The elder was pleading for mercy while slapping two defensive talismans onto his body.

But Chen Mobai, who had just witnessed the elder ruthlessly attacking his companions, only hesitated for a moment before gritted his teeth and activated all the green arrow talismans. At the same time, five bright and colorful beads rose behind him.

“Watch my Green Arrow Talisman.”

Chen Mobai thought about the elder’s sneaky attack method on the brown-clothed youth, feeling him to be a suspicious and deceptive villain, and decided to bluff.

Openly, two Green Arrow Talismans exploded simultaneously, triggering ten Spirit Qi Arrows towards the elder, who had a yellow and blue protective shield rising from his body. Secretly, he manipulated five glass beads, which sparkled with the power fluctuations of the Five Elements, appearing remarkably dazzling, much like magic weapons.

As expected, the elder was visibly puzzled.

The elder hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, and decided to rely on his many years of experience in magic duels, making what he believed to be the correct judgment.

He thought that Chen Mobai was bluffing with his ostentatious Green Arrow Talismans. The real lethal move must be the unassuming but overflowing with spiritual power and extremely dazzling five beads cameo Magic Artifact.

In the end, he activated two Rank-1 intermediate-grade defensive talismans he had prepared for lifesaving, and bravely faced the ten Spirit Qi Arrows.

Simultaneously, the elder threw out his black flag, stirring up the Water Spirits he could control in the Azure Water Array and turned it into layers of waves, surrounding the colorful glass beads that were shot from another direction.

“Eh!?”

To his surprise, the water flow transformed from spiritual energy had just touched the colorful beads thrown by Chen Mobai when they started to crumble like plaster, drifting away and turning into ashes.

“Damn, I’ve fallen for his trap, this kid is very cunning!”

The moment this thought crossed the elder’s mind, the ten green long arrows, condensed with most of Chen Mobai’s spiritual power, had bombarded the two defensive talismans in front of him.

The powerful force caused the elder hiding behind the protective shield to retreat step by step.

The yellow and blue light shields flickered, like a bulb with insufficient power.

The elder, although experienced in the magic duel and rich, was a Rank-3 Qi Cultivator. Without the strength of the Water Mansion Array, he fell into the error of empiricism, was tricked by Chen Mobai, and his spiritual power in Dantian was quickly drained by the two defensive talismans.

Even at this time, despite his defences crumbling, he had no choice but to resist.

The elder took out a bottle of a medicine that recovers spiritual power and without considering the wastage and after-effects, swallowed it all at once. His complexion turned crimson soon after but his spiritual power fluctuation abruptly rose.

The yellow and blue light shields, as if receiving enough spiritual power, started operating at a normal rate.

Bang! Bang! Bang! …

The elder managed to withstand seven green Spirit Qi Long Arrows in succession, running out of strength and they disappeared. The yellow light shield on his body also reached its limit, turned into a yellow glow on the ground, and disappeared.

But surprisingly, the elder was rather pleased at this point because based on his many years of experience in duels, he had estimated that his remaining water attribute defensive talisman can completely block the remaining three Spirit Qi Arrows.

He had successfully counterattacked a Rank-5 Qi Cultivator while being a Rank-3 Qi Cultivator before.

As the elder was planning his counterattack and how to kill Chen Mobai to claim the Water Mansion for himself, he suddenly realised something.

“Not right, this kid had planned this from the start!”

He wanted to adjust his position, but it was already too late. Chen Mobai’s spiritual power breakthrough caused the remaining power of Green Arrow Talisman to explode at once. The three green long arrows heavily struck the blue light shield on the Elder’s body and moved him three steps back.

These three steps made the elder’s back touch the stone door in the middle hall of the Water Mansion.

Hiss!

The deep blue light lighting restriction was triggered, shattering the elder’s blue light shield which still had considerable power remaining, and then without resistance, entered his body. His body split into fragments amidst his screams.

“Huff Huff Huff…”

Chen Mobai was panting heavily, not just because his spiritual power was exhausted, but also seeing someone die right before his eyes for the first time.

Although he had watched such scenes countless times in movies and series.

But never like now, did he feel an indescribable enormous impact.

His mind was blank.

Although he didn’t kill the two men, there was nonetheless a direct connection.

Feeling dizzy, Chen Mobai sat on the ground.

He didn’t know how much time passed until a fish whose eyes had rolled up flopped beside his feet, finally bringing him back to his senses.

The Azure Water Array had shown a flaw after one Array Flag was broken by his Green Arrow Talisman.

The hole that the elder opened was always there, it was not closing again.

The fish, aimlessly floating in the water, was lucky enough to find this hole. Losing the shelter of the water flow, it tried to hop as much as it could but eventually died by Chen Mobai’s side.

“I need to find a way to fix this defensive array.”

Chen Mobai muttered to himself, he still didn’t know where he was.

According to the elder, it was a place called the “Eastern Wilderness.”

It was a lawless place.

If the Water Mansion is discovered by others, Chen Mobai believed any reasoning with them was futile.

Therefore, it was better to repair the Azure Water Array and hide the Water Mansion again.

However, experimentation was notoriously tricky to get into, out of the four departments of Technique, Pill, Magic Artifact, and Array, though Chen Mobai worked hard at all, his results were average.

He walked over to the broken Array Flag, bound it with rope, and re-erected it.

However, it didn’t serve any purpose.

Sighing, Chen Mobai noticed the black flag, which the elder had used to crush the glass beads. An idea sparked in his mind and using the Propulsion Technique; he controlled it from a distance and replaced the broken Array Flag with the black flag.

He waited for a quarter of an hour, but there was no response.

Chen Mobai racked his brains and recalled everything he learned in class about arrays.

In the end, he remembered an example the teacher had given.

An array was akin to a precise machine; once a part was replaced and fixed, it needed to activate and refill with spiritual power, much like how a new device needed a power test.

Chen Mobai hesitated for a moment. After all, he was not a professional Array Master and feared the activation step was dangerous.

But considering the substantial help the Water Mansion, a Rank-2 intermediate-grade Spiritual Land, provided for his cultivation in the past three days, he decided to take the risk and give it a try.

He injected a stream of spiritual power into the Black Flag.

Still no response.

No, the activation should be done at the main Array Flag.

Chen Mobai remembered another knowledge point and went to the main array base in the middle of the front hall and injected spiritual power.

Humm!

Then, to his delight, the hole in the Azure Water Array began to slowly close until it vanished.

It worked after all.
