For a moment, an iceberg blocked their way, and the "Cyan Cloud Ship" was about to crash into it; the next moment, meteors rained down from the sky, falling in a firestorm, causing the "Cyan Cloud Ship" to make crackling sounds; or sometimes an endless sea of flames made it impossible to pass through...
Various illusions appeared one after another, forcing Yu Yunyi to stop the "Cyan Cloud Ship," not daring to charge forward recklessly.
This was an array formation, and who knew what other attack methods existed besides the illusions. A moment of carelessness could damage the "Cyan Cloud Ship."
"What should we do?"
Yu Yunyi, Lv Ruoxi, and Fu Chao all turned their eyes to Li Yunjing.
At this moment, Li Yunjing from the "Seven Star Palace," an Array Master, became their hope.
"This array formation temporarily reveals itself to contain the Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams. I need time!"
Li Yunjing couldnât afford to speak with them right now, his eyes fixed firmly on the various scenes within the mist. His eyes shone with divine light, not missing any clues.
As long as itâs an array formation, there are always traces to follow. It will not appear out of thin air. Once the nodes of the formation are found, destroying one can break the array!
Itâs just that with pursuers behind and an unknown female cultivator blocking the front, what Li Yunjing lacked the most was time.
"Prepare for a battle with both sides! We might have to risk it all!"
Finally, Li Yunjing made one last directive and then stopped speaking, focusing all his attention on observing the surroundings.
Being an Array Master, Li Yunjing understood the principles of arrays. His observations werenât random but followed the positions of the Eight Trigrams and the Nine Palaces, probing each node one by one.
His efficiency was a hundred times better than random viewing!
As Li Yunjing was probing the array, the Golden Eagle King had also entered the mountain. Five shamans shouted towards the woman in white: "Fairy, the people who fled earlier are also our enemies. They have trespassed into your fairy land. Why not join forces to kill these bastards together?"
"Scram!"
Who wouldâve thought that the woman in white had no intention of cooperating? Her eyes were filled with disdain as she looked at these barbarians.
"What?"
The Golden Eagle Kingâs five shamans were stunned by these words. Their bodies stiffened, and their movements became rigid, seemingly unable to believe how she could speak in such a manner.
"Think carefully! We are from the Spirit Bone Tribe. How dare you speak to us like that?"
The leading shaman was furious and shouted loudly.
"Mere barbarians want to cooperate with me? Ridiculous! Iâll handle my own enemies. If you donât scram, Iâll deal with you too!"
The woman in white was even more unyielding, seemingly ready to fight at the slightest provocation.
"Audacious! A mere Tier-One woman! How dare you act insolently before me! Iâll devour you first!"
The Golden Eagle King initially didnât bother with the woman, but seeing her arrogance, he couldnât help but shout in anger.
The intelligence of a Tier-Three Demon King was no different from humans, and these words didnât surprise the woman; however, they had angered her.
The woman then took out a white jade long box from the Hundred Treasures Pouch.
She opened the box, revealing a long piece of incense. A spark flashed in her hand, lighting the incense.
Instantly, the incense emitted a faint pink smoke.
"Huff..."
She blew towards the smoke, and with a "huff," the pink smoke rolled and swept towards the Golden Eagle King.
"Not good! This is the Demon-Slaying Incense!"
The Golden Eagle King was about to retaliate, but upon a closer look, it trembled in fear, shocked to see such a devastating weapon in the womanâs possession.
The Golden Eagle King flapped its wings, turned around, and tried to escape.
"Evil creature! I let you go earlier, and you didnât leave! Now that Iâve wasted such a precious treasure, you still want to run? Utterly delusional!"
The woman sneered repeatedly, her beautiful face filled with killing intent.
Today, was really a case of sitting at home and disaster falling from the sky!
Originally, she was going to meditate and break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm Seventh Heaven, but unexpectedly, the bastards from the Shenxiao Dao Sect crashed into her Dao field, causing chaos.
