Inside the stone gate is the outer area of the ancient monk's cave.

Gui Hongying was the first to enter, Zhu Youdao hurriedly followed, followed by Chen Hanfang and Zhou Duoxing.

The outer area has been carved out with pieces of spiritual fields, but it seems that no one has taken care of them for many years, and the vines and grasses are overgrown inside, and the spiritual herbs are no longer common.

Even so, it had just been sacked by a locust transit.

Zhu Youdao knew that this must be the last time the people of Gui Hongying's three families explored it.

He shook his head secretly in his heart, the people of these three families only thought about immediate interests, but did not have a long-term vision.

Such a hidden place should be taken care of, weeds and vines should be removed, and the roots and seedlings of spiritual grass should be left, and it can also leave an opportunity for children and grandchildren in the future.

But looking at the way they were being picked in front of them, they never thought about the future.

Seeing that Zhu Youdao was still watching, Zhou Duoxing said impatiently: "Don't look at it, this is just the periphery of the cave, and the good things are all in the cave!"

Zhu Youdao ignored him, just watched as he walked, and at the same time secretly estimated the approximate age of the existence of this cave mansion in his heart.

Based on the extent of the desolation of the Lingtian and the growth of vines and grasses, he roughly concluded that this cave should have been abandoned five hundred to eight hundred years ago.

It's a pity that the elixir in the spiritual field was picked up, otherwise according to the age of the spiritual herb, it is the most accurate way to determine the time.

Seeing that Zhu Youdao ignored him, Zhou Duoxing's face was a little ugly, and he was about to have a seizure, but he was pulled by Chen Hanfang and shook his head at him slightly.

Just in the valley on the outskirts of the cave, a few people walked for a day.

The next day, Zhu Youdao followed the three of them to a cliff.

Seeing that they were stagnant, Zhu Youdao knew that it was time for him to show his hand.

He stepped forward and touched the stone wall with the palm of his hand, but he felt empty, and the stone wall in front of him turned out to be transformed by the phantom array.

Zhu Youdao turned his back to the three of them and walked slowly along the stone wall. In the direction that the three of them couldn't see, his eyes were as blue as a millimeter, which was using the Spirit Eye Secret Technique to check the reality of the illusion array.

Walking back and forth along the stone wall, Zhu Youdao returned to the three of them: "If my expectations are correct, the last time you came, you should have easily walked through the first phantom array. And with the method of the Five Elements of Shengke, he forcibly passed through the second maze and was blocked by the third circle, right?"

Gui Hongying and the three of them showed admiration, what Zhu Youdao said was not bad at all, it was exactly the situation they encountered last time.

Chen Hanfang praised again and again: "Zhu Daoyou's formation cultivation is really clever, my brother is convinced! As you said, we are blocked before the third magic array!"

Zhu Youdao nodded: "Then congratulations on your good luck, if you break through the third magic circle, I'm afraid there will be no today!"

Seeing that the three of them showed incomprehension, Zhu Youdao explained: "This big array of protecting the mansion is the most commonly used 'five-round array' by ancient monks, divided into five levels, illusion, confusion, royal, trapping, and killing, the illusion array and the maze are easy to pass, the imperial array needs to be cracked strongly, and the trapped array is a test of the formation knowledge of the comer, and the killing array is the most dangerous, and if you don't understand the way to crack it, there is death and no life!"

"If you break through the Imperial Array, you will either be trapped in it and die, or you will be crushed by the Killing Array, how can you go out and find helpers?"

"This is still a dead array controlled by no one, if someone controls this array, the effects of the five magic arrays will change at will, and the difficulty of breaking the formation will increase countless times!"

Hearing this, the three of them couldn't help but be afraid for a while.

They have already heard Zhu Youdao's euphemisms, they can get away with it, in fact, it is not luck, but the cultivation of the three of them is not enough, if their cultivation is stronger, and then break through the layer of magic circle, then it is really a place to die and have no place to be buried.

Chen Hanfang asked, "Zhu Daoyou, since you have seen through this magic circle, can you take us to break in?"

Zhu Youdao shook his head and said: "It's okay to talk about the trapped formation and the killing formation, I asked myself to spend some time to understand the changes, but the third level of the imperial array needs real strength to break through, and if it is not close to the attack power of the Jindan stage monk, we can't enter it anyway!"

The faces of the three of them were ugly for a while, and Gui Hongying said a little unwillingly: "It seems that we can only give up this cave for the time being, but without the opportunity inside the cave mansion, we don't know if there is a chance to cultivate to the realm of Jindan in this life!"

Chen Hanfang hesitated for a while before he said, "Some time ago, I happened to get a third-order spirit rune, I don't know if I can break the formation?"

Zhu Youdao shook his head: "One is not enough, at least three!"

Chen Hanfang looked at Zhou Duoxing and Gui Hongying, and the two of them also took out a spirit rune, both of which were third-order things.

Zhu Youdao sneered in his heart, is this your hole card?

He nodded quietly, "That's enough!"

The three of them hurriedly urged him: "Zhu Daoyou, then hurry up and break the formation!"

Zhu Youdao shook his head: "Don't worry, after the magic circle, it is where the real essence of the cave is located, how to distribute the harvest in the cave, everyone hasn't said it yet!"

