"Give the item to me."
In the drizzle, Mu Chen's body tensed up as he stared in front of him. At that location, a figure holding a flower umbrella gradually appeared. It was a slightly thin man. His face was extremely feminine and his thin lips were like a blade that emitted a cold aura.
Mu Chen stared at the unfamiliar feminine man and a sense of danger surged in his heart. He narrowed his eyes and said: "You shouldn't be someone from the Liu Territory, right?
Why did you find me? "
"Ohoho, I am indeed not someone from the Liu Territory. It's just that someone paid me a large amount of money."
The feminine man faintly smiled. He gently turned the flower umbrella in his hand and pursed his thin lips: "You can call me Ji Zong."
"Ji Zong?
The Man in the Rain, Ji Zong?! "
Mu Chen's pupils slightly shrank. This name was not any less famous than Xue Tu in the Northern Spiritual Realm. Of course, this did not mean that Ji Zong was stronger than Xue Tu. His own strength should only be at the Spiritual Rotation Stage Initial Phase. However, he had another identity that caused others to be wary of him.
He was also a Rank 1 Spiritual Array Master.
The Great Thousand World was a place where countless planes intersected. It was so vast that even Sovereign Realm experts could only sigh at their insignificance. Therefore, this world was also dazzling and filled with thousands of Daos competing for supremacy.
Spiritual Array Master, Spiritual Weapon Master. Aside from the orthodox Spiritual Energy cultivation, these peculiar occupations were also quite dazzling. Moreover, these occupations required extremely strict talent. Even if many people had outstanding talent in cultivation, they might not be able to walk on these paths smoothly. On the contrary, some so-called mediocre cultivators possessed amazing talent in these paths. If the heavens closed a window for you, they would definitely open another one. This sentence was quite applicable in the Great Thousand World.
Generally speaking, a Spiritual Array Master was an occupation with a rather high status because many forces required the help of a Spiritual Array Master. Whether it was the construction of a defensive formation, an offensive formation, or a formation that was beneficial to cultivation, all of these required a Spiritual Array Master. Therefore, in the Great Thousand World, a high-grade Spiritual Array Master was considered an extremely hot steamed bun.
As for some Spirit Array Masters who had reached a certain level of attainment in Spirit Arrays, they could construct Spirit Arrays with just a wave of their hand and use the power of the Spirit Arrays to shake the heavens and earth.
The reason why Ji Zong was able to have such a reputation within the Northern Spiritual Realm had nothing to do with his strength at the Spiritual Rotation Stage Initial Phase. It was all because of his Rank 1 Spiritual Array Master.
If a Rank 1 Soul Array Master was in a Spirit Array, he would not be any less terrifying than a Spiritual Rotation Stage Late Phase expert.
"I never thought that you would know my name even though you are a student of the Northern Spiritual Academy."
Ji Zong said with a smile. His voice was soft like a woman's, but he was a genuine man. This contrast made people feel extremely uncomfortable.
"You dared to make a move in the Northern Spiritual City. You have violated the Northern Spiritual Academy's taboo. If they knew about this, I'm afraid that you would not have a good ending." Mu Chen's eyes flashed as he said.
"That's why I painstakingly set up a" Mind Trapping Array ". No one outside would know about what happened here." Ji Zong said as he pointed at the empty street.
"Therefore, you should obediently hand the item over to me. I don't want to kill you, so as to prevent Mu Feng from going crazy. Wouldn't it be better if we were to be friendly?"
Mu Chen's eyes were cold as Spiritual Energy quietly surged within his body. Although he was currently caught in Ji Zong's Spirit Array, he was not someone who would easily compromise.
"It seems that you are not very obedient."
Ji Zong faintly smiled. Soon after, he flicked his finger. The spring rain that was drifting in the sky actually became denser at this moment. A vigorous Spiritual Energy fluctuation was quietly emitted.
"Being able to personally taste the power of my" Spirit Rain Array "can be considered as your blessing."
Ji Zong waved his sleeves and the spring rain that filled the sky suddenly whistled down. It was like a rain of blades as it enveloped Mu Chen from all directions.
When Mu Chen saw this amazing attack, he was shocked. A Spiritual Array Master was indeed powerful. With such an attack, even a Spiritual Rotation Stage powerhouse would be forced into a corner.
"Spirit Gathering Light!"
Mu Chen hurriedly retreated. The dark black Spiritual Energy within his body quickly surged out and formed a thin black light screen in front of him, protecting his body behind it.
Bang Bang Bang!
The spring rain that filled the sky continuously smashed onto the black light screen. The light screen suddenly trembled and ripples rapidly spread out. It seemed to be on the verge of collapse.
Mu Chen's strength was only at the Spiritual Movement Stage Late Phase. If Ji Zong wanted to use the power of the Spirit Array to attack, it would be extremely difficult for Mu Chen to resist.
"I can't let this drag on. I must break the Spirit Array!"
