Chapter 442: Soul Suppression Array
"Soul Suppression Array? I finally saw this formation here.................." Empress Huaiyang said excitedly.
Although the Soul Suppression Array is an extremely commonly used formation to deal with demons in the cultivation realm, under normal circumstances, ordinary cultivators would not use this formation.
Because ordinary cultivators have almost no chance of encountering demons on weekdays.
However, for cultivators who have left the ruin realm, when all the cultivation techniques have been incomplete, and when all the formation inheritances have no successors, only this soul suppression array is a formation that every cultivator must learn at the beginning.
This is a tradition that has been passed down for thousands of years in the Land of Ruins.
However, the more it came to the later period, the more unclear the cultivators were about the reason for this inheritance.
Now listening to Ma Fanyi, there is really a soul suppression array in this mysterious place, and the Empress Huaiyang is thoughtful.
"Why, do you know this formation?" Seeing the reaction of the Empress Huaiyang, Ma Fan was a little puzzled.
"Yes, this Soul Suppression Array is a formation that every cultivator must learn at the beginning, regardless of whether this cultivator is a formation cultivator or not. This tradition has been around for thousands of years..................."
"In that case, there is a reasonable explanation for the matter................... "Marfan muttered to himself.
There used to be a great war between humans and demons here, and there is also a soul suppression array here. All appearances show that the suppressor here is an extraordinary demon race, and the human cultivators at that time seem to be powerless to destroy this demon race, at most they can only suppress it here. In order to prevent the demons who were suppressed by the Soul Suppression Array from escaping in the future, the Terran cultivators set up a rule, all Terran cultivators must learn and master the Soul Suppression Array, and only in this way can they prevent the demons from breaking through the Soul Suppression Formation, thus causing disaster to the Terrans.
"What kind of demon race is it that would make the human race tens of thousands of years ago helpless, so they can only make this decision and fight a protracted war with this demon race?" Ma Fan began to have some interest in this demon clan suppressed by the Soul Suppression Array.
"You mean................. There's a demon clan suppressed here? Empress Huaiyang heard it from Ma Fan's self-talk.
"Yes.................. I wonder if this Leaving the Ruins Realm Cultivation Realm has some information about this suppressed demon race? Ma Fan asked.
"In addition to the requirement that we must master the Soul Suppression Array, there is also a saying that in the 7,680th year of the Lihe Calendar, the Leaving Ruins Realm will encounter great changes....................... Moreover, this great change seems to be related to the human world.................... However, despite this legend, it is not clear whether this legendary change is a blessing or a curse.................. Therefore, more than a thousand years ago, just in case, the major cultivation sects of the Leaving the Ruins Realm discussed together to simply close the passage between the Human Realm and the Leaving the Ruins Realm, so as to completely cut off the future troubles....................."
Ma Fan suddenly realized at this moment, why a thousand years ago, the passage between the human realm and the ruin realm was suddenly closed, it turned out to be this reason!
"Let's go, let's go up and have a look!" Ma Fan pondered for a moment and decided to go and find out.
As the formation master of the Haotian Continent, Ma Fan can be said to be very familiar with this kind of soul suppression array.
Empress Huaiyang nodded, followed behind Ma Fan, and slowly walked towards the gossip-shaped building in front of her.
Ma Fan didn't dare to break this Soul Suppression Array, because with his formation attainments, he quickly found a passage from the Soul Suppression Array. This passage was also left by the people who set up the formation, in order to allow the human race cultivators to enter the large array from time to time to check the situation.
The two of them passed through the entrance of the formation, and on the wall of the Bagua-shaped stone building in front of them, a rectangular doorway quietly appeared.
Ma Fan took the hand of the Empress Huaiyang and stepped into the door.
Entering the big array, the Empress Huaiyang found that this gossip-shaped building, which didn't look big, actually had a cave in it.
The passage of more than 1,000 meters twists and turns, and after passing through the passage, Ma Fan and the Empress Huaiyang entered a space full of dazzling light.
This is a space with a radius of 100 meters.
Hundreds of crystals as large as eggs reflect the sunlight shining from the top of the stone chamber, illuminating the entire stone chamber brightly.
Ma Fan and Empress Huaiyang, who had just entered the stone room, only felt a flower in front of them, and after their eyes returned to normal, they found that there were eight metal chains as thick as arms hanging in the bright stone room!
The ten metal chains are completely dark and appear to be non-reflective, and it is immediately clear that they are not made of ordinary metal.
However, Ma Fan is no stranger to this thing.
"Extraterrestrial Meteorite!" Ma Fan blurted out.
These eight thick metal chains are really iron chains forged from meteoric iron outside the sky.
Empress Huaiyang followed Ma Fan's eyes and saw that although the eight meteorite chains were all black, there was a faint silver light. If you look closely, it is actually countless ancient characters reflecting silver light.
These characters are the components of the Soul Suppression Array.
This kind of iron chain cast by meteoric iron, on which several formations are applied by the Terran cultivators, can firmly lock the soul of the demon race, and it is a sharp weapon specially used to suppress the soul of the demon race.
Looking down along the meteoric iron chain, the Empress Huaiyang only saw a few iron chains converging on a pitch-black object in the middle of the stone room.
Around the black object, scattered scattered were several human skeletons, which looked to have been dead for hundreds of years.
Bursts of dark mist escaped from the chains.
Empress Huaiyang was curious, but suddenly felt an extremely cold mist coming towards her body.
The fog was erratic, but the speed was extremely fast, and this cold feeling made the body of the Empress Huaiyang seem to be frozen in an instant, and she couldn't move at all.
