Chapter 195 Soul Sealing Stage
The two brown fox soul pets that were sacrificed were released, one in front of the other, guarding him in the middle, and he cautiously walked out for nearly a hundred feet.

The passage in front was still deep and endless, and Xu Yuanchang had already put the bamboo box on his back into the ring space.

Without Liu Xianfeng to accompany him, carrying red willow branches on his back would be a burden.

He stopped and called "Lao Shi" a few more times, but this time he didn't get any response.

Along the way, there was no secret mark left by Lao Shi, but he left marks everywhere in the passage with his toes or fingers that the brothers could understand.

Xu Yuanchang turned around suddenly. He had noticed something abnormal just now, but except for the floating fox shadow, there was nothing within ten feet behind him.

His two brown fox soul pets were tempered by seniors Zeng Wanglou and Chang Lao. Although they lost their spirituality, their instincts became more powerful. After asking, no useful information was obtained.

Xu Yuanchang took advantage of the situation to explore the passage he had just walked through. After walking twenty steps, the secret mark he left was particularly noticeable.

However, after walking another ten feet, the traces he carved with his toes disappeared.

Something was messing with him in this half-dead ancient formation.

The passage was filled with spiritual energy, death energy, yin energy and earthy smell. He couldn't tell what was hiding in the dark place?
He walked more and more cautiously, analyzing any clues in the dark rock passage.

After walking back for about two hundred feet, an oval-shaped fork path appeared diagonally downward.

Xu Yuanchang thought for a moment, took out four Yin evil ghost beans, and silently recited the incantation: "Yin and Yang subdue each other, the emperor will stabilize the Three Pure Ones, demons will be subdued, and gods will help the gods... Scatter the beans to form an army, edict!"

As the space of spiritual consciousness combined with the invitation platform, it sent out fluctuations, and he borrowed subtle divine power.

Four small skull-shaped beans scattered and turned into four streams of black energy, transforming into four two-inch-tall jet-black villains.

A few years ago, he learned the "Illusion Spell of Spreading Beans into Soldiers" by thinking alone and with the guidance of senior Chang Lao.

The villain catalyzed by the Yin Evil Ghost Bean can display mid-level first-order strength in a dark environment similar to the Nine Fantasy Palace. The jet-black villain can also turn into mist to hide his whereabouts.

Following his order, the four black men divided into two groups and ran quickly to explore the way ahead.

With the help of a trace of spiritual consciousness attached to the black villain, he could observe the area about three to two feet around the villain, and walk around to check the conditions of the two passages.

The bean soldier running diagonally downward encountered another fork in the road less than fifty feet away.

Xu Yuanchang contacted the bean soldiers through secret divine assistance and ordered the bean soldiers to separate again to explore the road. Soon he found that the forked road went further and the passage became narrower. He judged that it was a branch, and the bean soldiers running in the forked road suddenly exploded with a "bang".

Xu Yuanchang rubbed his forehead. He didn't see clearly what was attacking the bean soldiers?
Then the remaining three bean soldiers exploded one after another.

It is estimated that the bean soldiers will be attacked if they run out of a hundred feet.

Xu Yuanchang gave up exploring the branches of the passage diagonally below. It was unknown how big this maze-like ancient formation was. He decided to search along the largest main passage.

Lao Shi didn't know where he was lost?
I don’t know if the responses that started to appear were from Lao Shi, or maybe they were something secret?
After walking and stopping for nearly two hours, using bean soldiers to clear the way, Xu Yuanchang finally entered a huge circular space.

Xu Yuanzhang ordered several bean soldiers to take the crushed small luminous stones and walk to various parts of the space. He slowly peered into the entire space through the light.

There were thick dark stone ropes wrapped around it.

There were piles of broken bones and powder on the ground. It was unclear whether they were left by humans or animals.

Xu Yuanchang did not notice any formation fluctuations here, nor did he feel any danger. The altar in the consciousness space had already stopped trembling.

He paid careful attention to the six bean soldiers released, and the two bean soldiers walking in the middle "discovered" a huge pillar.

Less than a hundred feet away from him, Xu Yuanchang secretly communicated with his soul and ordered all the bean soldiers to gather in the middle. He was reluctant to waste too many bean soldiers.

