Chapter 38 Discovering the Remnants of the Formation



'Senior Brother, is this an array?'

The object that Wen Jianxi blasted out with a small black ball instantly caught Lu Li's attention, causing him to change direction and head straight towards her.

When he arrived at the center of the explosion with the sweet potato, the strange patterns that were exposed on it became even more obvious.

With just one glance, Lu Li was certain that this was a formation, and it should be an ancient formation, as even the aura emanating from it carried a very mysterious feeling.

Compared to Lu Li's ability to see through it at a glance, Shushu clearly hasn't mastered that skill yet.

She was held in Lu Li's arms and looked up and down for a while before she asked him, somewhat uncertainly, whether her guess was right or wrong.

There's so much information about formations in her inherited memories; she needs to look through it carefully.

It seems that after returning this time, she will have to put digesting the inherited memories on her agenda. Otherwise, every time she encounters a problem, she will have to search for them bit by bit, which will take a lot of time.

If she can fully digest it, she won't even need to search through her memories; she can match it directly, saving both time and effort. Wouldn't that be wonderful?

Moreover, perhaps because he had returned to his body and was a divine beast, Shushu felt that his memory was much better than in his previous life. Although he couldn't remember everything he saw, it wasn't much worse.

However, with the all-knowing senior brother around, Shushu decided to take a break and ask him directly.

"Yes, junior sister, please don't act rashly."

Lu Li didn't notice Shushu's little scheme. After he had clearly seen the place, his face also became serious. Just then, Shushu asked, so he took the opportunity to bring it up.

Then he took out two communication jade talismans and quickly sent a message to the other party. The owners of the two jade talismans were their master Liu Yu and fifth uncle Chongming.

"Okay, don't worry, Senior Brother, I promise I'll behave and not move around."

The potato also saw Lu Li's actions and realized the seriousness of the matter. It stopped looking outside and stayed obediently in Lu Li's hand, looking like a good baby.

Seeing that she was well-behaved, Lu Li first gently patted her head, then put one hand on her and used the other to set up an array around her.

"Senior Brother, can I go inside the clothes?"

Seeing that he had to support himself with one hand and set up the formation with the other, which was inconvenient, the millet turned into a tiny clever mouse and crawled into the front of his clothes, so that he could free up his hands.

But fearing that her sudden actions might disrupt his formation, she hesitated for a moment before deciding to talk to him about it.

"Okay, I forgot you could do that."

Even while setting up the formation, Lu Li still kept a sliver of attention on Shushu.

After all, he found the formation to be profound and mysterious, and he was afraid that if he wasn't careful, Shushu might accidentally fall in or be sucked in, and he couldn't guarantee that he could save her then.

If that's the case, why not protect the millet and potatoes from the beginning, so as not to regret it after something happens? That would be as useless as hindsight.

Therefore, Lu Li heard it the moment the glutinous rice ball opened its mouth.

He also recalled the time when he had a sweet potato tucked into his chest, and with a smile, he put the sweet potato into his lapel, thoughtfully leaving his little head sticking out so she could see what was happening outside.

After thinking it over, he felt a little uneasy, so he added an extra layer of protection.

"Hehe~ This is to protect you."

After adding the protective shield, Lu Li belatedly realized that he hadn't told Shushu about it, and even gave her an explanation to avoid the little one thinking that he was restricting her.

"Thank you, Senior Brother. I understand. You go ahead with your work! Don't worry about me, I won't move around."

Shushu didn't think much of it. After meeting Lu Li's eyes, he grinned and replied with a silly smile.

"good."

Lu Li was amused by her silly appearance, affectionately ruffled her hair, and then continued with what he hadn't finished.

Without the weight of the sweet potatoes in his hands, and no longer needing to constantly monitor his palms, Lu Li could set up his formation much faster.

Then the two senior and junior disciples did this: Lu Li set up the formation, and Shu Shu watched Lu Li set up the formation.

...

"Is this a grand formation?"

Just as Lu Li finished setting up the formation and hadn't even had time to activate the concealment, several figures appeared beside him, and it was Liu Yu who spoke.

Upon arriving, he immediately noticed the exposed formation and asked Lu Li in surprise.

When did such a powerful formation appear outside Wanyue City? How come he never knew about it?

"This one is a remnant formation."

Before Lu Li could answer, another person among the figures spoke up; this person was Chongming.

Compared to Liu Yu, who only recognized it as a large formation, he, as a formation master, immediately determined that it was a fragment of a high-level formation that had been around for many years.

"A remnant of the army?"

This surprised not only Liu Yu, but also the others who came with him. The formation clearly looked very complete, and there was even spiritual energy flowing on it, so how could it be a broken formation?

"It's a fragment of a formation. This should be an ancient formation that has been lost. If it weren't a fragment, we probably wouldn't have discovered it. By the way, Lu Li, how did you discover this formation?"

Chongming showed no displeasure at their questions. He gave a brief explanation and then looked at Lu Li to ask.

The Liuyue Sect is nearby. They have passed through Xianglai Forest countless times without discovering that there is a hidden formation here. How did this kid find it?

"I didn't discover it; it was blown up..."

Faced with Chongming's question, Lu Li did not hide anything and immediately told everyone what had happened.

"I see. It seems that the black sphere must have shattered the hidden array outside, thus exposing the real array."

After hearing Lu Li's explanation, Chongming quickly understood, so it was no wonder that they hadn't discovered it.

"Fifth Uncle, do you mean there's another concealment array here? I didn't see it."

Then, Shushu poked her head out and looked at Chongming with a puzzled expression. She understood what he meant, but where was the concealment array? Why couldn't she see it?

"Look here, this is the remnant after the concealment array was blown up. The spiritual energy of this concealment array has been almost exhausted. The little black ball just happened to fall into the center of the array and exploded directly. In fact, in a few decades, even without the little black ball, this concealment array will automatically dissipate, revealing the large array hidden underneath."

When Chongming met Shushu's inquisitive gaze, a smile flashed in his eyes, and he began to explain to her, pointing things out as he did so.

Following the direction he pointed, Shushu saw the array patterns that resembled the advanced concealment array from the silk and inherited memories.

The array patterns were attached to that broken array without any abruptness. If Uncle-Master Chongming hadn't specifically pointed it out, Shushu probably wouldn't have been able to tell for a while.
