Tian Xiaoding and others entered the magic array in the town for the second time with the intention of hunting for treasure. But unexpectedly, he discovered that the ancient building that Xiao Ding had destroyed before was still standing in place, as if nothing had happened.
Xiao Ding and others felt strange. In order to prove that what he said was true, Xiao Ding led everyone towards the lake.
There is not much distance between the two. After turning a few streets, the group of people came to the corridor next to the lake hand in hand.
This time, because everyone was running Qingxinshu and other techniques, their minds were very clear. Therefore, none of them felt any changes on the corridor.
The lake water was slightly turbulent, and Xiao Ding did not see his figure in the lake again. However, the people on the shore could feel the all-devouring aura in the lake.
Xiao Ding found a relatively low-level flying knife weapon from the trophies in the jade pendant space and struck it into the lake.
Under the control of Xiao Ding, the flying knife weapon quickly stabbed towards the lake. However, as before, when the flying knife touched the lake, Xiao Ding immediately felt in his consciousness that he had lost any connection with the flying knife magic weapon. And the flying knife pierced directly into the lake and disappeared. Even if you use your spiritual consciousness to explore the lake, you still can't find any clues.
Because even the spiritual consciousness will suddenly disappear out of thin air after contacting the lake water, just like a mud cow entering the sea, without a trace.
Everyone was very surprised when they saw such a situation.
Zhang Xiaodie said: "Ms. sir, the treasure map only marked the location of the treasure at the arch, but it didn't indicate the specific location?"
Xiao Ding guessed: "I guess the person who drew this treasure map either really had a treasure hidden here, and then arranged a magic array to protect the treasure from being taken away. Or there was no treasure here, and he He just wants to trap those who covet his treasures here and never be able to get out."
Zhang Xiaodie asked doubtfully: "But if there is no treasure, he is just here to trap people. What good will this do to him?"
Xiao Ding replied: "Perhaps, he originally wanted to attract people here, and then trapped him in the formation, killing people and grabbing treasures. However, judging from this illusion formation, he should be a high-level formation mage. A person with such status, He probably wouldn’t do that thing of killing people and grabbing treasures. This is a bit hard to understand. Is he really here to hide treasures?”
As he spoke, Xiao Ding shook his head. He also couldn't figure out the details.
Others, like Xiao Ding, cannot understand the true purpose of the person who drew the treasure map.
Before the treasure is found, no one can say with certainty that there must be no treasure here, but no one can say that there must be a treasure.
Whether it exists specifically or not, we still need to find out.
So everyone, led by Xiao Ding, started searching everywhere in the magic array of the castle hand in hand.
Although the castle illusion array is a magic array, Xiao Ding and others have used spells such as the Heart Clearing Technique in advance, so they are not afraid of being enchanted by the illusion.
If the illusion array loses its psychedelic effect, it also loses its due power. There won't be much danger to those who enter the formation.
However, the fog in the illusion array will still have a certain hindering effect on those within it. Fortunately, although the scope of everyone's spiritual consciousness has been greatly reduced, it is not completely absent. Even if the detection range of the spiritual consciousness is very small, it is enough to explore nearby paths.
Moreover, when you walk on the street, you don't need to go door to door and enter all the houses on both sides of the street. You can search all the houses on the roadside through your spiritual consciousness.
Although the various houses in the castle have strange shapes and look very strange and terrifying. But these houses are basically empty, with nothing inside.
While walking slowly on the street, everyone used their spiritual consciousness to explore the houses on both sides of the street. Look for any treasure hidden inside.
Fortunately, everyone is a practitioner and has the ability of photographic memory. Therefore, they can remember the streets they walk every time and will not walk through them again.
The area of the castle magic array is neither small nor large. In order to prevent them from getting lost, the seven people always walked hand in hand on the street.
After searching in the magic array of the castle for more than an hour, everyone returned to the original place - the corridor on the shore of the lake.
They have walked through all the streets within the castle's magic array and searched the houses next to all the streets. Then the result was nothing.
In fact, the seven Xiao Dings not only searched all the houses in the formation through their spiritual consciousness, they even did not miss the corners in front of and behind the houses. They searched for any location where something could be hidden. In the end, I still came back empty-handed.
Could it be that, as Xiao Ding guessed, the person who drew the treasure map was just trying to attract people, trap them in the formation, and then kill people and seize the treasure?
