And that is exactly the secret formation of the Ji Family - the He Tu Luo Shu formation.
Suddenly, Gu Sheng felt a powerful force clinging to him.
It felt like my body was entangled with countless invisible threads and I couldn't break free.
"Gu Sheng, be careful!"
When Li Ruoyu saw this, he immediately wanted to step forward to help.
"If you are stupid, don't be impulsive."
Grand Elder stretched out his hand to stop him.
"Elder Ji Hong has profound virtues. He will not really embarrass the younger generation. If Gu Sheng's life is really in danger, I will take action."
Grand Elder looked calm and seemed to know what Ji Hong was thinking.
Li Ruoyu knew that Grand Elder would not target without aim, so he could only hold his ground and watch the battle nervously from the side.
"Chichichi!"
In an instant, the He Tu Luo Shu formation was surrounded by countless golden lights, and its power became stronger and stronger.
Gu Sheng wanted to resist, but he felt that his power was constantly being suppressed, and his body was almost crushed.
At this moment, a flash of Spirit Light suddenly flashed in Gu Sheng's mind.
He suddenly remembered a set of footwork that Old Madman once taught him - Heavenly Dipper Seven Stars Footwork.
"Yes! Right now!"
Gu Sheng moved in his heart, controlled his body with his mind, and began to move according to the trajectory of Heavenly Dipper Seven Stars Footwork in his mind.
The so-called Heavenly Dipper Seven Stars Footwork is an extremely mysterious footwork.
This contains the power of heaven and earth and the way of nature.
It is said that during the flood control period, Dayu relied on this extraordinary ability to break various formations and restraints.
As the pace in Gu Sheng's mind became faster and faster, his body gradually became freed from the constraints of He Tu Luo Shu's formation.
"What!"
Ji Hong was slightly startled, and then put away the He Tu Luo Shu formation.
A breeze blew, and Ji Hong fell to the ground from mid-air.
"How do you know this kind of footwork?"
Ji Hong stepped forward and asked.
Gu Sheng did not hide anything and replied, "Old Madman taught me it, but I'm not very skilled in using it yet."
"It's him! It's really him!"
Ji Hong's face changed slightly, as if he had guessed the identity of the person who taught Gu Sheng Heavenly Dipper Seven Stars Footwork.
At the same time, Grand Elder and Li Ruoyu also looked surprised.
Judging from Gu Sheng's footwork just now, I'm afraid it would be difficult for them to understand the secret.
"It seems... he is really back."
Ji Hong sighed slightly.
"Who? Who is really back?"
Ji Ziyue Seeing that his elder was a little melancholy, he stepped forward and asked.
Then Ji Hong looked at Ji Ziyue, nodded and said, "Ziyue, do you want to go home?"
Ji Ziyue looked at Gu Sheng, then at Li Ruoyu.
"Elder... I... I don't want to go back yet."
Ji Ziyue said hesitantly.
"Okay, that's up to you, but you have to pay attention to your own safety."
Ji Hong nodded.
"Elder, you... won't you take me back?"
Ji Ziyue's face was full of surprise.
"Ziyue, you have grown up and have your own choices and judgments. Although I am worried about you, elder, I also know that what you need is freedom and space to grow."
Ji Hong smiled slightly, with a trace of kindness in his eyes.
Ji Ziyue's eyes flashed with emotion, knowing the elder's concern.
She took a deep breath, nodded and said, "Elder, I will be careful."
"Senior, please rest assured, Clumsy Peak Li Ruoyu will protect the two children."
Li Ruoyu took a step forward, raised his hands and said.
"Well, I believe in you and Tai Xuan Sect's ability."
Ji Hong nodded.
After saying that, Ji Hong nodded slightly towards Grand Elder and Li Ruoyu, a rainbow light flashed, and Ji Hong disappeared.
As Ji Hong left, the sky above Clumsy Peak suddenly became lively.
The elders of other main peaks were attracted by the formation Ji Hong just showed, and they all controlled their own flying magic weapons and flew towards Clumsy Peak.
They were either curious or respectful and wanted to find out.
Li Ruoyu and other Clumsy Peak disciples also felt this sudden attention. They whispered to each other and discussed the formation display just now.
Some disciples even began to imitate the movements of Ji Hong, trying to understand the mystery.
Ji Ziyue and Gu Sheng looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
They did not expect that Elder Ji Hong's move would actually elevate Clumsy Peak's status to a new level.
"It seems that our Clumsy Peak is about to usher in some new changes."
Li Ruoyu shook his head slightly and said.
