After pondering for a moment, he waved his hand, and a palm-sized jade cup of emerald color appeared in his palm,
he injected mana to activate it,
and instantly a faint cyan light spread out, enveloping the surrounding hundred zhang area.
"Indeed, it’s the Forbidden Array, even the range of my Cyan Jade Cup is greatly compressed."
He immediately released his divine sense to sense the surroundings,
and indeed, the void power in the mist was all restrained, and no one would be void shifted to another place for a short time.
He then ordered the people behind him:
"Do not leave the area covered by this cyan light!"
"Yes!"
Everyone cupped their hands and responded in unison.
Many among them had already recognized that this Cyan Jade Cup was a void treasure.
And those who owned such treasures were all powerful cultivators, which relaxed their nervous hearts somewhat!
"Elder Zhou will surely lead us out!"
Zhou Xun looked around at the white mist, unable to distinguish the east, south, west, or north,
he waved his hand and took out the Small Divination Compass again,
his hands formed a seal and pointed towards the compass,
after a short while, a flash of light appeared, and a golden arrow appeared on the compass pointing northwest,
seeing this, Zhou Xun headed decisively in that direction.
Perhaps it was the effect of the Cyan Jade Cup, and for several consecutive hours, no one disappeared again.
The group followed him, walking for nearly a day,
at that moment, a passage appeared in the mist ahead,
Zhou Xun glanced at the compass in his hand, and it indicated that this was the correct direction.
Clenching his teeth, he continued down the passage,
after walking for about several thousand zhang, the view suddenly opened up, and an island whose vastness was unknown appeared before them.
It was shrouded by a gigantic light barrier, obscuring the details inside.
"It seems that the mist outside is meant to protect this island! Being protected by a Tier Four Top-Grade Array, the owner here is not ordinary!"
Zhou Xun carefully observed the array, but unfortunately, despite current array skills, it could not be broken,
if they could obtain a Tier Four Middle-Grade or higher Breaking Forbidden Treasure, combined with Zhou Xun’s Thousand-Answering Insect, perhaps there would be a chance to open a temporary entrance.
"Do you know the origin of this place?"
Feng Chong looked at the array in front of them and couldn’t help but marvel, feeling that even the Mountain Protection Array of the Sea Suppression Immortal City couldn’t compare.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Xun shook his head, he recalled the scriptures he had read and had never seen a record of this kind.
This array is impossible to break; the only option is to find another way out,
so Zhou Xun gathered everyone and instructed:
"This island should be inside the array, and temporarily there is no danger, so spread out and see if you can find anything!"
Hearing this, everyone nodded and agreed,
then each person headed in a different direction, carefully searching.
Zhou Xun stayed in place, carefully probing the array before him, hoping to discover something.
About half an hour later,
suddenly a young, handsome Core Formation cultivator walked over, his face barely concealing excitement as he approached Zhou Xun:
"Reporting to Elder Zhou, I found a stele here, it seems to be the entrance to this place!"
"Take me there quickly!" Zhou Xun’s eyes lit up upon hearing this, and with the young man leading, they headed to where the stele was found,
meanwhile, the other Core Formations also learned of the news and hurried over here.
Before long, everyone arrived in front of a five-foot-tall stele and began to scrutinize it:
"I, Fang Tianxing, established this heritage cave mansion, if a fellow cultivator has the fate to find the method to enter and break my array, the two heritages accumulated throughout my life can be taken at will!"
’Fang Tianxing,’ Zhou Xun murmured the name, could it be the Abandoned Mansion of True Monarch Celestial Star.
The next moment, it was confirmed.
"I read in the scriptures, True Monarch Celestial Star’s name is Fang Tianxing, this is the long-rumored True Monarch Celestial Star’s Cave Mansion of the South Sea!"
A voice full of surprise passed among the people, it was the white-garbed young man from before.
"Are you sure Fang Tianxing is True Monarch Celestial Star?" Zhou Xun asked again.
"There is no mistake, it is clearly documented in the scriptures, and what other existence besides True Monarch Celestial Star could have set up this array?"
