[Xiu Xian] The ninth generation

No one expected that the "Lost City" is worthy of the name, and there is really a city inside the gate.

Huge boulders are stacked together in strange and surprising poses.It's strange because the boulders have not been polished, and they are directly spliced ​​into people and buildings of different shapes; what is surprising is that there is no trace of mana carving in the entire city, including these boulders.In other words, all of these stacked stones are made by manpower, what a huge project it must be.

A group of people walked along the bluestone road in silence.

Walking and walking, I only felt a burst of tragic aura rushing towards my face, and the slightly silent atmosphere inevitably became more and more dull.

"It's not right!"

I don't know how long I have been walking in this state, but a dignified low drink interrupts this strange state.Hearing this, Chu Yanzhi was horrified, and only then realized that he had fallen into a continuous obsession without knowing it. "Formation! No, it seems to be something more advanced than formation..." It was Xie Chen who shouted. ——The confrontation between Xie Chen and Luo Tiancheng outside the Lost City happened in full view of the public, and it was because of the former that they had the opportunity to come in. Chu Yanzhi naturally recognized who awakened everyone, so he couldn't help watching gratefully Glance at each other.Of course, Chu Yan, who was among the crowd, was not the only one who had this reaction.

With his sanity cleared, the dreamlike sense of boundlessness around him became thinner.Taking advantage of this situation, Chu Yanzhi looked around, and saw that except for the people following Xie Chen, only half of the children of those big families fell into a daze. "Nephew Xie Xian." In addition to the third prince, there were several other uncles in the imperial capital who participated in the expedition this time.It is Ouyang Ling, the eldest uncle of the third prince who is speaking at this moment, and it is not an exaggeration to call Xie Chen a "nephew", "You can also see that this is not an ordinary formation. It is probably the legendary 'force formation' array'."

Xie Chen closed his eyes, his fingertips fluttered with spiritual power, and dots of bright blue light radiated outward.After a while, the blue light seemed to hit something, the outward trend stopped for a while, and layers of transparent ripples appeared in front of everyone.Immediately, the blue light seemed to be exhausted, and quickly disappeared, and the ripples disappeared from everyone's eyes again. "Yes." Xie Chen watched the blue light disappear, and frowned, "Ouyang Shibo has good eyesight, it is indeed a kind of momentum. It seems powerful, but my blue aura only lasted for a few breaths , have not yet forced out the prototype of this formation.”

"Dare to ask Fellow Daoist Ouyang, what exactly is this formation?" Luo Yiyuan watched the two of them playing charades for a long time, confused, "And that blue...true energy? It doesn't have any spiritual power. It’s true qi but not like true qi, so what exactly is it?”

Ouyang Ling laughed, and stroked his gray beard inadvertently: "Nephew Xie, I only know superficially about the formation, and it is far less familiar than your hidden family's familiarity with such things." He paused, looked at Xie Chen, the solemnity and appreciation in his eyes are just right: "What exactly is this formation and why it has such functions, my nephew may wish to explain it to us."

Hearing this, Xie Chen took a look at everyone present, seeing that most of them were puzzled and curious, Jun Yi's face could not help showing a bit of pride and complacency: "Potential formation, in terms of understanding, our hidden family is indeed It can be regarded as the word 'familiarity'. Since I have encountered such legendary things here, let me explain one or two for everyone, lest some people do not understand the power of it and cause others bad luck in vain." He looked He glanced at Luo Tiancheng, the intention in his eyes was extremely obvious.On the contrary, it was the latter, with a smile on his face, as if he didn't see the provocation of this glance.

According to Xie Chen, this formation is something that has long been lost.In ancient times, talented people and strange men emerged in large numbers, each leading the way, including beast taming, power array, Gu insects, etc., all shined brilliantly in that era.However, ten thousand years ago, after a vigorous and epic battle (historical materials here are vague and unrecorded, and posterity cannot even figure out what happened), the aura of the cultivation world shrank suddenly, and those with great talent and perseverance Due to various reasons, the powerful monks in the world have fallen one after another, and the cultivation world has been in a slump since then, and it took several thousand years of recuperation before it recovered.After thousands of years of development, it gradually formed the current scale.

After this catastrophe, most of the splendid skills and thaumaturgies of ancient times were annihilated in the vast river of history. Only sporadic and broken fragments—or formulas or remaining fragments of props—were discovered. To get a glimpse of some of the original glory.And precisely because of these sporadic fragments, those people rose rapidly, took advantage of favorable conditions, and became a new generation of powerful monks in the cultivation world.These monks either formed a sect, or formed a hermit family, or were attacked by other envious groups, and it became history forever.After a period of bloody storm, the comprehension world returned to peace again.The "potential array" we are talking about now is the "pseudo-potential array" developed after comprehending fragments of the ancient thaumaturgy potential array, and it is only controlled by the hermit family headed by the Xie family.

