"Oh? Someone's coming?"
The instant Primordial Chaos Daolord and Fire Cloud Divine Lord stepped into the energy jets, Godly Monarch River of Forgetfulness sensed their entry.
In fact, from the moment the Divine Lords arrived until they left three Divine Lords behind to watch Yi Yun, Godly Monarch River of Forgetfulness was fully aware of their presence.
He naturally knew what their goal was. It was obvious that the Divine Lord walking in front had a grudge with Yi Yun. With all the killing intent the Divine Lord effused, it was clear that he was eager to rip Yi Yun to pieces.
And at that moment, Yi Yun was sitting cross-legged on a 10000 Demon Wheel of Existence. Beside him burned the Azure Lamp of Time. His eyes were closed tightly as demonic auras lingered around him. Nebulous Primordial Chaos was constantly being extracted from the wall and absorbed into Yi Yun's body.
Regarding Yi Yun's absorption of the nebulous Primordial Chaos, Godly Monarch River of Forgetfulness had gone from initial shock to being numb towards it.
He had watched Yi Yun from the very beginning. Immersed in the Azure Lamp of Time's power, Yi Yun experienced the flow of time at an accelerated pace from the external world with a ratio of tens to one.
Although four months had passed outside, Yi Yun had actually experienced ten years because of the Azure Lamp of Time.
It was impossible to absorb the nebulous Primordial Chaos for an entire ten years, but Yi Yun would spend four to five months of each year absorbing the nebulous Primordial Chaos. The rest of the time was spent refining and absorbing it as his own, as well as cultivating the cultivation technique inside the Chaos jade slip.
The speed at which he absorbed the nebulous Primordial Chaos left Godly Monarch River of Forgetfulness incredulous.
Godly Monarch River of Forgetfulness was very curious at how long Yi Yun could cultivate in his present condition.
In fact, the Chaos Gem mineral vein was the energy source of the world seal; however, he was not worried that the mineral vein would be drained empty. The nebulous Primordial Chaos inside the mineral vein had been accumulating since the birth of the universe they were in. No matter how much Yi Yun absorbed, he would not be able to perturb the mineral vein consequentially. Furthermore, the mineral vein was the one injecting the nebulous Primordial Chaos to Yi Yun. As time passed, the nebulous Primordial Chaos inside the mineral vein would also automatically recover.
Even with two intruders coming, Godly Monarch River of Forgetfulness did not wake Yi Yun up. He could sense that Yi Yun was on the verge of reaching a critical stage of his cultivation. Waking him up hastily would only disrupt his cultivation.
"This isn't a place where you can come and go as you wish," said Godly Monarch River of Forgetfulness slowly and casually.
With him saying that, a faint beam of light flashed out of the wall. A projection of light formed into a swimming dragon as it noiselessly swam out of the hill.
Primordial Chaos Daolord was advancing when, slowly, he felt something was amiss.
He had been filled with killing intent for Yi Yun, but now that he had calmed down, he instantly noticed a problem.
He had already been walking for five minutes. No matter how slow his walking speed was, he should have closed the gap and reached the hill. However, he sensed that the distance between him and the hill had not changed at all.
That wasn't right. There must be a problem here.
Primordial Chaos Daolord came to a stop as his brows knitted. He carefully observed his surroundings.
At that moment, Primordial Chaos Daolord suddenly sensed an immense force rush at him. It struck him straight in the face. The force was very sudden, and he had no idea where it came from. He had no time to parry it at all.
"No good!" Dark light instantly flashed across Primordial Chaos Daolord's body and a Yuan Qi barrier was raised. He could not help but hastily take more than ten steps back.
"What? Primordial Chaos, you were in such a rush just now. Now that you encounter an array formation, you retreat?" Fire Cloud Divine Lord said coldly. Primordial Chaos Daolord's retreat had returned him to Fire Cloud Divine Lord's side.
Primordial Chaos Daolord did not say a word as he stared coldly at the area in front of him.
That previous encounter made him feel that the place did not welcome him. It was like he had been slapped for being the one walking in front.
Fire Cloud Divine Lord narrowed his eyes as well. Although he was mocking Primordial Chaos Daolord, his expression was nasty as well. They were here to snatch treasures, so any problems that arose needed their cooperation to be resolved.
At that moment, Fire Cloud Divine Lord looked back. There was a vast desert behind him. Where were Sacred Horizon Divine Lord and company?
"Primordial Chaos, we have likely entered an array formation. You did not notice it despite taking the lead?" said Fire Cloud Divine Lord.
"I'm afraid we fell for a trap the moment we entered. If you have the spirit to spew off your sarcastic comments, why don't you use it crack the array formation?" said Primordial Chaos Daolord coldly.
However, Fire Cloud Divine Lord remained silent. If the array had silently trapped the both of them—two Divine Lords—it could not be Yi Yun's work. However, it also did not feel like a natural array formation that was void of any human intervention.
Perhaps, it was an array formation… left behind from ancient times!
This thought seemed ridiculous. This universe appeared to have been sealed since its birth, as if no one had stepped in here before them.
But perhaps there was a mistake in such an assumption. How could such an ancient array formation be so easily cracked?
Now that they were trapped by the array formation, they could neither proceed nor retreat.
At that moment, Primordial Chaos Daolord and Fire Cloud Divine Lord felt their bodies turn heavy. They felt like a mountain had descended from the heavens, pressing down on them.
Previously, they could only take slow footsteps, but now just taking one step forward was a plodding impossibility. They had to release their Yuan Qi protective barriers to withstand the crushing repression.
"The Primordial Chaos laws here have strengthened, and they're constantly being enhanced. If this goes on, our Yuan Qi will be rapidly depleted even with the Chaos Gem armor. Once we are left enervated, we will be pulverized. And Sacred Horizon and the rest will not even know what happened," said Primordial Chaos Daolord coldly.
"Help me withstand the Primordial Chaos laws, I'll try to crack the array!"
Fire Cloud Divine Lord knew that it was not the time to clash with Primordial Chaos Daolord. His insights into the Primordial Chaos laws were inferior to Primordial Chaos Daolord's. If the world literally crashed down on them, he would be the first to die. He was not done with life yet.
Furthermore, Fire Cloud Divine Lord was not adept at array formations either. Primordial Chaos Daolord was a top genius to begin with. He was someone with the greatest potential to become Godly Monarch. He had high attainments in array formations, so Fire Cloud Divine Lord could only listen to him.
"Primordial Chaos, you have to be quick!"
After Fire Cloud Divine Lord said that, he conjured a burning flame over his body. Powerful fire-elemental laws forcefully pushed back the Primordial Chaos laws around him, opening up a tiny space for Primordial Chaos Daolord.
At the same time, Primordial Chaos Daolord began waving his hands. A red shadow suddenly flew out of his fingers and spread out towards the array. The shadow seemed to be formed of tiny beasts. The moment they landed, they immediately bore through the ground.
"Array, arise!" Primordial Chaos Daolord's eyes focused suddenly, and immediately, countless red shadows transformed into thousands of red threads. With him in the middle, he had completely covered the area with what looked like a spiderweb.
Primordial Chaos Daolord had suddenly set up another massive array within the ancient array. He wanted to crack the array with another array!
"No matter who set up this array formation, or how brilliant his cultivation level was in the past, time is a heartless master. With so much time having passed, how can I, Primordial Chaos, not be able to dispose of this dead array?"
