'It's true that good defenders are hidden under the Nine Earths...'
After a whole afternoon of analysis and cracking, Jiang Beiran finally came up with some clues.
Based on the analysis of the positions of these five mysterious disks and the terrain of this valley, Jiang Beiran could not help but marvel at how deeply this formation was hidden.
As the saying goes, treasures can be hidden under the nine earths. Often, straight talismans are used to add time stems, and the earth is quiet and beneficial for hiding.
If Jiang Beiran's analysis is correct, then even an inconspicuous pebble on this island is most likely part of the formation.
He pulled out a huge piece of rice paper from the Qiankun Ring and spread it on the ground. Jiang Beiran began to splash ink on it.
After half a stick of incense, the painting was completed, and it was exactly the topographic map of the mountains and rivers in Jinding Island.
It’s just that there is no broad and majestic mountain scenery in the painting, nor are there majestic mountains stretching for thousands of miles.
Some are just simple shapes and some marks that only Jiang Beiran himself can understand.
Then there was a "stab" sound, and Jiang Beiran suddenly tore off a corner of the rice paper.
'As expected...' Jiang Beiran looked at the drawing paper and smiled.
Then there was the sound of tearing paper one after another.
Jiang Beiran tore a large piece of rice paper into ninety-nine and eighty-one pieces and spread them on the ground.
The reason why he did this was of course not to play jigsaw puzzles, but because Jiang Beiran discovered that the formations hidden in the mountains were not arranged according to conventional methods at all.
The reason is very simple. Since Jiang Beiran has found the Five Elements node in this mountain range, it means that this formation has not deviated from the basic rules. And without deviating from the basic rules, Jiang Beiran cannot see its formation at all.
Legal context.
Then this is not very metaphysical.
So Jiang Beiran made a bold guess, that is, the formation organizer completely disrupted the formation on the island, that is, he did not arrange the formation in the order of the basic rules, but he could still make everyone
The array is effective.
This was another formation technique that Jiang Beiran had never heard of, but the facts proved that he didn't seem to have guessed wrong.
After tearing up the map and rearranging it, Jiang Beiran had gained a glimmer of enlightenment.
Taking out five pieces of paper representing the positions of the nodes of the five elements, he arranged them in Dunjia style, and Jiang Beiran began to mutter something.
"Yuan has a strange weapon, which is the source of all phenomena. It contains eight trigrams and armor, where magic and ghosts hide. Yin means hiding, hiding means escaping, and talismans mean straight talismans..."
While reciting the words, Jiang Beiran reached out and pieced together the fragmented map fragments based on the five elements nodes.
After the circle around the Five Elements node was filled in, Jiang Beiran picked up a larger piece of paper.
"Fu Jia is the head of the Heavenly Stems and sits in the Yin Palace of Earthly Branches."
After Jiang Beiran finished reading, he pressed the piece of paper to the east.
Then Jiang Beiran picked up a smaller piece of paper.
"Geng is the essence of Yang Metal, the symbol of Taibai in the West."
After finishing speaking, he pressed the paper to the west.
…
In the end, it took a full two hours for Jiang Beiran to finally completely reconstruct this mountain and terrain map.
"Cool!"
Looking at the reconstructed map, Jiang Beiran felt a chill in his heart, his heart was soaring, not to mention feeling more comfortable.
After studying this Jinding Island for so long, he finally gained something today. How could he be unhappy about this?
‘Eight Yang Shigen Formation.’
Jiang Beiran finally recognized the formation that protected the mountains here. However, although the Eight Yang Shigen Formation was indeed a top-level defensive formation, it was not so strong that even Xuan Sheng could not break it.
'It seems that it should be more than just the Eight Yang Sakyamuni Formation...'
After studying the map carefully again, Jiang Beiran rubbed his chin and thought: "If I break the Eight Yang Shigen Formation... I wonder if there is still Jinding Island outside?"
Just when Jiang Beiran was eager to give it a try, the system options suddenly popped up.
[Option 1: Decrypt the Eight Yang Shigen Formation. Completion reward: Wuwangba Scroll (Low Grade Heaven Level)]
[Option 2: Tell Shi Hongyun about this discovery after leaving the island. Completion reward: random special attribute point +1]
'Be good!'
Jiang Beiran was a little confused when he saw the option to directly jump to the lower-level heaven level.
At the same time, I also understood something.
