Chapter 223 Heart of Array
Chapter 223 Heart of Array
Wang Ziling's scream made Meng Qiqi's heart rise to her throat.He ran forward without any hesitation, even though he crushed the bones on the ground, he didn't stop for a moment.
The dark wind was blowing in his ears, and slowly, his field of vision became wider, and a huge ruin appeared in front of him.
At this time, he had probably reached the center of the city.If the houses on the edge of the city are only a little dilapidated, then the further you go in, the more dilapidated the houses are, until here, it has become an endless ruins like a flat land.
And those strands of black air came from the center of the ruins.
Meng Qiqi ran quickly on the ruins, but Wang Ziling was nowhere to be seen, so anxious that he had to call out his name loudly.
"Wang Ziling! Wang Ziling!"
This situation is really weird, he clearly heard the cry from Wang Ziling, but when he arrived here, there was no one there.
In the whole dead city, it seemed that he was the only living person.
"Wang Ziling!" Meng Qiqi called again, but still no one answered.He was vigilant in his heart, but he didn't believe in evil, so he continued to move forward.
The center of the ruins gave him a dangerous and weird feeling, as if there was a palpitating power lurking there, which made Meng Qiqi's heart beat faster.
What he didn't know was that in the center of the ruins was a huge tiankeng that was exactly the same as the Yinshan secret realm, and Wang Ziling was lying on the edge of the tiankeng, gnashing his teeth and trying to stand up, but was pressed by an invisible force. Can't move.
Blood slid from the corner of his mouth, and the veins on his forehead and neck were bulging, but he still couldn't move, or even speak.He was terrified and anxious looking at everything in front of him, but at this moment he heard Meng Qiqi's voice.
do not come!
do not come!
do not come!
He shouted desperately from the bottom of his heart, but the footsteps were getting closer and closer, making his heart sink.
Meng Qiqi was still approaching, he didn't know what happened in the middle of the ruins, and he didn't know what was hidden in the houses that hadn't collapsed or in the dark alleys around the ruins.
He slowly approached the tiankeng, and the moment he saw the outline of the tiankeng, a trace of surprise and a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes.Tiankeng, there is actually a Tiankeng here!
His footsteps couldn't help but quicken, and he reached the edge of the tiankeng almost instantly. Then, he looked down——
But suddenly, a hand covered his eyes from behind him, and then pulled him back quickly.Meng Qiqi subconsciously showed the dagger hidden in his sleeve and stabbed back, but the moment he could distinguish the human breath, he could barely retract the dagger against his body.
"Master's nephew?!" Meng Qiqi was scared to death by him!
"Behind!" It was Chen Boyan, who had been away for many days, who suddenly appeared. He shouted loudly, and Meng Qiqi quickly drew out his sword, and swung it behind him.
"Boom—" Meng Qiqi used [-]% of his strength for this sword, but he didn't expect the opponent to be tough enough, and it was a posture that wanted to kill him.
Only then did he see clearly that there were many white masks hidden in the houses and alleys around the ruins.
Countless attacks came at this moment.
Meng Qiqi's eyes dimmed, and she was about to meet the enemy, but saw a huge sword fence falling from the sky, protecting them firmly inside.And the man behind him uttered a cold "kill", causing blood to splatter everywhere.
Countless black-feathered troops, like praying mantises catching cicadas and orioles, suddenly appeared from behind the white mask, raising their butcher knives without hesitation.White Mask's attention was all on Meng Qiqi, and he was caught off guard.
So, the dead city where there was no one there was suddenly filled with shouts of killing and shadows of swords and swords, and the instant reversal made Meng Qiqi speechless.
"What's going on?" He looked at Chen Boyan who was dressed in black.
"It's a long story." When Chen Boyan saw Meng Qiqi, no matter how loud the killing was, it seemed that he was the only one left in his eyes.He couldn't help but grab Meng Qiqi's hand, but was slapped away by Meng Qiqi's paw.
Meng Qiqi raised her eyebrows, "If it's too long, just say it briefly!"
Chen Boyan was helpless, "I haven't seen you for a long time, but my uncle is still so impatient."
Meng Qiqi wanted to bite him, "Are you going to tell me or not?"
"There are Wang Ziling and Zhou Ziheng in the tiankeng, you should be mentally prepared first." Chen Boyan suddenly became serious.
"What?!" Zhou Ziheng? !
Meng Qiqi was surprised and delighted, and subconsciously thought of going into the Tiankeng, but the moment he stepped out, he remembered Chen Boyan's action of holding him just now, so his movements immediately slowed down, "Is there something weird about the Tiankeng?"
"En." Chen Boyan pulled Meng Qiqi back, this time Meng Qiqi did not slap him away.The two stood on the edge of the tiankeng and looked down. With just one glance, they saw Wang Ziling lying on the ground, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.
"I can't save him." Chen Boyan answered the doubts in his heart in advance.
"What's going on?" The person is in front of him but he can't save him. Isn't that trying to force him to death?
Chen Boyan's tone was still calm, "Look further ahead."
forward?
