Chapter 68: Formation
For some people, the City of Wrongful Death is a dead end, an absolute end. However, for Xiao Juezi and Feng Ling Lao Dao, it was absolutely a blessed place. The place where the two were transmitted to happened to be in the true vacuum zone recorded in the residual map, without encountering any formations or prohibitions, not even seeing a single demon.
According to the records in the picture, two people found no less than five ancient places in less than a day. Apart from the magic pills and medicine, they also obtained those long-lost ancient martial arts. Along the way, the two of them didn't know how many treasures they had obtained, even their storage bags were filled to the brim. This place was already the sixth ancient site they found.
"This is just the periphery, and yet an extraordinary treasure has appeared. I wonder what other treasures lie in the resting place of that old immortal from the Yellow Springs?" Xiaoyuezi's eyes gleamed as he put away the extraordinary treasure in his hand.
"It's likely that a spiritual artifact exists." Feng Ling Lao Dao also trembled as he spoke.
Compared with the magical instruments, the spiritual instruments belong to a higher level of existence.
In the outside world, everyone knows that above the law enforcement instruments, there are spiritual instruments and immortal instruments. Immortal instruments are not mentioned, those existences have almost become equivalent to legends. In comparison, spiritual instruments are closer to reality. In the Eastern Domain, there are four known spiritual instruments: Mo Tian Sect's Mo Tian Order, Lian Hua Valley's Nine-Grade Lian Hua, Tian Bao Pavilion's Tian Bao Mirror, and Hua Shen Gate's Hua Shen Pool.
The sect's spiritual instruments are basically all in the hands of the sect's Taishang elder, and very few people have seen them. As a disciple of Lianhuagu, Ding Yan has never seen the spiritual instrument of Lianhuagu.
"With these things in hand, let's hurry to that place as soon as possible. I have a feeling that something unexpected might happen." Xiao Zhezi said after putting away the top-grade artifact into his storage bag.
"All right, better late than never. After all, so many old monsters have come this time..." Feng Ling Lao Dao also agreed.
When the city of false death appeared, the two clearly saw several powerful auras rising into the sky and flying in. Those people were obviously strong figures who had passed the tribulation of thunder. For the two of them, the scattered immortals who had passed the tribulation of thunder were existences to be looked up to. Even those scattered immortals who had not passed the tribulation of thunder could kill them as easily as pinching an ant to death.
After the two men collected all the treasures inside the cave and left, about half a stick of incense later, countless cracks suddenly appeared on the wall in the dark corner. The falling rocks revealed a human-sized hole.
*gulp*
A rotten skull fell out of it, smashing to the ground, and the skull rolled far away... After stopping, the skull stuck to the ground and swayed eerily for a moment. A faint glow flashed in the deep eye sockets, and then the skull's pale white bony claws trembled slightly...
......
In the dimly lit sky and earth, Ding Yan slowly opened his eyes.
I only felt a dullness in my mind, as if I had been struck by something heavy, and even the sea of consciousness was slightly shaken. Fortunately, my soul did not suffer any injury, and after adjusting my breath for a while, my eyes gradually began to recover their sight.
"What... is this place?" Ding Yan shook his head, trying hard to recall what had happened before.
"Oh, that little blade of grass!"
A moment later, Ding Yan's eyes flashed and he suddenly remembered that he was in a withered forest where he had encountered an empty space. On the empty space grew a green small grass, and it was after encountering that small grass that he fainted.
"It seems like I'm trapped." Ding Yan's thoughts finally recovered.
He began to observe his surroundings, and after a while, Ding Yan revealed a hint of bitterness on his face.
"An ancestral-level formation, I've actually encountered it......"
The way of formations is profound and unfathomable.
Ordinary formations can only trap people and disturb the minds of those trapped. This type of formation is called a primary formation, also known as an entry-level formation.
At a higher level, it is to use the power of heaven and earth, form wind, rain, thunder and lightning phenomena in the array, so as to achieve the purpose of borrowing force to kill people. This kind of array method is called small success array method.
At an even higher level, it is possible to conjure up illusory demonic beasts within the formation, entangling and killing enemies, reaching this level will earn one the title of Great Accomplishment Formation Master.
As for the formation method one level higher than this, it is the kind in front of us now, which has broken free from the constraints of ordinary formations and become a master-level formation that creates its own space. Once trapped inside, it's as if you've entered another world. Ordinary people can't break through it. In Ding Yan's understanding of past lives, only one person in the entire cultivation world had reached this level.
Ding Yan put aside his thoughts and began to look for a way out.
This is a grayish space.
However, there was not nothing inside. At least where Ding Yan was now, there was a tatami mat and a square table. The square table and the tatami mat were both illusory objects created by the world of arrays, not real objects. This point Ding Yan had noticed as soon as he woke up.
"Turning the virtual into reality and condensing it into a square table, this formation technique is indeed profound and unfathomable." Ding's words were filled with emotion.
In his previous life, Ding Yan was also involved in formation techniques. Although he couldn't be considered an expert, he wasn't a complete outsider either, and had some discerning eye for it.
After accumulating for thousands of years, many things will come into contact with some, the formation method is the same, and the alchemy equipment refining is also the same. After observing for a long time, Ding Yan finally confirmed that with his current formation method strength, it is absolutely impossible to walk out of this formation space.
"I don't believe it, a single formation can trap me to death." Ding Yan sat down and began to calculate the trajectory of the formation.
He was originally a man of firm will, and his experiences in past lives made him even more fearless of the loneliness of cultivation.
Besides, being trapped isn't necessarily a bad thing.
Master-level formations aren't something you can see just anywhere.
After calming down, Ding Yan began to slowly calculate the mysteries of the formation space. Fortunately, in his previous life, he had come into contact with formations before, so he wasn't completely aimless. Now that he was calculating, although the speed was very slow, the direction was correct.
Ding Yan first calculated was the square table in front of him.
After sinking into the world of Xin Shen, the square table in Ding Yan's eyes became a group of heavenly powers bound by arrays. The world next to him also turned into a group of rotating air masses, but in some places that the naked eye could not see, there were jumping characters.
These runes are the foundation of array magic.
The means of arranging an array, the number is unclear, the most well-known are: Jin Zhen, Fu Zhen, Wu Zhen and the deepest Hun Zhen. At first, when Ding Yan crossed the mortal tribulation, the defensive array he set up was a kind of Wu Zhen. The array flag that can be purchased in the auction hall is actually also a kind of Wu Zhen. Simply put, Wu Zhen is to arrange an array with tangible objects, and people who use this method to arrange arrays generally have an array level at the entry level or small success level.
