"Looks like the hidden killing formation is arranged in the shape of the Big Dipper. This Jade plaque is the tool for the Megrez star's position. The other six Jade plaques correspond to the positions of the other six stars."
Lin Yi touched the patterns on the Jade token, lost in thought."Senior ghost, do you think that Broken City Yin is where Megrez planet is located?"
"It's hard to say! Megrez is located at the center of the seven stars. Perhaps you should look for the map of the broken mountain range to see if there's any terrain similar to the seven stars. "
The demonic thing didn't say anything. He didn't continue because he wanted Lin Yi to leave the abandoned land safely and kill all the dark beasts.
As for how many people would die in the abandoned land, it was not within the scope of the ghost's consideration!
"That makes sense! Senior ghost, you're the most experienced!"
Lin Yi smiled and nodded. He took out the map fragment as he put the Jade away."Senior ghost, take a look. Is this map fragment the location of the hidden killing array?"
"I can't tell ... The damage is too severe. I can't identify it!"
The ghastly thing looked at it carefully for a while and finally gave up.""It's probably the same as the Jade token. I can only understand it after I've gathered everything. "
"Senior ghost, why do you think this thing is in the hands of Broken City Lord Yin? Apart from the possibility just now, could it be that Broken city's city Lord was a descendant who was left behind to monitor the abandoned land?"
Lin Yi frowned. The trusted aide of that higher being might have died long ago. If he was still alive, his strength would be way stronger than Broken city's city Lord.
So Lin Yi felt that his guess was very likely to be true. Of course, this wasn't important. What was important was that the other Jade cards and broken maps were most likely in the hands of the other castellans!
"It's possible, because there's a high chance that the broken city is like what you've speculated, the position of the celestial star in the Big Dipper. Without further delay, find someone to get a map of the mountain range and study it!"
"Alright, I'll get someone immediately!"
Lin Yi thought so and put the jade box into the Jade space before opening the door and leaving.
The higher-ups of the house were all dead, but the middle and lower levels were still intact. Lin Yi quickly found a guard and asked where he could get a map of the mountain range.
"City Lord, there's a complete terrain model of the entire mountain range in the meeting hall. If you need it, I can bring you there."
It was a rather young guard, looking at Lin Yi with eyes full of respect.
Lin Yi had practically saved the entire broken Yin city all by himself, especially with his clones going around to save people. The people of broken Yin city viewed him with a high level of respect that even Lin Yi himself couldn't imagine.
"Alright, then I'll have to trouble you to lead the way."
Lin Yi smiled and nodded, signaling for the guard to lead the way.
"This subordinate will do as you command! I'm willing to serve the city Lord!"
The young guard couldn't hide the excitement and pride on his face as he led Lin Yi to the meeting hall after a solemn bow.
The mansion was huge, and Lin Yi wasn't very familiar with it. The spirit sense barrier wasn't strong, but he didn't want to destroy it. It was better to have someone lead the way.
The meeting hall wasn't too far away, and they soon arrived at the place after a few turns.
"City Lord, this is the meeting hall, is there anything else you need this subordinate to do?"
The young guard bowed slightly, a respectful smile on his face.
"Thank you for leading the way. I don't need any help for the time being. You can go back first!"
Lin Yi nodded lightly and thanked him with a smile before sending him away.
A hint of disappointment flashed across the young guard's face. Being able to be with his idol was a rare opportunity. Unfortunately, he couldn't help much, so he could only bow and leave.
Lin Yi pushed open the door and entered the room. A huge model of a mountain range came into view, taking up almost two-thirds of the room.
"It's indeed the terrain model of the yinduan mountain range. Look over there, the small red house represents yinduan city!"
The ghostly thing had found their exact location.
"Senior ghost, broken Yin city isn't in the center of broken Yin mountain range. It can only be said to be in the center of the outer region."
Lin Yi pointed at the Red House on the map, and looked at the uninhabited area deeper in the mountain range.
He had never set foot in that place before, and he never thought that there would be such a vast area there. It was nearly ten times larger than the outer mountains.
The area occupied by human cultivators was actually less than one-tenth of the entire broken Yin mountain range! This situation was far beyond Lin Yi's expectations.
"Let's not worry about that area for now. Let's look at the distribution of the surrounding cities!"
The demonic thing was more concerned about the hidden killing formation. If he could determine the position of the Big Dipper, activating the killing formation would be very smooth.
"Every city has a label, but there are more than two digits of cities in the entire mountain range, as well as some small villages. Senior ghost, can you see anything?"
Lin Yi glanced at the houses scattered around the model, feeling a headache coming on."How nice would it be if there are only seven cities and these seven cities form the Big Dipper?!"
"Haha, you wish! Stop daydreaming!"
The demonic thing laughed a few times before sighing softly. As expected, it was not easy to find the hidden killing formation just by looking at the terrain of the mountain range."If the broken city is the location of Megrez planet ... Fine, the surrounding cities can be said to be the other six stars. This won't do!"
"Does this map fragment correspond to the location of the mountain range?" Lin Yi took out the map fragment again and compared it to the mountains.
Unfortunately, the map fragment was too small, and it was impossible to see what was drawn on it. It was impossible to find the location with this!
"What can you see from this? For now, he had to find the rest of the Jade plates and the map fragments. As for the location of the hidden killing formation, it would naturally come to fruition when the time came. It's also possible that after you've gathered all the map fragments, you'll realize that the hidden killing formation isn't activated at seven locations, but at one location ..."
The ghastly thing suddenly changed the topic."Feng Duan city is a good target. You can go there and look around. You might find another Jade box."
"Senior ghost, are you trying to say that I have a grudge against Feng Duan city, so I don't have any psychological burden if I go over and attack them?"
Lin Yi couldn't help but laugh. In order to get the other Jade plates and map fragments, he would fight for them, no matter if they had grudges or not."But senior ghost, what you said makes sense. Perhaps the seven Jade plates can activate the formation as long as they are concentrated at a node."
"The most important thing now is to confirm whether the other Jade tokens and map fragments are in the hands of the city Lords or left in their respective city Lords 'mansions."
Feng Duan city was relatively close to Broken City, so it was more suitable to be the first target.
