The first volume debuts Chapter 133: Imprisonment Formation!
Before escaping, the man in black robe did not forget to make hand gestures, causing the jade stones of the formation to move and change the formation!
The crack that had just appeared healed instantly, leaving only a tiny trace. The formation's light curtain had two more layers, forming a three-layer light curtain formation!
This is the transformation from an attack formation to a confinement formation!
After the confinement formation was formed, the three layers of light curtains made the scene inside completely blurred, and were able to block the power of spiritual consciousness, making it impossible for the Five Elements Venerable to track the man in black robes!
The man in black robe wanted to trap the Five Elements Venerable within the formation, giving himself enough time to escape!
He was completely at his wit's end. The trump card he was so proud of had no effect on the Five Elements Venerable. The current formation attack was completely unable to break his defense, and he was even using it to create tiny cracks in the formation!
If we continue to pester each other, who knows what will happen!
The man in black robe no longer dared to gamble. He was worried that the Five Elements Venerable might have a trump card to break the formation. If he did not escape now, if he succeeded in breaking the formation, he would not have the slightest chance of escaping!
This formation was his biggest trump card, but it was unable to do anything to the Five Elements Venerable. He could no longer find any trump card that could threaten the Five Elements Venerable.
If you don’t leave now, when will you leave?
By changing the formation and imprisoning him with all his strength, they could delay the time it takes for the Five Elements Master to escape, and it would also be the best opportunity for him to escape.
Even after the man in black robe turned around, he immediately took out his previous flying magic weapon and fled with all his might, not daring to stop for even a moment, because he didn't know how long this formation could trap the other party!
He... is completely scared!
Venerable Five Elements smiled bitterly. It turned out that the man in black was not stupid. He discovered his intention to use the force of the formation to break through so quickly.
Unexpectedly, when the black-robed man saw that the attack of the formation could not break the defense of the Purple Destruction Stick transformed into a sphere, he actually chose to escape directly without stopping at all.
Moreover, he did not continue to attack with the formation so as not to help the Five Elements Venerable escape, but instead strengthened the formation's restraining power to hold the Five Elements Venerable back!
What the Five Elements Reverend had not expected was that this formation could actually switch from attack mode to confinement, demonstrating an extremely powerful confinement force!
This would make it difficult for him to escape in a short period of time. If the man in black robe keeps escaping, the universe is vast and there are countless planets. It would be extremely difficult to find his whereabouts!
At this moment, the Five Elements Venerable who walked out of the sphere transformed by the Purple Destruction Stick suddenly became weak and even vomited blood, as if he could not withstand the attack of the formation and was injured!
It seemed that the Five Elements Venerable had been holding on, but when the man in black robe escaped, he could not help but spurt out blood!
The fleeing figure of the man in black robe paused in the air for a moment. Before he had escaped far, he clearly sensed the scene of the Five Elements Venerable vomiting blood. It seemed that he had been seriously injured!
The man in black robe paused for a moment in the starry sky, with hesitation flashing in his eyes and struggle on his face. He was wondering whether the Five Elements Venerable's vomiting of blood was real or fake, whether he was really injured and vomiting blood, or was pretending to vomit blood to confuse him!
In this battle with the Five Elements Venerable, the man in black robe deeply realized the opponent's cunning and the strangeness of his magic. If he was caught by him again, he would have no chance of escape!
The man in black robe did not turn around, but just paused in the air. After thinking for a moment, with a gloomy look in his eyes, he exerted full speed and rushed away in the starry sky.
Although the Five Elements Venerable vomited blood, it did not mean that it was caused by his injury. This person's magic weapons and techniques were so strange and powerful that he might have extremely sophisticated concealment methods that allowed him to disguise himself as being seriously injured.
If the old fox's vomiting of blood was really a disguise, if I go back, the Five Elements Venerable might be able to escape quickly, and the consequences would be disastrous. I would waste my time using this formation to delay time, but would end up in vain!
This is indeed the fact. Although the Five Elements Venerable was injured by the attack, it was only a minor injury and did not affect his combat effectiveness at all. Vomiting blood was exactly his plan to attract the black-robed man to attack again and use the force to break the formation!
However, he didn't expect that the man in black robe was so frightened that he didn't even dare to turn around and continue attacking him when he saw him vomiting blood, causing his plan to fail inadvertently!
"You little brat, my cultivation has not recovered enough, and I cannot break the formation in a short time, allowing this guy to escape!" The Five Elements Venerable explained to Li Xuanfeng with a wry smile.
