Chapter 252 Reversal of Formation
On the other hand, Sheng Yuan, despite being in such an unfavorable situation, remained neither humble nor arrogant. He stood with his hands behind his back, his voice as calm as water.
"Exactly."
"Okay, if you say so, then so be it. Ling'er, let's go."
Long Aotian had no intention of arguing with him. He came to Xihai Sect this time because the demons might be making some secret moves here.
In the eyes of most people, Xihai Sect, a medium-to-large sect with an extremely remote location, is just an ordinary one among the many sects in the world of immortal cultivation.
But only a very few people know that the reason why Xihai Sect is in a special location and why even mortal towns have to be designed in the shape of an array is because the existence of this sect itself is a barrier, a barrier at the forefront.
Something that requires an entire sect to serve as a barrier to defend against is naturally not an ordinary thing.
This was a secret of someone else's sect. As an outsider, even if Long Aotian had a good relationship with the then leader of the Xihai Sect, it was impossible for him to know the secret.
He simply flipped through ancient books and slowly pieced together a vague truth from many fragments of information.
In the West Sea, there lives a race called phantom monsters on the seabed.
Although things called phantom monsters also exist on land, and there are even several kinds of monsters called phantom monsters, the rate of duplication of names is extremely high.
But Long Aotian speculated that this kind of phantom monster in the sea was most likely a mermaid or something like that.
But there is no real evidence for anything, and since the establishment of the West Sea Sect, there have been very few reports of monsters coming to the nearby coast to kill and devour mortals.
This shows that as a barrier, the Xihai Sect has done a very good job from generation to generation.
But now their sect is in turmoil, and the leader of a sect with the blood of an auspicious beast has actually been possessed by a demon? If this is said to have nothing to do with the actions of the demon clan, then it would be strange!
They came here to handle serious matters concerning the safety of the world, not to argue about emotional issues with this old senior who was about to die.
"Wait, I know the purpose of your trip. This is the maximum distance in this mortal town. You can't go any further. If you go any further, you will be exposed."
"How do you know?"
Long Aotian stopped and looked back in confusion.
When it came to serious matters, he still had the patience to listen to him for a few more words.
"I've been there before you. The new leader of the Xihai Sect is a very vigilant person, and he has the help of experts behind him. There is a formation master whose strength is not inferior to that of Young Friend Long. He helped him use the clever terrain to set up a visible formation in the entire sect."
The so-called manifestation formation, although the name is simple and straightforward, its effect is really not to be underestimated.
The formation with this name has the ability to see through everything hidden in the world.
No matter you are Yi Rong, or even possessed, as long as you step into this formation, your original appearance and original soul will be revealed.
Hearing about this formation, Long Aotian was not surprised, but he frowned slightly.
Indeed, it is more difficult than expected.
"Master, is there any way to break this formation?" In Zhou Ling's eyes, there was no formation master in the world who was not inferior to his master, and there was no formation that his master could not break.
This was not blind worship, but her knowledge of formations was also taught by her master. The master had mastered countless basic formation structures, and her thinking logic about formations, in the early stages, was almost entirely based on these basic formations, and the effects of zinc were obtained through disassembly and combination.
Later on, the master no longer needed the original basic formation theory of the immortal cultivation world. He was able to create his own foundation and formation structure. He was a true genius and a big shot.
With Zhou Ling's ability, having received the true teachings from his master, he can touch and dismantle all kinds of formations, not to mention his master who is already an old fox.
"It cannot be broken, but it can adapt to the changes. Using itself as a formation, taking advantage of the loopholes in this visible formation, it can set up a small reversal formation. After entering the formation, it can deceive the eyes of the visible formation."
"Oh? So it can be done this way."
Zhou Ling didn't feel that surprised, because when she asked this question, the thoughts in her mind were basically the same as her master's.
It is said that there is always a loophole in a hundred precautions. Except for the formation of the master who keeps a close eye on the mad demon, as long as the formation is set up by others, there may be loopholes. Even if there are no loopholes, there must be relatively weak points, and there will always be a way to break through.
On the contrary, Senior Sheng, who arrived earlier than them and was beaten back earlier than them, was surprised and delighted, with a look on his face as if he couldn't hide something.
Sometimes, looking at his face, it's really hard to doubt, is this it? Occasionally, he looks a little stupid in his clarity, but most of the time, he looks quite dull and a little stubborn. With such a young face and such a simple mind, is he really an old man who is about to die of old age?
Thinking about those old men and women who had been chasing her for opportunities from the heavens, Zhou Ling couldn't help but shudder.
Well, she couldn’t understand many things in the world of immortal cultivation, so she simply didn’t need to understand them.
Master said that some people’s hearts have grown old, and although they can maintain a youthful appearance, they are unwilling to do so and simply return to their true form.
As for some other people, as long as their heart is not old and they want to maintain a young face, all they need to do is take a sleeping pill, which is simple and easy. Therefore, in the world of immortal cultivation, when judging a person's age, one cannot look at their face and appearance, as it is not of much reference value.
There are even some young people over a hundred years old who like to look old and frail. They refuse to take anti-aging pills. Even if their cultivation has reached a certain level, their appearance will slow down aging even if they don't take anti-aging pills.
But those who like to look old will age their appearance faster by using spiritual power. It is just a personal hobby and no one should interfere.
Just like the master, with just one sentence: A man stays young until he dies, he is willing to spend a lot of money and materials to maintain his natural face.
To the extent that he has been controlling the world of immortal cultivation with his good looks for thousands of years, and his effect has lasted forever.
But now, the master, who was famous for his looks rather than his strength back then, with that strange and ordinary disguised face, painted on himself and Zhou Ling's bodies, using the decorations on the clothes to establish points, and then connecting them with the decorations on the uppers of the shoes and the small decorations on the top of the head to form a closed loop, and the small formation was thus formed.
"what about me?"
Sheng Yuan was watching the whole process from the side, and couldn't help but let out a slight exclamation as he watched, but in the end, they were done playing around and were about to leave.
What does that mean? Are you going to leave him alone?
He didn't care about his face anymore and just shouted at them to stop.
"Are you going too?"
Now it was Long Aotian's turn to be surprised. He looked Sheng Yuan up and down with a bit of confusion and scrutiny, and couldn't help but let out a click of the tongue and shook his head slightly.
"Elder Sheng, you are already quite old, why don't you stop doing those things that may cause trouble for you?"