At this moment, streaks of rainbow light landed on the square of Clumsy Peak.
Elders from other main peaks appeared one after another, their eyes full of curiosity and inquiry.
"Grand Elder, the formation display just now is really eye-opening. Can you explain it in detail?"
An elder from the main peak stepped forward with respect in his tone.
Grand Elder smiled slightly and nodded towards Li Ruoyu.
Li Ruoyu looked at Gu Sheng: "Gu Sheng, show me the footwork just now."
"Me?"
Gu Sheng pointed at his nose, obviously not expecting Li Ruoyu to push him out.
"Yes, let the elders of other main peaks see the strength of our Clumsy Peak."
Li Ruoyu nodded.
Immediately, Gu Sheng demonstrated the Heavenly Dipper Seven Stars Footwork method.
The elders from other main peaks watched with gusto.
They began to realize that Clumsy Peak was far more powerful than they imagined.
Some elders even began to consider establishing a closer cooperative relationship with Clumsy Peak.
Ji Ziyue stood aside, watching all this, and his heart was filled with pride.
In a few days, Clumsy Peak's reputation has spread in Ninety-nine Main Peaks.
More disciples from other main peaks also began to come here, hoping to learn Clumsy Peak's formations and cultivation methods.
But because Li Ruoyu had requirements, these disciples also fulfilled their goals.
Within a few days, Gu Sheng learned from these disciples that there was a powerful old man in the Wei Kingdom.
It's just that this old man is crazy and his words are out of tune.
But the divine power is unfathomable.
Moreover, Shaking Light Holy Land, Ji Family and Tai Xuan Sect all sent experts to look for this crazy expert.
When Gu Sheng heard this rumor, he immediately realized that that person might be Old Madman.
"Isn't this incredible? Six thousand years, actually lived for six thousand years?"
"It's just nonsense. How can anyone live for that long, unless they are gods."
"Don't believe it, that old guy is very powerful. Otherwise, why would Eastern Wasteland masters from various sects send people to look for him?"
In the Tai Xuan Sect, all the disciples of the main peak are discussing this matter.
It also includes some disciples of Clumsy Peak.
"Hey! What are you thinking about?"
Just when Gu Sheng was sitting on a rock and thinking about Old Madman, Ji Ziyue suddenly appeared aside.
Gu Sheng was awakened from his meditation by Ji Ziyue's voice. He turned his head and looked at Ji Ziyue's curious eyes.
"Nothing, just thinking about some past things."
Gu Sheng smiled slightly and replied casually.
"Cut!"
Ji Ziyue obviously didn't believe it. He pouted and came to Gu Sheng with the temper of a young lady.
"I don't believe you didn't think about anything. Tell me quickly, or I'm going to get angry."
Ji Ziyue said that he was about to take action and made a gesture of twisting Gu Sheng's arm.
"Hey... what are you doing?"
Gu Sheng is a little speechless.
"Are you going to tell me or not? If you don't tell me, I will pester you until you tell me."
Ji Ziyue looked unyielding.
Gu Sheng shook his head helplessly.
He knew Ji Ziyue's temper. If he didn't tell her, she might keep pestering him.
So, he sighed and said, "Okay, I was thinking about Old Madman."
As he spoke, Gu Sheng raised his head and looked at the sky in the distance Clumsy Peak.
"Six thousand years ago, he was famous Eastern Wasteland. I didn't expect that he would suddenly appear now. It's really unbelievable."
Ji Ziyue After hearing this, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.
She looked at Gu Sheng seriously. "Are you looking for him?"
Gu Sheng nodded. "Yes, I want to find him."
Ji Ziyue thought for a while, then smiled slyly, "It's easy to find him. You just need to go to places where others don't look, and you will find him naturally."
Gu Sheng was stunned for a moment, then understood and couldn't help but laugh.
"Ziyue, you are really smart. Those masters always like to search in conspicuous places, but ignore some inconspicuous corners."
"Of course, I am the genius girl Ji Family."
Ji Ziyue raised his chin proudly.
The two smiled at each other and decided to act together.
They began to ask around in the Tai Xuan Sect, looking for those neglected places.
They knew that since Old Madman could live for more than six thousand years, he must have extraordinary wisdom and ability.
The place he chose to hide must not be something ordinary people would think of.
But after a lot of effort, I had no clue at all.
After several days of searching, Gu Sheng and Ji Ziyue visited almost every corner of the Wei Kingdom.
They asked countless disciples, but still could not find any clues about Old Madman.
The initial excitement and anticipation gradually turned into frustration and exhaustion.
"Maybe our method is wrong, or he is not in the Wei Kingdom at all."
