Chapter 190 Underground Ruins and Broken Formation
It turned out to be a very ordinary looking stone.
Yang Che dug it out immediately.
The stone was about three feet long and two inches thick. It was broken on the top and bottom, but quite neat on the left and right.
After studying it carefully for a while, Yang Che found that the stone must be mixed with some special materials, otherwise it would not be so hard that even Jian Si could not pierce it.
With a piece of moonstone in hand, the small and cramped space under the ground suddenly became bright.
Yang Che looked at the stone again and found that there were strange patterns and symbols like words engraved on it.
However, these characters are not the common characters in the current cultivation world, and Yang Che could not understand them.
After careful exploration and study of the strange patterns on it, Yang Che vaguely judged that these patterns seemed to be some kind of road map.
However, because the stone was not complete, it was hard to tell.
Yang Che deduced that the stone should be some kind of stone tablet or something on a stone wall.
There should have been a very complete large piece, but for some reason, it was broken into several pieces.
Thinking of this, Yang Che collected the stone piece, and then, driven by curiosity, he immediately began to dig, hoping to dig out another piece of such a stone piece.
However, after digging around for a long time, he found nothing.
Just when Yang Che was about to give up, the stone wall he had just dug, perhaps because the bottom was hollowed out too much, suddenly made a strange "boom" and collapsed.
After the collapse, a black hole was exposed, and gusts of cold wind kept blowing out from it.
There was a faint smell of rot and mold in the cold wind.
Yang Che's consciousness spread out, wanting to explore it first, but found that once the consciousness entered it, it was like falling into a quagmire and swamp, and it could not go deeper at all.
"There is a formation restriction!"
Yang Che was slightly surprised.
I didn't expect that there would be a mysterious black hole so deep underground, and there would be a formation restriction.
This made Yang Che suddenly feel a little itchy.
Not only was he curious about this black hole, but he also wanted to break the formation and test his attainments in formation.
Moreover, it was so deep underground that the red-robed young man would probably not be able to find it again.
Thinking of this, Yang Che weighed the pros and cons and finally decided to go in and explore.
However, he was still very careful to set up six formations outside the hole first, spending a lot of spirit stones.
These six formations were two illusion formations, two trapping formations, and two killing formations.
There were formations within formations, and in the trapping formations, Yang Che also put in several kinds of poisonous smoke that he had refined.
In the killing formation, Yang Che also deliberately placed more than a dozen sky thunder beads.
If the red-robed young man in the early stage of the Nascent Soul really found this place, these six formations would definitely cost him a lot of effort.
With a long sigh, Yang Che calmed down and stepped into the black hole.
Holding the moonstone in his hand, Yang Che soon discovered that there was an underground ruin inside.
As far as the eye can see, there are collapsed halls, ruined pavilions, and some strange collapsed buildings that Yang Che can't tell the name of.
Even in the corners of these broken walls, you can see a lot of shriveled or broken skeletons.
Yang Che took a step forward and walked a short distance, and was blocked by an invisible restriction.
And this restriction was the formation restriction that made his previous exploration of the spiritual sense extremely slow and unable to penetrate.
Yang Che reached out and touched it, and began to sense it carefully.
After a long time, he slowly withdrew his palm, looked up and down carefully, and his face kept showing a thoughtful look.
Breaking the formation is extremely boring.
Without enough experience accumulation, it is difficult to see the means and hidden hands of a formation in a very short time.
Therefore, Yang Che can only constantly compare what he has learned to verify one by one, and try several common formation-breaking techniques taught to him by Tianxie Ziyin one by one.
More than half a month later.
Yang Che sat cross-legged on the ground with a little fatigue, and kept pinching his hands, casting strange golden runes on the invisible restriction in front of him.
With a sound of "hum".
After a rapid and intertwined flow of air at the invisible restriction, a faint gray light curtain slowly appeared.
Seeing this, Yang Che finally showed a trace of joy on his face, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
After trying for so many days, it finally began to work.
As the saying goes, "everything is difficult at the beginning", the most fearful thing about breaking the formation is to have no direction.
Now that the "direction" has been found, even if it takes some time, this formation can be broken.
In the following time, Yang Che continued to concentrate on breaking the formation.
...
More than a month passed.
On this day, when Yang Che spent two medium-grade spirit stones and was extremely tired and cast the last golden rune on this gray light curtain.
The entire light curtain suddenly flickered.
Then, like water waves, it slowly separated bit by bit, revealing a main road paved with bluestone.
At this point, after spending nearly two months, this formation restriction was finally broken by Yang Che alone.
During this period, Yang Che tried all the methods of breaking the formation more than once, and used almost all he had learned in his life. In the end, after continuous deduction and clever rearrangement and combination, he broke the formation restriction.
A sense of incomparable pride, satisfaction and accomplishment surged in my heart.
It seemed that all the fatigue and consumption were no longer important.
Yang Che's attainment in formations was naturally greatly improved again in this battle.
It also made Yang Che realize the key role played by deduction ability.
And the deduction ability is very dependent on the spiritual consciousness, which forced Yang Che to face the fact that his spiritual consciousness was weak, and he felt a little bitter.
"It seems that the refining of the soul pill can't be delayed any longer."
Yang Che muttered to himself, and then stepped into the bluestone main road of the underground ruins.
What came to his face was simplicity and desolation.
Looking at the corpses in the corners that seemed to have suffered great fear in their lives, Yang Che inexplicably felt a sense of sadness spreading in the ruins.
Along this bluestone main road, every time Yang Che walked a distance, he felt as if time was flying behind him.
This magical and strange feeling made Yang Che a little addicted to it and couldn't extricate himself.
When he walked along the long bluestone main road and came to a dilapidated building that looked like an altar, Yang Che felt like he had walked through a long river of time.
Suddenly, the bluestone main road behind him disappeared, and everything was a little different from when he came.
Yang Che's face changed slightly, but he soon calmed down again.
He recognized that this was the barrier in the formation.
Yang Che accidentally triggered it after walking along the bluestone main road and entered the barrier.
The barrier is a formation restriction with conditions set in advance.
After being triggered, if the set conditions are met, you can enter and exit freely, so Yang Che soon stopped worrying.
At this moment, he was already standing on the edge of the altar.
It was the same as the altar that the blood coffin cave at the bottom of the river led to in the Mist Hidden Realm.
It's just that this altar has been destroyed for a long time, and it is impossible to see what function it has.
But soon, Yang Che's heart suddenly moved, his pupils condensed, staring at the center of the huge altar, and his heart suddenly surged with huge waves.
