Fang Chen had originally intended to carefully observe the mysterious array formation before entering. However, when he saw that familiar figure, he resolutely entered the array formation.
"How is this possible?"
Fang Chen's eyes were filled with shock. His heart was in turmoil. The scene before him was too strange.
"Why is he here?"
Although that figure had disappeared in a flash, Fang Chen had caught a glimpse of that figure's face. He was certain that he had not recognized the wrong person.
Swoosh!
Fang Chen entered the array formation. Suddenly, a powerful aura swept over him. Within the array formation, a dusky aura was everywhere, making Fang Chen unable to understand the situation around him.
"This is an Illusory Array."
Fang Chen frowned slightly. Soon after, he calmed himself down and surveyed his surroundings. After entering the Illusory Array, Fang Chen discovered how terrifying this Illusory Array was.
Huff! Huff!
Inside the Illusory Array, gusts of chilly wind blew past, causing Fang Chen to frown. Suddenly, Fang Chen sensed a wild chilly wind blowing towards him from afar.
Crash!
Fang Chen activated his Three-Star Dao Body and his physical defense was instantly raised to the extreme. When the chilly wind blew past his body, he felt pain all over his body.
"This Illusory Array is too strange."
Fang Chen thought to himself. This Illusory Array was not just a simple Illusory Array. There were also some Offensive Array Formations mixed within the Illusory Array.
Huff! Huff!
The wild chilly wind constantly blew past Fang Chen's body. Fortunately, Fang Chen's physical body had reached the Three-Star Dao Body, so he was barely able to withstand the attack of the chilly wind.
At this moment, what puzzled Fang Chen even more was how he was able to withstand the attack of the chilly wind.
"No matter what, let's find the array base first." Fang Chen pondered for a moment before saying.
Although Fang Chen didn't know much about arrays, he had come into contact with them in the past. The most important parts of an array were the array base and the control center. Once the array base was destroyed, a loophole would appear in the array. If the control center was destroyed, the array would instantly shatter.
Because of the familiar figure he had just seen, Fang Chen entered the illusory array. After some analysis by Fang Chen, he was ready to search for the array base.
Just as Fang Chen was searching for the formation base, the Little Mouse suddenly jumped out of his shoulder with a whoosh and entered the gray fog.
Fang Chen wanted to stop him, but it was too late.
Fang Chen was a little worried about the Little Mouse, but he knew that the Little Mouse would not enter the gray fog for no reason.
Time passed bit by bit. In the blink of an eye, a quarter of an hour had passed. During this time, Fang Chen had not found the array base.
This illusory array was much more powerful than he had imagined. The array base was too difficult to find.
However, at a certain moment, Fang Chen received an unexpected reward. The Little Mouse suddenly appeared.
After the Little Mouse appeared, it chirped at Fang Chen and gestured with its little paws, indicating that Fang Chen should follow it.
Although Fang Chen was puzzled, he still followed the Little Mouse. He didn't know where the Little Mouse was taking him, so he kept moving forward.
After the Little Mouse led Fang Chen forward for about three minutes, it suddenly stopped. The Little Mouse turned to look at Fang Chen and chirped while pointing at the ground.
"You're saying that there's a corner of the array base here?" Fang Chen looked at the Little Mouse and said with a face full of shock.
The Little Mouse heard this and quickly nodded.
Looking at the smile on the Little Mouse's face, Fang Chen decided to believe in the Little Mouse. He then took out the Hidden Star Sword and activated the seventh level of the Water and Fire Sword Technique to attack the place where the Little Mouse was pointing.
Boom!
Just as Fang Chen's Hidden Star Sword fiercely attacked the ground, the entire illusory array suddenly trembled.
In the next moment, in the illusory array, the gray fog around Fang Chen instantly dissipated, and Fang Chen's surroundings actually became bright.
"This is …"
Fang Chen's face was full of joy. "It's really a corner of the array base."
Fang Chen was very excited. He didn't think that the Little Mouse would be able to easily find the location of the array base. Now it would be even easier for him to break the illusory array.
Fang Chen urged his Three Star Dao Body to resist the cold wind while relying on the Little Mouse's guidance to destroy the array base.
After about an hour, Fang Chen had already destroyed five array bases. With Fang Chen as the center, everything within a few hundred meters was clear. The more he destroyed the array bases, the more Fang Chen discovered that the mysterious valley had already appeared in front of him.
However, just as the Little Mouse was leading Fang Chen to destroy the sixth array base, a figure suddenly appeared and attacked Fang Chen without any explanation.
Bang bang bang!
Caught off guard, Fang Chen was hit by the figure and his body was constantly pushed back. But when he stabilized his body, his pupils suddenly shrank.
"Xiahou Wu!"
Fang Chen involuntarily cried out. He didn't dare imagine that the person attacking him was Xiahou Wu.
Just now, Fang Chen had seen Xiahou Wu's figure flash by outside the valley and had entered the illusory array.
But what he hadn't expected was that Xiahou Wu would take the initiative to attack him.
Swish!
The sword in Xiahou Wu's hand shot out a cold light. In the next instant, Xiahou Wu unleashed a fierce attack, constantly attacking Fang Chen.
