Chapter 215: Tongtian Tower (10)

  No wonder Yu Ruo was so surprised. Cloud Dreamer would probably also be amazed by this linked formation and applaud, unable to help but praise it!

  The so-called linked array is a combination of several arrays that complement each other, arranged in a very deliberate and complex way to form a ring-in-ring, array-after-array linked array.

  The power of the linked array is not a simple superposition of several arrays, but often in each set of arrays, it contains some powerfulness of other arrays. Under the mutual promotion of several arrays, the power of the linked array is very strong.

  In addition, it is extremely difficult to find weaknesses in a linked formation, making it hard to break through one by one.

  The difficulty of setting up a linked array is extremely high, and it's hard to grasp. Even the rumored Array Masters can hardly master one or two methods of setting up linked arrays, and almost all of them directly copy the methods of their predecessors.

  After all, it is necessary to make multiple formations cooperate and complement each other's strengths and weaknesses, with many details to consider, often requiring decades or even centuries of hard thinking to grasp some of the principles.

  "This is the Seven-colored Cloud Sea Formation, a famous forbidden formation from ancient times that can cover an extremely wide range. Many sects use this formation as their mountain-protecting formation." Yu Rou noticed the changes in the formation and said: "Although the Seven-colored Cloud Sea Formation here covers a smaller area, its power has not decreased at all. This formation excels in defensive strength, even if it's a Nascent Soul stage expert who attacks, they would find it difficult to forcefully break through this formation within twelve hours."

  "What's more, since this is a linked array, it's likely that there are still third and fourth layers of arrays hidden within, making the difficulty of cracking it even greater!" You Ruo said, her expression becoming increasingly solemn, her eyebrows furrowed.

  "It seems that this test is mostly about the way of formation. With your understanding, it's still said to be so, I'm afraid the difficulty of this test is too great, and there are no cultivators who can pass through!" Zhao Di shook his head helplessly, he himself had very little experience in formations, was a complete outsider, after listening to You Ruo's introduction, felt that hope was slim.

  Yu Ruo thought for a while, then said: "I'll try my best to find the weak point of this linked array. If I can find it and combine it with the puppet's powerful attack, maybe we can break through within 12 hours. However, if there are other arrays to be broken, it will definitely not be possible."

  Zhao nodded and encouraged, "You do your best, anyway, our trip has gained a lot, not being able to find the method to hand over to Qianji Gate was expected, it's already very lucky to have come this far!"

  Next, You Ruo held the crystal ball to explore all parts of the formation, while You Lan, Bing Feng Jiao and a group of puppets were also busy, launching attacks on various parts of the formation to see if they could find any abnormalities.

  An hour later, still nothing was gained, and in terms of the strong defensive power of the Seven Color Cloud Sea Formation, these attacks did not cause any substantial damage.

  Zhao Di suddenly said, "Meng Li mentioned before he died that all defensive arrays are extremely particular about the transformation of spiritual energy. They can almost completely transfer the attacks they receive to the entire array, evenly bearing the attack. Some ingenious arrays even have the possibility of transforming part of the attacking power into the array's own spiritual energy, not only weakening the attack but also making it more stable."

  "The transformation of spiritual energy is crucial, and my Hunyuan Jue is precisely the conversion of balanced five-element spiritual energy into Hunyuan energy. The Hunyuan Five Elements Grand Array can also achieve this point. If you say, if we set up a Hunyuan Five Elements array here to interfere with the spiritual energy transformation of this array method, will it reveal a flaw in this linked array?"

  "Is the master saying that he can use the Hunyuan Five Elements Formation to break through formations?" Yu Rou heard this and thought for a moment, then said with a joyful expression: "The power of Hunyuan originates from the spiritual energy of the five elements, but it is also different from the spiritual energy of the five elements. The master can even rely on the magical Hunyuan technique to transform the power of Hunyuan into any of the five elemental spiritual energies, which is something that other formations fundamentally cannot do."

  "If this method is used to monitor the changes in the spiritual power of the formation, it's a very sensitive means!" Youlan also guessed the intentions of the two.

  "Not bad, let's give it a try!" Zhao Di said.

  Without waiting for Zhao's orders, the two women immediately began to set up the Hunyuan Wu Xing Great Array. This great array was like a flower that had cost countless heart and blood, and had long been familiar with it. The flag method plate also had early preparations, and in just half an hour, the plum blossom-shaped Hunyuan Wu Xing Great Array was set up.

  After the twenty-five high-grade spirit stones were laid out, Zhao Di used the Hunyuan Divine Light to activate the Hunyuan Five Elements Great Array and guided the purple light emitted by the array's activation to explore all around. Wherever the purple light reached, the five elements' spiritual energy transformed into Hunyuan energy, which was the mighty aspect of the Hunyuan Five Elements Great Array.

  The spiritual power supply of the Seven-colored Cloud Sea Formation was affected by the mixed yuan force, resulting in some deviations. However, this subtle change did not escape You Ruo's monitoring, and soon she found two weaknesses in this formation method.

  Then You Ruo also set up a formation here, continuing to use the idea of breaking the formation with the formation, and with the help of many puppets, the very troublesome Seven-colored Cloud Sea Formation was finally broken.

