The man froze for a moment at those words. "Damn, are you crazy? We're tearing up the earth veins too?
"How long would that take? With that kind of time, we'd be better off dismantling the Mountain-Guarding Grand Formation!"
He had only been venting offhandedly, but the moment the words left his mouth, he paused.
He blinked, then slapped his forehead. "That's right, the Mountain-Guarding Grand Formation!"
Under normal circumstances, his strength would never have been enough to dismantle the Blood Shadow Sect's Mountain-Guarding Grand Formation.
But the formation had just been cleaved open by Xu Changxing, leaving a breach.
At a time like this, just a few Core Formation elders proficient in formations could dismantle it.
And he happened to know a little about formations.
At that thought, his eyes lit up. "Why bother tearing up the earth veins? Just blow them up with talismans and be done with it.
"Take as many spirit stones as you can.
"Once you've collected the spirit stones, come with me to dismantle the Mountain-Guarding Grand Formation!"
For a time, these Blood Shadow Sect cultivators burst with boundless enthusiasm, all the apprehension they had felt when the sect was first breached completely gone.
While Xu Changxing watched these Blood Shadow Sect cultivators plunder their former sect, news of the sect's destruction had already begun spreading rapidly.
Within the Setting Sun Sect, Shi Haoyan was tending to his spirit herbs when his Dao Attendant disturbed him again.
"Ancestor, something huge has happened!"
Watching the Dao Attendant shout as he ran, Shi Haoyan could not help frowning slightly.
This time, however, he did not reprimand the Dao Attendant, but asked directly, "What's happened now?"
The young Dao Attendant answered between gasps, "It's Ancestor Xu! He just slew Li Guihe of the Blood Shadow Sect!"
