Ten days later.

At 12 o'clock at noon on January 12, Room 1, 424th floor, Moonlight Building.

Tang Xiaosheng sat alone in a space chair, his brows furrowed slightly, looking at a complex structural diagram composed of five black dots and eight white dots on the light screen of a supercomputer, and quietly pondered.

For the past eleven years, he has tried his best to find the "strange energy", but all efforts have failed.

Every day, 70,000 soul monitors around the world collect a large amount of information and data about the destruction of souls by "strange energy", and members of the Moonlight Research Group also analyze this information.

Unfortunately, there is no pattern to this information, and every piece of information is different. From 2088 to the present, the Chrono Science and Technology City has received more than 200 million messages, and among the more than 200 million messages, there is no connection.

These days, Tang Xiaosheng began to have an idea in his heart, "Strange Energy" may not have a fixed form at all, it may be able to "change in a thousand ways", and there are countless forms. It is precisely because of the myriad forms of "strange energy" that the more than 200 million pieces of information about "strange energy" collected by the soul monitor will be completely different.

If that's the case, the problem is even more intractable. If the form of "strange energy" is endless, it is almost impossible to "catch" it.

"Strange Energy" is now like a clever soul "killer", as soon as the soul appears, the "strange energy" will immediately appear, and then destroy the soul in an instant. After destroying the soul, the "strange energy" will immediately flee the scene. Disappears into thin air, like a murderer on the run.

Due to the "strange energy" ability to escape, even if it appears hundreds of millions of times, humans still have no way to catch it, and only watch it disappear in an incredible way. As for how it disappeared and where it went, it became a mystery.

In the past 11 years, nearly 50 million researchers in the Chrono Science and Technology City have tried all kinds of ways to catch the "strange energy", but unfortunately, none of them are feasible.

It is precisely because it is simply impossible to retain the "strange energy". Thereupon. The scientific research team has not been able to unravel its true face.

Therefore, finding a way to "trap" the "strange energy" is the current research direction of the entire scientific research team, and it is also a problem that Tang Xiaosheng is thinking about now.

And today. He finally found an idea.

"Come on!"

Just thinking about it. Then. Suddenly, a sweet voice came from Tang Xiaosheng's thoughts, and he looked up. I saw that the little dragon girl was walking lightly into the room.

In addition to Xiaolongnu, Zhao Min, Ren Yingying, Xiao Zhao, Wang Yuyan, Dongfang Undefeated, Guo Xiang, Zixia and others also walked in together. More than a dozen of their beauties had just finished working in the scientific research room, and they were about to rest, but they saw that the light in Tang Xiaosheng's room was still on, so they came over to take a look.

"Come on, why haven't you rested yet? What are you thinking? Xiaolongnu and the others gathered around and looked at the computer light screen together.

I saw that there were five black dots and eight white dots on the light screen, and the black dots and white dots were intertwined with each other to form an extremely complex structural diagram.

After reading it, Bai Xiaoxiao's eyebrows moved slightly, and she asked puzzledly: "Official, what is this structure?" It looks a bit like the Five Elements Bagua Array, but it's a little different. ”

Tang Xiaosheng smiled and said, "The lady is really good eyesight, and she can see it at once." ”

Bai Xiaoxin was overjoyed, she liked to hear Tang Xiaosheng call her a lady the most.

After a pause, Tang Xiaosheng raised his head and said to the beauties, "Why are you all here?" As it happens, I have something I want to discuss with you. ”

Hearing this, all the beauties were curious and gathered around him.

Tang Xiaosheng pointed to the structure diagram with five black and eight white dots on the computer screen, and explained: "Just like Bai Xiaoxin's novel, this diagram is a bit like the Five Elements Bagua Array. However, this is my improved Five Elements Bagua Array, a new Five Elements Bagua Array, which I call the 'Great Five Elements Bagua Array'. ”

"'Great Five Elements Bagua Array'?" Zixia looked at the light screen, frowning slightly, "Supreme Treasure, what is this formation for?" ”

"It's here to arrest 'strange energy'."

