Countless questions lingered in Qin Yi's mind.
Needless to say, Qin Yi's mental fortitude was on full display at this moment. If it were someone with a slightly weaker will, their mind would have gone blank, and they would have long been defeated by dejection and despair.
But Qin Yi was trying his best to calm his thoughts.
"In this wilderness, the fog is thick, and visibility is poor. Naturally, one's judgment would be affected. It's not impossible to say that I'm going in circles. But if I'm going in circles, why does it take half an hour each time, and why is it so accurate? Why don't I get lost every time, and always arrive at these ruins? Moreover, I've always been walking in a straight line. There's no reason for me to go back to the original spot. "
Qin Yi suddenly had a thought, and he activated a flight talisman, intending to look down from the sky, in an attempt to find some clues.
To his disappointment, the talisman was activated, and he flew up into the sky. The dense fog made it impossible for him to see anything below.
Most importantly, the haze in the sky was like an invisible lock, causing his body to become heavier and his breathing to become more rapid. Vaguely, there was an indescribable sense of pressure.
"No, no, something's wrong with the fog in the sky." Qin Yi did not dare to force it, and hurriedly rushed down.
Landing back on the ground, although it was still covered in thick fog, the feeling of being locked by a huge lock suddenly relaxed. The feeling of suppression also disappeared instantly.
Amazing!
In such a short period of time, if Qin Yi had not descended quickly, the fog in the sky would have almost suffocated him. The strong pressure and restriction almost made him feel like his body was about to explode.
Landing on the ground, Qin Yi smiled bitterly, knowing that his idea of exploring the terrain from the sky was definitely not going to work. If this Lost Wilderness was a secret realm, it would definitely have this level of defense.
Qin Yi walked to the ruins again, and stood in front of the mottled wall for a long time. Suddenly, Qin Yi grabbed something from the void in his storage ring.
This thing looked like a pen, but it also looked like a knife, and it also looked like a tool.
In fact, it was a tool. These were the tools that Senior Xiao Anran had left behind on the third floor of the [Gloom Palace]. They were specially used to create talismans and carve runes and formations.
Qin Yi took a deep breath and began to carve seriously on the mottled wall.
Every stroke of his was carefully thought out and thought through. Every stroke was powerful, and the lines were full and deep.
He did not carve many strokes, only six or seven in total. However, these six to seven strokes had their own universe within.
After Qin Yi finished drawing, he stood still and looked at it for a moment. His sleeves gently wiped the surface a few times.
He muttered to himself, "I don't believe that I'll always be running in circles."
His voice wasn't soft at all.
After watching for a while, Qin Yi slowly left.
He continued to move forward in a straight line. Qin Yi seemed to be competing with someone. The route and the way he walked didn't change at all.
If it was someone who didn't have a strong Taoist Heart, they would probably choose to change the route or the way they walked in.
Only Qin Yi didn't seem to believe it.
Another hour passed. Everything seemed to be within Qin Yi's expectations. The ruins appeared again.
This time, Qin Yi was much calmer. It seemed that he had gotten used to this pattern and the appearance of the ruins.
"Is this the fifth time I've returned to the same place?" Qin Yi began to talk to himself again. Then, he shook his head. "I don't believe it!"
As he spoke, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
At this time, Qin Yi could still smile. If someone was following him, they would think that Qin Yi had been going around in circles continuously, and he was close to losing his mind.
In fact, Qin Yi's mood was extremely calm. He even showed a confident look on his face.
It was naturally very surprising that he could be in such a happy mood by going in circles.
Qin Yi stood in front of the broken wall. On the mottled wall, there were still the lines he left before. The same position, the same lines, the same pattern. It seemed that everything had returned to the original point.
However, after observing for a moment, Qin Yi laughed happily.
"Interesting, interesting. It seems that the so-called Lost Castle is indeed interesting. Who is it that has the patience to design so many identical ruins and create the illusion of walking in circles? Do they really think that they can fool me? "
If Qin Yi was still doubting whether he was going in circles before.
Then now, he was very sure that he was not going in circles. The ruins were indeed the same. Observing with the naked eye and divine sense, he really couldn't find anything strange.
All kinds of details were exactly the same. It was indeed easy to suspect that he was going in circles.
Even before Qin Yi left a token and appeared in the next ruin, it further confirmed that he was going in circles.
Ordinary people, if they tried this, they would definitely give up.
But Qin Yi didn't. He always felt that these ruins were a little strange, but they were not the same. Therefore, he took out the tools for engraving talismans and drew some lines on the broken wall.
Those simple lines actually contained a small magic array made of talismans. When Qin Yi was wiping with his sleeves, he secretly added some spiritual power to activate the small magic array.
That small magic array didn't have any offensive or defensive power at all. It was just a small magic array fluctuation.
And the lines drawn in the ruins in front of him looked no different from those that Qin Yi had drawn before.
Even the length, thickness, and depth of the sword were flawless.
But there was no spiritual power added by Qin Yi, and there was no spiritual power fluctuation of the magic array being activated.
Qin Yi had done some tricks here. He immediately determined that the so-called going in circles was simply created.
The token that he had thrown in the previous ruin must have been picked up by someone and placed in the same position in the next ruin.
And the lines that he had drawn were also imitated and drawn in the next ruin.
However, the unique method of activating the magic array was very difficult for outsiders to detect, let alone imitate.
All of a sudden, the flaw in this was completely seen through by Qin Yi.
He was sure that the so-called Lost Castle wasn't completely devoid of living beings, but there were indeed living beings moving about!
