The Ruler
129. Shangguan Bai's.
The cave room became quiet. In the presence of the guardian beasts, Qing Ruo continued to work on making the key to the formation protection spell formation and the killing formation spell in the cave area that became the residence of the Bei Tian Mountain Lord.
Outside the cave.
Five kilometers from the center of the forbidden territory. Dugu Chen and Dugu Cai as well as the elders who were focusing on paying attention to the battle taking place, were so shocked that the place suddenly became silent. Even the sound of the lightning explosion that they had previously been able to see had also disappeared from that place.
" Sister, we better check the place out." said one of the elders worriedly.
" But what about the wild animals that guard the place."
" We'd better take a look."
" Good.." then hurried to lead his entourage, moving closer to the center of the forbidden territory.
" Brother Leng, how is it? Are we checking in too?" dugu Cai asked, looking at the worried looking Dugu Leng.
After thinking for quite a while, Dugu Leng finally nodded his head.
" Alright, it seems so" said Dugu Leng, moving after the five elders.
Looking at Dugu Leng and Dugu Cai, who were moving after the elders, the dozens of warriors who were in that place then also moved along following examining the center of the previous battle.
***
Area in the mountain.
the five elders who were about to inspect the center of the battle earlier, suddenly stopped their movements. From a distance of two hundred meters, seeing thousands of ferocious beasts still in place, preparing to welcome their arrival.
" Has the young warrior been killed?" With a curious face.
" Sister I don't know either. But I suspect that the young man has entered the forbidden cave."
" I don't think it's possible. If he really entered the cave, how could the guardian animal be silent" said another interjected.
Not only were the elders so curious, but everyone who came to the place.
" Given the early morning hours, are we going to strike soon?" ask someone.
" It seems so," said the other.
" If so, let's attack."
" Attack!" Someone gave the order.
" Swhuss.swhus..." The warriors sped up, attacking the army of ferocious beasts that were on guard.
But the moment they moved to attack, they were suddenly startled by a loud roar from within the cave that shook the entire Bei Tian mountain peak region.
" Swhus...." Giant wind shot out from within the mouth of the cave, sweeping across the area like transparent sword blades that shot out in various directions.
" Retreat!" Shouted the elders, while moving away from the sweep of the wind, but unfortunate for Dugu Chen and Dugu Cai, the two of them moved in the wrong direction. Together with several other warriors, they were both hit by the sword wind blade shot.
" Dhuar. dhuar..." The blades of wind struck their defensive shields and blew them up.
" Akh.." he cried out in pain, as the wind threw their bodies hard, so that it hit the giant trees and knocked them down.
At the moment when Dugu Chen and Dugu Cai and the swordsmen were thrown, a loud roar resounded from within the cave, firing the same blade of wind sword, sweeping across the entire opening of the area.
" This is a new phenomenon. It seemed like the ruler of Bei Tian mountain had already levelled up."
" Right, this wind attack is very powerful..." While releasing the defensive shield, and moving backwards.
The appearance of the sword wind attack from inside the cave made the thousands of ferocious beasts that were in that place so happy.
Not long after, suddenly a dense white fog appeared, enveloping the entire forbidden area.
" Brother, what should we do? If we enter this area of illusory fog, we will be trapped inside."
" Brother, I don't know either. This time our efforts to obtain those resources are really difficult."
From a distance of three kilometers, they could see that the white fog was spreading more and more, covering the entire forbidden area, making the warriors further away and keeping their distance from the place.

In the cave.
The Qing Ruo who had finished making the protection formation spell and the killing formation spell, chatted casually with the golden-clawed white Tiger, speaking with the golden-clawed Tiger, waiting for the reports from the guardian animals who checked the situation that occurred outside the cave.
" Young master Qing Ruo, until when did the attack of the Wind Blade formation, and this illusory fog survive?'
" As long as the core formation is not broken. Besides, I suggest that your highness also keep a close eye on him." while explaining how to take care of the core of the two formation spells.
" Good sir."
" Your Majesty, actually this illusory fog is still not that effective, because someone with stronger soul power, could use golden eyes or use god consciousness to get out of his trap. There is an even more effective way, but it is a little risky" Qing Ruo said.
" Mister Qing Ruo, Go ahead..."
" Air poison," Qing Ruo replied.
" Mister Qing Ruo is right. Other than the illusory power that confuses perception, the poison power that undermines conditions and freezes blood would be an incredible combination of defenses, but this matter, I will talk about it with my servants..."
" Your Majesty is right. It's best that something like this should be decided together," Qing Ruo said calmly.
The white tiger nodded its head, agreeing with Qing Ruo's opinion.
" Mister Qing Ruo, actually up to this point, I am still so curious. How can you be free from the rules of space and time in this place?"
But Qing Ruo did not have time to answer, suddenly the guard animals entered the room, and reported the situation that occurred outside the cave.
" Your Majesty everything is going well. The Wind Blade formation's spell attack completely distanced the warriors from the forbidden area, even the illusory fog made them keep their distance even more." The golden wolf, explained.
" Good, that means this formation spell works well. Your Majesty, since my duty has been completed then I resign. But before that, does anyone want to ask?"
" Young master Qing Ruo, what about the power of lightning.." said the golden canine wolf hesitantly.
" You mean sir?" qing Ruo asked kindly.
" We didn't see the slightest bit of lightning power coming out of these two formation spells."
Qing Ruo nodded her head understanding the intent of the ferocious beast.
" The lightning is Shen Guoshi Qing's ultimate power symbol. If I were to place it inside one of the formation spells, it would be a suspicion that I have cooperated with you guys, and it would give off the impression that you guys are already overpowered. If so then people will no longer consider you the ruler of this place."
The beasts nodded their heads.
" Young master Qing Ruo is right. I'm Shangguan Bai, will remember your favor." said the golden-clawed white tiger introducing his name.
" His Highness Shangguan Bai. I Qing Ruo will remember all of you and this Bei Tian mountain." while cupping his hands respectfully.
After saying goodbye, Qing Ruo then left the place.
" So young, and so talented. What a genius of an ancient god is terrifying," said Shangguan Bai, speaking to his servant, gazing at Qing Ruo's departure with admiration and respect.
" Your Majesty is right. If indeed from the beginning Young master Qing Ruo wanted to do evil to us, perhaps the current would not be able to deal with his attack."
" You're right, despite his low cultivation level but the strategies and skills he possesses, it's not difficult for him to take all the soul-strengthening golden grass," Shangguan Bai said, then continue their secret conversation.
