Chapter 673
: Eight Innate Hexagrams
Chapter 673: Innate Bagua
In the ancient battlefield, smoke, dust and rubble rose up like huge waves.
Ye Zang summoned the Heaven-Destroying Dharma Body and continued to kill his way into the depths. No one could stop him. He stepped on the Chaos Steps, his body dodged and moved rapidly, and he disappeared into the distance in a few breaths.
The earth was as if it was washed with blood. Ye Zang flew thousands of miles away without looking back. Only then did he stop and look around.
Deep in the ancient battlefield, the sky was gray and hazy, broken mountains and valleys stood all around, miasma lingered between the mountains, and terrifying evil spirits continued to surge out, like sharp blades, scraping across the earth.
The spiritual energy here is very thin, almost negligible.
Ye Zang narrowed his eyes, found a hidden broken mountain and landed there, then sacrificed the Wuxiang Ding.
Inside, Yuwen Yin was covered in blood, his Taoist body was torn and had horrific scars. He was suppressed by restrictions and could not move. At this moment, he had woken up from his coma, his face was pale, and he looked at Ye Zang with trembling eyes.
"Tianming demon, what do you want to do!" Yuwen Yin gritted his teeth and forced himself to speak and scolded.
"You're already injured like this, you should save some energy." Ye Zang's eyes darkened slightly, and he said calmly: "I can let you go back to Beixuan, but you have to know the current situation..."
"Don't even think about getting anything from me. I won't tell you anything!" Yuwen Yin's face twitched as he said sternly.
"So, you, the Beixuan monks, do have other purposes for coming to the ancient battlefield?" Ye Zang said with a smile.
Yuwen Yin's eyes twitched, and he said, "Give me a quick death, kill me!"
"Don't worry."
Ye Zang's eyes were glowing scarlet as he looked at Yuwen Yin.
Even if he didn't say it, Ye Zang also had a way. There were many records of soul-searching techniques in Ruan Xifeng's "Yunji Tulu" and Mo Jun's "Taiyin Taiyang Out-of-Body Method". What's more, Ye Zang's spiritual consciousness was so powerful now, and his soul was almost perfect at this level. It was easy for him to explore Yuwen Yin's chaotic sea of consciousness.
Seems to know what Ye Zang is planning to do.
Yuwen Yin gritted his teeth and was about to destroy his own chaotic sea of consciousness. Seeing this, Ye Zang immediately activated the restriction of the Wuxiang Ding. In an instant, the domineering spiritual power of the Wuxiang Taoist child enveloped him.
His chaotic sea of consciousness was suppressed and calmed down.
Now, he couldn't even commit suicide and could only let Ye Zang manipulate him. Moreover, in his chaotic sea of consciousness, there was originally a spiritual mark left by the elders of his own sect, but now it was gradually erased under Ye Zang's spell.
"Let me see what you know..."
Ye Zang's eyes glowed red, and the spiritual orifice on his forehead opened wide. The seals on his hands kept changing, and his domineering and arrogant spiritual sense continued to cover the area.
Soul-searching has its flaws. If the latter fights desperately, the memories reflected during his lifetime may not be complete.
Yu Wenyin obviously didn't want to give up. He gritted his teeth, blood flowing from the corners of his mouth, and fought desperately.
Boom boom boom!
Ye Zang's spiritual consciousness pierced into his chaotic sea of consciousness like a sharp blade, stirring up the situation inside.
As Ye Zang silently recited the Taoist text, his vision became blurred. His Dharma Eyes reflected fragments of Yuwen Yin's memories in recent years, which flashed before his eyes like a kaleidoscope.
This soul-searching technique is recorded in the "Yunji Tulu". It can reflect the memories in the sea of consciousness of a living person within three years. As for how much can be reflected, it all depends on the means of the person who performs the technique.
A faint voice rang in Ye Zang's ears, so ethereal and ethereal.
The world in my eyes changed drastically, and the reflected scenery rushed towards me.
That is the center of Beixuan Continent, a golden throne hall on top of a mountain, with the bright sun hanging high in the sky, pouring down brilliant righteous energy. This is obviously the 'Hall of Righteousness', one of Beixuan's inherited Taoist traditions.
"Yin'er, your Taoism is almost complete, it's time to go to the border to hone your skills."
"We cultivators are determined to slay demons and monsters to prove the purity of heaven. Life and death are determined by heaven!"
"Disciple, obey orders..."
"Where is Zhiwei? I want to see her!"
"Brother, please go to Tianbei City Gate to challenge and hold off those Tianming monsters for a while. We are going to the ruins of an ancient battlefield."
"This is a task assigned by our master. It is of great importance. Please keep it in mind..."
Those images, those sounds, intermittently, passed by Ye Zang's eyes and ears at a very fast speed.
Ye Zang's spiritual consciousness continued to penetrate deeper into Yuwen Yin's sea of consciousness, wanting to explore deeper and clearer.
