A Sword Through the Nine Heavens Chapter 157: The method of breaking the formation
It was pitch black outside, but there was light not far away, as if someone was lighting a fire. According to the distance of the light, the person should be across the river bank, and from time to time there were a few vague shouts. Then there was a green light flashing back and forth, it was the gleam of that person's magic weapon, and he seemed to have a hard time fighting with someone.
"That person should have come in with you? He shouldn't light the fire. The monsters in the river will climb up at night, and he will be besieged." Old Tan said lightly, the people on the other side didn't know the valley. In the middle of the night, a monster beast will appear, and when he ignites it, it is equivalent to completely exposing his position in front of all the monsters.
Mu Yu didn't know what the so-called monster beast was, but he was glad that he met Lao Tan, otherwise he might also be fighting the monster beast down there tonight. That person can persist in the Nascent Soul Stage, but he is only the Golden Core Stage cultivation base, how can he persist for so long.
"Can we help him?" Although that person has a very bad attitude towards Kiba, if we can stay together in this ghost place, there will be more chances of survival.
"Help? How to help? If he is smart, he will put out the fire, otherwise more and more monsters will be attracted to him, and he will definitely die by then." Old Tan shook his head and returned to his cave. in. At such a long distance, I can't fly, I can't see the situation clearly, and no one knows when I hit him.
Kiha thinks about it, now he is truly watching the fire from the other side. When the fire is still there, the man cannot escape the danger.
Fortunately, after a while, the person seemed to be aware of the problem. The fire on the other side suddenly disappeared, leaving only the light of the magic weapon. After a while, the light of the magic weapon also disappeared. I don't know if the person deliberately didn't shine or was buried in the mouth of the monster, and the surroundings returned to tranquility. Mu Yu sat back in the cave. For the present plan, he had to rest first and make plans tomorrow.
Kiha slept very badly this night. He tossed and turned for a long time before falling asleep in a daze, and then had another inexplicable dream. He dreamed that he was trapped in this ghost place all his life, and finally couldn't bear the loneliness. Want to commit suicide. Then he saw Feng Haochen coming to stop him, he had not had time to be happy, the people from the Triple Palace came over, and Feng Haochen was captured by them. Ki Yu reached out to save him, and then his hand hit the cave wall and hurt him. Woke up.
He turned around and went to sleep, and when he woke up the next day, he didn't remember the dream at all.
The sky was bright, and there was still a thick fog around him. Old Tan woke up Mu Yu and told him it was almost noon now. Kiba looked outside and thought it was early morning. They stayed in the hole and couldn't stretch their hands and feet, so they crawled down. On the bank of the river, Kiba widened his eyes to see the situation on the opposite side, but his visibility was too low and his vision was severely suppressed.
Kiyu went to the river and washed his face. The cold water in the river made him a little awake. He wanted to try again, but Lao Tan told him it was futile, but Kiyu was not reconciled. He ran forward this time, not to mention that he came back after a lap.
"I've tried it many times. This puzzle is too powerful. I can't use it at all." Lao Tan said calmly. He was not reconciled. He was finally discouraged after walking dozens of times. Now he has become accustomed to it. He knows that he wants Kiyu to accept this status quo. He can only wait for him to go a few times and let him die.
After Kiha walked twice again, his mood began to become irritable, and it was no way to go on like this. Lao Tan has walked so many times. He has much more experience than himself, but he still didn't go out. It is even more impossible for him to go out so stupidly. He sat down and practiced the Luochen Mind Method to calm himself down.
Xiao Shuai shook his tail and said: "I remember this formation. If I guessed correctly, this formation should be a mirror formation. I heard the old man with white beard talk about it a long time ago."
"What is a mirror array?" Kiba asked quickly.
Xiao Shuai tilted his head, thinking for a long time, and then explained: "In layman's terms, the mirror array is a straight road with a mirror at each end. If you walk along a road, you will go directly to the mirror. Inside, and then come out from the other mirror. This way you will keep walking back and forth on this road. If you want to go out, you must find these two mirrors."
A bright light flashed in Mu Yu's mind, and he suddenly understood how to crack this formation!
He deliberately walked around the river bank again, and the difference was that he counted the steps this time.
He began to sink his heart to think about it. First he left the green poisonous fog and walked about a hundred steps before throwing away the vine. It took about 2,645 steps from the vine to here, and 1,350 steps to walk from here to the vine, which means that it would take about 4,000 steps to walk around this puzzle.
Any formation must have a boundary, as long as you find this boundary, it is easy to find a way out. This boundary is what Xiaoshuai called the two mirrors of the mirror array.
But how do you determine the location of this boundary?
Kiha walked a step and stopped to observe the changes around him. If it was a boundary, there would definitely be some flaws on the left and right sides of the boundary, such as faults in the soil and stones on the ground.
Kiyu spent a day searching the ground four thousand steps, trying to find something wrong, but he was a little disappointed.
