Chapter 260 Seven Star Array
Chapter 260 Seven Star Array
The two spirit beasts seemed to have a relatively amicable conversation and did not actually fight.
Soon, the water unicorn roared and turned to leave.
After the water unicorn had gone far away, Jiuxiao transformed into human form and landed beside Ye Qing'an.
Ye Qing'an glanced at Jiu Xiao: "You can talk to the water unicorn? Can you understand its language?"
"..." Jiuxiao's face was speechless: "We are all spirit beasts, and we all deal with water, so why can't I talk to them? Besides, even if we can't use animal language, we are all domesticated spirit beasts, so we can use human language."
Also.
What did you say to him?
"Just as we guessed, the water unicorn was indeed affected by its master extracting one of its souls and spirits, which is why it has become what it is now."
"Its mind is not very clear, and it is unable to transform into human form. It also cannot distinguish who its master is, and it is being coerced and lured by the people in this mansion to do all sorts of things. The people in this mansion are afraid that it will run away, so they have chained it up."
"Because it can't tell who its owner is, and it has probably been severely disciplined, it obeys anyone's commands. Just now, I tried to pretend to be its owner and give it commands, and it obeyed."
"But it's probably because he can't transform into human form, and there are no ancient magical beasts in the Gu family that can communicate with him, so the people in the Gu family don't know about the water unicorn and think that they have tamed it."
Ye Qing'an frowned: "It is truly lamentable that an ancient magical beast has fallen to such a state."
“Yes.” Jiuxiao also sighed: “So I hope that you can protect your soul in the future. After all, you have a criminal record. If your soul is taken away, I hope you can be more conscious and take your own life. I would rather die than suffer like that.”
Ye Qing'an sneered: "Then why don't we just kill you now? That way you won't have to suffer later."
"..." Jiuxiao took two steps back to the side: "Isn't that unnecessary?"
Ye Qing'an ignored him: "So, did you ask it how I can get out of this illusion?"
"Huh?" Jiuxiao looked over blankly: "This is... an illusion?"
"..."
Seeing that Ye Qing'an's expression had changed, Jiu Xiao quickly chased after the direction in which the water unicorn had left before Ye Qing'an could get angry.
Ye Qing'an's gaze swept around the illusion. Apart from Ye Mei's illusion, the other illusions all had entrances and exits, and the entrances and exits were usually quite obvious.
However, because the illusion was shrouded in fog, and all the scenery was covered in fog, it was impossible to see where the entrance and exit of the illusion were.
Ye Qing'an's gaze finally fell on the dancers performing on the opposite island. Ye Qing'an watched for a long time. If those dancers were just illusions in the dream world and not real people, then they would just keep repeating the same dance.
But the dancers on the opposite island are now performing a completely different dance from the one she performed when she first entered this illusion.
Therefore, they are not illusions, but real people who were sent into this illusion.
Like the water unicorn, it came specifically to deal with her.
Ye Qing'an suddenly stretched her hand back, and the Wildfire Whip appeared in her hand.
Holding the whip, Ye Qing'an leaped across to the small island opposite.
Just as Ye Qing'an was about to approach the small island, the dancers on the island suddenly sprang into action. They quickly formed a formation in their usual positions: "Formation activated!"
With a delicate shout, a beam of light suddenly appeared in the hands of the dancers. The light converged in the center of the array, and the dancers began to spin rapidly, leaving only afterimages, while the array grew larger and larger.
Ye Qing'an narrowed her eyes. Although her spiritual power cultivation was still insufficient, she had considerable experience in her previous life. With just one glance, Ye Qing'an recognized that this was the Seven Star Formation.
The Seven Star Formation involves seven people arranged according to the Big Dipper constellation, occupying seven positions to encircle the enemy. As the formation constantly changes, the seven people continuously shift positions, working together in a dynamic and ever-changing manner.
It may seem mysterious and unpredictable, but every formation has its own gates of life and death.
If you have a thorough understanding of the formation diagram, then you cannot trap people.
The seven men kept attacking Ye Qing'an. Although Ye Qing'an lacked spiritual power, he had received special training in his previous life, and his movement techniques were unmatched even by those with high-level Xuanling skills.
Ye Qing'an moved with incredible speed, constantly wielding the Wildfire Whip in his hand. With a flick of his wrist, countless ice arrows condensed in the air.
The ice arrows flew swiftly toward the seven people...
The seven attacked while simultaneously defending against Ye Qing'an's assault. In the blink of an eye, Ye Qing'an had already headed straight for the life gate of the Seven Star Formation.
It was probably because Ye Qing'an was a good-for-nothing known to everyone in Wangjing that Gu Xiang and Li Siya, although determined to deal with Ye Qing'an, did not intend to kill him, and they underestimated him. Therefore, although the Seven Star Formation was powerful, it was not a killing formation.
Not only is it not a killing formation, but the seven people who set up this Seven Star Formation are not outstanding in terms of spiritual power and martial arts.
If the seven of them joined forces, dealing with Ye Qing'an would not be difficult, but in a one-on-one situation, they would not be a match for Ye Qing'an.
Ye Qing'an leaped towards the gate of life. In that instant, magical ice arrows rapidly condensed around her and shot straight towards the gate of life along with her.
"what!"
A cry of pain rang out, and one of the dancers suddenly clutched the wound on her shoulder from the ice arrow and fell backward.
As soon as the dancer fell, the so-called Seven Star Array instantly crumbled.
The unformed Seven Star Array was made up of just six people with ordinary spiritual power.
Ye Qing'an curled her lips into a cold smile, and the Wildfire Whip in her hand lashed out at the group with lightning speed.
The Wildfire Whip is an excellent spiritual weapon. With a flick of the whip, it suddenly burst into flames in mid-air, as if it had suddenly grown ten times larger, and swept towards those people.
Seemingly not expecting the whip in Ye Qing'an's hand to have such great power, the group was stunned for a moment.
In that instant, the Wildfire Whip was already in front of them, binding them all together...
When Jiu Xiao returned, this was the scene he saw: Ye Qing'an was holding a whip, with six people tied to the other end, and another person lying on the ground covered in wounds, struggling and crying out in pain...
