Chapter 766: Chapter 304: Slaying, Spoils, Inner Layer (Ten-Thousand-Word Combined Chapter) (5)

About an hour later.

The two finally reached the end.

This was also the entryway to the inner layer.

Buzz!

The inner layer’s defense array emitted powerful spiritual power fluctuations, distorting the surrounding space somewhat.

Yaoyao tapped her storage bag, and with a flash of dawn light, a series of detection array plates appeared in her hand. With the injection of a technique into each one, the array plates quickly fell around the array as Yaoyao sat cross-legged and began deducing.

Benefiting from the ten years of focused research on the secret realm barrier before.

Yaoyao spent only a few days.

She discovered that it was a compound Spirit Trapping and Locking Array, with a Reversed Spirit Evil Conversion Array nested within:

"Mother, this array is very tricky. The Spirit Trapping and Locking Array aims to trap the intruder’s spiritual power, preventing the use of powerful magic, while the Reversed Spirit Evil Conversion Array transforms the intruder’s own spiritual power into evil power, backfiring on themselves."

"Yaoyao, is there a way to break it?"

Yaoyao pondered for a moment:

"I need to first find the spiritual power link points between the array hubs, then use the spirit pattern stones to cut the connections and disrupt the spiritual power transmission. However, during this process, I’ll need mother to help me withstand any potential spiritual power impacts."

Liuu Meizhen nodded, summoned the double-headed blind-eyed python before her, and said:

"Alright, just go ahead and do what you need to do."

Yaoyao took a deep breath, took the spirit pattern stones from the storage bag, and began to cautiously approach the array. With each step, she felt the surrounding spiritual power surge toward her like a tidal wave. Her steps were light yet determined, like a petrel in a storm, unafraid.

When she got close enough, Yaoyao began using spiritual power to manipulate the spirit pattern stones. The spirit pattern stone flickered faintly in the air and slowly flew toward the array’s spiritual power link point. Suddenly, the array seemed to sense the threat, and a powerful spiritual power shockwave swept toward Yaoyao.

"Roar"

The double-headed blind-eyed python instantly spiraled around Yaoyao, and its body trembled, a cyan light shield covered down, protecting Yaoyao.

Rumble!

The spiritual power shockwave crashed into the shield, causing a deep rumbling noise, and the surrounding space trembled slightly.

Yaoyao was not disturbed by the sudden attack, her gaze became even more resolute.

The spirit pattern stone accurately landed on the spiritual power link point, and with Yaoyao’s spiritual power infusion, the spirit pattern stone began to take effect, severing part of the spiritual power transmission.

However, this also completely triggered the inner layer array.

Buzz!

The light within the array became more dazzling, and the surrounding spiritual power began to rotate crazily, forming a massive spiritual power vortex.

Yaoyao quickly took out an array flag from her storage bag and chanted a complex spell. Under her control, the array flag quickly inserted into the ground, forming a small defense array. This array emitted golden light, contending with those spiritual power vortices.

However.

The pressure within the vortex became increasingly strong.

"Roar"

Accompanied by a furious roar.

A Tier Three Peak Heaven-Devouring Beast condensed within the array.

The Heaven-Devouring Beast’s claws swung through the air.

With a ripping sound!

The double-headed blind-eyed python’s protection and Yaoyao’s established defense array were instantly destroyed.

The Heaven-Devouring Beast’s claws continued their momentum, rushing toward Yaoyao’s skull with lightning speed.

"Yaoyao, crush the Life Replacement Talisman, quickly!"

Liuu Meizhen’s pupils contracted.

At such close distance, Yaoyao couldn’t avoid it, and the terrifying aura of the Heaven-Devouring Beast had already locked her in place.

With Liuu Meizhen’s reminder.

In a panic, Yaoyao immediately crushed the Life Replacement Talisman in her hand.

At the same time.

The Heaven-Devouring Beast’s claws descended.

Boom!

Blood light exploded.

But the place where Yaoyao originally stood flickered with the light of the talisman.

On the other side of the cave mansion.

A pale-faced Yaoyao staggered out:

"Go!"

Liuu Meizhen flickered, grabbed Yaoyao, and immediately moved away from the array. The Heaven-Devouring Beast roared incessantly, but due to the limitations of the array, it could only remain trapped in place.

Yaoyao looked at the array that was just a step away from being broken, feeling a bit vexed:

"It’s a shame, just a little more."

"You silly child!"

Liuu Meizhen was taken aback with fright. If not for her husband’s foresight in giving a Life Replacement Talisman, Yaoyao’s life would have been lost. Yet this child wasn’t afraid, and instead regretted not being able to break the array in one stroke.

At the same time.

She also felt a pang of guilt in her heart.

She had been too eager for quick success and had been rash. She should have waited for her husband to arrive:

"Yaoyao, let’s go out and wait for your father."

The two of them hadn’t gone far.

They encountered Fu Changsheng coming at full speed using the Smoke Mist Illusion.

Fu Changsheng’s gaze swept over the two, and seeing that they were unharmed, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. Hearing that Yaoyao had almost lost her life, he was still in shock and reminded: "Yaoyao, in the future, when facing unknown dangers, do not act recklessly, understand?"

Yaoyao, the person involved, was rather carefree.

She nodded in acknowledgement.

Then turned to the matter she cared about most:

"Father, could the Cyan Flood Dragon assist in holding off the Heaven-Devouring Beast for just ten breaths of time? I can break through this inner layer defense array then."

Regarding the ways of arrays.

It was evident that Yaoyao was not only gifted but also obsessed with this path, to the point of disregarding her own safety.

Fu Changsheng saw her face still pale, evidently a side effect of using the Life Replacement Talisman, and hurriedly shook his head:

"Your mana hasn’t fully recovered, how can you break the array? You direct, and your mother and I will complete it."

Yaoyao was a bit disappointed she couldn’t personally break the array.