Gu Sheng sighed and said helplessly.
Ji Ziyue also seemed a little disappointed, "Maybe."
"Are you still looking for it?"
Gu Sheng turned his head and looked at Ji Ziyue who looked tired and asked.
"We're tired, let's go back."
Ji Ziyue said, patted his shoulder gently, and then turned his slender Xiaoyao.
"Okay."
Immediately, the two decided to go back to Clumsy Peak for a short rest.
They flew back to the Tai Xuan Sect from the Wei Kingdom, and as soon as they landed on a bluestone slab on the mountainside of Clumsy Peak, they saw an unexpected sight.
I saw an old man lying on the bluestone, basking in the sun leisurely.
At this time, he seemed not to care about anything around him.
Gu Sheng's eyes lit up, and he recognized the old man at a glance - that was the Old Madman they had been looking for.
"Ziyue, look!"
Gu Sheng pointed at the old man excitedly, his voice trembling.
Ji Ziyue looked along Gu Sheng's finger, "What?"
"He is the person we are looking for!"
Gu Sheng said and quickly landed from the sky.
"Huh? Him?"
Ji Ziyue follows up.
The two walked forward quickly and Gu Sheng bowed respectfully. "Senior, long time no see."
The old man opened his eyes and turned his head to look at Gu Sheng: "Oh? It's you."
Ji Ziyue asked curiously, "Senior, why are you here? We have been looking for you for a long time."
The old man smiled slightly, with a hint of playfulness in his voice. "I have always been by your side, but you just didn't notice."
Gu Sheng and Ji Ziyue looked at each other and smiled, feeling that there was profound truth in the old man's words.
"Senior, please come to the mountain. There is a place to rest there."
Gu Sheng said, pointing to the location of Clumsy Peak's hall.
Old Madman did not speak, but let out a sigh of relief.
"They are all dead... They are all dead... a piece of bones, a piece of desolation."
Old Madman groped with his hands in front of him, as if he saw some terrible sight.
"This..."
Ji Ziyue was frightened by Old Madman's words.
She didn't expect that this seemingly kind old man would suddenly say such words.
Immediately afterwards, Old Madman stood up suddenly.
He stood there and started dancing, mumbling something.
His movements sometimes seemed like he was fighting, sometimes like he was practicing martial arts.
Ji Ziyue felt scared and hid behind Gu Sheng unconsciously, not knowing how to deal with this sudden change.
Gu Sheng also felt a little uneasy, but more of a curiosity and concern.
"Senior... Senior!"
Gu Sheng called twice and tried to ask about Old Madman's situation.
But Old Madman seemed not to notice his presence at all and continued to be immersed in his own world.
"Uh-huh!"
Suddenly, Old Madman set up a rainbow light and flew directly into the distance.
His speed was extremely fast, and he almost disappeared into the sky in the blink of an eye.
"He... why is he gone?"
Ji Ziyue was too scared to chase after him.
She grabbed Gu Sheng's sleeves tightly, her eyes full of worry. "Gu Sheng, what's wrong, senior? What should we do?"
Gu Sheng frowned, feeling that Old Madman's abnormal behavior may be related to his six thousand years of experience.
He decided he had to give chase and see if he could find anything.
"Ziyue, you go back first and tell Senior Li about this. I will chase him and see if I can be of any help."
Gu Sheng said and flew directly in the direction where Old Madman disappeared.
Ji Ziyue nodded, stood there and shouted, "You have to be careful, you must be careful!"
Soon, Gu Sheng disappeared from the sight of Ji Ziyue.
Ji Ziyue stood there, looking at Gu Sheng's retreating back, praying silently in his heart.
On the other side, Gu Sheng chased for a while before catching up with Old Madman.
Gu Sheng is in hot pursuit.
Although he is extremely fast, Old Madman seems to be more agile and always on the edge of his sight.
After a period of chasing, Gu Sheng finally caught up with Old Madman in front of a hill.
This hill belongs to the Tai Xuan Sect and is said to be a forbidden area for the Tai Xuan Sect.
Gu Sheng had been here before, but was stopped by the cultivators here.
I just don't know why this time, following Old Madman here, it's like entering a deserted land.
As soon as Gu Sheng landed, he saw Old Madman standing motionless on the ground.
He looked around and saw several Tai Xuan Sect cultivators who had been knocked unconscious.
It turns out that Old Madman knocked out the defender here the moment it landed!
Then, Gu Sheng came to Old Madman.
"Huh..."
Suddenly, a strong wave of divine power surged toward Gu Sheng's face.