There is a high probability that the area outside the valley is no longer Jinding Island, but some extremely dangerous place. Of course, it is also possible that breaking this formation in front of so many people will most likely cause a series of dangers.
But compared to the latecomers, Jiang Beiran felt that the former was more likely.
As for this second option, Jiang Beiran was also a little surprised.
Since there are special attribute points, the system identifies this matter as his active intention to cause trouble.
But Jiang Beiran felt that he was wronged. He just wanted to satisfy his curiosity. Is this wrong?
Silently choosing the second option, Jiang Beiran thought about how to tell Shi Hongyun about this matter after he went out, or how to tell Shi Hongyun about this matter in order to obtain the greatest benefits for himself.
After a moment, Jiang Beiran shook his head. Now was not the time to think about this matter. Now that he had discovered the secret of this mountain and river, it should be a matter of course to find the other mysterious discs.
Continuing to call Shi Fenglan over to take over, Jiang Beiran left the camp to find Xiao Qi and Ju Zimin.
"Brother Wang (senior)"
Seeing Jiang Beiran's arrival, the two people who were resting immediately stood up and saluted.
"Follow me." Jiang Beiran said and walked towards the outside of the cave.
The two of them didn't ask any questions and immediately followed quickly.
All the way to a wasteland, Jiang Beiran looked at the residents and asked, "Did you find anything?"
The residents looked around for a while, then pointed to a pile of rocks and said, "There."
After hearing this, Xiao Qi did not look directly over, but looked at Brother Wang first.
Because he couldn't even withstand the impact of the fifth mysterious fragment just now, and the impact of the sixth piece was obviously even worse.
"Let's see." Jiang Beiran said calmly.
Just two words made Xiao Qi feel more secure. He turned around and looked in the direction pointed by the residents.
And just when Jiang Beiran was about to use his mental power to protect Xiao Qi again, he discovered that he had no intention of screaming this time. He was just stunned for a moment, as if his soul had flown out of his body.
Jiang Beiran narrowed his eyes and felt that the mysterious disk this time seemed not simple.
Without interrupting Xiao Qi, Jiang Beiran stood aside and observed silently. He saw that Xiao Qi's expression was constantly changing, sometimes sad, sometimes happy, as if he was experiencing someone else's life.
After a cup of tea, Xiao Qi suddenly came back to his senses and gasped for air.
"Huh...huh...Brother Wang, me! I..."
Xiao Qi, who had something to say in a hurry, was suddenly stunned because he couldn't remember it again.
"What...what do I want to say?"
Xiaoqi closed her eyes and tried to remember, but she couldn't remember anything. Only the memory of him going to this island became clearer.
"Don't worry, you will know it when it's time to know."
Hearing Brother Wang say this again, Xiao Qi immediately felt much better and no longer forced herself to recall.
After a while, Jiang Beiran looked at Xiao Qi who was gradually relaxing and asked, "Have you recovered?"
"Thank you, Brother Wang, for your concern. It's much better."
"Let's go to the next place."
…
Since the first place he found was correct, it meant that Jiang Beiran had indeed understood this mountain range, so he didn't fail every time he went to the next place.
By evening, Xiao Qi had finished reading the ninth mysterious fragment.
Starting from the sixth piece just now, Xiao Qi no longer had any splitting headache when he saw the mysterious fragments, but only had an ever-changing expression.
Seeing Xiao Qi constantly feeling sad and happy, Jiang Beiran always felt like he was watching a movie.
Just like before, Xiao Qi forgot everything he just saw after coming back to his senses, but this time, Xiao Qi firmly raised his head and looked at Jiang Beiran and said.
"Brother Wang, there is a place I want to take you to see."
Glancing at Xiao Qi in surprise, Jiang Beiran asked, "Do you know this place completely?"
"Yeah." Xiao Qi nodded.
"Okay, lead the way."
After studying for so long, it is finally time to reap the rewards. It is impossible not to look forward to it. Jiang Beiran wants to quickly see what this secret that is hidden so deeply is.
In addition, Jiang Beiran felt that what happened this time was a little too mysterious.
From the current point of view, if you want to crack the secret of Jinding Island, you need to gather three elements. The first is a cultivation level below the Xuanhuang realm, so that you can land on the island.
The second is to have the special talent of the residents, because even if Jiang Beiran completely analyzed all the nodes on the island where the disk might be hidden, if there were no eyes of the residents to tell them where the disk was when they arrived at their destination,
They still can't see it.
