After the meal was served, the three of them feasted on it, Yuan Wuji ate especially hard, this was the first time he tasted the food made by a cultivator, and it tasted really different from what mortals cooked.

After a full meal, Jin Mushui called Xiao Er like a rich man, and the two words "settle the bill!" were clear and powerful, and they were loud.

"Okay guest officer, there are a total of eighty-four spirit stones, today is the first anniversary of the opening of the shop, I will give you a discount, only eighty spirit stones!" said the immortal cultivator on the first level of the Qi Refining Realm.

"It's easy to say, isn't it just eight ...... Ten yuan?" Jin Mushui couldn't believe when he heard the price, "What did we all eat? Why is it so expensive?"

The cultivator smiled and said, "Look at you, you just came to our Chongcheng! The food in our Chongcheng is not an ordinary food. All the ingredients we have here are not ordinary ingredients, these are all from foreign lands! Let's just say that the sauce pork ribs you eat the most, do you think this is ordinary pork? That's definitely not it, this is made of meat from the body of an exotic arch mountain beast, just this one arch mountain beast, it would take seven or eight cultivators above the seventh level of the Qi Refining Realm to capture it, do you say it's worth the price? Besides, haven't you felt it yet? In addition to the deliciousness of the ingredients here, the biggest advantage is that it can restore the aura, do you feel extra abundant at the moment?"

Obviously, he often encounters diners like Jin Mushui who don't know the depths, and this cultivator has been prepared for a long time.

The three of them looked at each other and felt that what Xiao Er said made some sense, so Jin Mushui had no choice but to settle the account, and then walked out of the restaurant with a long face.

"This cultivator's money is really not forbidden!" Jin Mushui sighed, "No wonder so many people are desperately trying to become dragon slayers, if they don't have a stable source of income, I'm afraid they won't even have the capital to live in this city." ”

Ma Xie also felt the same way, not long ago he and Jin Mushui got a few spirit stones, and they already felt that they had a little capital, who knew that in such a big city, the spirit stones were like flowing water, and a meal cost eighty spirit stones, and if this continued, the little money on them would not be able to survive even a month here.

"I'd better save some flowers. Jin Mushui scratched his head: "I won't charge a lot of money anymore!"

After that, the three of them laughed, the three of them didn't know too much about the cultivation world, and they didn't know if they would make such jokes in the future.

After that, Jin Mushui settled down in a place called "Xiaoyefang" outside Chongcheng, where many cultivators and many mortals lived, and they were all the same as Jin Mushui, and they thought that the cost of living in Chongcheng was too high, so they found a place to live outside the city.

The owner of this workshop is still a person with great powers, and he has even set up a huge spirit gathering array here, and the cultivators here can live here for a month as long as they pay three spirit stones, and of course the money for staying in the hotel is calculated separately.

After Jin Mushui delivered the spirit stone, he said goodbye to Ma Xie, in fact, they were not far away, but Ma Xie had to continue to go south soon after, and Jin Mushui planned to live here for a while, and when he broke through to the seventh layer of the Qi Refining Realm, he would go to the royal capital to participate in the dragon slayer's exam.

"Brother Ma, your cultivation speed is so fast, I think you will soon be able to reach the seventh layer of the Qi Refining Realm! At that time, you will be able to take the Dragon Slayer Exam, I hope to catch up with you as soon as possible." Jin Mushui's current cultivation level is higher than that of Ma Evil, but he has no doubt that Ma Evil will take the Dragon Slayer Exam before him, and he will definitely succeed.

After the two said goodbye, Ma Xie and Yuan Wuji returned to the cliff where they had lived in seclusion.

The sunset stretched Ma Xie's shadow, and now only he and Yuan Wuji are left, although he understands Jin Mushui's approach, but Ma Xie's heart is still a little reluctant, I don't know who else will meet in the next journey.

"Yuan Wuji, do you want to continue to wander with me like this? I don't think I will find a stable place to practice like Brother Jin, I am not that kind of person, I don't know how many dangers I will experience in the future. Ma Xie said.

"I'm not afraid, I have to go back to a foreign land, and I have to find my people, so I can't just stay in one place. I'm going to travel all over this continent and learn every bit of information about the foreign land, and when you become a dragon slayer, let's go to the foreign land together!" said Yuan Wuji to Ma Xie.

As they spoke, they came to the side of the small village at the foot of the hill, and by this time it was getting dark, and the village was silent, and the villagers had already entered their houses after a day's work.

"Let's take a look around the neighborhood, we've been here for so many days, and we haven't seen it well. Ma Xie said to Yuan Wuji, and Yuan Wuji readily agreed, so the two of them prepared to bypass the village and go to the hill behind them.

When they entered the village, they found a stone monument standing in front of the village, with three vague words on it, which could no longer be seen clearly.

Ma Xie didn't care, and took Yuan Wuji around the village and continued to move forward.

But he hadn't walked a few steps and noticed a strange thing, and the stone tablet had appeared in front of them again, still in the same position, still in the same vague words.

"What's going on in this village? Is there a stone tablet on each side?" Ma Xie thought to himself, so he stepped forward and wiped the dust on the stone tablet with his hand, but unfortunately it was too dark for him to read the words on it.

When he encountered this stele for the third time, he was completely convinced that there was something wrong with it!

There were clearly traces of his wiping on the stele, which meant that the stele he saw now was the same as the previous stele.

Ma Xie and Yuan Wuji didn't believe that there were ghosts and monsters in this world, and in such a village where all mortals lived, there must be some secret behind such strange things happening.

