Chapter 129: Driving the Formation

Chu Ning and the others came to an open space in the direction of the formation.

Then he began to look at the others and estimated the approximate number.

When they first entered the spiritual realm, there were about 400 people in the dojo.

And now, there are still more than 300 people.

It seems that the loss of people along the way is not very large.

Moreover, Chu Ning took a look and found that most of the losses were the group of disciples who entered with him later and broke through to the sixth level of Qi Refining with the help of the Breakthrough Pill.

Of the more than 100 people who entered in the last group, nearly half did not show up, probably because they had an accident on the way.

Seeing this, Chu Ning sighed in his heart at this moment.

"Not everyone is as cautious and lucky as Shang Zhaoxiang, who avoided danger all the way and happened to meet a monster.

For those who have just entered the sixth level of Qi Refining, there is no hope of winning when encountering a first-level high-level monster.

Even if you encounter a first-level intermediate monster, if you are not careful, you can easily lose your life."

While secretly sighing, Chu Ning frowned at the sect's approach.

With the vision and cultivation of these Jindan cultivators in the sect, how could they not know this situation after roughly understanding the situation in the spirit realm.

And the reason for making such a choice is naturally for the so-called interests of the sect.

Just when Chu Ning was thinking about this, ten Qi Refining Perfection cultivators appeared in front of everyone.

The ten people were of different appearances and ages.

The youngest one looked only in his twenties, while the older one was a middle-aged man in his forties.

What made Chu Ning slightly shudder was that, except for three or four people whose auras were weaker than Shang Rui, whom he had met at the beginning.

The auras of the rest of the people were close to his.

The one in the middle was even stronger.

Chu Ning knew that this meant that these people had entered the Qi Refining Perfection Realm for a long time.

Or, these people might have already stepped half a foot into the Foundation Establishment Stage, but just lacked an opportunity.

While Chu Ning was looking at them like this, the middle-aged cultivator who looked the oldest and had the deepest cultivation among the ten people spoke:

"My fellow disciples, my name is Meng Zhenggong, and I am the person in charge of the Spirit Realm arranged by the sect.

You have just entered the Spirit Realm, and you must have heard some information from the brothers you are familiar with.

In order to avoid random guesses from the brothers, today, we will explain the matter to everyone."

Hearing Meng Zhenggong's words, the crowd below suddenly became a little agitated.

After all, everyone may have heard some news from different people, but not everyone has Chu Ning's experience and understands the matter so clearly.

Therefore, everyone was undoubtedly very concerned about what Meng Zhenggong said.

Even Chu Ning was the same, because even the news he heard from Zhuang Yunde did not seem to be so complete.

"The reason why this place is called the Spirit Realm is that spiritual seeds were born here.

Spirit seeds, also known as heaven and earth spiritual seeds, are the most refined spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and are extremely spiritual. It is said that there is only one spiritual seed of each attribute in this world.

Spirit seeds cannot be refined, but if a cultivator can obtain them, he can absorb the spiritual energy in them and comprehend the great way of heaven and earth through the spiritual seeds.

If a cultivator in the Jindan stage can gain enlightenment, there is a great probability that he will enter the Yuanying stage.

And if a cultivator in the Yuanying stage can obtain it, not only can he greatly improve his cultivation, but it is not impossible to even enter the Shenhua stage."

Meng Zhenggong's words caused an uproar below, and also made Chu Ning sigh inwardly.

This so-called spiritual seed actually has such a magical effect, no wonder both the Qingxi Sect and the Yinmo Sect are trying so hard to obtain it.

This was indeed too tempting for the leader of Qingxi Sect and the elders.

As expected, Meng Zhenggong then said with a little excitement:

"Among the seven major sects in our Qingxia Mountain Range, no sect has a Yuanying stage cultivator yet.

If our Qingxi Sect can obtain this spirit seed, there will be a Yuanying stage cultivator, and it will become the largest sect in Qingxia Mountain Range.

And we will become the Qingxi Sect's meritorious service that will be passed down through the ages!"

"Wow!"

As Meng Zhenggong finished speaking, there was an uproar at the scene.

Many people had some strange expressions on their faces.

"Yuanying stage cultivator."

