The stolen magic is a bit magical

Chapter 176 Breaking the Formation and Entering Kuncang

Lin Xiaosu strolled out of the side hall and met the little monk outside. The little monk looked up and told him: "Donor, I checked and I am twelve years, three months and seven days old."

This is a response to Lin Xiaosu's bet.

Lin Xiaosu successfully got his master to open his eyes.

He fulfilled his bet and told Lin Xiaosu his real age.

"Yeah, not bad!" Lin Xiaosu touched his bald little head: "I can touch your head without worry now."

"Donor, why is this happening?" The little monk didn't understand.

"I was a little worried that you were a hundred-year-old monk, and it would be rude for me to touch you like this, but you said yourself that you were still a child, so it's okay." Lin Xiaosu said, "Goodbye!"

"Donor, are you going home?"

"Maybe, who cares?" Lin Xiaosu strode down the mountain. The little monk watched him leave under the Bodhi tree.

The hours passed by...

In the blink of an eye, Tibet welcomed another sunset.

At Southern Xinjiang University, Professor Yin returned to the laboratory and looked at the rare flower in the special container. Even though he was nearly fifty years old, he was still as excited as a groom who had just married his wife.

Suddenly, a piece of news came and Professor Yin's face changed.

"Professor..." the graduate student next to him called out.

Professor Yin stared at him blankly, his brows furrowed.

"Professor, what happened?"

Professor Yin woke up as if from a dream, and slowly relaxed the skin on his face: "Follow the initial experimental process, and proceed!"

"Okay!" The two graduate students started the research process.

Professor Yin slowly walked out of the laboratory, crossed the campus, and came to a dormitory building.

On the rooftop is a beautiful little garden with flowers and plants.

Looks very elegant.

A man in white clothes was holding a kettle and watering the flowers in the pots. It was a beautiful picture in the sunset. The man wore glasses, was elegant and refined, about thirty years old, and had a scholarly air all over his body.

Professor Yin went upstairs, and the man in white looked at him sideways: "I just saw you come back, is there any twists and turns?"

"I got the other shore of Bodhi."

The man in white smiled softly: "The predetermined goal has been achieved perfectly, why do you look so unhappy?"

Professor Yin said: "There was a little accident."

"what?"

"There is a fellow traveler who just revealed all our plans in front of the elders. It was very clear and the elders were very angry and held me accountable."

"All the plans?" The man in white was a little surprised.

"Yes! He said that this trip into the maze of smoke is a test by Kuncang, and the other shore bodhi we got is a reward from Kuncang..."

The man in white gently tilted his glasses: "Did you tell him?"

"This is the point that the elder blamed me for! He questioned whether I should tell irrelevant outsiders about the secret of Kuncang." Professor Yin said: "However, the problem is... I didn't tell him!"

"There are only five people who know about this assessment. The three from Wuxiang Temple, and you and me."

"Yes!"

"Are you sure the three people from Wuxiang Temple didn't reveal it?"

"Absolutely sure!"

"You didn't say it, and I didn't say it either!" The man in white asked in a deep voice, "How did this person know?"

"This is why I came to you today. First, to confirm whether you have leaked any information. Second, I want you to judge what is going on?" said Professor Yin.

The man in white slowly raised his head and said, "If the five of us really haven't revealed anything, then there is only one possibility. Your companion may be very extraordinary!"

"Mind reading?"

"Mind reading is just a rumor. Although there are people in the world who claim to be proficient in mind reading, most of them are still psychologists. The ones who are truly proficient in mind reading are probably the 'Listening Clan'. However, since the closure of the 'Gate of the Underworld', the underground race has cut off contact with this generation of civilization..."

Professor Yin shook his head slightly: "He can walk freely in the sun, so he is definitely not a member of the 'Listening Clan'."

"If it wasn't for 'Di Ting' breaking the seal, we could only make a judgment in the conventional way. However, it is incredible to accurately capture the entire design behind an ordinary adventure. Even for Qianlong's top spy, it is unlikely. It is necessary to check who this person is, what kind of forces are behind him, and whether he has any intentions against Kun Cang. Otherwise, he would not know Kun Cang so well." said the man in white.

Professor Yin nodded slowly: "This is the third reason why I came to see you today. You have to go out in person to find out the background of this person and find out which force is behind him."

"where is he?"

"The elder said that after he left Wuxiang Temple, he did not set foot in Huiyan Town, but instead set foot on the Miyan Road again."

"Come back again?" The man in white asked, "Could it be that he knows the secrets outside the temple?"

"My personal guess is that he might be planning to break through the formation and enter the realm."

The man in white said, "If he can really see through the formation outside the temple with just one adventure, then I can only say that the elder is wrong."

"The elder is wrong?"

"Yes, if he can see through the formation, he will be the formation wizard that the entire Kuncang needs most! And the elders didn't choose such a person? Isn't this a huge mistake?"

Professor Yin's eyes lit up: "You mean, he really has the possibility of breaking through the formation and entering the realm?"

