The vibration of the triangular jade pendant made Fang Chen extremely excited.
Then, he quickly moved forward according to the guidance of the triangular jade pendant.
The Divine Blade Mountain was huge. Fang Chen moved forward quickly, and from time to time, he would see the corpses of some human martialists.
Judging from the clothes of these martialists, they were basically disciples of some large Sect.
"This Divine Blade Mountain is extremely dangerous."
Fang Chen whispered as he walked.
After walking for about an hour, Fang Chen arrived at the second checkpoint. This checkpoint was an array formation.
At this moment, in front of Fang Chen, there was a large, grey array formation. Waves of wild aura escaped from the array formation.
Standing outside, Fang Chen could see that there was a figure in the array formation. He was trying his best to break the array formation, but he seemed to be trapped in the array formation.
"Saber Body Martialist!"
Fang Chen recognized this martialist. He was the Saber Body Martialist that Fang Chen had met before. He had not expected that even he would be trapped in the array formation.
"I wonder how powerful the array formation is at the second checkpoint."
Fang Chen muttered to himself. Then, he took a step forward and entered the array formation.
The moment Fang Chen entered the formation, he suddenly discovered that his surroundings were in a state of confusion. A wild aura instantly pressed in from all directions. "Reas!"
"This is …"
Fang Chen's heart was filled with shock. This was because he realized that this array formation was not an ordinary array formation, but a Profound-Grade array formation.
As an array master, Fang Chen naturally knew how powerful a Profound-Grade array formation was. An array master who could set up a Profound-Grade array formation was at least an array grandmaster.
"It's actually a Profound-Grade array formation." Fang Chen was shocked. The tyranny of a Profound-Grade array formation was not something that he could break.
Fang Chen tried hard to calm his excitement. He saw the Saber Body Martialist in front of him, and the latter also noticed him.
Although the Saber Body Martial Artist's strength was tyrannical, he was still trapped in the array. It seemed that he did not know much about arrays.
In any case, Fang Chen was also an Array Master. Furthermore, he had once read the Array Dao Foundation Scroll. Thus, he had a relatively good understanding of Array Dao.
Therefore, Fang Chen recovered from his initial shock. He carefully observed the array formation and began to look for a way to break it.
After observing for about a minute, Fang Chen was surprised to find that the structure of this array formation was very similar to a certain array formation that he had seen in a book about array formations.
"There's a gray aura within the formation that gives people a stifling feeling. The formation bases are exposed, and there are a total of eighteen of them. But why do I feel like this formation is exactly the same as the Golden Light Formation?" When Fang Chen thought of the Golden Light Formation, his heart was filled with shock.
Then, he quickly recalled the introduction of the Great Golden Light Array that he had read in the Array Formation Comprehension book.
After a long time, a wild smile appeared on Fang Chen's face. This Mysterious Level Array Formation before him was exactly the same as the Great Golden Light Array that he had read in the Array Formation Comprehension book.
"It's actually the Great Golden Light Array!" Fang Chen's eyes flickered as he spoke excitedly.
After learning that this was the Great Golden Light Array, Fang Chen was very excited. This was because the Array Formation Comprehension book contained a detailed introduction of the Great Golden Light Array. Most importantly, the Array Formation Comprehension book contained an introduction to the flaws and loopholes of the Great Golden Light Array.
That powerhouse had been an Almighty Array Master. He had practically stood at the pinnacle of Array Dao. He had painstakingly written the Array Formation Comprehension book with his life's work. This book had recorded a series of experiences of this Almighty Array Master before his death, as well as his understanding of various Array Formations and even the flaws of various Array Formations.
"There are two flaws in the Great Golden Light Array."
Fang Chen searched for the flaws in the Great Golden Light Array according to the records in the Array Formation Comprehension book. It didn't take long for him to find one flaw. As for the other flaw mentioned in the book, Fang Chen didn't find it.
However, even if he found a loophole, it was enough for Fang Chen to pass.
"It seems like those large factions still have some secrets about Array Formations in their hands," Fang Chen said softly as he surveyed his surroundings.
Although there were many corpses in the Great Golden Light Array, there were no other martialists besides the Saber Body martialists. This meant that although many disciples of the large factions had died, they had all left the Great Golden Light Array in the end.
After finding the flaw in the Great Golden Light Array, Fang Chen quickly shuttled through the Great Golden Light Array. At the same time, Fang Chen's actions were seen by the Saber Body martialist.
When the Saber Body martialist saw this scene, his eyes flickered and a trace of astonishment appeared on his face.
"Could he be an Array Formation Master?" the Saber Body martialist muttered to himself.
Then, a thought appeared in the Saber Body martialist's mind. He took the initiative to approach Fang Chen.
Before long, the Saber Body martialist arrived at Fang Chen's side. This was the first time he had spoken to Fang Chen. "Brother, are you an Array Formation Master?"
When he heard the Saber Body martialist's words, Fang Chen nodded his head. "That's right."
"If I'm not wrong, you must have found a way to break the array," the Saber Body martialist said.
Fang Chen glanced at the Saber Body martialist and nodded his head.
"I wonder if you can take me out?" the Saber Body martialist's eyes flickered as he asked hurriedly.
Fang Chen muttered to himself but didn't say anything. The Saber Body martialist was a little anxious as he said, "Brother, if you can take me out, I, Zhou Yan, will definitely reward you greatly."
