Chapter 165: Enemy Tracks
Zhang Fan roughly speculated from the accumulation of experience in his previous confrontations: the faster she moved, the more difficult it was to hide her body, and the young woman could disappear from her eyes so quickly, and she should not be able to run within a radius of 100,000 miles in the direction of disappearance.
Therefore, after approaching a plain not too far from the Central Holy City, Zhang Fan used the auxiliary transformation spiritual power receiver in the Qiankun shield as a help, and concentrated on scanning every area within a radius of 100,000 miles.
Perhaps because of the proximity to the central holy city of the Xuanfa Sect, which can get some shelter and benefits, in addition to the area about ten thousand miles away from the central holy city, the surrounding population density seems to be significantly greater than that of ordinary areas. In an area of less than 2 billion square kilometers, there are other inhabited areas with a population of nearly 500 billion people that would only exist within a million miles.
With hundreds of thousands of prosperous cities lined up, even at this time, Zhang Fan was by no means an ordinary god powerhouse, and his spiritual power and even perception ability seemed to feel a lot of burden.
Obviously, if a god-level powerhouse monk doesn't care about all the consequences, even if he endures great damage to his cultivation, it is very easy to abandon his physical body and choose to possess an ordinary mortal with a primordial infant or even his soul.
The only thing that makes Zhang Fan happy is that when he was thinking about the various threats and situations he might encounter in the past, he did not have some means to deal with this situation. It also took a lot of effort to enter some signal characteristics on the auxiliary talisman that did not conform to the characteristics of ordinary people in the rivers and lakes or even ordinary mortals. Because only a few very vague simple signs were set according to the experience of some predecessors, it cannot be concluded that all mortals and even people in the rivers and lakes with similar signs must be possessed, and even the possibility of false alarm is quite large, but this can at least allow Zhang Fan to greatly narrow down the scope of investigation.
In the bustling area near the central holy city, the cook in the courtyard of an ordinary large family was cooking on the fire, but for some unknown reason, she fainted to the ground not long ago. Unlike other places, because of its proximity to the core of the Xuanfa sect, this area is very well managed. Even the subordinates of ordinary large households have generally established trade unions under the previous Wang Er's policies, and there are very few cases of overwork or lack of "medical insurance". Of course, in order to prevent the people in this area from developing too much sense of superiority, ordinary people are not immune to all diseases, so this kind of people who temporarily faint for various reasons within the huge population of hundreds of billions of people occur in thousands of hours every hour, and even approach 10,000 people at some moments.
But just when the people in the courtyard had just transferred it to the special cultivation room, under the yellow light, the cook lady and many other people in the city disappeared, because the ordinary people in the courtyard were worried. Fortunately, in this kind of place, even the common people have often seen the competitions and even fighting methods of those high-level monks, so they are not too surprised.
"You say, could that woman be an evil monk and monster lurking in? Have you heard? Not long ago, there was a strange celestial phenomenon in the direction of the Central Holy City, and it seemed that some big man was fighting the law. ”
"Oh, I've heard of it, it seems that while the god lord is not here for the time being, those evil supreme powerhouses in the god realm are coming together... ”
"Then be careful these days... ”
The first batch of people who were teleported to Zhang Fan under the strength of the transformation spirit were people who had been sick or unconscious one after another in the recent suspicious time, people who were mentally deranged and their personalities had changed within an hour, and these people were obviously the biggest suspects. Zhang Fan pulled these people to a range of about 100 miles away from him with the spiritual power of the transformation, and after careful screening and investigation at close range in the air, they were all sent back, in order to avoid causing trouble to these ordinary people, and after solving the health crisis of tens of thousands of men, women, and children, he also attached some means of regular transmission: "After investigation, this person should not be possessed by the evil monks, and you don't need to be overly embarrassed about this matter... ”
In this way, in the next few days, Zhang Fan also examined many people who suddenly improved after being critically ill, "awakened teenagers" like himself, and even people whose personalities changed so much that people around relatives and friends were full of complaints.
Although the people who live not too far from the central holy city are already familiar with many things, this kind of screening and review still causes panic for a while.
This kind of screening and exploration of the mundane world did not last long, and Zhang Fan refocused the direction of the exploration in the wild area outside the city. According to Zhang Fan's general inference at this time: to be able to conceal so quickly and almost not see any suspicious signs within the range of his own perception is likely to be achieved through some unique formation.
