Obviously, the formation that was upside down on the ground was specifically designed to restrict the passage of something underneath, and not surprisingly, the ground around the formation and the walls of the underground space that might exist beneath it were also prisons made using the same technology. Its fundamental purpose is to restrict the existence of a certain group or groups of people who are sealed in it.

"So what do we do now?" Tiger Girl asked Tianyou's opinion. "Do you want to leave it alone, or do you want to open it and take a look?"

To be honest, Tianyou is quite entangled in this issue.

First of all, purely from the perspective of exploration, it is the right choice to go down and see. After all, as a part of the Heavenly Palace, it is also a well-sealed area, and the probability of the existence of high-value relics is obviously higher than that of the surface. So it's worth it to go down and explore.

But from a faction perspective, this choice is not very easy to make.

Tianyou is currently a disciple of Zixiao Palace, and Zixiao Palace is the Immortal Gate Zhengshuo, which means that this relic should actually be regarded as the property of Zixiao Palace. And since the previous Immortal Sect forces chose to seal certain existences here, then from the perspective of Zixiao Palace, it is natural that they should continue to let it be sealed.

But to put it another way. Although Tianyou is a disciple of Zixiao Palace, he is followed by a group of monsters, especially Moon Shadow, the former boss of the demon clan, who has now become his symbiotic demon pet. In addition, some fragmented information provided by Senior Sister Nan Ming and Immortal Elder Fu Xi all pointed to one thing - he may be of demon blood. These all show that Tianyou himself may still be biased towards the demon camp. While this is not possible for the time being, and there are many contradictions in the information currently known, it is at least possible.

Therefore, in terms of the camp alone, Tianyou actually does not exclude the demon clan. Besides, even if there are monsters sealed inside, it is not necessarily a bad thing for the people in the Immortal Gate.

Don't forget, it's not uncommon for the Immortal Gate to control the demon pet and use the demon clan's flesh and soul to refine the magic weapon.

"So the question now is not which side we're on, it's a question of whether what's inside is a threat to us at all. Hu Qingxuan summed up this conclusion after Tianyou expressed his concerns.

The tiger girl, who has always been confused and bold, didn't care and said: "What are you afraid of? Even if the demon king is sealed inside, it has been sucked by this magic circle that can devour demon power for so many years, I'm afraid it will have been squeezed dry, right? I estimate that there is only a pile of white bones left in it, but it is more likely to be larger." ”

Tianyou originally thought so, but in his mind, Moon Shadow reminded: "Don't listen to Hu Niu's nonsense, the real demon king-level demon clan has a method of dormancy, not to mention that it is only a few thousand years, even if it is tens of thousands of years, it may not be fine." ”

"The Demon King is so powerful, so isn't this kind of seal completely useless to the Demon King?"

"Not really. has been sealed for so long, and the demon power will always be lost somewhat, and the decline in strength is inevitable, but it is unlikely to be directly sucked dry. After Moon Shadow finished speaking, she probably felt that she couldn't say too much, so she added: "But I'm talking about a big demon king like me, if the strength of the Yao clan sealed inside is not up to my standard, there may also be a possibility of being sucked dry in advance." In short, it still depends on the cultivation level of the guys in it to be determined. ”

"Then you have to open it and take a look. ”

"I think I can open it up and take a look. Even in the heyday of the demon clan, there were not many people who could cultivate to the level of the Great Demon King. The few who are the only ones have old ties with me, and even if they don't take the initiative to help, at least they won't embarrass me. If you can't cultivate to the Great Demon King...... has been sealed for so long, probably as the tiger girl said, there is only a pile of white bones left!"

Since Moon Shadow had suggested so, Tianyou didn't bother anymore. As for Qi Xiaomei, they naturally have no objection to Tianyou's decision. But it does take a bit of effort to open this seal.

Although the magic circle on the ground is internal and not external, the hardness of itself is also quite large. Originally, Tianyou had two divine swords in his hands, Taiyi and Emperor, and it was not impossible to forcibly cut them. But he was worried that the big demon inside would not be able to communicate well, and he pointed to this formation as the last line of insurance. Therefore, the destruction must not be destroyed, and the entrance can only be opened.

Although the Demon Town Tower is also a kind of seal, it is different from the special seal that simply seals a monster, this place is more like a prison dedicated to the demon clan, so there must be an entrance. The only problem is that God bless them don't know how to open this entrance. Violent prying is obviously not okay, so it needs to be studied.

A search of the ground and the surrounding space found nothing resembling a mechanism. It makes sense to think about it. The things of the fairy gate, it seems a bit too childish to use tricks to control them. Well, it should be some kind of spell or sorcery or something.