"Breaking the formation and entering the world, you're thinking too much! This formation, is it not an ordinary formation? It is the last stubbornness and ten thousand years of glory of the Ancient Formation Sect. Even the ancient masters can only sigh at the sight of the formation. How can a tiny ant in this world touch it?"

Professor Yin asked, “How are you going to do this?”

"I'll wait for him in Huiyan Town!" The man in white smiled slightly, "I want to see who this person is who caused the elders to question you and made you so anxious with just a few words."

Just as these two said.

Lin Xiaosu did not return to Huiyan Town.

He returned to the Misty Road, and in just one day and one night, he had covered the same distance that they had covered in two days and two nights a few days before, and returned to the location of the temple. Before the adventure, he tried his best to make himself ordinary.

The fundamental purpose is not to be too conspicuous.

He had a hunch that Kun Cang would stare at this group of people. He didn't want to be too special and get too much attention. He wanted to observe others while they were observing him.

This is standard enemy thinking.

He was very successful, or too successful.

His performance was mediocre and indeed avoided the other party's attention, but the result was that the other three people in his group were selected by Kun Cang and entered Kun Cang, while he was not selected because his performance was not outstanding.

This is a bit embarrassing.

This is also counterproductive.

The reason why things went against my wishes was still an unexpected one...

At the beginning, he didn't think that this was an assessment.

Only after the incident was over, he was able to make sense of it all through the images of the three companions’ entry into the journey, combined with all the inappropriate things during the journey, the calmness with which Professor Yin left, and the various clues about the Bodhi flower on the other shore.

Professor Yin and the man in white analyzed a lot of things but couldn't figure out where the problem lay.

In fact, the problem lies in Lin Xiaosu’s special abilities.

He is the toughest detective.

He has a kind heart.

He has time travel.

He can tell the coming of autumn by looking at a single leaf. He also has strong logical reasoning skills and the ability to "propose hypotheses and verify them."

In addition to connecting the cases, he set a small trap. Even an old monk who had experienced and seen through the world could not escape his verbal trap.

All the speculations were confirmed by the old monk.

He can then just go for it.

Kuncang, you denied him legitimate entry. Do you think I can only sigh at Kunlun?
Yes, I can't open the front door that you don't want to open.

But you shouldn't show your backdoor to me...

Night has fallen.

The mountain wind howled in the ruins of the temple.

There were no people or animals around.

Only the twin bridges of ice and fire were flashing a hazy light in the night.

Ordinary people cannot see that light because it is a formation pattern.

Behind the temple is a vast expanse. To the naked eye, it looks like an ordinary mountain. However, under Lin Xiaosu's wise eyes, he can see array patterns everywhere, and there is a different world inside.

With a whoosh, he jumped off the cliff.

Along the way, it seemed that people were really tired of living, because this cliff was incredibly high, hundreds of meters away. Even if the genetic man jumped down, he would die.

However, Lin Xiaosu only fell seven or eight meters before disappearing out of thin air.

Yes, if someone stood at the ruins of the temple and looked at it with ordinary vision, he would disappear into thin air.

But the real him broke through the maze of the formation and landed on a stone bridge.

He entered this quagmire of formation.

Below me is bottomless void.

In front of me is a lonely stone bridge.

No, it's half a broken bridge.

There are array patterns all over the stone bridge, and there are also array patterns in the void!
Just hovering in the air strangely like that.

Lin Xiaosu raised his hand gently, there was a branch in his palm, and he carefully moved the branch closer to the formation pattern in the air.

With a slight "chi" sound, the upper half of the branch disappeared out of thin air, and even the leaves could not be seen.

Lin Xiaosu broke out in a cold sweat on his back.

If he couldn't see the array pattern, if he had crossed the bridge at a normal pace, he would have lost his head by now.

This is the weirdness of the array pattern killing people.

So, is there a limit to its destructive power?

He tried again, this time holding a dagger in his hand, which was the dagger he seized when fighting with Hydra. This dagger was made of a special alloy. Although it could not be said to be able to cut through iron like mud, it was stronger than ordinary steel.

However, as soon as the dagger touched the array pattern, the front half was gone. The most terrifying thing was that Lin Xiaosu clearly did not feel any vibration in his hand.

The destructive power of the array completely overturns the common sense of physics.

Lin Xiaosu stood there for a while and closed his eyes.

Then, he opened his eyes, focused his attention with the wisdom of heaven, and walked across the half stone bridge step by step.

There were array patterns on the stone bridge, and he stepped across it as cautiously as if he were walking on a landmine.

He carefully avoided the array patterns in the void.

It took him half an hour to walk across the short stone bridge.

Because he couldn't tell whether these array patterns would suddenly change.

Fortunately, the formation pattern did not change and remained fixed in the same place. When he reached the bridge, he became much braver. Knowing that the formation pattern would not change, he could speed up his pace. Although the sky was full of strange formation patterns and their positions were completely irregular, he could see them and just avoided them.

At this moment, a stone tablet erected beside the bridge caught his attention.

This stone tablet is very old, mottled, and covered with array patterns. Lin Xiaosu stared at it tightly. The tablet was engraved with the same words as those on the stone pillars of the temple.
