Chapter 737 Concealment Formation
Zhong Ran nodded slightly: "Don't worry too much. We can ask around when we have the chance to go to the sea."
She possesses the Water Source Pearl, and although she hasn't fully mastered it yet, it shouldn't be difficult for her to gather information once she's in the sea.
Yu Yingying nodded; this was the only way for now.
Some ghosts still come out at night, but everyone is very experienced and has their own ways of protecting themselves.
Zhong Ran and Mu Jinning didn't need to be on guard at all; those dark things didn't dare to approach them.
They possess the aura of divine fire, making them the nemesis of those evil spirits. Who would dare to approach them?
It's a good thing Zhong Yan wasn't here; otherwise, these remnant souls would have been a great tonic for him.
It took us more than a day to reach the mysterious place they had mentioned.
It was a vast expanse of wasteland, with no mountains or boulders to obstruct the view, so theoretically you could see right to the end.
But ironically, they couldn't see the other side from where they were standing.
Everyone used their own methods, and some even circled the area.
Elder Fang and other experts in formations said, "There is a powerful concealment formation inside, which has hidden this area. We don't know what's inside."
"Logically speaking, this is the battlefield of that year. Anything that has been hidden away so carefully must be of good quality."
"They might even be weapons or elixirs that have been preserved in extremely good condition."
"Xiao Ran, Xiao Jin, how is it? Can you figure out if we can break this formation?"
The remaining formations here are at least level eight or nine.
The better ones are still divine arrays, and even their best are only sixth-level array masters. People like Elder Fang have only recently advanced to the sixth level.
When they met Zhong Ran, they were still at the fifth rank. In the past two years, under Zhong Ran's stimulation and guidance, and by studying many ancient formations, they have made great progress.
But no matter how much they improve, they are still not as good as geniuses like Zhong Ran.
He's only at the sixth rank now, and can only set up some simple sixth-rank formations and break some sixth-rank formations. He hasn't yet reached the point where he can master all sixth-rank formations.
Zhong Ran looked at Mu Jinning, who was also a sixth-level array master, but he had advanced earlier than Elder Fang and the others.
Moreover, he had spent the most time with Zhong Ran and received guidance from that immortal array master, so his knowledge of array formations had improved significantly.
He himself didn't know exactly how far things had progressed.
"I'll give it a try, it shouldn't be too difficult."
He had figured out some of the tricks, but he wasn't sure; he needed to explore them himself to find out.
Zhong Ran nodded: "Okay, I'll go with you."
Without activating her Eye of Illusion, she is actually about the same level as Mu Jinning.
In fact, her foundation was not as good as Mu Jinning's before, and she relied entirely on the Eye of Illusion to cheat.
However, with the guidance of the Immortal Array Master, she has grown a lot, but she is still about the same level as Mu Jinning.
In fact, Mu Jinning's talent in array formations was actually better than hers; she really cheated entirely with the Eye of Illusion.
The rest of the people should stay outside to guard against them. Since they are coming this way in a large group, there must be other powerful people following them in secret. Who knows if the evil and demonic paths, or even some righteous people, will try to trip them up in the dark?
When facing the evil and the wicked, the righteous and the wicked are considered opposing forces.
But even outside of times of great war, there are many people with dark hearts within the righteous path.
Previously, Zhong Ran and his three companions were the center of attention in the city, surrounded by many powerful figures and protected by several major forces. Even if someone had thoughts in their mind, they dared not show them.
In these places, there are no such concerns.
Mu Jinning took Zhong Ran's hand and walked step by step into the formation.
He walked slowly, and occasionally discussed things with Zhong Ran.
Zhong Ran also tried her best not to activate the Eye of Illusion. She could now control the Eye of Illusion smoothly, unlike before when it was random.
"Go this way, it seems there's more life here."
Yes, he couldn't see through it. Mu Jinning relied entirely on his sense of vitality to determine where the gate of life was.
Every formation has a gate of life and a gate of death. The gate of life naturally has the aura of life, and as long as you have a strong enough sense, you can still find it.
However, such a high-level formation is also very good at concealing one's aura; otherwise, anyone could sense it, so what would be the point of the formation?
Zhong Ran laughed and said, "Ah Jin, I feel like you'll be able to use a cheat code in the future. With your sense of life force, breaking the formation won't be a problem."
Setting up a formation is not easy; it requires familiarity with formations before one can execute it.
However, breaking the formation is relatively simpler. With the Tree of Life he now possesses, he can cheat and break advanced formations.
Mu Jinning led her away, chuckling softly, "I'll try my best."
After walking for a while, turning left and right, they gradually smelled a medicinal fragrance.
The two exchanged a glance, both of them showing shock.
"Could it be that there's a miraculous medicine inside?"
Mu Jinning smiled and said, "That's quite possible. This place was originally a mountain range. Perhaps during the battle, a powerful expert discovered the spiritual herbs below."
Zhong Ran smiled and replied, "Moreover, it might be an extremely rare spiritual herb; otherwise, it wouldn't be worthy of those powerful figures personally setting up this grand formation."
Although later array masters can create arrays with a wave of their hand, they no longer need to spend a lot of time observing, studying, and laying out the arrays like they did.
True immortals can conjure formations with a wave of their hands.
It might not have been an ordinary thing to begin with, and after so much time, the contents inside might have become a miracle drug by now.
"Well, isn't that perfect? Get some more."
The two quickly went inside and were somewhat stunned when they saw the only rare orchid growing there.
Inside was a unique orchid, with large leaves, a tall growth habit, and a string of flowers.
Some of the flowers resembled butterflies, while others looked like human faces, and they were enveloped in an aura of darkness.
"Xiao Ding, what kind of medicine is this?"
An orchid is an orchid, how could it have a medicinal fragrance?
The dark element above is extremely dense, yet the fragrance of the medicinal herbs emanating from it is so real.
But I must say, this orchid is still quite beautiful, even though it looks a bit eerie.
"This is a Ghost Orchid, not a medicinal herb, but a demonic plant. The medicinal fragrance is emitted by it to attract nutrients for its growth."
After observing the surroundings, Zhong Ran also noticed that the soil around the ghost orchid was loose.
"Could it be that some kind of elixir would deliberately come here to be devoured by it?"
"It's not a spiritual medicine, but some remnant souls that crawled in and were devoured by it. Otherwise, it wouldn't have grown so big and so well."
Some remnant souls still retain some residual consciousness. They don't remember much, but they know, through some instinct, that they need to devour energy to grow.
The aroma of the elixir does indeed attract some remnant souls.
"Who could have deliberately set up a concealment array to protect it here?"
