Explorer of Teyvat

A small underground space,

There are heavy human traces, and the stone slabs laid on the ground are a bit dark. It can be seen that these stone slabs have experienced a very long time.

In the stone slab casting room, there are a large number of mysterious runes inscribed on the deep walls.

A huge and irregular magic circle shimmered stubbornly on the wall.

In the magic circle, there seems to be something missing in a circular pit.

"This is part of the node of the magic circle. I don't know whether those four stupid thieves were lucky or bad, but they were able to dig here."

Hutao walked to the magic circle with the restored circular magic weapon.

The magic circle that was originally only slightly bright seemed to feel something, and the light became more intense.

There is also a little light flowing on the surface of the disc instrument in Hu Tao's hand.

Align the disc magic weapon with the vacancy in the center of the magic circle,

With a 'click', the disc magic weapon was firmly stuck into the vacancy in the center of the magic circle.

The originally dim magic circle suddenly lit up, and then calmed down again.

But it's definitely not as gloomy as before, but rather a restrained atmosphere.

"Okay, this will be fine."

Hutao clapped his hands, indicating that it was done.

Wang Daoyi looked at the condensed magic circle in front of him, his eyes full of interest.

When the disc magic weapon was not returned to its position just now, the runes on this magic circle were flashing, and it was considered a normal magic circle.

But after the disc magic weapon was returned to its position, not only did the aura of the magic circle converge, but the irregular runes were also hidden.

"Brother Daoyi, what are you looking at?" Hutao looked at Wang Daoyi curiously, and then followed his line of sight to the magic circle, "Are you looking at the magic circle? Stop looking. After the return of the suppressor, the magic circle will naturally It will be hidden, and only when the suppressor is taken out will the magic circle appear."

"Hall Master Hu knows this magic circle very well?" Wang Daoyi retracted his gaze from the magic circle and turned to Hu Tao.

The number one fireman in Teyvat, A, patted his chest and looked like he understood: "Of course, we at the Rebirth Hall have been looking after this place for so long, so naturally we have some understanding."

"Oh, can you tell me about it?" Wang Daoyi's eyes widened and he asked very curiously.

Hall Master Hu blushed, then scratched his head in embarrassment: "This, that..."

"Is it inconvenient?" Wang Daoyi asked.

The Rebirth Hall has been passed down for thousands of years. If it is some very important information, it may be inconvenient to tell others.

If it was inconvenient for Hu Tao to say it, Wang Daoyi could understand. At worst, it would be better to go back and ask Zhong Li directly.

"That's not true. Although the matter of the magic circle is top secret, Dao Yi, you are related to the immortals, so it's okay to tell you. It's just that I don't remember much, so I know the name of this magic circle. "

Hu Tao said a little embarrassed.

Wang Daoyi gave Hu Tao a confused look.

"Oh, since I inherited the Hall of Purity, the main thing I have learned is ritual knowledge. As for the stories passed down from the Hall of Purity, I only read them as miscellaneous books, so naturally I can't remember much."

Hu Tao inherited the position of the leader of the Rebirth Hall when he was young.

Although she is very talented, once she took over the Rebirth Hall, she stabilized the status of the Rebirth Hall, and she made no mistakes in various rebirth rituals.

But after all, she is just a little girl. She is familiar with various rituals of rebirth, practices the passed-down marksmanship of the Rebirth Hall, and controls the Staff of Gomo. These things have taken up a lot of Hu Tao's time.

She really didn't have time to read carefully the stories and some secret books passed down from the Hall of Purity.

Unless there was a special situation where she needed to look up information, she would just flip through it and treat it as leisure reading.

Under such circumstances, it would naturally be difficult for her to remember more detailed knowledge.

"I see, I misunderstood the hall master." Wang Daoyi cupped his hands in front of Hu Tao.

Hu Tao patted her chest grandly: "It's okay, it's okay. I remember what this magic circle is called [Deception]."

"[Deception]? What a great name." Wang Daoyi said with emotion.

Hall Master Hu didn't feel anything, and smiled broadly: "Haha, who can say otherwise? It's actually a concealment circle. The main purpose is to ensure that the narrow space between life and death is not discovered by outsiders."

