Chapter 659: Dragon Trapping Formation
There was a flash of reluctance in Yuan Si's eyes, but he finally made up his mind and quickly formed seals with his hands.
The master had repeatedly warned that Xiao Changheng must not be allowed to approach the palace, especially at this critical moment.
As he moved, the air around him suddenly condensed, and several talismans flew out from his sleeves, turning into golden lights, which quickly intertwined in the air to form a huge talisman formation.
"Trapped!" Yuan Si shouted in a low voice, and the talisman formation instantly unfolded, like an invisible giant net, trapping Xiao Changheng inside.
The talisman formation shrank rapidly, and Xiao Changheng felt that the air around him seemed to solidify, and his body movements became slow.
"Your Highness, I'm sorry!" Yuan Si's voice seemed to come from far away, a little distorted by the talisman array, "Please wait here until the matter is over."
Xiao Changheng's face was gloomy, and he raised his knife to chop, but there seemed to be a tremendous resistance in the formation. The air in the formation seemed to become sticky, and countless golden lights were like chains that wrapped around him from all directions, trying to imprison him completely.
Fine beads of sweat oozed out of Xiao Changheng's forehead, and the black jade sword in his hand seemed to become extremely heavy and almost difficult to hold.
Yuan Si walked slowly to the front of the formation while pinching his fingers, and spoke in a calm voice:
"Not to mention you, even Master Uncle and the others can't easily break free from this dragon trap. I advise you to save your energy."
Xiao Changheng was supporting himself with his long sword, veins bulging on his forehead, and his hands holding the sword were clenched so tightly that the knuckles turned white.
His master Kong Zhao said that with his current strength, he could dominate the younger generation of Xuanmen, but he was still suppressed by this formation and had no power to fight back. Moreover, there was a familiar aura on the talisman that formed the formation.
He stared at Yuan Si, gritted his teeth and said word by word:
"These talismans were given to you by her..."
Yuan Si's face paused and he remained silent.
When the master assigned him the task, he gave him these talismans and also taught him the Dragon Trapping Formation.
He was quite surprised at that time, because although these eight talismans formed only a small formation, it was indeed a heavenly-level formation.
Why would we need a formation of this level just to stop an ordinary person who cannot practice?
After thinking it over, he just thought that the master sympathized with his dedication and was looking for an excuse to teach him skills and give him these dragon-trapping talismans.
He was very happy for a while.
But he didn't expect that when they fought today, he really couldn't stop the spineless Regent, and was forced to use the Dragon Trapping Formation.
At this moment, Xiao Changheng was really trapped in the formation, and Yuan Si became more and more shocked.
The array talisman was made by the Lord herself and infused with her spiritual power. Setting up the array does not require Yuan Si's own spiritual power to be consumed. If the person trapped is a small character with little power, then he will not have any pressure.
However, at this moment, beads of sweat were already oozing out of Yuan Si's forehead. He almost had to use all his strength to suppress the Regent in the formation in order to stop him from taking action.
He clearly can't practice, so why is he so difficult to deal with?
He was confused and felt an irrepressible reluctance, but the situation forced him to give up and he had no time to think too much. He could only concentrate on activating the formation with all his strength.
In the formation, a hint of scarlet appeared in Xiao Changheng's eyes.
He knew Yun Qingqing's style of doing things very well. As long as she said it was no problem, he would unconditionally believe that she could solve everything.
But this time she said nothing.
She entrusted the people of the entire city to Xiao Changheng, leaving him busy dealing with the plague and without time to think too much, and she also found a perfect reason for him to stay outside the palace on his own accord.
If he hadn't happened to meet Feng Yin today, he would probably still be kept in the dark.
Xiao Changheng half collapsed on the ground, holding the knife tightly to support his body, and biting the tip of his tongue hard.
Two thousand years ago, Yun Qingqing sacrificed herself to end the world-destroying catastrophe.
Two thousand years later, the people of the imperial capital were in danger of extinction, waiting for her to save them.
Xiao Changheng didn't dare to think about what she was hiding this time, but he would never sit idly by.
"Hao...Qing!" He gritted his teeth and spat out two words.
There was a burning sensation on his right wrist, and white light suddenly burst out. Xiao Changheng slowly stood up, closed his eyes and concentrated, and formations emerged in his mind.
These formations were different from those he learned from the secret book given by his master. Instead, they suddenly appeared in his mind out of thin air one day. It was also from that time that he began to discover his talent in formations.
Later, Hao Qing made some movements from time to time, and he gradually realized that it was probably because Hao Qing recognized him as his master.
These formations were numerous and sophisticated. Even though he studied them whenever he had time, he had only studied a small part of them so far.
Xiao Changheng quickly browsed through the formations in his mind and soon locked onto one that he had remembered but had not had time to check out - it was indeed the Dragon Trapping Formation!
He perked up and concentrated on analyzing it.
Yuan Si's face was solemn. He didn't expect that Xiao Changheng could still stand up. He immediately held his breath and concentrated on injecting more spiritual power into the formation.
However, Xiao Changheng remained unmoved. He stood upright like a pine tree with his eyes closed, with white light swirling around him, as if he was no longer under any pressure from the formation.
After a moment, he suddenly opened his eyes, and his sharp gaze swept across the entire formation. He quickly locked onto a position and took a few steps. The white light on his wrist gradually shrank, spreading from his body like a vine, entwining around the blade, blending into it and disappearing.
"break!"
Xiao Changheng swung his sword suddenly, and a dazzling white light suddenly burst out from the black jade sword. The sword energy was like a rainbow, and the dragon-trapping formation made a crisp sound!
"What!" Yuan Si's pupils suddenly shrank and he looked at the scene in disbelief.
He never expected that Xiao Changheng could actually see through the core of the talisman formation!
The talisman formation collapsed instantly under the impact of the sword light, and the golden light scattered, turning into star points and dissipating in the air.
"This...is impossible..." Yuan Si's face turned pale and he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
Xiao Changheng's body suddenly felt lighter, and the feeling of restraint disappeared without a trace.
Without hesitation, he exerted force on his feet and rushed towards the palace like lightning.