So Ma Xie jumped into the air, wanting to fly into the air to see what the village below was like.

It's a pity that he had barely flown five feet before he felt blocked by an invisible wall.

"It's a formation!" Ma Xie instantly understood what was wrong in this village, there was a formation arranged here, and it was an extremely powerful trapped formation.

"What should we do? can we get out?" asked Yuan Wuji anxiously, he didn't know anything about the formation.

"Let's try it, I've also studied a few simple formations. Ma Xie said to Yuan Wuji, "The core of the formation is to use the formation talisman to change the law of the operation of the aura in order to cause special effects. As long as we find the eye of the formation and remove the spirit stone on it, the formation will naturally break without the spiritual energy. ”

Yuan Wuji nodded, anyway, he didn't know anything about formation, but he had extra trust in Ma Xie.

In fact, it is so simple to say that the method of breaking the formation, but if you want to really break the formation, it is not that easy at all.

All formation mages will protect and hide the formation eye well, maybe it is a stone, maybe it is a tree, in short, everything in the formation may be the formation eye.

If you are not proficient in formation, it is difficult to find the formation eye laid by the formation mage, and it is impossible to talk about breaking the formation.

"The universe is uncertain, yin and yang are invisible, obvious!"

According to the method in "Acting in the Heavenly Record", Ma Xie condensed ten spiritual threads in his hands, and each finger controlled one.

Under the manipulation of Ma Xie, the ten spiritual threads stretched out to ten different places, and Ma Xie pinched a handprint and began to feel the trend and trajectory of the formation here through the spiritual silk.

Under the manipulation of the horse evil, the spirit silk is like ten tentacles, exploring everywhere in the air.

I saw that wherever the spirit silk went, it would occasionally emit a little bit of bright light, causing the aura to vibrate there, and that was where the runes of the formation and the channel where the aura operated.

What Ma Xie has to do is to calculate the trajectory of the entire formation through these bright lights, and then find the location of the formation eye through these traces.

However, these spirit threads are always too few, and even if ten spirit threads are triggered in the same place, they may not be able to make a rune manifest the whole picture, so they can only try little by little.

It's like covering a painting with a blank piece of paper, and Ma Xie only has ten silver needles, so he just wants to pierce the white paper with the silver needles, and then look at the whole picture of the painting.

Under Ma Xie's repeated attempts, he was never able to see the whole picture of the entire formation clearly, and could only be sure that he and Yuan Wuji were trapped dozens of feet at the entrance of the village.

"Or we'll just wait here, the man who laid the formation must know we're trapped inside, and I think he'll come out to meet us. Yuan Wuji said.

Ma Xie shook his head: "I'm still trying, who knows if the master of this formation is friend or foe, if he sets up another killing formation outside at this time, then we will die." ”

Although he didn't understand why he had laid out a formation in front of this ordinary village, Ma Xie would not sit still, he didn't want to put his fate in the hands of others.

So he sat cross-legged with a stamp in his hand, and he wanted to use his full potential to find out where the flaws in this formation were.

I saw fifteen spirit silks appear in his hands, this is his current limit, at this time, his control power over the spirit silk is no longer as good as ten, and there are several spirit silks flying wildly in the air.

Without the assistance of divine sense, Ma Xie could only rely on himself to control the aura, which was naturally very difficult, but he still tried his best to manipulate the fifteen spiritual wires to fix them on the ground and the surrounding buildings.

After fixing the spirit silk, Ma Xie condensed another hundred and fifty golden needles, and this time he did not put the gold needles into his body, but released the gold needles and pierced them in the places where the spirit silk touched and reacted.

This is how Ma Xie used the spirit silk to find the general direction, and then used the golden needle to carefully probe the runes here.

In this way, Ma Xie roughly saw the direction of the aura in this formation, and he deduced it in his heart and determined several possible positions of the formation eyes.

The first thing he saw was the strange stone tablet.

It was strange that the stone tablet appeared abruptly at the entrance of the village, and Ma Xie found that the dust he had wiped away before had been re-covered at some point.

Ma Xie made marks in several places that seemed to be the eyes of the formation, and sure enough, he found that the restoration of all the marks began from the stone tablet.

"This is it. Ma Xie decided to pull out the stele, find the spirit stone under the stele, and forcibly dismantle this formation.

"Stop!" Just as Ma Xie was about to make a move, a voice came.

Ma Xie and Yuan Wuji looked back and saw that it was an old man with gray hair.

The old man held a bamboo-like thing, resisted on his shoulder, and faced Ma Xie and Yuan Wuji.

"You are not allowed to destroy this formation, otherwise I will be unkind!" The old man said, "How many times do you want me to say it, our Phantom Yin Sect will not surrender to your Xuanyang Sect!"

"Xuanyang Sect?Phantom Extreme Sect?, what do you mean?" Ma Xie realized that there must be some misunderstanding in this.

"Uncle, listen to my explanation, we are not from Xuanyangmen......" Ma Xie hurriedly said to the old man in front of him.

But before the old man could finish speaking, he pulled the mechanism of the bamboo tube on his shoulder.

The bamboo tube was originally black, but it suddenly emitted a brilliant brilliance, and then it was launched at Ma Xie and Yuan Wuji.

Ma Xie felt a huge fluctuation in spiritual power, and dodged without even thinking about it.

Only a loud "boom" was heard, and Ma Xie looked back to see that the position where they were standing just now had been blasted out of a big crater by a huge spiritual power.

"What kind of weapon is this......" Ma Xie said secretly in his heart, this old man is obviously a mortal, why can he manipulate the aura?
