Chapter 158: The First Obstacle

Penglai Xianzhou, also known as Penglai Island.

It is rumored that someone took a ship into the East China Sea and strayed into danger, with thousands of miles of mountains and rivers and no boundaries, so I felt that it was another world.

Later, there were countless strong people into the East China Sea to search, and if they really found, after hundreds of years of survey, they found that the so-called Penglai Island was actually a big ship, so it was also called Penglai Boat.

Of course, these are just legends, and no one is sure what the specific situation is, after all, there is no real record.

Everything is as Li Xiuping said, as he continued to move forward, after walking for about three hundred miles, he really encountered a dangerous situation, not that there was any terrible beast, but a large array to cut off the way forward, once he entered it, it would stimulate the operation of the large array.

Although Li Xiuping knew that there was a threat here, he didn't know what the specific danger was, nor did he know the specific location, so he touched the big array inexplicably.

After feeling the danger, Li Xiuping immediately reminded those monsters to retreat, but there were still two monsters who also entered the big array, and before they could react, one of the monsters was hit by the big array, if it weren't for Li Xiuping's quick eyes and pulling him aside, I am afraid that he would have been seriously injured on the spot.

After pulling the monster aside, Li Xiuping directly pulled out the firewood knife and continuously blocked the attacks of the formation, so that the two monsters could exit safely.

Soon, the two monsters and Li Xiuping left the range of the formation safely, and those monsters naturally breathed a sigh of relief.

The monster who was rescued by Li Xiuping didn't like Li Xiuping before, and at this moment he saluted Li Xiuping and said, "Thank you!" ”

Li Xiuping shook his head, his eyes staring ahead, as if he wanted to find something useful. It's a pity that as they left the formation, the formation was completely still, and there was no useful information at all.

Li Xiuping couldn't help frowning.

If this were another situation, he would still be able to solve it, but what appeared now was a formation, which was undoubtedly Li Xiuping's weakness.

If you want to talk about combat power, Li Xiuping is indeed very strong, not to mention the foundation building period, even in the Jindan period, there are few people who are his opponents, but in the face of such a thing as formation, Li Xiuping can be said to be helpless, because he has never studied the formation.

Could it be that as soon as he entered Penglai Xianzhou, he was about to be stopped by a formation?

Li Xiuping glanced back at those monsters and asked, "Which of you understands the formation?" ”

All the youkai looked at each other, then shook their heads at the same time.

Seeing these monsters shaking their heads, Li Xiuping's heart became more and more bitter.

Those monsters couldn't help frowning when they looked at Li Xiuping's expression.

When it comes to formations, Li Xiuping, a human monk, must know better than them, and they feel that this should be the reason why the mountain lord let Li Xiuping lead them into Penglai Xianzhou by a human being, but now it seems that this is obviously not the case, and this human monk doesn't seem to understand the formation either.

One of the youkai asked, "You don't understand either?" ”

Li Xiuping could only nod.

All the youkai's brows furrowed even deeper.

One of the youkai asked, "So what now, a different path?" ”

Li Xiuping shook his head and said: "There is only this road to go, and the danger in other places will only be greater than here." ”

Another monster stepped forward and said, "Since that's the case, let's break in." ”

All the youkai looked at the talking youkai with a stunned expression.

Li Xiuping nodded at this time and said, "Now there is only this way." ”

He continued, "I'll go to the facts, find a feasible way, and then you follow." ”

All the youkai were a little stunned.

After Li Xiuping finished speaking, he walked forward directly and entered the formation again.

As Li Xiuping guessed, as he entered the formation, the entire formation began to work, and those stones, plants, and trees attacked him in a specific trajectory.

The monsters outside looked at it and couldn't help but worry, but they soon showed admiration.

If Li Xiuping were to be replaced by themselves, they would not feel that they could be as relaxed as Li Xiuping.

Li Xiuping continued to move forward according to the trajectory he had figured out, if he could avoid it, he would avoid it directly, and if he couldn't avoid it, he would block it with a firewood knife in his hand, and leave some tracks on the ground for the reference of those monsters behind.

Li Xiuping soon discovered that this method would not work at all, because the trajectory he had groped out was not applicable at all, because the attack of the entire formation had no rules to follow.

After determining that it would not work, Li Xiuping withdrew the same way.

