C172 Grand Opening
Zhou Yi followed behind Qiu Sheng and arrived at a wilderness where Jiang City was located at the east side of the city.
Looking at the endless withered grass, Zhou Yi pondered for a moment, then said, "Why did you say that the eight keepsakes can activate the formation? Didn't you say nine?"
Qiu Sheng did not say anything, and only closed his eyes and took in a deep breath of the surrounding air. After a long while, he slowly opened his eyes, and then smiled: "The formation back then did indeed have nine Formation Eye s sealed. Only by activating all nine Formation Eye s at the same time would it be possible to activate the formation …"
Speaking up to here, Qiu Sheng paused, "However, the situation has changed. The ninth Formation Eye has already been severely damaged. As long as eight Formation Eye appear at the same time, the ninth Formation Eye will also be affected and be washed away."
"So that's how it is!"
Zhou Yi nodded.
He did not expect Qiu Sheng to know so clearly, as if everything was done by him.
Thinking about that, Zhou Yi swept his gaze across Zhou Yi once again.
"You step back first. I'll first place the tokens in this area. When all eight tokens have been pressed down, I can activate all eight formations at the same time and activate the formation."
Qiu Sheng ordered without turning his head back.
Zhou Yi did as he was told and slowly retreated about ten meters back. He looked at Wu Tie casting the spell from a distance.
Qiu Sheng first sat cross-legged on the ground. Both of his hands formed a very strange seal in front of his chest. Then, he began to silently chant an incantation.
After chanting a series of incantations, he suddenly waved his hands in the air.
A majestic energy immediately shot out from his hand and landed about twenty meters in front of him.
Zhou Yi thought he had finished. Just as he wanted to take a step forward, the ground suddenly trembled.
A crack that was as thick as an arm suddenly appeared on the ground where the energy landed. Following which, the crack became wider and wider, as though it had reached a bottomless abyss below the ground.
Zhou Yi wanted to stop them, but then he saw something slowly rising up from the abyss.
"This … this is actually a Suan Ni?"
Moments later, Zhou Yi clearly saw what had risen up from the ground. It was a Suan Ni stone sculpture that was over five meters in length and width.
Legend has it that nine sons of dragons do not become dragons.
This Suan Ni is the fifth of the nine sons, its appearance is very similar to a lion, and its life is happy and quiet, so it always squats down, and it also loves fireworks.
Seeing this sculpture, Zhou Yi suddenly remembered what kind of array this Jiang City array was. It was the Nine Dragons Confinement Beast Formation.
No wonder it required nine talismans. It was because there were nine stone sculptures in nine different locations that this brother had been able to use to suppress it. In addition to maintaining his Fa Li, there was nowhere for Heaven Desolate to escape.
Thinking about this, Zhou Yi subconsciously mumbled, "Then the ninth statue is that Bibi statue in the city?"
On the square in the center of the Jiang City, there was a tortoise carrying a stone on its back. However, because it was too old, the tortoise's original appearance could no longer be seen clearly.
No wonder Qiu Sheng said that it was fine if he didn't want the ninth token.
A few minutes later, the ground stopped shaking and the stone sculpture finally appeared on the ground.
Qiu Sheng's hands slammed onto the ground and his body actually flew straight up before landing slowly in front of the Suan Ni statue.
After landing on the ground, Qiu Sheng wasn't in a hurry to place the keepsake on it. Instead, he stretched out his hand and gently caressed the Suan Ni statue. He looked like an old friend that he hadn't seen for many years.
Zhou Yi wanted to say something, but seeing Qiu Sheng like this, he suppressed the words that were already on the tip of his tongue.
A few minutes later, Qiu Sheng slightly moved his hand and an incense burner appeared in his hand.
At this moment, Zhou Yi also finally saw clearly that there was an empty spot at the foot of the Suan Ni. That spot was just big enough to fit the incense burner.
Ka-cha! *
After a crisp sound, Qiu Sheng pressed the incense burner inside.
The instant the incense burner was placed, the entire ground began to shake violently.
Following that, Zhou Yi felt an ancient and archaic charm coming from under the Suan Ni's feet.
"Hahaha …" Qiu Sheng suddenly laughed maniacally with his head raised. After laughing for about ten seconds, he suddenly turned around and looked at Zhou Yi: "Done, let's go to the next location!"
Zhou Yi looked at the shaking ground that gradually stopped and squinted his eyes. Then, he turned around and followed behind Qiu Sheng.
"The ninth Formation Eye is located on the main street of the Jiang City, right?"
After they got in the car, Zhou Yi said lightly.
Hearing this, Qiu Sheng once again laughed wildly: "Looks like you really aren't an ordinary person. Just by looking at the first keepsake, you've already guessed the origins of this formation. Not bad, not bad!"
However, Zhou Yi did not laugh. Since he already guessed the composition of the formation, he had to prepare. After the formation opens, he had to think of a way to get what he wanted.
In the following time, Qiu Sheng brought Zhou Yi to a few other places to place the keepsake.
Two hours later, the two of them finally arrived at the eighth location.
As long as the last talisman was placed onto it, the entire formation would instantly activate.
Qiu Sheng followed his previous appearance and used the summoning technique. However, the last statue did not appear.
"What's wrong?"
Zhou Yi was also astonished. Could it be that the statue had been buried underground for too long and was broken?
Qiu Sheng shook his head and the two slowly looked at the cracked ground.
Whoosh!
Just as the two of them reached the front, a streak of black smoke shot out from beneath the ground.
The two of them hurriedly retreated. As they retreated, Zhou Yi laid a defensive formation in front of them.
But after the two of them retreated about two to three meters, the black smoke slowly disappeared.
"What is it?" Qiu Sheng turned around and looked at Zhou Yi.
Zhou Yi didn't see what was inside, but he could be sure that it wasn't small.
"Could it be …"
"Impossible! The great array has not been opened yet, it's impossible for him to come out!"
Before Zhou Yi could finish his words, Qiu Sheng spoke with a gloomy expression.
As the sound of his voice faded, the ground began to tremble violently once again. The two of them hurriedly looked towards the crack, only to see that the last statue had slowly floated up.
"The last keepsake will be placed and the formation will be completely activated. Are you ready?"
Qiu Sheng turned his head slowly and smiled evilly.2
When Zhou Yi saw his current appearance, it was as if he had become a completely different person. However, he still nodded slightly.
Then, Qiu Sheng gently placed the token in his hand on the sculpture's gap.
Rumble rumble rumble!
As the keepsake was placed, a loud rumbling sound was immediately emitted from the sky. The entire Jiang City City immediately sank into a state of panic …
