The path of cultivation is to go against the will of heaven. It is not only a fight for life against heaven, but also a fight for life against people. Therefore, there are often grudges and entanglements between cultivators and sects, and they are constantly entangled with each other.
The emergence of the Qiankun Palace has become an excellent opportunity for many people to seek revenge.
The grudges and hatreds between the righteous sect and the evil sect are self-evident. Both sides are willing to beat people's brains into dog brains as soon as they find an opportunity, and the current scene naturally becomes an opportunity they don't want to miss.
The righteous sects and the evil sects huddled together and fought recklessly in the large square outside the Qiankun Palace. All kinds of magic weapons and spells flew everywhere, and broken arms and limbs were scattered everywhere. Often, as soon as a person killed an enemy, he was immediately killed by another enemy. For a while, the square turned into a meat grinder, with shouts of killing and screams.
In addition, there are various personal grudges not only between the righteous and evil paths, but also within the righteous and evil paths, and among the independent cultivators.
A casual cultivator tried his best and used every possible means to finally kill his mortal enemy. But before he could be happy for a moment, he was targeted by another enemy. The opponent's firepower output made him breathless for a while. Just when he was about to wait for an opportunity to counterattack, a long spear suddenly stabbed from the side, and his heart was pierced through.
However, at the moment before his death, he saw the two people who attacked him at the same time fighting each other.
Two righteous disciples from different sects stood back to back, fighting with the evil disciples. After finally defeating the enemy, one of the disciples was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but felt a chill in his stomach. He looked stiffly at the righteous disciple who had just fought side by side with him, but found that the man had a grim smile on his face and said, "Do you remember the Blue Heart Grass you snatched from me? I'll give you a life in exchange for one of the immortal herbs, and you won't lose anything!"
Two female disciples from the same demon sect killed each other without mercy. People who didn't understand the situation couldn't help asking others, and then they knew that the two female disciples were both in love with the eldest brother of the sect. The two of them fought openly and secretly for the favor of the eldest brother, but now they have officially torn their faces and fought each other.
But they didn't see that not far away, the senior brother they had a crush on was looking at them with a cold face, without a trace of warmth in his eyes.
There was constant fighting in front of the Qiankun Palace Square, and it was in chaos. When the elders of the major sects saw this situation, they could only worry in vain, but they had no power to intervene. The Qiankun Palace's restrictions were spread throughout the basin, and they had no way to intervene. They could only secretly pray that their young people could stand out in this fight.
Liang Wei had found this rare opportunity, and naturally did not want to miss it, so he ordered his fellow disciples to attack Tang Fei with all their strength. Tang Fei's cultivation was almost gone, and he had almost no power to fight back against such an overwhelming attack. But he was not an easy opponent after all, and with some backhands, he managed to defend himself for a while. Then, Liu Shou, Deng Jingyun and Feng Shao attacked one after another, taking all the attacks from Ziqing Holy Land.
Liang Wei attacked Tang Fei with his sword, but was stopped by Liu Shou. Although Liu Shou was the youngest among them, his fighting power was surprisingly high. After just one encounter, he killed Liang Wei and forced him to take a defensive position. While defending himself, he shouted angrily: "What benefit did Tang Fei give you that was worth your life for him! What he gave you, I can also give you, and you can also gain the friendship of the Purple Purity Holy Land!"
Liu Shou said coldly: "You talk too much nonsense."
Although Liang Wei was not strong enough, he could temporarily fight Liu Shou on equal terms with all his strength. But he knew very well that he could not hold on for long. Turning his head, he cast his gaze at the Purple Purity Saint Murong Pianpian and said angrily: "Murong Pianpian, have you forgotten what your Murong family promised me? If you don't take action now, I will see how you will explain yourself when you return!"
Murong Pianpian's face flashed with struggle, but in the end she could only sigh helplessly. She raised her hand, and a blue ribbon grew in the wind, and after a moment it became dozens of feet high. Faintly, the sound of waves and tsunamis could be heard coming from it.
Feng Shao saw this and immediately rushed forward, using a Tidal Sword Technique. This Tidal Sword Technique evolved from the waves and tides, and was the same as Murong Pianpian's attack. The two of them attacked each other, and for a while they were at a stalemate.
In the fierce fight, Feng Shao said loudly: "Miss Murong, are you really going to fight with us?"
Murong Pianpian said calmly: "The arrow is on the string and must be shot."
Feng Shao smiled slightly and said, "Is it the arrow on the string, or is it beyond your control? The Murong family is using you as a bargaining chip, are you willing to accept that?"
"What if I am willing? What if I am unwilling? Since I am born into the Murong family, I naturally have to put the family's interests first!" Murong Pianpian said coldly.
