Chapter 138: Secret Technique
Hearing Wang Yufan’s words, the Black Robed Hat Person under the hat frowned. He knew Wang Yufan was deliberately not telling him his origin.
"I daresay that very few people in this place would recognize the Array Breaking Pearl in my hand, and even in the Imperial Court, only a handful know about it. Since you can recognize it, your background must be extraordinary, and it’s highly probable that you are from another Imperial Court.
You also know that Li Shui Sect’s grand array cannot stop my Array Breaking Pearl, so if you are from another Imperial Court, do not interfere with Li Shui Sect’s affairs." The Black Robed Hat Person said in a deep voice.
Of course, his words were also heard by the people of Li Shui Sect.
"What? Young Master is actually from another Imperial Court? No way."
"Yeah, is he here at our Li Shui Sect for some other purpose?"
"I don’t think so. Although he is powerful, I believe it would be easy for the Grand Elder and the others to take down Young Master."
"You have a point. But I feel that Young Master has not shown any killing intent or anything else since he entered our sect."
The Li Shui Sect disciples were discussing among themselves, and the elders were also secretly muttering, having already become wary of Wang Yufan.
After all, they didn’t know this so-called Young Master, nor did they know what ulterior motives he had for coming to Li Shui Sect. Cheng Tai, as the Grand Elder, also felt a little underestimated.
Just as the people of Li Shui Sect were worrying about Wang Yufan’s origins.
Wang Yufan smiled and said.
"You underestimate me too much. I am not from your so-called Imperial Courts. I have already stated my origin, and whether you believe it or not, it remains the same. Today, I will stay in Li Shui Sect and will not leave."
Hearing Wang Yufan’s words, the Black Robed Hat Person sneered coldly.
"This is your own decision. Later, swords and sabers have no eyes, so don’t blame others."
After the Black Robed Hat Person finished speaking, the Array Breaking Pearl in his hand directly floated in the air. The Black Robed Hat Person let out a low shout, "Go."
The Array Breaking Pearl instantly transformed into a black dragon, heading directly towards Li Shui Sect’s grand array.
The people of Li Shui Sect watched, unblinking, as the black dragon, formed from the Array Breaking Pearl, crashed into their grand array.
With a boom sound, the entire Li Shui Sect shook violently.
After this strike, the Immortal Trapping Formation had already begun to show instability. The disciples responsible for guarding and supplying spiritual power found that the array foundations maintaining the array’s operation seemed to have developed cracks.
Upon discovering this situation, they immediately sent a message to Grand Elder Cheng Tai.
Cheng Tai’s face instantly turned ashen upon hearing this news. He already knew about the disciple’s report.
If that so-called Array Breaking Pearl were to attack a few more times, their grand array, which had guarded Li Shui Sect for tens of thousands of years, would be destroyed. A wave of anxiety spread through his heart.
Ouyang Feng, seeing this scene, began to laugh heartily.
"How about it, Brother Cheng Tai? How does it feel now? Is your grand array starting to have problems? You seem a little flustered now."
Cheng Tai heard the sarcasm from Ouyang Feng of Moon Worship Sect and wanted to retort, but he couldn’t. He found that he had nothing to say now because their Li Shui Sect’s sect grand array had already become unstable. The most severe consequence would be the destruction of the array and the death of its people.
Moreover, their Sect Master was still at the most crucial moment of his breakthrough and could not afford any mistakes.
Just at this moment, he suddenly looked at Wang Yufan, who was standing to the side.
Then he said, "Young Master, since you can see that our sect’s grand array is damaged, can you repair it or help it withstand the Array Breaking Pearl’s attack?"
Hearing what Cheng Tai said, Wang Yufan replied,
"There is a way, but it depends on whether you can carry it out. This method can buy you time until your Sect Master completely breaks through."
"What method? Young Master, tell me quickly." Cheng Tai said urgently.
Wang Yufan waved his hand and said,
"No rush. Your Li Shui Sect’s Immortal Trapping Formation has eighty-one array eyes, which are the array foundations. The method I speak of is to have the eighty-one most highly cultivated individuals of your Li Shui Sect each stand on an array foundation and drip their essence blood onto the array foundation."
After listening, Cheng Tai said, "That’s it?"
Wang Yufan smiled and said, "Of course not. You have to keep dripping until your Sect Master breaks through."
Listening to Wang Yufan’s words, Cheng Tai continued urgently, "Even after my Sect Master breaks through, he will only be at the second layer of Heavenly Immortal. There are several Heavenly Immortals at the fourth layer or above in Moon Worship Sect."
Wang Yufan waved his hand and said,
"You don’t need to worry about that for now. You should quickly follow my method. Look, the black dragon formed by that Array Breaking Pearl is striking your grand array again."
As soon as Wang Yufan finished speaking, a crack sound came, and Cheng Tai’s heart skipped a beat. He immediately relayed Wang Yufan’s words to the Li Shui Sect disciples.
All the disciples who received the notification flew in different directions, reaching their respective array foundations.
At this moment, the Black Robed Hat Person outside coldly watched the chaotic scene inside the grand array. Meanwhile, Ouyang Feng, the Grand Elder of Moon Worship Sect, walked up to the Black Robed Hat Person and said,
"Your Excellency’s Array Breaking Pearl is indeed extraordinary. With just two strikes, this so-called indestructible Li Shui Sect grand array has already developed cracks."
The Black Robed Hat Person said, "This Array Breaking Pearl is still a precious treasure. It was very difficult for me to bring it out this time."
Hearing the Black Robed Hat Person’s words, Ouyang Feng understood what he meant.
He then said, "Your Excellency, rest assured. Once we take down Li Shui Sect, we will split the wealth inside fifty-fifty. Our Sect Master has already agreed to this with you. We just await your methods. Once the grand array is broken, all our sect disciples will rush in and completely eliminate the Li Shui Sect disciples inside, leaving no one alive."
Just as the two were conversing, within Li Shui Sect, those standing in front of the array foundations, after dripping their essence blood onto them, a subtle energy, different from the previous Immortal Trapping Formation, began to fluctuate.
A crack that had just been struck by the Array Breaking Pearl rapidly healed. Moreover, the protective shield formed by the entire Li Shui Sect’s grand array directly turned blood-red.
"Your Excellency, what’s going on? Why has Li Shui Sect’s grand array suddenly seemed to strengthen? Its power is already stronger than before. Did their array get a shot of adrenaline or something?"
The Black Robed Hat Person narrowed his eyes and said, "They must have used some secret technique to enhance the array’s power, but based on my estimation, even if there is a secret method, it must have a time limit. I don’t believe their grand array will remain this strong indefinitely. My Array Breaking Pearl still has some power."
After the Black Robed Hat Person finished speaking, he pointed a single finger at the Array Breaking Pearl, which had transformed into a black dragon.
