At night, it is very quiet to kill the city, especially in the middle of the night, no movement can be heard, and it is like a dead city.

Because he knew the real reason why Lizhicheng became what it is now, Ling Zheng didn't seem to be too surprised, and after following Huang Ting for a while, he came to a three-story stone tower in the center of Lizhicheng.

Ling Zheng had seen a nine-story tower, a six-story tower, and a three-hundred-and-sixty-five-story giant tower from Dengxian City, but he had never seen a three-story tower.

As if seeing Ling Zheng's doubts, Huang Ting explained on the side: "This tower is nine floors, with three floors on the surface and six floors underground. This is where the seniors of the city lived, and no one was allowed to enter. ”

Walked to the door of the stone tower, and before Ling Zheng could ask how to enter, the door of the stone tower opened silently.

"It seems that the elder is already waiting, Ling Zheng, let's go in. Huang Ting said: "Elder Xing is one of the elders in charge of the daily affairs of the city, although he is not the highest in the city, but his words carry a lot of weight. And he doesn't have a very good temper, but he doesn't have any bad intentions, and if he says anything unpleasant, I hope you don't mind.

Ling Zheng nodded, and then followed Huang Ting into the stone tower.

After entering the stone tower, Ling Zheng felt the breath of the formation. Upon closer inspection, it was found that the walls and pillars inside the stone tower were inscribed with a very strange-looking formation. This kind of formation pattern Ling Zheng had never seen at all, but there was still a formation aura released, which attracted Ling Zheng's attention.

"I take the liberty of asking, Brother Huang. Ling Zheng pointed to the formation pattern on a stone pillar and said, "Is the formation pattern here left by the senior formation mage who originally arranged the city foundation array?"

Huang Ting nodded: "Exactly, this stone tower was built at the suggestion of that senior, originally the nine-story stone tower was all underground, but because the formation pattern of the city foundation array gradually dissipated, the stone tower only then emerged from the third layer of the surface." ”

"Oh?" Ling Zheng frowned when he heard this: "Could this stone tower be where the eye of the formation is?"

Huang Ting nodded, and before he could say anything, a deep voice sounded:

"Although this formation mage is young, his eyesight is good. ”

Ling Zheng was stunned for a moment, and after turning around, he realized that there was no longer an old man in gray behind him.

The old man had gray hair and wrinkles on his face, and he was obviously not young. Although he looks gray, his eyes are frighteningly sharp, and his eyes seem to be burning with two fires, which is very imposing.

After carefully looking at the old man a few times, Ling Zheng found that the clothes on the old man's body were originally yellow, but it seemed that because they had not been washed for a long time, or because they had been washed too many times, they had lost their original color.

"Hello seniors, I'm Ling Zheng, the heir of the White Array Gate. Ling Zheng arched his hand at the old man and reported to himself.

"White Array Gate?" After the old man heard this, his face suddenly showed joy: "But Jiang Yizhen is in the White Array Gate?"

Jiang Yizhen?

Ling Zheng is no stranger to this name, after the first battle of Beizhucheng, during the three years of seclusion in the valley, Zhang Taiyan told Ling Zheng the history of the White Array Gate, and also mentioned the name Jiang Yizhen many times.

Jiang Yizhen was the head of the White Formation Sect more than 10,000 years ago, and because of his clever formation skills and strange style, he was also named the "Ghost Array" by cultivators. But this number one formation genius in the history of the White Array Gate disappeared in his later years, and in the end, no one died, no one died, and no one knew where he went.

Ling Zheng nodded and said, "Exactly." Haven't you seen Senior Jiang?"

"I haven't seen it. The old man said: "But he died in our city, if you have time, you can go and worship." ”

Ling Zheng was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and instinctively was a little wary.

"Don't get me wrong, Jiang Yizhen's predecessor was willing to die here in order to study the city-based array. The old man smiled: "At the beginning, even though Jiang Yizhen's predecessors were more than 1,200 years old, they were still as rich as jade, and they were all his fanatical suitors from the old woman to the baby girl in the city. ”

"It's a pity that such a peerless figure didn't leave any descendants, I have to say it's a pity. ”

After listening to the old man's explanation, Ling Zheng's face was a little strange at first, and then he nodded.

