Chapter 657 – The Scum Is Black-Hearted

"She is really bold." Cheng Sheng added.

"'Distance Perceiving Formation'?" They asked.

"Distance Perceiving Formation is a kind of formation that enables someone to see and hear something from a certain distance." Fei Yin explained.

"Is this possible?" they asked with doubt in their eyes.

Fei Yin just smiled.

"How does this work?" Pai Lie curiously asked with his eyes sparkling in interest.

They all looked at each other. They almost forgot that Pai Lie is the other master-level in Array Drawing. So, he naturally would be interested in formations.

"One has to match the two formations, with one formation in the person who will use the formation while the other formation is to be used to the people, objects or other beings that the user wanted to see and hear." Cheng Sheng explained.

"'formation'? But, we didn't see any formation used by Cui Xiao and the other Xinfaxian Sect disciples?" Jing Cheng said.

"That is because there are two ways to create the Distance Perceiving Formation." Cheng Sheng answered. "One way is by luring. The other way is – " he looked at the Xinfaxian Sect disciples and smiled. " – on the spot." He said.

"'on the spot'?!" they all exclaimed in surprise.

Cheng Sheng nodded in affirmation. "Luring will make the other participants suspicious, especially now that they are competing fiercely against each other, thus they would have their guards up higher than before against the others." he explained.

They nodded in understanding. "I see… then, how did they do it on the spot?" they asked, puzzled.

"Simple." Cheng Sheng grinned. "The Xinfaxian Sect disciples only need to match up the two formations – one on Cui Xiao, and the other is on them." he answered. "Of course, this is more difficult that the luring since, in the luring, the two formations already have been created and they are only waiting for the objects or people to fall into the formation. Meanwhile, on the spot is on the spot. They have to synchronize the user and her targets together, which requires a high tacit understanding between the user and the people who will create the formation using the targets." He explained.

Everyone felt their heads hurt and they also felt dizzy. As expected, formations are similar to arrays, which are complicated.

Even Pai Lie barely understood it. But, this didn't dampen his enthusiasm. "What do you mean by 'using the targets'?" he asked. "Could it be…" his eyes widened. "The targets are the ones who will be creating the formation themselves, and without their knowing?!" he exclaimed.

The others were shocked. "What?!" they looked at him in disbelief. Who would do this?! Are they idiots?! They thought.

Cheng Sheng evilly grinned. 'Elder Pai is right… indeed, in this case, it was the targets who create the second formation themselves." He said.

Everyone who knows how credible Cheng Sheng's words are when it comes to pitting others. "…" FCK! The other participants created the pit themselves and fall into it?! They thought. They are really idiot! Ignorant idiots! They thought and inwardly cried.

"You are too black-hearted!" Sun Yu finally can't help but say after he heard that his disciples were pitted again.

The others nodded in agreement. Cheng Sheng is really black-hearted! How many is this that he pitted the participants? He didn't even let off his nephews! They thought and looked at Chen Han with pity in their eyes.

Cheng Sheng just shrugged. "But it wasn't me who made this?" he said and innocently blinked at them.

Everyone. "…" indeed… he is right. It wasn't him but Cui Xiao. They thought as their lips twitched in annoyance, can't refute what Cheng Sheng said.

"Hahahaha!" Lei Ling can't help but laugh.

"But… how did this happen?" Qian Lin asked, puzzled. "How can the participants not know that they are falling into a trap… and even make the second formation?" he said.

The others started. "That's right… how can this happen? Too magical?" they said.

"Ah." Yu Wen muttered when he realized it.

"What is it, sect leader Yu?" they immediately asked.

Ling Xi's lip also twitched when he noticed it. "Yun-er ah…" he sighed in helplessness. He can't believe his nephew has gone bad!

"The… bottles." Yu Wen answered in a small voice as he looked away. "The magic pills bottles as well as potions…" he said. "And… maybe the talismans, too." He added.

Everyone fell silent for a moment before they finally exploded. "Cheng! Sheng!" they shouted as they glared at Cheng Sheng who has a helpless expression on his face.