Zhou Duoxing hurriedly said: "Didn't Hongying tell you, after the teleportation array was dismantled, it was all yours!"

Zhu Youdao sneered: "The teleportation array is my reward for breaking the formation, is it possible that after the formation is opened, you will have to cross the river and tear down the bridge? You have to be careful inside, who knows if there's a magic circle inside!"

Zhou Duoxing and Chen Hanfang were a little hesitant, they didn't know much about the way of the formation, in case there was a magic circle inside the cave, they would have no choice, not to mention, they didn't worry about Zhu Youdao leaving alone, in case this person did something on the magic circle going out, it would be a big trouble to seal them inside!

The best thing to do is to get rid of this person after the formation is broken. It's just that this person was found by Gui Hongying, and she doesn't have the same heart as us, I'm afraid that she won't let us solve this array mage!

After thinking about it, it is better to see Zhu Youdao by his side to rest assured.

So Chen Hanfang said: "Since Zhu Daoyou has been brought in, the harvest in it will naturally be your share!"

Only then did Zhu Youdao nod: "Three Taoist friends follow me in, see how I walk, remember not to act without permission, otherwise I will touch the magic circle, I am afraid I will not be able to rescue!"

The three of them nodded hurriedly.

Zhu Youdao took the lead in walking, and the people behind him followed suit. After just walking for a while, he stepped out in one step, and the first phantom array appeared.

Without the phantom array, I looked up and saw a lake, and on the opposite side of the lake was a palace, entrenched at the foot of the mountain in the distance.

The scale of the palace is not large, it is divided into the main hall and the left and right side halls, and there seems to be a cave on the mountainside behind the palace.

But the most eye-catching thing is a pavilion in front of the side hall, in which a teleportation circle is built, which is unabashedly exposed to the view.

Zhu Youdao nodded secretly, Gui Hongying and they really didn't deceive themselves.

At this time, the three of them also stepped in with his pace.

Zhu Youdao said: "The second level of the magic circle, you have also walked through, there is no need to say anything about the danger, follow me!"

He stepped out again and disappeared in front of him, and everyone hurriedly followed.

A moment later, the four of them had already arrived in front of the third level.

Zhu Youdao said: "I'll go into the formation first, and when I trigger the magic circle node, I will be guided by the fire rune, and when you see the fire, you will hit it with the third-order spirit rune, pay attention, the power must be concentrated, otherwise you won't be able to break the magic circle!"

Seeing that the three of them nodded to show that they understood, Zhu Youdao entered the magic circle without hesitation.

After a while, the three people outside the formation saw a firelight rushing out of the array, and they activated the third-order spirit rune at the same time, hitting towards the firelight, only to hear a thunderbolt, the magic circle stopped, and Zhu Youdao appeared from the magic circle.

Zhu Youdao said: "The fourth level is not difficult, but it takes a lot of effort, you wait here, I will go in to explore the changes in the magic circle!"

Although the magic circle can block the internal and external sights, it can't block their sight from looking inside the cave, so the three of them are not afraid that Zhu Youdao will go in to make ghosts without permission.

They nodded again and again, and said, "Zhu Daoyou, be careful!"

Zhu Youdao nodded, turned around and entered the magic circle.

This time, he entered the formation, and it took him three days until the people outside were waiting anxiously before he came out of the formation.

Zhu Youdao looked very tired, and he said in a low voice: "My mana consumption is serious, so I will rest for a day first!"

Then sit down and meditate on yourself.

A day later, Zhu Youdao got up and said, "Everyone follow me into the battle!"

This time, Zhu Youdao had already discovered the changes in the magic circle, and in just over three hours, he led everyone through the past.

In front of the fifth level, Zhu Youdao said: "Everyone, this level is a killing array, what means should not be kept, especially the protection method of life-saving, all that can be used have been used!

Gui Hongying said: "I'll resist the second time!"

Chen Hanfang said: "The third time I'll come!"

Zhou Duoxing said: "I'll come for the fourth time!"

Zhu Youdao nodded: "It's my turn again for the fifth time, everyone get ready in turn!"

Seeing that everyone was ready, Zhu Youdao blessed his body with a spirit rune, and took out a round shield magic weapon and sacrificed it on the top of his head. Then he stepped into the circle.

When the other three entered the magic circle, they happened to see a thunderbolt in the big array slashing towards Zhu Youdao, which he blocked with a round shield.

After a loud bang, the thunder light was blocked, and Zhu Youdao's round shield was also destroyed.

"Follow me, get ready next!" Zhu Youdao shouted.

Everyone hurriedly followed Zhu Youdao and ran, only running more than a dozen zhang away, and another thunderbolt slashed down.

Gui Hongying sacrificed an iron plaque and blocked the thunder light.

The iron card was fine, but Gui Hongying was shocked to her internal organs, leaving blood stains on the corners of her mouth.

She didn't dare to delay, endured the pain, and rushed forward with everyone.

The subsequent attacks were blocked by everyone in turn, and when Zhu Youdao took the fourth attack, his eyes suddenly lit up, and they had already rushed out of the last level of the magic circle.
