When Wei Zong heard Nangong Yun's words, he looked at him with admiration and said.

"The sect master has profound cultivation, and he should be able to help the two nephews recover in a short time!"

Although Wei Zong said this, he was still unsure.

When Nangong Yun heard this, he was secretly glad. It seemed that Wan Zhentian was healing the two people on Wanxiang Mountain. In this way, at least he didn't have to worry about Wan Zhentian suddenly coming here.

Then, he asked Wei Zong again.

"Elder Wei, now that Jianmen Gate has been attacked, I wonder if our Qingshi County can defend it?"

Facing Nangong Yun's worries, Wei Zong said with a smile.

"Nephew, don't worry about this. I have already set up a layout outside the city. When Tianjianmen attacks, they will definitely be unable to come back. Even if they have experts on guard, they will definitely suffer heavy losses!"

Nangong Yun was shocked when he heard Wei Zong's words. What kind of trap had he set outside the city? Why are you so confident that you can defeat the people of Tianjian Mountain!

Nangong Yun originally wanted to try to find out more about their secret layout, but he heard Wei Zong suddenly laugh.

"Haha, my nephew doesn't have to worry. If my nephew is interested, he can stay in Qingshi County for two more days. I predict that the Tianjian Sect will definitely attack our Qingshi County within two days. At that time, my nephew can also take care of himself. Appreciate how these thieves from Tianjian Sect were defeated by me!"

Having said this, Wei Zong looked very proud, as if he was already sure of this battle, which made Nangong Yun even more worried.

If Wei Zong really set some powerful trap outside the city, he would have to find a way to inform Yue Tianpeng and the others as soon as possible.

Otherwise, if the people of Tianjian Sect are ambushed, their plan may come to nothing.

However, what Wei Zong said just now made Nangong Yun secretly happy, that is, he wanted to invite Nangong Yun to stay and watch the battle. In this case, Nangong Yun would at least have time to investigate Wei Zong's conspiracy.

Then, he smiled and said to Wei Zong.

"If it is only delayed for a day or two, it will probably not have any impact. After Elder Wei breaks through the Tianjian Sect, I can just bring this good news to the master of the sect and make him happy!"

Nangong Yun's words immediately struck Wei Zong's heart. He was originally ordered to guard Qingshi County, but he was unsure. After all, the Sword Mountain was coming fiercely today.

However, when he left Wanxiang Mountain not long ago, Wan Zhentian gave him something. With this, he became confident when he faced the Tianjian Sect again.

Wei Zong said with a smile.

"My nephew said well! Then you can stay here first and wait for my good news! See how I can repel these thieves without spending a single soldier!"

"Well!"

After Nangong Yun said goodbye to Wei Zong, he was arranged to live in a guest room in the southwest corner of the house.

Now he has sneaked into Qingshi County, and has also initially investigated the internal situation of Qingshi County.

There are nearly 20,000 guards in the entire Qingshi County. If they fight the Tianjian Sect head-on, they will probably lose more than they win.

However, the layout outside the city mentioned by Wei Zong worried Nangong Yun.

He guessed that the layout Wei Zong mentioned should be a facility like a trap.

Because, he just said that he would not waste a single soldier. Since he did not send anyone to ambush, it was only possible that he had set a trap.

When Nangong Yun thought about this, he couldn't help but recall that when he killed Wu Tianyong in Ten Thousand Beasts City, he once heard him say that Wan Zhentian was proficient in formations.

It is not difficult to guess that the layout Wei Zong mentioned is probably something like a magic circle barrier.

Immediately, Nangong Yun decided to go out of the city to find out. However, he had just arrived in Qingshi County, and he was still living in Wei Zong's mansion. If he was found sneaky, it might arouse his suspicion!

However, if he does not find out Wei Zong's conspiracy as soon as possible, he will definitely cause Tianjian Sect to suffer heavy losses. In that case, their plan will be in vain.

In the end, he decided to take the risk. Anyway, he had now found out the situation in Qingshi County. If he was really discovered, he would probably escape from Qingshi County and join Yue Tianpeng and the others to launch a massive attack.

...

It's quiet at night.

Nangong Yun, wearing a black shirt, jumped out of the window and rushed outside Qingshi County.

He didn't know where he got this black clothes, but at this time, he had become one with the dark night.

Not long after, Nangong Yun arrived outside the city of Qingshi County. Of course, he climbed out from an uninhabited corner of the city wall.

He immediately began to explore various places outside the city. The magic circle, a structure used to condense the power of heaven and earth, will definitely retain the soul power of the person who set it up.

As long as Nangong Yun searches based on the soul power aura on Wei Zong's body, it will not be difficult to find the location of the magic circle.

However, in the dark night, he explored the entire area of ​​dozens of miles around Qingshi County, but did not find any trace of the magic circle.

He didn't even detect any trace of Wei Zong's remaining soul power.

Nangong Yun came to a mountain col ten miles away from Qingshi County to rest for a while, he couldn't help but murmur in his heart.