Wang Daoyi smiled, and his spiritual thoughts spread out, sweeping across the entire Wuwanpo.

Then...he didn't find the gap between life and death.

During Qianyanjun's funeral, he had definitely seen the entrance to the narrow space between life and death.

But now I can't find the entrance.

"Interesting." Wang Daoyi murmured in a low voice.

"What's so interesting?" Hall Master Hu suddenly poked his head out from under Wang Daoyi's line of sight.

"Nothing. By the way, how did Hall Master Hu find the entrance to the narrow space between life and death under the [Deception] array?" Wang Daoyi asked curiously.

Even he could hardly detect where the entrance was, but Hu Tao could easily enter it. There must be something special about it.

Hu Tao had no intention of hiding it, she stretched out her hand and grasped it, and a crimson scepter appeared in her hand.

The unruly fire floated slightly, and the strong true intention of purifying demons filled the small space.

"Of course it depends on the stick of Goma. The masters of the Hall of Rebirth in the past generations can open the entrance to the narrow space between life and death as long as they hold the stick of Goma."

The red scepter was turned over in Hu Tao's hand, and the top of the scepter shone slightly like an orb surrounded by red flames.

Wang Daoyi noticed that when the Staff of Humo appeared, the magic circle on the wall simultaneously showed a glimmer of light, but it quickly disappeared.

"The Rod of Goma...is the key."

Wang Daoyi suddenly understood.

In fact, this was not the first time he saw this scepter inherited from the Rebirth Hall.

As a treasure passed down from generation to generation, the existence of the Huma Staff has never been a secret.

Many people know that there is such a scepter, or in other words, a spear in the hand of the Palace of Purity.

But few can take it away from the Hall of Purity.

Wang Daoyi once asked Zhongli, and Zhongli's answer was that no one else could take away the Staff of Humo.

At first Wang Daoyi thought it was because the main purpose of the Huma Staff was to perform death rituals, so others could not take it away.

But now it seems that serving as the key between life and death is the real purpose of the Goma Rod.

"Ah~" Hall Master Hu yawned, "I have been out for so long, I have to go back. Do you want Brother Dao to go with you?"

Hall Master Hu's peach blossom eyes flashed, and she just wanted to take Wang Daoyi's ride.

"Let's go back together. In addition, I want to go to the Rebirth Hall to look up information about this [Deception] array, is that okay?" Wang Daoyi asked.

Hu Tao waved his hand grandly: "It's a small matter. You can watch it as long as you want."

"Haha, the hall master is very generous."

Wang Daoyi said a 'compliment', and then looked at the passage he came from, "Since this place has been repaired, there is no need for the passage to exist."

With a thought, the rock element surged, completely sealing the small passage.

"Let's go, Hall Master Hu, let's go back."

"Okay, okay, go back quickly, I'm hungry."

…

Liyue·Feiyunpo·Pangshengtang.

The hall master and Wang Daoyi returned here together,

Originally, Wang Daoyi wanted to ask Zhongli to find out about the [Deception] array, but Zhongli was not in the Hall of Rebirth.

According to the answer given by the Insignificant Lord, Mr. Zhongli went out early in the morning and did not say where he went.

Wang Daoyi, who had not found anyone, had no choice but Hall Master Hu was still very powerful.

He took Wang Daoyi directly to the secret room of the Hall of Purity.

After bypassing dozens of hidden rune traps, Hutao led Wang Daoyi to a secret room.

The secret room is not big, about the size of an ordinary room.

There are no treasures stored inside, only various letters and documents neatly arranged on the four rows of bookshelves.

Hall Master Hu pointed to the deepest bookshelf carelessly: "The oldest information is on the innermost bookshelf. You can find it yourself. I'm going to eat something first, but I'm starving to death."

After saying that, he didn't seem to be worried at all as Wang Dao rummaged through things and went out directly.

Wang Daoyi raised his eyebrows slightly, Hu Tao actually trusted him.

He smiled, walked to the innermost bookshelf, and started reading casually.