Xu Yuanchang walked into the cold and chaotic circular space under the protection of the fox spirits in front and behind.

Arriving under the huge pillar, Xu Yuanchang released three luminous stones, illuminating a nearby area of ​​more than 20 feet. As the luminous stones rose into the air, when he looked up, he still couldn't see the top of the pillar. He could only see shadowy ropes and gloominess above. dark.

Order six bean soldiers to explore along the giant pillar.

Soon it was discovered that the giant pillar was a hexagonal high platform, with each side about thirty feet wide.

After thinking about it, he walked around the high platform twice and walked around the entire huge space several times. Even the bone fragments and powder on the ground were moved away with branches to check. It didn't take a lot of brain work to guess that he had touched the center of the ancient formation.

Xu Yuanchang jumped up and flew upward, with the fox spirit following closely to protect him.

If you want to get out, you can only go to the high platform to check and look for opportunities to break the formation.

The bean soldiers stayed below, each guarding one side of the giant platform.

Avoiding the chaotic and entangled stone ropes in the air, Xu Yuanchang flew down to a platform about thirty feet high. Under the light of the luminous stone, he stared at a dark irregular giant placed in the middle, like a rough potato, about seven meters tall. It's eight feet huge.

Use your spiritual consciousness to look at things without any vitality or fluctuations.

Walking around the flat surface, he was thinking about whether he should try to break open the giant object?

Although he had never come into contact with the "Stone-Suppressing Soul-Sealing Platform" ancient formation that Zhao Jun mentioned, he had also observed several broken formations of Shinto formations. However, as far as he could see, he did not find any divine talisman or curse patterns, so he looked for There is no "magic point" to break the formation.

The silent altar in the spiritual consciousness space suddenly shook violently without any warning.

Xu Yuanchang was shocked and flew back without hesitation.

Trying to fall to the ground below the stage.

The pressure in the air was suddenly too great for him to resist, and he was suddenly forced to sit on the table, less than five feet from the edge.

The two fox souls let out sharp screams and exploded into black energy that dispersed into the air.

The luminous stone floating above was broken into powder.

The green Taoist robe on Xu Yuanchang's body is a magic weapon and a treasure, blooming with bright green light.

The Bagua Cloud Pendant he wore exuded large and small Bagua virtual patterns.

Mysterious mountain marks and cloud patterns flow all over the body.

The sapphire belt that ties the waist also flows with brilliance and shines.

A leopard shadow appeared behind him, opening its huge mouth and letting out a silent roar. It was a late second-level leopard demon that he had killed on a mission in the Infinite Mountains the year before. It was a life-defying demon soul pet that two seniors helped him refine.

The whole body is protected so tightly that even the attacks from the masters of the late stage of Sanzhonglou can be dealt with seven or eight times without any damage.

The turtle shell style monks were ridiculed by He Shutang and Zhao Jun.

His defensive cost under himself is far higher than that of the same level.

Xu Yuanchang raised his head with difficulty and saw the giant "potato" placed in the middle of the stage. It expanded slightly and then contracted, making a "thumping" sound similar to a heartbeat. It was hollow and rhythmic, and gusts of wind blew throughout the space.

The entangled stone ropes collided with each other, making the sound noisy and chaotic.

However, the "bang" sound was clearly audible.

Xu Yuanchang's face showed a look of pain, and the altar shook violently.

His heart expanded and contracted with the hollow "thumping" sound, and waves of pain swept through his body. Qi and blood surged with it, and he was gradually in danger of losing control.

What kind of monster is the thing in front of me?

……

Above the stone forest, the sun shines high.

Elder Mei and five Yunshan guards who came from the capital gathered together. After asking for instructions, Hei Xiayi also arrived from Lianshan City.

With a worried look on her face, Liu Xianfeng recounted the story of the young master's disappearance in detail.

In a nearby area, she and Zhao Jun, as well as Bi He, Lei Gongchong and more than 20 people who came from behind, searched carefully for countless times, but the young master disappeared so strangely.

Just like the missing Lao Shi, no clues were left behind.

