Chapter 276: Formation Within a Formation

Although Old Master Tang’s words were a bit infuriating, the three of them couldn’t deny the possibility when they thought of the twelve chess formations they couldn’t break even after fifteen minutes!

And they even felt that this possibility was very high!

It would be embarrassing if they were really trapped in the formation and couldn’t get out!

The four of them hesitated for a moment.

After a while, Old Master Guo decisively turned around and went to challenge the formation set up by his disciple.

The other two followed suit decisively!

They couldn’t afford to lose face!

Old Master Tang thought that everyone being trapped inside would also give his disciple a lot of face, and added, “Although I can’t break some of my disciple’s formations now, isn’t the formation eye set up by Old Master Guo? Old Master Guo should know what kind of tricks it can conjure up!”

The three of them paused.

Eh? That seems to make sense!

The two of them looked at Old Master Guo.

Old Master Tang also looked at Old Master Guo.

Old Master Guo: “. . .”

The three of them were blatantly hinting with their eyes that they really wanted to see the formation set up by Xingnong, but they were worried that they wouldn’t be able to break it and would be trapped, losing face!

And then they all pinned their hopes on him!

Or rather, he had already set up the formation eye, so if he couldn’t break the formation, he would be the one losing face!

Old Master Guo wanted to curse when he thought of this!

But, oh well!

He also wanted to see what kind of formation Princess Xingnong had set up using the formation eye he had set!

Old Master Guo turned around and said heroically, “Let’s go!”

The three of them followed happily!

They couldn’t help it, they were interested in formations all their lives!

If they didn’t go and challenge it, it would be like something was constantly scratching at their hearts, making them extremely uncomfortable!

So the four of them walked into the formation excitedly and nervously.

What welcomed them was an old hen clucking.

The four of them: “. . .”

Old Master Tang: “My precious disciple even found a chicken to be the gatekeeper! This old hen is quite fat, just looking at the plump and shiny feathers on its legs, it looks delicious!”

The three of them: “. . .”

The old hen clucked a few times when it saw them, then turned and ran, disappearing into the mist in an instant.

Old Master Tang looked at the disappearing old hen and said, “Later, I’ll ask my disciple to slaughter this chicken and make it into a snack for me to go with my wine! Let me tell you, my disciple is good at formations, but she’s best at cooking! Besides that, her arithmetic is also very good! When I first met her, her handwriting was like earthworms crawling! Now, her handwriting is simply the best of the best! And…”

The three of them said in unison: “Shut up!”

Are we still going to challenge the formation or not!

Showing off his wealth!

No, showing off his disciple!

Who doesn’t have a disciple? What’s there to show off!

The three of them ignored him and walked straight into the mist in the direction where the hen had disappeared.

At first, no matter how they walked, it was all the same, usually after walking in for a while, they would be able to figure out the way.

But because this was a formation set up by Xingnong, everyone walked relatively slowly, carefully paying attention to the surrounding scenery.

But apart from the three companions in front of them, they couldn’t see anything.

However, they could hear the faint crowing of chickens and the gurgling of flowing water, and sometimes they could even hear the “crack” of dry firewood burning.

The four of them walked casually in the mist, with the strength of the four of them, as long as they walked around, they would usually be able to find the exit.

But after walking around and around, the four of them were still in the mist formation.

Old Master Guo said to Old Master Tang, “Old Master Tang, the mist formation, this is not your forte, don’t tell me you can’t get out later! I’ll give you a little less than fifteen minutes!”

Old Master Tang wouldn’t accept it: “Can you get out just because you’re good at it? Nine out of ten times I can’t break through my disciple’s mist formation!”

✿✿✿

The three of them: “. . .”

Xu Yan snorted coldly, “How did you become a master? ”

Old Master Tang looked smug: “A great master produces outstanding disciples! The waves behind drive on those before. I’m a very qualified master! This way, I faintly hear chickens crowing!”

The four of them followed the sound of the chickens crowing, passed through layers of mist, and entered a dense forest, the forest was shaded by green trees, filled with the fragrance of birds and flowers, the fragmented sunlight passed through the tall trees and fell, casting mottled shadows, the environment was quite beautiful!

But the four of them knew that this was just an illusion.

What startled everyone was that this illusionary forest was a bit too big, they had been in it for half an hour and still hadn’t figured out the way.

The three of them looked at Old Master Tang.

After all, it was he who led them out of the mist formation just now, well no, it was he who led them astray into this forest formation!

He was responsible for leading them out!

Old Master Tang waved his hand: “I’m not good at this wood formation! Old Master Guo, Old Xu, you guys do it!”

Xu Yan looked at Old Master Guo: “Old Master Guo, how big is that open space?”

It didn’t make sense, how come they hadn’t found the direction after walking for half an hour?

Old Master Guo: “Not big. We’ve encountered a formation within a formation.”

Xu Yan: “. . .”

What the hell is a formation within a formation? A little brat who had only been studying formations for a few months could actually design a formation within a formation?

The formation master from the Yan Kingdom looked at Old Master Tang: “Old Master Tang, are you sure your disciple isn’t your grandmaster? Could it be that your grandmaster has been reincarnated? ”

Old Master Tang took out a small wooden comb and combed his precious beard: “Maybe! I’m quite amazing, my grandmaster reincarnated and became my disciple! Then wouldn’t I have become the master of my grandmaster? You should address me as the grandmaster of the grandmaster!”

The three of them: “. . .”

Get lost!

Then the four of them spent an hour before they walked out of the forest and entered a sea of fire!

A wave of heat hit them, and all four of them couldn’t help but curse.

Old Master Xu’s beard was almost burned off, and he quickly dodged to the side in fright.

The four of them also dodged the blazing flames in a flash.

Xu Yan looked at Old Master Guo: “How many formations within a formation can the formation eye you set up accommodate?”

It had been over an hour!

Old Master Guo touched his slightly burned beard, the air still filled with the unique smell of burning: “Who knows? It depends on how much the formation setter knows, right?!”

Old Master Guo looked at Old Master Tang.

Xu Yan asked Old Master Tang again: “How many formations within a formation can your disciple set up?”

They thought that once they got out of the forest, they would have broken the formation!

Who knew there would be a sea of fire!

Old Master Tang shrugged: “I don’t know, every day I see my disciple, I feel like she knows a little more today! Maybe even an hour ago and an hour later, her formations have made a qualitative leap! Today, I haven’t spoken to my disciple for several hours!”

The three of them: “. . .”

They wished they could just push him into the sea of fire!

What kind of person is this!

Infuriating!

After fifteen minutes, Old Master Tang was so hot that he took off his clothes, and the other three followed suit, taking off their clothes as well!

Old Master Tang thought of a sea of fire formation that Xingnong had designed, and he decisively told the other three about it for their reference.

After more than an hour, the four of them felt like the blood in their bodies was about to be evaporated by the sea of fire, and they finally found the exit by combining Old Master Tang’s fire formation with reality, but as soon as they went out, they were met with a world of ice and snow!

A gust of icy wind blew past. The four of them, who had just come out of the high-temperature environment, almost suffocated!

“Fuck!” someone cursed.
