After inheriting Taoism, I became a top class

Penglai Xianshan can use various spells and secret techniques that the outside world has never heard of, but no matter what spells or secret techniques are used, they cannot stop modern weapons of mass destruction.

Shadow said: "Before, I heard the young people who lived here talk about such weapons. Didn't I expect it to be true? If this is the case, then you should blow up this place quickly. People are dying everywhere in this kind of place. It's better to destroy it as soon as possible! If I destroy this place, I can probably give up my obsession and leave..."

Shadow's tone was full of hatred, but also somewhat desolate.

Xia Qinghe said: "Then there's no need to be so anxious, I haven't finished asking."

"What else do you want to ask?" Shadow said, "I don't know much. After all, I have been trapped here. Unless someone passes by here, otherwise, I can't know anything else."

"A few decades ago, didn't a group of young people come to the island to practice? Do you know the reason?"

Shadow said, "I don't know why, but I know one thing."

"what's up?"

"At the beginning, there were a total of 83 young people who went to the island, but only 78 left in the end. There were five more people who died here."

Zhang Xian said: "Didn't those young people notice that there are fewer people?"

"I heard that they come from all walks of life, and even from other countries. They are all strangers who don't know each other. In addition, they didn't leave on the same day. In this case, if there are a few lonely young people, who would Will you care?"

"Are the five missing people taken to continue their lives?" Zhang Xian asked.

The shadow said: "Yes, it is not."

Zhang Xian frowned slightly: "What's going on? Tell me more clearly."

"You big monster, after living for so many years, you are not as patient as a young human being." Shadow said, "I've always been bored, so why don't you talk to me a few more times?"

Zhang Xian said: "Okay, okay, I can talk with you until dawn. Then tell me, what do you mean by what you just said?"

Shadow said: "This is my guess, and I can't guarantee that it is correct. More than 70 years ago, the air on the island began to change. At the same time, the people on the island discovered that the aura suddenly became thinner, so they were very panicked. "

"What's there to panic about? The aura of the whole land has become thinner. Compared with the outside, this place is considered good." Zhang Xian said: "They can go out and have a look, there is almost no aura outside. The cultivation depends purely on human beings. With that little foundation, of course, you can’t do anything well.”

"That's different. People on the island have enjoyed the convenience of ample aura since ancient times. If they become the same as outsiders, their strength will be weakened, and they don't even know how to practice. Of course they will panic. I am also I have practiced here before, so I can understand their fear. Back then, I practiced here for a month, which was worth half a year outside." Shadow said.

"Afterwards, didn't the island owner solve this matter?" Zhang Xian said, "It sounds easy."

Xia Qinghe said: "How can it be so easy to change the spirit energy back? So sir suspects that the island owner has done something unseen?"

"Yes, what they are best at is using other people's lifespans to benefit themselves, so it shouldn't be surprising that they do the same thing in order to solve the problem of diminishing aura?"

Zhang Xian said: "You mean the spirit-gathering formation? But many years ago, the spirit stones have been consumed. Are there still many spirit stones here? Of course, ancient jade can also be used to make the spirit-gathering formation. But , The amount of ancient jade is also limited, how can it support the aura of an island?"

Xia Qinghe's expression suddenly changed: "It's definitely not the Spirit Gathering Array. If it was the Spirit Gathering Array, the air here wouldn't be so disgusting."

Shadow nodded: "The young man is right, you are really smart. Penglai Xianshan has never been disturbed by the outside world, so the inheritance here is the most comprehensive. Back then, I was also Master's favorite, so , I have entered the highest-level library on the island, and saw many secret techniques and formations that the outside world could not think of, all of which are the most taboo."

"How taboo is it? Could it be that people's lives are used to form the formation?" Zhang Xian asked.

Shadow didn't speak, but nodded.

Xia Qinghe suddenly said: "There is a formation, which is laid out on the bottom of the sea, in a circular shape, with complex patterns carved out of huge stone slabs, a large bronze cauldron is placed in the center, and several rings of urns are placed on the outermost edge. , the ashes of children are contained in the jar. Have you ever seen such a large formation in the book?"

Shadow was obviously stunned for a moment, and after a while, he said, "I've seen it before."

"Does the gentleman know what this big formation is for?" Xia Qinghe asked, but he already had his own guess in his heart.

If you guessed right, the big formation on the bottom of the sea must have been made by people from Penglai Xianshan.

Shadow said in a low voice: "I know, it is written in the book that this formation can gather energy. You should all know that every ordinary person has energy in him. In the past, some evil spirits would use the energy of ordinary people to cultivate. "

"Yeah, what's the matter?" Zhang Xian said, "Didn't you like to talk just now? Why are your words so short now?"

