Chapter 337 Digging a Hole
Sun Xuanhua said that people have eyes and formations have eyes.
Only with eyeballs in human eye sockets can we see.
The formation can only operate if there is a spiritual stone in the formation eye.
But human eyeballs are protected by eyelids, so naturally the array eyes also have corresponding protection.
Zhu Yun has broken through many formations, and is as powerful as the Fire Lingzhu Island in the sea.
It's just that he has always broken through the formation wall instead of starting from within the formation.
Therefore, his experience is not enough.
Fortunately, when learning the seven methods from Sun Xuanhua, Zhu Yun not only studied them carefully, but also learned to draw inferences from one instance and think on his own.
But at this time, that was the case.
"The formation eye is the key to the formation, so when it is far away, my spiritual sense can sense it, but not when it is close."
Zhu Yun had something in mind and put himself into the scene when the formation was being set up.
The most commonly used ones recently, besides the Nine Turns and Nine Suns Formation, are the self-destruction formation and the spirit-guiding formation.
The Nine Revolutions and Nine Suns Formation is usually deployed with instant release of spirit stones. Most of the changes are cut out based on the actual situation, and it is basically used immediately after being deployed, so there is no need to cover up the formation eyes.
The nine spiritual stones are the nine formation eyes.
When using the self-destruction array, especially when several self-destruction arrays are connected, Zhu Yun always uses it as a trap, so the spirit-guiding array is needed as a mechanism to activate it.
At this time, when I think about setting up my own formation, I would subconsciously do something to cover it up, but when I was in someone else's formation, I couldn't think of it for a while.
Zhu Yun secretly laughed, this is what the so-called authorities are confused about.
With a chuckle, Zhu Yun gathered his spiritual consciousness and poured it under his feet.
But still found nothing.
"Hmph, dig it out and take a look!"
Formation attainments are not only reflected in the speed of deployment and the number of formations mastered, but the more important point is how to prevent the formation eyes from being discovered.
Compared to the previous one, this point is even more important.
Just imagine, if you set up a mysterious formation that reaches the sky, the formation will be easily discovered by others.
So, even if this formation is a killing formation, so what?
The formation is another weakness.
In most formations, if the formation eye is destroyed, then this formation is equivalent to one person having one arm cut off.
Even if it is not destroyed, its function is greatly lost.
For people like Tang Tiangang who entered the Tao through formations, Zhu Yun couldn't even discover how many formations there were in his hall.
Not to mention, the huddled formation from outside the main hall to the door of the City Lord's Mansion.
This was also the reason why Zhu Yun did not seek revenge against Tang Tiangang at this time to vent his anger for being hunted to the Hundred Thousand Mountains.
At the moment, Zhu Yun has not found the formation eye, but he is not in a hurry.
Although the people who set up the formation were very powerful, Zhu Yun felt that they were still not as strong as Tang Tiangang.
In this way, it is at most the level of the foundation building period. I just haven't found the key point.
Moreover, the position of the formation eye has been determined before, and the worst case scenario is to dig it out!
Generally speaking, phantom formations are only used to trap people and have no real attack power. It is for this reason that Zhu Yun is so unscrupulous.
If it was a killing formation or something like that, Zhu Yun would never dare to have such an idea.
Using the spiritual sword in his hand as a shovel, Zhu Yun dug under his feet.
Who would have thought that the soil under his feet was extremely thick. He shoveled hard, but only a small amount of soil was shoveled out.
But Zhu Yun was not impatient and continued digging downwards.
After digging for about a stick of incense, Zhu Yun suddenly noticed movement coming from directly in front of him.
When he looked up, he discovered that Wu Neng and Wu Nan were a hundred steps away!
Behind them, there was still a surging horde of monster beasts!
Seeing this scene, he suddenly understood. He grinned and said to himself: "It is indeed an illusion array. No wonder I didn't hear any movement when I was not too far away."
You know, this beast wave was running against him before, but now it is coming towards him. It is obvious that this phantom formation can also produce the ability of ghosts to break walls.
At the same time, Zhu Yun knew that this formation was meant to trap people until they died of exhaustion!
After understanding the function of the formation, Zhu Yun didn't panic anymore.
He waved to Wu Neng and Wu Nan who were running towards them, and said, "Don't panic, fly up and hide!"
Hearing Zhu Yun's voice, Wu Neng quickly looked over. In just one or two breaths, they were only dozens of steps apart.
Wu Nan was surprised and said: "Fellow Daoist Chen, aren't you lagging behind? Why are you in front of us?"
Zhu Yun did not answer, but urged: "Hurry up and take off, otherwise, when are you planning to run?"
After saying that, Zhu Yun himself stood up on his sword and soared into the sky.
Wu Nan gritted his teeth and used his long sword to fly to Zhu Yun's side.
Just when he was about to let the tide of beasts rush past his feet, he discovered that as long as the monsters reached the position under his feet, they would quickly disappear!
Wu Nan and Wu Neng were both extremely surprised by this sudden change!
"Why...why is the monster missing?"
