Chapter 490: Chain Array

It was already late in the evening when he came out of the auction hall. There were fewer stalls on both sides of the street. Obviously, many of them had closed their stalls, or they did not set up stalls today and went to participate in the auction.

Lin Chen shook his head and walked directly to the Xiancheng Inn, but at this moment, Lin Chen suddenly felt a chilling gaze from behind.

"Huh?" Lin Chen narrowed his eyes and looked back involuntarily.

Since he came to Xiancheng, he has been watched almost every moment. After all, it is rare for a warrior with the peak cultivation of the True Dao Realm to come to Xiancheng, but he is most likely to become the target of others to kill and rob treasures. Therefore, many people look at Lin Chen intentionally or unintentionally, and his soul power is extremely powerful. He can easily detect the gazes of the people around him. For this kind of gaze, Lin Chen has long been accustomed to it and ignored it.

However, the gaze he felt just now was like being warned by a poisonous snake, lingering around him, making people palpitate.

He turned his head and looked behind him, just in time to see the white-haired old man looking at him with resentment, his expression was indescribably vicious, as if he would not stop until he killed Lin Chen.

"It's him!" A flash of surprise flashed in Lin Chen's eyes.

Lin Chen still remembered what happened in the Fenglei Mountains that day. If it weren't for the appearance of the seventh-level monster, I'm afraid he, Xia Lan and the little guy would not be able to escape the pursuit of the white-haired old man. However, Lin Chen didn't expect that the white-haired old man would actually appear in the Immortal City. Similarly, Lin Chen was also a little surprised. Since the white-haired old man was in the Immortal City, why did the red-haired old man, as the white-haired old man's brother, try every means to rob Lin Chen's invitation to the Immortal City.

The red-haired old man obviously didn't know Lin Chen, but just happened to meet Lin Chen and learned that he had an invitation to the Immortal City, so he took action. But Lin Chen didn't know that the red-haired old man didn't know that the white-haired old man was in the Immortal City, otherwise, he could have asked the white-haired old man to help him bid for some treasures he needed.

"Discovered! This kid has such a keen perception." The white-haired old man was slightly startled when he saw Lin Chen see him. You know, there are many people around who are paying attention to Lin Chen. He is just one of them who is paying attention to Lin Chen. He is not noticeable, but he is still noticed by Lin Chen.

Since he has been discovered, the white-haired old man does not want to hide anymore! He looked at Lin Chen coldly, his expression was extremely gloomy.

"Lin Chen, dare to kill my brother, I swear, you will die miserably!" The white-haired old man spoke coldly, thinking of the unwillingness in the eyes of the red-haired old man when he died, his expression became more and more ferocious, and he wanted to cut Lin Chen into pieces immediately.

At this moment, the auction had just ended, and the surroundings were very noisy, but Lin Chen's soul power was so strong that he could hear the white-haired old man's voice clearly no matter how small it was, no matter how noisy it was.

"You'd better pray that you don't meet me outside the fairy city, otherwise you will die miserably." Lin Chen sneered.

Lin Chen is now much stronger than when he was in the Wind and Thunder Mountains. His sword intent of time and sword intent of destruction have made great progress. Even if he is a strong man in the early stage of Baoyuan Realm, Lin Chen is confident that he can fight him.

If he meets the white-haired old man outside the Immortal City, he doesn't mind teaching him a lesson.

Lin Chen can clearly hear the words of the white-haired old man, and the latter can also hear Lin Chen's words clearly. The white-haired old man was stunned when he heard the words, and his expression became a little angry. He wanted to speak, but when he thought of the situation when Lin Chen killed the red-haired old man, he couldn't help but swallow the words in his mouth.

Although the strength of the red-haired old man is not as good as his, it is not much weaker. Lin Chen can easily kill the red-haired old man, so it may not be so easy for him to defeat Lin Chen.

Just when the white-haired old man thought for a moment, Lin Chen had turned around and mixed into the crowd, and soon disappeared.

Seeing this scene, the white-haired old man's expression became more gloomy, like a leopard that was defeated, and he was furious.

…

In the Xiancheng Inn.

Lin Chen sat cross-legged on the bed, flipped his hand, and took out an old book with only a dozen pages. It was the ancient book of formations that Lin Chen bought at the auction with thirty low-grade Yuanshi.

According to the host's explanation, this ancient book of formations records hundreds of ancient formations, and some of them have been lost, which is quite precious. Of course, this kind of precious ancient book of formations is absolutely priceless if it is placed in the hands of a formation master, but it is worthless in front of a warrior who is not interested in the way of formations.

Lin Chen read it carefully.

There are a total of 358 formations recorded in this ancient book of formations, from simple to difficult, covering all kinds of formations, but Lin Chen did not see these formations in the formation notes given to him by Old Yan.

"Old Yan has not been studying the art of formations for a long time, and the formations he studied are also the more common ones nowadays. He is not familiar with ancient formations like this." Lin Chen shook his head. The formations and methods of arranging formations in the current art of formations are very different from those in ancient times. Naturally, Lin Chen could not see the same formations in Old Yan's formation notes as in this ancient book of formations.

