Chapter 2855 - Five Elements, Eight Diagrams, Nine Palaces, Breaking the Formation

"The way of yin and yang lies in the five elements. There are the methods of yin five elements and yang five elements."

"Put it on the Bagua, and it corresponds to Dui, Zhen, Kun, Qian, Xun, and Gen, representing metal, wood, and earth!"

"The first three are close to the ground and are Yin, and the last three are close to the sky and are Yang. As for us human cultivators, there are male and female genders, corresponding to Yang and Yin."

Su Shier pondered, expressed his speculation, and gave what he thought was a possible explanation.

Ling Yueshang hurriedly asked again: "Fellow Daoist Tianshan means that if I master the same attainments and secrets of formation as you do."

"You and I, each casting our own spells, will also enter different areas in the three-series array of gold, wood and earth?"

His eyes flickered as he spoke, and he obviously had his own ideas.

"From the current results, this should be the case."

Su Shier nodded but did not finish his words.

Although I have already inclined towards the formation here, it is closely related to the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams.

But facing such a large formation, he didn't dare to say that this was all there was to it.

"Whether it is true or not, at least the yin and yang that Fellow Daoist Tianshan talked about is indeed the most obvious factor."

"But if that's the case, then if it's just one of us, or two men or two women, entering the formation, even if we have amazing attainments in formation, we won't be able to get a glimpse of the full picture of the formation here?"

"Isn't this... too much of a coincidence?"

After pondering for a moment, Ling Yueshang asked again.

If he had only had some vague suspicions before, at this moment, he was even more suspicious of the two people's appearance here.

As he spoke, anger flashed in his eyes.

As a sword cultivator, she is naturally hostile to evil. Naturally, there is a strong resistance to being plotted against by others.

Su Shier thought the same.

Although I don’t know who is behind this.

But after realizing this, he was almost certain that he and Ling Yueshang fell into this formation intentionally by someone.

And the man behind the scenes, the instigator...

It is very likely that he is the owner of the spiritual consciousness that was as vast as the ocean when he fell into the rift of the abyss.

As for the other party's origins and purpose, he knew absolutely nothing about it.

All I can say is that the other party did not take their lives directly, but instead brought them into this formation. He must have some ulterior motive.

"This matter is indeed very strange, but unfortunately the information that the hermit knows is limited."

"Besides, no matter who is behind this, it's all about plotting against you and me."

"What lies ahead now is how to break the formation."

With a light sigh, Su Twelve continued to speak, drawing Ling Yueshang's attention back to the formation itself.

"If this formation is really arranged according to the Five Elements and Eight Diagrams, does Fellow Daoist Tianshan have any way to break it?"

"Or, is there any other understanding of this formation?"

Ling Yueshang continued to speak, knowing that the most urgent task was to break the formation.

As for who is behind this, we can only investigate after we are safely away.

"I can't say anything else about it. From the current investigation, even if the formation here is not based on the Five Elements and Eight Diagrams, it is very likely related to the Nine Palaces."

"The nine palaces are: Qian Palace, Kan Palace, Gen Palace, Zhen Palace, Central Palace, Xun Palace, Li Palace, Kun Palace, and Dui Palace. Among them, the Central Palace is not obvious and is often hidden in the formation as the eye of the formation."

"The remaining eight palaces actually correspond to the five elements and eight trigrams."

"In other words, if we follow the principles of the Five Elements and Eight Diagrams to break the formation, the worst result is that we will not be able to complete the task in one go, but instead enter the area where the center of the formation is located."

"But if we can really reach the center of the formation, breaking it... won't be a difficult task."

Su Twelve's eyes rolled around and he thought quickly as he spoke.

After roughly deducing the layout of the formation, his thoughts became more active.

In his mind, various information related to the formation flashed frequently, and he quickly searched for a way to break the formation.

The Five Elements, the Eight Trigrams, and even Yin and Yang, to be honest, most of the formations are closely related to these.

But if you really look into it, there are many more extensions of this.

Such as Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches, Nine Palaces, and Constellations...

And even if you figure out which one or which ones to follow to arrange the formation.

If you want to break the formation, you either have to find the center of the formation directly.

However, this method is often used by formation masters to break the formation within their sphere of influence, or by immortal cultivators who possess treasures and secret methods to track the eye of the formation.

Even if you are actually in the formation, you may not be able to find it.

After all, the person who sets up the formation will also try to hide the eye of the formation.

In addition, you need to find the principles of the formation and start to break it.

This method is often used by formation masters when they are faced with an opponent whose strength and attainments in formation far exceed their own.

Just like that time in Tiandu, when Su Shier helped Ye Qingxue break the formation of Tiandu forbidden area.

Even out of desperation, he spent a hundred years before he fully understood the forbidden formation and found an opportunity to break it.

However, now that I am in this situation, it is a completely different situation.

Not to mention that he was in a hurry to leave, the various areas in the formation were full of dangers, leaving him no chance to study the details of the formation.

In addition, there is not a single bit of spiritual energy in the formation.

Even if we give him some time, it is still unclear whether he will run out of cultivation resources first or break the formation and leave first.

Fortunately... he had previously observed the layout of the ice cave formation and the changes in the corridor, which allowed him to gain some insights.

Otherwise, he would not have the opportunity to take Ling Yueshang to explore the situation in other formation areas.

You can also avoid the dangerous cold waves and cold air in the ice cave.

This was a series of investigations.

Su Shier had a rough understanding of the overall situation of the formation.

After pondering for a moment, a general idea of ​​breaking the formation slowly emerged in his mind.

After listening to Su Shier's words, Ling Yueshang kept paying attention to the changes in Su Shier's expression.

The situation in the formation was roughly understood and some inferences were made.

She has no problem figuring out what to do next.

But whether or not a way to break the formation can be found depends entirely on Su Twelve.

At this point, I am still a little worried.

Just at this moment, he noticed that Su Twelve's eyes became brighter.

Ling Yueshang immediately spoke up, "Fellow Daoist Tianshan, have you figured out what to do?"

Su Twelve nodded gently and responded: "Whether it is the Eight Trigrams or the Nine Palaces, they all have the attributes of the Five Elements and naturally follow the principles of the Five Elements."

"The eight formation areas in the current formation seem independent, but they are actually closely related."

"If one or two of the array areas are broken, the overall strength of the array will inevitably be unbalanced."

"By then, no matter if the formation is broken directly or there is another secret behind it, you and I will both be hit by the force brought about by the imbalance of the formation."

"What we will face then is not just the threat of the terrifying power of a single formation area!"

The principle is simple, but the difficulty lies in how to do it.

After all, all the formations are nothing more than yin and yang, nothing more than the five elements and eight trigrams, the four images and nine palaces, etc.

It’s just that when it comes to specific formations, it’s often hard to explain the feeling clearly.

Even if it is said, in the actual process, the formation master needs to adapt to the situation based on his own attainments in formation, and it is not set in stone.
