Boundary Mountain.
It stretches across the border of the Boundless Realm.
Beyond the Boundary Mountain lie countless forbidden zones for life.
At the same time, the Boundless Dynasty also strictly forbids cultivators from the Boundless Realm from crossing the Boundary Mountain!
Therefore, most people don't know what lies beyond the Boundary Mountain.
A thousand years ago, a first-rate sect believed that there were endless treasures outside the Boundary Mountain.
The Boundless Dynasty forbids anyone from crossing the Boundary Mountain.
It's also because they want to monopolize the resources!
However, when that top-tier sect wanted to cross the Boundary Mountain...
But no one ever came back...
at the same time.
That first-rate sect was thus destroyed...
Nobody knows what happened.
However, because of this incident, no one dared to try to go beyond the Boundary Mountain anymore.
A dog's life is more important...
And at this moment.
Nightfall.
The Yang Lineage family rested in a valley in the Boundary Mountain.
We'll set off the next day.
After the fire was started.
The Yang Lineage's guards were scattered around the perimeter to prevent them from being ambushed by other Lineage or forces.
He Lin was assigning tasks to the remaining five members of the Scale Armor Mercenary Group.
" Gao Yun, you Movement Method the most agile. Go and scout around the valley."
" Dao Bei, set up some formations around here."
"And you..."
As a mercenary.
Now that you've accepted the task, you must strive to complete it.
As a mercenary group.
He Lin is certainly a professional.
Of course, whether it will be effective is another matter.
Yang Qi saw all of this.
He nodded, leaning against the carriage and smiling, " He Lin and his group are trustworthy. It was the right decision to let the Scale Armor Mercenary Group take on this mission. We can try to cooperate again in the future."
"Little sister, you should get some rest."
A pleasant sound came from inside the carriage.
"Brother, I am also a cultivator; I am not that delicate."
"What about the Cottage Mercenary Group? Why haven't you mentioned them, brother?"
Speaking of the Cottage Mercenary Group...
Yang Qi then looked in the direction where Ye Qiubai and the other two were.
His face immediately turned angry!
Ye Qiubai and the other two were all cultivating with their eyes closed!
They showed absolutely no intention of providing protection!
Yang Qi strode over, his face contorted with rage, and shouted, "What exactly are you doing?!"
"Don't you know your mission?"
Ye Qiubai didn't open his eyes, and said calmly, "Don't be so nervous. I'll know immediately if there's any movement around us."
certainly.
Even Ye Qiubai didn't notice it immediately.
It's unlikely that anyone here will notice.
However, Ye Qiubai did not say these words aloud.
He Lin, who was standing nearby, had obviously heard Ye Qiubai's words.
He frowned and sneered, "Boy, even we need to make thorough preparations around here before we feel safe, yet you're cultivating here so peacefully?"
Ye Qiubai did not answer.
Seeing that the three were so unyielding, Yang Qi waved his sleeve and snorted angrily, "You won't get your payment!"
"At that time, I will report to the Mercenary Guild, and you can expect to be disbanded!"
Ye Qiubai felt somewhat helpless.
Why don't you believe it?
However, it's not hard to understand.
After all, the realm he has revealed so far is only the Late Qianyuan Realm.
They don't even have Void God Realm.
What he said naturally lacked any persuasiveness.
This world.
Might makes right.
Only the strong can command the respect of others.
Nighttime at the Boundary Mountain.
It was very quiet.
The air was filled with the chirping of insects, and a gentle breeze occasionally swept by.
The leaves rustled.
Within the Yang Lineage's encampment, the flames were the only light illuminating the place.
Swaying in the wind, the flames appeared graceful and charming at this moment.
The sound of trees burning.
It hisses...
Every now and then, there was the sound of sparks exploding.
But.
The silence was unnatural.
Ye Qiubai opened his eyes.
At the same time as him, Shi Sheng and Xiao Hei also opened their eyes.
Have you noticed anything?
Under the silent cover of the Sword Domain, Ye Qiubai did not notice anything unusual.
However, something is definitely not right about the surrounding environment!
Xiao Hei glanced around, frowned slightly, and said, "There's a faint but palpable killing intent in the air."
The third layer of patterns on the Eternal Devil Body.
It is formed by gathering killing intent!
Therefore, Xiao Hei's perception of killing intent is naturally stronger than that of others.
Shi Sheng looked up at the sky.
There are countless stars there!
What he cultivated was the Power of the Stars.
At night, one's perception is even stronger than during the day!
"We seem to be trapped in a formation..."
Ye Qiubai nodded and said, "A very sophisticated shielding formation. The person who set it up must be quite skilled."
"Moreover, the other party used a jade pendant or similar vessel, on which they had inscribed a formation beforehand, and then released it here."
after all.
It would be impossible to set up a shielding formation right under the noses of Ye Qiubai and his companions.
Unless their strength far surpasses theirs, reaching the Emperor Realm!
but.
This level of formation should not be the work of the Emperor Realm expert.
so.
The only possibility is what Ye Qiubai mentioned.
Xiao Hei turned its head and looked at Ye Qiubai.
"Senior brother, what should we do?"
Shi Sheng also turned his gaze to Ye Qiubai, his eyes filled with complete trust.
Ye Qiubai thought for a moment, then got up and went to Yang Qi's side, saying, "Something's wrong. This place is isolated by an array."
Yang Qi was slightly taken aback.
He then sneered, "You're just a junior in the Qianyuan Realm, and you've been cultivating here all this time. How could you possibly know?"
Ye Qiubai was somewhat helpless, and reminded him again, "I've been using my methods to be vigilant about my surroundings. I estimate that someone will make a move within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn."
Looking at Ye Qiubai's expression.
Yang Qi frowned.
It doesn't seem like someone is just using someone else's power to intimidate others.
Since you want to become a mercenary and survive in this Boundless Realm...
It's impossible to do something so meaningless.
Yang Qi, as the scion of the Aristocratic Clan, was not a brainless person.
Moreover, this is a critical period.
My little sister's safety is absolutely paramount; there can be no mishaps!
Thus, the Yang Lineage's plan fell apart at the last minute.
This is absolutely unacceptable for the Yang Lineage in its current state!
For all these reasons, Yang Qi decided to discuss the matter with He Lin.
So, he came to He Lin's side.
He told him what Ye Qiubai had said.
During this time, He Lin frowned and glanced at Ye Qiubai.
He then took out a jade pendant for transmitting sound.
" Gao Yun, Dao Bei, have you discovered anything unusual over there?"
"No."
He Lin nodded. "Stay vigilant."
After saying that, he turned to look at Ye Qiubai and asked, "How did you find out?"
He simply couldn't believe it.
A junior in the Late Qianyuan Realm.
Sitting here without moving, they can detect things that the arrays they've set up outside can't detect.
Yang Qi also began to have some doubts.
Could it be that they're just using someone else's power to try and make themselves known?
Seeing that the two didn't believe him, Ye Qiubai could only shake his head, not wanting to persuade them any further.
Instead, they instructed Xiao Hei and Shi Sheng to be prepared for battle at any time.
He himself drew the Dark Demon Sword!
