Ye Xing quickly disappeared under the Fire Cloud Sect Master's eyes. This time, it was the Fire Cloud Sect Master's turn to be dumbfounded.
This was a level three illusion array at the phenomenal success stage. Even a high-level Astral Stellar realm cultivator would have to tread carefully and cautiously in it!
Even the Fire Cloud Sect Master, as a level three array grandmaster, appeared to be strolling leisurely with the two array flags, but he was actually on high alert. He did not dare relax at all.
However, Ye Xing had vanished without a trace!
The Fire Cloud Sect Master strolled leisurely, but Ye Xing had vanished without a trace. He was running!
He actually dared to run in a level three array formation at the phenomenal success stage?
Even a figure like the Fire Cloud Sect Master was taken aback by Ye Xing's actions.
"Could it be that this array formation looks powerful, but it's only strong in appearance? It's not a big deal? "
The Fire Cloud Sect Master could not help but wonder. He could sense the Heavenly Fire seal and knew that Ye Xing was moving rapidly.
"Even a two-star Perfected One dares to move quickly in an array formation. I'm the Fire Cloud Sect Master, a level three array grandmaster. How can I not compare to him?"
The Fire Cloud Sect Master's pride was stirred up by Ye Xing. He locked onto the Heavenly Fire seal's aura and sped up his pace, chasing after Ye Xing.
Just as the Fire Cloud Sect Master walked dozens of meters forward, a terrifying aura emanated from his surroundings. It caused his expression to change.
He saw four fire dragons suddenly appear in the surrounding sea of fire. Each fire dragon was a hundred meters long. They had fire scales, fire armor, and fire claws. They were all lifelike!
The terrifying aura came from the four fire dragons. They were not illusory fire dragons, but real fire dragons.
"It's a killing array! A phenomenal success stage three killing array! "
The Fire Cloud Sect Master was like a cat that had its tail stepped on. His hair instantly stood on end as he was appalled.
A phenomenal success stage three killing array could kill high-level Astral Stellar realm cultivators. Even though the Fire Cloud Sect Master was an Exalted One and a level three array grandmaster, he did not dare belittle a phenomenal success stage three killing array!
Killing Arrays were different from Trapping Arrays, Illusory Arrays, or other Arrays with different functions. The function of a Killing Array was very simple, and that was to kill people.
If one fell into the killing array, one would die.
So what if one was a formation grandmaster? Once one was trapped in a Killing Formation, there was no time for one to break the formation. If one was unable to withstand the attacks, only death awaited them.
At the instant he saw the four fire dragons, the Fire Cloud Sect Master immediately circulated his Stellar Stellar Energy and activated the two array flags beside him.
The two array flags instantly expanded to more than double in size as they revolved around Fire Cloud Sect Leader. Countless flaming beams connected head to tail, forming a circular flaming shield that surrounded Fire Cloud Sect Leader.
Following that, the flaming shield carried the Fire Cloud Sect Master away from the four fire dragons.
At the same instant, the four fire dragons' auras surged as they charged at the Fire Cloud Sect Patriarch. One of them slammed into his head, one spewed out a flaming dragon breath, one reached out with a flaming claw, and one swung its body, lashing out with a gigantic flaming dragon tail like a whip.
Bam! Bam! Bam!
Bam! The four fire dragons' attacks clashed with the flaming shield, producing explosive booms. The flaming shield was sent flying as Fire Cloud Sect Master fell to the side, spewing blood.
A flaming barrier immediately appeared around Fire Cloud Sect Master's body, isolating him from the burning aura of the array formation. He looked at the four fire dragons that had vanished into the distance and felt a lingering fear.
"Thankfully! I was always prepared to destroy the defensive array formation. If not, it would have been useless no matter how good my array formation skills were. I would have been reduced to a corpse by now! "
Fire Cloud Sect Master sighed inwardly. He raised his hand and beckoned, retrieving the two array flags that had been sent flying. Tiny cracks had appeared on the two array flags.
Taking out some array formation materials, Fire Cloud Sect Master raised his hand and ignited a raging flame. He quickly refined the array formation materials into the array flags, restoring the cracks on the two array flags to their original state.
Sensing that the Heavenly Fire seal was still rapidly moving and was approaching the deepest depths of the valley, Fire Cloud Sect Master was alarmed.
He muttered to himself, "Could this array formation be set up by this punk? How is that possible!? How can a mere Two-star Perfected One be a third-level formation grandmaster? But if he isn't, how can he come and go so freely in the array formation? "
Fire Cloud Sect Master was perplexed and deeply shocked.
"That's not right. If he can come and go as he pleases, why doesn't he escape outside? Why does he run even deeper?"
Fire Cloud Sect Master had an epiphany as he suddenly realized a problem. "If he were to escape outside, wouldn't he be safe with me trapped in the array formation? Now, he has entered the deepest depths of the valley. Once I crack the array formation here, he won't be able to escape.
From the looks of it, he has some means that allows him to avoid the attacks of the killing array but he is unable to crack the trapping array. All he can do is head deeper into the valley. As long as I crack the array formation, he will be doomed! "
…
Fire Cloud Sect Master's guess was correct. Ye Xing was unable to crack the trapping array and could only head deeper into the valley.
With his see-through vision and his superbrain's scanning, Ye Xing could tell at a glance the array formation in the valley. He was always able to take the safest route and avoid all the killing arrays.
