Chapter 139 The Tampered Seal
"Master Ziyun?"
Jing Qi's appearance caused the two people who were wandering around the boulder to immediately put down the instruments in their hands and quickly came to his side.
Seeing that Jing Qi had more scars than before, both of them felt a little surprised.
"Master Ziyun, are you okay!" Elder Qi hurried to Jing Qi's side and asked concerned.
"It's okay." Jing Qi waved his hands, indicating that there is no problem. "The monster from before is indeed hiding nearby."
"Ah?" Hearing this, both Wang Sheng and Elder Qi became nervous.
As far as facing the strange beast, the two of them didn't feel much fear at all.
But when they learned that they might have to face monsters, their hearts were somewhat shaken.
In the past, they had only heard of monsters like monsters in legends, but in reality they hardly had any chance to come into contact with them.
But since the incident in the valley, there have been rumors of more than one monster in Lingqing City.
Although they know that these rumors have always existed, they have indeed experienced it personally now, and they have also seen how powerful the monsters are.
So when they learned that there was a monster nearby that was staring at them, the two people who were very calm suddenly became nervous.
"Don't be nervous," Jing Qi said after seeing the appearance of the two, "The monster has already left."
"Leaving?" Wang Sheng was very puzzled, "Shouldn't it?"
In terms of understanding of monsters, Wang Sheng must know a little more than Jing Qi and Elder Qi.
He knew very well how much monsters hated human cultivators, so he still had some doubts about what Jing Qi said.
In the face of Wang Sheng's questioning, Jing Qi rarely used too many words to explain, but only briefly talked about the battle between him and the silverback gorilla.
After listening to this, Wang Sheng probably understood why the monster left here directly.
"By the way, what were you doing when I came?" Jing Qi changed the subject at this time.
Hearing Jing Qi's words, Wang Sheng and the others looked at each other, and then saw Wang Sheng pick up the tablet in his hand and come to Jing Qi's side.
Elder Qi on the side also came to the other side of Wang Sheng at this time, and the eyes of the three people were all on the tablet in his hand at this time.
"When you just went out, we contacted the two formation masters outside."
"We scanned the situation here directly to the outside, and asked them to help see if there is any problem with this formation."
As Wang Sheng spoke, he switched the screen on the tablet in his hand directly to the floor plan of the entire area where they are now.
Looking at the picture in front of him, Jing Qi almost wanted to knock himself on the head.
Why didn't I think of such a simple thing before?
I still have to say that my experience is too little!
If I had experienced more things, I might have found the loophole in this formation long ago.
But it's not too late now, Jing Qi is very much looking forward to the two array mages outside helping him find the answer.
"Master Ziyun, look here." Wang Sheng pointed to a red dot on the tablet.
"This place is the core of the entire formation, and it is also a key node for sealing monsters."
As Wang Sheng spoke, he pointed to the position of the red dot in reality according to the position on the tablet.
Looking in the direction of Wang Sheng's finger, Jing Qi realized that he had been in the wrong position all along.
Before, he always thought that the big rock in front of him was the first one.
But now that he saw the location Wang Sheng pointed out, he realized that the entire area had been covered by the formation.
However, the most critical place is the place he ignored from the beginning.
Looking at the cliff not far away, Jing Qi only noticed a circle of very hidden symbols drawn there.
At first glance, these symbols don't look very regular, and they don't look like some patterns in the formations marked elsewhere. They look very simple and miscellaneous.
But after combining such disorderly symbols, it gives people a very wonderful feeling, as if there is a mysterious meaning in it.
"Is that the formation eye there?" Elder Qi obviously knew more than Jing Qi, so he asked directly.
"Yes, and no." Wang Sheng shook his head, "It is not very clear what is there, so I need the help of Mr. Ziyun."
"Me?" Hearing Wang Sheng's words, Jing Qi pointed at himself unexpectedly.
But then he understood what Wang Sheng meant.
Knowing that the entire area is now covered by formations, and that the cliff is very high, ordinary people have no way to go there.
But Jing Qi is different.
Those in the concentration state can fly in the air for a short period of time, Wang Sheng and the others know this very well.
So now only Jing Qi has the ability to go to that place.
"Okay, I'll try it." Jing Qi agreed without hesitation.
Seeing Jing Qi's straightforwardness, Wang Sheng also breathed a sigh of relief, and then handed over the tablet and a spare walkie-talkie to him.
"Then I will trouble Mr. Ziyun to go to the position of the red dot, and then scan the symbols on it."
"The person on the walkie-talkie will tell you what needs to be done afterward."
"."
Wang Sheng will carefully tell Jing Qi all the points that need attention in the future.
Jing Qi on the side also listened very seriously, keeping in mind what Wang Sheng said to pay attention to.
Afterwards, under the watchful eyes of Wang Sheng and Elder Qi, Jing Qi came to the cliff with some tablets and walkie-talkies.
Compared with the time in the valley, this place does not have too many restrictions, and it also allows Jing Qi to rise freely.
After successfully arriving at the designated location, Jing Qi felt the energy fluctuations emanating from the cliff, and found that the connection between himself and the formation still existed.
And the location where this connection is sent is still near the boulder where Wang Sheng and the others are, and it has nothing to do with the symbols in front of them.
But Jing Qi didn't take it lightly, instead he began to scan the symbols on the rock wall very seriously.
After he pressed the send button, the detailed information about the symbol was sent to the two array mages who had evacuated to a safe location.
Not long after, Jing Qi heard a familiar voice coming out of the walkie-talkie in his hand, talking to the formation master who had been by Wang Sheng's side all the time.
