After being expelled from the sect, I became the villain mentor

In this snowy city, the streets and buildings are almost identical, and the streets are lined with ice towers like this, making it hard to tell if you have been there before...

However, Chang Hun had previously slapped the thick snow on an ice tower, and the slap mark on the ice tower had not yet disappeared.

Ling Cang frowned when he heard this, then said, "Can you see anything?"

Chang Hun reached out and touched the wall of an ice-sculptured attic. He exerted force with his hands and feet, and in a few seconds he jumped onto the top of the ice building, standing there overlooking the entire ice city.

After a long while, Chang Hun, a polymath with extensive knowledge of battle formations, jumped down from the ice sculpture attic with a look of shock on his face. He muttered in a daze, "This is the Six Dings and Six Jias..."

"Master, what is the Six Ding and Six Jia Formation?" Gu Qing couldn't help but ask when she saw Chang Hun frowning.

"The Six Dings and Six Jias aren't formations, but rather a form of protection, often deployed by ancient cultivators to command divine generals to protect their bodies and gain immense power... How could they be deployed in a single space, forming such a large formation?"

Chang Hun felt a little unbelievable. Everything before him was beyond his common sense. He knew a few tricks of the Six Dings and Six Jias, but they had nothing to do with formations...

All the buildings in this ice and snow city are arranged and built according to the principles of Liu Ding and Liu Jia.

Could it be that the ancient monks, in addition to being able to channel divine power into the human body, could also bestow divine power on buildings?

At the same time, Ling Cang fell into deep thought, and could not help but mutter: "Ding Chou prolongs my life, Ding Hai restrains my soul, Ding You controls my spirit, Ding Wei wards off my disaster, Ding Si saves me from danger, and Ding Mao saves me from misfortune.

Jiazi protects my body, Jiaxu preserves my form, Jiashen strengthens my life, Jiawu guards my soul, Jiachen calms my spirit, and Jiayin nurtures my true self..."

A deep and magnetic voice came out slowly and rhythmically, word by word, attracting Yu Nian and the other two to look at Ling Cang who was in deep thought.

"Ling Cang, what are you talking about?" Yu Nian looked at Ling Cang, who seemed to be possessed by a demon, and asked in confusion.

Ling Cang came back to his senses and looked at Yu Nian before slowly explaining, "The Six Dings and Six Jias are a kind of protection for the immortal sect. People who use the Six Dings and Six Jias on buildings want to use them to protect something."

"Seven Star Lamp!" Chang Hun suddenly realized.

Ling Cang nodded expressionlessly, looked at Chang Hun who looked ecstatic, and replied: "Yes and no."

It is true that they are guarding something, but it is unclear whether they are guarding the Seven-Star Lamp or something else.

"It must be right. Even such a strange formation can be set up. The Seven Star Lamp must exist..."

Chang Hun had a fanatical look on his face, but that expression was not one of greed and fanaticism for the Seven Star Lamp, but a desire to explore mysterious things.

"Don't be happy too soon. Let's find a way to get out of this strange formation first!" Ling Cang glanced at Chang Hun indifferently and poured cold water on him.

Chang Hun gradually calmed down. Yes, they were now trapped in the formation evolved by the Six Dings and Six Jias...how to get out?

"In ancient times, people practiced talismans, array formations, and commanded divine generals to protect their bodies. Besides the twenty-eight constellations, the four guards, the Southern Dipper, the Northern Dipper, and so on, the most common were the Six Dings and Six Jias... Although the Six Dings and Six Jias are now in decline, they were extremely common in ancient times."

Ling Cang glanced around calmly and continued, "To break the formation set up by one guardian, another guardian is needed to offset it. In the legends of the Lingbing Clan, this guardian is most likely the Seven Star Lamp... The Seven Stars correspond to the Big Dipper.

If I'm not mistaken, the Seven Star Steps are needed to unlock the protective formation set up by the Six Dings and Six Jias."

Ye Tang was surprised: "Big Brother, how do you know so much?"

Ling Cang asked weakly, "...Do you think everyone is as ignorant as you?"

No matter how many guesses there are, it is better to give it a try. Ling Cang recalled how to perform the Seven Star Steps.

In the Seven Star Steps, first raise the left hand, one step at a time, one forward and one backward, one yin and one yang, with the beginning and the end synchronized. Place the feet horizontally and straight, supporting each other like a T-character, thus symbolizing the meeting of yin and yang.

