I Killed Gods and Demons in Song Dynasty

Chapter 80: Shocking Gate
Golden light is shining everywhere and sword energy is everywhere!
Bai Yunrui chopped off the shadow of his father, the golden-haired mouse Bai Yutang, with a single blow of his sword, without any more hesitation in his heart.

Since there is no way out, let's just kill everyone here!
No matter how thick or strange the black fog is, the energy it contains will eventually have an end. As long as you eliminate the ghosts and monsters it condenses one by one, you will be able to see through the illusion and find a way out!

Once he has made up his mind, let alone the fact that these are just illusions of the first realm, even if the king of heaven comes, he will not be able to stop him at all!

As Bai Yunrui was thinking this, he suddenly found an arm reaching out, with five pointed fingers, as if trying to grab his collar.

Humph, playing tricks is so boring!
He swung the golden dragon scales in his hand like lightning, and the sword energy gathered, ready to chop.

Just as the mighty force was about to be unleashed, someone shouted:

"General Bai, stop it. Don't chop. I'm Li Qingyun!"

The voice was clear, completely different from the strange and sharp sounds that had appeared before.

Bai Yunrui hesitated slightly, retracted his sword energy, and asked loudly:

"Show yourself and explain yourself clearly! Otherwise, don't blame me for being merciless!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a tall figure walked out of the black fog and came in front of him. It was Li Qingyun.

Just listen to him say:
"I came here to look for you. I heard from Brother Han that you came in alone, and I was a little worried."

Seeing that the man opposite him looked sincere and spoke in an orderly manner, Bai Yunrui believed him a little, but he did not relax at all. He still held the hilt tightly and asked:
"How did you find me? Are you faster than me?"

Li Qingyun smiled slightly:
"General Bai, this place is only this big, why do you need to be fast? You are just trapped in the formation, going around in circles."

This is actually a formation. No wonder I couldn't find a way out. It turns out I have been circling in the room... Bai Yunrui suddenly realized what Li Qingyun meant and asked:

"Do you know how to break the formation?"

Li Qingyun smiled and said:
"It's just so-so. I'm just particularly good at finding people, and I have a little knowledge of the 64 hexagrams. That's all.

"This is a formation based on the eight trigrams, with eight gates: Rest, Life, Injury, Du, Scenery, Death, Shock, and Open. We are at the 'Shock Gate', which is used to incite chaos and set ambushes."

Baiyun Rich said:
"According to what you said, the other people trapped here are also nearby? Why didn't I hear any sound?"

Li Qingyun shrugged:

"I don't know about that. Maybe this formation has the ability to block sounds and thoughts. Maybe we are not in the same sect, so we can't communicate with each other. It was only when I walked into the Jingmen that I heard the sound of your precious sword breaking through the air and judged that you were here."

In fact, he first used the method of divination and super-sensory perception to determine Bai Yunrui's location, and then walked to Jingmen according to the direction. At this point, he told an insignificant lie, concealing his ability and the truth of divination to find someone.

Bai Yunrui naturally couldn't hear any flaws, and said in full agreement:

"That makes sense. If that's the case, let's go find other people without further delay."

I don’t know the others, so I can’t tell their locations… Li Qingyun rolled his eyes and said:

"I'll take you out first, and then we'll find a way to find out where the others are. Grab the rope on me and follow my steps. Don't make any mistakes. The eight gates here can change at any time. If you make a mistake, you'll be teleported to another place. It will be troublesome to find you then."

He knew very well that Bai Yunrui was proud and arrogant and might not be willing to listen to orders from a newcomer like him, so he deliberately made the matter sound more serious to prevent this guy from running around.

Bai Yunrui didn't have so many thoughts. He had been practicing martial arts all his life and had never dabbled in other miscellaneous studies, let alone formations. Seeing that Li Qingyun was in command, he decided to follow his command.

Hearing this, he nodded quickly, grabbed one end of the rope and said, "I'm ready, you lead the way."

Li Qingyun nodded at him, turned around with his back to Bai Yunrui, divined the location of the exit, then took one step to the left, two steps to the right, and walked in a twisting manner.

Bai Yunrui also followed his example and walked closely. After taking a few steps, he soon saw the wooden door and returned to Gaosheng Inn.

Fang Shuan was overjoyed to see Li Qingyun and Bai Yunrui come out safely, and stepped forward to ask, "Qingyun, uncle, are you two okay?"

Bai Yunrui sighed:
"I am so ashamed! This time, I am grateful to Brother Qingyun for his unique attainments in battle formations. Otherwise, I don't know how long I would be trapped in this damn place."

Fang Shuan heard this, stared at Li Qingyun with eyes wide open and said:

"Brother Qingyun, you are really capable! There are not many people that my uncle admires. Apart from my godfather, you are the second one!"

Lao Fang, the way you address me is so confusing. There is a big generation gap between us... Li Qingyun muttered to himself and didn't want to argue with him. He was thinking about how to rescue other people.

Sure enough, Bai Yunrui nodded and said:
"Qingyun, think of another way to rescue the others."

Li Qingyun thought about it, and suddenly said while holding his stomach:

"Wait, let me go to the bathroom first, then I'll think of a solution!"

After saying this, he ran away and went downstairs to find the toilet.

Fang Shuan looked at Han Tianjin:
"Is it because he ate too much at Zuiyanglou last night and couldn't digest it? But he just fought and didn't eat much..."

……

Li Qingyun pinched his nose and walked into the toilet of Gaosheng Inn. He found an empty single room and looked around to see that there was no one around. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.

The fact that he possessed the power of divination involved that secret god, and he had no intention of sharing it with anyone else, not even his colleagues in Kaifeng Prefecture.

If he were really regarded as a follower of an evil god, not only would he not be able to serve as an official, he might even be thrown into prison.

Fang Shuan and Han Tianjin's cultivation was not high, so it was not difficult to hide the secret from them, but with Bai Yunrui, who was at the fourth level, by his side, he thought it would be safer to find a secluded place to do divination.

Quickly collecting his thoughts, Li Qingyun carefully thought about the angle and method of divination.

Firstly, he didn't know the trapped people, and secondly, he didn't have their personal belongings, so he had no way of calculating their specific locations in the formation in the room, let alone rescuing them.

After all, he was not a real formation master, he just used the divination technique to see the true appearance of the formation.

But apart from this, there are other ways.

That is... breaking the formation!
He had thought it through clearly long ago. No matter what the purpose of the person who set up the formation was, it didn't make sense to choose a room in an inn as the location. That was too hasty.

This would not only make it easy for people to discover the location of the formation, but would also expose one's identity. After all, there are many people here and anyone could easily find out who had booked Room No. 3.

The only reasonable explanation he could come up with was that the person who set up the formation might have had some urgent reasons and had to set up the formation in a hurry, resulting in no time to choose the perfect location.

This means that the formation itself is likely to be incomplete or contain flaws, and breaking the formation may not be as difficult as imagined.

Of course, there are many experts in Bianliang City, and it is not difficult to hire a master of formation. However, if things are delayed for too long, the people trapped inside may accidentally step on the death door and be in danger.

Now that he has encountered this, Li Qingyun decided to try it himself first.

This is the best idea he can think of to save people at the moment. As for whether it will work, he naturally has to rely on divination to determine.

So, Li Qingyun continued to meditate:

"The weakness of the formation in Room No. 3 and the method to break it..."
