Primordial Cultivator

Chapter 167 - SkySword Formation



Su Mingxia pointed in a direction while advancing forward and said, "In about three minutes and we should see the cave."

Yang Wei nodded his head.

Sometime later, Yang Wei and Su Mingxia arrived at a particular location with the cave being covered by some tree branches.

Su Mingxia used her spiritual qi to push off the tree branches and started to use her spiritual perception in the cave to make sure there were no traps upon entering.

"Okay, seems like the cave entrance is safe," Su Mingxia clasped her hand as she was glad that there weren\'t any traps in the beginning.

It would be a pain for her to be cautious right from the beginning to avoid the traps.

"Since there is no trap in the cave, we should start preparing," Yang Wei suddenly said as he walked around the surroundings for a moment and checked the terrain.

He was analyzing and memorizing the terrain so he wouldn\'t be in a pinch if there was an unexpected situation.

Su Mingxia smiled slightly as she nodded her head. She started to retrieve multiple spirit stones from her storage ring.

Afterward, she rose to the sky as she scattered the spirit stones all around.

"Yang Wei, stay airborne for a while," Su Mingxia commanded as she began condensing the spiritual qi around the center.

Yang Wei didn\'t say anything further as he leaped up and used his sword to maintain airborne for as long as he could.

Su Mingxia then shouted, "SkySword Formation" and gushed a wave of spiritual qi onto the ground.

The spirit stones that were scattered by Su Mingxia began trembling as it shot a beam of light up, creating a transparent barrier around the cave.

Although it was invisible, Yang Wei could feel the profound aura surrounding the cave that wasn\'t present before.

"S-Such a powerful formation could be created in an instant." Yang Wei mumbled softly as he was amazed by Su Mingxia\'s talent.

Meanwhile, Su Mingxia showed a haughty expression as she dropped to the ground and glanced at Yang Wei.

"How was the formation? Do you feel the profoundness of it?" Su Mingxia then asked when Yang Wei landed next to her.

Yang Wei nodded his head.

"Mhm, as expected of our instructor, your capability and prowess really opened my eyes." Yang Wei praised her sincerely.

Su Mingxia was dazed for a moment at Yang Wei\'s reply. \'Damn, caught me by surprise for a moment. Yang Wei really can\'t lie properly as Elder Jing has said huh.\'

Su Mingxia was sure that if it were someone else to witness her performance, their reaction would have been different from Yang Wei.

However, she decided to ignore the topic and said, "Now that I have set up a defensive formation, we would be prepared if that tracker in Luo Xue was targeting or not."

And she continued, "Either way, it would only benefit us to have a defensive formation in case of any unexpected danger."

"Agreed."

Su Mingxia gave a light smile as she entered the cave with Yang Wei. After her previous spiritual perception around the cave, Su Mingxia knew where the item she was looking for was.

"There are some hidden tunnels here that lead downward and the item is just out in the open." Su Mingxia said.

While Su Mingxia and Yang Wei continued to explore the cave, there was a group of black-cloaked people that just arrived at the cave.

"What do we do now, commander? There is a defensive formation around the cave." A person suddenly said.

The commander gave a solemn expression as he said, "Seems like they have figured out they were being followed so they created a defensive formation."

The commander then walked closer for a bit and he could sense the formation starting to fluctuate if he got close to a certain distance.

"Hmph, this kind of formation is really tricky. We shall retreat further and wait for them to come out." The commander clenched his fist as he ordered the rest of his men to retreat.

The men didn\'t rebuke the order as they all retreated in a swift but soundless motion.

Meanwhile, back inside the cave, Su Mingxia suddenly halted her movement as she raised an eyebrow.

"Weird, I clearly felt my SkySword Formation was fluctuating but then it suddenly stopped." Su Mingxia mumbled softly.

"What happened, Su Mingxia?" Yang Wei asked.

Since they were now in the cave, Yang Wei no longer felt the need to call her alias and directly said her name.

Su Mingxia didn\'t seem to mind as she explained the situation to Yang Wei.

Yang Wei rubbed his chin for a moment and his expressions turned solemn.

"It seemed like we were lucky enough to find the tracker from Luo Xue\'s body since there were people coming after us." Yang Wei said as he became more confused by the situation.

They had only arrived at Ling City last night and hadn\'t even offended anyone so it was confusing how they were being chased.

However, Yang Wei became dumbfounded when he saw Su Mingxia acting weird.

He narrowed his gaze as he stared deeply into her eyes and Yang Wei had a bad premonition about this situation.

"S-Su Mingxia, please don\'t tell me you know exactly who they are." Yang Wei stuttered, hoping that Su Mingxia would shake her head in response.

Alas, Su Mingxia took a deep breath as she decided to come clean. "Alright, I guess hiding it any longer wouldn\'t matter anymore when they found my location already."

Yang Wei staggered as he waited for Su Mingxia to continue her explanation.

"Well, it\'s not that big of a deal except that my family has been trying to force me to marry a trash young master and I simply escaped the sect to avoid the complication." Su Mingxia explained as she shrugged her shoulders.
