Chapter Seventy-Seven: Determination [Third Update]
On the way back, Wei Tianchong couldn't help but ask Tang Zai: "This mission is obviously aimed at me, Tang Zai, are you really sure to help me get the first place again?"
"Why, don't believe me?" Tang Zheng asked rhetorically.
Wei Tianchong scratched his scalp a little embarrassedly: "That's not it, it's just that this time it's not like there is no chance to meet in the valley, it's really a separate battle, if you have the ability to go through the sky, I'm afraid it will be difficult to help me......"
"You'd be wrong. Tang Zai patted him on the shoulder and said, "Although the Nine Palaces Lost Heaven Array is fighting separately, it doesn't mean that you and I don't have a chance to intersect. ”
"Well, what does this mean?" "Shi Meng was also a smile: "Could it be that we can still meet in the array?"
Tang Zheng nodded: "That's right, it's just that the chance of meeting is very small." Don't ask so much now, just rest well, nourish your spirits, and by the way, study the way to deal with the phantom array, and leave the rest to me, and I'll tell you the specific arrangements when the time comes. ”
When the two of them saw his words, they couldn't help but believe that Tang Zheng really had a way, so they left with confidence.
It wasn't until the two of them left that Tang Zheng's face became gloomy.
Only he knew the truth, and he was not sure about the task given by Nanbaicheng. Nanbaicheng almost isolated all the help he could bring to Wei Tianchong to the greatest extent, and in this case, there was very little he could do for Wei Tianchong.
However, he could not say.
If he says it, Wei Tianchong will lose confidence, and giving up confidence is equivalent to giving up hope and giving up victory.
Tang Zheng can accept failure, but he can't accept giving up!
"Nanbaicheng ......" At this moment, he stood there, chewing on the name in his mouth, and his eyes were already flashing with a scorching light: "The more you don't want us to succeed, the more I want to fight for you." Quarantine us...... It's a pity that you haven't quarantined enough!"
After finishing speaking, Tang Zheng had resolutely walked towards Lingmiaofang.
Lingmiaofang was already very lively at this time.
With the release of the third mission, many students have come here to buy all kinds of formation-breaking, void-breaking, and delusion-breaking magic weapons or rune paper, and carry out the most difficult backup battle before the battle, and the price of items has also risen.
However, Tang Zheng didn't buy any array-breaking materials, but instead bought some array materials such as Phantom Heart Grass and Confusion Divine Incense. Since no one buys this kind of material, the price is not too outrageous.
After spending all the money, Tang Zheng returned to Taoranju with the materials.
Putting the materials into the formation diagram one by one, Tang Zai said: "Yiyi, come, do my brother a favor, I'm afraid I'm going to have to work hard for you." ”
"Do you want to pee again?" The well-behaved little Yiyi saw that Tang Zheng seemed to be preparing some kind of formation.
"No......" After a pause, Tang Zheng replied, "I need your blood this time." ”
—————————
Early the next morning, the students went to the hanging platform, and there was already a waiting boat in the middle of the immortal.
Just like last time, everyone boarded the ship, but this time there was no secret sneak attack like last time.
After getting on the boat, the big ship flew all the way towards Wind Demon Island.
Wind Demon Island is far away, and even the Immortal Family Law Ship has to fly for three days to arrive. Fortunately, the fairy boat is huge and there are many cabins, so students don't have to worry about having no place to rest.
What is different from the past is that because they completed the task independently, everyone no longer has the same atmosphere of working together as before, but everyone has made calculations, and the atmosphere has become weird.
Some students who are not strong enough to pass through the formation road are even more fantasizing about whether they have a chance to soar into the sky.
And for Wei Tianchong, this may be his most difficult day.
Because until now, Tang Zheng has not given any answer on how he can help him, for two days in a row, Tang Zheng locked himself in the house and did not appear, no matter how Wei Tianchong asked, he only said that the time had not come, and waited.
This made Wei Tianchong a little suspicious, if Tang Zheng had no choice, he deliberately delayed himself.
But thinking about his consistent performance, he finally told himself to believe in Tang Zheng.
Time passed quietly in the middle of the journey.
On the third day, the fairy boat entered the endless sea.
The Endless Sea is located south of Wenxin, and the sea area is vast, occupying almost the entire Qixia Realm.
Unlike the earth, the Qixia Realm is not a spherical shape, but a semicircle, and although the sea is an extension of the territory, it has its own boundaries.
Protecting the Boundary.
This is one thing that countless great powers of our ancestors have already explored and confirmed - there is an end to the world realm!
