Chapter 359: Chapter 359 Qimen Eight Directions Gold Lock_1

At the same time, above the mouth of hell.

Ah Da and Ah Er, along with dozens of assassins, had rushed to the scene following the trail.

"Ah Er, did you say that Ye Fei and Ah Si have gone into the mouth of hell? Are you sure you’re not mistaken?"

"Big brother, you can doubt my character, but you can’t doubt my tracking skills, can you? Tell me, in all the years we’ve been doing missions together, have I ever made a mistake in this regard?"

"Hmm, indeed you haven’t. But this mouth of hell, it’s extremely dangerous, why would those two go in there?"

Ah Er: "One wouldn’t enter such a perilous place without a compelling reason. Big brother, do we pursue or not?"

Ah Da thought for a moment, "Pursue! The mission given by the director is one thing, but what if we also get an unexpected windfall? Right?"

After hearing the two of them speak, several of the subordinates became fearful.

One of them said, "Big brother, second brother, this mouth of hell is extraordinarily dangerous, I think we shouldn’t risk our lives recklessly. What if..."

Pfft!

The person hadn’t even finished speaking when Ah Da slit his throat with a knife.

"Does anyone else have questions?"

Seeing this, the others exchanged glances, not daring to utter another word.

So, a group of several dozen people tied their ropes and also delved into the depths of the abyss.

...

After that, Ye Fei and Ah Si encountered several other waves of toxic attacks from within the cave, but all were neutralized one by one.

After climbing for over two hours, the two finally reached a platform only tens of meters away from the bottom of the mouth of hell.

Because there was flowing magma at the bottom of the pit, and the rock walls were also densely covered with bioluminescent organisms similar to fireflies,

the entire bottom space was relatively well-lit.

Ye Fei stood at the edge of the platform and looked down.

Beyond the stream of flowing magma beside him, was an expanse of pale yellow mist swirling around.

"Toxic miasma!"

Ah Si quickly covered her nose and mouth, frowning as she spoke.

Ye Fei corrected her, "This is not just any toxic miasma, but a deadly kind known as the ’Yellow Ghost’. This toxic miasma is a hundred times more potent than the ordinary kind."

"Without professional protective gear, once one steps into it, they would be poisoned and dead within seconds."

"Moreover, this miasma is extremely corrosive. Look over there."

Ye Fei pointed to a spot less than a hundred meters away to the front left.

Ah Si looked and saw that there lay a dozen or so skeletal remains.

These skeletons had been nearly obliterated by corrosion, and there was still some remnants of fabric-like material around them.

Ah Si understood that this was the remnants of professional protective clothing.

The level of corrosion that could nearly destroy protective clothing and bones was a clear indicator of how potent the miasma was.

Ye Fei looked around for a while and through the miasma, quickly saw that about three to four hundred meters straight ahead, there was a faint cluster of colorful flowers.

Yes! That must be where the deep abyss spirits grew!

"You wait here, I’ll be right back," he said.

This time Ah Si wasn’t stubborn.

She knew well that with her own abilities, she could not possibly withstand the miasma’s invasion.

Going would only cause trouble.

So, she nodded her head.

"Be careful."

Ye Fei did not respond, but leaped down with a bound. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

Ah Si looked on worriedly from above.

She saw the scorching temperature, the dangerous miasma, and the venomous creatures that thrived in such a treacherous environment.

All of this made her shiver with fear.

Even though she was not in it herself, the immense pressure that weighed upon her soul made her throat feel parched, and cold sweat broke out on her forehead.

However, Ye Fei was different.

Facing the threatening conditions around him, he appeared utterly unconcerned and composed.

But he had barely taken a dozen steps out.

When Ah Si shouted a loud reminder.

"Wait a minute! There seems to be something drawn at your feet ahead of you!"

Ye Fei looked down, and sure enough.

A few steps in front of him on the ground, there was a huge array inscribed.

On both sides of the stone walls, there were also numerous densely packed holes.

Ye Fei found it incredible; he hadn’t expected that someone had actually set up mechanisms here?!

Who had set it up?

As Ye Fei pondered, Ah Si, who had a profound understanding of Qimen Dunjia, observed for a moment and then cried out in astonishment, "This! This seems to be the Qimen Eight Directions Golden Lock Array!"

Ye Fei certainly realized it too, but he didn’t care in the slightest.

With a smile, he prepared to step forward, intending to quickly cross using the correct method of the array.

But as soon as he was about to step forward, Ah Si screamed out to stop him, "Don’t move! Didn’t you hear what I said, this is the Qimen Eight Directions Golden Lock Array!"

"This formation is divided into Yin and Yang poles, and each pole is further divided into Qian, Kun, Zhen, Xun, Kan, Li, Gen, and Dui – the eight trigrams. Each trigram also branches out into sixty-four variations."

"Unpredictable and profoundly intricate. To get through, one must step on the corresponding array nodes."

"Otherwise, no matter how skilled you are, you’ll definitely be blasted to pieces by the traps!"

Ah Si spoke eloquently, but Ye Fei was not impressed.

"It’s just a Golden Lock Array, what’s the big deal? I can break it in minutes."

Ye Fei thought to himself, back when I discussed Qimen Dunjia with all the immortal lords and divine sovereigns, this Qimen Eight Directions Golden Lock Array was simply child’s play—so trivial we couldn’t even be bothered to talk about it.

It’s not as hard to break as you say.

Ah Si had no idea about Ye Fei’s glorious past, thinking he underestimated the power of the array.

So she continued to explain loudly, "I’ve studied Qimen Dunjia diligently since childhood and still couldn’t catch a glimpse of the array’s nodes. How could you possibly break it in minutes?"

"Come up quickly, let me think of a solution to break the array first."

"I don’t have that much time to waste."

As Ye Fei spoke, he moved like he was playing hopscotch, skillfully passing through according to the sequence of Kai, Xiu, Sheng, Si, Jing, Shang, Du, Jing.

Avoiding the deadly gates, he trod only through the gates of life.

In less than a minute, he had easily passed through the Eight Directions Golden Lock Array.

At first, Ah Si was terrified to see Ye Fei acting so recklessly, breaking out into a cold sweat.

But after watching him seemingly play through the array, Ah Si was utterly dumbfounded, standing there with her mouth agape and eyes wide with disbelief.

Is this guy an expert in Qimen Dunjia as well?

I, I was blind!
