According to the contents of the Photographic Crystal, there had been no problem when the imperial army had attacked Willow Water City during the day.
But when night fell, things suddenly changed.
Three thousand Immortal Realm soldiers of the Immortal Court suddenly rushed out from the shadows and launched a sneak attack.
If it hadn't been for the sneak attack, the imperial army would have been able to kill more Immortal Court soldiers.
Now that things had come to this, there was no point in talking about it.
However, when he looked at the contents of the Photographic Crystal again, Lin Qian found two pieces of information.
Dark night. Shadows.
He looked up. The Flaming Sun Star was still hanging high in the sky. He would have to wait until the cold moon rose to the sky to see what it was.
The Scribes of the Ministry of Heavenly Works were doing their best to build the formation. Ye Xuanyan, who was curious, also lent a hand.
However, the mighty Human Ancestor Xuan Yan could only be an assistant to the Scribes of the Ministry of Heavenly Works.
Indeed, he was stronger and more skilled in terms of cultivation base. However, in terms of formations, he was still far from the Scribes of the Ministry of Heavenly Works.
Moreover, in order to ensure that the formation of Willow Water City could be built in the shortest time possible, Lin Qian had summoned the Scribes of the Ministry of Heavenly Works from the Mystic Illusion Planet. They were the elites of the elites.
As Ye Xuanyan followed behind them, he was able to learn a lot and benefit a lot from them.
However, he didn't expect that a formation could be built in this way.
He even found that the formation set up by the Scribes of the Ministry of Heavenly Works had the shadow of an ancient formation. It was like a combination of an ancient formation and a new formation.
Ye Xuanyan asked out of curiosity. He learned about the formation from the Scribes of the Ministry of Heavenly Works. It was true.
Although it was only an experimental product and not the final version, it should be more than enough for defense.
When the two marshals of the Shang Yuan Celestial Kingdom arrived with their army, he could test the formation and see if it worked.
After hearing the explanation of the Scribes of the Ministry of Heavenly Works, Ye Xuanyan was dumbfounded.
The Scribes of the Hua Xia Empire were too terrifying. They had just solved the enemy's formation, and the next moment, they were learning from the enemy's methods?
"You can only improve by learning. You can only improve by learning from your subordinates. Even if you are an enemy, you must learn from them." The words of the Scribes of the Ministry of Heavenly Works rang in Ye Xuanyan's ears.
Ye Xuanyan suddenly remembered that the Immortals were sometimes powerless against the enemy 'power and methods. When they were disgusted, they wanted to destroy the enemy' methods instead of learning from their methods.
"The Immortals are unbearably stupid. They're just standing in place. If they don't die, they'll become the parasites of the Chaosverse!" The words that Lin Qian had once said to him suddenly rang in Ye Xuanyan's mind. Now, he had a deep feeling for them.
Lin Qian stood quietly on the Emperor Warship with his hands behind his back, waiting for the night to fall.
As for Lin Zu, he walked back and forth in the city in all sorts of ways. He observed the city and wanted to see if he could find any loopholes or discoveries in the city that could help his grandson.
As time flowed by, night gradually arrived. The entire Willow Water City had sunk into darkness. Lights were gradually lit up in the houses, gradually illuminating the entire Willow Water City.
However, when the lights were lit up, there would always be shadows and darkness.
Although the night was a reward, Lin Qian was confused and did not notice any problems.
"Where exactly is the secret of this city?" Lin Qian thought to himself. He paced around the deck of the Emperor Warship, thinking carefully.
Suddenly, when Lin Qian looked into the distance, he felt that there was something wrong with the shadows that appeared under the illumination of the bright houses.
The formation of the shadows was like a painting.
A light flashed in Lin Qian's mind. He seemed to have understood something. He quickly ordered the Emperor Warship to rise into the sky and continue to rise.
Lin Qian's order made the Scribes in the Emperor Warship get busy. They quickly drove the Emperor Warship to rise into the sky.
Ye Xuanyan and Lin Zu, who were in the city, immediately sensed the movements of the Emperor Warship. They felt that something had happened and flew over.
When they arrived on the deck of the Emperor Warship, Lin Zu was the first to come to Lin Qian's side. He asked with concern, "What's wrong?"
He thought that his grandson must have encountered some trouble. Otherwise, he would not have ordered the Emperor Warship to rise into the sky.
However, Lin Qian did not directly answer his grandfather. Instead, he walked to the front of the deck and looked down at the situation below.
"Grandpa, Senior, come and see." Then, Lin Qian smiled as if he had expected it. He beckoned the two of them to come and see.
Lin Zu and Ye Xuanyan curiously followed. They stood beside Lin Qian and looked down.
When they looked at the situation on the ground, they were stunned. Then, they suddenly understood.
"I see. Hahaha." Ye Xuanyan, who was next to them, was the first to see that there was something fishy about the situation in the city below. He laughed out loud.
Lin Zu, who was next to him, also nodded secretly. He looked at his grandson and said, "You can see it. Haha."
Lin Qian also nodded secretly. The dark shadows of the houses below were obviously forming a magic array.
However, some of these lights were bright, some were dim, and some were extinguished. The entire magic array was not formed successfully.
However …
Lin Qian abruptly raised his head and looked at the sky. He looked at the moon that was continuously rising into the sky.
In Willow Water City, there was a rule. At midnight, lights were not allowed to be lit. Otherwise, they would be executed.
However, in the city, there was only one place that was not bound by this rule. It was the city lord's residence.
Originally, when Lin Qian learned of this rule in Willow Water City, he did not know what it was for.
Now, he finally understood. It was to control the activation of the magic array.
Once the moon reached the top of Willow Water City, the entire city would be illuminated by the moonlight. That would be the time when the formation would be completely opened.
However, if the lights of the city lord's residence were bright, the magic array would be damaged and would not be able to be activated.
As long as the lights of the city lord's residence were extinguished, the magic array would be activated. It would open a passage through the space crack and lead to the underground.
In this way, the lights of the city lord's residence at midnight would be the key to the activation of the magic array. It could be controlled perfectly.
Lin Qian rejoiced. If he had not destroyed the city wantonly when he attacked, this magic array would have needed to be repaired. It would have been a waste of time.
Now, he just had to wait quietly for the moon to rise to the highest point and activate the magic array.
