A trace of surprise flashed in Liu Ming's eyes. This black-robed old man, who was in the late stage of Condensation, was much more casual when facing Han Ye than the other Crystalization elders of the Sunset Department.
"Fellow Daoist Liu, let me introduce you. This is Elder Bai Wen, the totem master of our Sunset Tribe. These two are fellow Taoists from Zhongtian Continent." Chief Hanye showed no indifference to the black-robed old man.
They didn't care, so they introduced each other.
"I don't care where they come from, this is the forbidden area of my Sunset Department. It's better for those who are idle to leave as soon as possible." The old man in black robe glanced at Liu Ming and the two and said politely.
Liu Ming didn't look strange at all when he heard this. He looked very calm...
When the old man in black robe saw this, a trace of anger flashed in his eyes. Just when he was about to say something else, Han Ye beside him said:
"Elder Bai Wen doesn't need to be angry. These two fellow Taoists are both distinguished guests in the clan, and they both know something about the totem secrets. That's why I will bring them here to observe."
"Are you also a totem master?" When the old man in black robe heard this, his anger subsided slightly and he turned around Liu Ming suspiciously.
"I've only dabbled in the secret art of totem, and it's nowhere near as good as Ruping." Liu Ming smiled slightly and glanced at Gan Rubing beside him.
Only then did the old man in black robe cast his gaze on Qian Ruping, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
Qian Ruping's eyes had never left the five totem pillars on the altar since he came in. When he heard Liu Ming's words, he realized what he was saying, and a hint of shyness suddenly appeared on his face as he said:
"Clan Chief Han, can you allow the little girl to come closer?"
"Of course you can, my fellow Taoist, please do as you please." Han Ye nodded without hesitation.
After saying that, Han Ye winked at the old man in black robe.
Although the old man in black robe showed a serious look on his face, he still gave up his position and walked to the side, but his eyes were fixed on Qian Ruping, his face full of suspicion.
Qian Ruping smiled at Han Ye, expressed his gratitude, and then walked to the altar.
Liu Ming's eyes also moved to the five purple pillars on the altar, and he looked at them carefully.
But in addition to the spiritual patterns on the surface of these five purple pillars, there is also a strange-looking monster statue lying on the top. It looks a little like a horse and a little like a rhinoceros. It is the same as what was seen in the southern barbarian land of Zhongtian Continent.
The totem pole we arrived is very similar, only more exquisite.
Liu Ming thought about it for a while, and a look of understanding flashed across his face. Thinking about it, this secret technique of drawing monster totems to draw on their power is what the monster clan is good at, and this wild continent belongs to the monster clan.
The place of origin, the totem skills of the southern barbarians in the Zhongtian Continent, most likely originated from this barbaric continent.
At the same time, Qian Ruping had already reached a position less than ten feet away from the altar, and his eyes were observing on the nearest totem pole.
In the following time, she spent half an hour carefully examining each of the five pillars one by one.
Liu Ming has long been accustomed to Gan Ruping's concentration when facing the formation. Han Ye is also very patient and has never shown impatience from beginning to end. However, the old man in black robe beside him is a little impatient. But since
The clan leader had just spoken in person, and he couldn't say much.
"The totem secrets of your tribe are indeed exquisite, and they are different from the formation restrictions of our human race." Qian Ruping turned around and saluted the leader Hanye, and said with a smile.
"Can Taoist fellow Qian understand the mystery of this clan's totem formation?" Han Ye said with some surprise.
The reason why he brought the two of them here was because he didn't think that they could understand the totem secrets of the demon clan. In fact, he had other plans in mind.
"I dare not say that I have seen it very thoroughly, but the art of totem and the art of formation are essentially the same. They both try to gather the spiritual energy of the world around them and derive various offensive and defensive changes. According to the little girl's observation, the nobles' This totem secret technique should have a purely defensive effect, and it also has some psychedelic effects that disturb the mind. I wonder if this is correct?" Gan Ruping said with a smile.
Han Ye's eyes flashed when he heard this and he said nothing. However, the old man in black robe standing aside had his eyes wide open and a serious look on his face.
"Haha, Fairy Qian is indeed a master of formations. No wonder Fellow Daoist Liu holds him in high esteem." Chief Hanye glanced at Liu Ming and suddenly laughed.
"The clan leader has given you a compliment." Qian Rupingzhen replied with his head slightly lowered.
"Since fellow Taoist Qian is quite knowledgeable about the formation of formations, I wonder if you can give me some pointers on this clan's totem formation?" Chief Hanye said with a smile.
When the old man in black robe heard this, his expression changed. He was about to speak when he met Han Ye's faint eyes. His body suddenly became cold and he was speechless.
