This is absolutely insane!
"Why hasn't it broken yet!" someone growled through gritted teeth. "I can't hold on much longer!"
Mo Zuili, at the very front, held the Phoenix Flame Spear firmly, trying her best to rotate the spear.
The rogue cultivator, about to collapse from exhaustion, felt himself being supported by a pair of hands, and a surge of rich spiritual energy flowed back into his body.
The rogue cultivator caught a glimpse of a bright red figure standing behind him out of the corner of his eye.
Zhu Hehong's voice carried a hint of madness: "Continue!"
boom!
The Phoenix Flame Spear finally spun, and Mo Zuili poured all her spiritual power into it, gripping the spear and plunging it deep into the heart of the formation.
The moment the magic array was broken, everyone felt the demonic energy around them suddenly weaken.
Exhausted of their spiritual energy, everyone collapsed to the ground, disregarding their appearance.
"Heavens! This formation is too hard to break! There are four more formations like this! Damn demons!" someone complained as they fell to the ground.
Mo Zuili was too weak to do anything but release the Phoenix Flame Spear and take out the Rejuvenation Pill.
The Yu family cultivators who rushed over found themselves lying haphazardly on the ground.
The rogue cultivator who had come with the Yu family cultivators asked his companions with delight, "Who found the core of the formation? If I had known that other members of the Yu family would come, I wouldn't have gone out to look for people. I could have stayed here and helped you break the formation."
The Yu family cultivators also wanted to know who it was, but after looking around, they didn't see a single member of the Yu family.
Upon hearing this, everyone turned their attention to the woman in the red robe with the unusual hairstyle in the center, and the Yu family cultivators also turned their gaze to her.
Just then, Mo Zuili met his indifferent gaze.
"Young Master of the Mo Clan?" The Yu Clan cultivator asked somewhat uncertainly, "You found the core of the formation?"
Mo Zuili had no intention of explaining further. Since breaking through to the Golden Core stage, this body was as if its Ren and Du meridians had been opened. With its divine sense spreading out and supplemented by spiritual power, it could capture even the slightest fluctuations of spiritual power in the magic array.
Thinking back to how she was originally a once-in-a-century genius, genius was just the threshold to seeing her.
Mo Zuili felt that it was normal for her to be so powerful now.
So Mo Zuili nodded, acknowledging that he was the young master of the Mo family and that he had found the core of the formation.
Seeing the Yu family cultivators stunned, Mo Zuili didn't bother to think about why and turned to Zhu Hehong to ask, "Where is the nearest magic array? We should go there."
The Yu family cultivator recovered his senses, cleared his throat, and reminded them, "I just came from the Phoenix Clan's Holy... uh."
It is thought that Mo Zuili, in addition to being the young master of the Mo family of the human race, is also vying with Huang Tianyao for the title of Holy Maiden of the Phoenix Clan.
The Yu family cultivator quickly changed his words, saying, "I came from Miss Huang Tianyao's side. They just broke a magic array, which is located in the southwest direction."
Since Huang Yu spread the news, in order to survive in the Phoenix Ruins and stop the demons' conspiracy, the previously at odds factions have gritted their teeth and cooperated. Besides Mo Zuili's group, Huang Tianyao's side should also be taking action.
Mo Zuili nodded to indicate that she understood, and then looked at Zhu Hehong.
Zhu Hehong pondered for a moment, then pointed to the southeast.
Without the slightest hesitation, Mo Zuili rose and pulled the Phoenix Flame Spear from the ground. She still had much to do: consolidate her cultivation, inherit the Demon King's power, find Qi Shuyan, and go homeā¦
We absolutely cannot die at the Phoenix Ruins!
Just as Mo Zuili was about to call everyone to head to the next place, she saw the gaze of the Yu family cultivators suddenly fall on her.
Mo Zuili sensed something was wrong and turned to look.
Sure enough, their gazes were fixed on Shen Ling! With the magic array destroyed, the demonic energy weakened, making Shen Ling's identity easier to detect!
