Chapter 165

"Don't panic everyone, our worshipers have already gone to sea to set up the formation, and the boat will be able to control it soon..." Deacon Xingyou, who had brought Ning Cheng aboard before, hurriedly stood at the bow of the boat and shouted loudly.

Deacon Xing still had some prestige among all the crew members, and when he heard his shout, the crew on the ship quickly quieted down. They all started to hold on to the rails, trying to stabilize their bodies.

Ning Cheng saw the woman named Zhuang Ya and another Ningzhen cultivator appear at the bow of the boat, and the two of them kept throwing various flags in their hands.

Sure enough, as the two kept throwing out the formation flags, the swaying and turbulent ship gradually stabilized, and finally stopped, with only some slight swaying.

Ning Cheng looked at the array flags that had been thrown out, and shook his head speechlessly. This is where the formation is set up, it's just being thrown around at random. It's just that after the two threw the formation flag, the three Ningzhen cultivators in the sea stopped shaking the boat and climbed up from the sea.

As for the slight rocking of the ship, it was caused by someone placing a disk on the bottom of the ship.

This boat is loaded with food and the lowest-level materials. Does Ning Cheng know that these cultivators are going to do this? Don't say that this ship is not worth their robbery, even if you want to hijack the ship, you don't need to take off your pants and fart like this. Five Ningzhen cultivators can take this ship away at will.

At this time, several deacons and the person in charge on the ship had come to the bow, and the three Ningzhen cultivators who climbed up from the bottom of the sea also came to the bow, but their faces looked a little pale at this time. The people on the boat thought they were setting up the formation, which was caused by too much consumption, and several deacons and leaders came forward to thank them.

A long-haired man on the ninth floor of condensed truth waved his hand. Said with a dignified expression. "This is what we should do. It's just that there is a tidal whirlpool here. Although the formation we arranged temporarily controlled the ship, it couldn't last for long. Once the big tidal whirlpool came to break our formation, it would be dangerous... "

"Then what should we do?" A deacon on the boat asked in a panic. It's not like they haven't encountered the tidal whirlpool before. Once a tidal whirlpool is encountered, capsizing is a common occurrence.

The long-haired man also frowned and didn't answer for a long time. Next to a slightly fat man who was also at the ninth level of Condensation, he pondered, "This formation can last for at least twenty-four hours. As long as we get the materials for refining the formation flag within twenty-four hours, we can use this formation for at least 24 hours. If the law is strengthened, it will be able to survive this tidal vortex."

The woman named Zhuang Ya also frowned and said, "This is the sea, where can I find the materials for refining the formation flag?"

"I do know that there is a small island nearby, but I just don't know if there is any material for Brother Pang to refine the formation flag on the island." It was the condensed cultivator who, like Zhuang Ya, did not go to sea.

"That's right, I remembered it too. There is an island nearby, but..." A deacon apparently also thought of the nearby island, but he seemed to remember something extremely terrifying later. His face changed slightly.

Xing Youzai said with a sad face, "Several worshipping adults. I also know that island. We used to pass the boat from that island. It's just that in the past year, there has been a sudden layer of mist on the island. The caravan passed by the island and sent people to go there..."

Having said this, Xing You hesitated for a while, but continued, "None of the people who went up have come down, and no one has come up since."

The long-haired Ningzhen cultivator waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, there may be some low-level monsters on the island. The five of us go up at the same time, even if it is a powerful sea monster, it is not surprising. The matter is settled like this, fortunately. Deacon, you find fifty people to join us on the island to find the materials for refining the formation flag. We don’t have much time, and if we can’t do anything about it, staying here will end up capsizing and dying.”

Several other Ningzhen cultivators nodded in agreement and said, "Yes, we can only come and go for two days at most, so it should be too late."

After discussing it with a few people in charge of the ship, Xingyou reluctantly agreed, "Then choose fifty crew members to join, and invite a few to serve as adults..."

The squat cultivator Ningzhen said impatiently, "Don't worry, the five of us are on the island, how could there be any accident?"

When Ye Mo heard the selection, he immediately stepped back. He guessed that there should be something on the island, which made these Ningzhen cultivators think of this way. Find someone to go to the island, maybe to do coolies. He just came out of the Furious Axe Valley, and he really didn't pay attention to the things that several condensing cultivators saw, so he didn't want to go at all, and he didn't want to do coolies.

"You're also one..." What Ning Cheng didn't expect was that just after he took a few steps back, he was seen by the short and fat cultivator Ningzhen, pointing directly at Ning Cheng.

Ning Cheng had no choice but to stand up.

