Cheng Ling breathed a sigh of relief. After nearly three years, he finally upgraded his talisman to the seventh level of immortal talisman. However, he knew that he was able to reach the current state thanks to the patterns in the maze and Ma Dai's talisman inheritance. The state of the seventh-level immortal talisman was not stable, and he would have to find a way to settle down in the future.
At this time, deciphering the magic circle in front of you is the key. He refined many seventh-grade immortal talismans and released them, which should make the defense more powerful. Moreover, he also discovered a talisman called the "invisibility talisman" among the talisman's inheritance.
This kind of talisman can be used to conceal the breath on one's body. As long as it does not move, it is just like an ordinary stone or tree, and others cannot feel it at all.
He decided to refine some more, and with the addition of defensive talismans, he should be able to get through this place. Just when he finished refining the monster skin and blood and was about to make a talisman, he thought that the talisman pen hanging on his body was very magical, so he might as well give it a try and see its effect.
He took out the talisman pen, dipped it in blood, and began to draw on the talisman paper. As soon as I use it, I feel that the carving is very smooth, and there are still traces of fairy essence gathered into the strokes of the talisman.
This situation has never happened before. To draw the talisman, you use your own immortal energy. Now with this talisman pen, it can absorb the energy of heaven and earth from the outside world to increase the power of the talisman.
He was greatly surprised. After drawing a talisman, he felt it for a moment and found that the aura of the talisman drawn by other talisman pens was indeed much stronger. In this way, you will be more confident in cracking the magic circle!
He took out the talisman pen and observed it carefully. The pen barrel was in a spiral shape and felt great in his hand. The hair on the tip of the pen was very soft and white, as if the talisman water he had just carved had not been contaminated by it. The whole talisman pen has a neat, round and strong tip. It is definitely a top-grade pen.
Another point is that when the talisman was carved just now, the vitality of heaven and earth naturally gathered automatically. Then if when drawing a talisman in the void, you can attract the vitality of heaven and earth and keep the strokes from scattering, wouldn't you be able to successfully draw a talisman in the void?
But the talisman pen can achieve such an effect, obviously because the materials used are excellent, and my fingers are not talisman pens, so how can I keep my spiritual power alive?
After thinking hard for several hours, I still had no clue, so I could only let it go temporarily. However, after thinking twice, he vaguely felt that drawing the talisman in the void could definitely be realized. There must be some trick that he hadn't fully understood yet!
He started making talismans again. After a few days, he had produced hundreds of level 7 defense talismans and dozens of invisibility talismans. He thought to himself that these should be enough!
After getting everything ready, he decided to show up and break the formation. After paying attention to the images in the surveillance array, he suddenly rushed out and immediately took a photo of the invisibility talisman and defense talisman on his body.
Putting both feet on the ground and looking around, he seemed to have entered an illusory space. I don't know how big this space is, so I can only explore it step by step. He decided to break the illusory formation here first so that his consciousness could temporarily escape from the trap.
After observing for a long time, he had an idea and began to refine the formation pillars and flags in preparation for breaking the formation. But as soon as he moved, the killing formation immediately reacted and blasted him with a few blasts of energy.
Cheng Ling had no choice but to hide in the defensive circle. Fortunately, the defense of the formation plate and the seventh-grade talisman was strong enough, and the energy was easily blocked.
It took Cheng Ling two days to refine all the pillars and flags of the illusion-breaking array before leaving the pagoda again. The moment he came out of the tower, he threw out several defensive talismans, increased his speed to the limit, and drove in the formation pillars one by one.
The defensive circle on the body was constantly being attacked by the killing array, making "chichi" sounds from time to time. Fortunately, the talisman had been upgraded to level seven, and it could barely resist it.
After driving the formation pillars into the corresponding points, he threw out several formation flags and did not stop until all the points were occupied. Next, to decipher the talisman connected to the formation trajectory, take out the talisman pen and draw the connected patterns one by one. Before one is completed, the talisman at the connection will disappear.
Finally, as time passed, all the talismans in the space disappeared. With a loud "buzz" sound, the space in front of you suddenly became bright, and the scope of your spiritual consciousness was greatly increased. The formation tracks and connecting talismans in the space were reduced by one-third, and the illusion formation was broken!
The next step is to break the killing formation. With a sweep of his consciousness, he memorized the location of the killing array, moved his hands together, and began to decipher it. After about three days, the killing array was broken and the defensive talismans on his body were also exhausted.
He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, sat down cross-legged, and began to restore the immortal energy in his body.
One day later, all the immortal energy was restored. Now there was only one trapped formation left, which was relatively easy to break. However, he still carefully observed each formation base and cracked the connecting talismans one by one. It took him two days to finally break the trap.
After the three formations were broken, the vision suddenly became clear. A passage appeared in the distance ahead, which was very similar to the previous maze passage, but the stone walls on both sides were not carved.
