"Cough, cough …"
The martial artist who was thrown out and had his nose broken coughed twice because he was too embarrassed.
"Cough, cough, cough …"
The other martial artist also coughed a few times. It seemed like he had also been thrown out and had his nose broken.
Actually, the two of them were not the most embarrassed. What was even more embarrassing was that there was once a female martial artist who also wanted to break the array on the book. In the end, she used too much force and was ruthlessly bounced out. Her clothes just happened to be hanging on the bookshelf. She was bounced out, but her clothes did not follow and were torn apart. When she fell to the ground, she was only left with a small dudou. She had really lost all her face.
At this moment, the female martial artist also quietly came over. She wanted to see if this new Young Master could break the array. The current Old Mister Zuo Zhuan was really a love and hate affair for them. They loved the knowledge in the array book, and hated that they could not open it and buy it.
"Let me see, he will be bounced out in less than ten breaths."
"Tsk, let me see it will only take three breaths."
The two who spoke were both array masters and had tried to break the array on the book before. Unfortunately, they were all bounced out. They felt that their abilities were not low and this newcomer was definitely not good enough. He probably could not even compare to them. In the end, this sentence was a slap in the face. Because three breaths passed in the blink of an eye, Du Feng was not bounced out.
Everyone could see that his hands were placed on the book. He was not cheating, and it was not just for show. The male martial artist who said that Du Feng could not last more than three breaths quietly retreated to the back. But he still could not bear to leave. He wanted to see what would happen.
"Tsk, it is just luck. He definitely can't last ten breaths."
The other male martial artist was still unconvinced and felt that Du Feng would not last more than ten breaths. But very quickly, he was slapped in the face again. Because after ten breaths, Du Feng was still breaking the array. And his right pinky had actually sunk into the array book.
"Aiya!"
The female martial artist whose clothes had been torn cried out in alarm, because she had also reached this step before. If he was really trying to break the formation, his finger would have indeed sunk into it. At that time, she had been busy for more than an hour and was already exhausted. Only then did she put in a little finger. As a result, he was sent flying the moment he let his guard down.
Deciphering the formation was a huge calculation process, and the deeper one went, the more tired one's brain would be. It was also because of this that the female martial artist was so exhausted that she didn't even protect her clothes. How could she not be shocked when she saw Du Feng insert a pinky finger every ten breaths?
Apart from the female martial artists, there were also some people who had stuck their fingers deep into the books. They all understood what was going on. However, there were some people who passed out from exhaustion after a whole day without being able to decipher the first step. So when he saw Du Feng's finger enter the book, he didn't know what it meant.
"What is he doing? Does he want to destroy the book by force?"
"That won't do. Mister Zuo Xuan's tome is a precious treasure of our North Shore Immortal City."
"That's right. The spell formation enthusiasts of North Shore Immortal City won't allow anyone to destroy the tome."
They had assumed that Du Feng was trying to break the spell formation by force, which would destroy the tome. If that happened, they wouldn't be able to study or play with it anymore.
"What the hell do you people know? He's already broken the first level of the spell formation. Shut your mouths!"
One of the middle-aged men standing near the front of the group had a high position in the crowd. He let out an enraged roar, scaring the crowd into silence. He was the North Shore Immortal City's master of spell formations, and many of the people present were his apprentices. He was in the sixth level of the Golden Immortal Cultivation stage, and had some good spell formation skills. He had a bit of a reputation in the area.
"Master, did he really break the first level? It's only been a while! That's way too fast!"
"That's right, Master. I think he was faster than you."
Some of the apprentices really didn't know how to speak. It was one thing to say that Du Feng had broken the formation quickly, but they had to say that he was faster than their Master. How could their Master put his face in front of them?
"All of you, shut your mouths and watch carefully."
The Master knew that Du Feng had broken the formation faster than him, but he couldn't say it out loud. Otherwise, he would lose face. Now that his apprentices had said it out loud, his expression turned ugly. He could only tell them to shut their mouths, lest they say anything nasty.
In fact, the Array Formation Master still had a fantasy that Du Feng could break the first layer of the Array Formation faster, but it was not certain that he could break the second layer. After all, the difficulty of the second level was different from the first. Some people could break the simpler spell formations very quickly, but not the more difficult ones.
As long as Du Feng couldn't break the second level, the Master would be able to regain some face. Or perhaps Du Feng couldn't break the second level at all, and that was just a flash in the pan.
The Master's lips curled up into a smile. However, this kind of smile only lasted for a few seconds before it immediately drooped. Because just as he was thinking about it, Du Feng's right ring finger also sank into the book.
What, what's going on?
Not only was the Master dumbfounded, but many people who knew about formations were also shocked. In such a short amount of time, he had already broken the second level of the formation. Had this person seen this type of formation before?
They were half right. Du Feng had indeed learned about the theory of left rotation before, so he wasn't running around like a headless fly. However, he had never seen this type of formation before, and only knew some basic principles. Knowing the basic theory of left rotation, and then following the clues to the melon, the speed at which he broke the formation was naturally much faster than others.
What's more, Du Feng's talent in formations was very high. Plus, he knew the theory of left rotation, so he shocked the onlookers.
"I say, could this person be Mister Zuo Zhuan's disciple and deliberately came to make fun of us?"
"En, I think it's possible, or else he wouldn't be this fast."
Everyone was discussing, thinking that Du Feng must be Zuo Zhuan's disciple and deliberately came to the bookstore to make fun of everyone.
"Probably my ass, have you ever seen a disciple spend money to buy his own master's book?"
The shopkeeper on the second floor of the bookstore couldn't stand it anymore. These people were trying to find an excuse for themselves, but they were really deceiving themselves. If this young master really was Master Zuo Zhuan's disciple, he could have just learned formations from his master. Why would he come here to buy books?
