My Big Brother is Seeking Death Again
Chapter 35: I want to be quite...

"This can't be!" Ji Han looked incredulous, "Just now, we intended to forcefully break the formation, but this formation was clearly activated and attacked us."

Zhen Bing still ignored him, behaving as if he didn't exist at all and only focused on looking at Shi Xia.

"He said the formation had just been activated." Shi Xia had no choice but to repeat Ji Han's question again. Alas, he didn't recognise his presence, no one knows she is also tired dealing with this spirit animal of hers ah!

"That's because on top of this formation, there is an anti-phase formation that will rebound all attacks."

In other words, Ji Han's previous attacks were all self-inflicted! Shi Xia looked back at Ji Han, and sure enough, his face was black.

"Zhen Bing, then do you know how to break this formation?"

"If Xia Xia wants to break it, then I will." The corner of the Zhen Bing's eyes curved beautifully before he reached out and smoothed Shi Xia's hair as a habit. When his hand moved to her face, he paused for a moment and hesitated a little before slowly withdrawing his hand.

He turned to the formation and pressed one of his hands on the seal. Reciting something unrecognisable, he gently raised his hand a waved. Everyone saw with astonished eyes that the formation which occupied most of the place of the door slowly darkened, like an air bubble.

And the door, which also looked very simple and majestic also changed. The various patterns on it became alive and began to wander on the door. Slowly moving to the lower right corner, the pattern separated into two sides. One slowly converged into a rectangle and the other converged into a square, both standing side by side with a moderate distance.

After converging into these two shapes those patterns stopped. The shapes that were formed by the patterns suddenly started emitting a more shiny golden light than the previous spell. With a creak, the two patterns sunk inward and slowly moved toward inside, revealing two different entrances.

The long rectangular shape, which looked like a door, was emitting white light inside. And the square shaped one, which was very small, only a few dozen centimeters wide and looked like a small box was very dark inside.

Ji Han's eyes widened violently and he exclaimed in astonishment, "The door …… opened!"

"What is written on it?" Long Aotian pointed to the glowing white light above the entrance and asked.

Shi Xia took a closer look, the pattern above the entrance that had converged into two black fonts looked like some words written in traditional Chinese. She couldn't help but read out, "check…… ……" What does it mean?

Shi Xia couldn't read the sentence fully when suddenly, she felt a burning sensation by her side. She subconsciously wanted to dodge, but it was too late. The sky full of fire was running towards her with breathtaking speed.

"Xia Xia!" Zhen Bing almost instantly formed a defensive barrier around her, blocking the flames at his side. But the next moment, another formation lit up again under his feet. His body stiffened for a moment as he looked down. It was another formation to trap them!

Looking up, he looked at the culprit who set these formations for them, Ji Han.

Damn! I knew that these two bitches will secretly scheme against us. But they couldn't trap her group before with this formation, it was unlikely it will be useful now.

The other side obviously also understood this, so they didn't wait to kill them. Ji Han seized the opportunity when the formation was completed and Shi Xia's group was bound before flying towards the white entrance and shouting, "Senior Sister, let's go!"

"Yes." Lu Yi nodded, but she didn't follow to go forward. Instead, she summoned a weapon, turned her hand and directly stabbed it to Ji Han's chest.

Ji Han wasn't prepared for the attack and had no time to defend himself. Suddenly being stabbed by someone he believed oh-so much, his face became stunned as he turned back, "Senior Sister, you ……."

(⊙o⊙)

Shi Xia and her buddies were stunned too. Zhen Bing even subconsciously stopped breaking the formation, his hand hovering in mid air. All three of them had one thing in mind, what is this situation? One team member deceiving the other!

"Senior Brother, please don't blame me." Lu Yi smiled smugly and pulled out the sword from Ji Han's chest, "Who made ‘Returning Wheel' only one!"

Zhen Bing finally raised his stiff hand and directly broke through the formation that trapped them. Lu Yi didn't bother with them, with the posture of a victor, she directly turned around and flew towards the entrance. But another accident, stunning everyone, happened again ……

"Ah!!!" Lu Yi, who had just entered the door, suddenly let out a miserable scream. At the entrance of the rectangular door, which was emitting white light just a moment ago, a large group of various formations suddenly appeared. Thousands of spirit swords appeared out of thin air at the same time and rushed towards Lu Yi in unison, almost instantly stabbing her into a hedgehog.

Lu Yi, who just now had a smug look on her face, turned into a bloody person in a flash and stumbled down on the ground. Her face was full of panic as she desperately tried to crawl out of that door. While crawling, she reached out towards the people outside the door and said, "save …… save me ……".

But those spirit swords didn't stop only stabbing her, they rushed forward again and directly cut off her hands. She didn't even have time to say another word before she had lost her voice.

All this happened too quickly, just in a matter of a few seconds. Shi Xia subconsciously turned her head away, not wanting to see the tragic situation inside the door. The poor girl wouldn't have such an ending if she didn't betray her companion and other people. The result was all her own doing.

The sudden change of events was too sudden and surprising. So it took a long while for them to return to their senses.

"Benefactor, what should we do with him now?" Long Aotian took a few steps forward and picked up the injured Ji Han who was lying at the door.

Shi Xia looked at Ji Han, who had a large hole in his lower chest. That Lu Yi had stabbed him squarely on the chest. Although he was not killed on the spot, his injuries weren't quite light either.

