Chapter 272: The Little Chicken’s Successor

If it was underneath a different mountain, no one would care if their way out was blockaded. But at this location, everyone knew what having their way out blocked meant. This was where the Scholar’s Heart was, so if anyone dared to carelessly disturb the mountain around them, it might cause the Scholar’s Heart to explode.
”Everyone don’t move, this is at least a Grade 7 trap array. The more you move, the deeper you sink in.” Xing Huang’s voice echoed out, and everyone could hear the fear in his voice. A Grade 7 trap array, if there weren’t anyone controlling it, the few True God Stage experts might still have a chance to escape.
But at this moment, not only was there someone controlling the array, it was also beneath the Scholar’s Heart, hence none of those trapped there would likely survive.
Mo Wuji not only did not move, but had already sat down. Once the trap array appeared, his heart sank. In terms of array dao, he was not any lousier than Xing Huang, even much better than Xing Huang for some areas. Since Xing Huang could recognise that this was a Grade 7 trap array, wouldn’t he be able to do the same?
He knew then that whatever he said had no use, so he had to quickly determine how to break this array. Otherwise, the first person Jing Gumu killed would be him.
After all, in the tray array his cultivation level was the lowest. Even if the other four were trapped, it would not be that easy for Jing Gumu to kill them. To kill Mo Wuji was indeed easily achievable.
Mo Wuji’s spiritual will quickly seeped to the surroundings of the trap array, and after he captured a few void runes, a scream almost escaped his mouth.
This was a sense of joy originating from deep within his heart, because this rune was very familiar. It was from Chu Xingzi’s hands, and with slight modifications.
When Chu Xingzi was initially trapped under the ice mountain, he listed out all the high grade arrays that trapped him in. The reason he couldn’t leave the trap array below the ice mountain was that the Little Chicken had combined various types of trap arrays together to form a new trap array. The new trap array was never broken by Chu Xingzi, or at least Mo Wuji did not see Chu Xingzi’s solution for it.
The trap array that was formed by the runes before him was of the poorest quality out of all the top grade runes that trapped Chu Xingzi.
Mo Wuji had always been studying Chu Xingzi’s Array Dao, so how could he not recognise when such familiar runes were presented to him. If it were other Grade 7 trap arrays, it would not be that easy for him to even find a starting point. But for this trap array, it was a joke to him.
Logically speaking, as Chu Xingzi had been trapped under the ice mountain for so many years, it was impossible for him to have passed on his array dao to Jing Gumu. Hence Jing Gumu probably learnt this array dao from that Little Chicken that studied Chu Xingzi’s array dao then trapped him.
After throwing out a few array flags, the void runes separated into two sides, forming a tunnel in front of him.
”Alliance Head Mo…” The first to appear was Feng Zhe, and he stared at Mo Wuji with a surprised look, not understanding how Mo Wuji could open a tunnel in such a strong trap array.
Waving his hand, Mo Wuji signalled to him to remain silent, before throwing over ten flags out, forming another three tunnels quickly.
Feng Zhenqiu, Xing Huang, and Fang Zhentian were moving around like headless chickens, but now they rushed over once they saw Mo Wuji.
”Sect Head, you’re really amazing, to be able to open such a high grade trap array…”
Xing Huang’s voice was a little loud, and Mo Wuji had to raise his hands to stop him, ”Defender Xing, I’ve coincidentally seen this trap array before, and the methods I used to open it is a little weird, so I believe that Little Chicken...no, that Jing Gumu must not have noticed it yet. Everyone please wait for me here, after I’ve saved Linglong, I will give it to Jing Gumu.”
It was Chu Xingzi that had broken this trap array, and in the messages he left behind, he said that even the Little Chicken did not know that he had escaped the trap array after breaking it.
Of course, Chu Xingzi was not able to break Little Chicken’s combination trap array. Who Little Chicken was, Mo Wuji did not know, but he was sure that Jing Gumu would definitely not be able to match up with a single hair on Little Chicken.
The few of them nodded as they looked at Mo Wuji in joy. Thankfully their Alliance Head was strong in array dao, otherwise, they would have died unfairly.
Mo Wuji grabbed and threw out another seven to eight array flags, and soon the area above them became visible. Beside the green gas, the floating Linglong came into sight.
At the void position, Mo Wuji rapidly drew many runes, causing the originally floating Linglong to plummet downwards abruptly. He then quickly went forward to catch her in his arms.
”Dean Feng, I will open up a tunnel in a while. Carry Linglong and leave through it swiftly.” As Mo Wuji spoke, he delivered Linglong into Feng Zhenqiu’s arms.
”What about you?” Feng Zhenqiu asked.
”Mo Wuji chuckled, ”I will leave too, but I’ll be the last one to leave. Since this guy lured us here, how could we leave without giving him a present?”