Watching Li Xiuping withdraw, those monsters all looked at him expectantly.

Li Xiuping shook his head and said: "This method won't work, I'm afraid the only way to break through is to break through." ”

A youkai said in a deep voice, "I'll come first." ”

Li Xiuping shook his head and said, "Assign it first, and try to ensure that you can pass through the formation safely." ”

The monsters asked, "How to distribute it?" ”

Li Xiuping said directly: "I need to know your specific strength. ”

All the youkai were stunned.

Li Xiuping explained: "The strongest go to the front, reduce the pressure on the back as much as possible, and then the back should also be distributed to ensure that the strength is balanced and that everyone has the ability to respond to the offensive of the formation." ”

All the monsters nodded, and then began to inform Li Xiuping of their strength.

According to the specific strength of these monsters, Li Xiuping divided these monsters into five groups, five groups, and the strength of the match varied from strength to strength, first picking out the ten strongest groups, and the rest were evenly matched, and then with the strongest fifty people, directly entered the formation, and forcibly broke into the formation.

Li Xiuping soon discovered that the more people who entered the formation, the stronger the offensive of the formation, and even he felt that it was a little difficult to parry.

Not long after the fifty people broke into the formation, some monsters were already injured, so Li Xiuping could only give up the idea of continuing to move forward and let all the monsters withdraw from the formation.

After all the monsters withdrew from the formation, their faces were ugly.

Before boarding the Penglai Immortal Boat, they were full of confidence, but now the first obstacle is so difficult, and it may even prevent them from moving forward, let alone the obstacles they encounter later.

All the monsters suddenly fell in confidence, as if they already had the intention of retreating.

Originally, they didn't like Li Xiuping, but at this moment, they all set their eyes on Li Xiuping and put their hopes on this human monk.

There is no doubt that it is now certain that Li Xiuping is the strongest existence among them, and if Li Xiuping has no choice, then there is really no way.

Li Xiuping felt the expectation of these monsters, and suddenly felt a lot of pressure.

In the past, he was a loner, and no one put hope on him, so naturally he didn't feel any pressure, but now that so many monsters were waiting for his instructions, an unprecedented sense of responsibility suddenly pressed on his shoulders.

Li Xiuping exhaled a long breath, looked at these monsters and said, "Now it can be determined that the offensive of this formation determines the strength of the offensive according to the strength and number of entrants, so if you want to pass through the formation, you can only act alone." ”

All the youkai were lost in thought, then nodded.

Although it is a demon, it can be selected by the entire demon clan and enter this Penglai Xianzhou, naturally they are the best among the demon clan, and they can naturally see some of the circumstances of this formation.

Li Xiuping continued: "Or I'll go first, I will suppress my strength as much as possible, if I can pass through, then you shouldn't have too many problems, if you really can't pass, it's not more reluctant, just quit and wait here." ”

All the youkai looked at each other.

After Li Xiuping finished speaking, he didn't say anything more and walked directly into the formation.

Previously, he was trying to test this formation, to find a feasible path for those monsters to pass through, and the reason why he withdrew was not because he couldn't pass, but because he found that the plan was not feasible, so he withdrew. Now that some of the rules of this formation have been determined, and it has been decided to go through this formation directly, naturally there will be no more hesitation.

Because he had entered the formation before, at the beginning, Li Xiuping easily dodged the attack of the formation, and then went all the way forward.

Li Xiuping soon discovered that the offensive of the formation was not based on the specific strength to determine the strength of the attack, but according to the level of the realm, so this level of attack was nothing to Li Xiuping.

However, Li Xiuping did not show all his strength, but controlled his strength at the usual fifth layer of the foundation building, in order to determine whether those monsters could also rely on their own strength to pass.

As he continued to move forward, Li Xiuping gradually felt a little struggling, but he still didn't use the extra strength, otherwise it would be much easier for Li Xiuping to pass this formation.

As he continued to move forward, he gradually went deeper into the formation, and he couldn't feel the breath of those monsters.

Li Xiuping said aloud: "Next." ”

After finishing speaking, Li Xiuping waited in place for a while, and after making sure that there were monsters entering the formation, he continued to move forward.

After a while, Li Xiuping found that the offensive of the formation began to weaken until it disappeared completely.

In this way, the first obstacle can be considered to have been successfully overcome.

