal sword in his hand, his figure like a ghost, no, he was the ghost, approaching the man with the formation flag silently.

His movements were so quick that no one noticed.

The man with the Guandao sword was still talking to Gu Yang, and he was completely unaware of the abnormality behind him.

"what……"

It was not until the sword in Hu Qing's hand had pierced the chest of the man holding the formation flag and the man screamed that he suddenly turned around, his eyes full of horror.

The light of the formation suddenly disappeared at this moment, and Gu Yang's body regained its freedom.

Gu Yang didn't hesitate at all. He took the Soul-Devouring Blade and slashed at the man with Guandao.

When the man with the Guandao saw the man with the formation flag die, he immediately turned around and faced Gu Yang, and the two of them immediately started fighting fiercely.

Hu Qing stood aside, his eyes fixed on the battlefield, ready to help at any time.

This Guan Dao man was quite powerful, he was in the middle stage of the Jindan stage, but his fighting method was rather rough and disorganized, so he could only fight Gu Yang on equal terms.

The battle between Gu Yang and the Guan Dao man was extremely fierce. The Guan Dao man was very powerful, and each of his swords made a sound of breaking through the air, as if it was going to split the air.

Gu Yang dodged the opponent's attacks nimbly, and the Soul-Devouring Blade in his hand drew streaks of light in the air, looking for the opponent's weakness.

The attacks of the Guandao man became more and more fierce, Gu Yang's defense became more and more difficult, and the spiritual energy in his body continued to decrease.

Gu Yang wanted to gather his strength to swing out against the wind, but the man with the Guandao got there first, knocked the Soul-Devouring Blade away with the Guandao in his hand, and then chopped it down quickly.

Just when the Guandao man's attack was about to hit Gu Yang, Hu Qing took action.

At this moment, he turned into a flash of lightning, and the royal sword in his hand pierced the back of the Guandao man with a sound of breaking through the air.

The man with the Guandao felt the threat from behind, he turned around quickly, and swung the Guandao in his hand violently, trying to block Hu Qing's attack.

"Shadow Sword Technique: Shadow Stab!"

However, Hu Qing's attack speed was faster. His king sword drew a dazzling light in the air and accurately pierced the chest of the Guandao man.

The man with the Guandao sword's body shook violently, his eyes filled with disbelief.

His body slowly fell down, and the Guandao in his hand also fell to the ground.

Gu Yang stood there, his breathing a little rapid, but his eyes were shining with excitement.

Hu Qing's soul returned to the puppet and his body slowly stood up.

He and Gu Yang looked at each other and saw a hint of relief in each other's eyes.

Fortunately, the man with Guan Dao was careless, otherwise it would be difficult to break the deadlock.

Looking at the mess on the ground, the two men found a relatively clean place to sit down and meditate to restore the spiritual power in their dantian.

The spiritual energy consumed in this battle is more than that used in hunting thunder beasts.

The surrounding land was all charred, and the formation was more concealed when drawn in the cracks of the soil. The two had to be careful on their next journey.

Now I have to get myself into the best condition possible, otherwise it will be difficult to cope with the next challenges.

While the two were recovering their spiritual energy, they were not idle either. They took out the storage rings of the two men, removed the spiritual imprints, and checked their gains.

This set of movements is so smooth and flowing that they don’t know how many times they have done it.

They originally just wanted to give it a try, but they didn't expect that what they saw would surprise them.

In addition to some spirit stones and clothes, they found more than 2,000 thunder beads in the storage ring, which was five times the amount of thunder beads they had earned after working so hard for so long.

Can you earn so much in this line of work?

Gu Yang looked at the pile of thunder beads, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

He looked up at the top of the mountain, estimated that it was still half the distance, and then an idea came to his mind.

He turned to look at Hu Qing and whispered, "Ah Qing, do you think we can also..."

Hu Qing immediately understood what Gu Yang meant. He smiled slightly and nodded.

They hunted hard in Thunder Mountain, but their gains were far less than those of the two robber monks.

If they could quickly accumulate thunder beads in this way, it would undoubtedly be a huge temptation for them.

Hu Qing found a book called "Complete Explanation of Basic Formations" in the storage ring of the man holding the formation flag, which made his eyes light up.

He has always had a keen interest in battle formations, and this book is undoubtedly a valuable resource for him.

He decided to practice formations while robbing, so that he could obtain thunder beads and improve his strength at the same time, killing two birds with one stone.

They did it right away. The two covered their faces with black cloth. Gu Yang took off his sect uniform and put on a black robe.

This won't bring bad luck to the sect. If you really meet someone you can't beat, just say you're from the Wang family.

Anyway, Wang Fengming’s certificate is still in his storage ring, and others can’t tell whether it is real or fake.

The two continued walking up the mountain, preparing to ambush on a path that the monks must pass through.

Such an action is full of risks, but in order to quickly accumulate thunder beads, they are willing to take the risk.

Hu Qing studied the formation as he walked. Sometimes when he had an inspiration, he would stop on the road and set up the formation.

Gu Yang served as his test subject to test the power of these formations.

Sometimes we are attacked by thunder beasts, which are truly natural experiments.

However, because he was not proficient enough in the formation, the formation he set up could not even trap a first-level thunder beast, so he had to analyze the knowledge of the formation bit by bit and study it.

The two of them walked and stopped, and collected a lot of thunder beads.

It seems that the closer you get to the top of the mountain, the more frequently thunder beasts appear, and their grades become higher and higher.

Hu Qing stood under a big tree, holding "The Complete Explanation of Basic Formations" in his hand. His eyes quickly scanned the pages, trying to find the trick to setting up the formation.

The arrangement of the formation requires a deep understanding of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and the precise control of the flow of each spiritual energy.

Fortunately, his mental strength is high enough, and he can handle some basic controls quite carefully.

In the distance, Gu Yang was fighting with a third-level thunder beast, and the man and the beast were fighting back and forth.

Hu Qing took a deep breath and prepared to try to set up a true first-class trap.

He placed the spirit stones in his hand on the ground in a specific order, and then began to mobilize the spiritual energy in his body, guiding the spiritual energy to flow between the spirit stones according to the description in the book.

However, the arrangement of the formation was not as simple as he imagined.

There were always various problems with the formations he set up. Sometimes the spiritual energy didn't flow smoothly, and sometimes the spiritual stones were placed in the wrong position.

He had to adjust it again and again until the formation could barely work.

"Brother Gu, okay, lure it over here!" Hu Qing shouted.

Seeing this, Gu Yang also breathed a sigh of relief. If he waited any longer, the thunder beast would probably be killed by him.

He slashed at the thunder beast's back, cut off a piece of its tail, and then ran towards Hu Qing.
