I picked up skill fragments in the demon world.

Chapter 84: Mist Growing in the Stone Wall
Zhang Chen felt that he had seen the truth. All the information was connected together to form a clear picture in his mind.

Probably, an earthquake occurred here who knows how many years ago. Even the tomb arranged by the ancient gods was still unable to withstand the power of heaven and earth. Not only was the True Dragon Tomb torn apart from the Emperor's Daughter Tomb, a crack appeared in the True Dragon Tomb, causing the dragon energy to leak out. The energy was absorbed by the earth veins, and even the Emperor's Daughter Tomb was torn apart.

The crack in front of us is the tear in the earth. It should lead directly to a tomb chamber in the tomb of the imperial daughter. The twelve-level objects shining inside should be the burial objects of the imperial daughter.

Because of the earthquake, countless powerful people came here to investigate, and the owner of the bones should have been the first to come here, or the first to notice the location of the mystery of the twelfth level. However, due to the Feng Shui formation or other reasons, he could only watch the mystery of the twelfth level right in front of him, but could not take it out.

So he came up with a plan, and opened up another stone chamber outside as a disguise. He used two extremely precious scrolls and the mystery of the Feng Shui formation to conceal the stone chamber inside.

Later, the Qingqiu clan came here to live in seclusion and regarded the painting of "White Fox Swallowing the Moon" engraved on the wall as a treasure.

But for some reason, the owner of the bones did not take out the mystery of the twelfth level before he died.

"That should be the case." Zhang Chen had a general idea in his mind and was secretly surprised. He never thought that he would inadvertently discover the location of the imperial daughter's tomb.

I thought the tomb of the emperor's daughter had disappeared with the changes of the world, but who knew it still existed, just blocked by a feng shui formation.

"The mystery of the twelfth level! I never thought that my Qingqiu Nannan would be able to come into contact with the mystery of the twelfth level in my lifetime." The voice of the ancestor Nannan was full of emotion.

Zhang Chen glanced at the vixen and said, "You're already dead, what are you talking about in your lifetime?"

Upon hearing this, the fox girl Nannan rolled her eyes at Zhang Chen, her eyes full of dissatisfaction: "What a bummer! Even though I'm dead, as long as you set me free, I can continue to reincarnate and possess other bodies. In eighteen years, I will be a good fox again."

"Go and take out the mystery of the twelfth level." Zhang Chen said.

The gap in the stone wall was only as wide as a palm, and was about a hundred meters away from him, but the range of his water control technique was only fifty meters, which meant that his idea of ​​using the water flow to roll it out was in vain.

The narrow gap is more than 100 meters long. Even if Zhang Chen had gunpowder, it would be extremely difficult to blast open a passage with it. Fortunately, the fox spirit can drill through the gap in front of him.

Upon hearing this, the fox fairy Nannan's eyes suddenly lit up, and without saying a word, she turned into a wisp of green smoke and slipped through the gap, trying to get closer to the mystery of the twelfth level.

Just as the fox fairy Nannan entered the crevice, he suddenly saw endless fog emerging out of thin air in the crevice of the stone. Zhang Chen saw the green smoke transformed by the fox fairy Nannan constantly colliding and moving back and forth in the crack, but it could not get close to the mystery at all.

It was as if the fog possessed a special magical power, causing the fox spirit to keep circling back and forth in the same place, but unable to get close to the secret room at all.

Zhang Chen saw the green smoke constantly colliding in the gap, and heard screams. He quickly used his skills, and saw the fox fairy girl in the mist disappear out of thin air, turning into a rune and appearing in Zhang Chen's palm. Then he saw the green smoke twisted and turned into a white fox girl, who stood beside Zhang Chen with a bruised face.

"Damn it! I was wondering why we would get such a benefit. It turns out it's the power of the Feng Shui formation. Thanks to you for pulling me out, otherwise I, the Fox Fairy Nannan, would be in trouble this time!" Fox Fairy Nannan was so angry that she cursed: "I was wondering why this guy is still sitting here since he has discovered the mystery of the twelfth level. Facing the obstruction of the Feng Shui formation, although he can see the treasure, he can't get close."

At this point, the fox fairy Nannan was afraid that Zhang Chen, a country bumpkin, didn't know what the power of Feng Shui was, so she explained: "The power of Feng Shui is actually an application of the power of the earth veins, or an application of the power of dragon energy and dragon veins. It contains the power of destiny, which is the nemesis of natural gods like us. It is also a means for mortals to trap and kill gods like us! There are some mortals whose intelligence is almost demonic. They have mastered the great way of Feng Shui. Although they are mortals, they should not be underestimated."

"A Feng Shui formation?" Zhang Chen looked at the mist in the gap and was a little confused for a moment: "A Feng Shui formation can actually restrain the power of the soul?"

