There were many ways to sever earth veins: Vein-Breaking Stakes, Blood-Polluted Filth Earth, reversing the five elements, constructing a Dragon-Slaying Altar, or Earth Vein Grafting.
But without exception, all these methods required preparation.
They were fighting far from home and could not possibly have brought everything with them. Even gathering the materials on the spot would take time.
By the time they had everything ready, the yin energy would already have finished converging.
That left only one way to sever the earth veins!
They had to destroy the earth vein qi eyes with overwhelming power, disabling them temporarily.
With the earth vein pathways cut off, the yin energy would no longer be able to converge through them.
The problem was that they had the overwhelming power they needed-the Heavenly Sword Star, for instance!
They also had people who could locate the earth vein qi eyes, such as the Heaven-Rank Feng Shui Masters!
But the two could not work together!
Earth vein qi eyes were mysterious things. They had no fixed locations, instead wandering throughout the earth veins.
Unless they were pinned down, there was no way to catch them.
But pinning down a qi eye required materials and time!
The Grand Feng Shui Masters could locate the qi eyes in real time through sympathetic resonance, but they could not share their perceptions with the Heavenly Sword Star.
Even if the Heavenly Sword Star reacted incredibly quickly and struck the moment a Grand Feng Shui Master pointed somewhere, they were still two different people. True synchronization was impossible.
With luck, the qi eye might not have moved before the attack arrived. But if the attack missed, it would agitate the qi eye, causing it to move rapidly.
The chances of hitting it on the next attempt would be even slimmer.
