Free Web NovelChapter 242: Tier 4 Mist Obstruction Formation
As Tang Yin, Xiao Fei and Old Ape rode the Crimson Feathered Luan through the skies, Old Ape suddenly spoke up after a bit of hesitation, "Master, there is a forbidden zone in the Crimson Tree Forest."
Tang Yin raised an eyebrow, "Hm, what’s so special about this forbidden zone?" Old Ape would not have mentioned this if there was nothing special about this forbidden zone.
"It has been sealed off by what you humans call an Array Formation. It is powerful enough to withstand High-tier Rank 6 Demonic Beasts." Old Ape explained briefly.
Tang Yin contemplated for a moment. Since this forbidden zone was sealed off by an Array Formation, it must contain something unordinary. Not specifically a treasure, but the possibility still existed.
"Us Demonic Beasts do not know how Array Formations function. Therefore, we have to rely on brute strength, which was unsuccessful. Perhaps, Master has a special method to enter the forbidden zone?" Old Ape carefully spoke. He did not want to make it seem like he was trying to lure Tang Yin into a trap.
Tang Yin gave Old Ape a deep glance, it was difficult to tell whether Old Ape was telling the truth or not. But it did not seem like he was, after all, if Tang Yin died, he would also perish.
"Let’s say that I successfully bypass the Array Formation, what’s in it for you? Did you forget that everything that you possess belongs to me?" Tang Yin spoke coldly.
Old Ape gritted his teeth, after a moment of silence he responded, "Not only will I help you enter the Array Formation, but I will also help you brave the dangers inside the forbidden zone. However, in exchange, I hope you can return my Beast Soul wisp once we leave the forbidden zone."
"Who said I want to enter the forbidden zone?" Tang Yin casually said.
Old Ape sighed and remained silent.
However, his face lit up after hearing Tang Yin’s next question, "Where is this forbidden zone?"
"It’s at the centre of the Crimson Tree Forest." Old Ape responded vigorously. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com
"Alright, as long as you promise to do whatever you just said, I’ll return your Beast Soul wisp." Tang Yin spoke calmly.
"Rest assured, I’ll do my best to protect you, even if it costs me my life!" Old Ape nodded enthusiastically, his freedom depended on this after all.
Xiao Fei had heard the whole conversation. She commanded the Crimson Feathered Luan to head to the centre of the Crimson Tree Forest.
"Do any powerful Demonic Beasts live near the forbidden zone?" Tang Yin asked, he did not want to be besieged by a powerful Demonic Beast whilst trying to crack the Array Formation.
Old Ape thought for a moment before replying, "There is a High-tier Rank 6 Demonic Beast that resides at the depths of the Crimson Tree Forest, but it is not too close to the forbidden zone."
Tang Yin contemplated this piece of information. ’Will it interfere with me trying to enter the forbidden zone?’ This was Tang Yin’s worry. But then he looked around.
He had a Low-tier Rank 6 Tyrant Ape King and a Mid-tier Rank 6 Crimson Feathered Luan under his control, not to mention himself and Xiao Fei. With this much power, killing a High-tier Rank 6 Demonic Beast did not seem like a stretch.
’Is it worth it?’ As Tang Yin and the rest rapidly closed in on the forbidden zone, Tang Yin decided not to kill the High-tier Rank 6 Demonic Beast.
He did not know much about the Demonic Beast. Old Ape was also injured, and the Crimson Feathered Luan was not too strong in terms of offensive power.
Upon making this decision, Tang Yin and the rest arrived at the forbidden zone.
The so-called forbidden zone was just a large valley. Its interior could not be seen due to a large amount of white mist shrouding the valley.
"The white mist must be the Array Formation." Tang Yin casually pointed out to Old Ape.
Old Ape was surprised, but he still nodded.
Tang Yin sent his divine sense into the white mist, but it bounced back.
Tang Yin was not surprised, he could tell that this was a Tier 4 Array Formation. If it did not have to ability to defend against divine sense, it would not be worthy of being a Tier 4 Array Formation
Nevertheless, since his divine sense did not work, Tang Yin utilized the Heaven Piercing Gaze, and the results were not too bad.
