However, the original underground lake had long been filled in by stalactites and other debris scattered by explosions. The White Jade Sacrificial Altar, along with the headless corpse, had also turned into dust under the explosion of the
Golden Pearl.
Chen Mobai flew around, confirming several signs of battle, and his expression
became grave.
What had happened?
Could it be that Daoist Fei Ming had died, yet the Underworld Array was still
active?
Was he still within the range of this formation?
Or was it possible…Daoist Fei Ming wasn’t dead!?
Or else, perhaps that Silver Armored Corpse who pursued Shan Hongyi could manipulate the Underworld Array as well?
Chen Mobai pondered all the possibilities, cross-legged on the Red Misty Cloud Silk, pulling out an intermediate-grade Spirit Stone to replenish his exhausted spiritual power.
In the situation where a fight might break out again, he needed to maintain his
peak condition.
Half a day later, he opened his eyes, operating the Void Spirit Eye.
This Art of Spiritual Eyes, touted as the most comprehensive among immortal sects, was something Chen Mobai, with relentless cultivation for half a year using Clear Eyesight Bamboo Spirit Dew, had already mastered.
Now exerting its full power, he immediately saw residual traces of differently colored Spiritual Power in the air.
He compared them to his memories, first identifying the the most vibrant red glow. freeweɓnovel.cøm
That was Shan Hongyi’s!
Among the five people from the Divine Wood Sect, only he was at the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment, thus, without concealing, the residual traces of Spiritual Power left behind would naturally be the most noticeable.
Chen Mobai instantly followed in the direction that he disappeared.
However, halfway through, he found that the traces of Spiritual Power abruptly vanished.
He immediately recalled the scene where Lady Guo, who had originally escaped, was teleported back by Daoist Fei Ming. It must have been the Underworld Array that teleported Shan Hongyi to another place in the Lonely
Spirit Ridge.
However, such a Large Formation with the potential to teleport at any time would surely have rigorous activation conditions.
Chen Mobai recalled the knowledge about array techniques he had learned and quickly figured out the key point.
The Teleportation Array required a tremendous amount of Spiritual Energy to activate.
He had once used the Teleportation Array in the Southstream Market to reach Yun Meng Ze, which not only drained the Spiritual Energy from the Market’s earth veins but also required Spirit Stones as an energy source during activation.
The Array Plate for the Underworld Array must be in a place with the most abundant Spiritual Energy.
Either at the core of the earth veins, or a place stacked with numerous Spirit
Stones.
Chen Mobai revoked the Void Spirit Eye and put on his gold-rimmed glasses with newly replaced lenses.
Although this Magic Artifact was fragile, its functionality was reliable.
After expanding the range to its maximum, Chen Mobai flew towards the place where the Spiritual Energy Value flared up the most.
With a bang!
He punched through a mountain wall and entered a cave. Seeing the scene before him, he couldn’t help but be slightly taken aback.
He saw Bi Yiyuan with his eyes wide open, a large hole in his chest, heart entirely gouged out, already dead.
However, the ground beneath his corpse did not have a single trace of blood. With a single glance, Chen Mobai knew the reason, it was because not a drop of blood, from head to toe, remained in his body.
Was it done by that Silver Armored Corpse?!
Speculating inwardly, Chen Mobai gently closed Bi Yiyuan’s eyes. In such a dangerous place, he dare not travel with a corpse.
Furthermore, the space in his storage pouch was limited, so this was the only help he could offer.
Surveying the surrounding battle traces, Chen Mobai found a Wolf Fang Club with only its iron handle remaining, and armor that had been cut through.
Touching the cut on the armor plate, smooth as jade, he immediately thought of that Gold Jade Axe.
This Magic Artifact was probably not inferior to his own Flying Sparrow Hairpin. It’s a pity that Lady Guo was not lucky. It was not known where this Artifact came from, but it tragically fell on this Lonely Spirit Ridge.
Chen Mobai searched around but didn’t find anything like a storage bag, so he didn’t waste any more time.

He pursued the location where the spiritual energy fluctuations were the most intense once again.
He was getting closer and closer.
He could even faintly hear the explosive sound of flames roaring.
After the Divine Wood Sword flew out and cut open a mountainside, Chen Mobai rushed into another large underground lava cave.
What came into view was Shan Hongyi, who was casting the Heavenly Wood Divine Light Formation.
One look revealed that this Cultivator who was a foundation establishment elder of the Divine Wood Sect, had one side of his face green and the other red, the spiritual powers of wood and fire were continuously revolving inside his body. When they clashed with each other, they transformed into a vast and boundless “Heavenly Wood Spirit Light” and “Red Flame Sword Qi”.