However, after Xiao Ding and the others fell into the illusion of the formation, no one came forward to kill them?
What is going on?
Zhang Xiaodie said with some disappointment: "Ms. sir, maybe what you said is right. There may really be no treasure here, and that treasure map is a lie..."
Xiao Ding stared at the lake and said thoughtfully: "This..., that's not necessarily..."
Ouyang Qing snatched the treasure map from Zhang Xiaodie and said, "I'll take a closer look at this map to see if there's anything we haven't noticed..."
As she spoke, she began to look at the treasure map carefully again.
Tian Xiao'e said to Xiao Ding: "Brother, weren't you still saying before that there might not be any treasure hidden in this magic array?"
Xiao Ding nodded and said: "That's what I guessed before. But, after we just searched around, I feel that there may really be some treasure hidden in this illusion array..."
Ou Muyun also asked from the side: "Brother Tian, why do you say that?"
Before Xiao Ding could answer, the senior sister standing at the end of the team said, "Junior Brother Tian must have found some clues, otherwise how could he say this..."
Xiao Ding glanced at Senior Sister, nodded approvingly, and said, "What Senior Sister said is true. I did find some abnormalities, but they are not really any clues."
Zhang Xiaodie said anxiously: "Ms. sir, please tell me quickly, what is going on?"
Xiao Ding calmly stared at the lake and said, "Look, in this illusion array, except for the lake in front of us, we have searched all the other places and found no treasures that can be hidden." place. But this lake, why can't we use spiritual consciousness to explore it? Moreover, any magic weapon or magic weapon that attacks it will be swallowed by it into the lake, lose contact, and disappear. Think about it, everyone. Are the people who aren’t setting up the formation intentionally protecting this lake?”
After listening to Xiao Ding's analysis, the senior sister immediately agreed and said: "Hey, Junior Brother Tian, don't say anything. After listening to what you said, I think your analysis is quite right..."
Ouyang Qing also took her eyes out of the treasure map and said to Xiao Ding: "What you said does make some sense. Could it be that there are treasures hidden in this lake?"
Zhang Xiaodie also suddenly said: "Ms. sir, your brain is better. After you said this, I also feel that the treasure must be hidden in this lake..."
Tian Xiao'e frowned and said: "Brother, even if your guess is correct, we don't know what the situation is at the bottom of the lake and whether there is any specific danger. Even if there are treasures in it, we still can't take it out. ah?"
Xiao Ding nodded and said: "That's true. Now, even if we suspect that there are treasures hidden at the bottom of this lake, we have no way of knowing what dangers there are at the bottom of the lake. Then, we need someone to go into the water and test it out. Otherwise, we can also choose not to want those bullshit treasures and just turn around and leave. As long as we destroy that ancient building, we can leave this illusion array."
But the senior sister hurriedly shouted: "We've already come, what's the last step left? If we leave directly, why do we need to come in and go all this time? Now that we're here, we should get to the bottom of things before we leave. What's the matter? , are you worried that there is danger at the bottom of the lake? If you don’t dare to go, then let me go into the bottom of the lake to explore..."
Lu Tianshuo, who had been silent all this time, heard the elder sister saying that he wanted to go into the lake. He quickly said: "If you plan to enter the bottom of the lake, then I will go with you, otherwise I will not worry..."
Ouyang Qing rolled up the treasure map in her hand and said: "It's just a lake, why bother bothering the senior sister and his wife to go there in person? I can just go down and explore it alone..."
Xiao Ding saw a few of them fighting over who could enter the bottom of the lake to explore. He quickly stopped him and said: "We don't know what dangers there are at the bottom of the lake, so we'd better not act rashly. None of you can Don't go down. If someone goes down, I will go down personally. If it were any of you going down, I wouldn't be relieved..."
When the senior sister saw that Xiao Ding said that she wanted to enter the bottom of the lake in person, she quickly said: "Junior brother Tian, you are the leader of our team and the backbone of all of us. If you go in person, what should we do if any danger occurs?"
Xiao Ding said calmly: "If I go there in person, I will have an advantage over any of you entering the bottom of the lake. First of all, I have many ways to save my life, and my cultivation level is higher than all of you. If I encounter danger, I have multiple escape methods. Secondly, after I go down, if I am swallowed by the lake and cannot escape, you only need to go to the ancient building and destroy it, and all of us will immediately escape from this illusion..."
