Chapter 1916: Heavenly Sword, Demon Vibration!
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
The mountain wall looked ordinary, covered in moss and vines, indistinguishable from the surrounding rocks."The Transmission Array... should be nearby." Luo Qingchen carefully swept the mountain wall with his Divine Sense, his brow slightly furrowed. He could sense a trace of extremely faint spatial fluctuation, but the Formation was cleverly hidden, making it very difficult to find without the guidance of bloodstains.
"Let me try!" Su Xiaowan volunteered, pulling out a stack of golden Talismans from her chest, "I have Tracking Talismans and Breaking Charms..."
"No need." Luo Qingchen stopped her. These hidden Transmission Arrays set by the Demon Sect mostly have special restrictions and identification means. Randomly attempting to break them might trigger alarms or self-destruct mechanisms.
He extended his hand, a wisp of pure Chaotic Power swirling around his fingertip, carefully touching the spot on the mountain wall where the spatial fluctuation was most obvious. The Chaotic Power, invisible and formless, yet containing the fundamental characteristics of annihilation and creation, had an unexpectedly effective result in breaking restrictions.
The gray airflow seeped into the mountain wall silently, flowing along the obscure Array Patterns.
Buzz...
An extremely faint buzzing sound was heard.
The mountain wall in front suddenly undulated like water waves, and the originally solid rock became illusory, revealing a dim opening behind, only wide enough for one person to pass through, emitting a faint bloody scent and spatial fluctuation.
Deep in the opening, a circular stone platform engraved with complex runes and flickering with weak Spirit Light could be vaguely seen — it was the Transmission Array!
"Found it!" A hint of joy flashed in Lin Wan’er’s eyes.
"Hurry in!" Luo Qingchen shouted lowly, swiftly flashing inside first. Lin Wan’er and Su Xiaowan followed closely behind.
The moment they entered the opening, the mountain wall behind them restored to its original state, as if nothing had happened.
The light inside the cave was dim, with only the faint glow from the Transmission Array providing illumination. The air was filled with a strong bloody scent and a slight sulfuric odor, evidently proving that the Xuanyin Sect used this place frequently.
The Transmission Array looked fairly complete, yet Luo Qingchen could feel its Energy Core was somewhat unstable, seemingly slightly affected by the Xuanyin Sect Elder’s forced use of the Blood Escape technique earlier.
"Can this Transmission Array still be used?" Su Xiaowan looked at the flickering Array Patterns with some concern.
"It should be usable, but it might not be very stable." Luo Qingchen walked to the core of the Formation, carefully examining the energy circuits and Array Nodes, "Besides, we don’t know its destination. The Xuanyin Sect’s Transmission Arrays most likely lead to one of their outposts or branch locations, not necessarily safe."
"Then what should we do?" Lin Wan’er asked.
Luo Qingchen pondered for a moment, his gaze sweeping over the complex Array Patterns on the Transmission Array, his mind racing. Though he wasn’t considered proficient in Formations, his sense and control over energy with Chaotic Power surpassed ordinary levels.
"Maybe... we can try modifying its transmission coordinates." A bold idea flashed in Luo Qingchen’s eyes, "The Transmission Array set here by Xuanyin Sect is unlikely to lead directly to core areas like their main gate; it’s more likely connected to a transit station or an outer outpost. As long as we slightly deviate from the original coordinates, teleporting to nearby areas, we can avoid directly falling into their clutches."
Modifying the Transmission Array’s coordinates? That’s pure fantasy! Constructing a Transmission Array involves complex Space Laws and precise energy calculations. Any mishap, at best, leads to transmission failure, at worst, one gets swept into spatial turbulence, leaving no remains!
"Brother Luo, this... this is too risky!" Lin Wan’er hurriedly dissuaded.
"Let’s take a gamble." Luo Qingchen’s eyes were firm, "Staying here, waiting for the outsiders to finish and come for us, is even more dangerous. Trust me."
He hesitated no longer, taking a deep breath, cautiously channeling Chaotic Power into the core Array Node of the Transmission Array. That was the key to energy convergence and spatial positioning.
Buzz... Buzz... Buzz...