"Since he is the same junior of Jiang Yizhen's predecessors, even if he is young, he should have good attainments in the formation path. The old man smiled: "The old man doesn't expect Xiaoyou to completely repair the big array, but it's good to delay it." If it drags on any longer, it will be a worrying situation for the killing city. ”

Huang Ting finally got a chance to speak, and hurriedly said: "This, Elder Torture, the array weapon used by Ling Zheng seems to be the gun used by the senior who arranged the city-based formation at the beginning!"

Elder Xing was stunned for a moment, and then grabbed Ling Zheng's arm, even if it was a strong body with no attribute spirit vein, it was caught by Elder Xing.

What kind of cultivation is this torture elder?!

Because there was no breath released from the people in the killing city, Ling Zheng no longer guessed.

"Little friend, can you show it and take a look?" Elder Punishment's eyes flashed, he was very excited, and his words trembled a little.

Ling Zheng did as he was told, summoning the Wanjun Spear from his body.

But this time, the Wan Jun Gun was not as silent as before, in this stone tower, the Wan Jun Gun seemed to sense something, and there were bursts of similar excitement fluctuations.

Elder Xing stared at Wan Jun's spear for a long time, and said softly: "It's really true, it was the formation mage back then, but it's a pity that the formation mage didn't tell the predecessor who left the killing city his name and the original name of this gun." ”

"The original name?" Ling Zheng asked, "What other names does this gun have?"

"Oh, after Jiang Yizhen's predecessor saw the portrait of that senior, he said that this gun is not small, and it is a well-known array murder weapon. Elder Xing said: "At the beginning, it seemed that it was called 'death induction' by the mainland array mages, which means that whoever controls it will die. But looking at Xiaoyou, you don't have anything to do, presumably those people should be exaggerating. ”

"Is there still a portrait of the predecessor who arranged the city-based array?" Ling Zheng hurriedly asked, "Is it an old man in a purple robe?"

"Purple robe?" Elder Xing shook his head after hearing this: "No, the portrait depicts a middle-aged man dressed in white with a refined temperament. ”

Ling Zheng didn't give up, feeling that since he could make the Wanjun gun fluctuate, there would definitely be some connection between the two.

"Then, can you take me to see that portrait?" Ling Zheng asked tentatively, knowing that the portrait of the array mage must be something very important in this Killing City.

Elder Xing smiled happily: "Of course you can, let's go, the old man will take you ...... now"

"Boom!"

Before he could finish speaking, the entire stone tower began to shake violently, and the formations on the walls of the stone tower and on the stone pillars began to flicker unsteadily, as if they might break free at any time.

Moreover, Ling Zheng clearly felt that the stone tower he was in now was slowly rising, descending, rising again, and then descending, fluctuating violently.

After a long time, the stone tower finally stabilized, but Wan Jun Spear trembled incessantly as if he had suddenly gone crazy, even if Ling Zheng wanted to take it into his body, he didn't stop calling at all.

"Without further ado, senior, please take me to see the Chengji Great Array first, the portrait of that senior, it's not too late to see it later. Ling Zheng said in a deep voice.

Elder Xing was also not ambiguous at all: "Okay, you come with me!"

With that, Elder Xing took Ling Zheng and Huang Ting and rushed to the lower floors of the stone tower.

It seems that in addition to the three layers on the surface, there are quite a few people in the six layers underground. Each of them was not young, and it seemed that they had not moved for a long time, and at first glance they looked like a large stone sculpture.

It seemed to feel the aura released from Ling Zheng's body, and the old men sitting cross-legged in the stone towers of several layers opened their eyes without exception after Ling Zheng, and the sharp and frightening gaze made Ling Zheng feel frightened for a while.

They are all masters! Cultivation is at least the Yuan Infant Realm!

Or, higher!

Ling Zheng was shocked in his heart, and he had a new understanding of the overall strength of this Killing City.

rushed all the way to the bottom of the stone tower without stopping, there were only three old people sitting here, but these three people looked younger than the old men seen in the previous stone towers.

