Chapter 595: Illusory Heart Array and Seventh Residential Body
"Master, do you think my eldest brother can pass the exam this time?"
"You are Wen Yang's biological sister, so you have so little confidence in him?"
"I'm just worried about what might happen."
In the back garden of the Chu Mansion, among the stone pavilions, Lu Ruolan looked at her master and replied with some embarrassment.
"Not only Wen Yang, but also Wei Jin, Xing Chen and the others will win. However, since you have embarked on the path to immortality, don't be distracted by trivial matters like this in the future." Chu Feng smiled and turned to ask,
"Have you seen the formation secrets I taught you, what have you gained?"
"I have learned how to arrange the Illusionary Heart Array. Master, do you want to take the first or second exam?"
"So fast!" Chu Feng's eyes suddenly glowed with joy. Although it was only the most basic of the mortal-level formations, it was not that easy to understand. Moreover, it had only been a few days, so it was really unbelievable.
"Okay, you try to arrange it."
Chu Feng became interested and waved his arms. In a flash of light, dozens of half-foot-long triangular flags emerged and fell onto the stone table.
"Flags! So Master has already refined them?" Seeing these flags, Lu Ruolan's eyes suddenly lit up and she said with a surprise expression.
"This is a general formation flag. It can be used to arrange some common formations. I will give it to you later." Chu Feng waved his hand and said,
"let's start."
"Thank you so much, Master."
Lu Ruolan smiled happily, then picked up all the formation flags and walked towards the garden.
The back garden of the Chu Mansion is very large, with not only a flower area, but also many rockeries and stone forests embedded in it. Unfortunately, the weather is cold now, and everything is covered with heavy snow.
When they reached the edge area, Lu Ruolan stopped and scanned the area ahead. Finally, as if she had made a decision, she took another step towards an open area.
"Da da da……"
But at this moment, a burst of footsteps sounded, and Chu Feng's thoughts were interrupted. When he turned his head to look, it was Xiao Liu running over from a distance.
"Sir, Taoist Master Shi is here."
"Oh!" Chu Feng was slightly surprised. What was Shi Tai doing here at this time? His consciousness swept away and he said with a smile.
"Invite people here and tell Xiaocui to make a pot of spiritual tea. In addition, prepare some snacks..."
"I obey, little one."
Xiao Liu nodded, turned and left. He was very fast, and after a while, he had returned with Shi Tai.
The latter is still wearing a simple Taoist robe, extremely simple. He is also holding another smaller figure in his hand? It is a young Taoist boy.
"The Blessed Infinite Heavenly Lord, fellow Taoist Chu, and the poor Taoist are here to cause trouble again."
"Brother Dao, there is no need to be polite. Please sit down quickly." A smile appeared on Chu Feng's face. He turned his eyes to one side and asked.
"Is this little girl Zhong Lingyuxiu the direct disciple that Taoist brother always talks about?"
"Does my master often mention me?" Before Shi Tai could speak, the little Taoist boy had already spoken, asking slightly in surprise.
"Ying'er can't be rude."
Shi Tai immediately reprimanded the other party. Although this Master Feiyun was young, he had unfathomable strength. He always maintained a sense of respect in his heart, and was never overly polite in his words and deeds.
"master……"
The little Taoist boy was obviously a little aggrieved and shook Shi Tai's sleeves to act coquettishly. Seeing him like this, Shi Tai suddenly felt helpless and sighed softly,
"The bad guy has been spoiled by poor Taoists. I hope fellow Taoists will not blame him."
"Your disciple is naturally straightforward and has no fault, so how can you blame him? Brother Taoist, you are worrying too much." Chu Feng shook his head slightly, and saw Xiao Cui walking slowly from the corner of his eye, and he suddenly smiled and said,
"Yesterday Wuhuazhai sent some new snacks. They haven't been opened yet. Miss Ying'er can try them and see if they suit your taste."
"It's so beautiful." Xiaodao Tong Ying'er couldn't help but exclaimed when she saw the plates of exquisite snacks placed one by one by Xiaocui. She looked up at Chu Feng and asked tentatively,
"Can we eat it now?"
"Of course, you're welcome."
Chu Feng answered with a smile, but his eyes noticed that Shi Tai beside him had a 'helpless' look. Obviously, the old Taoist really doted on this young apprentice.
"Huh..." Suddenly, Shitai, who was feeling a little embarrassed, suddenly noticed the situation in the garden in front of him, and couldn't help but let out a soft sigh and asked,
"I dare to ask fellow Daoist Chu, who is that girl in the distance, but is she setting up the formation?"
"That's true." Chu Feng nodded and said,
"She is the sister of Chu's good friend. Because of her qualifications, she just became my disciple a few days ago."
