The Fourth Financial Crisis
Chapter 535 Array Masters
After explaining the matter to Fumeng, Liu Hanxing immediately turned to the formation masters in front of him and asked directly: "How are your preparations going?"
One of the bald old formation masters with the highest level of cultivation stroked his gray beard and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Mr. Liu, I have devoted myself to researching how to break the ban for three hundred years, and several fellow Taoists who helped have also broken the ban. Professionals in the field, if the information you provided is correct, the secret archives of the Haiya family can only be opened by direct descendants of the five major Haiya families. Then we can find out by tracing back the connection between Ye Chen and the soul of the secret room. Its clues.”
Hearing that the bald array master was over 300 years old, the crowds including Yang Chenglong and Ma Kezhang were shocked.
Because ordinary monks in the foundation-building stage only have a lifespan of more than two hundred years at most, that is to say, the bald old formation master who is more than 300 years old in front of him should be a serious master of the golden elixir stage.
It's not that big of a deal to be a Golden Core Formation Master, but more than three hundred years old should be the time when a Golden Core Phase monk is in the prime of life, but this person actually became bald at such a "young" age. Just with this dignified appearance, it looks like When he got up, he had quite impressive formation attainments.
Liu Hanxing also quickly introduced and extended his hand: "This is Master Qiu Bufeng, the famous formation master of our Wuliang Sword Sect. This time he came to Haiya City to help break the ban on the Haiya Sect's secret archives."
Since most of the formation masters lived in seclusion, Yang Chenglong and Ma Kezhang had never met Qiu Bufeng before, but they had heard of Master Qiu's name and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.
Liu Hanxing looked at Qiu Bufeng's bald head and felt a lot more at ease. He was just about to continue to encourage these array masters when he heard Qiu Bufeng take the initiative to ask: "President Liu, through Ye Chen's soul induction There is nothing technically wrong with inferring the location of the Haiya Department's secret archives, but I'm just worried that if the other party knows that we brought Ye Chen to Haiya City with great fanfare, will they move the archives in advance? ah?"
Hearing this question, Liu Hanxing just pointed to the sky with his hand and said: "This is why I applied to the head master to blockade Haiya City. This blockade of Haiya City was directly ordered by the head master. No After passing through anyone's hands, they will definitely not have time to transfer the materials. I just don't know how long it will take you to find the location of the secret room? After all, the cost of sealing off Haiya City is too high. If the time drags on too long, I will also be delayed. Sorry."
"Don't worry, Mr. Liu. Although you have just brought Ye Chen here, my formation team has been secretly preparing here for a long time. We will be able to give you a satisfactory result as soon as this evening." mentioned his own Professional, the bald-headed formation master suddenly showed a proud look on his face, pointing at the dense formations in this quiet room and gushing, "These formations are all created by us according to local conditions. Some formations can strengthen the relationship between Ye Chen and the archives." With the soul induction, some formations are specially used to break the interference restrictions set by the opponent, and some formations are used to locate the opponent's position..."
Seeing the "young old formation master" in front of him talking more and more, Liu Hanxing, who did not understand the principles of "Immortal Formation Logic", quickly raised his hand and interrupted: "I am assured of your professional level, but you must not Underestimating the enemy! Although I am not an expert in formation technology, I have also heard that in order to build this secret archives thousands of years ago, the Haiya coefficient paid heavily to hire a team of top formation masters from the West Pole State to take action—— "
Hearing Liu Hanxing mention the "Western Jizhou Advanced Formation Team", the expressions of the formation masters present suddenly changed, as if Liu Hanxing suddenly mentioned some terrifying existence that could not even be mentioned.
The bald array master Qiu Bufeng was even more like a cat with exploded hair, and his emotions suddenly became excited: "Is President Liu doubting our business capabilities? Those Xijizhou array masters who built the secret archives back then are dead. I don’t know how many years have passed, but if living people like us can’t even deal with a dead thing, then we might as well commit collective suicide!”
The other formation mages also started making noises.
"President Liu looks down on people too much!"
"Although our formation level in Zhongzhou is not as good as that in West Jizhou, we still won't stretch our crotch to this level!"
"In order to successfully complete the task assigned by you, Master Qiu also specifically asked for the research notes of the formation master who designed the archives for the Haiya Sect from his colleagues in the Shenxiao Sect!"
Faced with Liu Hanxing's doubts, the formation masters expressed their dissatisfaction, but the information inadvertently revealed by a certain foundation-building formation master caught Yang Chenglong's attention.
