Qin Xuan was somewhat speechless.
“There are only two possibilities. One is that there is an extremely vast Formation underground. This Formation is so massive that I was sent back before even touching its edge.”
“But if that’s the case, this Formation is simply too terrifying.”
Qin Xuan clicked his tongue.
Leaving aside everything else, merely being able to imperceptibly influence his judgment and send him back to the starting point, this ability was already Heaven-Defying.
Taking a deep breath, Qin Xuan shook his head forcefully.
He had concentrated all his attention on this path, and if it really was the work of a Formation, he couldn’t have failed to notice anything.
But the reality was, Qin Xuan hadn’t discovered any abnormalities from beginning to end. Throughout the entire process, he had always thought he was continuously moving forward.
Only at the very end did he realize he had returned to the starting point.
“Then what’s the other possibility?”
Han Ye had a guess in his heart, but he still wanted to hear Qin Xuan’s thoughts.
“The other possibility is that this area was manipulated by some once incredibly powerful existence, making it this way.”
“This incredibly powerful existence didn’t use a Formation; he changed the Law.”
“Law?”
“Yes, the Law.”
Qin Xuan said with certainty.
“It’s the Law. He used some means to alter the spatial Law here, causing it to change.”
“No matter how you walk, it’s very difficult to get out.”
“As for the Heavenly Fiend Sect caravan, either they found a loophole in this Law, or they found something that could circumvent this Law, which is why they could enter here so smoothly.”
Thinking of this, Qin Xuan suddenly impulsively picked up the Array Pattern Disk.
“Why don’t we just pick a random place and leave? This place is really too troublesome.”
Qin Xuan said, but after taking out the Array Pattern Disk, he started to hesitate again.
“This time I came to the Burial Spirit Land. Although this place is troublesome, there’s still a way to leave. But if I really enter a Forbidden Land…”
There were quite a few Forbidden Lands in the Eastern Region.
“What if I enter the Tian Tomb again?”
Qin Xuan frowned slightly, then quickly shook his head.
“Being able to get out last time was also a stroke of Opportunity. If I go in again, it’s really not certain I can get out.”
“If I end up in other Forbidden Lands, that would be even more troublesome.”
Thinking of this, Qin Xuan sighed helplessly.
This was far more dangerous and troublesome than he had imagined.
“If it’s the second situation you mentioned, I’m afraid the Array Pattern Disk won’t work either.”
Just then, Han Ye said to Qin Xuan.
“The Array Pattern Disk won’t work?”
Qin Xuan picked up the Array Pattern Disk in confusion.
At this moment, the golden light on the Array Pattern Disk was very dim.
“The Array Pattern Disk uses spatial Law for positioning and teleportation. The prerequisite for all of this is that the spatial Law of this place has not been affected.”
“But you just said that someone might have changed the spatial Law here. In this situation, do you think your Array Pattern Disk can still be used under the spatial Law here?”
Hearing this, Qin Xuan fell silent.
He tried tapping a few coordinates on the Array Pattern Disk, and seeing no response, Qin Xuan’s expression immediately darkened.
This was indeed the most troublesome situation.
“Once the spatial Law is changed, we can only use the 'dumb' method.”
Han Ye suggested to Qin Xuan.
The so-called 'dumb' method was actually to use the caravan to leave this place.
After all, the caravan clearly had a way to leave here.
Since they could leave, Qin Xuan only needed to follow them.
As long as he broke free from the spatial Law restrictions here, the subsequent matters would be easy to handle.
Thinking of this, Qin Xuan nodded.
“Transactions here are done with Soul Cores. I’ll just kill some Soul Beasts for Soul Cores these few days. Since this grandfather and grandson have a connection with me, I’ll take them out with me.”
Since it was confirmed that he couldn’t leave directly and the Array Pattern Disk had lost its function, Qin Xuan could only act low-key for now.
After all, he could only wait before leaving.
“These caravans are quite interesting; they can actually avoid the spatial restrictions here.”
Qin Xuan pondered what he should do next.
“Also, what exactly was that monster from last night? I keep looking at it and feeling like I’ve seen it somewhere before.”
Han Ye said to Qin Xuan.
“Senior, have you seen something similar before?”
Qin Xuan’s eyes lit up, and he hastily inquired.
Hearing this, Han Ye nodded.
“When I was traveling in the Southern Border back then, I saw something similar. Someone once used such things to fight. This thing looks like some kind of Corpse Puppet!”
Corpse Puppet?
Qin Xuan was stunned. Although he had only seen records of Corpse Puppets in ancient texts.
But according to the records, Corpse Puppets were very stiff.
The thing last night seemed quite flexible; Corpse Puppets shouldn’t be that flexible.
“Forget it, the strength of that thing should be around the Tianxuan Realm. As long as they don’t come out looking for death, we don’t need to bother with them!”
Qin Xuan said, then took out the Array Pattern Disk.
“Anyway, I can’t use this thing for the next few days, so it’s a good time to study it.”
“Senior, you’ve seen how this thing is used in ancient texts. Let’s study it and see how it should be used!”
This Array Pattern Disk was undoubtedly a good item. If it could be used well, it would be another means of escape in the future.
“However, this thing isn’t perfect. If a strong person knows how to use spatial secret arts to imprison, then it won’t be able to leave.”
Qin Xuan stroked his chin in thought.
To use the Array Pattern Disk to leave here, one not only needed to determine the exact location but also ensure that the nearby space was not affected by fluctuations.
“So, this thing also has limitations, but overall it’s a good item. However, the prerequisite is to be able to master the usage of the Array Pattern Disk.”
“There will always be techniques within the longitude and latitude; it can’t be achieved by just randomly tapping.”
Qin Xuan pondered.
“And while I’m at it, find more Soul Cores.”
Returning to the stone house, Qin Xuan bowed to Wang Fu and cupped his hands towards the elder.
“It seems I will be imposing for a few more days.”
Wang Fu didn’t dare to be presumptuous and hastily nodded, agreeing to Qin Xuan.
“Elder, transactions here are done with Soul Cores, right? So, how many Soul Cores are needed to take one person out?”
Qin Xuan asked curiously.
Hearing this, the elder thought for a moment.
“I remember last time they said it would take over a thousand Soul Cores to take one person out.”
Over a thousand Soul Cores just to take one person out.
These scoundrels were truly heartless.
Qin Xuan nodded slightly, looking at the elder.
“Elder, don’t worry. Since I’ve eaten your family’s food, I will help your family. Don’t worry, I will take you and your grandson out when the time comes.”
It was merely a small effort, nothing to Qin Xuan.
