Chapter 256: Soul-Falling Formation (1)

As day and night alternated, golden light and blue flames soared alternately, bursts of black mist turned into waves that disturbed the peach petals in the sky, and the Peach Blossom Land was extremely lively for a while.

The ground was covered with a mixture of pink and white peach petals, piled up like a mountain, but it was already a lot smaller than when Luo Xuanyi had just taken it out.

The death energy reeled in at will, gathering the remaining materials. Luo Xuanyi spread her arms, and with the main flag, a total of eight blood, flesh, and bone formation flags were spread out in the air, silently dripping with green pus. In such a beautiful peach blossom forest, these eight formation flags gave the scene a strange and eerie feel.

Luo Xuanyi had already adapted to the strange appearance of the formation flags. She looked at the eight flags, and excitement welled up in her heart.

She exhausted all the more than 10,000 living souls in Xiaohe City, plus 6,000 spiritual herbs and 7,100 monsters. After five months of rotation in the Peach Blossom Realm, she finally refined five formation flags.

This shocking robbery of the cities beneath Longlan City was bound to trigger riots. Although Luo Xuanyi hadn't received any information from Master Ding Jing yet, she knew that strengthening her strength was her top priority. Therefore, she didn't experiment with extracting the core from the five formation flags, but instead diligently refined them according to the original ratio.

Now, she has the foundation to practice the entry-level eight-sided formation.

Luo Xuanyi glanced at the almost empty Ronggui, which only contained two pieces of golden living soul paper and a chess beast from the formation cultivator.

After using up all the living souls, he should find a time to replenish them, otherwise he wouldn't be able to use the Peach Blossom Realm. However, for the initial formation, Luo Xuanyi had hoped to practice outside of the Peach Blossom Realm. Although it would take a long time, it would be convenient for comparing star positions.

Scroll Qi stepped out of the Peach Blossom Land, and the scroll fell, which Luo Xuanyi tucked into her sleeve. She raised her foot to walk into the courtyard to observe the sky, but found that both inside and outside the house were dark.

Looking up at the half-broken eaves of the house, the sky was a brilliant purple, without a single cloud. Luo Xuanyi suddenly remembered that she had blown up half of the yard during her last formation and hadn't repaired it yet.

The ground was littered with broken stones and tiles, and a few beams protruded from a large, broken hole above his head. Looking through the cross-section toward the sky, Luo Xuanyi spotted several stars needed for the formation at a glance.

Luo Xuanyi tilted her head and pondered for a while, the death energy moved as she wished, condensing into a big palm that peeled off the other half of the intact eaves and threw it into the yard.

Now there was no need to leave the courtyard. Luo Xuanyi kicked the gravel aside, lifted her robe, and sat cross-legged on the ground. She had already memorized the eight star paths, but since she had just begun her journey in the art of formations, she didn't dare to be careless.

Lighting a stick of incense as a timer, Luo Xuanyi cleared her mind of all distractions, closed her eyes, and silently recalled the formation of the Soul-Falling Formation.

The Soul-Falling Formation in the Interstellar World is composed of eight flags, which correspond to eight stars, namely Xiuyang, Taixu, Yuanduan, Xihua, Youwei, Mizheng, Ningchan, and Zangliu.

The Eight Formation Flags replaced the eight stars in order to disrupt the rulership of the eight stars and deceive the way of heaven with false means so that the formation could take shape.

Xiuyang governs the spirit and soul; if it moves, it is easily disturbed; Taixu governs the universe; if it moves, the void and the earth will shift; Yuanduan governs benevolence and goodness; if it moves, goodness will be unclear; Xihua governs evil virtues; if it moves, evil will become uncertain; Youwei governs the intersection of yin and yang; if it disappears, ghosts and spirits will breed; Mizheng governs the union of gods and ghosts; if it changes, reincarnation will be lost; Ningchan governs a peaceful year; if it is disturbed, the years will be misplaced; Zangliu governs the real and the unreal; if it moves, the real and the unreal will be difficult to distinguish. Each of the eight stars has its own dominant principle, and the principles they govern are the principles that require changes to the Soul-Falling Formation in the Interstellar World.

Among the eight paths, the main flag holds a hidden meteor. Using the main flag's hidden meteor as the center of the formation, the false star is used to confuse the real and fake. The remaining seven stars, Xiuyang, Taixu, Yuanduan, Xihua, Youwei, and Ningchan, are then added in sequence to form a light array in the sky, projected onto the ground.

The fake stars cast a light array to pretend that the starlight is scattered, because they are fake stars and cannot be perceived by cultivators.

Luo Xuanyi gathered the starlight and reconstructed the formation on the ground. She stood up, hands behind her back, using her own dead energy as a guide, and took seven steps, matching the seven stars in the sky. The order of the formation underground was exactly the reverse of the seven stars in the sky, and there could be no mistake.

The false star hidden meteor position cannot be filled by starlight, and the center of the formation must be left empty. At this time, the two formations between heaven and earth have not yet fully connected, and the underground formation has no fluctuations. It is as if it was born naturally, formed naturally. Even a cultivator at the Divine Transformation stage cannot detect any clues.

Between the reflections of the stars of heaven and earth, as long as a Soul Master passed by, Luo Xuanyi could move Xiuyang Star with a single thought, shaking their spirit and soul, and replenishing them into the array's eye. Thus, the Inter-World Soul-Falling Array was formed.

Luo Xuanyi paused, gazing at the floor tiles before her. They were still covered in dust and rubble, devoid of any sign of anything unusual. If it weren't for her formation base still being able to sense the presence of the Soul-Falling Formation, even she wouldn't have been able to sense it with her death energy.

She didn't expect that it would be successful after just the first time she set up the formation.

In his sea of consciousness, the floating formation base remained motionless. Luo Xuanyi had comprehended 152 fragments of the formation's essence when entering the formation, making the formation base incredibly powerful and sturdy. With perfect understanding of the Eight Formation Flags' basic formation, constructing it would be a piece of cake.

Luo Xuanyi stepped out of the house and took stock. The Soul-Falling Formation was a circular formation with a length of approximately seven steps. From the ground where the formation was set up to the false star, it was within a range capable of capturing any soul master. This meant it could capture ordinary people, cultivators, and even wandering ghosts.

So, while the Soul-Falling Formation couldn't be changed, there was no time limit for setting it up in advance. Luo Xuanyi could set it up in advance and then guide the target through the formation's range.

Even if his spiritual awareness is strong, Luo Xuanyi can predict the opponent's route in advance and capture him in the formation without even showing his face.

But setting up the formation still took too long. It was completely dark, and Luo Xuanyi saw that the incense stick had burned out, and the ashes she picked up were cold. She was afraid that setting up the formation would take more than half an hour.

The winner was instantly determined in the battle. Luo Xuanyi only hoped that the Soul-Falling Formation in the Inter-World could be familiarized with it more often to speed up the formation setting time.

The Soul-Falling Formation of the Inter-World was operating silently. When the formation was taken back by Luo Xuanyi, even if she did not bring in the Soul Master to trigger the formation, she would still bear a disaster.

In that case, why not just capture a few townspeople to test the formation.

Taking advantage of the night, Luo Xuanyi leisurely stepped into Guhu Town. The only place in the town with lights on was the mayor's mansion, and the faint sound of stringed instruments could be heard. With a thought, Luo Xuanyi transformed into black mist and floated into the mansion.

First update~Thanks to the nameless person for voting for a monthly ticket~

These stars are all made up by me. There are no real stars like the Big Dipper in Sister Yi's world~ (In case I didn't make mistakes due to insufficient reference hh)
