Cultivating with Top Enlightenment Chapter 1110 - 484: The Mountain-Protecting Grand Array Even True Immortals Cannot Withstand (Part 2)
Previously on Cultivating with Top Enlightenment...
The Saint Ancestor intently observed the Alchemy Palace.
"The heavenly surge of golden lotus is no ordinary treasure emerging."
"Since this is the Alchemy Palace, there must be alchemy scriptures, and possibly even an Immortal Pill!"
The Sea Ancestor came to the front, also observing the surroundings.
"Immortal Pill is certainly tempting."
Wei Immortal also walked over, looking around: "But I feel something’s off."
"Now that the array restrictions have been lifted."
Ning Qi watched the several people discussing and said with a smile: "Why speculate here when we can just explore to find where the treasure really is and what it contains."
"Shall we split up?"
The Saint Ancestor regained his composure and smiled: "That would save time."
"I’ll go with the Saint Ancestor to check the Herb Storage Pavilion."
The Sea Ancestor took the lead.
Wei Immortal glanced at Lin Chen: "Lin and I are relatively more familiar with this area, so we’ll check the Testing Hall."
"Let’s listen to Brother Wei."
Lin Chen naturally had no objections.
After all, he wasn’t familiar with anyone else here.
"Then I’ll go to the Alchemy Palace to investigate."
Ning Qi looked at the great hall they had just visited.
"Alright!"
Everyone responded in unison.
"Let’s not delay any longer, let’s set off now!"
The Saint Ancestor seemed a little impatient and flew towards the Herb Storage Pavilion first.
The Sea Ancestor followed closely behind.
The others also gradually left.
Ning Qi, unhurriedly, returned to the great hall they had just come from.
Really don’t understand these people, why go far when it’s near.
As everyone left, Ning Qi was the only one left in the Alchemy Palace.
He returned to the great hall, his gaze falling on the Alchemy Furnace.
Earlier, everyone was attracted by the rich medicinal fragrance inside the hall and due to a series of changes triggered by Wei Immortal touching the restrictions, no one inspected the Alchemy Furnace closely.
At this moment, there were no barriers blocking any longer.
Ning Qi walked straight to the Alchemy Furnace, which was a bit smaller than the one in the central square that activated the arrays of the four halls.
Yet, the inscriptions on it were extremely mysterious, clearly not ordinary.
Ning Qi extended his palm, placing it on the Alchemy Furnace.
"Hoo."
Feeling it closely, there was still a warm sensation.
Ning Qi rubbed it, feeling the material of the Alchemy Furnace.
This material is impressive, capable of nurturing the Alchemy Furnace on its own.
Even if left vacant for countless ages, it still has such effects, clearly extraordinary.
He withdrew his palm, injecting hidden force.
"Swoosh."
A burst of force was injected into the Alchemy Furnace.
"Buzz..."
The Alchemy Furnace emitted a buzzing sound, starting to tremble.
"Again."
Ning Qi activated his immortal power and injected it again.
The inscriptions inside the Alchemy Furnace seemed to have been activated, starting to vibrate.
Strands of force began to become active within, even some began to counterbalance his force.
"Interesting."
Ning Qi withdrew his hand, exclaiming: "Not just a supreme treasure for alchemy, it can even attack."
"Collect!"
He hesitated no longer, casually waved his hand.
A gust of wind surged, instantly enveloping the entire Alchemy Furnace.
The Alchemy Furnace abruptly trembled, as if resisting.
"Come."
Ning Qi’s immortal power shook, the Great Dao Array Fruit transformed into an invisible net, encasing it within.
"Shoo."
The Alchemy Furnace ultimately transformed into a streak of light, continuously shrinking as it flew towards Ning Qi, finally being collected by him.
After finishing this, Ning Qi turned his gaze towards the depths of the great hall.
Previously, everyone’s attention was on the central Alchemy Furnace, and they hadn’t noticed this door.
"This is the alchemy place, then what’s the purpose of the backyard?"
Murmuring, Ning Qi walked forward.
Soon, he arrived in front of the back door, reached out his hand intending to push it open.
Just as his palm was about to touch the door, he sensed a strong force.
"Hmm?"
Ning Qi frowned.