"What a good thing! You have to start a business for the sake of the family's interests! But have you ever thought that if the Murong family continues like this, it will only bring disaster to itself? Is the opportunity in the eyes of the Murong family really an opportunity? Miss Murong, I advise you to think carefully and don't make a mistake!"
Hearing Feng Shao's words, Murong Pianpian's eyes flashed with hesitation, and her hands slowed down. Feng Shao saw that his words had taken effect, and he persuaded her: "Miss Murong, if you really want to do good for the Murong family, you shouldn't be so loyal. You should have your own judgment on everything, instead of blindly following the family's orders!"
Murong Pianpian smiled bitterly and said, "You don't understand at all!"
Feng Shao was about to say something else when he heard Liang Wei angrily say, "Murong Pianpian, if you let him go again, you must think about the consequences!"
Murong Pianpian's face was extremely ugly. She took a deep breath and said to Feng Shao: "Thank you for your kind advice, Mr. Feng, but there are too many things in this world that are beyond our control!"
After saying that, she pinched her fingers to make a magic gesture, and the blue ribbon expanded again, and then it roared towards Feng Shao like a raging sea!
Feng Shao's face darkened, and he said coldly: "In that case, don't blame me for being presumptuous! Although the Sea Soul Ice Ribbon is amazing, I am not afraid of it!"
Before he finished speaking, Feng Shao stretched out his hand and a beautiful lotus appeared in his hand. The lotus was about a foot in diameter and surrounded by four leaves. Murong Pianpian's face changed immediately when she saw it. Just as she was about to speak, Feng Shao waved his hand and the petals and leaves of the lotus immediately dispersed and reassembled in the air. Exuding vigor and vitality appeared in Feng Shao's left hand.
"Green Lotus Jade Blade! How can you have the Green Lotus Jade Blade!" Murong Pianpian said in a lost voice.
Feng Shao smiled slightly: "Miss Murong, you can guess why this Green Lotus Jade Blade is in my hand!"
After that, Feng Shao held the Green Lotus Jade Blade in his left hand and the Golden Crow Sword in his right hand. The two swords combined, one attacking and one defending, and in an instant, Murong Pianpian was suppressed. The other disciples of Ziqing Holy Land saw that Murong Pianpian could not resist, so they had to join forces to attack Feng Shao. But Feng Shao used the Super Sea Sword Technique, and no matter how many people came from the other side, he actually had the upper hand on the scene.
Most of those who were able to participate in this expedition to the secret realm of Qiankun Palace were talented. Even if they were used as chores, they would be considered geniuses in a small sect. But with so many people attacking Feng Shao at the same time, he was completely suppressed and could only defend himself but not fight back. If Feng Shao didn't want to do it to the extreme and left some room for his men, I'm afraid that several people would have died on the spot in a few moments.
But if you look at the scene, the disciples of Ziqing Holy Land were in danger, and their lives depended on it. In just a few moments, several people were injured by Feng Shao.
Several disciples could not help but shout at Liang Wei, "Brother Shengzi, stop fighting! The Sect Master's instructions are more important!"
They didn't dare to say they couldn't win, so they had to use the title of the head to pressure Liang Wei. After all, if he continued to stubbornly hold on, then forget about entering Qiankun Palace, and everyone might as well die here!
At that time, Liang Wei had already been beaten by Liu Shou without any chance to fight back. Liu Shou was now a disciple of Shura Dao, a serious demon, so it was reasonable for him to kill a disciple of the righteous path. So he was merciless, and all his moves were killing moves, aiming directly at Liang Wei's vital points. In just a short while, Liang Wei was chopped in many places. Anyone could see that he could not hold on for much longer.
Liang Wei had already been complaining in his heart, but because of his face, he was unwilling to say anything like retreating. When these people asked him to withdraw, he immediately said to Liu Shou: "I have something important to do, so I can't get entangled with you! Those who are capable, let's compete in Qiankun Palace!"
Liu Shou sneered: "Don't bother. You're going to die anyway. What's the difference between dying outside and dying inside?"
Liang Wei was furious: "Boy, do you really think I'm afraid of you?"
"If you are not afraid, then let's fight to the death here!"
While he was talking, Liu Shou inflicted many more wounds on him. Liang Wei struggled to hold on, and was about to die under Liu Shou's sword, when suddenly a white light suddenly lit up from the direction of Qiankun Palace, instantly sweeping across the entire basin!
The blinding white light instantly deprived everyone of their vision. Even in a life-and-death battle, everyone still involuntarily closed their eyes. The next moment, everyone felt dizzy.
At this time, the elders of the major sects who were watching the battle around the basin were shocked. Because they clearly saw that when the dusk dissipated and the Qiankun Palace was completely revealed, the entire Qiankun Palace was shrouded in a dazzling white light. After a moment, the white light dissipated, and all the cultivators in the square, along with the entire Qiankun Palace, disappeared without a trace!