Mei Yuanjian's expression became serious, and he looked down at the forest of rocks below. Of course he knew that this place was the ruins of the ancient formation, and there were many records in the classics, but with the continuous occurrence of strange things, he couldn't help but suspect that the ancient formation was not completely dead. Maybe the ferocious beast suppressed under the Stone-Suppressing Soul-Sealing Stage is still alive?
The message was transmitted to the captain of the Yunshan Guards, and he asked the captain to send the message back. The people carefully searched through various books on the ancient formation of the Soul-Suppressing Stone-Sealing Platform near Tingyun Mountain in the Wuxian Mountain Territory, and searched for the ancient formation of the Soul-Suppressing Stone-Sealing Platform. Array diagram.

He has read too many books, and no matter how good his memory is, it is impossible to remember the details of every book he has browsed.

He needs to know the specific year when the ancient formation was formed, and what kind of ferocious beast was suppressed?

If you look at the array diagram again, you may be able to find useful clues.

Mei Yuanjian asked everyone to exit the stone forest. He walked alone among the three-mile-sized stone pillars and stalagmites, using his spiritual consciousness and magic weapons to investigate carefully. He knew that the nearby ten-mile area belonged to the ancient formation area, and maybe the area was wider. It would be difficult to find clues. great.

He won't bother to deduce it for the time being.

The matter involved an ancient Shinto formation, and based on his Taoism, he couldn't calculate the specific location, at most it was a rough idea.

Mei Yuanjian suddenly stopped and listened. There was a faint "thumping" sound like a heartbeat coming from the ground, which made his face change color. This sound seemed to have some magical power and could actually affect his heartbeat. .

The demon hunters from the third level building who exited the stone forest all felt the "bang" sound.

Liu Xianfeng and others below the third floor were not aware of it.

I just felt waves of discomfort, indescribably weird.

Mei Yuanjian calmed down for a moment, eliminated some of the influence of the voice on him, and shouted loudly: "Everyone, please retreat ten miles away. No outsiders are allowed to trespass here."

This ancient formation is really not dead.

I don't know if it was Shi Wangchen or Xu Yuanchang who actually caused the movement in the ancient formation.

He guessed that it was Xu Yuanchang who caused the abnormality. That boy was not very cultivated, had many strange abilities, and had better luck.

I hope nothing happens to the little guy.

It's not that he's worried about being blamed by the experts behind Xu Xiaoyou. Disasters like this kind of exploration and adventure are not man-made disasters, and no one can blame him.

Everyone should say "obey" and disperse and retreat according to each group's formation, each guarding one side.

It's really like steel. It's impossible to let the Sanzhonglou monks break into the ancient formation area.

Mei Yuanjian sent out several thousand-mile communication talismans one after another.

The ancient Shinto formation is about to be unveiled. For such a big event, several deputy palace masters of Sitian Palace must be invited to attend in person.

There are huge unknown interests involved, and it is impossible for him to make arbitrary claims.

……

In less than a cup of tea, Xu Yuanchang's face was twisted and his nose was bleeding.

The protection on his body, in addition to the "Mountain Mark Cloud Pattern" formed by the mountain spirit, can help him resist the "thumping" sound similar to the heartbeat made by the monster and alleviate his pain.

Other Taoist robes, Bagua cloud pendant, sapphire belt and leopard soul pet can only help him withstand the huge pressure.

If he continues to delay like this, he will definitely die from a burst heart within a moment or three.

Xu Yuanchang endured the pain with great perseverance, made secrets with his hands, and used the concentrated mountain spirit and power to strengthen the protection, causing the mountain marks and clouds to flow quickly on the surface of the body.

The pain slowly subsided, and Xu Yuanchang quickly turned his head.

He must find a way out of trouble. He cannot withstand the long-term consumption of mountain energy.

He guessed that in this weird Shinto formation, only Shinto secret techniques could resist it. The mountain pinching technique with one hand maintained the mountain mark cloud pattern. He silently recited the incantation, quickly cast the Five Evils secret spell with his left hand, and flicked it away with one finger.

On the giant rough black stone ten feet away, a small piece of green wood evil suddenly appeared.

He used his sharpest Shinto attack secret method.

However, Mu Sha faded at a speed visible to the naked eye, and disappeared after three breaths.

