Regarding formations, Ji Tianxing has been involved in them since he was a child and is no stranger to this.
The Ji family is a family of forging weapons, and formations are used in the weapons and equipment they forge.
Ji Tianxing broke into the forbidden area of the family before and saw with his own eyes the barrier formation arranged by the ancestor of the Ji family.
Therefore, he has quite a bit of experience in setting up and breaking formations.
He stood on the edge of the formation, calmly observing the ground and the sixteen bronze puppets, looking for a way to break the formation.
The ground is paved with thousands of black stone slabs. It is flat and neat, and there is nothing unusual about it.
There was no clue about the chessboard-like ground for the time being, so he focused all his attention on the bronze puppet.
After observing carefully for a while, he discovered some patterns.
The sixteen bronze puppets are basically similar in appearance, but the weapons in their hands are different.
Moreover, their attack range is five meters, and you will be attacked as long as you step into this range.
They move back and forth on the 'chessboard', and although they seem chaotic, they actually imply a certain pattern.
The most important thing is that Ji Tianxing discovered that each bronze puppet has a bronze heart mirror on its chest.
Each breast shield has a word engraved on it!
Some are engraved with gold characters, some are with wood characters, and some are with water, fire and earth characters.
In addition to the five characters of metal, wood, water, fire and earth, there are also several puppets with engraved words on their heart mirrors: heaven, earth and people.
Ji Tianxing frowned and thought seriously.
He vaguely felt that the words on the breast mirror might be the key to breaking the formation.
"Heaven, earth, human beings, metal, wood, water, fire and earth, a total of eight characters."
"There are sixteen bronze puppets here, and every two puppets have the same character... Is there any mystery in this?"
Therefore, Ji Tianxing focused on observing the movement routes of those bronze puppets.
It didn't take long for him to discover an interesting phenomenon.
A bronze puppet with the word "gold" on its chest was walking aimlessly on the "chessboard".
A puppet with the word "天" on its chest came towards me, passed by the puppet with the word "金", and continued walking.
However, when the puppet with the word "gold" met another puppet with the word "gold", they both turned around and walked back at the same time.
Seeing this scene, Ji Tianxing couldn't help but frown and thought silently.
"There is no connection between gold and heaven, so these two puppets passed by without any reaction."
"However, two puppets with the same golden characters will not meet each other. If they meet head-on, they will turn around and leave?"
"Does it mean that puppets with the same name cannot stay together?"
This thought came to his mind, and he stared at the puppets and continued to observe.
Not long after, the puppet with the character "天" also encountered another puppet with the character "天".
The result was just as Ji Tianxing guessed, when the two puppets with the character "天" were about to meet, they both immediately turned around and walked back.
This discovery shocked him and revealed a playful smile.
"So that's the case. There is indeed a pattern."
"I just don't know what will happen if two puppets with the same word come together?"
Ji Tianxing was a little eager to try, so he stepped into the formation again and ran towards the front.
At this time, the bronze puppet on the left was walking towards the middle, quickly closing the distance with him.
On the breastplate of this bronze puppet, there is a word "water".
When Ji Tianxing rushed eight meters away, he was just five meters away from it.
The bronze puppet immediately accelerated and rushed over, waving its spear and stabbing him hard.
"call out!"
The force of the spear's assassination was extremely high and its speed was incredibly fast. It actually made a sharp sound of breaking through the air.
Ji Tianxing didn't get entangled with it at all, and ran forward without stopping at all.
The water-shaped puppet immediately chased after him, and a pair of big bronze feet stepped on the stone slab, making a dull sound of "bang bang bang".
Although Ji Tianxing was running away with all his strength to avoid being chased by the water puppet.
But his eyes were fixed on another puppet not far away. There was also a word "water" on the breastplate of that puppet.
He just wanted to take a chance and try it out. What would happen if two puppets with the same words came together?
Seeing that the water-shaped puppet behind him was about to catch up with him, he brandished his spear and stabbed him again.
At the critical moment, he accelerated and fled with all his strength, heading straight for the water-shaped puppet in front of him.
When he was only five meters away from the water-shaped puppet, the puppet also accelerated and rushed over, wielding a huge meteor hammer and launched an attack.
Ji Tianxing was attacked from the front and back by two water-shaped puppets, and he was immediately in danger. If he was not careful, he would be seriously injured.
However, the two puppets were still ten meters apart, and he couldn't dodge them yet.
His expression became solemn and he made up his mind instantly.
"Sword Control Technique!"
He activated four sword qi, held the sword art with both hands to control the sword qi, and condensed a sword net of flowing light to protect himself.
"Deng Deng Deng!"
Amidst the sound of heavy footsteps, the two water-shaped puppets rushed towards him fiercely, raised their spears and bolas high, and smashed them down at him.
At this time, the two water puppets were still six meters apart.
The spear and meteor hammer struck down at the same time, hitting the flowing light sword net hard.
"Ding ding ding!"
A crisp sound of gold and iron clashed, the flowing light sword net was smashed into pieces, and the sword energy burst out in all directions.
When Ji Tianxing saw that the distance between the two puppets was only four meters, a light suddenly flashed in his eyes.
"It's now!"
He shouted in his heart and immediately jumped three meters back, dodging the spear and meteor hammer by just a hair.
"Bang!"
The two water-character puppets charged so fast that they could not stop. They immediately collided head-on with a muffled sound.
A surprising scene appeared.
After the two water puppets collided, they were not bounced away by the force of the shock, and actually disappeared at the same time with a "swish"!
Ji Tianxing fell to the ground three meters away, staring at this incredible scene with wide eyes, and suddenly smiled.
"After two puppets with the same words collided, they disappeared at the same time!"
"That's it! This is the way to crack the phantom weapon array!"
He was in high spirits and talking to himself excitedly.
At the same time, two more bronze puppets approached him and broke through the five-meter attack range.
The two bronze puppets immediately accelerated and rushed towards him, swinging their heavy swords and halberds to kill him.
Ji Tianxing found a way to break the formation, and of course he was not afraid of the two puppets' siege.
He saw that the two puppets' breast mirrors were engraved with the characters fire and earth respectively.
So, he found another puppet with earth characters printed on it and rushed over as quickly as possible.
After a short moment, the two puppets caught up with him and launched an extremely violent attack.
The other earth-character puppet was also alerted and rushed over with a quick blast.
Ji Tianxing was surrounded by three puppets, but he did not panic.
He repeated his old trick and cleverly narrowed the distance between the two earth-character puppets.
Then, with a muffled sound of "bang", the two earth-character puppets collided head-on and disappeared on the spot.
