Chapter 239: The Point of No Return
When Gu Mo met Liu Chen, he was already angry, if it weren't for Lin Kong's dislike of killing innocents, he would have killed a long time ago with his temperament.
Now that he was blocked by three gatekeepers, Gu Mo's eyes were suddenly full of cold light, "Get out of the way!" ”
As soon as the words came out, Gu Mo had already strode directly towards the three of them, although he was in the air, every time Gu Mo took a step, there was a sound of thumping under his feet, as if he was walking on a wooden plank.
This time, Lin Kong didn't stop Gu Mo, just watched silently from the side, in fact, he also felt that the master here was too arrogant, and he didn't come out to greet him personally, and let the three low-level monks stand in the way, which really meant to underestimate them.
Seeing that Lin Kong was silent, Gu Mo's heart also relaxed, and the momentum on his body rose sharply, and a powerful aura gushed out, which suddenly forced the three foundation building period monks to retreat one after another, and beads of sweat the size of beans poured out.
"Lao Tzu gave you half a bag of cigarettes, if you don't call out that bullshit immortal, Lao Tzu will kill all of you here, why don't you get out of here?" Gu Mo shouted sharply.
The three monks dared to stay there, and entered the palace as soon as they slipped through the smoke, but strangely, the three of them never came back after they left, and except for some panicked mortals, there was no monk again.
"Grandma, these little bastards actually dare to lie to me, it's really boring." After waiting for a stick of incense, the three people still didn't come out, Gu Mo was so angry that his lungs exploded, and with an angry scolding, he flew towards the palace gate.
"Let's go, let's go check it out." Lin Kong whispered to Deng Chou and the others, and followed Gu Mo closely.
After a while, the group stood in front of the gate of the Wuliang Palace in a down-to-earth manner, standing in this place, looking up at the three big characters of "Wuliang Palace" in the middle of the city gate, and everyone suddenly felt a sense of insignificance.
The gate of this palace is really too big, forty or fifty zhang high, nearly twenty or thirty zhang wide, and it is said that it is a carriage, even if you pull a building, you can get in.
What's even more strange is that although the palace gate is large, the courtyard walls on both sides are a lot shorter, as if to highlight the portal.
Such a strange construction style, which is not available on the Lingyun Continent or on the earth, is completely beyond common sense.
"I don't think it looks like it's in the air, I just feel that this palace gate is a little higher, and now it looks really weird, why do you say he built such a big door?" Deng Chou asked.
"Humph! You ask Lao Tzu, how does Lao Tzu know, don't be stunned, find that bullshit fairy, don't you understand everything? Gu Mo was sullen in his heart, and he didn't treat Deng Chou and others very well, so he replied angrily, and strode towards the palace gate.
"Wait!"
As soon as Gu Mo raised his legs, Lin Kong stopped in a deep voice: "Don't rush in, there are strange things in here." ”
When everyone heard this, Gu Mo frowned even more, and said dissatisfiedly: "What's weird, so many of us are still afraid?" ”
"I'm afraid that I'll only know later, have you noticed, this palace gate is so big, it stands to reason that you should see a lot of buildings, but if you take a closer look, what else do you see in front of you in addition to a big road?" Lin Kong ignored Gu Mo and pointed in front of him and said.
Before, everyone's eyes were attracted by the palace gate, but they didn't take a closer look at the situation inside the palace gate, after Lin Kong's reminder, they came back to their senses, only to see that there was nothing in the palace gate except for a stone avenue that could not be seen.
"Shhh Odd. When we look at it above, it's not like this! In the crowd, a middle-aged man gasped and flew into the air.
Looking down from the sky, inside the huge palace gate, there is indeed a wide stone road, but on both sides of the road there are artificially planted trees, each of which has the thickness of a bucket, and there are some lighthouses scattered between the gaps in the trees, which looks quiet and elegant.
"There is indeed a problem, there should be wood and other things on both sides of the road, but standing in front of the door, you can't see anything." The middle-aged man returned to the ground and said with a shocked face.
In fact, there is no need to fly into the sky to investigate, with the monk's super memory, he has already discovered the abnormality, so everyone squinted their eyes slightly and investigated the situation inside the palace gate with their divine sense.
The divine sense was as inside, and he glanced frantically, but in the end, except for the stone road, even those majestic palaces were gone.
The gap between vision and divine consciousness is so great that if a person comes here, he will definitely think that everything he sees is an illusion.
However, more than a dozen pairs of eyes have seen the palace, seen the wood and other things, why is there nothing when the divine sense scans it?
"The building materials used in these city walls are all from the White Jade Mountain in the western part of the Lingyun Continent, and they are real stones, and they are not evolved or refined by non-magic." Hua Sanniang reached out and touched the palace wall and said.
"Could it be that someone inside has laid a powerful phantom array?" Deng Chou asked.
Among the crowd, Hua Sanniang has the most experience in illusion, and when Deng Chou asked, everyone turned their attention to Hua Sanniang.
