Chapter 1794: One Step Ahead
Tang Feng nodded gently.
As the saying goes, there are specializations in the profession. No matter how powerful or versatile a person is, in some aspects, he cannot compare to professionals in a certain field.
Just like some university professors, their knowledge can be considered first-class and they know a lot of things, but if they are allowed to cook, the meals they cook will definitely not be as good as those of professional cooks.
The same is true for Tang Feng.
He is a high-ranking immortal-level figure, but not all fields can be cultivated to the highest level.
In terms of cause and effect alone, he is no better than a Zen practitioner.
Meditation can see the origin of things through cause and effect, which is also related to their meditation. Their six roots are pure and they cut off the worldly emotions, so that they can sort out the disturbing cause and effect.
And Tang Feng, of course, couldn't let go of the feelings he had, but there was no such detachment as Zen practice.
Therefore, from the perspective of cause and effect, Xuanji and Jueming are indeed stronger than Tang Feng.
Regarding this, Tang Feng admitted that he didn't feel anything ashamed.
After Xue Rui figured out the matter, Xuanji said with regret: "I originally thought that I could contain this evil beast that caused harm to the world, but I failed. All of this is my own cleverness. When Really, really regretful.”
"Actually, you didn't do anything wrong. It's just that you set up the Nine Cauldron Array a little early. If you wait until the monster arrives and the array is set up again, the monster will be like a bird in a cage, and there will be absolutely no chance of escape. But, I can’t blame you. As a Zen cultivator, you can’t wait until the monster actually makes a move before setting up the formation.”
Tang Feng's tone was still light, but it was a great comfort to Xuan Ji's ears.
Indeed, if as Tang Feng said, if you want to ensure that the monster beast can be destroyed, you need to set up the formation after the monster beast appears.
But this monster moves very quickly, and its attacks are extremely ruthless. I am afraid that when it appears, it will harm others.
When the Nine Cauldron Formation is deployed at that time, even if the monster can be destroyed, it will still cost another human life.
Although in the eyes of many people, sacrificing one person and saving many others is the best choice under unavoidable circumstances.
But people who meditate are compassionate. They believe that all living beings are equal and would not harm even an ant. How can they subdue monsters at the expense of human life?
But Tang Feng's words already put a look of expectation on Xuan Ji's face, and he said to Tang Feng: "What does the Immortal Chief mean, is this Nine Cauldron Formation indeed useful?"
Tang Feng nodded and said without hesitation: "It must be useful, but how useful it is depends on the ability of the monster. If it is just a small monster in the elementary realm and wants to be destroyed, It's more than enough, but if the monster's cultivation level is higher than anything else, you can only hurt it. If it's higher than that -"
When he said this, Tang Feng slightly prolonged his words and did not finish his words, but everyone present understood what he meant.
This Nine Cauldron Formation is inherently incomplete, and its power is greatly reduced. If the monster is powerful, it is possible to escape unscathed - which is still good. If the monster is more fierce, I am afraid that even Xuanji and Jueming will be able to do so. Being hurt.
There was a flash of surprise in Jueming's eyes, and at the same time there was a bit of joy.
"However," Tang Feng's tone changed, and he added: "At this time, there are very few monsters with powerful cultivation. Moreover, if this monster is really very powerful, it will have the courage to break through the formation." I won’t stay away if I get ready.”
The implication seems to be some comfort to Xuanji.
Xuanji sighed and said, "Anyway, this evil obstacle has gone away. I'm afraid I won't be able to find it here."
Xue Rui hurriedly said: "Then, elder, can you still tell where it will appear next time?"
Xuan Ji sighed and said: "Prying into the secrets of heaven is something that defies heaven and requires opportunity."
He didn't answer directly, but the meaning of his words was clear, that he couldn't do it anymore.
Xue Rui couldn't help but feel a little disappointed and looked at Tang Feng again.
Tang Feng raised the corners of his mouth, smiled softly, and said: "Since the cause and effect appears here, it means that there is no big difference in Zhao Yue's judgment."
"Yes, sir!"
Xue Rui immediately seemed excited.
Zhao Yue gave three places. Now Xuanji looks at the cause and effect, and it is in the Yucheng District. If they had not set up the Jiuding Formation to scare away the monster, then it would definitely appear here.
This also confirmed that Zhao Yue's speculation was reliable. If the monster would not come to Yucheng District, then the possibility of appearing in the other two places would be greatly increased.
Xue Rui immediately turned to Tang Feng and said, "Sir, shall we go to Xichang Town?"
These three places are almost connected in a line. Starting from Yucheng District, you have to pass through Xichang Town before arriving at Dongmou County. The best route to choose at this moment is of course to go to Xichang Town.
Tang Feng nodded slightly.
Xue Rui quickly turned around and drove.
He didn't know the speed of this monster, but Xue Rui also knew that it would definitely not be slow. He was afraid that he would waste time and let the monster do something in Xichang Town.
If it was Zixuan in Xichang Town, Xue Ruishang wouldn't think anything of it, but it was Shangguan and Ji Ning there.
Although the cultivation of these two people is higher than Xue Rui, they are martial artists after all, and they are not comparable to cultivators. Even if they bring Xiao Hui and Xiao Tao, two spirit beasts, Xue Rui is still worried about them when he doesn't know the details of the monsters.
Spirit beasts will also be suppressed when they encounter high-level monsters.
Xue Rui has not forgotten that when he met Ming Shi, before he saw his true body, the breath alone made Xiao Hui and Xiao Tao anxious and uneasy, and they didn't dare to step forward at all, especially Xiao Tao, who was so scared that she lost her soul.
If the monster this time was a little higher in level, Xue Rui couldn't even think about the consequences.
When Xuan Ji saw Tang Feng was leaving, he couldn't help but step forward, with a very tangled expression on his face.
It was not easy to meet a person with such cultivation as Tang Feng here.
If Tang Feng left, Xuan Ji didn't know when he would have the chance to see him again.
He still had a lot of questions in his mind that he wanted to ask.
But facing a figure of the Immortal Venerable level, Xuan Ji did not think that he had the right to ask the other party to stay.
Just as Xuan Ji was hesitating, Tang Feng had already turned around and walked towards the car. As he walked, he said lightly: "Do you want to come and see it together?"
