Zhao Lin calmed down and concentrated on observing everything around him.
The illusion array has a strong interference with spiritual consciousness. Even if you close your eyes, illusions will still appear in front of you. When you emit ultrasonic waves, you will encounter countless obstacles, large and small.
The world in the formation is upside down and the directions are changing. It is impossible to get out before breaking the formation. What you think is a straight line is actually going in circles, or even spinning in circles.
At this moment, the scene in front of Zhao Lin changed again.
With a roaring sound, dozens of huge rocks rolled down from the mountain, and with the sound of howling wind, they hit his body hard.
Not only that, one after another, terrifying monsters poked their heads out of the abyss, opening their bloody mouths, revealing a mouth full of fangs, as if they were looking for people to eat.
Most of these boulders and monsters are just illusions, but some are transformed by attack spells.
When you are in the illusion formation, it is difficult to tell what is true and what is false. Once you make a mistake in judgment, you will be severely damaged.
In the blink of an eye, Zhao Lin's many years of martial arts experience allowed Zhao Lin to react in time.
He bravely took a step forward and stepped into the abyss. Then he swayed and swung the iron ruler to meet two boulders and smashed them into pieces.
The remaining boulders and monsters instantly died down and became invisible.
"so close!"
Zhao Lin let out a breath. The illusion created by the illusion array was extremely lifelike. Even if he thought his judgment was correct, the step he just took still required great courage.
Although he escaped a disaster, he did not relax because of this. This was just the beginning, and the phantom formation would become stronger and stronger.
Boo hoo hoo…
More than a dozen giant pythons suddenly jumped out of the abyss and rushed towards Zhao Lin at extremely fast speeds.
If you look at it from outside the formation at this time, it's a different scene.
Zhao Lin stood on the flat ground. There was neither an abyss, nor a mountain, nor a giant python around him. There was only a spell released by the magic circle: Ground Sting.
Five long and sharp thorns sprouted from the ground and pierced Zhao Lin's front and back.
Sensing the fluctuation of mana, Zhao Lin quickly swept away with his spiritual consciousness, spread out his body, and used the iron ruler to cut off five giant pythons in half.
"Bang bang bang bang bang!"
The five earth thorns collapsed.
Break another spell!
Next, the phantom formation changed again and again.
From the mountains and swamps, to desert quicksands, to the rough seas, the Five Elements spells are also endless.
Zhao Lin resisted the attack without any danger, and his mood gradually calmed down, remembering what Elder Wu once said when he taught the formation.
"Illusions are only used to interfere. If the magic circle is strong enough, there is no need to create illusions at all. You can do whatever you want with powerful spells."
"Just like the sect's mountain-protecting formation and Fangshi's protective spells, the Zifu monks can't compete with them."
After several rounds of spell confrontation, Zhao Lin judged that the level of this magic circle was not high. As long as he was not confused by it, he would have a chance to break it.
For example, just now, if hundreds of ground thorns are released, even if you have three heads and six arms, you can't resist it.
This is also true. There is no spiritual vein in the Yin Wind Realm. This magic circle is deployed with the help of geographical advantages and the energy of the three Yins, so its power is naturally weakened.
"Why is it so difficult to deal with a person at the third level of Qi Refining?"
The sloppy monk outside the formation felt more and more something was wrong. After careful observation, he exclaimed: "It's a martial arts cultivator!"
His face then darkened. He had been cultivating for twenty years and today was the first time he opened his business. He originally thought he could easily deal with two low-level monks, but he didn't expect that one of them is a martial artist and the other is a physical practitioner. They are both strong-minded!
It's just that I've been shut up for so many years, and my vision and knowledge have deteriorated.
"Looks like I need to replenish the spiritual stones!"
The sloppy monk gritted his teeth and took out a few spiritual stones from his arms. He turned his palm over and a formation plate suddenly appeared in his palm.
The array disk is engraved with dense array patterns. From the inside to the outside, there are circles like a sundial track, with a circular depression in the middle.
One piece, two pieces, three pieces...
The sloppy monk put the spiritual stone into the center of the formation disk. The formation disk trembled slightly, absorbing all the spiritual energy.
Zheng!
The array pattern on the array disk lit up with a ray of light, and the orbit started to rotate rapidly.
The Three Yin Fantasy Killing Array is dominated by Yin energy and can be driven without the need for spirit stones, but its power is limited after all. The purpose of adding spirit stones is to strengthen the power of the array.
Zhao Lin felt his eyes blurred, and the scenery changed again.
There is no longer a cave in front of us, nor is it in the Yinfeng Realm. It is filled with the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers.
"This is……"
Zhao Lin was in a garden and felt that the scenery in front of him was so familiar, it turned out to be the Zhao Mansion in the mortal world!
"Brother, you are back!"
A middle-aged man with a simple appearance came over, with a simple smile on his face. It was Zhao Lin's brother Zhao Shan!
