Yang Junping clasped his hands together, and then pressed them against the ground. The ground first shook, then a faint yellow light screen suddenly rose up from underneath everyone's feet, slowly closing over their heads, protecting them all. This was his newly advanced spiritual technique, the Mountain Guarding Technique.
In reality, Yang Junping had cultivated the Broken Mountain Spiritual Art much earlier than the Mountain Defensive Divine Art, but he had never succeeded in it. On the contrary, after obtaining the Mountain Defensive Spirit Art, he was able to master it in a short period of time.
As for Yang Junping, whose cultivation had just reached the baleful qi realm, it could not be compared with Lu Jing, Yan Zhong, and the others. In the face of the blade storm, his Divine Guardian Technique was only able to last for a short while before it began to falter.
Even so, Yang Junping's performance was impressive enough.
"Brother, it's up to you!"
"Alright, let's go all out!"
Yang Junshan's voice was filled with confidence. As soon as he finished speaking, a large green golden seal rose into the air and formed the Mountain Defence Spell. Despite the countless blades of light striking the barrier, it was unable to shake the barrier at all.
At this moment, Yan Qingxi suddenly shouted out. The Great White Gold Saber trembled slightly and a sharp ray of light shot out from the magical artifact. It then split into dozens of beams of light that shot out in all directions.
This was the first time Yang Junshan had seen her cast a spiritual technique other than the Great White Golden Light Slash. This spiritual technique was known as the "Eight Daggers in the Night".
Dozens of sharp blade lights slashed out. In an instant, they opened up dozens of tunnels within the dense storm of light blades. Hundreds of light blades were shattered.
After Yan Qingxi, Ning Bin also acted quickly. The earth elemental spiritual energy beneath his feet was triggered, and balls of spiritual energy condensed in the air, turning into chunks of flying stones that fell like hailstones, causing the storm of light blades to weaken significantly.
Yang Junshan had seen Zhang Yueming execute this spiritual art before.
Just as Ning Bin finished his attack, he suddenly heard an explosive roar from behind him. The spirits gave him a fright, and he hastily turned around to see that Wu Shuang's eyes were wide open. He opened his mouth and let out an explosive roar, as if he wanted to devour the living.
It wasn't just Ning Bin. Other than the cultivators from the Yang family, almost everyone else's ears hurt from Wu Shuo's roar. Even the sacred art they were using was almost shattered.
A stream of black and red essence energy rushed out from the top of Wu Shuo's head and turned into a huge python. After the light blade landed on the body of the python, it was either swallowed by the python or directly submerged within the body of the python.
From the looks of it, Wu Shuo's sacred art did not seem as impressive as Yan Qingxi's or Ning Bin's, but in reality, this giant python had existed for much longer than their divine abilities. Its effects far surpassed those of the previous two.
Everyone used their abilities one after another, and the continuous storm of light blades was cut to less than half of the original size. Only then did everyone notice that Yang Junshan's protective magical power was still protecting them. Even after the surprise attack of the storm of light blades, that layer of light screen was still not weakened at all, and Yang Junshan was still full of energy, not a single trace of spiritual energy was left.
"Destroy all the light blades in one go! We're afraid of a potential change!"
When Yang Junshan saw that everyone had reduced the speed of the Light Blade Storm by half, he let out a sigh of relief. He thought that the lottery ticket would slow down the speed of extermination to recover the internal spiritual energy, so he reminded everyone.
Yang Junshan was still protecting them from the Light Blade Storm, but because the most dangerous time had passed, they seemed to be a little sluggish. Hearing Yang Junshan's reminder, they felt a little ashamed, so they once again put forth their full strength, and in less than an hour, the last light blade was broken by Su Bao Zhang's finger, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, only to realize that they were all sweating profusely.
At this moment, Yang Junshan slowly withdrew his magical powers. Everyone saw that he was still relaxed, which showed that his spiritual energy accumulation was at an inhuman level. They couldn't help but be amazed.
"Hurry up and leave. If you don't leave now, the fourth light screen that we just opened will close again!"
Yang Junshan was the first to pass through the fourth layer of light screen, and everyone behind him was staggering as they followed him.
"Hey, brother, isn't this the Rust Ore?"
However, after the building collapsed, many of the seals on the surface of the box were broken and many of them were buried underground. Yang Junping picked up a stone from a broken box, and weighed it in his hand as he asked.
