Chapter 254: The Assistant
It was precisely because the formation of the sixty-four soul seeking arrays was too complicated that Ling Zhan could bring two or three assistants to help him arrange the formation in the ring that seized the position of chief array mage.
Ling Zhan knew very well that if he was the only one, it would be absolutely unrealistic to want to arrange a large formation.
Moreover, as far as Ling Zhan knew, now in the Ten Thousand Beasts Heavenly Sect, almost all the formation mages had already formed a group, and as a disciple of the sect, if he wanted to challenge the position of the chief formation mage, he was infringing on their interests.
Therefore, Ling Zhan knew that it was very difficult for him to find a few assistants who knew how to arrange the formation, especially among the sects.
At this moment, a person suddenly flashed through Ling Zhan's mind, if he promised to be his assistant, then it should be no problem!
Wanting this, a flash of excitement flashed in Ling Zhan's eyes......
A few days later, the news that Ling Zhan was going to participate in the battle for the chief formation mage had been spread among the top leaders of the sect, and almost the vast majority of the top leaders of the sect, although they did not believe that Ling Zhan could finally win the title of chief array mage, they still admired Ling Zhan's courage very much.
Besides, Ling Zhan's status in the sect was not inferior to them, so many Martial Saint-level masters had already decided to cheer for Ling Zhan when the time came.
Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, the time had come to compete for the position of chief array mage.
Early this morning, Mu Kong had already come to Ling Zhan's Liuyun Peak, waiting for Ling Zhan.
Seeing Ling Zhan's appearance, Mu Kong said a little depressedly: "Senior brother, you have to think about it carefully, senior brother, my formation level is average, if you lose this formation battle, don't blame senior brother and me." β
That's right, the assistant that Ling Zhan chose to assist him in completing the formation was his senior brother Mu Kong. In fact, Ling Zhan also had no way, if there was any other way, Ling Zhan didn't want to use Mu Kong, a half-hung formation mage, he also wanted a real formation mage to be his assistant, but there was no way, until this time, Ling Zhan didn't know the severity of the matter, in the entire sect, most of the formation mages were controlled by the opponent he was going to challenge today, and Ling Zhan wanted to make them his assistants, it was simply impossible.
And because the power of those formation mages is too great, even if Ling Zhan wants to invite a few neutral formation mages, because once those neutral array mages agree to Ling Zhan, then they will be isolated by other formation mages!
In the end, Ling Zhan could only reluctantly choose Mu Kong as his assistant. In any case, Mukong still has a certain understanding of the formation, and he should be able to help him a little.
In fact, at the beginning, Mu Kong considered letting Wu Xin and Zhang Liang become his assistants, but after some thought, he gave up this idea. Because the complexity of the sixty-four Soul Seeking Array is far greater than that of the Eight Soul Seeking Array, Wu Xin and Zhang Liang are already very lucky to be able to arrange the Eight Soul Seeking Array under their own advice, after all, they don't even know a little bit of formation knowledge. And it was almost impossible for them to arrange the sixty-four soul seeking arrays.
From Mu Kong's eyes, Ling Zhan could see that he was actually very excited in his heart. After all, Mu Kong is still very fond of formations, and now that he has the opportunity to participate in this challenge of the chief formation mage and see various formations up close, he certainly has reason to be excited.
Since becoming a formation mage, Ling Zhan has also gained a certain understanding of Mukong's formation knowledge, which is much stronger than ordinary people, but compared with the real formation mage, it is still a little bit worse.
However, for Ling Zhan, this kind of Cheng dΓΉ is enough to use.
Regarding Mu Kong's words, Ling Zhan just smiled slightly, and then said, "Senior brother, don't worry, as long as you do what I tell you, there will be absolutely no problem." β
From Ling Zhan's tone, Mu Kong could hear that his words were full of infinite confidence.
Mu Kong said softly: "Senior brother, are you so confident that you can win the final challenge? The other party is the chief formation mage of the sect, although there is no way to compare with the chief formation mage of other super sects, but among our Ten Thousand Beasts Heavenly Sect, that person's formation cultivation is one of the best. Senior brother, don't be careless!"
Ling Zhan nodded and said, "Senior brother, don't worry, even if I can't win, I will definitely be able to make them fall hard!" Speaking of this, the corners of Ling Zhan's mouth curled slightly, revealing a confident smile.
If it was before he had an epiphany, Ling Zhan didn't have much confidence in this competition! He was even thinking about whether he would use the Eight Door Soul Seeking Array to replace the Sixty-four Soul Seeking Array with the Eight Gate Soul Seeking Array when the time came, after all, the Eight Soul Seeking Array was more familiar to him, and at the same time, he could exert greater power!
However, after fully comprehending the sixty-four Soul Seeking Formations, Ling Zhan knew very well in his heart the power of this formation, if the process of arranging it was smooth, Ling Zhan would even be confident that he would have this formation to kill several Martial Saint-level masters!
It is precisely for this reason that Ling Zhan is so confident.
