"The city has indeed come to life, and it is even more magical and strange and dangerous than we imagined. ”

Ying Xingtian, who was standing on the long street, looked at the starry lights in the distance, as well as the blue points of light that kept emerging from various formations and galloped away in a certain direction, and turned his head to look at the people behind him: "The location where Lao Yan and a few of you were teleported over just now is outside the city?"

Niu Shuxiong and Zheng Changlin nodded at the same time: "There is also a square outside the city wall, which seems to have been used by the garrison garrison for ordinary exercises and drills, and it was in that place that we were first teleported in." ”

"Brother Haichao, you already have a deep understanding of the formation, can you put that teleportation array in reverse again?"

Ou Haichao, who was named by name, rubbed his nose, grabbed out and put the fennel beans into his mouth, and even said something a little slurred: "There is no problem with rearranging, that formation should be able to start smoothly with the Yellow Emperor bloodline of Little Brother Ji and some energy gems." It's just that it's hard to know exactly where the teleportation will appear. ”

"The temporary arrangement formation is definitely not as good as the one-way teleportation array that has been measured before, and if you don't teleport out and get caught in the mountain wall, it will be a big trouble. ”

Ying Xingtian pondered for a moment, and could only dispel the idea of sending some people away first.

"From now on, everyone is all gathered together, and there is no need to search for surrounding buildings and formations. ”

"This city has become more dangerous than when we first entered, although we don't know what is behind it...... It can bring the whole city to life, but then maybe every street and every building we walk will be attacked by the enemy. ”

The rest of the crowd looked around with some palpitations, and he always felt that there might be a deadly attack hidden in the closed gates.

"What kind of secrets are hidden in the Wumen Zhongxing thousands of years ago, the 300-year history of the Jin Dynasty and the Jurchens of the Qing Dynasty after 500 years. ”

While leading everyone towards the point of light, Ying Xingtian discussed with Ji Yiming and Ji Daoyan in a low voice: "I always feel that with this architectural style, even if it was originally built by the Wudao masters in the Zhongxing era of Wumen, it must have been transformed in the pre-Qing Dynasty. Otherwise, this architectural style would never have appeared in the Jin Dynasty five hundred years earlier for no reason. The question is why did the Wumen, who had gone through that period of the era of overturning the world, become an ordinary member of the cultivator force again for no reason...... History may be the key to the secret of the whole city. ”

"The Manchus of the Qing Dynasty have always called themselves Jurchens, and have always relied on their own history to complete the Yan Agu fight, in addition to tracing the roots in a political sense, is it also related to the mystery of the Zhongxing of Wumen?"

Ji Yiming said this, and the eyes of Ying Xingtian and Ji Daoyan next to him were slightly bright, and there was a little thought in his eyes.

After a moment of silence, the two of them spoke in unison

"It's possible!"

Indeed, the deep obsession of satisfying the clansmen with the self-proclaimed virgin has always puzzled the historiography community. If it involves the secret of the Wumen Zhongxing and is related to the cultivation world of that era, everything is not difficult to explain. ”

As a professor of the Department of History of Hanzhong University, although Ji Daoyan specializes in Tang history, he naturally has a deep study of Qing history.

But that's all for later. Ying Xingtian didn't have the heart to spend too much time on it, but just followed the pale blue light dots that "flowed" all over the city to somewhere in the city: the most important thing at the moment was to find that guy.

"As long as you find him, all the answers will be solved. ”

As the whole team was advancing, the wooden doors of the surrounding buildings were occasionally closed, and the Dan furnace-shaped street lamps trembled slightly from time to time, and indeed the entire city was "alive" as Ying Xingtian said, and they were observing them in countless ways that could not be guarded against.

……

……

The middle-aged man, who had changed from a pale cyan energy body to a physical body, did not continue to stay on the street at this moment.

He sat cross-legged on the second floor of a small house, with a simple formation improvised under his buttocks, his body not moving at all, but the muscles on his face were trembling slightly...... It seems to be in great pain.

"Is it really too reluctant?" he shook his head slightly, and pressed his fingers into the formation below: "Activating the Ancestral Witch Great Array so long in advance, the energy collected is at least forty percent. With my accumulation over the years, I can only last less than half an hour at most. If you can't handle this group of guys in half an hour, you can only use that one trick......"

He looked sideways for a moment, then suddenly stood up and walked to one of the walls of the room, and reached out and pressed a few times on one of the reliefs on the wall.

With the sound of clattering mechanisms, the seemingly seamless wall quickly recessed, and a pure black bronze statue the size of a fist appeared in the groove.

The idol was similar to the other buildings in the city, holding a sword, a spear, a sword, and a halberd on one arm.

The only difference is that there are four songs on the body, not three.

On the four prescription positions in the south, east, west, and north, each face is carved with four complete expressions of "rage", "ecstasy", "sorrow" and "fear".

