"Leave it to me."
Hua Mudan also felt that soul searching was more direct.
What you get in return might be false.
But the Soul Search is definitely real.
Peony flew to the Fourth Elder.
Fourth Elder Wen Yu's expression changed.
She seemed about to do something, but was once again suppressed by the peony.
She couldn't move her body at all, and could only watch helplessly as Hua Mudan pressed her snow-white hand onto her head.
The Soul Searching Technique is activated.
ah!
Fourth Elder Wen Yu screamed in agony, his face contorted in pain, his eyes rolling back...
A moment later, the soul search was completed.
After reading the memories of the Fourth Elder Wen Yu, the Flower Demon Leader Hua Mudan was stunned, then sneered, "This Demon Sealing Master Ye Chen can not only enslave demons, but also enslave people. How interesting."
Beside Gu Jian, Feng Yantong's gaze turned icy upon hearing this.
Ye Chen can actually enslave people?
No wonder so many people are loyal to him, no wonder he is called the Lord.
A murderous intent kept surging in Feng Yantong's heart.
Gu Jian, looking as if he had expected this, said to Peony, "Commander Peony, get to the point. What did you see?"
The flower fairy leader, Peony, nodded.
She looked at the vast waters behind her and said, "This formation is called the Eight Gates Gui Water Holy Spirit Formation."
"Ye Chen already knew the name of this formation and had studied it. So, after he arrived, he led the Supreme Elder of the Misty Sect and many other powerful figures into the formation."
Gu Jian asked again, "Are they planning to break the formation?"
The flower demon leader, Peony, said, "No, a Saint-level formation isn't so easy to break. It will take a considerable amount of time. Their plan isn't to break the formation, but to enter it and seek opportunities. Each area within the formation holds the opportunities they desire..."
"Um!"
Gu Jian nodded. Just like the Flaming Sacred Mountain, this vast body of water must also hold extraordinary opportunities.
But the most extraordinary opportunity must be the Vast Sacred Stele and the Sacred Demon within it.
Under the sky, the experts from the Spirit Control Sect and the Heavenly Sword Sect were in an uproar.
They never imagined that Ye Chen knew about this Saint-level formation so early on.
However, they were not told.
What Ye Chen told them was to test the waters with their own bodies.
They used to admire him immensely.
“How could Junior Nephew Ye do such a thing? We agreed that the three sects would join forces.”
"That's right, they said they'd test the waters with their own bodies, but they were just lying to us!"
"Junior Nephew Ye, are you trying to use us as cannon fodder by doing all these things?"
"It's quite possible. This person is truly despicable."
"I'm afraid he wants us to hold off the demon army of the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom while he goes inside to search for treasure..."
"But why do the elders of the Misty Sect refer to Ye Chen as their master?"
"I don't know. Ye Chen is so highly regarded in the Misty Sect, it would be more reasonable to call him the Holy Son."
"..."
A series of sounds rang out.
Ye Chen's reputation plummeted.
Both the Heavenly Sword Sect and the Spirit Control Sect were very dissatisfied with Ye Chen.
Gu Jian looked at the Sheep Demon Grand Preceptor and asked, "Grand Preceptor, have you heard of this formation?"
The Sheep Demon National Preceptor, dressed in a Taoist robe, looked like an old charlatan.
It stroked its white goatee and nodded, saying, "Strategist, this demon has heard of you."
"The Eight Gates Gui Water Holy Spirit Array is dominated by water. It consists of eight gates and is further divided into eight areas. These are the Open Gate, Rest Gate, Life Gate, Death Gate, Shock Gate, Injury Gate, Block Gate, and View Gate..."
"Among them, the Open Gate, Rest Gate, and Life Gate are auspicious gates. The Death Gate, Shock Gate, and Injury Gate are inauspicious gates. The Block Gate and View Gate are neutral gates."
Gu Jian was surprised and laughed, "Grand Preceptor, you know quite a lot. How come I didn't notice it just now?"
The Sheep Demon Grand Preceptor smiled awkwardly and said, "The array formations in the world are strange and ever-changing. Saint-level array formations are even more mysterious. Even the most skilled array master would find it difficult to identify a Saint-level array formation in a short time."
Gu Jian nodded. As a formation master himself, he naturally understood these principles.
Gu Jian glanced at the vast expanse of water and said, "Now that the formation has been identified, is the Sheep Demon Grand Preceptor confident in breaking it?"
The Sheep Demon National Teacher said, "Now that we have identified it, as long as we give the old demon enough time, we can break this formation."
"But since Ye Chen prepared in advance and has already entered the formation, I wonder if he will make it in time."
"If the formation is not broken yet, Ye Chen will have already obtained the opportunity within the formation, and we will probably fail at the last minute."
Gu Jian narrowed his eyes, pondered for a moment, and said, "In that case, let's enter the formation first, follow Ye Chen's footsteps, and catch up with him as soon as possible. Or perhaps we can find the Vast Sacred Stele before him."
The Sheep Demon Grand Tutor said, "Strategist, that's what I think too."
"Um!"
After discussing the matter, Gu Jian asked Hua Mudan, "Commander Mudan, you just searched Ye Chen's soul. Do you know which array gate Ye Chen entered through?"
Hua Mudan said, "It seems to be a place called the Gate of Life."
Gu Jian nodded.
The eight gates of the Eight Gates Gui Water Holy Spirit Array correspond to eight different dangerous areas.
The birth canal is the safest.
Gu Jian looked at the Sheep Demon National Teacher: "Since Ye Chen went out through the Gate of Life, we should also go out through the Gate of Life and catch up with him as soon as possible."
The Sheep Demon Grand Preceptor said, "Leave it to the old demon. It should be found in about an incense stick's time."
Hua Mudan asked curiously, "Grand Preceptor, why don't we just go through the place where Ye Chen just went in? Why do we have to wait another incense stick's time?"
She had searched the soul of the Fourth Elder, Wen Yu, and knew which position Ye Chen had entered from.
The Sheep Demon Grand Preceptor shook his head and explained, "Commander Hua, you are unaware of this. Saint-level grand formations are constantly evolving and changing every moment. What was once a gate of life may now be a gate of death."
"Going in rashly will only lead to certain death. Therefore, we can only try to find a new way to enter the gate of life."
"Understood."
Hua Mudan nodded, thinking that it was better to leave professional matters to professionals.
The Sheep Demon Grand Master took out a bronze mirror engraved with the Eight Trigrams.
Then, he made hand gestures and began chanting a spell.
His goatee moved without wind, as if he were making calculations like an old charlatan.
Hua Mudan glanced at the Sheep Demon Grand Tutor, then looked at the Fourth Elder Wen Yu, who had been subjected to soul-searching, and asked, "Strategist, what should we do with this person?"
Gu Jian glanced at it and casually said, "Kill him."
What?
Fourth Elder Wen Yu's face turned grim.
The experts of the Misty Sect were also greatly alarmed.
"Li Bai, I'll fight you to the death!"
Fourth Elder Wen Yu roared.
Although she was clearly restrained, a powerful aura suddenly emanated from her body.
She broke free of the restrictions, and her cultivation level rapidly increased.
"Prepare to die!"
She roared and charged toward Gu Jian.
Everything happened so fast, and she was so close to Gu Jian that not a single demon soldier reacted in time.
Peony was also taken aback.
Just then, a chilling fox cry suddenly rang out.
Ugh~
Waaah~
Waaaaah~~~
