Chapter 70 After the Great Array
"This is a reflection of the external environment, but what's going on with these moving millimeters?" Lu Yufeng discovered that although these millimeters moved slowly, they did so in an extremely regular manner. "It can't be like this, right?" Lu Yufeng withdrew his spiritual energy from his dantian and then opened his closed eyes to discover that above the sky in front of him, there were strands of spiritual energy converging and moving about. Lu Yufeng quickly sank his spiritual energy into his dantian and discovered that these flowing spiritual energies flowed along the same trajectory as the green millimeters' movement. The web-like structure within Lu Yufeng's dantian was a miniature replica of everything outside.
Following the guidance of the green aura in his dantian, Lu Yu Feng discovered the trajectory of this naturally formed grand array. "So that's how it is!" In an instant, Lu Yu Feng understood the reason behind everything.
"Just knowing the trajectory is useless. I still can't get out of the big array, and it's all in vain." Lu Yufeng opened his eyes again, continuing to observe the flow of spiritual energy, hoping to find a way to break through the array. Lu Yufeng had never systematically studied the art of arrays, nor had he ever learned anything about arrays. Otherwise, based on the flow of spiritual energy, Lu Yufeng would have been able to figure out how to get out of the array.
"What a pity! It's really a pity!" Lu Yufeng couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
What Lu Yu Feng didn't notice was that when he opened his eyes to look at the big formation, a faint green light appeared in his eyes. Gradually, both of his eyes were like they had been poured with green juice, filled with a bright green glow. Before long, on Lu Yu Feng's forehead, a drop of liquid slowly emerged, in a green state. If Lu Yu Feng himself saw the green droplet on his own head, he would definitely recognize it - its shape and color were exactly the same as the green droplet in his dantian.
"Huh? Why is it a bit different?" Lu Yufeng kept staring at the flow, then compared it with the green aura in his body, and found some subtle differences. The green aura in his body flowed from the top down to the left foot, and went to the left, while the spiritual energy flow outside the formation actually went to the right. Because there were too many auras and spiritual energy flows, Lu Yufeng didn't notice it at first, but now he carefully observed and found this tiny difference.
Lu Yu stood up and slowly approached the big array. This subtle difference, Lu Yu's body fully integrated into the natural realm, slowly feeling the flow of spiritual energy.
"It's indeed the case!" Lu Yufeng discovered that this formation wasn't a purely natural illusion formation. This formation fundamentally couldn't be formed, its foundation was insufficient and slightly lacking. However, it had been discovered by someone, and the person who discovered it was extremely well-versed in the way of formations. With the technique of cultivating spirits, they perfected this formation. The technique of cultivating spirits involved planting a certain type of spiritual creature, then using special methods to nurture its growth, and finally allowing it to become a spirit.
However, the acquired later on is after all a postnatal thing, and it can't compare to the naturally formed array, there will always be deficiencies. Lu Yu Feng relied on the flow of millet light in his body to discover this thread of abnormality.
"So that's how it is!" Lu Yufeng sensed for a long time and finally found the flaw. One corner of this formation, where Lu Yufeng sensed, every half hour, there was a brief pause of half a breath, this pause would create a small hole that could allow one person to crawl through, Lu Yufeng could take advantage of this half-breath time to escape from this small hole, this was the flaw that Lu Yufeng discovered after sensing for a long time.
Lu Yu Feng remembered this place and slowly backed away from the spot where a small hole would appear, planning to take advantage of this brief moment to rush out from here.
Lu Yu Feng took a deep breath, slowly counting down the time. He was extremely nervous, and all of this was just his own speculation, it wasn't necessarily true at all. Everything would have to wait for Lu Yu Feng's verification.
"It's now!" Lu Yufeng's heart tightened, and he pounced towards the small hole that was about to appear. His entire body couldn't possibly pass through it, but as he approached the small hole, Lu Yufeng suddenly lay flat on his back, slapped the ground with both hands, closed his eyes tightly, and charged into the formation.