The figure took the idol out and hesitated for a moment before placing it in the place it had done before.

The very center of that simple formation.

"The Ancestral Witch Formation can allow the entire Witch City to exert an ability beyond the imagination of cultivators. I don't know if you, the juniors of the Hidden Dragon Abyss, can walk here unscathed and find 'it' smoothly. ”

After arranging everything, a strange smile flashed in the middle-aged man's eyes, and after turning over and going downstairs, his figure twisted a few times on the narrow street next to him, and soon disappeared completely.

And as the four god statues were placed in the center of the simple formation, the small blue light spots that appeared on the countless formations in the entire city also changed from the body of the middle-aged man who was constantly throwing themselves into it, to flying towards it.

In just a few tens of seconds, the pure black bronze statue was covered with light blue starry light.

It's just that these points of light merge into the body of the idol, but they are like the light absorbed by a black hole, and they disappear completely after burrowing into the body, without provoking even the slightest reaction.

"Witch Dao...... Evergreen. ”

After a few moments, four mouths on the four heads spoke at the same time.

The voices of the larger idols were much clearer than those scattered throughout the rest of the city. It's just that there is no ancestral witch phantom behind it, only four happy and sad faces, flashing with strange colors.

On the other side, there are seven bronze statues remaining.

At this moment, it has also become like the one that Yingxing Tianji Yiming and others found out, and the rust is mottled and almost broken.

The phantoms of the ancestral witches floating behind him disappeared without a trace.

……

……

"Something doesn't seem right. ”

"Do you feel it, there seems to be something just now...... There was a flash from behind us. ”

Following Ying Xingtian towards the direction of the flow of blue light points, the atmosphere in the entire team did not know when it became more and more depressing.

In the "live" city, everyone felt that every place they passed by seemed to have countless pairs of eyes watching them from the surrounding buildings, streets, and countless formations.

The sudden yin wind, the light and shadow that occasionally passes by and disappears in an instant.

- There was even the same whispering sound that Ou Haichao had heard in the dome building before, and it kept ringing in everyone's ears.

Although because of the abundant light, the powerful qi and blood condensed by so many martial artists gathered together naturally restrained evil spirits, and they would not be deprived of their five senses and fall into extreme fear like Ou Haichao did at that time, but everyone still inevitably began to feel a stronger and stronger sense of uneasiness in their hearts.

"Can you find the source of the voice?" Ying Xingtian always paid attention to the surrounding situation, but he didn't notice where the whispering that sounded in everyone's ears came from.

Unlike others.

Even Dao Sect Masters like Ji Daoyan and Ou Haichao, as well as Ying Xingtian, a top martial arts master whose qi and blood are so powerful that they are incomparable, are a little affected by this ubiquitous voice.

However, Ji Yiming, who has the lowest strength realm among all and has not been a formal martial arts practitioner for a few days, has never felt any negative emotions.

No fear, no restlessness.

The warm and rising inner breath of "Taiyi Longevity Formula" naturally flowed along the mental route in the meridians, and he didn't need to take the initiative at all, so he directly blocked the weird effect caused by the strange whispering voice.

He was even able to concentrate his mind and consciously distinguish the different words used in each sentence, trying to memorize the pronunciation of a few of the words that appeared most frequently.

It's just a pity that even the magical spiritual sense of "Taiyi Longevity" can't find the source of these whispers: "Although it seems to spread naturally in the air, it is the same strength in any direction." And these sounds should have nothing to do with energy, physical objects, in psychic induction...... They don't seem to exist. ”

Ying Xingtian frowned slightly, looked at the members of the Hidden Dragon Yuan behind him who gradually began to become agitated, and then turned to look at somewhere on the north side of the road.

Nothing.

This gate opened in the building, and just now he swept the corner of his eye and saw a glorious phantom flashing rapidly, but with his top grandmaster realm eyesight and speed, he still didn't find any trace.

It was a low, low, bungalow teahouse, with an open door and nothing but tables and chairs, and counters. Under the eyes of Yingxing Tianru, there is nothing to hide in it.

And this has happened more than three or four times along the way!

He turned his inquiring gaze to Ji Yiming.

The latter also shook his head slightly, indicating that he had found nothing.

Although this "lively" city has not launched any substantive attacks so far, just such a disturbing light and shadow and chaotic sound from time to time are enough to make people almost lose their normal judgment and response ability.

If there really is an army of cultivators hiding in it, waiting for an opportunity to attack.

The consequences are unimaginable.

"Wait a minute, what's that?!"

Before Ying Xingtian turned around, Ji Yiming finally moved slightly, and found the real physical trace for the first time.

— in a narrow cul-de-sac a few dozen meters from where everyone was.

There was a phantom more than two meters high, suspended less than half a meter above the ground, watching them quietly.
