Master, you go first!

Faced with the enemy's provocation, Gu Jiu couldn't help but take action, but was stopped by Su Jin.

Su Jin had some concerns. At least three of the opponents were in the late Jindan stage, and the others were in the middle Jindan stage. If a real fight broke out, the five of them would not be at an advantage.

Gu Jiu also knew that it was basically impossible to deal with the eight people on the opposite side without using the power of the soul, but he was angry and wanted to beat up the leader.

"The people on the opposite side are from the Bishui Sect, and their cultivation is quite high. Let's go, otherwise we will be at a disadvantage if we fight." Su Jin whispered to Gu Jiu.

The leading monk of the Bishui Sect heard Su Jin's words and laughed even more arrogantly, looking like he deserved a beating.

"You even know about our sect. It seems that the Chiyang Sect is nothing special."

Gu Jiu felt something strange in these words. It seemed that this sect had some entanglement with the Chiyang Immortal Sect. Judging from the appearance of this man, it seemed that he was not only coming for the spirit gathering formation, but also for Su Jin and the others.

However, this guy deserves a beating, and Gu Jiu doesn't want to spoil him. If he can't kill him, he will at least make him sick to death.

Gu Jiu had already considered this when he was about to take action. At this moment, the other party was mocking several people here, and he was not paying much attention. Especially after Su Jin said that he wanted to leave, the other party seemed to be watching a joke.

Ignoring Su Jin's dissuasion, Gu Jiu quietly took out three small formation plates from behind his back. While the man from the Bishui Sect was still mocking and laughing, light appeared under his feet and he disappeared from the spot.

When the people from the Bishui Sect saw this, their laughter stopped abruptly, and since they couldn't see anyone, they all took up defensive postures.

However, Gu Jiu did not activate the attack formation, but instantly formed a four-sided trap formation that he often used. With his current strength, this formation could withstand the attack of a Jindan cultivator for a while.

This was enough. When Gu Jiu reappeared, the four-sided trapping formation had already trapped all the people from the Bishui Sect inside. Golden barriers appeared on all four sides, like a cube, and the top was also sealed.

The monks of Bishui Sect only then realized that it was not an attack formation, and it was activated so quickly that they did not dodge in advance and are now all trapped.

The leader was so angry that he screamed, he couldn't believe that the other party dared to attack first when he was obviously at a disadvantage in cultivation. He raised his hand and cast a spell to attack the barrier, shouting to others to break the formation together.

This formation cannot completely trap the opponent, but the time it can trap is enough for Gu Jiu to do many things. He threw the three formation plates in his hand up, maintaining the formation with one hand and controlling the formation plates with the other.

Soon, three small array plates began to rotate in the air, flying in three directions with the monks of the Bishui Sect as the center.

Then the array disk was activated, and three circular barriers slowly condensed and took shape with the array disk as the center. They were overlapped and staggered, so that the monks of the Bishui Sect were exactly where the three circular barriers could be overlapped.

This is another superposition formation that Gu Jiu has researched for actual combat. Because of the strength problem, the preparation time of a powerful formation is too long, and it is difficult to use it in a battlefield that changes in an instant. In the past, when Gu Jiu was tinkering with small things, he would make some improved small formations when he had inspiration.

The duration of time that this three-layered formation can trap people is much longer than the formation condensed by Gu Jiu using the formation steps, and the difficulty of breaking the formation is at least several times higher.

The idea was very clear. The formation was fast, but the formation was weak. The formation using the formation plate and spirit stone was strong, but it took time. Gu Jiu combined the two methods and used the superimposed formation of the three formation plates.

Seeing the formation taking shape, Gu Jiu's four-sided trap array was almost destroyed. But he was not worried. The next three arrays would be superimposed on each other, which would take them a long time to break. It would take them half a day to break out, and they would need enough pills to support their spiritual power consumption.

"Don't worry about them, let's continue." Gu Jiu turned around and walked back, continuing to break the defensive formation outside the Spirit Gathering Array.

Senior Sister Su Jin and her brothers watched Gu Jiu trap eight people on the opposite side with just one move. They were very surprised. It seemed that the formation master was really powerful. However, they didn't know that Gu Jiu was quite different from ordinary formation masters.

Gu Jiu continued with his actions. He had already thought about what to do next. He let these people go in and practice first, which was considered as completing what he promised to Su Yunran.

After a while, the defensive formation outside the spirit gathering formation was broken by Gu Jiu, and the outer circle of formation patterns on the ground gradually dimmed and finally disappeared.

This time, Gu Jiu directly went to the extent of canceling the formation instead of simply breaking a hole. In that case, the defensive formation would heal, and he would have to break it again when he came out, which was too troublesome.

"Okay, you guys go in and practice, and leave the outside to me." Gu Jiu said to a few people.

"Is it okay? What if they break your trap? How will you deal with so many people?" Su Jin was a little worried.

"Haha, it's a small problem. At least it's enough to give them a hard time. Come in quickly. I still need to set up our own defense formation." Gu Jiu asked them to go in quickly.

Seeing that Gu Jiu was confident, Su Jin led his fellow disciples into the spirit gathering array to practice. Most of the spiritual energy here was fire, which was of great help to those of them with fire spiritual roots.

After several people entered the formation, Gu Jiu rummaged through the storage ring again, preparing to make his own defensive formation, the one he had used in Hu Canglin before, a larger one that could cover the five of them.

This formation cannot be forcibly broken by the Jindan stage, but it can resist the Yuanying stage, but it consumes some spirit stones, and the spirit stones used are of high quality. Gu Jiu loaded the formation plate with spirit stones and threw it into the middle of the spirit gathering formation. He placed other formation materials in the six directions outside and activated the defense formation.

He himself did not enter the spirit gathering formation to practice, which made Su Jin a little confused. Wouldn't it be a waste if he didn't practice with such a good opportunity?

When Gu Jiu was creating a new defensive formation, Su Jin did not enter into meditation to practice. She asked,

"Why don't you come in and practice? This opportunity is rare."

"No, I still want to go beat someone up." Gu Jiu said with a smile, "Is this Bishui Sect related to your Chiyang Xian Sect?"

"Well, their sect is pretty strong. They have always wanted to replace our sect and take the position of the Immortal Sect. However, overall they are still a little bit weaker than us. They can be regarded as the second largest sect in Jinyang." Su Jin explained.

"Interesting, they should be mostly water-based. Does this count as water and fire being incompatible?"

"more or less."

"Alright. I promised your master that I would let you practice well here, so hurry up and don't waste time."

Gu Jiu urged her to practice quickly, and turned around and walked towards the group of Bishui Sect monks.

Looking at Gu Jiu's back, Su Jin was still confused. She couldn't figure out what kind of person he was. He seemed powerful and special, and different from all the cultivators she had met. And when she thought about the quarrel with the cultivator from the Bishui Sect, her heart started beating wildly.

At this time, Gu Jiu had already walked in front of the leading monk of the Bishui Sect. It was his turn to taunt him across the barrier of the trap.

"Hey, you're pretty capable, come out and beat me up, what do you think, come out?

What? Can't get out? My formation is called the Turtle Trapping Formation, which is specially designed to trap turtles. It suits you very well. You are indeed a turtle."

His look was as despicable as it could be. Su Jin, who was about to enter into meditation behind him, was amused by his action and couldn't help laughing.

While mocking the man, Gu Jiu was still searching for something in front of him, all of which were some strange array plates. He muttered to himself,

"What should I use to beat you? Sword energy, spirit needles, lightning, or poison gas? How about you choose one? If that's not enough, I have many strange little formations."
