"Childe, are you really already at the third order of the astral realm?"

Tao Yuyan couldn't help but ask out loud.

"Yes. ”

Ji Fan smiled and nodded.

It's just that he smiled with a gray face, and his smile was really flattering.

He really wasn't lying, he was indeed a third-order cultivator of the Star Body Realm.

At the beginning of his cultivation, he quickly and smoothly advanced to the Star Body Realm, and later he spent so many low-grade Star Crystals, so naturally it would not be just the first order of the Star Body Realm.

Because of the help of the Blood Lotus Lotus Seed, he unscrupulously absorbed the power of the stars in the star crystal, constantly imprinting star patterns on his skin, and of course his cultivation speed could not slow down.

You must know that at the moment before the enemy invaded this cave, he was still cultivating with star crystals, and at this time it was already close to noon the next day.

"Brother Ji Fan, you are too violent, you actually used up one hundred and fifty low-grade star crystals!"

After Qu Yu counted it carefully, he exclaimed, and when he looked at Ji Fan again, it was like looking at a real monster.

Ji Fan had already squatted down and took off the storage bag on the waist of the dead enemy.

The enemy was dead, and the storage bag became ownerless, and Ji Fan bit his fingertips and dripped a few drops of blood on it, making him recognize him as his new master.

Flipping through the mouth of the bag, he, as the owner, can easily see everything in the storage bag.

There is a lot of space in this storage bag, the length and width are three zhang, and the height is more than four zhang, so it is no problem to fit a small building inside.

In the storage bag, there are two piles of large and small star crystals, the large pile is the lower grade star crystal, about 3,000 pieces, and the small pile is the middle grade star crystal, which also has the appearance of more than 100 pieces.

These star crystals should have been obtained by the group of monks in the waterhole cave.

Ji Fan and the three of them were able to pick up more than two hundred star crystals in the stream, and the group of monks with more than thirty naturally gained even more.

In addition to the two stacks of star crystals, all that was left in the storage bag was a thick pile of changing clothes, two long-looking knives of high quality, and a golden brand.

As soon as Ji Fan's mind moved, the gold medal flew out of the storage bag.

The front of the gold medal is engraved with four big characters of "Shi Family Yongchang" and nine small characters of "Shi Yuanhong of the 300th generation".

"This Shi family has been passed down to three hundred generations in an orderly manner, it can be called a thousand-year-old family, it should be the Shi family in Miaoxiang King City, no wonder the young disciples in the clan can come in with storage bags. ”

After Ji Fan took a look, he threw the golden identity token into the rubble.

"With a storage bag, we finally don't have to carry large bags and small bags!"

Qu Yu looked at the storage bag in Ji Fan's hand, although he was also very greedy, he knew very well that he couldn't be greedy for such treasures.

Ji Fan drove the storage bag with his heart and put away the three large packages containing star crystals.

After that, he took out the two long knives in the storage bag and said, "This long knife is not made of mortal iron, although it is not a star weapon, but it is also very tough and extremely sharp, and it is also an excellent blade for us." ”

The two long knives were given to Qu Yu and Tao Yuyan respectively, and Ji Fan picked up the long knife in the hands of Shi Yuanhong, who had died.

Shi Yuanhong must have been worried that a long knife was very likely to be damaged, so he prepared two more, or he collected the blades of his dead companions.

Moved Shi Yuanhong's body to the depths of the cave, and the three of them blocked the entrance of the cave with gravel before starting today's trip.

Along the way, he found a water source, and Ji Fan also took a bath for himself, and changed into a pair of inner armor left by Shi Yuanhong in the storage bag, as well as a coat brought by Ji Fan himself.

By the time the night came, the three of them had reached the center of the deepest part of the Fog Hidden Forest.

It is getting closer and closer to the Flying Stone Desert, and they have not encountered too much danger, so it is said that the three of them should be very satisfied, but at this time, they are resting, and they are all very depressed.

"Brother Ji Fan, we were here an hour ago, why did we come back now?"

Looking at the surrounding peaks that were not very high, Qu Yu said with a puzzled expression.

"These peaks, both in height and location, and in appearance, are the same as what we have come across before. ”

Tao Yuyan was also puzzled, and said: "We have been walking in a straight line in the direction of the Flying Stone Desert, and it is said that we will not go backwards." ”

"It can't be two of these places, right?

Qu Yu took a large sip of water, and the puzzle on his face became more and more intense.

"It's not a coincidence, it's probably that we broke into a phantom array. ”

Ji Fan pointed to the stars in the night sky and said firmly: "The star map we see now is definitely different from the actual star map. ”

"Phantom Array?"

Qu Yu was surprised and said in surprise: "How can there be a phantom array here?"

"The cultivation of the star beasts here is not high, and they have been in the Jiuchen Secret Realm, so they can't learn the method of arranging the phantom array at all!"

Tao Yuyan thought for a while, and then added: "Most of the Terran monks who have entered here are Star Bone Realm cultivators, even those masters who have just advanced to the Star Body Realm don't have the ability to arrange a phantom array with such a large coverage, right?"