"Chain formations, a chain formation with less than 30 formations is a low-level formation, a chain formation with more than 30 formations and less than 68 formations is a mid-level formation, and a chain formation with more than 68 formations is a high-level chain formation. This formation can arrange up to 108 formations at the same time."

The chain formation, also known as the formation within the formation, is one of the most difficult formations to arrange. It is also a trinity formation of attack, defense and siege. Lin Chen once encountered this formation in the snowy night valley in the land of inheritance. At that time, Lin Chen Chen and the little guy were trapped inside. If the little guy hadn't happened to hit the eye of the formation, and the formation was too old at that time, many places were incomplete, so one person and one beast escaped from it. .

It was at the place of inheritance that Lin Chen saw a large number of formations arranged by the ancients, and that's why he wanted to study the art of formations. Now when he saw the arrangement of serial formations in the ancient books on formations, he was immediately attracted .

"A chain formation composed of one hundred and eight formations, even a strong man in the Nirvana Realm may die if he is trapped in it!" After reading the introduction of this formation, Lin Chen suddenly became a little excited.

However, it is not that easy to arrange a total of 108 formations and combine 108 individual formations to form a chain formation. Lin Chen can only barely arrange a simple formation now. It’s just law.

"Ho ho." When the little guy saw Lin Chen immersed in the study of formations, he immediately lay down on the pile of spiritual stones without hesitation, and once again began to absorb the spiritual energy and vitality of heaven and earth to practice.

Originally, the little guy's cultivation level was already at the top level of the sixth level, and he was only half a step away from reaching the seventh level. However, because he came to the fairy city, the little guy also absorbed a lot of heaven and earth energy, which also delayed his breakthrough.

After all, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the vitality of heaven and earth are two different energies. Warriors below the realm of Baoyuan realm absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, while warriors above the realm of Baoyuan realm absorb the vitality of heaven and earth.

The little raging bear absorbs the vitality of heaven and earth when it is still at the top level of the sixth level. Of course, it is very difficult to absorb and refine it. Precisely because it starts to practice with the vitality of heaven and earth, what the little guy needs to break through is not only the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, but also a huge amount of energy. The vitality of heaven and earth, fortunately this is a fairy city, and the vitality of heaven and earth in fairy city is richer than other places.

While Lin Chen was immersed in studying the art of formations and the little guy was practicing hard, the night passed in the blink of an eye.

Early the next morning.

Lin Chen looked at the ancient formation book in his hand, his eyes were red and his expression was excited: "Okay, okay, okay! So that's it, this is how the combination of serial formations works."

Last night, I saw that the chain formation was formed by a combination of many formations. Lin Chen was thinking about the principle behind the combination of formations.

After a night of exploration and research, Lin Chen finally figured out the key.

"There is a relationship between formations. To put it simply, the arrangement structure of the formation can be divided into lines. An formation with hundreds of lines is extremely complicated. However, a single formation with a continuous array has at least 100 lines. There must be hundreds of them, and then the main lines of the lines in these separate formations must be connected to the main lines of another separate formation.”

"The end of the formation must also correspond to the beginning line of another separate formation..."

Lin Chen couldn't conceal the excitement in his heart and murmured to himself: "In this way, it will be very cumbersome and complicated to arrange a chain of one hundred and eight formations, but once the arrangement is successful, it will be considered a formation." Master, it is almost impossible to find a solution to the chain formation, unless he can crack all the one hundred and eight formations of the chain formation, and these individual formations are very complicated, and the formation eyes are almost impossible to find..."

No wonder, this formation dares to say that once it is successfully deployed, even a strong person in the Nirvana realm may die if he is trapped in it.

Lin Chen took a deep breath and closed the ancient formation book with a joyful expression. He only read one formation in the ancient book about this formation that night. Lin Chen still has a long way to go if he wants to successfully arrange it. And you must know that this ancient formation is recorded in the ancient book. More than three hundred formations!

If Lin Chen fully understands these three hundred kinds of formations, then even if he knows nothing about formations before, he can still become a master of formations. The ancient formations and ancient books captured by thirty low-grade Yuan stones , absolutely worth it!

While he was thinking in his mind, suddenly, a shocking aura erupted and enveloped the entire room.

"Huh?" Lin Chen felt this momentum, and his first reaction was to look at the little storm bear.

At this moment, the little tyrant bear was lying on the ground, his body surrounded by rich spiritual energy and vitality of heaven and earth that almost turned into water droplets. The little guy was absorbing these spiritual energy and vitality with his mouth wide open, and a burst of energy burst out from his body. There was an extremely powerful momentum. This momentum was so strong that even Lin Chen felt a little pressure.

"This guy finally made a breakthrough?" Lin Chen had a smile in his eyes.

The little guy's situation at this moment is obviously about to break through to level seven!

Two months ago, the little raging bear was about to break through. Now that he has been in Fairy City for a few days, the little guy finally broke through to level seven.
