Now there were not many disciples who could break the formation. Apart from Zhang Yan, there were only eleven people left, eight Clear Qi disciples and three Core Transformation cultivators.
If they wanted to break the formation, they must try all four corners of the formation. Apart from the three Core Transformation cultivators, Zhang Yan had the highest cultivation, so he must go.
Hearing Zhenren Yan's words, Meng Zhen also nodded in agreement. He looked at Sun Zhiyan and said slowly, "Junior Martial Brother Sun? What do you think? " He also understood why his Junior Martial Brother called Zhang Yan to his side. It was rare for there to be such an outstanding disciple in the sect, and he was not from an aristocratic family. Naturally, it was necessary to protect him. In the future, he might be an important help to the master and disciple.
If the disciples in front could find an opportunity to break the formation, there was indeed no need for Zhang Yan to die. Therefore, Meng Zhen had not called Zhang Yan before, which was also to give face to his Junior Martial Brother.
But now it had come to this point. No matter how talented Zhang Yan was, since he had to go to the formation, he would die without a doubt. Fortunately, he could still be reincarnated. After a few years, there would be disciples in the sect who would accept him as a disciple. Although he might not have the achievements he had today, it was better than those ordinary people who didn't even have a chance. It was unknown whether it was a blessing or a curse.
Sun Zhenren also knew that it was useless to stop him at this time, so he said to Zhang Yan, "Zhang Yan, take care of yourself. I will fulfill what I said before." It was still early before noon. Meng Zhen thought for a moment and took out three Jade Talisman. He pointed to the Jade Talisman and said, "These three Tribulation Avoidance Jade Talisman were refined by the elders of the Du Zhen Hall. They can block a full blow from the person guarding the formation. Although they can't really protect you, it's better than nothing. You can take them with you." This Jade Talisman was said to be able to avoid three disasters and nine tribulations, but each person could only use it once in their life. Otherwise, if there were a few more, the four Enlightened Masters would be able to break the formation themselves.
Sun Zhenren raised his eyebrows and said in a low voice, "Zhang Yan, go take one." Enlightened Master Zhu snorted and said, "Junior Martial Brother Sun, this Zhang Yan is only a Xuan Light Realm disciple. How is he qualified to take this Jade Talisman? This opportunity should be left to these three junior martial brothers. They are all Core Formation cultivators and have a greater chance of breaking the formation. Don't be too biased. "Enlightened Master Sun chuckled and said," Senior Martial Brother Zhu, why do you say that? Putting aside his cultivation, Zhang Yan was a true disciple, and he was the first person to willingly challenge the formation. How could he not have a jade talisman to protect himself? Putting aside cultivation, Zhang Yan is a Enlightened Master and is the first person to volunteer to break the formation. How can he not get a Jade Talisman? Daoist Zhu didn't expect this Junior Martial Brother to put aside the face between Enlightened Masters and directly accuse him of having a heart. His face suddenly became ugly, and he said, "Why does Junior Martial Brother Sun have to say this? I'm just stating the facts. Don't drag other things into it! " Daoist Yan waved his horsetail whisk and said, "Senior Martial Brother Zhu's opinion is correct. Junior Martial Brother Sun, don't say anymore."
Seeing his Junior Martial Brothers arguing in front of him, Meng Zhen frowned and said, "Having the Jade Talisman is just delaying a trace of life. It isn't something that can avoid death. Junior Martial Brothers, don't argue anymore. Junior Martial Brother Sun, the three Enlightened Masters have a greater chance of breaking the formation than Zhang Yan. Don't say anymore, lest you hurt the harmony between the Enlightened Masters."
Sun Zhenren smiled and said casually, "Yes, Senior Martial Brother."
Daoist Meng raised his hand and tossed the three jade talismans to the top of the heads of the three Core Formation Old Men. This matter could be considered to have come to a conclusion.
