"Uncle Master..." When Qi Kuo rushed to the center of the formation, Fan Chen was already repairing the formation. The broken traces around him finally stopped spreading and were recovering bit by bit.
He looked up at the magic circle being repaired in the air, gritted his teeth, and it happened again! The phenomenon and method of this fragmentation were exactly the same as the crisis a few years ago. This was obviously not from the impact within the seal, but from the outside.
Someone is deliberately destroying the magic circle!
Uncle Master tried his best to suppress the riot last time, what will happen next time?
He became even more nervous, but his understanding of the formation couldn't help him, so he could only protect the formation from the side, fearing that the formation would riot even more.
Compared to Qi Kuo's worries, Fan Chen, who was repairing the magic circle, was much more relaxed. Although this riot looked very powerful, it was only the outer magic circle that was actually broken, and it did not extend to the inner layer.
In addition, after being repaired by Ah Ran, she has taught him all the methods of setting up this formation, so apart from consuming some spiritual energy and being tired, there is no difficulty.
He carefully adjusted his spiritual power and repaired the gaps in the formation one by one. The speed could not be said to be slow, but the progress was indeed not very fast, until a familiar spiritual power suddenly came over, and in the formation
Wandering, as if guiding, pulling his spiritual energy towards various directions in the formation.
Fan Chen was stunned for a moment, recognizing the owner of the spiritual power, and then quickly recovered his mind. As the spiritual power accelerated to repair the formation, it became much faster in an instant, and a more dazzling golden light lit up in the formation.
The cracks quickly disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye. In less than half an hour, the cracks had been repaired. The magic circle that originally shrouded the Zhentian Pavilion slowly disappeared, and the entire floating island returned to calm.
"Is this... ready?!" Qi Kuo looked surprised and looked at Fan Chen in disbelief. Didn't it take seven days to suppress the riot last time? Not only that, every once in a while
Time will riot again, how come it happens so fast this time? Did he guess wrong, this riot is different from the last time?
"The inner array is complete." Fan Chen took back his spiritual power and explained softly, "So this riot did not affect the center of the array."
"That is to say, it's actually the same as last time?" Qi Kuo's face darkened again, "Huh, last time the clue was broken in the north, and he happened to be here this time, uncle, do you think..."
He did not continue speaking, but there was already murderous intent in his eyes.
"Maybe." Fan Chen didn't confirm or deny it. After all, it was such a coincidence. The Zhentian Pavilion had two inexplicable riots in the formation twice in a row, and it almost collapsed. They were all related to Beiyun. It was hard not to make them suspicious.
It's just that Fan Chen's mind is not on the formation at all right now, and he has no intention of thinking about it in detail.
All he could think about now was the scene where he had just made a move at Tianji Terrace and was caught by Ah Ran. There was another side that he desperately wanted to hide, and he wanted to remain the same as before in front of her, but he was caught off guard.
Under such circumstances, he was caught and revealed.
In the thousand years since she left, many things have changed, including him! He is no longer the modest and gentle person in her eyes. His heart has long since become hard and cold. Except for her, the life and death of everyone else does not depend on him.
Consider the scope, and even...
What would Ah Ran think? Will he hate him now? Will he be disgusted by his cruelty and ruthlessness? Will he... be disappointed in him?
The hand on Fan Chen's side tightened and loosened, loosened and tightened again and again, just like his current mood. The more he thought about it, the more flustered he became, and the more he thought about it, the less he dared to face her. He had the urge to escape, but he couldn't.
Not even half a step.
"Whether it is true or not, we must find out the result this time. I will watch them, and no one can leave!" Qi Kuo thought that he was worried about the formation, so he left an angry sentence, turned around and walked towards the main hall.
Go in the direction.
Fan Chen was left alone to ponder over and over again. His rationality told him to hurry over and explain, but his selfishness urged him to slow down. Maybe Ah Ran just arrived and didn't see it?
So he was trapped in place and allowed to be swallowed up by boundless panic, until a spiritual butterfly flew in front of him and circled him three times repeatedly, as if urging him.
He calmed down, turned around and left the formation, and the next moment he appeared in the bamboo forest. A familiar figure was sitting on a stone chair, touching the formation on the table and warming tea seriously.
With just one glance, all his hesitation disappeared in an instant. Nothing in this world could stop the steps approaching him.
"Here we come." Jiang Ran glanced at him and handed the poured tea over to him out of habit, "Sit down."
Fan Chen sat down with an uneasy heart. Seeing that she didn't ask any questions, he slowly took the cup of tea. His thoughts began to get confused. He hesitated for a while on how to answer so that she would not be so disgusted.
"You should be aware of the situation of the formation, right?" Jiang Ran was surprised and did not ask what he was worried about at all, but directly turned to the formation.
"Ah?!" He was stunned for a moment, and his mind even went blank for a moment, "Wha...what?"
"I just sensed it." Jiang Ran frowned and continued with a serious face, "It stands to reason that the formation has been repaired. Unless something happens to the core of the formation, this shouldn't happen."
Only then did Fan Chen react, and forcefully pulled himself back to his senses, saying, "That's true, but a sudden riot in the formation like today happened once a hundred years ago."
"Huh?" Jiang Ran was stunned. This was actually not the first time.
"The magic circle on the lower level was not complete that time, so it was even more serious." This was one of the reasons why he had to guard the lower level before and could not leave easily. "And the riot that time did not come from the Demon Abyss.
, but external.”
"External!" Jiang Ran was startled and his face darkened, "You mean someone wants to destroy this magic circle!"
Fan Chen nodded.
"But who would do this?" She couldn't figure it out. Everyone in the six realms knew that Zhentian Pavilion's seal sealed the Demonic Abyss. Once the seal was broken, the devil would return. Destroying this seal would do no good to anyone.
Who will do it?
"I can't guess." Fan Chen also frowned and said, "When the incident happened suddenly, I searched the entire Zhentian Pavilion and only found the ashes of some burned ancient talismans. The aura of the talisman was strange and I couldn't detect the specific...
Purpose. Over the years, Qi Kuo has been searching everywhere with the remaining aura on it but has not been able to find out the origin of the talisman? More importantly, every time he has a clue, the clue will be interrupted directly. Now he can only be sure, that
The direction where the breath finally disappears is the north."