Zhang Fan, who had encountered this kind of threat on the pinnacle battlefield, had thought a lot about it in the past when he was preparing for the battle on the way home.
However, spells such as magic arrays, according to Zhang Fan's series of understandings in the Central Holy City's Hidden Scripture Pavilion, generally bring people to misjudge or conceal themselves through three types of means. The first is active illusion, which can actively affect people's mind and mind, from the body to the eyes, and the perception of the outside world. The second is passive illusion, which distorts illusions and scenes by some special optical means. There is also a formation formed by a unique spatial and temporal means. It is said that under the realm of refining the void, there has never been a real battle of this kind of formation in the world.
According to Zhang Fan's test with some very simple formations: most formations will show some anomalies even if they have no reaction when facing the detection of instantaneous high-power burst waves. The first is that the radar imaging does not match the optical imaging observed by oneself, and the second is that those active illusions often rely on some unique spiritual objects, and in the case of unusual radio wave detection, they often either expose their true bodies or expose some mental power abnormalities.
Zhang Fan once again accumulated the thunder and lightning energy in the Qiankun shield for a day and night, and after remaking a lot of auxiliary spiritual power runes, he once again flew into the air about seventy miles high, and spread out an invisible receiving device with a diameter of about twenty miles by transforming spiritual power.
At the same time, a unique spell was used to detonate a special thunderball talisman in a specific spiritual power transformation energy space, so that the power of the radio waves to burst in all directions reached a hundred times that of normal circumstances. At the same time, Zhang Fan's spiritual power perception system was also released within a radius of 100,000 li at the same time.
With the coordination of this unique radar detection method and the spiritual power perception method, it seemed strange to finally discover an ordinary abandoned village thirty-two thousand miles southwest of the central holy city. On the surface, there is not much difference between the radar imaging and the mental scanning, but some of the wild animals in the village seem to be unresponsive under their own sweeping detection, which is a bit abnormal. According to Zhang Fan's previous rough test, such a strength and distance, small animals such as wild mice should also react somewhat.
In this fantasy world, near the central holy city with abundant materials and wide benefits, there are some crops that can be planted very extensively and can have good harvests, and there are some agricultural beasts whose endurance and even functional power far exceed the best horses in the earth plane, so the agricultural production efficiency in this seemingly ancient plane can almost reach the level of one-fifth of the labor productivity of the developed countries on the earth plane, and only one percent of the labor force of farmers can support about ninety percent of the level of towns, and because the supply of food is sufficient, and to a large extent, there are many ancient planes in the history of the earth that have never done so"Temporary Village"
There is nothing strange about this uninhabited and deserted village in this area, and there are even two daring children playing hide and seek here, which is actually a very common scene in the vicinity of the central holy city within a radius of 100,000 miles. The law and order was extremely good, and because of Wang Er's special habits, there was no single village, and the phenomenon of human trafficking almost disappeared. For the most part, many adults don't worry about their children going to play far away.
However, when Zhang Fan approached a distance of about 100 miles, he found that the teenager who looked very ordinary looked a little strangely in the direction he was coming from, as if he felt some great threat.
In this case, Zhang Fan had no intention of staying behind, and the lightning-like thunder technique suddenly concentrated and shot at the suspicious target, and the teenage child was instantly turned into a charred corpse under the attack of thunder and lightning.
"Hmm, how can this be?" Zhang Fan also felt a little strange at this time. It's just that when he approached a distance of only a few miles or so from the village, an alarm suddenly appeared in his heart, and in the perception of spiritual power, a wriggling soul shot towards him from the charred corpse at a speed that did not look like a Gu worm at all, like a streamer, almost making Zhang Fan unavoidable, as if he was facing the colorful treasure light, and even had no time to escape into the Qiankun Shield, so he could only stimulate the defensive talisman and even the transformation spiritual power around him at the fastest speed in an attempt to intercept the target, creating a chance to escape into the Qiankun Shield.
But even so, all the defensive means were as expected, and they had almost no effect, and the Void Ghost Gu was directly projected into Zhang Fan's chest with the weakest defense like light and shadow.
Zhang Fan, who had suffered similar losses, of course, had all kinds of preparation methods before, and in his most important Qi Sea and Mud Pill Palace, he had layers of talisman and even energy protection, so that the ghost Gu that drilled into his body did not dare to have an easy showdown with these vital points. However, the rest of the entire body was not so lucky, and the entire body seemed to be immediately controlled, although the spiritual power and spiritual power were still there, they were instantly blocked in the middle of the operation.
