Chapter 153

The Illusory Sword Array

Li Chengfeng looked at Su You, speechless, while Su You grinned apologetically. “Doesn't matter if you're not good at arrays, it's fine. We'll cross the bridge when we reach it.”

“What if we encounter an array that can transform again? Like the last time? What do we do then?”

Su You went still as wax, his expression as if he had just eaten p.o.o.p. Grand Senior Brother saved him by saying, “The array involved in today's challenge is the Illusory Sword Array.”

Su You heaved a sigh of relief. “Grand Senior Brother, what's that?”

Chengfeng wasn't sure to laugh or cry. If even Su You didn't know what that was, they were in deep trouble!

Please, I hope we won't end up like the last time…

Chengfeng privately grew alert as he turned to Zhao Xiaobao. “Stay close. Let's not separate. Remember to look out for yourself, don't rush to rescue me like the last time. I can save myself, you just protect yourself, Xiaobao.”

Zhao Xiaobao was nervous too. He nodded lightly.

Grand Senior Brother turned to Su You. “You'll know when you see it!”

Su You sulked. “Grand Senior Brother, I know us juniors are mediocre and weak compared to you but you can't just let us risk our lives every time we train!”

Grand Senior Brother huffed. He walked towards Yanjiang Hall while the rest of them looked at each other, hesitated for a moment, then finally resigned to their fate and followed.

All of them walked into the gigantic Yanjian Hall, their knees weakening upon looking at the vast, dark and mysterious stone hall.

Grand Senior Brother walked towards the door and turned to leave. “To defeat this array, the most important thing is… trust!”

Chengfeng watched as Grand Senior BRother walked out and closed the large door with a boom. They turned and looked around nervously, frightened that a few animated corpses would jump out at them.

Chengfeng was not too afraid of these zombies. Every element had another element to its detriment, for example fire spells could defeat his ability to control plants- in terms of the elements, fire defeated wood. The reanimated zombies from before were made of rock and considered of earth element. Coincidentally, the wood element defeats earth, and his ability was considered a wood attribute.

If they appeared again, he was confident to defeat them all.

At this moment, mechanical clicks and movements rumbled across Yanjian Hall. Everyone looked around, frightened, while Su You yelled, “Everyone, let's spread out! Grab a spot immediately!”

One's position within an array was important. While they did not know what array it was, once the mechanisms had been activated and it revealed itself, they would be able to tell which points they should stand in. This was a training arena anyway, the training objective was for cultivators to familiarise with the arrays as fast as possible.

Everyone quickly spread out. No matter what array appeared, they would be able to claim critical points immediately.

However, when they separated, the floor tiles did not move. Instead, with a deafening rumble, walls shot out of the ground, separating them all.

Chengfeng and Xiaobao had been standing less than two metres apart. When the stone walls appeared, they did not move, merely gawking at the walls that quickly rose to connect with the ceiling.

The stone chamber had been divided into three sections. Shrieks of surprise could be heard through the thick stone walls, dull and faint. Su You asked, “Junior Brother Chengfeng! Are you alright?”

Chengfeng was on the other side of the wall, hammering it with his fist as he yelled, “I'm fine!”

Su You yelled, “Junior Brother Chengfeng, do not use force. If this is some sort of complex mechanism, it'll…”
