Chapter 223
After Cheng Hui and Lin Qingyang went over, they saw Feng Jiuzhou...
Early the next morning, not long after the two of them washed up, a boy came and invited them to the main hall to talk.
After Cheng Hui and Lin Qingyang went over, they saw Feng Jiuzhou looking worried and thoughtful.
Oh no!
This expression doesn't look like the problem has been solved.
"Master Feng."
"Please take a seat, both of you." Sect Leader Feng was quite approachable.
Cheng Hui and Lin Qingyang sat down. The tea served by the boy was full of spiritual energy and it was obvious that it was not cheap.
"Thank you both for saving my daughter's life."
"Master Feng, you are too polite. We just happened to meet here." Cheng Hui replied politely.
Sect Leader Feng smiled faintly. Whether it was a coincidence or not was another matter, but it was true that the other party saved his daughter, so he had to express his gratitude.
When he discussed with Li Yuqing yesterday, he had considered how to express his gratitude appropriately. Giving gifts was the lowest but most direct way. The identities of these two people were unknown (they had been investigated, but there was no definite result). Sect Leader Feng was grateful for their help in saving his daughter, but as the leader of the Bagua Sect, he had to consider the possibility that the other party would take advantage of this opportunity to cause trouble.
As a father he could be willful, but as a head of a sect he had too many things to consider.
Of course, if Cheng Hui and Lin Qingyang revealed their identities as disciples of the Corpse Puppet Sect, then it would be much easier for Sect Leader Feng to deal with them. Unfortunately, the next plans of these two people may conflict with the Bagua Sect, so neither of them has any intention of revealing themselves.
Cheng Hui also knew that if their identities were not checked, if the people from Bagua Sect were a bit more domineering, they might think that their act of saving people was just to gain their trust and enter Bagua Sect.
Of course he knows that he doesn't have such thoughts, but you can't help but some suspicious people will think so.
Cheng Hui could also understand Master Feng's distress. He had no purpose in saving people, he was simply doing good deeds every day, and he didn't want to stay in Bagua Sect for too long.
To put it bluntly, if two people with suspicious identities stay here and something happens to the Bagua Sect, they will have no way to explain themselves.
Cheng Hui and Lin Qingyang have actually restored their original appearance, but they are still using the identities of the young master and the guard. Anyway, the Bagua Sect is so far away from the Corpse Puppet Sect, and he and Lin Qingyang have never gone out as Wuyouzi's closed disciples, so the chance of being exposed is not high.
As for whether there will be conflicts with the disciples of Bagua Sect when they arrive at the Forbidden Demon Battlefield... Well, they can just disguise themselves again. Anyway, as long as they can't be recognized as the two of them, that's fine!
Cheng Hui could see the inner conflict of Sect Leader Feng, so he offered his suggestions very understandingly.
"Master Feng, I have also done some research on formations. I wonder if your sect's knowledge of formations is open to outsiders. It would be even better if we could have more fellow practitioners to study together."
Sect Leader Feng looked at Cheng Hui in surprise, then thought, since this man was able to rescue Xiaoxue from the water vein node, he was obviously going to study the Qiankun Formation. It should not be a lie for him to say that he was very interested in the formation.
When it comes to formations, Sect Leader Feng is quite confident.
In the entire world of cultivation, when it comes to martial arts, the Bagua Sect is not that good, but when it comes to formations, no one can compare to them.
The combat effectiveness of the monks of their Bagua Sect is not easy to calculate. If it is a surprise battle, most of the monks are relatively weak, but once they encounter a positional battle, as long as they are given some time to prepare, they can overwhelm the enemy with endless magic arrays.
——The prerequisite is to have enough materials.
As the saying goes, a good cook cannot cook without rice. As long as the formation master is given enough materials, it is not impossible to kill people of higher levels!
"If that's the case..." Sect Leader Feng twirled his beard and nodded, "Come with me. I'll take you to the Sutra Discussion Hall. You'll probably like it there."
Cheng Hui followed Sect Master Feng with great interest to another hilltop. He looked around as he walked, feeling in his heart that the cultivators of the Bagua Sect were indeed obsessed with formations, and cultivators fighting in formations could be seen everywhere.
Setting up formations, breaking formations, and studying formations, this seems to be the daily routine of the Bagua Sect.
Cheng Hui was dazzled by what he saw. There were many formations that he couldn't recognize at first glance. He had to think about them for a while before he could figure out what formations they were based on.
Cheng Hui couldn't help but secretly click his tongue. It was because of the bad impression that Old Xu left on him that he looked down on Bagua Sect. In fact, it was a rather "homely" sect. There were indeed some people in it who lived up to their reputation, but there were more monks who were more inclined to research.
Cheng Hui has a natural awe for scientific research leaders. Walking in the Bagua Gate is like walking in a scientific research institute, so he unconsciously becomes cautious, fearing that he might accidentally touch someone's formation and delay their research.
Sect Leader Feng couldn't help but find it funny when he saw how cautious he was, but at the same time, he had a better impression of him.
Because of their poor combat effectiveness, the Bagua Sect was often mocked by disciples of some sects with extremely strong combat effectiveness. For the demonic cultivators, their Bagua Sect was also a soft persimmon among the righteous sects and was often bullied.
Take the incident from two days ago for example. After an investigation, the matter of that evil cultivator has been clarified.
