I picked up skill fragments in the demon world

#84 - Mist growing from the stone wall

Zhang Chen felt that he had seen the truth. All the information was connected, and a clear picture formed in his mind at this moment.

Probably countless years ago, an earthquake occurred here. Even the great tomb arranged with the mighty power of the ancient gods could not withstand the power of heaven and earth. Not only was the True Dragon Tomb torn away from the Emperor Daughter's Tomb, but the True Dragon Tomb also cracked open, causing the dragon energy to leak and its fortune to be absorbed by the earth's veins. Even the Emperor Daughter's Tomb was torn open.

The crack in front of him was torn apart by the earth, and it should lead directly to a certain tomb chamber of the Emperor Daughter's Tomb. The twelfth-order object that emits light inside should be the Emperor Daughter's burial object.

Because of that earthquake, countless powerful people were attracted to investigate. The owner of the white bones should have been the first to arrive here, or the first to notice the mystery of the twelfth order. However, due to the Feng Shui array or other reasons, they could only watch the twelfth-order mystery right in front of them, but could not take it out.

So, he came up with a plan to open up another stone room outside as a disguise, using two extremely precious scrolls and the mystery of the Feng Shui array to hide the stone room inside.

Later, the Qingqiu clan came here to live in seclusion, regarding the "White Fox Swallowing the Moon" picture engraved on the wall as a treasure.

It's just that the owner of the white bones didn't take out the twelfth-order mystery before his death for some reason.

"That's probably it." Zhang Chen had a general understanding of the context in his mind, and he was also secretly surprised. He never thought that he would accidentally notice the location of the Emperor Daughter's Tomb.

He originally thought that the Emperor Daughter's Tomb had disappeared with the passage of time, but who knew that it still existed, but was shielded by the Feng Shui array.

"The twelfth-order mystery! I never thought that Qingqiu Nannan would be able to come into contact with the twelfth-order mystery in her lifetime." Ancestor Nannan's voice was full of emotion.

Zhang Chen glanced at the fox spirit: "You are already dead, what are you talking about a lifetime for?"

When the fox girl Nannan heard this, she glared at Zhang Chen, her eyes full of dissatisfaction: "You are such a spoilsport! Although I am dead, as long as you give me freedom, I can continue to be reincarnated. I, the ancestor, will be a good fox again in eighteen years."

"Go and take out the twelfth-order mystery." Zhang Chen said.

The gap in the stone wall was only the width of a palm, and it was about a hundred meters away from him. His water control technique only had a range of fifty meters, which meant that his idea of using water to roll it out had failed.

A narrow gap of more than one hundred meters, even if Zhang Chen had gunpowder, it would be extremely difficult to blast a passage. Fortunately, the fox spirit could squeeze through the gap in front of him.

When the fox fairy Nannan heard this, her eyes lit up immediately, and then without saying a word, she turned into a puff of green smoke and drilled through the gap, wanting to approach the twelfth-order mystery.

It's just that as soon as the fox fairy Nannan drilled into the gap, she suddenly saw that endless mist was actually derived out of thin air in the stone gap. Zhang Chen saw that the green smoke transformed by the fox fairy Nannan was constantly colliding and窜moving back and forth in the crack, but it could not get close to the mystery at all.

It was as if the mist possessed a special magic power, causing the fox spirit to keep turning around in place, but it could not get close to the secret room at all.

Zhang Chen only saw the green smoke constantly colliding back and forth in the gap, and screams came. He quickly used his skills, and the fox fairy Nannan in the mist disappeared out of thin air, turning into a rune and appearing in Zhang Chen's palm. Then he saw the green smoke twisting for a while, turning into a white fox girl, who was standing beside Zhang Chen with a bruised nose and swollen face.

"Damn it! I knew that if there was such a good thing, how could it be our turn? It turned out that there was the power of the Feng Shui array. Fortunately, you pulled me out, otherwise I, the fox fairy Nannan, would have been planted this time!" The fox fairy Nannan cursed angrily: "I said that since this person has discovered the twelfth-order mystery, why is he still sitting here, facing the obstruction of the Feng Shui array? Although he can see the treasure, he can't get close to it."

Speaking of this, the fox fairy Nannan was afraid that Zhang Chen, this bumpkin, would not know what the power of the Feng Shui array was, so she explained it along the way: "The power of the Feng Shui array is actually an application of the power of the earth's veins, or an application of the power of the dragon's energy and dragon's veins. It contains the power of luck and is the nemesis of us born gods. It is also a means for mortals to trap and kill us gods! Among mortals, there are some guys who are almost demonic in their wisdom and who have mastered the Feng Shui Avenue. Although they are mortals, they cannot be underestimated at all."

"Feng Shui array?" Zhang Chen looked at the mist in the gap, feeling a little helpless for a while: "Can the Feng Shui array also restrain the power of the soul?"