This situation has never happened before!
All the monks who were watching could not help but look at each other in shock.
Where on earth did the Qiankun Palace go?
——————————
When Feng Shao came to his senses, he immediately felt something was wrong.
Where is this place?
Before coming in, Feng Shao remembered clearly that it was past the middle of the Si hour, which was about ten o'clock in the morning. The sky was as clear as a mirror, with no clouds in sight. But now, when he looked up, he saw a sky full of stars.
In the intelligence collected previously, there was no mention of the environment in Qiankun Palace being like this.
Looking around, the fog was thick and there was no one. Everything was silent and there was no sound. For a moment, Feng Shao even felt that he was the only one left in the world.
Something is wrong. Something is very wrong.
Being separated from Liu Shou and the others was not a good thing. After all, the Son of Luck was, in a sense, a kind of amulet. As long as he was in the same team with them, at most he would gain less, but there was basically no danger to his life. Now that he was alone, Feng Shao had to think of another way.
Fortunately, Feng Shao had made sufficient preparations before coming in.
He casually put the Green Lotus Jade Blade back into the storage ring, and when he reached out again, a compass appeared in his hand. This compass is both a tool and a magical instrument. In addition to identifying directions, it can also survey feng shui and seek benefits and avoid dangers.
The reason why Qiankun Palace was listed as one of the ten forbidden areas was because there were too many formations in the palace and they were too powerful. If you didn't have the ability to break the formations, you would be killed instantly after entering. The formations were a very profound subject, involving the five elements, the movement of the stars, feng shui and other sub-disciplines, so a compass was a must.
The best compass is the Tianluo Star Plate, one of the Ten Treasures of the Universe and one of the Three Treasures of the Heavenly Gang. It can be used to survey celestial phenomena, identify directions, and also has the ability to temporarily set up formations. If used well, there is almost no formation in the world that cannot be broken.
Therefore, the Tianluo Star Plate is the magical weapon most coveted by all the formation masters in the world.
The compass in Feng Shao's hand was made by Xue Li, the master of the Fire Refining Hall. Its quality was naturally far inferior to that of the Tianluo Star Compass, but compared with ordinary compasses, it was still a good magical tool.
Feng Shao first used a compass to compare the celestial phenomena, and then he found something wrong.
Today is September 20th, but the stars in the sky are obviously not for this time. Feng Shao counted with his fingers and found that the celestial phenomenon was actually May 14th.
What does this time represent?
Feng Shao used the compass to survey while thinking in his mind. After a while, he found the answer.
The outer formation of Qiankun Palace is the positive and negative twenty-eight constellations formation, which is naturally closely related to the astrology. If you want to break the formation, you must find the correct node at the specified time.
September 20th is autumn, while May 14th is summer. To break the formation according to the time of September 20th, one must start with the White Tiger Seven Mansions. But if one breaks the formation according to the time of May 14th, one must start with the Vermillion Bird Seven Mansions.
May 14th is the day of Meng Zhong's reunion. Breaking the formation requires starting with the Vermillion Bird's Wings. Comparing the stars in the sky, Feng Shao quickly found the location of the Wings, and then began to look for nodes according to the method of breaking the 28-star formation.
But after searching for a while, Feng Shao gradually found something wrong. He could not find the node of the formation at the location where the Gui Su was supposed to be. Instead, another node of the formation appeared not far away on the other side. Feng Shao counted with his fingers and was shocked to find that it was the White Tiger Pleiades.
How come the directions are all wrong?
Feng Shao had no choice but to stop and frown to think.
Since he had been able to find the Vermillion Bird Wings, the idea of breaking the formation on May 14th should be correct. However, the sudden appearance of the White Tiger Pleiades added some variables to the formation. According to the compass, his location was indeed in the south, but the appearance of the western constellation was simply a joke on the celestial phenomena.
Could it be that the person who set up the formation for Qiankun Palace used the compass incorrectly?
This thought only flashed through his mind, and Feng Shao threw it out of his mind. If the formation of Qiankun Palace could be wrong, then there would be no right formation in the world. The one who was wrong could not be the formation, but himself.
After thinking for a while, Feng Shao suddenly realized that he had made a mistake. Originally, today was September 20th, and he should start from the White Tiger Stars. But the image in the sky was May 14th, so he should start from the Vermillion Bird Stars. Now that the Vermillion Bird Stars and the White Tiger Stars appeared alternately, perhaps it meant that he needed to alternately find nodes based on the two time standards.
If you think about it this way, it makes sense.
But another thing doesn't make sense.
Even the positive and negative twenty-eight constellations formation is not arranged like this! This is only in the Qiankun Palace. If someone dares to use this method to set up the formation in other places, they will be laughed at to death!
