Episode 139

  The insufficient fantasy array is formed. The array is like a dark forest, dim and unclear. Inside, ancient trees reach the sky, vines spread across the field, weeds are scattered everywhere, with almost no clean land. A little further away, in the darkness, on the grassy slope, something is crawling, like a slightly larger insect. When approaching closer, it turns out to be a person! His entire body's clothes are torn and tattered, no longer covering his body, looking like a beggar. The corners of his mouth have fresh blood, his eyes' divine light is dim, also like the appearance of being about to die.

  "Hmm! ... Ah yeah! ... Oh oh! ..."

  He slowly turned his body, and beneath him was a stone already stained with bright red color. He slightly moved his back against the tree trunk and sat down. He lifted his arm and wiped away the bloodstains on his lips with the torn sleeve of his robe.

  "It's fine, it's fine. Although I narrowly escaped death, the law array was successfully formed, what a blessing! Haha... Ah also! This time I suffered heavy losses, I'm afraid my internal organs are injured."

  He shook his head, swung his arms, pinched his legs, and suddenly frowned and smiled slightly:

  "Good! No harm done to the body, only a few strands of vital energy were lost. This family is destined for great fortune, what's there to fear from petty people! Haha... Oh, oh, oh, it hurts me to death!"

  This is exactly the case of history being insufficient for a person. At this time, he was laughing loudly on one side and enduring the pain of his whole body on the other, with an extremely strange appearance. He straightened his body, according to his usual old habits, and released his spirit to examine it. The two cultivators outside the formation were about to arrive, and even their eyebrows and eyes moved slightly, which was clearly visible. When he heard their conversation, he suddenly became serious, and his laughter stopped abruptly. At that time, it was exactly when Kong Lao and Xie surname cultivator were discussing the secrets of the ancient linked ring formation. Although Insufficient had practiced many things, but deeply, there was only the way of the formation. At that time, he heard that the ancient linked ring formation actually used a strong ultimate array as its base array, with the power to defy heaven, and his mouth was wide open, unable to close it for a long time.

  "How can the formation be set up so wonderfully! Heaven's will! Whose idea is this, daring to go against heaven and earth like this?"

  Insufficient to hear the words, foolishly sitting silently. Previously, it was also insufficient for everyone to think about the law array, and they didn't expect it to be like this! Using an extremely powerful array as the foundation array? Isn't that a joke?! However, Insufficient suddenly stopped speaking, turned around and looked at the desolate land on both sides, as if thinking deeply.

  The two outside the array exchanged a glance at this time, and Grand Elder Kong loudly shouted:

  "Unite! Break through!"

  Two cultivators simultaneously activated their techniques. A sword and a feather fan rose into the air, about ten to twenty feet above the ground, striking fiercely towards the dense forest. The sword transformed into thousands of illusions, rising with a whistling sound, filling half of the space with its shadow, cold light flashing everywhere, slashing down madly, the sword light advancing and retreating in succession, as if endless. At the same time, Kong Lao's feather fan gently swayed, seemingly gentle as a breeze on a clear day, yet beneath it, the forest's space was greatly disturbed, trembling violently, surpassing even ten thousand swords.

  Xie Chang Lao was shocked and looked at him with a hint of fear in his eyes. As they were both in the realm of Xiao Yuan Man, the difference in their divine powers was great indeed!

  Insufficient to stare at the Second Repair's powerful breaking array, with a dim gaze. Although there is a large array covering it, from the inside looking out, all things are clear and visible. Insufficient to watch the Second Repair's attack intensity, knowing that this array can only be defended for a short time, and then it will definitely break. At this time, the surrounding space shook more violently, and it was obvious that the two repairs outside the array had already launched an even stronger attack!

  "When I think of a good plan, otherwise my life is over!"

  Insufficient to climb towards the grand formation and the desolate stone array connected place, carefully examine, painstakingly ponder.

  "Using a certain method to arrange troops, one cannot use the large formation as the foundation and then create a new formation. However, connecting two formations indeed has a method that can be relied upon! But why is it that when two formations are connected, either their might is greatly increased or reduced to almost nothing? If it increases, it's extremely good; if it decreases, it's disastrous! What should one do?"

  The eyes see a great array of wailing and weeping, almost on the verge of collapse. Insufficient to express hatred, he said:

  "Let it be! Let it be! Death is all there is, what's there to fear!"

  He then used the ancient secret method to connect the two arrays. As soon as the last piece of concentrated spiritual material fell into place, the two large arrays were quiet and soundless, just like before, with no difference between them.

  "Could it be that the ancient secret manual is actually fake! ...... Hmph! What bad luck! Is this going to be the death of me?"

  Insufficient! Great disappointment! Lifting one's eyes to observe in all directions, the space trembles even more violently.

  "Hey! Since we're all going to die anyway, what's the difference whether we charge into this stone array or not?"

  Insufficient strength to crawl towards the stone array. Section by section, segment by segment, like a worm, it is clear that this time's injury is quite severe. However, after all, gradually approaching the central stone platform.

