"No, I can go up myself!" Ping Yang looked at Fang Zhengzhi and Yun Qingwu, who was in Fang Zhengzhi's arms, and rejected him directly.
Moreover, after rejecting him, Ping Yang actually dashed towards the chains. With a leap, she landed firmly at a height of six meters.
Then, Ping Yang turned around.
She looked down at Fang Zhengzhi from above, revealing a haughty expression. Then, without waiting for a moment, she sprinted up.
It had to be said that Ping Yang was quite agile. Moreover, her speed was fast enough. After all, it was very easy for a Sage to climb up a chain.
However …
After running for less than a hundred feet, Ping Yang's body shuddered. It felt as if she had been hit by something. Even her hair stood on end.
"Indeed, you are quite resistant to electricity." Fang Zhengzhi's lips curled into a smile. Then, he looked at the bottom of the chain, at the densely packed diagrams.
It seemed like someone had purposely drawn it on the ground. However, a portion of it had been erased and what was left were only some traces of the patterns.
However, despite that, one could still tell that the patterns seemed to be made up of many different formations. The patterns seemed to correspond to the nine chains in front of him.
"I see." Fang Zhengzhi nodded.
At this moment, a blood-curdling scream came from above his head. Then, a figure fell from above.
Fang Zhengzhi's body moved slightly. He reached out with one hand and caught Ping Yang who was falling down. Then, he squeezed her in his arms.
Then, without waiting for Ping Yang to say anything, he dashed towards the chains. The Black-Golden Wings on his back spread open and a strong gust of wind blew.
"Don't … don't step on the chains, there … there are lightning bolts on it …" Ping Yang was in Fang Zhengzhi's arms and her clear eyes were filled with anxiety.
"I know," replied Fang Zhengzhi casually.
"Fly, fly …"
"Do you think you won't be electrocuted just because you can fly?" Fang Zhengzhi was speechless and amused by Ping Yang's reaction.
However, he knew that Ping Yang was stubborn, willful and a little competitive. However, that was also why Ping Yang was so cute.
"I can be electrocuted by flying? How did you know? "Ping Yang was clearly in disbelief.
"You're the one who told me this?"
"What did I tell you?"
"Yes, you told me before that Mu Qingfeng had entered this place once, and after he entered, he specially went out to call Chi Guyan in." Fang Zhengzhi explained to Ping Yang as he sprinted upwards.
"What does this have to do with being electrocuted in the air?" Ping Yang didn't quite understand.
"Take a look at the pictures on the ground." Fang Zhengzhi did not explain directly. Instead, he looked at the marks on the ground.
Ping Yang's gaze immediately turned downward.
Although Fang Zhengzhi had already carried her three feet away from the chains, she could still see the blurry marks on the ground.
Then, Ping Yang widened his eyes.
"You … shameless guy, you already knew about it?" Ping Yang's face turned red after she saw the patterns clearly.
"I just saw it too." Fang Zhengzhi was not stupid enough to say that he had seen the marks on the ground when he was cutting them down.
After all, he would be beaten up easily.
Most importantly, he wasn't sure if the patterns had anything to do with the nine chains in front of him. After all, he would only know by doing it.
And Ping Yang had successfully done it for him.
Therefore, no matter how stupid he was, he could guess that the patterns were left behind by Mu Qingfeng after he brought Chi Guyan in.
Who was Mu Qingfeng?
He was the Pavilion Leader of the Heaven Dao Pavilion, and one of the most powerful people in the Holy Region.
The only reason why someone like him would return after entering the Black Stone Palace was that Mu Qingfeng had met with a problem that he couldn't solve.
If he couldn't solve it with his power, he would have to rely on his brain.
Brains were a good thing, and Mu Qingfeng didn't lack it. He didn't need to go out and ask for help to solve some normal mechanisms.
But the fact was that Mu Qingfeng went out and brought Chi Guyan in.
This meant that in the Heaven Dao Pavilion, only Chi Guyan could solve this problem.
At this point, the answer was very obvious.