"That's trouble!" Tianyou looked at the magic circle on the ground in embarrassment and frowned, "After so many years, where can I find the secret spell to open the door?"

"Why don't you smash it?" Tiger Girl looked eager to try.

"Don't. "Tianyou hurriedly called the tiger girl, what if this girl really smashed open when she went crazy, and the big demon inside escaped out? Anyway, Tianyou didn't dare to guarantee that his small group of people could deal with the monsters that Heavenly Court didn't dare to deal with casually.

"You can't smash it, we don't know the mantra. How do you go down then?"

Hu Qingxuan suddenly said, "Why don't we try to open it directly?"

"Lift?"

Tianyou and Huniu were stunned for a moment, and then they reacted differently. Hu Niu probably couldn't figure out what Hu Qingxuan meant, but Tianyou did.

The sealing array on the ground is very powerful, but it is mainly limited internally, and the array disc itself may not have any special reinforcement, just relying on its own weight to press on the exit. Just like the manhole cover that can be seen everywhere in the city, it does not need any special fixtures at all, and it can be firmly embedded in the manhole mouth by its own weight alone. Ordinary people don't have tools, and it's impossible to pick them out with their bare hands.

The sealing array limits the power of the monster inside, so no matter how powerful the monster is, it is impossible to open it from the inside. But on the other hand, for people outside, as long as they can move this array, there is no other problem. Heavenly Court may have really had a secret spell to open this array disk before, but the real effect of that thing may be closer to a device like auxiliary power, which is used to make people easily move this lid.

It's easy to figure it out. Although the volume of this array is huge, you can see that the weight is not light at a glance, but the strength of Tianyou and Qi Xiaomei is monster-level among the monks, and Hu Niu is really a monster. With the three of them, it may not be impossible to move this thing away by brute force. Besides, they don't want to do anything about it, as long as they can remove a little gap and let people go down.

When you think about it, you do it.

The area of the circle is very large, and most of it is embedded below the ground, and there is nothing to focus on on it, even if you don't consider its own weight, it is not easy to pry it out from under the ground. None of this was a problem for Tianyou, though, because he had the Psionic Eye and two Divine Weapons.

The array on the ground is very large, and the formation below does not completely cover the entire array, so there are some places in it that can be destroyed. And Tianyou just has the eye of spiritual vision, and can see the flow of spiritual energy.

Therefore, what God bless them have to do is to inject demonic power into the array disk, and then let it naturally convert demonic power into aura. When there is aura, the array patterns on the array disk will be activated, and Tianyou can see these array patterns. Then as long as you use Taiyi or the Emperor Sword to pierce the array plate, you can get the focus point, and the rest is the strength work.

According to Tianyou's idea, the previous steps were all smooth, but Tianyou still underestimated the weight of the array disk. The three of them alone couldn't lift this array plate at all, and even if Hu Qingxuan joined in, it would be useless. Moon Shadow might be able to make a move, but Tianyou usually tries not to let Moon Shadow appear in a place where privacy is not fully guaranteed, so in the end he thinks of another way.

If you can't lift the array plate, you won't lift it, so Tianyou directly cut down a few big trees to make a simple hanger, and then used rope assistance to make the most primitive lifting equipment. However, considering that the rope he brought was not prepared for this, and the load-bearing capacity was limited, he didn't expect to directly lift this array plate, but used the hanger to pull one side of the array plate, and at the same time cooperate with Qi Xiaomei and Tianyou to exert force together. Instead of hoisting the array, they just lifted one side into a gap that was most accessible to them.

Because as long as one side is lifted, the weight is reduced by half, and with the leverage played by the hanger, the strength of several people finally makes the array move.

With a grinding sound, one side of the array was finally lifted. A disgusting smell that couldn't tell what it tasted immediately leaked out from the crack in the hole, and Tianyou almost covered the array plate directly.

"Quick, Qingxuan. Holding his breath, Tianyou urged.

Hu Qingxuan's reaction was actually not slow, but he was smoked by the smell and hesitated for a moment. Hearing Tianyou's reminder, he immediately pushed the boulder that had been prepared earlier under the open array plate and supported the array plate that was lifted.

"Alright, let go. After Tianyou reminded them, they quickly flashed to the side, and the smell under the cave entrance was still leaking, and even bursts of pale yellow smoke could be seen spreading.

Although he held his breath, Tianyou still felt sick from being smoked, and even his head was a little confused.

"What kind of smell is this?" "The tiger girl is a demon clan, and her sense of smell is better than that of Tianyou, even if she hides far away, she is still smoked out of the mosquito coil eyes, and she looks like she is about to faint. On the contrary, Qi Xiaomei, the companion with the lowest cultivation among them, did not have the slightest influence. After all, zombies can essentially not breathe, although Qi Xiaomei is not a complete zombie, but she is indeed not very sensitive to external stimuli.