Mo Zuili took two steps forward without making a sound, put his arm around Zhu Hehong's shoulder, and used the opportunity to shield Shen Ling behind him: "Let's go, it's time to go to the next place."
Zhu Hehong was shocked: "Now?!"
Just now, Mo Zuili held nothing back, taking the lead and charging ahead to break through the formation.
He recovered in less than half a moment and continued walking!
Looking at Mo Zuili's back, Zhu Hehong noticed that the man's hand holding the Phoenix Flame Spear was still trembling!
Zhu Hehong hesitated, wanting to say something but stopping herself; it was too crazy.
Turning her head, she saw Shen Ling panting heavily. Zhu Hehong closed her eyes and took a deep breath. How could it be normal for someone to be able to play with demons and even have them willingly help stop the demon realm's conspiracy!
The Yu family cultivator seemed about to say something, but was ruthlessly interrupted by Mo Zuili. Mo Yongning, receiving a look from Mo Zuili, quickly organized the group. Taking advantage of the situation, Mo Zuili led Shen Ling to the back of the group.
"Elder Tan." The Yi family's law envoy appeared beside Elder Tan like a ghost and asked softly, "Is the demon accompanying Miss Mo acquainted with her?"
Old Tan remained calm and nonchalant, deftly deflecting the question: "That's a matter concerning the young master; we know little about it. What we saw in the water mirror was that the two demons the young master encountered were helping us destroy the magic array."
It's possible that this is an extraordinary person whom the young master has trained and befriended in the past, or someone who, through some means, disguised themselves as a demon, infiltrated the demon realm, discovered the conspiracy, and risked coming in to stop it.
The Yi family's law magistrate asked him softly beside him, but Elder Tan's voice was not concealed at all, so loud that the elders who were discussing with the demons in the distance could hear it clearly.
The Yi family's legal envoy remained silent for a moment, then nodded.
Everyone else pretended not to hear and remained silent.
The most important thing right now is to open the ruins and rescue the people. As for why the young master of the Mo family knows the demons, that can be discussed later. At least for now, it seems that these two demons are helping us.
Seeing the Yi family's law envoy leave, Elder Tan breathed a sigh of relief and turned his gaze to Mo Zuili, who was organizing cultivators to break the formation in the water mirror.
The demons that Mo Zuili encountered were known to Elder Tan.
She looks exactly like the senior brother the young master brought home before, but that senior brother didn't have any demonic energy.
Although she didn't know about the young master's affair with her senior brother, she absolutely couldn't let others use this as an excuse to smear the young master.
In the Phoenix Ruins.
Mo Zuili sheathed the Phoenix Flame Spear and gasped for breath.
Knowing that the core of the demonic energy was a magic array, and that destruction of it offered a chance of survival, no one held back. To survive, everyone fought with all their might, revealing their trump cards. Furthermore, Zhu Hehong knew the approximate locations of the five magic arrays, and the people in the ruins were extremely efficient, destroying four arrays in the past two days.
She participated in three of them; in one, she was responsible for finding the core of the formation and working together to destroy it; in the other two, she also contributed greatly.
Mo Yongning and Zhu Hehong supported Mo Zuili from both sides. After she recovered, Mo Zuili broke free.
Zhu Hehong stood beside Mo Zuili, smiling broadly as she gave him a thumbs-up, her tone excited and devoid of any derogatory meaning: "Crazy!"
Mo Zuili raised an eyebrow and gave a weak smile.
Even Zhu Hehong, the madman in the novel who stayed up all night to guard the city for Shen Ling for three days, would give a thumbs up and call himself a madman when he saw me.
"Likewise," Mo Zuili said modestly, swallowing a Rejuvenation Pill while leaning on the Phoenix Flame Spear.
Seeing the strange light in Mo Zuili's eyes, Mo Yongning hesitated for a long time before advising, "Young Master, why don't you rest for a while?"
Mo Zuili shook her head and grinned, "Let's go to the last place and finish it as soon as possible!"
When Mo Zuili destroyed the second magic array, she realized that the weakening of demonic energy after the magic array was destroyed was only temporary, lasting only one or two hours, after which the demonic energy quickly surged back.
