Sudden accidents force the team to change their plan of action.

But that doesn't mean they have to leave the stupa.

On the one hand, the Buddha statue still has a suppressive effect on the evil and weirdness in Jingjiang Town, and it will take time for Zhao Qianwu to recover from his injuries, at least for now, the pagoda is still a good refuge.

On the other hand, even if they finally adopted Yu Zhen's suggestion, they had to make sure that the pagoda could support it for a while longer, otherwise they would have to face many evils and weirdness when they were hit by many evils in the middle of the year.

Time came to the afternoon.

Yan Jing stood in front of the windowsill of the corridor on the second floor, watching the rain expand again.

The expected pursuit still didn't happen, which made him feel more and more that something was wrong.

What exactly is He Jianbing doing?

Knowing that Zhao Qianwu had basically lost his combat effectiveness in a short period of time, this should be a good opportunity to attack, Yan Jing had even thought about how to deal with it once He Jianbing rushed to the pagoda with a group of evil and weird.

In fact, he was somewhat expecting He Jianbing to come.

The remaining power inside the stupa can help them suppress the evil spirits, and this will be one of the few opportunities for them to fight back.

The enemies that hide in the shadows like poisonous snakes are undoubtedly more disturbing.

Looking down at the cracked Buddha head in his hand, his mind remembered the changes it had made at midnight last night and the abilities it had shown today.

Since it can defend against evil energy, it should be a precious item.

Why is it so that it can still show the appearance of evil......

"Daoist Luo, I need your help."

Yu Zhen's shout came from behind him, interrupting Yan Jing's thinking, turning to look down, only to see her standing in the main hall and shouting,

"I'm going to conduct a test of the Seal Town inside the stupa, and I need someone to help!"

Yu Ke was assisting Zhao Qianwu in treating the wound for the second time to ensure that there would be no wound infection, and Yan Jing was still idle in the tower.

It just so happened that Yan Jing also wanted to see what the sealing circle in this pagoda looked like, so he nodded decisively.

Following Yu Zhen into a room on the inside of the pagoda, there was a staircase leading to the underground level of the pagoda.

The two of them each held torches, and fine dust particles scattered as far as the fire could reach.

"It's one o'clock in the afternoon, and in eleven hours is the Midyear Festival, and according to the monks, the magistrates will forgive their sins and open the door to ghosts...... The power of the Buddha statue has been weakened, and the three-headed evil that was once sealed here will take the opportunity to lead other monsters to attack the stupa. ”

Walking halfway down, Yu Zhen talked about what might happen next, paused, and continued,

"I arranged some magic circles around the pagoda this morning, originally to deal with monsters, but now there is one more He Jianbing, if you want to enhance the defense of the pagoda, you can only do your best to repair the sealing array."

"I remember you said yesterday that there is not much time left, is it too late?"

Of course, Yan Jing also knew that repairing the sealing array could play a big role, so he couldn't help but ask.

"No, you misunderstood what I meant, the sealing array in the pagoda is seriously damaged, the materials are insufficient, and it is impossible for a few of us to complete the repair in more than ten hours."

"Then what you just said ......"

"The restoration I'm talking about is trying to restore the underground sealing array, rubbing it down, and then making a small sealing array in other places that doesn't require so many materials and is exquisitely arranged."

Yu Zhen took out a scroll from his torch space, looked at Yan Jing and said,

"It may not be able to completely suppress evil like the original, but it can weaken their ability to add to the success of our actions."

"Sounds good, why didn't you say it last night?"

"I wasn't sure if I could restore it, but I didn't complete part of the test until this morning, and even if it's an improved version, it still consumes a lot of things, and certain conditions have to be met."

As they spoke, the two had already walked to the bottom of the stairs, and Yu Zhen was still walking in front with a torch held high.

Seeing the surrounding situation clearly through the firelight, Yan Jing's eyes couldn't help but show a little surprise.

The underground level of the stupa was far grander than he had imagined.

After all, the part on the ground is an ordinary three-story stupa, which is still a broken version.

However, when he arrived here, Yan Jing suddenly realized that this underground layer might be the essence of the entire stupa.

Within a few tens of meters that the firelight can illuminate.

There are Buddha statues or Arhat statues in various postures, each of which is extremely finely carved and arranged in a specific pattern, and under the light of the fire, they seem to be soldiers on duty here, and the treasure is solemn.

It was only as he stepped forward that Yan Jing quickly noticed that a considerable number of Arhat statues had been damaged or even collapsed.

"These Arhat statues should be array eyes, and the array plate is at our feet, Luo Daochang, this box is a spirit crystal, I need you to place them on each Arhat statue, there can be no mistakes."

Handing Yan Jing the wooden box filled with thumb-sized crystals, Yu Zhen himself took out a brass object that resembled a compass.

Yan Jing glanced at Yu Zhen with some surprise.

