A devil's self-redemption

Luo Lai listened to their questions and speculations, and was very curious. However, he had little experience and could not express his opinions, so he could only sit on the sidelines.

He Xiong thought for a moment and put forward a more reliable possibility: "I have an idea, I don't know if it is right or not. It may be because I have not taken life-extending products. You also know that my strength is the lowest among the Celestial Realm. , coupled with bad luck, I have missed the life-extending treasure several times. So I have never taken it."

Ge Qing's eyes widened: "Yes, I also agree with what He Xiong said. Among us, I have taken the most life-extending drugs and treasures, and the life span increased this time is also the shortest."

Then many people reported how many life-extending medicines and treasures they had taken in the past, and compared them with the increased life span this time, they all agreed with He Xiong's point of view.

Finally, Ge Qing said: "This time you are able to extend your lifespan before dying, thanks to Luo Xiaozi. Let's thank you here in advance. As for what we do after we go out, it all depends on our hearts."

After finishing speaking, he straightened his clothes, bowed his hands to Luo Lai and said, "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Luo!"

Others followed suit. Even Zhu Yan, who had never been very serious, saluted Luo Lai seriously: "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Luo!"

How dare Luo Lai accept their great gift! Regardless of their status outside, these people are worthy of his respect just because they have a lifespan of several thousand years and the virtue of risking their lives for human monks!

He jumped up and away from everyone's salutes, and then said in a panic: "Seniors, please don't do this. Isn't this shortening the life of the juniors? Don't take it seriously, don't take it seriously!"

Ge Qing straightened up, smiled and said to the bewildered Luo Lai: "You are a good boy! Hahaha!"

Everyone else started laughing too!

Luo Lai looked at the group of old guys who were laughing away at Shen Ke, and he also started to giggle.

After everyone regained their composure, Ge Qing continued: "Everyone, please gather your spirits. Don't forget why we came to this formation this time. It's better to explore it!"

Guo Hong nodded, pointed to the closed palace and said, "There should be something hidden here. Let's go in and take a look!"

The group of people came to the door of the main hall. Ge Qing waved his hand, and a strong wind blew towards the door. When the strong wind stopped, the door was opened, revealing the dark hall!

For unknown reasons, neither Luo Lai nor Ge Qing could clearly see the scene inside, which was very abnormal for monks who could see at night.

Luo Lai's expression changed, and he waved his hand and threw a spear with a tracking mark into the hall.

The moment the spear entered the hall, he no longer felt the presence of the mark.

"Array within array!" Luo Lai said with certainty!

"Is there a separate space inside?" Ge Qing asked.

Luo Lai nodded and said: "These powerful formation masters all seem to like matryoshka dolls. They are doing matryoshka dolls one after another. It's so annoying!"

"How is it? Are you sure?"

Luo Lai looked at Ge Qing in surprise: "Senior Ge, what kind of illusion makes you think I can do it?"

Ge Qing was stunned by Luo Lai's question, and then he realized, yes, he had taken it for granted. Since this kid rescued them, and also single-handedly killed Qianli, who was at the peak of Huiyang realm, he asked him to take Luo Lai. Become a Qianyuan realm monk.

You know, most of these old guys are still in the Qianyuan realm!

He couldn't help but look at Luo Lai again, and suddenly felt that this guy might actually be able to break the formation.

So he said: "If you can break it, break it quickly. We also need to spread the news that the kidneys of high-level sea monsters can extend life!"

Luo Lai took out a fusiform magic weapon, smiled strangely at Ge Qing and said, "We'll see if it can go out!"

The magic weapon Luo Lai took out was the formation-breaking shuttle. This formation-breaking shuttle could break all the formations that were not composed of the Ancestral script. Even if the Ancestral script formation was mixed with a little bit of this world's formation, it would be destroyed. Break open.

He mobilized his spiritual power, and a dazzling light flashed, and the formation-breaking shuttle floated automatically, then turned into a person as tall as a person, plunged into the ground, and most of his body was submerged into the ground.

Then... there was a buzz, and the formation-breaking shuttle was ejected from the ground!

Popped out?

The formation-breaking shuttle that was ejected from the ground buzzed for a while, expressing its grievances like a bullied child!