He slapped a few more defensive talismans on his body before slowly walking deeper into the passage. He walked extremely slowly, stopping to observe carefully every time he walked. Gradually, he came to the center of the passage.
But when he got here, he felt something was wrong. The scene in front of him didn't seem to match what was in the passage. He sat down cross-legged and observed carefully. It didn't look like a formation, but it looked like a formation. What was it?
After thinking hard for a long time, an idea flashed in my mind. It turned out that this place was a restricted place. Restriction is an extension of the formation. It has many types, such as defense, attack, concealment, etc. The difference from the formation is that it does not require formation pillars and formation flags. However, the coverage of the restriction is often very small. Generally, They are all set up in caves or other small spaces.
Today's passage is not wide, and restrictions can be placed. It has similarities with formations, but takes a different approach. Restrictions are divided into four categories: life and death restrictions, seal restrictions, destruction restrictions, and control restrictions.
The ban on life and death ranks first among all forbidden laws. It is also the most mysterious and powerful, and few people can understand it. Destruction of restrictions is a means of direct killing and defense. Sealing restrictions are a kind of forbidden method for high-level monks or monsters. It can consume a large amount of the opponent's spiritual power and temporarily lose the ability to move.
Control restrictions are the most mysterious. Cheng Ling used control restrictions on Zhang Chu and others before, firmly controlling the life and death of other monks in his hands.
However, Cheng Ling didn't learn many restraints. He only came into contact with several control techniques in the derivation of formations. Now that he saw a large number of restraints here, he was not surprised but overjoyed and started to deduce them seriously.
For him, it would be great to have another way to save his life or increase his strength!
The restrictions here are almost all-encompassing, with tens of thousands of them layered upon each other. At first, the level of the restriction was not very high, but Cheng Ling learned quickly, and within a few days he had advanced more than ten feet.
But later on, the restrictions became more and more complicated. Originally, he could use the life and death ban to break it, but the restrictions in Jiuyou Immortal Mansion are different from those he has seen before. This can broaden his knowledge.
Therefore, he did not crack it directly, but went step by step and corroborated it bit by bit with what he had learned. He could only take a dozen steps forward every day, and then it became one step every day, one step every three days, and one step every ten days.
At this time, he had reached the end of the passage, and the exit was a few feet ahead. But he didn't dare to move. What he saw in front of him was so many restrictions intertwined that it was impossible to find the source of the crack.
He just sat quietly in front of those restrictions and continued to deduce. One month, two months, half a year, one year...
His mind was also being consumed a lot, and the hair that had turned black after being nourished by the Dan River gradually began to turn gray again, eventually turning completely white.
Just like this, after sitting motionless for three years, his eyes had turned blood red, and his body had become very thin due to a lot of mental exertion.
He closed his eyes and presented all the restrictions he had deduced over the past three years in his mind. After a long time, a light flashed in his eyes, and his hand began to move. One by one, forbidden handprints were produced from his hands, starting with one handprint in the first few breaths, and then one every breath later.
The speed was still accelerating, turning into dozens, hundreds, tens of thousands in one breath... Later, the flesh and blood in his hands could no longer keep up with his hand speed, and began to split and fall off, and finally Only the bones are left.
But he still didn't stop. Those entangled restrictions were broken one by one, just like being peeled off.
At this time, his body began to move forward slowly, and gradually the speed began to increase, but the restraint in his hand did not stop.
It took him a whole day to finally cover the distance of just a few feet. As soon as he got out of the restricted circle, Cheng Ling immediately sat cross-legged to recover from his injuries and his mind.
In the past few years, his mind has been consumed so much that even his arms are nothing but bones. A month later, he slowly recovered.
After recovering, he began to sort out the restrictions he had learned here. These restrictions included almost all restrictions, such as life and death restrictions, seal restrictions, destruction restrictions, and control restrictions. After this realization, Cheng Ling felt that he had a better understanding of the world in terms of restrictions. Broader and more skilled.
In terms of restraints, he can be regarded as standing at the pinnacle among his peers. His formation level finally broke through the seventh level due to the research of restraints, and he advanced to the eighth-level immortal formation master! Now in his eyes, the road ahead is smooth, and the formations and restrictions in Jiuyou Immortal Mansion can no longer pose any threat to him.
He walked towards the depths, and not long after, he came to a valley. On the outside of the valley, he saw the word "Array Gate" written on a mountain wall.
There were still many disciples' houses built on both sides of the valley. Cheng Ling walked into them and plundered all the formation materials. Gradually, they came to a house in the middle.
There were still many wooden frames placed in the house. Cheng Ling flicked his sleeves and the wooden frames disappeared one after another, but three jade slips fell down with a "ding, ding, ding". He was very happy that his hard work was finally worth it.
He picked up the three jade slips and placed them between his eyebrows one by one to look at them. One mainly explains the restrictions and formations, the other is about talismans, and the two inheritances are very complete and can be directly learned to the ninth level, and the last one is the topographic map of the entire Jiuyou Immortal Mansion.