"These three are the three city lords who left the killing city, and from left to right are the three seniors of Long Qian, Instant Star, and Floating Jiao. Elder Xing introduced: "The three city lords, this is Jiang Yizhen's predecessor's fellow junior, called Ling Zheng. He had the gun of the senior of the formation mage who had arranged the great formation of the city foundation in the first place. ”

The three old men slowly opened their eyes, and the old man named Instant Star in the middle said softly: "In that case, Xiaoyou, please enter the city base." But don't force it, if you feel the slightest mistake, you have to come out immediately. Otherwise, the three of us may not be able to protect you. ”

These three old men looked like ordinary mortal old men, but since they could sit at the bottom of the stone tower, they could know that their identities and strength were not ordinary without thinking about it.

Speaking of the instantaneous star, the dragon diving, and the three of them raised their hands to make a light mark, although the color was different, but the shape was the same. The light seal slowly flew to Ling Zheng's body, and then submerged into his body.

"Little friend, please. ”

As he spoke, the Instant Star City Lord raised his hand and tapped the ground, and then, the most central area of the stone tower began to sink slowly, revealing a deep hole with an eerie cold air emerging from time to time.

Ling Zheng nodded, then stood at the entrance of the cave and observed for a while, then jumped down with the Wanjun gun.

After Ling Zheng jumped down from the cave in the center of the stone tower, Elder Xing asked tentatively, "Three city lords, the reason for the shaking just now was ......"

"The ghost fog is very restless, and the city-based array is almost overwhelmed. Although there was no expression on the face of the Instant Star City Lord, everyone could hear the worry in his words: "Although it has always been said that the great array has dissipated by one percent, it has actually been corroded by the ghost fog by thirty percent. ”

"According to this trend, in another ten years, the Great Array will no longer exist, and we will completely become a ghost city when we leave the Killing City. ”

Elder Xing and Huang Ting both changed their faces.

The Instant Star City Lord was silent for a while, and then sighed: "You two, pass on my orders, and now start to transfer the three people in this fixed formation tower, and start preparing to let the people in the city move elsewhere." If you are prepared early, if something goes wrong at that time, you will save so many people from dying. ”

"But Ling Zheng, isn't he already ......," Huang Ting wanted to speak and stopped.

A wry smile appeared on the face of the Instant Star City Lord: "That kid has an unusual background, not only is he a non-attribute spirit vein, but he is also a fellow descendant of Jiang Yizhen's predecessors, but he is too young, and his formation attainments will definitely not be very high." ”

"We owe too much to Jiang Yizhen's predecessors from Killing City, so to speak, Jiang Yizhen's predecessors died of exhaustion in Killing City. The Instant Star City Lord said: "Since Senior Jiang is kind to us, if we let his fellow juniors put their lives in danger, it will be too much to say." ”

"After he comes up later, Huang Ting, you immediately send someone to take him and the other people who came with him away, without a moment's delay. ”

After the Instant Star City Lord finished speaking, Elder Xing and Huang Ting's faces were complicated, but they finally nodded.

The Instant Star City Lord smiled: "Our three old bones are guarding here, how long can we keep it." We've been here for so long that we have almost forgotten what it's like outside. Even if you die here, you deserve it. ”

Beside him, the two city lords also showed smiles on their faces, and the three city lords looked very free and easy, as if they had seen life and death very openly.

But in the next moment, the faces of the three city lords changed in unison.

"Oops, the mark is gone, that kid is in danger!"

The Instant Star City Lord said urgently: "Second and third, you guys are guarding here, I'll go down and take a look!"

He tried to rush into the burrow, but he didn't. Because the moment they felt the mark on Ling Zheng's body disappear, the hole in the ground disappeared silently. After that, no matter how the Instant Star City Lord opened it, the hole in the ground would not appear.

At the same time, Bi Qingtian, who was meditating cross-legged in the Huang Ting family's house, suddenly clenched his heart very tightly, and a suffocating tension instantly spread throughout his body.

She snapped her eyes open, her gaze uncertain and worried.