"About the impact of the devil's remains on the epidemic and its solutions. 》

"Some Key Points for Making Potions from Chi Blood"

"List of Kitchen God's Favorite Foods"

"Characteristics of Plague and Elimination Methods"

…

A large number of old but complete books are placed here haphazardly.

Judging from the various book titles, it can indeed be proved that these books are the oldest knowledge here.

Except for a few books that record the gods of Liyue, most of the books are about records of epidemics.

This is normal, because the original Rebirth Hall was built to clean up the disease caused by the demon's remnants.

It was not until the later stages or even the end of the Demon God War that the Rebirth Hall gradually transformed into the guardian of life and death.

His eyes retracted from these ancient books and gradually moved to the corner of the bookshelf.

A dark yellow book lay there quietly,

"Effectiveness and Maintenance of the Deception Array"

Sure enough, the Rebirth Hall does have the responsibility to maintain the magic circle.

Wang Dao stretched out his hand one by one, and the dark yellow book flew directly into his hand.

Although the book is still clean, it seems that no one has opened it for a long time. Maybe the last time I looked at it was when I was a child.

Open the book gently,

The first words that came into his eyes made Wang Dao's pupils tremble.

[The 'Deception' magic circle, which originated from the alchemical demon Hagentus, has a very strong concealment effect. According to the information left by Hagentus, this magic circle can even deceive the sky, so it is called deception. Heavenly magic circle. 】

The demon god Hargentus originated from alchemy.

The demon god Hagentus is good at alchemy after all, and may even hold alchemical authority, which Wang Daoyi knows.

He heard from Grandma Ping and others about the story of Gui Shu, and alchemy was what Gui Su was good at.

For now, the immortals still retain some of the alchemy tools left behind after all.

Some are ordinary little things, and some are powerful magic weapons.

However, Wang Daoyi did not expect that Wuwangpo's sky-defying magic circle was actually made by Hagentus.

"But isn't this too much of a coincidence?"

Wang Daoyi frowned slightly,

He returned to Liyue to find Zhongli, who asked him to find Ruotuo. After finding Ruotuo Dragon King, Ruotuo Dragon King told him how to bypass the original shell, and then asked him to find the remains of Hagentus.

Then the magic circle left by Hagentus naturally appeared in front of him.

If there is no problem, Wang Dao will not believe it until his death.

Turning the book in his hand slightly, Wang Daoyi read and thought about these coincidences.

"I have become a god. The so-called power of fate can no longer pull me, but it does not mean that I cannot be 'calculated'. As long as external factors are used well, these coincidental experiences can still be arranged."

“First of all, I came back to Liyue for my marriage to Xiangling and to exchange information about other worlds with the emperor.

Secondly, the first time I learned that Hu Tao and Xingqiu Chongyun were going to Wuwangpo was from the emperor.

Again, it was the emperor who gave me the signal to go to Ruotuo Dragon King.

In the end, four stupid thieves were able to dig through the magic circle covering the narrow gap between life and death, and then forcefully delivered it to me. This is definitely not something ordinary people can do. "

The corners of Wang Daoyi's mouth twitched slightly as the spiritual knowledge circulated in his mind.

He probably already knows who is the ‘mastermind’.

He was able to make so many moves on the land of Liyue, and calculated Wang Daoyi's existence that he hadn't yet sensed.

Apart from Emperor Yanwang, there is probably no other person.

The man behind the scenes was figured out, but Wang Daoyi was still a little confused.

"But why didn't the emperor tell me directly?"

Zhongli obviously knew all these things, but why didn't he tell him directly instead of going through such a long circle?

"Unless there is something restricting Zhongli, preventing him from saying these things directly."

Wang Dao's eyes flickered slightly.

In this world, there are things that can restrict Zhongli, but not many. However, Wang Daoyi happens to know a little bit about it.

contract.

Among common things, only contracts can restrict the God of Contracts.

Zhongli will never break the contract he made.

If someone made a contract with Zhongli so that he could not tell anyone about the [Deception of Heaven] magic circle, that would explain Zhongli's devious approach.

"I just don't know who signed the contract with the emperor." Wang Daoyi thought silently in his heart.

