While Taiyi Sect and Qiaoshou Sect were digging for earth veins in full swing, Shangguan Long Yan, the leader of Earth Fire Sect, was still hesitant.
At the beginning, the great elder of the Earth Fire Sect, Lie Yanzhenren, fully supported Shangguan Long Yan as the elder of the Earth Fire Sect. It was because Shangguan Long Yan was calm enough and acted thoughtfully.
Most of the monks of the Earth Fire Sect in the foundation-building period were affected by the cultivation techniques, and they also received huge life-and-death stimulation during the foundation-building process. All of them have bad tempers and get angry easily. Many of them are crazy and fearless of death. A few of them even have self-destructive tendencies.
As a rare sober and rational person, Shangguan Long Yan was entrusted with the important task of being the leader despite his mediocre cultivation among the monks in the foundation-building period of Earth Fire Sect.
But it is precisely because he is too rational that it is difficult to make decisions at critical moments.
Although he has been staying in the Earth Fire Sect, through the dispatched ears and eyes, he is still paying attention to the movements over Lin Quanguan.
The combined forces of Taiyi Sect and Qiaoshou Sect surrounded Lin Quanguan and did not start a direct attack. This was not unexpected.
Even if the two sects were slightly stronger than Lin Quanguan, they would still be unable to break through Lin Quanguan’s mountain-protecting formation. Naturally, they would not ask for trouble.
The two sides are now in a confrontation. This situation echoes Shangguan Long Yan’s wishes.
It would be best for them to continue the confrontation slowly like this. When Master Lieyan returns, it will naturally be up to Master Lieyan to decide how to deal with the situation in front of them.
As for the large-scale excavation carried out by the two sects’ coalition forces, Shangguan Long Yan also couldn’t understand it. Like Taoist Master Guang Hui, he believed that the two sects were trying to lure monk Lin Quanguan away from the protection of the mountain guard formation.
Since the situation at Lin Quanguan is stable and there is no danger of being breached for the time being, Shangguan Long Yan doesn’t have to make a decision in a hurry and can stay put for the time being.
After nearly a month of hard work, the excavation work was finally completed.
The Houtu God will draw several key nodes on the map, and it is necessary to set up magic circles on them.
After all the disciples of the two sects rested for two days and regained their strength, Meng Zhang ordered them to continue working.
A large amount of formation materials were sent to the front line. Under Wen Qiansuan’s personal supervision, several magic formations were set up one by one.
Houtu God General selected a location to set up the altar and began to open the altar.
Meng Zhang and others came to the outside of Linquan Mountain Viewing Gate to monitor what was going on inside while God General Houtu was doing his magic. Only Wen Qiansuan stayed there to assist Houtu God General in his practice.
After a while, there was first a thunderous bang, then several loud bangs in succession, and the entire land was shaken tremendously.
A strong earthquake suddenly struck, but the scope was not large, just near the mountain gate of Linquan Temple.
Several peaks in Linquan Temple shook violently, as if they were about to collapse completely.
The monks from both sects have been warned in advance and can still remain calm now.
But Lin Quanguan fell into chaos because of this sudden earthquake.
Fortunately, the earthquake did not last long. It only shook a few times and then completely subsided.
Under the severe scolding from the top management of Linquanguan, Linquanguan finally regained its inner calm.
Brother Lin Quanguan inspected the damage caused by the earthquake, especially checking whether the mountain protection formation was damaged in the earthquake just now.
The results of the inspection made everyone very satisfied. The mountain guarding formation remained motionless and unscathed. As for the damage to some buildings within the sect, it is not worth mentioning at all.
Meng Zhang and others were flying in the air, staring coldly at the mountain-protecting formation below.
The mountain-protecting formation is Lin Quanguan’s largest amulet at present. They must be paying attention to the situation of the mountain-protecting formation all the time.
When the spiritual veins stop transmitting spiritual energy to the mountain guarding formation, monk Lin Quanguan will soon be able to detect it.
Actually, before discovering something was wrong with the mountain-protecting formation, Brother Lin Quanguan had already noticed that something was wrong.
All the monks in Linquan Temple meditate and adjust their breath almost every day, absorbing spiritual energy into their bodies and refining it into their own true energy.
Soon after the earthquake, some monks began their daily homework and began to meditate.
After practicing for a while, many people feel that the spiritual energy on the mountain has become much thinner today. It takes more effort than usual to absorb enough spiritual energy.
At first everyone thought it was an accidental phenomenon, but then, almost every monk felt this way. And as time goes by, the spiritual energy becomes thinner and thinner.
At this time, Taoist priest Guang Hui was finally alarmed.
After careful investigation with several foundation-building monks in the sect, he found that the spiritual energy provided by the spiritual veins was decreasing day by day.
At this time, everyone became frightened.
The spiritual energy provided by Lin Quanguan’s second-level spiritual vein is not only necessary to maintain the operation of the mountain guarding formation, but also to be absorbed by all the monks in the mountain gate.
If something goes wrong with the spiritual veins, it will not be able to provide enough spiritual energy. Not to mention the mountain-protecting formation, the cultivation of all the monks in the mountain gate will be affected, and the consumed energy cannot be replenished in time.

Taoist Priest Guang Hui took Taoist Priest Guang Rui and several other close associates, and personally performed the Earth Escape Technique, escaping into the ground and escaping to the location of the underground spiritual veins.
The coverage area of Linquanguan’s mountain protection formation may not seem large, but it actually protects a three-dimensional space. The sky, the ground, and the underground are all within the protection range of the formation.
There are many monks proficient in earth escape in the endless sand sea. If a large formation does not take into account the protection of the underground, it will have fatal flaws.
The second-level spiritual veins of Linquan Temple are naturally within the protection range of the mountain protection formation.
After Taoist Priest Guanghui and others arrived at the location of the spiritual vein, they soon discovered that there was a big problem with the spiritual vein.
The spiritual veins have collapsed, and the spiritual energy is constantly flowing away. If this continues, all the spiritual energy in the spiritual veins will be lost within three or two days at most.
After all, Lin Quanguan’s background is not enough, and there is no high-end profession like Earth Master in the sect. Even in the entire Endless Sand Sea, only the Feihong Sect has earth masters, and their levels are relatively low.
Based on the current damage to the spiritual veins, it is difficult for ordinary low-level earth masters to effectively repair it.
Taoist Priest Guanghui’s face immediately darkened after he figured out the situation of the spiritual veins. He finally knew that the seemingly useless excavation carried out by the two sects’ coalition forces actually hit Lin Quanguan’s vitals.
Taoist Master Guang Hui regretted deeply. When the two sects first started digging, he should have stopped them and should not have allowed the enemy to achieve their goals without hindrance.
If Taoist Master Guang Hui had made the right decision at that time and sent out the foundation-building monks on the mountain to carry out harassing attacks and leave with one strike, he would definitely be able to interfere with or even interrupt the enemy’s excavation work.
But he was too cautious and took the wrong strategy of sitting back and watching.
