Chapter 1056: 1056 Draw the Ground as a Prison! (Chapter 2)

The outside scene transformed into an image and flashed before everyone’s eyes.

Whether it was Wu Yang Venerable or the owner of the Library Pavilion, their expressions were not so pleasant. Surely, Ye Qiu’s words proved true: when the wall falls, everyone pushes. Even a midflow ancient clan dared to oppose Yun Shang Palace, as expected, money stirs hearts.

"Although this grand formation temporarily protects us, it also confines us. Everyone, let’s think of a way to deal with this," said Yun Boss.

Meanwhile, Yun Boss also revealed that the grand formation could last for at most a month.

Everyone was solemn. What the end of that month implied was evident without words.

The range covered by the formation was immense, which only Yun Shang Palace could afford. Any other ancient clan would exhaust their entire savings trying to maintain it for even three or five days.

Someone suggested reducing the formation as that could prolong its duration.

Yun Boss shook his head, "The energy baryte positions of the grand formation won’t change. The idea of reduction is impossible. If one place is moved, it could inadvertently cause the automatic collapse of the formation."

Regarding the formation aspects, everyone was unsure and looked towards Ye Qiu, hoping he might have a solution.

"Yun Boss is right. The formations of Yun Shang Palace are not simple. They form an intricate grand formation. Even if I wanted to set it up now, I couldn’t." Ye Qiu said.

Ye Qiu had considerable formation knowledge, but this complicated grand formation of Yun Shang Palace was not something to be completed in a short time. It required careful interlinking, which Ye Qiu couldn’t achieve. The formations he could currently set up were at most of level two, while Yun Shang Palace’s formation, at least level three or four, required extensive time to study.

"Unable to reduce the formation, it seems we must face them head-on," Shui’er said.

Everyone remained silent, unable to find the best solution against the three major ancient clans.

Although the formation temporarily protected everyone, it also became everyone’s cage, leading to a self-imposed imprisonment.

"I will try to lure them into the formation," Ye Qiu suddenly stood up, considering using himself as bait to attract the three major ancient clans into the formation.

"Hold on, doing that is dangerous. The formation’s death traps are extremely perilous; entering them will be beyond our control," Yun Boss cautioned.

"But, we have no better options," Ye Qiu said stubbornly.

Nobody could stop Ye Qiu. Moments later, Ye Qiu reached the edge of the formation, his figure flickering before the three major ancient clans.

"Here I am, Ye Qiu. Don’t you three major ancient clans want to kill me? Come, I’m waiting for you here."

Ye Qiu stepped out of the formation, standing right in front, his voice instantly reaching the ears of many ancient clan martial artists ahead.

Ye Qiu had emerged.

Shush, shush, shush.

Many eyes gathered towards him.

Ji Changtian’s eyes glowed first: "You scoundrel, do you realize you can’t escape death after all?"

Ye Qiu replied calmly, "If you can kill me, go ahead and try."

Simultaneously, Ye Qiu provocatively beckoned with a finger, fully disregarding Ji Changtian as the clan leader of Ji Clan.

"You bastard..." Ji Changtian immediately burst with momentum, ready to strike. At that moment, Ji Baishi placed a hand on Ji Changtian and said, "Don’t be easily angered. That is not the mindset a clan leader should have. Didn’t you realize he’s provoking you to lure you into the formation?"

Upon hearing this, Ji Changtian felt ashamed and quickly lowered his head, "Old Ancestor, it was my negligence. I almost fell for that kid’s trick. Your teaching is right."

Then, Ji Changtian sneered, "Ye Qiu, do you want to lure me into the formation? You will be disappointed. I won’t kill you now; the day this formation automatically disappears will be the day I, Ji Changtian, take your life."

"Pitiful for a clan leader, lacking such courage," Ye Qiu sneered before returning inside the formation. His plan had been exposed by Ji Baishi, leaving Ye Qiu with no option. The opponent lived long and was a seasoned old fox. Ye Qiu’s idea was quickly seen through, perhaps he underestimated the old ancestors of the three major ancient clans.

Faced with Ye Qiu’s disdain, Ji Changtian could only hold back his anger, awaiting the formation’s dissolution for his chance to exact revenge.

Seeing Ji Changtian enraged and unwilling to enter the formation to deal with Ye Qiu.

The clan leader of Sun Clan proactively said, "Perhaps our clan’s martial artists should go in to investigate and assist Ji Clan Leader in capturing him."

Seeing Sun Clan’s proactive offer, Ji Changtian certainly did not refuse and said, "Alright, I appreciate Sun Clan Leader’s assistance."

Thus, several martial artists from Sun Clan entered the formation.

However, it wasn’t long before a few bodies were hurled out of the formation and the Sun Clan Leader’s expression turned somewhat sour.

"Is the Sun Clan Leader dumb? Knowing it’s dangerous to send martial artists into the formation, yet he still sends people, aiming to flatter Ji Clan needn’t be like this," someone murmured softly.

"I think not. Didn’t you see the ones dead were quite weak? Just True Qi Realm. How could such folks assassinate Ye Qiu? Remember, Ye Qiu previously even dealt with a Human King Realm. I think Sun Clan Leader’s move intended to show an attitude, expressing willingness to serve Ji Clan..."

Witnessing this scene, many murmured quietly, Shi Lie understood the implications of Sun Clan’s actions better than others. He felt Sun Clan wanted to rise among the three major clans replacing Shi Clan’s position. Sending martial artists into the formation wanted to please Ji Clan, indicating their willingness to work for it.

"Good tactic by Sun Clan, aspiring from top stream ancient clan to one of the three major clans?" Shi Lie’s face remained expressionless, but thoughts ran wild within.

Having executed a few lowlife individuals, Ye Qiu returned somewhat disappointed to Yun Shang Palace.

"The major clans aren’t easy to deceive; best ponder other solutions," said the Library Pavilion master.

At this time, everyone’s thoughts nearly burst with attempts to resolve the current crisis—yet they hadn’t found a good method.

As days passed, inside the formation, everyone was frustrated, unable to untangle their deadlock with the three major ancient clans, they remained huddled within the formation.

Outside the formation, the people from the three major ancient clans took turns guarding, always attentive to movements within the formation, the five Human King Realm martial artists never left, showing commitment to not leave until the issue with Yun Shang Palace was resolved.

Other ancient clans placed outside the conflict observed this scene could only sigh, the three major ancient clans were not to be provoked—even a power as strong as Yun Shang Palace was now perilous, heading towards demise.

"In my view, Yun Shang Palace’s mistake was siding with Ye Qiu, else it wouldn’t end up like this."

"Indeed, now the three major clans knowing he’s the last of the Du Gu family, they certainly won’t let him go. No matter how talented Ye Qiu may be, he can hardly escape his fate of death."

"The outcome of this battle is already clear, likely ending in less than half a month, concluding this great war."

Because of Ye Qiu, many major forces engaged in conflict, finally nearing an inevitable conclusion. Others also foresaw the day when the formation stops automatically, bringing about the final battle.
