277 The Primordial Array
Gu Mingzhou had an ominous premonition. He hurriedly turned around to look and even called out Jing Wudao’s name.
However, all he got in response was silence. There was not even a single echo.
“Stop looking. We are in the middle of the primordial array.” Master Qin finally said.
The so-called ‘primordial array’ referred to the use of formation techniques to imprison heaven and earth.
“So, the true purpose of the primordial array is not to protect the opportunities but to imprison this small world? Gu Mingzhou said in surprise.
Before they came in, Jing Wudao and Shangguan Fei had discussed the reason for the storage space of the huge Daoist’s stone statue. It was the carrier of space.
And all the opportunities they were looking for should be in another space.
If the primordial array was really used to imprison space like what Master Qin said, then the creator of the primordial array must have set up this place to imprison this space.
As soon as Gu Mingzhou finished speaking, Master Qin started to praise him.
“Not bad! The person who created this cave abode may have discovered the space, but it was extremely difficult for him to keep it for his own use. That’s why he created the primordial array! It’s also called a useless formation!” Master Qin explained.
“A useless formation? I can understand why it’s called the world’s number one secret formation, but why is it called a useless formation?” Gu Mingzhou asked in confusion.
“The primordial array can imprison heaven and earth and create space, but it can only imprison space. Even if it has lived for tens of millions of years, it can’t imprison heaven and earth.” Master Qin explained in detail as if he was living history.
The main purpose of the formation was to imprison space.
As for the others, the illusion was not as good as the illusion arrays.
Its defense was not as good as the sect protection array, and its attack was not as good as the thousand array.
Furthermore, the conditions to set up the formation were extremely harsh. Wasn’t it just a useless formation?
“That’s true.” Gu Mingzhou thought for a while and said.
According to what Master Qin said, the primordial array was indeed a useless formation.
After all, the person created it to imprison that elusive space.
However, since ancient times, almost no one had been able to discover space. Many people didn’t even know what a different space was.
In this way, the primordial array would lose its function and become a useless formation.
“Since this primordial array can’t trap the enemy, why are Liu Youcheng and the others missing?” after understanding where they were, Gu Mingzhou thought of the others who had disappeared.
“That’s even simpler. Although the primordial array is useless, it still has one strong point from all other formations. Whether it’s defense, attack, imprisonment, or other functions, it has all of them.” Master Qin explained in detail as if he knew the primordial array very well.
Therefore, it was evident this primordial array had activated its imprisonment technique.
Everyone was surrounded by a thick white fog blocking their vision, and they could not find each other.
The white mist obscured his vision but could not block one spiritual sense.
As long as Gu Mingzhou spread out his spiritual sense to investigate, he could quickly discover the others.
“It can be done like this?” Gu Mingzhou was very curious.
He immediately spread out his spiritual sense.
Sure enough, he found Shangguan Fei, Liu Youcheng, He Youliang, Wei Lin, and the Wu Ji patriarch not far away from him.
It was evident that they knew the secret of the primordial array.
Otherwise, they would not have gathered together so quickly.
“Hey, why can’t I sense Brother Wudao’s aura?” Gu Mingzhou asked with a frown.
Even when he sent out his greatest spiritual sense to cover a radius of a hundred miles, he still couldn’t find Jing Wudao’s aura. This made him very depressed.
“That means he didn’t come in.” Master Qin said with some disdain.
“He didn’t come in? That’s impossible.” Gu Mingzhou did not believe it.
However, just as he finished speaking, a red shadow suddenly flew over and landed beside Gu Mingzhou.
“Brother Wudao!”
“I’m sorry, I came in a little late.” Jing Wudao saw Gu Mingzhou’s surprised expression and immediately smiled shyly. He apologized.
“You really didn’t come in? Master Qin was right.” Gu Mingzhou was a little surprised. He had thought that Master Qin was joking. He didn’t expect Jing Wudao to really not enter.
“What do you mean by I was right? This is common sense. Didn’t I tell you that the primordial array only has this function? How could it lose a person?” Master Qin said disdainfully, his words full of disdain for Gu Mingzhou.
“So this is the primordial array.” Jing Wudao stared at Master Qin with interest for a long time. A smile appeared on his face, and then he retracted his gaze.
“En, Brother Wudao, you know about it?” Gu Mingzhou asked in return.
“I’ve indeed heard of it before, but I don’t really understand it.” As Jing Wudao answered, his gaze shifted to the purple figure on Gu Mingzhou’s shoulder.
“Master Qin! How do you know so much?” Gu Mingzhou asked, a little confused.
“Maybe it’s natural. After all, I’m not an ordinary person. I’m taking a break. Don’t bother me if there’s nothing else!” Master Qin seemed to be really tired. He lazily leaned on Gu Mingzhou’s shoulder and started to rest.
Gu Mingzhou shook his head helplessly. This Master Qin was still as funny as ever.
He stopped talking and explored the way with his spiritual senses, quickly approaching Shangguan Fei and the others.
Jing Wudao also followed behind Gu Mingzhou.
In Gu Mingzhou’s spiritual sense, they had not moved since they had discovered the location of Shangguan Fei and the others.
When Gu Mingzhou arrived, he realized there were two tightly shut bronze doors at the place where the four of them had gathered. They stood in the middle of the white fog.
There were two huge doors more than a hundred meters tall. They were utterly cast in bronze and emitted a faint green light. Amid the white mist, they were particularly eye-catching, even mysterious…
The bronze door gave Gu Mingzhou a mysterious feeling.
The more he looked, the more mysterious it became.
It was as if there was something was clearly within reach, but when you reached out to grab it, you couldn’t.
It was mysterious and heart-wrenching!
In the middle of the closed bronze door was a gilded “nine” in the shape of a bulge.
Something seemed to be missing from the nine words.
There were precisely nine palm-sized grooves that covered the entire nine characters.
Each groove emitted a faint white light, which corresponded with the green light of the door.
“Why are you so late?” Wu Ji’s patriarch said unhappily.
Gu Mingzhou and Jing Wudao had just walked over when they immediately attracted everyone’s attention.
“Little friend, we’re not like you. You’ve already been here once. It’s already not bad that you were able to find us so quickly!” He Youliang immediately retorted.
Wu Ji patriarch was speechless and turned around angrily.
Gu Mingzhou could not help but feel puzzled.
He was not doubtful that Wu Ji patriarch was targeting him but because Wu Ji patriarch seemed to be afraid of He Youliang.
You have to know that when Wu Ji patriarch first attacked the seven devil halls, he fought against He Youliang alone.
It seemed like there was still a feud between Wu Ji sect’s patriarch and He Youliang.
With such a relationship, even if they reconciled, Wu Ji patriarch should not be afraid of He Youliang.
They weren’t going against each other, but they were still unforgiving.
It seemed like He Youliang was holding something against Wu Ji sect’s patriarch, so Wu Ji sect’s patriarch dared not say anything.
If that was the case, things would become even more interesting.