Fifty people were quickly selected, plus the five Ningzhen cultivators, a total of fifty-five people took a small boat and left the big boat. Several Ningzhen cultivators also pretended to throw some formation flags on the boat. Ning Cheng was speechless when he saw it, so he simply closed his eyes and rested.

...

The island was indeed not very far away. It took less than two hours for the small boat to reach the edge of the island, and Ning Cheng’s consciousness swept it out. He actually felt a strange absorption of vitality. The center of the island was foggy, and his consciousness could not penetrate it.

The boat stopped at the edge of the island, but the scene on the edge made all the crew members on the boat numb. The edge of the island is full of various skeletons, a piece of white, many skeletons were washed to the island by the waves, forming piles of white bones.

Ning Cheng's gaze swept over, these bones were not only some low-level sea beasts and fish, but also many human bones.

The five Ningzhen cultivators had already arrived on the island, but those seamen were timid and did not dare to go up. The short and fat cultivator Ningzhen suddenly bared his teeth and said, "Following us cultivators to the island to find materials will definitely be fine. After we go up, there will be no one to protect you, so you will have problems staying here. ."

Hearing the threat of the chubby monk, the sailors on the boat quickly rushed to the island, and in the end, only Ning Cheng stayed on the boat.

"Aren't you going up?" The squat cultivator stared at Ning Cheng and asked again. He knew Ning Cheng. He used to cheat on the boat before. .

Ning Cheng quickly stood up and said, "I'm afraid that the boat will be swept away by the waves, and there will be no boat when I go back, so I plan to slip away here to watch the boat."

The chubby cultivator gave another smirk, and was about to speak, but heard the female cultivator named Zhuang Ya say, "If he doesn't go up, he won't go up. We also need someone here to watch the boat. The number of people is almost there."

"Alright." The short and fat cultivator stared at Ning Cheng, then waved his hand and quickly disappeared into the depths of this island with the rest.

Ning Cheng threw the boat beside the island and set foot on this island alone. His spiritual consciousness slowly stretched out, and the restraints of vitality came one after another, making him feel that this island was not simple. It's just that he really can't think of what good things are in this island that lacks spiritual energy.

His consciousness turned back, and he wanted to find the fifty people who had left, but found that the fifty people seemed to have disappeared from here, with no trace at all.

Ning Cheng sensed something was wrong, he immediately followed the direction where everyone disappeared. After half a column of incense, Ning Cheng stopped in front of a rocky beach. There is an entrance in the middle of this rocky beach, and there are some flags outside the entrance.

There is really a person who understands the formation, and the level of the formation is not low. When Ning Cheng saw these formation flags, he knew that the formation flags here were definitely set up by someone who was proficient in formation techniques.

He walked into the entrance, and there was a smell of blood, and Ning Cheng's consciousness immediately saw a corpse. He knew this corpse, it was the crew member who just went to the island.

Ning Cheng immediately exited the entrance to the rocky beach, his consciousness swept out again, and soon his face turned cold.

It turned out to be a natural killing formation, and the level was not low. When he came just now, he didn't even notice it. Of these five condensing cultivators, someone can recognize this natural killing formation and open the entrance through the formation flag. This is definitely a formation mage with a higher formation level than him.

No wonder there are so many corpses on this island, it turns out that these were strangled by the natural killing array.

It is extremely difficult to find a natural killing formation, and it is even more difficult to crack this natural killing formation. But in the evil formation, there is a straightforward solution, which is the blood sacrifice method.

The blood sacrifice method is an extremely cruel method to crack the natural killing array, which is to leave living sacrifice flags in the positions of the natural killing array flags. The corpse of the sailor just now was obviously the first person to be sacrificed to the flag.

The murderous intent in Ning Cheng's heart rose sharply, he couldn't bear this kind of thing at all. He used to think that these guys brought these seamen to do hard digging, but now it seems that this is not the case at all. If he had known that these people were being used to sacrifice the flag, Ning Cheng would have secretly killed these five cultivators.

These seamen are all ordinary people, just like his current status, they earn some blood, sweat and gold coins by working hard on the ship. But they didn't expect their little lives to be nothing in front of these monks.

Ning Cheng quickened his speed and rushed in, but he stopped quickly. He had already seen forty-nine corpses, which meant that the blood sacrifice was complete.

Ning Cheng calmed down, his consciousness was blocked again, and he checked his position at the same time. This is a damp and dark reef passage under the island, with seven turns and eight turns, and a dead silence. The five Ningzhen cultivators couldn't see a shadow at all. But Ning Cheng could sense that the opening of the passage was indeed caused by the blood sacrifice of the forty-nine seamen.

The sound of "Boom" came from the end of the passage, and the next moment a huge, random natural rock hall appeared in Ning Cheng's consciousness. Without any hesitation, Ning Cheng immediately landed in this natural rock palace.