When the other party was young, someone in his family had an affair with a demon cultivator and secretly trafficked humans. After this was exposed, disciples of the righteous path came to investigate. At least 70% of the people in their family were involved, and naturally they did not want the matter to be exposed, so they attacked the disciples who came to investigate.
Little did they know that the disciple who came to investigate was a tough guy. Not only did he have strong personal strength, but he also had a strong background. Not only did he escape the trap set by their family, but he also found a big backer behind him.
Naturally, their family could not withstand this kind of dimensionality reduction attack, and the backer was also a hot-tempered man. In this world, there was no such thing as only pursuing the main culprit. It was normal for the whole family to be punished when one person committed a crime. So when the evil cultivator returned home, it was understandable that he saw broken walls and ruins all over the ground.
The entire family was wiped out overnight, which would be a huge blow to anyone. So, the young man who could barely be considered innocent fell into the arms of the evil cultivator.
He didn't dare and couldn't cause trouble for the big backer, so in order to prevent his family members from escaping, he hated the Bagua Sect disciples who were asked by the big backer to set up the magic circle, and vowed revenge.
As I said before, magic skills have great hidden dangers, and people often die while practicing them.
This demon cultivator was also almost a routine, but compared to those demon cultivators who fended for themselves, he sacrificed his own sanity in practicing. As luck would have it, by chance, he got a ray of Nine Netherworld Spinning Light, which led to a series of events that followed, scaring the people of Bagua Sect into breaking out in cold sweats.
It was obvious that the real murderer was the big backer, but this evil cultivator specifically chose the Bagua Sect to take revenge. When Sect Leader Feng found out, he was naturally very annoyed.
The monks of Bagua Sect lack the strength for frontal combat, and the old monks seen everywhere on the roadside are not at a high level of cultivation, and many of them are only at the foundation-building stage. However, it is precisely because of the existence of these old monks who are willing to delve into research that the entire Bagua Sect can constantly innovate and create more and stronger formations.
Cheng Hui did not look down on these old monks because of their low cultivation level. Instead, he showed them great respect. This was the reason why Sect Leader Feng was increasingly fond of him.
"arrive."
There is a lake halfway up the mountain. On the shore of the lake is a series of small pavilions connected by bridges. From a distance, these bridges and pavilions vaguely form the shape of a Bagua formation.
At first, Cheng Hui thought these bridges and pavilions were a bit strange, but when he got closer, he discovered their exquisiteness.
He couldn't help but walk past Sect Leader Feng. As the lines of the bridge and pavilion became clearer in his eyes, a wonderful light appeared in his eyes. In his eyes, the bridges and pavilions disappeared, leaving only smooth lines and flashing nodes, forming a huge formation in the air.
"What a great reflection array! Who set it up? It's amazing!" Cheng Hui couldn't help but applaud.
Sect Leader Feng looked at Cheng Hui in surprise. Considering Cheng Hui's age, he originally thought that Cheng Hui was just a magic circle enthusiast. He even wanted to bring him here, hoping that maybe an elder would like him and teach him a few tricks.
Don't underestimate these two moves. Anyone who can stay near this reflection formation is extremely confident in their formation skills. Their level has reached the point of returning to nature. Being taught a few moves by them is a rare opportunity that many people can only hope for.
Sect Leader Feng also had good intentions, but he didn't expect that Cheng Hui's attainments in formations were also quite high. He could tell that this was a reflection formation at first sight.
As the leader of the Bagua Sect, Sect Leader Feng's attainments in formations are naturally not low, but his attainments can only be said to be compared with those ordinary formation masters. If he is really compared with those old monsters who have been staying nearby, it would be a laughing stock.
"Haha, boy Feng, the people you brought are pretty good. They could actually see through the reflection array at a glance. You couldn't figure it out after looking at it for a long time at first." A hearty laugh was heard.
Sect Leader Feng immediately gave a bitter smile and said, "If you want to praise someone, just praise them. Why do you have to put me down?"
So what if my attainments in formations aren't very high? I'm only delaying this for you. Without me supporting you from outside, you still expect to study here undisturbed? What are you thinking!
Sect Leader Feng complained secretly, but everyone who could stay here was considered his elder.
He can't do anything except complain..._(:з」∠)_
"Boy, since you can recognize that this is a reflection array, why not look for the entrance to this array? If you can find it within an hour, I will give you a array plate, how about it?" The hearty voice continued.
When Sect Leader Feng heard this, his eyebrows twitched violently.
He was madly complaining in his heart. Last time, his nephew had complained to him about how every single one of the elders in Bailu Lake was so stingy that they wouldn't even lend him a formation plate. Now you're actually using it as a bet? Believe it or not, his nephew will cry for you to see!
Before he could even finish his address, Lin Qingyang beside him chuckled, "Senior, if he finds it within an hour, I'll give you a formation disk. What if he finds it within half an hour? Or even within a stick of incense?"
"Oh! You're quite confident, kid! Fine! I'll be generous: If you can find it in half an hour, I'll give you a formation diagram. If you can find it in a stick of incense, I'll give you an ancient book that records formation diagrams from my collection. How about that?"
"Okay! It's a deal!" Lin Qingyang agreed without saying a word, fearing that the old man would return.
Cheng Hui watched his operation from the side and secretly gave him a thumbs up.
here you go!
Then he and Lin Qingyang strode forward. After a few turns, the view in front of them suddenly became clear. The seemingly distant lake suddenly appeared before their eyes.
Also appearing was a dull old face.
Elder Hu: ...
This is impossible!
