Chapter 1170: The Only Hope of the Terrans
The Great Array of Heavens and Ten Thousand Souls Locking Gods?
When Venerable Chong Xiao heard this, he was stunned: "Sect Master, why did you suddenly ask about this? Where did you hear the name of this formation?"
"So, is there really such a formation?" Jiang Chen frowned slightly. In this formation, when Jiang Chen was in the endless cave trial of the Eastern Kingdom, he had already heard Python Qi talk about this formation. Later, I went to the place where the barbarian demons were sealed, and I went to the endless cave again, and I checked with Python again.
At that time, Python Qi gave him some explanations, but Jiang Chen wanted to confirm from Chongxiao Venerable whether there was any water in what Python Qi said at the beginning.
"This array ......" Chong Xiao Venerable sighed lightly, and his tone suddenly became extremely complicated, "Sect Master, this formation, if you want to talk about it, it is really a long story. ”
No matter how long it is, Jiang Chen also wants to know about it.
"Venerable, this array has some relationship with me, can you tell me?"
"Since the sect master asked, his subordinates naturally knew everything and said everything. Venerable Chongxiao didn't intend to hide it from Jiang Chen, and sighed, "In this formation, in fact, our Danxiao Ancient Sect has also participated. At that time, there were eight sects involved in the arrangement of this array, and they were all relatively top formation sects at that time. My Danxiao Ancient School is also one of the best. In this Heavenly Ten Thousand Spirits Locking God Array, we are responsible for at least two or three percent. ”
The Danxiao Ancient Sect participated in this formation, and Jiang Chen was not surprised.
Since it was a formation arranged by an ancient sect, it was only natural that the Danxiao Ancient Sect, as a powerful sect in ancient times, participated in the arrangement of this formation.
"This array, not only our formation sects participated in the arrangement, but also the major sects in ancient times provided resources, provided the spirit stones needed for various formations, the tools needed, and the resources needed. At that time, they were almost united, and even planned to pin all their efforts on this formation. ”
"Oh?"
Jiang Chen's brows moved, he couldn't imagine that this formation still had such a history?
"This is by no means an exaggeration, at that time, the power of the human race was also strong in the Shenyuan Continent, and all kinds of resources were also very abundant, otherwise, the demon race would not have chosen our human race's territory as the main battlefield of the demon invasion. It is precisely because the territory of our Terran race is the main battlefield that our Terran paid a lot in the battle of sealing the demons in ancient times. Including this formation...... Just the formation masters, there are at least dozens of people who ran out of oil and died when refining this formation......"
"Such an exaggeration?" Jiang Chen was completely stunned. He never imagined that a formation would pay such a big price?
"It's not an exaggeration at all. Venerable Chongxiao's tone was very solemn, "This Heavenly Ten Thousand Spirits Locking God Great Array is the most powerful and highest-level Existence in the human race inheritance of our Shenyuan Continent. This formation is not capable of being completed by any sect on its own. No sect can independently support the resources required for this formation. If it takes ten or eight years to go, there is naturally no need to fight for your life. However, the time given to us at that time was only three months. Within three months, this formation must be completed. ”
The war against demons is pressed for time, and it is indeed impossible to wait for ten or eight years. Time is of the essence. Every day is precious, and wasting it can make all the difference in the tide of battle.
Jiang Chen finally understood why so many formation masters had survived to death for a while.
The ten-year formation will take three months to complete. This urgency is indeed appalling. This is indeed a burning life in the array.
For a while, Jiang Chen was also grunted.
"We, the Danxiao Ancient Sect, have a total of nine elders who sacrificed their lives when arranging this formation. One of them was my younger brother, born to one of my mothers. Venerable Chong Xiao spoke in a low tone.
"It's not just our Danxiao Ancient Sect, the Dizang Sect, which was known as the first sect of the formation at that time, also killed more than a dozen people. There are many other sects......"
When Venerable Chong Xiao said this, his tone was also unusually low: "It's a pity...... It's a pity...... In the end, we still underestimate the cunning of the demons. ”
"The formation we worked so hard to arrange, waiting for the formation of a decisive battle with the demons, but it was discovered by the demons. The demon army did not engage in the main battle as we expected. Instead, a group of puppets were sent to fight. These puppets are slaves enslaved by the demons from other planes. They themselves were coerced by the demons, and they had no desire to fight at all. They were purely sent to death by the demons, a group of substitute ghosts sent to inspire our formation!"
Venerable Chongxiao gritted his teeth, and when it came to the demon clan, he almost wanted to eat the flesh and blood of the demon clan raw.
This statement is almost the same as what Python said.
"It seems that Python Qi is not lying on this issue!" Jiang Chen also sighed in his heart.
"Sect Master, this formation has always been a scar on the hearts of our ancient human race. This formation, which cost us countless efforts and countless costs, did not even trap a single demon race. We can't live up to those fellow believers who sacrificed for the formation...... If we had succeeded in trapping the main force of the demon race in that battle, there would not have been so many tragic battles against the demons later, and the sacrifice of our human race would not have been so great. It was precisely because this formation did not complete its due mission that it led to the later anti-demon war, where the strong people of the human race almost died seven or eight times out of ten, and the major forces almost exhausted all their manpower and belongings. ”
The Great Array of Heavens and Ten Thousand Spirits Locking Gods was originally prepared for the demon race. But he was replaced by the demon faction and the dead ghost.
