"Now that I have exhausted my gambling instincts, and now that I have recognized such an amazing genius as Brother Guo, there is no fun in competing anymore."
The God of War cleared his throat and said loudly: "I announce that the next competition is cancelled, and everyone is free to move around."
"Ouch~~~"
All the monks could not help but cheer, finally no longer having to worry about their lives.
The Martial God smiled helplessly, pointed at the monks flying around in the west and said: "Look at how something like this can possibly reach the immortal world."
Guo Huai also agreed with this sentence. Cultivation to immortality is not only a competition of strength, but also of character. If there are loopholes in character, it will naturally be difficult to survive the thunder tribulation.
Not to mention becoming an immortal.
Wu Shen and Guo Huai had a very happy relationship. They talked about mysteries and seemed to regret meeting each other so late. Three days passed like this.
Guo Huai was worried about Heilong and asked to leave.
"Brother Guo, after I return to the plane of the sea of clouds, I will ascend to the immortal world. We will see you in the immortal world then."
Guo Huai solemnly clasped his fists and said, "Okay, see you in the fairy world!"
The two high-fived each other.
After bidding farewell to the God of War, Guo Huai began to fly west, hoping to find the entrance to other small worlds. He just wanted to find a tiny entrance in this vast sea. It was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
"Guo Huai!"
A familiar voice came from the distance. This was Nangong Yao, whom he had not seen for several days. After the arena competition, Guo Huai and the God of War had a very happy chat. Nangong Yao did not disturb him. He and other monks went west to look for him. of opportunity.
He discovered a strange place and was about to find a reliable person to explore with him. Who would have thought that he would meet Guo Huai not long after flying, and it seemed that they were destined to be together.
"senior!"
Guo Huai cupped his fists and said.
"Hey, you are in the Mahayana stage now. According to the rules of our world of immortality, we should treat you as equals."
Nangong Yao thought for a moment and said, "Just call me Taoist Brother Nangong."
Guo Huai then shouted again: "Brother Nangong Dao!"
"Guo Huai, you came at just the right time." Nangong Yao paused and said, "I found a weird place and I wanted to explore it with you. I didn't expect you to come here by yourself."
Guo Huai also suddenly became interested and asked: "What's so weird?"
"I found a strange stone statue on the bottom of the sea. It looks like a formation."
Nangong Yao said confidently: "There must be a treasure here. I am worried that I am in danger alone, so I want to ask you to go explore it together."
For a while, Guo Huai couldn't find the passage to other small worlds, so he and Nangong Yao might as well go explore this mysterious stone statue.
"Okay, let's go explore it!"
After Guo Huai agreed, he and Nangong Yao flew into the sea, and their Mahayana breaths frightened away countless monsters in the sea.
After swimming under the sea for a short time, Guo Huai saw a group of strange stone statues in a submarine canyon from a distance.
The two swam over, and in front of them were ten stone statues that were more than ten feet high. Each of them was carved in a flexible, vivid, and lifelike way. They were either domineering monsters, ferocious demons, or mighty generals.
These statues that seem to contain ancient charm seem to have been standing here for millions of years, but they are still intact.
Guo Huai noticed the charm of the law on this miraculous statue, but it was just a vague feeling, but he could not accurately capture it.
"I don't know how old these stone statues are? How come they don't look decayed?"
Nangong Yao looked at the exquisite stone statues and couldn't help but sigh.
"And the formation here is also extremely wonderful. After so many years, the spiritual power is still not exhausted."
Guo Huai looked at it for a long time and said thoughtfully: "I'm afraid the formation here does not rely on spiritual stones to operate."
"The formation does not rely on spiritual stones to maintain its operation. Does it rely on immortal stones?"
Nangong Yao said with a smile.
"There is no fluctuation of immortal energy here. I guess this formation relies on the power of law to operate."
Guo Huai explained.
"The power of law?"
Nangong Yao stared at these many stone statues for a long time, and finally shook his head helplessly and said: "I don't see any trace of laws here."
Guo Huai had taken a few steps before, when a burst of blue light suddenly flashed from the stone statue, sending Guo Huai flying away.
The moment the light curtain rose, Guo Huai clearly captured the slight flow of law power on the three stone statues. Although it was very light, Guo Huai still noticed it.
"If we want to get inside, we need to crack the formation outside first. If we want to crack the formation, we need to understand the power of the law on the stone sculpture."
Nangong Yao frowned and asked worriedly: "How long will it take?"
"It may take three days, or it may take a lifetime to understand."
Guo Huai gave an answer that was not an answer.
Nangong Yao shook his head and sighed: "We only have three years on the road of trial. It has been almost two months now. We can't waste all our time here."
"Let's comprehend it for a while first! If we can't crack it in the end, we can explore other places."
Guo Huai thought for a while and said.
In the following time, Guo Huai observed the stone statues outside. The nine stone statues had different images. Although he didn't see anything in a short time, Guo Huai firmly believed that everything must be connected.
Especially the ten artificially carved stone sculptures. Since this is a formation, it must be connected and regular. As long as he has enough time and patience, Guo Huai believes that he will be able to break this formation.
A month later, the confused Nangong Yao said hello to Guo Huai and flew away. He was going to hunt for treasures elsewhere. The time on the trial road was limited, and he could not waste all his time on these stone sculptures.
Three months later, Guo Huai had vaguely noticed a pattern. One day, he suddenly felt ethereal. He suddenly thought that there were ten small worlds on the road to trial, and the thoughts in his mind exploded with a bang.
He instantly understood the meaning of these nine stone sculptures.
This humanoid sculpture with an angry beard and raised hair represents fire, which is the power of the law of fire.
This mermaid-like sculpture with human body and fish tail represents water, which is the law of water.
This statue, with its hair standing upright like an ape, represents ice, which is the power of ice.
This lion-like sculpture with a pair of wings on its ribs represents wind, which is the law of wind.
This sculpture is covered with stars and moon...
~~~~~~~
Guo Huai realized clearly at this moment that these ten stone sculptures represented the ten small worlds on the road of trial. These ten worlds should represent the power of the nine laws.
Wood, fire, earth, metal, water, wind, thunder, ice, light, and darkness.
This means that this small world operates on the power of ten laws.