Speaking of this Rust Stone, Yang Junshan was the first one to find out about it. After that, the Yang family made a small fortune and reported this to the Heaven Shaking Sect, and also gained a lot of benefits. The rise of the Yang family in the Wasteland Town also started around that time.
Everyone in the cultivation world knew about the Rust Stone, but in the jade state, the greatest benefit of the Rust Stone was that it was obtained by the Heaven Shaking Sect. It was already too late when the other sects received the news.
However, looking at the dozens of boxes of Rusty Plains Stones in front of them, everyone was troubled, mainly because they were taking up too much space. Even if these eleven cultivators all had storage pouches on them, it was impossible to store all of them.
If they could dig out all the spirit jades, they could still reduce the volume by at least three to four times. Furthermore, spirit jades were an extremely important cultivation resource since they were the raw materials for jade coins.
Yang Junshan smiled and said, "Well, anyway, we both used up a lot of energy to resist the backlash of the array, so we need to rest here for a while. It would be a good pastime to grind rocks after training!"
Everyone smiled casually and took their own elixirs, cultivating in meditation. Only Yang Junshan was still sitting on top of a relatively intact box, then he picked out two of the biggest ones on the left and right of the rolling ores in his hands.
Then, with a slight push of his hands, the spiritual energy in his body was channeled into the two ores under the control of his spiritual sense. Then, the outer layer of the ore began to collapse, and pieces of the ore began to fall.
The whole process lasted for less than an incense stick of time. Two spiritual jades that could be split into thirty jade coins and above were in his hands.
"My luck is not bad, but I've been here for a long time!"
Yang Junshan smiled and put the two pieces of spiritual jades into his storage bag. Then, with a wave of his hand, two huge ores fell into his palm once again.
This time, it was obvious that he wanted to increase his speed. Unfortunately, in the end, there were some problems with his control over his spiritual energy. When the two pieces of spiritual jades were cut out, they both suffered some damage.
After pondering for a while, Yang Junshan continued to take up the ore to try to peel it off, at the same time, he was also slowly deepening his control over his spiritual energy. After secretly thinking for a while, Yang Junshan continued to take up the ore to try to peel it off, and at the same time, he was slowly deepening his control of his spiritual energy.
While everyone was recovering their spiritual energy, Yang Junshan threw two more spiritual jades into the storage bag.
Yang Junshan's actions naturally caught the attention of the others. While they were secretly surprised by the density of the spiritual energy in his body, they were also surprised by his control of the spiritual energy in his body.
At this moment, Yan Qingxi, Ning Bin, and the others followed Yang Junshan's example and started to use their spiritual power to cut down the ores in their hands. This was a form of entertainment for them other than cultivating.
Yang Junshan was able to peel off two ores in the time it took to drink a cup of tea. The best person, Yan Zhong, was only able to peel off three ores in the time it took for an incense stick to burn, slightly faster than the first time Yang Junshan started.
The others would often make mistakes in their control of spiritual energy during the process of stripping, causing damage to the spirit jade itself. Even if they became extremely proficient later on, they would only barely be able to reach Yan Zhong's accuracy.
As for Yang Junping, Su Bao Zhang, and Jiu Li, after trying for a while, they gave up on this kind of training and focused on recovering the spiritual energy in their bodies.
As for the spiritual jades that Yang Junshan took out, they didn't put it in their eyes at all. It was just a few spiritual jades, but it cost them two hundred jade coins. No one would think much of it.
After three days and three nights, everyone had basically recovered from the previous loss. While Yang Junshan was still cultivating and recovering, he was stripping off ores, so at least he had obtained a Spirit Jade that was worth close to ten thousand jade coins. He had stripped away all three boxes of ores, and the rest of the people added up had only stripped away six boxes of ores, which was almost twenty thousand jade coins.
After the group recovered, they cleaned up the ruins of the building, only to discover that there was nothing else other than the box containing the rusted ore. They could only turn their gazes to the next barrier.
"The fifth light barrier isn't too easy to break through. I'll probably have to spend several more days."
Yan Qingxi said listlessly, "This is not what we gained last time when we were in the first four layers of light. That's when we met... sigh, whatever it is, our gains are much better than now!"
Yang Junshan smiled and said, "Maybe there will be something good after the fifth hologram!"
"He's comparable to last time?" Yan Qingxi's eyes lit up.
Yang Junshan was stunned, and said, "Then I'm afraid we have to go deeper!"
Yan Qingxi was immediately discouraged. She said, "Who knows if the next barrier will break."