"This is unexpected, but I would like to congratulate my Taoist friend on getting a good disciple."
Shi Tai stroked his beard, but he couldn't help but have a doubt in his heart. Since he had just been accepted into the sect, his path of cultivation must not have started yet. Why did he suddenly set up a formation? Isn't this chaos?
"My apprentice has a slight talent for formations. He has just learned a basic formation. Brother Taoist, you might as well help test it." Chu Feng guessed what the other party was thinking and did not explain too much, instead he invited with a smile.
road.
"Then it's better for me to be respectful than to obey." Shi Tai did not refuse and replied with a smile. However, seeing his little apprentice who was still addicted to delicious food, he couldn't help but feel a little sour in his heart.
The Illusion Heart Formation is a primary form of illusion formation. It can transform the surrounding environment and allow those with weak will to fall into the illusion.
Of course, this formation can only work on beasts, mortals, or low-level practitioners. Once the spiritual power increases, the effect will gradually weaken.
Lu Ruolan seemed to have already understood the battle strategy, so the arrangement was effortless and was completed smoothly in almost a moment.
He stood in the formation and checked it, and then waved the command flag in his hand. In an instant, a series of faint lights lit up from the formation flag, and the light intertwined and enveloped the nearby area.
"This...is this a fantasy formation?"
Seeing the woman in the formation disappear, Shi Tai was a little surprised. Not only because of the successful completion of the formation, but even more shocking was that when the woman activated the formation, she actually showed considerable mana fluctuations.
"This is the Illusion Heart Array, it is somewhat powerful for those with weak mental strength." Chu Feng nodded, before he finished speaking, he saw the Illusion Array shaking slightly, but Lu Ruolan slowly walked out of it.
"Master, you can come and check."
"Brother Taoist, please..."
"Just about to experience it."
Shi Tai did not hesitate and followed the other party towards the illusion formation. The Tong Ying'er was obviously attracted to her, and she ran after him without caring about the delicious snacks in her hands.
"Master, wait for me."
"You girl." Shi Tai grabbed his little apprentice's collar and reminded him helplessly,
"Follow me later and don't run around, okay?"
"Yeah, I know."
Ying'er nodded, looking extremely well-behaved. In response to this, Shi Tai could only sigh softly again, hoping that she would listen, otherwise, he might suffer a lot later.
At this time, Lu Ruolan has returned to the formation again. As the organizer of the formation, she can take charge and adapt to changes, and can also maximize the power of the formation.
"Master, this place is so beautiful, just like the real thing."
As soon as she entered the formation, Tao Tong Ying'er couldn't help but burst into surprise, and her bright eyes kept looking around.
"The breeze is blowing, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant. I didn't expect that an illusion formation can manifest so realistically. It's a good formation." Shi Tai looked at the environment that was very different from the outside and praised it unabashedly.
"Fellow Taoist, may you have noticed the flaw in it?" Chu Feng took a brief look at the entire formation. Therefore, his expression was very calm, and he asked Shi Tai instead.
"As fellow Taoist said before, the biggest limitation of this formation is that it can only work on those with weak mental strength. This is the biggest flaw. Apart from this, there is indeed nothing found." Shi Tai shook his head slightly.
"Not necessarily." Chu Feng smiled and explained,
"The formation is indeed only effective on those with weak mental strength. However, if the people in the main formation are strong, then the power they can exert is far from that."
After the words fell, I saw him reaching forward with one hand. The next moment, he heard a sweet cry, and a stream of light shot out from somewhere in the formation and fell into his palm.
"Main formation flag!"
When Shi Tai saw the thing in the other person's hand, his heart suddenly moved, and he grabbed his little apprentice's hand even tighter.
Chu Feng didn't seem to notice anything strange about the other party. He waved the formation flag slightly in his hand. In an instant, all the birdsong and fragrance of flowers around him disappeared, replaced by the snow-covered scenery in the back garden.
"Master, what are you doing? How did you disperse the formation?" Lu Ruolan was a little surprised, walked over and asked.
"Brother Dao, what do you think?" Chu Feng did not answer the other party, but turned to look at Shi Tai. The latter looked solemn, as if he was deep in thought. After a long time, he suddenly slapped his forehead and said,
"It's such an illusory formation. It's hard to tell whether it's real or fake. Even a poor man was almost fooled into it."
"Brother Taoist has extraordinary knowledge, and Mr. Chu has learned from it."
"How dare you, how dare you, the reason why Pindao was able to discover this flaw is purely a coincidence."
The two of them complimented each other and went back and forth, making Lu Ruolan and Xiaodao Tong Ying'er confused. What are they talking about? Why can't they understand?