And at his oblique sides, two Red-sun Spirit Trees rose from the ground, which were Yan Jinye and Mei Jingjun.
The three of them opened their hands, using their divine sense and spiritual power with all their might, manipulated the three Heavenly Wood Spirit Lights to merge into a huge ball of light, trapping the Silver Armored Corpse inside.
The three foundation establishment cultivators from the Divine Wood Sect had jointly cast the Heavenly Wood Divine Light Formation, setting up a formation within the Underworld Array of the Netherworld Mansion, suppressing the flow of the spiritual energy of the Earth Veins in the Lonely Spirit Ridge. They used this method to demonstrate and shield the power of the Underworld
Array.
■’Brother Chen arrived just in time. We four can join hands to refine it.” In the center of the three was the Silver Armored Corpse of the Flying Nether Daoist.
He was holding a gold jade axe and continually assaulted the cage formed by the three Heavenly Wood Spirit Lights, but with Shan Hongyi using fire attribute Red Flame Sword Qi to resist from the front, he maintained a stalemate.
Without a doubt, the arrival of Chen Mobai made the faces of the three from the Divine Wood Sect light up with joy.
On seeing Chen Mobai burst in, the Silver Armored Corpse’s face also dramatically changed.
Immediately afterward, as if he had made some decision, without any hesitation, he directly spat out a silver pearl.
He actually imitated the Flying Nether Daoist and self-detonated his Corpse Pearl.
The three from the Divine Wood Sect didn’t expect this, and were immediately severely injured. A green shield in Shan Hongyi’s hand cracked open, his face turned pale, as if his spiritual power was depleted excessively, his originally black hair started to turn half grey and half white.
The most tragic one was Yan Jinye. Her cultivation level was the weakest, the Heavenly Wood Spirit Light that was connected to her heart and mind exploded when the Silver Armored Corpse spit out the pearl, she directly turned pale as golden paper, blood overflowed from the corner of her mouth and she collapsed on the ground.
Chen Mobai didn’t pay attention to Mei Jingjun. After the Silver Armored Corpse self-detonated its Corpse Pearl, it unexpectedly escaped unscathed, on the contrary, it used this powerful strength to break through the cage of the Heavenly Wood Spirit Light.
He held the gold jade axe and directly cut into the Green Iron Shield in Shan Hongyi’s hand. Then, he extended his sharp claws towards the latter’s heart. Shan Hongyi let go of the shield in his hand, together with the axe on it, he tossed it into the air. His complexion turned fiercely red, intending to use a secret technique that would result in mutual destruction. A green flying sword flew past his cheek from behind, striking straight into the brow of the Silver Armored Corpse.
With a “ding” sound!
The Silver Armored Corpse which was already in front of Shan Hongyi was instantly pushed back, pinned to the opposite mountainside by Chen Mobai’s Divine Wood Sword piercing through its forehead.
“Brother Shan, are you alright?”
The voice of Chen Mobai came from behind. Shan Hongyi, who had been desperately holding on, couldn’t hold on any longer. He sat his rear down on a stone in the lava cave, took out a spirit stone, and began to recover while gasping for breath.
“Brother Chen, I’m fine, but it’s a shame that Brother Bi didn’t cultivate the Heavenly Wood Divine Light Formation, so he couldn’t shield the teleportation power of the Underworld Array like us. Not long ago, he was killed by the demonic corpse.”
With each word Shan Hongyi spoke, his expression became more somber.
His mission this time initially seemed to be a simple task. He never imagined that they would lose a fellow sect member along the way.
■■Ah it’s all my fault for not discovering the operating rules of the Underworld Array sooner. Perhaps if I had come earlier, I might have been able to save Brother Bi.”
Chen Mobai sighed, and Mei Jingjun, who was not far away, walked over with a weak Yan Jinye.
“How did Brother Chen manage to escape the pursuit of the Silver Armored Corpse?”
Mei Jingjun asked curiously. After all, she only realized that they could use the Heavenly Wood Divine Light Formation to block the Underworld Array in a moment of life and death crisis.
This was made possible because the Silver Armored Corpse was delighting in the notion of slowly killing and feeding on them one by one, and had teleported Bi Yiyuan away from them first. When it was killing this physical cultivation cultivator of the Divine Wood Sect, it inadvertently bought Mei Jingjun thinking time, finding a slim chance to survive.
Chen Mobai hesitated for a moment and saw Yan Jinye’s gaze. He knew that this woman was aware of his Sword Dao Realm.
When they return to the sect, it would probably be impossible to hide it. So, he might as well tell the truth.
“I had a bitter battle with that Flying Nether Daoist and managed to kill him..”
