Chapter 1223 - 1271: Mysterious Formation Method

Chapter 1223: Chapter 1271: Mysterious Formation MethodIn the middle of the night, Li Yifei quietly got up. Xu Shanshan immediately woke up, and Li Yifei hurriedly covered her mouth, whispering in her ear, "Shanshan, I am going out now to find a way to notify Elder Murong. Don’t make a sound."

Xu Shanshan gently kissed the palm of Li Yifei, signaling that she understood.

Only then did Li Yifei stealthily leave the tent. With his skills, it was no issue to slip by Park Sung-ho and the other two. And although Wu Chang was very strong, he was now only about as capable as Li Yifei. On this windy mountain, Li Yifei truly didn’t believe Wu Chang could detect him.

However, Li Yifei was also not one to be careless; it was a principle he maintained in life. After tiptoeing about ten meters away, as he was about to leave a message there, a very faint noise came from behind.

Li Yifei didn’t move, but rather took out his ’tool’ and began to pee, shivering while doing it.

"Oh, Old Wu, what a coincidence." After finishing peeing, Li Yifei turned around and saw Wu Chang also peeing not far away.

Wu Chang nodded, saying, "Indeed."

Li Yifei chuckled and said, "They say young people can pee against the wind without wetting their trousers, but elderly pee with the wind and wet their crotch. Old man Wu peeing against the wind really has the air of a young man."

Wu Chang’s face darkened, and he hurriedly turned away, but there was still a wet mark on his trousers, which instantly turned to ice.

Li Yifei chuckled again and brushed past Wu Chang.

Wu Chang glared at Li Yifei, and after finishing peeing, he also returned to the tent. He too was wary of Li Yifei leaving any messages. But seeing Li Yifei had only peed and done nothing else in such cold weather, even with his strong True Qi, he didn’t want to waste it contending with the ghastly climate and hurried back into the tent.

Shortly after Wu Chang left, two white figures appeared where Li Yifei had peed and then quickly disappeared into the night.

The next morning, Li Yifei and Xu Shanshan got up early, and after getting ready, they followed Wu Chang and the others to the highest point of the mountain. However, before descending, Wu Chang carefully

By now, Park Sung-ho and his group were no longer on the summit. Their only responsibility was to deliver Li Yifei and Xu Shanshan here, so there was really no need for them to wait in this icy wilderness.

Wu Chang solemnly said to Xu Shanshan and Li Yifei, "Be more careful this time, we can’t mess around again, or we won’t be able to get in before it gets dark."

Li Yifei nodded, while Xu Shanshan stuck her tongue out at Wu Chang and teased, "It was your own carelessness just now, why blame us?"

Wu Chang rolled his eyes again and said, "Then stop yapping at me non-stop."

Xu Shanshan said with a giggly smile, "Okay, okay, this time I won’t talk to you. I’ll just talk to my brother-in-law."

Once they entered again, Xu Shanshan true to her word stopped talking to Wu Chang, allowing him to lead the way with undivided attention. Meanwhile, Li Yifei and Xu Shanshan chatted intermittently. However, Li Yifei was constantly paying attention to how Wu Chang determined their route. He didn’t believe that Wu Chang could navigate through memory alone. Without any markers, it would be absolutely impossible. Xu Shanshan’s previous antics were to make Wu Chang go through the route again so that Li Yifei could better judge it for himself.

After going through the route twice, Li Yifei, with careful observation, finally found Wu Chang’s method. It was placing a kind of stone that was nearly white against the ice. If you didn’t pay close attention, you would not notice them at all. These stones were elongated, slightly pointed at one end, and whichever direction the tip pointed, that was the direction to head in. Approximately every ten meters, another stone like that would appear, and in more complicated areas, these stones would be more densely arranged.

Through repeated verification, Li Yifei confirmed that this was indeed Wu Chang’s method of navigation, so he completely relaxed, no longer needing Xu Shanshan to cause any more mischief, and continued forward.

This time, their journey was relatively smooth. After about three hours, they arrived at the edge of a canyon. The length of the canyon was not visible from either end, it was more than a hundred meters wide, and its depth was bottomless.

Facing the canyon, both Li Yifei and Xu Shanshan showed expressions of amazement. If they trusted their feelings, it seemed like they had been descending along the hillside. At the summit, such a vast canyon should definitely be visible, but there was no sign of such a large canyon from the mountaintop.

At this moment, Wu Chang remarked, "The ancients were truly remarkable. A Formation Method could completely conceal such a huge canyon. It’s genuinely an ingenious feat."

Li Yifei and Xu Shanshan involuntarily nodded in agreement; the sight was truly awe-inspiring. However, Li Yifei hesitated before asking, "But is this canyon also an illusion created by the Formation Method?"

Wu Chang shrugged his shoulders and said, "Who knows? I wouldn’t dare to test it. Would you?"

Li Yifei curled his lips and shook his head. The canyon was so deep that even for experts like them, falling down would be a death sentence. No one would joke with their own life.

"Now, we must climb down this canyon," said Wu Chang, pointing to the bottomless gulf.

Xu Shanshan curiously asked, "Jump straight down?"

Wu Chang rolled his eyes and said, "I’m not ready to die yet, of course, we’ll climb down."

Xu Shanshan stuck her tongue out and teased, "I thought you were so formidable, capable of anything, even moving heaven and earth."

"What’s there to say? I can’t even beat a little girl like you, how formidable is that." Wu Chang rolled his eyes at Xu Shanshan again.

"Giggle, were you just going easy on me?" Xu Shanshan giggled mischievously.

Now that they were in a cooperative relationship, things seemed harmonious between them. Moreover, Xu Shanshan’s strength had indeed impressed Wu Chang, so the three appeared to be getting along without any gaps.

However, Li Yifei was well aware that anything could happen during this cooperation. If Murong Yuanqing followed them in, it would be one thing, but if they couldn’t enter the Great Formation, whether he and Xu Shanshan could leave alive remained uncertain.
