Chapter 288: The Rock Formation
Behind the Monkey King, there were only entered-level demon monkeys, two of which were second-order demon monkeys, six first-order demon monkeys, and the one that had been repelled by Qin Ruyan before was among them. The rest are all ordinary demon monkeys that have not yet entered the ranks, and hundreds of them gather together, making people's scalps tingle.
The third-order demon monkey is equivalent to a cultivator in the late stage of qi refining, and that one monkey king alone can make it difficult for Qingyang and their group to deal with, if you add the two second-order demon monkeys equivalent to the middle stage of qi refining and the six first-order demon monkeys equivalent to the early stage of qi refining, Qingyang and they will only have to escape. What's more, there are countless ordinary demon monkeys around to help, fortunately, everyone didn't follow Qin Ruyan's idea just now, otherwise I'm afraid that the whole army will be wiped out at this time.
It is impossible to fight hard, everyone has discussed the strategy before, and when the group of demon monkeys appeared, everyone hurriedly flashed to the side and hid in a hidden place. At this time, Qin Ruyan took out a jade talisman from his body, and his true qi was excited, and a faint mist emanated from the jade talisman, which gradually shrouded everyone's surroundings.
In the blink of an eye, a magical change occurred nearby, and the seven figures suddenly disappeared from front of their eyes, leaving only a faint mist around them.
This jade talisman is a self-defense treasure given to her by Qin Ruyan's grandfather, Qingjing Sanren, which has the effect of concealing her whereabouts and is extremely precious. After the jade talisman is activated, it will release a faint mist, hiding everything within a radius of one or two zhang around, not only can it avoid the observation of the eyes, but also shield the divine thoughts of monks and demon beasts from peeping, which is extremely magical.
Of course, this jade talisman also has a disadvantage, that is, after being stimulated, the hidden people and things cannot make the slightest sound, nor can they have any movements, otherwise they will still be detected by the opponent, so it is okay for a short time, and no one can hold on for a long time.
A group of demon monkeys came violently, but when they came closer, they didn't find anything, although the monkey king was puzzled, but after looking nearby for a long time, he didn't find the enemy's whereabouts, thinking that the enemy had fled, so he sent an evil fire to the monkeys behind him, and turned around and returned to the cave.
After all, the wisdom of demon beasts is limited, and if other monks encounter this kind of strange thing, they may search around, or even send someone to guard here, and they will always find out. Demon beasts are different, they are simple-minded, and they can't think of it so deep, not to mention that after the Monkey King came out, the guards on the other side of the cave were weak, and it would be bad if someone took advantage of the loophole, so they hurried back.
However, after delaying for such a long time, it was enough for Deng Changting to set up a formation near the demon monkey cave, seeing the monkeys leaving, Qin Ruyan collected the jade talisman in his hand, the faint mist around him dissipated, and everyone's figures also appeared in place.
The original plan that everyone had discussed was that Qin Ruyan and the others would attract a large group of demon monkeys to the past, and Deng Changting would take this opportunity to set up a formation near the demon monkey cave, and then light the demon incense. When the monkeys couldn't find Qin Ruyan and the others to go back, they would definitely be attracted when they smelled the demon incense, and then they were trapped in the formation.
Of course, the Monkey King can't be obedient, he will definitely destroy the formation inside, and even launch a group of monkeys to break the formation together, during which Deng Changting is under great pressure, and everyone must rush over to help as soon as possible. However, it is very important to grasp the timing at this time, it is too early to go, the Monkey King may not be in the plan, it is too late, if the formation is broken, everything will fall short, and even Deng Changting may encounter danger.
After appearing, everyone walked forward cautiously, for fear that the movement would be too great, and then recruit back the monkeys who had already left, causing the plan to fail.
Walked forward for hundreds of feet, and suddenly, there was a long howl in front, it was Deng Changting's voice, this was the signal he agreed with everyone, indicating that the Monkey King had been tempted by the demon incense, and was trapped in the formation, and everyone needed to rush over to help as soon as possible.
Hearing the whistling, Qin Ruyan took the lead and rushed in the direction where the sound came from, her two maids were no exception, tightly guarding Qin Ruyan's left and right, Qingyang, Hou Jiangong and others were also like the wind under their feet, and hurriedly followed behind them.
At this time, everyone was less than a hundred zhang away from the mountain that Hou Jiangong said, just a rush, and came to the top of the mountain, and then swept his eyes to the side, and he could see a huge demon monkey cave on the side of the mountain wall, which was only more than a mile away from everyone.
On the west side of the cave, less than a hundred zhang away, hundreds of demon monkeys are besieging a formation, but because the scope of the formation is too large, the demon monkeys can't get close, and the demon monkeys don't understand the formation, so they can only rely on violence to break it, and the formation is worry-free for the time being.
Inside the formation, the three demon monkeys were in a hurry, attacking the formation a few times from time to time, but there was no order. The outside can see the inside of the formation, but the demon monkey in the formation can't see the outside, and the monkey king is also the first time to encounter this situation, as if suddenly the world has changed, and the demon monkey is helpless, and can only attack indiscriminately like a headless fly.
Behind a boulder not far from the formation, Deng Changting was sitting cross-legged, holding a small order flag in his hand, mobilizing the true qi of his body, and constantly instilling it into the formation flag. And Deng Changzhu was guarding the side, carefully guarding the surroundings, so as not to be attacked by other demon monkeys when Deng Changting was presiding over the formation.
Deng Changting's formation is called Rock Formation, it is a purely defensive formation, it is said that the formation is as solid as a rock after being stimulated, whether it is inside or outside, it is difficult to break it with violence, and the effect of trapping the enemy is excellent. However, the disadvantage is also obvious, that is, it consumes extremely energy and true qi.
Low-level formations must be controlled by someone, and Deng Changting, as the master of the formation, must input true qi into the formation flag from time to time to offset the energy consumed by the formation when the demon monkey attacks.
The power of the Rock Formation is amazing, before the formation, Deng Changting felt that his Rock Formation was enough to trap the Monkey King for a long time, but when it was really implemented, he knew that he had underestimated the consumption of the True Qi of the Rock Formation, under the crazy attack of the demon monkeys inside and outside, it was just a cup of tea, and the True Qi in Deng Changting's body had dropped by two percent.
In fact, this can't be completely blamed on him, originally he only planned to trap the monkey king, who knew that the demon incense was too powerful, not only attracted the monkey king, but the two second-order demon monkeys beside him also pounced despite the warning of the monkey king, so when the formation was activated, they were all trapped inside, and the three demon monkeys attacked at the same time, and the kind of consumption can be imagined.
Of course, it is also beneficial that things become like this, there are more trapped demon monkeys, there will be less interference outside, and it will be much easier for the six first-order demon monkeys to deal with. As long as everyone moves quickly, they should be able to complete the task before the Monkey King breaks the formation. 11
