Once they entered, they noticed the surroundings had changed, becoming somewhat special.

Inside, fog rose densely, a gray haze hung in the air, ancient trees towered, and there was a special magnetic field that made their sense of direction extremely blurred.

"An array!" Chen Xiao squinted, "This is a huge confusing array!"

Large-scale arrays are actually very rare nowadays.

Therefore, very few people understand this thing, but Chen Xiao is different. In Xuan Daozi’s Book Storage Pavilion, there are some ancient books about arrays.

So, he is also quite proficient in arrays.

And this confusing array is not simple, it can cover such a large area!

"If we can’t get out of this confusing array, then next, we will be completely lost here, ultimately, no one knows what will happen." Chen Xiao’s voice was heavy.

Leng Baiyu’s pretty face looked somewhat troubled; after all, although she was very proficient in Martial Dao, she only practiced Martial Dao and was utterly clueless about arrays.

At this moment, they could only rely on Chen Xiao.

Chen Xiao’s gaze swept over the surroundings, subtly sensing the minute changes around him.

No array is completely flawless.

If he can find the array eye and break this confusing array, then the array will become completely ineffective, or if he finds a path to leave the confusing array, he can also break the array.

A moment later, Chen Xiao spoke, "Senior Sister, follow me, remember where I step!"

He now has some understanding of this confusing array.

His current location is in the northwest, and this array is similar to the legendary Eight Desolate God Trapping Array. The name sounds imposing, but it’s not a particularly profound array. To leave this confusing array, they must find the array eye in the northwest.

Otherwise, they will be trapped in this area, endlessly turning in circles.

Leng Baiyu followed Chen Xiao.

She noticed that Chen Xiao’s steps had a certain rhythm, and she followed his steps. Surprisingly, the fog before her gradually dissipated, and the path underfoot became clearer and clearer.

Ten minutes later, Chen Xiao arrived in front of an ancient stele.

The ancient stele was inscribed with Sanskrit.

Chen Xiao directly sliced it apart with his sword.

As the stele shattered, the mist around them slowly faded.

Leng Baiyu said in astonishment, "Is this..."

"This is the array eye in the northwest of this array; now, we’ve left the confusing array."

Leng Baiyu nodded.

At this moment, within the Buddha Ancient Temple, the abbot sitting cross-legged on the ground showed a hint of surprise on his face, "Someone broke an array eye so quickly? Are they people from the Western Holy Court?"

As the abbot of the Buddha Ancient Temple, he had ventured into this Secret Land and knew this confusing array was not easy to exit, but the higher the cultivation, the greater the resistance to it.

The first person to break the array eye should be the one with the strongest cultivation.

Previously, the young monk sparring with Chen Xiao asked, "Abbot, can our plan really succeed?" 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

"The Glazed Glass Bodhi Heart is not yet mature. Normally, it would take fifty more years for it to mature, but with any external stimulus, its maturity time could be accelerated."

"These Half-step Grandmasters, filled with vigorous blood and powerful strength, are the best nourishment for the Bodhi Ancient Tree to hasten ripening! Besides, they kill each other, so what does it matter to us?"

"If... someone really obtains the Glazed Glass Bodhi Heart, are we truly going to give it to them?"

"It is the sacred object of our Buddha Ancient Temple. Allowing them a glance is the greatest gift from Buddha, giving it to them? Naturally, that’s impossible!" The abbot smiled faintly, his face still wearing that benevolent and compassionate expression, "They are not people of our ancient temple, how could they have any affiliation with Buddha?"

The young monk nodded upon hearing this.

At this time, within the Secret Land, Chen Xiao and his companion continued onward.

Soon, they heard intense sounds of fighting ahead.

Then, there was a scream.

"It seems those guys have already started killing each other." Chen Xiao squinted his eyes.

"This Buddha Ancient Temple seems to have been purposefully making us kill each other from start to finish." Leng Baiyu had realized the crux of the matter, her brows deeply furrowing.

Chen Xiao sneered, "They better not have deceived me; there better be a Bodhi Liuli Heart here, otherwise I’ll flatten this place!"

Just then, they suddenly saw a figure appear ahead.

It was the middle-aged man in the kimono, holding a katana, with blood still seeping from its tip.

He stepped towards Chen Xiao and his companion, "Are you two from the Divine Land?"

Chen Xiao and Leng Baiyu couldn’t be bothered to engage with him.

The middle-aged man sneered again, "In the Divine Land, there are few people of your age with Half-step Grandmaster cultivation. Especially for women, I can only think of one!"

"Dragon Soul Sect, Leng Baiyu, am I right?"

"The other one... might you be Chen Xiao, who killed many of our brave warriors in the Hundred Countries Military Battle?"

Chen Xiao stared at him indifferently, "What do you want to say?"

The middle-aged man tightened his grip on the steel sword slightly, his eyes becoming somewhat ferocious, "Seems, you’re admitting your identity."

He shouted, "Chen Xiao! I was going to avenge my son on you, and to unexpectedly meet you here, it’s like finding a needle in a haystack without searching and yet finding it! Today, I will cut down you little brat to avenge my son!"

He originally planned to become a Great Grandmaster and then go to Divine Land to kill Chen Xiao to avenge his son. Unexpectedly, he met him here!

"Sorry, I’ve killed too many people of Yang Country, I don’t know which one is your son?" Chen Xiao taunted, "Tell me, and I can send you to die in the same way!"

The middle-aged man in the kimono laughed angrily, "My son, Iga Gangban! And I am the Family Head of the Iga Clan, one of the three Sword Kings in Yang Country, the strongest under Great Grandmaster, Iga Yidao!"

"So, it was him." Chen Xiao sneered, "Your son, that weakling, had his head chopped off by me. Today, I will also chop your head off so you and your son can face King Yan as headless ghosts!"

"Ah—!" Hearing Chen Xiao insult his deceased son and dismiss him so lightly, Iga Yidao was furious. He gripped his steel sword tightly, an intimidating sword aura condensed, and then his body vanished rapidly from view!

The blade instantly traced an arc in the air, the sword aura swift as a thunderbolt, slicing the air, producing a series of explosive sounds.

Iga Yidao’s attack gathered all his strength, striking as swift as thunder, his blade techniques were fierce and domineering, emphasizing overcoming the enemy in one strike. In Yang Country’s blade technique circles, no one had ever parried his three strikes!

Chen Xiao snorted coldly, the Fish Intestine Sword rotating in his palm, blocking his strike!

The immense power surged.

His arm was bent some, and the ground beneath his feet cracked!

He spoke in a low voice, "It seems you do have some skill."

Hearing this evaluation, Iga Yidao let out a couple of angry laughs and turned the sword blade again. This time, the blade swung swiftly, instantaneously transforming into seven strands of sword energy attacking from all angles, surrounding Chen Xiao.

Chen Xiao constantly swung his sword, slicing through these strands of sword energy!

The next moment, his Fish Intestine Sword penetrated through the storm of defenses, ghostly reaching Iga Yidao!

Not expecting Chen Xiao to break his blade techniques so quickly, Iga Yidao trembled all over, only feeling a chilling threat at his neck, his body retreated rapidly!

"Did you forget about me?" Leng Baiyu’s voice suddenly spoke coldly into his ear.
