Chapter 1187: Formation
In fact, there is no need for Puyol to say, Xia Ruofei basically had the answer in his heart when he saw the waterhole for the first time.
He said lightly, "Very well, Puyol, you have completed your mission, now you can go back...... It's a reward for you!"
After speaking, Xia Ruofei took out a bunch of biscuits, bread, cola and other food and drinks from his backpack, and even gave two packs of cigarettes.
He said excitedly, "Thank you, thank you, Lord Immortal......."
Puyol hurriedly packed all the things Xia Ruofei had rewarded into his backpack, and he carefully put the two packs of cigarettes into his pockets as if he were carrying two peerless diamonds.
Xia Ruofei said lightly: "By the way, before I go back, I don't want anyone to appear within a radius of five hundred meters from this waterhole, including yourself." ”
Pujol hurriedly said: "Understood! Understood! Please rest assured Immortal Lord! Even if you let us come, we won't dare to come! After I go back, I will restrain my subordinates and let them stop entering the mountains and forests to hunt without your order from the Immortal Lord!"
Xia Ruofei didn't want to be disturbed by others, so he just drew a forbidden area with the waterhole as the center and a radius of 500 meters, while Puyol directly sealed the entire mountain forest, and Xia Ruofei was of course happy to be quiet.
He nodded with satisfaction and said, "Well, then you can go back first!"
Puyol didn't want to stay here for a long time, and he always had a feeling of horror at the edge of this silent waterhole.
After Xia Ruofei spoke, he was pardoned, and after turning around and walking two steps, he turned around and said carefully: "Immortal Lord, please also pay attention to safety, that python is really terrifying, if it is not necessary, don't provoke it......"
Puyol also had a hint of fantasy, hoping that this time the "fairy lord" would be able to take him out of this desert island and return to human society.
It's a lot more important than those cookies and drinks in your backpack.
If the "Immortal Lord" accidentally died in the belly of the snake, wouldn't his glimmer of hope be disappointed.
Xia Ruofei smiled faintly and said, "I know, thank you for reminding me!" Puyol, it's time for you to leave......
Although Xia Ruofei's tone was gentle, Puyol was shocked in his heart, and hurriedly said, "Yes! Yes!"
Then he hurriedly turned around and burrowed into the forest, and soon moved away from the area, and made rapid progress in the direction of the camp, not daring to turn back.
Xia Ruofei's spiritual power has always been radiating - next she needs to get close to the waterhole to observe the formation enchantment up close, and even need to make some attempts, naturally to prevent this Puyol from killing a horse pistol and sneaking aside to peep, although this possibility is extremely low.
After confirming that Puyol was really headless and didn't dare to leave, Xia Ruofei didn't immediately approach the waterhole.
He directly took out some jade and other formation materials from the Lingtu space, and arranged some vigilant formations within a radius of about ten meters around this waterhole, once the formation was touched, he could detect it immediately.
There is not even the sound of insects chirping in this vicinity, Xia Ruofei has also carefully probed with his spiritual power just now, it is indeed a dead silence, not even insects, let alone hares, foxes and other animals, so if the formation is touched, it is basically those survivors in the camp who have broken in.
After arranging the realm formation, Xia Ruofei carried his backpack in one hand and carefully approached the waterhole step by step.
Walking to a position two or three meters away from the edge of the waterhole, Xia Ruofei casually threw his backpack on the ground, and then maintained a state of vigilance with his mental power at all times, and his true qi also operated his whole body according to the essentials of "Great Dao Decision", and continued to move forward cautiously.
In this state, once there is any danger, Xia Ruofei can react in time and burst out with the strongest attack as soon as possible.
In fact, when Xia Ruofei's spiritual power probed in the direction of the waterhole, he had already found something different—when he was within one meter of the waterhole, his spiritual power encountered an invisible obstacle and could not penetrate it at all.
Observing with the naked eye, it is clear that there is nothing, and the situation of that waterhole is also unobstructed, but it is the spiritual power that is difficult to block by material obstacles, but it is impossible to break into it at all.
If Xia Ruofei closed his eyes and looked at it completely with his spiritual power, he would not be able to find the waterhole at all, and would only sense that there was a blind spot in that direction.