Zhou Yan was the name of the Saber Body martialist. Fang Chen carefully thought about it. It seemed that there was no such person among the younger generation of the Nanling Land.
"I can take you out," Fang Chen said.
"However, if I need your help in the Divine Saber Mountain, I hope you can help me."
When Zhou Yan heard this, he nodded his head and said, "I, Zhou Yan, am a man of my word."
When he heard this, Fang Chen nodded his head in satisfaction. This Zhou Yan didn't seem like a bad person.
After that, Fang Chen led Zhou Yan forward quickly. Before long, Fang Chen used the loophole in the Great Golden Light Array and successfully came out of it.
Hu …
They had passed the second checkpoint. During this time, the way Zhou Yan looked at Fang Chen had changed greatly.
When he had first met Fang Chen, Zhou Yan had thought that Fang Chen was just an ordinary martialist. However, he hadn't expected that Fang Chen was actually a powerful Array Formation Master.
Even he, Zhou Yan, couldn't break out of the array so easily.
"Brother, what's your name?" Zhou Yan asked with a smile.
"Fang Chen," Fang Chen said.
"Fang Chen, I'll remember you. I'll definitely return this favor. I'll take my leave first." After Zhou Yan finished speaking, he laughed heartily and disappeared from Fang Chen's sight.
Fang Chen was left alone and continued forward.
"When I have time, I must thoroughly study the Array Formation Comprehension Book and then raise my Array Formation Cultivation," Fang Chen said to himself.
If he could raise his Array Formation Level to the Array Formation Grandmaster Realm, he would be able to set up a Spirit Array Formation unexpectedly during a battle. This way, it would be easy to deal with the enemy.
Fang Chen looked around and continued forward.
At this time, he had only passed two checkpoints. There was still one more checkpoint waiting for him.
At this moment, on the majestic peak of the Divine Blade Mountain, cultivators from various major factions were standing quietly. Of course, there were also some loose cultivators among them.
"Everyone, we, the major powers, possess a total of seven keys. We do not know where the eighth key is. If you all possess the eighth key, please take it out so that we can open the old site of the Heaven Raising Gate together," Suddenly, the master of the Divine Statue School loudly said.
On the mountain peak, countless cultivators were discussing spiritedly. They were also curious as to who had obtained the eighth key.
Just as everyone was discussing, a figure suddenly shot up from the bottom of the mountain peak. In a short while, the figure arrived at the top of the mountain.
When she saw the figure, a girl in green cried out, "Zhou Yan, why are you only here now?"
When Zhou Yan heard this, a trace of embarrassment appeared on his face. He immediately said, "I wasted some time in the Great Golden Light Array."
Then, Zhou Yan walked to the top of the mountain peak. Among the various factions present, no one knew the origin of Zhou Yan except for the mysterious Black Devil Palace.
As for the girl in green who had just spoken to Zhou Yan, she was a young disciple of the Black Devil Palace. Her name was Zhou Qingqing.
"Qingqing, has the eighth key appeared?" After Zhou Yan greeted the upper echelon of the Black Devil Palace, he immediately asked Zhou Qingqing.
Zhou Qingqing shook her head and said, "The eighth key still hasn't appeared."
"Without the eighth key, the old site of the Yang Tian Gate cannot be opened," said Zhou Yan.
Many of the factions present knew that Zhou Yan was a disciple of the Black Devil Palace. However, they didn't know that Zhou Yan was an outstanding figure of the Northern Ridge's younger generation. He was acquainted with the Black Devil Palace's Zhou Qingqing. This time, he had come to the Black Devil Palace as a guest after receiving news of the Yang Tian Gate.
On the mountain peak, the Lianyun Fort Master's eyes flickered as he looked at Zhou Yan and asked in a low voice, "Divine Statue Sect Master, do you know this child?"
The Divine Statue Sect Master slightly shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.
Just at this time, the Qin family head suddenly said, "Zhou Yan? Could he be one of the peak geniuses of the Northern Ridge's younger generation, Zhou Yan?"
Hearing the Qin family head's words, the upper echelons of the various large factions all looked at him questioningly.
"A few years ago, this old man went to the Northern Ridge once. At that time, I heard the name Zhou Yan. Now that I think about it, this Zhou Yan is most likely the outstanding member of the younger generation in the Northern Ridge." The Qin Clan Head carefully said.
The various factions all stared at Zhou Yan. This was the Southern Ridge. It wouldn't be good for the Northern Ridge's people to interfere.
Huoniu Mongols was a straightforward martial practitioner. After learning that Zhou Yan was a Northern Ridge martial practitioner, he directly questioned the Black Devil Palace.
"Black Devil Palace, why did you bring a Northern Ridge martial practitioner here?" asked Huoniu Mongols coldly.
Hearing that, the Black Devil Palace's people looked at the black-robed old man at the front. This black-robed old man was the leader of the Black Devil Palace.
Although he was an old man, his strength was unrivaled in the entire Southern Ridge.
"Who said that the Northern Ridge's people can't come here?" asked the black-robed old man indifferently.
"Hmph, the Yang Tian Gate's old site has appeared in the Southern Ridge. It's naturally a fight between the Southern Ridge's martial practitioners. How can we allow the Northern Ridge's martial practitioners to interfere?" said Huoniu Mongols.