If it weren't for the black-robed man's golden flying shuttle and powerful formation , he would have been crushed by the Five Elements Venerable long ago, with no chance of escape, let alone the ability to fight back!
Li Xuanfeng was watching the battle between the Five Elements Venerable and the man in black robe throughout the whole process. He knew what was going on in his mind. Although he was extremely unwilling, there was nothing he could do.
"Your Excellency, I know you have tried your best. Thank you for your help. This is my father's body. I will go and get it back myself in the future!" Li Xuanfeng sent a telepathic message to the Five Elements Venerable, his voice filled with astonishing hatred and determination!
Although Venerable Five Elements heard the firmness in his words, he could feel that the impact of this matter on him was far from over.
But now is not the time to think about this, let’s break the formation as soon as possible.
The Five Elements Venerable's mind moved, and he kept making hand gestures, and the Purple Destruction Stick instantly transformed into three small flying swords!
There are subtle and delicate lines on the surface of the flying sword, and it shines with a deep purple light, like a piece of art.
After the three flying swords condensed into shape, they dispersed into a triangle to form a small formation!
As the light of the formation shone, three flying swords were as fast as lightning, shuttling back and forth continuously in an instant, slashing at the cracks in the formation that had just appeared. In the blink of an eye, tens of thousands of attacks fell on the light curtain!
The light curtain was seen flickering continuously, with countless ripples appearing, but the power of confinement did not weaken at all. The three layers of light curtains were still shining with spiritual energy, as if they were a three-layer steel prison, trapping the Five Elements Venerable inside tightly!
In the time it takes to stick up an incense stick, the three flying swords have already slashed at the light curtain of the formation countless times!
What made the Five Elements Venerable's expression recover a little from helplessness was that although the formation had not been destroyed by the three flying swords, more than ten cracks appeared on it. The inner layer had become much thinner, and it seemed that it would not take long to break through completely.
The eyes of the Five Elements Venerable flashed with interest. He put away the formation formed by the three flying swords, closed his eyes slightly, and seemed to be sensing something!
After the formation turned into confinement, it no longer actively attacked, but only formed a powerful light curtain to block the Five Elements Venerable from escaping. Therefore, the Five Elements Venerable no longer needed to use the Purple Destruction Stick to transform into a spherical defense. Even if the black-robed man suddenly came back and used the formation to attack, the Five Elements Venerable would be able to sense it immediately.
The exquisiteness of this formation surprised even the Five Elements Venerable. Cracks had already appeared on the first layer of light curtain, and it would probably take an incense stick of time to break it. The two subsequent light curtains that had no cracks would take even longer!
According to the estimation of the Venerable Five Elements, if they want to escape by force, it will take at least three days. These three days are enough for the black-robed man who has taken over the body of Li Xuanfeng's father to escape a very long distance. If they want to track him down again, it will be extremely difficult!
Unless the Five Elements Venerable can recover to a stronger level of cultivation, with his spiritual awareness and spiritual power becoming countless times stronger, he will be able to use the secret method of tracking his whereabouts and hunt down the man in black again!
A better idea came to the mind of the Five Elements Venerable. Since it was impossible to escape in a short time, it would be better to break the formation after gaining enlightenment instead of destroying it. He could also keep the formation for later use!
If a powerful attack is used to forcibly break through the formation, it can only be regarded as destroying the formation, which will eventually make the formation scrapped. Only those who are proficient in formations can crack the formation, which can not only remove the formation, but also preserve it intact.
The Five Elements Venerable waved the Purple Destruction Stick, and three jade slips flew out from the Purple Destruction Space and were arranged in three areas of the formation.
Li Xuanfeng's cultivation level was not enough to take out items from the Purple Destruction Space, but it was extremely simple for the Five Elements Venerable whose cultivation level had recovered to the second level.
If Li Xuanfeng's cultivation reaches the second realm, he can also use the Purple Destruction Space as a storage space. Items can be stored and retrieved very quickly, and he can also rely on the mystery of the Purple Destruction Space to make it completely impossible for the enemy to detect him.
After these three jade slips flew out, Li Xuanfeng clearly felt the extremely strong aura of the formation, which was even stronger than the confinement formation here.
I saw countless marks flying out from the three jade slips, which scattered and stuck to the light curtain. The marks of the formation on the light curtain collided with the marks of the jade slips, causing countless ripples to appear on the light curtain!