This situation is very weird, but it is also expected by Xia Ruofei.
He walked over to the invisible barrier and tried to reach out.
A soft resistance came, and Xia Ruofei's palm couldn't move forward at all.
He infused his true qi into his arm, gradually increasing his strength.
The invisible resistance was also increasing, and in the case of using True Qi, such a force could even push a truck, but in the face of this invisible resistance, it had no effect.
This kind of resistance is a bit like a water wave, not rigid at all, but full of toughness, no matter how much strength Xia Ruofei uses, the formation enchantment is at most a trace of inward depression, and when Xia Ruofei's hand is taken away, it immediately returns to its original state.
Xia Ruofei is no stranger to this situation - in the cave of the Lingtu space, there are several such protective barriers, and his herringbone jade talisman and ground character jade talisman are all taken out of the enchantment.
And the method of breaking the barrier is not complicated, to put it bluntly, it is to break the law with force.
Today, he plans to try it in the same way.
Xia Ruofei secretly gritted his teeth, and the speed of the true qi in his whole body suddenly accelerated, and then he was in a lunge posture, the muscles of his whole body tensed for a moment, and all the power was concentrated on his right fist, and after a loud shout, his fist swung and smashed towards the invisible enchantment.
This punch almost condensed Xia Ruofei's greatest strength, and even made a sound of breaking the air.
The fist smashed on the invisible enchantment, and Xia Ruofei clearly felt that the entire enchantment was sinking in.
However, before Xia Ruofei could show an excited look, the enchantment emitted a light visible to the naked eye, and then Xia Ruofei felt a huge rebound force coming, and the whole person was bounced away by this countershock force.
Xia Ruofei slammed into a tree with a dull sound.
The pain in his back came second, Xia Ruofei's right fist was even more like a bone was about to crack, and his entire right arm couldn't help but tremble slightly.
Xia Ruofei couldn't help but gasp.
He shook his fist, and it took him a long time to regain consciousness.
In fact, when the rebound force came, Xia Ruofei realized that he had done something stupid.
Although in the space cave, he broke the small enchantment by force, but it was not broken by force in this way, but mainly relied on spiritual power to mobilize the invisible power of space, and constantly increased the strength, and finally broke it.
The toughness of this enchantment is very strong, and it can't be broken by instantaneous explosive power.
Although there is no spatial invisible power to call in the outside world, Xia Ruofei can only rely on true qi to crack it, but he should also not choose to concentrate the strength of his whole body to burst out instantly.
However, judging from the situation just now, even if you gradually increase your strength, it will be difficult to break this barrier.
Xia Ruofei couldn't help but make a difficulty.
I knew that there was a very high possibility that there would be a boundary stone in this pool, and there might be other opportunities, but I could only watch and couldn't enter at all.
He pondered for a long time, and finally came up with a possibility - Puyol had accidentally stumbled into the range of the barrier by one or two steps, which indicated that the barrier might have been damaged to a certain extent due to the passage of time.
Then, if you find the damaged location where Puyol entered the enchantment range back then, maybe the difficulty will be reduced a lot.
Thinking of this, Xia Ruofei had motivation again.
He immediately took action, trying little by little along the invisible barrier within a meter of the waterhole.
The sky is gradually getting dark, Xia Ruofei has been trying by this waterhole for more than two hours, although there is no gain for the time being, he has enough patience.
Puyol was just an ordinary person who could walk in a step or two, and as a cultivator of the 6th level of Qi refining, there was no reason why he was not as good as Puyol.
Unless this formation enchantment still has a self-healing function.
This is extremely unlikely, and is basically negligible, because if the barrier could repair itself, Puyol would not have been able to walk in so coincidentally.
Finally, after two and a half hours of trying, inch by inch, Xia Ruofei found a position where the enchantment energy was significantly weaker.
In fact, it was only a matter of time before he found this position, Xia Ruofei was not very lucky, so it took so long.
When he felt his spiritual power probe over, the resistance of the enchantment at a certain position was significantly reduced, and he knew that this was the location where Puyol had accidentally entered the waterhole back then.