If you rashly modify the celestial phenomena to set up the formation, not only will you fail to achieve the effect of setting up the formation, but it will also easily disrupt your own formation. You don't need others to break the formation, you will mess it up yourself.
After ruling out the possibility that the formation was placed incorrectly, the only possibility that Feng Shao could think of was that this was not a simple positive and negative twenty-eight constellations formation, and it was even possible that this was not this formation at all.
This variant of the sect protection formation is based on the Twenty-Eight Constellations Formation. If it is not the positive or negative Twenty-Eight Constellations Formation, then it can only be another kind of formation.
Thinking of this possibility, Feng Shao suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
Could it be the Liuhe Twenty-Eight Constellations Array?
The traditional twenty-eight constellations formation has a total of thirty-one nodes. In addition to the twenty-eight constellations occupied by the four spirits, there are also the three central spheres, namely Taiwei, Ziwei, and Tianshi. Generally speaking, the twenty-eight constellations formation is based on the three spheres, and the positive and negative twenty-eight constellations formation is no exception. But if the twenty-eight constellations formation is combined with the six-combination formation, it will be another matter!
The Liuhe formation has six nodes, namely Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, Black Tortoise, Teng Snake, and Gou Chen. The twenty-eight constellations formation is combined with four of the nodes of the Liuhe formation, combining odd and even, with infinite variations, and the difficulty of breaking the formation suddenly rises to a new level.
So what Feng Shao is facing now is to break two formations at the same time, namely the Twenty-Eight Constellations Formation and the Liuhe Formation.
The key to cracking the Liuhe formation is to find Teng Snake and Gou Chen, and these two key nodes are in the center, while the key node of the 28 constellations formation is the central three envoys. If the two are combined, the possibility of Teng Snake and Gou Chen combining with the central three envoys is very high.
So the question is: Tengshe and Gouchen correspond to which one or which ones of Taiwei, Ziwei and Tianshi respectively?
Even though Feng Shao was quite accomplished in formations, he still had a headache facing the difficulties ahead. What was even worse was that after he calculated the formations again, he discovered that the stars in the sky had changed!
From May 14th to May 25th!
Although it was only a very subtle change, for someone like Feng Shao who had done extensive research on formations, the change was easily discernible to the naked eye. After re-finding the position based on the newly changed constellations, Feng Shao helplessly discovered that the formation nodes on the ground had also changed.
This is trouble.
Feng Shao calculated secretly in his mind and found that the time of the astrological signs changed by one day every four to five minutes. After further calculation, Feng Shao finally made a new discovery.
The stars in the sky actually condense a year's changes into one day. If you divide a day into 360 parts, each part is four minutes!
And Feng Shao had another guess.
According to the current changes in the stars, it will sooner or later coincide with the real stars. At that time, Feng Shao would not have to think about how to find ideas to break the formation from both the Vermillion Bird and the White Tiger. He only needed to start from the White Tiger.
But there is a very serious difficulty in achieving this.
The time to break the formation was only four minutes. If no way out could be found within four minutes, then the next opportunity to break the formation would have to wait a day.
Feng Shao couldn't help but sigh.
Who came up with this formation? It doesn't give people a chance to break it! Although all the people who set up the formation are trying their best to not give others a chance to break it, this is too abnormal!
Helplessly, Feng Shao had to sit down where he was and wait for the changes in the stars.
At this time, it would take nearly four hours, or eight hours, to wait for the correct astrological sign. Feng Shao could not sit there for such a long time. He began to calculate the formation silently, trying to pass through the formation as quickly as possible after the time came. This kind of calculation is like playing chess, which requires one step to be calculated ten steps ahead. It is not only cumbersome, but also requires extremely high ability of the person who breaks the formation.
Feng Shao thought he was quite good at breaking formations, but it was still a headache for him to calculate such formations. Fortunately, modern mathematics is much more refined than ancient mathematics, and it is much easier to calculate than the ancients. With the help of modern mathematics, Feng Shao gradually figured out which direction to take at each step, and finally determined the correct route.
Four hours passed quietly.
When Feng Shao finally figured it out, he began to wait for the right time to come. The moment the moment came, Feng Shao immediately jumped up and ran straight to the direction he had calculated before without hesitation.
First came the White Tiger, then the Black Tortoise, then the Azure Dragon, then the Vermillion Bird…
The twenty-eight constellations passed by in a moment. After walking through the twenty-eight constellations, Feng Shao finally arrived at the location of the central three enclosures smoothly.
It is also the position of Tengshe and Gouchen.
But what surprised Feng Shao was that he thought that after entering the central hub, he would have to figure out the corresponding relationship between the Teng Snake and the three central celestial palaces. However, the moment he stepped into the central hub, he felt dizzy. When he regained consciousness, he was shocked to find that he had come to a mountain and water farmland.
In front of him stood a middle-aged man, looking at him with a smile: "You are finally here."