"Does Wei Zong's plan not refer to the magic circle?"

Because this is just his own guess. Perhaps Wei Zong's arrangement has other intentions.

Nangong Yun couldn't help but feel a little disappointed and anxious when he thought about this. If Wei Zong's conspiracy could not be found out as soon as possible, Tianjian Sect might suffer heavy losses.

Nangong Yun was at a loss for a moment.

However, just as he sighed, there was also a sigh behind him!

Nangong Yun was immediately shocked. Every muscle in his body was on high alert in an instant.

It was simply unbelievable that this person could approach him without anyone noticing!

Moreover, Nangong Yun immediately realized that the opponent's strength must be far superior to his, even much more powerful than Wan Zhentian!

Because even Wan Zhentian, who was at the fifth level of Xingchen cultivation, could find it when he was dozens of feet away from him. Of course, Master Huo helped him find it.

But how could such a strong man suddenly appear in Qingshi County, and why would he stand quietly behind him and sigh?

Obviously, this mysterious master has been following him for a long time!

However, what was most incredible to him was that even Master Huo didn't notice this person's arrival in advance, which meant that his strength far exceeded his imagination.

Nangong Yun's heart suddenly became cold. He had never encountered such a situation before. Even when facing Wan Zhentian, it never gave him such despair.

He only felt that his hands and feet were numb and his body was a little stiff, because the person behind him had not made a move to him until now!

Nangong Yun didn't know what he was thinking. Could it be that the other party felt his fear and despair, so he deliberately tortured him like this and finally killed him!

The more Nangong Yun thought about it, the more horrified he became. He felt that all the hairs on his body were standing on end and his scalp was numb.

He grew up comfortably in Fengming Mountain, and the uncles and sisters around him cared for him in every possible way. Therefore, he did not develop much mental toughness.

However, at the moment when he faced death, he had no choice. In this case, he would rather use his last bit of strength than die in humiliation like this!

In the end, he couldn't bear the endless suffering.

Immediately, Nangong Yun shouted loudly, full of fighting spirit!

"Come and fight!"

"What's wrong with you?"

Nangong Yun suddenly heard a complete sentence coming from behind him!

Yes, a complete sentence, not just a sigh!

Nangong Yun's expression was a little distorted, and the corners of his mouth twitched unnaturally twice.

He forgot one thing, that is, Lord Huo himself does not need to discover himself!

Because the voice coming from behind him came from Master Huo!

Nangong Yun slowly turned around and looked at Master Huo floating in the air behind him. In an instant, every muscle in his body felt a little sore.

"Master Huo, I was almost scared to death by you!"

Master Huo said jokingly when he saw Nangong Yun's relieved and depressed look.

"Your kid's mental endurance is still far behind. You will have to hone your skills in the future!"

"Ah?! Come again!"

Nangong Yun looked helpless.

Lord Huo's sigh just now scared him a lot. However, after he calmed down, he felt something strange around him!

Because, in this mountain col, he suddenly felt an extremely weak fluctuation of soul power. He was only convinced after he released the soul power carefully to explore.

This is actually a formation base!

Nangong Yun was still exploring the surroundings carefully. However, except for this mountain col, there was no atmosphere of the magic circle at all.

"Why is this happening?"

Nangong Yun had a confused look on his face.

Generally speaking, the formation base, formation eyes and formation patterns of a large formation are connected to each other, and one of them is indispensable. Similarly, if there is only one of them, it will have no effect at all.

At this time, Master Huo who was listening to the side spoke.

"This guy is really a thief! He actually knows how to evolve the magic circle into the terrain. It's just that his shoddy method not only failed to take advantage of the power of the terrain, but also made it superfluous, making the entire magic circle less powerful. Less than one-tenth of the original value!”

Master Huo's comments made Nangong Yun confused. He looked at Master Huo in confusion and asked.

"Can the magic circle also take advantage of the terrain?"

"That's of course. The Tao of Formation is all-inclusive and can be used at any time and place. The Supreme Formation Tao can use the power of heaven and earth to move mountains and fill seas. It's no problem!"

Lord Huo gave another explanation on the Tao, but Nangong Yun was completely confused this time.

Under the tutelage of Master Huo since he was a child, he had some understanding of the formations, and he could even set up some simple small formations on his own.

However, today he was taught a hard lesson by Lord Huo.

It seems that he still has a lot to learn, and Master Huo knows even more things, which are far from what he can learn in these ten years.

Nangong Yun put away his thoughts and asked Lord Huo.

"Then he only set up a formation base here, where are the formation eyes?"

"This is just one of the formation bases. There must be seven other formation bases in other places. As long as you find all the formation bases, the formation eye will be obvious!"

Nangong Yun naturally understood what Master Huo meant.

Because the bases of the array are arranged at equal distances in all directions according to the direction of the array eye, so the center point of all array bases is where the array eye is!

After understanding this level, Nangong Yun immediately set out to search for several other formation bases. He wanted to find the formation eye before dawn and try to crack the formation!
