Bai Yu looked in the direction Jiang Deng pointed.
Only then did they discover that a huge teleportation array had appeared on the ground where they were.
The teleportation array almost covered the entire area. At the center of the array, there were seven light spots shining like stars. They were arranged just like the seven stars in the Big Dipper: Tianshu, Tianxuan, Tianji, Tianquan, Yuheng, Kaiyang and Yaoguang.
Zuo Ningxin and others who arrived here early were gathered at the eye of the needle to study the formation.
"This formation..."
Jiang Deng frowned.
Even though she had studied battle formations extensively in her previous life, and could even easily set up a heavenly-level battle formation, she was not sure she could set up this one.
Because, this Big Dipper formation is a true divine-level formation.
Even in her previous life, she couldn't set it up, so she didn't know much about this formation.
"Bai Yu, do you have any relevant information in your notes?"
Hearing this, Bai Yu began to flip through the notes in his hand. "Before I came here, I interviewed all the survivors of the Puppet Cult who had come to the Heavenly Demon Ruins last time and learned some information."
"This formation is the Big Dipper Formation, created by the First Demon Lord and a group of powerful beings. Besides sealing away some ordinary demons, the most important purpose is to seal away four powerful demon generals. In their lifetime, they were four of the twelve demon generals under the command of the Demon Lord."
"To reach the area where the four demon generals are, you must rotate the Si Nan at the center of the formation. Everyone who enters the ruins will be teleported to the area corresponding to the Si Nan's direction. Once you find a way out, you can return to the starting point. Then, rotate the Si Nan again to enter the next area..."
After hearing Bai Yu's explanation, Jiang Deng touched his chin and said, "Interesting."
Shen Hui, who was standing by, also heard Bai Yu's explanation. She waved her hand and said, "Wait, I will go and discuss with the Left Protector to see which demon general's area is best to go to first."
However, before Shen Hui could get over, Zuo Ningxin had already started turning the Si Nan on his own initiative.
The spoon-like Si Nan, which was suspended above the center of the formation, began to rotate. After turning a few circles, its speed gradually slowed down, and finally the handle of the spoon pointed to the south.
"The handle of the dipper points in the direction of the sun, and the whole world is summer. This is the Fuguang area!"
Bai Yu had just finished speaking while referring to his notes when the formation suddenly activated. With a dizzying spin, everyone present was teleported to another area.
When Jiang Deng opened his eyes, the scene before him had changed.
It was pitch black everywhere.
The darkness was so dark that even spiritual consciousness could not penetrate it, and all that could be seen was sticky black.
“…Where is this place?”
Bai Yu quickly flipped through the notes in his hand and wondered, "That's not right. This is different from what those seniors told me!"
Jiang Deng asked, "So what are they talking about?"
"They said the area was full of demon soldiers, and as long as we killed them all, we could find a way out, but..."
As he spoke, Bai Yu's face also showed a troubled expression.
It has only been a few hundred years since the last time the Demon Ruins were opened. Could it be that huge changes have taken place in the Demon Ruins during these few hundred years?
"not good!"
Zuo Ningxin, standing in the center of the crowd, said solemnly, "Under this ten-thousand-year-long seal, the Demon General's consciousness hasn't completely disappeared. It's simply fallen into a deep sleep. To protect the Demon General's remains, the area covered by his consciousness has become a self-contained domain."
field?
Hearing this, Jiang Deng's expression turned grim.
The magical power of domain is only possessed by cultivators in the Mahayana realm. Even though the demon's body has fallen, its consciousness is likely to remain incomparably powerful...
Simply put, in the area covered by the demonic consciousness, it is an absolute god!
What can these low-level monks use to fight?
Everyone also realized this, so they all looked at Zuo Ningxin, completely treating her as the backbone.
The leader of the Dragon Roar Sect, a young man named Niu Zhuangzhuang, anxiously asked, "What about the Left Protector? What kind of realm is this?"
Zuo Ningxin said solemnly, "In the nightmare realm of the Nightmare Demon General, anyone who enters without permission will sink into a terrible nightmare, and in the dream they will see the things they least want to see happen..."
"Then I wonder what the Left Protector has to say?" the Heavenly Demon Sect elder also inquired, "How can we break through this realm?"
"Elder, what's so difficult about this? Why don't we just not sleep?"
The one who spoke was a fifteen-year-old girl from the Demonic Cult. She had wheat-colored skin and freckles on her face. Despite her age, her cultivation had already reached the Nascent Soul stage. She must be a rare genius.
"Lu Xiaotian! It's fine if you act mischievously in the Demonic Cult, but don't act so presumptuously in front of the Left Protector!"
The elder scolded the girl named Lu Xiaotian, then continued to look at Zuo Ningxin, waiting for her reply.
"It's not like we can choose not to sleep if we want to."
Zuo Ningxin didn't argue with Lu Xiaotian, the little kid. She shook her head and sighed, "...So, there's no solution."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone present felt sleepy for no reason.
“Ahaha—”
Yawning sounds came one after another.
When you hear someone around you yawning, you will yawn subconsciously too. So people who gather together will influence and torture each other.
Even Zuo Ningxin's eyes gradually became dull, and the others who were not as strong as her were naturally not much better. One by one, they were swallowed by sleepiness and fell asleep while standing.
Ginger lanterns are no exception.
——
When he opened his eyes again, Jiang Deng found himself in an extremely familiar scene.
It is surrounded by earth walls and the environment is dark and damp.
Her arms were hung up by iron chains, and her body fell to the ground uncontrollably, with a faint pain in her back...
Her head drooped limply, her gaze fixed on the white altar beneath her. The blood gushing from her body blossomed into crimson plum blossoms on the snow-white altar...
Is this her underground palace in the Qiming Spiritual Realm?
Just as he realized this, a familiar voice suddenly sounded in Jiang Deng's ears.
"Master, do you remember what we talked about?"
Jiang Deng suddenly looked up!
What came into view were seven men walking slowly into the underground palace.
Each of them is tall and slender, with different looks. Some are handsome, some are cool and handsome, and some are stunningly beautiful... They are truly the best of the best. Taking any one of them out would cause quite a stir in the ten regions.
Looking at this scene, Jiang Deng felt strangely familiar...
"As long as you agree to become a Taoist partner with the seven of us, we disciples will release Master now."
The eldest disciple Lin Ye said sternly, "Master, you need to think carefully before answering."
