In the darkness of night, amidst chaotic dreams and turbulent emotions, he went mad with lust!

He cautiously stealthily approached Tingfeng Courtyard.

The closer he got, the stronger the shock in his heart became.

Because the Spiritual Qi here was simply too dense; just taking a breath made one feel refreshed, and the chances of a Breakthrough here would greatly increase.

He was concealed beneath the Breath Concealing Veil, his aura suppressed to the extreme.

Old Ancestor Xuan Yin's entire attention was drawn by the abnormal phenomenon of Ye Youmeng's Breakthrough, so he didn't detect his presence at all.

"That brat named Lin Yuan is currently at a critical moment in controlling the grand array, his mind completely focused, and Xuan Yin is also attracted by the celestial phenomenon!

"Heaven helps me!"

Xiong Kaishan no longer hesitated. He silently circled to the other side of Tingfeng Courtyard, flipping over the courtyard wall like a ghost, without making the slightest sound.

This distance, for a Nascent Soul Cultivator, was no different from being face-to-face!

Xiong Kaishan sneered inwardly, his figure erupting like a cannonball. His five fingers formed claws, his nails turning as black as ink, and he lunged straight for Lin Yuan!

He had absolute confidence that with this claw, let alone a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, even a small mountain would be torn apart by him!

Old Ancestor Xuan Yin finally sensed this sudden terrifying killing intent, but it was all too late!

"Not good!"

"Lin Yuan, be careful!"

Their exclamations seemed to slow down.

However, just as Xiong Kaishan's sharp claws were about to touch Lin Yuan's robes—

Lin Yuan, who had been sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, suddenly opened them.

A cold and mocking arc formed at the corner of his mouth.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time!"

When Xiong Kaishan heard that light mocking remark, his pupils suddenly constricted, and a fatal sense of crisis instantly enveloped his entire body!

Without thinking, he immediately tried to retreat.

But it was too late!

Lin Yuan merely uttered a single word.

"Confine!"

Buzz—!

The entire space of Tingfeng Courtyard seemed to solidify into a piece of amber in an instant.

Three hundred and sixty-five streaks of black light shot up from all directions of the courtyard, forming a Star Chart that blotted out the sky and sun, completely sealing off the small courtyard.

The originally open courtyard, in Xiong Kaishan's eyes, instantly transformed into a deep, boundless starry sky. Beneath his feet was no longer solid ground, but unpredictable nebulae.

"Playing tricks!"

Although Xiong Kaishan was startled, he wasn't flustered, and a sneer appeared on his face.

He was a Nascent Soul Cultivator, having roamed the Eastern Domain for hundreds of years, what kind of battles hadn't he seen? Could a mere confinement array truly trap him to death?

He flipped his palm, and the "World-Breaking Divine Talisman" he obtained from Murong Yue appeared in his palm, shining with spiritual light.

"Break for me!"

Xiong Kaishan poured his vast magic power into it, and the silver Talisman glowed brightly, transforming into an incomparably sharp silver blade that fiercely slashed towards what appeared to be the weakest point in the Void Realm ahead!

However, the silver blade struck the star curtain like a mud ox entering the sea, merely stirring up a ripple before dissipating into nothingness. The entire Starry Sky Grand Array remained motionless.

"How is this possible?" The sneer on Xiong Kaishan's face froze.

"Fellow Daoist Xiong, since you're already here, why rush to leave?"

Lin Yuan's somewhat playful voice came from all directions, ethereal and unpredictable, as if the Dominator of this starry sky was whispering.

"You..." Xiong Kaishan's heart sank, and an ominous premonition surged within him.

"Array activate, Star Constellation strangulation!"

Lin Yuan's voice suddenly turned cold.

Before his words finished, the entire starry sky abruptly began to operate. Three hundred and sixty-five stars burst forth with dazzling light, and chains formed by starlight, like living giant pythons, coiled towards Xiong Kaishan from all directions. Each chain carried a heavy, mountain-like power of confinement.

Xiong Kaishan's expression drastically changed, and he no longer dared to be complacent in the slightest. He roared, his body swelling, revealing the true form of Hundred Beasts Mountain, transforming into a giant bear ten zhang tall, with bulging muscles and emitting a ferocious and violent aura.

