I Just Won’t Play by the Book

It was obvious that Yutou had suffered from a lot of magic weapons.

So when he heard that Jiang Beiran was sure that he could create a treasure for him, he was very excited, and he even forgot about preparing to continue to win over him.

"Friend, what kind of magic weapon are you planning to make for me?"

Jiang Beiran looked at Tingtao and replied: "It naturally depends on what kind of magic weapon the chief needs. If the chief lacks defensive means, then I will refine a defensive magic weapon for you. If the chief lacks offensive means , then I will..."

"I need a defensive magic weapon."

Without waiting for Jiang Beiran to finish speaking, Yutuo made a choice directly.

This answer really surprised Jiang Beiran. He always thought that the skin of alien animals was thick and fleshy, and the resilience was extremely strong, and he could resist all the attacks of cultivators with his physical body.

But now, judging from the reaction of Yutu, even for a top-level alien beast like it, it would still be quite painful to use the flesh to resist the attack of Xuansheng.

"Okay." Jiang Beiran nodded, "but most of the defensive magic weapons should not have much effect on the chief. After all, you can fight against the top powerhouses among human beings, if not the top defensive magic weapons, I'm afraid it won't work at all."

Jiang Beiran finished thinking for a moment, then continued: "How about this, I'll give you two options for the chief. First, I will help the chief to build a high-quality defensive Noble Phantasm. Although it can't completely block the attacks of the top human beings, it can. Absorb part of it, and secondly, I will do my best to help the chief to build the best defensive magic weapon, but the material must be provided by the chief, and I need to charge the production fee, of course, it will be much cheaper for you."

"I want the best."

Yutuo chose the second one without thinking.

"Okay, that's the case, then as soon as I go back, I will immediately start helping the chief design magic weapons."

"What is design?"

"It's just to draw a picture according to your request, Chief..."

Jiang Beiran thought about it for a while, and it is impossible to understand the two words sketches, let alone design drawings.

After thinking about it, Jiang Beiran simply said directly: "The chief will naturally know when he goes back."

"Okay." After he finished speaking, he looked into the distance and said, "Since the holy light has disappeared, let's go to the next place to visit."

'Okay, quite calm. ’

Jiang Beiran thought he would definitely want to go back impatiently, but he didn't expect that he was still thinking about being a "tour guide" for himself.

This can't help but make Jiang Beiran feel that it is quite reliable.

It took another half a day for Jiang Beiran to walk around the entire site behind Yutu, and found that there are no such magical existences as holy springs in the Four Holy Lands.

Most places still don't have that many visions.

Moreover, compared with the human chassis, the Four Holy Lands are actually relatively barren. Except for the place where the tribe was established, there are not many natural materials and treasures to be harvested in other places. Looking around, it is red soil or red soil .

But because there are no competitors here, Jiang Beiran feels that this place is better than the human beings outside.

At the very least, he can pick whatever he wants, and he doesn't need to worry about jumping options at all.

Back in the tribe, the alien beasts in the tribe looked at Jiang Beiran with a lot of friendliness at this moment, and at the same time, they also brought eight points of greed in this friendliness.

The meal they had yesterday was so comforting.

It was simply the best meal they had ever eaten since they were born, so now they are all thinking about this sudden human being, hoping that he can make another meal for them to eat beautifully.

After nodding towards them, Jiang Beiran thought that Tingtao would bring him back to the basement, but he never wanted to come to a palace.

"This is the sanctuary, and the last place I want to show you around." Yutao stopped and said to Jiang Beiran.

"Sanctuary... Could it be said that it is a place that contains the spirits of the Four Saints?"

"I don't know if there is any spirit of the Four Sages, but this is indeed the place where one of the Four Sages once lived.

It was the former residence...

‘By the way, shouldn’t this kind of place be a forbidden place that no one but the chief can enter? Is it really okay to bring me here so soon? ’

Thinking about this question, Jiang Beiran followed Yingtu into the palace.

'It has an inner taste...'

The moment he entered the palace, Jiang Beiran saw all kinds of murals, the content seemed to be some kind of sacrifice, and it looked bloody.

In addition to the murals, there are various skeletons piled up in many corners of the palace. It is unknown whether they were placed here as trophies or sacrifices.

