Chapter 531: Chapter 531
"The array formations are truly fascinating!" Zhou Qing couldn’t help but grin.
It should be known, that for such a long time, this was the first time he had managed to open a small gap relying on his own strength. This was undoubtedly a huge breakthrough.
After a brief pause, he adjusted his breathing and exerted his strength again, trying to push the coffin lid open a bit more.
However, the good times didn’t last long. Suddenly, a gloomy aura emanated from the darkness across the river, and a Corpse Wax Crow swooped down like a black lightning bolt.
Fortunately, the Massacre Array played its role just in time, temporarily trapping the Corpse Wax Crow.
Seeing this, Zhou Qing immediately increased his output of Spiritual Power, trying to seize this opportunity to push the coffin completely open.
Unfortunately, things didn’t go as planned.
In the end, the coffin lid seemed to be tightly bound by an invisible and formidable force, and no matter how hard Zhou Qing tried, it wouldn’t budge an inch.
Zhou Qing’s chest heaved violently as he gasped for breath, full of unwillingness.
"This Giant Power Amplification Array is effective, but it’s still not perfected. If it could become a Two-Color Restriction, it might be able to push open in one go, or at least give me a chance to jump down."
Soon, the Corpse Wax Crow broke free from the Massacre Array and beheaded Zhou Qing.
"Number One!" As soon as he transformed into a light orb, the voice of No. 6 Blue Ball sounded nearby.
Zhou Qing couldn’t help but laugh and cry.
Now, No. 4 and No. 5 had each entered their own restricted area, and you were still waiting for me.
In reality, you are a Spirit Severing Realm expert who is very sparing with words, a level four Array Master. The contrast is really not usual.
Oh well, considering the jade slip you broke in the battle of Canglan Mountain, I will go with you again.
Then, Zhou Qing looked at No. 6 Blue Ball and pretended to hesitate for a moment before saying, "In reality, my identity is under some complications, and I cannot use my Spiritual Power. If we encounter any danger, please lend me a hand."
Upon hearing this, the eyes of No. 6 Blue Ball immediately gleamed with joy, nodding repeatedly and eagerly saying, "Thank you, you don’t have to worry about anything, I’ve got this!"
Zhou Qing said, "Let’s go then!"
With a flash of light, Zhou Qing appeared again under that jujube tree.
It was covered with ghastly white paper money, and an old, mottled Peach Wood Sword hung on the branches.
In the distance, giant ancient ships still silently moved forward on the sands, as if they had sailed from antiquity.
"Number One, thank you!" No. 6 Blue Ball bowed in salute, their form hazy at this moment.
After all, outside, they were all light orbs, some actions were really hard to perform.
Zhou Qing waved his hand and said, "You’re welcome, I might not be able to help."
"Please don’t say that. Your help last time allowed me to accurately locate the real key and smoothly pass through the ancient ship, entering that mining area. The things I obtained there were of great help to me."
No. 6 Blue Ball hurriedly explained.
Previously, to pass the first level, they really relied on luck. Even if No. 4 and No. 5 were invited to help, they might not succeed after three attempts.
Finally, they managed to pass, but even after finding good things, they didn’t dare to venture deeper easily. Check latest chapters at Nove1Fire.net
But last time, after they sang love songs under the jujube tree, they gained guidance from the tree. Only she knew the benefits she obtained.
Upon hearing No. 6 say this, Zhou Qing nodded.
"Let’s begin then!" Zhou Qing said.
No. 6 softly asked, "The same love song as last time?"
Zhou Qing’s lips curved slightly, showing a teasing smile as he said, "I don’t have other songs. If you do, I can learn them on the spot."
No. 6’s ears blushed instantly, but her hazy form cleverly covered up this shy detail, so Zhou Qing did not notice.
Zhou Qing saw her silence, feeling secretly pleased for some reason.
In reality, who would dare to tease a Spirit Severing Realm expert ?
He purposefully cleared his throat, adopting a serious demeanor.
"Then let’s do it the old way. I will start."
With that, Zhou Qing closed his eyes lightly and slowly began to sing, "Oh God, can you let me feel, considering we both can’t stop worrying about each other..."
No. 6 quickly recovered and joined Zhou Qing in the singing.
When the song was over, just like last time, the white paper money under the jujube tree surprisingly flew up without wind, as if controlled by an invisible force.
Soon, the paper money gradually gathered, forming a path paved entirely by paper money, extending towards one of the Ghost Ships.
Until a candlelight slowly lit up on that ship, casting a dim glow that flickered in the darkness, as if it could be swallowed by the dark at any moment.
"Let’s go!" Seeing this, Zhou Qing clasped his hands behind his back, walking steadily along the paper money path.
No. 6 quickly followed.
When they passed by that oasis again, Zhou Qing couldn’t help but peek inside out of curiosity.
Then he sighed, seeing the reflections on the water’s surface, where pale-faced children clung tightly to their necks, looking incredibly eerie.
"When did these things latch onto us?" Zhou Qing frowned, a trace of doubt flashing in his eyes.
No. 6 softly explained, "Since the moment we left the jujube tree, or more accurately, once we left that sanctuary, these things seemed to have smelled prey and clung onto us."
Zhou Qing nodded thoughtfully, without saying more.
