Chapter 21: One Day 10,000 Years Ago (Part II)
Looking at these low-level disciples who were coming and going, Ma Zhongxin was furious, and he really wanted to pull a disciple and beat him up to vent his anger. Suddenly thought of something and said, "Why can't you see immortal masters and elders in this sect?"
"Do you want to rob them?" Sha Jingjing teased, and then said, "They are plotting a big thing on the mountain, I can take you to see it." β
Sha Jingjing took the lead in walking towards the mountain, going up the stone steps, and from time to time she could see disciples going up and down the mountain. The stone steps are covered with green moss, and the flowers and foliage on both sides are lush and leafy, apparently often tended by someone. Birds jumped up and down in the branches, chirping crisply, and small beasts could be seen flashing in the meadow from time to time. It's a prosperous world, but it's also a world that chills the heart.
When I reached the top of the mountain, a very large field suddenly appeared. Thousands of people knelt in the venue and were busy, but they barely made a sound, startling Wang Yicheng who suddenly saw him.
These thousands of people were several meters away from each other, and each of them had a formation plate in front of them, and they were kneeling on the ground to carve out the formation. The lines on the array are very complicated, and the lowest level is also a second-level formation.
For the first time, Wang Yicheng saw the scene of thousands of people portraying the formation at the same time, and he really felt very shocked. Walking slowly past these people, they were only busy with their own business, ignoring the three of them. However, Wang Yicheng could feel the power on their bodies, all of them were immortal masters, and it turned out that all the foundation-building immortal masters in the entire mountain gate were carved formations here.
Sha Jingjing led the two of them through this square and went straight to a large hall on the top of the mountain. This makes the main hall extremely magnificent. Wang Yicheng stood at the door of the main hall, feeling like a little ant standing at the door of the house, very small. Walking slowly into the main hall, what you see is a huge gossip image on the opposite wall of the main hall, as high as dozens of zhang, like a mountain wall pressing head-on, and a group of people under the gossip map are preaching.
Walking slowly, you can see that there is a step only a few feet high under the Bagua diagram. On the steps, an old man sat cross-legged on a futon and was preaching. The old man was dressed in a gray cloth robe, his face was simple, his beard, eyebrows and hair were all white, and the two eyebrows were particularly long, almost hanging down to his cheeks.
After only glancing at the old man, Wang Yicheng suddenly felt that his eyes were a little stinging, and the old man's body faintly emitted golden light, making it impossible to look directly. Then I felt dizzy, like a mountain pressing down on me, and the sky was spinning.
"Don't look at that old man, he is the head of the Heavenly Sect 10,000 years ago - the real person of the Heavenly Gate. Sha Jingjing's voice came slowly.
Wang Yicheng hurriedly looked away, and immediately felt that the feeling of dizziness was better. I was very frightened in my heart, this old man couldn't do anything to cultivate, no matter how he looked at it.
"The Tianmen Zhenren is the only fourth-level formation mage of the Tianmen Sect, the cultivation of the Yuan Infant Stage. When the formation shaped him, not only did it reproduce his strength, but even the coercion on his body was simulated. β
"What about the ancestor of the Yuan Infant Stage!" Wang Yicheng admired it very much in his heart, and really wanted to take another look, but thinking about the feeling just now, he still gave up.
"Do you see the ruler he is holding in his hand? It is called the Nine Heavens Yuan Yang Ruler, which is a superb magic weapon, and it was once famous on the mainland. Sha Jingjing said.
Ma Zhongxin forcibly endured the stinging pain in his eyes and glanced at the treasure again. There was a greedy look in his eyes. But he also knew that he was two pounds, snatching things from a Yuan Infant Ancestor, and people only used one finger to kill him like a little ant.
At this time, the Tianmen Daoist waved his sleeves, and an illusory figure appeared in the sky above the main hall. This is a model of a formation.
After just one glance, Wang Yicheng was shocked, this formation is too against the sky, and the area alone covers thousands of miles, including mountains, rivers, earth, peaks, rivers, forests, and all living beings, all of which are part of this formation.
"This is the anti-heaven formation that they have poured into the strength of the whole faction to go to the forests of the Southern Regions. Sha Jingjing explained slowly.
Wang Yicheng nodded again and again, with such a vast formation, it is no wonder that it has to be arranged in the forests of the Southern Regions, and it cannot be used in places inhabited by humans.
Listening carefully to the Tianmen Daoist about this formation, the more Wang Yicheng listened, the more shocked he felt, this formation was incredibly complicated, and millions of pieces were drawn just on the array plate, all over the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains. And the number of people needed to launch the formation is also tens of thousands. No wonder the Tianmen faction would go out back then, in this way, Wang Yicheng also felt that the number of people seemed to be insufficient.