Mu Chen looked at the rapidly collapsing black light as thoughts rapidly flashed through his mind. With his current strength, he was not Ji Zong's opponent in a direct confrontation. His only way out was to break the Spirit Array. Once the Spirit Array was broken, Ji Zong would be like a tiger with its teeth pulled out. His threat would be greatly reduced and he would lose the protection of the Spirit Array. He would definitely not dare to make a move within the Northern Spiritual Realm.
However, how could it be easy to break the Spirit Array set up by a Rank 1 Spiritual Array Master?
Mu Chen took a deep breath. His mood gradually calmed down in this dangerous situation. His eyes flashed. Ji Zong was only a Rank 1 Spiritual Array Master. The Spirit Array set up by this kind of strength was obviously not at the level of controlling the Spirit Array with one's mind. In other words, he still needed to rely on some external objects to resonate with the Spirit Array and control it.
This external object was also a Spiritual Array Master's weakness. They would definitely place it in a place that they could easily protect.
Mu Chen's gaze quietly swept across Ji Zong's body. A moment later, his gaze gathered on the flower umbrella in Ji Zong's hand.
His strength was far from Ji Zong's, not to mention Ji Zong, who was controlling the Spirit Array. Fortunately, Ji Zong also knew this. Therefore, his underestimation would be Mu Chen's best opportunity.
"Kacha!"
The black light in front of Mu Chen that was condensed from Spiritual Energy finally completely shattered. The spring rain swept across his face, causing a trace of blood to appear. At this moment, Mu Chen's eyebrows were raised like swords. With a stomp of his feet, the rain splashed out. His body was like a cheetah as he shot straight towards Ji Zong.
"What an aggressive young man."
Seeing this, Ji Zong faintly smiled. Soon after, he waved his hand. The spring rain condensed and turned into a rain spear. It fiercely pierced towards Mu Chen.
Mu Chen's body pounced forward. His palms pushed against the ground and his body shot out. Like an agile monkey, he nimbly dodged the fierce rain spear.
"Not bad."
Seeing this, Ji Zong smiled and praised. However, his attacks became more and more ruthless. With a wave of his hand, several long spears condensed. They drew a tricky arc and enveloped Mu Chen's vital points.
Mu Chen's body nimbly moved. However, his chest was still pierced by a long spear. His clothes were torn and a bloody wound appeared. Blood immediately seeped out.
However, he did not care about the blood on his chest. He ferociously took a few steps forward and finally approached Ji Zong. Seeing this, Ji Zong slightly raised his eyebrows and said in a soft voice: "You actually know to head straight for the owner of the Spirit Array. Kid, you have some eyesight. However, although your thoughts are correct, you have overestimated your strength and underestimated the gap between us."
Ji Zong faintly smiled. He clenched his hand and the spring rain that filled the sky gathered in his palm. It directly condensed into a liquid-like long sword made of rain. On top of the long sword, there seemed to be a vigorous Spiritual Energy spreading out.
Mu Chen clenched both of his hands into fists. Black light surged and two black light seals that carried a tyrannical Spiritual Energy fluctuation appeared. Then, without any hesitation, he ferociously blasted towards Ji Zong.
The fist seals whizzed past and even the rain was torn apart. The whistling sound of the wind breaking caused Ji Zong to be slightly startled. It was obvious that he did not expect Mu Chen to be able to display such a fierce attack with the strength of a Spiritual Movement Stage Late Phase.
If he was not a Spiritual Array Master and only had the strength of an ordinary Spiritual Rotation Stage Initial Phase, it would have been difficult for him to capture Mu Chen today.
"However, this is still not enough!"
Ji Zong's eyes were cold. The water sword in his hand shook violently and a buzzing sound burst out. The water sword swept out like a water python and heavily bombarded the two black light seals. A violent Spiritual Energy swept out!
As the Spiritual Energy swept out, Mu Chen's body was forced to retreat step by step. The two Limitless Death Seals were also forced to retreat gradually. Although Ji Zong only had the strength of a Spiritual Rotation Stage Initial Phase, he was able to contend against a Spiritual Rotation Stage Late Phase by relying on the power of the Spiritual Array. It was obvious that it was impossible for Mu Chen to gain the upper hand in a direct confrontation with him.
Mu Chen clenched his teeth. He looked at the two Limitless Death Seals that were gradually being forced to retreat. Then, he glanced at the sharp sword tip. The chill pierced his heart and caused his skin to become numb.
"Ha!"
As the threat shrouded his heart, Mu Chen's eyes fiercely glared. A roar resounded from the depths of his heart and the Great Pagoda Art began to circulate.
After these experiments, he already understood that there seemed to be some power hidden within his body. However, this power could only be activated in a life and death situation.
And now was the best opportunity.
"Come out!"
Mu Chen's roar resounded in his heart. As the roar echoed, a dazzling light suddenly lit up on the surface of Mu Chen's body. A faintly discernible light tower emitted light that penetrated Mu Chen's skin and vaguely appeared within his body.
