Chapter 2430

"However, what is your intention in letting Yun Dan, Yue Shu, and that human kid guard those Profound Heaven items? As far as I know, this Two Rituals Dust-Extinguishing Array is actually a type of Immortal World array left behind by our ancestors, and the array eye doesn't need anyone to guard it at all. If that True Immortal truly broke into there, the array should have already collapsed and dissipated," the blurry figure asked curiously again.

"Hehe, I have my own reasons for doing so. Letting them stay in the array eye might eventually leave them a life," Ming Zun chuckled and didn't answer directly.

"Forget it. As the shadow of this alliance, I originally wasn't interested in your sneaky plans. But if I can get a True Soul Pill from this True Immortal, you must give it to me. With this pill, I will definitely be able to truly cultivate the Nine Tribulations Truth-Extinguishing Technique, and thus have hope of ascending to the Immortal World. But even if this matter can succeed, the price our alliance has paid this time is not small," the blurry figure said indifferently.

"If we can truly find the True Soul Pill, I will definitely give you one. As for the price, there is gain only with sacrifice. I believe the treasures carried by an immortal who has a way to descend to the lower realm are absolutely enough to compensate for this loss," Ming Zun said indifferently.

"I hope so. Alright, they have all set out, so I'll be off first. Ming Zun, don't fail to even take the True Immortal's first wave of attacks, and before the time is right, I will absolutely not take action to save you," the blurry figure chuckled and said, his body twisting, and he weirdly submerged into the void and disappeared again.

From beginning to end, this person's face and appearance were never revealed at all.

"Not take action to save me? The same words also apply to you. If your strike doesn't succeed at that time, I'm afraid it will also be very difficult for you to escape," Ming Zun muttered two sentences in a voice almost inaudible, a strange expression appearing on his face.

At this time, Han Li had already been led by the armored soldier, flew out of the Heaven Beyond Heaven, and plunged into the Two Rituals Dust-Extinguishing Array not far below.

According to Ming Zun's previous introduction, this array used over 36,000 array flags, array disks, and other array-setting tools to barely be successfully arranged, and just the top-grade crystals embedded in various places numbered in the tens of thousands, which was how it managed to cover most of the Mingsha Land within it.

As for the two array eyes, they were one in the south and one in the north, separated by a great distance.

Han Li sped along with the armored soldier, and after the time it takes to eat a meal, he finally arrived near the array eye he was responsible for.

Looking from afar, this so-called array eye was actually formed by eight giant golden pillars surrounding a tall altar.

The golden pillars were coiled with rosy light, layers of restrictive fluctuations were visible from time to time around them, and rows of armored soldiers were clustered all around.

And the altar was triangular, milky-white, smooth as jade, and the upper part was covered by a seven-colored light curtain. At the very top, something was vaguely flickering.

"Senior, this is the token to activate the array eye, and these personnel are all at your disposal. It's just that the altar has already opened its concealment restriction to prevent the other party from discovering it in advance, so you cannot go up, Senior," the armored soldier who led Han Li here, as soon as he landed with Han Li, took out a silver token and offered it with both hands, saying respectfully.

"This is natural. Although I am also very interested in the Profound Heaven item above, I won't do such a thing regardless of the overall situation," Han Li summoned it with one hand, and with a 'whoosh', it was taken into his hand out of thin air, he said indifferently.

"Thank you for your understanding, Senior. Then this junior will take his leave," the armored soldier stepped back a few steps and then soared into the sky again, shooting back toward where he came from.

Han Li then lowered his head to examine the silver token in his hand. He saw that the object in his hand was shining with silver light, its surface engraved with countless tiny runes, arranged according to some extremely mysterious pattern, making one feel dizzy at a glance.

After playing with the token in his hand for a while, he flicked his wrist, put it away, and walked toward the altar with large strides.

"Greetings, Lord!"

Nearly a thousand armored soldiers bowed in unison as soon as Han Li approached.

"Rise. Since this place is now under my command, I have only one order: those who do not obey will be killed! Now, continue your vigilance," Han Li swept his divine sense over these armored soldiers and found that most of them were existences of the Deity Transformation and Void Refinement stages, but there were unexpectedly eight people with Body Integration cultivation, each leading a team to guard a golden pillar. After a thought, he said with an expressionless face.

"Yes."

These armored soldiers felt a chill in their hearts, but all agreed without hesitation, then stood up and continued to stand motionless around the golden pillars.

And Han Li's figure flickered, and his whole body seemed to be an intangible body, piercing through these armored soldiers and appearing directly below the milky-white altar in the center. After looking indifferently at the top, he sat down cross-legged.

"This seems to be the Two Rituals Micro-Dust Array of the Immortal World," Crab Daoist's somewhat surprised voice suddenly came from Han Li's divine sense.

"Two Rituals Micro-Dust Array? Shouldn't it be the Two Rituals Dust-Extinguishing Array?" Han Li's heart moved upon hearing this, and he asked back with the same divine sense.

