Later, as Li Yan let go more and more, and under his wanton consumption of soul power, Li Yan felt that the "soul star" in his imaginary communication began to become brighter.
And the speed at which his three souls absorb the power of the stars is also gradually increasing, which means that the recovery time after his soul power is consumed is also constantly shortening.
The emergence of such a situation is of course the best news for Li Yan. Testing here is much better than studying hard alone.
In fact, it is easy to explain this. Li Yan already knew the purpose of this long alley. It was just that when he was underground in the Soul Prison Clan, he used brute force to find a wild path by himself.
Now it is completely different. Not only does he have soul cultivation techniques, he also has soul skills. Everything is different.
But before that, although Li Yan knew the function of the long alley, his soul had already reached the state of transformation into a god, and he felt that he had already understood this place thoroughly, so he thought that it would have limited effect on him.
In Li Yan's opinion, his coming over actually helped Master Lan even more.
This was indeed the case at first, but as Master Lan continued to adjust the formation, Li Yanke began to get unexpected benefits from it.
In subsequent tests, although Li Yan's strength continues to increase simultaneously, he will still retain his strength and will not display all his cultivation.
However, the power of this formation is getting stronger and stronger, and the soul power that was originally wasted due to the lack of formation is constantly being reduced by Master Lan's continuous adjustment of the formation.
And more soul attack power was slowly revealed, which made it difficult for Li Yan to deal with it, and his progress in breaking through the level was still extending the distance.
On a certain day, after Li Yan killed the four souls in front of him, thousands of people came and went in the underground alley day and night.
In his memory, after finishing this position, the soul should appear five feet above his right side.
So, he immediately defended himself in that direction and moved forward quickly.
But when he arrived there, Li Yan unexpectedly discovered that there was no soul anymore, and the darkness in front of the long alley did not turn into dim yellow with his arrival.
The darkness there was like a frozen scene, blocking his path. Then, a small light door appeared in front of Li Yan.
Li Yan was a little stunned. This was different from the long underground alley in his memory. After a few breaths, he realized that it seemed that the formation ended here.
Sure enough, not long after, Master Lan's voice came from the formation, asking him to go out through the small light door.
It wasn't until after he went out that Li Yan realized the shortcomings of this formation. It hadn't been completely laid out yet. The long alley he entered was actually a half-finished product.
In the days that followed, Li Yan followed the previous test steps and re-entered the level. However, he noted down the length of the entire long alley, and when he arrived at that location, he directly looked for the light door to exit.
About four months later, when Li Yan broke through again, he found that the long alley in the formation had been extended again. He knew that this was Master Lan's research, and he had made a breakthrough.
At that time, Li Yan was still improving his skills, and he was secretly happy. Of course, he cooperated with the test more actively.
Rushing all the way back, he didn't know how much Master Lan had extended the formation, because the dim light would only appear near Li Yan, and further away was the long alley, which was in darkness.
So, Li Yan rushed all the way. When he made a defensive posture in one direction again somewhere in the long alley and continued to move forward, suddenly, another small light door appeared.
Li Yan knew that this distance was the extended part of Master Lan's formation, but when he went out again, Master Lan looked at him with a strange look in his eyes this time.
Li Yan didn't know why at the time, but before he could react, Master Lan began to ask about some of the things he had gotten into...
Just over two months later, when Li Yan went to break through the barrier again, he was shocked to find that the long alley had been extended again. This time, Master Lan had obviously studied the formation and made progress again.
In the newly extended long alley, Li Yan only walked forward for a short distance before he started fighting fiercely with the two spirits that appeared.
After Li Yan fought for a while, he felt that the strength of the souls in front of him had not increased. In fact, he could kill the opponent in just twenty breaths. The two souls seemed to be not much different from those he had encountered before.
Just when he thought of this, Li Yan's mind suddenly felt like a bolt of lightning struck him!
"No, didn't she just have a breakthrough in this formation? It stands to reason that after a breakthrough in the formation, it's not just an extension of the distance.
But the strength of the souls here will be enhanced, at least the soul power wasted when they attack will be reduced, otherwise how can we say that the formation has achieved a breakthrough..."
At this moment, Li Yan suddenly remembered that more than two months ago, after the long alley was extended, the attack power of the soul had indeed increased.
