Chapter 305
Cheng Hui noticed that his eyes were focused on his feet.
He lowered his head...
"Squeak!" The monkey demon looked at them both expectantly.
Cheng Hui noticed that his eyes were focused on his feet.
He looked down and saw a line under his feet, and when he stepped through the gate just now, he just missed the line.
The monkey demon showed a disappointed expression.
Cheng Hui: ???
I suspect you're trying to trick me.
Lin Qingyang chuckled and motioned him to look up.
Cheng Hui raised his head and was shocked to find that there was a bucket of water hanging above his head. There was a line extending from the bottom of the bucket, which was connected to the line under his feet.
Cheng Hui: ...
He looked at the monkey demon with a frown on his face. The monkey demon realized that he was exposed and quickly put his hands behind his back, pretending nothing had happened.
The corners of Cheng Hui's mouth twitched. This monkey is really going to become a spirit... No, he has already become a spirit!
The monkey demon was a little unhappy that he failed to trick Cheng Hui.
Fortunately, he quickly cheered up and took Cheng Hui to an "operating table".
The operating table was covered with a large number of dense lines, and Cheng Hui felt dizzy after just one look.
Soon, he realized that the dizziness was not a psychological effect, but real dizziness. Those lines entangled together like a ball of thread were actually array patterns.
Fighting back the dizziness, he took a closer look and discovered that a large number of array patterns on the table extended out and connected with the ground. If he looked closely, he could see that the ground was also covered with black array patterns.
"Is this where you control those magic circles?"
“Squeak!”
Cheng Hui then became puzzled: "Since the main control console is here, why did I knock you off the Dragon Breaking Stone?"
The monkey demon's gaze drifted...
Who made me a monkey who likes to watch the fun? It’s never as exciting to watch real people as to watch through a water curtain, don’t you think?
Cheng Hui: ...
Forget it, don't worry about these details.
Through the console on the table, Cheng Hui could see that the team leader and the others were still circling in the corridor.
It is from this angle that you will find that this passage is less than 100 meters long, and some curved passages are cleverly designed by utilizing corners and human vision.
It is these curved passages that give everyone the illusion that they are always moving forward, when in fact they are just circling in a small area.
“Squeak!”
The monkey demon operated on the operating table for a while, and saw that the jade boxes on the wooden shelves on both sides seemed to be attracted by something, and they were abandoned one after another and fell in front of Cheng Hui.
"For me?" Cheng Hui looked at the monkey demon in surprise.
"Squeak!" The monkey demon nodded arrogantly.
"Why?" Cheng Hui was puzzled. These things should have been left by the predecessors who designed the formation. This monkey demon should have been a guard left by them, so why would he give them to him?
"Gugujiji!" The monkey demon operated on the operating table again, then pulled Cheng Hui over to watch.
Cheng Hui saw a translucent shadow suddenly appear above the operating table.
"Remnant soul?" Cheng Hui immediately became alert.
The remnant soul was an old man with a kind expression. He seemed a little surprised to see Cheng Hui and turned to look at the monkey demon.
The monkey demon made another series of chirping sounds, as if communicating with the old man's residual soul.
The old man paused for a moment, then suddenly laughed: "Boy, are you the disciple that my monkey found for me?"
Cheng Hui: ...
No, what's wrong with you senior masters? You actually let a monkey find you an apprentice?
The monkey demon shouted at the remnant soul twice again.
The remnant soul doted on the monkey demon and said with a smile, "Okay, okay, it wasn't you who was looking for him. He was just lucky enough to break your magic circle."
The monkey demon was satisfied. He turned around and bared his teeth at Cheng Hui, then jumped aside, leaving the space for communication to the two of them.
"Senior..." Cheng Hui felt that he should say something.
The remnant soul waved his hand: "Alright, kid, my cultivation level was not high when I was alive, and it was a coincidence that I was able to leave behind a trace of remnant soul. If you continue to be polite to me, I will not be able to finish my words, and I will die..."
Such straightforward truth left Cheng Hui speechless.
But...what else can I do? He's almost dead, so I'll just listen to what he has to say.
However, Cheng Hui did not expect that this remnant soul would not play by the rules. He had just agreed to listen to what the other party had to say, but the other party was unreasonable and directly stuffed all his life accumulation into his brain.
It's really stuffed into my brain.
The remnant soul exploded and turned into star-like points of light, rushing directly into Cheng Hui's sea of consciousness at lightning speed.
Cheng Hui:!!!
Oh shit!
You are such a bad old man!
He actually plotted against me!
Cheng Hui was startled and quickly opened his sea of consciousness, appearing at the door of the villa in his sea of consciousness.
Originally, he thought that the other party would forcibly pry open the door to his sea of consciousness like the zombie did last time it took over his body.
But unexpectedly, the other party seemed to have really disappeared, leaving only pure memories, like a cloud of smoke, staying at the gate of the villa.
"Ah!" Xiao Tong hid half of his body at the door and looked out secretly. When he saw the cloud of smoke with starlight, his eyes widened with curiosity.
Facing the cloud of smoke, Cheng Hui was suddenly at a loss. This was his sea of consciousness, and he could clearly feel that this cloud of smoke was a large amount of memories.
Fragile, harmless, and ready to dissipate at any moment.
In other words, the willful senior simply threw the choice to him.
If you are willing to accept it, then absorb this memory.
