Chapter 391: Opening the Mixed Primordial Array

A golden streak of light slashed the sky, racing straight toward the depths of Da Qing Shan.

Just as the Golden Light was about to enter Da Qing Shan's core area, a towering figure suddenly darted out of the forest, blocking the path as if teleporting.

Tie Zhan furrowed his brows, his copper‑bell‑sized eyes fixed on Jiang Feng in Yao Lao's arms, his face full of confusion.

"Yao Lao!"

Tie Zhan's voice was like a great bell, shaking the surrounding leaves into rustling.

"What's the matter? My brother Jiang Feng isn't moving at all—has he fallen asleep?"

He said while leaning forward, his earnest face full of puzzlement.

Yao Lao at this moment had no mind to explain so much to Tie Zhan, his brows twisted into a knot.

"Xiao Zhan, no time to explain! The situation is urgent!"

Tie Zhan was startled by Yao Lao's stern tone, and his head‑scratching stopped.

"Immediately activate the Mixed Primordial Array!"

Yao Lao's voice carried unquestionable authority.

"Jiang Feng's source is now exhausted, and at any moment his life could be in danger; only by activating the Mixed Primordial Array is there a chance to restore his vitality!"

"Mixed Primordial Array?"

Tie Zhan, hearing those four words, scratched the back of his head again.

His face showed a helpless expression, his tone bearing a hint of sincerity.

"Yao Lao, the Mixed Primordial Array? I can't activate it!"

"Of course I know you can't, but Xi Er can."

"I?"

Xi Er, hearing this, immediately thrust her head up, pointing a small finger at herself.

"Yao Lao, I have no idea what the Mixed Primordial Array is! I've never even heard of it—how could I activate it?"

Yao Lao's gaze lingered on Xi Er, his face full of kindness.

He let out a gentle sigh.

"Xi Er, there's something—actually I've never told you—that you are not an ordinary child."

"Not ordinary?"

Xi Er, bewilderedly, repeated the sentence, her big eyes full of confusion.

"Yao Lao, are you saying it's because I possess the Divine Farmer Emperor's Bloodline that Jiang Feng mentioned before?"

Yao Lao, hearing that, slowly nodded.

"That's right; strictly speaking, everyone in Taoyuan Village, and even the entire Yao Temple of those days, are children of the Emperor."

"Even this Da Qing Shan is not an ordinary mountain range; it was the place where the Divine Farmer Emperor attained enlightenment!"

"After the Emperor attained enlightenment, he left behind this Mixed Primordial Array, but the conditions to activate it are extremely stringent."

"Either one must be a peerless master who can break the Void Breach realm, or only someone with the Emperor's Pure Bloodline."

Xi Er's eyes lit up instantly at this.

"Yao Lao, does that mean that once the Mixed Primordial Array is activated, Jiang Feng will revive?"

As long as she can save Jiang Feng, not to mention merely activating a great array— even if it means she has to do something harder, she is willing.

Yao Lao, seeing the urgency in Xi Er's eyes, slowly nodded.

But immediately, a hint of hesitation appeared on his face, as if there were some unspeakable secret.

Xi Er, seeing Yao Lao's expression change, felt her heart tighten instantly.

"Yao Lao, what's wrong? Is there some problem?"

Yao Lao fell silent for a moment, as if making a great decision.

"Activating the Mixed Primordial Array is indeed the only way to save Jiang Feng at present; the array's nourishing power might repair his damaged source and bring him back to life. However…"

At this point, Yao Lao hesitated, his gaze landing on Xi Er's face, carrying a hint of unwillingness.

"But Xi Er, activating the Mixed Primordial Array may pose a considerable risk for you. You might suddenly acquire some unpleasant memories, and you could even lose your life because of it."

"This Mixed Primordial Array has lain dormant for a thousand years; after reactivating it, I cannot predict what it will bring. So I want you to think it through…"

Yao Lao's voice carried a hoarse edge; he actually didn't want Xi Er to take this risk, yet Jiang Feng's condition was already pressing.

Besides this method, he truly could not think of any other way to save Jiang Feng.

However, before Yao Lao could finish speaking, Xi Er suddenly lifted her head.

She said with a resolute tone.

"Yao Lao, I am willing! For Jiang Feng, I will do anything!"

Seeing Xi Er so determined, Yao Lao gently patted her shoulder and sighed.

"Good child, I'm sorry for the trouble."

Having finished, Yao Lao no longer hesitated, and with a sudden motion raised his right hand, swinging it!

Boom—!

Countless golden characters materialized out of thin air, as if alive, swirling and spiraling in midair.

These characters were profound and obscure; no one could decipher their meaning, yet they exuded an ancient and majestic aura.

Xi Er and Tie Zhan were both stunned by the miraculous sight before them, eyes wide, standing motionless as they stared at the golden characters.

Xi Er realized that this Da Qing Shan, which she had often played in since childhood, now seemed different.

The once-familiar flora, trees, and stones were now cloaked in a faint Golden Light.

Yao Lao slowly nodded, his gaze sweeping over the golden characters.

"This is the Mixed Primordial Array. It has silently guarded us for a full thousand years."

After saying that, Yao Lao turned his head to look at Xi Er, his gaze becoming extremely serious.

"Xi Er, now, close your eyes, calm your mind, and carefully feel. You just need to follow your own heart. The Primordial Unity Formation shares the same origin as the Shennong Great Emperor's bloodline within your body; it will tell you how to activate it."

Hearing this, Xi Er showed not the slightest hesitation and immediately closed her eyes.

In the next moment, she could clearly feel a warm power slowly flowing within her body.

Moreover, the surrounding golden characters seemed to sense the power of Xi Er's bloodline, dancing more joyously and gathering toward her from all sides.

Time passed bit by bit, and Xi Er still kept her eyes closed.

Just then, a golden light suddenly burst forth from beneath Xi Er's feet.

Immediately after, countless golden patterns emerged from the ground, spreading outward with Xi Er as the center.

These patterns resonated with the golden characters in midair, emitting ever stronger golden light.

The golden light over the entire Da Qing Mountain grew increasingly bright, and the ancient, solemn aura became ever richer.

That life-nourishing power was so palpable that even the nearby Iron Warrior could clearly feel it, feeling his whole body relaxed and his inner true qi becoming lively.

Xi Er could clearly feel that her bloodline power resonated strongly with the golden patterns on the ground.

A powerful force surged from all directions, enveloping her body.

She didn't know what to do, yet she had a vague feeling.

It seemed that as long as she had a single thought, she could control this mighty power and activate the legendary Grand Primordial Unity Formation.

And Yao Lao, seeing the golden patterns appear beneath Xi Er's feet, finally revealed a hint of relieved smile on his face.

The Primordial Unity Formation is finally about to be opened.

Jiang Feng, we're saved!