If cracking the formations of the ancients is compared to a new programmer sorting out the mountain of code left by the previous programmer, then the research notes left by the array master who set up the formation are equivalent to the annotations of this mountain of code. It makes the work of breaking the formation countless times easier. When I heard that Qiu Bufeng actually found out the identity of the formation master of Xiji Prefecture who built the archives for the Haiya Department, and followed the clues to find the other party's research notes, Yang Chenglong couldn't help but change his face slightly:
This is a key item that can change the situation!
Although the Haiya Sect once boasted that the formations in its archives were written by the top formation masters in the West Jizhou State and could not be deciphered by ordinary people, if the Wuliang Sword Sect obtained the research notes of the organizers, the situation would be difficult to say. , I don’t know if Consultant Yang and the others have this information...
Thinking of this, Yang Chenglong quickly asked: "How did you find out the identity of the West Ji State Formation Master?"
The foundation-building formation master who just talked a lot is a technical nerd with no sense of confidentiality at all, and he confessed carelessly: "What's so difficult about this? After all, the circle of high-level formation masters is not very big, and they specialize in the production of secret chambers and bloodlines. The number of formation masters in the formation is even smaller. With this research note here, we can easily-"
"That's enough!" Unfortunately, before this person could finish speaking, Qiu Bufeng angrily interrupted him, "What do you mean, kid? Without that guy's research notes, can't I break his restriction?"
After the foundation-building formation master was criticized, he immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing. He did not bother to continue answering Yang Chenglong's questions, and apologized to Qiu Bufeng again and again: "No... it's nothing! Master Qiu, you Misunderstanding, I definitely didn’t mean it!”
The bald formation master Qiu Bufeng has studied formations for half his life, and the most intolerable thing is for others to doubt his level of formations.
Because every time after he finished setting up the formation, there would always be someone who wanted to torture his soul by asking, "How does your formation compare with the West Jizhou Formation Master?" This caused him to suffer from a very serious "Xiji State Formation Master PTSD" ". He was already very dissatisfied just now when Liu Hanxing questioned him on the grounds that he was "the Array Master of the West Ji State". Now his assistant dared to hint that their biggest reliance was actually the research notes of the secret room designer back then, which made him even more dissatisfied. Qiu Bufeng couldn't bear it anymore.
If you rely on the other party's notes to break the other party's restriction, this is definitely a great shame in the formation world!
Most of the array masters present were Qiu Bufeng's assistants and were very familiar with Qiu Bufeng's temper. After seeing his dissatisfaction, the group of people said "Master Qiu's advice" on the spot, "Even without that note, You can easily defeat the other party" and other flattering words were sent to him, which made Qiu Bufeng's face look a little better.
When Liu Hanxing saw the big reaction of these cultivation programmers, he also knew that he had just taken the initiative to mention "Xi Jizhou Formation Master", which was a direct attack on the other party's taboo topic.
Although he is the vice president of the Lingshi Reserve Bank, the formations of the Lingshi Reserve Bank and the Wuliang Sword Sect also need to be maintained by these guys. It is really inconvenient for Liu Hanxing to offend these guys, so he can only say good things and bad things for a while. The group of formation mages were barely appeased.
After receiving the commitment from the formation masters, Liu Hanxing also breathed a sigh of relief.
Although these array masters are very rude, they don't talk nonsense. They say that they are sure to quickly locate the secret archives of the Haiya Department. This confidence is definitely not small.
After the clamor of the array masters gradually subsided, Yang Chenglong took the time to ask Liu Hanxing: "President Liu, do you think the Haiya Department will urgently transfer the information inside the archives, causing us to make a fuss? "
Liu Hanxing shook his head and said: "I have already investigated the issue you mentioned in advance! According to the information provided by Fei Fan, the reason why the five major families of the Haiya Department keep these files in special prohibitions is to prevent foreign enemies from stealing them. , and more importantly, they also want to prevent these materials from being misappropriated by other major families..."
Hearing this, Yang Chenglong showed a thoughtful expression and said, "You mean, even the Haiya Department themselves can't retrieve the information they keep in the secret archives?"
Liu Hanxing gave an affirmative answer: "Well, according to Elder Fei, although the direct descendants of the five major families can view these materials, if you want to take the materials from them, you must have bloodline certification from four of the major families. At present, There are only the heads of the three major families of the Haiya family in Haiya City, and they also have Xu Haihong, the head of the Xu family, who is now stranded in Huoyun State!"
Yang Chenglong completely understood now.
Although this operation of the sea cliff system seems very painful, it is very necessary when you think about it carefully.