Xu Yuanchang then used the Liujia Qimen Incarnation Technique, causing the altar to tremble violently. After spending some time, a figure quietly appeared in front of him about a few feet away and rushed towards the boulder.

Regardless of whether it worked or not, he had to try more.

The heartbeat of the monster in front of him was interrupted by the sudden appearance of the incarnation, and there was a pause.

Xu Yuanchang seized the opportunity to breathe, flew his hands, and used the "mountain pinching sense" against the black rocks, trying to absorb the power of the mountain.

The incarnation that rushed towards it had exploded into pieces and scattered in the air.

Xu Yuanchang was overjoyed. He successfully absorbed the mountain power from the boulder.

A steady stream of mountain power replenishes itself, and is transformed into mountain marks and cloud patterns to strengthen the body's protection. It is consumed in the confrontation with monsters, and the two sides fall into a strange balance.

The space was roaring with gusts of wind, and the collisions were noisy and chaotic.

The "thumping" and "thumping" of the heartbeat are boring and hollow, and they are endless.

After a stalemate for about a quarter of an hour, Xu Yuanchang heard a soft "click" sound. The Bagua Cloud Pei around his waist was overwhelmed and cracks appeared. Xu Yuanchang was so frightened that he quickly asked the Leopard Soul Pet to increase protection to withstand the pressure everywhere.

In a certain passage of the ancient maze formation, Shi Wangchen was blocked by a cloud of cold black air and could not escape.

He had heard Brother Xu's voice earlier and responded with all his strength. Later, he was trapped airtight by these nasty ghosts who could not be killed, and Brother Xu's call gradually faded away.

Life and mana are slowly draining away. I wonder how long he can hold on?
Suddenly, the black air turned into thin shadows and flew away, disappearing completely in a moment.

Shi Wangchen slowly slid to the ground. He guessed that Brother Xu had made progress and freed him. For a while, he couldn't get up. He trembled and took out the elixir and stuffed it into his mouth. He had to recover quickly.

This damn place is too dangerous.

He used the rope-climbing cloud escape technique, and the Shinto secret method was interrupted. He fell from the air, hit a stalagmite cave entrance, and entered this place inexplicably.

Various black shadows of different sizes flew out of countless passages, swarming into the huge circular space.

The monsters circled and roared, condensing into seven or eight thick black giant shadows. There were beasts and people, with teeth and claws, and they pounced from the sky on Xu Yuanchang who was sitting cross-legged on the high platform to deal with the strange rocks.

They must prevent humans from destroying the objects in the middle of the platform. This is their mission.

Xu Yuanchang felt that he was being attacked from both sides, and the coldness was approaching. He did not panic. He raised his left hand and silently meditated on the word "Guan" hidden in the bronze ring of the Great Fantasy Immortal Temple. The ring appeared, with a faint golden light, and the Bagua patterns on the ring emerged and bloomed. .

The giant shadows that fluttered down from the air were illuminated by scattered golden light, and emitted unusually sharp and shrill howls of beasts and ghosts.

Struggling to dissolve at an extremely fast speed.

The black rock monster on the opposite side was also illuminated by several rays of golden light, but did not have any abnormal reaction, which made Xu Yuanchang a little disappointed, but then he was relieved and just spent it slowly.

Since he accidentally opened the space and hidden functions of the ring, he has spent a lot of time trying.

I have mastered the use of visualization to stimulate the golden light of the ring, and it has miraculous effects on dealing with ghosts and ghosts.

As the eight giant shadows disappeared completely, the dim golden light also converged.

After about half an hour, Xu Yuanchang heard a clear "click" sound in his ears. He discovered that it was not the treasures on his body that were damaged, but cracks in the black stone knot in the middle of the high platform, which spread rapidly.

Xu Yuanchang became more and more courageous as he sucked, and the space of his spiritual consciousness was shaking violently. He asked the altar to slowly calm down. He was finally going to lose.

Suddenly I noticed that the whole space was shaking, and a dull roar echoed.
The tangled and messy stone ropes broke one after another, smashing to the ground from the air, and the strong wind stopped.

Xu Yuanchang was a little dumbfounded.

No, this place seems to be collapsing.

He hasn't completely defeated the monster yet, and the pressure is so great that he can't escape.
