Infinite Comprehension by Taking In Disciples: Martial Uncle, Please Ascend!-Chapter 468 - 355 Waters of the Styx_1
The ancestral land of the Dragon Clan, which is the burial ground of the Dragon Emperor, has existed for too many years, and countless Divine Emperors had been born and buried here.
Ahead was an entrance to a Secret Land, nestled deep within the Dragon God Temple, enshrouded by multi-layered formations.
Li Cheng took a cursory look and said with suspicion, "Nine layers of formations enshroud it; the outermost Formation is of the eighth-grade Divine Array, and the ones inside appear to be no lower than eighth grade; not even a Divine Emperor could break through."
At his words, Ao Wuzhan sighed to himself. Could it be that Li Cheng also couldn't break through?
However, Li Cheng continued, "What I wonder is, how did your father, the emperor, manage to get in?"
Ao Wuzhan did not hide anything and said, "The emperor carried the Dragon God Crown, which is the key to entering the ancestral land."
Li Cheng nodded, understanding the situation.
"Li Cheng, can you open these formations?" Wushuang asked with anticipation.
Li Cheng smiled, "All these are man-made Divine Arrays. Since they were created by people, there must be flaws, so naturally, they can be opened, but it might take some time."
At this, both Ao Wuzhan and Wushuang were overjoyed. They could be broken!
Li Cheng could indeed do it!
"It doesn't matter if it takes a little longer, thank you Brother Li for taking action!" Ao Wuzhan took a deep breath and said.
Li Cheng nodded, stepped forward, and placed his hand on the Formation, then closed his eyes and began to sense it.
After the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, Array Patterns surged around Li Cheng, and the Formation slowly opened a gap, through which Li Cheng stepped, followed by the three of them.
The second Formation was clearly much more powerful than the first, giving off an oppressive feeling that made it hard to breathe. Ao Wuzhan exclaimed, "A ninth-grade Divine Array!"
Li Cheng placed his hand on it once again, and this time, he directly used his Enlightenment attempts!
"What? Brother Li is actually having an Enlightenment!" Ao Wuzhan watched Li Cheng in amazement, beginning to understand why few could match Li Cheng's Array Mastery. Entering a state of Enlightenment so effortlessly, he must have had many insights into Divine Arrays, how could his Array Mastery not be high?
In a state of Enlightenment, Li Cheng was not simply finding the weak points of the Formation to break through, but was meticulously perceiving it. It took a full four hours before he thoroughly understood it and then left the state of Enlightenment.
"How is it?" Wushuang asked eagerly.
Li Cheng waved his hands and the Formation opened a gap on its own, allowing the four to enter and arrive at the next Formation.
The following seven Formations were all ninth-grade, and it took Li Cheng three full days to completely understand them. After all, these were ninth-grade Formations. While breaking them under the Enlightenment state could be done at will, rare as it is to encounter a ninth-grade Formation, how could Li Cheng pass up the opportunity?
Now that he had grasped these eight ninth-grade Formations, he felt an epiphany as if understanding one opened the way to understanding all. Should he encounter a ninth-grade Divine Array in the future, he could break it with ease!
Upon opening the final Formation, Li Cheng said, "Thank you all for your patience!"
Ao Wuzhan and the others looked at each other; just three days, was that really a long wait?
When Li Cheng previously spoke of needing a long time, who would have thought it would take only three days to break through an eighth-grade and eight ninth-grade Divine Arrays!
When Li Cheng mentioned he needed a long time, Ao Wuzhan had braced himself for tens of thousands of years!
Who could have guessed that the long time referred to by Li Cheng would be just three days!
Their different perceptions of time left the three of them momentarily struggling to adjust.
Ao Wuzhan coughed lightly and laughed, "Brother Li's mastery over Formations is beyond imagination. Such speed in breaking arrays is truly shocking!"
Li Cheng felt a bit embarrassed in his heart. What would happen if they knew he had fully comprehended these Formations?
Changing the topic, Ao Wuzhan said, "There definitely are many dangers inside. Wushuang, you should enter my Divine World. The three of us will be enough to explore."
Wushuang hesitated for a few seconds but finally nodded. She knew she was a burden, and without objecting, she entered Ao Wuzhan's Divine World.
"Brother Li, rest assured, if there's any danger, I will protect you with all my strength!" Ao Wuzhan said and led the way into the entrance.
As they stepped through the entrance, the scene before them changed, and they arrived in a world that seemed somewhat dim.
Looking around, mountainous peaks stood tall, disconnected from each other, almost as if... they were huge tombs!
"There's definitely something wrong. The ancestral land is a world transformed by the Dragon Ancestor's Divine World. It used to be bright and clear, with dense Divine Qi, but now it's become like this, devoid of Divine Qi, filled with Death aura!" Ao Wuzhan frowned.
The Dragon Emperor also frowned, "This Death aura is so intense and pure that even Divine Monarchs would struggle to endure it. If one were to stay here too long, one would inevitably become a Dead Spirit."
Li Cheng glanced at the two of them, "You mean to say, is it the work of the Dead Spirits, trying to turn the Dragon Corpses of Divine Emperor level into Dead Spirits?"
"That's a strong possibility, but we also can't rule out that one of our ancestor's bodies held a treasured item of the Dead Spirits, gradually transforming this place into what it is now," Ao Wuzhan suggested.
The Dragon Emperor surveyed the area. "First, let's find the Clan Leader and see what he knows; he has been here for hundreds of thousands of years and must know much."
"That's exactly what I had in mind!"
Ao Wuzhan said, taking out a Jade Slip and pouring his Divine Sense into it.
Gradually, the Jade Slip floated up and sped off in a direction.
"It can locate my father, follow it!"
Following the Jade Slip, they flew over tomb-like mountains, traveling a hundred thousand miles, before arriving at a pitch-black lake.
At this moment, the Jade Slip floated above the lake, swaying up and down, as if indicating that the Dragon Emperor was in the lake.
Ao Wuzhan put away the Jade Slip and stared at the lake, his expression growing more solemn.
The Dragon Emperor was the same.
