Tao Addict Ye Hongyu stood on a stone, watching the two figures disappearing from the messy stones. Her skirt was torn and the wound on her shoulders was horrible. She had been left there all alone and seemed so lonely.

She didn't recognize the messy stones were the legendary Great Blockage Formation, but she knew that these messy stones contained great terrible power, that even she felt scared.

All of a sudden, she yelled in anger. Her voice spread out and echoed among the stones, reaching higher green cliff wall and then being reflected back. The empty space made her feel more lonely.

Her angry voice suddenly stopped. She ripped a piece of cloth from her skirt and then used it to wrap her wound carefully. Not paying attention to her exposed body, she jumped off that stone and walked along a thin layer of water to the center of the lake.

Hierarch of the West-Hill Divine Palace once praised her for knowing all laws. Yet even though she was addicted to Tao practice, she still couldn't understand the talisman world. She only knew the Front Gate should be the place where the water disappeared and should be the center of the lake, yet she couldn't figure out how to pass through these messy stones to get to the place where she wanted to go.

Relying on what she saw and her psyche power, she made her own judgment. However, after taking a few steps, she found herself lost again. Those scattered stones were like peach trees on the Peach Mountain, they all had the magic power to distort space.

If she kept going in this way, there was a possibility that she would never reach the center of the lake, or that she would be stuck in the messy stones, until she lost her mind and died of thirst.

Ye Hongyu glanced backward. She was sure that at this time she still had a chance to leave this place. If she went further, she may get stuck in the stone array and might never get rid of it. Considering this, she lapsed into a long silence.

Then she noticed the moss growing on these stones and saw sword scratches that had been hiding under the moss for decades.

She vaguely thought of who the man was, and then her indifferent eyes became bright, her body quivered as she became thrilled which caused some blood to ooze out from her shoulders.

There was no doubt that for those cultivators who were qualified to know the secret, all regarded that crazy man who broke into the Front Gate alone with his sword, and beat the Devil's Doctrine, as the most powerful man in the world.

That crazy man became a West-Hill Divine Palace's enemy forever, and he was punished by Haotian. Since then nobody, including the three gods, wanted to mention his name. However, Tao Addict Yu Hongyu was addicted to improving her power through battles and dreamed of becoming the most powerful person in the world, so she admired great men so much. When she heard that story, she had worshipped him.

Among the present cultivators, she worshipped her brother the most, but among the past cultivators, she worshipped that crazy man the most. Today, she had encountered many frustrations, what's more, she was in a dilemma because of these messy stones that caused her great humiliation. In this situation, she encountered the sword scratches left by her idol, she was both shocked and speechless.

She finally saw the legendary scratches, seeing that historical scene, was like seeing the world she had worshipped and yearned for. Suddenly, a great power arose from her chest and destroyed the sharp power of the tactical array.

Through expiration and inspiration, Ye Hongyu became calm. She slowly pulled out her sword which was hanging on her waist. Using her hands to hold it and looking at the scratches on the moss, she said in a firm tone, ”Since Mr. Ke left sword style here, how can I let him down? ”

When she finished speaking, a strong wind started to blow. She focused her mind on the cleaving stones in front of her. She didn't understand tactical array and didn't know how to find a path, therefore, she would deal with it in an easier way--the cleave stones which stopped her would open a path. She was not sure whether this was right or wrong but facing the sword style of the senior, she knew she had to do it.

Daming Lake dried up, leaving stones scattered everywhere. Compared with the green valley, the lake looked so desolate which made people feel sad.

Tang stood at the lake bank, looking down at the messy stones. After a moment of silence, he said, ”Everything has changed since that man came here, so did the Stone Array Tactics.”

Tang Xiaotang stood beside her brother and also looked down at the messy stones out of curiosity. Vaguely hearing the sound of metal cleaving stones, she stuck out her tongue and said, ”That bitch is so crazy.”

Tang replied, ”People all call us crazy devils. If they want to enter our divine place to see what a devil looks like, how can they not be crazy? As the saying goes, if you are not crazy you will never become a devil. That man was also crazy at that time.”

This was the first time Tang Xiaotang had come to the divine place. She asked nervously, ”Brother, should we really let them in?”

”Our Enlightenment Doctrine is always called 'a dead place'. So even if they enter there, they may not come out alive. But in order to get the Tomes of Arcane, it seems that they will enter regardless of death.”

Thinking that Ning Que had now entered the Front Gate, Tang frowned his dashing eyebrows. There was something he couldn't understand, he murmured to himself, ”Are you just going to stand by? Do you have the confidence to save him in the divine place? Were you... really on the other side fourteen years ago?”