"The largest sect in Qingxi Sect."

...

In the uproar, Meng Zhenggong continued:

"Moreover, as the driver of the formation, we have also gained something..."

When Chu Ning heard this, he knew that the other party should be talking about the spiritual energy that Zhuang Yunde had mentioned.

This was indeed the case. Then Meng Zhenggong used extremely exaggerated words to describe the role of the spiritual energy.

Although the spirit seeds have attributes, this spiritual energy does not have attributes.

It is more like the spiritual energy of heaven and earth gathers when the spiritual energy explodes, so no matter what kind of practice, it can benefit people.

Marrow cleansing, bone improvement... Almost everyone who obtains the spiritual energy can improve their cultivation and greatly increase the success rate of foundation building.

When Meng Zhenggong said these words, Chu Ning slightly turned his head and looked at the people with different expressions, some were excited and excited, and some were confused and bewildered.

But most people still had a blazing light in their eyes.

Chu Ning was watching coldly at this moment. When he saw that Meng Zhenggong did not continue to say how many people would die due to the spiritual aura explosion, he sneered in his heart.

However, Meng Zhenggong's next words made Chu Ning's expression suddenly become extremely serious.

"After we have been driving the formation for many years, three months ago, we finally forced this spirit seed to appear and confirmed that it was a wood spirit seed.

This time, the sect arranged for the junior brothers who practiced wood attribute skills to come in, just to force the wood spirit seed to appear in one fell swoop.

What I didn't explain to the junior brothers before was that in order to avoid more trouble, everyone will directly enter the formation and replace others to drive the formation."

Enter the formation now?

Hearing the words of Meng Zhenggong, Chu Ning, like many other people, was stunned.

After all, what he heard from Zhuang Yunde was completely different from what Meng Zhenggong said now.

Yesterday and two days, everyone was still preparing for a long-term battle.

"So, I don't have to wait for three to five years? And there is no time to adapt and understand, I just want to drive the formation directly?"

Chu Ning was very surprised by Meng Zhenggong's sudden arrangement.

I don't know why they made such a sudden attack.

Is it because of the Yin Demon Sect?

Since they have been here for two days, Chu Ning believes that Tan Zhang should find an opportunity to tell Meng Zhenggong and other people in charge of the Yin Demon Sect's infiltration information.

However, the sect does not seem to have any action at all.

It is not clear whether Meng Zhenggong and others do not know how to identify, so it is difficult to take action, or there are other arrangements.

Of course, these are not what Chu Ning needs to worry about now.

After Meng Zhenggong roughly said these words to everyone, he organized another group of people to come in.

This group of people is larger than Chu Ning and his group, with nearly 500 people.

For a time, there were nearly 800 Qi Refining disciples in this venue.

The faces of these people who came in later were huge and unfamiliar. Chu Ning guessed that they should be the wood attribute disciples who entered earlier and stayed here.

Sure enough, the next moment, Chu Ning heard Meng Zhenggong's voice again.

"Now, all the disciples who practice wood attribute skills have gathered here. Next, we will go to the place where the Qiankun Five Elements Formation is set up.

Replace the brothers who practice other attribute skills. This time, the key to driving the formation abnormality, everyone must obey the arrangement and cast the spell with all their strength..."

At this point, Meng Zhenggong's eyes swept over more than 800 people.

"If anyone makes a mistake in the middle, don't blame us for being rude."

When saying this, Meng Zhenggong's voice was a little colder.

This made everyone look at each other, but mainly because the expressions on the faces of the newcomers were more complicated.

Most of the disciples who had already entered the spiritual realm looked normal, as if they had been mentally prepared.

"Another point to emphasize is that this time, two people will take turns to drive the formation.

There will be no one else to replace in the short term, and the sect has specially prepared sufficient Huiyuan Pills for everyone.

If you feel that your mana is about to run out, you must immediately take over and rotate, and take Huiyuan Pills to restore your mana as soon as possible, so as to avoid accidents due to the exhaustion of mana."

Speaking of this, Meng Zhenggong took out a jade slip from his hand, and then said:

"Next, divide the names into groups according to the names I read out. After the groups are divided, the ten of us will lead them into the formation."