"Of course! The Feng Shui formation is the magnetic field of heaven and earth. It is the most powerful to restrain the soul, but less powerful to restrain the body. However, the power of the top Feng Shui formation is so terrifying that even a twelfth-level god would retreat when encountering it. You humans have a type of people called Feng Shui masters. Or they can be called sorcerers. They are the best at playing with Feng Shui. Once they set up a Feng Shui formation, even a mortal body can kill a twelfth-level god."

“The Feng Shui formation before us is at least of the twelfth level. If I had a physical body, I might be able to try to break in. But now I am only in the form of a soul, and after entering the Feng Shui formation I can only let it be manipulated.” The vixen paced back and forth anxiously, looking even more anxious than Zhang Chen.

"Feng Shui?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Chen raised his torch and moved forward to the crevice in the stone wall. He looked at the mist and reached out his hand to touch it, but found that the mist seemed to be non-existent and could not be touched at all.

It was really strange that the fog was not water vapor, nor was it smoke, nor was it haze.

“In order to bury the emperor’s daughter, the god in the past changed all the landforms within a radius of 100 miles, so this Feng Shui formation must cover at least a hundred miles. The god used supreme means to gather all the power of the earth’s magnetic field within a hundred miles in one place. No wonder even a twelfth-level strongman was helpless.” Zhang Chen said to himself.

"Boy, we are in trouble!" The vixen turned and looked at Zhang Chen.

Zhang Chen stared at the gap and pondered. How could he not know that he was in trouble?
"What should we do now?" Zhang Chen moved his gaze away from the crack and looked at the vixen.

The fox spirit was so anxious that he kept scratching his head: "If it really doesn't work, I can only possess a mouse and use the mouse's body to get in, but I don't know if I can resist the invasion of the earth's magnetic force."

Zhang Chen was helpless at this point. Unless he prepared a large amount of gunpowder and blasted a passage through the hundred-meter-long bluestone gap, he could only watch helplessly.

"Go catch the mouse, and bring it back quickly!" Zhang Chen's eyes lit up. The vixen's words reminded him that he still had the skill to taming animals.

My beast taming skills can control an area of ​​500 meters. Even if calculated by radius, it should be 250 meters. The distance from here to the stone chamber should be enough.

The fox fairy Nannan did not resist Zhang Chen's instructions. After all, the fortune in the tomb was not only related to Zhang Chen, but also to the benefits of her, the fox fairy Nannan.

The fox fairy Nannan turned into smoke and left. Zhang Chen was standing in the stone chamber at this time, staring at the fog in the crack. He saw that the fog in the crack was slowly dissipating along the crack. In the blink of an eye, the fog had filled the entire stone chamber and enveloped Zhang Chen.

"Sure enough, the stone chamber is also within the coverage of the Feng Shui formation. Even though the fox clan can travel through the void, they can hardly perceive the fortune of this place." Zhang Chen stood in the fog without moving, with golden light flashing in his eyes. The fog in the stone chamber in front of him disappeared rapidly and was directly penetrated by the golden light in his eyes. The golden light in his eyes actually ignored the existence of the fog, and the entire stone chamber seemed to have no fog.

As Zhang Chen retracted the golden light in his eyes, the clear stone room in front of him suddenly became blurry, and countless mists appeared again. "My golden light can see through the mist and is not affected by the mist." Zhang Chen was secretly shocked. According to what the fox fairy Nannan said, the formation in front of him was at least a twelfth-level Feng Shui formation, but it could not deceive his perception. What level of power is his righteous light?

Zhang Chen stood quietly in the fog for a while. The Feng Shui formation seemed to be unaware of anything unusual. After losing the external stimulation, the fog slowly disappeared into the air.

Even the fog in the gap disappeared!

However, Zhang Chen still noticed something unusual. He looked at the stone wall of the secret room and finally realized that something was wrong with it. The stone wall seemed to come alive, breathing continuously. With each breath, a faint mist flowed out from the stone wall. However, the mist only flowed on the surface of the stone wall in a shallow layer, so weak that it was almost unnoticeable. In addition, it was dark here, and the color of the mist was the same as the stone wall of the secret room, so if you don't look closely, it's hard to notice the changes with your naked eyes.

"The Feng Shui formation is truly incredible. There is magical destiny between heaven and earth, as well as the magical power of dragon veins. This world is becoming more and more interesting!" Zhang Chen withdrew his gaze from the stone wall, stood there waiting, and at the same time looked into the gap, looking for a suitable blasting point.

If his own methods really couldn't take out the treasure inside, he could only go out and prepare a large amount of gunpowder, and then choose to explode!
Before he had to wait for long, the fox fairy Nannan caught two mice and ran in excitedly. Then she came to the gap and said to Zhang Chen, "Boy, you must be nicer to me in the future. Look how useful I am! Without me, even if the treasure is right in front of you, you will never be able to take it out."

After the little fox finished speaking, he looked at the gray mouse with disgust, and then threw a mouse directly to Zhang Chen: "You catch this mouse!"