"elder brother……"
Zhao Lin's heart felt hot and he called softly.
There should be a teleportation circle that teleports him back to the mortal world!
The phantom array has a strong interference effect. Things that usually seem unbelievable and completely impossible, now feel reasonable and reasonable, and even give explanations by themselves.
Although Zhao Lin had the thought that he was still in the formation, but... the magic formation could conjure monsters, but it was impossible for him to know that he had a brother, let alone what his brother looked like.
This must be true.
"Come quickly, uncle is back!"
The sister-in-law walked over with two nephews and a niece with a big smile on her face.
"Uncle, Jizong misses you!"
"Xuanwu also wants you!"
The two nephews broke away from their mother's hand, ran over quickly, and threw themselves into Zhao Lin's arms.
"Uncle misses you too!"
Zhao Lin had a smile on his face and reached out to touch the heads of his two nephews.
Just as he stretched out his hand, his expression suddenly changed.
Originally, Zhao Lin had no doubts about this scene, but after all, he had been confused by the ghost before, so he still retained a trace of vigilance in his heart, and subconsciously glanced at the spiritual chart.
But I saw three words appearing in the seventh grid of the spiritual cultivation map: surge wave technique!
Zhao Lin suddenly woke up. Everything in front of him was an illusion, and his two nephews could not touch him!
He suddenly realized that he had been monitoring his surroundings with his spiritual consciousness. The illusion array extracted the past memories from his spiritual consciousness, and then transformed his close relatives to confuse himself.
Thinking of this, Zhao Lin used both fists to hit the two nephews who were running over.
"ah!"
The two little guys were petrified, and the sister-in-law let out a heart-rending scream.
"stop!"
Zhao Shan was shocked and angry, with a look of disbelief.
"Lin'er, what are you doing?"
The white-haired Mother Zhao appeared in sight, with a look of disappointment and even despair on her face.
"I……"
Zhao Lin wanted to defend himself, but as soon as he said the words, he suddenly remembered that everything in front of him was an illusion.
But what if it’s not an illusion?
Didn’t he kill his two nephews with his own hands?
"It's an illusion. I have sensed mana fluctuations."
Zhao Lin looked like he was struggling. Seeing his two nephews running closer and closer, he gritted his teeth and punched out.
boom!
The scene changed, mother, brother, sister-in-law, nieces and nephews...all disappeared.
Cave, strange rocks, star peony on the ground not far away...
The fog cleared and everything returned to its original state.
"The formation is broken!"
Zhao Lin let out a long breath and panted heavily with sweat.
Although I knew it was an illusion, I still felt uncomfortable when I thought of my two nephews.
This formation is really evil, the attack power is not strong, but it is so deceptive, I almost fell into it.
Looking around, the dark cave actually had a sense of intimacy.
"Brother Zhao, congratulations on breaking the formation!"
With an excited shout, Wei Shi turned out from behind a big stone and strode over with excitement on his face.
"Brother Wei, are you okay?"
Zhao Lin asked with concern.
"fine!"
Wei Shi patted his chest and reached out to hold Zhao Lin's shoulders.
"Little tricks!"
Zhao Lin's face darkened and he punched hard.
boom!
Wei Shi took two steps back, a look of pain appeared on his face, and then his body turned invisible.
There was a faint roar from the ground, and the mana fluctuations finally stopped completely.
Zhao Lin breathed a sigh of relief. Now he was finally sure that he had truly broken the magic circle.
Looking back now, I still feel scared.
First, use your loved ones to confuse yourself, and then suddenly throw a cold arrow when you think you have broken the formation. If you don't stay awake at all times and add the reminders of the spiritual chart, you may be trapped in it and unable to get out.
After wiping the sweat from his head, Zhao Lin suddenly condensed his eyes, and there was an icy coldness in his eyes.
Since it is a man-made magic circle, the real owner must be found.
He jumped up and stepped on a large rock, looked around, and soon found a figure flashing beside the large rock dozens of feet away.
"Want to run?"
Zhao Lin jumped up, and energy spurted out from his hole, shooting straight like a swordfish.
He made a secret in his hand and used an ice knife technique.
The ice blade condensed in the air, shot out, made an arc in the air, and stabbed the figure hiding behind the boulder.
"Those who hide their heads and show their tails, come out!"
The figure could no longer hide, lowered its head and jumped out. Seeing Zhao Lin flying in the air, he was startled and opened his hand to release a spell.
A black smoke billowed out, and as soon as it met the ice blade shot by Zhao Lin, it swallowed the ice blade directly, then spun in the air and headed straight for Zhao Lin's face.
Zhao Lin didn't dare to take a direct hit, so he quickly adjusted his direction and avoided it sideways.
As soon as my feet landed on the ground, I heard the sound of "thumping" from the big rocks around me.
Glancing at it from the corner of my eye, I could see that the surface of the boulder was mottled and pitted by the black smoke.