Then listen to the Tianmen Daoist tell how this formation is arranged, how it is launched, how it is run, and what are the key points. Wang Yicheng felt like a drop of water, suddenly placed in the sea. Surrounded by the boundless unknown.
The formation of the Heavenly Gate Dao people is too mysterious, and it is already close to the essence of the Dao of this world. Wang Yicheng, a small first-level array mage, can only be a high mountain up. Although most of the explanations were not understood, some understanding of the essence of the formation was deeply imprinted in Wang Yicheng's heart. This will be of great benefit to him in learning the formation in the future, in fact, it is to point out the direction in which he will move forward in learning the formation, although he is weak now, but if he goes in this direction, he will become a great formation mage sooner or later.
Wang Yicheng suddenly thought that Sha Jingjing's formation was so powerful, and he should have absorbed the nutrients in this sermon. Glancing at Sha Jingjing, Sha Jingjing nodded slightly, as if encouraging him to continue listening.
Ma Zhongxin was also listening, but every time he heard a few words, he couldn't help but glance at the bodies of those elders and estimate how much the items they were carrying were worth.
After some preaching, the Tianmen Daoist said: "This time the formation is arranged, these hundreds of third-level array disks will be used by you, and the nine fourth-level array disks at the core of the formation will be personally portrayed by me. β
Wang Yicheng's eyelids jumped when he heard this, what kind of formation is this, nine fourth-level array disks, hundreds of third-level array disks, I feel scary when I think about it.
"The rise and fall of the sect is in one fell swoop. The Tianmen Daoist suddenly sighed, and said slowly: "I will name this formation the Tianmen Killing Array, if we succeed in getting that kind of thing, our Tianmen Sect will prosper from now on, and it will never be born." I can break through to the realm and enter the fifth-level array mage, and you will also be able to break through. If I lose, it's a lore, alas! I can't come back!"
Dozens of elders in the front row knelt on the ground together, prostrate themselves and wept, "Ancestor, even if we are all dead, we must ensure that you come back." β
Tianmen Daoist shook his head and said, "I'm old, it's not a pity for me to die." But I'm not going to let our entire sect go extinct, and then I'll be a sinner for the ages. I made a special array of eyes. β
As he spoke, the Tianmen Daoist took out a piece of jade pendant-like things, held it in his hand, stretched out his hand and pointed to a place in the virtual formation in the air, and said, I will place this thing there, and then told everyone the mantra and symbol that inspired this jade pendant.
Then he said: "This item is equivalent to the second key of the formation, after the formation is activated, if it fails, the formation will automatically close to prevent that thing from coming out and harming people." However, this key can temporarily control the time of the formation for an hour. This is the time when you will escape. I will stay in the eye of the array, hold the thing, and die with it. β
The elders lying below wept together, and the scene looked a little tragic.
Wang Yicheng couldn't help but sigh that in order to pursue the Tao, every cultivator goes against the sky, and he must be ready to donate his life at any time.
A gentle sigh came from the high platform, "I have pursued the Tao all my life, and now I am dying for the Tao, and I am worthy of my death." β
Wang Yicheng was sincerely moved by these predecessors who pursued the Tao, and they would rather die than give up their pursuit of ideals. This is very similar to myself, they are all persistent people. However, what happened tens of thousands of years ago, and why not a single disciple of the Heavenly Sect escaped, it is unknown.
Subsequently, hundreds of elders scattered in the main hall and began to carve out the formation. The three of them stood in the middle of the main hall. As long as the three of them don't mess with these people, these people don't exist as if the three of them don't exist.
Ma Zhongxin looked at the various items carved by these elders on the array plate, or knives, or swords, or shovels, and they were all greedy, these were all magic weapon-level treasures, as long as he got one. Since then, he has developed himself. Look at the comparison between your broken flag and other people's things, it is simply the difference between heaven and earth. Suddenly thinking that Wang Yicheng had a good magic weapon, he couldn't help but be jealous again, and glared at Wang Yicheng fiercely.
"Zhongxin, do you want the treasures on these elders?" said Sha Jingjing with a smile.
"You...... Do you have a way?" Ma Zhongxin was so excited that he even stammered.
Sha Jingjing smiled and nodded, bent down, stretched out his hand, and suddenly snatched a small carving knife from the hand of an elder.
