I Have a Compass for Opportunity

Chapter 218: Chapter 144: Sonic Shockwave Kill_2

Yet he, who had barely stepped into the study of arrays, still managed to forcefully set up an array in the Qi Cultivation Realm.

The kind that could pose a threat to those in the late-stage Qi Cultivation.

"Among the arrays of the Qi Cultivation level, there’s one called Refined Gold Breaking Mountain Array, which combined with Earth Erosion Heavenly Time and Earthly Advantage, is quite powerful. If there’s a suitable Spiritual Object to assist as the array’s eye, it could even threaten those in the Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer."

"If I collect more spirit stones from Star Erosion bodies, or use a stone orb directly as the array’s eye to activate that Refined Gold Breaking Mountain Array."

"Earth births metal, and the power of the Refined Gold Breaking Mountain Array will surely rise to the next level. It’s not entirely without chance."

Liou Yuan’s eyes grew brighter.

Relying solely on a Refined Gold Breaking Mountain Array to kill a Half-Step Foundation Establishment Purifying Dark Demon is still somewhat unrealistic.

It can only be said that this almost impossible task has found a slight turning point.

"At the very least, using the array to temporarily trap that Purifying Dark Demon while I take away that troublesome Profound Yin Cold Marrow Stone is better than doing nothing at all."

The Spiritual Object being closely guarded by the Purifying Dark Demon is likely extraordinary. If Liou Yuan can take one item, it can be considered compensation for the loss.

Liou Yuan thought more and more that it was feasible.

But the prerequisite for setting up that Refined Gold Breaking Mountain Array requires a large number of spirit stones, even stone orbs to serve as the array’s eye.

"For the remaining two-plus months, let’s prepare for this Refined Gold Breaking Mountain Array."

Having calculated, Liou Yuan was no longer panicked.

Do your best and leave the rest to fate. After all, he has the Fixed Star Compass in hand, and there will still be opportunities if he misses this chance.

With his spirits lifted, Liou Yuan began retracing his steps.

It took him nearly ten days to reach the location of that Purifying Dark Demon.

This was because he encountered many Star Erosions along the way, which needed to be cleared, and he was cautious of running into a Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer Star Erosion, so his pace was not quick.

Now, with most of the Star Erosions along the way cleared, and not having encountered a single Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer Star Erosion, it seemed this was due to the presence of that Half-Step Foundation Establishment Purifying Dark Demon in the canyon.

Two tigers cannot share one mountain, and the Star Erosions devour each other, so it seems that this is the reason why there are no Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer Star Erosions in the canyon.

Liou Yuan no longer needed to worry about unexpected encounters.

Abandoning the use of the Night Concealing Mask, he directly activated Treading Flowing Waves and shot towards the other end of the canyon.

In less than two days, he returned to the place where he previously entered the Erosion Land.

The first Star Erosion he had slain still lay there, but the traces of blood had dried.

"This thing smells bad even though the blood has dried." With a look of disdain, Liou Yuan skirted the land defiled by that Star Erosion and was about to continue exploring in a new direction.

He had just dashed out less than a hundred yards.

Suddenly, something unexpected happened.

Liou Yuan was using Treading Flowing Waves to rush, and as the brilliance of the Treading Flowing Wave Skill rippled across the canyon corner ahead.

Liou Yuan felt a sinking underfoot, as if something on the ground had restrained his legs.

He immediately looked down.

Only to see the soil underfoot moving in a bizarre manner, turning into a swamp-like state, engulfing Liou Yuan’s legs within it.

The swamp continued to engulf Liou Yuan’s body, and in just one or two breaths, it had reached his lower legs.

"Dare to trap me!" Liou Yuan’s eyebrows shot up, eyes glowing fiercely.

Having fought many Star Erosions, he knew well the methods they possessed.

This means of trapping him wasn’t something a Star Erosion could have.

The answer was obvious: it was a cultivator’s magic.

"It must be that within these ten days of my venturing deep into the canyon, a cultivator has entered this place." Liou Yuan had a sudden flash of thought, and he was already ninety percent sure.

Fortunately, this magic was meant to trap, without any offensive power. Liou Yuan’s eyes flashed violet as he used his Evil Eyes to swiftly scan the surrounding environment, attempting to find the careless perpetrator.

As Liou Yuan looked around.

Bang! The muddy soil within a radius of several feet boiled like liquid.

They rotated toward the center around Liou Yuan, forming a swirling mud vortex.

The suction that pulled Liou Yuan downward also became stronger.

Boom! Liou Yuan’s body shuddered, his blood surging, as the explosive force of his blood blasted the surrounding omnipresent mud and sand away in all directions.

At the same time, Liou Yuan found the location of the enemy using this technique on him through his Evil Eyes.

On a small platform protruding from the left canyon wall, there were two cultivators’ Spiritual Power fluctuations, one in the Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer, the other in the Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer.

They were using some unknown magic to change the color of their forms, perfectly blending into the surrounding brown rock.

This disguise was enough to deal with ordinary cultivators, but it couldn’t fool Liou Yuan’s eyes. freewёbnoνel.com

"Found you!" Liou Yuan sneered with a wicked grin.

Clang! The Canglan Sword was unsheathed, sweeping a blue arc light toward the two of them to strike.

The two never expected their position to be discovered so easily.

And the scene where Liou Yuan used his blood energy to break the swamp’s restraints was witnessed by them, causing them to hastily scramble away from their hiding place.

Rumble! The sword light from the Canglan Sword shattered the platform where the two were hiding. freewebnøvel.coɱ

"Artifact Control Skill! Tough opponent, retreat!" The Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer person exclaimed, seeing clearly Liou Yuan’s methods and already having no intention of engaging.

Once the words fell, the two swiftly climbed up the canyon wall like geckos.

"Hmph!" Liou Yuan snorted coldly, propelling himself out of the mud and sand.
