Chapter 1127 (2/2)
“It seems that this Demon Emperor was no simple character!” Lin Jing’s delicate eyebrows were knit together. She then said, “I vaguely remember hearing my father mention before that the Demon Emperor was the highest of all the Demon Emperors. But fortunately, after that war was over, he disappeared with the Heavenly Emperor…”
After Lin Jing finished, she no longer mentioned this mysterious matter. Instead, her beautiful eyes surveyed the surroundings quietly.
She then said, “The Wind Mansion seems to have been swept clean. If the owner of the Wind Mansion has already fallen, it should not be difficult to obtain a Pledge. However, it is said that the evil energy of the Extraterritorial Race is extremely domineering and can invade people’s spiritual intelligences. Once the evil spirits invade, they can assimilate into evil entities, so we have to hope that the owner of the Wind Mansion has not been assimilated yet!”
“That would be very unlucky indeed!” Mu Chen pursed his lips, thinking that, even if the owner of the Wind Mansion was weak, he was still a Lower Earthly Sovereign. As such, even after thousands of years of erosion, his figure could not be underestimated, and once encountered, would surely be quite a headache!
“Go straight to the main hall, which should be in the main house here.” Mu Chen looked directly at the center of the island, where a deep azure hall that was surrounded by storms stood.
If the Pledge of the owner of the Wind Mansion was to be found, that was clearly the most probable place. Nine Nether and Lin Jing nodded, showing that they had no objections.
Mu Chen was the first to sweep out, but he moved in a strange way, sometimes fast and sometimes slow. This was because he could detect some disordered spiritual array waves that would trigger a spiritual array and cause unnecessary trouble, were he to breach them.
Such sporadic movements slowed the three, so it took them about ten minutes to reach the main hall. There, a strong storm was brewing…
“This is an Ancestral Master-level Spiritual Array.” Mu Chen stopped before the hall and looked up at it.
According to Mu Chen’s estimation, this stormy spiritual array was probably a true Ancestral Master-level Spiritual Array. Upon hearing this, Nine Nether and Lin Jing’s faces changed.
“Can you counter it?” Nine Nether asked Mu Chen, while also glancing toward Lin Jing. After all, this level of spiritual array was obviously impossible to break down with their strengths, so they could only rely on Mu Chen’s spiritual array attainments.
Mu Chen stared at the great array, pondered for a moment, then said, “Cracking it is impossible. Even though this large array has gone through thousands of years of wear and tear, it is still a true Ancestral Master-level Spiritual Array. However, we can try to deduce its change. If we can find a loophole, we should be able to get in. If we can’t, we’ll just give up. Now, help to stand guard.”
Mu Chen then sat down and flicked his fingers together. As he did so, spiritual seals began to surge out. When these spiritual seals approached the hall, they automatically melted into the space.
Nine Nether and Lin Jing saw this and retreated behind him, the latter waving her hand to summon the Ice Spiritual Doll, which formed a half circle, protecting Mu Chen within it. Under their guard, the speed of spiritual seals converging at Mu Chen’s fingertips quickened, constantly melting into the space.
His actions soon set off some traces of movement, and the storm around the hall, as if it had been stirred by something, rumbled and raged. A strong and unparalleled sense of oppression spread out, which contained amazing spiritual energy fluctuations.
This caused Nine Nether and Lin Jing’s expressions to grow solemn. If this spiritual array launched an attack on them, they would all be in big trouble!
Fortunately, the raging storm did not roll over them, and after a while, everything gradually calmed. At this time, they saw Mu Chen slowly open his eyes. His face was grave.
He then pointed his fingertips, and a trace of blood appeared out of thin air. It seemed to be surrounded by countless spiritual seals. Then, Lin Jing and Nine Nether’s eyes lit up, as outside the hall, there seemed to be an azure shade of light, which slowly caused a crack to open up!
“Go!” Mu Chen exclaimed. He then rushed into the crack, immediately followed by Nine Nether and Lin Jing.
As the three entered the crack, it gradually leveled out. Then, after a while, it eventually vanished.
However, shortly after the three entered the space, the path behind them suddenly fluctuated, as if a foot that was made of magma had stepped onto it!
