Chapter 103: The Second Phantom Maze
......
The medicinal liquid absorbed by the animal skin was actually a matter that Yi Ting spent several months before it was finally refined, and its main raw material was the silver Ling snake venom that was hard squeezed out of Xiao Ling's body. It is recommended to read the novel for the first time
Of course, 'hard squeezing' is just a way to describe the difficulty, not that Yi Ting really abused and persecuted his pet beast, but for this small bottle of liquid, Xiao Ling paid three full body venom.
And every time you have to rest for more than a month, you have to take a tonic from time to time to swallow a large number of blood toads on the back of the blood tumor, in order to accelerate the replenishment of venom in the body.
The venom of the silver ling snake cannot poison people, but just by licking it on the skin of the snake letter, the monk in the forging period will have to be unconscious for most of the day, and if he is really bitten directly, at least three times before he can wake up.
However, the hell demon dog used to deal with the five grades, of course, can't ask Xiaoling to sneak to his side in person, lick or bite, not to mention that the venom on Xiaoling's body is not enough to deal with the six-headed demon beast in one go.
In case he is accidentally detected by the Hell Demon Dog, then Xiao Ling, who is currently only equivalent to a second-grade strength demon beast, will definitely not even have the slightest chance of escaping.
Therefore, since Yi Ting knew that there was an ambush of the Hell Demon Dog here nearly a year ago, he began to follow the instructions of the Ice Emperor and look around for materials that could be applied.
The venom of the silver rhododium snake, normally speaking, once it comes into contact with the air in isolation, it will quickly deteriorate and dissipate, and it cannot be taken out and stored in advance, and it will be used only in an emergency.
However, the method was finally figured out by people, and with the experience and wisdom of the Ice Emperor, even if he couldn't think of a way to preserve the venom of the silver lingsnake snake, there must be other ways that could be used to contain the six-headed hell demon dogs guarding the door.
So fortunately, Yi Ting didn't search for long, and near the area infested by the Sanpin Demon Beast, he found a 'rǔ gum vine' plant, whose rhizome was filled with translucent rǔ-like gum, and injected the venom of the silver ling snake into it, which could completely isolate the air from the outside.
Of course, this is not enough, because the venom of this silver rhombus does not directly contact the body of the hell demon dog, so after finding a lot of tasteless and tasteless magic herbs, after many tests, it was finally melted into this small bottle of tasteless medicine.
In addition to maintaining the characteristics of rapid volatilization, this medicinal liquid is more powerful and long-lasting than the original Yinling snake venom, so although it is only spread through the conduction of the air, as long as the six-headed hellhounds take a sip, they will have to sleep for at least an hour or two.
However, for the sake of safety, Yi Ting still used up the entire vial of medicinal liquid, and used the strong adsorption ability of the special animal skin, so that the medicinal power could be slowly dissipated.
Therefore, the potency of this whole bottle of potion will not be too much of a problem until dawn, and if anyone enters this stone chamber before then, they will definitely be hit one after another, and they will pass out and fall into a deep sleep.
......
Although Yi Ting relied on the third layer of the Hidden Qi Technique, he was able to ambush through the induction of the six-headed Hell Demon Dog.
But the reason why it took so much effort to stun it was that once he stepped into the stone gate passage, he would trigger the phantom array inside it to start running, and it was difficult to ensure that the hell demon dog would not notice it, and then notify the guards to come in and inspect, and then it would really become a turtle in the urn.
So after waiting for a quarter of an hour, to make sure that all the hellhounds had fallen asleep, they dared to swagger into the stone door.
The phantom maze array here is one that has reached the strength of the second grade, and since the purpose of this array is mainly to lure the intruders into gradually stepping into death without realizing it, it is naturally very well hidden.
If it weren't for Yi Ting's knowledge of the existence of this array, it would have been difficult for him to detect the surrounding Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi if he had entered it with full concentration, and there were some unnatural fluctuations.
The passage was dim and lightless, and after only a distance of more than ten zhang, it turned and connected to another large underground secret passage dozens of zhang wide.
In the secret stone passage, just like when the confinement tower first invaded the underground, it was similar to the hundred-zhang passage in which it was located, and at a distance of more than ten zhang, there would be a luminous crystal bead illuminating, although the brightness was very weak, but it was not as good as the beginning of entering the stone room, and there was not even half a trace of brightness.
If it were another intruder, they would have thought that they had found another secret passage, and with the experience of sneaking around before, they would have subjectively concluded that this place was the same as before, and there was nothing strange or inappropriate.
But Yi Ting knew very well that he was already trapped in the phantom array at this moment.
With the previous few years of painstaking study of the way of the formation, Yi Ting would no longer whimsically use his spiritual sense to forcibly fill the entire illusion array like when he first encountered the talent maze of the Seven Illusion Crocodile Lizard Eel.
Because to be precise, the phantom array distributed by the alligator eel is only a superficial self-defense ability given by its innate ability, and it can't even be called a first-class phantom array, so the complexity is only equivalent to an entry-level formation.
Now that he has penetrated into the large phantom array of the second grade, even if Yi Ting's spiritual sense is completely emanated, he can only touch the thousandth of the change of this phantom array, and he will never be able to escape the blockade of the entire phantom array.
Being in the phantom array or maze is equivalent to entering another space, in fact, Yi Ting has traveled hundreds of zhang away in the phantom array, but if he breaks out of the phantom array by himself, he will still be located near the passage that first entered the stone gate.
However, the scope of the phantom array is very large, as long as you fall into this phantom array and are lured to a specific direction, you may end up directly entering a dead place outside.
It could be a sturdy cell, or a secret room filled with poisonous gas or venom, or a few hungry high-level demon beasts, or a nest of poisonous insects that tens of thousands of people bite at sight.
However, in the eyes of Yi Ting, who was new to the mysteries of the formation, many changes between the virtual and the real were already able to catch one or two, although he was going to talk about breaking the formation now, and it was still a second-grade phantom maze, which was still far from it.
It's just that under the leadership of the Ice Emperor, many key hidden flaws have been exposed one by one, and at the same time, the Ice Emperor will occasionally explain the tricks according to Yi Ting's reaction.
The purpose is not to teach Yi Ting how to break the formation, because it is not much different from teaching children who are still eating nǎi to learn to fly, but it has indescribable benefits for Yi Ting to further improve the level of the formation.
The Ice Emperor opened his mouth and explained: "All kinds of magic arrays have their own characteristics and purposes, and the purpose of the phantom maze array here is not to block the enemy from the outside, but to lure the enemy deep into it, so the hidden bits and pieces of the killing machine in the array are not revealed, and only when they step into the killing position will they completely detonate the power contained in it at once." ”
"For example, the small seven-star hidden dragon array you obtained, because it has to be refined into a magic weapon, it usually has to be simplified a lot, and only retains a simple protective function. ”
"However, like the second-grade phantom maze here, it also combines the trapped array and the killing array, first to lure the enemy, and then make it deeper and deeper, and when you find that something is wrong, even if you are not in the killing array, you are already trapped in the trapped array and difficult to escape. ”
Yi Ting listened intently to the Ice Emperor's explanation, while closely sensing the subtle changes in the Phantom Maze.
