Chapter 217 Chaos (Two chapters in one)



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. The leaves formed the hilt, and the petals gathered into the blade. In a moment, a long sword 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!

炫目欲盲的白光顷刻间便剥夺了所有人的视力。即便身处生死之战中,每个人仍是不由自主地紧闭双眼。下一刻,所有人便感觉一阵天旋地转。

而此时在盆地周边观战的各大宗门长老见状,却是不由得吃了一惊。因为他们清楚地看到,在暮霭散尽,乾坤宫彻底现身的一瞬间,整个乾坤宫就被一片耀眼的白光笼罩。瞬息之后,白光消散,广场上的所有修士连带着整个乾坤宫竟同时消失无踪!

这种情况,以前可从未出现过!

所有围观的修士不禁面面相觑,心中骇然。

这乾坤宫,到底去哪了?

——————————

当风绍回过神来的时候,立刻就觉得不对劲了。

这里是什么地方?

进来之前,风绍记得清清楚楚,当时的时辰可是巳时过半,也就是早上十点左右。天空明澈如镜,万里无云。可是现在,当他抬起头来的时候,看到的却是满天星辰。

在先前搜集的情报中,可没提过乾坤宫里的环境是这样的。

再看周围,雾霭茫茫,空无一人。万籁俱寂,杳无人声。有那么一瞬间,风绍甚至感觉整个世界就只剩下了自己一个人。

不对劲,太不对劲了。

跟刘狩他们分开,这可不是一件好事。毕竟气运之子从某种意义上讲,也算是一种护身符了。只要跟他们一队,顶多就是收获少点,生命危险基本是不存在的。如今落了单,风绍只得另想办法了。

不过好在,在进来之前,风绍已经做足了准备。

他随手将青莲玉刃放回到储物戒指中,再一伸手,手上已经多了一个罗盘。这罗盘既是工具,也是法器,除了可以辨别方向,还可以勘测风水,趋利避凶。

乾坤宫之所以被列入十大禁地,便是因为这乾坤宫中阵法太多也太厉害。若是没点破阵的本事,进去之后就是被秒杀的份。而阵法又是一项颇为高深的学问,涉及到了五行生克、星象运转、风水堪舆等分支学科,所以罗盘这个东西是必带的。

最好的罗盘,便是乾坤十宝之一,同时也是天罡三宝之一的天罗星盘。既可勘察天象,又可辨别方位,同时还拥有临时布阵的能力。若是用得好了,天下阵法几乎没有不能破的。

所以说,天罗星盘才是天下阵法师最梦寐以求的法器。

风绍手上的罗盘出自火炼堂堂主薛离之手,论品质自然远远比不上天罗星盘,不过跟一般的罗盘比也算是不错的法器了。

风绍先是用罗盘对照起天象,随后就发现不对劲了。

今天的时间是九月二十,但是天上的星象却明显不该是这个时间的。风绍掐指一算,发现这天象竟然是五月十四的。

这个时间又代表了什么呢?

风绍一边用罗盘勘测,一边在心中思考。片刻之后,他便找到了答案。

乾坤宫的外围阵法是正反二十八星宿大阵,自然跟星象密切相关。想要破阵,就必须要在规定的时间找到正确的节点。

九月二十是秋天,而五月十四是夏天。按照九月二十的时间破阵,需从白虎七宿入手。但若是按照五月十四的时间点破阵,则需从朱雀七宿入手。

五月十四乃孟仲之交,破阵需从朱雀翼宿入手。对照着天上星象,风绍很快便找到了翼宿的方位,随即便开始按照二十八星宿大阵的破阵方式寻找节点。

可是找了一会儿之后,风绍却逐渐发现不对劲了。原本应该是鬼宿的位置,竟然找不到阵法节点。反倒是在另一边相距不远的地方出现了另一个阵法节点。风绍掐指一算,愕然发现竟然是白虎昴宿。

这怎么方位都不对了?

风绍只得先停下脚步,皱眉思索起来。

既然先前能找到朱雀翼宿,那么按照五月十四的时间来破阵的思路应该是对的。可是突然之间冒出来的白虎昴宿,却让这阵法平添了一些变数。按照罗盘所指,他所在的位置确确实实是南方,但出现西方的星宿,这简直就是在拿天象开玩笑。

当初给乾坤宫布阵的人,该不会是把罗盘用错了吧?