Zhang Chen didn't dislike it. He hunted in the mountains all year round, so how could he dislike mice? After the mouse fell to the ground, he stomped on it with his hands and feet.

"Don't step on the mouse to death."

The fox fairy Nannan couldn't help but raise her eyebrows when she saw Zhang Chen's rough actions, her voice filled with helpless admonitions.

"I know what's going on." Zhang Chen said.

His body was reborn and he had precise control over the strength. If he wanted to step on a mouse, he would definitely step on it instead of crushing it to death on the ground.

The fox fairy Nannan glanced at Zhang Chen with deep doubt in her eyes, but she did not argue with Zhang Chen over this trivial matter. Instead, she placed the mouse directly in the crack. The next moment, her soul turned into a wisp of green smoke and drilled into the body of the mouse.

I saw the mouse struggling in pain, screaming miserably, twitching and rolling on the ground. After a few breaths, the mouse suddenly jumped up and rushed straight into the fog.

But the mouse didn't run far before fog appeared in the stone wall and trapped the mouse in the crevice. The mouse kept turning in circles but could not move forward at all.

After the mouse wandered in the mist for seven or eight minutes, the spirit of the girl in white suddenly emerged from the mouse's body and shouted in the mist: "Zhang Chen, save me!!!"

Then a rune flashed in Zhang Chen's palm, and the rune transformed into the appearance of a girl, standing beside Zhang Chen. At this time, her body was a little pale, and looked a little unreal.

"This damn Feng Shui formation is really unreasonable." The fox fairy Nannan looked at the mouse that kept turning around in the crack and cursed angrily. She was afraid that the mouse had fallen into an illusion and would not stop until it was exhausted to death.

"How does it feel?" Zhang Chen asked.

"I clearly feel like I'm moving forward, but I'm just going in circles. If it weren't for the fact that you and I have a mysterious connection and I can accurately sense the distance between us even in the Feng Shui formation, I'm afraid I would be trapped like that mouse. Even if I have the protection of a physical body, it's no different from the state of a soul." Fox Fairy Nannan said with lingering fear: "This is the first time I've encountered a Feng Shui formation. The power of this Feng Shui formation has greatly exceeded my expectations. It's incredible! I'm an eighth-level existence, but I have no resistance to the Feng Shui formation."

"How can human power contend with the power of heaven and earth? It's normal that you can't defeat the Feng Shui formation." Zhang Chen said slowly, and then said to the vixen: "Look at my tricks!"

"Look at your methods? Do you have a way to break the formation?" The vixen looked at Zhang Chen with a pair of eyes full of suspicion.

Zhang Chen looked at the expression on the vixen's face and suddenly had a vivid understanding of the word "suspicion".

Zhang Chen loosened his foot and activated the beast taming skill. The rat under his feet jumped out and drilled towards the gap.

"Fuck! You can control that mouse? Is this a beast taming ability???" The vixen cursed in shock, staring at Zhang Chen in horror, her eyes full of horror: "How many abilities do you have? It's rare for ordinary gods to have two abilities, but you have at least three. With your Light of Righteousness, Water Control, and Beast Taming skills, do you have any other abilities?"

The vixen's eyes were filled with fear, and she looked at Zhang Chen as if she was looking at a monster.

Zhang Chen ignored the fox spirit's surprise and turned his gaze towards the mouse crawling in the gap. However, the mouse controlled by Zhang Chen was even worse than the one controlled by the fox spirit. As soon as it entered the fog, it began to circle in place, circling around and around, as if it would not stop until it was exhausted to death.

"No way?" Zhang Chen frowned. He now realized that he seemed to have really encountered some trouble.

"This Feng Shui formation is too difficult to deal with, otherwise the owner of the bones would not have died without ever coming into contact with the mystery of the twelfth level." The fox fairy Nannan said dejectedly.

"It's a pity that my golden light can restrain the fog, but I can't get in!" Zhang Chen sighed beside him.

"You're not afraid of this fog?" The fox fairy Nannan's eyes widened as she heard something incredible. Her eyes were filled with horror. "What on earth is that golden light of yours? How can it be so amazing?"

Zhang Chen had no idea what his own golden light was, so he did not answer the fox fairy Nannan's words, but muttered to himself:
"Do I have to rely on gunpowder to blow up the passage?"

"Don't blow up this mountain, or we'll all be buried here." Fox Fairy Nannan whispered, "If you can tell me, since you know how to tame beasts, why don't we catch a dozen pangolins? Sooner or later, we'll be able to dig open the cave."

"That's a solution." Zhang Chen's eyes lit up.

"How dare you! I'm afraid you'll be trapped to death in the mountains, without the chance to go out and catch pangolins!" The fox fairy Nannan complained unhappily, turned around and wandered around in the stone chamber. After a moment, she suddenly exclaimed, "Come and see! There is actually a heavenly book here that has exhausted all the mysterious power!"