"There shouldn't be a phantom array, at least I can't see it." Hua Sanniang frowned, it seemed that even she couldn't eat it.
"Let's go, go in and have a look, but everyone should be careful." Lin Kong spoke, and walked towards the palace gate first.
Inside the huge palace gate, except for a stone road that could not be seen at a glance, there was really nothing, and the surrounding area was empty, like an abandoned pasture.
As the footsteps moved forward for an hour, they still didn't see the end of the stone road, and everyone involuntarily stopped.
"No, go back!" Lin Kong felt deeply uneasy in his heart, and turned around and wanted to exit the palace gate, but when he looked back, cold sweat suddenly broke out on his forehead, and the huge palace gate behind him was gone, only the stone road was lying at his feet, and there was still no end in sight.
"Shhh This...... What's going on? The middle-aged man said before, and wanted to take off again and fly into the air to watch, but was caught by Deng Chou.
"No, don't you notice that the sky above is different?" Deng Chou pointed his finger to the sky and motioned for everyone to look.
I saw that the sky that was originally empty for thousands of miles is now gray.
"It seems that we have really entered the phantom array, a formation that even Hua Sanniang can't understand, and there are likely to be other formations in this phantom array, and the entire formation will be transformed between the virtual and the real, when you think it is an illusion and walk directly over, it becomes an entity, and when you think it is an entity, it is actually an illusion." Lin Kong said in a deep voice.
This kind of virtual and real thing is really unguardable, even if you cultivate highly, you will be at a loss when you encounter this situation.
"Smack!" Gu Mo hit the ground twice with his footboard and said, "This stone plate should always be real, right?" Let's just keep going down this road, and when we get to the end, won't there be a way to break the formation? ”
Since it is determined that this is a formation, it is definitely not possible to break indiscriminately, continue to walk along the stone road, although the method is a little stupid, but it is the most effective, after all, no matter how long the road should be, there should be an end, even if it is an illusion, it is impossible to arrange it in a straight line, as long as you find signs such as turns, you can find out the flaws in the formation.
Lin Kong didn't have much research on the formation, turned his head to look at Hua Sanniang and the others, and asked for their opinions.
"Gu Daoyou is right, the phantom array usually arranges the same scene in a circle, making it difficult for people to discern the direction, so they circle around it until they are exhausted and die of depression." Hua Sanniang explained it to everyone, and then looked at Lin Kong.
Hua Sanniang, don't look at her usual frowning, looking like a **slut, but she really encountered something and was quite serious, the reason why she looked at Lin Kong after speaking, it was because whether to go or not, Lin Kong had to say it.
"Let's go! As the saying goes, there must be a way before a person reaches the mountain, and since he can get in, there must be a way to get out. Lin Kong was also a little unconvinced in his heart, and secretly said that they had so many Yuan Infant Stage cultivators, even if they couldn't get out, they could forcibly break the formation.
But now there are two roads, one is to go home, the original return, and the other is to continue to move forward to see what mystery is hidden at the end of the stone road.
Whether they go back or continue to move forward, there is no end in sight on either side, obviously since they stepped on the stone road, the scene behind them has changed at some point, and it is estimated that they will not be able to see the palace gate anymore, so Lin Kong still decided to continue moving forward.
Deng Chou and the others seemed to have the same idea, and as soon as Lin Kong turned around, they did not hesitate to follow.
After another two hours, the front was still the same, Gu Mo was a little impatient, and said: "The speed of walking like this is too slow, it's better for everyone to teleport, you can pass through this three-ring island in a few clicks, and you are afraid that you won't be able to get out of the phantom array?" ”
"No, the teleportation speed is too fast, you will miss some details, it is likely that it will appear in the next second, you have entered another phantom array, so back and forth, even if you run out of true yuan, you can't get out." Hua Sanniang said.
Gu Mo is not very proficient in the formation method, and when he heard Hua Sanniang say this, he immediately dispelled the idea of teleportation, gritted his teeth and continued to move forward.
After another two hours, a memorial arch suddenly appeared in front, everyone's hearts moved, quickly came to the archway below, looked up only to see the dragon flying phoenix dance on the archway with three words "no return".
After walking for four or five hours, they finally saw something different, and everyone thought that they had reached the end of the phantom array, but they didn't expect to see these three words, and the joy that had just risen suddenly receded like a tide.
The memorial arch is not big, across the middle of the stone road, the stone is also extremely ordinary white marble, there are a pair of stone lions standing on both sides, but it is no different from the mortal archway.
But what does the word "point of no return" mean? Could it be that the stone road under their feet is called the point of no return? Or do you just pass through the torii and never come back?
"Humph! Lao Tzu looked at this thing, it was the maze deliberately laid by the people who arranged the formation, so that we didn't dare to go any further, maybe this is a flaw in the position of the formation inlay, and use this broken archway to cover up. Gu Mo said viciously, and stretched out his hand and slapped the stone pillar of the archway. (To be continued.) )