"It's not arranged by star beasts, nor is it arranged by alien Terran monks. ”

Ji Fan shook his head and explained: "Before this Jiuchen Secret Realm was discovered and controlled by the Star Sect, it was a separate world, and there were also some cultivators with extraordinary cultivation, and the phantom array here should have been arranged by them. ”

"There used to be indigenous monks here?"

Qu Yu looked incredulous and asked, "Where have all those indigenous monks gone?"

"The Nine Stars Secret Realm Star Sect has been in control for many years, and the indigenous monks here have long been wiped out by the Terran powerhouses of our Tianchen Continent. ”

Ji Fan had read countless books in his previous life, and one of them explained the Jiuchen Secret Realm in great detail.

"If that's the case, why don't the Pope's powerhouses sweep away the phantom array here?"

Qu Yu asked curiously.

"In this Jiuchen Secret Realm, there are actually many dangerous forbidden formations, and the reason why the Pope Sect's powerhouse keeps these dangers is probably to test us young people. ”

Ji Fan explained calmly: "The Star Sect let us in, not only to let us get benefits, but also to give us some experience. ”

"So what do we do now?"

Tao Yuyan asked sullenly.

"We haven't studied the way of the forbidden array at all, as long as this phantom array is a little more clever, I'm afraid we will be trapped in it all the time. ”

Qu Yu was not only depressed, but also worried, he also wanted to go to the Nine Star Islands in Duckweed Bay to have a look, but he didn't want to stay here forever.

"I have studied the formation technique once, and I am interested in deducing a way out. ”

Ji Fan looked at the night sky again, pointed to those stars and said: "Everyone knows that in this foggy forest, we can only rely on the star map to judge the direction, if the star map is blinded and tampered with, we will lose our way, so we can only deduce from the star map." ”

"It's up to you. ”

Qu Yu had never studied the way of formation, and although he understood what Ji Fan meant, he also knew that he couldn't provide the slightest help at all.

Tao Yuyan didn't speak again, but sighed in her heart, this Ji Gongzi is less and less like a young master who is not welcomed in a small family.

After resting for half an hour, the three of them did not go to meditate and cultivate, but continued to walk between several small peaks.

This walk, Qu Yu and Tao Yuyan led the way, while Ji Fan kept staring at the stars in the night sky.

As he expected, as the three of them moved, the star map, which was supposed to be unchanged, changed somewhat.

Because there are too many stars in the night sky, and their changes are so small that they are easily ignored by people, it will achieve the effect of confusing people's judgment.

By observing the small changes in the star map, it is necessary to memorize the positions of many stars and the changes in their positions, which requires a high level of memory from the monks.

Memory, in fact, can also reflect the soul realm of a monk.

The higher the soul realm, the stronger the memory will naturally be.

Since Ji Fan had awakened the Star Soul, and it was a Double Star Soul, his soul realm was obviously not low, and ordinary Star Body Realm cultivators could not compare with him in the soul realm, but even if it was him, it was difficult to clearly remember the location of so many stars.

Don't say that it is difficult to remember, even if you can really remember it, you still need to grasp the law from the changes in the position of countless stars, which is even more difficult.

However, Ji Fan was not an ordinary person after all, he knew that he didn't need to break this phantom array, he just needed to take everyone out, so he just carefully noted down the position changes of a few stars, and then carefully deduced.

He also knew very well that with his current realm cultivation alone, even if he could get out of this phantom array, it would take four or five days to say the least.

The night passes, and the day comes.

The stars faded, and there were only those two sun stars in the sky.

The two solar stars were also affected by the Phantom Array, and they used small changes in position to confuse the people in the Phantom Array.

These two sun stars are easier to observe than the stars, and they are the key to Ji Fan's deduced path.

Another day passed, and the three of them were still in the phantom array, but they had gained a lot.

Between these small peaks, although they are shrouded in a phantom array, there are many star essences growing in them, and star fruits and star grass can often be seen.

In addition to many star essences, the three of them also found caves, some of which were inhabited by star beasts, and some of which allowed the three of them to see piles of dry bones.

From the form of those dry bones, it can be seen that they were left behind by Terran monks, and they are some years old.

It seems that many people have been trapped and died here before.

The Jiuchen Secret Realm is only open for a month at a time, and when the time comes, a spatial passage will appear in the mid-air of the secret realm world every other time that is not too far away, and everyone must leave quickly, otherwise they will die inside.

It is said that except for the opening time of that month, the environment of the Jiuchen Secret Realm will become extremely harsh, and this harshness is only for foreign Terran monks.

Ordinary people don't know how bad it is, everyone only knows that if you don't leave when the time comes, you will only die, without exception.

And Ji Fan knew why he would die if he didn't leave, because this was a separate world, and it also had its own natural laws, and the alien human monks couldn't adapt to it at all, and in the face of powerful natural laws, the low-level monks were of course powerless to resist. Peerless Star Soul
