Please bring your best friends to practice immortality

Chapter 853 Array

Everyone thought about it and felt that it was indeed the case. Cai Heming thought for a while and said,

"This is a reminder for us. There are already tens of thousands of half-snake people here. There is no guarantee that there will be similar magic arrays and artifacts on the road ahead... Please be careful!"

Everyone already knew that this trip would not be easy, and now they had suffered a loss, so they all nodded and discussed it among themselves. Those who had defensive magic weapons opened their magic weapons, and those who had sects forming formations formed formations. This could be considered as the Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea, each showing their magical powers!

Gu Shiyi, Pu Yanlan, Yan Rufeng and the others did not form a formation. After taking off, they still followed the others silently. Gu Shiyi glanced at the little turtle lying in his palm.

"Where were you just now?"

When she fell into the jungle, the old horse quickly climbed down from her palm and disappeared for a while. The old horse smiled and said,
"I followed and took a look. Those half-snake people were commanded by a human. That human was holding a compass. I think that was probably what triggered the magic circle..."

"Hey... did you see the person behind the scenes?"

Gu Shiyi was a little surprised.

"Why didn't you catch up?"

Old Ma smacked his lips and said,
"That human was very clever. He must have discovered that I was spying in secret. He ran away before his men came back!"

Hearing this, Gu Shiyi and Pu Yanlan looked at each other.

"It seems that this trip may not be so easy..."

Gu Shi just smiled,
"If an enemy comes, we will fight him..."

She looked eager to try.

"I want to see what these half-snake people are up to..."

The teams of these monks were marching in a mighty procession, flashing different lights, towards the towering mountains in the center of this world. At this time, in the dense forest, someone was watching the monks disappearing into the sky from afar, and said solemnly,
"Ah, Lord Sheng, these people should be heading for the secret treasure of the Holy Mountain. Should we open the protective magic circle?"

The bald old man at the side looked solemn and shook his head slowly.
"Wait a minute, these are all cultivators. If we let them gather together, tens of thousands of us will not be able to defeat them. We have to think of a way..."

After thinking for a while, he said,
"Give orders to the four brothers of the Mang family to lead four teams each and activate the defense formation to separate them..."

After a pause, he said again,
"I will go to the Holy Mountain myself..."

Having said this, he turned around and whistled. A tall half-snake man rushed over. The old man flipped over and rode on the half-snake man's back.
"go!"

The half-snake man carried the old man on his back, twisting his snake body and flying across the ground as fast as lightning. The team of more than a hundred people behind him also rode on the half-snake man and followed him away...

The cultivators in the sky kept going forward. They flew over an endless forest and saw countless overlapping mountaintops in front of them. It was unknown how many there were from afar. Cai Heming raised his hand to signal everyone to stop and look into the distance. He turned back and waved Pu Yanlan over.
"Elder Pu, do you see something fishy going on here?"

Pu Yanlan stared at it for a while.
"These mountains should be a huge magic circle..."

Cai Heming nodded with his hands behind his back, then turned to ask the elders and heads of other sects,

"I wonder if you can tell what kind of magic array this is?"

Some people looked far away,
"This formation is similar to the formation of the 108 Heavenly Gangs. It should be the Heavenly Gangs and Earthly Gangs formation used by the ancient immortal sect to protect treasures. If we enter it and the formation is activated, I'm afraid we will be trapped in it..."

Someone nodded in response.

"One hundred and eight formations refer to one hundred and eight mountain peaks. The map above was so crudely drawn that I couldn't see it. Only an ancient immortal sect could arrange such a large-scale formation..."

Cai Heming nodded and said,

"That's right. It seems that in order to get the treasure, we still need to enter this formation..."

Pu Yanlan nodded,
"This Tian Gang 108 Evil Formation has infinite variations, and it is set up using 100 mountains. Let alone just a few of us, even if a huge army entered, I'm afraid we would be deeply trapped..."

She turned to look at Cai Heming.

"Elder Cai, in my opinion, I'm afraid that your ancestor may not have listened to all the instructions..."

"This one……"

Cai Heming thought for a moment and said,
"At that time, the ancient immortal sect was completely destroyed by the demons, and the elder was on his deathbed. The founder was just a servant of the outer sect at that time. I am afraid that even if I said some words, the founder might not be able to remember them..." He paused and asked Pu Yanlan,
"What did Elder Pu think of?"

Pu Yanlan smiled slightly and said,

"I just thought that this Tiangang Disha formation is very powerful. Even if your ancestor has cultivated to the Nascent Soul stage, it would be wishful thinking for him to enter it and take the treasure by himself. The elder only gave the ancestor a magic sword. If the magic sword does not have the key to enter the formation, is it really necessary for a Nascent Soul cultivator to force his way in... So, could the magic sword be the key?"