Shadow said: "I'm mainly a little shocked. Since the young man asked about this big formation, it is obvious that you have seen it with your own eyes, right?"

"Yes, I've seen it." Xia Qinghe said, "That's why I want to know, is this large formation the reason why the spiritual energy on the island returned to normal?"

Zhang Xian's eyes widened, and Shadow nodded again: "Yes."

Many, many years ago, Shadow was still the beloved apprentice of the former island owner. Once, because he won No.1 in the teacher competition, he was rewarded to go to the most secret library on the island to read books for three days.

Shadow has a specialty, which is not worth mentioning in the world of cultivation, but it is very enviable outside. He can never forget.

Therefore, during these three days, he read many, many books, and he memorized every one of them.

Among them is a handwritten ancient book, the font is Xiaozhuan, the paper has turned yellow, I don't know when it was written.

There were some formations written on it, which Shadow had never seen before.

Among them was a large formation, which was the large formation under the sea that Xia Qinghe had seen before.

This kind of large formation is very complicated, and four large formations need to be placed in different directions at the same time to ensure its operation.

For these four formations, the island has always been equipped with bronze tripods.

The most critical point to support the operation of the large formation is the densely packed ashes around it.

Every big formation needs the ashes of hundreds of children. Shadow said: "When I first saw this formation, I was full of doubts. I don't understand why Penglai Xianshan, who is a righteous way, would treasure such books Put it in the library. But then I realized that the first island owner of Penglai Xianshan must have been worried about the problem of spiritual energy. If one day, the spiritual energy here becomes less, it is time for the big formation. This After the four large formations are set up, a large loop will be formed, absorbing all the vitality of everyone in the place covered by the four large formations, and through the bronze cauldron as a conduction, it will become the aura of the island. There are also receiving people on the island Formation, but relatively simple, only need a big bronze tripod and stone slabs to complete, it does not need children's ashes."

Zhang Xian sneered and said, "So both you and Bai Ze hate the air on the island, and Bai Ze also said that the island smells like blood and human life because they killed many children for the sake of these four formations." ?”

Shadow said: "That's right, it's clearly written in the book that the ashes of children used in the formation must be fresh, and the time of death should not exceed half a year. I don't think they will dig a lot of children's graves, right?"

Zhang Xian stopped talking, and he slammed his fist hard at the courtyard wall beside him.

Xia Qinghe looked quite calm. He said: "Mister said that there must be four large formations, but I only found one on the bottom of the sea. I want to know, are the directions of the other three large formations written in the book?"

"It's written, and it should be able to be calculated." Shadow said: "The one on the bottom of the sea should be the outermost one. It is placed on the bottom of the sea to transmit the spiritual energy gathered by the four large formations back to the island. The other three large formations , should be on land, because only land has humans.”

The shadow drew a circle in the air with his hand, and drew a cross in the middle of the circle.

He said: "It is written in the book that the four large formations are all on the top of the cross, and can move along the center of the circle, and the range of the circle cannot exceed two hundred miles. As long as the formation is deployed, all the formations within the entire circle The anger of humans, animals, and monster races will be sucked away by the formation for twelve hours without interruption."

Two hundred miles is one hundred kilometers, and a large circle with a diameter of one hundred kilometers can enclose many, many humans.

Especially in the seaside city where the film was filmed, it is a tourist attraction, and there are huge crowds, so there must be a lot of life that can be absorbed.

"Then why didn't we notice it?" Zhang Xian said.

Shadow said: "Because there are too many people, if you suck a little from everyone, you won't notice anything at all. At most, weak people will feel tired easily, and a strong young man like this young man will not feel it at all. There will be any impact. But over time, there will still be problems. For example, people who could live to be 90 years old can only live to be 88 years old because their vitality is sucked away. You said that the island smells of blood and human life , that’s because every inch of air here is made of human life.”

Xia Qinghe nodded and said, "Thank you sir, it is our luck to meet you today."

"You don't have to thank me. I've already asked someone outside to talk about these things, but unfortunately I haven't had the chance." Shadow said, "I'm also very happy today. You guys are willing to talk with me for so long."

Zhang Xian said, "Do you have anything else to ask?"

"Not for the time being, mainly because we don't know much information." Xia Qinghe thought for a while and said, "By the way, there is one more question."

"Tell me." Shadow seemed in a good mood.

"A mortal in his twenties who can't cultivate, is there any secret method that can make him suddenly have a physique that can cultivate?"

Shadow thought for a while and said, "There is a reason for that, but unfortunately I haven't read related books in Zangshuge, so I don't know much about it."

After that, Xia Qinghe had no more questions, so he thanked him solemnly, and then went back to the house to continue sleeping.

At five o'clock the next morning, the barrier outside the courtyard was opened.