"Boom!" Lu Yu Feng's upper body had already emerged, but the half-breath time had passed. The array's impact force directly slammed into Lu Yu Feng's legs that hadn't yet come out, instantly sending him flying far away from the array.
"Cough, cough... finally came out!" Lu Yufeng was injured by the force of this impact, and then he felt lucky that he hadn't miscalculated, or else he would have been unable to come out. Moreover, if his physical body wasn't strong enough, he would have definitely perished in this array. Lu Yufeng felt lucky at the same time, and his determination to temper his physical body became even firmer.
I don't know what the situation will be like after this spell, Lu Yufeng raised his spirits and looked around.
"Huh?" Lu Yufeng saw that after this formation, there was only a clear pond, and next to the pond was a thatched hut. The door of the thatched hut was tightly closed.
"Will we not enter the retreat of any predecessor? Forgetting Return Residence? It's actually Forgetting Return Residence!" Lu Yufeng saw a large stone monument standing on the other side of the pond, with "Forgetting Return Residence" written on it. When Lu Yufeng and others first entered the ancient ruins, they had seen a stone monument at the entrance, which also read "Forgetting Return Residence", exactly the same as this one.
"It seems that this is the real center of the ruins!" Lu Yufeng exclaimed. The ruins were indeed guarded too tightly, and the center of the Forgotten Abode was actually protected by a natural formation, which even the power of the divine soul could not penetrate. Lu Yufeng remembered that the divine soul had told him that the person's power could not seep in, and it seemed that there really was a great opportunity now. Lu Yufeng couldn't help but sigh in amazement.
Lu Yu Feng slowly approached the thatched cottage, stretched out his hand to push open the door of the thatched cottage. Lu Yu Feng couldn't believe it, this thatched cottage was now inhabited by someone, otherwise, this place would not have become a relic either.
Lu Yu pushed open the thatched hut and walked in slowly. The interior was very simple, with only one table and four bamboo stools. On the table was a teapot, creating a serene and elegant atmosphere.
"Just by looking at the decorations, I can tell that this is the residence of a reclusive and refined elder. From the moment he stepped into the thatched cottage, Lu Yufeng's heart had entered a state of serenity, as if he was detached from worldly concerns and completely isolated from the outside world. On the left side of the room, there was another bamboo door slightly ajar. Lu Yufeng slowly walked towards this bamboo door, pushed it open, and stepped inside. He looked around cautiously, but suddenly became startled and hastily retreated from the room."
"Elder, junior didn't know this was elder's secluded retreat, disturbing elder's quiet cultivation, forgive junior's intrusion!" Lu Yufeng retreated to the bamboo door, clasped his fists and bowed, saying. Lu Yufeng waited for a while, but didn't hear any sound coming from inside.
"Senior, junior didn't know this was senior's place of seclusion, disturbing senior's quiet cultivation, forgive senior for the intrusion!" Lu Yufeng waited for a long time, but didn't see any movement, and spoke again. However, after waiting for a long time, there was still no response.
"I'll go in and take a look, to see what's going on." Lu Yufeng plucked up his courage and stepped into the thatched hut again, taking a closer look. He saw this senior sitting cross-legged on a rush cushion, eyes closed, with a peaceful expression.
"Senior! Senior!" Lu Yufeng shouted twice, seeing no movement, he released his consciousness to feel the state of this senior.
"Boom!" As soon as Lu Yufeng's consciousness touched this person, he felt a dizziness and then fainted. When Lu Yufeng woke up, he suddenly remembered his situation, flipped his right hand, and a long knife appeared in his hand. With the surge of true yuan, he slowly observed his surroundings.
"Where is this?" Lu Yufeng found himself appearing in a starry sky, his feet treading on thin air. Lu Yufeng was shocked, treading on thin air, what kind of realm was this? When did he become so powerful?
"Fellow Taoist, do not be afraid, I am Shi Dao Ren!" Just as Lu Yu Feng was in a state of shock, a faint figure slowly appeared in the empty space in front of him, and as soon as he appeared, he said to Lu Yu Feng.