As for the blue light, that is, the "blue aura" that Xie Chen said, it is a kind of true energy specially cultivated by the Xie clan to explore whether there is a power formation. habit.Moreover, the blue spirit communicates with the spellcaster, and will analyze the ability of the potential array according to the time of contact with the potential array, and then break the potential array.

Of course, in addition to Xie's good luck, there was also a monk surnamed Fan who discovered some mantras of "Potential Formation" in the Great Swamp of Death thousands of years ago.But because it was so dilapidated, it couldn't be put together.That cultivator surnamed Fan is really talented, he actually relied on these words to create the predecessor of the formation that is now widely circulated.Later, after the improvement of other monks, the current "array" was gradually formed, of course, this is a later story.

Just because the formation was born out of the potential formation, the latter is much better than the former, except for those families, few people know it.Now, the legendary thing was discovered in the lost city. While everyone was surprised, they had to think about the origin of the lost city again.

——Is it, is it really from a foreign land?

"It turns out that the formation is still born out of the potential formation, and I don't know how powerful this potential formation is."

"Sure enough, it is worthy of being a hermit family. The knowledge and cultivation level are beyond the reach of me and other casual cultivators."

"Thank you fellow daoist for the blue aura just now, and only held on for a few breaths, does that mean that this formation is extremely terrifying?"

……

This is the first time I heard such a secret, a group of casual cultivators and major families were stunned for a moment, and then whispered.Especially for those big families, the eyes that fell on Xie Chen also changed from slightly scrupulous to jealous.Naturally, Xie Chen couldn't hide this change, he just twitched the corners of his mouth, showing an almost mocking smile, without saying a word.In the end, Ouyang Ling coughed and brought back the topic that had been diverted from the embarrassment on the field: "The Hidden Family is really extraordinary. I just heard from nephew Xie Xian that your blue aura is connected with your heart. I don't know if nephew Xie knows this situation What is the formation? Is there a way to break it?"

"Yes, yes, what Fellow Daoist Ouyang said is very true." Situ Lan added, "If you have any insights, fellow Daoist, why don't you just say it out and break the formation, so we can go hunting for treasures." I don't know Was it on purpose? He pronounced the word "treasure hunting" very emphatically, causing Xie Chen to look at it twice, and then said meaningfully: "Treasure hunting...that's right. As you can see, my blue aura I only persisted for a few breaths, which shows how powerful this formation is. However, I have also figured out some things." After a pause, he continued to add with a solemn expression: "The coverage of this formation is the entire Lost City , and the formation heart is integrated with the whole city, and cannot be separated."

Hearing this, the heir of the Fen family finally couldn't help frowning: "What do you mean?"

"I think, what Fellow Daoist Xie wants to say is that this formation cannot be cracked." Luo Yuancheng casually straightened his clothes, and retracted the gaze that he had been looking at Xie Chen thoughtfully from the beginning, "The heart of the formation and the lost city Merging into one body means that the heart of the formation is the same size as the formation, and both are lost cities. Once the heart of the formation is broken, the lost city will either be broken forever, or it will disappear in place. Anyway, it will not be a good result... Am I right, fellow daoist thank you?"

Xie Chen snorted coldly, but did not veto it.

"Then what is the plan for now...?"

"I can only take one step and see one step at a time." Luo Yuancheng flicked his sleeves, and in this setting sun, he was quite romantic, "We are already wary of the potential formation, as long as we act carefully, we will naturally not be caught. It has an opportunity to take advantage of."

Seeing that even Xie Chen nodded slightly after hearing this, Ouyang Ling could only heave a long sigh: "So, I'll just play it safe."

Seeing that your families have reached an agreement with Xie Chen, all the casual cultivators looked at each other in blank dismay, and there was no good way.What's more, wealth and wealth are sought in danger, they gritted their teeth, and followed behind Xie Chen, groping towards the unknown place.

Among the crowd, Chu Yanzhi, who was at the front of the middle, stepped back calmly.If he read correctly just now, the cynical Chu Zixuan who had been slightly tugging at the corners of his lips, after seeing the blue aura emitted by Xie Chen, his expression changed again and again.There is always a feeling that Chu Zixuan knows something.Thinking of the other party's intention to keep him in the inn with medicine before, and the vague premonition in his heart... Thinking of this, Chu Yanzhi's steps faltered, and his position moved back again.After retreating so many times, he was hanging at the end of the crowd.

Chu Yanzhi thought that his actions were extremely concealed, but he didn't know that these small actions had already been noticed by a few caring people, who cast extremely interested eyes on him.

Since those people's cultivation bases were higher than his, Chu Yanzhi didn't notice anything wrong.Seeing that there was no way to retreat, he followed the monk nonchalantly and walked forward together.

This side is most likely inherited from the ancient lost city, and they are slowly unveiling the mystery at this moment.