Tang Xiaosheng said, "You all know that I have been trying to find the 'Strange Energy' for all these years, but unfortunately, I have not succeeded. Researchers have invented nearly a million devices, but they have not been able to capture the 'strange energy'. So far, there is only one thing that has been able to trap the 'Strange Energy'. ”

"What...... Oh, I got it. Bai Xiaoxiao said, "It's the Five Elements Bagua Array!" ”

"That's right, it's the Five Elements Bagua Array." Tang Xiaosheng said, "Back then, when Ah Zhu became a ghost, he was almost destroyed by 'strange energy'. Fortunately, she hid in the tomb of Nanfeng Mountain, and the Five Elements Bagua Array on the tomb helped her block the 'strange energy' and save her life. Since the Five Elements Bagua Array can block the 'Strange Energy', of course, it can also trap the 'Strange Energy'. ”

After a pause, Tang Xiaosheng continued, "It's a pity that the time for the 'Strange Energy' to appear was too short, and it disappeared in an instant, while it took a lot of time to activate the Five Elements Bagua Array. Before activating the Five Elements Bagua, the 'Strange Energy' had already escaped, and it was too late to trap it. In previous years, I tried several times and failed. Therefore, I have been thinking about how to activate the Five Elements Bagua Array faster for the past few years, hoping to be able to trap the 'Strange Energy' in time. ”

Bai Xiaoxiao pointed to the structure diagram on the computer light screen and said, "Official, this new Five Elements Bagua Array you designed is to speed up the activation of the Five Elements Bagua Array?" ”

Tang Xiaosheng nodded: "This new Five Elements Bagua Array is actually based on some improvements made to the Five Elements Bagua Array according to the Yin Clan's Multiverse Theory, mainly to optimize the structure, so as to reduce the time for the formation to be activated, and it can be activated in an instant. In this way, when the 'Strange Energy' appears, we will be able to activate this 'Great Five Elements Bagua Array' in an instant, thus trapping it. ”

There was a pause. added, "This 'Great Five Elements Bagua Array' is still composed of the Five Elements and Bagua, with a total of thirteen formations. Since it is a living formation, not a dead formation, the 13 positions need to be improvised, therefore, the 13 positions must be guarded separately. To put it simply, the 'Great Five Elements Bagua Array' requires 13 people to join forces to guard 13 positions in order to activate. ”

Hearing this, all the beauties raised their eyebrows, and Zixia said, "Supreme Treasure." There are thirteen of us here. It's just enough to set up a 'Big Five Elements Bagua Array'. You just said that you have something to look for us, this is it, right? ”

Tang Xiaosheng nodded and said, "Not bad." If the thirteen of us join forces and set up a 'Great Five Elements Bagua Array', it may be possible to trap the 'Strange Energy'. ”

"That being the case. Let's try it! Zixia said.

"yes. Maybe you can catch the 'Strange Energy'! Guo Xiang was quite curious about strange energy. I can't wait to ask, "Big brother, what are we going to do then?" ”

Seeing that everyone had no objections. Tang Xiaosheng then introduced to them the formation principle of the "Great Five Elements Bagua Array".

The "Great Five Elements Bagua Array" is the same as the Five Elements Bagua Array, consisting of the Five Elements and the Eight Trigrams, with a total of thirteen formations.

As we all know, the Five Elements Bagua Array can be used as an auxiliary system for the Moonlight Treasure Box, which is specially used for space-time positioning. The reason why the Five Elements Bagua Array can be positioned in time and space is because the Five Elements and Bagua control the rules of time and space respectively.

Among them, the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth control the rules of time; The Qian, Kan, Gen, Zhen, Xun, Li, Kun, and Dui in the gossip have the rules of space.

If the five elements and the eight trigrams are set up in an open formation, they can connect various times and spaces, and thus locate time and space.

On the contrary, if the Five Elements and Bagua are set up in a closed formation, time and space can be blocked separately. After time and space are blocked, an absolutely sealed "dilemma" will be formed, in which there is no escape from time or space, and in this way, there is nowhere to escape.

And this is exactly the principle of Tang Xiaosheng trapping the "strange energy" with the help of the "Great Five Elements Bagua Array".

Although it is not yet known what the "strange energy" of the Dao is, everything cannot transcend time and space. As long as the "Great Five Elements Bagua Array" is used to form a closed formation that blocks space-time and space at the same time, it should be able to trap the "Strange Energy" in it.

And to form this closed formation, it is necessary for thirteen people to be responsible for the thirteen positions of the "Great Five Elements Bagua".

Among them, in the five directions of the five elements, Zhao Min guards the "gold" position, Ren Yingying guards the "wood" position, Xiaolongnu guards the "water" position, Tang Xiaosheng guards the "fire" position, and Bai Xiaoxiao guards the "earth" position.

Among the eight directions of the gossip, Zixia guards the "Qian" position, Bai Jingjing guards the "Kan" position, Gan Shijiumei guards the "Gen" position, Dongfang Undefeated guards the "Zhen" position, Guo Xiang guards the "Xun" position, Xiao Zhao guards the "Li" position, Qingxia guards the "Kun" position, and Wang Yuyan guards the "Dui" position.

After arranging their respective positions, Tang Xiaosheng gave a detailed introduction to the formation principle of the "Great Five Elements Bagua Array".