Tianyou couldn't bear the smell at all, so he had no choice but to hide far away and wait for the natural air circulation to dilute the disgusting smell.

"It seems that the person imprisoned here is really the power of my demon clan!"

Tianyou, who was waiting for the smell to dissipate, suddenly heard the exclamation of the moon shadow in his mind, and then asked, "Do you know what this smell is?"

"I haven't smelled it in a long time. Moon Shadow sighed with emotion, and then explained, "This thing doesn't have a name, and it should have been lost." It was a little-known little fairy child who accidentally discovered that it was made of a variety of medicinal herbs. When ignited, it can produce a special aroma, which can play a calming role and is very helpful for stabilizing cultivation. ”

"That's good stuff, right?"

"Good things, what good things?" The tiger girl next to her was a little puzzled when she heard Tianyou's words. The dialogue between Moon Shadow and Tianyou uses soul resonance, which is inaudible to others. Tianyou just habitually said his voice, so he was heard by the tiger girl.

"I'm talking to Moon Shadow, and she says it's some kind of incense, a calming effect. ”

"Requiem? This smell of dead people can get up and run away, and still be requiem?"

"I don't know, it's Moon Shadow who said it. ”

Moon Shadow could hear Tiger Girl's words, so she directly explained to Tianyou: "This thing is very fragrant, you think it smells bad just because the smell is too strong." ”

This explanation is understandable. He remembered that he had seen rose essential oil before he crossed over. Not the kind of fake that is taken out and sold, but a real rose refined concentrated essential oil, a necessary additive for high-end perfumes. Although it is extracted from the flower, it really smells like a foul smell. I think it should be the same situation below, it is estimated that it is used too much, and the sealed environment causes the concentration to be too high, so the aroma becomes smelly.

But Tianyou still doesn't understand a little.

"Since this thing is a good thing, why should it be used here? Isn't this the Demon Suppression Tower? Could it be that the Xianmen is still popular to treat the captives and use high-grade incense for the captured demon kings?"

"How is that possible?" Moon Shadow explained, "Although this thing has a calming effect, it will also seal the spirit platform. It is indeed helpful for people who need to recuperate from injuries or who are in an unstable state of cultivation, but once the dosage is too large, it will become something like sweat medicine. And the higher the cultivation, the better the effect, and it is impossible to resist at all. ”

"The higher the cultivation, the better the effect?"

"Yes. Therefore, after knowing this thing, that Dao Tong was intercepted and killed by the assassins sent by my demon clan, and there should not be much left in the Heavenly Court, and he didn't even have time to pick up his name. ”

Tianyou nodded, and understood why the Immortal Heavenly Court wanted to put this thing in the Lock Demon Tower. They were worried that the seal inside would not be able to restrict the guys inside, so they simply used the sweat medicine together. And this concentration, eighty percent of them are thrown into their inventory. Otherwise, it wouldn't have emitted such a terrible smell for more than a thousand years.

"Won't we be fascinated by this smell after a while?" After knowing the effect of this thing, Tianyou asked Moon Shadow with some concern.

"Don't worry, once lit, the incense will turn into smoke and spread around. Before, it was sealed and couldn't spread, so it was kept for so long, and now that there is a gap, it should soon be dispersed. ”

Tianyou, who understood that this thing would not cause much hindrance, was not in a hurry, and told Hu Qingxuan and them about the situation of this thing again.

Hu Qingxuan and Qi Xiaomei both sighed that this thing was really powerful, while Hu Niu was anxious that the smell below would not disperse and would not dare to go down. Fortunately, as Moon Shadow said, this thing is really very volatile, and after the hole was opened, it kept smoking, and it was obvious that the color was much lighter after a stick of incense.

Tianyou tried to get closer, but the disgusting smell was no longer in the air, but a faint smell similar to the fragrance of medicine appeared. It's a little pungent, but it doesn't smell bad. After asking Moon Shadow to make sure that this concentration didn't make people faint, he didn't wait any longer.

"Alright, I'll go down and have a look, and the three of you will be waiting up there. ”

"Don't you want us to go down together?" Tiger Niu obviously wanted to follow.

Tianyou shook his head. "I'll go down alone, and it's easy to run if something happens, and if something happens, the hole is sealed, so you can save me out outside." ”

Hu Niu obviously still wanted to go down a little when she heard it, but Hu Qingxuan and Qi Xiaomei both felt that what Tianyou said made sense, so they persuaded her to come down, so they could only squat at the entrance of the cave and watch Tianyou drill down from the gap in the hole.
