The more the An clan listened, the more they laughed. "No wonder this General Lu is a strategist. Otherwise, how could he create such an unfathomable formation?"

Mu Yanzhi asked, "What does Fourth Manor Lord mean by this?"

The An family had talked about the Eight Trigrams Forest with Zen Master Mu. Then they asked: "I wonder if Master can break through the Eight Trigrams Forest?"

When I was fighting with Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhang Shicheng, and the others back then, I relied on his strategies and formations to escape danger. This old monk has also learned these things from him, but I really can't understand it. Moreover, this old monk doesn't even know how to learn the strange techniques, so it might be difficult for him to help the Fourth Manor Lord right now. " The more the An clan listened, the more disappointed they were. Mu Yanzhi pondered for a moment before saying, "This old monk will protect a single person. Perhaps this formation can be unraveled."

The more the An family listened, the brighter their eyes lit up. "Master, please speak!"

The last time when the little miss was a hundred years old, the old monk and the old monk had talked about buddhist arts. Unexpectedly, this person seemed to know almost nothing about buddhist arts, but he was extremely proficient in the field of battle formations, astronomical geography, and other such things. Some of them even made him sigh in amazement, and perhaps had invited him here to break this magic formation. "

The more the An Family listened, the more they clapped and said, "That's right, how could I forget about him. The Yan King has been guarding the border all year round, so there are naturally many capable people under his command. Why don't I go find him and invite Grandmaster Daoyan?" With that, he turned to Gu Bai and said, "I will immediately write a letter and you will be the one to bring it to the Yan Emperor. Tell him your purpose in coming is to invite Grandmaster Daoyan to break the formation."

Gu Bai responded, "Yes, Master."

Before he could finish his sentence, Supreme Yuan stood up and said, "Fourth Manor Lord, since Supreme Yuan entered the Thousand Plum House, he has done all the work. Today, Supreme Yuan is willing to accompany you on your journey."

The An family smiled more and more, "The fourth gatekeeper is willing to go, I am more than willing. Alright, the two of you pack up and set off immediately!"

Three days later, the two of them arrived in Beiping at the speed of a horse. When the King of Swallow, Zhu Di, heard that An Yue had sent someone over, he hurriedly went out to welcome him. Priest Gu Bai explained the purpose of his visit and placed An Jieyu's handwritten request in his heart. After Zhu Di finished reading the letter, he smiled and said, "Since benefactor has come for a favor, I will naturally do my best to help out and invite Grandmaster Daoyan over." Zhang Yu responded and left the room.

Not long after, Dao Yan walked in from outside and met with the two of them. After exchanging a few words of greeting, Gu Bo explained his purpose of coming and told Dao Yan about the incident in the Eight Trigrams Forest. Dao Yan nodded and said, "I didn't expect that this person would set up this formation."

After listening, Zhu Di asked, "How did the master know about this formation?"

The Dao Yan smiled and said, "According to what I heard, if I was right, this formation should be called the Empty Valley Bamboo Forest Array. It should be used to disturb the mind of those who break this formation to guard the enemy, but no matter how much this array changes, this bamboo forest will not move. Moreover, there is only one exit and entrance to this array, but because of the change in the surrounding environment, it will disturb the mind of those who break through the formation, which is one of the biggest drawbacks of this formation. As long as the surrounding environment does not change, breaking this formation is much easier."

After listening, Gu Bai came to a sudden realization. No wonder he felt like he came out from the same place after walking around for so long. He asked Daoyan after listening, "Then does Master have a way to break the array?"

Daoyan laughed. "To break through this formation, all you have to do is cover your eyes and enter the formation, preventing the surrounding environment from changing and changing your mind. Breaking through this formation will be much easier."

After Supreme Yuan heard this, he asked, "But if Master were to cover his eyes, how would we be able to find the divine sword?"

Daoyan laughed, "The other great drawback of this formation is that after it is set up, even the person who sets it up must follow this technique in order to enter into the formation. If what this old monk says is correct, I'm afraid that Taoist Gu Bai has only made a turn at the outermost layer of this formation and changed back."

Gu Bai's heart turned cold as he thought to himself, "I didn't expect that after walking around in the bamboo forest for more than twenty days, I've only gone around the outermost layer of the bamboo forest."

As Gu Bai was thinking, he heard Dao Yan continue, "And the person who set up this array, if he wanted to use this array to hide the godly sword, he would have to leave an empty space in the middle of the array without any area for the Eight Trigrams. This place should be where the godly sword is hidden."

After Gu Bai heard this, he immediately said, "Then let's not delay this any further. I hope that Grandmaster will follow the two of us and bring out the divine sword."

After finishing his words, Gu Bai looked over at Zhu Di. Zhu Di smiled and said, "Since Master is able to break through this formation, then I naturally have to help out in this matter. I hope Master can make a trip."

Daoyan, after hearing this, laughed. "In that case, allow this old monk to pack up and follow you on your journey."

That night, the three of them found a random inn to stay. Gu Bai asked Dao Yan for guidance on the Five Elements Art, the Mysterious Gate Escape Armor and other things, which caused Supreme Yuan to feel bored, so he found an excuse to go out and look at the night sky. The three of them went on their way during the day and rested at night.

As soon as the three of them entered the Shanxi boundary, they saw from afar that An Teng had brought his men to greet them. This was because the An clan had already informed An Teng and the others of this matter, and ordered An Teng to cooperate with Gu Bai in all his activities in Shanxi.

An Teng had not yet established any sects, and his identity was that of a wealthy merchant. Gu Bai and the others were led by An Teng's underlings to the AnTeng Mansion, so when An Teng saw everyone, he was overjoyed. He welcomed everyone into the mansion and smiled, "Last time, I bid farewell to the Taoist Priest and the Grandmaster.

Gu Bai smiled and said, "With the good fortune of Brother An and Mister An, this humble Taoist/poor monk's life is pretty good."

When An Teng heard this, he smiled at Supreme Yuan and said, "I presume this must be Yuan Zun, the Fourth Imperial Protector. The Fourth Manor Lord mentioned in his letter that the Fourth Imperial Protector would come to the Han Residence together with the Daoist Master. It is a great fortune for An Teng to see the Supreme Protector today."

Supreme Yuan said that he did not dare to say anything to the three of them. He then smiled and said, "Since the three of you have come from afar, you must be hungry. I have already ordered people to prepare some food and wine. Everyone, please." With that, he made a "please" gesture, and the three of them went to eat with him.