Feeling a wave of light in front, blocking his hand.
"Interesting."
Ning Qi smiled and muttered softly: "The central array has been broken, the Four Saint Return to Spirit Array has also been lifted, why is there still an obstruction here?"
"Could it be my previous judgment was wrong? Is there some secret hidden deep within this Alchemy Palace?"
He paced back and forth, carefully examining the door.
At a glance, there was nothing unusual.
Using his divine sense to sweep over, an invisible spiritual qi fluctuation, like a veil, obscured his vision.
"Not a restriction..."
Ning Qi shook his head, smiled and said: "It’s an array!"
He suddenly raised his right hand, circulating immortal power within.
The Great Dao Array Fruit’s embryonic form began to appear behind him, lines of patterns like ripples on water.
He tentatively shot towards and waved, like ripples in water, surging forward.
"Buzz!"
This pattern struck against the invisible barrier’s color, emitting a buzzing sound.
A dazzling light screen spread out, rippling throughout the entire backyard.
"As expected, it’s an array!"
Ning Qi felt the light screen covering the entire backyard, speaking deeply: "And it turns out to be a Mountain Protection Array!"
"A backyard, a pavilion, actually using a Mountain Protection Array to guard it?"
"What’s hidden inside here?"
"The true secret of the Alchemy Palace is within this pavilion guarded by the Mountain Protection Array."
"Let me see what’s really going on."
Thinking this, Ning Qi began surging with golden immortal power.
In his eyes, a beam of golden light burst forth, merging with the Dao Pattern’s phantom behind him, transforming into countless fine webs, enveloping the miniature Mountain Protection Array once more.
"Buzz."
For a moment, the array’s light screen was triggered, beginning to resist vigorously.
Just like a water surface, with a net cast upon it.
The net began to penetrate, while the water’s resistance began to take effect, making the net not easily succeed.
The two sides remained in a stalemate, Ning Qi’s previously calm demeanor now showed a hint of anger.
Best to eat the humble pie instead of the penalty pie.
"Break for me."
This time, he operated his Immortal Demon Power.
Immortal power and magic power coexisted in his dantian.
He could freely wield them.
Normally wielding one type of power was relatively easy, but operating both would consume energy and spiritual power.
So unless necessary, he wouldn’t exhaust himself.
At this point, he was forced.
A Mountain Protection Array, acting arrogantly in front of him, a dignified Realm Lord, was intolerable.
With the operation of the Immortal Demon Power, the once golden and dazzling immortal power instantly surged with a tinge of black light.
Subsequently, gold and black fused together.
Ultimately transforming into a grayish-white Immortal Demon Power.
After employing the Immortal Demon Power, Ning Qi used no tricks.
Instead, he grabbed the light screen in front with his hands.
"Tear!"
"Zzz..."
His hands grasped the light screen, erupting a blinding brilliance.
Electric light surged, centered on his hand, flashing arcs burst forth.
As if trying to obliterate him entirely.
Unfortunately, its resistance was futile.
Ning Qi remained unmoved, allowing the electric lights to strike him, gripping the light screen fiercely, already tearing a gap in it.
"Break."
Ning Qi saw the gap, then used his other hand to grasp it too.
Both hands pulling the gap to the left and right.
"Swish!"
Just like tearing a curtain apart.
The light screen was instantly torn open, Ning Qi squeezed through the gap, diving in.
"Hoo!"
Upon squeezing in, a sensation of unprecedented suffocation was felt.
His entire body, as if crushed by innumerable great stones.
"Crack!"
His bones and flesh were continuously compressed, causing him immense pain.
"Damn, what’s going on?"
Ning Qi’s eyes glimmered, feeling the overwhelming pressure.
At that moment, he already had thoughts of retreat.
No choice, his chest cavity began to collapse, clearly under suppression.
"Cough."
The next moment, coughing violently, a mouthful of blood was spat out.
"Hoo."
Initially wanting to exit, but found his legs had no strength left, directly kneeling on the ground.
Supporting himself with his palms, preventing himself from collapsing.
What’s happening, his strength, at least capable of rivaling a True Immortal, why is he being suppressed by this array like this?
Struggling to uphold his body, he coughed out another mouthful of fresh blood.
