Chapter 886 - 364: Jade Bed and Profound Water Divine Technique (Part 4)

As soon as he stepped into the Cave Mansion, Chu Ning only felt his vision suddenly darken, and he actually fell into boundless darkness.

And by his side, there was no sign at all of Cen Zijin and Bai Ling.

"Zijin!"

"Bai Ling!"

He called out twice casually, but no one answered.

Chu Ning simply stopped calling, sent out his Divine Sense, and began sensing the Array in this place.

Over these years, Chu Ning had already delved quite deeply into the Path of Array.

During the year or so in the Purple Moon Sect, he had been worried that there were Nascent Soul Cultivators in Little Yao Mountain of his Sect, so for things like the Profound Ice Flame and other Treasures he didn’t dare take them out casually.

Apart from his Cultivation, most of his time was spent comprehending Arrays.

He had gone back over all the Array knowledge he’d learned before, sorting it out once more, and his comprehension had deepened by several degrees.

Coupled with the Talent of his Array Spirit Body, he naturally gained insight into the Array Formation Method here very quickly.

After about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Chu Ning found the Array’s weak point.

Then, he passed through this Array.

What appeared before his eyes was another scene: wild winds and drifting sand.

The fierce power of the storm gave a strong sense of being sliced apart.

Chu Ning’s brows twitched slightly, and he once again began the process of searching for the Array’s weak point to break through.

After he went through a full five layers of Arrays like this, a white shadow flashed before his eyes.

Bai Ling suddenly appeared in front of Chu Ning.

"Young Master, so you’re here. I had quite the time looking for you."

As Bai Ling spoke, she shifted into human form, then, with a hint of surprise on her face, said:

"There are too many Arrays in this Cave Mansion. I just walked all the way to get here and actually passed through dozens of Array Restrictions.

And not only does each one have a different style, their strength is not the same either."

"Dozens of Array Restrictions?" Chu Ning’s face also showed surprise at this.

"Why would there be so many set up here? Right, have you seen Zijin?"

Bai Ling shook her head.

"I just saw that there were too many Array Restrictions inside here, and it seemed that every direction had different Array Restrictions, so I just picked one direction to go."

"Every direction has them—so that means if I broke the Array from different directions, I might not have ended up in this place."

Hearing Bai Ling say this, Chu Ning couldn’t help but show a strange expression. He led Bai Ling back into the Array they’d just been in.

On a closer probe, he indeed discovered that besides the spot he had just used to break the Array, there were actually two other breakable points.

And when he broke the Array through those two points, he arrived at other Arrays instead.

"The structure of the Arrays here is actually like a labyrinth. I just don’t know whether this Array has only a single exit, or whether all roads lead to the same place."

Chu Ning muttered softly, then said to Bai Ling:

"Just now I thought the Arrays here were quite interesting and was planning to break through them layer by layer.

Thinking about it now, that method may not work. Even if we really could break them all, who knows in what distant year that would be.

Here’s what we’ll do: I’ll stay here and wait. You go look for Zijin and bring her here.

Then you can go explore around and see where the final exit of this Array is."

"Yes, Master!"

Bai Ling answered at once and left. At this moment Chu Ning did not continue forward, and simply sat down on the ground, adjusting his breath while he waited for Bai Ling to find Cen Zijin.

After nearly an Hour had passed like this, a white shadow flashed, and Bai Ling’s figure reappeared.

Appearing together with her was Cen Zijin.

Cen Zijin had clearly already learned the general situation from Bai Ling. Upon seeing Chu Ning, she couldn’t help but ask curiously:

"Chu Ning, there are so many small Arrays inside this Array; have you ever heard of this kind of Array Formation Method?"

Chu Ning shook his head. "Among the Arrays I’ve come into contact with before, there are indeed methods of layering multiple Arrays.

But I’ve never seen anything like this, where dozens or even hundreds of Arrays are laid within a single grand Array. In the inheritance you obtained from your family, is there no record of this kind of thing?"

After Cen Zijin shook her head, Chu Ning said thoughtfully:

"Then it seems this Array is extremely complex, and it’s very likely that only this Nascent Soul Cultivator himself mastered it."

As he spoke, Chu Ning said to Bai Ling:

"Go have another look, and try to find where the final exit of this Array is."

"Alright. I circled around a few times while looking for you two just now, so I more or less have a feel for it.

It shouldn’t take long before I can find the exit."

With that, Bai Ling’s figure flashed and vanished.

This time Bai Ling did indeed return faster; in less than half an Hour she once again came back to the two of them.

At the same time, there was a hint of laughter in her tone.

"Master, I’ve found the exit of this Array. There are some very interesting things there—you’ll definitely be interested when you see them."