Chu Feng noticed the confusion in Lu Ruolan's eyes, and then smiled:
"Being able to set up this illusory heart array is already pretty good, but the current situation has made it more difficult. You might as well calm down and sense it carefully again."
After hearing the master's instructions, Lu Ruolan nodded immediately and looked around carefully.
Tao Tong Ying'er also became interested and looked at her master. Shi Tai couldn't help being surprised, and stopped holding on to the master and let him go.
"This is good, it can be regarded as a kind of mental tempering."
Chu Feng chuckled and waved the formation flag in his hand again. In the next moment, Shi Tai and everyone turned into dots of starlight and disappeared from sight.
"Ah, master..."
"Master..."
Only then did Lu Ruolan and Xiaodao Tong Yinger react, and they immediately exclaimed. Unfortunately, no matter how they shouted, there was no response.
"Sister...sister, what should I do? Master and the others are missing."
"Don't be afraid, little sister. Master is just testing us, there is no danger."
Seeing the little Taoist boy's pale face, Lu Ruolan suddenly felt maternal and forced herself to calm down. She squatted down and hugged him in her arms, and then said,
"If I guessed correctly, this place should still be in the Illusion Heart Formation. The top priority is to find a way to crack it as soon as possible."
"Then...how to find it? I'm a little scared."
"Don't be afraid. I have studied this formation carefully and I will definitely succeed."
Lu Ruolan patted the other party's vest, stood up again, and turned to look in all directions.
Although what I saw was a snow-covered garden, it was extremely quiet and not a single sound could be heard. Not only that, in the stone pavilion somewhere in the distance, not only were there no figures of the two masters, but Xiao Cui was also there.
No, this situation is really weird.
"Hold my sister's hand and never let go."
"Yeah, I know."
The two girls, one big and one small, all nodded, encouraging each other, and then walked around to explore the surroundings.
…
Outside the formation, in the stone pavilion.
At this time, Chu Feng was sitting opposite Shi Tai, and as for Xiao Cui, he had already sent him away.
"Brother Taoist being too doting on your disciple may not be a good thing."
"Fellow Daoist Chu gave me a warning, and I thanked you for it." Shi Tai smiled bitterly and explained,
"It's just that my Taoist friends don't know that Ying'er was born with a pure Yin fate. As the saying goes, if Yin cannot be born, Yang can't grow, so her life is destined to be short. Therefore, I don't want to force myself too much on her.
.”
"Innate pure yin!" Chu Feng's heart froze, and he felt vaguely familiar, so he asked tentatively,
"Since she is pure yin, when she is looking for a man with an innate pure yang destiny to marry, the yin and yang can be reconciled. Why is Brother Dao so troubled?"
"Although it's true, there are many pure yang people, but there are very few innate ones. How can they be found easily?" Shi Tai sighed and continued,
"Over the years, Pindao has traveled around the world with his disciples, with the purpose of making discoveries. However, until now, there is still no progress."
After a pause, he seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly said,
"In fact, Senior Tian Longzi once proposed a way to me. Wait until the disciple is a few years older to marry the current emperor, and use the dragon energy of the Song Dynasty to achieve the alleviation effect. Even if it cannot be cured, it can extend the life span by more than ten years.
.”
"This is a good idea."
Chu Feng agreed, but sneered in his heart.
This scene is very similar to what Li Qingzhao encountered in the past. Come to think of it, healing people and saving people is fake, but conspiracy is real, right? Shi Tai's young apprentice Yinger is most likely the host body of the seventh nightmare spirit.
.
"Master, let me go check it out."
Xiao Zi's voice came from the sea of consciousness, and it was obvious that he also had such a guess.
"Be careful and don't hurt the other person."
"Master, don't worry, I understand."
A faint purple light flashed from behind and disappeared instantly. Shi Tai was not aware of it at all.
Chu Feng straightened his expression and continued:
"Brother Dao, don't worry too much. I think that girl Ying'er is in good health. Her life should not be in danger in a few years. During this period, you can always find a man with pure Yang innateness."
"By the good words of fellow Taoist, I will not give up. However, if there is still no progress in the end, I can only try the method of Senior Tian Longzi." Shi Tai sighed and decided.
"In the future, Chu will also pay attention to this matter." Chu Feng comforted the other party again, and then changed the subject.
"Speaking of which, Brother Taoist came to visit today. I guess there must be something going on?"
"That's true." When it came to business, Shi Tai immediately put away his thoughts, his expression became solemn, and he said slowly,
"To be honest, just yesterday, Pindao suddenly received a letter from a paper crane. Fellow Taoist, you might as well take a look at it first and discuss it later."
