188: Continue to break the formation

Early the next morning, Zhou Luo stretched and walked out of the formation, feeling refreshed.

The five people outside seemed to have stayed up all night, a hint of fatigue on their faces.

"Brother Xu, we'll be relying on you from now on," Wu Gang said with a chuckle to Zhou Luo.

Although he was a Qi Training Sixth Level Cultivator, he still showed due respect to an Array Master.

After all, if the other party was unhappy and just left them in the Formation, it would be more trouble than it was worth.

"Don't worry, I'll do my best," Zhou Luo said seriously.

Immediately, everyone set their sights on the island in the front left.

Zhou Luo's spiritual energy surged, and he was the first to step out, walking on the water towards the front.

The calm lake surface showed no unusual movements.

The demonic beasts that had attacked everyone in the formation seemed to have gone into hiding, without any trace of their presence.

Wu Gang had tried to release his spiritual sense to probe, but upon contact with the water surface, he felt a sense of stagnation, as if his spiritual sense had sunk into a quagmire and could not advance smoothly.

There seemed to be a Restriction type formation beneath the water surface as well.

After a while, Zhou Luo stopped before the second small island.

Wu Gang understood and stepped out before him, but this time, nothing unusual was triggered; he only felt his body pass through a layer of transparent film.

Seeing this, the others breathed a sigh of relief.

It seemed this formation was not as terrifying as yesterday's.

Zhou Luo was not surprised by this.

Space type formations were not easy to set up; they required not only a very high level from the Array Master but also a large investment in Array formation Materials.

Even the Azure Origin Sect would not waste so many Materials in a place like this.

It wasn't a space type Formation, but that didn't mean there was no danger.

Only after the others had successfully entered the formation did Zhou Luo follow in without haste.

His experiences along the way made him realize that the formations in this Dragon Phoenix Mountain Range should all be the work of a Second-Order Formation Master from the Azure Origin Sect.

If so, then these formations would all have at least two functions.

If it wasn't a space function and wasn't related to Restrictions, then it could only be attack and defense.

Because enemy-trapping type formations were not that easy to break.

A High Grade enemy-trapping type formation could trap high-level Qi Training cultivators.

Since the Azure Origin Sect had the idea of training their Disciples, they must hope that the Disciples can temper themselves in difficulties, rather than just trying to prevent them from obtaining treasures.

As Zhou Luo approached, everyone's eyes fell on him.

"I need to determine the characteristics of this formation before I can deduce the Array formation layout," Zhou Luo said calmly.

His meaning was clear: someone needed to lead the way.

Wu Gang looked at the Wei Family siblings, his gaze slightly heavy: "Since that's the case, let's go forward together."

Since the rift had appeared, pretending to be friendly would only make things difficult for himself.

Wei Qingtao understood his meaning, walked out with his magic sword, and then bowed to Shangguan Qianxue, saying, "Please take good care of my sister."

"Brother," Wei Qinghong said with a worried expression.

Shangguan Qianxue nodded slightly.

Since he had asked, she would certainly take care of them.

Because this was the path of Cultivation she pursued.

Originally, after killing that group of demonic beasts to avenge her family, she had decided that after achieving success in Cultivation, she would definitely travel the world and eliminate all demonic beasts or forces causing trouble.

Wei Qingtao came to Wu Gang's side and said expressionlessly, "Please."

Wu Gang didn't say anything more, just gripped his large saber and walked forward.

The two walked out side by side, stepping on the water surface, approaching the island.

Not long after they walked out, a pressure suddenly descended, like a mountain pressing down on the two of them.

Their expressions changed slightly, and they quickly used their spiritual energy to resist that pressure.

Boom—

Just then, the water surface suddenly churned, a water column shot up into the sky, and lake water rained down from above, reflecting shimmering light in the sunlight.

"The water has a problem," Zhou Luo's voice suddenly sounded from behind.

Looking at the lake water falling from the sky, a ripple of excitement flashed in their eyes, and they did not hesitate to unleash their magic swords and activate their spiritual energy.

In an instant, two spiritual lights, one red and one green, suddenly burst forth, mixed with powerful auras, slashing towards the lake water.

Clang—

The vast spiritual light, upon contact with the lake water, emitted a clear metallic collision sound.

Under the transformation of the Formation, this lake water had actually turned into thousands of sharp blades, rushing towards the two of them.

The two immediately wanted to retreat.

"You can't retreat, otherwise this place will also be affected," Zhou Luo's voice sounded again.

They gritted their teeth and could only swing their Magical Artifacts again, while also taking out spiritual talismans and throwing them out.

The spiritual talismans in mid-air bloomed with dazzling golden light, which fell and enveloped their bodies.

Bang bang bang—

The lake water fell, making crackling sounds.

Under the impact, dense cracks began to appear in the golden light shield.

They couldn't retreat, they could only advance.

They saw their spiritual energy surging, accelerating towards the island.

Boom boom boom—

However, as they took their first step, countless water columns shot up again, and the lake water, like sharp blades, fell madly.

Behind them, Zhou Luo had already taken out his Array formation disc, released his spiritual sense, and began to cover the formation.

Just as he had expected.

This was a formation with both attack and defense; the lake water was just one method, the real killing blow was yet to come.

But Time was tight, and he couldn't completely determine the formation's attack trajectory yet.

For now, he could only use human lives to test it.

Thinking of this, he raised his gaze and looked at the two people on the opposite side who were fiercely battling the lake water, his eyes sinking, and continued to deduce and calculate.

On the water surface, Wu Gang and Wei Qingtao, facing the attack like a sudden downpour, employed various methods and were able to hold on for the time being.

But this was just the beginning.

Whoosh—

But this was just the beginning. As they continued to walk forward, a gust of wind suddenly blew, stirring up a layer of waves on the originally calm water surface.

The waves surged, and under the formation's evolution, suddenly rose three zhang high, like a water curtain blocking the two of them.

This was the formation's defensive method.

In that water curtain, the fish-type demonic beasts that had attacked them in the formation yesterday reappeared. They leaped out of the water, like bombs smashing towards the two of them.

The two originally wanted to dodge.

But with the overwhelming number of demonic beasts attacking, there was no opportunity to evade at all.

Helplessly, they had no choice but to bite the bullet and kill them.

This also caused the illusory power within the demonic beasts' bodies to erupt, beginning to affect the minds of the two.

Behind them, the others saw this scene, their expressions solemn.

Although the area they were in was relatively safe, the pervasive illusory power was still affecting them.

"We need to quickly break through that water curtain," Zhou Luo said in a deep voice.

The others naturally understood that they couldn't just sit and wait.

The remaining three charged out together, three spiritual lights of different colors surging from beneath their feet, rushing towards that water curtain.

Forcing themselves to endure the invasion of illusory power, they each unleashed their respective methods, launching several spiritual energy attacks.

Bang bang bang—

Violent attacks landed on the water curtain, causing intense explosions and splashing countless water droplets.

In front of the water curtain, the five people's spiritual lights bloomed, and their actions were even more decisive.

They no longer paid attention to the attacking demonic beasts, only seeking to leave quickly.

After a while, under their combined efforts, the seemingly tough water curtain finally revealed a huge opening.

"Brother Xu, come over quickly," Wu Gang shouted to Zhou Luo behind him.

Zhou Luo remained motionless, his expression resolute.

"Don't mind me, just keep moving forward."