Xia Ruofei perked up, and hurriedly controlled his mental power through this gap.
The next moment, he suddenly sensed a chill, as if even his spiritual power could freeze.
Of course, this feeling will not be very comfortable, Xia Ruofei endured this discomfort and swept through the formation with his spiritual power.
The pool of turquoise water didn't seem to be anything special except that it was cooler.
However, Xia Ruofei still had a great harvest - he sensed many complex formations, and they were depicted on the edge of the waterhole, and the waterhole was the center of these formations, and all the formations were finally attributed to the waterhole.
Xia Ruofei's current formation cultivation has improved greatly, especially after spending time studying the knowledge of the formation path, and at the same time, he has recently processed a large number of basic materials for refining spirit puppets, and has carved countless formation patterns, and the formation path cultivation has also continued to improve.
Although Xia Ruofei had never seen the formation by this waterhole, he could still deduce the general principle of this formation through the patterns he had detected.
One of the formations, often the more you study, the more you feel that you lack knowledge of formations.
This broad and profound knowledge, Xia Ruofei has only mastered some of the surface. However, most of what he mastered was the knowledge of basic formations, so even if the formation he saw today was very complicated, he could still try to analyze it from the most basic formation composition.
In fact, every formation, no matter how complicated it was, was disassembled and crumpled, and it was composed of countless basic formations, including the internal formation of the spirit puppet that Xia Ruofei had not been able to complete for the time being.
When he sensed the formation pattern, Xia Ruofei quickly immersed himself in it, and he was not in a hurry to try to use his true qi to "violently destroy".
Because he took into account the terrible python that Pujol said, from Puyol's description, Xia Ruofei had no way to judge the strength of the python, but it was certain that this python could not leave the range of the formation. And once the formation barrier is really broken with brute force, this python may be able to get rid of the shackles of the formation.
If the strength of the python is generally good, if even Xia Ruofei is not an opponent, such a terrifying monster is released, and the survivors on this small island will have absolutely no hope of survival.
And Xia Ruofei can only escape by taking the road, and don't want to covet the opportunity of this waterhole anymore.
On the contrary, if you enter the enchantment by analyzing the principle of the formation, once you lose the python, Xia Ruofei still has a way to retreat, as long as you retreat outside the range of the enchantment as soon as possible, you will basically be safe.
After making up his mind, Xia Ruofei was not in a hurry, he simply sat down by the enchantment, and his spiritual power continued to probe the situation of the formation through a small crack in the broken enchantment, and at the same time, he also sketched the detected formation in his mind, and began to deduce.
Xia Ruofei entered a very focused state, and a solid foundation of the formation path became his greatest help.
"The combination of the basic trapped formation and the protective formation can actually produce such an effect?"
"This formation pattern is very special, it seems to be able to connect several small basic formations!"
"Why is there a combination of two formations with completely opposite attributes, and the degree of fusion is still so high?"
......
Xia Ruofei was talking to himself while analyzing, and sometimes he gestured with his fingers in the void.
In a state of concentration, he has no concept of the passage of time.
The sky was already completely dark, especially in the mountains and forests, and it was even darker.
Through the gaps in the leaves, a full moon hung high in the sky.
Xia Ruofei didn't realize this, let alone realized that the moon seemed to be quite round today......
Time passed minute by minute, Xia Ruofei sat motionless on the ground like a clay statue.
He had been in this state for a long time, and at first he would use his fingers to draw various formations in the void, and then he didn't even move his fingers, and just sat quietly.
As the night passed, the sun leapt out of the sea, and rays of sunlight began to shine in the mountains and forests. Xia Ruofei still sat motionless.
Throughout the day, Xia Ruofei didn't move, he was already completely immersed in the vast and profound formation.
The sun rises and sets, and Xia Ruofei's second night on the island soon came.
Xia Ruofei, who had been sitting for more than ten hours, first raised his eyelids, revealing a look of surprise.
"I understand!" Xia Ruofei couldn't help but wave his fist and said excitedly, "It turns out that the research direction was fundamentally wrong at the beginning! The two sets of formations that are like twin sisters are the core and key to the entire formation!"
