The corpse refiner stood up straight from the coffin, exhaled a breath of corpse gas from his mouth, and the cold breath formed a cloud of mist in front of him.
“Take down the sign.”
Chen Luo took a few steps back and controlled the corpse to rush forward.
The corpse roared, bent its calves slightly, and then leaped up, turning into a black shadow and rushing towards the plaque above the inn. The strong evil spirit wrapped around the zombie's roar, echoing in the silent space.
When the hands of the Silver Armor Corpse King were about to touch the plaque, his body suddenly paused, and a layer of gray-white mist emerged from the plaque. Then a burst of purple lightning gushed out from it and spread along the arms of the Silver Armor Corpse King.
The silver corpse king's body twitched violently in the air.
The body of the third-level corpse king trembled under this breath, and after a moment, it fell from mid-air with a "bang" and landed on the steps in front of the inn. His legs kept twitching and he temporarily lost the ability to move.
"A fourth-level magical weapon?"
Chen Luo, who had the chessboard, could tell the level of the plaque at a glance. Not only the plaque, but also the two lanterns next to it were the same. These three things were a whole. No matter which one you wanted to destroy, the other two would backfire.
'Small Three Talents Formation.'
The mummy brain gave a feedback.
Small Three Talents Formation?
These three things actually formed a formation. This inn is indeed troublesome, with formations within formations, one after another, and there is no telling how many arrangements are made in secret. This kind of scene is in line with the appearance of a Yuanying old monster's dojo.
"I didn't expect Brother Ning to be so generous as to use a fourth-tier magic weapon as the center of the formation. As brothers, I must share some of the burden with him."
Chen Luo raised his hand and picked up the corpse king who was still twitching on the ground.
Corpse cultivators are both very strong and very weak.
Their strengths lie in corpse refining, and their weaknesses also lie in corpse refining. As long as they find a way to counter corpse refining, corpse cultivators will be the weakest among the same level. On the contrary, if there is no corresponding method, then zombies will be unkillable monsters that can consume cultivators of the same level to death.
After collecting the refined corpse, Chen Luo tried several methods, even using a fourth-order chessboard, but the result was that he could not move the plaque on it.
These three things are connected together, and brute force cannot break them apart, let alone steal these magical instruments.
"I can only go back and reminisce with Brother Ning."
Chen Luo withdrew his gaze and couldn't help but sigh.
Go back into the inn.
All the methods outside have been tried. If you want to leave, you must find a crackable array eye. The quality of the plaque at the door is too high. With the help of the hanged brother and a few auxiliary brains, it is impossible to crack it for a while. This makes Chen Luo feel the importance of the array master's brain again. The level of the array master's brain on him is a little low. If he has a fourth-level array master's brain, how can these treasures be missed? So Fox Mountain must be visited.
There are too few high-quality brains.
After entering the gate, Chen Luo saw those frozen drinkers again.
Ning Chenye and that strange woman did not show up, and no one knew where they went.
Chen Luo stood at the entrance, observing every detail here. This place was the entrance to the formation, and as long as you came in, you would definitely appear in the hall. He and Gu Changkong and others had also stopped here when they came in before. The puppet that was damaged by Sikong Bo remained the same, with his right hand raised high, keeping the finger-guessing action.
'Water and wood belong to Yin, wood is hidden in the formation, water is exposed outside.'
Chen Luo looked at the drinks on the table, and the brains of the array masters in his mind were highly active. One hanged brother was not enough, and the remaining array masters' brains could also fill in the gaps.
If quality is not enough, quantity can make up for it.
When the number reaches a certain level, you can always find some loopholes that others cannot find. The mummy brain can also break the formation, but at this moment Chen Luo needs him to help him pay attention to the surrounding situation and prevent Ning Chenye from appearing at any time.
That madman wants to steal your things, so you have to be extra careful.
'Fire and thunder are yang, fire is visible in the formation, thunder is hidden in it.'
On the wall of the hall, an oil lamp flickered slowly.
The lights were on, but there was no light coming out. On the beams above the room, there were densely packed lightning patterns engraved. These lightning patterns formed a kind of carved mural, which was very beautiful. The purple lightning that the Silver Armored Corpse King had hit at the door earlier was transmitted from here.
The small three-talent formation is connected to the large formation inside. Breaking the small three-talent formation is equivalent to breaking the large formation inside.
"When yin and yang are balanced, everything is fine. If yin and yang are disturbed, the situation will be unstoppable."
Chen Luo looked around and ignored the formation here. The formation here was the same as the small three-talent formation, which was an extension of the inn's formation. Breaking it would only allow him to walk in the hall, which was meaningless to Chen Luo.
Walking around the hall, Chen Luo headed towards the kitchen.
He analyzed the hall and found a vein along the structure of the roof beams, which extended all the way to the kitchen.
After walking about twenty steps along the corridor, Chen Luo stopped and pushed the door into the house on the right.
It should have been a guest room, but after pushing the door open, I saw another corridor. This was a circular formation. If you walked along the corridor at the beginning, you would just loop endlessly. Inside the repeated wooden doors on both sides, one was the real passage.
After walking ten more steps, Chen Luo pushed open another door.
After pushing the door seven times in a row, he finally left the corridor and came to the back kitchen yard.
