Chapter 406: Fighting with Heaven (Part 2)
"What is this?" Beth stared at the scene in front of him, and reached out to touch the fluorescent emitted by the plants beside him. His soul could use this power to restore his previous ability, but she could not really feel the existence of this power, as if it were clouds and mist.
"It is the wood spirit essence that has accumulated for thousands of years." Xu Changqing looked around, sighed regretfully, and said, "It's a pity that these wood spirit essences have been integrated with all things on this earth through a formation. Unless the entire earth is destroyed, the wood spirit energy is equivalent to a false sense.
Hearing Xu Changqing's words, Beth couldn't help but feel regretful on her face. She felt that although this power might not be able to completely solve her problem, it could slow down and even stop her soul from being exhausted. Now these powers can only be seen and not used, which naturally makes her feel unwilling. However, she did not understand that Xu Changqing had not completely told the truth. Although this wood spirit essence has been integrated with all things on the earth, it is always part of a formation map. As long as the formation heart of the formation map can be found, there is a chance to drain the wood spirit energy.
The reason why Xu Changqing did not tell Beth all the truth was naturally his consideration. Since entering this primitive jungle, he had clearly felt the existence of this array map, and the abnormality appeared from the clone of the Zhenwu Demon Sword. He found that this array map could actually isolate the influence of the heavenly way. At the same time, he also found that this array map also acts as a warning. In the range of the array map, some abnormal array forces will appear irregularly. As long as he comes into contact with this array force, his body will be marked and known by the people who control the array. Therefore, Xu Changqing will change directions from time to time while walking to avoid the array map.
Because the formation map in front of him could block the influence of the heavenly way, Xu Changqing was looking forward to it. While walking, he was also carefully observing the movement of the entire formation. Although this formation map was not the same as the formation of China, it was still unable to escape from the spiritual energy such as the five elements of heaven and earth. With Xu Changqing's understanding of the fundamental formation method, he quickly mastered the basic structure and operation method of the formation map in front of him. However, while seeing through the formation method in front of him, the essence of wood spirit has accumulated thousands of years in the formation. He also felt that the strange spiritual energy in the jungle that was useful for his cultivation might have some relationship with the wood spirit energy, so he concealed some facts from Beth.
The temple where the three of them are now is actually one of the many array nodes in the entire array map. The reason why Xu Changqing decided to stay here is not only because he did not want to rush through the night storm, but more because he wanted to use his powerful divine thoughts to explore the destination surrounded by strange spiritual energy that he was going to through this array node.
Just now, Xu Changqing tentatively cast a spell to capture a ball of wood spirit essence from the node of the formation body of the temple. Although this ball of wood spirit essence cannot be absorbed by itself, it can be used as a medium to let people see the entire jungle array map, which saves him from the trouble of explanation. This temptation also allowed Xu Changqing to see the bottom line of the jungle array map being stimulated, so he ordered Long Jinbao, who was quietly making fire, "Jinbao, don't let someone disturb me."
"Yes, Master." Long Jinbao didn't ask much. He piled the dry firewood next to the just-lit fire, turned around and stood beside Xu Changqing like a statue, looking around vigilantly, even Beth on the side was his object of vigilance.
Seeing Long Jinbao like this, Xu Changqing nodded with satisfaction, then leaned on the wall of the temple that was coming out, closed his eyes slightly, and seemed to be asleep. The trees around him that had just been opened extended towards Xu Changqing like tentacles, and soon it was completely covered in these jungle plants, which was integrated with the surrounding environment. There was no sign of a living person under these vines rooted on the ground.
After immersing the divine thoughts into the entire jungle array map, Xu Changqing felt that he had entered a world full of infinite vitality. The vitality of various living creatures gathered here, forming a group of air masses that were somewhat similar to the qi of life and creation. The jungle array map was a channel connecting each air mass, forming a world of vitality that could hardly feel the edge.
Xu Changqing's divine thoughts just entered the vitality world transformed into the jungle array map and turned into the eight-treasure glazed ginseng fruit tree clone. The plants containing the wood spirit energy around them gathered like rivers flowing into the sea. Although Xu Changqing could not absorb the plants' vitality, he could feel everything at its root through the plants' vitality, as if he had already transformed into that plant. At this moment, he transformed from a sneak in to a hidden jungle master, and everything that happened in the jungle was collected by him. Through these plants, he now found that seven or eight foreign expedition teams were trapped in this rainforest, two of which were rushing towards the ruins of the temple, and Ji Jieren had all been marked by the jungle array map.
At this time, Xu Changqing suddenly felt that the two teams leaning towards the temple ruins were not only marked by the power of the formation map, but also a force similar to divine thoughts attached, and this force seemed to be monitoring the explorers. Xu Changqing did not alarm the surveillance force, but just waited quietly for it to react. Although he could find the source of the jungle formation map, it would take some energy and time. Now, it would be much easier to have a ready-made guide.
Under Xu Changqing's observation, this surveillance force did not seem to want the two teams of explorers to get close to the temple ruins, constantly controlling the surrounding plants through the jungle array map, creating obstacles on their way. However, the two teams of explorers who seem to have some special forces can always find the direction to the temple ruins after deviating from the road. As the two teams of people get closer to the temple ruins, the surveillance force seems to have lost patience and escaped from these people. They retreated along the jungle array map-shaped passage toward the depths of the jungle.
Xu Changqing's divine consciousness also disappeared from his incarnation, restoring nothingness, silent and dangerous situations, and led it to explore deeper. After passing some protective traps inside the jungle array map, Xu Changqing felt that he had entered the place with strange spiritual energy, and his divine consciousness also automatically quietly absorbed the surrounding spiritual energy, and the fairy spirit energy in his body was gradually recovering at a speed several times faster than self-cultivation. However, the jungle array map ended only on the periphery of this place, and Xu Changqing could only stop regretfully and shift his attention from the surrounding strange spiritual energy to the heart of the jungle array map.
