C1943 The Formation Was Broken
The people who were trapped in the barrier were all confused. They looked at Zhou Yi with confused eyes.
Zhou Yi had just finished absorbing the energy, so he didn't intend to continue absorbing these people.
He had to stabilize the energy in his body first before making any plans.
The dark shadow had already returned to its human form. Seeing that Zhou Yi had finally withdrawn from his training, it hurriedly asked, "Master, do you want to eat something?"
Zhou Yi nodded, "How long has it been?"
When he began to absorb energy, the sun was shining brightly. It was still the same. He did not believe that the entire process had only lasted for an instant.
"Three days!" The shadow handed the roasted meat that he had prepared in advance to Zhou Yi.
Zhou Yi took the roasted meat and sighed, "I didn't expect this thing to be so hard to absorb. I wonder where these came from."
"I feel like they came from the foot of the mountain. Just now, Master was concentrating on absorbing the energy. When the other energy finally dissipated, I saw that it seemed to have landed on the ground." The Dark Shadow replied respectfully.
"Down?"
Zhou Yi's eyes fell on his feet. The Divine Soul Power was released slowly and reached down to the ground.
Unfortunately, his Divine Soul Power's energy was limited now. He could only probe a few meters underground at most. After he returned to the ground, about three to five meters below where his Divine Soul Power reached, a cluster of pitch-black energy was surging non-stop, and finally disappeared.
"I need to refine and purify the energy in the next few days. Help me look around. If there is any movement, wake me up!"
Zhou Yi ate something and drank some water.
Dark Shadow quickly replied, "Master, don't worry."
After that, Zhou Yi went into cultivation. The energy that was absorbed into his body was absorbed by Zhou Yi as if he was swallowing dates. Zhou Yi used it again to purify and refine it.
Although his cultivation base had already reached the Universe Stage Peak realm, he didn't dare to be careless as he was afraid that the problem with his foundation would affect his future cultivation base.
The Dark Shadow was responsible for guarding the outer perimeter of the valley.
He didn't expect a thick black fog to quietly enter the barrier laid down by Zhou Yi from underground.
In the blink of an eye, the barrier was pitch black.
When the thick black fog dispersed, the seven or eight people in the barrier disappeared along with it.
Zhou Yi opened his eyes again a day later.
He was awakened by the shadow.
"Master, master, it's bad. Those 'people' have been lost." The Dark Shadow looked at Zhou Yi anxiously.
Zhou Yi's eyes swept across the barrier.
As expected, the barrier was not broken!
The barrier was set up by him. If it was damaged by external forces, he would sense it.
Now that the barrier had not been damaged, the thing inside had disappeared. This could only mean one thing. What the Dark Shadow had said earlier might have been correct.
These things could escape from the ground.
Similarly, Zhou Yi still had some doubts. These things were either ignorant to begin with, or no one had lured them. Would they know how to escape from the ground?
"If they dare to return to the city now, let's see if Huaxin's detection formation is finished. If those people manage to sneak into the city, I'm afraid all the residents in the city will be in danger."
Thinking of this, Zhou Yi suddenly stood up.
Those things could hide their tracks the most. If they were to run away like this, it would be really difficult to find them.
He and the Dark Shadow were the first to arrive at Luoyang City. When they saw that the detection array had been set up, the heavy burden in their hearts was lifted.
"Is anyone entering the city today?" The Dark Shadow went to the city gate guard and asked.
"Who are you? Do I have to answer your question? Are you sick?"
The guard rolled his eyes and turned around to continue bragging to the guard beside him.
"You must answer me when I speak to you!"
The Dark Shadow stretched out his hand and pulled the other party in front of him, shouting in a deep voice, "I will ask you one last time, is there anyone entering the city today?"
"You, are you sick? I... Why should I tell you!" The defenders tried to push the shadow away, but they failed.
Just as the shadow was about to raise its hand, a token flew into the arms of another city defender.
The city defender picked up the token with a puzzled expression. After taking a look, he instantly knelt on the ground, "S-Sir, this lowly one doesn't know that Sir is personally here. I hope that Sir can atone for my sins."
Zhou Yi slowly walked forward and patted Dark Shadow's shoulder. "Tell me. Did anyone enter the city from last night until today?"
Dark Shadow let out a cold humph and let go of the other party. The city defender also hurriedly knelt on the ground. "Re- Replying to Your Excellency, from last night until today, no one entered the city. Only a few hunters went out to hunt this morning."
"Those who enter the city must be allowed to pass through the detection grand formation. If they discover any problems, they must not alert the enemy. They must quickly inform the city lord and have them quickly inform the king. Do you know?" Zhou Yi said.
The two of them knelt on the ground and hurriedly kowtowed, "This lowly one will remember this!"
Zhou Yi raised his hand and the token instantly returned to his hand.
After that, he brought the Dark Shadow into the city and returned to Linfeng City through the transmission array.
However, he did not see Hua Xin when he returned.
Mu Xi replied, "There are still two cities that have yet to set up the detection array. The king has brought people over."
"Which two cities?"
[It should be the Feng and Huo Families.] Mu Yan replied.
"Feng Family?"
Zhou Yi repeated subconsciously. Then, he hurried to the transmission array and said, "Let's go. Bring some people with us to the Feng Family."
Hearing this, Mu Yan hurriedly followed along with a group of people.
However, when they arrived at the transmission array, they found that the transmission array to the Feng Family City had been broken.
"What's going on?" Mu Yan shouted.
The two guards who were in charge of guarding the formation fell to their knees with a plop, "Re- Replying Lord Mu, we didn't know that when the king left in the morning, he was still fine. Just now, not long ago, the formation suddenly let out an explosion, and then the connection was broken."
"Mister, mister, what should we do? The king must have had an accident over there." Mu Qian turned around and knelt in front of Zhou Yi.
With Zhou Yi's current cultivation base, it was impossible for him to set up a grand formation between the two places. The only thing he could do was repair it.
But was it really in time?2
Zhou Yi did not know what had happened over there, but there were too many questions about the Feng family's stronghold from beginning to end.
The most important thing was that the soul mark of Feng County was left by Hua Xin. As such, he had no idea what was going on over there.
"Sir!!" Seeing that Zhou Yi did not speak, Mu Yan could not help but raise her voice, "Sir, did... did you listen to me?"
Zhou Yi nodded, "The Feng family is too far away from here. If we don't rely on the transmission array, we will need at least a day and a night to get there. So what we need to do now is to repair the array."
After saying that, Zhou Yi walked to the transmission array.
Mu Yan also got up from the ground. "What do you want me to do? Tell me."
Zhou Yi shook his head, "I don't need your help here. Go to Huo Family City and check on the situation there."
Mu Yan left.
Zhou Yi stood in front of the destroyed transmission array and slowly reached out his hand.