Mu Qingfeng was a sword cultivator and had a strong mind. Even though he was strong, in terms of breaking and dissolving formations, even Mu Qingfeng could not compare to Chi Guyan, who was born in the Divine Constabulary and had been studying formations and military books since young.
Of course, there was one more thing that could prove this deduction.
There were no corpses of the disciples of the Human Alliance on the ground.
How could the disciples of the Human Alliance who entered the palace successfully go up when even Ping Yang couldn't break through the nine black chains?
The only possibility was that Mu Qingfeng had a way to break the nine black chains before him.
"Are we just going to go up like this? Then what about Mo Shanshi and the rest …? "Ping Yang started to worry about the Human Alliance after figuring out the logic behind it.
"Although Chi Guyan is very powerful in the study of formations, she isn't the best." Fang Zhengzhi could guess what Ping Yang was worried about.
"Oh … I understand now!" Ping Yang came to a realization.
What kind of place was Fu Xi Valley? It was one of the sects that had the deepest study of formations among the five sects of the Holy Region. Therefore, how could Mo Shanshi not be able to solve the formation in front of them?
"Even I can roughly figure out the formation in front of us from the traces. That old man Mo Shanshi should be able to see it more clearly than me." As Fang Zhengzhi said that, he quickly changed his position on the chains.
Just as he changed his position, a bolt of lightning flashed and disappeared at the spot where he originally stood, making a soft sound.
"You understood it just by looking at it?" Ping Yang was shocked when she saw this. After all, a portion of the diagrams had been wiped off.
Mu Qingfeng and the rest must have wiped it off on purpose after they went up to prevent the monsters and demons from charging in and at the same time, to buy some time.
"Why don't you guess?" Fang Zhengzhi chuckled.
"I thought that only Sister Yan knew about formations. I didn't expect a shameless brat like you to know about formations too." Ping Yang's eyes lit up when she heard Fang Zhengzhi.
"Are you that confident in me?"
Clang …
Before Ping Yang could finish her sentence, her body suddenly trembled. Then, her hair that was already standing on end stood up even more.
She was electrocuted!
Fang Zhengzhi and Yun Qingwu were electrocuted together with her.
The three of them were in one body. There was no way for them to escape.
Fang Zhengzhi shifted his body and was not surprised by the electrocution at all. He flapped his black-golden wings and quickly switched to another chain.
"Shameless brat, didn't you say that you understood it?!" Ping Yang was furious.
"Did I say that?" Fang Zhengzhi looked innocent.
Understanding the traces that were wiped off was undoubtedly more difficult than drawing the traces. Evidently, Fang Zhengzhi's attainment in formations was not as good as Chi Guyan's.
It was just so-so. This was Fang Zhengzhi's true description of the formation.
However, Fang Zhengzhi had already understood part of it. Furthermore, he was more powerful than Mu Qingfeng and was confident that he could break through it.
"Ah … I'm going to be electrocuted to death!" Ping Yang exclaimed after she regained her senses.
"Are you stupid? If you want to be electrocuted to death, why don't you kill me first?" Fang Zhengzhi felt helpless.
"Hmm? Why? " Ping Yang did not understand, but her expression quickly returned to normal. It was obvious that she had been pretending to scream just now.
"It's difficult. Didn't you feel that the lightning didn't hurt you?"
"Now that you mention it … It does seem to be the case. Why did that happen?"
"Nonsense! I'm taking it! "
"I see, then I have nothing to worry about. However, since you were taking the lightning, why did I still get electrocuted?" Ping Yang nodded and suddenly asked confusedly.
"We should go through thick and thin together. I was afraid that you would fall asleep."
"…" Ping Yang's mouth moved. She stared straight into Fang Zhengzhi's eyes and clenched her fists tightly.
However, she did not punch him with her clenched fists.
That was because when she clenched her fists, she saw Fang Zhengzhi blink his eyes and lightning flashed across his eyes.
At the same time, Fang Zhengzhi turned around and landed on another black chain.