"I didn't do this!" Cheng Sheng said and frowned.

Fei Yin chuckled as he patted Cheng Sheng's back to comfort him, as if Cheng Sheng is a cat and Fei Yin is fixing his ruffled hair due to anger.

Everyone. "…" indeed… it wasn't Cheng Sheng who made this pit against the participants… they thought with their brows twitching in frustration.

"What are your disciples planning to do?" Sun Yu asked as he looked at Xie Lan with a suspicious gaze.

Xie Lan grinned. "How will we know? We aren't them, nor are we roundworms in their stomachs to know what they are thinking." He said.

Everyone. "…" what the hell! They thought. Their faces darkened.

Fan Wen hit Xie Lan. Then, Fan Wen looked at Sun Yu and the others with an apologetic smile. "Our disciples are not violent! They won't do something that will hurt their fellow participants!" he assured them.

They all sighed in relief. Although Xie Lan has an irritating personality, they know that the Xinfaxian Sect is an upright sect. Fan Wen is also a good person, so they trust him, and their disciples whom they raised.

"They must have done something with the magic pills, potions and talismans…" Tang Teng muttered as he combed his beard. "I mean, not their bottles! Their bottles, and not the magic pills and potions themselves!" he immediately clarified when Xie Lan glared at him.

"So, those bottles… it must have something to do with this second formation?" Li Nanzi as they all watched the chess pieces on the board moved according to how the other participants move in the map.

Then, suddenly, they saw Cui Xiao spoke, but there was no voice.

"Huh? What is she doing?" He Run asked, puzzled, when they saw Cui Xiao continues to speak, but there is still no voice.

"Did she become mute?" Hui Qiu worriedly asked.

"No." Jing Rui's brows knitted as he observed Cui Xiao who is watching the chess pieces move in the chessboard. "She is communicating!" he told them.

"'communicating'?" they asked and looked at him.

"Ah!" Qian Shan suddenly exclaimed. "Could it be, Cui Xiao is communicating with her fellow disciples, telling them where are the other participants located?" he said.

Everyone started when they realized it.

"So… this is how they will use the Distance Perceiving Formation?" Su Wan was surprised. "I thought that they will launch a sneak attack on the other participants…" he said.

The other sect leaders also worried about this.

"I told you that our disciples aren't violent!" Fan Wen said and sighed.

Sun Yi smiled while Wu Yuan nodded in agreement. Indeed, they saw that the Xinfaxian Sect disciples were avoiding the other participants as they resume killing the demons.

"Avoiding battles is the best choice! Not only fighting will consume your energy, it will also consume time to be spent in farming for points instead." Qian Tian said.

"That's right!" Chen Han nodded in agreement.

The others smiled and were about to agree, too, when they suddenly saw a shadow flashed by and killed the demon when Qian Jue and Qian Meng were about to surround the demon. The angle was very tricky since the area is dark and the demon was located in a darker area since it was hidden. Thus, Qian Jue and Qian Meng who were preparing to strike against the demon, were caught off-guard and didn't see the figure that killed the demon.

But, this time, everyone was closely watching so they saw who it was. "QI LAN?!" they exclaimed in shock. They didn't expect that it was Qi Lan who are stealing some kills from the other participants!

"Well… he is good. He is very fast." Lei Qing said, looking at Qi Lan's figure with an appreciative gaze.

The others can't help but agree with what she said. Qi Lan is indeed very fast which was why the other participants didn't sense him and he caught them off-guard. Not to mention that he is also cleverly hiding from the light so the other participants didn't recognize him.

But, he should know that this tactic wouldn't last long and the other participants would raise their guard higher later.

"How can Qi Lan steal the others' prey so suddenly?" Xi Ming asked, surprised.

The others also thought about this. Then, suddenly, their gazes fell on the Xinfaxian Sect when they thought of something.. It couldn't be…?! They thought as their eyes widened. Qi Lan is in cahoots with their disciples?!