Only half an incense stick later, Yuwen Yin let out a shrill scream, and his chaotic sea of consciousness instantly collapsed and annihilated.
Ye Zang came back to his senses and saw Yu Wenyin in front of him with disheveled hair and empty eyes. Even his Nascent Soul had dissipated, and he was completely dead.
"Are you in such a hurry to die? It seems that this secret is quite big." Ye Zangsi hesitated.
He shook his sleeves, and the bloody magic power crushed Yuwen Yin's body into powder, which disappeared with the wind.
Then, Ye Zang wasted no time and soared into the air.
The seals on his hands kept changing, and the Dharma Eye restrictions covered his forehead.
"The five elements of heaven and earth, borrowing the power of heaven and earth!"
Ye Zang's spiritual consciousness radiated, and he used acupuncture to explore the area of tens of thousands of miles.
The ancient battlefield is different from the outside. There are many restrictions here, and it is filled with miasma, making it extremely cumbersome to explore. However, Ye Zang is not looking for some cave of fortune. He wants to find the whereabouts of Lu Zhiwei and other Taoists.
According to the clues lurking in Yuwen Yin's sea of consciousness just now, a group of Beixuan Taoists are secretly staying in this ancient battlefield.
Those people were obviously planning something, or looking for some fortune?
"In his previous life, Taoist Bei Xuan took great risks in order to completely control this ancient battlefield. There must be some unknown secrets lurking here."
Ye Zang thought with certainty, and he sat cross-legged for three days after the mountain was broken.
In the distance, the magic power that was sent out through acupoint pressing came back. Ye Zang's eyes suddenly lit up and he looked towards the northeast.
In the deepest part, there were many Beixuan Taoists gathered. Among them, Ye Zang found a cultivator with extremely sharp sword skills. It could not be anyone else except the young sword master of Beixuan, Lu Zhiwei.
Then, Ye Zang did not waste any time. He summoned the flying boat and flew there carefully.
He used his powerful spiritual sense to conceal the aura of the flying boat and also set up a concealment magic circle. The flying boat seemed to be flying in the void and could not be detected unless it came within a few feet.
……
Half a day later, the distance was shrouded in mist, and the mountains stretched out one after another.
In the fog, it looked as terrifying as a ferocious monster, making people feel daunted and terrified.
The ground veins are deep red, and all kinds of corpses can be seen everywhere. Some of the corpses are left over from the late ancient times. They are as tall as hills. No one knows what kind of relic died here.
The evil spirit on the corpse was so terrifying that if an ordinary Yuanying Taoist touched even a little bit of it, they might even be pierced through the purple palace.
It is extremely dangerous within the mountains, comparable to the deathly restricted areas in the Ten Continents.
Ye Zang withdrew the flying boat and landed silently in the air. His Dharma eyes looked around to avoid the restrictions that remained here.
"The auras of those Northern Xuan Taoists are within the mountains. Why are they staying in such a forbidden place of death..."
Ye Zang narrowed his eyes and paced away.
Within his Dharma Eyes, he could see the auras and figures of many Beixuan Taoists lurking in various places in the mountains. To be on the safe side, Ye Zang did not check on them all the time. Among those people, there might be Nascent Soul disciples who had cultivated the All-Seeing Dharma Eyes.
"There doesn't seem to be anything special here." Ye Zang walked into the mountains shrouded in gray fog, his Dharma eyes constantly observing the surroundings.
There are no rare treasures here, nor any secret hiding places in the realm. There are only extremely disordered and scattered restrictions. I really don't know why these Beixuan people came to such a restricted area.
With the wind howling beside him, Ye Zang flew away cautiously.
The nearest Beixuan disciple to him was less than ten miles away. Ye Zang slowed down and restrained his breath.
He paced forward and looked behind an ancient stone.
There is a relic not far away. The relic is in a dilapidated state, covered with moss, and the ground is very humid. It seems that this relic was the site of a certain Taoist sect in the late ancient times.
From the ruins of the gate, Yezo could vaguely see three ancient characters: "Golden Gate"
"Golden Light Gate?" Ye Zang frowned slightly.
He thought about it carefully and had the impression that he had never heard of such a sect. It was probably an unknown sect in the late ancient times.
Inside the ruins of the Jinguan Gate, there was a Beixuan disciple wearing a Haoran robe, walking back and forth holding a formation plate.
On the array plate, the eight trigrams were constantly glowing, as if he was looking for something.
"What are you looking for?"
Ye Zang raised his eyebrows, his Dharma Eyes pierced through and followed closely behind.
The disciple searched for a whole incense stick of time, then stopped somewhere in the ruins of the Jinguan Gate, activated the power of the Purple Mansion, and dug a thousand feet deep there before he dug out a dark wooden sign.
The words "Qiannan" are engraved on this wooden sign.
"The innate Bagua, the position of Qiannan." Ye Zang thought to himself.
The disciple was covered in dust and he shook off the dirt on his body, but his face looked very excited.
He touched the wooden sign in his hand, his eyes trembling slightly.
