The night was like water, and the vast Northwest Land was a vast expanse.
A heavy snowfall covered the entire grassland, making it look exceptionally enchanting.
A full moon hung in the sky. Under the moonlight, a green-robed figure walked forward step by step in the boundless snowy plain. A light breeze blew, ruffling the corner of the green-robed figure's clothes. However, the wind flowed past the corner of his clothes and did not blow on his face at all.
A tall Silver Wolf followed him docilely, whimpering from time to time.
"Little Du, we've been walking for a long time. Have we arrived yet?"
"Phew, phew, phew, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm almost there!" After a few whimpers, Little Du actually spoke the human language. Although it was not very fluent, if others saw it, they would be shocked. What did it mean for an evil beast to speak the human language?
Demons were different from evil beasts.
For example, some demons and evil beasts outside the Seven-deity Regions were born with the ability to speak the human language because their parents, or their parents' parents, had become Marquis demons for several or even dozens of generations. Therefore, after they were born, not only could they speak the human language, but they also looked similar to humans. However, Little Du was different. It only had a trace of the bloodline of an ancient evil beast in its body, which was already very thin. After living in the Misty Mountain for dozens of generations, it was actually not much different from an ordinary wild wolf. It could be said that it had completely re-cultivated itself. Generally speaking, such an evil beast could only speak the human language when it broke through the Mysterious Realm and became an Individual Immortal. It was even more difficult for it to transform into a human form. It had to go through the Thunder Tribulation and become a Genuine Immortal. However, Little Du, whose strength was only between Level Eight and Nine, was already able to speak the human language, which was really surprising.
"Is it here?" Zhou Bao suddenly stopped. In front of him was a huge canyon covered by snow. When he approached it, he saw that the canyon was thousands of feet deep. The valley was filled with mist, but it could not block Zhou Bao's marvelous eyes.
His eyes penetrated straight down and saw the situation in the valley clearly.
This valley was not much different from the many canyons in the northwestern region. They shared the same characteristics of desolation and loneliness. The only difference was that there was a well at the bottom of this valley.
Yes, it was a well, a well that was completely man-made, a well that had been dry for who knew how many years.
It was definitely abnormal for such a well to appear in such a place.
Therefore, Little Du informed Zhou Bao immediately.
"Little Du, well done!" Zhou Bao nodded gently. His figure flashed, and the next moment, he fell to the bottom of the valley and landed beside the well.
It really was an ancient well. The mouth of the well wasn't big, and it was made of bluestone. There was nothing special about it. Reaching out to touch it, it was very cold, a bone-chilling coldness. This was caused by the surrounding environment, and had nothing to do with the material of the well itself.
Even standing at the mouth of the well, Zhou Bao could not feel the slightest bit of abnormality about the well.
However, this did not mean that it was normal.
"Eh?" Holding the edge of the well with his hand, Zhou Bao found a problem. A faint force came from the seemingly ordinary bluestone, which resisted his strength and ensured that the edge of the well would not be damaged.
This was not something an ordinary bluestone could do.
"A formation, this well seems to be protected by a formation!" Zhou Bao's heart skipped a beat. He left the edge of the well and began to observe the surroundings carefully. Sure enough, after a while, he found something wrong with the surroundings. The relaxed expression on his face disappeared, and was replaced by a kind of extreme shock.
"A formation, a formation that is completely set up by the essence of the world? How is this possible? "
It was no wonder that he was shocked. As far as he knew, although there were many formations in the world, they all needed materials and tools. For example, his Yin and Yang Dust Formation was powerful, but it also consumed countless materials. Even an ordinary small formation would consume a lot of materials. But here, this small but delicate and mysterious formation was completely constructed by the essence of the world without consuming any materials. How was this possible?
If a formation could be set up in this way, wouldn't it be equivalent to carrying all the formations with you? When you arrived at a place, as long as you slightly fiddled with the essence of the world, any formation could be set up. How could this be possible?
Zhou Bao's heart began to beat wildly. He was not very proficient in formations, but he knew the significance of this method of setting up a formation.
"If I learn to set up a formation like this, who will I be afraid of? If I run around with the Yin and Yang Dust Formation, I'll kill anyone who stands in my way. I'll f * ck up the Divine Wind Palace! " He murmured in his heart, but he did not dare to touch the formation inhibition. Instead, he circled around the well twice, picked up a stone from the ground, and threw it into the well with a plop.
The stone fell straight to the bottom of the well, making a thud, as if it had bounced a little. Then, there was no more movement.
