"Yes, what you're seeing is the effect of the formation. Doesn't it look like an endless primeval forest?"
Mo Lan took another picture of the pine tree, and in the blink of an eye, the scene before her eyes returned to its original state: messy shrubs, sparse trees, and randomly placed rocks.
"Master, this is truly amazing! You know so much!" Lei Zi suppressed his excitement. With this maze formation, if any fool were to wander in, they would surely be trapped and die here.
Mo Lan nodded, accepting the praise without any modesty, "You've memorized all the directions I led you to?"
"Yes, boss."
“From today onwards, the formation is activated. If you go to the wrong place, you will also be trapped inside.” Mo Lan said, and solemnly instructed Lei Zi again, “You are in charge of security here, so you must be absolutely familiar with the terrain, so that you can come and go freely even with your eyes closed.”
"This pine tree is the key point of the entire maze formation, and it is also the best position for you to guard the formation. If anyone ventures into the mountain rashly, there will be unusual activity here, and it will alert you immediately."
As she spoke, Mo Lan explained the special features of the array's core, the key points of opening and closing it. With caution, Mo Lan also let the two of them go in and try it out until they could enter and exit freely without any hindrance.
"Master, this kind of formation is truly mysterious. I used to think it was just a strange tale, but it turns out it can actually be presented." After circling the squirrel a few times, Han Shuang finally couldn't help but come closer, her cold eyes full of admiration.
"Actually, it's nothing much. As long as you understand the theories of Yin and Yang, the Five Elements, and the Eight Trigrams, and combine them with the arrangement of constellations, it's like the rhyme that those sages often say: One begets two, two begets three, three begets all things. Taiji begets Yin and Yang, Yin and Yang beget the Four Symbols, the Four Symbols beget the Eight Trigrams... It goes on and on, with endless changes."
Seeing the two listening attentively, Mo Lan couldn't help but curl the corners of her lips. "Although everyone can recite a few lines of these familiar rhymes, truly mastering them and using them for one's own benefit still requires some hard work."
"Huh? So those rhymes that those fortune tellers always say are really that powerful?"
Lei Zi sighed. He used to despise those charlatan fortune tellers, but he never expected them to be so cunning.
Han Shuang glared at Lei Zi's expression and said, "Don't overthink it. Being able to memorize something and being able to use it are two different things."
"Hehe..." Lei Zi scratched his head, looking embarrassed.
"Alright, go back now. From now on, you can lead a group to pretend to patrol, but focus on this area. As long as you don't run into anyone who knows what's going on, there won't be any problems."
Mo Lan patted the dust off her hands. One advantage of the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams Formation is that the same formation can be broken by different people with different characteristics. If you don't understand the preferences of the person who set up the formation, it will be difficult to break it.
Of course, those who enter formations imbued with personal characteristics will encounter many unexpected surprises and frights.
After the security was set up, Mo Lan finally had some free time. While watching everyone busy, she would occasionally lend a hand.
Meanwhile, after Qin Su and his group arrived at the east side of Tianjiao Peak, they first led people to survey the terrain and began to arrange mining matters.
"No wind. Divide the force into smaller groups and send our people into the mountains for protection. Safety is absolutely paramount." Qin Su calmly instructed from inside a simply erected tent.
"Yes, Master,"