But the next second, before he could put away the wooden sign, he felt a cold wind blowing from behind.
"Who!" The Nascent Soul disciple reacted very quickly and turned his head instantly.
What greeted him was a cauldron mouth that was like a black hole. Ye Zang flew into the air, but the Wuxiang Cauldron suppressed him instantly, trapping him tightly.
The disciple did not even see the person who made the move. In an instant he felt that the world had dimmed and he was directly in a dark and chaotic place.
The wooden sign in his hand was also taken away by Ye Zang's magic power.
The man was extremely frightened, his pupils dilated, and he looked around.
Ye Zang ignored him for the time being. He held the Wuxiang Ding in the palm of his left hand, and in his right hand he held the wooden plaque with the words "Qiannan" engraved on it, and looked it over with his Dharma eyes.
"It's quite interesting. With my dharma eyes and divine sense, I can't even detect a broken forbidden array pattern."
Ye Zang was slightly surprised.
The wooden sign in his hand was extremely cold and gray-brown in color. This wooden sign was a dilapidated spiritual weapon, and there was a broken array pattern in the space inside, which was extremely complicated and criss-crossed.
Ye Zang used his Dharma Eye to look at it for a while and found that his soul was about to sink into it uncontrollably. It looked like a wooden sign, but behind the restriction array pattern, it seemed as if the entire universe was constructed, which was shocking.
"Who on earth could have done this? This kind of technique is definitely not something that any Taoist master in the world could have arranged. Even Old Man Zhenyu or Ruan Xifeng definitely don't have the skills to create such an array."
Ye Zang looked at it in surprise.
The formation pattern above can be compared with the various chess formations in the Yitian chess game.
Such things actually remained in this inconspicuous ancient battlefield.
"What is this?" Ye Zang asked into the Wuxiang Ding with his spiritual consciousness.
"You, who are you? Let me out!" the Beixuan disciple shouted loudly.
"Die, or answer my question..." Ye Zang said impatiently.
"Tianming demon!" The Beixuan disciple gritted his teeth when he heard the voice.
Ye Zang was indifferent, and his spiritual sense probed in coldly.
After the disciple knew that Ye Zang was not from Beixuan, he immediately kept silent and did not say a word no matter how Ye Zang threatened him.
Ye Zang had no choice but to use the soul-searching technique to investigate again.
But what we discovered were just a revolving lantern of remaining memories.
This disciple was just a Nascent Soul disciple of the Haoran Sect. He followed Lu Zhiwei here and used the formation plate to search for these "Innate Bagua Plates". As for what these wooden plates were used for, he had no idea.
"The restrictions on this wooden sign seem to be somewhat similar to the ancient Tengnuo formation. Could it be a token to open a secret place of creation somewhere?" Ye Zang guessed, touching the wooden sign in his hand.
Because many secret hiding places controlled by traditional Taoist traditions would produce some forbidden tokens to facilitate disciples’ entry and exit.
While thinking about this, Ye Zang destroyed the body.
By the way, he also took the formation plate used by this disciple for investigation.
"This formation is very crude..."
Ye Zang looked at the array plate used by Taoist Bei Xuan for positioning, thinking to himself. He used his magic eye to instantly see through the search restriction on the array plate, and then used his own Qimen technique to rearrange it and engraved it on the array plate.
This magical power instantly reached a higher level.
After putting away the wooden sign and the formation plate, Ye Zang continued to go deeper.
There seem to be many relics of ancient Taoist sects within these mountains. I think that there were many Taoist sects existing in this ancient battlefield in the late ancient times.
"In the late ancient times, wasn't this the territory of the ancient dynasty? How come there are so many Taoist relics here?" Ye Zang thought.
The Corpse Demon Sect rose up in the ruins of an ancient dynasty. The territory of that ancient dynasty was very large, covering millions of miles.
There were probably hundreds of Beixuan monks coming into the mountains shrouded in gray fog. Like the disciple before, they held formation plates in their hands and searched everywhere for the wooden plaque engraved with the innate Bagua.
Ye Zang held the Immortal Meteorite Shuttle hovering in his palm, and approached them silently. He raised his sword and slashed it with great efficiency and decisiveness. The Immortal Meteorite Shuttle directly cut through the sky, piercing through their spiritual orifices and Nascent Souls.
In just half an hour, Ye Zang had killed more than thirty people, and he reduced the noise to the minimum.
Ye Zang searched through their Qiankun bags and found more than a dozen wooden tablets of the Xiantian Bagua.
"What on earth is this thing used for?" Ye Zang frowned and continued to go deeper.
Hundreds of miles away, there appeared the remains of a Taoist sect from the late ancient times.
The name of this sect is 'Dun Yi Men'. Although the mountain gate is dilapidated, one can still vaguely see that this sect was very powerful countless years ago.
There are several Beixuan disciples here, but they are not looking for the Bagua cards. Instead, they are pondering something in front of a jade disk engraved with ancient characters.