"Of course! The Feng Shui array is the earth's magnetic field, which restrains the power of the soul the most, and the restraint of the physical body is smaller. However, the power of the top Feng Shui array is extremely terrifying. Even a twelfth-order god must retreat when encountering it. There is a type of person among you humans, called: Feng Shui masters. Or they are called warlocks, who are best at manipulating Feng Shui. Once they set up a Feng Shui array, even with the body of a mortal, they can kill a twelfth-order god."

"The Feng Shui array in front of us is at least a twelfth-order existence. If I had a physical body, I might be able to try to break into it, but now I am just a soul state, and I can only be manipulated when I enter the Feng Shui array." The fox spirit paced back and forth anxiously, looking more anxious than Zhang Chen.

"Feng Shui?" Zhang Chen heard this, raised the torch, moved his steps, and came to the gap in the stone wall. He looked at the mist with his eyes and stretched out his hand to touch it, but saw that the mist seemed to not exist at all and could not be touched at all.

The mist was not water vapor, nor smoke, nor smog. It was really strange.

"In the past, that god changed the world for hundreds of miles around in order to bury the Emperor Daughter, so this Feng Shui array must cover at least a hundred miles. The gods used supreme means to gather all the earth's vein magnetic field power within a hundred miles in one place. No wonder even a twelfth-order powerhouse is helpless when they come." Zhang Chen thought to himself.

"Boy, we're in trouble!" The fox spirit turned to look at Zhang Chen.

Zhang Chen stared at the crack and pondered. How could he not know that he was in trouble?

"What should we do now?" Zhang Chen moved his gaze away from the crack and looked at the fox spirit with his eyes.

The fox spirit scratched its head anxiously: "If it really doesn't work, I, the ancestor, can only possess a rat and use the rat's body to drill in, but I don't know if it can resist the erosion of the earth's magnetic force."

Zhang Chen had no choice at this time, unless he configured a large amount of gunpowder and blasted a passage through the hundred-meter bluestone gap, otherwise he could only stare blankly.

"Go catch a rat, and bring it back quickly after you catch it!" Zhang Chen's eyes lit up. The fox spirit's words reminded him that he still had beast control skills that he could use.

His beast control skills could control a radius of five hundred meters. Even if calculated by radius, it should be two hundred and fifty meters. The distance from here to the stone room should be enough.

The fox fairy Nannan did not resist Zhang Chen's instructions. After all, the good fortune in the tomb was not only related to Zhang Chen, but also to her, the fox fairy Nannan.

The fox fairy Nannan turned into smoke and left. Zhang Chen was standing in the stone room at this time, staring at the mist in the gap with his eyes. He saw that the mist in the gap was slowly escaping along the gap at this time. In the blink of an eye, the mist had filled the entire stone room, covering Zhang Chen.

"Indeed, the stone chamber is also within the range of the Feng Shui grand formation. Therefore, even though the fox clan can traverse the void, it's difficult for them to detect the fortune here," Zhang Chen said, standing motionless in the mist. Golden light flickered in his eyes, and the mist within the stone chamber rapidly dissipated, directly pierced by the golden light. His golden light seemed to completely ignore the existence of the mist, as if the entire stone chamber was without it.

However, as Zhang Chen retracted the golden light in his eyes, the clear stone chamber instantly became blurred, and countless mists reappeared.

"My golden light can see through the mist and is unaffected by it," Zhang Chen thought to himself, inwardly shocked. According to Fox Immortal Nannan, the grand formation before him was at least a twelfth-order Feng Shui grand formation, yet it couldn't obscure his perception. What level of power is my Divine Light of Righteousness?

Zhang Chen stood quietly in the mist for a while. The Feng Shui grand formation didn't seem to detect anything unusual. After losing external stimulation, the mist slowly dissipated, vanishing into the air.

Even the mist in the cracks disappeared as well!

However, Zhang Chen still noticed a trace of abnormality. He carefully examined the stone walls of the chamber and finally noticed their peculiarity. The stone walls seemed to have come alive, constantly breathing. With each breath, a faint wisp of smoke flowed out from within the stone walls, but this smoke only flowed on the shallow surface of the stone walls, so faint that it was almost imperceptible. In addition, the area was dim, and the color of the mist was the same as the color of the stone walls, so it was difficult to notice the change with the naked eye unless one looked closely.

"The Feng Shui grand formation is truly incredible. There are magical fortunes in the world, as well as the power of the magical dragon veins. This world is becoming more and more interesting!" Zhang Chen retracted his gaze from the stone walls, stood in place and waited, while his eyes looked into the cracks, searching for a suitable blast point.

If his methods really couldn't retrieve the treasures inside, he would have to go out and prepare a large amount of gunpowder, and then choose to blast it open!

He didn't have to wait long. Fox Immortal Nannan, holding two mice, ran in excitedly. She came to the crack and said to Zhang Chen, "Boy, you have to treat me better in the future. Look how useful I am! Without me, even if the treasure is right in front of you, you wouldn't be able to get it."

After the little fox finished speaking, she looked at the gray mouse with disgust, and then directly threw one of the mice to Zhang Chen: "Hold this mouse!"

