Five Immortals Gate

As for other formations, either it takes a long time for the monks to get familiar with each other before they can cooperate, or the formations can be moved, but they are mainly offensive and much weaker in defense.

In the end, the monks of the two sects picked out four formations. In order to achieve the goal as soon as possible, the discussion process was not very long.

And at that time, Bai Rou weakly proposed that she also had such a formation in her hand.

This formation is the formation brought by Qianluo Ancient Ape, which is the external release of the Canheng Beidou formation, but of course she would not say it directly.

It is just that this formation uses the puppet as the formation center, and then spreads out a defensive light shield to cover some surrounding areas.

However, according to the terrifying attack power of the flying stones here, it is almost necessary to have ten monks to maintain it at the same time, and spirit stones are needed to assist the puppet to operate.

The formation can weaken the external force impact force by about 20% to 30% under the maintenance of such multiple people and spirit stones.

At the same time, after borrowing the puppet as the formation center, this formation will continue to move with the puppet as it moves forward.

Because the puppet is the center of the formation, the formation will not be unstable during this process.

In addition, the cultivators who are not involved in maintaining the formation can temporarily meditate on the surface of the puppet after its body has expanded to restore the lost power.

They will control the puppet to move and also shake off the flying stones close to the body to protect their safety.

As soon as Bai Rou made this suggestion, she immediately attracted a lot of surprised eyes, including Zhao Min, Gong Chenying and Zi Kun. They also didn't know that Bai Rou had this trick.

In fact, this method is not owned by Qianluo Ancient Ape itself, but Bai Rou combined with a defensive inspiration called "Qianjia Yu" in Guan's puppetry to form a new function.

After Bai Rou said these words, others were just very surprised, but in the hearts of several disciples of the Four Elephants Peak in the Wuliang Sect, they were shocked.

Bai Rou is just a cultivator in the Nascent Soul Realm like them, but she has understood the puppet path to such an extent.

They understood more clearly what it meant to use puppets as the core of the formation. This showed that the other party's puppet attainments had begun to blend in with their own.

Otherwise, if they wanted to use puppets to release the formation, this was what too many cultivators in the Four Symbols Peak wanted to do. Even if Bai Rou had not yet reached it, she was probably not far from it.

In fact, Bai Rou really had not reached that step, but she had the strengths of several schools.

After she began to integrate several mechanical puppetry techniques, she could already do some things that needed to be done by realm in advance.

Afterwards, the cultivators of the two sects did not dare to delay any longer. They undoubtedly chose to use this method and took out some high-level spirit stones to give to Bai Rou again.

If they wanted to exert the power of the formation, they would certainly not be stingy at this time. That would be a joke with their own lives.

Sure enough, after they started to move forward again, not only did more than half of their cultivators get a short rest.

At the same time, the cultivators who participated in the protection of the formation also felt the power of this formation in person. This was not as simple as the other party said that it could weaken the impact by 20% to 30%.

It was clear that it could weaken the impact by 50% to 60%, but this was not what Bai Rou said deliberately. She initially thought that it would take a long time to maintain the formation, so she considered the middle-grade spirit stones.

After these people took out high-level spirit stones, she also used these spirit stones without hesitation. Under the high-level spirit stones combined with the Canheng Beidou formation, the borrowing force suddenly increased greatly, and the power was exerted immediately.

It was precisely because of this situation that the cultivators of the two sects persisted in the flying stone area behind.

Otherwise, with the terrifying speed of mana consumption before, they would not be able to walk here now, and their defense would have been broken long ago, and they would have been smashed into meat paste one by one.

And during these days of walking, they not only saw the power of this formation, but also saw the important role played by those physical cultivators.

As long as they stepped forward to protect the formation, the time they persisted in maintaining the formation was several times longer than that of the magic cultivators.

Especially the three people who had formed a defensive body with Bai Rou, they even used their physical bodies to force a way out of the formation in some critical moments.

And after each shocking attack, the three still seemed so relaxed and did not look too tired.

Of course, the other physical cultivators also performed well, but they were much inferior to Zhao Min, Gong Chenying and Zi Kun.

This made the cultivators of the Miesheng Sect grit their teeth and persist, and they naturally did not want to lose the reputation of their sect.

