Chapter 1950: Illusionary Stone Array
Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
Just as Jun Po’s White Jade Halberd and Ming Xie’s Dark Hell Flame appeared, they shattered the void, as it rushed onto the several hundred thousand sunlight bugs, and the clash tore their bodies apart as they disappeared.
In the blink of an eye, the monarchs of the four super power dynasties killed the sunlight bug king and the hundred thousand sunlight bugs behind it.
Huozhu Chi, Linglong Xue, Jun Po, and Ming Xie were far too strong, as the sunlight bug king and the bugs stood no chance and were all killed.
“It seems that this time, Huozhu Chi, Linglong Xue, and the others will get the treasures inside the Sun Monarch Tomb.”
“Duh, Huozhu Chi, Linglong Xue, Jun Po, Ming Xie, and the rest are all the peak masters of the entire Crimson Fire Continent. Legend has it that they each hold a Saint-level dharma treasure, and death is inevitable if you fight with them for it.”
“I only hope that Huozhu Chi, Linglong Xue, and the others will leave us some things once they’ve taken their big share of treasures inside the Sun Monarch Tomb this time.”
All the self-cultivators around discussed, as they looked at Huozhu Chi, Linglong Xue, and the others with shock in their eyes.
For the self-cultivators around, the sunlight bug king and the bugs were astounding existences. However, in front of Huozhu Chi, Linglong Xue, and the others, the bugs disappeared instantly. That was the difference between them and it was massive.
Qingfeng stood in the very back, as he overheard the people talk, and his eyes shrunk. He couldn’t believe that the Eight Trigrams Compass that Huozhu Chi had would be this powerful, as it was no less powerful than his Golden Flames.
At this moment, Qingfeng thought of many things. First, this Huozhu Chi was very powerful, and he was the descendant of the planet ruler, the Crimson Fire Monarch. Since that was the case, how powerful must the Crimson Fire Monarch be? Perhaps even a single finger of his could destroy a whole city.
Qingfeng had to increase his powers more than anything right now, because he knew that if he didn’t reach a certain level, then the planet rulers would definitely kill him when he left the Sun Mystic Realm.
He had to get the treasures inside the Sun Monarch Tomb and steal the precious Sun Technique so that he would have a chance against the Crimson Fire Monarch.
After Huozhu Chi, Linglong Xue, Jun Po, Ming Xie, the Devil Monarch, the Demon Monarch, the Ghost Monarch, the Wicked Monarch, and the others killed the sunlight bug king and the sunlight bugs, they didn’t hesitate at all and led all the self-cultivators behind them away. They flew into the air and headed towards the depths of the prairie borders.
There was a massive mountain range in the very front of the prairie roughly a thousand or so meters in size. Qingfeng frowned when he saw this mountain range, because they were underground. How could there be mountain ranges underground?
All that could be said was that the Sun Monarch was far too powerful, as he moved even an entire mountain range underground and built it inside his Tomb. It was a great construction.
The Peach Blossom She-devil walked to Qingfeng’s side and said quietly, “My ancestors once acquired some bamboo slips from inside the Sun Monarch Tomb, and it contained the information about his life and death. There is a miniature world inside his Tomb, and it could be called a little mystic realm.”
Qingfeng nodded and agreed with Peach Blossom She-Devil. He had already suspected that there might be a mini mystic realm inside this underground Palace. There were many things inside, along with many hidden dangers.
Now Qingfeng and the others had passed the two border points, while more dangers awaited them later on. Only once they’ve passed all of the dangerous points, would they be able to reach the Sun Monarch’s main tomb successfully and acquire the treasures inside.
This was also the Sun Monarch’s test for them. If they failed to crack even the dangerous traps inside the Sun Monarch Tomb, then they wouldn’t even know how to use the treasures inside, even if it was given to them.
Qingfeng closely inspected the mountain range before them, and felt something odd about it, with hidden special energy inside.
He turned around and spoke to Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake, “You two stay behind and watch out for movements.”
Qingfeng walked in the very front, as Sky Wolf Monarch walked on his left, and Mengyao on the right. Mengyao Xu trained in Fairy Sword Technique and was especially sensitive to certain dangers.
After Qingfeng and the others entered the mountain range, they walked for quite a while, and notice that they haven’t gotten from where they started.
Qingfeng looked at a massive rock in front of him and said, “I remember very vividly that this massive rock was right before us when we stepped into the mountain range. Now that we’ve walked for several hours, this massive rock is still here, which means that we didn’t walk very far at all.”
Xue Lin’s clear eyes blinked as she said, “Could it be that we’ve encountered a ghost-like maze, and only walked around in the same spot.”
“Xue Lin is right, this must be the legendary ghost-like maze, but it wasn’t ghosts. Instead it must have been someone who set up a kind of array that keep making us turn around in the same spot, without a way out.”
Qingfeng closely inspected around and noticed many scattered rocks around him, and most rocks were a meter tall. They gathered all over, in every spot, and trapped them all within.
Qingfeng knew of all sorts of arrays, and he could see through arrays below the Saint grade.
Qingfeng only saw the rocks around him, and his eyes lit with joy, as he said, “It’s an eight diagrams Illusionary Stone Array. It can trick our vision, even though we are walking straight, we were actually walking in a curve, and all of us have been trapped inside.”
Mengyao frowned and said, “Big Brother Li, do you have a way to solve it?”
Qingfeng lightly smiled and said with confidence, “Of course I can and I also can get all of us out. Just follow me.”
Qingfeng directly activated his clairvoyance ability with his right eye to release golden light and see through the surreal illusions. Then he walked to the left by one step, then the right by two steps, and left by three steps, right by four steps. He stepped in an odd way like a curve, but he was actually walking in a straight line.
Qingfeng frowned when he walked for a moment, because he walked correctly, but still failed to get out, as he stood in the same place and saw the same black rock.
Mengyao suddenly said, “Big Brother Li, I don’t think this black rock is as simple as it seems. It seems to move, and not be completely still.”
Xue Lin had the Ice Phoenix Bloodline inside of her, which was more powerful than Mengyao’s Fairy Bloodline, and she had also felt the above average powers of this black rock.
Xue Lin raised her finger to point at the black rock in front of her and said to Qingfeng, “Honey, look, there’s prints of movement on the grass underneath and around the black rock. The grass should be standing up, but it’s now pressed down, which means that this black rock must have moved around.”
