Fairy, listen to my explanation.

Chapter 248: Comprehending the Formation
This ancient stele looks like it is carved from ordinary stone and there is nothing special about it.

If it appeared on the side of the road, no one would notice it.

“Try to sense it with your mental power.”

Luo Lizhu's voice was calm and patient. She was used to Qin Yu's surprise. After all, everyone who came here for the first time was confused by the appearance of the ancient monument and asked the same question.

Qin Yu nodded slightly when he heard this, then took a deep breath, slowly lowered his body, sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes and concentrated, and then his mental power spread out.

He didn't dare to be careless, so he only used a small amount of mental power and approached the stone tablet carefully to test it out first.

Like a wisp of smoke in the morning light, soft yet powerful, slowly approaching.

However, Luo Lizhu on the side was stunned.

"Is this... the intermediate level?"

There was a look of surprise in her eyes.

You know, two years ago, when she went to Qingshan Gate, Qin Yu had just broken through to the realm of subtlety.

At most, it hasn’t even been three years.

Even if it is an entry-level level, it is shocking to be able to improve at this speed.

What's more, it's still detailed.

Such a speed of breakthrough amazed even her, a palace envoy.

perhaps……

An unrealistic idea popped into her mind, and she became even more excited.

Qin Yu didn't know what Luo Lizhu was thinking. At this moment, he condensed his mental power into slender tentacles and gently attached them to the ancient stele.

The next moment, as if something was touched, according to his perception, the ancient monument that had been silent in the dust of time suddenly burst into dazzling golden light, like the dawn, piercing through the darkness around it.

Before Qin Yu could react, the golden lights began to snake like spirit snakes. They outlined and intertwined on the ancient stele with an indescribable rhythm, drawing in silence, and finally forming an intricate array pattern.

Looking closely, the array text on the stone tablet seems to be an obscure pattern, or a combination of pattern and ancient characters, intertwined and converging, covering almost every inch of the stone tablet's texture, making the originally dilapidated stone tablet seem to be given life, shining with dazzling golden light, golden and exuding a mysterious meaning.

Qin Yu was filled with doubts. Although the ancient stele did not pose any danger, he felt as if he was in a fog and could not comprehend the mystery contained within.

When it comes to the art of formations, he is no different from a young child who has just started learning. Faced with the formation text that looks like a heavenly book in front of him, he feels completely confused and has no idea where to start.

"How can I understand this?"

Qin Yu frowned slightly, and with an idea in his mind, he tried to use his mental power as a pen to slowly outline.

He tried his best to keep every inch of the lines and every bit of strength precise, and gradually, a formation pattern took shape under the guidance of his mental power.

With his mental power at that subtle level, the formation he drew was almost exactly the same as the one on the ancient stele and should be impeccable.

However, Qin Yu's brows became more and more furrowed.

The array patterns he drew, although similar in form, were lifeless, empty and lacking in charm, as if they were just a rigid copy of the appearance without any meaning.

Like...

Something is missing.

Obviously, form alone is of no use.

“I don’t know if the Sky Eye is useful.”

Qin Yu thought about it and used his third eye. A pair of eyes seemed to grow between his eyebrows.

Under the Sky Eye, the surrounding space was shrouded in a layer of gloom and lack of vitality, forming a sharp contrast with the bright world outside, as if they were two completely different worlds. "Cemetery?"

As soon as this word appeared in his mind, it was like a cold wind, which made Qin Yu feel a chill on his spine.

He looked around.

There are stone tablets standing in an orderly manner. They seem to be placed randomly, but in fact they imply some kind of pattern.

The array texts also appeared one by one under the Sky Eye. They were not only engraved on the surface of the stone tablet, but also deeply penetrated into the ground under the stone tablet, like ancient and mysterious veins, interweaving into a huge and complex network, forming a...

Array!
Qin Yu saw the veins clearly.

But the key is that those formation texts are too complicated. Each of the 108 ancient steles has a different formation text. They are connected to each other in an intricate way, like a ball of thread with countless knots. Qin Yu may need to sort them out bit by bit, one by one.

"How long will it take to sort this out?"

Qin Yu only felt his scalp tingling.

No wonder this ancient formation is so difficult to comprehend. Just a stone tablet would take up so much energy and time, let alone the entire ancient formation.

He did not aim too high and instead focused his attention on the stone tablet in front of him.

As his attention focused, the veins on the ancient stele seemed to be pulled by invisible threads, appearing one by one in his perceptual world, clear and vivid.

Moreover, it is different from perceiving with mental power.

Under the eyes of heaven, these lines were actually moving, as if they were being arranged in some kind of way. As these lines froze, they actually formed a mysterious... symbol.

Although Qin Yu still knew nothing about the meaning of this "talisman", he could clearly see its overall structure and context.

He felt that he should be able to draw this symbol.

To be precise, it should be copied.

Luo Lizhu had actually been observing Qin Yu and had seen his previous series of actions.

It's normal. The behavior of the surrounding monks is almost the same as Qin Yu's.

However, Qin Yu was different from them. After trying it just once, he stopped and stood there motionless.

"Could it be... that you have given up?"

Luo Lizhu was confused.

With Qin Yu's level of understanding, this shouldn't happen.

However, if one wants to comprehend the array text on the ancient stele, one needs to explore and try and error countless times, constantly trying to sort out the context.

How could Qin Yu understand the complicated context if he didn't try?
Luo Lizhu felt very puzzled.

However, Qin Yu was not the only one who came to Qingmiao Palace this time, and she gradually turned her attention to other people.

There are nearly two hundred people in the fourth hall.

According to her perception, there was one person who made the fastest progress, and that person's mental strength had reached the advanced level!
No wonder he is so clearly ahead of everyone else.

There are two others who are just slightly inferior. It seems that it is only a matter of time before they comprehend an ancient monument.

Just as Luo Lizhu was observing them, suddenly, a mysterious aura spread not far from her.

It’s Qin Yu!
In front of him, there was a rune formed by mental power... suspended.

Luo Lizhu was completely stunned.

How come you are so fat? !
Did she miss something?