After all, the five major families of the Haiya family (now the four major families) are full of conflicts. If any family patriarch can take away the materials without permission, it would be equivalent to directly taking advantage of the other major families.
Even though the Haiya Clan had stipulated such a conservative policy that "four of the five major families must agree to take materials," it eventually led to the murder of the four major Haiya Clan families who joined forces to annihilate the Ye family in Zhongzhou, and the four major Haiya Clan families The reason why the merger was not continued is probably because the four major families can no longer be without any one, otherwise no one will be able to transfer the materials in the archives in the future!
If it weren't for this heavy protection, not to mention Xu Haihong, the head of the Xu family, would not dare to work in Huoyun State, and the patriarchs of the other three major families would not have to practice. They would have to keep an eye on these files all year round to feel at ease!
Now that the head of the Wuliang Sword Sect suddenly issued a city closure order, Xu Haihong couldn't do it even if he wanted to rush back to transfer the data. And it would be equally difficult to move the whole set of restrictions under the eyes of the Wuliang Sword Sect, so these materials have already been Having become the turtle in the urn, now it's up to the Wuliang Sword Sect's formation mages to see if they can use Ye Chen's power to locate them.
And according to the statement of the bald array master Qiu Bufeng, this matter may not be difficult for them.
Now that the tool man Ye Chen is in place, Liu Hanxing can lock the life gate of the Haiya Department at any time. The situation of the Haiya Department is already very dangerous. As the top undercover agent of the Haiya Department, Yang Chenglong can't help but feel a little anxious.
However, Yang Chenglong is a veteran liar after all, and his nervousness did not affect his judgment.
He knew that he still had some things that he had not asked clearly, so he pretended to make suggestions for Liu Hanxing and asked Qiu Bufeng: "Master Qiu, you just said that you need to use Ye Chen's soul connection to reversely trace the formation of the Haiya Sect. , does this mean that when the formation is activated, we still need Ye Chen himself to provide cooperation?"
Before Qiu Bufeng could answer, Liu Hanxing raised his hand and said: "This is not a problem. Now that the head master has negotiated terms with Cheng Shuying, Ye Chen has no other choice now. The only thing left in the entire Jiuzhou cultivation world is We can take revenge on the Sea Cliff Sect for him, and he must cooperate even if he wants to, and he must cooperate even if he doesn’t want to!"
Yang Chenglong nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
So far, he has figured out all of Liu Hanxing's plans.
Liu Hanxing probably felt that he had already won. Even if he told the Haiya Department about his conspiracy, the Haiya Department, which had been cut off from foreign aid, would not be able to deal with it, so he did not hide it from those around him this time.
Therefore, Yang Chenglong showed an expression of sudden realization, but his right hand hidden in his sleeve robe, at an angle that Liu Hanxing could not notice, secretly poured spiritual energy into the switch that Han Xinhe had privately given to him some time ago.
As a dignified Jindan monk, Liu Hanxing was keenly aware of Yang Chenglong's little move at the first time, but he just frowned slightly and did not take this little move to heart.
The cultivation switch does not have clear directionality like traditional communication spells. The spiritual energy fluctuations it generates are generated when the spiritual energy signals are converted into the array language, and when the array signals are directionally transmitted through the infinite sea of void, But it cannot be captured by the spiritual consciousness of ordinary cultivators (the spiritual consciousness below the Nascent Soul stage can only feel the spiritual energy, but cannot detect the essence of the infinite sea of void).
And this is the biggest underlying principle difference between switches and other communication methods.
No matter how clever and difficult to intercept other communication methods, they must have a clear direction, because according to the common sense of Kyushu cultivators, if the communication method does not have a specific direction, it will not be able to reach a specific person. The cultivation switch invented by Lin Musen has exactly this kind of non-directional characteristic!
In other words, the strongest point of the Cultivation Switch is not the technical difficulty, but that it takes advantage of the blind spots of the cultivators' thinking.
Therefore, in Liu Hanxing's view, Yang Chenglong's performance when pouring mana into the switch is very similar to the performance of a cultivator who usually performs small refreshing spells on himself. There is nothing questionable about it, and Yang Chenglong is inputting into the switch In addition to mana, he also used some refreshing spells as a cover.
After Yang Chenglong's message entered the cultivation switch, it instantly crossed the boundless sea of chaos in time and space and was transmitted to the switch in Yang Lu's hand. And Yang Lu learned Liu Hanxing's action plan through the information translated by the switch machine. Afterwards, the cultivation capitalists of the Haiya system were notified as soon as possible.
