In the cultivation world where the highest cultivation level is currently only at the Nascent Soul stage, if cultivators were to break through this defense, it would probably take the combined power of the entire cultivation world a year or two to destroy it.

Of course, no matter how strong these defenses are, they can't possibly be unable to deal with the five divine beasts.

That attack just now was merely a test of the defense's strength; they hadn't used their full power.

The first layer of defense was easily broken through by the four of them working together.

The four speculated that there should be a total of seven layers of protection around the Yin-Yang Twin Flowers.

Upon reaching the second level, a protective shield appeared on its own without Qi Yan and the others needing to attack.

Looking at the translucent protective shield filled with white fluff, everyone felt an overwhelming sense of familiarity.

"Isn't this the barrier surrounding those formations from before?" someone said.

For a moment, it seemed as if everyone had been pulled back to the time when the barrier was torn apart.

The intense pain caused by the white, fluffy substances that flowed against their spiritual energy seemed to resurface in their minds.

The most difficult thing to deal with in this barrier is those white, fluffy substances.

"The previous barriers were strong because the formations drew spiritual energy to provide them with a continuous source of power. This barrier shouldn't be that difficult to deal with."

Shen Sangruo's complexion wasn't exactly pleasant, but wasn't there an energy entity right in front of her?

If she could think of it, then those evil cultivators could naturally think of it too.

Qing Shu injected a small wisp of spiritual power into the barrier, and immediately felt a needle-like stinging pain in her fingertips.

His expression then turned serious, and he shook his head, saying, "Unfortunately, those bastards connected this barrier with the Yin-Yang Twin Flowers."

"The Yin-Yang Twin Flowers will provide the barrier with even more powerful energy."

Moreover, she could sense that this barrier was more sophisticated than the arrays surrounding those arrays, and the damage caused by those white, fluffy substances was also greater.

The first layer of defense was just a small appetizer; how could those evil cultivators only have this much?

They only defend and don't attack, which is unlike the style of those evil cultivators. They must be trying to take advantage of the situation and do everything they can to bite back at them.

The real highlight begins on the second floor.

"Could all the defenses behind us be like this kind of barrier?" Fang Yu's expression turned strange.

"No, to be precise, it should be a barrier that is more insidious than the last," Shen Sangruo said in a deep voice.

The defenses will only become more ferocious as the game progresses.

With the Yin-Yang Twin Flowers as the energy source, it is impossible to destroy this barrier according to its rules.

The only option is violent destruction.

"Never mind, let's just do it." Qi Yan curled his lip, a hint of ferocity appearing in his eyes.

Xuan Ye took a small step forward and said softly, "Let me go first... I'm a little better than you guys..."

Standing in front of so many people, Xuan Ye's social anxiety kicked in again.

The only way he could relieve his tension was to keep thinking about how he was going to crush those evil cultivators.

Xuan Ye may look like just a child, but in reality, he is the strongest of the four in terms of combat power.

With great power comes great responsibility, and it is his duty to step forward in times like these.

"Let me...let me test the strength of this barrier first..."

Xuan Ye condensed a ball of brown spiritual energy in his hand, and the look in his eyes was replaced by a sharp edge.

The next moment, the attack in his hand was suddenly swung out, and the sound of it hitting the barrier was deafening!

As everyone could see, the moment Xuan Ye's spiritual power touched the barrier, the white, fibrous material on the barrier flowed rapidly, gathered in one place, and entered his body along with his spiritual power.

Xuan Ye's small face suddenly turned pale, but he gritted his teeth and refused to show the slightest pain.

Under his attack, tiny cracks actually appeared on the barrier.

As expected, they are the strongest among the Five Divine Beasts!

"It looks promising!" Bai Yi shouted.

Seeing this, they immediately joined the attack, focusing all their efforts on the barrier.

The stronger the attack, the stronger the backlash from the white flocculent substance.

Furthermore, once it reaches a certain point, the damage becomes irreversible.

Even though the five divine beasts have stronger physical attributes, they can only withstand a little more damage than ordinary cultivators. Beyond that limit, they will be severely affected.

"help!"

Shen Sangruo quickly gathered her spiritual power, and everyone worked together.

We cannot let the burden of the cultivation world fall entirely on Qi Yan and his group.

Everyone present attacked the barrier together. The white, fluffy things, like wolves eyeing meat, were so excited that their eyes gleamed green as they burrowed into their bodies.

If the backlash from the white flocculent material in the barrier was only 40% of their attack power before, then the white flocculent material in the barrier now has reached 60%.

For every 100 damage they inflict on the barrier, 60 will be returned to them through the white, fluffy substance.

With the Yin-Yang Twin Flowers providing energy to the barrier, all attacks were concentrated on one point. After a quarter of an hour, only a small opening the size of a palm was created.

Fifteen minutes is the limit that most people can endure.

But this tiny loophole was enough for Gu Ci Zhenjun and Shen Sangruo.

Just like an egg, it is indestructible before it breaks.

If even the slightest damage occurs, its overall strength will crumble, and its defensive capabilities will be greatly reduced.

The vulnerability created by everyone working together is different from the crack that was torn in the barrier back then.

This vulnerability truly pierced through the barrier, damaging a portion of it. However, the gap, though torn open, could be repaired without causing any damage to the barrier itself.

Together with other cultivators skilled in barrier techniques, the two took advantage of this loophole to find the key to the barrier and completely destroyed it.

By the time the second layer of the barrier was destroyed, everyone was exhausted, and some had even collapsed to the ground.

The little strength he had left was just enough to curse the heretical cultivators.

"Damn it! I'll f*** you!"

This is only the second floor; there are still five more floors to go. Just thinking about it makes one feel that the future is bleak.

Could it be that the Yin-Yang Twin Flowers are right in front of them, yet they have no way to destroy them?

But no one said they would give up; they all swallowed a handful of pills and prepared for the next round of attacks.

After half a day of recovery, the group began to work on the barrier on the third level.

Before taking action, Qing Shu still used a wisp of spiritual power to probe the barrier.

"how?"

She paused for a moment before speaking, "...the backlash from that white, fluffy substance has already caused 100% damage."

It increased by forty percent in one go!

The difficulty of breaking the barrier has increased dramatically!

Upon hearing this, the expressions on everyone's faces turned extremely grim.

Before they could react, another disturbance came from the barrier.

Second update! Thank you all for your support! *tweets*