It might be Hargentus, or it might be some other high-ranking being.

But it definitely can’t be the sky.

After all, this magic circle is used to "deceive the sky".

His wandering thoughts gradually stabilized, and Wang Daoyi's attention returned to the book in his hand.

[The 'Deception' array has a total of thirty-six main nodes, and each node is equipped with a suppressor made of the devil's material.

Secondly, there are 360 ​​secondary nodes, and each node requires a high-level magic weapon-level weapon.

Finally, 3,600 small nodes were arranged on the periphery, and each node was equipped with at least one sophisticated-level ballast.

The weapon needs to have the ability to self-repair, conceal itself, and absorb elemental power, and is usually cast in a round shape. 】

Wang Daoyi's face was a little silent, and he had some understanding of the craftsmanship of this magic circle.

If he guessed correctly, the circular ballast he saw before belonged to one of the thirty-six main nodes.

Although the function of the round weapon is very simple, it can be called a five-star magic weapon because of its ability to repair itself after being damaged and to absorb the pure elemental power of Wangdao.

Coupled with other characteristics described in the book, Wang Daoyi made a bold guess.

This magic circle requires 36 five-star magic tools, that is, 36 handed down magic tools, 360 four-star magic tools, and 3,600 fine magic tools.

Coupled with the huge engraving of the magic circle, it is possible to arrange countless precious materials.

Moreover, these magical instruments must have unified functions and may even have unified styles.

I have to say that this is the largest and most terrifying magic circle that Wang Daoyi has seen since he came to Teyvat.

"I can only say...it is indeed a magic circle that can deceive the sky."

"However, such a magic circle is a hidden magic circle between life and death. So, is the secret between life and death more important?"

Wang Daoyi couldn't help but have a rhetorical question in his mind.

A thing protected by a super invincible safe should naturally be more valuable than the safe itself.

Otherwise it wouldn't be funny.

[Keys to array maintenance:

After the formation is completed, the formation pattern has the ability to self-repair, so please focus on protecting the central ballast.

After the ballast is damaged, high-purity elemental power needs to be provided, and the ballast will be automatically repaired.

If any of the peripheral nodes are destroyed, insert the 'key' into the central node and the circle will repair itself.

…

If there is no abnormal movement in the narrow space of life and death, the maintenance time is recommended to be checked every ten years. 】

"Sure enough, the magic circle that can last for thousands of years has the ability to repair itself."

Wang Daoyi was not too surprised.

After all, this magic circle is too big and complicated.

If the magic circle does not have the ability to self-repair, then the maintainer of the Rebirth Hall will be required to cultivate a grand master who specializes in deceiving the sky magic circle in every generation. This is obviously impossible.

As for the 'key' mentioned in the article, Wang Daoyi felt that it was most likely the Staff of Goma.

"However, here there are only maintenance methods and records of the past masters of the past life hall maintaining the magic circle. There is no method of arranging the magic circle."

Wang Daoyi's heart fluctuated slightly,

He already roughly understood what use this sky-defying magic circle had for him.

If such a magic circle could be arranged next to a rift in the world at a secret point, would he be able to escape the perception of the maintainer of heavenly principles and freely travel outside the world?

Even with the help of the power of the magic circle, it is possible to block part of the connection between the original shell and the laws of heaven. Is it possible to use the original shell for one's own use?

Another point is that although Tianli is sleeping now, if He wakes up, who knows what will happen.

Therefore, a magic circle that can deceive the sky is very important to Wang Daoyi.

"The Deception Array covers Wuwangpo, and the most critical place is the narrow space between life and death. If you want to fully analyze the array, you may need to go deep into the narrow space to see the full picture of the array."

Closing the book in his hand, Wang Daoyi had already decided in his heart that he wanted to talk to Hu Tao about entering the narrow space between life and death.

Wang Daoyi put the book about the Heaven-Deceiving Array back on the bookshelf. He did not leave in a hurry, but took out other ancient books and started reading.

These are the wisdom accumulated by the past generations of the Rebirth Hall. As a god who pursues knowledge, naturally he cannot give up such a good opportunity.
