At this moment, he also wants to know how far his Dao Practice has progressed.
Yet the first three passes couldn’t force out his potential at all.
He then steps into the fourth pass.
It is still a simple stone tower.
But this time Zhang Jian is slightly surprised.
In the depths of the void, no imprint of any powerful being evolved; instead, a grand array emerged at the front, deploying Yin and Yang, and Four Symbols, containing infinite marvelous powers of the Four Symbols within.
"Is this the time to break the array?"
Zhang Jian pondered silently.
Sure enough, moments later, words appeared above the void.
This time he faces a Innate Yin Yang Four Symbols Array, tasked with breaking the confinement of this Innate Array within a hundred years.
This is an Innate Array, containing many Innate Profound mysteries, with great power, capable of both offense and defense.
Its power is enough to trap and kill those at the Taiyi Great Perfection Level.
Looking at this scene, Zhang Jian didn’t feel pressured.
He is skilled in Heaven and Earth Runes and has profound insights into arrays.
Moreover, recently in the Fire Cloud Grotto Heaven, he acquired the Innate Eight Trigrams from Celestial Emperor Fu Xi, a tool designed for breaking arrays.
Not to mention, he’s also adept at River Map Divination.
...
Meanwhile, the Water Official Emperor and Water Virtue Star Monarch were not slow either, though they entered after others, they arrived first, also stepping into the fourth pass.
Though slightly different, the fourth pass revealed an Innate Array within.
The two Immortal Gods each wielded Supreme Treasures, respectively suppressing parts of the array, swiftly finding its weak spots, then breaking it.
This move was effortless and graceful, yet to many Immortal Gods within the Pure Yang Immortal Sect’s hall it seemed immensely terrifying.
The array’s changes were too plentiful for their Primordial Spirit calculations, let alone breaking it.
"These Celestial Emperors are so powerful..."
Many Taiyi Great Powers within the Pure Yang Immortal Sect were secretly shaken.
As Immortal Gods of the Taiqing Celestial Lineage, they carry a pride, confident that few opponents of equal rank could rival them.
Seeing such a scene today inevitably caused some disturbance in their Dao Hearts.
Yuan Yang Daoist remained expressionless, having witnessed such scenes often lately.
Among cultivators, each mountain is higher than the last.
...
Meanwhile, Zhang Jian was also breaking the array speedily, choosing not to use any Magical Treasure, but instead following the array’s veins, gradually locating its core nodes, employing Forbidden Techniques to crack the Innate Array, thereby causing its power to become unbalanced and eventually broken.
This superb array-breaking method was simple and to the point, enlightening many Immortals.
Even Daoist Monarch Chunyang took notice.
Immortal Gods skilled in array creation and breaking are a unique type of talent, no different from Immortal Gods skilled in Alchemy and Artifact Refining; all are in demand.
The Donghua Realm seeks to ascend dimensions and requires many talents like these for support.
Daoist Monarch Chunyang, however, formed new ideas, deciding to further test Zhang Jian in this field.
He pondered, covertly manipulating a portion of the changes within the three Dao Realms.
King Yu sensed something but remained discreet, continuing to observe.
The Three Emperors and Five Elders Assembly and the Taiqing Celestial Lineage share no friction, Daoist Monarch Chunyang wouldn’t likely trouble our Tongshan Daoist Lineage.
...
Before the fifth stone tower, Zhang Jian’s expression was slightly solemn; after a moment, he took a step inside.
Inside the stone tower, a grand array manifested before Zhang Jian’s eyes.
Numerous Heaven and Earth mysteries revealed themselves, faintly carrying a force returning to Primordial Chaos within, leaving his eyes a bit helpless.
Even at a glance, the killing potential of this array surpassed the fourth pass several times over.
His Innate Primordial Spirit felt a strong chill.
"No wonder other Immortal Gods couldn’t pass the nine passes!"
He thought secretly, though feeling great risk, he had some confidence.
He took steps inside.
Within the Pure Yang Immortal Hall, at this moment, many Daoist Monarchs gazed at the strange grand array emerging, eyes instantly filled with some astonishment.
They already recognized the origin of this grand array.
Yet, according to the trial Forbidden Technique set by Daoist Monarch Chunyang and the other Monarchs, this shouldn’t appear.
Not because it’s too weak.
But because it’s too strong!
This is the renowned Ancient Killing Array.
"Is this the Duality Dust Array?"
King Yu questioned aloud, yet with a certain tone.
The Daoist Monarch Chang Mei below looked pensive, glancing at Daoist Monarch Chunyang, who just then looked over, prompting a smile.
"Indeed, it is the Duality Dust Array!"
Within the hall, many Immortals murmured among themselves.
The Duality Dust Array is a famous Immortal Array of the Taiqing Celestial Lineage, personally imparted by Laojun, the former Mountain-Suppression Array of the Daoist Monarch Chang Mei’s lineage, which exterminated countless powerful demons.
This array can transform dust into Primordial Chaos, Primordial Chaos into Yin and Yang, Yin and Yang into myriad beings, the cycles were indeed immensely frightening.
Daoist Monarch Chunyang noticed King Yu’s change of expression and spoke.
"Though powerful, it lacks the Divine Banner to oversee the array, and no Supreme Treasure to suppress the array’s heart; its power won’t be overly strong!"
"It is suitable for a trial!"
King Yu pondered slightly, nodding lightly in agreement with Daoist Monarch Chunyang’s contention.
Though this is a renowned array of the Taiqing Celestial Lineage, he doesn’t believe it could stop Zhang Jian.
However, this killing array’s appearance at the fifth pass did indeed seem somewhat excessive in difficulty.