This immediately reminded everyone, and Cai Heming was also enlightened when he heard it.

"Yes, yes, Elder Pu is indeed amazing! Why didn't I think of this?"

He immediately summoned the magic sword on his back.
"Om..."

The spirit sword vibrated and suddenly turned on the spot. After a while, a white light flashed and the spirit sword flew forward. It seemed to be pointing the way. Seeing this, Cai Heming hurriedly called out,
"let's go!"

So he chased after it first, and everyone followed him when they saw him. Pu Yanlan was silent for a moment, and waited until Gu Shiyi, Yan Rufeng and others came over before chasing after them. The spirit sword rushed into the mountains without looking back, and several rays of light flashed behind it. In the mountains, in a dense forest, someone shouted softly,
"coming!"

Immediately, three teams of people rushed in three directions, but there was still one team that stayed where they were. The leader was holding a compass in his hand. Seeing the large group of colorful light passing over his head, he suddenly sneered and stretched out his hand to flick the compass. He saw the white light that had already flown far away, turned sharply in the air, and rushed in another direction. The huge group of light behind it also followed. Then, the white light led the group of light to the other side. After several times, Cai Heming finally found something wrong.
"How is this going?"

With a slight thought in his heart, he called back the flying sword and said to everyone,
"I have some understanding of the Tiangang Disha formation. The direction of the flying spirit sword in front is correct, but why did it suddenly turn to the Sigongsha over there... This is not right!"

Everyone stopped, Pu Yanlan frowned, and Gu Shiyi looked at the old horse in his palm.

"Do you smell anything?"

The old horse nodded, stretched out his stubby paw and pointed downwards.
"The aura of these people is hidden in the jungle below, blending in with the beasts in the forest. Your human consciousness cannot easily detect them..."

These half-human, half-snake people are beasts in the eyes of humans. It is not easy to distinguish them with human consciousness alone. To distinguish them, you have to rely on your sensitive sense of smell. Gu Shiyi nodded to Yan Rufeng beside him, and his body flashed and turned into a black smoke and disappeared...

The people who were lying in ambush below were staring at the several groups of light escaping in the sky.

"Why don't they leave?"

"Humph! This magic circle has been modified by our ancestors. They still want to use the magic sword to search for treasures. They are just courting death!"

After saying that, the compass in his hand turned again, and at this time the long sword in Cai Heming's hand rang again.
"Om..."

Seeing the sword trembling, it seemed as if it was trying to break free from Cai Heming's hand. Cai Heming was startled when he saw this.
"How is this going?"

Seeing this, everyone was talking about it.

"How is this going?"

Cai Heming did not dare to let the spirit sword leave, so he had to put it back into the scabbard. Without the guidance of the spirit sword, he immediately lost his direction. Now that they had entered the magic circle, everyone did not dare to act rashly. They all looked at the leaders Cai Heming and Pu Yanlan. The two discussed quietly.
"According to Elder Pu's opinion, what should we do next?"

Pu Yanlan frowned.
"The Heavenly Gang and Earthly Evil Formation has infinite variations. If you make a mistake, you will be trapped in it and unable to extricate yourself. To be honest with you, Elder Cai, I also learned some formations when I was in the sect. Elder Cai... why don't we pool our wisdom and break the formation ourselves?"

Since the magic sword is unreliable, you can only rely on yourself!
Cai Heming thought for a while and nodded.
"It seems that this spirit sword was originally supposed to be a guide after entering the formation, but time has changed... I'm afraid the formation has changed, and the spirit sword can no longer provide guidance after entering the formation..."

So the two of them discussed with everyone else and decided to try to break the magic circle themselves. At this time, Gu Shiyi had turned into a black shadow and stood in the dense forest. She looked at the compass in the hand of the particularly tall man in front of her.

"We have to find a way to get that thing here..."

The old horse in his hands stretched its neck and sniffed.
"The smell of these people is even stronger than the stench of the half-snake people. It's really strange..."

Don't they look exactly like humans?

But there was no demonic energy flowing from them, and it didn't look like the demons had transformed into human form...

Old Ma was very confused, but Gu Shiyi didn't have so many concerns.

"I don't know why, so I'll just catch one and ask... and get the compass along with it..."

The half-snake man captured earlier can't even speak human language. It would be better to capture the one holding the compass. Judging from his appearance, he should be the leader of this gang.

Gu Shiyi thought about it, but quietly retreated. She flipped her hand and took out the token for entering and exiting the secret realm. She wanted to call out the fox that stayed in the secret realm, and also wanted to use that trick to deceive those half-snake people, intending to sneak in quietly. However, even though the token was out, no matter how Gu Shiyi urged it, the token did not move at all.
"Eh...what's going on?"
