This is a corpse puppet. Aren’t you afraid that it will suddenly attack and hurt people?

Oh, there is a talisman on the corpse puppet’s forehead, so it’s okay.

"I can pay off my gambling debts in two more months. I'll be able to go back and see my wife soon." A thin miner leaned against the wall and said lazily.

"Your wife? Are you sure she will still be your wife after you go back?" a tall miner teased.

The thin miner was a little annoyed when he heard this and said, "You're asking for a fight. Why do you talk like a jerk?"

But the tall miner shook his head and said, "Do you think you can go back after becoming a miner? You're new here, so you don't know the rules. If you want to leave, you have to work here for at least six months."

"Did you sign and seal a piece of paper before you came?"

The tall miner came earlier and is already a veteran.

The thin miner said nervously, "I did sign it. But I can't read. I don't know what it says."

Hearing this, the tall miner looked at him like he was a fool and said, "You've signed the contract, so you can't leave until you've completed six months of work. Otherwise, you won't get a single spirit stone."

"My situation is similar to yours. Although I didn't work in the workshop for a long month, it was stable. I shouldn't have gone to that cannibalistic gambling house." The tall miner looked regretful.

The thin miner felt hopeless after hearing this.

Half a year was too long for him.

His wife is an ordinary woman, how can she protect herself outside?

There are so many men like jackals, tigers and leopards in this mountain village, who doesn't want to eat some meat?

Maybe he has green hair now.

Zhao Kangping, who was hiding in the dark, used a photo stone to record their conversation and also took pictures of the surrounding scenes.

At this moment, he felt a divine sense sweeping over him.

Then a beam of light similar to a searchlight shone over.

Oh no, it seems to be an anti-stealth magic weapon.

He guessed that in order to use the photo stone, he had opened his cloak a little, and a little bit of breath leaked out.

It was this tiny bit of breath that exposed his whereabouts.

Under the "searchlight", the transparent outline of his body was revealed.

"Who is it?" Three Nascent Soul consciousnesses in the underground mine swept over him at the same time.

Immediately afterwards, teams of fully armed combat monks gathered towards his position.

Chapter 186: Nightmare Bewilderment Array and Thunder Punishment Array

"Don't let him get away."

A large group of cultivators were either flying on swords or riding on light to chase Zhao Kangping.

After being illuminated by the "searchlight", the invisibility talisman on his body became ineffective.

Not only were there many Foundation Establishment cultivators chasing after him, but what really gave him a headache were the three Nascent Soul cultivators.

"Why are there only two Nascent Souls chasing after me?" He did not sense the breath of the third Nascent Soul.

There is only one possibility for this situation.

He withdrew his attention from behind him and extended his spiritual consciousness forward.

Sure enough, he found the third Nascent Soul more than twenty feet above and to the right. They wanted to surround him from the front and back.

Fortunately, the terrain here is complex, the roads are rugged, and the tunnels are winding.

The third Yuanying should have drilled into the rock layer through the earth-walking technique. Judging from the speed at which he moves, he should be able to catch up with him soon.

There was an intrusion in the mine tunnel, and someone had already sounded the alarm, and all the miners on the road ran away.

"Where to run!"

A Nascent Soul in the air offered up an emerald green gem. This was one of his magical instruments, used to promote plant growth and provide excellent control during battles.

A large area of ​​land below Zhao Kangping, who was flying low, was covered in weeds. These weeds grew rapidly, transforming into creeping vines.

If you don't look carefully, you might think it's a green tentacle.

Baa.

I'm not a magical girl, what do you want with tentacles?

Tentacles, ugh, vines swung onto him, tightly wrapping around his limbs.

But he is a cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage after all, and these vines cannot bind him for too long.

In less than three seconds, he broke free from the vines that were wrapped around his body.

But in less than three seconds, the three Nascent Souls had surrounded him.

Even so, Zhao Kangping was not panicked at all.

Even though there were two late Nascent Soul cultivators and one middle Nascent Soul cultivator on the opposite side, and they worked together, Zhao Kangping was definitely no match for them.

However, Zhao Kangping had just come here alone and had his own trump card.

"Who are you?" asked a Yuanying from the Qiu family elder. He was already gray-haired and had no hope of promotion. He volunteered to come here to guard.

Since Zhao Kangping basically had no contact with people from these big families, none of them had ever seen him.

But he is a Nascent Soul cultivator, which has to attract the other party's attention.

If he has someone to rely on, killing him rashly may cause a bad chain reaction.

Just when they were in a brief hesitation, Zhao Kangping waved his hand and an octagonal formation plate appeared in his hand.

Some time ago, he found a book on formations left by Fang Quan in the Trial Secret Realm. He thought one of the formations in it, called the Nightmare Bewilderment Formation, was very interesting.

Later, he secretly tried to incorporate this formation into the formation plate.

He prepared three sets of materials. The first set was for an experiment, but when he was carving the array pattern, he misremembered the rune somewhere in the compound array. He wrote one rune instead of another similar rune, which resulted in the material being scrapped.

After he repeatedly studied the book, he finally discovered where he had made a mistake from the analytical diagram.

It’s all because of the cursive writing above. The runes were written in one go, so it’s normal to make mistakes.

On his second attempt, he didn't make the same mistake as before. He successfully set up the formation, but something went wrong when retracting the formation from the ground into the formation disk.

The most common base for the array plate is an octagonal brass plate that has been refined. Although the power of the array made in this way will be reduced and the array can only be activated once, it is cheap.

He found that the brass plate could not withstand the nightmare maze, and an explosion occurred when the formation was shrinking into the plate. Not only were the formation materials lost, but the brass plate was also lost, and he himself was almost lost.

