Monts later, he approached the sand dune.
His eyes widened as he scrutinized the dune, noticing that it was emanating a powerful Illusion Array energy.
Joy surged in his heart, knowing that he had finally found the Array Eye of the Illusion Array.
He took a deep breath and his Primordial Power burst forth in an instant. He then rapidly launched a fierce attack on the sand dune on the ground.
Booming sounds were incessant; he kept hurling Void Palms at the dune to destroy the Array Eye within it.
anwhile, the Martial Artists in the distance all widened their eyes, watching Duan Gu Jinzhao striking the dune on the ground with palm after palm.
"Has that person gone mad?"
This thought crossed the minds of many.
Monts later, they saw vibrant lights suddenly appear in the sky ahead.
After the colorful radiance flashed by, the sky that had been bright as day instantly turned pitch black all around.
"Good heavens! The sun has disappeared!"
"Yes, the sun has vanished!"
As everyone saw the sun that hung high in the sky suddenly disappear, they imdiately thought this anomaly must be related to Duan Gujin's recent actions.
So who had just considered Duan Gujin a madman imdiately felt their faces flush with embarrassnt.
But those Martial Artists had thick skins and quickly returned to normal.
"Worthy of Mr. Duan, to have found the Array Eye of the Illusion Array just like that!"
Yan Dapang's eyes flashed; he imdiately surmised that it was probably Duan Gujin's destruction of the Array Eye that led to these changes.
The crowd cheered and rushed toward the location of Duan Gujin, with so eager to see if he had found any valuable clues, fearing that he would keep the spoils to himself.
After destroying the Array Eye, Duan Gujin imdiately sat cross-legged to regulate his breath and recover his Primordial Power.
At the sa ti, he was carefully observing the changes in his surroundings.
Soon, those Martial Artists rushed towards him.
Ning Tiancheng asked, "Brother, did you find any valuable clues here just now?"
Duan Gujin quickly shook his head, "No, what I did was destroy the Array Eye of the Illusion Array here. Once the Array Eye is disrupted, a strong explosion will be triggered. Look at this place; it's been blown into a huge pit."
Duan Gujin, of course, understood the true thoughts of those Martial Artists but thought that this was human nature, and thus he didn't bla them for trying to gain an advantage.
The crowd all looked at the huge pit blown open earlier, thinking that if there had been any Treasure, it must have been destroyed by the explosion.
"My friend, can you tell what kind of Illusion Array that was?"
ng Wanzhen asked with curiosity.
"That was an Illusion Array that only reacts when it detects a Martial Artist approaching. If all of us move forward together, the Illusion Array will detect everyone's Qi and will imdiately activate, trapping us inside. If I conceal my Life Aura, not revealing my full strength, and cautiously approach the Illusion Array, it will automatically ignore my presence. Then I can search for the Array Eye nearby! After finding the Array Eye, destroying it is all it takes!"
Duan Gujin explained.
"So that's how it is! We have been negligent all along! My friend, you've made a great contribution!"
Ning Tiancheng imdiately followed.
By doing so, he aid not to let ng Wanzhen think highly of Duan Gujin, attributing his own oversight to negligence.
"It's nothing, let's move forward now!"
Duan Gujin stood up and advanced together with the crowd.
"Everyone, how about this—I'll go ahead first to see if there's an Illotion Array up front. You all wait here for !"
Ning Tiancheng promptly said to the crowd.
"Alright!"
The suggestion was echoed by many Martial Artists.
Duan Gujin touched his nose and remained silent, letting Ning Tiancheng take the lead.
He knew Ning Tiancheng wanted to show off in front of everyone, but during his earlier recuperation, he hadn't detected any Illusion Array ahead, although there were strong energy fluctuations. He suspected there might be a Killing Array ahead.
Yet this was rely his guess. He knew that to uncover the truth, he would have to get closer first.
At this point, Ning Tiancheng wanted to play the hero, so Duan Gujin simply let him do it.
Everyone's eyes widened as they watched Ning Tiancheng keep moving forward.
After a while, they saw Ning Tiancheng's body get blasted away.
"There's a Killing Array ahead!"
Everyone quickly realized that Ning Tiancheng had triggered the Killing Array, which caused his body to be blown away.
"As expected, it's a Killing Array!"
Duan Gujin sighed. He suspected that Ning Tiancheng was completely unable to distinguish whether there was an Illusion Array or a Killing Array ahead, leading to his mishap and getting blown away by the Killing Array.
Ning Tiancheng's body fell heavily to the ground and rolled over a dozen tis before finally stabilizing.
Everyone rushed over imdiately to rescue him.
So Martial Artists quickly began healing him with cultivation. Once his injuries improved slightly, they prompted him to reveal the truth.
"I stepped on a Killing Array! Why didn't you say there was a Killing Array ahead?"
Ning Tiancheng suddenly blad Duan Gujin.
Duan Gujin said innocently, "I would have to get closer to sense what's ahead! I'm not an Immortal; you saw how careful and cautious I was just now!"
Hearing Duan Gujin's words, everyone imdiately recalled how careful and cautious Duan Gujin had been earlier. He had spent a good while finding the position of the Illusion Array Eye.
On the other hand, Ning Tiancheng seed very reckless, eventually stepping on the Killing Array.
"Let's talk this through, everyone. It seems that Heaven Stealing Immortal Sect wouldn't set up an Illusion Array here, followed by another one. They must have set various chanical Traps!"
A Martial Saint from the team spoke up.
"Yes, that must be it!"
The other people agreed with what the Martial Saint said.
Suddenly, they all realized that Ning Tiancheng triggering the Killing Array was due to his own carelessness, and he should not bla Duan Gujin.
Ning Tiancheng sighed and fell silent, realizing that he had indeed been careless before.
However, a thought flashed through his mind—he wanted to teach Duan Gujin a lesson!
"This man! To let lose face in front of the goddess, if I don't teach him a lesson, my resentnt won't be appeased!"
Duan Gujin felt a glint of coldness flash in Ning Tiancheng's eyes and touched his nose, lanting internally.
"Damn it! When did I offend him? It was he who played the hero and stepped on the Killing Array! How can that be my fault?"
"Let's set off together. If there's really an Illusion Array ahead, I will be able to detect it. Everyone must be extrely cautious, for sure there will be various unexpected chanical Traps!"
Duan Gujin said.
"Friend, how about we join forces? I am a Martial Saint, and so are you; our chances of success will be higher together."
A Martial Saint said to Duan Gujin.
"Alright, let's first conceal our Life Aura, then we'll go ahead together. Everyone behind us, conceal your Life Aura too, don't let it influence our judgnt!"
Duan Gujin said.
"Okay!"
The group of Martial Artists behind them nodded in agreent.
Duan Gujin and the Martial Saint then concealed their Life Aura and cautiously moved forward.
After advancing a kiloter, they discovered a powerful Array ahead.
