Chapter 157: The Unexpected
Splash!
A layer of the barrier shattered with a crisp sound.
Immediately after, countless Fire Crows of varying sizes rushed into the pond one after another. The clear water in the pond visibly dwindled, and at last, the core of the grand array’s barrier was exposed to everyone!
The water had dried up, and the once-deep pond had turned into the entrance of a large underground cave. The gaping hole looked like a giant black maw.
A deep blue light shield covered the entrance. Though not as deep as the pond itself, it was thick and solid, sealing the hole tightly. Some Fire Crows landed on the shield but were immediately extinguished, failing to leave the slightest impact.
Inside the light shield, countless runes flickered and rotated slowly, shrouding the scene in mystery. Though the pond had dried up, the dense shield continued to block everyone’s vision, preventing them from seeing into the cave below. Moreover, when anyone attempted to probe the shield with their spiritual consciousness, it was instantly repelled.
As the core barrier revealed itself, Qingting fixed her attention on the area below, sending out a few strands of spiritual consciousness to test the shield while silently chanting something. Her expression was tense.
After a long while, the tension on Qingting’s face disappeared, replaced by excitement. "This barrier matches my predictions!
Hearing this, Qin Sang and the others let out sighs of relief.