Meng Zhenggong read out the names one by one, and the 800 people were divided into four groups.

There were a small number of about 30 people whose names were not read out, including the group of disciples who temporarily broke through to the sixth level.

But there were also some disciples who were at the seventh and eighth levels of Qi Refining, and even several disciples who were at the ninth level of Qi Refining and Qi Refining Perfection.

I don't know why.

Chu Ning was arranged to the third group. What surprised Chu Ning a little was that Zhuang Yunde was also in the same group as him.

But in the specific order of the number plates, there were a few gaps.

When the two walked out, they looked at each other, which was considered an eye contact.

As for the other people Chu Ning knew, they were not assigned to the same group as him.

Tan Zhang was in the first group, Mu Ling was in the fourth group, Shang Zhaoxiang and Lin Lan were in the second group.

Shang Zhaoxiang had just broken through from the fifth level of Qi Refining to the sixth level of Qi Refining, but he was also selected. I don’t know whether it is lucky or unfortunate.

Chu Ning observed the situation of each group again and found that the realm matching was very even, basically high-level disciples were matched with low-level disciples.

Obviously, Meng Zhenggong and others also knew the realm of everyone.

Chu Ning followed the people in the third group. The two Qi Refining Perfection cultivators led the team. One of them was a cultivator named Yan in his early thirties, who didn’t talk much.

The other was a cultivator named Liu in his twenties. He was talking to everyone, but there was a hint of arrogance in his expression.

There was also a disciple at the ninth level of Qi Refining. After the three of them checked the personnel one by one, they directly gave each person a jade bottle that was much larger than the usual one for pills.

When Chu Ning opened it and took a closer look, he couldn't help but be a little surprised.

This larger jade bottle actually contained 100 Huiyuan Pills.

"Are you preparing for a long-term fatigue war?"

Chu Ning sighed slightly in his heart, and naturally didn't say much.

He followed the monk named Yan and left the residential area and walked towards the formation.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Chu Ning also sent a voice transmission to Zhuang Yunde and asked:

"Brother Zhuang, if this spiritual energy explodes, can it be resisted by magic tools and talismans?"

This is a very critical question, Chu Ning originally planned to stay here for a while to understand it clearly.

But what Chu Ning did not expect was that he would go to the formation so soon.

"Yes."

Chu Ning breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Zhuang Yunde's affirmative answer.

In terms of his defensive ability, he is still good among the crowd.

He walked forward silently with the crowd.

"The concentration of this spiritual energy..."

As he walked towards the formation, Chu Ning found that the concentration of spiritual energy was constantly increasing, and he could not help but be greatly surprised.

After walking about a mile, when everyone came to a mountain, the concentration of spiritual energy was more than twice as high as before.

The whole mountain was shrouded in a white mist, which made it not very clear.

Even Chu Ning, who had an outstanding spiritual sense, always felt that he couldn't see through the mountain in front of him.

Chu Ning naturally wouldn't use his spiritual sense to explore, but just looked at the leader who had stopped.

At this time, the monk surnamed Yan took out a yellow flag from his hand.

He injected his magic power, and the flag suddenly flashed yellow light.

Then, the monk surnamed Yan pointed at the white mist in front of the crowd.

Then, the white mist automatically dispersed, revealing a passage that could accommodate one person.

"It turned out to be a formation." Chu Ning was a little surprised at this time.

The white mist just now was not completely due to the rich spiritual energy, but was covered by the formation so that everyone couldn't see clearly.

"Let's go in."

At this time, the monk surnamed Yan came out, and the young monk surnamed Liu walked in first.

Chu Ning and others, under the gaze of the monk surnamed Yan, entered one by one.

After entering through the foggy passage, everyone saw the situation inside, which surprised everyone.

At this time, everyone was already on a not very high mountain. In front of everyone, there were two hundred people sitting cross-legged.

These two hundred people were sitting around one hundred bowl-sized stone pillars.

Half of them were sitting cross-legged in meditation.

The other half put their hands on a stone pillar in front of them, and their magic power surged. Obviously, they were exerting magic power on the pillar.

In front of these two hundred people, a red light with magic power shot out in the air.

At the same time, there were four different colors of light in the air: green, yellow, white, and gold.