Don't want to? Then let the memory fade away.
This group of memories is pure spirit. If it dissipates in his sea of consciousness, it can become nutrients to nourish his sea of consciousness.
Cheng Hui smiled bitterly. He had never thought that there would be such a thing as forced benefits.
He had already witnessed the senior's attainments in formation. The formation that could lead people into an illusion silently was truly amazing. If such a skill was lost, Cheng Hui would not forgive himself.
"This is simply forced buying and selling..." Cheng Hui muttered, but his body walked towards the mass of memories very honestly.
The smoke surrounded Cheng Hui and was inhaled into his body with every breath.
A large amount of memories flooded into his mind. Cheng Hui endured the discomfort of the headache and distracted himself to tell Lin Qingyang that he would be in seclusion for a while, so that when he woke up, he would not find that the monkey demon had been torn into pieces by Lin Qingyang who was concerned about his safety..._(:з」∠)_
Fortunately, he came out in time. Lin Qingyang's eyes were already not right when he looked at the monkey demon. He was afraid that he would have attacked him if he had been a little later.
Even with Cheng Hui's instructions, when Cheng Hui closed his eyes to absorb those memories, Lin Qingyang still looked at the monkey demon with an unfriendly look, which scared the monkey demon so much that it hid behind the operating table cursing, trying to pretend not to see it.
After a long while, Cheng Hui finally woke up from his drowsiness. Holding his still aching forehead, he complained, "Senior, can't you simplify your memory? I really don't want to know what you were thinking when you were a dog..."
Lin Qingyang: ...
Just as that senior said, his cultivation was really not high. Firstly, his aptitude was very average; secondly, he put too much energy into the formation. Otherwise, he would not have been able to invent such a formation with almost no spiritual power fluctuation.
Unfortunately, studying this magic circle wasted a lot of his time, so when he finally figured it out, he was shocked to find that he was already very old and his life was coming to an end.
Due to his poor health, he was unable to go out, and as a casual cultivator, he could not recruit disciples like the big sects.
In order to prevent the formation he had worked so hard to research from being lost, he designed this treasure trove for the purpose of selecting suitable disciples.
Because his life was coming to an end, he had no choice but to capture a group of monkeys, forcibly enlighten them, teach them how to practice, and let them guard the place on his behalf.
At that time, there were dozens of monkeys in the group, but only a dozen or so survived the stage of enlightenment.
Among these dozen monkeys, only a few had talent for magic arrays. He taught them for a while, selected the one with the best talent, and sent the rest away.
"Squeak!" When the monkey demon saw Cheng Hui coming out, hesitantly came to his side, tugged at his pants, tilted his head and made a cute expression.
Cheng Hui... Cheng Hui had no resistance to the furry creatures. His right hand seemed to have a will of its own and gently touched the monkey demon's head.
Ah... the fur is so soft, Cheng Hui exclaimed in his heart.
Suddenly, he shuddered and reflexively withdrew his hand. He coughed twice and said to Lin Qingyang seriously, "The senior has handed over all his inheritance to me, including this monkey demon. Let's take him away later."
Lin Qingyang glanced at the monkey demon with a half-smile, and the monkey demon shuddered and gave him a well-behaved smile.
Monkey demon: QAQ I can’t afford to offend you…
After collecting the things here, Cheng Hui thought about whether to leave some for the people in Bai Yujing, but the single monkey demon refused.
According to him, these things are prepared for those who can see through illusions. As for others... they are not qualified!
Cheng Hui was in a dilemma. He didn't want to let Bai Yujing's people make a wasted trip.
Fortunately, the monkey demon said that the first group of people who came here also had their own gains and would not return empty-handed. At most... their gains were not as great as Cheng Hui's.
Moreover, those things also contain the inheritance of that predecessor, but they are recorded on jade slips and lack the ideas and understanding in memory. They are sufficient for basic training.
Cheng Hui felt relieved knowing that the people from Baiyujing would not return empty-handed.
The healing item was placed in the storage ring, which was filled with rare treasures collected by the intelligent monkeys.
They were grateful for the senior's actions, and since they had nothing of their own, they searched in the Ten Thousand Mountains, using these natural treasures to repay the other party's kindness.
Cheng Hui and his group followed the monkey demon and soon found their leader.
They have "successfully" found Luo Beidou, and Cheng Hui played a big role in it.
Watching a group of people standing there, battling wits and courage with the air, Cheng Hui felt amused but also felt that this formation was truly terrifying. Combining his knowledge of formations, he was confident that he could create a large-scale illusion formation that would cause cultivators below the Nascent Soul stage to die unconsciously.
As for those above the Nascent Soul stage, there is also a high probability that they will be affected. If someone has an obsession, the illusion array can weave memories based on it, making people completely addicted to the illusion array.
"Let's go!" Cheng Hui took Lin Qingyang and quietly integrated into the team.
Since he didn't know what they had seen in the illusion before, he tried to speak as little as possible to avoid revealing the truth.
Fortunately, after successfully rescuing Luo Beidou, everyone was in a relaxed mood. In addition, they had gained a lot from Luo Beidou. Except for the team leader who vaguely felt something was wrong, no one else had any doubts.
Without evidence, the team leader's suspicion was nothing more than suspicion. Besides, everyone had been rescued, so he didn't want to make things more complicated. The group quickly left Guiwu Peak and returned to Beiliang City on a flying boat.
