When Venerable Chongxiao heard this, he was startled and asked: "Sect Master, why do you suddenly ask about this matter? Where did you hear the name of this formation?"
"So, does this formation exist?" Jiang Chen frowned slightly. Jiang Chen had already heard Mang Qi talk about this formation when he was training in the Endless Cave of the Eastern Kingdom. Later he went to the Wild Demon
I went to the place where the clan sealed the place, and went to the Endless Cave again, and checked with Mang Qi again.
At that time, Mang Qi gave him some explanations, but Jiang Chen wanted to confirm from Master Chongxiao whether there was any truth to Mang Qi's original words.
"This formation..." Venerable Chongxiao sighed, and his tone suddenly became extremely complicated, "Sect Master, if you want to talk about this formation, it's really a long story.
No matter how long the story is, Jiang Chen also wants to know about it.
"Sir, this formation has some connection with me, can you tell me?"
"Since the sect leader asked, my subordinates naturally told me everything they knew." Venerable Chongxiao had no intention of hiding it from Jiang Chen and sighed, "In fact, our Danxiao Ancient Sect also participated in this formation. We participated in the layout at that time.
There are eight sects in this formation, all of which were relatively top formation sects at that time. We, the Danxiao Ancient Sect, are also considered the best among them. We have been responsible for at least two of the Heavenly Souls Locking God Formation.
Thirty percent."
Jiang Chen was not surprised that the Danxiao Ancient Sect participated in this formation.
Since it was a formation arranged by an ancient sect, it is natural that the Danxiao Ancient Sect, as a powerful sect in ancient times, participated in the arrangement of this formation.
"This formation is not only organized by our formation sects, but all the major sects in ancient times have provided resources, including the spiritual stones, tools, and resources needed to set up the formation. Then
At that time, everyone was almost united, and even planned to pin all the great achievements of suppressing demons on this formation."
"oh?"
Jiang Chen frowned, he didn't expect this formation to have such a history?
"This is by no means an exaggeration. At that time, the human race was quite powerful in the Divine Abyss Continent and had abundant resources. Otherwise, the demon clan would not have chosen our human race's territory as the main battlefield for the demon clan's invasion. Exactly.
Because the territory of our human race is the main battlefield, we, the human race, paid a lot in the battle to seal the demons in ancient times. Including this formation... just the formation masters, there were at least dozens of people working on refining this formation.
The lights will wither and die..."
"So exaggerated?" Jiang Chen was completely stunned. He never imagined that a formation would pay such a high price?
"It's not an exaggeration at all." Venerable Chongxiao's tone was very solemn, "This Great Formation of All Heavens and All Souls Locking Gods is the most powerful and highest-level formation in the inheritance of the human race in Shenyuan Continent. This formation
No sect can independently complete the formation. No sect can independently support the resources required for this formation. If it takes ten or eight years to do it, there is no need to risk our lives. However, the time given to us at that time,
There are only three months. Within three months, this formation must be completed."
In the war against demons, time is tight, and it is indeed impossible to wait ten or eight years. Time is life. Every day is extremely precious, and wasting one day may completely change the situation of the war.
For a moment, Jiang Chen finally understood why so many formation masters had died.
The ten-year formation took three months to complete. This level of urgency is indeed shocking. This is indeed setting up the formation by burning life.
For a moment, Jiang Chen was also filled with sighs.
"A total of nine elders of our Danxiao Ancient Sect sacrificed their lives while setting up this formation. One of them is my younger brother born from the same mother." Venerable Chongxiao spoke in a low voice.
"Not only our Danxiao Ancient Sect, Ksitigarbha Sect, which was known as the number one sect in formation at that time, also had more than a dozen people die. There were also many other sects..."
When Master Chongxiao said this, his tone was also extremely low: "It's a pity...it's a pity...we still underestimated the cunning of the demons."
"The formation we worked so hard to prepare for a decisive battle with the demons was discovered by the demons. The demon army did not engage in the main battle as we expected. Instead, they sent a group of puppets to the front.
Come to fight. These puppets are slaves enslaved by the demons from other planes. They themselves were coerced by the demons and have no desire to fight. They were purely sent by the demons to die and to inspire our formation.
A bunch of scapegoats for the law”
Venerable Chongxiao gritted his teeth and said that he almost wanted to eat the flesh and blood of the demons alive.
This statement is almost consistent with what Mang Qi said.
"It seems that Mang Qi did not lie on this issue." Jiang Chen also sighed in his heart.
"Sect Master, this formation has always been a scar in the hearts of our ancient human race. This formation cost us countless efforts and paid countless costs, but it did not trap even a single demon. We can't forgive those comrades who sacrificed for the formation.
...If we had successfully trapped the main force of the demons in that battle, there would not have been so many tragic battles against the demons, and the sacrifices of our human race would not have been so great. It is precisely because this formation was not completed.
Its due mission led to the subsequent anti-demon war, in which almost ten or eight of the powerful human beings died, and all the major forces used up almost all their manpower and property."