Watching Ling Cang walk away with strange steps, Yu Nian and the others looked at each other, and finally followed Ling Cang's steps.

As the four people walked along this path, a slight crisp sound was heard in the air, as if a layer of transparent glass had shattered and was falling to the ground.

Seeing this, Ling Cang's eyes became brighter and his steps became more agile and swift.

With the last step, Ling Cang leaped onto an ice tower.

Ling Cang, dressed in a lavender robe, stood on one leg on the top of the ice tower. His figure was tall and straight, his face was calm and resolute, bringing endless shock and visual impact to people's hearts.

"Yu Buxiang urged me to ascend Yangming, break it for me!"

A low voice sounded in this space, as if it had all kinds of magical power, rippling out from the center to the surroundings, like water washing everything. Wherever the sound passed, the world took on a new look.

Everyone found that the ice and snow city they had seen before had faded away like a curtain, and they were now standing at the foot of an extremely tall snow-capped mountain.

In front of them was a palace carved out of a whole stone wall. In the middle of the palace stood a wide-open door. Four huge cold jade pillars, each requiring dozens of people to hug, stood at the door. A layer of light curtain was faintly flickering at the door.

"This hall..."

Chang Hun took out a blueprint, looked at the entrance of the temple, and then looked at the simple pattern drawn on the blueprint. After comparing the two, he confirmed that this place was exactly the place he had seen on a mural in the cave before.

Just when Chang Hun was wondering where this place where the temple was carved out of the mountain was, Ling Cang reached out his hand as if possessed by a ghost and touched the light curtain.

Chang Hun's pupils shrank, and before he could stop Ling Cang from touching the ancient restriction, the light curtain rippled directly from Ling Cang's fingertips, and then dissipated bit by bit.

"Go in." Ling Cang said expressionlessly, "There's no danger."

Seeing Ling Cang speaking so confidently and as if he was sure of it, Chang Hun became even more confused and interested.

Along the way, he had noticed Ling Cang's abnormal behavior. It was truly bizarre...

Several people walked into the majestic and solemn hall, which exuded an ancient charm. The first thing that caught their eyes was a three-meter-high statue in the center of the hall.

This is a statue of a woman with a beautiful face and a hint of seduction. She is holding a glass lamp in her hand. Her posture is elegant and generous. She looks very vivid, like a real person.

There was an entrance on each side of the woman. Everyone looked at Ling Cang, asking with their eyes which intersection to go.

"left."

Enter from the cave entrance on the left and slowly move forward along the man-made tunnel behind the main hall. Along the way, there are many crystal ice coffins hanging on the stone walls on both sides of the tunnel.

Under the illumination of the eternal lamp on the stone wall, Yu Nian could still see the cold body lying inside the transparent crystal ice coffin.

These people have obviously been dead for a long time. Judging from their clothes, the oldest ones are tens of thousands of years old. But what is surprising is that these corpses are still intact and look almost the same as when they were alive.

If it weren't for the lack of breathing and life, Yu Nian would have thought these people were asleep.

After walking for so long and seeing so many coffins, everyone realized that this hall was where the Lingbing people kept the bodies of their clansmen, similar to the cemetery outside.

From time to time, a few small caves would appear on both sides of the tunnel, and the caves were still filled with crystal ice coffins and corpses, but the crystal ice coffins were larger in size and the people lying inside were dressed more gorgeously.

Yu Nian thought that the people of the Lingbing tribe who were staying in the cave at that time should have a much higher status and position in the tribe.

"Master, there's no one in this coffin!"

Gu Qing pointed to a small cave beside the tunnel. In the middle of the cave was a crystal ice coffin. However, the crystal ice coffin was empty, and even the coffin lid was lying on the ground.

It's no wonder that Gu Qing was so surprised. All the coffins along the way were filled with people from the Lingbing clan, but this was the only empty coffin he saw.

Several people entered the cave and looked around. Apart from the ice coffin placed on the stone platform and the coffin lid that seemed to have been deliberately opened and thrown on the ground, there was nothing else in the cave.

"It seems that it is just an empty tomb chamber. Master, let's go to the front and take a look."

Ling Cang left as if nothing had happened, but after the others reached the front of the tunnel, he stood at the entrance of the cave, looked at the shoe prints on the side of the coffin lid that were so shallow that they were almost invisible, frowned slightly, and left as if thinking about something.
