Chapter 478: Chapter 0480: Someone is Watching

Chu Ge stood there, only to watch helplessly as Huo Tianqian drove in circles on the spot.

There must be someone nearby!

Chu Ge’s intuition told him, there must be someone watching them.

Because this barrier had not been set up just a moment ago, and in a matter of minutes, an Array had been established.

This person must be very powerful.

He didn’t know what this person wanted to do, but now, he had to break this Mysterious Formation!

Chu Ge did not think further. He looked around and searched for loopholes in the surroundings.

This Mysterious Formation was based on the locations of these graves, along with the surrounding trees and the fog.

The fog seemed to be hovering only halfway up the sky, but if you were careful, you’d notice that the fog was moving in a direction.

Chu Ge squinted slightly and was actually curious to meet the person who could use natural phenomena to set up this Array.

The Mysterious Formation was based on the principles of the Five Elements Bagua Formation, at most, it could be considered a small formation within the Five Elements Bagua Formation.

The key to breaking it lies in the direction of the mist’s flow. Since it changes all the time, the position of the Life Gate is uncertain.

Tai Chi gives birth to two elements, two elements give birth to Four Symbols, and Four Symbols give birth to the Eight Diagrams.

The Eight Diagrams are then named after Heaven, Earth, Wind, Cloud, Dragon, Tiger, Bird, and Snake respectively.

Chu Ge came to a grave and found that these graves had one thing in common—none of them had gravestones.

But they were erratically arranged with some intentional pattern.

Chu Ge soon realized that the positions of these graves were based on the Four Directions.

Since there were too many graves, the presence of some could easily disrupt one’s first intuition.

And these Four Directions represent the formations of Heaven, Earth, Wind, and Cloud, which belong to Defensive Formation.

Defensive...

Chu Ge had never relaxed his brows since the beginning, his deep and focused black pupils and the steps he took became more methodical.

This Array posed no threat to anyone; it was purely defensive.

Was the person who set up this Array trying to protect something?

Chu Ge suddenly became curious.

At this moment, in a hidden spot, a little boy dressed in a blue monk’s robe was sitting on a tree, swinging his little legs lightly. He tilted his head, with eyes black and large like grapes shining with an amused light, unblinkingly enjoying Huo Tianqian driving around in circles.

After watching for a while, possibly finding it quite boring, he turned his head to look at Chu Ge, wanting to see what he was doing, and suddenly discovered that he was about to break the Array and make his way out!

The little monk was startled, hurriedly jumped down from the tree and quickly went in front of Chu Ge, raising his hand to use his True Qi to change the direction of the fog.

With the dispersal of the fog changing direction, the Array also altered accordingly.

The little monk, satisfied with the rearranged Array trapping Chu Ge inside once more, touched his chin and chuckled, "It has been a long time since I’ve met someone so interesting."

Chu Ge had already figured out the pattern and was about to step out, but suddenly he saw the surrounding fog abruptly change, the fog swiftly shifted in another direction, followed by the trees also changing their position.

With one move, everything is set in motion.

The array formation returns to its original state.

Chu Ge’s brows are tightly furrowed as the certainty grows within him: nearby, a pair of eyes are constantly watching them.

"May I ask what intentions you have in trapping my brother and me here?"

Chu Ge’s voice carries a penetrating force, and he believes that the person must be able to hear him. However, after he speaks for a while, there is no response from the person.

Chu Ge’s lips are slightly pursed, his hands tucked into his pockets as he stands still and looks around.

Though the array has been tampered with and reset to its original appearance, the principle of breaking through the array does not change.

So, Chu Ge tries to walk through it again, following the method he used before.

The little monk, having witnessed all this, looks at Chu Ge with some surprise. This person is not like the ones he has teased before; even after realizing he had spent a night in the graveyard, there is not a trace of panic. Unlike the others who were scared witless, crying for their parents early on.

The little monk grows interested in Chu Ge. He sits cross-legged, propping his chin with his small hand, watching Chu Ge with delight.

Just as Chu Ge is about to break the array, the little monk changes it again. This time, it’s not just about restoring the array to its original state.

He adds a new array within the array.

Chu Ge considers himself a very patient person. Perhaps because he no longer has his martial arts power, when he sees the changes in the array and that a new one has been triggered within it, he begins to feel agitated.

He knows that someone outside is controlling everything, yet he is powerless to stop it.

Chu Ge truly doesn’t know what this person wants. Are they trying to trap him and Huo Tianqian here until they die?

But from the layout of the array, it does not seem to be newly formed, as there are no signs of the soil on the ground being freshly turned.

If he is not mistaken, this place must be the ghost belt of Su City that people often talk about.

The ghost belt, just as its name suggests, is purported to be haunted.

And for that very reason, very few people pass through this area. Even the brave few who do only dare to travel here during the day, leaving the area deserted at night.

However, Chu Ge does not believe in ghosts, so he is convinced that all of this is being controlled by someone.

Since you wish to play, I shall indulge you in your game!

Chu Ge’s lips curl into a provocative, scornful smirk, "Since you want to play, I will play with you. Use all the tricks you have; you won’t be able to trap me with this array within an array!"

Chu Ge’s statement is no bluff. Although it is a complex array within an array, which is slightly harder to break than a single array, there is no offensive power in this formation. Thus, he doesn’t need to worry about being injured by any hidden weapon while resolving it.

Breaking this array is simply a matter of time.

The little monk, observing Chu Ge speak with such conviction, naturally sees through the non-combative nature of the array.

From the very start, Chu Ge never showed a hint of panic or fear, which has been quite unsettling for the little monk.

Now hearing Chu Ge’s challenge, the little monk’s small face becomes even more indignant. Sitting there in silence, he picks up a small stone and throws it in Chu Ge’s direction.

The small stone isn’t harmful and causes him only a slight pain when it hits his shin.

Seeing this, Chu Ge understands; he had his suspicions before, and while he was quite confident in them, this small stone is enough to prove that all his guesses were correct.

Indeed, someone nearby is watching them.
