“Why is this happening??”
After entering the village, as expected, the density of the gray fog in the whole village had increased to a higher level. Even at the village entrance, which was originally the safest place, it was already filled with fog, and the atmosphere of the whole village became more and more weird.
Zi Buyu was very puzzled by this scene.
"Even if there is a formation left by Senior Ren Wang here, it doesn't make sense for something to go wrong all of a sudden. It's been ten thousand years and everything has been fine. Could it be that something happened to Senior Gu Yan?"
Xu Feng rolled his eyes: "Brother, can you please use your brain? What could possibly happen to Senior Gu Yan?"
Just after taking a few steps, Xu Feng stopped Zi Buyu.
Because not far in front of them, a small wooden horse appeared. Although there was no one on it, it was shaking regularly and making a "creaking" sound from time to time.
"Well, it seems that with the changes in the gray fog, the danger level here has also increased, Talisman." Xu Feng stretched out a hand towards Zi Buyu.
Zi Buyu has made quite a few talismans during this period of time. It seems that his talisman master skills have improved a lot. He even has more than ten green talismans.
"This is the Golden Sun Talisman. When attached to a weapon, it can produce a kind of Yangyan, which is much stronger than the Small Thunder Talisman."
Zi Buyu said to Xu Feng.
Xu Feng attached the talisman to his meteorite spear, then took a big step forward and headed straight for the wooden horse. Before he got there, the spear in his hand turned into a black shadow with golden flames and swept across the wooden horse.
With a loud bang, the wooden horse shattered into countless wood chips that flew in all directions. Puffs of golden flames exploded and burned in the air, and a faint scream lingered in the air at the spot.
"Great! The power has indeed increased. Let's speed up!"
Xu Feng gave Zi Buyu a thumbs up, then turned into a ray of golden light and rushed towards the courtyard.
Sure enough, the road ahead was full of dangers, but the strength of the two had increased during this period, and with the powerful talismans, they arrived at the courtyard almost safely.
The gate of the courtyard had already been opened, and the divine general Gu Yan was sitting at a stone table in the courtyard sipping tea.
"Coming?"
Seeing the two people walking into the courtyard, the old man smiled and motioned for them to sit down in front of him.
"Hello, senior." After Xu Feng and the other man bowed, they sat aside and the old man personally made tea for them.
"Have you noticed that the gray fog has changed?" the old man asked with a smile.
Zi Buyu nodded, then asked in surprise: "You know?"
Gu Yan chuckled and said, "Every three years, the suppressed gray fog will be released once. You just happened to encounter it. It's nothing serious."
Hearing this, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that they were overthinking.
"Are all the issues resolved?" Gu Yan looked at Xu Feng with concern.
Xu Feng nodded and said respectfully: "Senior, part of the problem has been solved. The rest is not something I can care about now. There is nothing to do for now. Thank you for your guidance and concern."
Gu Yan waved his hand and said, "Don't be so polite. It's just that I rarely see the younger generation of the human race, so I'm curious about what's going on outside."
Xu Feng nodded, thinking that he was just being sentimental, so he turned around and asked, "I came here because I was pressed for time and couldn't have a good chat with you before. Now that I have some free time, I hope you can help me and others solve our problems."
Gu Yan smiled slightly: "I already knew you would have many questions, but I haven't communicated with the outside world for thousands of years, I'm afraid there are many changes that I don't know."
Xu Feng shook his head and said, "It's okay. Senior, just speak frankly. I can only judge. Besides, Brother Zi is also a person who is well-versed in history and the present. With multiple verifications, I believe that many of the doubts that linger in my mind will be understood."
Zi Buyu straightened his chest slightly, looking confident.
Xu Feng clasped his fists in greeting, then asked, "My first question is about the formation left by Senior Human King. If the formation is intact, I'm afraid the gray fog won't be released every three years, right? Please enlighten me, Senior."
Gu Yan laughed loudly upon hearing this: "I thought you were most concerned about the secrets from ten thousand years ago, or the whereabouts of the Human King. I didn't expect that you are most concerned about this formation right now? It seems that you are indeed a leader among the younger generation. The first thing you think of is the safety of the Xuanjie cultivators."
Xu Feng nodded slightly and didn't say much in response to the old man's praise.
But the old man saw through his thoughts at a glance.
Zi Buyu, who was standing by, came back to his senses. It turned out that Xu Feng asked this question because he was concerned about whether this formation would endanger the Xuan Realm. Suddenly, a feeling of inferiority arose in his heart. The first question that came to his mind was how the Dao weapon Cangmang War Spear of the Human King was incomplete... and where the remaining parts were.
Scratching his head to hide his embarrassment, Zi Buyu listened attentively.
"You are right," Gu Yan confirmed Xu Feng's concerns, "After ten thousand years, this formation has begun to show many errors and omissions. Time is the most ruthless thing in this world. Except for some precious divine materials that can withstand the passage of time, everything in the world will decay because of time."
"Even if this formation was set up by the Human King himself, under the original circumstances, this formation could last for 20,000 to 30,000 years before completely collapsing. However, now it can only last for another 300 to 500 years."
Gu Yan sighed.
Xu Feng and Zi Buyu looked at each other, their faces changed drastically. Xu Feng frowned and asked, "Senior, what happened that caused such a huge time difference?"
Gu Yan looked up at the sky.
"This heavenly order...has changed."
"What?!" Xu Feng was shocked.
Zi Buyu, who was standing by, was so frightened that he jumped up.
"Has the way of heaven changed?"
Both of them found it hard to believe what the old man said. The Way of Heaven is the rule of this world, the natural law of heaven and earth. How could the sign-in change?
"Whether you believe it or not, I can feel that there have indeed been some subtle changes between heaven and earth. These changes are not concrete, and you may not feel them clearly. Even if I tell you about this now, you will not understand. When you can stand at the top of the cultivators in this world, you will be qualified to understand this matter."
Gu Yan shook his head and looked at the two of them expectantly.
"But both of you have good talents. You need time to hone your skills. You should have time to come up with a way to save this formation before it collapses."
Xu Feng could only nod regretfully. He understood what the old man said, but the news was really too shocking.
"I can't find it, but I heard such an answer. I need to digest it carefully. Senior, can you tell us about the situation of the human race ten thousand years ago? The human race today has completely forgotten the history of ten thousand years ago, or it has been tampered with by others. I want to know the truth."
"Alas, I never thought that such a huge change would happen in ten thousand years. Well, I will tell you about the general situation of the human race during its heyday."
