Chapter 1120: Chapter 688: Ultimate Piercing, Path of Transforming into a Rainbow, Reunion with an Old Friend
"Amazing..."
Meng Chuan nodded secretly, his expression slightly surprised.
If not for his significantly increased resistance, Wang Yi’s move could have really given him a hard time.
The pressure grew ever more immense, and Meng Chuan considered whether he should barely change form to break the array with extreme strength.
His eyes flickered for a moment, then he suddenly thought of something and abandoned the idea.
Respect the way of the array!
Recalling Master Bai Bao, who could almost reverse time...
Meng Chuan raised his eyebrows, pressed his lips, and nodded.
He decided to also respect Wang Yi a bit, lest he plough through one layer only to be met with another, and find himself in an endlessly complex doll’s nest of tricks.
The combination of Qi Blood, Martial Arts, and array techniques had already revealed its tricky nature.
Wang Yi’s level was still far from being related to the ’way’.
But Meng Chuan could glimpse the power outside Martial Arts from within, realizing it was not to be underestimated.
"Buzz!" A large black cap clasped onto Meng Chuan’s back.
The Hard Skill Treasure Light supported by Baxia Heaven-Supporting Skill eased considerably in the water area.
Immediately after, Meng Chuan used his advantageous control over his body to slowly familiarize himself with the direction of the water’s compression, leaning towards harmonizing with it rather than resisting, drastically reducing the pressure.
The heaven-reaching power receded slightly backward.
Meng Chuan racked his brain, beginning to ponder how to ’break the array with finesse’, slowly allowing the all-encompassing wisdom to gain the high ground...
Outside the array, Wang Yi was both performing hand seals and, leveraging the power of the array, sensing Meng Chuan being trapped within.
With the Water Curtain Lotus together, under the rolling waves, the water curtain became all the more solid.
This was the method to trap the enemy.
Within the array, the eight positions of Dui, Kan, Gen... and Qian of the Eight Trigrams, Wang Yi sensed where Meng Chuan’s frame leaned towards, tightly gripping the blade staff in her right hand, grasping tighter. Columns of water rose from the corresponding array positions, savagely smashing towards the trapped opponent!
Boom boom boom!
The collision sound of the shocking waves pierced through the water curtain, ringing in her ears.
A slight satisfied smile appeared on Wang Yi’s face. Though she couldn’t see, she could sense Meng Chuan scurrying about like a headless fly.
"Getting anxious? Now’s too late to be anxious. You must pay the price for your arrogance!"
With a thought, her powerful mental strength circulated, once again pushing the water curtain to fraction into wave after wave of attack.
She pointed with the blade staff in the void, inducing the columns of water to repeatedly bombard the trapped shadow.
At the commentary desk, the esteemed commentator Wang Yang glanced at the data in his hand.
Seeing Wang Yi’s third-person perspective, his voice resonated:
"Ladies and gentlemen, the Water Curtain Lotus formation is complete!
This formation blends the transformations of the Eight Trigrams, drawing upon the infinite power of the emerald sea, with eight critical points, interlocking, layer upon layer. At this moment, the pressure inside the formation is approaching a terrifying ten thousand tons, each water column’s strike comparable to a grandmaster’s full-force blow!"
Li Wenshu seemed to recall something, his eyes showing a thoughtful expression, before slowly adding:
"The array is intricately set up, but once formed, it allows the one who sets it to manipulate power far beyond their own capability."
This kid is in trouble...
The key to breaking the array, in his view, lies in breaking through a single point to disrupt the entire array.
Not through brute force, but through precise manipulation of the power structure and penetration, tearing the core of the array, thus escaping.
Can Meng Chuan accomplish this?
Breaking through a point to disrupt the whole is an advanced martial logic beyond ’Unity of Man and Weapon’.
The spear path he pursues—"The Way of Transforming into a Rainbow," is also formed by this principle.
If Meng Chuan could accomplish it, Li Wenshu thought, even if he doesn’t take him as a disciple, he must impart his research on "The Way of Transforming into a Rainbow" to him.
After all, Meng Chuan uses a halberd, not a spear.
Inheritance is not only a matter of master-disciple relationships.
As a trailblazer on this path, extending a hand to fellow pathfinders is also a form of inheritance.
I am not alone on my path!
Li Wenshu locked his gaze onto Meng Chuan, watching what his next move would be...
...
Comparable to a Martial Arts Grandmaster’s full-force strike!
The audience remained silent, watching the man within the array...
Within the Water Curtain Lotus, Meng Chuan stood bare at the very center of the formation, arms crossed in contemplation.
Remaining unmoved amidst the crashing waves.
The current situation was far less dire than Wang Yi imagined.
Frequent activation of the array by Wang Yi allowed Meng Chuan, using his Qi Observation Skill, to discover a lot.
Previously at Wudang Mountain, Meng Chuan had already practiced the Nine Palace Tai Chi Strength with Uncle Master Zhao Shousui, learning the method for discerning the Eight Trigrams’ positions.
The eight positions constructed a perfect arc, also serving as the array’s energy supply hub.
Simply put, the driving core of the array is what Master Bai Bao roughly explained to him as the "formation eye".
"Entering the array, first locate the formation eye, prioritize attacking the most stable, most core, and most concentrated area, and the formation will naturally break."
Recalling Master Bai Bao’s teachings once again, Meng Chuan gradually formed a plan in his mind.
Despite layers of water waves like a black iron curtain, his mental strength, through practicing secret techniques like ’soul separation’, was not inferior to peak Three Limits array masters like Wang Yi.
Through the ripples generated by every attack Wang Yi launched against him, he has now locked onto the formation eye of the Water Curtain Lotus.
"Eight, quite a few..."
Meng Chuan uttered a rare sigh.
With a flick of his hand, dark light particles gathered in his palm.
A cold gleam snaked upwards, and he grasped a ten-meter-long divine halberd firmly!
At the commentary desk, host Dong Xin’s eyes lit up, announcing loudly:
"Ladies and gentlemen, Meng Chuan has wielded a weapon, the Divine Halberd!
This is his first time taking out a weapon on the field, showing just how tricky Wang Yi’s array is!"
"Look closely! Meng Chuan’s weapon!"
The Divine Halberd, extremely rare.
The gaze of countless Martial Arts enthusiasts was firmly fixed on the halberd, filled with envy, promptly gasping deeply in their hearts.