"Roar!"

He swung his gigantic, fan-like bear paws, bringing forth a tearing gale, fiercely striking the incoming starlight chains.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The immense force collided with the starlight, producing dull thuds. However, those chains were incredibly tough; no matter how he struck them, they merely flickered with light but did not break. Instead, they tightened further and further, wrapping around his massive body layer by layer.

"No! This is impossible!"

Xiong Kaishan completely panicked. He felt like a fly caught in a spiderweb; the more he struggled, the stronger the invisible restraints became.

Outside the courtyard, Old Ancestor Xuan Yin witnessed all of this, his aged face already replaced by shock.

He asked himself, if he were trapped in this grand array, his fate would definitely not be any better than Xiong Kaishan's. In fact, because his Physical Body was not as powerful as Xiong Kaishan's, he would probably be defeated even faster.

Seeing that he was already a fish in a net, Xiong Kaishan's ferocious bear face was a mix of malice and madness.

"You little beast, even if I die, I'll drag you down with me!"

He suddenly flipped his palm, and an exquisite jade bottle appeared in his palm, which he then crushed without hesitation!

"Bang!"

The jade bottle shattered, and a wisp of strange sweetness silently diffused.

"Corrupting Divine Incense!"

Old Ancestor Xuan Yin outside the courtyard cried out in alarm, his body retreating a hundred zhang as if struck by lightning. "This poison specializes in defiling a Cultivator's Divine Soul; it's incredibly sinister!"

Lin Yuan frowned deeply.

He immediately activated the grand array, starlight pouring down like mercury, attempting to isolate the poisonous incense.

However, this Corrupting Divine Incense seemed to have no physical form, easily penetrating the starlight barrier, and in an instant, it enveloped the entire Tingfeng Courtyard.

"This is bad!" Lin Yuan's heart sank.

Inside the Quiet Room, Ye Youmeng was at a critical juncture of her Breakthrough, her Primordial Spirit resonating with heaven and earth, making her defenses weakest.

She was originally a Grand Elder of the Five Poisons Sect, familiar with all poisons under heaven, and possessed extremely strong resistance.

But this Corrupting Divine Incense did not harm the Physical Body; it directly targeted the Divine Soul!

A wisp of sweet fragrance entered her nostrils.

Ye Youmeng's beautiful face, which had been flushed red from enduring the infusion of Spiritual Qi, suddenly showed a sickly blush.

Her tightly closed charming eyes suddenly opened, and the clarity and rationality within them receded like a tide, leaving only an unfathomable haze and confusion.

"Senior Brother..."

"Is that you? You've finally... come to pick me up?"

She murmured dreamily, gazing blankly at Lin Yuan in front of her, her eyes seemingly piercing through time and space, seeing that white-clothed figure from the depths of her memory that had long since vanished.

"Damn it!"

Lin Yuan felt a dizzying sensation, and the strange sweet fragrance also invaded his Sea of Consciousness.

Lin Yuan dared not delay for a moment. He flipped his palm, and two Medicinal Pills appeared in his hand, which were precisely the Myriad Poison Transformation Calamity Pills he had refined in Demon Falling Valley.

This pill was said to be able to cure all poisons. The situation was critical now; he wondered if this pill could neutralize the poison of the Corrupting Divine Incense.

"A desperate remedy!" Lin Yuan said and swallowed the antidote pill.

The Medicinal Pill dissolved, and a cool sensation rushed straight to his crown, the dizziness quickly receding.

"It works!"

Lin Yuan's spirits lifted. He immediately pinched the other Medicinal Pill, flashed to Ye Youmeng's front, and while she was disoriented, directly stuffed the Medicinal Pill into her cherry lips.

Although the Medicinal Pill cured the poison, a greater crisis had already erupted!

Without the guidance of its master's Divine Sense, the vast Spiritual Qi pouring in from the Heaven-Circulation Spirit Gathering Array instantly turned into a wild horse, wildly crashing through her Meridians!

Ye Youmeng's delicate body trembled violently, and even fine blood beads seeped from her skin, her aura visibly weakening at a rapid pace.

If this continued, her Meridians would shatter, and she would explode and die!
