It was midnight, and there were frogs croaking everywhere, adding a mysterious color to this restless late night.
At this time, a long queue was walking mightily in the mountains, and the leaders were Lin Beichen and Mu Lingyun.
"Master Lin, look, we are at this location now. We still have about ten miles to go before we can reach the Sun Moon Lake." Mu Lingyun pointed to a place on the sheepskin map in his hand, then looked at Lin Beichen and said .
Lin Beichen nodded slightly when he heard the words, then raised his head and looked up at the sky.
I saw the moon hanging silently high in the night sky, shaped like a crescent moon, emitting wisps of faint light.
It seems that tonight is indeed the time when the moonlight is at its weakest.
Lin Beichen stopped, lowered his head and remained silent for a moment, then stretched out his hands under Mu Lingyun's doubtful eyes.
Before Mu Lingyun could ask questions, purple beads appeared out of thin air in Lin Beichen's hands, exuding mysterious and obscure mysterious auras.
There are as many as ten purple beads, and their powerful and bright purple light illuminates the surrounding darkness.
This was the result that Lin Beichen had locked himself in the courtyard for the past few days and spent endless efforts refining.
"This is?"
Mu Lingyun asked with a puzzled look.
His attention was all on the unusual aura emitted by these purple beads, but he ignored the most important point, which was how these purple beads appeared out of thin air.
Lin Beichen looked at the dark road ahead, his eyes gradually narrowed, and he said in a very solemn tone: "These things can save the lives of the people behind us at critical times, and can also complete the layout of this magic circle to the greatest extent. Kill that dragon-shaped creature."
"Besides, if we ask people to help, we can't even guarantee their safety, right?"
As he spoke, Lin Beichen showed a faint smile.
Although he was still a little hesitant before, when he really saw these huge crowds, the hesitation in his heart disappeared.
These one thousand people seemed not to be many, but when they actually stood in front of them, they realized that the number of these one thousand people was large enough to form a long queue.
Although it cost him thousands of mid-grade spiritual crystals to refine these ten purple beads, which made him bleed with distress, he had no regrets.
"Is this thing so powerful? I can't tell it no matter how I look." Mu Lingyun took one of the purple beads from Lin Beichen's hand and kept looking up and down.
Based on his knowledge, he could only feel that there seemed to be something unusual about this purple ball, but he couldn't tell what was unusual about it.
But he also believed in Lin Beichen unconditionally.
Lin Beichen said that this thing could save his life, so he believed that this thing could save his life.
However, after groping for a long time, Mu Lingyun still couldn't find any mystery, so he gave up looking, then looked up at Lin Beichen who was smiling slightly, and asked in confusion: "How is this thing used?"
"This ball is actually just a smaller version of a defensive array, but it needs to be activated."
"You need to drip the user's blood onto this purple bead to identify its owner, and then activate the protection of the magic circle according to the user's thoughts."
"As long as the user's thoughts flash, this purple ball will automatically generate a purple defensive light shield in a very short period of time to block attacks."
"Hmm... I may have told you that you don't understand. The strength of this defensive light shield can withstand any attack below the Tianyin realm. I don't know the strength of that dragon-shaped creature, but when the light of the sun and moon is the weakest, At that time, he definitely didn’t have the strength of the Tianyin realm.”
"However, this thing also has a use time. Once the energy in this purple ball is exhausted, the light shield can no longer be activated."
Lin Beichen explained to Mu Lingyun without any impatience.
Tonight's actions are not only related to whether the Mu family can leave the Seven Star Tomb, but also whether Lin Beichen himself can leave the Seven Star Tomb, successfully pass this test, and enter the final fourth level.
"Oh, so that's what it's like." Mu Lingyun nodded gently as if he understood.
Mu Hongling's beautiful eyes flashed at the side. Listening to the conversation between the two, she couldn't help but become very interested in the purple ball in Lin Beichen's hand. However, as if she had thought of something, she asked: "Master Lin, how can you refine it like this?" Why don't you do more? If this thing is so powerful, you can just refine one."
Hearing this, Lin Beichen's mouth twitched and he couldn't help but roll his eyes at Mu Hongling and said, "Do you think the light shield generated by this thing can cover thousands of people?"
"If it can cover thousands of people, it's still called a light mask. It should be renamed a giant screen."
"The purple light shield generated by this thing can cover hundreds of people at most."
As he said this, Lin Beichen couldn't help but reveal a bitter smile.