This made Tang Zheng also have a lot of confusion.
If you are still in the universe, then the space you are in should not be a hemisphere. If you're on the surface, where is the other half?
But if you are not in the universe, why can you still see the sun, stars and moon in the sky?
Where the hell are they?
What shape do they have?
These Tang Tribulations were all ignorant, and even the teachers who taught did not give answers to these questions.
The only thing Tang Zheng knew was that those stars and moons were all outside the Gangfeng.
Gangfeng is the boundary wall!
The fairy boat is still flying on the sea, and it is difficult for the students to go to sea, so they have walked to the deck to overlook the waves and the sea of clouds.
Tang Zheng gradually put away his thoughts, turned back and entered Wei Tianchong's room.
At this time, Wei Tianchong was instructing the puppet to pour tea for himself, but it was not that the dream was not served by anyone, he was sitting next to him at this time, but Wei Tianchong used this to exercise his ability to accurately control the puppet.
This made Tang Zheng also feel relieved.
If it was the past, facing this big problem, Wei Tianchong might have given up a long time ago, right?
The battle without returning to the valley really made him grow a lot and understand a lot.
Seeing Tang Zheng coming in at this moment, Wei Tianchong was overjoyed: "Tang Zheng, you are finally here, are you going to tell me what to do?"
He was so excited that he didn't control the puppet properly, and the puppet's hand slipped and the cup fell out of his hand.
Tang Zheng stretched out his feet, put it under the cup, picked up the cup and caught it, and said with a smile: "Every time there is a big event, young master, whether it's good news or bad news, the sky is not shocked, and my heart is as clear as ice." ”
"Yes, I know. Wei Tianchong nodded seriously.
However, the next moment he still walked over and said, "This Wind Demon Island is also almost here, how are you going to help me get the first place, you should also say? In the past two days, I have been tormented by this matter so much that I don't want to think about it, and I can't even cultivate listlessly." ”
"That's exactly what I want you to experience. Tang Zheng said seriously: "The reason why I haven't told you all this time is that my first wish is to let you feel this torment." ”
"Feeling tormented?" Wei Tian said.
"That's right!" Tang Zai replied: "The Nine Palaces Mystery Array is an Psychedelic Array, and all Illusion Arrays start from the heart. If you want to break the illusion array, you must first settle your mind! Your temperament is too impetuous, and it is very easy to be taken advantage of by the illusion array, so you need to polish it. The heart is as clear as ice, and the sky is not shocked, this is not to say. ”
Wei Tianchong's face turned pale: "I understand!"
"That's good. Tang Zheng sat down at this time: "Then now, I'll tell you about Ji Lu's plan." ”
The Nine Palaces Maze Array itself is a psychedelic array, the Nine Palaces Heart Ring is the core of the Nine Palaces Maze Array, and the Sea Heart Stone is the treasure of the town island like a heavenly monument, the core center of the big array. Entering the heart ring of the Nine Palaces means that the formation is successfully broken.
However, the Great Array and the Nine Palaces Heart Ring are not closely connected, in fact, there is a not too long path between the two - the Demon Extermination Dao.
Strictly speaking, the Demon Slaying Dao was not a part of the Nine Palaces Lost Heaven Array, but just an excessive path, like a step before entering the door, which in itself did not have much significance.
Being able to enter the Demon Slayer Dao means that the breakthrough is successful in a sense, and the Demon Slaying Dao is just an incident, and it is not even worth listing separately.
The problem is that the Demon Slaying Path is the only way.
As long as all students rush out of the big formation, they will inevitably appear on this road......
"In other words, although it is difficult for the students to see each other in the formation, as long as they successfully break through and enter the Demon Destroying Dao, before entering the Nine Palaces Heart Ring, the students will still have a chance to come into contact with each other?"
"That's right!" Tang Zheng replied affirmatively, "But the chance of contact is extremely low. ”
The time for the students to come out of the big array is destined to be different, and it is impossible for anyone to wait for other students after coming to the Demon Slayer Dao, so the encounter in the Demon Slaying Dao only exists in theory, and the actual chance of meeting is extremely low.