The props in her hand were obviously not what a person who only dabbled in formation should have.

There is no doubt that Yu Zhen should have expertise in formations, and he was just hiding clumsy before.

According to Yu Zhen's request, he placed the spirit crystal, and in the process of walking around with a torch, Yan Jing's gaze also shifted from the surrounding Arhat statues to the area under his feet, not to mention the array plate of hundreds of square meters.

Although the scope illuminated by the torches was limited, Yan Jing still noticed that the surface of the array disk was not the various lines and spiritual energy paths imagined, but the drawings that were momented on the floor.

It looks like a "gathering" of Buddhas, and in the center of the area is a statue of a Buddha sitting upright, as if performing some kind of ritual.

Yan Jing really didn't have much research on Buddhism, so he could only temporarily write down the general content of the drawings and prepare to go back and look up the Buddhist scriptures.

"By the way, you just said that the improved version of the circle needs to meet some conditions if it wants to be used, what is it?"

Stuffing a spirit crystal into the eye frame of the Arhat statue, Yan Jing looked at Yu Zhen on the other side, who was already meditating and unfolding the scroll, and asked.

"One is that you need to do the initial arrangement by hand, although you don't need an Arhat statue, but at least there must be a substitute as the eye of the array, and second, and most importantly, as the core of the operation of the circle, you need the will to be able to suppress the evil spirits!"

Placing the compass in the center of the scroll, Yu Zhen raised his hand and pointed to the ceiling, patiently explaining,

"The reason why the sealing array is built directly below the Buddha statue is precisely because the power of the Buddha itself is the core of the entire magic circle that is needed for the operation of the entire magic circle, if this condition cannot be achieved, even if we get closer to the improvement, it will have no effect."

"The problem is that the monk above said that the remaining wishing power in the Buddha statue has disappeared over the years, and whether we can use it or not, even if there is a way, the stupa from which the willing power is extracted will completely lose the ability to suppress the evil spirits, and this place will be immediately flattened by them!"

After listening to Yu Zhen's plan, Yan Jing was a little disappointed.

If the premise of arranging the improved version of the sealing array was to destroy the pagoda, then the arrangement they had made here before would be completely meaningless.

"What if we could gather a new source of Willpower?"

Yu Zhen asked suddenly.

"Do you have a way?"

Raising his eyebrows slightly, Yan Jing asked.

"According to my observations, the worship of evil cults by most residents in Jingjiang Town is not due to their personal beliefs or moral values, let alone their wholehearted devotion to it, but more from the irresistibility of authoritarianism and the influence of special circumstances."

When it comes to his own professional field, Yu Zhen talks eloquently.

"Say something I can understand."

"The worship of evil in Jingjiang townspeople is nothing more than two factors, fear and environment, we can't change the environment, after all, we are now under the influence of intellectual erosion, so only fear remains, I want to do a test."

Raising two fingers and taking back another one, Yu Zhen stared at Yan Jing, his eyes flashing with some strange light under the firelight, and what he had to say was a bit like the eyes of a scientific researcher looking at a guinea pig,

"Since evil spirits can convince the townsfolk through fear, can people do it?"

"Hey, you're not going to ......"

"According to the monks, the power of wish comes from the pious prayers of the people, which should not be possible for human beings themselves, because after all, people are only human beings, and they cannot be worshiped by other people as gods, let alone transformed and extracted this power, just as those evil spirits cannot use this power even if they are worshipped, at most they can bewitch the townspeople to meet their needs."

Pointing to the scroll and compass in front of him, Yu Zhen continued,

"You're different, last night you fought and won in front of the townspeople, twisting its head off and kicking it as a ball, and those last words, maybe you just wanted to end their evil ritual this way, but it was an order for those people...... The order of the new Hebo! ”

Speaking of this, Yu Zhen's meaning couldn't be clearer.

With the help of the special environment created by the evil cult and the sealing array, with Yan Jing as the core of operation, as long as he can receive the wish power from the townspeople, even if he can't use it at all, he can still activate the sealing array!

"I don't think a few words can tell them to do something."

Yan Jing still thinks that Yu Zhen's ideas are somewhat out of reality.

"Based on the current situation, this is undoubtedly a method worth trying, and as for whether it will succeed, you have to try it to know."

Yu Zhen's hands were sealed on his chest, and the surrounding Arhat statues were shining.

No longer talking to Yan Jing, Yu Zhen chanted an obscure incantation in a low voice.

In an instant, the spirit crystals placed by Yan Jing on the Arhat statues everywhere shone brightly, and in a short time they were connected to each other into a array.

The scroll and compass were suspended in mid-air, and the arcane circle spread across the entire underground layer.

Yan Jing looked up at the fantastic scene in front of him, thinking in his heart about the feasibility of Yu Zhen's words just now.

I have to admit it.

With the situation they are facing, they do need to consider any way to enhance their chances of victory.