'But... it's still too common. ’

Jiang Beiran originally thought that this palace was a sanctuary, not to mention that it was filled with all kinds of magic weapons, at least the aura was far more abundant than the outside, right?

But no, everything in this palace is very old, but it is also very ordinary.

It doesn't look like a powerful alien lived there at all.

When Jiang Beiran was puzzled, Yutao was still walking forward on his own, and he didn't seem to intend to be an "explainer".

After walking like this for a while, Jiang Beiran followed Tingtu to the largest hall in the palace.

There are also a lot of murals here, just like the outside. The paintings seem to be a war, not between alien beasts and humans, but the internal contradictions of alien beasts themselves.

Judging from the frescoes, the war seems to have been fought in darkness, and quite a few alien beasts died.

"My friend, the Holy Land was originally not allowed outsiders to step in, but I need your help, and I also trust you very much."

"Chief, please speak."

After speaking, he stomped his feet and said, "This is the place where the Four Sages really live, but I have thought of various ways, but I still can't get down."

'Do you all love digging holes so much? ’

"Can't go down?" Jiang Beiran glanced at the floor suspiciously.

"Yes." Yasu nodded, "No matter how I attack, I can't penetrate this layer of ground."

"Then how do you know that below is where the Four Sages really live."

'It's the secret the last chief told me. "

'It's been passed down from generation to generation... What a secret. ''

In his heart, Jiang Beiran first tried to use his mental power to detect the situation in the underground of the villa.

However, as soon as he controlled his mental power and was about to probe down, he suddenly felt a familiar invisible force blocking him.

'Formation? ’

Jiang Beiran is a little stunned, and Jiang Beiran would not feel strange that there is a formation in an ancient place, but this is the site of alien beasts...

‘Could it be that a human powerhouse came here a long time ago and sealed something underground? ’

Putting away his mental power, Jiang Beiran looked at Tingtuo and asked, "The chief wants me to help you open the passage to the basement?"

"Yes." Yutu nodded, "As long as a friend can help me with this, you can raise any conditions."

"Okay, since it's the chief's request, I naturally have no reason to shirk. Please give me some time. I need to find out what's blocking the way to the basement."

Hearing that Jiang Beiran really seemed to have a solution, Yutao couldn't help shaking his long tail twice and said, "My friend is really good, so I'll leave it to you."

"I'm just trying. It's better for the chief not to expect too much from me."

"I believe you can do it, my friend."

"Then I'll try my best, and I'll ask you to retreat to the door first, Chief."

After hearing this, Tiao Tu did not hesitate at all, and walked directly to the entrance of the hall, staring at Jiang Beiran with a pair of eyes, looking forward to what kind of magical skills this friend can show.

After roughly observing the surrounding arrangement, Jiang Beiran took out the eight-inch, twelve-gold and twenty-ninth-layer Xuankong flying star disk from the Qiankun ring and walked to the center of the hall.

To break the formation, of course, we must first determine what formation stopped him.

'Nine layers of heaven, wearing cloud shoes, squatting up, Bu Zhili... um! ? ’

Just when Jiang Beiran stepped out of the sky, he found that the pointer in the flying star disk in his hand was spinning at an extremely fast speed, and he had no intention of stopping at all.

'Okay... it finally smells like a big demon lived there. ’

The function of the compass is to detect the surrounding aura, and then find a specific direction or array node through the rotation of the pointer.

But now the pointer is completely messed up, which means that the aura here is also extremely messy.

'Evil nature. ’

With a sigh in his heart, Jiang Beiran put away the compass and took out the wishful lottery from the Qiankun ring.

'Ruyi, Ruyi, as I wish. ’

"Crack, click."

After shaking the wishful lottery tube twice, a silver lottery fell out. Jiang Beiran grabbed it and waved it violently, and saw it turned into a black mist and quickly dispersed.

Seeing this, Yutuo wanted to stop it, but in order to crack the secrets of the underground, he still endured it.

When the black clouds filled the entire hall, Jiang Beiran took out eighteen purple talismans, seven silver talismans and two gold talismans from the Qiankun Ring.

Putting a golden talisman on his lips, Jiang Beiran recited in his heart.