Zhao Lin's eyelids twitched and he thought, what kind of spell is this?
Looking at the spiritual chart, I saw three words appearing in the seventh grid: Yinfeng Diamond!
The name of this spell...why is it so weird! Not only had I never heard of it, but it also gave off an evil vibe.
Looking at the monk's appearance, he was even more surprised.
I saw this man in tattered clothes, disheveled hair, pale face, without a trace of blood, especially his eyes, with small pupils and white eyes that almost filled the entire eyes. He looked neither human nor ghost.
ghost?
Zhao Lin felt something in his heart and immediately used the Qi Watching Technique.
I saw that this person had five Qi pillars on his body, but unlike ordinary Dharma practitioners, these five Qi pillars were actually black!
Suddenly a flash of lightning flashed across Zhao Lin's mind, and he shouted: "You are a ghost cultivator!"
Ghost cultivation is an even less popular form of cultivation than martial arts and physical cultivation, and it is 100% evil.
Generally speaking, the good and evil of a monk mainly depends on their character and has nothing to do with their skills. However, ghost cultivators are different. They are the most evil type among monks.
The reason is that the way ghost cultivators practice relies on absorbing corpse energy and souls from mortals and monks.
To practice as a ghost, you must kill people to improve your cultivation.
Because of this, all major sects used thunderous means against ghost cultivators, and all books and jade slips related to ghost cultivators were destroyed.
Anyone who dares to practice ghost ways will be killed without mercy.
But even so, ghost cultivators are still banned repeatedly. The reason is because ghost cultivators have a long lifespan.
The lifespan of a monk in the Qi Refining Realm is up to 150 years, while the lifespan of a ghost cultivator in the Soul Refining Realm at the same level is six hundred years, which is comparable to the late-stage Zifu Realm monks in the Dharma Cultivator.
Therefore, there are always monks who are greedy for life and afraid of death, and have no hope of building a foundation to practice the ghost way.
If you want to become a ghost cultivator, the first thing you need to do is to cut off your own vitality.
Although the clothes of the person in front of me are in tatters, it can be vaguely seen that they are the Taoist robes of the Chenghua Sect. It has obviously been in the cave for a long time.
Zhao Lin understood everything at once.
"Yes, the Yinfeng Realm has a strong Yin energy and is inaccessible, so it is suitable for ghost cultivators to practice here."
Ghost Xiu narrowed his eyes and smiled coldly, "Now that I've let you see it, I can't let you out alive!"
"Come and accept your fate!"
After speaking, his cuffs flicked, and a gray cloth bag appeared in his palm. The pocket was heavily black and embroidered with a sinister white skull.
He quickly pinched out the magic formula with his fingers, flipped the cloth bag in his hand, released a stream of black smoke, and gave a loud shout.
"Dark Wind Diamond!"
This bag-shaped magic weapon is called the Xuanyin Bag. Because it absorbs the Yin Qi in the Yin Wind Realm, it has a greatly enhanced effect on ghost magic.
The Ghost Cultivator's Evil Wind Diamond was originally only at the minor level, but after being enhanced and amplified by the magic weapon, it actually reached the level of proficiency, making it even more powerful and powerful than before.
The black smoke is formless and cannot be intercepted with iron ruler or spiritual knife skills. Moreover, ghost cultivators, like the creatures in the Yin Wind Realm, are afraid of fire and thunder spells.
Zhao Lin had already thought about it, and without thinking, he fired a fire spell: Flaming Arrow.
The fire spirit energy condensed, and dozens of burning arrows came forward.
boom!
The black smoke and the flaming arrows collided in the air, raising flames that were more than ten feet high. There was a stalemate for a moment, and finally the fire spell gained the upper hand and the black smoke was burned away.
The remaining dozen flame arrows continued to fly towards the ghost cultivator.
"Fire spell!"
The ghost cultivator's face changed color, he quickly unfolded the Xuan Yin bag in his hand and waved it upward.
There was only a muffled sound of "puff puff", and all the flame arrows were extinguished. They were all stopped by the Xuanyin bag, and the ghost cultivator was shocked and took two steps back.
What magic weapon is this?
Zhao Lin stared at the other party's Xuan Yin bag and frowned.
Little did he know that this Xuanyin bag was different from ordinary magic weapons. Not only could it amplify ghost spells, it was also a defensive magic weapon. There were several defensive patterns engraved in it, greatly increasing its defensive power.
The ghost cultivator opposite was also shocked.
How could a small third-level Qi refining martial artist be so powerful in spells and reach the level of proficiency?
If it weren't for this magic weapon in hand, I wouldn't be able to resist it with magic alone.
"We can't let him run away. Once the news leaks out, Chenghua Sect will definitely send people to hunt him down. No matter how big the Yinfeng Realm is, there is no place for me."
Without hesitation, the ghost cultivator once again injected spiritual power into the Xuanyin bag in his hand, and aimed a spell at Zhao Lin.