The three Core Transformation Elders originally thought that they were going to die, so they didn't have much desire for the Jade Talisman. Therefore, they didn't dare to be interested in the conversation between the Enlightened Masters, as if it had nothing to do with them. Now that they got the Jade Talisman, they just slightly cupped their hands and didn't take it seriously.
However, their behavior made Meng Zhen think highly of them. There was nothing to say about the Dao hearts of these Junior Martial Brothers, but because of their limited aptitude, they couldn't go further. However, if they went to break the formation, he was sure that if an opportunity appeared, it would fall on these three people. In his eyes, Zhang Yan naturally couldn't be compared with them.
Although Reverend Meng often disagreed with Reverend Zhu and Reverend Yan, he agreed with what they said this time.
Zhang Yan naturally didn't care about these Jade Talisman. He cupped his hands and apologized to the Enlightened Masters, then walked to the side and meditated. His expression was free and easy, not the slightest bit of a person who was going to die.
The four Enlightened Masters also sat under the imperial canopy, eyes closed, and meditated.
Time flowed like water, and ten hours passed in a flash.
The red sun hung high in the sky, and golden light shone on Bamboo Island. Seeing that it was noon, Meng Zhen stroked his long beard and ordered in a deep voice, "The time is approaching, Tong Er, order that person to search." The Tong Er received the order and left. The remaining eight disciples had already been taken care of last night and had been waiting at the foot of the mountain. Now that they had received the order, they didn't delay for even a moment and immediately took their magic tools and rushed into the formation.
According to the previous agreement between Qincang School and the Three Pools, today was the last day. If they couldn't break the formation, then Qincang School would have to lower their heads and admit defeat, and their attack on the Three Pools would be considered a complete defeat.
However, it was clear that the person guarding the formation also knew this, so he didn't do as he pleased like he did two days ago. Instead, he operated the formation with all his strength. The ominous formation seemed to have turbid waves in the sky, and thousands of ominous Qi roiled. The eight disciples didn't even enter the formation for a moment before they all died, turning into eight rays of light and flying out of the formation.
When the primordial spirits were protected by the jade token and flew to the table, Daoist Meng focused his attention and could not help but frown.
Out of the eight disciples, the furthest they could reach was the 36th change, and there were at least a hundred changes in the array formation in these four hours. Although he was able to deduce the last dozens of changes with his profound knowledge of array formations, there were still some parts that were difficult to understand, and he was not very sure about them. He could only rely on his own experience to speculate and fill in the gaps.
After thinking for a while, he nodded and stood up, saying in a deep voice, "The four of you, come up." The three Core Formation cultivators and Zhang Yan walked up together.
Meng Zhen raised his hand, and four talismans flew out, each entering their sea of consciousness.
As soon as the talisman entered the sea of consciousness. It automatically displayed the position of the formation and the path of the door, as if he had experienced it himself.
As for how to move in the formation and how to deal with various situations, after entering the formation, one only needed to combine the spiritual energy with the talisman. At that time, the talisman would automatically jump out and guide the person to break the formation.
Zhang Yan thought for a while and found that the changes in the formation were not difficult. When he deduced the Erosion Runes in the past, he had seen more complicated changes than this, but after watching it once, he remembered it all in his mind. Unlike the other disciples who could only rely on talismans, he believed that even if he didn't have the talisman, he could still break the formation.
However, after looking back and forth a few times, he felt that something was wrong. After thinking for a while, he stepped forward and cupped his hands, saying, "Disciple wants to ask Meng Zhen, on the 19th change in the formation, the position of life and death has already changed. Why did you give up the Kun position and go to the Gen position?"
Meng Zhen casually said, "That's because the Qi in the formation has changed. At this point, life and death have been reversed, and the cycle is endless. This Kun position seems to be smooth and ordinary, but in fact, it has the most changes, and it has the power to turn the world upside down. This Gen position seems to be vigorous, but the changes have reached the extreme. Even if there is danger, according to my previous deduction, I have some confidence that I can get through it."
Speaking of this, he suddenly paused and asked in surprise, "How do you know how to move around this change?"