Luo Lai's face was stiff, he gently comforted the shuttle, and then put it away.

A group of old guys looked at Luo Lai as if they were looking at clowns, but Luo Lai could only smile awkwardly: "Haha! I said you got it wrong, do you believe it?"

The old guys obviously didn't believe it. They moved their eyes away from Luo Lai and began to think about what to do next.

After Luo Lai escaped the scrutiny of the old guys, he wandered around the hall.

This hall is obviously a formation, and whether it is the large formation outside or the formation within the formation, they are all composed of the Ancestral Wen formation. This makes Luo Lai certain that the owner of this formation is a nerd, and no one can compare with it. Nerds know better how to use the Ancestral Wen formation, and only nerds can lay out such a complex and perfect Ancestral Wen formation.

At the same time, he began to try to crack the formation. Whether it was an ordinary formation or a formation composed of ancestral texts, there would be a formation node. As long as this node was found, it would be easy to crack the formation.

But no matter how he searched, he still couldn't find the formation node.

There is no other way. It seems that the only option is to enter the main hall and search from inside.

He looked at Ge Qing who had decided to go in and said: "Senior Ge, let's go in together. The formation nodes here can only be found inside!"

"Are you sure?" Ge Qing asked suspiciously.

Luo Lai nodded. At this moment, these old guys have successfully extended their lives. They no longer act impulsively as before, and they have become step-by-step and steady again.

Ge Qing, Zhu Yan, He Xiong and Guo Hong were the first to go in. If there was any danger, try to eliminate it. A quarter of an hour later, Luo Lai and the remaining eight Qianyuan Realm monks entered.

Ge Qing looked at Luo Lai and said: "Among us, you have the greatest chance of survival, so don't be impulsive. We old guys have lived long enough. You should leave when you should!"

Luo Lai looked at Ge Qing in surprise, wondering why he said these words.

Just listen to Ge Qing continue to say: "After your shuttle failed to break the formation just now, I saw that you were not very frustrated, but showed a trace of joy. No matter what other methods you have, I still want to remind you In a word, the formations here are different from those in the past. Some of us still know a little bit about the formations, but we don’t see any traces of the formations. It’s just like it was made by nature, so you have to be careful!”

After saying that, without waiting for Luo Lai's reaction, he led Zhu Yan and the others into the hall.

The remaining people stood guard at the entrance of the hall, waiting quietly for a quarter of an hour to pass.

Luo Lai digested Ge Qing's words. The failure to break the formation shuttle just now made him realize that this was a formation arranged by a nerd using the ancestral language. As far as he knew, in the current world of cultivation, he was the only one who could break this formation, and he inadvertently showed a hint of joy.

Unexpectedly, the old fox caught him in his fleeting joy. As expected of an old guy who has lived for thousands of years, doesn’t he have a little bit of presbyopia?

A quarter of an hour passed quickly, and eight monks at the top of the Qianyuan Realm entered the hall one after another, each holding his own magical weapon in his hand. Luo Lai was the last one to take the last step to enter the entrance of the hall.

In just a flash, Luo Lai appeared in the hall, as if he had really walked into the hall from outside.

The eight Qianyuan Realm monks around them were each on alert, while Ge Qing and others who had come in earlier were looking around in the hall.

Seeing that there was no battle, Luo Lai breathed a sigh of relief, but he was a little confused. Logically speaking, this formation was arranged by a nerd to kill people, but apart from the ten thousand years of coldness, he had not encountered any danger.

The formation within the formation is the most important part of a large formation. The lethality is absolutely huge, but the four of Ge Qing have been in for a quarter of an hour and still haven't been attacked, which is obviously unreasonable.

But since that's what happened, Luo Lai could only prepare.

He reminded: "Seniors, be careful!"

Ge Qing, who was checking the condition of the main hall, asked: "Boy Luo, what did you find?"

Luo Lai shook his head, saying no, and then began to walk towards the wall of the hall.

There are many murals on the walls. They are very old and look quite mottled. But Luo Lai knows that this is the state of the formation. Not to mention eight thousand years, even eighty thousand years later, as long as the formation exists, the murals will still be there. This is what it looks like now.

These murals look quite strange. The people in the murals are obviously dressed differently than they are now, and all of them are grinning, showing a ferocious appearance.