  Suddenly, a stifled hum, face changed greatly, as if violently dead! Eyes bulging out, mouth open with tongue sticking out, throat making a humming noise, unable to speak. The body's covering of tattered cloth suddenly shattered into fragments, almost turning to dust. Muscles and bones without warning were torn apart like a sudden severe pain. The entire body was like being trampled by ten thousand horses, skin torn apart, flesh and blood about to fly away.

  "Aiya! The divine power of heaven and earth! This circular formation of stones, no more than a hundred feet in diameter, is actually controlling the divine power to infuse into the array! This time, it's likely that we won't be able to escape our fate!"

  In the midst of panic and chaos, he hastily employed his killing technique to control the inner workings of his body, allowing his spiritual energy to permeate his muscles and resist the external forces that were tearing him apart. However, his physical strength was weak, and it was like trying to put out a fire with a cup of water - how could he possibly withstand the might of the divine energy? Insufficient as he was, he gritted his teeth in agony on one hand, while using all his might to roll around on the ground like a rolling log, rushing towards the stone pedestal. The scene was such that it would be no exaggeration to compare him to a beast.

  Next to the stone platform, there were several levels of stairs. Just as I was about to climb up, the atmosphere around the stone array suddenly became chaotic and turbulent, like a stone had been thrown into still water, creating visible ripples. In my astonishment, I suddenly felt a great reduction in the tearing force around me, my heart feeling slightly lighter. I quickly climbed onto the platform, not even noticing the torn skin on my body. After reaching the top of the platform and struggling to stand upright, I looked down and saw that the surface was carved with intricate patterns like knife engravings, with several mysterious symbols etched into it. One symbol was a fiery red color, looking like smoke and flames. The central symbol had a dark blue hue, resembling water droplets. Another symbol had an ink-like stain, its pattern vague and unclear, with the rest of the object invisible.

  "What is this? Why is it carved on top?"

  Boom, boom, boom......

  The sound of the mountain echoed continuously, not enough to make me turn back in fear. I saw that half of the Hand-Weaving Array was extinguished and half was still shining. The stone array inside and outside had a heavenly energy like bubbles on water, gradually disappearing one after another, and then suddenly reappearing.

  Insufficiently fearful, he again lowered his head to examine the carved diagram, and saw that a fireball was right in the center, about the size of a fist. A stone slightly protruded, and with one palm strike, the stone didn't move. He once more mobilized his internal energy, wanting to touch it with his palm. Suddenly, an explosive sound boomed beside his ear. The atmosphere of destruction from all eight directions rushed towards him. Insufficient was knocked to the ground, but his palm was pressed right on the stone. He felt the sky spinning and the earth rotating, and in front of his eyes, a golden light like threads twisted and coiled, densely packed, layer upon layer, gradually forming a golden trumpet-shaped object. Although this object had no physical contact with him, it seemed to have an irresistible pulling force. Insufficient's entire body was as if controlled by an invisible giant hand, being pulled into the passage of this golden thread.

  Pitifully inadequate, at first, when touching the strange rock, he bowed his head and bent his waist, his body like a folding screen. At this moment, it was also like this, his body like a folding screen, spinning like a windmill, swift as a whirlwind, more like a lightning bolt, and then suddenly rumbling forward. And several feet behind him, a ball of fire in the shape of a dragon chased after him relentlessly. Or perhaps due to the constraints of this strange cave, the fireball also followed slowly, never deviating by half an inch, nor falling back by a single fraction.

  At this moment I felt dizzy and disoriented, unable to distinguish up from down or left from right. All I could do was silently pray in my heart, "Don't let me lose my life here!"

  Suddenly, I felt a tremor throughout my body, and then a gust of wind hit me in the face. The golden passage seemed to have disappeared, but just as I caught my breath, there was another muffled sound, 'Boom', followed by a burst of flames rising up, and then a pungent smell of charred meat wafted into my nostrils.

  "What is burning?"

  Hissing... Insufficient on one side, like a windmill spinning rapidly, on the other side, lift up the nose and sniff.

  "How did it get so tender and fragrant?"

  Slightly bring out the divine insight.

  "Heavens! How did I get a fireball wrapped around me?! Ah! Ah........."

  Cries of agony continued unabated.

  "Some family is also burning!"

  Insufficiently loud cry, heart filled with fear and no match, knowing that the previous time's roasted meat fragrance was actually its own body being burned.

  "It's burning like this, isn't it a call to light the sky lantern! No! Can't die in such a miserable way! Must think of a solution!"

  Enduring the scorching pain on her skin, she thought positively.

  "Water can overcome fire, use water to attack it!"

  Insufficiently searching through the methods I've learned, although having the great techniques of the Five Elements in my mind, yet my realm is only at the level of Condensing the Origin, how can I possibly control and move them?

  "Rice is hard to cook!"

  In times of emergency, the consciousness is not enough to protect the body. Although the spirit has not yet been ignited, the original power of the Dharma is insufficient, and it cannot withstand the strong pulling force from outside the body, as if it wants to leave the body.

  "Heaven will destroy some families! Alas? Alas?"

  Sighing and saying with a deep breath:

  Finally closed his eyes!
