Chapter 664 The Female Supporting Character Who Gave Gold Finger to the Apocalypse 27
"Is the Heart-Bewitching Mirror the magic weapon of your Tianshi Sect?"
If that were the case, then they shouldn't have failed to notice this, or at least they should have thought of it.
Hui Qing shook his head. "No, Su Yin got the Bewitching Mirror from somewhere. He never said where he found it, but it must have come from a local thief. Master said the Bewitching Mirror is filled with yin energy and is probably the foundation of a protective formation in some large tomb."
"Why didn't you think of him when you saw the maze outside?" Xiao Yun still asked his doubts.
Hui Qing and his two junior brothers and sisters exchanged a glance, then looked at Xiao Yun and scratched his head a little embarrassedly, "It's because we're not very skilled in martial arts, especially when it comes to formations. We only have a superficial understanding and can't even tell what kind of formation it is."
Shuisheng of the Maoshan Sect said at this time: "I am sorry to have made a fool of myself, Senior. I do have some knowledge of formations, but when the Yin Qi and those evil spirits appeared at first, and then I couldn't contact the outside world, I thought I had entered the realm of the great ghost.
In addition, the Heroic Soul had its soul power sucked away, so we focused our energy on finding a way to rescue the Heroic Soul and didn't pay attention to anything else."
Xiao Yun nodded, "This formation does have the Ghost General's domain integrated into it, and it mainly targets those heroic souls, trapping them so they can't break free.
This formation is indeed quite ingenious. It is a trap within a maze, and coupled with a ghost realm, it can easily lead people astray and cause them to miss the real solution.
In fact, this formation has a fatal flaw, which is that it is only effective against those within the formation. In fact, it is easy to break from the outside. That is because there were no Xuanmen people outside who understood the formation before, otherwise it should have been solved before we arrived."
Xiao Yun briefly told them how to crack the formation so that they would know how to do it if they encountered it again. Of course, it would only work if it was just the formation. If, like this time, there was a ghost general causing trouble, then even if the formation was cracked, they would not be able to escape.
By this time they had arrived at the place where the heroic souls were. It was a large room like a warehouse, with a circle of large shelves reaching the ceiling, with as many as twenty or thirty layers. They were densely packed with spirit tablets, giving it a feeling a bit like a large ancestral hall.
Those tablets were carved by the Taoists specifically for those heroic souls. They have their names and dates of birth and death on them, so that their souls have a place to rest and can also receive offerings and incense from their descendants.
It is especially beneficial to the martyrs who have no descendants, no relatives, and even no names left behind.
Although many heroes have their names recorded and have been named martyrs, there are even more unknown heroes who have not left their names.
Because there is no one left in their family, and even because of war and migration, there is no trace of their existence. If it were not for the return of their souls, which allowed them to be reborn, they might really be just unknown heroes.
Xiao Yun only took a glance at the tablets and knew which ones had no souls in them. There were thousands of spirit tablets here, but now only one-fifth of them were left.
The remaining souls had more or less some golden light of merit on them, and it was these golden light of merit that protected them. After all, it also had an effect on the ghost generals and helped them resist.
Xiao Yun sighed, for the disappearance of those loyal and brave men who still cared about their country even after their death, and also for his own late arrival.
Unfortunately, their souls have already dispersed and cannot be retrieved. Of course, even if they were still there, since this world is not yet connected to the underworld, she cannot help them to be reincarnated and have a good life in the next life.
The other heroic souls are not doing well either. They have now returned to their respective spirit tablets to recuperate, but there are too many souls here and the Yin energy is simply not enough.
Xiao Yun could see through the tablets that their souls were very weak, and some were becoming increasingly faint and almost disappeared.
I originally wanted to set up a Yin spirit gathering array for them, but those who were too weak were no longer suitable. After thinking about it, I took out the soul flag, directly collected those particularly weak heroic souls into the flag, and then put it into the space.
There is spiritual energy in the space, plus the soul beads she collected before, which have a nourishing effect on the soul, not to mention these ordinary souls, so they can recover quickly.
For the rest, those whose damage was not serious, as long as they had enough Yin Qi, they could recover after resting for a period of time. She set up an enhanced Yin Gathering Array for them and let them recuperate here.
The formation only encircled this large room, and the entrance of the Yin energy faced the mountain where Su Yin and the ghost general were before.
The ghost general was there before, and the yin energy there is heavier than other places.
As for that ancient tomb, due to the passage of time and changes in the earth's crust, the once Feng Shui treasure land has changed and become a place where corpses are kept, which is unlucky.
So even though it had been visited by tomb robbers, the main tomb chamber had not been touched. Only the burial objects in the ear chamber had been moved into the inner tomb passage, and those tomb robbers had turned into a pile of white bones. One can imagine how heavy the yin energy was there.
When she was setting up the formation, she did not do it behind everyone's back, but explained it to them as she went along. As for how much they could understand, it depended on their own comprehension.
The materials she used for the formation were all from this world, without any ulterior motives. Some wood and stones with yin attributes would be enough. The main thing was the formation pattern and direction. The level of skill in these two techniques could directly affect the strength of the formation.
"You don't have to worry about this. Even if they recover later, this formation will still work. As long as you don't stay in it for too long, it won't have any effect on people."
The last sentence is for the soldiers to hear. Everyone in the Xuanmen sect knows this, so there is no need to specifically remind them.
After finishing all this, Xiao Yun asked Hui Qing, "Do you want to go over there and collect the belongings of that traitor from your Tianshi Sect? He was attacked by the backlash of the formation and was eaten by the ghosts he raised. His things are still there, including the Bewitching Mirror."
Hui Qing was a little surprised. After all, according to Xiao Yun's previous statement, she and Huo Mingxuan went straight to the camp after they arrived. Then how did she know the situation in Su Yin?
Xiao Yun saw his confusion and explained directly, "When a cultivator reaches a certain level of cultivation, they can project their spiritual consciousness outward, and use it to understand the situation within a certain range."
All the people from the Xuanmen present widened their eyes. It was not that they were unaware of this metaphysical knowledge. After all, the inheritance had not been broken and it was recorded in ancient books.
What shocked them was Xiao Yun's cultivation level. They originally thought that he was only slightly higher than Master Li, but they didn't expect that he was already above the Jindan stage!
The other party has such a high level of cultivation at such a young age. I don’t know which school or sect he learned from, or what kind of great opportunity he encountered.
