With Deng Ming's help, Lu Ping broke through several Formations and headed towards the Incomplete Space Formation.
Deng Ming was the sloppy man with long beard and long hair. At that time, Lu Ping could not stand this guy's sloppiness and odor, so he shook his wrist. Deng Ming did not see how he made a hand seal, but he felt a whirlpool of water suddenly rise from under his feet with an unparalleled force and swallow him whole.
Just when Deng Ming thought he was going to die, he suddenly felt the dizziness caused by the strange whirlpool disappear. Deng Ming finally felt something was wrong. When he opened his eyes, he saw Lu Ping still standing in front of him. The only difference was that at this time, Deng Ming's body seemed to have been rubbed three times, and he felt waves of comfort.
The surging seawater under his feet even brought a cool breeze into the Formation. Deng Ming suddenly realized something and reached out to touch his head. Sure enough, there was a flash of light. Not only his hair, but even his eyebrows and beard had disappeared.
Deng Ming felt a chill in his heart. He knew that if Lu Ping wanted to kill him just now, it would really be no different from crushing an ant to death. However, his heart immediately relaxed. Since he did not die just now, it at least proved that the person in front of him would not kill him.
Thinking back to how he had ridiculed Lu Ping as a rookie when he broke the Formation, Deng Ming had already guessed the reason why Lu Ping did not kill him.
The Incomplete Space Formation was actually divided into three layers. The outermost layer was almost all the doodles of Formation Masters who had studied the Incomplete Space Formation. It was often used to block some disturbances, but it could also be seen as a test, a test to see if one was qualified to enter the Incomplete Space Sea.
Of course, if one was a beginner in Formation, this outermost simple Formation could be an excellent place to practice.
When an Array Cultivator had the qualifications to become a real Array Master, he would be able to break through the outermost Array Formation and study the middle Array Formation.
On the other hand, the middle formation was the work of the formation masters who had studied the incomplete Space Nether Formation. The power of the formation here was much more difficult to deal with than the formations at the outermost layer. However, most of the formations here were the results of the formation masters who had studied the incomplete Space Nether Formation. It was a tradition that the formation masters had formed with the original intention of protecting the incomplete formation. At the same time, it was also a stage for the formation masters of later generations to compete with each other.
As a result, these formations often expressed the creativity and understanding of the formation master who studied the incomplete formations. The power of the formations might not be great, but they were often ingenious. Although ordinary formation masters had the qualifications to study these formations, if they wanted to thoroughly pass through the middle formations and truly come into contact with incomplete Void Formations, then their attainments in formations had to reach the level of a formation master.
As for the Chain Formation that Lu Ping had triggered earlier, it was already in the middle of the formation.
"Oh, in that case, you're already a formation master, and you can come into contact with the inner Space Nether Formation?"
Lu Ping asked with great interest.
"Of course!"
Deng Ming said with a trace of complacency, "20 years ago, I entered the Space Nether Sea, I was just a cultivator who had reached the level of a formation master. However, in just 10 years, I've broken through from the outermost Array Formation to the true incomplete Space Nether Formation. I'm a genuine formation master. In the next 10 years, I've already completely understood 3 of the Space Nether Formation's formations!"
Lu Ping glanced at the complacent Deng Ming and snorted coldly. "It's only been 10 years since you became a formation master from an ordinary formation master, but you've only understood 3 of the Space Nether Formation's formations in the next 10 years. What's there to be proud of?"
When Deng Ming heard this, he immediately jumped to his feet. He did not even care that the person in front of him could easily turn him into ashes. He said loudly, "You, what do you know? Every formation in the incomplete Space Nether Formation is exquisite, and most of them were left behind by the formation masters of the Space Nether Sect. The formation masters who stayed in the Space Nether Sea all say that if a formation master can understand 7 of the Space Nether Formation's formations, then he's a well-deserved formation master."
Lu Ping really didn't know about this, but he did know that Kong Ming Sect's grand array formation spanned a thousand miles, and there were at least a thousand arrays of various sizes. Yet, an Array Grandmaster was able to reach the level of an Array Formation Grandmaster by just comprehending seven arrays. Lu Ping found it hard to believe.
"Don't think that it's easy to comprehend these 7 formations!"
Deng Ming seemed to understand what Lu Ping was thinking, and he said, "There are countless formation masters from various sects hidden in the Space Nether Sea, and there's no lack of disciples from influential clans and sects. They all have a complete formation inheritance and sufficient resources in their sects, but they still come here to study and study the incomplete Space Nether Formation. There are even many cultivators who spend hundreds of years but are not necessarily able to break through 7 formations and become a formation master. I'm just an independent formation cultivator without a sect, but I was able to consecutively break through 3 of the incomplete Space Nether Formation's formations in over 10 years. I'm not inferior to the formation masters cultivated by those famous sects!"