The messy methods of the cultivators of the Wuliang Sect were small tricks that they, the pure poison cultivators, looked down upon in the past.

Now, in comparison, in addition to using poison techniques, everyone has endless other methods to deal with more complex environments, and they are not as good as them.

This made a group of cultivators of the Miesheng Sect remember others' evaluation of the Wuliang Sect---using every possible means.

…………

“This is the real hellhole!”

Fanan cursed in his heart. They could not come to this twisted area, but they would definitely not be willing to enter.

As soon as he entered, his perceptions immediately became problematic, and his mana also felt empty. Although he had expected this, he still cursed in his heart.

They are the controllers of the underworld, and to a certain extent, they are real ghosts of the underworld who can control the cycle of life and death, but they still can't understand the weirdness of the "Underworld River".

Soon, Fanan adjusted his state. His figure was almost indistinguishable from the dark blue sky, and the shadow became completely transparent.

He held the three-pronged fork in his hand upside down with one hand, with the fork tip facing up and erected behind his back. He began to search around silently.

Whether it is judging from the age of the "Bianhua" that Li Yan wants to pick, or the fact that the two ghosts of Xue Tao and Li Yan did not appear in the "Soul-casting Pool" after being identified.

His key search area must be on and along the "Underworld River", but the "Underworld River" is too long, and Fanan doesn't know whether he will search in the wrong direction.

So he decided to take the position reported by Li Yan as the center, and then search in one direction for 10,000 miles after approaching the river bank.

No matter how fast the other party can run, it is impossible for him to escape this range after worrying about the weird monsters in the river for so many days.

Moreover, Fanan only considered the area on this side of the river bank. He did not even think that Li Yan and the others had the ability to cross the river to the other side.

After finding nothing in one direction, he would search in the opposite direction. He was flying to search, and this distance was actually very fast, but he needed time to carefully explore.

At this time, Fanan still did not expect that there would be a cultivator who could recover his cultivation here.

But he could realize one thing, that people like Li Yan might have means that even Lord Minghuang Ye Luo had not discovered.

Now such a situation has occurred, causing the death of the two ghosts of Xue Tao. It should be that after Li Yan's mission expired and did not appear, the two ghosts had problems in the search process.

There are other possibilities here, such as Li Yan and Bro were really swallowed by the strange monster in the river during the mission.

The two ghosts of Xue Tao might also be accidentally attacked by the strange monster in the river after discovering the clues, which is also quite possible.

What he feared the most was that Li Yanzhen would appear with undiscovered means, and might kill the two ghosts of Xue Tao, who were equivalent to the human race's Divine Transformation Realm, in a sneak attack...

All of these might exist, so Fanan had to be on guard, but in his mind, he was actually more inclined to the first one.

About an hour later, Fanan in the void had begun to search in the opposite direction. His search was truly exploring all the way along the sky above the "Minglun River".

"If there is no result in the reverse search, didn't the other party come into contact with the "Minglun River"?"

In the process, Fanan also encountered some other ghosts, which were all fierce ghosts that were brought here by the deputy prison head and then scattered to search.

But they were all avoided by Fanan. It was difficult to find traces in the river. Once a person fell into the "Minglun River", you might not be able to see the other party's figure in a certain area in the center of the river.

The river water here is flowing, and the things that appear in the water in the center of the river are also changing all the time. It is not easy to find the target you need.

But he didn't completely deny that he couldn't see his target's floating figure in the river, and he would also hope for clues on the shore...

After more than an hour, Fanan still didn't find anything, and he couldn't sense the breath of human cultivators here.

So he immediately moved away from the "Minglun River" and started searching again along this range.

At this time, Fanan still had no clue, and the two ghosts had completely disappeared.

Even if Li Yan had some hidden means, there were many restrictions on using them, otherwise the other party should have used them in advance while his lifespan was long.

Now Li Yan's state is not as good as when he just came in. If the two ghosts of Xuetao really died at the hands of the other party, it would basically be an attack.

But he has divine consciousness. As long as Li Yan does not recover to the Refining Void Realm, he can completely search for the other party's breath.

Of course, he didn't think that Li Yan could recover. It was just a dream. It was sealed by Lord Minghuang.

Soon after, a large area of ​​towering "ghost thorn" mountains appeared in Fa Nan's sight. Other ghosts searching for this place have not come yet.