She asked Zhu Hehong, but Zhu Hehong wasn't quite sure either. The others could only guess that the five magic arrays were interconnected and that they all had to be destroyed in order to completely sever the passage and prevent the demonic energy from regenerating.
The Yu family cultivators were relatively close to Mo Zuili and the others, and upon hearing this, their vision blurred.
She had never wished so much that she could actually fall into a coma.
She admitted that when she first saw Mo Zuili, she did have doubts about the strength of Mo Zuili, the young master of the Mo family.
After all, the reputation of the young master of the Mo family as a good-for-nothing had spread throughout the cultivation world a few years ago.
Now, she admits that Mo Zuili is powerful, incredibly powerful! If anyone dares to call Mo Zuili trash again, she'll rush over and beat them to a pulp.
After traveling for two days without sleep, exhausting his spiritual energy three times, and even finding the core of the initial magic array himself, Mo Zuili was the one who discovered it.
"Go!" Mo Zuili told Zhu Hehong to step forward and pull the Yu family cultivator who had collapsed to the ground.
Others can rest before coming over, but this person can't.
Mo Zuili wasn't slow to realize that the number of cultivators in the ruins who could probe the core of the formation could be counted on one hand.
If you don't overdraw your spiritual power and spiritual consciousness too much, wouldn't this thing be easy to use?
"I want to rest..."
Looking at the young girl slumped on his shoulder, Zhu Hehong felt a strange sense of balance.
See? This is the true strength of a natural prodigy.
Mo Zuili led Shen Ling at the forefront, and upon hearing this, he smiled disdainfully: "Rest? Why sleep so much in life? You'll have plenty of time to sleep after death."
Hearing these words in this setting felt extremely strange to Shen Ling.
The Yu family cultivator straightened his back silently, took a deep breath, and said, "I was just saying. We won't die, haha..."
The group arrived at the last magic array first, where enemies met again. Mo Zuili immediately saw Huang Tianyao.
Huang Tianyao stood beside the cultivator who was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, searching for the core of the formation.
Then he heard Huang Yu calling his name. After everyone landed, Huang Tianyao turned around and looked at Mo Zuili from a distance.
Mo Zuili would never dare to open her heart to Huang Tianyao and cooperate.
The biggest concession she could make was not to betray him at such a crucial moment.
When their eyes met, Mo Zuili saw the same intention in Huang Tianyao's eyes.
Shangguan Fu'er stood beside Huang Tianyao, her eyes filled with hostility as she looked at Mo Zuili, but she ultimately held back and turned her head away, ignoring Mo Zuili and the others.
Most of the cultivators here are meditating and conserving their energy, waiting to find the core of the formation so they can unleash their full power in peak condition.
After exchanging words with Huang Yu and confirming that there were no other unexpected events, Mo Zuili sat down to recover her spiritual energy, her mind still frantically pondering the various scenarios that would occur after the last magic array was destroyed.
Either the small world trial continues, in which case I must seize the initiative and enter the small world again before Huang Tianyao!
Either the magic array is destroyed or the ruins are opened, in which case the ownership of the Demon King's inherited power will need to be planned in the long term.
Moreover, once they leave the ruins, the two demons, Shen Ling and Shen Qingxing, will be discovered.
So many things, it's giving me a real headache.
As Mo Zuili pondered, she suddenly heard a commotion from the crowd. Opening her eyes, she saw Huang Geng confronting a group of demons.
Mo Zuili frowned, still unable to make sense of the situation, when she heard someone shout shrilly from the center of the commotion: "A half-blood, we will never acknowledge him as a saintess! It would be best if he were dead!"
Huang Tianyao also heard the sound, frowned and looked at the source of the sound with displeasure, gesturing to the black-clad man standing to the side to stop it.
At this critical juncture, we must not allow internal strife to erupt!
At that very moment, the array cultivator responsible for searching the array core suddenly opened his eyes, stood up abruptly, reached down to unfasten the array plate from his waist, slammed it into the ground, and shouted, "It's right there! Make your move!"
