Chapter 282 Cultivate the plank road in the open, and keep the warehouse in the dark!

Tie Zhong
Previously, Chu Xuan was unable to truly see through the reality of the Shanhe formation because of his lack of skill in the formation.
But it's different now, he has obtained the inheritance of the Dao of the Great Emperor Shanhe.
Even in a short period of time, his formation skills cannot reach the level of Emperor Shanhe in one go.
But looking at the grand formation set up by Emperor Shanhe himself, it was like looking at the formation set up by himself.
For Chu Xuan, this formation has no secrets at all.
"Emperor Shanhe really deserves to be a heavenly genius."
"At first, I thought that the Great Array of Mountains and Rivers was the same as ordinary formations, relying on absorbing the aura of heaven and earth to maintain its operation, and adding spirit stones to enhance its power."
"I didn't expect that this great array of mountains and rivers is actually rooted in the land of Zhongzhou, and it is based on the endless mountains and rivers of Zhongzhou. As long as Zhongzhou still exists, this great formation can be maintained forever."
"If Emperor Shanhe had passed away for countless years, the power of this great formation had diminished a lot with the passage of time, coupled with the changes in the terrain in some parts of Zhongzhou over the years, which caused this great formation to fall to the quasi-emperor level, I am afraid that even the Great Emperor If you come here in person, you will probably have a headache in the face of this peerless formation."
Chu Xuan's eyes were filled with amazement.
He couldn't help feeling admiration from the bottom of his heart for Emperor Shanhe's attainments and fantastic ideas.
Although it is said that every great emperor is a person with amazing talents, but such a genius like Shanhe Great Emperor, even among the great emperors, is an existence that is extremely eye-catching.
"But the question now is, how can I crack this extraordinary formation in front of me, and even... take control of this formation into my own hands?"
If it was Emperor Shanhe himself, he would naturally be able to snatch the control of the Shanhe Formation from the Zhongzhou group in minutes.
But Chu Xuan is not the Great Emperor of Mountains and Rivers after all.
In terms of cultivation alone, the difference between the two is far more than one level.
"Although the Shanhe Formation is strong, it is not controlled by Emperor Shanhe himself."
"At present, Zhongzhou is in charge of controlling the great array of mountains and rivers, only a few array masters, plus a large number of ordinary array masters to assist."
"Although the power of the Great Mountain and River Formation was barely exerted, it was far from reaching the peak level."
"What's more, there are many flaws and loopholes in the Great Array of Mountains and Rivers controlled by them."
"And this is where my opportunity lies!"
Chu Xuan stood high in the sky, the wind howled, and his clothes flapped along with it.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, and in those dark eyes, a bright light soon burst out, just like two shining stars in the night sky.
Under his full insight, the incomparably huge mountain and river formation appeared more clearly in front of his eyes.
In Chu Xuan's eyes, the mountains, rivers and rivers in the vast land of Zhongzhou are like lines drawn with pen and ink, criss-crossing and connected into a whole by the great array of mountains and rivers.
To be honest, there is actually not one Great Array of Mountains and Rivers, but four!
Not only is there a large mountain and river formation facing the portal of the Eastern Wasteland, but there is also a large mountain and river formation facing the three directions of Northern Xinjiang, Nanman, and Xihai to block the void.
These four mountains and rivers are separated and closely connected, and they are actually a whole.
They are based on the entire Central State, and at the same time fully protect the entire Central State.
If Emperor Shanhe was still alive, such a defense could be said to be impenetrable.
However, Emperor Shanhe had passed away after all, and no one in Zhongzhou could fully display the power of the Shanhe formation.
According to Chu Xuan's observation, among the four large mountain and river formations, only the one facing Donghuang has been pushed to its peak.
More than half of the energy provided by Zhongzhou's endless mountains and rivers comes from Shanhe Pass.
In addition to Shanhe Pass, the defensive power of the large array facing the northern border is not low.
Obviously, because the monster race in Northern Xinjiang has now taken refuge in Donghuang, Zhongzhou is also on guard against Northern Xinjiang.
In comparison, the defensive forces facing the Nanman and the West Sea are much weaker.
It's not that Zhongzhou doesn't want to increase the defense in these two directions, it's because of its limited strength.
Being able to defend the Eastern Wilderness with all its strength, and the northern border by the way, is already the limit of what they can do at present.
As for Nanman and Xihai, perhaps from Zhongzhou's point of view, these two places did not have the guts to tease Zhongzhou's tiger whiskers.