The jade slip thrown out by the Five Elements Venerable was exactly the tool he used to break the formation. It was engraved with countless formation marks and could be used to break countless different formations.
Formations are an extremely subtle subject. If you don't understand them, you can only break them by brute force. But if you are proficient in them, you can break formations of the same level at will, and even make them your own!
Although formations cannot directly improve combat power, if you can arrange the formations skillfully, you will not be weaker than a cultivator with strong cultivation!
Therefore, the profession of formation master was born in the cultivation world. He can break formations, refine small formations to carry with him, or set up large formations for sects or families.
The Five Elements Venerable was an array master during his lifetime. Although he was not as powerful as his third level of cultivation, he should not be underestimated.
Under the control of the Five Elements Venerable, the marks in the three jade slips kept flying out and sticking to the light curtain that already had several cracks. As time went by, the marks on the light curtain became more and more, and even the original marks on the light curtain had been broken apart!
"break!"
Following a low shout from the Five Elements Venerable, several marks on the light curtain burst out with strong light, directly breaking apart all the remaining marks on the first layer of light curtain, and the first layer of light curtain completely dissipated!
The black-robed man immediately noticed the disappearance of the first layer of light curtain. His face changed slightly, and he immediately cut off the connection with the formation to prevent the Five Elements Venerable from using it to track his whereabouts. He even activated a secret method to make his escape faster, and at the same time used the method of concealment to change direction several times, like a frightened mouse!
After the first layer of light curtain collapsed, the Five Elements Venerable became more skilled in breaking the formation. Although no cracks appeared on the second layer of light curtain, it was successfully broken after eight hours.
Moreover, the second layer of light curtain was not cracked by force, but the key marks were gradually cracked using the array marks, so that the array light curtain dissipated without any damage.
As the first two layers of light curtain were successfully cracked, the third layer of light curtain was unable to hold up and it only took half the time to crack the second layer.
As the third layer of light curtain dissipated, the Five Elements Venerable waved his hand, and the jade stone that the black-robed man used to set up the formation flew over. Countless formation marks flew out of his three jade slips again, entered the jade stone, and began to repair some of the tiny cracks on the surface of the jade stone.
These cracks were caused when the Five Elements Venerable broke the formation. They were inevitable losses when breaking the formation. However, as the mark in the jade slip entered, these tiny cracks began to repair themselves visibly to the naked eye!
The Five Elements Venerable has completely understood this formation, so he naturally knows which formation mark to use to repair it.
After an incense stick of time, the cracks on the jade slip had become barely noticeable. Although there was some slight damage, it was negligible. With the careful cracking and repair of the Five Elements Venerable, this formation was still able to exert the power displayed by the man in black!
Then the Five Elements Venerable made a hand gesture and began to deduce the jade formation. He was deducing the whereabouts of the man in black robe!
He wanted to use the connection between the black-robed man and the jade to deduce where the black-robed man had gone. Although a day had passed and the Five Elements Venerable's cultivation was only at the Human Profound Realm, this was not too difficult considering the realm he had achieved during his lifetime.
However, as he continued to deduce, surprise appeared in the eyes of the Five Elements Venerable. He no longer sensed the connection between the jade and the black-robed man. He did not expect that the black-robed man actually knew how to cut off the connection with the formation. It was extremely difficult to deduce at this time.
After the black-robed man severed his connection with the formation, Five Elements Venerable's current level of cultivation made it impossible to deduce his whereabouts.
In the end, the Five Elements Venerable could only deduce the jade and find out its origin.
With the continuous deduction, a scene appeared in the starry sky in front of the Five Elements Venerable.
The first thing that appeared was a group of asteroids, which were constantly revolving around a huge khaki planet. Then they began to move closer, and the khaki planet began to become clear.
There was a continent occupying most of the planet, shaped like a giant wolf howling towards the sky!
"Boy, remember this planet. The man in black robe is very likely to return to this planet!" The Five Elements Venerable sent a message to Li Xuanfeng.
Li Xuanfeng's expression froze when he heard that, and he memorized this planet deeply in his heart. That would be the place he must visit in the future. He had to get his father's body back, no matter how powerful the opponent was!
Afterwards, Venerable Five Elements began to fly towards the planet where the Spiritual Continent was located. Since he could no longer track the black-robed man, he could only take a long-term approach. Moreover, Venerable Five Elements could no longer use his cultivation level in the Human Profound Realm for a long time!
