215 Step-by-step traps are hard to count
At this time, the self-born monument was separated from the boundary, in a deep cave. It is covered with vines, there is a spring of clear water in the middle, and there is wind everywhere. Dozens of feet above the head, there is a rock crack that looks like a patio in the courtyard. A ray of sunlight pierced into the deep underground cavern like a sword, just enough to illuminate the cave.
There is a flat rock beside the spring, on which a beautiful brocade quilt has already been paved. The two sat opposite each other in the darkness like a game of chess. Between the two of them was a chessboard-sized gossip array. The top is dotted with fluorescent dots, dotted all over the place. One of them was looking down and calculating, and the other was silent in the shadows for an unknown amount of time, and finally couldn't sit still, snorted impatiently, and said, "It's been five or six days, and you can't even push out the direction?"
The person on the other side raised his face from the array, but this person was Gu Wentian, the torture hall envoy of the Jade Palace. There was no annoyance on his handsome face, but he smiled slightly, and said:
"Your Highness is angry. This is the handiwork of Qin Zunyang, the ancestor of the Jade Palace, how can it be so easy? But His Highness can rest assured. Within ten days, the subordinates will definitely present the head of His Highness's opponent. ”
Although Gu Wentian persuaded him with good words, King Xia on the other side was still a little annoyed: "If this matter fails, your Gu family will not be able to get rid of it!"
In fact, from the first day of the Battle of the Self-Born Monument, he and Gu Wentian had already mixed with more than a thousand outer disciples and entered the Self-Born Monument. It's just that the situation after coming in is different from what he expected.
Originally, he and Gu Wentian's plan was to first find out the geographical situation in this self-born monument, and then lay a formation and various traps on the road that the Cloud King must pass, especially the role of escaping Jane. Otherwise, before he could make a move, King Yun would have escaped with his life, and the matter would have been defeated.
By the time King Yun passed by, he had already been completely arranged, and when he suddenly attacked, King Yun would inevitably have no time to react, and he couldn't escape with a life escape, so he could only die here.
It sounds like fratricide, but it's natural for him. Now what my father means, the two of them have experienced together, which is actually the same as "raising Gu". The sons compete, and the one who survives in the end is naturally the strongest one.
King Yun is a weak person, he doesn't value authority, and even takes the initiative to guard the southeast sea frontier, and it seems that he has long been away from the whirlpool of this rivalry. But in fact, in the past ten years, the two states of Jinyu have been thriving, so that King Yun has gradually established his prestige among the people in the south. This is a huge burden for the father who is a king. This situation forced him to either take his second son as his heir, or sooner or later he had to solve this trouble.
So Haoqi calculated that even if he killed Haozheng "by mistake" in this experience, his father must be punished on the surface, but he was actually happy in his heart. At that time, he competed with his eldest brother Hongwang, and he also had more chips.
What's more, there is no need for him to "make the wrong hand", and the dirty work is naturally done by Gu Wentian's gang. Gu Wentian was able to take this opportunity to bring down the Lian sisters and completely seize control of the Jade Palace, which was also a big boost to his future battle with the Rainbow King, which could be described as a great joy.
It was a perfect idea, but as soon as the battle began, they immediately encountered their first problem. Gu Wentian had already prepared various arrays to isolate and escape Jane. But when he came, he found that it was difficult to find a place to set up.
Gu Wentian naturally participated in the Battle of the Self-Born Monument many years ago. But at that time, he was just a foundation building disciple with a double foundation, and his talent had not yet been highlighted. He only fought in the Boundary for a while, and was quickly eliminated, and did not go to the Root Cave.
Only the root cave is the final battle. When there are only two Wu Yuan left on the Immortal Monument List, everyone will be automatically teleported to the root cave. Therefore, the root cave is the only place where you can set up an ambush. Unable to find the location of the root cave, all plans were in vain.
Gu Wentian originally thought that as long as he entered the self-born stele, it would not be difficult to figure out where the root cave was. But what surprised him was that the entire self-generated monument was not as simple as a static and motionless separation, but the four directions and six combinations of heaven and earth were constantly rotating, arranging and combining, and the geographical orientation was constantly changing.
Under this kind of change, even if you set up an earth-shattering array, it is useless. Not to mention that he couldn't have enough array treasures to cover the entire Separation Realm, even if he could, the constantly changing geography of the Separation Realm would destroy the formation of the Great Array.
And now if he wants to find the root cave, he doesn't have to calculate a fixed direction, but to calculate the law of the whole change. The difficulty has increased by several orders of magnitude. But he has been thinking calmly about countermeasures, and he didn't let this little prince know about it.
He has always done things with light and dark, right and strange, and never gambled. Even if this road doesn't work, there are other means to achieve the same goal, so he is not as anxious as this little prince.
