Chapter 538: You really didn’t see it?
Gu Beichen and Xie Moxuan looked at each other and were suddenly speechless.
Looking down at the ground from a high altitude, they saw a circular basin with a high sand area that was also circular.
Now they are told that the reason this place is higher than other places is because there are sand beasts hidden underground. After the sand beasts left, the ground sank.
If this is true, then those sand beasts are too smart. Not only can they move in groups, but they can also huddle together in a circle and sleep.
Xie Moxuan suddenly thought of something and asked, "Do you think there is some connection between the sand beast and the Five Elements Formation?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone fell into deep thought.
They were already very sure that this was indeed the center of the Five Elements Formation.
The two craters are at the same distance from their location.
The crater was still spewing molten lava, but at a much slower rate than before.
The steaming molten lava rushed towards this side, but stopped at a certain location. Even though the terrain in front was lower, it did not flow forward at all.
Gu Beichen and Xie Moxuan also discovered this in the air yesterday. After the molten lava flowed to a certain position, it should have continued to move forward, but it stopped, as if there was an obstacle preventing the molten lava from moving forward.
They saw the terrain underground, which was obviously lower than other places. It looked like a basin composed of five positions, but the middle position was a high bulge.
Xie Moxuan told Ye Tianlan about these details in detail after Shen Wanwan brought Gu Beichen into the dormitory.
Ye Tianlan withdrew his gaze, took out the Lingxu Sword again, took a few steps forward, stood up, quickly drew a circle, and then tapped five dots on it.
"Look, these are the five corners of the Five Elements Formation. Two of them have already appeared, and the remaining three are here, here, and here."
Gu Beichen nodded, "That's right, now that we have confirmed their exact location, we just need to find a way to trigger the formation phenomenon and then break it."
When they were looking down from the air yesterday, they planned to go to the ground to confirm the specific location again, but unfortunately an unexpected situation prevented them from further confirmation.
Ye Tianlan had told them before that if they failed to find the remaining three positions before the two craters stopped erupting, the Five Elements Formation would never be manifested.
In other words, they will be trapped in this desert forever and unable to leave.
This is also the reason why Gu Beichen insisted that Xiao Zhulong take the two of them to the highest possible position for observation when he was guessing the approximate locations of the other three formations.
Apart from this, they had no better way to find those three positions in a short time.
The desert is really too big. Not to mention anything else, the place where they are currently standing is as big as the entire palace of Nan Yao Kingdom.
With such a long distance, it is almost impossible to find the formation position, activate the phenomenon and break the formation in a short period of time.
Fortunately, some of them can fly with swords, and the little candle dragon can ride on clouds, but even so, time is quite tight.
"Since this is the center of the entire Five Elements Formation, the center of the formation must be here when it is first activated. We will each guard a position in the formation and must pay close attention to the formation's situation at all times. Once the formation is activated, we must strike this position with all our might."
Ye Tianlan explained in detail how to use an array to break an array and the details that should be paid attention to.
Shen Wanwan questioned, "So, the Five Elements Formation has five positions. Each of us should guard one position, and we need to arrange for someone to guard the middle position. But there are only four people in total, which is obviously not enough."
The other three were silent.
When they discussed how to break the formation, they took Xiao Zhulong into consideration.
Although it is not a human, it is an ancient dragon. Even if it is just a young dragon, it is the strongest in their group.
But the little Candle Dragon has been in a dormant state since it entered Gu Beichen's sea of consciousness last night and has not woken up yet.
No one knew when it would wake up, including Gu Beichen, who once again regretted his reckless behavior yesterday.
Little Zhulong hadn't woken up yet, so there was nothing they could do except wait patiently.
I hope it doesn't die out before waking up again in the other two craters.
Ye Tianlan pondered for a moment and said, "The Five Elements Formation is interdependent and constantly changing. We must succeed in one fell swoop, otherwise we will be buried in the molten lava and turned into ashes. Therefore, before we can truly break the formation, we must have enough rest time to ensure that we have enough strength to break it."