As he got closer and closer to the planet, Li Xuanfeng saw the appearance of his own planet for the first time. This planet was several times smaller than the one deduced by the Five Elements Venerable just now, and there were dozens of alternating yellow and blue areas on it.
Yellow represents land, blue represents ocean, and the topography of this planet is composed of dozens of land and ocean interlaced.
The planet was shining with blue and yellow light, and looked extremely beautiful, but Li Xuanfeng had no intention of appreciating it at this moment, and remained silent all the way.
The Five Elements Venerable flew towards a small continent on the planet. That was the Spiritual Continent, which was just a remote small piece of land on this planet.
Not long after, the Five Elements Venerable returned to the Spiritual Continent. He did not return to the Xuanling Sect, nor did he return to the Corpse Demon Sect. Instead, he returned to the quiet Taoyuan Village!
Because no one took care of it, Taoyuan Village was extremely desolate at this time. The fields were all covered with weeds, and even many weeds had crawled out of the wooden houses.
This was Li Xuanfeng's choice. After returning, Li Xuanfeng stood quietly by the river in Taoyuan Village, watching the turbulent river water rushing past him.
No matter what happens here, the river still flows by without any emotion.
Nature doesn't care whether the village survives safely, nor does it care if the whole village is massacred. This is the ruthlessness of nature.
Only the people involved will be sad.
At this time, Li Xuanfeng's eyes were filled with murderous intent, but his face was extremely calm. He suddenly whispered, "Venerable Five Elements, I want to know what happened in this village. Do you have any solution?"
Venerable Five Elements understood, and he wanted to know what had happened to his father and how he was possessed by another body.
After discovering his father's possessed body and summarizing various clues, Li Xuanfeng discovered that the massacre of Taoyuan Village was not as simple as it seemed!
When Li Xuanfeng thought of this, murderous intent surged in his eyes, carrying with him infinite murderous intent towards the man in black robe!
From the jade slips collected by the Five Elements Venerable, Li Xuanfeng had already learned about the matter of possession, which can be divided into two types. One is possession after death, and the other is... possession before death!
In fact, Li Xuanfeng already had a vague answer in his heart. He remembered that his father had said casually the day before the massacre that someone was trying to snatch his body from him in his dream!
The Five Elements Venerable sighed softly. No matter who this happened to, it would not be pleasant.
If Li Xuanfeng is not allowed to know the answer, he will be unhappy, and an unhappy heart will lead to poor cultivation, and poor cultivation will make it difficult to improve, let alone to comprehend the power of artistic conception in the Spirit God Realm and break through to the second realm!
The Five Elements Venerable waved his sleeves, and three jade slips that could break the formation flew out again. This time, they were not used to break the formation, but to construct it!
Three jade slips fell on the edge of Taoyuan Village, and spiritual light spread out, turning into three rays of light that shot into the sky, focusing on one point in the air and forming a triangular formation!
At this time, the speed at which the Five Elements Venerable made seals with his hands became faster and faster, and even produced afterimages that were difficult to see clearly. As the last seal was made, the Five Elements Venerable pushed with both hands, and the countless seals in front of him suddenly fell on the land of Taoyuan Village!
The formation shook slightly, and countless traces appeared in the ground. Those were traces of what had happened here!
The traces on the ground began to condense and transformed into illusory human figures that appeared around Li Xuanfeng!
Li Xuanfeng's eyes flashed with countless gleams. He was very familiar with these figures. They were the villagers who died in Taoyuan Village two years ago!
As the figures became clearer, Li Xuanfeng even thought he had returned to his former Taoyuan Village. It was only when one of his childhood friends ran through his body that he woke up from his dream!
That is another world, and I am an outsider who doesn’t fit in!
As more and more people came, Li Xuanfeng discovered his parents among them. The familiar kind faces of his parents appeared in Li Xuanfeng's eyes again, making him unable to hold back his tears!
The last thing that appeared was a young boy, leading three friends, fishing and catching shrimps, climbing trees and digging nests every day, with joy and innocence on his little face.
It made Li Xuanfeng feel extremely familiar yet strange.
That was him!
It is familiar because it is my own personal experience, and it is strange because my personality now is completely different from what it was back then!
At this moment, the scene changed. Li Xuanfeng and his three companions were at the riverside, trying to catch the turtle. Sanniu was being bitten by the turtle and was screaming in pain.
