C692 Enter the Formation
According to Lin Cheng's divine sense, the formation in front of him wasn't a killing formation. It was more used for probing and sending messages. However... He had not found the Array Flag, so he could not accurately determine it. If he could find the Array Flag and see the Array Pattern on it, he might be able to identify what kind of formation it was.
After all, back in the Tianluo Secret Realm, what he obtained was not just the Broken Knife and the advancement of his realm. He had obtained a large amount of Array Pattern from Feng Guizhou, and he had some attainments in formations. Although he couldn't compare to those formation experts, he still needed to identify the formation. But it's not a big deal.
Unfortunately, the formation in the storm covered a large area. No one knew if it was because the person who set up the formation was an expert or because Lin Cheng's Consciousness Probing wasn't big enough. Along the way, he didn't even find a single Array Flag. Helpless, the two of them had no choice but to force their way in.
Now that they had turned around and returned to Dongzhou, it wouldn't be a problem, although they might be hunted down by half-step supreme elders or even supreme elders. However, Lin Cheng and Zhu Ziqiao had powerful magic treasures in their hands. With Lin Cheng's Cultivation Level, it may not be impossible to escape unscathed.
However, the two of them did not have much cultivation resources on them. Furthermore, if they kept hiding, they would not have much time to cultivate.
Therefore, since they had decided to go to Mobei, they wouldn't change their mind just because they were blocked by the formation.
As the two of them got closer and closer to the formation, Lin Cheng became more and more vigilant. He used his Divine Sense to probe the formation carefully, not letting any abnormalities slip by.
"Hmm?"
Just as the two of them arrived at the edge of the grand formation and were about to force their way in, Lin Cheng suddenly frowned.
Zhu Ziqiao immediately became alert. Her hand that was holding the Treasure Seal instantly tightened and was ready to activate it at any time.
"Don't be nervous."
Lin Cheng patted her small hand and the spiritual sense transmitted sound, "I seem to have sensed something."
Zhu Ziqiao immediately nodded her head and became even more vigilant.
Lin Cheng's Divine Sense carefully probed. Gradually, a surprised look appeared in his eyes. In his Divine Sense, the formation in front of him was actually superimposed. However, it wasn't superimposed from the inside, but from the outside. The coverage of the formation was superimposed.
"So that's how it is!"
Lin Cheng finally understood why this formation was so grand. It turned out that there was more than one formation in this storm. This formation wasn't as grand as he had thought. The reason why this formation covered such a long distance was because of this. That was because many formations formed a long formation belt!
These array formations were arranged along the path of the storm, and the edges of these array formations were connected together. Perhaps it was because the Array Pattern was the same, or perhaps it was because the person who set the formation was too brilliant. These formations were connected together and became one. It was almost undetectable.
If it wasn't because Lin Cheng wanted to barge into the formation and get close to the edge, he might not have been able to detect the profoundness of the formation.
This caused Lin Cheng to be amazed by the skill of the person who set up the formation. At the same time, he couldn't help but feel a little surprised in his heart. What kind of formation was it that set up such a formation? And why was it set up in this storm?
More importantly, these formations were connected together. There was no gap in the middle of these formations. If this continued all the way to the end of the Prefecture Boundary, then they would have to break through the formation if they wanted to pass through the Prefecture Boundary.
But in this way, the formation in the storm would certainly be activated. At that time, whether it was probing or sending a message, it would definitely alert the person who set up the formation, or those who were related to this formation.
In fact, there were no powerful formations inside the formation, such as killing formations. Lin Cheng had no idea at this moment. When he realized that this was a probing and transmitting formation... He immediately took back the spiritual sense and kept using the Consciousness Probing. Otherwise, with the range of his spiritual senses, he would have been able to detect everything within the formation.
"No matter what, I have to force my way in."
Lin Cheng said, "No matter who laid this formation, this man's attainment in formations is absolutely extraordinary. I'm afraid it will be very difficult for him to pass through the Prefecture Boundary without alerting the enemy."
Putting aside how many Array Flags and materials were needed to set up these formations, just the fact that he could set up a formation in the storm was enough to prove that this man was no ordinary cultivator.
He was afraid that such a man wouldn't have any flaws. The two of them had been walking in the storm for such a long time, but they still hadn't walked out of the range of the formation. Lin Cheng guessed that the entire Prefecture Boundary was probably filled with this kind of formation.
Furthermore, even if there were some flaws in the formation, he didn't know how long it would take for them to walk forward, and how much time would be wasted.
Since that was the case, it was better for them to charge through the formation. Even if they alerted the person who set up the formation, there wouldn't be any grudges between them and the person who set up the formation. They were afraid that there wouldn't be a life-and-death battle between the two of them.
"Could it be... that it was set up by a half-step mighty figure?"
At this moment, Zhu Ziqiao suddenly thought of a possibility and could not help but ask.
Lin Cheng immediately understood what she meant and couldn't help but shake his head and smile, "It shouldn't be possible. An expert at the half-step Almighty realm. I'm afraid that they won't spend so much effort to set up the formation in Prefecture Boundary unless they want to prevent the Great Devil from leaving Dongzhou."1
This was obviously impossible. If those experts really cared about the Great Devil so much... It wouldn't be to the extent that they haven't done anything until now. To deal with the Great Devil... The best time would be before the Great Devil broke through the suppression. Otherwise... Once the Great Devil broke through the suppression of the Great Tripod, what kind of array formation would that be? Even a half-step Supreme Elder wouldn't be of much use.
Therefore, Lin Cheng was almost certain that this formation wasn't used to deal with the Great Devil. Even if it was really set up by a half-step Almighty, it definitely had another purpose.
Furthermore, this formation had a huge range and was very shocking. However, if it was compared to a half-step supreme expert, Lin Cheng felt that it was still a little petty.
To an ordinary cultivator, Prefecture Boundary might be a hopeless situation, but to the Expert of Divine Ability Stage, the danger was very little, let alone a half-step Great Devil.
Such an act was probably not the style of a half-step Supreme Elder.
Zhu Ziqiao nodded. Actually, she was still a little worried. This grand array might have been set up by those experts to block the two of them. But after thinking about it, how did those people know that they were heading to Mobei? And they were able to set up such a formation in such a short period of time?
She knew that she was overthinking it.
"Let's go, we'll know once we try." Lin Cheng held Zhu Ziqiao's hand. Without any hesitation, he stepped into the formation.
Hu!
In an instant, the formation was activated.
