After putting away the eight-petal fire lily, the two continued to explore the underwater garden.
Half an hour after the first attack, the formation released arrows again.
Like before, Yu Nianzhen used his heavy mountain strike to resist while Jiang Yue used his whip.
"This can’t go on." Jiang Yue said after the attack ended.
His face was bloodless, and his eyes were solemn.
Yu Nianzhen was no different.
Compared to the first attack, the second attack was especially fierce.
This showed that the formation’s attack power increased with ti.
If this continued, they could only resist one or two more attacks.
"Let’s find so people to break the formation." Yu Nianzhen said.
After analysing the formation in the underwater garden, Yu Nianzhen realised it was quite different from the four-turn formation.
Where the four-turn formation could be broken by one person, the water boundary formation couldn’t.
This was because it had nine formation nodes, and all nodes had to be neutralised within ten breaths after the first node was broken.
If they were proficient formation masters, they wouldn’t need other people to participate.
However, Jiang Yue was a beginner, and Yu Nianzhen was even less proficient.
In this situation, they needed the assistance of others.
"There is soone over there." Jiang Yue pointed towards the south.
When Yu Nianzhen looked, he saw a young cultivator standing fifteen tres from their location.
The young man wore a plain green robe and didn’t wear any identifying marks.
Because of this, the two couldn’t tell which region the young man belonged to.
However, they couldn’t be choosy in this situation.
Only a few people had entered the underwater garden.
If they insisted on working with cultivators from the righteous or neutral factions, they may not have enough to attack all the nodes at once.
After all, many cultivators had already been killed by the formation attacks.
"Let’s go."
Yu Nianzhen took a step toward the other cultivator, and Jiang Yue followed closely behind.
When they were five tres behind the cultivator, Jiang Yue decided to call out to gain the other’s attention.
"Fellow Daoist..." He called.
The other was startled, and he imdiately turned to face them.
He held a sword in his hand, but when he saw them, his sword hand shook lightly.
Before Jiang Yue could say anything, the cultivator ran away without a word.
"Why did he run?" Jiang Yue was surprised.
He looked at Yu Nianzhen and saw that the other didn’t look good.
At this ti, he seed to realise what had happened.
"Don’t worry. Even if everyone treats you like a fiend, I will always be here."
He chuckled lightly and walked to where the young cultivator was previously standing.
"Look, it’s a mosaic flower."
Jiang Yue was extrely happy when he saw the flower.
Normally, mosaic herbs would grow above water so that the flower could soak in a lot of sunlight.
However, it was sohow growing in water, which made Jiang Yue appreciate the underwater garden even more.
"It has twelve petals which shows it is already a low-grade spirit rank herb."
"Our luck is not bad."
Yu Nianzhen was also happy.
A mosaic flower was one of the herbs used to refine elent cleansing pills.
In most cases, ten years or a hundred years old mosaic flowers would be used for the pills.
However, the effect would be greatly magnified if a thousand years old; spirit rank mosaic flower was used.
"This is great."
Jiang Yue picked the herb and handed it to Yu Nianzhen.
After exiting the secret realm, both of them would retreat to break through to the qi transformation realm.
However, a lot of preparation was required before they could break through.
One such preparation was refining an elent cleansing pill.
There were five types of elent cleansing pills corresponding to the five elents.
By taking an appropriate elent cleansing pill, a cultivator could purify the elent aspect of their qi.
Essentially, the elent cleansing pill was an advanced version of the qi cleansing pill.
"We should really find an alchemist to partner with." Jiang Yue said.
Although elder Chen was a famous alchemist, Jiang Yue wasn’t close to his master.
Even if he was close to her, it was impossible to ask a fifth-rank alchemist to frequently refine low-rank pills.
"Master Yang has a nine suns origin, why didn’t he beco an alchemist." Jiang Yue grumbled as they continued to walk.
"The fire of the nine suns is too violent. It’s unsuitable for alchemy."
After that, the two dropped the topic.
Instead, they focused their attention on searching for herbs and other cultivators.
An incense stick later, they ca across a group of people.
This group consisted of one woman and five n.
What was interesting was that the group moved in a sort of circle formation.
The woman stood at the centre while the five n surrounded her on all sides.
"They have been fascinated." Yu Nianzhen said.
From what he could see, the five n were not lucid.
Each had an intoxicated expression, and all looked at the woman with adoration.
They looked ready to die for her, and Yu Nianzhen suspected that they surely would in the next formation attack.
"She looks like a cultivator from the Heavenly Flower Cult."
Jiang Yue frowned when he saw the woman’s red robe and distinctive face makeup.
The Heavenly Flower Cult was a major sect in the Cangxing world.
It belonged to the evil faction, and all its cultivators were won.
Over the years, Jiang Yue had heard stories of how won from the Heavenly Flower Cult plundered yang to nurture yin.
Although it was an evil faction, it was more tolerated than most other evil sects because its thods were not as visually vicious as others.
"Two heroes, will you join us?" A female voice floated to Jiang Yue and Yu Nianzhen.
The two were only a few tres from the woman, and her voice carried a seductive lure that was hard to resist.
Unfortunately for her, she had encountered Jiang Yue and Yu Nianzhen.
These two could appreciate beauty, but in two lifetis, they were only attracted to each other.
Even now, the woman’s lure could not affect them.
"Fellow Daoist doesn’t need to try so hard." Jiang Yue sneered and glared at the female cultivator.
The woman was taken aback, but she was not discouraged.
A red light flashed in her eyes, and she looked at Yu Nianzhen in the eyes.
"Handso..." She began, but Yu Nianzhen did not allow her to finish.
Initially, he was indifferent.
He didn’t care that the woman was an evil cultivator.
What he cared about was whether the woman would join up to break the formation.
If she joined up, her slaves would naturally follow, and they would beco a party of eight.
At that ti, they would only be one short to break the formation.
However, the woman had tried to trap them, which Yu Nianzhen couldn’t tolerate.
In his previous life, he had lost his chance with Jiang Yue.
How could he be willing to take risks with his new chance?
Because of that, he imdiately felt that the woman couldn’t be kept.
"Drifting wind sword."
Yu Nianzhen swung his sword, and twelve wind blades rushed toward the woman.
The wind blades’ speed was greatly reduced because of the water, but they still caught the woman by surprise.
"How can you resist my voice allure?" The woman asked.
Her voice was filled with anger as if their resistance was a personal affront to her.
In fact, it was an affront.
The won of the Heavenly Flower cult cultivated techniques related to the five senses.
There were techniques related to sll, sight, taste, sound, and touch.
Before she started cultivating, the female cultivator was a perforr.
She was known far and wide for her ethereal voice.
It was because of her voice that she was recruited to the Heavenly Flower Cult.
Her origin and cultivation technique were also related to her voice.
With such layers, it was difficult to accept that two young n could completely resist her charming voice.
It was not uncommon to et soone who could shake out her allure.
However, this was the first ti she t people of the sa generation and cultivation who weren’t captivated even for a breath.
"Your voice is not as charming as you think." Jiang Yue said with a mocking smile on his face.
When she heard that, the woman beca angrier.
A mont later, a seductive voice echoed in the minds of the five n.
Soon after, they placed all their attention on Jiang Yue and Yu Nianzhen.
Their eyes were red, and they growled as if they had encountered their greatest enemies.
"Kill them for ." The woman said.
Her voice was filled with coquetry and unntionable promises.
When they heard her words, weapons appeared in each of the five n’s hands.
Soon after, they rushed toward the two; their eyes filled with heroism and willingness to sacrifice.