From the beginning to the end, there is only one enemy in Zhongzhou's eyes, and that is Donghuang!
Even the Northern Xinjiang Monster Race is incidental, but in fact they don't pay attention at all.
"If we had known about this situation early, maybe we wouldn't have to suffer for four months in front of Shanhe Pass."
"However, it's not too late."
A confident smile appeared on the corner of Chu Xuan's mouth, and then his figure disappeared.
……
Eastern Wilderness camp.
Representatives of the eight giants are all present.
"What, enter Zhongzhou from the direction of Nanman?"
Hearing Chu Xuan's sudden plan, everyone present couldn't help being stunned.
"It's not a large-scale attack from the direction of Nanman. The army remains still, attracting Zhongzhou's attention. I will lead a part of the people to sneak into Zhongzhou from the direction of Nanman."
In the two directions of Nanman and Xihai, Chu Xuan finally chose Nanman.
Because in this way, he also had the opportunity to surrender the barbarians along the way, thus gathering the luck of the southern barbarians.
Even if Nanman's luck cannot be compared with that of Donghuang, it should not be much worse than that of Beijiang.
As long as he gathers the luck of the southern barbarians, his cultivation should be able to improve again.
In comparison, more than 90.00% of the West Sea is ocean, which means that there are few people in the true sense. The power of luck is obviously much less, and the attraction to Chu Xuan is also greatly reduced.
"Are you cultivating the plank road in the open, and you are hiding in the dark?"
The old man Jian quickly realized, and couldn't help asking, "Then why didn't you attack from the direction of Beijiang?"
Compared with the Southern Man who has been not very law-abiding, the northern border has been taken by them, and the conditions in all aspects are much better.
"Since you think Northern Xinjiang is more suitable, do you think those people in Zhongzhou are defenseless?"
Chu Xuan asked back with a smile.
The old man Jian was stunned for a moment, and quickly understood what Chu Xuan meant, but he still couldn't help shaking his head: "Although that's the case, the risk is still too great."
In fact, Shanhe Pass has been unable to be attacked for a long time, and it is not that no one has proposed to divide the troops before.
But in the end it was rejected by everyone.
Because the division of troops is small, it is of little effect. Even if they enter Zhongzhou, they will be besieged by countless powerful people in Zhongzhou.
If there were too many troops, it would be impossible to hide it from Zhongzhou, and Zhongzhou might take the opportunity to massacre them, and that would be even more meaningless.
"That's right, although your strength is amazing, Saint of Absolute Beginning, there is no need to risk your life."
"That is, those people in Zhongzhou have no bottom line. Once they find out that you have sneaked into Zhongzhou, they will definitely join forces to deal with you first."
"That's what I mean too. Even if we can't win Zhongzhou, it's just that. Anyway, we didn't suffer a loss in this war. At worst, we can keep it as it is."
Everyone quickly spoke up.
Seeing this, Chu Xuan secretly sighed.
He could understand everyone's thoughts.
On the one hand, I really don't want him to take risks.
On the other hand, they have been unable to attack for more than four consecutive months, and most of their morale has been consumed.
After all, it was like this for so many years before, and this time they didn't suffer anyway, and they even took over Beijiang by the way, even if they kept it as it was, they could already accept it in their hearts.
But Chu Xuan didn't want to stop the war.
Because he still wants to win Zhongzhou, and then gather Zhongzhou's luck.
If you miss this opportunity, you don't know when the next time will be.
Of course, to be honest, it doesn't mean that everyone has retreated.
In the final analysis, it is because there is no hope in sight.
If there is hope, no one is willing to give up.
Because winning Zhongzhou is far more profitable than winning Northern Xinjiang.
Moreover, Donghuang and Zhongzhou have been fighting for so many years. If there is a chance to win Zhongzhou, who would not want to accomplish this feat?
Thinking of this, Chu Xuan no longer concealed it, and took the initiative to explain:
"It's actually like this. I have a friend. If he can enter Zhongzhou, he is very sure that he can destroy the Great Array of Mountains and Rivers, and even... hold the Great Array of Mountains and Rivers in our hands!"
"..."
Hearing this, everyone present suddenly raised their heads.
Then they looked at Chu Xuan in unison.
Each eye is full of unbelievable... and unimaginable hot light.
But it's different now, he has obtained the inheritance of the Dao of the Great Emperor Shanhe.
Even in a short period of time, his formation skills cannot reach the level of Emperor Shanhe in one go.
But looking at the grand formation set up by Emperor Shanhe himself, it was like looking at the formation set up by himself.