Moreover, the formation extension took more than four months with Master Lan's help.
But this time, the formation had only lasted for more than two months, and there was a new breakthrough again, but the power of the formation did not increase much, which obviously felt wrong.
In Li Yan's mind, scenes of breaking through the barrier quickly flashed through his mind, and he quickly recalled Master Lan's somewhat strange look when he went out after the long alley had just been extended.
Years of caution have given Li Yan an instinctive intuition about danger, although he was unable to find out the source of the danger.
But when he fought against the two souls in front of him again, he slightly relaxed his attack speed. Instead, he quickly thought about the reasons in his mind, wondering where the problem was?
But until he killed these two souls, he never figured out why Master Lan looked at him like that?
But the soul has been killed, and he has to move on. Otherwise, Master Lan outside will definitely see that something is wrong with him.
However, this time Li Yan deliberately slowed down and kept thinking in his mind. Just when he was about to move forward in one direction, he suddenly saw the dark corner of the long alley ahead...
At this moment, a flash of lightning flashed through Li Yan's mind. He finally knew what mistake he had made, and he predicted the direction of extension at the end of the long alley...
Therefore, in the following days, Master Lan discovered that Li Yan's judgment was not so accurate!
…………
Outside of the formation, Li Yan stopped recovering after an hour, and Master Lan communicated with him in detail.
Li Yan discovered that the questions Master Lan asked today were much more than before.
And he even asked some questions that he had asked before repeatedly. It was obvious that the other party was worried.
Li Yan didn't know what was going on, so he could only answer cautiously. It wasn't until a long time later that Master Lan waved his hand.
"I don't need you here these days. You go back to rest and recover first. I will notify you after the formation here is adjusted!"
When Master Lan spoke, his brows were still slightly furrowed, as if he had not yet awakened from his thoughts.
"Are you asking... to let this junior go back first?"
Li Yan asked with some uncertainty.
The other side adjusted their formation several times before, but they didn't let him leave. They just let him stay.
While practicing and recovering, I would always ask myself if I had any questions.
Moreover, when he first came here, Master Lan said that since it was the first test, it might take three to five years.
This is also based on the longest period of time in the agreement given by Li Yan. It has only been about three years, and this time the test formation is over?
Master Lan said that he wanted to go back and rest for a few days, but debugging the formation was definitely not that fast. It might take ten days and a half, or even longer.
"Okay, you go back first!" .??.
Master Lan didn't want to say more, as if she was afraid that Li Yan would disrupt her thoughts, she waved again.
Until Li Yan left, Master Lan still stood outside the formation, frowning in deep thought, as if he didn't even know Li Yan had left.
Tang Feng's words made her feel that time was getting tighter and tighter. She had to carefully adjust the formation from beginning to end this time.
…………
It was sunset in the sky, and Li Yan was flying neither fast nor slow.
"There is something wrong with Master Lan today. From her tone, we can feel that she is in a hurry to study this formation..."
Li Yan thought in his heart.
Master Lan looked the same as before before she entered the formation. But after she came out again, her expression seemed to become a little more anxious.
And after some exchanges with herself, she asked herself to leave directly today, while she stayed alone at the formation.
Although Li Yan felt that Master Lan was a little unusual today, he quickly put the matter behind him. As long as he didn't feel any danger, he didn't have to think about it for the time being.
Looking at the magnificent sunset in the sky, Li Yan took a deep breath of the rich aura in the air. Although he had been very hard and tired in the past three years, he also enjoyed it.
Discovering that his cultivation could be so advanced, it was even more effective than meditation. Li Yan always hoped that he could go through the test a few more times. Anyway, the consumption of those souls was not at his own expense.
Not long after, Li Yan saw his courtyard from a distance while thinking about it.
And just as he approached the courtyard, his eyes suddenly froze. At this moment, there were some monks flying past in the sky.
Therefore, it was not surprising to see other monks here, but it was only then that Li Yan noticed that there was a monk standing right outside the gate of his courtyard.
Moreover, that person was talking to the formation restriction. Li Yan could faintly hear that the other person seemed to be asking "Friend Daoist Li...are you there..." or something like that.
Zhang Henian was extremely depressed. It was originally just a small matter, but now more than three years have passed, but he still failed to do it. Xiong Tianba was already very dissatisfied with him.