"Ma Fan......................" Empress Huaiyang was horrified, and was about to open her mouth to remind Ma Fan to be careful, but suddenly heard a cold snort from Ma Fan's mouth.
With Ma Fan's cold snort, a warm feeling quickly spread throughout his body, dispelling the feeling of extreme cold just now.
And the black mist that was rushing towards him just now disappeared in this instant.
Turning his head, he saw Ma Fan looking at the black object in front of him with a calm face.
"Hey, I can't imagine that tens of thousands of years have passed, and there are still people in the human race who are not afraid of my demonic energy?" A dull sound came from the black object.
"Be careful!" Empress Huaiyang subconsciously moved closer to Ma Fan's side and blocked in front of Ma Fan.
His cultivation is higher than Ma Fan's, and the first thought of the Empress Huaiyang at this time is to protect Ma Fan's safety.
Ma Fan saw the subconscious action of the Empress Huaiyang, and his heart warmed.
This woman actually plans to protect herself as soon as possible!
However, is Ma Fan a man who needs to rely on women for protection? He pulled the Empress Huaiyang behind him and gently squeezed her little hand, signaling her to rest assured.
Then, a spirit rune suddenly appeared in Ma Fan's other hand. He threw the talisman into the air, flicked his fingers, and a little blue flame ignited the talisman in an instant.
The spirit rune shone brightly, illuminating the entire stone chamber as if it were daylight in an instant.
Wait for the light to fade. The dark object in the stone chamber was gone, replaced by a monster with a dragon's body and a human head. The massive human head occupies almost a third of the length of the dragon, and the human head is crowned with two long horns.
"What should I be, it's just a magic dragon!" When Ma Fan saw the true body of this demon, he recognized it at a glance.
It turned out that the soul locking array at the top of this test bench was actually suppressed by a demon dragon.
The Demon Dragon is a high-level demonic beast of the Demon Clan, and it can be called the nobility of the Demon Clan. For a long time, the demon clan has been under the rule of several demon nobles, and these demon nobles include the demon dragon clan.
The strength of the demon dragon is strong, and the real body is even more difficult to kill, unless the master of the human race kills with a crushing advantage, he can only rely on the formation to wear down the cultivation of the demon dragon in the long years, and let the demon dragon slowly perish on its own.
However, the Terran Soul Locking Array could only suppress the Demon Dragon, and could not consume the Demon Dragon's cultivation.
Therefore, what is usually accompanied by the Soul Locking Array is the Demon Slaying Array.
However, Ma Fan had just confirmed again and again that there was only a Soul Locking Array here, and there was no Demon Destroying Array.
In this regard, Ma Fan was also puzzled.
"Hahaha, I didn't expect that thousands of years have passed, and I originally thought that the human race here is getting weaker and weaker, but I didn't expect to meet a person who knows goods today! It's a little interesting, it's a little interesting! Seeing Ma Fan, the demon dragon immediately revealed his origin, and he was not angry but happy.
"Ma Fan, this .................. What's going on? The Empress Huaiyang on the side asked puzzledly.
Although the demon dragon that suddenly revealed its true body looked only about ten meters long, it was not the size of its body. Because these eight thick meteorite chains not only suppressed the demon dragon's divine soul, but also firmly locked the demon dragon's true body, and shrunk its true body to a length of about ten meters.
In fact, the true body of the demon dragon is hundreds of meters long, and a human head alone is more than ten meters long.
Empress Huaiyang was very nervous at this time. Although she already knew Ma Fan's identity, the Empress Huaiyang was very worried in her heart, this huge mysterious formation actually suppressed such a monster, which made her feel deeply worried.
"It's just a demon dragon, and it has been suppressed for tens of thousands of years, so there's nothing to be afraid of at this time!" Ma Fan said softly.
"Hmph, what a big breath! Terran boy, don't think that you can make me show my true body, you are amazing, believe it or not, I swallowed you and the delicately skinned and tender mother-in-law next to me in one gulp!" The dragon shook its head, spewing fishy gas from its mouth.
"You evil dragon, don't you think that the human race really has nothing to do with you?" Ma Fan snorted coldly.
Although the demon dragon in front of him has been suppressed by the Soul Suppression Array for tens of thousands of years, the Demon Destroying Array that originally accompanied the Soul Suppression Array has disappeared, and I don't know if it was not there at the beginning, or if it didn't exist later. However, this demon dragon's cultivation at this time was still enough to kill all the cultivation masters in the ruins in an instant, including Ma Fan himself.
Although his cultivation at this time was not enough to kill this demon dragon, Ma Fan could still use other methods to kill the demon dragon's body.
As for the Demon Dragon's Divine Soul, since the main body can be destroyed, this Divine Soul is not to be feared.
However, Ma Fan does not intend to use other means at this moment.
After all, his own secret could not have been revealed so quickly.
Moreover, through today's events, Ma Fan can almost conclude that there have been human cultivation masters in this ruin realm before, and even the realm of these masters is not under the Mahayana period. Therefore, whether the master of the Mahayana period who is now leaving the ruins realm is still there, Ma Fan does not know.
If these Mahayana masters are still alive, then even if they have these high-tech equipment and weapons, they will have no chance of winning against these human Mahayana masters, and then they will be completely in danger and passivity.
So, now is not the time for Ma Fan to expose his hole cards.
This is also Ma Fan's experience in the Haotian Continent's cultivation realm for thousands of years.
After all, human nature is the most complex and unpredictable, and it is far easier to deal with demon masters than against human races.
