"So, what now?"
Xiao Bai clung to the wooden window railings and tried to look outside. If this wooden window was replaced with an iron one, it would look like tears behind an iron window!
Ever since she was caught, that hateful guy sealed her mouth with a silencing spell, and without saying a word, he subdued and tied her up, searched her body, and sent her directly to Murong An.
She didn't even have time to say "it's unfair".
No matter how you look at it, she feels like the "rabbit" that is being waited for! And now, she has become the rabbit under the steps!
"I guess they have been targeting you for a long time!" The book spirit said in a telepathic voice.
"I think so too. Otherwise, it's just too coincidental! I always feel that I'm implicated by Murong An. Murong An! Murong An! Come out here. What is your grudge against that guy? Why do I feel like he arrested me because of you?"
Murong An's voice came from his sea of consciousness: "He is the disciple of an elder in the sect. That elder and my master have always been at odds, so he always likes to cause trouble for me. He always wants to be the first to do anything."
"Grab first? What was there to grab?! The central formation was almost ready! You were almost becoming sacrifices!"
Murong An's voice choked for a moment, then he said calmly, "He's rushing to die first. Maybe he wants to be the first to enter the central formation."
Xiao Bai:········
She didn't understand at all, absolutely not at all, and yet there were people who were eager to die!
"He didn't know the true purpose of the central formation. He thought it was to draw the spiritual energy from the continent and eventually converge into the central formation. Once inside the formation, the spiritual energy would flow into his body, and his cultivation would rapidly improve."
"But didn't you say that all of you were sacrifices trained by the sect to seal the rift between the two worlds?"
"Yes, the sacrifices are us orphans, and he is the elder's son."
Xiao Bai:········
"So, what you're saying is that a portion of the sect will enter the central formation, but they won't be used as sacrifices to seal it?"
Murong An sneered: "That depends on whether his meridians can withstand it."
Xiao Bai:·······
"Okay, so how am I going to get out? If I'm locked up here forever, I'm going to die!"
Xiao Bai paced back and forth in the cell in frustration. This cell seemed to be built to imprison monks, so with her level of cultivation, she could not destroy the walls and windows at all.
What should I do? There are iron walls all around, so I can’t dig a tunnel! Suddenly, Xiao Bai looked at the ground and paused.
Maybe this can be done...
While Xiao Bai was trying hard to find a way to escape from prison, the foundation of the central formation on the top of the mountain had been built, and even the formation above it had been almost drawn.
When the last stroke of the formation was put into place, the entire formation emitted a dazzling white light that shot straight into the sky.
As the white beam of light rose, the five elements formations in the five directions on the continent outside the fairy island also lit up one after another. Five beams of light in red, yellow, green, silver, and blue shot straight into the sky. The five elements formations on the entire continent were activated together with the central formation. The spiritual energy on the continent gathered on the light beams of the five elements formations at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The originally thin spiritual energy gradually gathered into the Five Elements Formation and gradually condensed into a white spiritual energy ball. The spiritual energy ball rose around the Five Elements light column, gathered in the sky, and then gradually gathered towards the central formation, and finally gathered into the central formation along the white light column of the central formation.
I saw that in the empty space above the central formation, groups of white spiritual energy gradually gathered.
The disciples surrounding them were all excited.
The Five Elements Formation and the Central Formation were successful!
However, as the spiritual energy from the outside world was absorbed by the Five Elements Formation, the spiritual energy on the fairy island began to become less and less, and finally even the spiritual energy in the bodies of the cultivators began to be absorbed by the Five Elements Formation.
The disciples with lower cultivation levels have already felt the pain of the spiritual energy being sucked out of their meridians, and are gradually beginning to be unable to bear it.
"Master?"
"Elder, what's going on?"
“My meridians hurt so much”
Some low-level disciples who were unaware of the situation began to wail.
"Murong An, take some of your disciples and quickly enter the central formation!"
After Elder Qizhen finished speaking, he led the other five elders into the central formation. They asked Xiao Bai and others to sit cross-legged in meditation in the center of the formation, and then the five of them formed a circle and sat cross-legged in meditation outside the formation.
"Murong An, remember, once you start absorbing spiritual energy, you can't stop, so you must try to control the speed at which you absorb it. Don't absorb it all at once, otherwise your meridians and dantian won't be able to withstand it, and you will explode and die. Just hold on until all the spiritual energy on this continent is gathered, and then seal it..."
Elder Qizhen was unable to continue speaking after this.
"Master, we know." Murong An said lightly, and then began to sit cross-legged in meditation.
Elder Qi Zhen sighed, and then said to the remaining disciples outside the formation:
"You will sit cross-legged and meditate behind us. The spiritual energy inside the formation is too dense, and you will explode and die. So, you must place your hands on our shoulders one by one outside the formation and do your best to absorb the spiritual energy. As long as you can hold on to the end, you will survive. This is the only way for you to survive!"
After Elder Qizhen finished speaking, he led the five elders to sit cross-legged at the edge of the formation. They intended to use themselves as a bridge, transmitting the spiritual energy within the formation to the disciples outside. This way, as long as they could maintain a balance between absorbing and draining spiritual energy, they would be able to survive.
"Master! I also want to enter the formation, why are you stopping me!"
A man's voice sounded from outside the formation. If Xiao Bai was there, he would definitely recognize that this was the man who caught her.
An elder in the formation turned around and shouted, "What are you doing? Come sit cross-legged behind me!" This elder was the man's master and also his father.
The man had no choice but to sit cross-legged outside the formation, and put his hands on the back of the master in the formation to start absorbing spiritual energy.
So when Xiao Bai arrived, he saw this scene:
Murong An led a group of people to sit cross-legged in the central formation with their eyes closed in meditation. Some of the disciples had a look of twisted pain on their faces. Outside Murong An and others, a circle of monks who were obviously older and more advanced sat cross-legged. Behind these older monks, the disciples put their hands on the back of the previous disciple one after another, and even the disciples had an expression of enduring pain and gritting their teeth.
So, is this a seated version of Eagle and Chicken?
Also, where's that Nightmare, no, that Sect Leader?! Why isn't he here?!
