Chapter 87 - Poison Array Battle. Heh, Poison Array Battle! (1/2)

They’re coming…
Or rather, they’re finally here.
In the darkness, Li Changshou heaved a sigh of relief.
He was not afraid of thieves stealing, but he was afraid of being targeted by thieves.
Li Changshou felt a little pressured as these enemies did not appear for a long time.
Ever since he obtained the ring given to him by Elder Wan Linyun half a year ago, Li Changshou had begun preparing for the third stage of the battle.
Now, it was time to test the results…
If the other party wanted to launch a sneak attack, they would have to approach the Immortal Du Sect from underground. Then, they would attack.
That would give Li Changshou a lot of room to maneuver.
The direction in which the other party appeared, and their path…
I was right!
Although for safety reasons, Li Changshou had also ambushed the paper effigies with ‘Earth’ characters under the ground of the other five possible paths, the enemies were behaving favorably.
The path that they had chosen to launch a sneak attack was one of the three main paths that he had set up.
The only thing that Li Changshou found to be unideal was that the opponent had launched a sneak attack two to three months apart from the time that he had expected…
In fact, Li Changshou had previously guessed that he and Elder Wan Linyun might have caused the mastermind to give up on destroying the Immortal Du Sect after they schemed against him…
However…
The enemies arrived late, but they still arrived.
At that moment, the seven paper effigies with the ‘Heaven’ character remained motionless. They hid outside the mountain gate and waited quietly.
Their purpose was still to surround the rear after the great battle.
That battle tactic did not change.
On the other hand, the six paper effigies that had the character ‘Earth’ written on them, were distributed along the six paths that Li Changshou had found in advance. He had spent two to three months setting up many simple poison arrays on those six paths.
What was the Poison Array?
Of course, they were array formations that poisonous pills were added to.
What was different was that the poison arrays that Li Changshou had set up were very obscure and slightly bewitching. His goal was for the arrays to not be easily detected.
Once someone entered the array, the poisonous powder and poisonous fog would explode instantly. None of their poisonous properties would be wasted!
That was the true essence of the Poison Array that Li Changshou understood!
When Li Changshou set up the poisonous arrays, he had never thought that he could use them to destroy his enemies.
The reason was simple. Since the other party dared to attack the Immortal Du Sect, which was guarded by a Golden Immortal, they must have a Golden Immortal expert as well…
In fact, Li Changshou had even considered that the other party might have a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal. He had also made the corresponding arrangements.
However, with the poison array he had set up with the “divine” paper effigies, he would be able to destroy the enemies easily even if their Golden Immortal was powerful.
Therefore, the poisonous arrays could only be used as land mines that would instantly explode.
Li Changshou decided to let the paper effigy lay in ambush only because he reckoned that the other party had at least two Golden Immortals. He did not call for Elder Lin Yun to help him.
He wanted to prevent him from raising his bronze-skinned walking stick and going to fight the Golden Immortals for the sake of Ren School.
The functions of the six paper effigies were to disturb the enemy, trap the enemy, expose the enemy’s whereabouts, warn the sect in time, and weaken the enemy to a certain extent!
Hiding in the trunk of a tree, Paper Effigy No. 3 with the ‘Earth’ character was wobbling. Its body expanded rapidly and transformed into a young and handsome immortal who was clad in a long robe.
His aura and appearance were completely different from Li Changshou.
At that moment, half of Li Changshou’s attention was on the paper Daoist. Using the spider webs that he had set up previously, he monitored the group of black shadows that were rus.h.i.+ng towards him from 200 kilometers away…
Li Changshou soon realized that there were dozens of figures traveling underground.
The figures followed behind a few great demons who could only burrow into the ground. Although they concealed their auras, their obscurity was far inferior to Earth Escape.
Has the perfected pangolin become smart?
However, Li Changshou had considered that point before.
Some of the poisonous arrays that he had set up were hidden rather deep below ground, and the large array foundations were also arranged diagonally…
“Eh? Something’s not right.”
In the darkness, Li Changshou frowned. Images overlapped in his heart, and he quickly organized them.
There is also a group of ambushers in the southwest!
The enemies have decided to split up!
However…
It doesn’t matter…
Li Changshou split his attention into two and multi-tasked to activate ‘Earth’ Paper Effigy No. 5.
Using the paper effigy, he activated a layer of poisonous arrays in the south-west direction and found a pool to hide in.
After carefully observing for a while, Li Changshou chuckled.
The current situation was indeed beyond his expectations. He had to admit that there was a certain element of luck involved…
He had used two of the three “‘sneak attack paths” that he had set up the Poison Arrays in!
The enemies are really warm and considerate. I’m afraid that his efforts will be wasted.
Soon, both of Li Changshou’s paper effigies sensed the pressure from a Golden Immortal.
There were two paths in the southwest and one in the north.
Three Golden Immortals?
Although Li Changshou had sensed that the Dao runes of the three Golden Immortals were a little strange, the suppression of the Golden Immortals was real.
Three Golden Immortals…
The situation is a little unpredictable. It is indeed not easy to deal with.
In the darkness, Li Changshou closed his eyes again and muttered in his heart…
‘Human’ Paper Daoist No.3, activate!
In the Pill Chamber of Little Qiong Peak, Li Changshou, who was in a daze while sitting in front of the Pill Furnace, trembled. His eyes gradually glistened.
He immediately shut down the array around the Little Qiong Peak and sent a voice transmission to Ling’e.
Ling’e, who was cultivating the Water Escape and Earth Escape on the surface of the lake, was momentarily stunned. Then, she jumped into the air and rushed towards the straw hut by the lake…
“Master! Senior had fainted in the Pill Chamber! Quickly go and take a look!”
Listening to Ling’e’s panicky shouting, Li Changshou’s attention was attracted by the enemies that were three thousand kilometers north-west.
The group of powerful enemies has entered the Poison Array…
They had been flying close to the ground and hiding their figures, but they had neglected the path ahead.