Finally, Ye Xing arrived in front of the stone house in the deepest depths of the valley.
Since he could not leave, staying in the illusory array was ultimately not a solution. Ye Xing entered the stone house.
The moment he entered the stone house, the scorching array formation aura immediately vanished. Replacing it was an extreme coldness!
The Yin aura in the stone house was astounding. It was stronger than any spot Ye Xing had visited in the Skycorpse Mountain Range.
Under normal circumstances, a Purple Yang Pill could last three days in the Skycorpse Mountain Range's Yin aura. And in places with rich Yin aura, it could last for two days. At worst, it would last for a day.
However, the moment Ye Xing entered the stone house, he immediately felt the depletion of the Purple Yang Pills in his body increase severalfold. In this place, it would probably take half a day at most to consume a Purple Yang Pill.
The stone house had rich Yin aura and was extremely dark. It was like a haunted house.
However, Ye Xing's insights into the darkness force had reached the Minute Subtlety. The darkness could not obstruct his vision. He could see everything in the stone house clearly.
This was a very large stone room. It was six meters wide and eight meters long.
In the middle of the stone room, there was a coffin. Ye Xing immediately used his super brain to scan the coffin. There was a corpse lying inside.
It was a corpse!
It was unknown how many years it had been dead, but the corpse had not decomposed. Because of the Yin aura, the corpse was no different from when it had died. It was just that it had not been exposed to sunlight for a long time, so it was very pale.
This made Ye Xing immediately think of a Corpse Path Martial Artist!
"No wonder there was an illusory array set up outside to hide this valley. Moreover, there were trapping and killing arrays set up in the illusory array to kill martial artists who mistakenly entered. It turns out that after someone died, they wanted to become a Corpse Path Martial Artist and deliberately found such a place!"
"It is said that it takes a long time for a dead person to absorb Yin aura to revive. The Yin aura here is extremely rich. Obviously, being buried here can greatly reduce the time it takes to revive. It is the fastest way to become a Corpse Path Martial Artist!"
"After a Corpse Path Martial Artist regains consciousness, they no longer have the memories of their previous life. They also have no emotions. There are actually people who deliberately want to become such a monster. This is really abnormal!"
Ye Xing withdrew his scanning gaze. Looking at the corpse in the coffin, he felt very disgusted.
The reason why there were so many Corpse Path Martial Artists in the Sky Corpse Mountain Range was not only because there were countless corpses of martial artists buried here in ancient times. It was also because some martial artists were unwilling to die and wanted to continue living. Therefore, they chose to stay in the Sky Corpse Mountain Range and become the living dead.
Although after becoming a Living Corpse, they no longer had the consciousness they had when they were alive. Instead, they were just another monster. But, there were always some martial artists who couldn't get over it. They always thought that this was another way to extend their lives. Before there was a better way to extend their lives, there were still some martial artists who threw themselves into the Heavenly Corpse Mountain Range one after another.
This method was spurned by others. Normal martial artists would not allow anyone to do so.
Therefore, those who were buried in the Sky Corpse Mountain Range could only be secretly buried. This was the reason why this burial ground was covered by an illusory array.
Of course, this was not the only reason. There was another reason, which was also very important.
Ye Xing's gaze fell on a stone table at the end of the stone room. There were some things on the table that made Ye Xing's eyes light up and his heart beat faster.
On the left side of the stone table, there was a box filled with Corpse Jade.
In the middle of the stone table, there was an even bigger box filled with mid-grade star crystals.
On the right side of the stone table, there was a set of equipment. It was divided into a helmet, armor, gloves, and boots. All of them were supreme-grade spirit artifacts.
A box full of Corpse Jade, a box full of mid-grade star crystals, and a set of four supreme-grade spirit artifacts. This was a huge harvest.
Ye Xing was excited, but he did not rush forward immediately. Instead, he carefully observed the stone room and continued to scan it with his super brain. After confirming that there was no danger, he walked over to the stone table.
Ye Xing's gaze first fell on the four supreme-grade spirit artifacts and he sighed inwardly.
"This is a four-piece supreme-grade spirit artifact set. Oh my god, a supreme-grade spirit artifact is worth more than 10 high-grade spirit artifacts. This set of supreme-grade spirit artifacts is simply a priceless treasure that can only be found by chance."
Apart from weapons, the rest of the spirit artifacts were very rare. Ye Xing had not even seen a high-grade spirit artifact set before, let alone a four-piece supreme-grade spirit artifact set.
The box in the middle of the table contained about 100,000 mid-grade star crystals. However, Ye Xing only glanced at it. 100,000 mid-grade star crystals was a huge sum for a mid-grade Perfected Person. However, to Ye Xing, 100,000 mid-grade star crystals were the least important thing on the table.
Ye Xing's gaze fell on the box full of Corpse Jade. He counted it and found that there were 24 pieces of Corpse Jade. There were three pieces each from the first-grade to eighth-grade spirit artifacts.
"There are so many corpse jades. Just three grade-7 corpse jades are enough for me to break through to the 3rd level of the Astral Realm. With the addition of three grade-8 corpse jades, I can consolidate my cultivation at the 3rd level of the Astral Realm and accelerate my breakthrough to the 4th level of the Astral Realm!"
Ye Xing looked at the 24 pieces of Corpse Jade and was overjoyed.