"No. Although the Two Rituals Dust-Extinguishing Array is also a type of Immortal World array, its function is relatively simple, mainly used for killing enemies, and in terms of mysteriousness, it is far from one-tenth or two-tenths of this Two Rituals Micro-Dust Array," Crab Daoist replied without hesitation.

"Oh, then what mysterious uses does this Two Rituals Micro-Dust Array have?" Han Li's eyes flashed slightly and he asked slowly.

"The Two Rituals Micro-Dust Array mainly possesses three functions: trapping enemies, weakening, and self-destruction. No matter which one, it is enough to make ordinary immortals feel a great headache, especially the self-destruction power at the end. As long as the treasures or living beings sacrificed at the array eye are strong enough, even a high-tier immortal could possibly be buried within it," Crab Daoist said.

"Living being sacrifice, self-destruction?" Han Li felt a chill in his heart upon hearing this.

"That's right. The things sacrificed at the array eye can be some rare treasure materials, or those powerful living beings. Generally speaking, once the sacrifice begins, everything within a hundred miles of the array eye will be directly refined into ashes by the array's power as a sacrifice," Crab Daoist said unhurriedly.

"So that's how it is. I somewhat understand why Ming Zun wants me and the Yun Dan and Yue Shu siblings to guard the array eye and not leave easily," Han Li's expression didn't show any strangeness, but he said angrily in his divine sense.

"However, logically speaking, even the Two Rituals Dust-Extinguishing Array is not easy to arrange in the lower realm, let alone the Two Rituals Micro-Dust Array, which is far more complex. From this array eye, it seems it is slightly different from the Micro-Dust Array I know," Crab Daoist said again.

"Lower realm materials naturally cannot compare to the Immortal World, so it is likely that many parts were directly replaced with substitutes to barely arrange this Immortal World secret array. But in this way, the array's function and power should also be weakened and changed. Can you find the differences?" Han Li asked suddenly after thoughtful consideration.

"I am just a puppet specifically responsible for fighting, not a specialized array-setting puppet. Being able to recognize some Immortal World arrays is already my limit. Finding the specific differences is something I am incapable of," Crab Daoist replied frankly.

"This is somewhat troublesome. Although I want to deal with that True Immortal, I don't want to perish with the other party as a sacrifice," Han Li's eyes flashed a few times and he said coldly.

"If you only want to protect yourself, I do have a way," Crab Daoist said slowly after a moment of silence.

"What way?" Han Li asked, naturally feeling refreshed upon hearing this.

"I can make some small changes to the array eye here, so that when it exerts its final sacrifice function, it will treat your location as an exempt area," Crab Daoist said calmly.

"There is such a way? Is it reliable?" Han Li asked with a slight hesitation.

"Okay, let's do it," Han Li only contemplated for a moment before deciding decisively.

"Good, but I need the Devouring Gold Insect King to cooperate with my actions. Only this insect king can do this without a sound," Crab Daoist said.

"This is no problem. Jin'er, below, you do everything according to Crab Brother's instructions, and there must not be any mistakes," Han Li agreed immediately and ordered the Devouring Gold Insect King in the spirit beast ring with his divine sense.

In the following time, Han Li seemed to be sitting motionless, but a finger hidden in his sleeve flicked slightly, and a golden star flashed and shot out. After a flash, it submerged into the nearby void and disappeared without a trace.

The next moment, near a golden pillar, a weak fluctuation that even a Body Integration cultivator could not detect occurred, and a golden beetle the size of a grain of rice appeared out of thin air.

This beetle, after a blur, stuck to the pillar out of thin air, then moved silently, leaving behind tiny spiritual patterns that were almost invisible to the naked eye as it crawled.

At the same time, Crab Daoist's cold instructions echoed in the golden beetle's divine sense, and complete array patterns kept emerging in the beetle's mind.

All of this, the merchant alliance armored soldiers guarding this golden pillar naturally didn't notice the subtle changes in what they were guarding.

Not just this golden pillar, in the following time, the other seven pillars were also successively tampered with by the Devouring Gold Insect King, which had shrunk countless times.

In another high altitude of the Mingsha Land, Great Ascension strong experts like Yingangzi and the bald man were hiding in a void, some standing straight, some sitting cross-legged with their eyes closed, but all of them were silent with solemn expressions.

Suddenly, a fluctuation occurred nearby, and Ming Zun unexpectedly appeared and condensed out as if he were an intangible body.

"Brother Ming! Only you? Where are Fellow Daoist Han and the Yun Dan and Yue Shu siblings!" Madam Wu Ling swept her gaze over Ming Zun, her eyebrows furrowed as she asked.

The other Great Ascension stage cultivators also showed traces of surprise on their faces.

"Fellow Daoist Wu Ling, don't worry. I have already asked Fellow Daoist Han and the three of them to guard the array eye of the Two Rituals Dust-Extinguishing Array. In this way, as long as the array is not broken, we can let go and deal with that immortal without any worries," Ming Zun said with an unchanged expression. (To be continued.