"Indeed, all the signs indicate this is the True Monarch Celestial Star’s Cave Mansion, we... we’ve struck it rich!" another Core Formation cultivator couldn’t help but exclaim.
What was thought to be a great calamity in the mist now seemed to be a great opportunity.
This is True Monarch Celestial Star, even a casual leak of his possessions would be immense wealth to these Core Formation cultivators.
"According to the stele, as long as this array is broken, we can obtain the treasures inside, does anyone here excel at breaking arrays?"
"This array doesn’t seem any less than the Mountain Protection Array of the Sea Suppression Immortal City, can we truly break it?" a Core Formation cultivator smiled bitterly.
"Does Elder Zhou have a way to open this array?" at this moment, the white-garbed young man approached Zhou Xun and asked with cupped hands.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Xun shook his head:
"If I am not mistaken, this is a Tier Four Top-Grade Array, and no one in Central Continent can open it!"
"Are we to come into a treasure mountain and leave empty-handed?" the white-garbed youth questioned unwillingly.
"If anyone has a method, do not hide it, once out of here, there might no longer be a chance for us to touch such an opportunity!"
Everyone looked at each other, none had a good solution.
At this time, the young man unwillingly approached the light barrier, stretched out his hands, mana surging, and pressed against the light barrier,
the next moment,
a flash of light appeared, a huge force rebounded,
sending the young man flying backward, seriously injured.
At this moment, Zhou Xun also realized the problem, but even with his increased strength, he couldn’t forcefully break this array!
Throughout Central Continent, perhaps only True Monarch Yama could achieve it.
"Fine, when I find a Tier Four Middle-Grade or higher Breaking Forbidden Treasure in the future, I will come back to try here again!"
So Zhou Xun went to the side of the stele, reached out a hand and wiped it, letting a fingernail-sized jade stone fall into his palm.
Next time he comes, he can use this jade stone to quickly locate this place!
However, there is another problem, once they leave here,
the news of the discovery of the True Monarch Celestial Star’s Cave Mansion will likely spread, and they will face countless pressures knowing that.
After all, the inheritance of the True Monarch Celestial Star includes the method of setting up a Teleportation Array, absolutely a strategic existence,
the Three Great Influences will certainly not let it go!
Even Zhou Xun would find it extremely difficult to obtain the inheritance and treasures here.
"It seems that the news here must not be spread!"
Thinking of this, Zhou Xun made a decision, gathering the Core Formation stage subordinates.
"Does Elder Zhou have any instructions?" everyone looked around at each other perplexed.
"It can now be basically concluded that this island is indeed the Cave Mansion of True Monarch Celestial Star!"
"It’s a pity, the Mountain Protection Array is too resilient, we can’t break it, even entering a treasure mountain we can only leave empty-handed!"
"But once everyone returns, the news of this place will inevitably spread, the inheritance of True Monarch Celestial Star is coveted by many,"
"With your Core Formation stage power, many will certainly be interested in you by then!"
Hearing this, everyone suddenly realized,
yes, if they were Nascent Soul cultivators and learned of the True Monarch Celestial Star’s Cave Mansion appearing, and also knew several Core Formation had been in,
they would inevitably take these Core Formation cultivators away,
unfortunately, they were those Core Formation cultivators!
"The current plan is to strictly guard the news, never tell a second person about the emergence of the True Monarch Celestial Star’s Cave Mansion, so you may keep your lives!" Zhou Xun said calmly.
At this point, some clever people understood what Zhou Xun meant and immediately declared:
"True Monarch’s words are very true; I am willing to make a Heart Demon Oath, never to reveal the emergence of the True Monarch Celestial Star’s Cave Mansion to a second person,"
"if I violate this oath, let the Heart Demon destroy me!"
Hearing this, Zhou Xun nodded in satisfaction, these people were all favored disciples of the Immortal City’s old monsters, future Nascent Soul seeds,
the Heart Demon Tribulation is the first difficulty in advancing to Nascent Soul, and by swearing on it, they would not dare to violate it.
With someone leading, the remaining seven also swore the same oath, and only then did Zhou Xun feel relieved.
