After all, he had come into contact with it quite a few times and he had gotten a certain level of experience with it. In fact, he had almost died in the midst of the formation on the battlefield of Wang Jing Village in Qingjiang City.

However, the formation that appeared now was completely different from the one he had experienced in the past.

Yao Yuan simply did not have any time to react. It was very natural, as if he had directly walked in. If not for the fact that he could not find the way back and discovered that there was something different with the map, he would not be able to tell that he was in the array at all.

Miao Ling also realized that something was amiss. She wanted to try and open it from the inside, but in the end, she couldn't.

A strong wave of spirit qi rippled out from Miao Ling's hand, using the form of a beam of light to attack the surroundings.

He thought that even if he couldn't break through the defense of this place, he would at least be able to see where the border area was. However, after Miao Ling's beam of light shot out, he didn't see anything.

Seeing this, the two couldn't accept this outcome. If the result was really like this, then the strength of this formation was truly abnormal.

Either it was a fusion of the laws of the world, or its power was ridiculously strong, and no matter which possibility it was, to Yao Yuan, it was an unacceptable fact.

Yao Yuan sat down on the ground in distress.

At the peak of the Mount Li Mountain, a group of middle-aged men sat on chairs. In front of them was a crystal ball, and a large projection appeared on top of the crystal ball.

"What's the situation now?"

An old man who was lying on an armchair in the middle said slowly.

"Old Master Qi, it looks pretty good right now. Three people have already passed the first trial, so the efficiency is still quite good."

the man in front of him said respectfully.

The old man who was called Old Master Qi nodded and said, "Not bad, not bad, looks like the quality of the Cultivator this time is still acceptable."

"However …"

Just as Old Master Qi finished nodding his head and praising, the middle-aged man who spoke suddenly looked troubled, and stuttered at Old Master Qi.

"If you have something to say, just say it."

"These are only Cultivator s of the Stream Stage. There isn't even one among the four hundred people of the Pond Fish Stage."

"What!"

Old Master Qi was suddenly angry. He slammed the table and said with his eyes wide open: "Is what you said true?"

The middle-aged man knew what the Old Master Qi was angry about and quickly replied, "Although they didn't pass, there are still quite a few people who are close to success. I estimate that it won't be long before they succeed."

Since he said that, Old Master Qi's anger finally dissipated a little.

"The current situation is already very unstable, we have to ensure the development of the younger generation. If we continue to fail, I'm afraid our Cultivation Realm will suffer."

Old Master Qi sighed.

Middle-aged man bowed his head and didn't speak.

"Alright, let's continue watching."

The Old Master Qi nodded his head, signalling the middle-aged man to take care of his own matters.

Just then, someone saw something and said in surprise, "Not good, someone went in the wrong direction!"

Because this was the first time the Skills Competition had reformed, and because they had never tried this method of competition before, when the competition had begun, the organizers had already planned out the best route for the competition.

Of course, the direction was already decided.

The Mount Li had not had a mountain gate stationed here for a very long time, so after a few hundred years, quite a few wild beasts or other things appeared on the Mount Li. Many places could already be considered rather dangerous places.

It was precisely because of this that there were some people who cried out in alarm when they saw Yao Yuan and the others going in a different direction.

"Yin Yang Phenomenon Formation!"

"They are inside the Yin Yang Phenomenon Formation!"

The middle-aged man exclaimed.

The Old Master Qi was not too worried. Smiling, he stroked his beard and said, "Don't worry, let's take a look first."

Amongst this group of people, the majority of them were the upper echelons of the entire Cultivation Realm. Stream Stage was just a child, looking at Yao Yuan and his appearance, they were not really that worried.

"Don't worry, nothing will happen to your Mount Li. If something happens, we'll help you carry it together."

Looking at the middle-aged man's worried expression, the crowd burst into laughter.

The camera switched to Yao Yuan's side. The unknown was the most terrifying point, and when Yao Yuan understood this point, he immediately felt powerless throughout his body.

Miao Ling sat obediently by Yao Yuan's side. She, who was usually lively, didn't want to say anything more.

"I don't think we should."

Not knowing how much time had passed, Miao Ling suddenly said as the surrounding air began to show signs of solidifying.

Yao Yuan turned and looked at her, but did not say a word.

"Regardless of what sort of formation this is, or whether we've made the wrong decision, since we've already reached this stage, why are we giving up on ourselves?"

Miao Ling did not have a smile on her face, as if she was talking about a very ordinary thing.

"Let's give it a try and think of a way. Maybe we still have a chance."

After Miao Ling finished speaking, she stood up first and walked over to the place where the two were hiding and started observing seriously.

The originally discouraged Yao Yuan suddenly realized something. Even though the expression on his face was still extremely heavy, at least he was no longer as inactive as he was before.

The array was as calm as usual, but when Yao Yuan tried to bring Miao Ling away, he realized that it was useless. No matter how many laps he took or how many paths he took, he eventually returned to the starting point.

Just as the two of them were at their limits, a very old voice suddenly came from above them. It said to them, "This is the Yin Yang Phenomenon Formation. Whether or not you can walk out depends on your comprehension of the Yin Yang Attributes. Once you understand it well, you will be able to find the core of this formation."

Seemingly worried that Yao Yuan and the other two wouldn't understand properly, he added: "I know that both of you have Pond Fish Stage, don't worry, I have already adjusted the array to the level of Pond Fish, whether or not you can leave depends on yourselves."

Yin and Yang were the most fundamental elements in this world.

Yao Yuan didn't really understand, and could only look at Miao Ling with a puzzled expression.

Miao Ling knew that Yao Yuan had always ventured alone, and must have a little knowledge about the basics of Cultivation Realm, so she could only slowly explain.

The knowledge of the five elements was the most basic, but back then when the world first opened, there were only Yin and Yang, Yin and Yang gave birth to two elements, the two elements gave birth to four images and the four images gave birth to eight trigrams. If one could truly comprehend Yin and Yang, it would be the best choice for Cultivator.
