Chapter 45 Formation
Chen Liuan looked at Jiang Lisheng with admiration.

Such a good Hidden Illusion Talisman is something I have never seen or heard of before. It was actually drawn by Junior Sister Jiang from Qingxu. Isn't it said that she learns everything but can't learn anything well? No one else has such a Hidden Illusion Talisman. She created it on her own, but she is still said to be unable to learn it well?
He felt that the rumors were really unbelievable. "Junior Sister Jiang, how long can your Illusion Talisman last?"

"I don't know either." Jiang Lisheng shook his head and said honestly, "The level of my performance in drawing talismans is different every time. Some talismans can last for a long time, while others can last for a short time. The longest can last for several days, while the shortest can last for only a moment or two. When I drew these two invisible illusion talismans, I had abundant spiritual energy and my hand felt very good, so they should be able to last for a while longer."

"Then let's hurry up and run farther away." Chen Liuan felt that there was still a problem, "That dog thing will follow the smell to find you. After your invisibility talisman disappears, can it still follow the smell to find you?"

"It's hard to say. We can only run farther away." Jiang Lisheng didn't know either.

Chen Liuan asked again: "How many more of these talismans do you have?"

"Gone."

Chen Liuan: “…”

As expected, everyone has limited stock of good stuff.

The two men did not dare to stop, nor did they dare to slow down. They kept running northward for a whole day and night. When Shan Gao did not catch up with them again, they decided to stop.

Chen Liuan was very happy, "Junior Sister Jiang, your Illusion-Invisibility Talisman actually worked for a whole day and night. And it hasn't lost its effect yet."

You know, the high-level talismans drawn by Elder Danyang, who is good at Taiyi alchemy, can only be effective for so long.

Jiang Lisheng was also very happy, "Finally got rid of that bastard! Should I get rid of it?"

She reached for the storage bag, wanting to take some snacks, but as soon as her hand touched the snack bag, she stopped and didn't dare to take it. What if she took the snacks and attracted that bastard again? She had better endure it!

She leaned against the tree trunk and sighed, "I'm so hungry."

Chen Liuan took out the Bigu Pills and said, "Junior Sister Jiang, didn't you bring any Bigu Pills? Here they are."

It stands to reason that when a cultivator reaches the foundation-building stage, he no longer needs the fasting pills, and drinking the wind and dew is enough. However, Chen Liuan is used to having a little bit of everything on hand. He doesn't need the fasting pills, but he has many fellow disciples, some of whom haven't reached the foundation-building stage yet. He puts them in his storage ring just in case.

Jiang Lisheng shook his head, "No, but Senior Brother Chen, please take it back! I don't want to eat this."

She sighed and explained, "I want to eat some snacks, mortal snacks. I have some in my storage bag, but I don't dare take them out. They have a strong smell, and I'm afraid that if I take them out, I'll attract that dog again."

She complained, "You don't know, it was when I was eating that I attracted that dog. From that day on, it kept chasing me and wanted to eat my snacks. If I didn't give it to it, it would eat me."

Chen Liuan: “…”

He finally understood, "Junior Sister Jiang, you mean, you didn't want to give up your snacks? That's why it keeps chasing you?"

Jiang Lisheng nodded, "It didn't eat me at first, it just wanted to steal my snacks, and I didn't give them to it, so it got angry."

Chen Liuan was speechless and remained silent for a moment before asking, "I have never eaten any snacks from the mortal world. Are they delicious?"

He was born in Taiyi Xianmen. Both his parents were cultivators. He was trained by the sect since he was young and did not touch the mundane world. Although he had been to the mortal world, his master taught him that those foods were turbid and polluted, which were not good for cultivators. Naturally, he would not eat them. Jiang Lisheng touched the storage bag, "I think it tastes good."

"Okay! The dog wants to eat for free, but I can't give it to him." Chen Liuan saw that Jiang Lisheng was obviously greedy but didn't dare to eat, and looked a little pitiful. He could only say: "Junior Sister Jiang, please bear with it. Although one day and one night is a long time, the dog is too smart and has advanced in a short time. If it comes again, the two of us really can't handle it."

Jiang Lisheng tried his best to hold it in. He nodded, "Yeah, I can hold it in."

Chen Liuan sighed, "How can we get out of this damn place? We have been walking so far north, can we still go east?"

Jiang Lisheng's mind has calmed down now. She pondered and said, "The speed of our flying swords is not slow at all. In theory, we can travel hundreds of miles a day. But before I met you, I kept running eastward for several days and still couldn't get out. Now I'm running northward, the same thing. I've been running for a day and a night, but there's still no end. I suspect that this is a large formation set up by a master. We have actually been in the formation. Whether we go east or north, no matter how long we run, I'm afraid it's useless."

After she finished speaking, she added, "Also, there's no use going up. I've tried it. I'm tall, and so are the dead trees."

"I've tried it too." Chen Liuan was shocked. "Is it a large formation? Sister Jiang, now that you put it that way, I also feel that something is wrong, but I know nothing about formations."

He looked at Jiang Lisheng expectantly, "Junior Sister Jiang, you have some knowledge about formations, right?"

Jiang Lisheng scratched his head and told the truth, "But I haven't mastered it well. This formation is extremely mysterious. It's been several days since I realized it was a formation. With my ability, I'm afraid I can't break it."

Chen Liuan took a breath and encouraged her, "Junior Sister Jiang, you have to believe in yourself."

Jiang Lisheng suddenly felt extremely stressed.

Chen Liuan could only say, "Junior Sister Jiang, if this is really a formation, then we have to rely on you. Obviously there is no one else here, I'm afraid it's just the two of us. My master said that in a general secret realm, the difficulties each of us encounters are opportunities for each of us. The two of us fell here, which shows that there is an opportunity for the two of us."

Jiang Lisheng wanted to cry, "I didn't want any chance."

She told him her plan, "Brother Chen, I originally thought that if I couldn't get out, then I wouldn't be able to get out. When the secret realm falls asleep again, I will be ejected. It's all that matters as long as I'm alive."

Chen Liuan: “…”

He shook his head, "Junior Sister Jiang, you are wrong. We must get out. Otherwise, if we are trapped in the formation, we may fall asleep along with the secret realm until the next hundred years. Have you forgotten how many seniors who went out to train were either eaten by monsters or trapped by various illusions and difficulties, and stayed in the difficulties forever."

Jiang Lisheng was horrified, "Is that so?"

"Yeah." Chen Liuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "So, who told you that you can be ejected just by waiting and doing nothing? When we come in, we have to go through the entry gate, and when we go out, we also have to find the exit gate."

Jiang Lisheng: "..."

No one told her, she thought it was her first time in the secret realm, so she took it for granted.

Chen Liuan explained, "The secret realm you mentioned that can be ejected is the one that our own sect specially split for the disciples to train. It is controlled by the elders of the sect. It has set a time and limits for the disciples. Only when the time is up will they be ejected. It is not the one we are training in now. This one is extremely dangerous."

Jiang Lisheng: "..."

She thought that as long as she could save her life from being eaten by the monster, it would be enough, but it turned out not to be the case. If she had known, she would never come in, but she came in by herself and blocked that damn woman Ji Fuling from coming out.