The Transmission Array seemed to sense the intrusion of foreign power, its Array Patterns flickering uncertainly, emitting uneasy buzzing sounds.
Luo Qingchen held his breath and focused, the Chaotic Power acting like the most precise scalpel, analyzing the complex energy structure inside the Array Node bit by bit, trying to locate the critical point for controlling the coordinate positioning.
Time ticked by, and fine beads of sweat appeared on Luo Qingchen’s forehead, his face turning somewhat pale. Modifying the Transmission Array demanded a high level of Divine Thought and energy control, consuming greatly.
Just then, faint footsteps and suppressed conversations suddenly came from outside the cave!
"Elder, how are you?"
"Not dead yet... *cough cough*... Quickly, activate the Transmission Array and leave here! Those mad dogs from Heavenly Sword Sect, along with that damned cloaked man, are no easy ones!"
It’s the Xuanyin Sect people! They hadn’t gone far but returned, also wanting to escape through this Transmission Array!
"Not good!" Lin Wan’er and Su Xiaowan’s faces changed simultaneously!
Outside the entrance, the urgent footsteps accompanied by suppressed conversations resembled death knells, beating on the hearts of the trio.
"Elder, how are you?" A slightly hoarse voice sounded, carrying concern and urgency.
"Not dead yet... *cough cough*..." The Xuanyin Sect Elder’s voice was weak yet still carried a hint of ruthless severity, "Quickly, activate the Transmission Array and leave here! Those mad dogs from Heavenly Sword Sect, along with that damned cloaked man, are no easy ones!"
Just as the words fell, the mountain wall at the entrance, previously rippling like water waves, suddenly shuddered, evidently from the outsiders attempting to forcefully open the entry by some means!
"Not good!" Lin Wan’er’s face instantly turned ghastly pale, instinctively clutching the Longsword in her hand, protecting Su Xiaowan and Bai Ling’er on her back.
Su Xiaowan was even more frightened, her small face turned white, clinging tightly to Lin Wan’er’s cloak, peering at the entrance, murmuring softly, "It’s over, we’re trapped inside! Now we’re really going to be caught and made into Demon Soup..."
Luo Qingchen was, at this moment, more focused than ever. Beads of fine sweat covered his forehead, his face turning somewhat pale from the intense consumption of Divine Thought and Chaotic Power, yet his eyes were dazzlingly bright. The wispy Chaotic airflow at his fingertips was traversing, penetrating, parsing the Transmission Array’s core, with precision unthinkable to ordinary people.
"Found it... it’s here!" Luo Qingchen’s heart shouted low, the Chaotic Power suddenly condensed, like a skilled craftsman finding the thread, accurately tugging the critical energy flow controlling the spatial coordinate positioning!
Buzz——
The core of the Transmission Array suddenly burst with blinding light, and the entire Array Platform shook violently. Countless runes frantically circulated, emitting increasingly urgent and uneasy buzzing. A massive and chaotic spatial energy began gathering and twisting above the Array Platform, forming an extremely unstable vortex!
"It’s done!" A hint of joy flashed in Luo Qingchen’s eyes, but was immediately replaced by solemnity. He could feel that this modified transmission was extremely unstable, almost forcefully tearing space, fraught with unpredictable dangers.
But, there was no time to hesitate!
Boom!
At this moment, the restrictive barrier on the mountain wall at the entrance was finally forcibly breached by the outsiders! The hard rock exploded with a roar, debris flying everywhere! The Xuanyin Sect’s Golden Core Elder, with a face ashen and aura withered, led three equally battered and blood-soaked disciples, appearing at the entrance!
When they saw Luo Qingchen and his two companions standing by the soon-to-be-activated Transmission Array inside the cave, they were first stunned, then their eyes erupted with incredulous fury and killing intent!
"It’s you?!!" The Golden Core Elder was shocked and furious. He never expected that, just as the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind, there was even another "fisherman" who got ahead, finding their secret Transmission Array! And from the looks of it, they intended to activate it!
"Youngsters! Looking for death! Get out of my way!" The Elder roared furiously, disregarding his injuries, raising his hand to unleash a dark green Yin Thunder condensed with remaining Mana, carrying a pungent fishy smell, blasting towards Luo Qingchen at the forefront!