Shen Wanwan nodded, "Then shall we go into the space now?"
Ye Tianlan shook his head and said, "We have to leave here first. If I'm not mistaken, those sand beasts will come back at night. We can't stay here."
According to records about sand beasts in ancient books, they hide under the sand during the day and only come out at night to hunt. They are social animals and all come out when hunting.
Therefore, they have at least two nests, and if I'm not mistaken, this is one of them.
When sand beasts go out to hunt in groups, they naturally have to leave their nests. Then the originally flat or high ground will become concave due to their absence.
Ye Tianlan flew his sword again and took the three of them out of the depression. They did not leave the basin valley, but avoided the route of the sand beast coming towards them.
After the four people entered the space, they had a simple meal and then separated.
Ye Tianlan was still meditating and practicing beside the spiritual spring.
In the past two days, he felt that his spiritual power had been increasing, and there was a hint of a breakthrough.
If he could break through to the second level of foundation building, he would have a greater chance of breaking the formation, so he naturally wanted to strive for it as much as possible.
Therefore, after entering the space, as long as you have time, you are practicing.
Shen Wanwan did not rest in the pharmacy. Instead, she came to the stream beside the medicine field, found the place where she had meditated two days ago, and sat down cross-legged.
Before closing her eyes and starting to practice, her gaze lingered for a moment on the calm surface of the stream.
There was nothing moving except for a layer of colorful light that seemed to be flowing when reflected on the water.
Gu Beichen and Xie Moxuan went to the study first, picked up their pens, and started writing and drawing on paper.
I do not know how long it has been.
Gu Beichen's frown relaxed slightly, "Are you awake?"
He was communicating with Xiao Zhulong using his spiritual sense.
The little Candle Dragon hummed, moved its dragon claws, and stretched.
This time of hibernation was very comfortable.
Rich spiritual energy?
"Master, I'm going to practice first."
The voice was joyful.
A ray of light emerged from between Gu Beichen's eyebrows and instantly turned into a dragon, but without stopping for a moment, it flew out of the window.
The little candle dragon is extremely fast, leaving almost no afterimage.
Xie Moxuan only felt that the air flow rate changed for a moment, and he did not see the appearance of the little candle dragon, nor did he see it leave the study.
"Little Candle Dragon has woken up. We have almost finished our discussion. It's time to go back to the house and catch up on some sleep."
Gu Beichen also wanted to practice. He didn't want to be a burden, but Shen Wanwan's words were like an imperial decree to him.
"You said the little Candle Dragon is awake? Why is it still hiding in your sea of consciousness and not coming out to move around?"
Isn't it stuffy?
Xie Moxuan still couldn't understand how the little Candle Dragon could hide in Gu Beichen's brain when the dragon's body was so big and the human's head was so small.
His gaze fell on Gu Beichen's forehead, imagining the scene of the little Candle Dragon huddled behind Gu Beichen's forehead.
Curled up in a circle, unable to move his limbs.
Seems a bit pitiful.
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
Gu Beichen couldn't help but roll his eyes at Xie Moxuan. What kind of look was that? And that expression was no different from that of an idiot.
However, he still answered in a very good mood: "He just left here, saying that he was going to practice. How come you didn't see him?"
Xie Moxuan: “…”
Isn’t it just a contract with a dragon?
What is there to brag about?
After coming out of the study, Xiao Zhulong flew towards the stream as if he was familiar with the route, and was about to dive into the water. Suddenly, a figure came into his mind, and he resisted the urge to dive into the water.
Looking towards the medicinal field.
Sure enough, I saw a familiar figure.
Her petite and quiet profile shows that she is a gentle little beauty at first glance.
But it knew that the person's temper was seriously inconsistent with her appearance.
The little Candle Dragon quickly flew away and slowly dived to the bottom of the stream downstream where Shen Wanwan could no longer be seen.
It didn't know that Shen Wanwan had already noticed its presence the moment it appeared in the study.
Shen Wanwan even knew the path from the study to the sky above the stream clearly.