Tang Zheng has already said: "The true transmission task is a test of comprehensive ability, and there must be a certain degree of confrontation between students, which even the Southern Hundred Cities cannot change. But if there is confrontation, there will be cooperation, so if you want to deprive me of my help to the young master, you must minimize the chance of possible encounters. That's what the Demon Slayer Does...... Through this path, he achieves the goal of 'satisfying the needs of confrontation' and 'maximizing the possibility of helping each other'. ”
The two suddenly realized, and Wei Tianchong said hatefully: "No wonder they will choose Wind Demon Island as a testing ground. With Tang Zheng's strength, even if he is the first to rush out of the big array, as long as I don't come out, then he won't be able to help me. And if he wants to find us in the great array, it will be even more delayed and difficult. As long as the other students go to the Demon Destroying Dao, Tang Zheng can only watch!"
"That's right, that's what it means!" Tang Zai replied, "Nanbaicheng has made up his mind that he will never give me another chance to help you, he just wants to isolate me." It doesn't matter if I get the first place, as long as you don't get it. ”
Wei Tianchong felt bitter in his heart, in fact, he also knew that he was not angry and was not favored by others, but he was targeted like this, and his self-esteem was humiliated, and he was still extremely sad.
At this moment, he looked at Tang Zheng, gritted his teeth and said, "It's really not good, Tang Zheng, you can win the first place in this third task by yourself." I know that you are good for me, but I don't like me above, it is better for you to get it than to let others go. ”
Tang Zheng shook his head: "If I wanted to get the true inheritance, I would have fought for it a long time ago, so why bother so far." They don't think well of you, but I think very well of you. ”
Are you optimistic about me?
These words made Wei Tianchong stunned immediately.
Tang Zheng's hand was already on Wei Tianchong's shoulder: "Why? Don't believe me? With so many hardships and dangers, our master and servant have all broken through, can you still be defeated in this most difficult and trembling way?" Don't worry, I will definitely make you a true heir." Not only do I want you to become a true legend, but I also want everyone to know that the young master of the Wei family is not a waste. One day, you will become a big name in the world!"
These words made Wei Tianchong completely shocked, and he looked at Tang Zheng blankly.
Tang Zheng smiled: "Believe me, and believe in yourself." ”
Wei Tianchong gasped: "Okay! Tang Zheng, I'll listen to you once, then you tell me, what should I do?"
"It's very simple, just do your best to beat the level, and the others will be left to me. Tang Zheng replied.
"The others handed it over to you?" Wei Tianchong was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses, jumped up, pointed at Tang Zheng and trembled: "Tang Zheng, you ...... You won't be thinking ...... Blocking them all by one, right?"
"It's the only way to go. Tang Zaoyouyou replied: "If you don't want me to be disappointed, just try to rush through the level, don't let me support it for too long." ”
Pass through the Great Array as fast as you can, and then block the Demon Slayer Path so that no one is allowed to pass through.
This is the method that Tang Zheng came up with.
However, this is easier said than done.
Shimeng has shouted: "You can't do it, no one can defeat a thousand, even if you can't do it." ”
"Not necessarily. Tang Zheng replied leisurely, "Have you forgotten our battle with the Frost Elves in the Valley of No Return?"
In the Valley of No Return, the Frost Elf fought against thousands of students on her own, not because her strength had reached the point where she could completely ignore the number, but because she skillfully used the surrounding situation to divide the students with a phantom array, making it impossible for them to see and form a joint force.
For Tang Zheng, as long as he can take the lead in rushing to the Demon Destroying Dao and borrowing time and strength, he may not be able to fight.
"But the Frost Elf is an enlightened spirit in the end, but you are only in the Spirit Lake stage after all. Thousands of students join forces, you can't stop it!" Wei Tianchong shook his head again and again: "This is not a student forest, they will never show mercy when they make a move." ”
"So I also need your efforts, young master...... The faster you come out, the fewer opponents I'll have to face and the less time I'll have to hold up. If you don't want me to block a thousand, then rush out as soon as possible!" Tang Zheng also replied.
He raised a finger: "One hundred, young master, rely on your own efforts, no matter what, you must rush within at least the top hundred." And those who are ahead of you, leave them to me. As long as Tang Tribulation is still there, they don't want to cross the Demon Destroying Dao. ”
Listening to Tang Zheng's sonorous voice, Wei Tianchong also froze.
After a long time, he finally replied: "Don't worry, Tang Zheng, no matter what, I will rush out of the phantom array within a hundred!"
Hearing this, Tang Zheng also smiled with satisfaction.
The reason why he has been delaying until now to tell Wei Tianchong is that in addition to honing his concentration, the more important reason is to let him go straight ahead.
If it drags on for a long time, looking ahead and thinking too much, it will make him lose his sharpness.
At this moment, as the three of them talked, the big ship suddenly shook.
Stormdevil Island has arrived.