Although Jing Qi didn't know his name until now, it had a profound influence on him.
On the contrary, the elder from Lingqingguan did not leave much influence on him.
Whether it was the battle in the valley that night or the use and understanding of formations, Jing Qi felt that this talent was in line with modern society's understanding of formations.
"Hello, hello. Can you hear me?" The voice on the other end of the walkie-talkie was intermittent.
"I can hear you, please tell me." Jing Qi didn't understand why this happened, so he could only keep in touch with the other party through the walkie-talkie.
Fortunately, it didn't take too long, and Jing Qi quickly got in touch with the other party.
"Master Ziyun?" After hearing Jing Qi's voice, the person on the opposite side was stunned for a few seconds before reacting.
"It's me." Jing Qi responded.
"That's good," the man seemed relieved, and continued, "Master Ziyun, we have already guessed some general information about this formation through the inscription on it."
"This should be the seal Director Wang mentioned earlier, and the seal inside is a powerful monster clan from ancient times."
"Monster clan? Not a monster?" Jing Qi asked puzzled.
Because in ancient times, people clearly distinguished the monster clan from the monster beast.
Jing Qi, who happened to see related books in the library pavilion of Lingqing Temple before, knew something about this.
In ancient times, the ethnic groups inherited from the lineage of the demon gods were born with the ability to transform into human forms. They had very terrifying bloodlines and were born with great strength.
Creatures like this are called monsters by humans.
The monster clan is generally the leader of all the strange beasts and monsters, leading the entire monster clan.
But the monster is just like now, climbing step by step from a mutant creature to the level of being able to transform.
Although the final results are similar, but one is born with it, and the other is acquired through hard work, there is a huge gap in potential between the two.
It is already their limit for many animals to be able to cultivate to change form.
And this is just their first step for Yaozu.
So when he learned that the one who was sealed was a monster clan, Jing Qi felt that things were a little tricky.
At this moment, another unexpected message came from the other end of the walkie-talkie.
"You said that this seal has been tampered with?" Jing Qi asked the other party in an unbelievable tone.
"That's right." This time the voice on the other end of the walkie-talkie was replaced by the elder from Lingqing Temple.
"Although we don't know what's different about this tampered formation."
"However, we can be sure that the original entry method of this formation must not be used."
"So it will take us a while to get in."
After hearing this, Jing Qi also understood what they meant.
"And." Just when Jing Qi was about to ask another question, he heard the other party speak again.
"And what?" Jing Qi asked urgently.
"And it's very likely that those who changed the formation were not human formation masters."
"Ah?" Hearing this, Jing Qi completely didn't know what to say.
Isn't it a human being? Could it be said that people from the Yaozu came in to modify it?
Jing Qi didn't dare to imagine, if there really was a demon clan who discovered the formation, not only didn't release the same kind inside, but tampered with the entire formation?
Unless the two monster races were born with enmity, Jing Qi couldn't think of any other reason.
But for now, everything is normal now, at least this formation did not take the initiative to attack humans.
"By the way," just when the other party was about to end the conversation, Jing Qi suddenly stopped them, "I don't understand something and I want to ask you two."
Jing Qi told the two formation masters on the other end of the walkie-talkie about his long-standing doubts.
After listening to Jing Qi's question, the intercom fell into a brief silence,
It didn't take long for the other party to give their answer.
"We have thought about the question Ziyun asked before."
"The boulder in this formation should also be a key point in this formation."
"Just by scanning, we haven't discovered its specific function yet."
"However, according to my guess, this stone should be the key to entering the formation."
"Master Ziyun might as well take this time to try injecting spiritual power into it, and see if there will be any reaction."
"Of course, there is one thing to pay attention to. Don't inject too much spiritual power at one time. It's best to keep it around the sixth level."
"Sixth order?"
"Yes, this is the result of our estimation."
After hearing the advice given to the two formation masters, Jing Qi finally understood why Wang Sheng and Elder Qi had been circling around the boulder when he came here just now.
Obviously, this sixth-order has made it impossible for them to make any attempts.
Although the strength of both of them is infinitely close or has reached the sixth level of Qi training, after a series of previous battles, they no longer have enough spiritual power in their bodies to support them.
So the two could only look at the big rock at present, but their hearts were strong but their strength was insufficient.
Jing Qi, who had returned to the ground, hadn't waited for him to stand still, and Wang Sheng, who had been waiting around for a long time, rushed over.
"How? Did you find anything?" Wang Sheng looked at Jing Qi expectantly, hoping to get some good news.
In the meantime, Jing Qi shook his head and recounted what the two formation masters said just now.
After listening, the three of them fell into silence, only Jing Qi kept his eyes on the boulder not far away.
Thinking about the opinions given by the two formation masters, he walked carefully to the boulder and put his hand on it again.
"Do you really want to try it?" Wang Sheng and the others knew exactly what Jing Qi was going to do now.
"Well," Jing Qi nodded, "this is the only thing we can do now."
"You can think of going there to hide for a while. In case of any accident, you can leave here as quickly as possible."
Jing Qi pointed to the valley exit not far away, telling Wang Sheng and the others to hide in the past now.
Before, I fought with the silverback gorilla once in the thick fog, and all the groups of silver wolves were wiped out by Jing Qi.
Presumably there was an accident in my place, and the two of them could leave here immediately and return to a safe place.
The current thick fog only obscured the line of sight, but it was no longer a big threat to the two of them.
Some might only have three or two not-so-powerful beasts, Jing Qi believed that Wang Sheng and the others could deal with them very easily.
After seeing Wang Sheng and the others in place, Jing Qi began to inject his spiritual power into the boulder in front of him.