"Xiahou Wu, I am Fang Chen!" shouted Fang Chen as he used the Hidden Star Sword to block Xiahou Wu's attacks.
Xiahou Wu acted as if he hadn't heard Fang Chen's words. He was like a walking corpse, constantly attacking Fang Chen. Furthermore, his attacks were extremely tyrannical. Even Fang Chen was unable to block them for a long time.
Bang!
During one of their attacks, Fang Chen used the seventh level of the Transformative Flame Water Sword Art to defeat Xiahou Wu. Then he roared, "Xiahou Wu, what happened to you?!"
When Fang Chen had seen Xiahou Wu's figure flash by outside the illusory array, he had been extremely shocked. At that time, he had personally seen Greed and Huo Huo join hands to force Xiahou Wu down the cliff. He had thought that Xiahou Wu was definitely dead. But he hadn't expected Xiahou Wu to appear in this illusory array.
And most importantly, Xiahou Wu didn't seem to remember him at all.
"Could it be that he's being controlled?!"
Fang Chen suddenly thought of this. Then he carefully observed Xiahou Wu. Fang Chen was shocked to find that the corner of Xiahou Wu's eyes was filled with the aura of the Yellow Spring Sect.
"This is the aura of the Yellow Spring Sect!" Fang Chen involuntarily cried out. "Could it be that Xiahou Wu is being controlled by the remnants of the Yellow Spring Sect?!"
When he had discovered the aura of the Yellow Spring Sect on Xiahou Wu's body, Fang Chen had instantly determined that this illusory array had something to do with the remnants of the Yellow Spring Sect.
Although Fang Chen was very suspicious, the most important thing right now was to control Xiahou Wu.
After all, Xiahou Wu and Fang Chen were both disciples of the Reverence Sword Sect. Fang Chen couldn't bear to kill him.
Xiu
Beams of cold light collided in the sky one after another, producing deafening noises.
In the blink of an eye, Fang Chen and Xiahou Wu had been fighting for fifteen minutes. The more they fought, the more shocked Fang Chen became. What had Xiahou Wu experienced at the bottom of the cliff? Why had his battle strength become so strong?
If Fang Chen's guess was correct, Xiahou Wu's cultivation level had also stepped into the ninth level of the Qi Hai realm. His strength was on par with Fang Chen's.
After a fierce battle, the Star Concealing Sword in Fang Chen's hand gradually gained the upper hand. In one of the clashes, Fang Chen's Star Concealing Sword defeated Xiahou Wu.
"Now."
Suddenly, Fang Chen roared. The red level soul in his mind instantly exploded, floating in the sky and turning into a flame.
"Great Luo Soul Killing Flame."
Fang Chen used the time when Xiahou Wu retreated to display the Great Luo Soul Killing Flame.
Immediately, the flame drilled into Xiahou Wu's mind and attacked his soul.
"Ah!"
Xiahou Wu let out a miserable cry. He was trying his best to resist Fang Chen's soul attack. At this moment, Fang Chen took advantage of this opportunity to appear in front of Xiahou Wu with the Star Concealing Sword in his hand.
Xiu
Xiahou Wu wanted to attack Fang Chen, but Fang Chen's sword pierced his arm, causing blood to flow out.
Bang!
In the next instant, Fang Chen clenched his fist and fiercely punched Xiahou Wu's head, causing him to instantly faint.
After Xiahou Wu fainted, Fang Chen put away the Star Concealing Sword and carefully inspected Xiahou Wu's body.
If he didn't inspect, he wouldn't know. But once he did, he was shocked.
Within Xiahou Wu's Dantian Qi Sea, there was a pure Yellow Springs Sect aura. This aura was extremely evil, as if it was controlling Xiahou Wu.
"Could it be this pure Yellow Springs Sect aura?" Fang Chen was puzzled.
After weighing the pros and cons, Fang Chen decided to use his own boundless Spirit Qi to refine the pure Yellow Springs Sect aura within Xiahou Wu's Dantian Qi Sea.
Hiss!
Fang Chen's hands pressed against Xiahou Wu's body. A wild attractive force gradually entered Xiahou Wu's body.
An hour later, the pure Yellow Springs Sect aura within Xiahou Wu's Dantian Qi Sea disappeared. At this time, a ball of light appeared above Fang Chen's palm.
This ball of light was the pure Yellow Springs Sect aura that had been absorbed from Xiahou Wu's Dantian Qi Sea.
Just as Fang Chen was pondering how to refine this aura, the Little Mouse suddenly jumped onto Fang Chen's palm and swallowed the ball of light.
After swallowing the ball of light, a layer of purple light appeared on the Little Mouse's body, but it disappeared in a flash. Then the Little Mouse rubbed its stomach as if it was enjoying itself. Finally, it raised its head and beamed at Fang Chen.
The Little Mouse stood on Fang Chen's palm, its little paws spread out as if it had nothing to do with itself.
The pure Yellow Springs Sect aura was extremely vicious. Fang Chen didn't dare to act on his own, so he was pondering how to refine this Yellow Springs Sect aura.
However, the Little Mouse's casual action had solved a huge problem for Fang Chen.
Fang Chen stared with his eyes wide open and his mouth agape.
