Chapter 753 Heartbreak
Chapter 753: Heart-piercing
The old man put the white chess piece in his hand on the chessboard, and then picked up seven or eight white chess pieces and placed them in different positions on the chessboard. It looked messy, but Ye Xiaochuan could tell at a glance that this was a one-element chaos formation.
It was relatively new for Ye Xiaochuan to deduce the formation on the chessboard. He wanted to see what the old man was going to do.
The old man Zhuxin asked, "What kind of formation is this?"
Ye Xiaochuan smiled and said, "Senior, you underestimated me, didn't you? This is the One Yuan Chaos Formation. The so-called chaos is nothingness. The world is not yet created. The world is turbid. There is no beginning or end, but the beginning and the end are united, which is called Tai Chi."
The old man Zhuxin nodded approvingly and said, "Yes, it seems that you are not boasting. You really know these formations. I wonder how you can break it if you fall into this formation?"
Ye Xiaochuan immediately shook his head and said, "I can't break it, at least I can't break it now. If a few hundred years pass, when I have made some achievements in formation, I may be able to break the chaos formation. Now, I can only watch and talk, but I don't have the ability to break it."
This is the truth. Although he knows how to arrange the chaos formation and knows the position of the chaos formation, knowing it does not mean that he can break it. He can see it clearly from the outside. Once he falls into this formation, Ye Xiaochuan has no confidence that he can break it in a short time.
The old man Zhuxin nodded again. The more he looked at this kid, the more he liked him. The mystery of the formation is the unity of heaven, earth and man. It is very mysterious. The three are indispensable. In the eyes of the old man Zhuxin, this is the power of the universe and the eternal power.
Although this kid knows many ancient strange formations, he is very young and lazy. He doesn't take this seriously. He is like a beggar carrying a mountain of gold on his back, but he doesn't understand the value of the mountain of gold.
The old man Zhuxin began to arrange the formation on the chessboard again, deliberately making a few wrong positions. As a result, Ye Xiaochuan saw it.
Ye Xiaochuan put a few wrong pieces in their proper positions and said, "Senior, you are testing me. This is the Six Combinations, which refers to the relationship between the six earthly branches. There is also the Six Instruments, which are the six heavenly stems of Shu, Yi, Geng, Xin, Ren and Gui. You made two mistakes in the six positions. Don't think I can't see it."
The old man Zhuxin was overjoyed and laid out several formations on the chessboard. The formations became more and more difficult and advanced, but Ye Xiaochuan could always interpret them correctly. Moreover, Ye Xiaochuan could correct the misalignment and tell the secret of the changes, which made the old man Zhuxin gain a lot in a short time.
At first, the old man Zhuxin only laid out a dozen chess pieces, and gradually the formations became more and more advanced, two-color chess pieces, three-color chess pieces, and finally nine different colors of chess pieces. The whole chessboard was like a densely covered with stars. The nine-color chess pieces seemed to have no connection, but in fact, the changes inside were endless, implying the way of heaven and earth.
The old man Zhuxin said proudly: "Boy, you can interpret the formation I laid before, what do you think of this formation?"
He suddenly looked like an old naughty boy, showing his treasure to others. When he saw Ye Xiaochuan speechless for a while, he became more proud.
Ye Xiaochuan touched his chin and looked at the chessboard in front of him, then looked at the old man Zhuxin, and said after a long time: "Senior, you have good skills, I admire you. It is really amazing that you can combine the two different formations of Eight Gates and Nine Stars. The formation you laid before, I can only see the general idea, I can't crack it, but I can crack this formation."
The old man Zhuxin, who was very proud just now, suddenly changed his face and said: "You can see that this is a fusion of the two formations of Eight Gates and Nine Stars? Can you crack it? Impossible, this formation was created by me back then, Yunyazi was trapped in this formation and couldn't get out, how can you crack it?"
Ye Xiaochuan didn't hear anything else, only heard the three words Yunyazi.
He stood up and stepped back several steps, looking at the withered old man in front of him in surprise.
He lost his voice and said, "You, you, you are not the old man Zhuxin, right?"
The old man Zhuxin seemed very angry and said, "Boy, don't ask who I am first. Just now you said that you can break this formation, I don't believe it. If you can't break this formation, see how I will deal with you!"
That's right, Ye Xiaochuan shouted in his heart. This old man must be the legendary figure Zhuxin. He cursed himself for being stupid. In fact, he should have thought of it a long time ago. There is absolutely no one else in the world who is so proficient in so many formations except Zhuxin!
Originally, he was very casual in deducing the formation with this old man. Now that he knew the old man's identity, Ye Xiaochuan felt his legs trembling and his heart pounding. He had only one thought, escape.
He turned around and ran, but it seemed that he was attached to an invisible wall and was immediately bounced back. He was dizzy and unstable.
The old man Zhuxin said: "Boy, if you don't break this formation, don't even think about leaving!"
Ye Xiaochuan wanted to cry but had no tears. He had been in the same room with the old man Zhuxin for the past few hours. He heard that this old guy killed people like crazy and his Taoism was terrifyingly high. There were not many masters in the realm of immortality left in the world. He was definitely not able to beat him!
He stood up while rubbing his aching nose and said bitterly: "Senior Zhuxin, please don't tease me. I know I was wrong and shouldn't show off my skills in front of you. I came here just to rescue my friend who was captured by Mo Jiukui. Please let me go."
The most proud work of the old man Zhuxin in his life was to merge the eight gates and nine stars. It was this formation that trapped Yun Yazi back then. Now that Ye Xiaochuan said it was useless, how could he let it go?
He said: "I have set up a magic formation in this house. You can't get out. If you break this formation, you can do whatever you want."
Ye Xiaochuan hurriedly said: "Can you let my friend go?"
The old man Zhuxin said: "It's just a matter of one word."
Ye Xiaochuan said: "It's a deal! You can't cheat!"
There's nothing to say about this. He has been thinking about how to rescue Baili Yuan. Now, the status of the old man Zhuxin in the Demon Sect is comparable to Yunyazi's status in the Cangyun Sect. If he says a word, who dares to disobey the Demon Sect's leaders?
These veteran old guys love face the most. What they say is what they say, and it counts.
Ye Xiaochuan immediately sat down in front of the chessboard again. At first, he didn't know who the old man in front of him was. Now that he knows, he naturally doesn't dare to be too presumptuous.
The old man Zhuxin said: "Yun Yazi was trapped in this formation for three days and still couldn't find a way out. I'll give you six days..."
Ye Xiaochuan said: "This is really not necessary, old senior Zhuxin, I can break it in a moment."
Ye Xiaochuan was not sure that he could break other formations in a short time, but he could be sure of the Eight Gates and Nine Stars Formation in front of him.
Although this formation was created by the old man Zhuxin himself through research, combining the Eight Gates Formation and the Nine Stars Formation, he was not the first person to do so. Situ Feng was more than 6,000 years earlier than him.