The two looked at each other, and then looked at Zhu Yun in disbelief.
Zhu Yun shrugged and said: "I don't know either, but why didn't you fly before? If you had flown earlier, you wouldn't have to be chased so hard."
Wu Nan smiled bitterly and said: "Fellow Daoist Chen, wielding the sword consumes too much spiritual energy. I don't dare to abuse it. I keep it just in case!"
Zhu Yun's heart moved, and he suddenly realized something.
The person who set up the formation can also play with people's hearts!
The first level is known for its large number of monsters.
So, he set up this formation. If anyone entered the formation, they would see a tide of beasts.
If you look closely at this tide of beasts, you won't be able to tell the truth from the fake ones. In desperation, a normal monk would choose to run away.
For example, Wu Nan had to take Wu Neng with him, but also had to worry about the consumption of spiritual power.
Even when some monks fly up, they only want to stay away from here, but they never know that as long as they stop, the monster will disappear as soon as it rushes towards them.
This formation, seemingly ordinary, is actually very mysterious!
Zhu Yun had a vague realization in his heart, 70% true, 30% false...
Maybe in the future, I can make a virtual formation myself, and maybe it will have miraculous effects.
"Fellow Daoist Chen, have you discovered the mystery of this formation a long time ago?"
At this time, Wu Neng spoke.
He blushed when he remembered that he had desperately called Zhu Yun to help.
Fortunately, he was still the head of the clan. Not only was he taken away by his subordinates, but he also had to ask outsiders for help.
"When I asked you to hold on, I found some clues, but I can't be sure whether these monsters are real. What if I ask you to stop and these monsters knock you down?"
Zhu Yun asked on the surface, but felt helpless in his heart.
Sangou said that he smelled the scent of monsters. Could it be possible that this illusion also happened?
He knew that when the illusory formation was deployed to the extreme, it could indeed be as real as the real thing.
But Zhu Yun felt that it was absolutely impossible for these monsters to disappear in an instant!
So, besides the formation, there is also a tide of beasts!
So, could it also be the method used by those who set up the formation?
As long as you get out of the formation, you will encounter a real tide of beasts!
This is used to allow people who accidentally discovered that the beast tide is an illusion, and when faced with the real beast tide, they still respond with fake things!
Therefore, he will die here!
Zhu Yun is not sure, because the most important thing right now is to break the formation!
"You guys come down first to rest and recover your spiritual power. I still have things to do!"
After saying that, he landed first and stood at the previous position, continuing to hold the spirit sword and start digging the hole.
Wu Nan was indeed very tired, but Wu Neng had hardly used up much. He didn't need to recover, but he walked up to Zhu Yun and asked: "Fellow Daoist Chen, what are you digging a hole for?"
"Break the formation!"
Zhu Yun thrust his sword into the soil, pried it hard, and pulled out a handful of soil.
"This formation is so big, how can you dig a hole and break it? I don't believe it!"
Wu Neng grew up with Lin Wen and heard many anecdotes about the Pipa realm. Although the formations were not unfamiliar to him, they were not unfamiliar.
Because there is also a formation in the house where Lin Wen lives.
"It's none of my business whether you believe it or not!"
Zhu Yun rolled his eyes, then threw the sword over and said, "I seem to remember Mr. Lin telling me to let you enter the Demon Refining Tower and listen to my command! Well, I'm tired of digging, you follow this hole Dig for a while!”
Wu Neng was dumbfounded. He wished he could give himself a big mouth and recover properly. However, he got curious and asked more questions. It turned out that the dignified clan leader had to do such a job!
But Zhu Yun had already spoken, and he had no choice.
He had no choice but to hold the long sword and imitate Zhu Yun's movements and start digging holes.
But after digging for more than an hour, even Wu Nan's spiritual power had been restored, and nothing was dug out.
"Fellow Daoist Chen, you are not playing tricks on me, are you?"
Wu Neng frowned and said while leaning on his spiritual sword.
People are not tired, but their hearts are tired.
The ground is too difficult to dig!
Zhu Yun did not respond, but touched his chin and thought over and over again.
When Wu Neng was digging, he wasn't just watching the show.
Instead, use this hole as the center, measure the distance, and then use your spiritual sense to explore.
But the problem is, nothing is found!
This was true even when he stood in the position where he discovered the abnormality!
"Could it be that...this array of eyes is also hidden with a magic array?"
Suddenly, this idea came to Zhu Yun's mind, and he immediately thought of a countermeasure, and a smile emerged from the corner of his mouth.
Seeing this, Wu Neng thought he didn't have to dig anymore, so he stepped forward with a look of joy and respectfully handed the spirit sword back with both hands.
Zhu Yun took the spirit sword and hung it on his waist with a smile, then took out a hammer from his storage bag and stuffed it into Wu Neng's hand!
"Clan Chief Wu, I am optimistic about you, now try this!"
Wu Neng looked at Zhu Yun, then at the small hammer in his hand, and cursed in his heart!
Digging a hole with a hammer?
You dig a hammer!