"Let him go, we will leave him alone."

"Shouldn't we kill him?" Long Aotian looked surprised and said with anxiety, "What if he backstabbed us again?"

"Forget it." Shi Xia waved her hand and subconsciously frowned. As a person living in a peaceful era of the 21st century, she didn't want to have her hands coloured with blood. She couldn't kill him, even though the other part was a scumbag, "he only has a breath left, and may die soon. We won't kill him, but won't save him either!"

Long Aotian nodded and let go of Ji Han. He left before giving the other party a fierce glare filled with warning.

Shi Xia refocused her attention on the entrance, the formations inside the door were still lit although no one stepped inside. The rows of swords had already disappeared from the sight.

"Zhen Bing, didn't you say that the real formation is hidden inside?" Earlier, Zhen Bing had said that the formation on the door was just a blindfold, and the real formation was behind the formation. Was he referring to the formation inside the door?

"Mm." Zhen Bing nodded his head.

Sure enough! It was that Ji Han and Lu Yi's fault for being too eager, seeing a door and thinking that the entrance was open. They were stupid to rush in directly only to replace death, instead of contemplating on Zhen Bing's words.

Wait ……

"You wouldn't ……" Shi Xia looked him up and down, Zhen Bing shouldn't have known this would happen, that's why he let himself get trapped by the formation and wasn't anxious at all to leave it, right?

Is the IQ of all the spiritual beasts so high?

Seeing her looking at him with wide eyes, Zhen Bing reached out and touched the top of her head. His eyes lit up like a candle as he began to rub her hair, as if he was touching something precious. Even the tail behind him poofed out, swaying left and right in excitement.

Shi Xia looked at the hand patting on the top of her head and thought, he likes to touch my head so much, how did he develop such a bad habit?

"Then this formation, can you break it?"

Zhen Bing withdrew his claws with some regret. Turning his head, he looked at the formation with serious eyes, his brows scrunching up in contemplation, "I can only see these formations, which belong to a special system that reacts to anything related to gold. But I don't know how to break it. I think there was a reason why the spirit sword appeared. There must be a great formation of unification at the end. What we are seeing now is not the full shape of the formation."

"That means it can't be solved?" Long Aotian asked anxiously.

"Before seeing the formation, it cannot be solved."

"Then what should we do?" Shi Xia became discouraged, Ji Han had said before that this was the deepest part of the Mu Xuan Immortal Mansion, and her final destination. Although she didn't know if going inside will restore the mission or not, she still had to go in.

"It's not that hard either." Zhen Bing grabbed her hand and then said, "This formation implies a phase selection formation, and those who enter, if they meet the rules set in the phase selection formation, the formations will not activate."

Dare I say that this formation is actually a screening function?

"This formation technique is somewhat like ……" Zhen Bing stopped halfway through his sentence. His brow furrowed into a frown, seemingly remembering something unpleasant.

"Benefactor, look!" Long Aotian suddenly pointed to the door with a surprised face, "it's burning."

They looked to the door and saw inside the door, fire suddenly lit up. Lu Yi's corpse also lit up with blue flames, and they covered her whole body instantly. In a few moments, the corpse turned into ashes, even the blood all over the ground was burned cleanly.

The next moment, the words ‘Check before entering' lit up on top of the door in black font before slowly turning into gold.

"Check……we must give up something to enter the door?" Long Aotian scratched his head and looked around before saying in a surprised voice, "Hey, the door next to it also lit up."

Shi Xia turned her head to look, and indeed the box-sized entrance next to it also lit up with a row of red formations. Those formations kept moving inside, like a conveyor belt moving inward to check things.

Wait!

Special system, rules to enter, screening, conveyor belt ……

Why does it seem these words combined are a bit familiar? But for a moment, she couldn't remember what they were.

"Look, there are words written on this too." Long Aotian pointed to the top of the small entrance, "But ……what is this language? I have never seen this before. And I don't know what is written on it."

Shi Xia came over and took a look. But when she saw the two lines of words written above, she immediately felt so embarrassed that she wanted to slap herself on the face.

With a ding, the previous words were connected together in her head.

The familiarity she felt before was now laid open before her.

The two lines of words in gold written in simplified Chinese characters were nothing but.

Security checking point.

Please check your belongings before entering!

"……"

Damn! Would it have killed you if you simply said it was a security checkpoint?

It was obviously the configuration of the security checkpoint. The square shaped door on the left was the security checkpoint, and the rectangular door on right was the security checking machine, with its own X-ray machine and ferocious upgrade!

No wonder Zhen Bing said that the formation inside the door belonged to a special kind of system that reacts to gold. The security checkpoint was originally made to detect metal ah! Of course it will react to gold.

With another security exit along with a bunch of modern security equipment as well as simplified Chinese characters, it was possible that the owner of this immortal house must be someone who also crossed over here.

"Benefactor ……" Seeing that she didn't speak for a long while, Long Aotian couldn't help but ask, "Could it be that you recognize the words on this?"

Shi Xia nodded stiffly.

Long Aotian's eyes instantly widened, he exclaimed with a face full of adoration, "Benefactor is really a genius, she actually even knows this kind of weird writing!"

"The entrance." The corner of Shi Xia's mouth twitched, "here ……"

"We have to enter this way?"

"That's …… right." Don't talk, she wants to be quiet!
