Chapter 23: Perfecting the Formation
Lost in the Circle... No, it can only be regarded as a small maze array.
The small maze array could be completed at one time, which made Xu Yuxiu's eyes brighten, and a happy color appeared on her little face.
This made her feel that the efforts of the past few days had not been in vain.
It's just that she still doesn't know if her little maze array can have the desired effect.
Xu Yuxiu glanced at the surroundings, picked up a stone from the ground, aimed at a tree not far away and threw it over.
The stone passed through the tree, the light and shadow flickered for a moment, and soon returned to normal.
Seeing this, she frowned slightly.
"The effect is a little poor..."
The effect of the Little Trace Array was a little different from what she expected.
Just a small pebble can cause the environment within the formation to fluctuate slightly.
With such an effect, it is certainly impossible to trap the monk.
I'm afraid that any monk who refines qi at one or two levels, as long as he releases his own coercion, he can easily see through her little maze array.
"We have to keep improving!"
Xu Yuxiu realized his shortcomings, took out the compass from the storage bag, and began to carefully check the formation.
Spiritual power is injected into the compass, and the lines on it are revealed.
Xu Yuxiu lifted his spiritual eyes and went around the nodes of the small maze array to check.
At the same time, she also took out the layout diagram she drew for comparison.
After some inspection, she drew three more nodes on the layout diagram.
She was a little silent.
Even if these three nodes are added, the effect of the small maze array will not be improved much.
Xu Yuxiu thought silently for a while and made a decision.
It's better to have discoveries than nothing.
Fill in the three newly discovered nodes first and see how much effect can be improved.
So, she began to get busy again, carving the formation nodes.
If you want to carve a new node for a formation that has already been formed, it will undoubtedly be much more difficult.
Xu Yuxiu just started to portray, and he encountered obstacles.
As soon as she carved a formation pattern, she took the formation pattern away during the flow of the formation.
It's like a duck that has just been put out of the pot, and before it can be cooked, it is served away.
Fortunately, she could sense that the pattern carved just now had not dissipated because of this.
Seeing this, Xu Yuxiu immediately chased after him.
Fortunately, her little maze array is running, and the speed of each change is not so fast.
Xu Yuxiu quickly caught up with the formation pattern that was taken away, and after a slight pause, she gathered her spiritual power again and began to carve the formation pattern again.
Soon, she completed the depiction of the formation pattern of this node.
The node lit up, and after a while, it melted into the small maze array.
At this moment, the formation changed again.
Xu Yuxiu could clearly feel that the speed of the transformation of the small maze array had become a little faster.
Without staying long, she quickly rushed to the next place and began to portray.
This time, she also hurried to complete the portrayal of the second new node.
When she wanted to depict a third new node, she ran into a slight obstacle.
Because with the integration of the two new nodes, the transformation speed of the small maze array has accelerated a lot.
So much so that when she depicted the third new node, she chased and ran twice before she completed the depiction of the node on the third time.
When the third new node was integrated into the small maze array, there was a noticeable change in the range of the formation.
A trace of mist began to appear in the forest.
Although it is not obvious, Xu Yuxiu, who is the arranger, can be keenly aware of it.
She picked up another stone and tried the effect of the small maze array.
This time, the stone did not affect the environment of the baffa.
"Fifteen nodes should be able to trap monks below the third level of qi refining."
Xu Yuxiu tried to use magic a few times in succession to give such a judgment.
But the complete Lost Trace Array is not a problem to trap a Qi Refining Stage Cultivator, unless it encounters a Foundation Refining Stage Cultivator.
Or a Qi refining period cultivator who has a powerful spiritual weapon to forcibly break the formation.
Compared to that, the Little Trace Array is much worse now.
"Huh!"
Xu Yuxiu let out a soft sigh and looked at the forest.
She felt as if something was trapped in the place where her eyes looked.
Driven by curiosity, she held the compass in her hand and walked in that direction.
In a few moments, she saw a rabbit in the middle of the woods, staggering in circles, already disoriented.
Xu Yuxiu had a hint of teasing when she saw this little rabbit with a confused face and a staggering rabbit.
Her fingertips changed and took the initiative to control the small maze array.
Seeing the environment around him change, the little rabbit jumped onto a rock.
Soon, just as the little rabbit was even more confused and jumped on a rock, the rock beneath its feet disappeared and turned into a lake.
This startled the little rabbit, and the two short legs under him kicked desperately, but they couldn't stop it from falling.
Just as it was about to fall into the lake, the lake suddenly disappeared and changed back into the environment it had been in.
Xu Yuxiu's play made the little rabbit a little dizzy.
Seeing this, she didn't play with this ordinary little rabbit anymore, and the magic trick in her hand changed, opening a way out for the little rabbit and letting him leave the magic circle.
After this trick on the little rabbit, Xu Yuxiu has a clear understanding of the effect of this little maze array.
The essence of the Lost Array is nothing more than distorting the cognition of living beings, so that living beings have wrong cognitions, just like the ghosts that mortals think are hitting the wall.
With this understanding, Xu Yuxiu had a flash of inspiration in her mind, and hurriedly took out the layout diagram and began to mark it again.
This time, she used the compass to deduce while observing the markers on the layout diagram.
After spending more than two hours of effort, she finally depicted the last few formation nodes on the formation diagram.
"It worked!"
She jumped up with joy, her little face blooming with excitement that could not be concealed.
Now, all that is left is to carve out the remaining formation nodes.
Soon, after the excitement had passed, she felt a wave of mental tiredness hit her.
There is no way, I can only recover my mental state first, and then complete the carving of the remaining formation nodes.
Xu Yuxiu returned to the cave and began to meditate on the aura in the cave to recover his state.
The next day, it was just dawn.
Xu Yuxiu couldn't wait to rush out of the cave and start her formation node carving.
Just like yesterday, she ran around again, carving out one node after another and integrating them into the small maze array.
However, as the nodes continued to fuse and increase, even if she didn't take the initiative to control it, the speed of the formation transformation was constantly accelerating.
So much so that when she carved the last node, she almost ran down tired and fell down before she could complete the carving of the last node.
Since then, the twenty-two formation nodes in the small maze array have lit up, colluding with each other to form a real maze array.
At the moment when the Lost Trace Array was completed, everything within the scope of the formation changed dramatically.
Mountains and rocks, plants and trees, and lakes are linked together.
A thick fog was hidden within the formation.
You may not be able to see anything outside, but once you step into the Lost Trace Array, the Qi Refining Stage cultivator will be lost in an instant.
Xu Yuxiu sat on the ground with her buttocks, looking at her masterpiece, her face was full of smiles, and the exhaustion caused by the depiction of the formation pattern was swept away.