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "Just now, I have been taught by Zhenren, and I have deduced it again. Knowing that this should be the result, I can't help but feel suspicious, so I asked."
Meng Zhen said strangely, "Well, you can deduce it yourself? Have you learned about formations before? "
Sun Zhenren smiled and said, "When Zhang Yan entered the Lower House, his attainments in the Art of Erosion Glyphs were quite profound. He once deduced the Star Stele under the Cloud Peak and defeated several disciples of the Guangyuan Sect. Senior Brother always said that those who are good at Art of Erosion Glyphs must be good at formations. This must be the reason."
Meng Zhen heard this and could not help but sigh. He said, "No wonder, no wonder. The changes of heaven and earth are all in the Art of Erosion Glyphs. If you are good at deducing Art of Erosion Glyphs and have learned my Formation Stepping Technique, this Four Symbols God Slaying Formation is not difficult to begin with. It is not surprising that you can deduce the changes.
At this point, he suddenly thought that if he had given the Jade Talisman to Zhang Yan, would the chances of breaking the formation be higher? But now that he had said it and even given the Jade Talisman, he could not go back on his words.
He shook his head and waved his hand, gesturing for the Daoist child to deliver the instruments to Zhang Yan and the others.
Zhang Yan took the two instruments from the Daoist child and found that one of them was a dark magic sword. He did not know what it was made of, but it probably weighed more than a hundred kilograms.
The other was a Star Positioning Plate that was full of inscriptions. On it were the celestial bodies, the sun, the moon, and the stars, but it was as light as a piece of paper in his hand.
Zhang Yan's expression changed. The instruments in the hands of the disciples from a few days ago were very different from the ones in their hands. He also remembered the Jade Talisman, which he had never used before. He thought to himself, "It seems that Meng Zhen has used all his tricks and is staking it all on one throw."
Sure enough, the Daoist child brought a few more robes and said, "Please change into them, Uncle-Masters."
Meng Zhen said, "This is the sect's Five Qi Spirit Suppression Robe. It can restrain evil spirits and mihun. Why don't you change into it?"
Zhang Yan and the Three Transformation Core cultivator changed into their magic robes. When they were ready, the four of them bid farewell to the few Enlightened Masters. Then, they rode on the light and flew toward the sea of clouds.
Seeing him leave, many of the junior disciples on the island felt lost. Is this Senior Brother Zhang, who challenged the 611 islands in anger, going to be destroyed in this formation?
Not far from Bamboo Island, a Dragon Fang Flying Ship was floating in the sky.
Feng Zhen stood at the bow of the ship with his hands behind his back. Seeing Zhang Yan fly towards the sea of clouds, he could not help but let out a long sigh of relief.
The danger was finally gone, and his second sister's thoughts were finally cut off.
A smile appeared on his face. He had been standing here for two days and did not see a single person from the Master and disciple Sect come out of the formation. No matter how powerful this Zhang Yan was, he would die for sure this time.
When he heard that the 611 islands were defeated by Zhang Yan alone, he was extremely shocked. After scheming several times, not only did this Zhang Yan not die, but he also became stronger and stronger. What kind of logic was this?
But now, he could completely let go of this thought.
The servant beside him came up and said, "Master, do you want to return to the mansion?"
"No need!" Feng Zhen waved his arms and looked up at the clear sky. His mood was especially good. He slowly sat down and said, "Master, I am in a good mood today. I want to drink a cup here and slowly enjoy the sorry state this Master and disciple Sect is in."
Although Zhang Yan moved together with the three Transformation Core cultivators, their cultivation was above his and they were extremely fast. Naturally, they would not go the same way as him. After a few flashes, they completely disappeared without a trace.
Zhang Yan flew into the sky and was about to enter the sea of clouds. Suddenly, a black light leaped out from the void and drilled into the aperture between his eyebrows, then disappeared.
Zhang Yan was startled and carefully examined. In his sea of knowledge, there was a black light standing upright, emitting an aura as deep as the sea. It quietly waited there, not moving, not showing any malice.
