Chapter 869: Breaking the Array
For Su Yu, finding the formation core was not an easy task. Fortunately, he had some knowledge of various things. Although he was not an expert in formations, he still knew a few things. After persevering for nearly an hour, he finally found the formation core and broke the array in time.
However, when the array was broken, Su Yu suffered some internal injuries and suddenly spat out several mouthfuls of bright red blood.
Han Jing quickly grabbed his wrist and used her Water Ability to heal his injuries. Although she had expended a lot of energy, she could still sustain it.
Su Yu held her hand instead, forcing her to withdraw her ability. Then he took out two medicine pills and popped them into his mouth, shaking his head at Han Jing to indicate he was fine and not to waste her energy.
For them, this was only just the beginning.
To set up such an exquisite array in such a space, the ability must far surpass theirs. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have struggled so much.
What they might encounter next was the real challenge.
The scene they were in now was finally a real one, surprisingly different from the bug-ridden, dim, oppressive scene when they first arrived. Now, the place was an ordinary garden.
A large garden with a clear stream in the distance, indeed resembling one of the scenes they had encountered in the Killing Array. The difference now was that they could not only see the garden but also, aside from the distant stream, a manor even further away.
From this distance, it didn’t seem too large, but with the lush flowers and quiet streams, it looked like a perfect place for seclusion.
Lianwu said coolly, "Most of these plants are poisonous, and some are medicinal."
Having spent millennia in the Hanwu Forest, the place most abundant in poisonous plants and herbs, he could instinctively tell if the plants in this garden were poisonous.
Of course, he didn’t know them or their uses.
Su Yu looked around and stared at the house for a moment before saying, "Don’t move yet. This garden is also arranged according to the Five Elements Formation. If we rush in, we’ll be trapped again."
Han Jing’s eyes almost popped out: "Is it really necessary to be so..."
She always thought her Prayer Pavilion, with the Ghost Forest arranged by her master’s help and the Mermaid Array left by Ting Luo surrounding it, was virtually impregnable. But now, she realized this was child’s play compared to what was here.
She now really wanted to know what kind of abnormal old person the owner of this place was.
More ferocious than her eccentric master...
At this moment, a wholly black, seemingly proud black cat sauntered elegantly to a spot about four or five meters away from them.
If it wasn’t for Xiao Xue’s surprised "Oh my!", they wouldn’t have noticed when the creature appeared.
The black cat was ink-black all over, with silver eyes and a blood-red cinnabar mark in the center of its forehead, conspicuously striking even against the black.
As they were pondering whether this black cat was the spirit pet of this place’s owner, the black cat spoke.