This is the small courtyard behind the inn, a square courtyard. On the right side, near the wall of the inn, there is a large amount of wood piled up. At the end, there is a stone stove with smoke coming out of it. A black wooden pot lid is placed on the iron pot, as if something is being cooked. In the corner of the yard, there is some dry grass piled up, which is the cheap fire starter that the kitchen likes to use the most.
As I walked into the yard, a gust of cold air blew towards me.
This is an open-air courtyard. Except for the area near the eaves on the right, the location of the well in the middle is open-air. Rainwater flows along the eaves into the courtyard, soaking a large area of soil in the courtyard. Due to the extremely cold temperature, a thick layer of ice forms on the surface of the soaked soil.
The evil wind and freezing rain that Chen Luo had seen in "Tu Zi Yuan" before also affected this place.
Click.
The feet stepped on the ice, making a crisp sound.
"What kind of formation is this?"
After walking two steps, Chen Luo stopped. He found that the air in the yard had become extremely cold, and even he felt a hint of chill. The iron pot that was constantly boiling on the stove was out of tune with the air in the yard. Under normal circumstances, it was absolutely impossible to ignite an open flame at such a low temperature.
'Someone.'
The mummy's brain suddenly gave a reminder.
Chen Luo stopped vigilantly, turned around, and found that there was a person behind him. This person was hunched over, like an old servant in an inn, holding a kitchen knife in one hand and a dead old hen in the other.
The man seemed not to see him. He walked past him, went to the stove, put down the old hen, picked up the kitchen knife and started chopping it.
"puppet?"
Chen Luo narrowed his eyes. He felt that the person in front of him was very similar to the drinker he had seen before. They were both puppets, and the information fed back by their spiritual sense was the same.
The old servant chopped very hard, and the sound was particularly clear in the small courtyard behind the kitchen.
Chen Luo watched for a while, then walked over and put his hand on the puppet's shoulder. This time his hand didn't even touch the other party. The old servant chopping the chicken was like a mirage, his shoulder twisted for a while, and Chen Luo's hand actually passed through his body.
"Illusion array."
Chen Luo raised his right hand, and the insect gourd appeared in his hand. A large number of black insects flew out of it and began to run around indiscriminately.
With the help of these insects, Chen Luo quickly found the node of the illusion array in the courtyard.
'Three steps left.'
'Fourth from the right.'
The formation master's brain quickly calculated the exit position based on the existing conditions. Chen Luo turned and walked to the side. When his feet were about to leave the yard, the old servant who had been chopping meat behind him suddenly raised his head and grinned at him.
"Please wait, your dish will be ready soon."
This guy.
Chen Luo's pupils shrank slightly, and he suddenly realized that the mummy's brain had just prompted "someone", not a puppet.
The old servant had no ill intentions. After saying this, he lowered his head and continued to chop the meat.
Chen Luo paused for a moment, then walked away.
Even if this person is a real person, he must be a madman. There is not a single fluctuation of true energy in his body, so he is not a cultivator.
With the mummy's brain in hand, Chen Luo didn't think that any cultivator in the Tiannan Region could deceive him.
The scene under his feet changed, and when Chen Luo stabilized his body again, he found that he was already outside the town. The gray town was lifeless, and the strange aura still enveloped the area, with no sign of dissipating.
It came out.
But not completely out.
Looking at the scene in front of him, an idea popped into Chen Luo's mind.
"Did Ning Chenye and that woman really create this place?"
Nascent Soul cultivator Chen Luo had also seen the Grandmaster Taixu Gu He of the Qionghua Sect. Although Gu He was a sword cultivator, as both were at the Nascent Soul level, Gu He's strength was definitely not weaker than Ning Chenye's. As far as Chen Luo knew, even the Grandmaster Taixu Gu He couldn't use the Nascent Soul Domain to cover such a large area.
Chen Luo thought of the strange inn.
"That inn, can't it be alive? Ning Chenye and that woman are just two tenants in the inn."
Once this thought came to my mind, I could no longer suppress it.
Thinking from this perspective, all problems can be explained clearly.
After walking for a while outside the town, just as Chen Luo guessed, this place was also shrouded in a large formation like an inn, making it impossible to get out. After going around in a circle, you would return to the original place.
This complex and overlapping formation was beyond Chen Luo's cognition, and the brains of several formation masters around him also went blank. Several brains with higher completeness began to grow, and their cognition of the formation began to improve.
Walking along the long street, Chen Luo saw a theater at the end.
There was a sound of "Yiyayaya" coming from inside, and he thought that the strange singing of the actors he heard before must have come from here.
Squeak
Chen Luo reached out and pushed open the gate.
The theater was not big, with six long benches inside, all empty, no one was there. On the high platform in front, an actor in costume was singing, waving his hands from time to time, making some movements that only appear in operas.
"puppet?"
Chen Luo walked to the front of the stage, looked at the actors singing, and asked. Since the inn appeared, these puppets have been impossible to distinguish. Instead of wasting time trying, it is better to ask directly.
This time the demon tribe is in deep trouble, and he feels it necessary to communicate with the big boss behind them.
If possible, he is willing to "abandon the dark and join the light". (End of this chapter)
