Chapter 12: There are risks in showing off!

"It's not just a trick, someone has also set up a very powerful ban here, blocking all smells."

Yunhua saw the trick.

She snapped her fingers and a golden light shot out, heading towards the fragrant grass.

The next moment, a clear water wave appeared out of nowhere, covering the fragrant grass underneath like an inverted jade bowl.

"Pfft~"

The golden light hit the "jade bowl" and it immediately broke into pieces.

Seeing this scene, Li Jing immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, it wasn't his nose that was the problem.

Yin Shi Niang was a little hesitant, and looked at Yun Hua and said, "Doesn't that mean that this Yaoxiang grass has an owner?"

"It can't be said that it has an owner." Yun Hua smiled and said, "This Yaoxiang grass grew naturally, but someone discovered it when it was immature, and in order to prevent it from being picked by others, a ban was set.

But as long as someone can break this restriction, the Yaoxiang grass will naturally belong to him, and the person who set the restriction will have no choice but to accept it.

This situation is very common in the world of immortal cultivation, it can be regarded as an unwritten rule."

"So there are such rules." Yin Shiniang nodded, all her doubts gone, and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law knows a lot. It seems that I have to come to your house often to ask for advice after I go back."

After that, she turned to look at Yang Ling again, "If I am bothering you in any way, please forgive me, Brother Yang."

Yunhua pursed her lips slightly, "He complains every day that I stay at home and have no friends to talk to. If you could come and talk to me, he would be so happy that he wouldn't mind."

"I hope you don't mind..."

"Cough cough~"

Yang Ling coughed twice, interrupting Yin Shiniang who was still trying to continue the conversation, "How about we try to break this restriction first?"

"Oh, I almost forgot something!"

Yin Shiniang smiled awkwardly and turned her gaze to Yunhua, "Does sister-in-law know how to break the ban?"

Yunhua shook his head.

She didn't know much about the restrictions, otherwise she wouldn't have failed to notice this restriction that was so close to her.

"Oh no, I don't understand either." Yin Shiniang scratched her head and turned her gaze to Li Jing standing beside her. "Brother Li, do you know how to do it?"

Hearing this, Li Jing immediately walked forward slowly, his young face filled with confidence.

When Yang Ling saw his confident look, he felt a little moved: Good boy, you are trying to show off again!
As expected, Li Jing stepped forward and said calmly, "I can't say I know it, I can only say I know a little bit."

He walked to the restriction, looked at it carefully, and then introduced it to Yin Shiniang: "The so-called restriction is a barrier formed by the power of formations, talismans, spells or magic weapons. There are only two ways to break the restriction.

One is to use absolute force to break it violently, but the disadvantage is that it is easy to destroy the things inside the restriction; the other is to understand the methods used to set up the restriction and disintegrate it in a targeted manner.

For example, the restriction in front of us is based on the water-based talisman. According to the theory of the five elements, we can easily break this restriction by attacking with the earth-based technique!"

Yin Shiniang raised her eyebrows slightly, "Is it that simple?"

"It's that simple!"

Li Jing said confidently: "Li never brags, the earth-moving technique is definitely a way to break the ban."

As he spoke, he held the sword in one hand, made hand gestures with the other, and silently recited a few spells. Immediately, wisps of earth-yellow air emanated from the rocks under his feet and coiled around his sword like a dragon.

After the sword blade was completely wrapped in the ochre-colored aura, Li Jing swung the sword forward fiercely.

"Shh!"

A khaki-colored sword light that was more than a foot wide slashed down with force.

Gravel flew everywhere and dust rose up.

But when the smoke and dust cleared, the water wave barrier that looked like an inverted jade bowl was still rippling with water and looked intact!
"Why didn't it break?"

Yin Shiniang turned around and looked at him in confusion.

The confident smile on Li Jing's face froze. How could this happen?
He had clearly understood the core of this restriction, and the Wuxu Earth Dragon Curse he used was also one of his best spells.

How come I can’t break that damn restriction?
"I'll do it."

Yunhua sighed lightly and took out a jade hairpin from the brocade bag.

The entire jasper hairpin was made of jadeite, shining brightly and crystal clear. At the end was a phoenix with its wings spread soaring into the sky. It did not look like an ordinary object.

This jade hairpin is called the Glazed Phoenix Hairpin. It is a top-grade spiritual treasure. A single stroke of it can even break through the galaxy. Its power is incredibly astonishing.

However, it was given by the Golden Mother Goddess, so Yunhua did not want to use this treasure unless it was necessary.

At this moment, she took the jade hairpin and just made a light stroke, and the water wave restriction silently split into two halves, and then turned into a cloud of water mist and dissipated in the air.

"What an amazing baby!"

Yin Shiniang widened her eyes.

Li Jing was even more hurt.

Why didn’t you use such a powerful treasure earlier?
Seeing his distraught look, Yang Ling felt a little sympathetic towards him.

In fact, with his keen eyesight, he could tell at a glance that the water wave restriction was not intact as it appeared to be after withstanding Li Jing's full-strength sword attack, but was already on the verge of crumbling.

It's just that because of the fluidity of the water waves, the cracks cannot be seen.

This proves that Li Jing's theory was completely correct. If the power of his sword just now was a little bit stronger, he should have been able to break the ban successfully.

Unfortunately, Li Jing seemed to be unlucky today.

I failed twice in a row.

In this regard, Yang Ling could only feel sorry for him and hoped that he could remember the lesson of today——

Pretending is risky!

Be careful when showing off!

……

As the restriction was broken, a faint fragrance emanated from it.

Yunhua stretched out her hand and flicked it, and the fragrant grass broke out of the soil on its own, quickly shrank in the air, and was put into her brocade bag.

At this moment, a sneer sounded.

"Who are you, little thief, to steal from your grandfather?"

As the voice was spoken, a gust of black wind whistled in from the distant forest, and three figures emerged from it.

The leader was tall and burly, wearing a black suit. His face was as deep as black lacquer, he had a thick and neat short beard, a protruding mouth, buck teeth and protruding ears, and looked ferocious.

The two people behind him looked delicate and thin.

A man wearing a white Taoist robe, with a blue face and a cold expression, stared at everyone with a pair of slanted eyes with a half-smile.

The other one was wearing a green Taoist robe, his face was pale, and his green eyes were fixed on Li Jing and Yin Shiniang, looking particularly cold:

"My two fellow Taoists, they were the ones who pushed me off the cliff this morning!"

Upon hearing this, Yang Ling and others looked towards him.

"Are you the green python from this morning?"

The man in green robe said proudly: "My name is Chang Hao, and I am the sixth among the Seven Hegemons of Meishan. Today you trespassed into my territory and pushed me off a cliff!
I was just about to settle this account with you, but I didn't expect you to dare to come and steal the spiritual herbs!"

The Seven Hegemons of Meishan?

Yang Ling's heart moved slightly, it sounded somewhat familiar.

and many more!

Could these Seven Hegemons of Meishan be the Seven Monsters of Meishan who would be beaten in the mud by his youngest son Yang Jian in the future?