Now, even barbarians and beasts dared to provoke her, infuriating her instantly.
This stick of "Demon-Slaying Incense" was a famous treasure for subduing demon beasts in the Immortal Cultivation Realm.
The legend says that "Demon-Slaying Incense" originated from another continent, developed by a great sect, specifically targeting demon beasts.
Inhaling even a tiny bit of this incense would poison a Tier-One demon beast to death; a Tier-Two demon beast wouldnât last long and would lose most of its resistance; a powerful Tier-Three Demon King could barely endure the toxic fumes of the "Demon-Slaying Incense," but its power would be suppressed by fifty percent.
Only a strong Tier-Four demon race could ignore this "Demon-Slaying Incense."
The Golden Eagle King wasnât strong, having barely broken through to the Golden Core Realm within a few decades. Upon seeing the "Demon-Slaying Incense," it was utterly terrified.
It wasnât worth fighting such a ruthless woman for the barbarians.
"Array, activate!"
Having spent such a high price and using a "Demon-Slaying Incense" worth tens of thousands of Middle Grade Spirit Stones, the woman naturally wouldnât let the Golden Eagle King escape.
She waved the small triangular flag in her hand once again, and in an instant, just like what the "Cyan Cloud Ship" encountered, the Golden Eagle King and the five shamans were also trapped in the illusions and couldnât escape.
"Hmph! My âNine Palaces Eight Trigrams Spirit-Sealing Arrayâ is a high-level Tier-Two array Iâve painstakingly studied. It specifically disrupts the minds of cultivators, making it impossible to distinguish east from west!"
Seeing that the array had trapped both groups, the woman in white smiled coldly, muttering to herself with pride.
She glanced in both directions and eventually, her figure flashed, flying near where the Golden Eagle King was trapped, bringing the "Demon-Slaying Incense" closer to it, fearing that some of the smoke would dissipate in the air and waste such a precious item.
"Howâs it going?"
While the woman trapped the Golden Eagle King and its companions, Fu Chao couldnât help but ask.
"Donât worry! Yunyi, Iâll take control of the âCyan Cloud Shipâ!"
Li Yunjing didnât look at Fu Chao but rather instructed Yu Yunyi.
"Alright!"
Yu Yunyi immediately stood up from the cockpitâs main control and handed the controls over to Li Yunjing.
Li Yunjing sat down and quickly adjusted the direction of the "Cyan Cloud Ship," slowly restarting the previous navigation.
"Boom!"
But the next moment, Li Yunjing, Yu Yunyi, Lv Ruoxi, and Fu Chao felt the ship shake. Observing the surroundings, they saw enormous storms sweeping from all directions.
Tornadoes thousands of feet high entangled the "Cyan Cloud Ship." Li Yunjing and his companions felt dizzy, as if the entire "Cyan Cloud Ship" was about to be torn apart by the storm.
Especially around Li Yunjing, they heard the "creak, creak" sounds, as if the "Cyan Cloud Ship" was disintegrating.
"Old Li! You got it wrong, weâre doomed!"
Even the bold Fu Chao was pale with fear, unable to help shouting to release his inner fear.
"Afraid of what? Itâs all illusions!"
Listening to the screams of Yu Yunyi, Lv Ruoxi, and Fu Chao, Li Yunjing felt irritated. The scene before him was so real that even he couldnât distinguish truth from illusion for a moment.
He hadnât anticipated that the array illusions set by this woman could be so powerful.
At this moment, Li Yunjing had no time to waste. He steadied his mind, continued steering the "Cyan Cloud Ship," and navigated through the storm.
As for the sounds of the "Cyan Cloud Ship" disintegrating, Li Yunjing ignored them.
His only worry was that the array seemed to warp space, and if they remained trapped, no matter which direction the "Cyan Cloud Ship" flew, they wouldnât be able to escape the arrayâs confines.