Xiaolongnu, Zhao Min, Zixia, Wang Yuyan, Ren Yingying and others are all talented and intelligent, and as soon as Tang Xiaosheng explained, they understood the essence of the formation.

This Great Five Elements Bagua Array was developed by Tang Xiaosheng for several years, it integrates the principles of the Five Elements Bagua Array and the cosmological knowledge of Yin's Multiverse Theory, and I am afraid that there is no second formation like this in the world.

After learning the essence of this formation, Guo Xiang, Xiao Zhao, Ren Yingying and others were very interested and decided to try it immediately.

So, at about twelve o'clock in the evening, everyone came to the rooftop of the Moonlight Building, ready to practice this formation here.

Because it was the first time to practice, everyone went from shallow to deep, at first only practiced the relevant footwork, and then, practiced the change of the formation, and then practiced the five elements and the Bagua direction respectively, and then the thirteen positions practiced at the same time, and finally, they officially entered the practice of the big formation.

To master a completely new set of formations, it may take months or even years of practice for the average person to achieve success.

However, after practicing for about forty minutes, Xiaolongnu, Ren Yingying, Zhao Min, Dongfang Undefeated and others had basically mastered this set of "Great Five Elements Bagua Array".

The reason why the progress can be so rapid is because they are smart and highly qualified; On the other hand, it is because they have Nie Xiaoqian's three souls and seven spirits in their bodies, and they can have a spirit in their hearts, and when they practice the formation, they have the same soul and cooperate seamlessly, just like a whole.

After practicing together, Tang Xiaosheng said to everyone: "The time for the 'Strange Energy' to appear is very short, if you want to trap it, you must activate the 'Great Five Elements Bagua Array' before it disappears, which requires us to be able to activate this formation in an instant. ”

Everyone nodded, and Zixia said, "Supreme Treasure, let's try it now." ”

"Okay."

After speaking, the thirteen people fell to the thirteen positions of the "Great Five Elements Bagua Array" and got ready.

"Up!"

Tang Xiaosheng gave an order, swishing a few times, and the thirteen figures flashed rapidly, shifting and changing shadows, sweeping back and forth between the thirteen formations, threading needles and threads, extremely fast, like meteors, dazzling.

Airplanes!

Suddenly, a strange pattern lit up in the air, and the pattern changed dramatically, containing the rules of "Five Elements" and "Eight Trigrams".

Seeing this, everyone knew that the Lu Dao formation had been activated, and the five people who were guarding the direction of the five elements, Zhao Min, Ren Yingying, Xiaolongnu, Tang Xiaosheng, and Bai Xiaoxiao, had a thought in their hearts, and five white lights shot out at the same time, respectively guarding the five formations of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, forming a closed formation in mid-air to block the time crack.

At the same time, Zixia, Bai Jingjing, Gan Nineteen Sisters, Dongfang Undefeated, Guo Xiang, Xiao Zhao, Qingxia, Wang Yuyan and other eight people who were guarding the Bagua direction shot eight rays of light at the same time, guarding the eight formations of Qian, Kan, Gen, Zhen, Xun, Li, Kun, and Dui, forming a closed formation in mid-air and blocking the spatial crack.

In this way, the Great Five Elements Bagua Array blocked the time rift and the space rift at the same time, forming an absolutely closed "dilemma", in which everything had nowhere to escape.

And this absolutely hermetic "dilemma" is precisely prepared for "strange energy".

At this point, the entire drill of the "Great Five Elements Bagua Array" has ended.

"Close!"

As soon as Tang Xiaosheng's words fell, everyone's minds moved, and at the same time, the strange pattern in mid-air disappeared instantly, and the "dilemma" in mid-air also disappeared instantly.

"Supreme Treasure, how's it going? Are we doing okay? Zixia asked with concern.

Tang Xiaosheng analyzed: "Just now, it took us about five seconds in total from activating the formation to blocking the time rift and space rift. Tonight is the first time we have practiced this formation, and it is amazing to be able to do this speed. However, if we want to use this formation to catch the 'Strange Energy', we still need to continue to practice. This is because the time for 'Strange Energy' to appear is generally not more than 0.1 seconds. ”

"0.1 seconds?" Everyone was slightly stunned, and Zixia said, "This means that we have to activate the formation within 0.1 seconds?" ”

"Almost." Tang Xiaosheng nodded.

"This 'strange energy' is really bizarre enough. Looks like we're going to have to practice a little more. Zixia said.

Tang Xiaosheng said: "It's late, let's get here first tonight." While it's important to practice formations, it's imperative to sleep. (To be continued......)
