Chapter 207 Sets Out, The Next Stronghold
Gu Feng concluded that Lu Yu wouldn’t be able to break in because of the terrain. There was only one entrance here, which significantly increased their chances of defending their base.
Secondly, they had been cultivating here for many years and had already familiarized themselves with the surrounding environment. Compared to Lu Yu, they had a natural advantage.
Moreover, they could also set up an array formation and use it to prevent Lu Yu from entering.
No matter how they analyzed it, they did not think they would lose.
“As long as we work together to set up some array formations, Lu Yu won’t be able to enter our place!”
Gu Feng said with certainty.
The other people were suddenly confident since the captain had said so.
“That’s right. So what if he is strong? We must let him know what it means to be strong but still powerless!”
“Our formation can definitely stop this guy!”
“By the way, boss, can we be sure his next target will be us?”
Gu Feng paused momentarily and explained, “He first took down the Weapon Refining Club’s mine. His second target was the Pharmaceutical Club’s stronghold.”
“The nearest large stronghold to the Weapon Refining Club’s mine is the herb garden.”
“So, I think Lu Yu took down the mine first and attacked the herb garden due to its being the closest one. I can see that he is very confident in his strength.”
A club member next to him nodded, “It seems that his next target should be us. The stronghold closest to the Pharmaceutical Club’s herb garden is ours.”
Gu Feng nodded, “That’s right. That’s why I called all of you here. We need to set up layers of array formations overnight, preparing to stop Lu Yu’s attack!”
Hearing this, they nodded heavily.
“Alright, let’s act now. If that kid dares to come here tomorrow, we’ll let him know what it means to be indestructible!”
“It’s not the first time we’ve resisted an outsider’s invasion. A mere freshman is dreaming if he wants to break through our stronghold!”
“That’s right. Everyone, work harder and set up a few more layers of array formations. We can’t let that guy breakthrough!”
Soon, everyone began to move toward the south mountain pass and set up defenses.
At that moment, Gu Feng stood in the middle of the square. He narrowed his eyes and pondered for a moment.
In the end, he took out his phone and sent a message to the club’s higher-ups asking for help.
He was not too confident about their defenses.
Although he had successfully convinced the others, making them think they would win.
However, Gu Feng was a little anxious as he knew the high risk this time. They had set up layers of defense, but he wasn’t entirely sure they would be able to defend against Lu Yu.
Sending a message asking for help was definitely a wise move.
Regardless of whether Lu Yu could break through their defenses or not, as long as the reinforcements arrived, they could coordinate from the inside to the outside and surround Lu Yu, leaving him with no way to escape.
After sending the message, he also stretched out his hands and released his mana, starting to set up his array formation…
Very soon, the following day arrived.
Lu Yu woke up in the wild forest herb garden and began to wash up.
Outside the room, the members of the Featherwing Club had already gathered and lined up.
Lu Yu walked out and looked at everyone, with Yun Zirou and Su Qing standing in front of the team.
“Today will be the first day you officially take over this herb garden. Work hard.”
“Next, I’m going to take down the Array Formation Club’s stronghold. Ten of you will follow me. Once I take down the stronghold, we will occupy it!”
After Lu Yu finished speaking, the members under him all volunteered.
“President, I want to go with you. Let me contribute!”
“Boss, I want to follow you to conquer the world. What’s the point of growing herbs here?”
“Boss, I want to go too. Bring me along!”
They all wanted to follow Lu Yu to conquer the stronghold. Not only would they be able to get some benefits, but the most important thing was that they could see Lu Yu’s battle and see Lu Yu fighting in person. It was an excellent opportunity for them to learn.
Lu Yu looked at them and chose a few people who had a strong desire to fight.
He knew that these battle-hungry members were not suitable for such leisure work. They liked to run around and work their bodies.
“Okay, the few of you then. You guys form a small team with Yun Zirou as the leader and Su Qing as the vice-leader. You guys just need to follow behind me.”
“Next, it will be like taking down this herb garden. I will take care of the strong enemies while you guys take over the stronghold and collect whatever you can for the club. Do you understand?”
“Understood!!”
Everyone shouted. They were all very excited.
If Lu Yu weren’t here, they would have been scared out of their wits to attack such a stronghold.
Lu Yu took the lead and set off.
After the team was disbanded, the remaining people began a new round of sowing.
Lu Yu walked quickly through the jungle after leaving the herb garden.
Every time he walked a certain distance, Lu Yu would glance at the map, afraid that he had taken the wrong path.
This base of the Array Formation Club was inconspicuous and secretive in these mountains.
Lu Yu did not know how long he had been walking. His club members, who had been following behind him, were now left behind and had disappeared without a trace.
In the grass, Lu Yu vaguely saw a stone tablet standing there.
Lu Yu quickly went over and stood beside the stone tablet.
There were three words carved on the stone tablet – Spirit Gathering Valley.
This was the name the Array Formation Club had given to this group of mountains. It meant that this was their private territory.
However, Lu Yu did not bother himself with this stone tablet. This treasure land was not something that they could occupy just because they decided to!
Finding this stone tablet also had its benefits. It proved that Lu Yu was in the right direction and had smoothly arrived at the array mages’ stronghold.
After Lu Yu walked past the stone tablet, he realized that a small path had appeared before him.
This was a small path that seemed frequently used. The ground was bare, and the soil was hard. It was completely different from the soft grass beside it.
Lu Yu continued walking forward. As long as he followed this path, he would be able to arrive at the Array Formation Club’s stronghold quickly!
This path was used frequently, but not only by the members of the Array Formation Club.
After they occupied this treasure ground, they would often open their cultivation quotas, allowing others to have the opportunity to enter this place to cultivate.
This was the most considerable portion of their income. Typically, this stronghold with just abundant spiritual energy wouldn’t have any profits.
Only after countless people passed by did this trekking path come into being.
This also made it convenient for Lu Yu to arrive smoothly at the Array Formation Club’s stronghold.
The further he went, the more uphill the path became. Both sides became narrower and less spacious.
It was as if Lu Yu was sandwiched between two mountains at that moment.
He continued to move forward when suddenly, there was a plop.
As he was walking forward, Lu Yu’s forehead bumped into something.
But when he raised his head, he realized there was nothing in front of him.
He stretched his hand forward and began to touch around. To his surprise, he realized that there was a completely invisible barrier in front of him, blocking Lu Yu!
