Chapter 417: Chapter 183: Treasure Revealed, Instant Defeat of Late-stage S-level

Retreating fifty kilometers, Yi Tian found a cave behind a mountain peak.

This peak faced away from Spirit Mist Peak. Even if the S-level Lord could see the backside of the mountain, it would be difficult to spot the cave within.

Yi Tian believed that the S-level expert was focused on treasure hunting and wouldn’t be idly watching them all the time.

Yi Tian took out the Cloud Void Stone.

To activate the Cloud Void Stone, spiritual power had to be injected.

On the surface, Chi Ying was a body refiner, but he had cultivated spiritual power; he just hadn’t practiced any martial skill.

His spiritual power wasn’t high, only about a thousand points, compared to his 2500+ three-dimensional stats, talent, and various skills. Chi Ying’s spiritual power barely had any presence.

Just like Little White, Howling Moon Silver Wolf, and Eastsea Falcon, they also had over two hundred points of spiritual power. All thanks to eating spirit fruits!

Guii Yidao’s spiritual power was also a thousand.

But that’s all!

Take Tai Zhong, Thunder Yuan, and the Rose Sisters. They are Qi Refiners; cultivating in three dimensions strengthens body and mind, complementing inner and outer.

Body Refiners are the same.

Body Refiners have over 2000 in three dimensions, can’t they get a Qi Refining Technique?

Of course they can!

But they wouldn’t put the cart before the horse.

Only a few peerless Celestial Prides would choose to cultivate both body and qi.

Yi Tian definitely had to cultivate both. Because the Ice and Fire Celestial Palm was domineering—without a strong physique, he’d be countered by ice and fire backlash.

Except for Eastsea Falcon, everyone else—human and beast—was within the concealment range of the Cloud Void Stone.

Eastsea Falcon soared to tens of thousands of meters above Spirit Mist Peak, attracting indigenous people, making them believe the Lord was treasure hunting.

The Demon Lord’s two Divine Eagles, one blue and one black, were well-known to the indigenous people.

Yi Tian cautioned his people and beasts not to leave the three hundred square meter radius.

The Cloud Void Stone could conceal not only physical form but also qi perception.

Yi Tian considered blocking qi perception to be as important as hiding their forms.

The weak could hardly block qi perception in front of the strong.

With this Cloud Void Stone, everything was resolved.

Even Second Child, without Shunfeng Ear, could barely detect the hidden figures inside the Cloud Void Stone’s effect.

"Daddy, let me look at her again."

Second Child spoke, seven-colored light flickering in his eyes.

At this moment, they had moved closer to within three hundred kilometers of Spirit Mist Peak.

"Daddy, she’s really alert! But this time, I didn’t startle her. She looked towards our location, but didn’t discover us!"

Second Child reported to Yi Tian.

"Good, let’s not rush. As long as we’re not exposed, it’s fine." Yi Tian felt relieved.

The Cloud Void Stone was really handy!

The Divine Maiden at Spirit Mist Peak, breaking arrays, furrowed her delicate brows slightly.

She felt watched.

But couldn’t locate any figures.

The Divine Maiden thought of Little Kiddo—certain it was her.

The absence of any presence surely meant an artifact that not only made one invisible but cut off qi mechanism as well.

The Divine Maiden felt a bad premonition and cast out array techniques one after another, speeding up her array-breaking.

A quarter hour later, the first array was shattered.

"Awoo!"

A nameless S-grade fierce beast appeared.

The Divine Maiden lifted her fair hand adorned with a jade bracelet, and from her slender jade-like fingertip emitted a beam of icy light.

"Puchi!"

The S-level beast didn’t even get a chance to resist, pierced through with a mere finger.

The Divine Maiden flicked her delicate hand, and the S-level Beast Core inside the creature flew into her palm, then instantly disappeared upon her hand.

"Quite a fine Array Master, three layers of arrays in total."

The Divine Maiden murmured, continuing upward toward Spirit Mist Peak’s heights.

She looked back toward every corner in the south once more—not a trace could be seen...

Regional channel.

When Yi Tian felt it was about time, he messaged the regional channel.

"Brothers, we haven’t seen indigenous people near our region for a long time. They must’ve left! Seven hours left, and with no half-hidden chests this time, luck should bring us a good haul." Earth Human Race, Yi Tian.

Yi Tian’s words received many responses from other Lords.

His reputation was high in Zone 66—even the invaders were afraid of him.

At this moment, Yi Tian had arrived fifty kilometers from Spirit Mist Peak.

They could clearly see the towering peak.

This was the tallest among all the nearby mountains.

Multicolored plants, towering trees, and at the mountain’s base a large lake shrouded in mist—all backed by the lofty peak—composed a landscape like an Immortal Realm painting.

"Lord, this mountain has the power of an array about it," Tai Zhong approached Yi Tian and spoke.

"Are you saying the Profound Robe King set up arrays in the ruins?"

SS-level strength and array Dao—at least at Great Success.

"Yes! But arrays decay with time. After tens of thousands of years, even those that absorb spiritual qi can hardly function at their original power." Tai Zhong answered Yi Tian.

"Rumble!"

As soon as Tai Zhong finished speaking, the sound of "thunder" echoed.

But everyone knew it wasn’t real thunder.

The sky was clear without a cloud, how could there be thunder?

In that instant, everyone witnessed a breathtaking sight.

Spirit Mist Peak was visibly rising upward at rapid speed.

That sound was the hum of Spirit Mist Peak as it soared higher.

Rocks faintly tumbled down. Birds in the forest were startled and scattered.

The originally five or six thousand meter-high peak now stood seven or eight thousand meters tall, piercing the clouds.

"This is the Mountain Concealment Array within the Spirit Concealing Triple Array—an array only an Array Master can construct."

Of them all, the most amazed and envious was Tai Zhong.

Only at array mastery can one be called a Master.

"No wonder Spirit Mist Peak stands so obviously, yet its treasure remains untouched. This is the true face of Spirit Mist Peak."

Unlike the Ancient Dark Forest, which at a glance is clearly deserted.

Spirit Mist Peak is surrounded by the Lord’s mist.

Surely, many indigenous people have visited Spirit Mist Peak.

"To break this Mountain Concealment Array, one must be proficient in array Dao?"

Yi Tian asked Tai Zhong. If S-level Lords also practiced arrays, Yi Tian would have to be even more cautious.