这个想法只是在脑海中一闪而过,便被风绍抛之脑后。若乾坤宫的阵法都能出错,那天底下就没有对的阵法了。错的不可能是阵法,只能是自己。

在思索了半晌后,风绍才猛地发觉,自己竟是走入了一个误区。原本今天的时间就是九月二十,该从白虎七宿破阵。可是天上的形象却是五月十四,那么便当从朱雀七宿入手。如今朱雀七宿和白虎七宿交错出现,或许也就意味着需要以两个时间为标准交替寻找节点。

这么一想的话,道理就通了。

可是另一件事就说不通了。

就算是正反二十八星宿大阵,也没有这么布置的啊!也就是在乾坤宫,换了别的地方,要是有人敢用这种方式布阵,那可是会被嘲笑至死的!

贸然修改天象进行布阵,不仅达不到布阵的效果,反而容易自冲阵脚。不用别人破阵,自己就乱了。

在排除了阵法布错的可能性后,风绍想到的唯一可能,便是这并非是简单的正反二十八星宿大阵,甚至有可能根本就不是这个阵法。

以二十八星宿大阵为基础所作的变种护宗大阵,若不是正反二十八星宿大阵,那么只有可能是另一种阵法了。

想到这个可能,风绍顿时冷汗涔涔。

该不会是六合二十八宿星大阵吧?

传统的二十八星宿大阵,一共有三十一个节点。除去四灵所占的二十八星宿外,还有中央三垣,也就是太微、紫微、天市。一般而言,二十八星宿大阵都是以三垣为枢纽,正反二十八星宿大阵也不例外。可若是在二十八星宿大阵的基础上,再结合六合阵,那可就是另一回事了!

六合阵有六个节点,分别是青龙、白虎、朱雀、玄武、腾蛇,勾陈。这二十八星宿大阵与六合阵其中四个节点相结合,奇正相合,变化无穷,破阵的难度陡然间又上升了一个台阶。

所以风绍现在面临的是,要同时破解两个阵法,也就是二十八星宿大阵和六合阵。

破解六合阵的关键在于找到腾蛇和勾陈,而这两个关键节点都在中央,至于二十八星宿大阵的关键节点则是中央三垣。两者相结合的话,腾蛇和勾陈与中央三垣结合的可能性就很大了。

那么问题来了:腾蛇和勾陈,又分别对应的是太微、紫微和天市的哪一个或者哪几个呢?

饶是风绍在阵法一道颇有造诣,面对面前的难关也是极为头疼。更要命的是,他再又算了一遍阵法之后,竟然发现天上的星宿发生了变化!

从五月十四变成了五月二十五!

虽然只是很细微的变化,但对于风绍这种在阵法上研究颇深的人而言,这变化简直肉眼可辨。而根据新变化的星宿重新寻找方位后,风绍无奈地发现,地面上的阵法节点竟也跟着发生了变化。

这下可麻烦了。

风绍心中暗暗计算,发现大约是每过四到五分钟,星象的时间便变化一天。再次深入计算之后,风绍终于有了新的发现。

天上的星象,竟是把一年的变化浓缩到一天当中了。将一天分为三百六十份,一份可不就是四分钟嘛!

而且风绍还有了另一个猜想。

按照当前的星象变化,迟早会与现实的星象重合。到了那个时候,风绍也就用不着想着如何同时从朱雀七宿和白虎七宿中找破阵思路了,只要按部就班地从白虎七宿入手即可。

可是要想做到这一点,却存在一个很要命的难点。

破阵的时间,只有短短的四分钟。若是四分钟之内找不到出路,那么要想等到下一个破阵的机会,就要等一天之后了。

风绍不禁叹了口气。

这是哪个鬼才想出来的阵法?简直不给人破阵的机会嘛!虽说所有的布阵者都在挖空心思不给别人破阵的机会,可这也太变态了吧!

无奈之下,风绍只得原地坐下,开始等待星象的变化。

此时距离正确的星象还需要等待将近四个时辰,也就是八个小时。这么长的时间,风绍自是不能干坐着。他开始默默推算起阵法,力图到了时间后用最快的时间通过阵法。这种推算犹如下棋,需要走一步算十步,不仅繁琐,而且对破阵者的能力要求极高。

风绍自认在破阵上的造诣也算不俗,但是碰上这样的阵法也是算得颇为头疼。不过好在,现世的数学要远比古代的数学精炼得多,算起来也比古人轻松不少。在现代数学的加持之下,风绍逐步算清楚了每一步该走哪个方位,最终确定了正确的路线。

四个时辰就这样在悄然间流逝。

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."
