Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Soul Devouring Array
Hearing the content that came out of Yebai's mouth that made me wonder, I couldn't help but ask questions.
"Weak water has laid a soul-devouring array at the dragon vein? What kind of formation is that, it sounds a little gloomy from the name, and it doesn't seem to be the right way. ”
And Yi He's reaction was very different from mine, after all, he was the inheritance of the Ghost Valley and the relics of the Houtu, and he knew a lot more about these things than I did, and after hearing that Yebai came out of the Spirit Devouring Array, he only knew what was going on in a little trance.
Then, he answered my question in place of Yebai, explaining to me the origin of the so-called Spirit Devouring Array.
The Spirit Devouring Array, as the name suggests, is a kind of magic circle, although the name sounds a little different from the righteous way, but it is one of the most authentic Taoist magic circles in China, and it has been passed down by various sects and sects since ancient times
This array was originally prepared for cultivators, who laid this soul-swallowing array around their seclusion or retreat, so that they could invisibly absorb the surrounding spiritual energy, so as to make themselves better at cultivating
Through Yi He's general explanation, I can be sure of what the Spirit Devouring Array is, but after I thought about it carefully, the expression on my face became even more confused.
"Yi He, according to your method, this so-called Spirit Devouring Array seems to have a hundred benefits and no harm to the things in the battle, but since the weak water wants to cause turmoil, how can it be possible to set up a mercy array in Li Tang's dragon vein, this seems to be a bit impossible, right?"
"My lord, your doubts are right, but you only know one thing and you don't know the other, please listen to me."
Hearing my question, Yihe was not surprised at all, but he continued to speak patiently as if he had been prepared.
"The Spirit Devouring Array itself does not possess any harm, at best, it is only a source of spiritual energy for cultivators, but even if this array itself has no attack power, if it is used at the dragon vein, the harm caused to the dragon vein is far greater than any dangerous magic circle."
Looking at my increasingly confused eyes, Yi He seriously explained why there was such a method.
As the saying goes, copper coins have two sides, swords have two edges, and there are no absolutes in everything.
Although the original intention of the predecessors who created the Spirit Devouring Array was to provide spiritual energy for cultivators, they could never ignore the original characteristics of this magic circle.
Swallowing the soul and swallowing the spirit, the word "swallow" in this array is by no means in vain.
Under normal circumstances, this array will automatically absorb the aura from the ground for the use of the people in the array, but once there is a problem with the direction of the array, it will no longer provide the aura for the cultivators, but will devour the cultivator's own aura and scatter it between the ground.
The people in the weak water used this characteristic of the Spirit Devouring Array.
Although the weak water has bad intentions, it is undeniable that there are also many cultivators among them, and they know in their hearts that if a dangerous formation is arranged at the dragon vein, it will definitely change the trend of the earth, and such a big change will inevitably attract Guan Shan's attention.
Therefore, instead of arranging a magic circle that could destroy the dragon vein, they arranged this soul-devouring array that seemed beneficial and harmless at first glance.
It's just that this Soul Devouring Array is not an arrangement in the ordinary sense, but is deliberately reversed by the people in the weak water.
In this way, the formation that was supposed to absorb the aura of the earth to maintain the dragon vein instead became a life-urging array that was devouring the dragon qi all the time and trying to absorb it.
The dragon vein and dragon qi are the foundation of the dynasty, after the dragon qi is dispersed in the ground, even if nothing happens in a short period of time, but the dragon vein will definitely be damaged over the years, and at the same time, Li Tang Jiangshan will definitely go down.
At this point, Yi He quietly watched me stop speaking, as if to leave time for me to think for myself.
Although I didn't know much about these before, when I heard this, I had a rough idea in my mind
If the dragon vein is unstable, the country is not strong, perhaps it is precisely because of the problems in the dragon vein of Li Tang in Longxi that this has led to An Lushan all the way into a no-man's land, and Li Tang Jiangshan of Nuo Da can't find anyone who can resist him even half a point, and in the end he even easily captured the capital.
But if I'm not mistaken, Yebai had just been, and the leader had already made the best preparations, and the game of the double dragon gallop he had laid out at the Baqiao place might come in handy at this time.
Thinking of this, I asked without hesitation.
"Yebai, since Li Tang's dragon vein has been damaged, wouldn't the arrangement that the leader ordered you to make at the Baqiao before be useful?"
Seeing that I figured this out, Yebai nodded with relief and spoke.
"That's right, the original arrangement of the chief was to prevent this from happening, after confirming that the dragon veins in Longxi were damaged, the chief immediately made a decision, and without the slightest hesitation, he went to the Baqiao where the curtain was originally arranged."
"After coming to Baqiao, the leader personally cracked the Shuanglong Chi game that the curtain originally ordered me to arrange, and used his cultivation to move the dragon vein suppressed at Baqiao to Longxi, trying to replace Li Tang's damaged dragon vein with this dragon vein, so as to consolidate Li Tang's country."
"It's just a pity that it didn't fulfill people's wishes, even though the leader had already made all kinds of preparations, but what happened later almost made all this come to naught, and in the end, the leader could only maintain the continuation of Li Tang's country, but he could no longer restore it to its former prosperity."
Ye Bai suddenly shut up when he came here, leaving only me and Yi He looking at each other.
Since the leader had already made all the preparations and successfully moved the dragon vein at the Baqiao to Longxi, theoretically the Tang Dynasty's country had been consolidated, and that should not have happened.
But since Yebai will have such a method, then there must be another change, but after the Anshi Rebellion, there seems to be no other major events in the loading of the history books.
It seems that this is another secret matter that no one knows.
And looking at me and Yi He's blank eyes, Ye Bai surprisingly didn't explain, he looked at Chunting, and the two seemed to have some kind of secret exchange, and only after a long time did he look at us and speak.
"Let's get here first, the time has not yet come, and the rest is not the time to tell you."
Then, Yebai changed his conversation and unexpectedly left.
"Okay, it's time for me to leave, you still need to go on your own in the future, and when I finish my mission, I will be with you, but the time has not yet come."