The God-locking Formation of All Heavens and All Souls was originally prepared for the demons, but was replaced by a dead ghost sent by the demons.
If the Great Formation of All Heavens and All Souls Locking Gods could trap the main force of the demon clan, perhaps there would not be so many tragic wars in the future, and the fate of the human race would not have plummeted to the point where it is now.
It has to be said that fate plays tricks on people.
"Your Majesty, since the All Souls Locking Formation has sealed the wrong person, can it be reactivated? Can those scapegoats be released for my own use?" Jiang Chen asked tentatively.
"This issue was also mentioned at the time. However, the war against demons was in full swing at that time, and there were simply not enough manpower and resources to restart the All Heavens and All Souls Locking God Formation. Another thing, at that time, no one was sure.
Once those puppets are released, they will happily cooperate with us humans and fight against the demons. After all, they are controlled by the demons."
The concerns mentioned by Master Chongxiao are not unreasonable.
Jiang Chen nodded, but said: "The conditions were not mature at that time. I don't know if the formation is still there, is there any hope of restarting it now?"
Although Jiang Chen can be regarded as a scholar in the field of formations, he has never heard of this formation in his previous life and has no specific concept of this formation.
So he still wanted to get more information from Lord Chongxiao.
"From ancient times to the present, more than ten or two hundred thousand years have passed, and my subordinates cannot judge what the situation of this great formation of all gods and spirits is. However, with the meager resources in human territory, it is almost impossible to restart this formation.
Possibly. In terms of material resources, we may be able to barely meet the conditions. But in terms of manpower, if you think about so many heavenly powerhouses operating this formation together in ancient times, dozens of them would have died. Now... not even one heavenly powerhouse in human territory has died.
There may not be any, so restarting this formation is just nonsense."
Venerable Chongxiao's inference is very reasonable, but in Jiang Chen's view, although these problems are difficult, they are not hopeless.
"Your Majesty, no matter how difficult it is, this is always a way. If we can restart this formation, at least we can block the demon army on the other side of the wilderness so that they cannot easily enter our human territory."
Jiang Chen has studied the terrain of human territory.
At that time, the arrangement of the All Heavens and All Souls Locking God Formation was based on this consideration. It was completely arranged in a key place between the demon controlled area and the human territory.
This formation is like a natural chasm. If you can't cross it, you have to take a detour. In the world of martial arts, the territory is vast, and if you have to detour, it will be very far.
If the demons invaded human territory and were stopped by this formation, they would have to take a detour at least ten times. This would obviously be much more difficult for the demons.
The more circles there are, the easier it is for the troops to disperse, which is more beneficial to the human race.
In ancient times, the leaders of the human race definitely considered the place where they chose to set up the formation.
If Jiang Chen can restart the All-Heaven-All-Souls-Securing-Gods Formation, it will definitely be a perfect barrier to the demons. But the problem is that the All-Heavens-All-Souls-Securing Gods Formation is of such a high level that it would be extremely difficult to restart this formation.
Big, even for Jiang Chen, it must be as difficult as climbing to the sky.
The resources consumed are absolutely massive.
The manpower required is absolutely massive.
However, they also have an advantage, that is, they have plenty of time. After all, the demonic calamity has not broken out at all now, and it is still possible to barely suppress it for decades.
In ancient times, it normally took ten or eight years to set up the All-Heavens and All-Souls Locking God Formation. Now it takes five times as much time, right?
Besides, in ancient times, a brand new formation was set up, but now it is just a restart.
Restarting this formation will at least have the foundation of the previous formation. It will definitely be much less difficult than setting up a brand new formation.
Therefore, although it is difficult to restart the All Heavens and All Spirits Locking God Formation, it is still feasible.
Seeing Jiang Chen's resolute tone, Venerable Chongxiao could not help but ask: "Sect Master, do you really want to restart the Great Soul Locking Formation of All Heavens and All Souls?"
"Your Majesty, I just ask you, with the current foundation of the human realm, if the demonic calamity breaks out, how much hope does the human realm have of winning?"
"There is no hope." Master Chongxiao was not polite at all.
"Then what if this formation is restarted?" Jiang Chen asked again.
"If the formation can be restarted," Lord Chongxiao mused, "If the formation can be restarted, the demons will definitely be blocked on the other side of the formation. If they want to invade human territory, the difficulty will be at least several times higher. When the time comes, they will
Maybe we will make plans to go to the territory of other races in Shenyuan Continent."
Jiang Chen nodded: "So, this formation is also the only hope for the human realm."
Venerable Chongxiao sighed: "Sect Master, I must remind you that this difficulty is definitely much greater than you think. You must have resources and manpower. The most important thing is that this formation, even if
We, the Danxiao Ancient Sect, only participated in 20 to 30%. There are no records of other parts in the inheritance of our Danxiao Ancient Sect. If you don’t understand those parts of the formation, how can you restart this formation?
