The group of people left the city again and traveled around the mountains and rivers.
Although it is close to the hinterland, and based on the time when the Huoyun Sect was established, it has been developed for more than 2,000 years, many places still maintain their original ecology. Outside Stanley City, there are undulating mountains and swamps and wetlands.
Not long after leaving Stanley City.
The main road that was originally paved with stone slabs has completely turned into a dirt road.
Since it had just rained a few days ago, there were large and small "mud ponds" everywhere along the way. Together with the rancid mud and the weeds growing on both sides, it was almost difficult for people to stay.
Of course, for the immortal cultivators who come and go, it is just a little eyesore.
"Look, there are so many birds!" Zhang Shuniang said excitedly.
"There seems to be a lake ahead!" Zhou Hong also showed the attitude of a little girl and said happily.
In the distance, there are vast expanse of blue waves, the same color as water and sky, and a large area of aquatic forest spreads wildly along the lake. Although it is almost late autumn, the place is full of green and continuous cover, with birds flying above, noisy and lively, giving it a lively appearance.
"Then why not stay here tonight?" Chen Li said with a smile.
The reason why he took his wife and concubines out for fun this time was that although the Wu Tu Ming Light Array in the basement of his home did not appear to be dangerous at the moment, it was still not safe. For safety reasons, Chen Li decided to go out for a while.
Secondly, he also needs to take this opportunity to debug the formation so that it can be integrated into the city defense formation, run perfectly, and increase its concealment.
The phantom body is very fast.
Chen Li and others were playing around again.
It doesn't take much effort to go back.
As long as he relays phantom bodies one after another, it's not much different from when he was at home.
…
Sunset!
Lakeside!
A waterfowl was stripped and washed, then roasted golden over charcoal fire. The oil dripped from time to time, sparks bursting out, and the fragrance filled the air, making people salivate.
This kind of water bird is quite large, weighing thirty to forty kilograms alone.
Quite plump.
"It should be ready to eat." Zhou Hong said, cutting off a large plate with a knife.
"The taste is okay!" Chen Li picked up a piece, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it a few times.
After all, these are just ordinary birds and cannot ask for too much, but combined with the colorful lake here, it is quite leisurely and wild.
From time to time, monks can be seen flying across the sky.
Some monks who were originally coming here were so frightened when they saw Chen Li and the others that they quickly turned around and did not dare to get close.
"Husband, do you think there will be monsters in this lake?" Zhang Shuniang asked worriedly.
"It's possible!" Chen Li stood up and looked at the lake.
You can barely see beyond.
There is a high possibility that there are monsters in such a large lake.
But after all, this place is close to Stanley City. The most I can think of is the second level, and the third level is unlikely:
"When we go to sleep, we just need to stay away from the lake."
A few people were chatting and laughing while eating, and the night was getting darker.
Chen Li chose to set up camp a few miles away from the lake shore, set up tents and set up formations.
Fortunately, my luck was not too bad, and the night passed safely without any surprises or dangers.
…
In the following days, a few people traveled together without any destination. They stayed wherever they went.
If you encounter mountains, you will dig a hole; if there is no mountains, you will live in a tent.
Traveling across mountains and rivers and playing for more than a month, even Zhang Shuniang, who loves to play the most, couldn't stand it anymore. She no longer had the excitement at the beginning. Considering that the Wutu Mingguang Array had been basically debugged, Chen Li finally announced that he was going back.
"Master, First Madam, and Second Madam, you are back!" Bai Wei said happily as soon as she entered the door.
"Oh, I'm exhausted. It's not fun at all. I just walked around. It's very desolate. I can't eat well or sleep well every day. I'm just like a savage." Zhang Shuniang grabbed Bai Wei and chirped: "I can't.
I miss you, please come with us next time."
Bai Wei blushed, lowered her head and said, "Everything is entirely up to the master and his wife."
"It's so crowded and Bai Wei is not an outsider anyway. I think we can go together next time." Zhou Hong said with a smile and glanced at Chen Li. Bai Wei could hide her thoughts from others, but not from her. She
I don't object either.
She usually waits on her personally, but in her opinion, it is only a matter of time.
Chen Li pretended not to notice Zhou Hong's look, was too lazy to participate in their conversation, and went to check the formation.
Wutu Mingguang Array is no longer hidden in the basement.
Instead, it was placed on the ground.
Outside is the Qingyuan Evil Avoidance Formation, and inside is the Wutu Mingguang Formation. If the outermost city protection formation of Stanley City is added, it is equivalent to the stacking of three sets of magic formations. The difficulty will increase exponentially. If it weren't for Chen Li
With the help of the technique of seeking good luck and avoiding evil, and a little bit of testing and debugging, I am afraid that the fluctuations of the magic circle will no longer be concealed.
But even so, Chen Li didn't dare to keep opening it because the risk was too great.
This kind of thing should only be used in the most dangerous times.
He checked for a while and found that there was no need to modify it, so he took out the control token and controlled the Wutu Mingguang Array to close.
Chen Li couldn't help but feel relieved.
The pressure that had been weighing on my mind for the past month finally disappeared.
"With this formation, we can finally gain a foothold in Stanley City."
"By the way, I almost forgot." Chen Li slapped his forehead and remembered something.
During this period of time, he was no longer just playing around.
Not only did I continue my daily practice, but I also took the time to scan through the books on spells in the Sutra Pavilion. Unfortunately, I couldn't find any suitable low-level auxiliary spells. However, a low-level secret spell called "War Cry" caused a stir.
Chen Li is interested.
This is a melee auxiliary method.
By mobilizing qi, blood and spiritual power through secret techniques, one can emit a huge roar. On the one hand, it can boil one's own qi and blood, greatly increasing one's strength and courage. On the other hand, it can shake the opponent's mind.
This low-level secret technique is almost useless to monks who have already established a foundation.
However, Chen Li found that this secret technique and the loud sound technique were a perfect match.
Although the Big Sound Technique has the name of "Big Sound", it actually does not make any sound. It only has the power of amplification. It is generally used for long-distance communication and battlefield shouting. After reaching the full level, this technique becomes extremely powerful.
It is extremely destructive and has completely turned into a sonic weapon.
At close range, the ordinary version of the Water Element Shield Technique can be directly shattered, and the destructive power is astonishing.
But ordinary shouting, even if it breaks the throat, has limited power after all.
It may be useful against opponents in the middle stage of foundation building, but it is useless against opponents in the late stage of foundation building.
"War Cry" solves this problem.
The activation time of the secret technique is short, and after reaching the full level, it can be practiced almost to the point of instinct. It can be activated as soon as the mind moves, and the time is negligible. Cooperating with each other is equivalent to creating a higher-level compound technique.
I had been playing around before, and the phantom body was also busy debugging the formation.
I just learned it, not practiced it.
Now, you can practice it.
Fortunately, this first-level secret technique is easy to practice and is much faster than magic.
Then, Chen Li cast spells continuously and released three phantom bodies. Soon the phantom bodies ran to a remote corner and began to level up.