However, Luo Lai did not detect the slightest evil breath from these murals, just like the dead wolves, but they were not as evil as they were when they were alive.

There are four people on the first mural, one big and three small.

It’s not that there is one adult and three children inside, but one is particularly huge, and the three little figures only reach the knees of the person in the front.

Although his face was ferocious, it was extremely stiff and made people unable to be frightened.

The second picture is a bit interesting. There are two men and two women, the same size. Their faces are not necessarily ferocious, but they are still very stiff and do not look like normal humans.

When Luo Lai wanted to see the third picture, he heard a scream: "Where did Chen Zhixing go?"

Luo Lai quickly looked at the person who spoke. The person's face was panicked and a little at a loss.

Ge Qing instantly ducked to the panicked monk and asked in a deep voice: "Calm down! Tell me! What's going on?"

The monk finally regained his composure after being called out by Ge Qing, but there was still a trace of panic on his face.

"Daoyou Chen and I have been walking together since we entered the main hall. Just now, the two of us were looking at a mural. When I was looking at it, I suddenly felt a little dazed. The people in the mural seemed to be coming out. I suddenly woke up. , but Fellow Daoist Chen beside me has disappeared... I originally thought he had left, but I looked around and couldn't find him, so I shouted out!"

"Has anyone else seen Chen Zhixing?" Ge Qing glanced at the people around him. Everyone present looked at each other and shook their heads.

"Look around again!"

Everyone started to take action, scanning every corner with their mental power. Luo Lai also started searching. He knew that this place was not simple, but he didn't expect that a person disappeared not long after he entered. It could be said that he disappeared in full view of everyone. Yes, no one found out.

Suddenly, the person who just shouted shouted again: "Ah... come here quickly."

Ge Qing and other Celestial Realm masters reacted the fastest. The moment the man shouted, they appeared beside him. At the same time, they looked at the position where his eyes fell, and then their expressions changed drastically.

Luo Lai also quickly came to the man's side, followed the man's gaze, and his face became ugly.

I saw a person who was incompatible with the characters in the mural appeared on the mural in front of the man. The man Luo Lai recognized was the disappeared Chen Zhixing. At this moment, Chen Zhixing seemed to be engraved on his face, his expression was vivid, and the fear and begging in his eyes seemed to shine out.

"Why is he in the mural?"

"What should I do?"

For a moment, everyone was in confusion and didn't know what to do!

Luo Lai guessed that this might be the killing method of this formation, trapping people in the murals to kill their vitality or soul. Over time, the people trapped in the murals would die violently.

At this moment, there are no less than a hundred people in the mural. Could these people have been killed by nerds?

Really cruel!

Luo Lai had already confirmed his guess, so he quickly said: "Everyone, be careful. This is a formation. As long as people are absorbed into it, their vitality will be slowly wiped out. The people on the mural are all examples!"

"Hiss!" The sound of gasping for air kept coming.

Ge Qing was still the calmest and said in a deep voice: "Everyone should stay away from the murals and surround the city to prevent anyone from being absorbed into the formation again."

Then everyone gathered together, back to back, facing outside, surrounding Luo Lai in the middle.

Ge Qing looked at the strokes around him vigilantly and said: "Boy Luo, we don't understand the formation, especially the formation here. I don't know what other methods you have. Use it quickly. Now This is not the time to hide your secrets."

Luo Lai's face was solemn and he didn't say anything. He looked at the layout of the hall without blinking. Then use your mind to observe all directions of the entire hall and use different angles to view it.

He believed that as long as it was a formation arranged by Shi Zuwen, he would definitely be able to find the formation nodes, even if he couldn't find the formations outside. However, this must be an attack-based formation, and the hidden nodes would definitely not be so hidden.

At this moment, a dazed look flashed across his eyes. When he regained his clarity, he heard someone shouting: 'Fellow Daoist Zheng is missing. ’

"Zheng Yuanqing? Where is he...? He was still with me just now."

Zhu Yan's trembling voice sounded: "On the left...in the mural on the wall on the left, there is Chen Zhixing together!"

Everyone quickly looked over there, and sure enough they saw an additional person next to Chen Zhixing, it was Zheng Yuanqing who had disappeared.