  After spending ten hours on this level, Zhao Di finally broke through the linked triple array with the help of You Ruo and a group of puppets.

  "You've done a great job this time, You Ruo! If you weren't so skilled in array techniques, we wouldn't have been able to get past this level no matter what!" Zhao Di exclaimed, praising You Ruo a few sentences after the array was broken and the magnificent light ladder was revealed.

  "That was the master's good luck, as this last layer of formation happened to be the Inverted Five Elements Formation. This formation has extremely strong power in the transformation and mutual restraint of the five elements' spiritual energy, with super-strong defensive capabilities, but it just so happens to be completely restrained by the Chaotic Force. If not for this, the speed of breaking the formation would not have increased greatly, otherwise it would not have been possible to break three formations within twelve hours." Yu Rou was still marveling at the profundity of the linked triple formation, and said lightly: "The way of formations is vast and profound, and I only understand a little bit of its surface! The person who set up this linked triple formation has an attainment in formations that surpasses mine by more than a hundred times!"

  "Meng Li, if it weren't for the array method books you left behind, I wouldn't have been able to pass this level today. Is it that you're protecting me from the underworld?" Zhao Di gazed at the light ladder leading to the seventh floor, with a multitude of thoughts in his heart.

  Zhao Di and Er Nu put away the magic array, puppet and other objects, habitually wore a black mourning hat with their surname on it, then stepped onto the light ladder with excitement.

  As he stepped onto the last step of the Light Ladder, a flash of light appeared and he found himself in the great hall on the seventh floor of the Tower of Heaven.

  "Someone!" Zhao Di immediately sensed the difference in the seventh layer and with a thought, Hunyuan's energy protected his entire body.

  "It's actually a mid-stage Qi Condensation cultivator!" A man's voice rang out, his tone not hiding his surprise at all. "I didn't expect my opponent to have such a low level of cultivation!"

  "Huan Wuxing!" Zhao Di appeared on the seventh floor, and at the first moment, he discovered this handsome young man sitting quietly with his eyes closed, who was Huan Wuxing, the number one person under Yuan Ying more than a hundred years ago!

  At the same time, with a sweep of his divine eyes, he had a clear understanding of the situation in the seventh layer of the Grand Hall.

  This grand hall is completely different from the previous six layers, and surprisingly, there are no restrictions on air or spiritual awareness. It's only about 300-400 meters wide, with white jade walls all around, without any arched doors. On the right end of the hall, there are three jade grids, each several feet in size. Two of them have restrictive spirit lights protecting them, while the third one is empty and bare.

  On the left end of the Jade Wall in the Grand Hall, there are four ancient characters "Dú Yī Wú èr" (Unparalleled) with dragon and phoenix patterns, the meaning is unclear. Except for this, the Grand Hall is empty.

  When he swept his gaze over the three jade compartments, Zhao Di's eyes flashed with a hint of fervor. Without a doubt, these were the three treasures that Qianji Zi valued the most, and one of them might have already been taken by the young man in front of him!

  If it weren't for the young man being here, Zhao Di would have probably rushed over long ago and eagerly used the Tongtian Order to take out the treasure.

  "What's your name? You've actually reached the seventh floor of Tongtian Tower with just mid-Dan stage cultivation, you're no ordinary person!" The young man opened his eyes and glanced at Zhao Di, who was wearing a bamboo hat, with an arrogant expression.

  Zhao Di said in a calm tone: "Indeed, I am just an unknown minor official. Since the Young Master has already obtained the precious treasure, why hasn't he left yet?"

  "Hmph!" Huan sneered coldly, his voice laced with a hint of eeriness. "It's not that I don't want to leave, but take a look at the Heaven-Transcending Token in your hand - it has completely lost its transmission effect."

  "It's true! There are no other arches here, so how can we leave the Tower of Heaven?" Zhao Di was secretly shocked. The golden light points on the Heavenly Command had disappeared when he entered this seventh layer, and Zhao Di, who had always kept a thread of divine sense on this object, had already noticed this matter. Now, hearing the other party's words, his heart suddenly felt bad. He even foresaw that things might be more terrible than not being able to use the Heavenly Command to leave the Tower of Heaven.

  Hearing the hint of panic in Zhao Di's words, Huan Wuxin let out a cold hum and said lightly: "This isn't urgent, don't you want to take a look first at what kind of treasures are hidden in this seventh layer's great hall?"

  "This is of great interest to me, but I'm afraid Master Phantom won't give me this opportunity! What kind of treasure is hidden within, only Master Phantom would know!" Zhao glanced at the empty jade grid, where a faint spiritual energy fluctuation still lingered.

  "Haha, well said. This young master won't give you the chance to get the treasure. However, I can reveal a thing or two - the value of this treasure is so high that it would drive the entire cultivation world crazy! Unfortunately, you don't have the opportunity to possess it!"

  Yuwu's tone turned cold, his eyes scanning the four ancient characters on the jade wall as he said in a chilly voice: "One and only one. If we want to get out of here, I'm afraid that between us two, only one can stay!"

  Zhao Di let out a light sigh, and the surname Su took off his bamboo hat and put it into the storage ring. He had also guessed the meaning of these four ancient characters.

  In his heart, he even thought of the possibility of falling here!
