Everyone looked in her direction. Soon, there was some movement.
“A Qi spirit is coming.” Ximen Feng said and stood beside Kong Xiang Yi.
“What is a Qi spirit?” Jing Huan asked. Have they ever heard of it before?
“It’s a special kind of creature. I can’t explain it to you now.” Ximen Feng replied. “Listen to this movement, quite a few came this time. All the lightning attribute spirit masters are somewhat exhausted. It’s better for us to leave now.”
“But, we can’t go out.” Big Wei said.
“Master Big Wei, what did you say?”
“When we entered here, we entered an array.” Big Wei said. “We can’t go out without breaking the array.”
“Then what should we do?”
“What else can you do? We can only go forward!” Han Miao Shuang replied.
“But our spirit power attacks are useless. They only get absorbed.”
“That wouldn’t work.” Big Wei said. “Hold on for a moment. We’ll break this array.”
“Okay.”
Sima You Yue led the several lightning attribute spirit masters to the entrance of the passage and attacked the incoming Qi spirits. The first batch of spirits were destroyed. But two lightning attribute spirit masters exhausted their spirit powers.
“Let us help!”
The two spirit masters quickly retreated, and another two spirit masters stepped in. They condensed their spirit powers to attack the Qi spirits.
This time, the two persisted for a long time. Even so, they still weren’t able to withstand until Big Wei and Little Wei broke the array.
At the same time, there were movements in the other passages.
“Darn it, Qi spirits from other passages are coming!”
“What should we do? We can’t just attack them!”
“Let me try.” Fan Lei waved his hand. A spirit ward enclosed the entire stone room.
“It’s no use. Normally, a spirit ward can only block ordinary creatures. It cannot block creatures like Qi spirits.” Big Wei stood up, and quickly launched attacks in various places in the room and condensed spirit power to draw the array lines. Then he placed down the last spirit stone at his feet.
When the last array stone was placed, the formation immediately lit up and blocked at the Qi spirits outside.
Sima You Yue watched as Big Wei set up the array. Her eyes brighten. His method of arranging an array was very strange. The array was simple but effective. He arranged the array in a few breaths of time and this speed surprised her.
“This array can temporarily resist for a while. You can go recover your spirit powers. After we break it, we still have to face a tough fight.” After Big Wei finished, he squatted besides Little Wei and continued to discuss the array.
“But we don’t have lightning attribute spirit power recovery pills. We don’t usually prepare a lot of these special types of pills.” Someone answered.
Wind, lightning, and ice attributes were different from the other attributes. Normal spirit power recovery pills work for the five basic attributes, but for these special attributes, they wouldn’t.
Lightning attribute spirit power recovery pills were few to begin with, so normally people would have even less of it.
Sima You Yue took out a bottle of pills and passed to them without any pills. “Use mine.”
“Thank you.”
After taking the pill, those people went aside to meditate and restore their spirit power.
Sima You Yue squatted beside Big Wei and them and studied the array with them.
Han Miao Shuang munched on pre-prepared meat that Sima You Yue made, while Jiang Jun Zhe leaned on Su Xiao Xiao to sleep.
Kong Xiang Yi, Jing Wen and the others learned of the Qi spirit, and understood why the more they attacked, the more powerful the spirit beasts are. It turned out they were not ordinary spirit beasts.
They learned that besides the lightning attribute, the other type of spirit power did not work. They were discouraged. It didn’t matter how strong they were, they had became a burden.
Sima You Yue examined Big Wei’s sketch on the ground. She found them to be familiar. She recalled the book Wu Lingyu gave her which it was similar to, but she couldn’t pinpoint which one.
As a result, she let Little Spirit scan the whole book, and finally found the same exact array.
“It’s still not possible.” Big Wei deduced the array again and sighed. “There is no complete record of this array. We can’t deduce these ancient arrays.”
“Is there no solution?” Fan Lei was discouraged when he heard Big Wei, aside.
“Can’t be. Perhaps there are other ways.” Little Wei glanced at Sima You Yue.
Sima You Yue was still in a daze and did not notice Little Wei looking at her.
“I know how to break it.” After understanding the array, she turned around and walked around the room. She pointed at a small bump in the corner. “This is where the array can be broken.”
“Here?” Big Wei looked at the small bump, and then at the array he deduced, and then follow with prompt calculations.
“Yes! That is it!” Little Wei exclaimed first.
“Of course, of course!” Big Wei looked at Sima You Yue enigmatically.
“If the array is broken yet?” Fan Lei asked them.
“Yes, it’s broken.” Little Wei said.
“Let’s wait for a while before breaking it.” Big Wei glanced at those in the midst of recovering their spirit power. “I can arrange the array method by then and wait for their recovery. That way, I have a better grasp than rushing.”
“That’s fine.” Fan Lei said.
Sima You Yue looked at the passages filled with spirit beasts, and then those who have yet to recover their spirit power. It would be difficult for them to rush out now.
Others also knew that even if they knew the method to break the array, no one showed off an expression of ease.
She came before Su Xiao Xiao and them and sat on the floor. “I told you not to come. But you insist on coming, not you’re all trapped here.”
Han Miao Shuang finished the last bit of meat. She took out a handkerchief and wiped her hands. “Hey, little junior brother, ever since coming under the tutelage of master, this is the first time I encountered such a dangerous thing. It’s really exciting!”
“Exciting? Aren’t you worried you won’t be able get out?” SimaYou Yue looked at her wordlessly.
“What’s there to worry about.” Han Miao Shuang retorted. “Although it’s dangerous, you’re not anxious or worried. You’re not afraid, I am also not afraid.”
“….” Sima You Yue saw her calm face. After a while, she replied, “Thank you for trusting me. You are more confident in me than yourself.”
“That’s it.” Han Miao Shuang examined her spatial ring for a moment and didn’t find what she wanted to eat. “Little junior brother, do you have some spirit fruits?”
“…” Sima You Yue handed her some spirit fruits. She couldn’t help but sighed in her heart.
However, she did not fully believe they weren’t worried because of her. They must have their own methods.