Li Xiuping sat directly on the ground, gasping for breath.

He had never thought that forcibly suppressing his own strength would be so difficult, not only because of the attack of the formation, but also because of the kind of concentration that could be suppressed and did not dare to exceed the slightest concentration, and the loss was huge.

But since he can pass through the formation like this, it hasn't been too much of a problem for those monsters to pass through.

Li Xiuping just waited in place, and soon some monsters also walked out of the formation, but they were all a little embarrassed.

One by one, the monsters kept coming out of the formation, and soon the ground became crowded.

After making sure that there were no monsters coming out of the formation again, Li Xiuping spoke: "Count the number and see how many have not come?" ”

All the monsters nodded and began to count the numbers, and then one of the monsters said to Li Xiuping: "There are still twenty-four." ”

Li Xiuping couldn't help frowning and said, "You guys wait here, I'll go back and take a look." ”

All the monsters nodded at the same time, watching Li Xiuping re-enter the formation.

This time, Li Xiuping didn't have to deliberately suppress his strength, so he didn't have to make much effort, and went directly through the formation.

On the other side of the formation, twenty-four youkai were still there, but they were all seriously injured.

These monsters looked bitter, and when they saw Li Xiuping going and returning, they couldn't help but show joy on their faces, and asked, "It's all over?" ”

Li Xiuping nodded and asked, "Are you all right?" ”

A monster shook his head and said, "It's okay, but if you have to pass through this formation, I'm afraid it won't work." ”

Li Xiuping glanced back at the formation, then looked at these monsters again, and said, "I'll take you over." ”

The rest of these monsters were stunned.

Li Xiuping said: "You can bring a fact first, according to the offensive of the formation, there should be no problem." ”

Hearing this, those youkai couldn't help but hesitate a little.

The formation determines the strength of the attack according to the realm, that is to say, after Li Xiuping brings them, the attack of the formation becomes the sum of Li Xiuping and their realm, and they are now injured, which means that all attacks can only be dealt with by Li Xiuping alone.

Although Li Xiuping is very strong, after all, he only has the strength of the fifth layer of the foundation, so he can really carry them through the formation?

If something happens, in their current condition, they will definitely die.

Li Xiuping could naturally see the worries of these monsters, and he didn't have any ideas.

He himself is afraid of death, and so will these monsters.

Ants are still stealing life, let alone living beings who have embarked on the path of cultivation.

Li Xiuping continued: "If you are worried, you can wait here, but I am sure that I will bring you over, and it is up to you to decide whether you want to believe me or not." ”

One of the youkai nodded, "Okay, I'll come first." ”

Li Xiuping nodded, looked at the monster and said, "Follow me closely." ”

The monster nodded and walked over to Li Xiuping's side.

Li Xiuping didn't say anything more, and turned around and walked directly into the formation.

As Li Xiuping walked in, the monster obviously hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and kept up with Li Xiuping's pace.

After Li Xiuping entered the formation, the formation launched an attack, but Li Xiuping could easily block it, and as the monster also entered the formation, the offensive strength of the formation instantly more than doubled.

Li Xiuping directly transformed the fifth-layer spirit crystal into a spiritual sea, released the sword intent, wrapped himself and the monster, and kept waving the firewood knife in his hand, not dodging or dodging the offensive of the formation, but forcibly breaking it.

In this way, one person and one demon quickly disappeared into the formation.

The rest of the monsters had been staring at the situation in the formation, and when they saw the strength displayed by Li Xiuping, they were all shocked.

As demon clans, their desire for strength is different from that of human monks, and what they see is often more intuitive things, especially Li Xiuping's strong way, which makes them yearn for and worship.

There are no bells and whistles, but just go all the way forward, all obstacles, and break through directly.

They finally believed that Li Xiuping was indeed not lying, and was indeed able to carry them through the formation.

The previous disappointment was suddenly swept away, and every monster became full of confidence, after all, they had just experienced disappointment, and now Li Xiuping brought them hope again.

And Li Xiuping's heart at the moment is actually not easy at all.

Although he successfully brought a monster out of the formation, there were more than twenty in the back, even if he brought two at a time, he would have to go back and forth more than ten times, and he would be tired enough to choke at that time. The main point is that it is already so difficult that it is only the first obstacle, so how to deal with the remaining obstacles?

Some people died, but not completely......