He could at least see through the Tier 4 Array Formation somewhat. There was not much inside the valley, there was only a lake at the centre.
Tang Yin narrowed his eyes, however, it vanished.
For a second, he had seen the figure of a person beside the lake, but as he tried to get a closer look, the white mist churned and blocked out his vision.
’Could someone have arrived before me and entered the valley?’ Tang Yin pondered.
’But they would need to get through the entire Crimson Tree Forest and avoid a few Rank 6 Demonic Beasts. Not to mention that there is a Tier 4 Array Formation here. Could I have seen an illusion?’ Tang Yin thought intensely.
’Forget it, once I enter, everything will be revealed.’ Tang Yin focused on the Tier 4 Array Formation. If he could not get through it, there would be no use in thinking about whatever was inside the valley.
Tang Yin brought out one of Tian Huang’s jade tokens. This specific jade token contained his knowledge about the different professions of the cultivation world such as Alchemists, Forgers, Formation Masters, Spirit Beats Tamers, Inscription Masters etc.
After a quick glance at the Array Formation section, Tang Yin found what he was looking for.
The Array Formation before him was a Tier 4 Mist Obstruction Formation.
This Array Formation could block out all types of living beings and prevent any prying. It was a powerful Array Formation which acted as an obstacle to all entities and provided top-notch privacy.
It did not possess any offensive abilities but that was renumerated by its defensive ability.
Anything below the Peak-stage Principle Comprehension Realm and Rank 7 Demonic Beasts could not enter the Mist Obstruction Formation. Even if they attacked forever, it would be useless as long as the Array Formation had an abundant supply of Spirit Qi.
Of course, not everything was perfect, including the Tier 4 Mist Obstruction Formation.
The Array Formation had a flaw.
If numerous beings below the Peak-stage Principle Comprehension Realm accumulated their power and attacked at the same time, they could theoretically produce an output of power equivalent to a Peak-stage Principle Comprehension Realm.
Of course, everything had to be perfect, including perfect cooperation, timing, area of penetration, specific power output etc.
Tang Yin looked around.
Old Ape was a strength-type Demonic Beast, his full-powered attack could rival Mid-tier Rank 6 Demonic Beasts.
The Crimson Feathered Luan was a Mid-tier Rank 6 Demonic Beast which specialised in speed, its offensive power was average among Mid-tier Rank 6 Demonic Beasts.
Xiao Fei was at the peak of Rank 5. If she mustered everything she had, her Everlasting Hell Flame’s power could be on par with Low-tier Rank 6 Demonic Beasts.
Then there was himself. With the numerous Martial Skills at his disposal, coupled with his physical strength, Tang Yin estimated that he could bring out Peak-stage Spirit Ascension Realm power.
Altogether, that was two Mid-tier Rank 6 power plus Low-tier Rank 6 power plus Peak-stage Spirit Ascension Realm power.
Overall, that would equate to Late-stage Principle Comprehension Realm power output.
’It should be enough.’ Tang Yin thought. However, now he was faced with another problem.
’We need to get the timing right whilst also attacking the same area. We also need perfect coordination, a single mistake will make the whole attack fail to break through the Array Formation.’ Tang Yin sighed. Under normal circumstances, this would take practice.
But he did not have time or the leisure to practice. They could only do this once, if they failed, they would be unable to enter the valley.
Tang Yin filled in Old Ape and Xiao Fei on his plan to bypass the Tier 4 Mist Obstruction Formation.
Old Ape instantly agreed, he wanted his freedom back.
Xiao Fei also agreed, however, it would be difficult to make the Crimson Feathered Luan attack with perfect timing and coordination. It would be a weak link.
Old Ape and Xiao Fei communicated with the Crimson Feathered Luan and told it the plan. According to Xiao Fei, it had agreed, but Tang Yin still felt uneasy.
So, he decided to bribe the Crimson Feathered Luan. He promised it 10% of whatever was inside the valley.
The Crimson Feathered Luan’s eyes turned red. It was going to muster its strongest attack!
Tang Yin, Old Ape and Xiao Fei also got into position to attack the Tier 4 Mist Obstruction Formation.