Zhang Chen didn't mind. He had been hunting in the mountains for many years, so why would he dislike mice? After the mouse landed on the ground, he quickly stepped on it.

"Don't step on the mouse and kill it."

Fox Immortal Nannan looked at Zhang Chen's rough movements, raised her eyebrows, and instructed with helplessness in her voice.

"I know what I'm doing," Zhang Chen said.

His physical body had undergone a rebirth, and his control over strength was very precise. If he wanted to step on the mouse, he would definitely step on it, but he wouldn't kill it.

Fox Immortal Nannan glanced at Zhang Chen, her eyes revealing deep suspicion, but she didn't entangle with Zhang Chen on this trivial matter. Instead, she directly placed the mouse in the crack. The next moment, her soul directly turned into a wisp of blue smoke and entered the mouse's body.

The mouse struggled painfully, emitting a shrill scream, convulsing and rolling on the ground. After a few breaths, the mouse suddenly jumped up and rushed towards the mist.

However, the mouse didn't run far before mist emerged from the stone wall, trapping the mouse in the crack. The mouse kept spinning in place, unable to move forward at all.

After the mouse wandered in the mist for seven or eight minutes, the white-clothed girl's soul suddenly emerged from the mouse's body and shouted in the mist: "Zhang Chen, save me!!!"

Then, a rune flickered in Zhang Chen's palm, and the rune transformed into the appearance of a girl, standing beside Zhang Chen. At this time, her body was a little pale, looking somewhat illusory.

"This damn Feng Shui grand formation is truly unreasonable," Fox Immortal Nannan cursed angrily, looking at the mouse constantly spinning in the crack. She was afraid that the mouse had fallen into an illusion, and wouldn't stop until it exhausted itself to death.

"What does it feel like?" Zhang Chen asked.

"I clearly felt like I was moving forward, but I was spinning in place. If I didn't have a connection with you in the dark, and could accurately sense the distance between you and me even in the Feng Shui grand formation, I'm afraid I would have been trapped like that mouse. Even with the protection of a physical body, it's no different from being in a soul state," Fox Immortal Nannan said with lingering fear: "This is the first time I've encountered a Feng Shui grand formation. The power of this Feng Shui grand formation has greatly exceeded my expectations. It's truly incredible! I'm an eighth-order existence, yet I have no resistance against the Feng Shui grand formation."

"How can human power compete with the power of heaven and earth? It's normal that you can't defeat the Feng Shui grand formation," Zhang Chen said slowly, and then said to the fox spirit: "Look at my methods!"

"Look at your methods? Could it be that you have a way to break the formation?" The fox spirit looked at Zhang Chen with suspicion in her eyes.

Looking at the expression on the fox spirit's face, Zhang Chen suddenly had a vivid understanding of the word 'suspicion'.

Zhang Chen released his foot and activated the Beast Control skill. The mouse under his feet darted out and drilled towards the crack.

"Damn! You can control that mouse? Is this Beast Control ability?????" The fox spirit cursed in shock, staring at Zhang Chen with horror in her eyes, her eyes filled with fear: "How many abilities have you mastered? It's rare for an ordinary god to master two abilities, but you, damn it, have mastered at least three. You have the Divine Light of Righteousness, Water Control, and Beast Control skills. Do you have any other abilities?"

The fox spirit's eyes were filled with shock, and she looked at Zhang Chen as if she were looking at a monster.

Zhang Chen ignored the fox spirit's surprise and looked at the mouse crawling in the crack. However, the mouse controlled by Zhang Chen was even more unbearable than the mouse controlled by the fox spirit. As soon as it entered the mist, it began to spin in place, constantly circling around, seeming to have a tendency to not stop until it exhausted itself to death.

"It doesn't work?" Zhang Chen frowned. He now realized that he seemed to have really encountered some trouble.

"This Feng Shui grand formation is too difficult to deal with. Otherwise, this White Bone Master wouldn't have been able to come into contact with the twelfth order mystery even until death," Fox Immortal Nannan said dejectedly.

"It's a pity that my golden light can restrain the mist, but I can't get in!" Zhang Chen sighed beside him.

"You're not afraid of this mist?" Fox Immortal Nannan's eyes widened when she heard this, as if she had heard something incredible, her eyes full of horror: "What is your golden light? How can it be so heaven-defying?"

Zhang Chen didn't know what his golden light was, so he didn't answer Fox Immortal Nannan's words, but muttered to himself:

"Could it be that I have to rely on gunpowder to blast open the passage?"

"Don't blow up this mountain, or we'll all be buried here," Fox Immortal Nannan said in a low voice: "Since you have mastered the Beast Control technique, why don't we catch a dozen pangolins and dig open the stone cave sooner or later."

"That's also a way," Zhang Chen's eyes lit up.

"You really dare to think! I'm afraid you'll be trapped to death in the mountain, and you won't have a chance to go out and catch pangolins!" Fox Immortal Nannan spat out unhappily, turned around and wandered in the stone chamber. After a while, she suddenly exclaimed: "Come and see! There is actually a Heavenly Book here that has exhausted its mysterious power!"