To be honest, he can also arrange a magic circle that can cover thousands of people, but the cost is too huge. Maybe after setting it up, he will have to pay for all the middle-grade spiritual crystals that he got with great luck. Build on this.
Moreover, with his current state of not having any spiritual power, time would not allow him to set up such a huge magic circle.
This is a huge project. If there is no spiritual energy to protect the object, he will be killed just by running.
Therefore, making this kind of magic circle that can cover hundreds of people is very cost-effective and very suitable for the current situation.
But even making this kind of thing took him several days. During those few days, his rest time was very little. He was so focused on it that he didn't even bother to take a rest while rushing to work.
"I'm very curious, why do you have so many strange things? Are everyone on the Cloud Shadow Continent like this?" Mu Hongling curled her lips and asked curiously.
"Tch, do you think there are many geniuses like me in Cloud Shadow Continent?" Lin Beichen raised his eyebrows, showing a surprisingly arrogant look, and then continued: "And I know a lot of things, not just Regarding this, I'm afraid you will worship me when you get to Cloud Shadow Continent, and I won't be responsible at that time."
"Tch, narcissist!" Mu Hongling rolled her eyes at Lin Beichen and said in a disdainful tone.
Although she showed great disdain, there was an imperceptible brilliance in her beautiful eyes.
Lin Beichen smiled and did not continue to bicker with Mu Hongling. Instead, he turned his head to look at Mu Lingyun who was looking at him with a strange expression. After pondering for a moment, he said: "Master Mu, please give me the order. Let every one hundred and eleven people form a group, and let one of you who you trust be the leader of this group, and hand over the control of this purple ball to him."
With that said, Lin Beichen handed the remaining eight spirit beads into Mu Lingyun's hands, keeping one in his own hand.
In times of crisis, he still needs to rely on this thing to protect the people of the Mu family behind him.
"You will ask the group leaders to confirm again later. Everyone is clear about their tasks and must not make mistakes. Once one person's purple stone is placed in the wrong position, the entire formation will fail. of."
"Also, please remember to tell the leaders of these groups that if there is a crisis, they can directly activate the defensive mask. They must ensure the safety of everyone in the group and ensure that this time the formation of the magic circle is completed perfectly. "
Lin Beichen told Mu Lingyun all the things he was worried about.
"good."
Mu Lingyun took the purple ball from Lin Beichen, nodded heavily, and then called several senior members of the Mu family behind him to explain what Lin Beichen had just said, word for word.
After receiving the instructions, several people hurriedly began to explain to the people below according to what Lin Beichen had told them.
"Okay, let's get on the road. There are still two hours left, and it's almost midnight. We have to speed up a little bit. If we miss this time, the strength of the dragon-shaped creature will be restored."
Lin Beichen looked forward, his eyes firming up.
This action can only succeed, not fail.
If it failed, the Mu family wouldn't have that much money to recruit people, and he couldn't think of any other way to kill the dragon-shaped creature.
The group of people continued to walk in the mountains in a mighty way, but this time, they were not lined up in a long queue, but divided into ten groups, echoing each other.
Lin Beichen, senior members of the Mu family and others were in one group, and the remaining 1,000 people recruited were divided into nine groups.
After walking for more than an hour, Lin Beichen, the leader of the group, stopped when they saw a towering mountain peak.
"Mr. Lin, this is the peak where Sun Moon Lake is located. Sun Moon Lake is halfway up the mountain. Should we go up directly now?" Mu Lingyun stared at this peak that seemed to stand between heaven and earth, and his tone was quite heavy. asked.
Lin Beichen also had a solemn look on his face at this moment and said: "Let's go, just go up. The strength of that thing should be gradually declining now, and it shouldn't notice us. We just need to be careful."
"By the time our troops reach the mountainside, the time should be just right. Remember, once any unexpected situation occurs, the leader of each group must summon the defensive mask as soon as possible. I'm not just talking about this. Being attacked by the dragon-shaped creature, the terrain here is extremely superior, and the essence of the sun and moon is too strong, so I don’t know if there will be any other dangers."
Speaking of this, Lin Beichen couldn't help but look up at the night sky and saw that the moon's light had gradually become very faint.
"Okay, I'll tell you to go down immediately and ask these people to pay attention." Mu Lingyun nodded heavily after hearing this.
"Then keep walking, be careful but also hurry up, don't miss the moment."
After saying that, Lin Beichen headed towards the mountains.