In this way, it seems that the organizers may have noticed this problem a long time ago and erased the abnormality.
"By the way, find a marker!"
Kiba patted his thigh, and he suddenly thought of a way. This section of the road is a straight line, about three steps of one meter, which is more than one thousand meters. If there is a recognizable marker in the center of this section of the road, then you only need to face the marker and walk backwards. When you can’t see the marker, it means you have passed the critical line and returned to the starting point. According to reason, the marker should be behind oneself, so that the critical line can be determined.
He quickly told Xiao Shuai what he thought, but Xiao Shuai blinked his innocent eyes and asked, "What should I look for as a marker? The fog is so big here, two meters away, people and animals will not recognize them. What do you expect to see."
Kiba opened his mouth and was discouraged before he could be happy. Xiaoshuai was right. It was foggy during the day, and even if you set a fire during the day, you couldn’t see it! At night, there is still a possibility. On the other side of the river that night, they could see a vague firelight from far away, and the firelight at night was still very penetrating.
However, there are monsters at night, and the fire will draw the monsters in the river ashore, which means that the ignition must bear the risk of being attacked by the monsters. Mu Yu hasn't learned the strength of the monster beasts in the river, but according to Lao Tan's description of the monster beasts, the monster beasts in the river are definitely not vegetarian little sheep. This is certain. Setting a fire at night is undoubtedly equivalent to playing with fire and self-immolation, and the situation will only be worse.
Mu Yu has only thought of this way so far, he ran back to discuss his findings with Lao Tan. After listening to Mu Yu's explanation for a long time, Lao Tan finally understood what Mu Yu was trying to express, and a look of hope suddenly appeared in his eyes.
"You are a genius! I have been sleepy for more than half a year and never thought of this way. Tell me how to implement your plan, we can try to find out."
Lao Tan is actually very afraid of the monsters in the river, but if he can't find a way out after being trapped for so long, he will be trapped here for the rest of his life. It's better to fight for it! As long as he can go out, he is willing to try anything dangerous.
"The only thing we can use as a marker is flames. There are no trees here, so we can only use Dan Flint. Dan Flint needs spiritual power to maintain the flame, which means that someone needs to maintain the Dan Flint in the center of the road. If the flame is too small, it may be invisible, so the flame must be maximized. But this will also bring serious problems. The flame will attract monsters, and the person holding the pill flint will be very dangerous."
Kiha hesitated for a moment, and seriously pointed out the loopholes in this plan. He can actually control the burning of plants, but if many plants that shouldn't exist here suddenly appear here, it will arouse Lao Tan's suspicion. No matter when, Ki Yu does not want to expose his ability to control trees.
His plan is not perfect, because the person who maintains the flame has to take great risks, and needs to face the attacks of all monsters, and may even be buried in the belly of the monsters and become a monster food. Once that person had an accident, the blessing of the Dan Flint without spiritual power would immediately go out, and the only marker would lose its function.
And another person who wants to determine the critical line must walk in the dark, walking in the dark, will inevitably encounter a monster beast, when you can't see it, confronting a monster beast will definitely not be any better than another person.
It can be said that the risks faced by these two people are actually the same. Once one makes a mistake, the whole plan will be ruined.
Lao Tan also thought of this. In fact, he immediately realized that the person who maintains the flame must be him~IndoMTL.com~ the person who maintains the Dan Flint, which is equivalent to telling all the monsters their exact location, and they must be with the monsters. Just have a fight. He is strong enough to hold on for a while under the siege of monsters, and his spiritual power is stronger than that of Kiyu, and his flames will be more vigorous.
But can Kiba escape other monsters in the dark? We must know that these monsters only come out at night, so their night vision ability is very strong. Mu Yu has only the strength of the Golden Core Stage, can it withstand the attacks of these monsters?
Neither of them spoke. This plan is very risky, and the consequences of any accident are unimaginable. If something goes wrong with the person who maintains the flame, the person looking for the critical line will lose their sense of direction. You can’t fly here. If you can’t find a place to stay in the dark night, you will wait for death; if the person looking for the critical line has an accident, the person who maintains the flame cannot To make sure whether the other party has something wrong, should he continue to maintain the flame or find a place to hide?
"The most important point is that even if I find the critical line, I am not sure to crack the formation." Kiba finally said, pushing the plan into a dilemma. This is like a semi-final. Even if you enter the finals, you are not confident that you can win the championship, but if you do not enter the finals, you have no hope of winning.
"I want to try it." Old Tan Ning said.
He has been stuck here for too long. If he doesn’t try, he will never get out. The spiritual energy here is so thin. If he wants to cultivate to the out-of-aperture period, he probably won’t be able to reach it in his life. If you don't try, you will definitely wait to die.
Kiba nodded, he must also try, he still has a lot of time waiting for him to splurge, but he can't plant in this place where birds don't shit.
After the two decided, the next step was to discuss more details. After everything was confirmed, they began to recharge and wait for the night to come.