'There are three wonders in the sky, and six rituals in the earth. ’

'The anger is in all directions, strangely rising,'

'Black cloud terracotta, rubble mound. ’

'Fang Huang Baibu, open your eyes to see it! ’

In an instant, the golden talisman in Jiang Beiran's mouth burst into a dazzling light and flew into the black cloud.

Then Jiang Beiran raised his hand, eighteen purple talismans, seven silver talismans and one golden talisman followed, and flew into the black cloud together.

Jiang Beiran used the wishful lottery to turn into a cloud of ink, which is a magic weapon to assist the viewing technique.

When the compass positioning method fails, this is Jiang Beiran's backup spell.

It is more complicated than the compass positioning method, but it is better than not relying on the sky for food, whether the aura is chaotic, or the yin is prosperous and the yang is declining.

Anyway, no environmental factors can affect its "reading array".

After about a cup of tea, the black mist gradually dissipated, but every corner of the room left its traces, like cracks, covering the entire hall.

To Jiang Beiran's surprise, the twenty-seven talisman papers that were released would still be hovering in the air, like headless flies.

'This……'

Jiang Beiran paused for a while. It stands to reason that these twenty-seven talisman papers will mark the nodes, veins and eyes of the formation in this hall.

But now the twenty-seven talisman papers have all lost their direction, which means that they can't tell what kind of formation this is.

There is only one reason for this to happen.

That is, Jiang Beiran's Taoism is not as high as that of those who set up the formation.

After smacking his mouth, Jiang Beiran raised his right hand and called, and the twenty-seven talisman papers flew back into his hands.

Putting away the talisman paper, Jiang Beiran looked around and observed the cracks that were like black smoke.

all these are

The traces left by the formation when running, the talisman should rely on them to locate the formation eyes, nodes and veins.

But now that the traces have been re-engraved, the talisman paper has still lost its direction, which means that this great formation has gone beyond Jiang Beiran's cognition.

'It won't be another ancient formation...'

When the compass could not be positioned and the spectator technique could not be used, Jiang Beiran had no choice.

This formation is obviously "out of line", and with his current ability, it may be difficult to crack.

"How about it, can you untie it?"

Seeing Jiang Beiran didn't move for a long time, Ying Tuo came in and asked.

Jiang Beiran suddenly felt a little emotional when he glanced at the scorpion walking towards him.

'That's right, this is a formation that even an eighth-order alien beast can't break open with violence, so naturally it can't be rationalized. ’

Bowing his hands towards Tiaotu, Jiang Beiran said, "It should be an ancient formation that seals the passage. It's quite tricky. I'm afraid it will take me a while to unlock it."

Although it is basically impossible for Jiang Beiran to crack this formation at this stage, but the character design cannot be lost, and it is definitely not acceptable to directly say that he cannot break it.

Hearing that Jiang Beiran really has a way to break it, he immediately said, "It's okay, you can solve it slowly, I can wait."

After listening, Jiang Beiran shook his head and said: "The ancient formation is full of wisdom, and it is a very labor-intensive thing to decipher it, but I still have other important things to do now, when I am free, I will come to be the chief. crack it."

Yutu became anxious when he heard it, "My friend has something important to do, I'll do it for you."

‘I want to unify the entire Xuanlong Continent, are you here? ’

Shaking his head, Jiang Beiran replied: "I'm afraid the chief can't help me with what I want to do, so please don't worry. In addition, cracking this ancient magic formation requires a lot of preparations, and these all take time."

"What kind of preparation do you need? I'll help you find it." Yu Tuo was very positive.

'Hey, what I want is your words. ’

Anyway, it's impossible for Yutao to understand the formation technique, so why don't you decide what to prepare for?

However, Jiang Beiran still doesn't have the confidence to break through this big formation, so it's not good for the lion to open up, otherwise, if you get something, it won't be very good if you don't help others.

So Jiang Beiran cupped his hands again and said, "Since the chief has the heart, please wait for me a little longer. When the time comes, naturally there are many things that the chief needs to help."

"It's... well."

Although Yutu didn't want to wait any longer, there was nothing he could do. After waiting for so long, he finally had to wait for someone who had a way to do it, and he could only ignore what others said.

Jiang Beiran couldn't help laughing at the extremely reluctant expression on Yingtuo's face.

‘After all, alien beasts are alien beasts, and they are still much easier to handle than humans. ’