Considering that the other party might be in seclusion, although he did not come over continuously to look for her, he would still come over once every ten and a half days, but the other party never responded.
I have also asked them to help send a message to Li Yan's token through the Deacon Hall of Yiquetang, but it has always been like a rut in the sea, with no news feedback.
"Damn it, this kid didn't go into seclusion and went crazy and died in there, right?"
Zhang Henian did not expect that Li Yan would not even reply to the news from the Deacon Hall at the entrance of the hall. Even if he was in seclusion, the sect's token would still appear as a warning.
Zhang Henian held back the depression of the past few years in his heart and kept cursing.
He also has another way to wake up the opponent, which is to forcefully attack the restriction here, which will naturally alert the people inside.
However, within the sect, if someone arbitrarily attacks the restrictions on the place where others live, even if he is a disciple of the Arc Arrow Hall who is responsible for law enforcement, he will not be able to get away with it.
"Damn it, I'm going to be scolded by Elder Xiong again when I go back.
If I let this kid see me, I will give him a slap in the face..."
"Senior, are you looking for me?"
Just when Zhang Henian felt depressed and felt that he still could not complete the tasks assigned by Elder Xiong, a voice suddenly came from the sky.
Li Yan looked at the lean man standing at the door of his courtyard. He didn't know him. But the "Fellow Daoist Li" he called was clearly him.
This made him feel a little strange. He had already sensed that this lean man's cultivation was that he was a senior in the spirit transformation realm.
I don’t know why the other party came to visit me. I owe the sect only five tasks in a hundred years.
"Could this be a monk from the Law Enforcement Hall who came to inquire about the status of the mission? But I have never heard that there is a matter of urging the mission within a hundred years..."
Li Yan also looked puzzled.
After Zhang Henian heard this voice, he immediately looked for it. He immediately saw a short-haired young man in sect clothes in the air, looking at him with a puzzled face.
But he recognized this person at a glance. It was the person in the portrait that Elder Xiong showed him. He looked at Li Yan in the air, and then turned to look at the courtyard.
"Did he just go out today? Or has he always been away from where he lives?"
Zhang Henian suddenly felt as if he was always calling people into an empty house, but a smile appeared on his face.
"Hey, Fellow Daoist Li, I'm in charge of the chapter of Hu Shitang. I've been looking for you many times.
And through your deacon hall, I sent messages to fellow Taoist sects to inquire, but there has been no news. Are you out on business?"
Finally finding the other party, Zhang Henian immediately asked.
But he knew that Li Yan had not left the sect because he had checked the entry and exit records of sect disciples at the mountain gate, but he still asked deliberately.
At the same time, although he was angry, his tone was still polite.
He had read some information about Li Yan given by Elder Xiong and knew that this person was related to Master Lan. Therefore, Elder Xiong sent him, the god-forming monk, to come here. This was considered as giving the other party enough face.
.
After hearing this, Li Yan's face became more confused.
"Ushido? You even asked the Deacon Hall to send me news? Why are they here looking for me? I don't seem to have violated the rules of the house!"
While Li Yan was thinking in his mind, he also saluted the other party. After all, this was a monk in the realm of divine transformation.
"Junior has been at Master Lan's place to handle some chores for Senior Lan. He just came back today, so he really doesn't know anything about it."
As Li Yan spoke, his soul power communicated with the empty shadow space, and then a red token, still shining, appeared in his palm.
He quickly probed in with his soul power, and sure enough, there was news from the Deacon Hall of Yique Hall, which told him that a monk from Huiya Hall had something to do with him.
Li Yan didn't know when the information was sent to him in the Deacon Hall. When he was at Master Lan's place, the other party asked him to fully cooperate with the test and completely cut off contact with the outside world.
This is because Master Lan is afraid that Li Yan has other things on his mind and does not let Li Yan pay attention to other things.
Listening to what Li Yan said and looking at the shining token in the opponent's hand, Zhang Henian felt depressed and also felt a little thump in his heart.
"This kid really... really has never seen the token, and it's a shame that I bothered to find someone...
After being outside for several years, he... Not only did he have some relationship with Master Lan, he was also able to handle chores for him at close range. What chores?
It’s hard for others to see Master Lan, but he seems to be... staying at Master Lan’s place all the time..."
Zhang Henian immediately thought of many possibilities!