They are not as fast as Fa Nan, and the areas searched by those ghosts are also focused on the water of the "Minglun River" and the places with more "Bianhua".

Such endless "ghost thorn" mountains will naturally be searched, but there must be a sequence. Fa Nan searched here first.

He just stopped suddenly after flying for a distance.

Fa Nan found that there were some traces of broken "ghost thorn" spikes on the "ghost thorn" mountain below, and they spread to the depths.

"Well, there are cultivators here?"

After a short pause, Fa Nan immediately followed these traces and flew forward!

But when he flew about 700 miles, he showed surprise on his face.

He knew that some cultivators could walk on the Ghost Thorn Mountain with their flesh alone, but he was surprised that they could walk hundreds of miles at once.

But when they reached here, the spikes broke and they did not move forward, and then turned to the direction of the Dark River.

"Is there someone turning from here to the river?"

Fannan's consciousness began to scan again. He tried to block all kinds of feedback information that made him dizzy. After about seven or eight breaths, his eyes suddenly looked at a place.

There was a sunken area surrounded by "ghost thorns" and some "Higanbana" grew there, and they all looked good.

He immediately turned around and flew over...

Fanan looked carefully below. This was a sunken area, about several dozen feet long, with some "Higanbana" growing on the exposed ground.

There were also traces of "ghost thorns" being crushed and broken around, and there were some footprints on the ground, which showed that someone had been here.

"If this is where Li Yan came from, there would already be enough "Higanbana" of sufficient age, why did he go to the "Minglun River"? "

Fanan looked in the direction of the "Minglun River", and then he turned around again and flew all the way along the direction where the spikes were broken...

What he didn't know was that there were actually other traces left around, but they were all moved by someone's magic and covered by other "ghost thorns".

And even a very eye-catching pit here had disappeared when he arrived.

So Fanan followed the traces and came to a place about a mile away from the "Minglun River", where the "Ghost Thorn" mountain was about to disappear.

But after Fanan just glanced around, he saw a fallen "Ghost Thorn" tree near the river.

If this "Ghost Thorn" tree was only seen from the top of the "Minglun River", it would not attract much attention.

But this made Fanan, who had been following the broken traces left on the "Ghost Thorn" mountain, immediately have different ideas in his mind after seeing it at this time.

"This is..."

Just looking at the fallen "Ghost Thorn" tree, Fanan could not find any other traces around the tree, as if someone had thrown it over.

For a moment, he was a little confused. Obviously, this was done by human power, but what did it mean?

The ghost plants and weeds in other places near the "Ghost Thorn" tree were not trampled and felled at all, and it didn't look like someone was fighting.

It seemed that someone came here and wanted to use the "Ghost Thorn" tree to cover and pick the red spider lilies in front? But in the end, he probably didn't go there.

"Isn't it Li Yan? Is it another cultivator who came here to pick the 'Higanbana', but later gave up because he felt it was too dangerous?"

The slight traces here can't explain why the two ghosts of Xuetao are here, and there is a possibility of an ambush.

Fanan had to turn back again. The place where the "Higanbana" was not picked was actually the most suspicious place.

These cultivators are ruthless. They came to the river to pick the "Higanbana". Why would they give up the safe place and not do it?

In the darkness, a pair of eyes were watching Fanan's leaving figure, and quietly followed him...

Li Yan had been waiting at the place where he was going to go out after completing his mission. Of course, he saw a large number of ghosts who came here to search.

He even sensed that one of the skinny ghosts exuded the terrifying power of the Hades realm, which was quite powerful.

Although Li Yan had never seen this ghost, he found that its appearance was very similar to that of the deputy prisoner Chi Han...

Li Yan hid there to see if these evil ghosts had any special means to track him.

But it was obvious that the other party did not find his existence, but led people to the edge of the twisted zone without stopping.

After just a little exploration, a group of ghosts flew to the direction of the "Underworld River", which was consistent with some of his guesses.

The ghosts did not dare to leave their marks on people like them!

While thinking quickly, Li Yan was thinking about how to quietly take down the skinny evil ghost. This was an evil ghost in the realm of Hades. If his identity was that of the deputy prisoner, he must know a lot of secrets.

But just when Li Yan was thinking about how to do it, he unexpectedly sensed a familiar figure, flying quickly and quietly.
