Chapter 185 Xuanwu Formation
Nangong Chi reported the situation he had just discovered to the Holy Lord. However, after the people from the Northern Ridge Holy Land came to check, they found nothing unusual.
The Xuanwu Grand Formation has been operating normally, without any changes from the past.
"According to the records left by the Holy Land, the Xuanwu Formation was originally created by the Central Holy Land to fight against the demons. If the demons were to secretly invade, the Xuanwu Formation would definitely react and would not be so calm."
Elder Wan, who had been sent there, explained.
The other white-robed managers breathed a sigh of relief. They had been so tense because of the demons that they suspected the demons were behind any change.
The stewards returned to their posts to guard the area, but Elder Wan took a peek inside before the Xuanwu Formation was completely sealed.
He saw Lan Yue curiously bite one of the Xuanwu pillars, which then became enraged and sent her flying.
Elder Wan: "..."
Excellent, this is Lan Yue's style!
After being thrown back, Lan Yue casually patted her clothes, pretending that nothing had happened.
Anyway, the Xuanwu Formation is so big, and there are countless Xuanwu stakes arranged in front of her. As long as she doesn't say anything, no one will know!
Lan Yue's resolve was firm.
Seeing that the Xuanwu battle had officially begun, she quickly took out her communication stone to contact her other friends.
However, just as she had guessed, the sound transmission stone had lost its effectiveness within this Xuanwu formation and was now just a useless pile of stone.
Lan Yue sighed deeply; it seemed she would have to fight alone in the early stages.
But it doesn't matter, as long as she can survive for three days, she can complete the mission and pass this competition!
Just like in the battle royale game of my past life, as long as I'm sneaky enough, no one can find me!
She must be the chosen one!
When the female lead charges ahead, she'll be clapping and cheering from behind!
Since this isn't a team competition, she figured she could lie down for a while.
But how can one perfectly disguise oneself so that others don't discover it, and even prevent the formation from interfering with one's actions?
Lan Yue seemed to have some impression of the Xuanwu Formation, so she looked through the introduction on the nine-story formation tower, decided to study the formation, and then hide it in accordance with the rules of the formation.
After all, knowing yourself and your enemy is the key to victory in every battle, and the same applies to battle formations.
So Lan Yue's consciousness sank into the nine-layered array tower, beginning preparations for her effortless victory.
On the other side, Yunxi was also transferred to the Xuanwu Formation, but she was directly teleported to the Xuanwu Stake.
There were also people on the other Xuanwu pillars, and these people looked at each other warily.
Compared to those cultivators in the late Foundation Establishment stage or even the early Golden Core stage, Yunxi was much more low-key; her cultivation level was only at the early Foundation Establishment stage.
In a short period of time, it is already very fast for an ordinary person with nothing to cultivate to the early stage of Foundation Establishment.
However, it's not enough in the competitions in the North and South.
After all, this competition has quite a few senior brothers and sisters at the Golden Core stage. To compete with these people for the wooden token is really overestimating one's own abilities.
However, the Northern Ridge Holy Land had taken these Foundation Establishment disciples into account from the beginning and had already added formations and set rules on the Xuanwu Stakes in advance.
They need to figure out this rule themselves.
Yunxi didn't act rashly. Her first thought was to use the communication stone to contact her other friends. However, like Lanyue, she couldn't use the communication stone at all.
Undeterred, she immediately put away the communication stone, revealed her weapon, and observed her surroundings.
"Damn it, what are the people from the Northern Ridge Holy Land thinking? They're putting us, who are only at the Foundation Establishment stage, together in this competition with Golden Core cultivators. How can we, as Foundation Establishment disciples, possibly compare to Golden Core disciples?"
On the other Xuanwu pillars, people were cursing and swearing.
"Those Golden Core disciples don't like us. They'll definitely kill us all in order to grab more wooden tokens!"
The man wanted to shout a few more words, but suddenly he saw a figure jump over from not far away and land directly on his Xuanwu stake.
The man was so frightened that he trembled and tried to run away.
Because the one that just flew over was a Golden Core disciple he knew!
"What terrible luck have I encountered?" His face turned pale, and he crawled on his knees.
However, after the Golden Core disciple made his move, he discovered that something was amiss.
Why is the opponent's attack not very powerful?
…
"So that's how it is! The Xuanwu wooden stakes inside the Xuanwu Formation have such a function: they can compress two cultivators of different levels into the same level so that they can compete!"
"No wonder the Northern Ridge Holy Land didn't differentiate between Foundation Establishment and Golden Core disciples in this competition; they had already made preparations."
Lan Yue checked the description of the Xuanwu Grand Array in the nine-layered array and suddenly understood.
"Should I just lie around in this competition as originally planned and be the chosen one?" Lan Yue pondered to herself.
