Because of the long distance, and he didn't know if he could get enough food and water on the way, Chen Yuan bought a lot of dry food and water, but fortunately, with the Mercy Star Ring, ten square meters of space was enough to hold these things. However, Chen Yuan's space equipment really made Feng Sanqi and Zhang Ling'er envious.

Five days later, the three of them had already arrived within the jurisdiction of Hanqi City. "Walk through this forest, about two hundred miles to the north, and we will reach Hanqi City. After entering the city, go to the city lord's mansion first to identify yourself and understand the situation. With the intelligence support of Hanqi City, we can also make a plan to explore the source of the beast tide. Tatsumoto said, holding the map in one hand and putting it on his forehead in the shape of a pergola in the other, wanting to see the shadow of the town or village, but to his disappointment, the dense forest in front of him blocked everything behind him so tightly that he couldn't see the scene behind the forest at all.

According to the instructions on the map, it is already very close to the destination, and it should be possible to reach Hanqi City in less than a day, and the three of them, who have been sleeping on the road for five days, no longer delay, desperately want to cross the forest and reach the destination to have a good rest.

Entering the forest, Chen Yuan felt a chill for no reason, and the three of them walked forward for a distance, and Chen Yuan, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped. "What's wrong?" asked Zhang Ling'er, who was following Chen Yuan.

Chen Yuan listened carefully, and said with a solemn face: "Something is wrong, don't you think this forest is too quiet?" As Chen Yuan said, this forest is too quiet, except for the occasional cry of jackdaws, there is not even the common insect song and bird call in the forest, the silence is terrible, and there is no sense of vitality in the ordinary forest at all.

The three of them immediately became alert, and cautiously pushed forward for a distance, and the forest gradually began to thinn, and at the end, a snow-white sandbar appeared in the field of vision of the three of them. The sandbar is very abruptly surrounded by dense forest in the middle, and there is nothing special about it on the surface.

"Are we too sensitive?" Before coming to Baishazhou, there was still nothing abnormal, Zhang Ling'er couldn't help but say. Chen Yuan was silent, and the three of them bypassed the white sandbar and continued to walk forward. After walking a distance again, nothing happened, and even Tatsumoto couldn't help but wonder if he was feeling wrong. But at this moment, the three of them saw a scene of disbelief, and the further they went, the more sparse the woods became, and at the end was a white sandbar, which seemed to be no different from the beginning.

"It's probably a coincidence. Feng Sanqi swallowed his saliva, his voice somewhat unnatural. "Try again. Chen Yuan also felt weird, but if he stopped now, it was obviously not a good choice. The three of them bypassed the white sandbar for the second time and walked into the dense forest in front of them, and after a while, the familiar picture and process were repeated again, and the three of them returned to the white sandbar again, and the three of them returned from the back without believing in evil, and even tried to pass the sandbar through the forest on the side, but the final result was to return to this familiar white sandbank. This dense forest seems to have become a labyrinth, and the three of them are like outsiders who happen to break into it, unfamiliar with the structure of the labyrinth, and there is no correct way to pass through, so they can only go back and forth in it, consuming their physical strength in vain.

After many fruitless attempts, he stopped, Chen Yuan frowned and said, "I'm afraid this is a formation." Feng Sanqi asked with some curiosity: "What is the formation?" Even Zhang Ling'er looked at Chen Yuan with some doubts.

"The so-called formation is a means of activating some special substances, such as elemental crystals or some substances that are easy to gather elements and aura, through special techniques, and then placing them in a specific position to change the environment of a party or even burst out with a super attack far beyond the level of the arranger. The formation is the name of our hometown, and if I'm not mistaken, the person who masters this skill is usually called a spirit master in the Nine Heavens Domain. Chen Yuan explained, while carefully observing the surrounding environment, there are many descriptions of formations in the Kunlun Daozang, although Chen Yuan has never arranged the formation, but he knows that all formations have their fate, that is, the so-called formation eye, as long as the formation eye is found, the three of them will be able to get out of trouble from here.

Feng Sanqiyi slapped his forehead and exclaimed: "Spirit Master! I've heard of it, no, no, I've seen it!" Among the teachers of the Taoist Academy, there is a spirit master, and the teacher once told me that the spirit master is divided into three branches: the heavenly spirit master, the earth spirit master and the phantom spirit master, the heavenly spirit master has the ability to temporarily change the celestial phenomena, the earth spirit master has the ability to change the terrain and environment, and the phantom spirit master has the ability to confuse people's hearts and blind their eyes. In one battle, the teacher saw with his own eyes that well-prepared earth spirit masters could easily tear the earth apart and then close it, burying at least hundreds of well-equipped enemies alive in the ground, and the teacher told me that as long as they were given enough time to prepare, even the lowest level spirit masters would be terrifying. ”

"So, our enemy is a spirit master?" After listening to Feng Sanqi's words, Zhang Ling'er's face also began to become solemn. If the spirit master is really as terrible as Feng Sanqi said, I'm afraid that he will fall into a bitter battle next.

"Don't be too nervous, although the formation and spirit master are terrifying, they are not invincible, not to mention that the person who arranges this formation is not an enemy. This kind of phantom array that confuses people's eyes is obviously arranged by a phantom master, and ordinary phantom masters will hide a killing array when they arrange the phantom array. Because the phantom array itself does not have a particularly strong attack power, at most it consumes the physical strength of the people in the formation, so it needs to kill the formation, that is, the formation with strong attack power as a supplement. But we have walked for so long without being attacked, which shows that the spirit master who arranged this formation did not hurt anyone, but we just strayed into it. Chen Yuan calmly analyzed the situation, and through the analysis, Zhang Ling'er and Feng Sanqi's overly nervous and sensitive nerves relaxed.

"Found it!" As he spoke, Chen Yuan's eyes lit up, and through the observation of the surrounding environment, as well as the density of the aura gathering, Chen Yuan found the location of the array eye. "Come with me. Chen Yuan said to the two, only to see Chen Yuan go straight to Baishazhou, Zhang Ling'er and Feng Sanqi glanced at each other, and gritted their teeth to follow.

From the moment they stepped on Baishazhou, Feng Sanqi and Zhang Ling'er saw a terrifying scene. At some point, the forests around the white sandbar are filled with jackdaws, aggressive social creatures with pitch-black feathers and ice-like beaks, which can mean ominous and death whenever they appear. Because of their social and flying nature, the Jackdaw Flock is recognized as one of the most unprovoked races in the Nine Heavens Domain. They are so numerous and aggressive that even the most powerful beasts dare not provoke them.

"Don't be afraid, this is still the evolution of the phantom array, and we can't trust our eyes here. Chen Yuan's voice came at the right time. The two of them forced themselves to compose, stabilized their minds, and continued to walk forward. Suddenly, the jackdaws in the forest moved, and countless jackdaws rose from the forest, rushing straight towards the two of them from all directions like sharp arrows.

In the face of this huge group of jackdaws, Zhang Ling'er and Feng Sanqi's pupils contracted rapidly, and there was no way to dodge at this time, so the two could only close their eyes and wait for the attack to come. After a while, the two of them did not feel a trace of pain and the feeling of being attacked, and slowly opened their eyes, and a magical scene appeared in front of them. Countless jackdaws still rushed like sharp arrows, but after touching the bodies of the two people, they shot out from behind like phantoms, and they could not cause substantial damage to the two of them at all.

At this moment, Chen Yuan had already come to the middle of the sandbar, he stomped his foot on the ground in the center, and the flock of jackdaws in the sky suddenly disappeared like ice and snow melting, and a forest path appeared in front of the three of them.