The principle of this hiding technique is almost exactly the same as that of Minran. It is not hiding, but reducing one's sense of existence to zero. Once discovered, the disguise will be completely taken off.
Three is the most critical Xiaoqi.
This island is definitely inextricably related to him. Without him, Jiang Beiran believed that even if he cracked the island and saw all the mysterious disks, it would be useless.
Because before Xiao Qi appeared, this disk did not show anything special.
With so many coincidences colliding together, Jiang Beiran had reason to believe that this was definitely arranged secretly and clearly.
This made Jiang Beiran couldn't help but look up at the sky and wanted to ask.
'You arranged it?'
"Brother Wang, we're here."
When Jiang Beiran was thinking about how many coincidences there were in this incident, Xiao Qi stopped in front of a mountain wall and turned around, cupping his hands towards Jiang Beiran.
Jiang Beiran looked up and found that this was an ordinary mountain, nothing unusual about it.
"Please come this way." Xiaoqi said and stepped forward directly, then walked into the mountain under the surprised eyes of the residents.
That's right, I walked in directly. This mountain is just an illusion.
'Is it another formation?'
In doubt, Jiang Beiran also stepped into the mountain.
But just when the resident was about to follow him, he bumped into the mountain wall. He tried again, but it was still the same. The mountain wall had no intention of letting him in.
Jiangbei Ran, who was inside the mountain, saw that the residents had not come in. He was about to go back to take a look, but found that the way back had disappeared.
This made Jiang Beiran frown.
This place should not only target the residents, which means that there is a high probability that only Xiao Qi and him can come in.
It's no problem for Xiao Qi to come in. This island has a lot to do with him.
And it's strange that he can come in. Judging from the fact that the residents are isolated, this should be the "absolute realm" that only the protagonist can enter.
‘Is this being involved in Xiao Qi’s main storyline again…’
"Brother Wang, why didn't he come in?" Xiao Qi asked doubtfully at this time.
"I shouldn't have come in in the first place, let's go."
Brother Wang's words made Xiao Qi stunned for a moment, but he soon understood.
Everything that happened just now points to one thing, that is, this island is only related to him, especially this secret room, which is a very important place.
It turns out that he should have faced all this by himself, but Brother Wang obviously followed him in because he was worried about him.
'Brother Wang...'
Looking at Brother Wang's back, Xiao Qi was deeply moved.
'My hunch is never wrong, this is the best and most wonderful big brother in the world!'
With a sigh in her heart, Xiao Qi quickly caught up with Brother Wang.
Walking on the dark path in front of him, Jiang Beiran checked his surroundings with his mental strength, but found nothing else, so he had no choice but to keep walking down the road.
Fortunately, the road was not long, and Jiang Beiran soon came to a huge bronze door.
"Open it." Jiang Beiran said.
Since Xiao Qi found this secret room, Jiang Beiran thought it would be better not to touch it too much and try to be a bystander.
"yes."
In response, Xiao Qi stepped forward and pressed his hand on the bronze door.
Then there was only a dull sound of metal collision, and the knocker on the bronze door suddenly burst into a burst of golden light.
As the golden light grew stronger and stronger, Xiao Qi slowly floated up, stretched out his hands and grabbed the two luminous door knockers.
Pull it down hard, and after hearing a rolling sound, the bronze door slowly opens.
There was no wind, and there was no musty smell. When the bronze door slowly opened, it revealed a dilapidated palace, but it could still be faintly seen that this place had once been glorious.
Xiao Qi, who opened the door, slowly fell back to the ground, made an invitation gesture to Brother Wang and said: "Brother Wang, you..."
Before Xiao Qi could finish speaking, Jiang Beiran spoke first: "You go ahead."
"yes."
Xiao Qi nodded and walked directly inside.
The main hall of the palace is as high as three or four stories. The utensils and decorations inside are covered with a kind of black vines, making it look lifeless.
Xiao Qi shook his head and replied: "From the first time I saw that mysterious disk, this palace has appeared in my memory, but the palace in my memory is much more glorious than it is now. I will see more mysterious disks later.
After the market closed, this memory gradually became clear, until I remembered where the way in was."
When he realized that Xiao Qi didn't know why he came to this palace, Jiang Beiran started to look around. Just as he was about to speak, he heard a creepy maniacal laughter coming from the underground.
"Hahahahaha! Here you go! You're finally here! I've been waiting for you for a long time! Hahahahaha!"