If the Great Array of Heavens and Ten Thousand Spirits Locking God could trap the main force of the demon race, maybe there would not be so many tragic battles in the future, and the luck of the human race would not have plummeted and fallen to the point where it is now.
I have to say that creation makes people.
"Venerable, since this Heavenly Ten Thousand Spirits Locking God Array has sealed the wrong person, can it be reactivated? Can you release those ghosts for the dead and use them for my own use?" Jiang Chen asked tentatively.
This question was also mentioned at the time. However, at that time, the war against demons was in full swing, and there was simply not so many manpower and resources to restart the Great Array of Heavens and Ten Thousand Spirits Locking Gods. Again, everyone was not sure at that time, if they released those puppets, they would happily cooperate with our human race to fight against the demons. After all, they are controlled by demons. ”
These concerns that Venerable Chong Xiao said were not unreasonable.
Jiang Chen nodded, but said: "At that time, the conditions were not ripe, I don't know the formation, is there any hope for restarting now?"
Jiang Chen is in the formation, although he is also a pedant, but he has never heard of this formation in his previous life, and he has no specific concept of this formation.
Therefore, he still wanted to get more information from Chongxiao Venerable.
"From ancient times to the present, more than 100,000 or 200,000 years have passed, and the subordinates can't judge what the situation of this Heavenly Ten Thousand Spirit Locking God Great Array is. However, with the meager resources of the human territory, it is almost impossible to restart this formation. In terms of material resources, it may be barely enough to meet the conditions. But in terms of manpower, if you think about it, in ancient times, so many heavenly powerhouses operated this array together, and dozens of them died. Right now...... The human realm may not even have a heavenly powerhouse, so wouldn't it be a fool's dream to restart this formation?"
Venerable Chongxiao's inference was very reasonable, but in Jiang Chen's opinion, although these problems were thorny, they were not hopeless to solve.
"Venerable, no matter how difficult it is, this is always the way. If we can restart this formation, at least we can block the demon army from the barbarian side, so that they can't easily enter our human territory. ”
Jiang Chen has studied the topography of human territory.
At that time, the arrangement of this Great Array of Heavens and Ten Thousand Spirits Locking Gods was based on this consideration. It is completely arranged in a critical place between the demon control area and the human territory.
This formation, just like a moat, if you can't cross it, you have to make a detour. In the martial arts world, the territory is vast, and once you want to make a detour, it will be very far.
If the demon invasion of the human territory is stopped by this formation, it will have to detour at least ten times more. This is obviously much more difficult for the demons.
The more you go around, the easier it is to disperse your forces, and the more beneficial it will be to the Terrans.
In ancient times, the Terran leaders chose to arrange the formation in that place, which was definitely very thoughtful.
If Jiang Chen could reactivate the Heavenly Ten Thousand Spirits Locking God Array, it would definitely be a perfect barrier to the Demon Clan. But the problem is that the level of the Heavens and Ten Thousand Spirits Locking God Great Array is so high, it is so difficult to restart this formation, even if it is Jiang Chen, it must be as difficult as ascending to the sky.
The resources consumed are absolutely enormous.
The manpower required is definitely huge.
However, they also have the advantage of having plenty of time. After all, the Demon Tribulation has not broken out at all now, and it is still possible to barely suppress it for decades.
In ancient times, it normally took ten or eight years to arrange the Great Array of Heavens and Ten Thousand Spirits Locking Gods, but now it takes five times as long, right?
Besides, in antiquity, a new array was arranged, and now it's just a matter of restarting it.
Restart this formation, at least the foundation of the previous formation is there. Compared to the difficulty of arranging a new formation, it will definitely be much smaller.
Therefore, although it is difficult to restart the Great Array of Heavens and Ten Thousand Souls Locking Gods, there is still a certain degree of feasibility.
Seeing Jiang Chen's tone so resolute, Venerable Chongxiao couldn't help but ask, "Sect Master, do you really want the Heavens and Ten Thousand Spirits Locking God Array to restart?"
"Venerable, I just ask you, with the current background of the human realm, if the demon tribulation breaks out, how much hope does the human realm have?"
"There is no hope!" Venerable Chong Xiao was not polite at all.
"Then what if this formation is restarted?" Jiang Chen asked again.
"If the formation is restarted...... "Chongxiao Venerable muttered, "If this formation can be restarted, the demons will definitely be blocked on the other side of the formation." They want to invade human territory, and the difficulty is at least several times higher. When the time comes, they may have their ideas on the territory of other races in the Shenyuan Continent. ”
Jiang Chen nodded: "So, this formation is also the only hope for the human realm." ”
Venerable Chongxiao sighed: "Sect Master, my subordinates must remind you that this difficulty is definitely much greater than you imagined. You have to have resources, you have to have people. The most important thing is that this formation, even if we are the Danxiao Ancient Sect, have only participated in two or three percent. In other parts, there is no record in the inheritance of our Danxiao Ancient School. If you don't understand those parts of the formation, how can you restart the formation?"