At this moment, Mu Kong said to Ling Zhan: "Senior brother, according to the regulations, each array mage can have two assistants. Now there are only two of us, and there is only one person left!"
Hearing Mu Kong say this, a wry smile suddenly appeared on Ling Zhan's face, and he said, "Senior brother, you also know that I have just entered the sect not long ago, and I don't know many people, among them, there is only one person who knows how to form a formation, who do you think I can find as my assistant?"
Hearing Ling Zhan say this, Mu Kong nodded subconsciously, indeed as Ling Zhan said, the time he has been in the sect is too short, and his contacts are not very wide, and among the sects, except for those formation mages, there are not many people who know formations, and it is indeed not easy for Ling Zhan to find someone who understands formations.
At this time, Ling Zhan said, "Senior brother, don't you have to have two assistants to be able to participate in the battle for the chief array mage, right?"
Mu Kong shook his head and said, "That's not true, but it's a common practice to have two assistants." β
Ling Zhan smiled: "If it really doesn't work, let Wu Xin be my second assistant!"
"Wu Xin?" When he heard this name, Mu Kong was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No, no, although Wu Xin is your housekeeper, he doesn't even know a little bit of formation knowledge, and maybe he will make trouble for you when the time comes, no!"
Ling Zhan shrugged his shoulders helplessly, and said, "Then I have no choice, if I can, senior brother can help me find an assistant!"
Hearing Ling Zhan's words, Mu Kong frowned, and said, "Let me find it, if I am allowed to fight, then Senior Brother will definitely have no problem, but let me find a Formation Mage? Senior Brother really doesn't know a few Formation Mages!"
Hearing Mu Kong say this, Ling Zhan shook his head helplessly, and said, "Since you can't find an assistant, then just the two of us! Anyway, there is no rule that there must be two assistants in the competition!"
Hearing Ling Zhan say this, Mu Kong nodded depressedly and said, "It seems that this is the only way to go." β
At this moment, Wu Xin suddenly came to Ling Zhan's room and said, "Childe, there is someone outside the peak who wants to ask to see Childe!"
Hearing Wu Xin's words, Ling Zhan was stunned for a moment and said, "Someone wants to see me?"
Wu Xin shook his head and said, "My subordinates don't know, the other party didn't say his name." β
At this time, Mu Kong said coldly: "No, today is the day when my junior brother participates in the chief array mage competition, and no one will see me!"
Wu Xin suddenly took out a sheepskin scroll and presented it in front of Ling Zhan, and said, "Childe, that person didn't say anything, just asked his subordinates to hand over this scroll to Childe, and he said that as long as Childe saw the things on this scroll, he would naturally want to see him." β
Hearing Wu Xin say this, Ling Zhan's face showed an expression of interest, and then he took the scroll and said with a smile: "I want to see what scroll it is?"
After saying that, Ling Zhan placed the scroll on the table, and then slowly spread it out.
When the pattern on the scroll was fully revealed, Ling Zhan's face immediately became solemn.
And after Wu Xin saw this pattern, he couldn't help but let out an exclamation.
Only Mu Kong was a little flustered, he didn't know what happened to Ling Zhan and Wu Xin, why after seeing the pattern on the scroll, it was as if someone had immobilized him, and he stood there stupidly and didn't move.
In Mu Kong's cognition, this sheepskin scroll should be depicted in a formation, looking at the appearance of this formation, it doesn't seem to be very complicated, but it contains a lot of incomprehensible mysteries.
At this time, Wu Xin said excitedly: "This, isn't this the formation we arranged outside Ruijin Peak?"
Mu Kong was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly said secretly in his heart: It turns out that this is the formation arranged by Senior Brother Ling Zhan outside Ruijin Peak? It looks really extraordinary, no wonder it can have such a strong power!
At this time, a fine light flashed in Ling Zhan's eyes, and he said to Wu Xin: "Wu Xin, the person who handed over this formation map to you is a person from Rui Jin Peak?"
Ruijin Peak?
Hearing Ling Zhan say this, Wu Xin seemed to have thought of something, and immediately said loudly: "That's right, I remember, what Gongzi said is right, that person is indeed a person from Ruijin Peak, and his subordinates have seen this person on Ruijin Peak at that time, but this person has never spoken, so the impression of his subordinates is not so deep!"
Ling Zhan nodded and said, "Sure enough, it's a person from Ruijin Peak, I really didn't expect that among Ruijin Peak, there would be such a powerful array mage!"
Others may not know what is going on, but Ling Zhan knows very well that after he withdrew the formation, he had already destroyed the formation. But I didn't expect that in Ruijin Peak, there were still masters, and the formation that he destroyed by himself actually restored the original formation, although there was still a certain gap with the Eight Gate Suo Soul Array in his hands, but it was already very remarkable to be able to do this kind of Cheng DΓΉ, even Ling Zhan himself, I'm afraid it was not so powerful!
However, what puzzled Ling Zhan was what was the purpose of the other party in handing over this sheepskin scroll to him?