But if he continued to deduce it so forcibly, he estimated that it would take another ten days to have a result. I just don't know if this war is almost over at that time. Thinking of this, he took out the Law Eye Jade Jane and looked at the battle situation of the remaining first-level martial arts in this side.
Although the Dharma Eye Jade Slip can mark the location of each outer disciple, it cannot cross borders. And he is now in the realm of the Self-Born Monument, and what he can see is just all the outer disciples in this Self-Born Monument.
Seeing this situation, Gu Wentian was a little disappointed. Ten days or so is almost the time for the decisive battle. At that time, the location of the root cave was calculated, and I am afraid it will be too late to set up the formation.
But on this jade slip, there was a slowly moving trajectory of Wu Yuan that caught his attention.
Usually teams move randomly around the map and fight each other. There are also some weak teams that have obviously combined to try to make up for the weakness in strength by playing more and less. Others simply stand still, lurking somewhere, waiting for an opportunity.
There was only one team that didn't have any encounters along the way, but was moving according to a certain pattern. It seems that the purpose is not to rank at all, but to find something. Moreover, Gu Wentian observed for a period of time and found that many key nodes of the path they took were secretly in line with his own calculations.
"How is this possible?" Although he didn't pretend in front of King Xia, he was secretly surprised in his heart. In this way, not only is he calculating the location of the root cave, but there are also people in this team who are doing the same thing as him. And depending on what the other party does, it is even more accurate than your own calculations.
This peculiar team is none other than Gou Zhu Wu Yuan!
"Could it be that Lian Ping came in early?" he imagined this possibility. But he immediately denied it. Although Lian Ping has deep strength, he has no talent in matchmaking. With her ability, she would never be able to calculate such a path. Thinking of the formation master, he thought of the woman named Huang Lu in the Gou Xuan Wu Courtyard. This woman actually set up a five-nail sunken mountain formation in the battle of Dragon Skeleton Valley, and once suppressed him at the bottom of the mountain.
But even if she was proficient in the formation technique, to calculate the entire piece of separation set up by Qin Zunyang, she would need to consume a huge amount of divine thoughts. With her as a mere foundation triple cultivator, how could her divine sense be able to support it?
He couldn't figure out the trick for a while. But he's a guy who is good at improvising and following the trend. Thinking of this, he wiped it with his hand, and the array disk in front of him had disappeared, and he was included in the immortal lotus. Then he got up and said:
"Your Highness, there's no need to wait, we can leave now. ”
Xia Wang Haoqi has been nesting in the cave for five or six days, and he has already endured it to the limit. Suddenly, when I heard him say that he could go, I was stunned: "Oh, could it be that you have already calculated the location of the root cave?"
Gu Wentian smiled: "Although I haven't calculated it yet, someone is already leading the way." ”
......
Six days ago, as soon as He Cangshi and Cha Fei and the four of them entered the Zisheng Monument, they fell into a wilderness and quagmire. On all sides, there is a boundless barren grass and a staggered water surface. The water here is full of mud, and bubbles are bubbling from time to time. The air is filled with the smell of corruption. The blood-colored sky shrouded the four fields, and it was a scene of slaughter.
He Cangshi was excited in his heart. As long as you enter the Self-Born Monument, the previous restriction of not being able to imprint the Purple Gold Pill has been lifted. No matter how good a baby is, it is only his own if he is imprinted with his own soul breath, otherwise he will be taken away by others at any time, and he will only add trouble to himself.
There was no one but them in the mire, and it was a perfect time. There is no need for He Cangshi to talk about it, these four people invariably took out the Zijin Pill and held it in their hands, and their hands trembled.
In fact, even if they directly use the escape Jane to go out after imprinting the Zijin Pill, they will make a lot of money by taking the penultimate place. The Bauhinia Pill can summon a person who is at least a Void Pill Consummation, and it is not possible to even reach the Purple Mansion's combat power. From now on, even if they leave the Jade Palace, it is good to go to a mountain alone to become a casual cultivator.
Of course, the Zijin Pill was given by the torture hall after all. They at least have to work hard, and it's too unexplainable to hold the Zijin Pill and win the penultimate first place.
He Cangshi was the first to pinch his finger and drip a drop of blood on the purple-gold shell of the Zijin Dan.
If it is the same as a normal branding magic weapon, this drop of blood will seep into the Dan, leaving a clear mark on the Dan, and in this imprint, there will be a wisp of soul breath associated with his divine consciousness. But oddly enough, this didn't happen.
Instead, the purple-gold shell melted like sugar touching water, revealing a dark and obscure aura inside. It seems that this so-called Zijin Pill is actually just a thin shell on the outside. As for what's inside, no one knows.
The shell cracked, and the aura immediately poured out like a splash of ink, and in an instant, it dyed Minoru Kakura's hand black.
He Cangshi was shocked and threw away the "Purple Gold Pill" in his hand, but it was already too late!
