Chapter 5666 5664-Testing The Lightning
"LAN Guzha, let's continue. There's a Thunder gathering array here. I'll let you try it out when we find it." Lin Yi didn't have any intention of hiding anything and told LAN Guzha.
LAN Guzha asked doubtfully,"boss, how did I try? Go and see if you'll be struck by lightning?"
"If you put it that way ... There's no problem!" Lin Yi smiled faintly at LAN Guzha.
"Boss, can I choose not to try?" LAN Guzha's mind flashed with the image of himself being charred black and smoking from the lightning strikes. He immediately asked with a bitter face and caution.
Lin Yi nodded,"of course you can. It's your right. But if you don't want to try, you can go back to the island now. You don't want to get hit by lightning!"
"Boss, where is that Thunder gathering array? I'm feeling a little itchy, and I want to go and try what it feels like to take a bath in lightning!" LAN Guzha's expression was one of duty-bound as he looked left and right in search of that damned Thunder gathering array. Compared to returning to flood Dragon Island, it seemed like being struck by lightning was completely acceptable!
Lin Yi chuckled and shook his head. Would this guy not leave the formation after knowing the benefits of the lightning?
As he spoke, Lin Yi brought LAN Guzha to another rock wall. He used his Qi to tap a few times, and the rock wall rippled, revealing a passage.
The book did mention how to enter the formation, and Lin Yi followed the instructions and found the node easily.
But what Lin Yi didn't understand was how Zhao Jing and Yin chencheng got into the Thunder gathering formation. If it was someone who didn't understand formations, they shouldn't even be able to find the entrance to this passage. Could it be that they had accidentally found it again?
However, it was also possible that the formation had been in disrepair for a long time and had become loose. It was possible that they could break in without using special methods.
As soon as he stepped into the tunnel, a bolt of lightning struck on his head. If it landed, Lin Yi's essence spirit would suffer and might collapse.
Fortunately, Lin Yi was prepared. A similar lightning appeared above his head, cutting off the previous lightning and dissipating it with a few cracking sounds.
LAN Guzha pulled his head back. He could feel that the lightning wasn't enough to threaten his life, but it would definitely hurt if it hit his body. If Lin Yi didn't insist, LAN Guzha wouldn't step into the formation.
"It seems that the Thunder gathering array is damaged. The lightning has escaped from the array!" Lin Yi nodded, confirming his guess. He turned around and took out a Thunder elixir for LAN Guzha,"Eat it!"
LAN Guzha didn't suspect anything and popped it into his mouth, his trust in Lin Yi evident.
Lin Yi nodded and continued to lead LAN Guzha forward. At the same time, he strengthened his guard. The tunnel wasn't long, only about a hundred steps away, but there would be lightning at almost every step. It was a strengthened version of the tunnel, and even Lin Yi, who was prepared, had a hard time dealing with it.
In this situation, it was impossible to move quickly. If he couldn't block the lightning accurately, he didn't know what would happen. If his real body was here, the lightning wouldn't be a threat, but he didn't dare to take the risk with a Yuan spirit.
Lin Yi's eyes brightened up as he walked out of the tunnel. He could see the sky covered in dark clouds, surrounded by cliffs, forming a Valley that wasn't too big or too small. In the center, there were clear formation patterns glowing and flowing.
"Thunder gathering formation! After so many years, it's still operating on its own. It's really amazing!" Lin Yi complimented as he started looking at the damaged parts of the formation. Normally, people wouldn't be able to see the patterns in a complete formation, as it was easy to grab onto the nodes and destroy them.
So when he saw the formation pattern, Lin Yi was sure that the Thunder gathering formation was damaged, but even if it was damaged, the amount of lightning it attracted was still quite shocking.
With the lightning gathering formation in his hands, it was easy for Lin Yi to observe the formation. After all, it was much easier to find the broken part than to build a new one.
On one of the array nodes of the Thunder gathering array, there was a crack in the array pattern, causing the entire array to be unable to flow when it reached this point. It could only change its direction. Because of this point, it affected the entire Thunder gathering array.
Lin Yi focused all his attention on guarding against the lightning, and the lightning at the edge of the formation was much denser than in the tunnel. Only Lin Yi could counter the lightning with lightning, and if it were someone else, they might not even be able to get close to this damaged node.
"The formation base uses spirit Jade as its power source? The spiritual Jade was only the initial energy source. After the formation was activated, the excess lightning energy would be directed underground to replenish the spiritual Jade. That was why the spiritual Jade would never be exhausted. It's almost a perpetual motion formation!" Lin Yi studied the damaged array base and exclaimed softly.
In the essence of the Thunder gathering array, only the arrangement of the array base was not mentioned in detail. Perhaps it was because the array base could not be set up by man and had to be found in a natural place? Or was the author of the essence of the array hiding something? However, this did not matter much, because the array base was not broken.
Lin Yi looked at the broken formation pattern-he didn't know if it was this node that broke first, or if the formation pattern broke first, causing the spirit Jade in the base to be unable to get energy. In the end, it was broken, but if he wanted to repair it, he'd have to fix the base first.
He took out a bunch of spirit Jade from the Jade space, took out the broken pieces of jade from the node, and filled it with new ones. He then carefully connected the broken nodes again, and after the whole process was done, a round, transparent cover appeared over the entire formation, covering the entire formation.