But fortunately, he activated the life-saving magic weapon on his body.

Later, he studied various base materials with better textures before determining that a material made of ghost locust wood was most compatible with the Nightmare Maze.

But the problem is that this material comes from the Western Regions where the demonic cultivators are entrenched.

It is extremely difficult for them in the Eastern Region to obtain the ghost locust tree.

Fortunately, he found a piece at the resource exchange office of the holy land. It seemed that the source was the spoils captured by the disciples of the holy land when they killed demon cultivators outside. Because they had no use for it, they handed it over to the holy land.

After much preparation, he finally completed the last set of materials.

When he held the black wooden formation plate in his hand, he felt a cool touch.

The formation plate can also be considered a special kind of magical tool that can be carried with you and used to set up formations.

However, depending on the grade of the formation and the grade of the base material of the formation plate, different formation plates can be activated at different times.

Some array plates are disposable, while others can be used repeatedly.

The piece in his hand can be used repeatedly, but it needs to be recharged after one use, and the way to recharge it is to replenish its Yin energy.

Zhao Kangping currently has no means to replenish his Yin energy, so this thing is equivalent to a disposable one.

He activated the formation plate instantly, and the light of the formation flashed and unfolded at the place under his feet, and the surrounding environment seemed to be shrouded in fog.

All those who ran towards him were caught off guard and were enveloped by the psychedelic mist, falling into a nightmare maze and lying on the ground.

Since his cultivation level is at the late Nascent Soul stage, his formation can only capture cultivators at the late Nascent Soul stage at best.

It’s just that the higher the opponent’s realm, the shorter the duration.

Of course, this is not necessarily the case. If the person trapped in the formation has any inner demons, he may become deeply trapped and unable to get out.

As the person who set up the formation, he himself would not fall into the nightmare. However, if he wanted to continue to use the formation to control these people, he had to continue to manipulate the formation disk.

There was no way. His current attainments in formations were not enough to control the Nightmare Formation from a distance, or to make it operate on its own.

The Nightmare Soul-Magister Formation was a fifth-tier formation, and only a Divine Transformation cultivator could perfectly control it. However, he was only at the Nascent Soul stage.

An average Nascent Soul cultivator might have difficulty even mastering the initial stages, but he had previously reached the Spiritualization Stage. His attainments in formations had reached the fifth level, matching that of a Spiritualization Stage. However, his Nascent Soul stage cultivation ultimately held him back, preventing him from fully mastering the formation.

He held the array disc, which was also the core of the array. As long as the array disc was in his hand, he could freely view the dreams of those trapped in it.

He observed that the three Nascent Soul cultivators had painful expressions on their faces, as if they were trapped in a nightmare.

Could it be that they have all done something wrong?

Let me tell you what you are dreaming about?

The old man with gray hair in the Nascent Soul stage was named Qiu Ligao.

More than seven hundred years ago, he was a talented young prodigy of the Qiu family, and had made a great name for himself.

In his generation, only he and his younger brother were left in his lineage.

Unlike those big families where brothers fight for power and profit and tear each other apart, they are brothers who are friendly and respectful to each other.

When they were young, the two brothers had a very close relationship and they depended on each other from childhood. The elder brother always gave the good things to the younger brother, and the younger brother always comforted the elder brother when he was treated unfairly by the family.

The younger brother's name was Qiu Litang. His cultivation aptitude was slightly inferior to his older brother's, but still passable. However, the family's resources allocated to their lineage were limited, so he divided his own resources among his older brother.

Later, Qiu Ligao became famous in a family competition, and the lives of the two brothers became better.

As Qiu Ligao gradually emerged, his status in the family also rose.

Then the family arranged a marriage for him with a young lady from the Yang family.

The family attached great importance to this marriage, and in order to ensure a harmonious relationship between the young people, they arranged for the two to meet in advance.

But this meeting changed Qiu Ligao's life.

Although Qiu Ligao has a high aptitude for cultivation, he is really not good at getting along with girls.

To give him courage, he brought his younger brother with him.

The young lady of the Yang family also came with a maid.

Several young people met in a teahouse.

When Qiu Ligao saw the young lady from the Yang family, he was shocked by her beauty and was so excited that he forgot all the rehearsals before coming.

I was speechless for a moment.

At the critical moment, it was Qiu Litang who smoothed things over and rescued his brother.

However, during the blind date, Qiu Ligao hardly said a word, and it was basically his younger brother Qiu Litang who asked and answered questions with Miss Yang.

At the time, Qiu Ligao's cultivation was profound, making him a leader among his peers. However, he had invested almost all of his skill points in cultivation-related areas, leaving his social skills and conversational eloquence lacking.

At the tea table, Miss Yang's eyes were more focused on the elegant and easy-going Qiu Litang.

The two of them were so happy chatting that they almost forgot that their brother was one of the protagonists of the blind date.

Unfortunately, the dull Qiu Ligao himself didn't care about it, and even thought that this blind date was a success.

The marriage was arranged by the elders, so the younger generation didn't have much choice. After all, it was a family marriage.

Three months later, the two got married, and almost all the guests sent their blessings to the newlyweds.

However, on the wedding day, someone sadly left the banquet at its most lively moment. This person was none other than the groom's younger brother, Qiu Litang.

Qiu Litang did not go anywhere else, but ran to his brother and sister-in-law's wedding room.

He stood outside the bridal chamber for a moment, then mustered up the courage to push the door open.

"Who is it?" the woman, her face covered by the red veil, asked softly. This was not the right time; the groom shouldn't be here so soon.

Qiu Litang: "It's me."
