What do you mean by saying that the corpses I sew are all ominous creatures?

I looked at him and continued, "You stay on the perimeter and use your methods to lead the brothers in the action team to set up the formation."

If there really is a malevolent formation inside the City God Temple, even if you can't break it, I believe that with your expertise in formations, you will definitely be able to influence it to some extent.

Even if it reduces the opponent's home advantage by 10% or 20%, it's a deal worth making!

After I finished speaking, I quietly looked at Lu Yan and Li Qing, waiting for their decision.

The air in the garage seemed to be still for a few seconds.

Lu Yan stared at the map, quickly calculating the feasibility of my suggestion in her mind.

She is a decisive person, but by no means a rigid dogmatist.

She was well aware that my analysis was based entirely on the objective fact that the two sides were vastly different in strength.

"Old Chen is right."

Li Qing was the first to break the silence.

He stuffed the five-emperor coins in his hand into his pocket, a glint of excitement flashing in his eyes.

"The purpose of the 'gathering yin funnel' layout created by the other party is to gather yin energy for the City God Temple."

If I set up several Yin-blocking formations at key points on the periphery, it might slow down the flow of Yin energy towards the City God Temple.

This is tantamount to seizing their lifeline!

Li Qing glanced at the members of the action team and continued:

"Moreover, with my command and the action team's cooperation, this simple formation can be several times more efficient."

Lu Yan took a deep breath, a resolute look flashing across her pale face.

"Okay, let's do as Chen Yang says."

She raised her head, her gaze turning cold and resolute once more.

Lu Yan strode to the center of the garage, clapped her hands, and signaled everyone to be quiet.

"All personnel, adjust tactics!"

Lu Yan's clear and powerful voice echoed in the underground parking garage: "All members of the Special Operations Team, step forward!"

Prepare to join me on a frontal assault mission.

Target: The main hall of the City God Temple!

Without hesitation, Zhao Tie and several other special operations team members immediately stepped forward, their eyes resolute.

"The entire action team."

Lu Yan's gaze swept over the remaining people.

"Your command is now temporarily transferred to Li Qing, the Feng Shui consultant specially appointed by the Folklore Bureau."

Your mission is to spare no effort to cooperate with Advisor Li in setting up a formation around the City God Temple and clearing away the wandering evil spirits.

And be ready to support the assault team at any time.

The team members were taken aback for a moment, but their excellent discipline allowed them to quickly react, responding in unison, "Yes, sir!"

Lu Yan didn't waste any more words.

She took a black magnetic card out of her pocket and casually tossed it to Li Qing, who was standing to the side.

"This is the highest-level access card for the underground warehouse of the Jiangcheng Branch."

Lu Yan spoke very quickly.

"Apart from the few forbidden items sealed in cabinet number one, you can choose anything else you like."

The array pillars, crafted from top-grade cinnabar and century-old lightning-struck wood, were once offered by the Zhengyi sect of Longhu Mountain.

Move as much as you can if you think you'll need it.

I have only one request: keep the area outside the City God Temple firmly sealed off.

Li Qingsuo reached out and caught the black card, twirling it nimbly between his fingers, a slightly roguish smile playing on his lips.

"Alright, Director Lu is great."

With that in mind, even if I have to empty this entire underground warehouse today, I won't hesitate.

Li Qing stuffed the black card into his pocket and turned to look at me.

"Old Chen, you just have fun inside. I'll cover for you outside."

"You be careful too, Li Qing."

I gave a brief instruction, not in a loud voice.

"Don't just focus on setting up formations and cut off your own escape route."

Although the outside is not the eye of the storm, the number of scattered evil creatures attracted by the earth's ley lines is estimated to be quite large.

"Your body can't withstand those things tearing you apart."

Li Qing waved his hand: "Don't worry, Lao Chen."

Although I'm not good at hand-to-hand combat, when it comes to finding auspicious burial sites and strategic formations, I've never been afraid of anyone in Jiangcheng.

Besides, aren't there so many brothers in the action team protecting me with real weapons?

Li Qing waved his hand, turned around, and led several members of the action team quickly toward the Folklore Bureau warehouse.

Not long after, I saw Li Qing directing his team members to push out several flatbed carts.

The vehicle was piled high with various objects that emitted strong magical energy fluctuations.

Not only are there boxes of high-purity cinnabar and bundles of century-old peach wood stakes, but there are also several Bagua mirrors that look very old and several sets of specially made ink lines.

The most outrageous thing is that Li Qing was also holding a bronze incense burner that was more than half a meter tall.

Judging from the patina and the subtle glow flowing on it, it's probably one of the most treasured items from the Folklore Bureau.

"With this kind of setup, anyone who didn't know better would think you were going to Longhu Mountain to perform a ritual."

I watched him carefully place the bronze incense burner into the trunk of the SUV and made a joke.

Li Qing dusted off his hands and said nonchalantly, "Old Chen, you just don't understand."

This is called being prepared for any eventuality.

The City God Temple is now a giant funnel, with all the city's yin energy pouring into it.

"How can I possibly cut off those bastards' lifeline without heavy firepower?"

As he spoke, he patted the car door and shouted to the members of the action team:

"Brothers, hurry up and load the truck! Let's get to work!"

Ten minutes later, all supplies and personnel were ready.

The garage's explosion-proof door slowly rose, accompanied by a dull mechanical grinding sound, and a cold wind mixed with rain and the smell of earth rushed in from outside.

"Set off."

Lu Yan sat in the passenger seat of the first command vehicle and issued instructions into the communication microphone.

The roar of the engine instantly shattered the deathly silence of the night.

I sat in the lead car with Lu Yan, Zhao Tie, and several other members of the special operations team.

Li Qing personally oversaw the operation from the second supply truck, which was fully loaded with provisions, and led the action team to follow closely behind.

The entire convoy, like a long black snake, sped out of the underground base and plunged into the deep rainy night of Jiangcheng.

At 2:45 a.m., Jiangcheng seemed to have become a dead city.

The streetlights that should have been on all night were now all turned off, and the familiar shop signs were hidden in the darkness.

Looking around, apart from the few beams of light that our convoy's glaring high beams tore through the rain, all around was an impenetrable darkness.

Within this pure darkness lurks an unsettling restlessness.

I sat quietly in the back row by the window, gazing out the window.

Through the hazy mist, I could clearly see that in those dark corners where no light shone, there were faint, distorted shadows lingering.

Those were some insignificant wandering spirits left over from the previous "Night Parade of One Hundred Demons".

They were drawn by the immense yin energy emanating from the direction of the City God Temple and were instinctively converging in that direction.
