<b>Chapter 79 – A Way to Break the Array</b>
The power of the Spiritual Talisman Array all depended on how it was arranged. Firstly, the grade of the basic Spiritual Talismans that were used to arrange the array. Secondly, the rank of the Array Pattern. Thirdly, the ability of the person who arranged the array. It could be said that all three of them were indispensable. However, as long as the one who arranged the array was skilled enough, then even if the first two conditions were relatively lacking, the power of the Spiritual Talisman Array was still extremely terrifying.
Ye Zhong had also cultivated the Spiritual Talisman Dao back then, and although he had walked down that path briefly, he still understood all the basic theories.
At this moment, the only way to forcefully break through these overlapping arrays was to figure out these three conditions. With Ye Zhong’s strength, he couldn’t destroy those Elementary Talismans one by one. As for finding the weakness of the overlapping arrays, that wasn’t a short period either. Therefore, the best way to break these Spiritual Talisman Arrays was to aim for Ling Yue.
As Ye Zhong retreated, his mind was frighteningly calm. His eyes flickered slightly, and a moment later, his sight fell upon the oil-cloth umbrella in Ling Yue’s hands, his eyes narrowed slightly.
If Ye Zhong was not mistaken, although Ling Yue’s skill was not weak at the moment, she was probably just a Level 1 Talisman Master. So, no matter how talented she was, it was impossible for her to use the Spiritual Talisman Arrays as she pleased. Simply put, if she wanted to activate the array, she would need a trigger. And this trigger would most likely be…
As Ling Yue spun the umbrella around, the rain got more and more terrifying. Ye Zhong’s eyes lit up. Ling Yue’s actions seemed casual, but it seemed to indicate something. Perhaps, the existence of the oil-cloth umbrella was like a trap, luring people who wanted to break the arrays. However, how could Ling Yue not know about this? Perhaps the most dangerous place would be the safest place.
The next moment, Ye Zhong waved his right hand, and the Kongming Sword appeared in his palm. He waved his left hand, and the Shura Sword Seal started rotating slowly like a shield. At the same time, Ye Zhong stomped on the ground and launched himself towards Ling Yue.
“High-grade Spirit Vessel? Our new Junior Brother’s ability is really beyond my imagination!” Ling Yue saw Ye Zhong charge towards her, and the Kongming Sword in his hand, which was exuding a terrifying pressure, but she smiled faintly. And then her slender right hand slowly reached out and grasped the curtain of rain in the bamboo forest. In an instant, countless drops of rain rapidly gathered in one place, and these raindrops swirl in the air, and in just a breath’s time, they formed into a long spear about a dozen feet long, like a scaled dragon soaring out of the sea, and floating towards Ye Zhong with incomparable ferocity.
When the two extremely terrifying attacks collided, waves after waves of Spiritual Power fluctuated and spread out in all directions.
Amid the collision, Ye Zhong was pushed back step by step. It was obvious that Ye Zhong could not withstand the overlapping arrays by himself.
However, the moment the Shura Sword Seal broke, Ye Zhong suddenly let go of his hand, and the Kongming Sword flew out. Ling Yue was slightly stunned by his action, as he rushed towards her while sticking closely to the side of the terrifying collision.
Ling Yue subconsciously threw the umbrella in her hand to the side. Ye Zhong’s goal aim was not the umbrella, but to get close to Ling Yue in an instant. His right index finger was already pointing at her throat.
The dense Sword Intent that was emitted from the tip of her finger caused Ling Yue to be slightly startled. A moment later, she laughed bitterly, “What a great skill!”
Ye Zhong’s goal from the beginning was the umbrella in her hands, and that was correct. However, at the last moment, Ye Zhong gave up on dealing with the trigger —the umbrella and targeted the person who arranged the array, Ling Yue herself instead.
This move by him was a stroke of genius. Even with Ling Yue’s wisdom, she hadn’t noticed it before. Therefore, she could only bitterly smile at this moment.
Not only was Ye Zhong not bad, but the most important thing about him was his decisiveness and sharpness in battle. Even the elders of the Xingxiang Sect might not be able to match him. She still couldn’t discern exactly how he trained to achieve such skills.
“Now, it should be considered my victory, right? Senior Sister Ling Yue?” Ye Zhong looked through the veil at Ling Yue’s blurry face and spoke plainly. A chilling Sword Intent emanated from his fingertips. If this Senior Sister Ling Yue was prepared to go back on her words, he would not mind using more ruthless methods.
Ling Yue was silent for a moment before sighing softly. With a light wave of her hand, the raindrops dissipated into the air, and the bamboo forests slowly disappeared as well. Finally, a rather spacious hall appeared before Ye Zhong’s eyes.
Ling Yue was straightforward. After admitting defeat, she directly undid the powerful and mighty overlapping arrays of her.
“Since I’ve won, Senior Sister Ling Yue should still remember the agreement, right?” Ye Zhong replied flatly.
“Why are you in such a hurry?” Ling Yue glanced at Ye Zhong with a smile that was not a smile on her face. She then walked to the chair at the side of the hall and sat down gracefully, gesturing for Ye Zhong to sit down.
Ye Zhong frowned for a moment before he followed and sat down, gazing at Senior Sister Ling Yue with slightly strange eyes.
Their eyes met, and after a moment of silence, Ling Yue suddenly smiled sweetly, “Junior Brother Ye Zhong, I suddenly want to ask you for a favour.”
Ye Zhong frowned, but after a while, he nodded and said, “Please speak, Senior Sister.”
“Right now, I have a high-rank Sect Mission, but I can’t complete it alone. According to the mission’s requirements, this will require at least five Inner Disciples of our Xingxiang Sect to work together to complete it, and the reward for this mission is 50,000 Spirit Value points per person.” Ling Yue said softly.
“50,000 Spirit Value points per person?” Ye Zhong’s pupils contracted slightly. Honestly speaking, even with his current wealth, he could ignore such a large sum of Spirit Value. It’s just that…
However, before Ye Zhong opened his mouth to refuse, Ling Yue smiled once again, “Oh right, let me tell you one more thing. Your Five-leaf Yin-Yang Flower is related to this mission. Or rather, unless you participate in my mission, you won’t be able to obtain the Yin-Yang Flower by yourself even if you know about its whereabouts. That place is not a good place to go…”
“Where is it?” Ye Zhong frowned.

Ling Yue smiled faintly and just gazed at Ye Zhong with a slightly strange gaze, before saying softly a moment later, “Hongya Cave!”
Ye Zhong looked at Ling Yue’s current expression. After pondering for a moment, he slowly said: “Senior Sister Ling Yue, please tell me in detail.”
