Chapter 1583

The old man smiled bitterly and said, "It looks like you two only recently joined the Tai Ling Pavilion, right?"

Luo Tian and the other nodded.

The old man sighed and said, "Then it's no wonder! Back then, I suffered some injuries, and my cultivation was almost ninety percent destroyed, so I lived in seclusion here! But later I discovered that there was an ominous object here that was harming all living beings and causing countless killings!"

"I had the heart to get rid of that guy, but unfortunately, I lacked the strength! Fortunately, your Tai Ling Pavilion Pavilion Master arrived here, so I asked him to make a move and use an array to suppress and kill that ominous thing!"

"And we agreed that after success, I would pay him back the array costs."

"It's just a pity that that ominous object was too powerful! Even with your Tai Ling Pavilion's array, it couldn't be completely wiped out, and could only be temporarily sealed!"

"And after that battle, my injuries were even more severe, and I didn't dare to leave this place easily, letting that ominous object escape to harm all living beings again! Therefore, I could only guard here."

"But because of this, there was no way to gather the money owed to the Tai Ling Pavilion."

After finishing, the old man sighed long and didn't speak anymore.

And Luo Tian and Xiaoya looked at each other, both understanding why this debt couldn't be collected.

It wasn't that the person didn't want to pay back.

This guy really had no money!

"What should we do?" Xiaoya asked.

Luo Tian was also helpless and said, "What can we do? We can only let it go."

As he spoke, he looked at the old man and said, "Fine, old man! I am the Vice Pavilion Master of the Tai Ling Pavilion, I'll make the decision, the debt between you and our Tai Ling Pavilion is wiped clean."

Upon hearing this, the old man suddenly looked up and said, "This... are you serious?"

Luo Tian nodded and said, "Naturally, I said I don't want the money, so I don't want it."

The old man shook his head and said, "I'm not asking about this, I'm asking... are you really the Vice Pavilion Master of the Tai Ling Pavilion?"

Luo Tian was startled, but still nodded and said, "Yes, what's wrong?"

The old man stood up abruptly and said, "Then... how is your array attainment?"

Before Luo Tian could speak, Xiaoya said proudly, "My Vice Pavilion Master's array attainment is the best in the world!"

Upon hearing this, the old man sneered, "The little girl knows how to joke, how could there be such a young number one in the world... However, since you can become the Vice Pavilion Master of the Tai Ling Pavilion, I suppose you have some skills. I have a presumptuous request, I wonder if the Vice Pavilion Master can agree?"

Luo Tian blinked and said, "What is it?"

The old man sighed and said, "I want to ask you, Vice Pavilion Master, to help me set up an array!"

Luo Tian was speechless.

He was here to collect a debt.

How come he didn't get the money, and instead had to set up an array?

However, although he felt something was wrong, Luo Tian still frowned and said, "I wonder what array the old man wants to set up?"

The old man took a deep breath, tremblingly took out a jade slip from his bosom, handed it to Luo Tian, and said, "This is the array I have painstakingly designed over these years, I wonder if you can set it up?"

Luo Tian hesitated, took the jade slip, scanned it with soul power, and was immediately stunned.

"A Grade Nine array? And this array... is an array to perish together!" Luo Tian looked at the old man.

The old man nodded and said, "That's right, without such an array, that ominous thing cannot be killed! I want to ask the Vice Pavilion Master to use me as the suppression to suppress and kill that guy!"

Hearing this, Luo Tian couldn't help but look at the old man a few more times.

"Old man, what grudge do you have with that so-called ominous thing?" Luo Tian asked.

The old man shook his head and said, "It can't be called a grudge, it's just a matter of righteousness. That ominous object is at its weakest moment, if we don't kill it, it will recover sooner or later! By then, who knows how many people will lose their lives! Therefore, it's better to take advantage of this old and frail body while it's still useful to do more."

"This..."

Xiaoya was stunned for a time.

And after Luo Tian pondered for a moment, he suddenly asked, "Where is that ominous thing?"

Joy appeared in the old man's eyes, and he said, "You are willing to help me? That's great, follow me!"

As he spoke, the old man raised his steps tremblingly, led Luo Tian and Xiaoya deep into Fengling Mountain, to an ancient well.

Just as they arrived here, Luo Tian felt the power of the array all around.

Seeing this, the old man immediately explained, "Here, there are twelve Grade Seven immortal arrays, all from the hand of your Tai Ling Pavilion's old Pavilion Master, used to suppress the ominous thing!"

"It's just that, in these few years, the power of the array has become weaker and weaker, and it has gradually been unable to control that guy... at most three years, if you hadn't come, this guy would have broken free."

Upon hearing this, Luo Tian used his soul power to explore the surroundings and indeed detected a gloomy aura trapped in the ancient well.

And at this moment, the old man said to Luo Tian, "Vice Pavilion Master, you can start setting up the array!"

Luo Tian nodded and immediately used his soul power to write runes.

"Hmm?"

Seeing this, the old man was stunned and frowned, "Vice Pavilion Master, this array is wrong!"

Luo Tian didn't say anything and continued to write the array.

A moment later, an array was completed.

Hum!

In an instant, the inside and outside of the array were isolated from each other.

"Alright, now unlock the other arrays here," Luo Tian said.

The old man instantly realized something and said, "You want to solve that ominous thing yourself? That won't work, that guy, using ordinary methods, cannot be killed at all!"

However, Luo Tian didn't pay attention to him, reached out with his backhand, and directly crushed the array beside the dry well.

Boom!

At the same time, from the dry well, a streak of black energy soared into the sky.