After the five lights gathered, they were thrown into a depression surrounded by five mountains.

There, there was a faint flash of light, but Chu Ning and others could not see it clearly.

"Next, I say, listen, don't make any noise, so as not to disturb the brothers in front who are casting spells and driving formations."

The monk surnamed Liu turned his head at this moment and spoke to Chu Ning and others.

"Many people have driven the wood attribute formation on another hill before, which is the same as the wood attribute formation you have driven before.

According to the order, two people are responsible for one stone pillar in a team, and they just need to inject their mana into the stone pillar.

The newcomers just watch from the side and follow the instructions."

Said the monk surnamed Liu, his face was serious and he continued:

"Because we will switch directly from the five elements to the pure wood attribute later, we must obey the unified command.

The brothers who are casting fire attribute skills in front are also the same. If we don't hear the command, we can't stop the mana transmission."

After the monk surnamed Liu finished speaking, he asked everyone again if they understood.

After everyone nodded, he continued to speak:

"Okay, the brothers who are regulating their breath can withdraw now, and the first team of wood attribute disciples should go forward and prepare."

As the monk surnamed Liu spoke, the people who were originally sitting and regulating their breath left, and hundreds of people came forward immediately.

These people were people who had already entered the spirit realm and used formations like Zhuang Yunde and others.

However, at this moment, the monk surnamed Liu did not rush to order everyone to take over.

In this way, they waited for about a cup of tea.

The monk surnamed Yan, who had never been outstanding, suddenly said:

"Disciples of wood attribute skills, prepare, listen to my order to take over."

As the monk surnamed Yan said this, Zhuang Yunde and others stretched out their palms and approached the stone pillar.

After waiting for a few more breaths, the monk surnamed Yan shouted.

"Three, two, one, change!"

As these words came out, one hundred disciples of wood attribute skills quickly put their palms on the stone pillar.

The disciples who originally practiced fire-attributed techniques withdrew their hands immediately.

The next moment, the red light in the air flashed and instantly turned into a green light.

At the same time, the other white, yellow, and gold lights also changed color to green light.

Only the green light at the beginning did not change at all.

Five green lights gathered in the air to form a thick green light column, which went straight into the ground.

For a while, the underground light flashed.

However, there was no big movement. The underground light seemed to be like a black hole, constantly swallowing the mana light column.

"The disciples of the fire-attributed techniques can evacuate, and the remaining disciples of the wood-attributed techniques should prepare to take over."

The cultivator surnamed Liu spoke again at this moment, and the fire-attributed technique disciple who had just withdrawn his mana retreated to the back.

A trace of surprise appeared on their faces.

However, everyone quickly withdrew from the formation under the guidance of the ninth-level Qi Refining disciple.

Chu Ning and others followed the order and came to the side of the stone pillars and sat cross-legged.

Chu Ning's partner was a ninth-level Qi Refining disciple named Wang Wei Zhong, who was not tall and had a dark complexion.

The two had a brief exchange before, and Chu Ning learned that the other party was a disciple of the Spirit Beast Room.

Seeing that the other party's face was relatively relaxed after the injection of mana, Chu Ning had a rough idea of ​​the consumption of this mana.

Then, Chu Ning looked at the green lights that gathered together with some curiosity.

"This Five Elements Qiankun Formation can not only condense the power of the five elements, but also gather mana of the same attribute, which is very magical."

Chu Ning has always known that the formations of the seven major sects in the Qingxia Mountains are not good, but after seeing this formation, Chu Ning thinks that if this formation is really set up by the Qingxi Sect.

It should not be difficult to set up a teleportation formation, but I don't know why it was not set up.

Then, Chu Ning's eyes unconsciously fell on the flowing light under the thick green light.

"If nothing unexpected happens, that should be where the wood spirit seed is.

By constantly gathering magic power and spiritual energy? And then forcing it to appear in the world?"

Chu Ning vaguely guessed some of the intentions of setting up this formation, but he was a little confused. What happens after the spirit seed appears in the world?

How can we get it with the help of others here?

The sect obviously has a backup plan, but I don't know what it is.

And...

Chu Ning's eyes inadvertently swept to the left.