Gan Ruping turned his head and looked at Liu Ming. After getting a look of approval, he said with a chuckle: "I don't dare to give advice, but there are indeed some problems with the connection between the five totem pillars of the nobles... "
Gan Ruping pointed out some of the weaknesses of the Sunset Department's totem formation in a slow voice, and every word went straight to the core.
The old man in black robe was a little dissatisfied at first, but after a quarter of an hour, he completely changed his attitude towards Qian Ruping. His eyes were full of admiration, and he listened honestly with his ears lowered.
"The problems that fellow Taoist pointed out just now are so insightful that I really admire them. But I don't know if fellow Taoist Qian has any solution to these problems?" Han Ye's gaze towards Qian Ruping became respectful, and he handed over his hand. He bowed and asked.
"This... this little girl has come into contact with this secret technique of monster totem for the first time. She can only try her best, but there is no guarantee that she can solve these problems." Gan Ruping hesitated for a moment, then Liu Ming's voice suddenly sounded in his ears, and he said this. .
"Okay, Fairy Qian, just give it a go. If you need help, just ask Elder Bai Wen." Han Ye said immediately.
"Okay then." Gan Rubing glanced at Liu Ming and nodded.
…
The Sunset Tribe experienced this monster attack. Although the entire tribe was not seriously damaged, the atmosphere in the valley became extremely tense. There were two or three times more people patrolling around than before.
A figure flew in from the city wall at the entrance of the valley and landed in front of the main hall in the center of the tribe. It was Han Xin.
He stepped into the hall and walked out with a frown on his face after a moment.
"Have you seen your father?" Han Xin asked a guard outside the hall.
"Young Master, the clan leader has just brought the two new human monks into the Totem Castle." The guard hurriedly replied.
Han Xin was stunned when he heard this.
At this moment, the purple light beam emitted from the high platform in the center of the valley suddenly flickered, and a loud rumbling sound came from it, like muffled thunder.
The purple barrier above the valley also fluctuated violently, with waves of water-like ripples appearing, sweeping across all directions like waves rolling in the clouds, and the momentum was extremely astonishing.
The faces of the demon clan of the Sunset Tribe changed greatly, and they all looked in the direction of the Totem Castle. Some elders in the crystallization stage flew directly over from all over the valley.
But the castle gate was closed, and these people could only watch.
"How is this going?"
An old demon clan man with white hair and long narrow ears looked at the purple light pillar that was still flashing and oscillating above the castle, turned his head and looked at the people around him, and asked in a deep voice.
These people looked at each other in bewilderment and obviously had no clue.
At this moment, a ray of light rushed from the main hall, revealing Han Xin's figure in a flash.
"Young Master!" Several elders saluted hurriedly.
Han Xin returned the gift, looked at the closed door of the castle, and frowned.
"Young Master, do you know what happened? Is there something wrong with the totem pillar?" the old demon clan man who spoke before asked.
"I'm not very sure either. But I just learned that my father brought the two human monks into the castle." Han Xin said with a twinkle in his eye.
Everyone present was stunned when they heard this.
"Why did the clan leader bring two outsiders in? Could it be that those two people were responsible for this incident? Could it be that they intended to be detrimental to the clan?" The old man of the demon clan suddenly changed his face and said.
When the others heard this, their expressions sank.
"Probably not. If Fellow Daoist Liu wanted to do harm to our clan, he would not have saved me in the first place. Moreover, since my father brought the two of them into the fort, he must have his plans. Let's just wait and see what happens." Han Xin.
After pondering for a while, he said this.
When the others heard this, some nodded noncommittally, while others still looked worried.
But no one left, and more and more people gathered.
The change in the purple light pillar above the castle lasted for a full quarter of an hour, and finally stabilized. The purple light pillar rising into the sky was more than twice as thick as before, and the purple barrier over the valley was also significantly thicker.
"Crack" for a while!
The gate of the castle slowly opened, and three figures walked out of it. They were Han Ye, Liu Ming, and Gan Ruping.
Han Ye had a smile on his face and was slightly excited, Liu Ming looked calm, and Qian Ruping's face was slightly pale.
"Father, what happened just now?" Han Xin flew over, glanced at Liu Ming and the others, and asked softly.
"Haha, you don't have to panic. I just asked fellow Taoist Qian to help check the defensive totem formation in our clan. Fellow Taoist Qian is a formation master. Through her skillful work, the totem formation of our clan has been improved.
Many, I believe they can survive this beast wave safely." Chief Hanye waved his hands to everyone and said with a laugh.
The people present were shocked when they heard this, and dozens of eyes fell on Qian Ruping next to Liu Ming.
When Qian Ruping saw this, he seemed to be startled, and his body subconsciously shrank slightly behind Liu Ming.
"Okay, everything is fine here. You all should go your separate ways. The two distinguished guests and I still have important matters to discuss." Seeing this, Han Ye hurriedly gave another order.