It was obvious that Fang Zhengzhi was electrocuted again.
However, this time, Ping Yang did not feel the attack of the lightning. She only felt a slight numbness in her body. There was no pain at all.
"Shameless brat …" Ping Yang leaned her head against Fang Zhengzhi's chest. She knew that even though Fang Zhengzhi said that, he was actually enduring the lightning from the black chains alone.
And those strikes just now …
Fang Zhengzhi probably did not fully understand the strength of the lightning.
…
As Fang Zhengzhi leaped, the three of them got closer and closer to the black thundercloud above the nine black chains.
The closer they got, the louder the rumbling of the thunder became.
They were getting closer, getting closer!
Just as the three of them charged into the thundercloud, Ping Yang felt a warmth on her body. A set of black armor flowing with golden light appeared on her body.
Lightning flashed.
A bolt of lightning fell, bombarding the black armor continuously. However, Ping Yang did not feel any pain. It was as if he was soaking in warm water.
Not only did she not feel any pain, she even felt a sense of enjoyment.
"This shameless brat is getting more and more powerful …" Ping Yang looked up at the figure in front of her, who was also covered in black armor. She hugged him tighter and tighter.
"Boom!" A golden bolt of lightning flashed across the sky.
Fang Zhengzhi hugged Ping Yang and Yun Qingwu and twisted his body in a weird way. At the instant when the golden bolt of lightning struck him, he actually moved two steps to the side.
The golden bolt of lightning struck the sky.
Fang Zhengzhi continued to charge towards the top of the thundercloud.
Ping Yang was so shocked that her mouth was agape. That was because she could not believe that Fang Zhengzhi's speed was comparable to that of the lightning.
"When … when will I be able to reach this level …?"
"Boom!"
Just as Ping Yang was thinking about this, the black thundercloud in front of her disappeared. Then, she realized that she had arrived at a whole new world.
The rumbling sound of the lightning had disappeared.
What appeared in front of her was a beautiful and stunning scene. Countless mountains stood in the surroundings. Each of them floated on top of the white clouds.
Below her feet was also a mountain, a mountain that towered into the clouds. Emerald green plants densely covered the mountain, and ancient trees grew one after another.
However, the strange thing was that …
These ancient trees did not grow towards the sky. Instead, they looked like they were hanging upside down. The tips of the trees were facing the ground.
It was a strange and stunning scene.
Ping Yang looked around her surroundings. Then, her mouth opened wider and wider. That was because she realized that not only the trees on the mountain beneath her feet were like this, but the waterfall in the distance was also like this.
The silvery-white waterfall flowed from the bottom to the top. When it splashed on the rocks, it shone like stars.
Furthermore, it was not only the mountain beneath her feet. The trees, grass, and waterfalls on the mountains in the distance were all like this.
All the mountains were hanging upside down in mid-air.
Those clouds …
They should be the clouds on the mountain peaks!
However, what they were stepping on was not a mountain peak, but the bottom of the mountain.
They were stepping on the bottom of the mountain!
"Wow, this place … is so beautiful!" Ping Yang exclaimed in amazement. She was actually admiring the beautiful scenery.
"Hmm, it is indeed beautiful." Fang Zhengzhi nodded in agreement.
Although the world in front of them had been flipped upside down, it gave them a feeling that they had never seen something like this before.
The word "beautiful" was not enough to describe it.
However, the only flaw was that there were countless pairs of eyes staring at the two people who were "sighing".
"Who are you!"
"Who is it?!"
Two people who had barged into this strange world but were only "blindly" admiring the beautiful scenery around them. It was difficult for ordinary people to understand their thinking.
Moreover, when they focused their attention on the two people, they saw a lady in a snow-white dress.
The lady was in the arms of a person with a black cloth covering her face. Her eyes were shut and she looked like she was in a coma.
"Could this be …"
"Yun Qingwu!!!"
"The son of the monster and demon, Yun Qingwu?!"
Everyone's eyes widened. If not for the black cloth covering their faces, they would definitely be able to see their exaggerated mouths.