Suddenly, Wang Yicheng and Ma Zhongxin were stunned, and the people in the entire hall seemed to feel something at the same time, and looked at the three of them together. The elder who had been robbed of things was stunned for a moment, and then looked at the three of them, his eyes slowly revealing a fierce light, and an extremely strong power emanated.
"What should I do?" Ma Zhongxin shouted, he really didn't expect Sha Jingjing to say that he would rob it, provoking an elder, isn't this looking for death?
Sha Jingjing's smile suddenly slapped heavily on the ground, and a formation lit up brightly.
Ma Zhongxin was overjoyed and shouted, "Jingjing, it turns out that you have already prepared...... but before he finished his words, the joy on his face froze. Because he saw Sha Jingjing suddenly stuff the carved knife he snatched into Wang Yicheng's hand, and then a translucent light shield flew out from the ground, not flying towards him, but enveloping Wang Yicheng in it.
At this time, the elder who had been robbed of the magic weapon was already furious, his hands were raised, and a colorful light shone towards the two of them. This light may seem beautiful, but it contains a terrifying surging energy. This was the full force of the elder's blow.
Ma Zhongxin shouted in shock, raised the Yin Soul Banner in his hand, and wanted to resist, but the attack of this magic weapon on an elder of the Yudan Stage was simply too weak, and the colored light instantly swallowed these black mist. The defenses of the black mist are like papier-mΓ’chΓ©.
At this time, Wang Yicheng was standing in the light mask, the light mask and his body were slowly blurring, this was a teleportation array, Wang Yicheng was going to be teleported away, and Sha Jingjing and Ma Zhongxin were going to stay here, and there was only one end, that is, to die.
Sha Jingjing stood in front of the light mask with a smile, and slowly said to Wang Yicheng: "I said that I wanted you to enter the second-level array mage, this carving knife has such an effect,"
Wang Yicheng was grateful in his heart, remembering that Sha Jingjing said such things, but he didn't expect that Sha Jingjing would use such a way to fulfill himself.
Sha Jingjing turned his head to look at Ma Zhongxin, his Yin Soul Banner had been destroyed by the colored light, and at this time, the colored light was eroding his body, and at the same time, it was also eroding Sha Jingjing's body. The surfaces of their bodies glowed at the same time. But this colored light is a deadly light, with the effect of spell annihilation.
The two of them began to disappear from their legs and feet, and Ma Zhongxin let out a painful scream. However, Sha Jingjing's expression was very strange. I saw him reach out and hold Ma Zhongxin's palm, and said slowly: "Zhongxin, don't worry, we won't die." β
Ma Zhongxin's eyes flashed with a glimmer of brilliance, as if he was grasping the last straw, and hissed: "Jingjing, you still have a way to get out of here, right?"
Sha Jingjing showed a serene smile on her face, gently stroked Ma Zhongxin's cheek, and slowly shook her head, "No one can leave here, my spell is to let the two of us fuse into the formation together." β
Ma Zhongxin had a shocked expression on his face, "Fusion?
A sweet smile suddenly appeared on Sha Jingjing's face, "Do you remember that night? You swore that you would marry me, you would treat me like a human woman, love me, and feel sorry for me." You have sworn to me, shouting to the stars in the sky, to the mountains and rivers, over and over again. You said you wanted to tell the world about your love for me. From now on I will be the treasure in the palm of your hand, and you shall say this vow to me every day until you are old. β
Sha Jingjing's eyes were confused, and her tone was like a dream, "You hold my hand, your eyes are gentle, you kiss my lips gently, your arms are generous and warm, like a haven from the wind." At that moment, I was intoxicated with your arms, and I was so happy that it seemed that there were only two of us left in heaven and earth. How I wish that time stood still in that moment. From now on, there are only two of us left in heaven and earth, forever and ever. β
Ma Zhongxin suddenly thought of something, and an expression of extreme fear appeared on his face. By this time, the colored light had already annihilated most of their bodies. But this physical pain could not change the fear in his heart.
Sha Jingjing nodded slowly and said, "You thought of it, I used this formation to rewind the effect of time. We will be reborn in the formation and return to that day. And only that day. From then on, we kept repeating that day until we were old. Your vows have come true!"
Ma Zhongxin let out a creepy scream, and in the scream, his and Sha Jingjing's bodies slowly disappeared in the colored light. Perhaps, early the next morning, the two of them will appear somewhere in the formation and forget everything that happened. Ma Zhongxin would tell Sha Jingjing about those vows over and over again, with a magnetic voice and gentle eyes, and Sha Jingjing would show a sweet smile and look at her lover infatuatedly. This happens over and over again, over and over again for 10,000 years.
