Chapter 1016: Stairway to Immortality
Jiang Feng and nine others stood in the center of the formation.
I couldn't help feeling a little nervous.
Looking forward to what changes will happen in the formation.
What will happen is still unknown.
This dusty formation has not been activated for hundreds of years.
The seven senior sisters held hands and gathered around the little junior brother, pulling his sleeves.
No matter what happens, I will never be separated from my junior brother.
This made Baili Xiaoyao, who was standing by, feel a little embarrassed.
It seems like he is a superfluous master!
Jiang Feng looked around carefully at the movements around him, ready to respond accordingly.
The shaking of the formation lasted for three or four minutes.
However, it eventually stopped.
Nothing changed, nothing happened.
"strangeness!"
"Why can't the formation be activated?"
Jiang Feng frowned.
The seven sisters and the master were also confused.
"Is the way we activated the formation wrong?"
"Or is there something wrong with the Dzi beads?"
"Or maybe this formation has fallen into disrepair and cannot be activated?"
"Why don't we try again? This shouldn't be the case..."
The senior sisters were talking about it.
I was nervously looking forward to it, but it was suddenly disappointed.
"It's time to use your wisdom."
"Let's study it more carefully."
Baili Xiaoyao said in a deep voice.
I thought there must be no problem with the Dzi beads and the formation.
Then the problem must be in the startup method.
Jiang Feng leaped up and landed on a large cauldron.
Pick up the Dzi bead in the groove and examine it carefully.
It was discovered that there were faint traces of strange text symbols on the Dzi beads.
This mysterious text looks somewhat familiar.
Jiang Feng jumped off the furnace with the Dzi bead in his hand.
The mysterious words were engraved on the side of the furnace.
"According to my reasonable guess, these heavenly beads should correspond to the furnace tripod in order to successfully activate the formation."
“But I can’t understand this kind of symbol at all.”
Jiang Feng said in embarrassment.
He stretched out his hand and grabbed all the dzi beads in the air.
Carefully study the text patterns above and try to match them with the patterns on the twelve cauldrons.
As it turned out, things were not as simple as he thought.
The patterns on the Dzi beads and the furnace do not correspond.
"There must be some pattern to these patterns. Let's study them carefully."
"Sisters, it's time to use your intelligence and talents."
Jiang Feng looked at his seven senior sisters.
"Twelve, could it be the twelve zodiac signs? Or the twelve earthly branches?"
"The twelve constellations?"
"The Zodiac?"
"Twelve months, twelve hours?"
The senior sisters began to make various guesses.
God damn, all the twelve zodiac signs are out.
That's not something from the ancient Dragon Kingdom.
"I think the twelve earthly branches are more reliable."
"The twelve earthly branches can correspond to the eight trigrams and directions."
"What we need to do now is to decipher these mysterious symbols."
Jiang Feng analyzed again.
Take the two Dzi beads and observe and compare them carefully.
It must be said that Dzi beads feel very comfortable to hold in the hand.
It is smooth and moist, and when you hold it for a long time, it takes on the temperature of the human body.
"Let me try to crack it."
Junior Sister Xiyao said seriously.
He then took out a pen and paper and drew down the mysterious symbols on the Dzi beads and the cauldron one by one.
This makes it easier for her to do comparative research.
"Come on, little sister!"
"You are the smartest among the seven senior sisters!"
Jiang Feng praised with a chuckle.
I know that Senior Sister is very professional. When I was looking for Dzi beads before, some of the secret rooms were cracked by her.
"Come on, Junior Sister!"
The other six sisters encouraged in unison.
When it comes to IQ, they all admit that they are inferior to their junior sister.
Xiyao's brain started working rapidly, and she studied and cracked the code carefully.
Jiang Feng and his companions were also not idle, helping to observe and analyze.
Baili Xiaoyao walked around the formation with his hands behind his back.
He saw that the formation was well preserved and had suffered almost no damage.
However, on the rock walls of the hollowed-out mountain, there were traces of various swords and knives.
This means that a fierce fight took place inside.
Looking down from the edge of the formation, there is a bottomless abyss!
Baili Xiaoyao was really curious, so he jumped down.
Use your Qinggong skills to climb down the wall.
After passing through layers of dark fog, I finally reached the bottom after an unknown number of minutes.
It was pitch black all around, and you couldn't see your hand in front of you.
Baili Xiaoyao turned on the flashlight for illumination.
The scene he saw left him stunned.
All I saw was the ground covered with white bones!
Judging from the degree of weathering of the bones, they are hundreds of years old.
He recalled that hundreds of years ago, there was a mortal who wanted to become an immortal but ultimately failed.
These piles of bones must be those of the people who failed hundreds of years ago!
Baili Xiaoyao also confirmed one thing.
Starting a large formation is indeed a very dangerous thing!
Thinking of this, he immediately used his Qinggong skills to climb upwards.
No matter what happens today, the safety of our disciples must be our top priority!
“I found the pattern!”
"Yes, it is placed according to the directions of the twelve earthly branches."
In just a few minutes, Xiyao understood the rules of the mysterious symbols.
She is such a little genius!
"Young Senior Sister is so amazing!"
Jiang Feng and the other six senior sisters immediately gave a thumbs up and praised him.
At this critical moment, it has to be Junior Sister!
"Eh? Where's the old master?"
Jiang Feng looked back and found that his master was gone.
I was so focused just now that I didn't pay attention to what the master was doing.
"The master is here!"
Baili Xiaoyao jumped out from the edge of the formation.
"Master, what are you doing down there?"
Jiang Feng asked.
"Just a look."
"Do you know what's down there? It's all bones!"
"So, you must be careful after activating the formation."
Baili Xiaoyao warned in a deep voice.
He has always been free and easy, and has never been so serious and cautious.
After saying this, he drew his sword again and stabbed it into the ground.
The sharp sword was unable to damage the formation at all.
This confirmed his inference that this formation was definitely not created by a mortal.
"Master, we can activate the formation now."
Jiang Feng said with a serious expression.
Then put the twelve dzi beads into the furnace in the corresponding order.
Immediately afterwards, the formation began to shake again.
Moreover, the patterns on the formation began to glow!
Finally, a beam of light was formed and shot straight into the sky!
The powerful force directly blew away the entire mountain!
The nine people standing on the formation were fine, and they could also enjoy the night sky.
"Look, the ladder to heaven!"
Baili Xiaoyao pointed his finger.
The light on the formation has begun to form steps.
Extending upwards, straight to the sky!
"Let's go and embark on the immortal road!"
Jiang Feng walked forward and took a step on the steps formed by the light.
It's no different from stepping on normal stairs!
The seven senior sisters and the master also followed closely with excited expressions.
The mood of the crowd was completely indescribable.
Because climbing the immortal ladder means they will enter another completely new world!
But at this moment, two huge golden lights flashed in the night sky.
"You mortals, still dream of becoming immortals?!"