Lu Ping was slightly surprised, and he could not help but feel a trace of respect for the formation master beside him. It was truly not easy for an independent cultivator to reach this step.
As they spoke, the two of them broke through a formation, and Deng Ming suddenly said, "This is the place. This is the boundary between the middle layer of the Space Nether Sea and the inner layer of the incomplete Space Nether Formation."
Lu Ping looked around and said, "How come there doesn't seem to be any difference? The formations here are all connected, so how can you tell the difference between the remnant formations and the formations left behind by those who came later?"
Deng Ming smiled, and he casually formed a hand seal and struck the formation behind him. A layer of colorful light flashed over the formation, and it immediately calmed down again.
"In order to pay tribute to the cultivators of the Space Nether Sect, when the formation masters left their formations, they limited the light of the formations to 5 colors. Some even did not hesitate to lower the formation's power. However, the true incomplete Space Nether Formations are all colorful."
As soon as Deng Ming finished speaking, he formed a hand seal and a colorful light immediately flashed from the formation in front of him.
Lu Ping nodded, and said, "So that's how it is. Then, where are the remains of the senior cultivator you spoke of?"
Deng Ming said, "It's from this formation in front of us, and it should be around the fifth formation."
Lu Ping turned to look at Deng Ming, and said, "Didn't you say that you could only break through three formations?"
Deng Ming explained, "That's right, when I accidentally broke through the second formation, I could already sense the remains of the senior. Unfortunately, after several years, I could only break through the third formation, and was unable to open the fourth formation. However, now that I have Senior's help, opening the fourth formation won't be difficult."
Lu Ping looked at him strangely, and said, "Do you know what's in the remains?"
Deng Ming said blankly, "I don't know. I hope I can obtain the inheritance of the senior's formation. After all, the things that we loose cultivators practice are often not systematic. For the senior to be able to reach there, he must have broken through at least four formations, or even more. His cultivation in formation is at least above mine."
Lu Ping watched as Deng Ming began to take something out of his storage magic tool, and it seemed that he was going to break through the formation. Lu Ping said, "Are there many remains of formation masters here?"
Deng Ming's speed in setting up the formation slowed slightly, and he slowly said with a somewhat bleak tone, "There are indeed. Some formation masters spend their entire lives studying formations here, until they die in meditation. They have long regarded this place as their home. However, most of them are trapped in the formation while studying it, unable to break it, and gradually die of old age."
As he spoke, Deng Ming skillfully placed several tools used for setting up the formation in different positions, then activated a formation plate in his hand. Several halos suddenly appeared on the broken formation, and a five-foot-tall gate suddenly appeared on the broken formation.
"Senior, let's go. Usually, after these formations are broken by later cultivators, they must be restored to their original state as much as possible. This is the cultivation holy land of formation masters, and everything must be preserved as much as possible so that it can be passed down to future generations. Otherwise, no matter how profound the formation left behind by the Kong Ming Sect is, it won't be enough for us formation masters to break it after thousands of years."
Deng Ming was the first to step into the formation through the gate. Lu Ping thought for a moment, and then calmly shook his sleeves, and then followed Deng Ming into the first layer of the formation.
Watching the gate slowly shrink behind him until it disappeared, Lu Ping looked up. At this moment, he was already in a seven-colored formation space. On the other side, Deng Ming had begun to set up a second formation.
Lu Ping's eyes grew deeper and deeper. He wandered around this layer of the array formation space, casually looking for something.
Seeing that, Deng Ming said, "Senior, I have more or less checked this space. There shouldn't be any traps here. However, once we break the new formation, you will have to be careful. There might be some formations within formations, or traps within formations. Once we step inside, it will be good if the formation is not strong. If it is the other way around, we might end up like the senior's corpse that I saw, trapped inside."
Not long after Lu Ping and Deng Ming stepped into the formation and the gate disappeared, the light from the formation next to them suddenly dissipated. The sound of footsteps rang out and a middle-aged man slowly walked out. Looking at the spot where the gate had appeared, an inquisitive look appeared on his face. He said, "How did this person get here? Could he be a formation master? However, he doesn't look like it. Heh heh, if I meet him somewhere else, I might have to avoid him and feign civility. However, this is a good opportunity to kill him."
