395: Strange array

Yue Xiaojie looked at Wu Wenlong's appearance and although she looked down on him, she was truly afraid that there might be something happening that she was unaware of.

As someone who had entered this world halfway through, the things she understood were truly too few.

"I, I certainly know what happened, but I cannot tell you," Wu Wenlong stammered.

Chen Yuexiaojie said, "Just say it. If nothing had happened, you wouldn't be this scared, right?"

When Wu Wenlong heard this, his heart leapt with joy.

"Then I will say it!"

Zhou Xun said, "Brother Chen, there is a formation disk here!"

Just as he was about to speak, Wu Wenlong heard Zhou Xun's words and hurriedly craned his neck to look over.

"Eh? How could it be like this?"

After Zhou Xun saw the formation disk clearly, he couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

"This, what is going on? Zhou Xun, don't play coy there. If you have something to say, just say it!" Wu Wenlong was so surprised he couldn't speak.

Because that formation disk was covered in all kinds of talisman patterns, and there was a strange power hidden within it that made people afraid to go near it.

"This formation disk is not simple."

As Chen Tianming spoke, his brows furrowed tightly.

He could see that this formation disk was extraordinary, but it seemed to have an owner.

Seeing this, a look of contemplation appeared in Chen Tianming's eyes.

Because the owner of this formation disk had not perished; in other words, was there someone else here besides them?

Zhou Xun couldn't help but say excitedly, "Brother Chen, can you see what is wrong with this formation disk?"

Facing Zhou Xun's question, Chen Tianming did not answer immediately, or rather, it was unclear whether Zhou Xun had actually seen what was wrong with this.

Wu Wenlong had not seen what was wrong, but he was still waiting for a conclusion to be reached between Zhou Xun and Chen Tianming.

Yue Xiaojie's attention was not on the formation disk; she had only glanced at it once before casting her gaze elsewhere.

Chen Tianming and Zhou Xun's gazes remained fixed on that formation disk.

They discovered that next to the formation disk, there was a ring-shaped object that was very beautiful, but that was not the point.

What made Chen Tianming feel surprised was that there was actually a wisp of black energy inside this ring, and that black energy was slowly spreading.

"What is that thing? I didn't touch anything randomly, don't blame me for causing trouble," Wu Wenlong said in a low voice.

Zhou Xun shook his head and said, "I don't know. I have never seen such a thing before."

"What is this thing?" Wu Wenlong continued to ask.

Chen Tianming thought for a moment, "If I am not mistaken, this should be a spiritual artifact, right? It is just that there is no way for us to use it."

"..."

It was unclear how many of the people present took in that last sentence, but since Chen Tianming had already said it, he would not continue to dwell on this problem.

His primary focus was on that formation disk; it really didn't look like much, more like a broken keyboard.

Even the spiritual artifacts around it seemed more unusual than it did.

Zhou Xun had been watching Chen Tianming's expression and discovered that Chen Tianming's gaze had been fixed on the formation disk the whole time.

"Brother Chen, have you discovered anything wrong with this disk?"

Zhou Xun did not beat around the bush and asked directly.

The relationship between him and Chen Tianming was inherently a cooperative one, so it was better to just say what was on his mind; being secretive would only arouse suspicion.

He certainly did not want to cause any issues with Chen Tianming during this dangerous time.

He was not an idiot like Wu Wenlong; he clearly knew that some things were more realistic than he had imagined.

Don't look at how these few people seemed to be cooperating now; in reality, everyone harbored malicious intentions in their hearts.

Their thoughts were very simple: whether they did these things or not didn't matter much.

Conversely, with Wu Wenlong, he couldn't avoid the other's choices, and even if he looked down on some of them, he could only let the other party choose.

"Don't touch the things here for now; it's not right," Chen Tianming warned the people around him, not bothering to force his tone, which remained as flat as always.

Yue Xiaojie didn't take these words to heart and looked at everything around her.

"Brother Chen, don't worry. I will definitely take good care of myself and won't cause you any trouble."

"Don't say these polite words. Let's leave here first to avoid attracting others, which would be even more troublesome," Chen Tianming said.

After speaking, Chen Tianming led Zhou Xun and the others forward.

Wu Wenlong looked at those treasures, greed showing in his eyes.

Although these treasures were not valuable, their advantage lay in their quantity, and they could improve his martial arts.

Thinking of this, Wu Wenlong immediately grabbed a long sword, preparing to snatch those treasures away.

His actions were seen by Chen Tianming over there.

Chen Tianming sneered, waved his right hand forward, and a massive surge of Yuan Power struck toward Wu Wenlong.

Wu Wenlong was sent flying by Chen Tianming, falling to the ground and screaming in pain.

"Ouch, that hurts so much."

Seeing Wu Wenlong lying there screaming, Chen Tianming felt secretly satisfied.

"Brother Chen, why did you hit someone?"

Wu Wenlong stood up while clutching his injured chest, looking very aggrieved.

Noticing this scene, Zhou Xun slightly raised his eyebrows and frowned unhappily.

"Brother Chen already told you not to touch the things here. What are you trying to do by pulling at them!"

Wu Wenlong could not hide his greed and said in a low voice, "I just thought these treasures might belong to someone else, so I wanted to take them to check. I didn't expect him to strike suddenly."

Zhou Xun said coldly, "Brother Chen, thanks to you taking action in time to save him, otherwise we would have been in big trouble."

"It is nothing. These things are a big deal to me as well, so it is better to avoid everyone suffering together."

The politeness between the two was truly uncomfortable for Wu Wenlong, but he dared not express it, so he could only harbor his resentment inwardly.

"Hahaha, let's keep going and see if we can find the weakness of that formation disk," Zhou Xun laughed.

The most critical thing for them now was to understand this formation disk; only by understanding it could they possibly break this formation.

As more time passed, the black energy on the formation disk became thicker and more powerful.

Chen Tianming felt the malevolent energy coming from the formation disk.

"Not good, leave quickly!" Chen Tianming shouted loudly.

He had known there was something wrong with this formation disk and hurriedly led the others to rush outside.

Wu Wenlong and the others also followed and fled.

"Boom."

The formation disk exploded, and a terrifying energy surged toward the surroundings.

Chen Tianming and the others were all sent flying, landing on the ground in the distance and vomiting blood.

They felt that they had been injured.

"Cough, cough, cough. Brother Chen, are you all okay?" Zhou Xun asked with concern.

"I am fine," Chen Tianming waved his hand.