Meng Qiqi held her breath, and forced her eyes to move away from Wang Ziling's body, and cast her gaze deeper into the sinkhole.Just one glance makes my scalp tingle.
I saw a lot of people standing in the center of the pit that day, farther away.Those people stood there like stone sculptures, motionless, as if they had been deprived of all vitality.One of them even happened to be looking in Meng Qiqi's direction.
In an instant, Meng Qiqi's goosebumps rose again.He moved his eyes with difficulty, narrowed his eyes to identify those blurred figures, and finally found Zhou Ziheng among them.
"He..." Meng Qiqi gasped.
Chen Boyan said at the right time: "I have tried it. This sinkhole can be entered but not exited. Wang Ziling and Zhou Ziheng have already been trapped in it, and those people in the center may be trapped for a longer time."
Meng Qiqi's eyes widened, "You mean those people entered before the old man was trapped?"
Chen Boyan nodded, "Do you think their positions look like a formation?"
Hearing this, Meng Qiqi took a closer look and found that the positions of these people seemed to hide a mystery.He suddenly thought of something, and immediately said: "Nine-turn life spirit array?"
"This should be the heart of the formation." Chen Boyan said, glanced at the increasingly thick yin in the air, and said in a deep voice: "The formation is about to collapse."
"Wait, let me think it over again." Meng Qiqi felt his brain was about to explode. The countless clues and the sudden truth made him a little confused.
There is really a Jiancheng in the secret realm, and the books they found in the Wang's secret realm that the predecessors missed their hometown read "Jiancheng is far away", which means that Jiancheng is his hometown.
But how could his hometown be a secret place?Isn't the secret realm the place where monsters live?
Today's Jiancheng has become a dead city, and the center of the dead city is the center of the Nine-Revolution Spirit Formation, that is to say, this is the key to maintaining the entire formation.It is this formation that separates the secret realm from the present world, traps monsters, and protects the common people in the world.
The peculiar positions of those people in the center of the formation mean that they stayed here just to maintain the operation of the formation. This is called the sacrificial formation in terms of formation.
And many years ago, Zhou Ziheng got a glimpse of the secret of the secret realm because of the secret map, so he searched here.He entered the heart of the formation and was trapped here...
No, is he really trapped?
Meng Qiqi couldn't help looking at his feet, there was a person lying there.This man was different from the others because he was dead and his clothes had weathered into a skeleton.
Zhou Ziheng took his place.
He was not trapped, but because the original person died, so he took his place.
So for so many years, he has not been heard from, because he can't come out, can't go back!
"Is he dead? Is he already dead?" Meng Qiqi's expression suddenly became agitated. He held onto Chen Boyan's arm tightly, and his eyes, which had not rested for a long time, were bloodshot.
He suddenly didn't know what he was chasing all this time, how could the final result be like this?
Could it be that Zhou Ziheng's disappearance these years was actually to maintain the operation of the big formation, so he sacrificed himself to help the world?
Ha, how could that old man Zhou Ziheng be so impartial? !
"Calm down! Axiu!" Chen Boyan grabbed him firmly, fearing that he would run into the pit on impulse and would never be able to pull him back.
Meng Qiqi took a deep breath, fixed her eyes on the center of the tiankeng, and said, "I'm very calm. You said that the formation is about to collapse, does that mean that someone has to continue to fill in this tiankeng?"
"No. It is impossible for the large formation to continue." Chen Boyan said in a deep voice: "I heard that the way for White Mask to rescue the Beast King is to sacrifice and use the lives and blood of several people to break the suppression of the mountain of corpses. The mountain of corpses is undoubtedly As for the small formation inside the Ninth Turns Life Formation, the method to break the Nine Turns Life Formation should be similar to it."
Hearing this, Meng Qiqi thought of Jinling almost instantly.How many people died in such a huge Jinling?Pushing forward a bit, how many people died in Shuzhong and Nandao?
The monsters have already entered the border, and the situation at the border is likely to be even worse.
Chen Boyan continued: "Lendong found me a few days ago and brought me here. I sent someone to check carefully - this place is not included in any secret realm, it is blocked by a barrier."
"It's Yao Guang, he must have done it." Meng Qiqi came up with this answer almost instantly, and firmly believed it.
He is the one who builds the formation, and he must be the one who hides the heart of the formation.He was the one who killed Ji Yuetang and kept the monsters in captivity. Now that Ji Yuetang has come back to take revenge, this cage is about to be broken.
Looking at Wang Ziling who seemed to be twitching, Meng Qiqi suddenly began to hate herself.Since it is Yao Guang's reincarnation, why can't he recall the past?
If he could remember what happened when Yao Guang was alive, and know the truth earlier, then he wouldn't have to be led by the nose by Ji Yuetang all the time, watching the mountains and rivers fall and his relatives and friends die, but he could only do nothing.
He hated the feeling.
Extremely disgusted.
"Bring all the white masks here and kill me." Meng Qiqi's eyes slowly revealed a gloomy killing intent, "Since the formation is about to be broken, why don't I destroy it in advance .”
Perhaps, it can save Wang Ziling's life.