Zhou Bao put his hand into the well again and fished around, but there was nothing special. It was as if he had put his hand into an ordinary well, and all he got was air.
"Interesting!" He turned his head and glanced at Little Du. Little Du gave him a very human-like expression. "I, I, I also, also tried, tried, tried, everything, but I, couldn't get in!"
Couldn't get in!
This was the message that Little Du sent him.
A strange well that couldn't be entered.
Zhou Bao thought for a while, gritted his teeth, and his figure flashed and fell into the well. But the next moment, his figure flashed and he returned to his original position, exactly the same as before.
"What a brilliant Five Elements Reversal Teleportation Formation!" After trying it once, Zhou Bao finally understood the mystery of this formation. He felt that this formation formed a perfect space circulation in this well, a space loop. No matter what method you used to enter the well, you would be transmitted back to your original position because of the existence of this special and fixed circuit. There was no difference at all.
Zhou Bao did not understand formations, but he was very sensitive to space. The fluctuation of space could not be hidden from his spiritual mind.
"This formation seems to only work on living things!" Zhou Bao thought to himself, but his eyes lit up. Then, he operated the Snake-like Breath Holding Skill and completely restrained his spirit. His whole body was like a human-shaped stone, without any breath of life. Then, with a plop, he fell into the well.
This time, the formation did not start and let him fall into the well.
The bottom of the well was several times wider than the mouth of the well, but it was not big. It was just enough for him to stretch his body. The stone he had just thrown in was not far away. When he looked up, he saw Little Du stretching its head out to look around and making a whining sound.
Waving to Little Du, Zhou Bao began to look around at the bottom of the well.
Dry and simple, this was Zhou Bao's first impression of the bottom of the well. His second impression was that it was strange.
He could clearly feel that the bottom of the well was where the Formation Eye of the formation was. Not far from his feet, there was a mass of pneuma condensing and circulating around a mysterious track. This mass of pneuma was just an ordinary pneuma, but it flowed smoothly and endlessly. It contained a very profound truth of the Great Way. But knowing it was one thing, understanding it was another.
Zhou Bao knew there was a lot of truth in it, but he did not understand it. This level of truth was not something he could understand now. The only thing he could do was to firmly remember the track of the pneuma's flow and remember this wonderful feeling.
"Which mighty figure set up this formation? What's the purpose of setting up this formation? Is it just to show off one's skills in formations?" "That's right. What's the use of this formation? Zhou Bao carefully checked the bottom of the well over and over again, but found nothing. He could not help but feel a little discouraged.
Although he knew that in this world, there were some mighty figures with eccentric tempers, but no matter how eccentric they were, there should be a limit. Did he really set up an eccentric formation here for no reason? Or perhaps, his strength was really not up to par, and he was unable to solve the riddle set up by the opponent?
Zhou Bao had some vague expectations and ideas in his heart. "Humph, I don't believe that with my current combat capability of Genuine Immortality and the inheritance of the remains of Innate Deity, I can't solve a formation with so many conditions. Since I can't solve it, I'll use force!"
Violent means were never lacking in Zhou Bao. His eyes narrowed slightly, and the dark golden Gang Qi began to flow. He raised his hand and hit the stone wall at the bottom of the well with the Great Fusion Technic.
"Whew!" A sound similar to the sound made when Zhou Bao first practiced the Three Realms Division. The Great Fusion Technic, which was powerful enough to melt space, just rose up on the wall of the well and then disappeared.
However, Zhou Bao also felt a violent fluctuation in the surrounding space.
"There's a way!" Zhou Bao's heart stirred, and he performed the Great Fusion Technic three times in a row. Each time, Zhou Bao exerted his full strength. Being attacked from the inside, even this extremely mysterious formation was a little overwhelmed. After all, this was not a big formation, but an ordinary Five Elements Reversal Formation. After being hit by the Great Fusion Technic several times, the flow of pneuma in the formation began to stagnate and was hindered. It was no longer as smooth as before. After careful observation, Zhou Bao revealed a knowing smile on his face. He raised his hand and made a stroke. This time, it was not the Great Fusion Technic, but the Space Division Skill. The Space Division Skill cut a flaw in the formation and opened a passage. Zhou Bao stepped into this passage without hesitation. The next moment, he entered a wonderful place.
"Is this the underground?!"
With just a glance, Zhou Bao saw the surrounding environment and knew that he was in an underground cave. However, this cave did not seem to be natural, but man-made. Before he could react, the Dragon Chimera Fire in his body jumped uneasily, and an extremely greedy thought rose in his heart.
"This is … a dragon?! Dragon vein! "
